Chapter 61 - Old George
"Uncle George, what do you think of the two ideas I just offered?"
At this very moment, Annie is in Beverly Hills, in the garden of a Mediterranean-style villa, drinking afternoon tea with an elderly man in his fifties, with gray hair and elegant appearance, enjoying the leisurely afternoon sun in California .
The old housekeeper Nord sat quietly under another parasol in the garden, drinking coffee in small sips.
Ke Ke seemed to be having fun alone, running wildly on the huge garden lawn, having a great time playing alone, with a few maids behind her, carefully protecting her, so there was no need to worry about any danger she might encounter .
Therefore, Anne can relax and talk about some things with old George in front of her.
During this period, Annie told this old man named 'George' some ideas she had heard from Kim Hyun-tae about the United States' involvement in the Vietnam-French War and the rectification of the Japanese, and then asked This old man, let's see what he thinks of these two ideas.
George Bree, a famous American politician in parallel time and space? Member of the ruling family, born in Texas, Caucasian male, 55 years old, current California state legislator, affiliated to the four major American political parties in parallel time and space? One of the political factions is definitely the radical "Federal Renaissance Society", and its faction has shown some attitudes, intending to start the general election next year and seek the presidency.
Old George is the only candidate elected by his faction to participate in the presidential election.
Anne's father had a good relationship with George Sr., and had always supported her to pursue a political path. After Anne took control of the entire family, she still followed the lineage, and protected and maintained this friendly relationship with George Sr.
Of course, George has also given Anne and her family a lot of rewards, and both parties have been very happy to cooperate so far.
Now that old George wants to seek the presidency, a funder like Anne is of course very important to him.
So, when Anne's old housekeeper, Nord, called George's secretary and asked if he had time, the old George immediately turned down everything and made the whole day free to arrange a meeting with Annie. son.
Originally thought that Annie was looking for herself, and there might be some places where she needed to contribute. In politics? Governance provides some convenience and help.
Unexpectedly, after Annie met with herself, she actually gave herself two ideas.
Well!
Although Annie's intentions are still unclear, George thinks the two ideas she mentioned are quite interesting.
Although it sounded a bit whimsical for a while, after careful scrutiny, Old George keenly realized that if these two ideas can be implemented, the success rate seems to be very high.
Therefore, George also had to put away his attitude that he didn't really care about, and became serious.
"Annie, I have to say that the two ideas you gave me sound naive and ridiculous at first. But after I thought about it carefully, I found that if it can be implemented, the success rate is quite high. .”
George didn't lie, after all, he really thought about it in his heart.
Although George is a politician? Political figures generally do not tell the truth in front of the public, except for showing off, they just say some "fake and empty" words, but for "his own" Anne, George will not say that kind of hypocritical lies.
"Did you come up with this yourself? Hehe, good boy, are you trying to help Uncle George? I really thank you. I will talk to other people about these two ideas. I think these two This idea is very good, and it can become a platform for my general election next year."
Yes, George not only sees the possibility of success of these two ideas, but also sees the opportunity to reap the benefits in the process of implementing these two ideas.
And now the international situation in the United States is very bad,
Being suppressed everywhere by the Soviet Union during the 'Cold War', and at the same time, the Japanese began to move around and wanted to get rid of the United States. This tells everyone that the situation in the United States has begun to deteriorate.
So, if the United States does not show any attitude, wouldn't it be tantamount to telling the countries of the world that the Americans can't do it.
Do not!
This kind of thing must not happen.
Those guys in the Conservative Party are just plain incompetent and stupid, and that's what got America where it is now.
Even the Japanese, who were cleaned up by the United States during World War II and became honest, are now riding on the neck of the United States to dominate, which is simply unbearable.
So, now America needs to change.
The conservatives in power now also need to be overthrown.
Those conservative guys have held the presidency of the White House for decades since the end of World War II, so some changes are needed now, right?
George sees farther than Annie, and thinks more than Annie.
These are things that Anne has not considered.
Of course, here we have to mention, that is, the four major political parties in the United States in parallel time and space, as well as the political environment and system here, which are different from another time and space.
In another time and space, there were only two political parties in the United States.
But in this time and space, there are four political parties, including two conservatives, one neutral, and one radical.
And because of the attitude of the conservatives who generally hoped for peace after World War II, they have frequently won presidential elections since then and pursued extreme conservative policies.
And as the conservatives have won year after year, those who have won the presidential election for decades, and those who can become president are also those who have been introduced by the conservatives.
Therefore, this allows the policies of the conservatives to continue to be implemented.
Originally, the policies of the conservatives were fine, but under the current international situation, it seems a bit ineffective.
The radicals see opportunities, but suffer from no good policy direction.
After all, being suppressed by conservatives for decades, some elites either joined the conservatives, or quit politics altogether? To rule the circle, so the radicals can be said to have withered talents, and there are not many people who can show their talents.
Moreover, most of the radicals, except for some politicians with radical views, are active or retired generals and military officers. You can let them fight wars, but they are not good enough to use their brains and put on a show.
Originally, the camp that George and the others belonged to wanted to come up with a platform to attract the people when they participated in the presidential election next year, and at the same time, they would start to build momentum this year, but Old George and the others hadn't thought of what platform and slogan to use.
But Annie's appearance gave George a surprise.
war!
That's right, it's war!
Through war, the radicals can start to gain power, and at the same time, the arms dealers who support the radicals can get rich. Only when these people get rich will they have more funds to support their own camp.
More importantly, as Anne said, the United States has not fought a war for decades, and the combat effectiveness of the army can be said to have basically ceased to exist now, which is just a look.
Therefore, it is very necessary to train the army through a war and explore newer and better tactics.
At the same time, a war can also consume a large amount of old stockpiles of arms, which kills two birds with one stone.
hey-hey!
You can also get rich in silence.
As for how many people will die in the war... who cares.
What's more, the people in the United States now also need the country to show a tough side. They always look like they are not accepted in the international arena. They are bullied by the Soviet Union and even insulted by the defeated enemy Japan. The people can't explain it anywhere. .
You know, the faction you belong to has done some investigations in private, and found that the people are very dissatisfied with the policies implemented by the United States.
Therefore, the two ideas that Annie is talking about now can be used as her own campaign platform, and at the same time, she can show herself a "tough man" side to win the support of the people, as well as chaebols or companies who are interested in this.
Old George, who had considered these issues in a short period of time, looked at Anne with aggressive brilliance in his eyes, as if he was looking at the angel of the Annunciation.
Ha ha!
No, she is the Annunciation Angel, not like.
"Uncle George, I didn't come up with this idea, but a teenager who was still in high school."
Annie pushed Kim Hyun-tae out without losing the opportunity.
In fact, this is also the purpose of Anne looking for George, otherwise she would not look for George.
To be honest, as a woman, Anne is concerned with politics? Zhi has little interest, and doesn't even pay much attention at all.
This is due to nature, most women don't like to touch politics? Governance, compared to politics? Governance, pay more attention to how good some brand-name clothing, luxury goods, and cosmetics are.
"Oh, there are such young people?"
Hearing Anne say that these two ideas were actually thought up by a young man, the light in George's eyes became even brighter.
Possessing this kind of extraordinary strategic conception, although still a little immature, is the most lacking and most desired talent in this camp.
Although the other party is a high school student, what does it matter?
It's better to be young, and have a bigger and broader room for improvement, right?
If such a person is drawn into one's own camp and taught well, the future development is absolutely limitless.
At the same time, his own camp is also at a time when there is a shortage of talents.
"Really, it's a young man. It's better to be young. Young people are more active than us old people, and their ideas are more flexible. I can't think of such an idea. If there is a chance, I would like to meet this man." Young man, don't you know that I have this opportunity and honor?"
George first expressed his feelings, then he was modest, and finally asked what he wanted to ask the most.
It was impossible for Anne not to understand that this was George asking himself if he would have a chance to meet this young man, to see him for himself.
It is obvious that old George has a heart for Kim Hyun-tae mentioned by Anne.
How could Anne not know about this.
In Anne's view, this is an opportunity. If Kim Hyun-tae can get into the eyes of old George, then after he finds a way to make Kim Hyun-tae enter the political arena in the future, besides himself, old George can also provide him with a lot of help.
This is a great thing.
So how could Annie refuse.
"I think there will be a chance, and it won't be long."
Annie's words were equivalent to telling old George that she would arrange a suitable time and a suitable place for him to meet this young man.
So after getting the exact answer from Anne, Old George shifted his attention.
"I will make a proposal about intervening in the Vietnam-French War, but it is unlikely that the Congress will pass it, but I still want to give it a try. After all, some people in our country need to stand up and change the current situation. Even if there is a price to pay in the process of this change, I think it is worth it.”
Old George's words are easy to understand. In fact, he told Anne that he would take Anne's idea to Congress and try hard.
At the same time, because Annie heard from Kim Hyun-tae that once it intervened in the Vietnam-French War, the United States was likely to suffer a military defeat.
However, although the United States has failed militarily, it can obtain some unimaginable benefits through this war.
Anne also mentioned all these to Old George.
The old George's words are to tell Anne that in order to change the current American political arena and international image, the price of killing some people or suffering some failures is acceptable.
Anne couldn't help nodding when she heard Old George's words, obviously she also agreed with Old George's point of view.
Um!
Let's go to war, so that your arms company can earn huge profits, get more orders, and develop newer weapons.
Indeed, how could Annie, who controlled one of the three largest arms companies in the United States, not understand the rewards that war can bring her, after all, she can make money.
"I will also use my channels and relationships to contribute to this matter. At the same time, I think the two companies, American Arms and Texas Arms, should also contribute."
After thinking for a while, Annie responded to Old George.
Hearing this, Old George smiled and nodded, he knew what Annie meant.
It's very simple, contact those companies that can benefit from the war as long as the war occurs, and let them mobilize their power to influence the congressmen and gentlemen.
