1875 It’s Another Birthday

October 10th is another birthday.

Birthdays are very important days for most young people.

On the contrary, those elderly people don't like celebrating birthdays very much.

They still insist on celebrating birthdays for several reasons. Sometimes celebrating birthdays is no longer just a birthday.

Lynch's young body contains a mature soul. In fact, he has not thought about his birthday very much in the past two years.

He has enough status, reputation, and strength that he no longer needs to celebrate his birthday to spread his influence.

But some people really hope that he can celebrate his birthday, which also involves some other interests.

At around eight o'clock in the morning, Penny came downstairs wearing a nice outfit.

while still playing with her earrings.

Not many people from the political and business circles invited by Lynch today came. Due to the war and the influx of large amounts of foreign capital, Lynch had nothing particularly important to do that required them to come. They could hide if they could.

Of course, gifts still need to be delivered. People don’t have to come, it’s because of something else.

It would be really rude if people don't come and don't come with gifts.

So this year's invitation list was left to Penny to arrange. After a brief discussion with Lynch, she came up with a fairly acceptable list of invitees.

On the list is the more deadly "Interview with Politicians," a new category of politicians that is rising rapidly.

They are different from the politicians of the previous federation. Many of these people have never held any great power.

Whether within the party or outside the party.

But they are very good at self-promotion and packaging. They will list some true and false qualifications and put them on the table to make people think that they are relatively well-known politicians.

Their job is to participate in various TV interview programs, talk shows, and participate in various political forums and social forums, wherever they can show their faces.

In this way, they can easily package themselves as "well-known politicians" and appear more in people's sight.

The media also needs them. There are things that real, old-school politicians dare not say, but they dare to say them.

The people also need them. They need them to interpret some policy changes for the people in some popular or even vulgar ways, so that they can at least understand what is happening.

Such politicians are very likable and have a base of voters, but their purpose is not really to do anything, but to gain prestige and wealth.

A few of the best of these people were also invited, and then there were some big capitalists who had cooperative relationships with Lynch, and several representatives of scholars and experts from Lynch's laboratories.

Some newsmakers, some people in the entertainment industry, and key members of the new crew.

To attend a birthday party, you have to walk on the red carpet, and there is a huge amount of media following you throughout.

Social attention and extremely high exposure are almost becoming Penny's repertoire!

Every year, many new people want to make their debut by attending birthday parties. This is not a joke or a joke, it is the most true portrayal!

The entire event venue was divided into two parts, one for the guests invited by Lynch, and the other for the guests invited by Penny, after Lynch had said hello and chatted.

They will go to the other side together, trying not to leave anyone out.

Since the morning, she has been supervising people who specialize in party-related services to set up the venue.

The first time she did something like this, she was a little unsure of what to do.

Now, it becomes very simple.

After lunch, we took a short rest and took a nap. At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the red carpet was rolled out.

Reporters outside the manor crowded both sides of the red carpet, with cameras, cameras, microphones...

Awards night has never been as lively as today!

Because not only reporters from entertainment media or special topics came, but also many from finance, society, technology and other topics.

The first to arrive are often those with lower status and those from the entertainment industry.

They were already thankful that they could come, so naturally they wouldn't feel resentful about being left out for a long time.

The higher a person stands, the more he understands the importance of gratitude.

It wasn't until after five o'clock that the heavyweights began to appear.

Some glamorous politicians, big capitalists who had worked with Lynch, and representatives of the six major banks also appeared at around six o'clock.

This directly set off a small climax!

You must know that these federal bankers rarely attend such private but very public occasions.

Even if it is the President's celebration ceremony or some banquet, they will basically not attend.

Appearing together this time really shocked everyone.

Compared with the confusion of entertainment reporters, financial reporters roughly know the reason - billions of bad debts!

And this also reflects from the side how rich Lynch is!

At 6:55, the last distinguished guest arrived, the short old gentleman, the former chairman of the Federal Progressive Party Committee.

Lynch also appropriately distanced himself from him. Although the old man had left the core of political power, his political life did not end.

This may be the first time in the past two years that the old man has appeared in front of the public in such a high-profile manner, and he has a smile on his face.

When people reach this stage, they actually want to be in the spotlight. This is a completely different change from the past.

He waved to everyone and quickly walked down the red carpet. After shaking hands with Lynch at the end, he said a little sigh of relief.

"It's been more than half a year, and I'm finally going to be on the front page again!"

It's a little self-deprecating humor that the Federation loves.

What he meant was that the eyes that people had been looking at him in the past half year had all shifted away because he had completely left that position.

But now because of Lynch, he has begun to attract attention again. On the one hand, he is self-deprecating at the neglect he has received after losing power, and on the other hand, he is also mocking the superficial understanding of the outside world. Of course, more of it is actually praising Lynch.

After all, it was Lynch who brought him back into the limelight.

It seems like it is just a little humor, but it can reflect the different psychological and emotional changes of the elderly at different times!

Lin Qi also looked at the old man's female companion with a smile and said, "I hope they are not discussing your private life!"

The old man was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. He patted Lynch on the arm, "You underestimate me!"

As the last guest to arrive, the entire red carpet process was considered over.

The reporters outside the door began to pack their things, but some of them did not intend to leave now.

They would go around and choose some places with good angles to take pictures of what was happening in the manor.

In the first half of the year, there was news that an entertainment newspaper reporter accidentally fell down and died after climbing a tree to take secret photos. It was obviously a sad thing, but I don’t know why many people always felt relieved after watching it.

As the four of them (Lin Qi, his female companion, and the old man and his female companion) walked inside, the old man said, "I still want to thank you for that. He couldn't come for some reason, so he asked me to tell him that he is also very grateful to you. .”

The old man was talking about Gladstone. Although it seemed that Lynch was taking advantage of others, there was nothing wrong with what he did.

This is one of the biggest features of federal society. In a utilitarian society, when morality is not enough to cause a tsunami, no one can kidnap it.

In an election campaign, Lynch will lean towards whoever offers the higher price. This is normal and there is nothing to blame.

It's like at an auction, you can't not allow others to continue bidding just because you have bid once. This is obviously unreasonable.

With a relatively "cheap" chip, Lynch was traded to them first. This in itself was a deal that both parties thought was suitable.

The gratitude of the old man and Gladstone was not entirely because of the deal, but because Lynch made the choice first.

In fact, many people have difficulty choosing. When they make choices, they often focus on certain people.

In addition, the "York Gang" also needs to be thanked for their support of Gladstone's work after he came to power.

After chatting with the old man for a while, Lynch left.

As the hostess of today's birthday party, Penny will entertain the female companions brought by others. This is also her main job.

Lynch walked over to the "York Gang" side.

The York Gang's power in Congress has once again expanded with the addition of the governor. Currently, five senators, including himself, and more than 20 representatives have gathered around Senator Langdon.

Even in Congress, this is a force that cannot be ignored.

Seeing Lynch coming, everyone stopped talking in time. Senator Langdon came up to him with a smile, took the initiative to shake hands with Lynch, and then introduced the new senators and congressmen to him.

The short old man standing not far away calmly watched everything happening here. He was actually very concerned about Lynch. In ten years, he went from being an ordinary high school student with no background in Sabine City.

He has developed to the point where the top leaders of the federation must pay attention to him. He has developed too fast, so fast that the media calls him - "The Miracle Boy!"

And he also believes that with the current development of the situation, the power and strength of Lynch's group will only become more and more terrifying!

But he doesn't really care. He has left that position and doesn't need to worry about balancing the factions within the party or the nastiness among the congressmen.

He is just an ordinary old man who should enjoy his mediocre life.

The young congressman had a look of admiration and reverence on his face, and he humbly bent down to shake hands with Lynch.

The mature senator smiled reservedly and stared at Lynch when he was talking to him. When Lynch looked at him, he lowered his head slightly in time to avoid Lynch's gaze.

People standing in the distance all saw this scene, and countless emotions in their hearts were intertwined and rolling, and finally turned into smiles like spring breeze!
