Although Tangning knew that several years had passed and the head of the Veterans Association could no longer be Adams, when he came to the Veterans Association again, he was surprised to find that the person in charge was actually Jonathan.
"Jonathan, why are you working here?" Tangning asked unexpectedly.
And Jonathan asked: "Is it unreasonable for me to work here?"
"Well, it's indeed reasonable. I'm just a little surprised because I haven't heard you say it before!" Tangning replied calmly.
Jonathan explained: "Because this is not a formal job, and you haven't asked before!" Then he changed the topic and asked: "By the way, Tony, what's the matter with you?"
"Um, that's right. On behalf of the Constitutional Federal Party, I'm here to win your veterans' votes in this election!" Tang Ning replied honestly.
Jonathan asked with some confusion: "No, I remember that your Constitutional Federalist Party already had a person to do this. Let me think about it, he seems to be called"
Before Jonathan could finish what he said, Tangning interrupted: "Linton, right? He's sick, so now the job is handed over to me!"
"Oh, that's what happened, that's great!" Jonathan replied happily, and then added: "Well, Tony, don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying that Linton's illness is a good thing, but that we have a chance.
It’s good to be able to collaborate!”
"I know this, Jonathan, you are not that kind of person. By the way, how far has Linton's cooperation with you reached?" Tangning asked.
Jonathan first found a piece of information and then replied: "Well, I've done leaflets and speeches before, and the results are pretty good, but I think Tony, you can use your literary master's advantage to publish it in a newspaper like City Paper."
Promote it yourself, preferably by writing an attractive novel!"
After listening to Jonathan's suggestion, Tang Ning thought to herself that writing it into a novel would be a good idea, but the problem is that there is currently no suitable reference material. The only one I know that is similar is Mark Twain's "Running for Governor," but Mark Twain might not be able to draw inspiration from it.
Wen is writing it now. Secondly, this novel is a satire on the election campaign, which is not very helpful to people like me who really want to run for office. The third one is Mushroom's campaign for president, but that is even less suitable for the current context.
So I had to say perfunctorily: "This is indeed a good idea. I will go back and think about it carefully to see what kind of novel is more appropriate." Then he said seriously: "But one thing must be explained, I am not a literary master!"
"Okay, okay, little literature teacher!" Jonathan teased, and then said seriously: "Tony, if you haven't thought about what to write, I have an idea here!"
"It's not appropriate to write about your Ku Klux Klan under such circumstances!" Tang Ning reflexively said.
"Oh Tony, don't be so sensitive. Although I am indeed a member of the KKK, it is impossible for everything to be related to the KKK. In fact, my idea is very simple. You can just write about Maxi. His story is so legendary.
, and it’s also connected to our Veterans Association!”
Tangning thought about it and nodded in agreement: "What a great idea. Use Paul's experience to draw everyone's attention to veterans, and finally highlight the theme of my campaign!"
"That's what it means. To be honest, I'm looking forward to your novel now, Tony!" Jonathan said with a smile.
"Well, then I'll go discuss it with Paul and Levin. After all, this matter requires their consent."
So after coming out of the Veterans Association, Tangning first came to Maxi's house, told him her thoughts and purposes, and then asked, "Paul, do you think this is okay?"
Maxi thought for a moment, and then replied: "Yes, yes, but Tony, can you show it to me before publishing it? Actually, I don't care, but there must be a description of Audrey, so when the time comes, I
I need to ask her opinion."
Tangning nodded in agreement without hesitation: "This is what it should be. And even if it's just about your description, I have to ask for your opinion before publishing it!"
Then he added: "But for the sake of accuracy, I have to come over frequently these days to ask you about some details of your experience with Audrey, okay?"
"Of course there's no problem with that!" Maxi nodded in agreement.
"Thank you, then I'll come back tomorrow. Now I have to go to Levin's place!" Tangning stood up and said.
The reason why we wanted to find Levine was that, first, since this novel was going to be published in City Paper, even though Tang Ning was now somewhat famous, she had to seek the newspaper's opinion first; second, Tang Ning had already agreed to publish "Crazy"
"Oil Painting", but now that I have seen it, I don't have time to write it, so I have to discuss changing the layout.
After listening to Tangning's story, Levin pondered for a while, and then said: "Tony, first of all, I have to say that it is a good idea for you to write about Paul's experience. In fact, even if you don't write it, I plan to discuss it with Paul.
"
Then he changed the topic and said: "But there is no need for you to give up "Crazy Oil Painting", because I know your purpose of writing this novel. In fact, I also feel that something is wrong with things like this in New Orleans recently, so I must publish it as soon as possible.
It will be effective only if you come out, otherwise it will be meaningless if everyone is deceived. In addition, this matter is also good for your campaign!"
"Levin, I understand what you said, otherwise I wouldn't have written "Crazy Oil Painting". After all, you don't know how lazy I am, but the problem is that I really don't have that much time and energy.
Ah!" Tangning complained.
Levin replied disapprovingly: "This is not easy. If you don't have time, just find someone to write it for you. I believe Melissa is willing, and I believe you can rest assured of her writing style."
!”
"I trust her writing skills, but this guy's intentions for me are not pure!" Tangning frowned and murmured to himself, but in the end he reluctantly agreed and completed the completed part of "Crazy Oil Painting"
The outline and outline were handed over to Melissa for continuation, and she concentrated on the preliminary research of "Resurrection of the Dead Soldier" and the preliminary preparations for the campaign.
