This is not the first time that Junma Affiliated School has dug up the corner of the bureau of young children to study abroad, and it is not even the first time for Yung Wing himself.

In this era, it is still difficult to find a traditional literati who is willing to open his eyes to the world. Junma Affiliated School has worked hard from the Qing Dynasty. After searching for two years, it has only found more than 50 down-and-out literati, all of whom cannot survive in the Qing Dynasty. The difficulty can be imagined.

Li Mu still valued Yung Wing. When Yung Wing returned to the Qing Empire alone and ran around, he almost promoted the establishment of the Young Children's Studying Bureau with his own strength. This is a rare person with ideals and willingness to take action.

In fact, Mrs. Henry has always worked very well at the Junma Affiliated School. However, after Springfield Institute of Technology officially began to recruit students in August, Mrs. Henry would transfer most of her energy to Springfield Institute of Technology. At that time, there would be effective people in elementary school. Yung Wing is the best candidate in Li Mu's eyes.

At least Yung Wing would not complain to Li Mu about the enrollment policy of Junma Affiliated School.

Mrs. Henry is also a white man. For the enrollment policy of Junma Affiliated School, Mrs. Henry has often looked for Li Mu. Because of this, Junma Affiliated School has to recruit some white students every year to calm the complaints of white teachers and staff.

As the Independence Centennial Exhibition was getting better, the election battle between Hayes and Samuel Tilden became more and more popular.

The re-election of the House of Representatives last year shows that the Democratic Party is already on the rise, so the Democratic Party is very enthusiastic about this election. They hope to break the Republican Party’s monopoly on the presidential throne after the Civil War and gain power in the right way.

The Republicans naturally refused to admit defeat. They didn't even think they would lose. It was not just Li Mu who was confident. Most Republicans believed that last year's House election was just an unintentional mistake. Although the Democrats won by chance once, it did not mean that the Democrats could win the election held at the end of the year.

Relatively speaking, Li Mu should be the calmest. At least Li Mu will not be blindly optimistic about this matter. The reason why Li Mu believes that the Republican Party can win is because of its advantages in public opinion. As long as the Democratic Party cannot create a newspaper that can compete with Time magazine in a short period of time, Li Mu believes that the Democratic Party is already sure to win.

In fact, not many people understand the power of public opinion offensives these days. Although Li Mu has used the public opinion offensive to defeat Tved, most people still attribute Li Mu's victory to the victory of capital, and do not believe that public opinion can play a key role in it.

It is estimated that Li Mu's advantage can only last until after this election. Everyone will be surprised by the power of public opinion at that time. The Democratic Party will definitely not sit idly by and watch Li Mu be able to influence public opinion at will.

Since the comfortable days will not last too long, Li Mu no longer hides his cover and goes all out from the beginning of Christmas.

In fact, it is a technical job to squeeze public opinion. Just because of the quality of news media practitioners at this time, if they don’t have personal guidance, they will really not be able to handle it, at least they cannot achieve perfection.

Li Mu now plays a role as the "reviewer". The guiding articles to be published by Time magazine and all other newspapers will be delivered to Li Mu a week in advance, and will be reviewed by Li Mu before they will be accepted in the newspaper.

For this reason, Sami Lakin ran a bit hard during this period of time. Fortunately, Li Mu had promised Sami Lakin that he would fully support Sami Lakin to enter the Senate next year, so Sami Lakin had no regrets.

Benjamin Harrison was also a guest on Governor's Island during this period.

When the Republican Party held a party primary election last year, the relationship between the two was a little distant because of the differences between Benjamin Harrison and Li Mu on supporting candidates, but now it has been settled. Li Mu used facts to prove that Li Mu was right, so Benjamin Harrison began to move closer to Li Mu again.

This does not mean that Benjamin Harrison changes his mind when he sees the wind. This is how politicians are. There are no eternal friends, no eternal enemies, and only interests are the only core of values ​​of politicians.

Li Mu was not surprised by this. If it weren't for Hayes to win, but for James supported by Benjamin Harrison, Li Mu would have come forward with a shy face now.

This is the rule of the game.

Of course, Li Mu will definitely not let Benjamin Harrison go easily, so this matter is often taken out by Li Mu as capital to mock Benjamin Harrison.

Although Benjamin Harrison expressed resentment at this, he had no choice but to do anything about it.

Who made me stand in the wrong team at the beginning? This is the standard mistake that will bring eternal regret.

In the study on the second floor, looking at the soft article carefully prepared by Sammy Lakin and his men in his hand, Li Mu's face was not very good-looking.

It is difficult to make the 19th century journalists understand the public opinion model in the 21st century. After all, the public opinion offensive these days is still at the level of cursing the streets. For example, in the New York City Council, it is normal to fight in groups during meetings, and some people even make an appointment to duel after a disagreement. In this case, Li Mu wanted to introduce the concept of "soft article" which is a bit too advanced.

But it is not possible to do it. Ulysses Grant's scandal over the years has defeated the Republican Party's character. If Li Mu wants to help the Republican Party win successfully, he must first start by whitewashing the Republican Party, and "soft articles" are the only weapon to whitewashing.

"There are more implicit things. You need to hit the side and not write things like 'I believe the Republican Party will do it well'. You need to find highlights so that readers can spontaneously think that the Republican Party is pretty good and can save it, instead of the hysteria of Hongguoguo now. This kind of writing is useless." Li Mu explained patiently, and at the same time scolded Ulysses Grant for his ancestors for 18 generations in his heart.

It has to be said that the Republican Party has really played a good card. After the Civil War, the Republican Party even had the opportunity to turn the United States into a one-party authoritarian country. It is precisely because of the Republican Party's indecision and the greed of some people that the Republican Party pushed the Republican Party into this unfavorable situation now.

"We have hyped the Independence Centennial Exhibition and the All-American Auto Rally. Besides, there are some other highlights..." Sammy Lakin also felt a headache. It was not that Sammy Lakin and his men were not working hard, but that the pig teammates were not good enough, and they couldn't even find the highlights.

By the way, the word "hype" was also introduced to Samilakin by Li Mu.

"If you can't find the entry point, then go to the Democratic Party's dark history. Haven't they been clamoring to restore slavery? Use this as an excuse to attack them." Li Mu provided another idea. If he really can't praise him, then he started to criticize the Democratic Party. Anyway, this is an era of bad luck. As long as the Republican Party looks better than the Democratic Party, the result is acceptable.

"Slavery...is anyone dared to say that now?" Sammy Lakin was sweating profusely. This was not a trivial matter, and maybe he was going to make trouble.

After the Civil War, slavery became a taboo in the United States, and no one dared to mention it. As for what Li Mu said, it was nonsense that some Democratic members openly clamored to restore slavery. It was too late for Democrats to clear them up. Whoever dared to touch this would have to be dead.

"You haven't even investigated, how can you know that there is no?" Li Mu was unhappy. With this elm head, even if Li Mu tried his best to get Sammy Lakin into the Senate, he would probably be killed by someone.

Li Mu's intentions are also very obvious. Democratic politicians certainly dare not openly clamor for the restoration of slavery, but in the vast southern region, there will always be places where the Democratic Party cannot take care of. Even if the person who says this is just an ordinary and powerless farmer, Li Mu can pour this basin of sewage on the Democratic Party. At that time, the Democratic Party will be unable to argue, because even the dogs Li Mu knows that the southern region is the traditional territory of the Democratic Party.

It sounds a bit despicable, but the problem is that the truth is. Even in the 21st century, the general public can only learn from the media that has been carefully screened by some people or organizations. As for the truth, it has never been important. In fact, for politics, only the success or defeat of the enemy, the winner has the right to speak, the loser has nothing, and he does not even get the chance to defend himself.

"Wow, it sounds so terrible for you to do this." Before Sammy Larkin could speak, Benjamin Harrison, who was in the office, finally found a chance to mock him.

"Shut up, otherwise I will let you know the consequences of offending me." Li Muhao was not polite, and rolled Benjamin Harrison's eyes directly with one sentence.

This sentence is actually not powerful now, but it doesn't matter. When the election is over at the end of the year, Benjamin Harrison will realize the consequences of offending a media tycoon.

If this media tycoon is also a capital tycoon, the consequences will be even more serious.

"I suddenly feel that maybe four years later, I should run for president." Benjamin Harrison has actually realized the power of public opinion. In this regard, Benjamin Harrison's sense of smell is a hundred times more sensitive than Sammy Larkin. This is the professional political work.

"It's too late to say this now, and your qualifications are not enough in four years. Let's talk about it in a few years." Li Mu knew Benjamin Harrison's potential, and this guy's potential was definitely greater than Hayes, so what Li Mu promised Benjamin Harrison was the future.

"I understand, I'll make arrangements when I look back." Sammy Lakin finally got his head out. Li Mu's meaning was already very obvious. If Sammy Lakin can't understand it yet, then Li Mu will have to reconsider the value of Sammy Lakin.

Li Mu's meaning is actually very obvious. He has reason to build a Democratic Party, and he has no reason to make up a reason. Anyway, the Democratic Party has no way to speak out, so even if he wants to defend himself, there is nowhere to defend himself.

"Go, go, your eyes don't necessarily focus on slavery. You need to find more entry points, such as those Southerners who are conservative, stubborn, have a corruption in their work style, and can count them if they don't help the old ladies cross the road. In short, I want to make the Democratic Party smell bad and make voters feel sick when they think of the Democratic Party." Li Mu provided as many ideas as possible. In short, after this combination of punches, he must beat the Democratic Party and be unable to take care of themselves.

"No problem, just look at it." Sammy Larkin finally had confidence. He said this, so let's start doing it unscrupulously.

In fact, it is easy to pick bones in eggs. The Democratic Party has always used corruption as an excuse to attack the Republican Party, and this is indeed awesome. After all, the "corruption" mentioned by the Democratic Party does exist, but this is what voters hate the most now, so the Republican Party shows its decline.

The reason why the Democrats attack the Republican Party using corruption as an excuse is that they have no references. Because the Democrats have not ascended the presidential throne for more than ten years, voters cannot predict the situation after the Democrats come to power, which gives the Democrats the opportunity.

What Li Mu has to do now is to pull the Democratic Party into the water. Since the Republican Party is already in the stinky ditch and the Democratic Party is still in vain, then just pull the Democratic Party into the stinky ditch. In this way, no one can say anything about anyone, and if you want to climb out of the stinky ditch, you can rely on your ability.

After Sammy Lakin said goodbye, Benjamin Harrison expressed his respect to Li Mu: "When you founded Times, everyone didn't agree. Now it seems that this is indeed a wonderful move. Are you willing to sell your shares in Times?"

Benjamin Harrison thought a little too much. Everyone knows that Li Mu is a Pixiu that only enters and does not leave in terms of capital. It is difficult to buy shares from Li Mu. If Li Mu is willing to sell it, it will not be Benjamin Harrison's turn.

"Don't think about it, I won't sell the shares of Time magazine... Of course, it depends on the price you pay. If you give me a price that I can't refuse, then maybe I will consider it." Li Mu thought about it and didn't say anything to death.

The Harrison family is still very powerful in the American politics, just like the Li family who has been newly added to the 21st century. If the Li Mu and the Harrison family can be tied together with Time magazine, the result will be quite good.

Li Mu has now passed the stage of not losing his life when he sees money. For Li Mu, no matter how much money he has, it is just a number, so Li Mu must use the capital in his hands to get in touch with more people as much as possible. This is more meaningful for Li Mu at this stage than making money.

"How much do you want? Or I'll exchange it for you with shares in San Diego Investment Company?" Benjamin Harrison did invest a lot.
