America started its counterattack from the bum

Chapter 441 shows the cruelty of the decision-making of the interest group leaders

Fidel felt a dreamlike trance about having a private meeting with a big shot like Barak.

But Wolfe's reminder helped him regain consciousness in time.

"You will probably have to deal with people like them in the future, but you have to be careful. You can be their person on the surface, but we pay for your support."

It is Wolf’s personal pursuit to personally participate in politics as the vice president of the California Elephant Party Grand Committee.

But looking deeper, supporting politicians like Cote, Crusoe and Fidel as pawns is what Mr. Cheng and Wolf are more concerned about.

After all, politicians like Niu Sen, Nancy, and Black Satan are capable of negotiating prices in the process of bargaining with them, and this ability is very strong.

When a tool is sufficiently irreplaceable, its price will increase. For capital parties that value efficiency, such price increase will be abominable.

When capital buys off politicians, it starts by buying policies, then buying laws, and finally, at the extreme level, it strips away the irreplaceable nature of the tool itself and buys the tool directly.

This is the extreme stage of development in which capital representing economic power erodes political power under the capitalist order.

This is what Wolfe and Cheng did.

"Yes, Mr. Wolfe, I will never forget it," Fidel said humbly.

Wolfe smiled and said nothing.

He was somewhat unhappy with Cheng's decision to invest in the California Gang and the progressive wing of the Donald Trump Party.

Putting aside other things, would people like Niu Sen, Nancy, and Black Satan just sit back and watch their pawns grow up in their own factions?

It's simply that Mr. Cheng's pawns are too insignificant now, and the promised benefits are tempting enough, so it's not time to fall out yet.

Soon, Barak finished interacting with supporters and fans in the venue and came to the reception room of the hotel's luxury suite.

"Sorry for the wait, Wolfe."

Mr. Dracula signaled that all irrelevant people should leave. Barak did not object, so his entourage left.

Only then did Wolfe begin to talk about the real conditions.

"We can give you, Nancy, and Niu Sen a total of $30 million next year, on the condition that he becomes a member of the House of Representatives."

The opening offer is 30 million, this is the ambition of Mr. Cheng and Wolf.

Thirty million to buy a seat in the Human Empire House of Representatives.

At this moment, Fidel could hear the sound of his blood flowing in his veins, no, it was the sound of his heart beating rapidly.

Thirty million, if calculated based on the price of buying lives, if one hundred thousand dollars per person, can buy the lives of three hundred people.

Assuming each Bangladeshi/Indian costs $20,000, you can buy 1,500 people.

Can fifteen hundred living lives push one person to sit on Capitol Hill?

"Impossible, he's just an amateur, Wolfe, and my relationship with Nancy is not as good as you think."

Nancy holds an important position - the chairman of the Donald Trump Party's internal fundraising committee. Black Satan and she are in a cooperative relationship. Although they are both progressives, they are in positions where they sometimes clash with each other.

Wolfe and Mr. Cheng only told them that the money was given to them, but did not say how to divide it. Black Satan was not very satisfied.

"If we support his campaign, maybe ten million would be enough, Mr. Barak."

Running for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives is not too difficult. Not to mention ten million, even for Fidel, a political novice, five million bullets would be enough.

"This money is just pure support from us. It has nothing to do with Fidel's campaign. When he runs for election in the future, we will arrange additional campaign funds."

Thirty million was given out just to show sincerity.

The leader of the Dracula Group has such courage, and so does the unsung king of the California Elephant Party, Cheng Daiqi.

When money reaches a certain level, it's really just a number.

Spending money to buy influence is a daily routine for them.

Putting aside the complex motivations, the logic supporting their decision is simple - if you are unwilling to pay the price in normal times, then you will eventually become part of the price.

"Just to show support?"

Barak almost couldn't help laughing.

Pure Support

No, Wolfe, who are you kidding?
Can you believe the lies told by capitalists?
This is just like the family of the live-streaming host and the scumbag me, complete bullshit.

"Of course." Wolfe smiled.

Black Satan hesitated for a moment, but finally made up his mind.

The family of the live-streaming host is really willing to be deceived, and the person the scumbag wants to take advantage of will sometimes intentionally give them the opportunity.

When cooperation is beneficial to both parties, why not play dumb?
"How to divide?"

Barack is a mature politician and doesn't care at all whether his gesture of asking for money will be looked down upon.

Strength is everything. If you have strength, you can get the support of the financial backers. If you don’t have strength, no matter how hard you lick, it will be useless.

Fidel on the side couldn't understand why they could talk so easily.

That’s thirty million!

Barack is the former President of the United States!

Is this how you all play?

"Let me think about it. Forget it. 30 million is indeed a little too little. How about this? I will give you 30 million in campaign funds alone, but half of it must be used to support the Democratic Party candidate for the President of the United States next year. There is only one condition - he must meet me."

Provide money, resources, and the conditions are not excessive.

Financial sponsors like Wolf seem too good to be true, but this makes Barak even more wary.

There are two possibilities behind having nothing to ask for, for example - what you ask for is too big and it is difficult to say it easily.

“Thank you for your generosity!”

Barak is not afraid that Wolf’s demands are too great. He is the Black Satan, so how can he be afraid of capitalists?

If he had been a little weaker in mind, he wouldn't have come this far.

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

Heroes face off against heroes, both know the other's intentions are not simple, but it doesn't matter!
"As for him, if he wants to be a politician, he needs to have a campaign slogan that's powerful enough. What's his slogan?"

Barak looked at Fidel who was sitting next to him and asked.

"Mr. Barak, I used to be a public defender, and my slogan is related to this profession - opposing judicial elitism, high costs, and things like equal legal rights and limiting the power of the judiciary."

Black Satan nodded in surprise and asked further.

"What about the prosecutor's office?"

Fidel smiled slyly and replied obediently.

"I have more contact with the courts, and I am not very familiar with the procuratorate and don't understand it."

Wolfe finally understood that this kid was more than just gifted, he was extremely talented!

Simply put, the court convicts and the procuratorate initiates the conviction.

The power of the former is passive and secondary, while the power of the latter is active and even unlimited.

Black Satan nodded with satisfaction and chatted with Fidel about his career experience.

"Ha, I used to be a lawyer, and even taught at a law school for a few years. Which law school did you graduate from?"

Wolfe sat aside, listening to the conversation between the two calmly.
-
In a studio at the ABC Media Center, "West Coast Tonight" is being broadcast live.

"Okay, everyone, today we are going to talk about something different. You always say that my show only discusses vulgar content for people over 18 years old, but in fact, we are a serious talk show."

The host, Jon, sat behind the table, speaking in all seriousness nonsense that he himself did not believe.

In the current competitive environment in the United States, it is difficult to increase ratings without doing research on the lower level.

Why do people like to take unconventional approaches?
Because taking an unconventional approach really works!

“Tonight, we have invited the most controversial figure in the West Coast financial circle—Jia, the founder of the cryptocurrency project BEC!

He is a big liar who swindled 30 billion, he is a technology leader who bet with Rocket Horse on building cars, and he was once the helmsman of a media company worth hundreds of billions!
However, some time ago, he was investigated by NITA and LAPD, and the outside world once said that he would definitely die, but now, he came out alive and came to our stage. More importantly, the price of BEC has tripled from the bottom in the past three weeks! Triple!
Now, use your cheers to invite this legendary wealth thief up. Perhaps he will hear your enthusiasm and generously teach you some wealth magic tricks!"

The Legendary Wealth Thief

"cheer"

The Angsa people are like this. After all, their ancestors made their fortune by robbing, so they are too tolerant towards the prisoners.

What, you cheated tens of billions, okay, then can you teach us how you did it?

Why condemn him?
He didn't lie to Americans!

Accountant Jia took his seat with a smile on his face, and Jon teased.

"I heard you stayed in there for a month. How was your anus? Is it okay?"

The audience laughed evilly again, and Accountant Jia spoke confidently.

"You know, I'm Chinese, and I know Chinese Kung Fu. If it weren't for the fact that I like Big Bear, I might not want to come out!"

After saying this, Lao Jia was horrified and exclaimed in his heart: Wow!

He almost said that he liked "women" - this would be easier to be targeted in America than defrauding tens of billions.

You know, in this land, when astronauts are trapped in space and can't come back, the quickest way to get back is to say, 'People without dicks are women, and only women!'

"Oh, did you hear that, California bears? A super-rich man has invited you. Contact him on Jia's social media account - remember to bring your photos!"

Jon teased Accountant Jia for a bit and then began to introduce another character.

"The second guest tonight is Professor Chris, a computer expert from UCLA and the research director of the cryptocurrency research project at the Joel Dracula Institute!"

Chris was wearing a brown plaid T-shirt and black-framed glasses, looking like a typical American tech geek.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we have two agendas tonight. First, we will introduce to you the hottest but most risky financial investment project today - cryptocurrency.

Second, through the BEC investigation, everyone will have a clear understanding of cryptocurrency.”

Jon put his hand to his mouth, turned his face to the side, and spoke in a tone as if he was whispering to a friend.

"Guys, for the sake of your wallet and pension, this show is not to be missed!"

Lao Jia was laughing happily on the side.

At first, he was not very satisfied with Niu Sen's arrangement.

"West Coast Tonight" is a comedy interview. He felt that being on this show would affect his image and the value of BEC, but it was President Cheng who persuaded him to come.

Now it seems that I came to the right place.

Jon’s level is quite good. Even though the content of this episode doesn’t quite match the tone of the program, he managed to create such a heated atmosphere.

"Have you two met before?" Jon asked.

"I know him." Chris's answer was a little awkward. He is really a technical guy, and it is still a bit difficult for him to perform on this kind of stage.

Lao Jia's expression was very serious, and he spoke in a rather stern tone.

"Of course I know him. Professor Chris has never been optimistic about my project. He also said that my project is a new scam by a big liar. Out of respect for freedom of speech, I did not sue him."

Jon quickly pretended to be panicked and tried to smooth things over.

"Hey, relax, Jia. I don't want you to sue another guest after the show is over."

Although he looked panicked, Jon was not panicked at all in his heart. He was even secretly happy.

The first breaking news came out - "Tonight's West Coast guests tore each other apart and threatened to sue on the spot!"

Or "Super-rich people are angry and sue experts who tell the truth!"

Or "The big liar has been exposed, and the conscientious experts may be wrongfully imprisoned?"

Fortunately, Jon is no longer a reporter, otherwise he would have written it himself, after all, he studied journalism.

“No, I just hope that we can clear up the misunderstanding today and let Mr. Chris understand our BEC’s vision.”

The boss is calm, this is what the dogs in Lingshan are like.

Even though Lao Jia is worse than a dog in front of President Cheng, he is still a big boss outside.

“Vision? Isn’t your vision to get money out of investors’ pockets?

Mr. Jon, I suggest that ABC call the police immediately and have him arrested!"

Chris's behavior was really close to his face.

But, this is the taste I want.

The taste is not strong enough, how can there be a pop?
Having just attended Barack's speech yesterday, Chris knew how deep into the government Wolf and his gang were - not all tech geeks don't know how to deal with the world.

“I’m sorry, I just came out of the police station. After double investigation by NITA and LAPD, I was verified to have no problems.

The BEC that I preside over has gone through some turmoil, but now, its value has returned! ”

Chris is responsible for output and Lao Jia is responsible for interpretation.

Jon next to him pretended to be stupid and added fuel to the fire, and then cooled down the situation at the right time.

Just like that, the three of them started tonight's tense live broadcast in the live broadcast room.
-
Turning down the volume, Mr. Cheng put down the remote control and sighed.

"The Joel Dracula Institute is now on the right track. Wolfe has done a good job."

Lisa had never paid much attention to the Joel Institute, a think tank that belonged exclusively to President Cheng, so she asked.

"Is this research institute run by Wolfe?"

"Yes, but not entirely. It is a special organization of the California Elephant Party. The main investors are us, the core financial backers of the California Elephant Party."

The blonde girl shrank her neck, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"Okay, so who will be responsible for Faraday's future, me or him?"

Cheng Daiqi looked back at the TV with some surprise and looked at Lisa.

"Have you decided?"

Lisa smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly.

"Isn't your solution to force me to choose to leave Xinshi? Chan, it's useless for you to give in like this. You don't understand women. She will only push me forward step by step."

Cheng Daiqi laughed and pretended to be stupid.

"It's up to you. As long as you are willing to stay in Xinshi, I will support you to the end."

Lisa looked at Mr. Cheng dimly and sighed.

She believed that Mr. Cheng's feelings at the moment were sincere, but the adult world could not tolerate too much willfulness.

Bringing Temir back to the front line to preside over the work as chairman itself shows that President Cheng is willing to compromise with Mier.

The purpose of the compromise is to prevent Mi'er, a key figure, from causing trouble. This distribution of interests itself actually demonstrates the cruelty of the decision-making of the interest group leaders.

Right or wrong?

Morality?

justice?

law?

No, none of that. The only thing is to maintain balance and build consensus.

But on the other hand, Lisa also knew that Faraday Future's affairs were obviously ranked very high in Mr. Cheng's mind.

As long as the car is built, Faraday Future's lower limit will be at least in the tens of billions.

How should I put it? Mr. Cheng’s plan and solution took into account everything that could be calculated. Lisa actually admired him very much.

"You want me to play a key role in Faraday Future, Chan, but I'm not sure I can do the job well."
