Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

Mitt Romney has always been labeled an extreme conservative. He comes from a Utah Mormon family, whose ancestors were prominent figures who followed Joseph Smith, the founder of the Mormon Church, on missionary journeys.

He himself has consistently embraced this label, saying everything he could to wrest votes from the Tea Party during the primaries. For example, he accused a certain major Eastern power of being a currency manipulator, vowed to sanction it on his first day in office, and wanted American workers to reclaim the jobs that had been taken from them by that Eastern power.

Whether he himself believes these words is another matter.

Romney co-founded Bain Capital in 1984 and served as its head for the next fifteen years.

Bain entered China in 1993, becoming the first global strategy consulting firm to establish an office in Beijing. This was not a small-scale trial, but a large-scale capital investment.

Romney has visited China multiple times for research and development. In a previously secretly filmed campaign fundraising dinner video, he recounted his experience visiting an electronics factory in China. He highly praised the factory workers, saying they were excellent, hardworking, and possessed the spirit of the older generation of Americans. He also believed that China was invincible in manufacturing.

Although Romney later went into politics, Bain Capital basically continued Romney's investment philosophy.

Later, Bain also bought Gome Electrical Appliances in China and acquired Asia Pacific Technologies, an auto parts manufacturer. They used free land from the Chinese government to build a new factory in a coastal development zone, and then completely shut down their two old factories in Michigan, shipping all the equipment to China.

When Romney's campaign team was asked about these matters by the media in 2012, they could only respond that Romney himself was no longer involved in any investment decisions.

But The New York Times unearthed a confidential prospectus that Bain sent to potential investors in late 2010, in which the wording was completely opposite to what Romney said at a campaign rally.

The document tells investors that Chinese manufacturing workers earn only 15% of what American workers do, the country has huge foreign exchange reserves, and it is highly likely to surpass the United States to become the world's largest economy within ten years. Therefore, it suggests that now is the best time to invest in China.

Romney criticized China during his campaign to win votes from unemployed workers in Michigan and Ohio. In reality, he no longer believed that the United States could eliminate China from most consumer goods manufacturing.

He has a set of public campaign rhetoric and a set of private business logic, and the two sets of rhetoric never overlap or interfere with each other. He can say in the Ohio union hall on Tuesday morning that the Chinese have stolen your future, and then fly back to Boston in the afternoon to discuss Gree Electric's quarterly financial report with his partners.

As a veteran politician and the most capable economist among Republicans, his standing within the party did not decline after the election defeat.

After all, his abilities were simply too great. He saved the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics from bankruptcy, made up for a $500 million financial deficit, and generated a $100 million profit, all with only 18% of the public funding.

Later, as governor of Massachusetts, he was also outstanding. He filled the $30 billion fiscal hole that came with him without raising taxes, successfully implemented universal healthcare, and reduced the unemployment rate to below 5%. When he left office, Romney even left a $20 billion surplus for the state's finances.

Although he lost this time, he still received more than 61 million votes, the second highest in Republican history, second only to George W. Bush's re-election in 2004.

He defeated two formidable opponents in the primary, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum, unifying the entire Republican establishment.

The margin by which he lost to Obama was almost half that of McCain in 2008, so no one within the Republican National Committee dared to call Romney a loser, because he would still be an unavoidable opponent in the next nomination race.

Even if he doesn't run for office himself, his fundraising network as the nominee, the grassroots organizations he has built in key states, and the voice he has amassed in conservative media can all be transferred to the next candidate; these political legacies have secured his position.

After meeting Romney, Chen Yiran felt that he was a good person after only a short conversation.

This outstanding graduate of Harvard Law and Business School is not as passionate or extreme as he appears on television; his words are full of rationality, restraint, and a pragmatic sense of elitism.

"Mr. Chen, John told me that there shouldn't be any problems with Apple acquiring Disney from the Republican side. The House is currently in Republican hands, and Whip Canto owes me a lot; he won't let any hearings against Apple go smoothly."

Of course, I can't guarantee that every elected Republican official will keep quiet. There will always be some newly elected congressmen or Tea Party members who want to use this topic to boost their name recognition, gain political capital, and build a persona in the media.

But rest assured, I'll make sure they're mostly just talking; they're incapable of doing anything. I know the Republican commissioners at the Federal Trade Commission very well, and I'm sure they'll vote against any investigation being launched.

Chen Yiran was pleased with this attitude, and he promptly repeated the issue of how technology could change the election that he had previously discussed with Biden.

As a businessman, Romney is even more interested in this matter than Biden. He is not prepared to delegate the task to others and plans to start his own company to provide technical support for the Republican Party's future elections.

Chen Yiran also promised that Bain Group could participate in the project, and Aurora Group could provide certain technical support.

Having settled the political issues, Chen Yiran and his team quickly flew back to Silicon Valley, not just to go home and take care of the pregnant woman.

The main issue is with the coffee project team; the chip is almost finished.
