Chapter 1190 Re-opening

Many people wish to have an office of their own in downtown Bupain, which may be a lifelong dream for many professionals.

It sounds like... This kind of thing should be easy to do. After all, this is Bu Paine. As long as you have money, you can definitely rent an office.

Most people think this way, but they face two problems.

Either the rent is so high that the average person simply cannot afford the rent price in the center of Bupain, which is a price that takes your breath away!
Or the cheap rent is only rented to designated people. After all, this is Bupain, a place where capital and politics converge.

Here you can see offices that only cost 160 yuan a month but have 2000 square meters, and you can also see offices that cost [-] yuan a month but only have [-] square meters.

They might even be right next door to each other!
Ms. Tracy has a nice office here, about 650 square meters, not too big, certainly not too small, and the monthly rent is [-] yuan.

At this price, you may not even be able to rent [-] square meters in other places.

This is due to her uncle, a patriarch of many dioceses in the Federation. When she expressed that she wanted to set up an office in Bupain, someone quickly came to the door with a rental notice.

In a workplace with a sign of a private campaign office, Ms. Tracy couldn't see much joy on her face at this time, and she was in trouble again.

She did not think about running in a state where the Progressive Party voted, and she did not have such a great energy in the Progressive Party to get the committee and the committee chair to support her.

She will not look for work on the territory of the Conservative Party. Although they have lost the president, it does not mean that they have lost their base.

The president ended his presidency in a very "disgraceful" way, but saved the decency and dignity of the Conservative Party.

For the Conservative turf, which has been less discredited, outsiders are as unwelcome as ever.

She can only vote in a swing state. The state she locked before has no decent competitors. With a lot of money thrown down, she has let people in the entire state know about her before she starts the campaign.

The strategy of the entire campaign team is also very simple and effective, mobilizing female supporters to vote, and the proportion of women in the swing state they elected is almost equal to that of men.

But recently, a formidable opponent has emerged.

After several years of quiet contraction, the Conservative Party seems to have begun to plan to reactivate. Her opponent is a 42-year-old, very charismatic, retired soldier who has served in the army and has done meritorious service.

After retiring from the military, he taught himself law and is now running for governor as a lawyer.

There is hardly any inappropriate place in his resume, soldier, lawyer, which is very in line with the basic needs of the federal people for politicians.

A lawyer's career shows that he is at least a reasonable person who understands right and wrong.

The military background means that he will not be as conservative and aggressive as those conservative politicians in the past.

Politics, parties, never cling to a certain political platform, and when they need to change, they will change faster than anyone else.

Just as the Progressive Party talked about conservative strategies in the past few years, now it is the turn of the Conservative Party to take the initiative to step into the radical camp.

What the people need, politicians give them what they need, and then get support. This is politics.

Compared with these "old politicians" of the Conservative Party, Ms. Tracy is obviously a little... out of step.

If a person without political ability in the Federation wants to win a certain political election, it is not impossible, as long as he has money!
This is probably the most amazing thing about federal politics. No candidate needs to have experience in politics at any level.

They can be a singer, an actor, a cook, a beggar or even a car wash before they become mayors, governors or even presidents.

Whether they have political experience is not important to voters or to politicians.

But this one does not work everywhere, such as Congress.

Getting a seat in Congress is difficult without sufficient political experience, which is a digression.

So how does an inexperienced woman outsmart her seasoned opponent with an impeccable resume?

It's very simple, the characteristics of the Federation, just spend money.

Yes, for what it costs, it may be the single most distinctive election in the entire world.

More intensive posters, more intensive activities, high-priced solicitation of speeches, plus an excellent campaign team, it is easy to win the election.

A cat and a dog can win, which is enough to show how stupid federal politics can be sometimes.

But then again, this is a capital-first country, doesn't it just meet the needs of capitalists?

As long as it costs money, you can get a political spokesperson.

Now that Ms. Tracy wants to defeat her opponent, she must either spend more money, or find the opponent's weakness.

The suggestion given to her by the campaign office is to use her father's status as mayor to make a political deal and get the support of the state assembly from the state senate, so that her chances of winning when running for governor will increase.

At the same time, her uncle needs to mobilize her religious advantages. It is best to add some mysterious background to her during the TV preaching process, and then let the voters vote for her.

In the end, it won't be a big problem to get a few million more campaign funds in.

For the campaign team, the value and significance of a mayor will never be as high as that of a governor, so it is very cost-effective to give up a mayor in exchange for the support of the local state assembly.

Ms. Tracy is considering this idea, and she still doesn't know how to speak to her father about this matter——

"For the sake of your dear daughter's political career, we have decided to give you early retirement..."

Kind of cruel.

"What if we can get more money?" Ms. Tracy asked, holding her forehead, "If we can get 1000 million, will it help our election?"

The unusual looking ladies and gentlemen in the office nodded, and the person in charge, who is also the leader of the campaign team, gave an affirmative answer, "If there are 1000 million, it will indeed be of great use. "

"But I am more inclined to trade with your father. The support of the State House is more important than money. They themselves are a big net..."

The plan is actually very simple. It is not difficult to trade a powerful mayor position in exchange for the support of three to five state senators.

Politicians still care about the mayor. It seems that this is just a mayor, but after all, it can accurately manage the specific work and life of residents in a city.

It can specifically affect the industrial and commercial development of a city and formulate some policies.

If the superstructure is used to sell political resources at a good price, then the lower-level politicians are the specific executors, and the position of the executors is very important.

It is very important not only to make the policies promised by some upper-level figures come true, but also to let some emerging capitalists in the city fall into the arms of the party.

A deal for the position of mayor often involves many and very complicated relationships. After all, a hole can only hold one carrot. As long as three or five state senators support Ms. Tracy, then add some public relations and let the state assembly It's not a big problem when it's turned upside down.

After thinking for a long time, Ms. Tracy rubbed her temples, "I need to make a call..."

The ladies and gentlemen in the room left one after another to give Ms. Trish enough privacy.

She picked up the phone, hesitated a little, and finally dialed Lynch's number.

It took three different phone calls to find Lynch, and that's one of the most disturbing problems of our time, when communications don't sync up in time.

Sometimes once some information is missed, it will turn into big trouble, and this kind of "missing" is constantly being staged.

The moment she picked up the phone, Ms. Tracy mustered up her courage, and after a few simple chats, she said earnestly, "Lynch, I need your help."

Lynch on the other end of the phone didn't sign a check without saying anything like the first time, nor did he sign a check after saying a few words like the last time.

This time, he refused.

"I've given you two copies, Ms. Trish."

But even if she refused, it would not make people angry, but it made Ms. Tracy blush and feel ashamed.

Yes, Lynch gave two copies, and now she's calling for campaign funds like a greedy and ugly slut.

"I'm sorry, I know this...is a bit too much, but I really need help now." Thinking of her campaign career, Ms. Tracy still bit the bullet and continued to ask.

"An opponent appeared outside the plan, and he performed very strongly. Our analysis here means that if the current situation continues, it will be difficult for us to win the final election."

"You know, not only you, but also other people have invested a lot of money and energy, myself too, we can't just stand by and watch everything that has been invested be in vain!"

"It doesn't need much, three to five million is enough, and I will use other methods to make up the gap between us..."

Ms. Tracy told what happened recently, and Lynch felt a little surprised after hearing it, but not so surprised.

When there is no obvious strong candidate among the candidates for governor in a state, especially in the swing states, that is the best time for politicians to launch attacks on this state.

The special feature of swing states is the change and uncertainty of political positions, which also means that everyone is possible, as long as this person can be liked by voters.

If people like a cat or a dog, as long as its owner has the money to pave the way for it, it can win the election.

"There are many ways to defeat an opponent, maybe we can sit down and talk..." Lynch didn't directly agree, but wanted to talk to her.

Ms. Tracy did not hesitate, and immediately agreed.
