There is a term for the traditional vote base in the U.S. election. The traditional vote bases of the Democratic Party are California, Hawaii, New York, etc., and the traditional vote bases of the Republican Party are Texas, Arizona, Tennessee, etc.
This statement is actually not fixed. For example, California was a traditional Republican vote base before the 1990s. However, changes occurred after the 1990s, and it gradually tilted towards the Democratic Party.
The current president of the United States, Woodrow Wilson, was born in the Democratic Party. During the World War, Woodrow Wilson greatly enhanced his presence with the "Fourteen Points". However, during the subsequent Paris Peace Conference, isolationism and freedom in the United States began to change.
Trade was on the rise again, so much so that the United States did not even join the League of Nations, nor did it get the desired gains in its negotiations with Germany. As a result, the reputation of the Democratic Party plummeted, and the election went downhill.
Woodrow Wilson suffered a stroke in early October and was unable to handle government affairs. This situation has never happened in American history. Congress is now considering amending the Constitution, but even if a resolution is reached, it will only be two or three years later.
No matter how much Ferdinand hated Nyasaland Automobile Group, after Nyasaland Automobile Group submitted a lawsuit against Ferdinand to the Los Angeles District Court, Ferdinand still took the initiative to seek settlement through an intermediary. This kind of thing like a private lawsuit, no matter what the final result is.
, are stains that cannot be washed away on Ferdinand's political career.
If this matter is not handled well, Ferdinand's political career may come to an end.
Mike Carlisle was visiting Beverly Hills with Los Angeles Mayor Rock Hope when he received the information that Ferdinand wanted to reconcile.
Today's Beverly Hills is not yet the "most exclusive residential area in the world". It used to be filled with pastures and farmland, and then gradually developed into residential areas.
After the 1920s and 1930s, Beverly Hills became the "home of stars." The first people to settle here were movie stars Glass Fairbanks and Mary Pickford of the silent film era. Their home was named "
Pickfair", then big-name stars such as comedian Will Rogers, silent film prince Valentino, Tom Max, etc. also moved here, and Beverly Hills gradually took shape and became a glittering city of dreams.
The Beverly Hills in front of Mike Carlisle and Rock Hope is full of bean fields, nothing surprising. The famous Hollywood is also in the process of being nurtured. The impressive row of white letters will not be established until 1923.
It will stand up.
"Hollywood has gradually formed a scale, and more and more people are shooting movies and settling here. Those movie stars have a lot of money. It is very suitable to be developed into a high-end residential area. Commercial streets, shopping malls, cinemas, and other leisure activities can also be built here."
Entertainment facilities -" Mike Carlisle first drew a big picture, arousing Rock Hope's interest, and then changed the subject: "-Now the economic situation is getting worse and worse, why can't we change our thinking, I heard
Nevada is considering legalizing gambling, and if we in California can do the same, then we can build Los Angeles into the West Coast, or the largest gambling city in the United States."
During the Great Depression in 1931, in order to tide over the economic difficulties, the Nevada State Legislature passed a bill legalizing gambling. Las Vegas became a gambling city and has risen rapidly since then.
In terms of conditions purely, California has more convenient conditions than Nevada. Las Vegas, a city in the desert, can rise rapidly, and there is no reason why Los Angeles cannot.
"Legalization - it's hard -" Rock Hope also knows the charm of spinach, but it is not easy to push the state Legislature to legalize spinach.
"It all depends on man-made conditions. It depends on how severe the financial pressure is in California." Mike Carlisle is like a devil from hell. He can industrialize whatever land he wants, or the entertainment industry can make money faster.
Rock Hope was obviously moved, but this kind of thing could not happen overnight. Mike Carlisle was not in a hurry. He planted the seeds first and then waited for them to slowly take root and sprout.
After learning that Ferdinand wanted to reconcile, Mike Carlisle returned to San Diego from Los Angeles overnight. No matter how bleak Ferdinand's future was, he was still the governor of California, so he still had to give him face.
What's more, the middleman Ferdinand found was Hoover.
Hoover and Ferdinand showed up early the next morning at Nyasaland Automobile Group's California factory for inspection. The California factory was the largest local enterprise in San Diego and should receive the attention of the California governor.
The California factory covers an area of more than 20 square kilometers. There is currently no wall on the US-Mexico border, and Mexicans can easily travel between the United States and Mexico. Even so, the California factory has built well-equipped dormitories for workers, and
There are also entertainment facilities for leisure and relaxation, which can be considered unique in this era.
"Yes, our Nyasaland Automobile Group has always attached great importance to workers. Workers must first be in a happy mood, and then they can devote more energy to work, so we have prepared a sports ground, gym, swimming pool, billiards room for the workers.
There is also a movie theater, and these entertainment facilities are usually open to San Diego citizens." Mike Carlisle had a professional and mature smile on his face, and there was no trace of any discord with Ferdinand.
"That's great, then your workers must be very happy, but Mike, why don't you leave these job opportunities to the Americans?" Hoover looked like he was serving the people and always had the interests of the American people at heart.
It can be seen that Nyasaland Automobile Group still has high hopes for the California factory.
Apart from anything else, the environment in the California factory is indeed very good.
Different from the messiness of other factories, the roads in the California factory have basically been hardened. On both sides of the road are specially transplanted landscape trees. The factory is divided into two parts: the production area and the living area. There are ten tall factory buildings built in the production area.
There are more than 100 buildings, each of which is hundreds of meters long and more than ten meters high. Green spaces and gardens can be found everywhere in the living area, and there are people responsible for maintaining them.
Because the ban has not yet been lifted, the workers in the factory in small groups do not seem to have much energy. However, their clothes are neat and their hygiene is in good condition. This is something that even the Ford Motor Factory cannot achieve.
It is true that assembly line workers cannot be too demanding.
"Cost - the salary of American workers is too high. The salary of workers in Ford factories reaches US$5 per day. To be honest, we at Nyasaland Automobile Group cannot do it. The high wages of Ford factories are based on the treatment of workers and suppliers.
In terms of squeezing, their workers have to work ten hours a day, while at Nyasaland Automobile Group, our workers only have to work a maximum of eight hours a day, so there is definitely a gap in efficiency." Mike Carlisle said frankly that this is not a face-to-face
For reporters, there is no need to create a saintly persona.
"But you just donated 80,000 US dollars to the Republican Party, so you are not short of money." Ferdinand kept insisting on this issue. In fact, this is not a question of money.
Mike Carlisle and Hoover looked at each other, and their evaluations of Ferdinand simultaneously dropped a notch.
Don't think that politicians are all dragons among men. They are all extremely smart, but there are actually many idiots.
The most direct example is that a certain Qiao Wang in the future will be a successful businessman at best. If he is asked to manage an office and manage a country, it is really impossible for him to do so. His ability is seriously lacking.
Especially in a situation like the United States, which has powerful military force and the world has been suffering from beauty for a long time.
Knowing what Wang can do, I'm afraid he can only save some political capital for his daughter, and then let his son-in-law make money along the way.
"Mike, many people have this question, why can't you lower the price of your Diesel cars? If you lower the price of Diesel cars to the same price as the Model T, then the sales volume of Diesel cars will be higher." Hoover.
Don't ask why Mike Carlisle donated to the Republican Party. Just ask some idiot who screwed everything up.
Regarding the price of Diesel cars, it is indeed a confusing question.
Mike Carlisle also considered using price cuts to compete with Ford.
However, it seems that this is not necessary now. The production of Diesel Motors is not enough to compete with Ford. Only after the production of Diesel Motors increases, Mike Carlisle will consider cutting the price of the Model T.
Otherwise, even if the Diesel car is lowered to the same price as the Model T, there will be no way to capture the market due to insufficient production.
"Our goal is not to defeat Ford. The United States is a huge market that no one company can monopolize. We want to work with Ford to maintain this market, produce different cars, and meet the needs of different groups of people. This is our goal.
"Mike Carlisle calmly praised the United States again.
Hoover actually didn't care about the competition between Nyasaland Automobile Group and Ford. He came to San Diego this time for a purpose. Although Nyasaland Automobile Group had been forced to choose sides in the California election,
In the US presidential race, Nyasaland Automotive Group is still waiting on the sidelines.
Hoover's nationwide speaking tour was also raising campaign funds.
Arriving at the California factory office, Mike Carlisle and Ferdinand finally faced off head-to-head.
"If you had expressed your support for me early, there would have been no such thing as a ban. The election is an election for all Americans, and no one can stay out of it." Ferdinand was still arrogant.
"Sorry, we are a British company -" Mike Carlisle replied neither softly nor hard.
"But you are in the United States, and you must abide by American rules." Ferdinand was extremely entangled, and he gave $80,000 to his competitor——
Ferdinand felt like his heart was bleeding.
"Okay, gentlemen, don't get entangled in these verbal disputes. Mike, you have to withdraw the lawsuit immediately. Mr. Governor, you have to lift the ban immediately, if you still want to be re-elected." Hoover was impatient. He would make a public announcement in Los Angeles tomorrow.
Speech, I really don’t have time to dwell on such nonsense.
:The weather is finally getting cooler, and my typing speed is much faster——
