Everyone's hearts in the room were pounding!
The vice chairman brought the news he received from Lynch back to the company, and then conveyed it to all directors and major shareholders of the gaming group through a conference call.
In an instant they realized that they were also very competitive!
Whether it is the selection of the governor or the selection of the next vice chairman of the industry committee.
The voice coming out of the receiver had a sense of majesty, "Mr. Lynch...did you really say that?"
The vice chairman held the microphone with both hands, nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Chairman, that's what Mr. Lynch said."
"He stated that there will be no restrictions on the selection of governors in the future, including the selection of vice-chairmen of industry committees, which will be completely elected..."
At this time, another person's voice came from the receiver, "I heard that Lynch made a deal with some people in Congress. He completely handed over Slum's political voice in exchange for Catherine's opportunity to enter Congress.
.”
"Based on this rumor, it is very likely that Lynch is telling the truth."
"If he goes back on his word, he has deceived the entire Congress and is working against the entire Congress!"
The conference call suddenly became lively. Catherine and Lynch were the two mountains that Slem could not climb.
As one of the three special states of Nagaril, the power of the governor is actually much higher than that of the governor in the federal territory.
In the federal territory, even if the governor mobilizes the National Guard, let alone mobilizing the military, he must obtain approval from the Presidential Palace and the Ministry of Defense.
But in the three special states of Nagaril, in the event of an emergency, they can first mobilize part of the army and then explain the situation to the Presidential Palace.
The decision-making power is much greater than that of the local governor!
If it can win this position, then the gaming group will be able to get more substantial benefits!
Not to mention doing something radical, at least it can ensure that the interests of the group company are not harmed!
In a place where the annual revenue is calculated in tens of billions, with the largest official backer, their profits can be much higher than before!
For example, some new gambling methods or new policies on economic development and other aspects may be introduced and implemented!
The noisy meeting soon became quiet at the request of the chairman of the board of directors.
"Our main job in the next period of time is to find ways to add our people to the list of gubernatorial candidates submitted to the presidential palace."
"In addition, we cannot let go of the election of the vice chairman of the industry committee. Since he has expressed his unwillingness to intervene, our chances of being re-elected are very high!"
"I suggest that you don't be stingy with the money in your hands, and don't be afraid of owing favors. As long as you can win one of these two positions, it will bring us more returns."
"If you can win both..."
The chairman's words are not yet complete, and they stop there, but everyone knows clearly that if he can win the governorship and continue to maintain the position of vice chairman of the industry committee at the same time.
This is no longer an arithmetic problem where one plus one equals two!
Not to mention surpassing Lynch's Central Casino, but at least shortening the distance or even catching up, there's no problem, right?
"I agree..."
"Second the proposal..."
The directors all expressed their approval of the chairman of the board of directors, and soon a huge loose interest group began to operate.
In fact, they are not the only ones doing it, some other big forces, including seven other casinos, also know the news!
Everyone began to mobilize their personal connections and waved money to send their own people to the governor's throne!
The whole Slem is filled with a very special atmosphere!
crazy!
After meeting people from all walks of life throughout the day, Catherine returned to his villa in the evening, and the two of them sat on the sofa, watching TV and chatting.
"I'm a little worried. These people are not good people, Lynch. Will they make a mess here?"
Catherine was lying in Lynch's arms, her hands were around Lynch's neck, listening to Lynch's heartbeat.
Although she looked up and couldn't see Lynch, she still kept this action because she could feel Lynch's presence.
Catherine's worry is not unreasonable, because Slem is the ultimate "happy city" in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of some people with higher status, it has absolutely nothing to do with kindness!
Where light can shine, people enjoy the happiness brought by all walks of life.
Where the light doesn't shine, the ugliest things in the world happen!
There is a lake to the south of Slem, which used to be a mine. Later, the mine was abandoned, and the groundwater gradually overflowed and turned into a lake.
This lake is becoming a hot tourist attraction. Because of excessive heavy metals, the color of this lake looks very bright.
If that's all it is, forget it.
Catherine knew, however, that in this lake, there were at least thousands of concrete-encapsulated gasoline barrels sunk deep into the bottom of the lake.
Not to mention every year, every year is too long, every month seems too long!
Almost every two or three days, a truck that handles construction waste will bring several gasoline barrels filled with concrete to the lake and then dump them in the middle of the night!
Inside were corpses, some of which were caught because they owed money to the casino and did not want to pay back the money, so they disappeared while playing.
Others have injured models from modeling agencies and are unwilling to pay for it and want to cause trouble for them.
There are also some who use some less visible means in the casino to "steal" the casino money...
In short, every few days, some people will sink to the bottom of the lake forever.
Because Slem has never been a kind city!
This place is filled with capital groups that look glamorous on the surface, but are actually indifferent and inhumane.
A gangster who is full of violence and likes to speak through killing.
Killer, villain, liar...
Underneath the glamorous surface, it is like a demon with its bloody mouth, constantly devouring everything in the world!

Under the temptation of huge benefits, these people will definitely do some impulsive things, and she is very worried about this!
Lynch ruffled Catherine's hair, and the soft texture made him feel very comfortable.
"Don't worry, this is just a small problem. My purpose here is to keep everything under control."
"They will not affect the operation of this city, and they will not even let anyone find out what they have done."
"Unless they want to see what the price is for touching my bottom line, they won't do it. They are not that stupid!"
In addition to the 2,000 people originally deployed by Blackstone Security in Slem and the 1,500 people in Port State, Lynch can now pull up an armed force of 5,500 people at any time, and has the most advanced warfare
arms.
Not to mention suppressing some capitalists and gang members, even fighting a modern war is more than enough!
With such confidence and Connor's support for him, Lynch is completely unafraid of provocation from anyone or any force.
Catherine let out a long sigh, "I hope so!"
From the time she just took office here, from the time when she built everything here on the ruins with nothing, to now she is numb to the dark things happening here, she feels like she has grown a lot!
If she were young, she would definitely not allow those people to do this, but she has grown and matured, and she knows what is truly "right" and what is truly "wrong".
After Lynch expressed his attitude, he sent a message through Fern——
"I don't care how you plan to compete, whether it's appropriate, inappropriate, gentle, fierce, no matter how you do it, I don't care."
"But no one can destroy the order here, if anyone makes the world fear Slem."
"If everyone's interests are harmed, then he will definitely regret coming to this world!"
There are some words that Lynch himself is not easy to say, but through another person, it is easy to express them.
Lynch's words were like... a kind of horn, and the "battle" started in an instant!
Professors far away in Bupen suddenly became busy. There are countless people who want to come here to accept the position of governor!
Capitalists want to arrange for their own people to come over so that they can strengthen their interests in Slem, or if they missed the opportunity before and want to get involved now, they can also get their hands in through the governor.
Even people from the Socialist Party began to contact the professor frequently, especially the former committee chairman of the Socialist Party and the current vice president. He has contacted the professor several times, hoping to chat privately.
He also said that he would give her a little surprise!
Congress and politicians are also working hard. After all, the state government withholds more than 2 billion in taxes every year. A little leakage of this money can make a family become a wealthy family in an instant!
Regardless of whether there are some or not, there is competition, and the professor has become the most popular person in the Federation in an instant, no one else!
From morning to night, various people called her, hoping to have a private conversation with her.
Those people in the Progressive Party Committee who did not take her seriously before, those Congressmen, now put down their dignity and dignity and took the initiative to show their kindness.
The appearance of this kind of power explosion pushed up her authority and made her trapped in this kind of pleasure, unable to extricate herself!
From morning to night, almost ten hours a day are fully booked!
Precisely because she holds such important power, the professor's status within the Progressive Party Committee has been unprecedentedly elevated!
Even the party whip took the initiative to show her kindness and even invited her to dinner!
You know, the party whip at this time, when the authority of the committee chairman is not obvious, is the second person in the Progressive Party after Connor!
He wants to show his kindness, which shows how attractive Slem's two billion annual tax is!
Chapter completed!
