Chapter 2826: Anxiety

The hall of the mansion now looks like an old-era modern ballroom in movies and TV dramas, with ribbons flying all over the sky. It also looks like a noisy wedding scene. Cold fireworks shoot straight to the roof, while the men and women in costumes are dancing in the sky. Warm hugs and dancing among the ribbons and confetti.

As soon as Feng Yiping and the others entered the door, they heard a "bang" in the noisy background. Kidman immediately got into Feng Yiping's arms, but this time, she really wasn't acting—— She was really frightened.

Feng Yiping calmly touched the water stains on his face and smelled it. Well, it was quite sour. He patted the head of the female star in his arms, "This is champagne for celebration."

The reason why he was so calm was because his reaction was relatively slow in such a noisy situation, and he saw that Owen and the others were still very relaxed when they heard such a noise - then nothing would happen.

In fact, there was no need for him to explain anything at this time. A guy who was so excited that he took off his suit, only wearing a shirt and a crooked tie, shook a bottle of champagne in his hand, and ran past them while shouting, followed by Several equally forgetful men and women.

This scene looks a bit like a scene from a decadent private dinner in Hollywood.

Kidman stood up straight in Feng Yiping's arms, "Are we victorious?"

Feng Yiping looked at the group of people dancing wildly together on the platform on the second floor. He recognized that several of them were members of Xiao Aohei's campaign team, "Yes."

Although the results of the votes in some places have not yet come out at this time, the de facto presidential winner may have already emerged.

Because the U.S. presidential election is not a direct election as some people think. It implements the Electoral College system. The U.S. president is not directly elected by voters, but is elected by the Electoral College selected by state parliaments.

When voters cast their ballots today, they not only have to choose among the presidential candidates, but also 538 electors representing the 50 states and the District of Columbia - which corresponds to 100 Senate seats, 435 House of Representatives seats, and Peanutton District of Columbia has 3 seats to form the Electoral College.

The Electoral College vote must be based on the results of the state, that is, the party supported by more than half of the people in the state.

Except for Maine and Nebraska, all other states in the United States implement a winner-take-all system. Therefore, as long as it is determined that a majority of votes have been obtained in some states where the counting has ended, then It is certain to win all of the state’s electoral votes.

As long as one party has more than 270 electoral votes, that is, more than half of the total 538 electoral votes, it is a de facto (not legal) victory.

This is not difficult to say. For example, California and New York, the two representative states in the western and eastern United States, have 55 and 31 electoral votes respectively. Illinois, where little O'Hei started, also has 21. Pennsylvania, next to New York, also has 21, Florida, 27...

As long as Little O'Hei has won these places and has more than 270 votes, then the victory or defeat of other sparsely populated small states actually doesn't matter.

"We are victorious, we are victorious!" Kidman threw away the wine glass and covered her head with her hands, looking like she couldn't believe it.

"Yes," Feng Yiping said again.

He was also a little emotional.

He didn't know when Xiao Aohei knew that he had won. He only knew that this time, Xiao Aohei could say that he won very easily.

My support and investment over the past few years have finally paid off.

That is to say, from this moment on, you don’t have to worry about your business in the United States. You don’t have to worry about the strategies you want to implement, and you don’t have to worry about some American institutions coming to hinder you. Don’t underestimate even the separation of powers. Next, the energy of the President of the United States.

"We are victorious," Kidman let go of the hand covering her head, held Feng Yiping's face, and kissed him on the face with joy, followed by Feng's preferred method, lip to lip.

But this actually turned out to be a bit different. Feng Yiping liked it physically, but resisted it psychologically... After a series of complicated inner activities, he finally did not choose to return the favor, even though in this festive day, people everywhere It was a scene of hugging and kissing. Such actions were not eye-catching. Although Kidman seemed not to care about what he just did. He took another glass of wine to Kidman from the side and said, "For victory!"

Tofu always has to be eaten.

As a man, he is very magnanimous and tolerant in this regard.

"For victory!" Kidman raised her glass with a blush, and the glasses clinked together.

At this time, some people in the hall rushed toward the middle. Feng Yiping knew that the young O'Hei couple had not returned to Chicago at this time, so the people gathered in the middle must be members of his team. core characters.

He just knew it couldn't be Buchanan.

The group of people quickly arrived in front of them. The leader was Feng Yiping, who was somewhat familiar. He was Sandberg's mentor. He had a big head and a thick neck. According to some domestic experience, he looked a bit like Summers, a cook.

But Summers's state at this time was different from his usual state when he visited Feng Yi in the office of NEXTDOOR Park. He walked with a windy look, his eyes were stern, and when he shook hands with everyone, he had the aura of the protagonist. He looks somewhat like he did when he was the Minister of Finance.

He saw Feng Yiping standing there leisurely with a glass of wine, and was stunned for a moment, but he was not happy. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Kidman next to him, "Nicole, you are always so radiant."

Kidman took back the hand he held, "We won, didn't we?"

"Yes," Summers said loudly to Kidman and the people around him, "The latest news is that we have obtained more than 300 electoral votes,"

"Yeah!" A lot of people cheered.

They expressed their happiness to the core figure of Obama's campaign team without any concealment.

"The president-elect and his wife are on their way to Chicago,"

The huge excitement and the enthusiasm of the people around him made Summers, who had been away from the political circle for a while, a little proud. Now he used the loose title of "president-elect", "Nicole, are you ready? Tonight, you will go on stage with them to announce the good news to the whole country,"

This is also one of the reasons why Kidman came here today, "Yes, I'm ready,"

"Then please continue to enjoy this happy party, we'll see you later," Summers said goodbye to Kidman, and then talked to Feng Yiping, "Feng, I didn't expect you to be here too,"

At this time, the people who were originally around him, seeing that he and Feng Yiping seemed to be having a deep conversation, had consciously dispersed, but Kidman was still standing aside.

Feng Yiping gently swirled the wine in his hand, looking at Summers who seemed to be in power at this time, "Accident? Don't you know that I arrived yesterday? It shouldn't be, Summers,"

Summers' face turned cold. As one of the core figures of Obama's campaign team, he certainly knew what happened yesterday, and this was precisely the reason why he was more afraid of Feng Yiping.

Joining Obama's team was a huge adventure in his life. He didn't want the result of this adventure to be that his position in the professional field would be replaced by another person.

How could a person like him be willing to be just a facade?

From the campaign to now, especially in the final stage, he felt that Obama's reliance on Feng Yiping on economic issues was getting deeper and deeper. He even accepted the proposal of temporarily interrupting the campaign at the last critical moment and returning to the capital to discuss with all walks of life how to deal with the financial crisis. The most uncomfortable thing was that such a strategy actually had a very good effect...

This made him feel a huge threat.

In particular, he actually knew that even in terms of macroeconomic issues, he would not be stronger than the young man in front of him.

On a day like today, the last person he wanted to see was someone like Feng Yiping.

He tilted his head to the outside, meaning that Feng Yiping should go outside with him.

Feng Yiping didn't even bother to pay attention to his action, just pretending not to see it. Who are you, and who am I?

If you were a beauty like Kidman, I might consider it.

"This champagne is good," he said.

Summers' face suddenly turned the color of liver.
