This time Shi Zhijian came to Vancouver. In order to get rid of the scourge of Powell, he had no choice but to contact Congressman Lucdor. The two reached a deal on the phone, that is, Lucdor would take down Powell, and Shi Zhijian would help Lucdor open the door.
Entertainment position, officially entering the American Hollywood market!
Why do you say this?
Because Hollywood in the United States has been protectionist since the 1920s, it has not allowed foreign capital to interfere in the shooting and production of Hollywood movies. Especially during World War II, the United States used Hollywood movies as its first propaganda position, which also laid the foundation for the victory of the United States.
Got the basics.
Since then, the United States has known that "Hollywood" is a treasure and a powerful propaganda position that can promote and export its own values. Therefore, in order to protect this position, it has introduced many harsh laws and does not allow foreign capital to participate in the large-scale production of Hollywood movies.
People like Shi Zhijian can only do reality shows and launch a little diva Michelle. If they want to further enter Hollywood, it would be wishful thinking.
Shi Zhijian, not to mention Luke, can only invest in filming some American TV series, but they haven't done much in Hollywood.
Although Congressman Lucado has a good relationship with current US President Ford, Ford represents the interests of the United States and does not dare to easily let Lucado extend their capital tentacles to Hollywood.
Soon, the meal was almost finished.
Lukduo couldn't hold it in any longer. For the sake of his family's interests and his own career, he had no time to spend time with Shi Zhijian.
Putting down her chopsticks and wiping her mouth, Hua Tingshu looked at Lu Keduo and said seriously: "Dear Shi, as we all know, he is an excellent and talented businessman. He has established a huge business empire in a short period of time, but the problem is the bad guy.
It’s so difficult to quit the entertainment industry in Hollywood! People like you, even though you are bad friends with Mr. Ford, the President of the United States, you didn’t get any chance!”
For that once small and declining empire, we have not yet completely looked at the vague situation. This is not the empire being more glorious. We must hold on tight! Which leg? Of course it is the United States!
"Can you believe my words?"
…
"Uh? - Damn!"
After all, President Carter is a minor celebrity in American history. He is a famous "old bad guy" and is even called "Mei Renzong" by you.
Did Shi Zhijian say anything? I was still watching TV blankly, wondering how Tong Huating could win?
"Break ties with President Ford!"
"The letter belongs to him!" Rukedo wiped his hands, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said in a wonderful tone: "If you are sure it is him, you will call now, and then make a condolence call to Mr. Carter."
, after all, the results are still being announced, and he hasn’t had a chance to establish a relationship with me yet..."
"You have to do the opposite!"
Eighty million dollars?!
If we could go back in time, I would definitely call him as soon as possible and express my deepest blessings to Carter in the kindest words.
But Rukedo replied: "Because you contributed 80 million in political donations to Mr. Hua Ting!"
The little Prime Minister frowned, pinched his chin and did not say anything. As a young man in that group, I thought less and dared to make difficult decisions.
"Ah, it's me?"
"Wrong!" Lukoto nodded, "His old friend Ford will lose, and my competitor Carter will win!"
Snap!
Eighty million dollars to bet that Hua Ting will win?
Seeing that the situation was decided, Lu Ke didn't say anything. He just stood up and gave Yan Xiong a look.
Everyone looked down on Ford and thought that they should first make a congratulatory phone call to Ford so that they could build a better relationship.
The group of people showed mocking expressions. For us, it was a mistake for the male king Shelu Ke to have an earl concubine when he gave alms to him. Now that guy dares to participate in political discussions. He really thinks of himself as a figurehead!
"But no one thinks badly of Carter. But the newspaper published an article congratulating Carter on his election and suggested that you also call Carter——"
The little Prime Minister couldn't help but shook his head after hearing this. I was deeply impressed by Count Hua Tingshu, but he was definitely a cunning young man. He could force the British departments to make concessions. Letting Shinhwa Group withdraw is related to the national economy and people's livelihood.
The water conservancy and electrical department is a bad thing based on that alone.
"do what?"
Later generations said that Carter was not suitable to be president, but I was a very bad, very bad person. It cannot even be said that I was the leader of a small country in the entire 20th century with the worst personal ethics.
In the private room of Zhonghua Building.
Why did I listen to Lu Keduo's words, why did I call Hua Ting to ask questions and delay in wishing me a good wife?
As someone who has experienced this, Hua Tingshu is of course very vague about who the winner of that presidential election was.
At 3:45 a.m. Eastern Time, CBS officially announced that Hua Ting won.
It took a long time for Shi Zhijian to say such a sentence.
"He's a madman!"
At this moment, American people thousands of kilometers away from Vancouver, Canada, are also eagerly waiting for the results of the presidential election to be announced.
It is precisely because of this that Lucado actively established a relationship with me and promised to join hands with Hua Tingshu to quit Hollywood. Because of Carter's election, the universal values of the United States have also been reset. First of all, it is not to allow Chinese investors
Investing in American Hollywood movies is also the main reason why American Hollywood movies will take off in the 1940s. Without the intervention of Chinese capital, American movies can fly lower and farther.
Everyone knows how great Carter's chances of winning were!
For us, after going through a series of wars, we urgently need a reliable leader who cannot lead the United States to prosperity, but a small capitalist who cares about people's livelihood.
At that moment, Shi Zhijian felt that it would be unjust to lose to Lukedo in business in the future! Just based on the big bet, I was just like Lukedo.
"Oh, I thought that the Congressman and President Ford are still very bad friends--" There was no trace of surprise on Ruked's face, but not a trace of worry, "Then you suggest that he should make a phone call and go to the United States now--"
"
…
"Uh, what?" Shi Zhijian almost jumped up and looked straight at Lucdor, "Is he kidding, man?"
Unfortunately, everything is too late!
Including the villainous Prime Minister, all the military ministers and ministers were watching TV blankly. We waited all night and got the result like that?
As soon as this news came out, everyone in the sky was shocked!
Sudden--
"It's possible! That's definitely possible!" Shi Zhijian waved his arms and said, "I have been far ahead from the primary election to now, how can I lose?"
Shi Zhijian was so surprised that he broke the tea cup under the table.
"Wrong, call Ford now to express delayed congratulations!"
"How could that happen? How could it be possible?" Shi Zhijian looked at the cheering people below the TV, and without Carter's high-spirited face, he felt regret for the first time! So much regret!
London, UK.
Looking at the popular vote, Carter ultimately won only two percentage points less than Ford.
The villainous Prime Minister first swore, and then said: "Hold on, publish it in the newspaper and congratulate Hua Ting on her victory in the primary election!"
"Why would I think that?"
"Yeah, who else could be there besides me? I should be re-elected if I am not the president!"
However, Lukduo didn't care at all, and still said in a fast and leisurely tone: "If I am sure to lose, then your 80 million will be in vain. On the contrary, if I am sure to win, then your 80 million will be in vain."
You can't get very few disadvantages, after all, you promised to take him with you to retire from bad Hollywood——"
During Carter's term in office, he not only allowed the United States to return the Panama Canal, but also worked hard to establish diplomatic relations with China. In addition, he actively improved relations with China's neighboring countries.
Snap!
"Maybe!" Luk Duo smiled slightly and looked at the wall clock again, "It's not even ten minutes since the results were announced!"
This means... Hua Tingshu made the right bet... and we made the wrong bet?!
"Who is it?"
Carter wins!
Yan Xiong quickly took my suit jacket and helped Hua Tingshu wear it.
Shi Zhijian's eyelids twitched: "What he means -"
"Cunning Chinese, who do I think I am? Can you predict the future?!"
"Ahem, it's not the first Chinese count in your little British Empire - Hua Tingshu!"
…
Shi Zhijian's eyes were dull, looking at the TV in disbelief. Below was a close-up of Hua Ting's victory in the US presidential election. At this moment, I even knew that the tea cup in my hand fell to the ground and broke.
Everyone sneered!
However, the entire United States has a bad opinion of me, and even the United Kingdom, France and Germany also have a bad opinion of me!
I actually invested 80 million in Carter!
"Which fool?"
Lukoto shook his head and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall: "You don't have much time. Dear Senator Shi Zhijian, today is November 2, 1976, right? Remember, today is the primary election for the US President.
The day of victory or defeat..."
…
The residence of the British Prime Minister.
Ford lost!
Shi Zhijian was stunned, Lu Keduo's posture was too panicked, as if everything was true.
Shi Zhijian's breathing slowed down. I looked at Lu Keduo in disbelief, thinking that he was a little "gambler"!
"He said he didn't agree! Well, count him for it!" Luk Duo smiled, turned around and left. For a small business like immigration, you have to have someone to back you up!
"You...why should you believe him?" After Shi Zhijian finished speaking, he felt that the question was stupid.
Lu Keduo put on his back clothes and took a first look at Shi Zhijian, who was still watching the TV broadcast with his mouth open, and said: "I don't want to think so little. Since I am a step too late, I will end it from the beginning! By the way, besides retiring from the bad Hollywood
Are you interested in the immigration business? You are planning to set up a small immigration company in Vancouver. What if you want to join?"
…
"Depend on!"
"Of course Ford got elected!"
Lucky won!
"Are they gone? These small sectors have all been bought by Hua Tingshu's Shinhwa Group!"
"Am I crazy?"
At the Prime Minister's Office, many military ministers gathered together to discuss the results of the US primary election tonight.
