Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 821 Nobody Can Reject Tang Daheng

"With the change of government, some policies should change in a looser direction." James Baker mused: "Kailei should probably go to the East to look for opportunities."

"When I go to China this time, I will be accompanied by a business delegation." After Tang Huan nodded, he chatted with George W. Bush about his career plan.

After Bush Sr. won the U.S. election in 1988, Bush Jr. returned to Texas, bought a portion of the Texas Rangers in Major League Baseball, and has served as the team's co-manager to this day.

By managing the construction of new stadiums, representing the team in public relations, actively participating in the team's training program, traveling with the team frequently, and watching games with fans.His media exposure gradually increased and his reputation steadily increased.

The Texas Rangers, a second-rate team under the management of Bush Jr., performed quite well, largely due to the successful recruitment of Nolan Ryan, who was nicknamed "Express Ryan".

This well-known pitcher, whose fastest pitching speed can reach 162.4 kilometers per hour, holds multiple Major League Baseball records, even so far ahead that it will be difficult for latecomers to break them.

When Nolan Ryan came to the Texas Rangers, he was over 40 years old, but he was still young and strong, and he was in a brave state. He once played against the Oakland Athletics, a first-class team under the command of the richest man. In the face of Tang Huan and Bush Jr., he hit the 5000th strikeout of his career.

This is the only record in baseball history, and fans of the Texas Rangers are still talking about it until now, and Bush Jr., who has a close relationship with the team, has also won more and more Texas public. and support from the business community.

It can be said that with abstaining from alcohol, becoming a "born again Christian", and managing the Texas Rangers, Bush Jr. has almost cleaned up his bad playboy records in his youth, enough to pass the stage required for entering politics. Dao conducts the threshold and resists the opponent's attack.

Apparently, Bush Jr. felt ready too, replying, "I'm planning to resign as owner and manager of the Rangers to devote myself to the 1994 Texas gubernatorial election. Just... "

Speaking of this, Bush Jr. seemed a little hesitant, "The current governor of Texas, Ann Richard, has a high degree of support and reputation, and the challenge may be very difficult."

"Your judgment is only based on the present, but it does not take into account the upcoming changes in the general situation." Tang Huan smiled slightly and helped the other party analyze.

James Baker and Robert Mosbach are also not optimistic about the prospect of Bush Jr. running for governor of Texas.After all, Bush Sr. was already a member of the U.S. House of Representatives at this age.

You must know that although the Bush family has a lot of heritage starting from their ancestors, it is not easy to produce such a president - Bush Sr. has experienced the failure of running for the Senate and being nominated for president. From being the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations to the Communist Party~ Chairman of the National Committee of the Democratic Party, Director of the U.S. Liaison Office in Beijing, Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, and the 40th Vice President of the United States, he climbed step by step to the current throne of the President of the United States.

In contrast, it is not an exaggeration to describe Bush Jr.'s political qualifications as a blank sheet of paper. As a result, he just entered the political field and wanted to win Texas, the second largest state in the United States in terms of land area and population. Governor, it is a bit wishful thinking.

But seeing that the richest man seemed to have everything in mind, James Baker and Robert Mosbacher, two veteran politicians, involuntarily pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

Tang Huan talked eloquently: "Looking back at the recent US election, we will suddenly realize that there is only one key to determining victory or defeat, and that is the US domestic economy. No one can go against this trend, and Bill Clinton Luckily I made the right bet."

"However, we also need to see that Bill Clinton only received 43% of the popular vote. The gap between President Bush and President Reagan when they won the election is not unobvious."

"This phenomenon shows that the current American society is still dominated by conservative forces."

"But as far as I know, once Bill Clinton's cabinet starts to operate officially, it will quickly implement liberal political ideas, such as allowing homosexuals to join the army, universal medical insurance, raising personal income taxes...etc. A highly controversial policy."

Tang Huan shrugged, looked around at the few people and said: "I think you can imagine, when George officially competes for the governor of Texas in 1994, which direction will the political environment tilt - the current Texas Governor Ann Richard will be caught off guard and lose her base of support."

James Baker smiled in admiration: "No wonder Tang has been the richest man for so many years, and he really has a unique vision."

George W. Bush was also in high spirits, "Hearing what Tang said, I felt that the fog in front of my eyes immediately dissipated. Everyone, if you have experts who are proficient in campaigning, don't forget to recommend them to me."

……

The meeting at the Houston Country Club was a relaxed and pleasant conversation.

Afterwards, James Baker, Robert Mosbach and the Bush family took the richest man's Silicon Valley No. [-] and went to HSD together. Bush Sr. will hold his last Christmas dinner in the White House.

After the plane landed, Tang Huan saw David Rubinstein, William Conway, and Stephen Norris among the crowd who came to greet him, the three founders of Kai Base.

It should be pointed out that, unlike most private funds that place their headquarters in the financial center of New York, Kayleigh chose the political center HSD as its headquarters, which to some extent reflects its business routine of combining politics and business.

We have to strike while the iron is hot. Now that everyone is together, let’s talk about the next development of Kai Lei. George Soros was also called over by the richest man in Tang Dynasty - a high-profile occasion like the White House state banquet is enough for people who like to show their faces. The other party was delighted to arrive.

Bush's political demeanor was quite strong, and he was not affected by the negative emotions of losing to Bill Clinton, a competitor who was about the same age as his son. He talked and laughed happily at the banquet, making all the guests feel like spring breeze in the winter.

In the remaining more than half a month, Bush Sr. will not be idle because he is about to leave office. He will go to Moscow, the capital of Russia, in early January 1993 to sign the "Second Phase Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty."

This is a treaty between the United States and Russia aimed at reducing and limiting strategic offensive weapons. In fact, it is a follow-up to the "Phase 1991 Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty" signed by the United States and the Soviet Union in [-]. It can be called a Bush Sr. Political legacy.

In addition, in a few days later, Bush Sr. will submit the 1994 budget to Congress—Tang Huan inquired privately, and the deficit will reach 29294 billion U.S. dollars.

……

After attending such events on the east coast of the United States and seeing Kai Lei's affairs, Jin Chang and Jin Ge told Tang Huan, "Dad, we are going to Asia first, so we can spend more time with Mom."

In the past few years, Deng Lijun has been using her own advantages to help Tang Huan consolidate her popularity in Funan - the richest man has poured countless resources there, so of course he must firmly hold the results in his hands.

In addition, this year the Tang family all went to Asia for the festival, and the Lunar New Year's Eve in 1993 came very early, on January 1, so now only Jin Chang and Jin Ge are left to accompany Tang Huan in the United States .

Looking at his son who has grown into a handsome young man, Tang Huan nodded happily, "The presidential inauguration ceremony is not that interesting. Bai Shanxiao takes the lead. You go, don't forget to have a good exchange with your teacher Li Fuzhao for more than half a year. Financial experience.”

……

Tang's richest man can't be lonely even if his son is not by his side. For him, it is not an exaggeration to describe that there is a place of comfort everywhere in the world, and he just enjoys the service of Brooke Shields.And this fashionista is also just suitable to take to the inauguration ceremony of the President of the United States, and it can be said that he will not lose face at all.

This morning, the richest man was sitting at the dining table, flipping through the newspaper while waiting for Brooke Shields to serve breakfast.When a piece of news fell into his eyes, he couldn't help but think deeply.

After Brooke Shields put the milk on the table, she leaned on the man's shoulder intimately, "Don, what news makes you so fascinated."

Feeling the tenderness from his back, Tang Huan smiled and said, "Look for yourself."

"A cash truck carrying approximately $740 million in cash was looted in Rochester, New York, becoming the fifth-largest robbery in U.S. history. According to police investigations, the robbers collaborated with members of the Irish Republican Army A faction." After reading the news, Brooke Shields added in surprise, "It's incredible..."

"It's unbelievable that such a big robbery would happen in such a prosperous place, right?" Tang Huan smiled slightly, picked up his glass, and took a sip of milk.

This major robbery case involving the Irish Republican Army made the richest man realize that when the United States has become the only superpower in the world and plays the role of international police more and more unscrupulously, the security in the traditional sense of the United States In the region, the threat of terrorist attacks is also increasing.

In the original time and space, the most well-known examples by the general public are often the "2001" in 9, but in fact, as early as 11, that is, in February of this year, the first clues were seen.

A car bomb attack took place in the same location - the World Trade Center, with the same mastermind - Ben **.

It seems that when you travel around the world in the future, you have to be more careful-I, the richest man in the world, will inevitably be regarded as the label of the United States and used for surgery.

Not to mention the terrorist threats faced by the super-rich Americans such as Bill Gates and Warren Buffett more than ten years later in the original time and space, there is a living example in front of us.

In December 1991, the symbol of the civil aviation industry in the 12RB century——Pan Am Airlines announced its closure, ending a history of more than 4 years.

In addition to poor management, there is another factor that cannot be ignored, that is, Pan Am's symbolic image has made it a target of terrorist attacks, scaring passengers to try to avoid taking its flights, especially in 1988. The Lockerbie air crash on December 12, 21, which claimed a total of 270 lives, was simply a fatal blow.

Raising his arms to embrace the big ocean horse, the richest man secretly alerted himself—I haven't enjoyed enough of this colorful world, so don't be careless and die before your ambitions are fulfilled in Jingzhou.

Brooke Shields was only surprised for a while, and quickly shifted her interest and said, "Tang, I'll show you a very interesting magazine."

"Why, are you on the cover again?" Tang Huan asked casually.

"Just look at it." Brooke Shields placed Time Warner's "People" magazine in front of the man, and turned to a certain page.

The richest man glanced at the magazine cover story and asked, "What happened to Julia Roberts?"

The reason why "People" magazine published this report is that Julia Roberts, who became famous in Hollywood, suddenly disappeared throughout 1992 - without warning or reason. In short, it was like disappearing from Vanity Fair. Same.

Speaking of which, "People" magazine definitely has a soft spot for Julia Roberts. In 1991, the 23-year-old was named the most beautiful woman of the year. This title was given to him three times, and he was almost obsessed.

However, "People" magazine is just asking questions, and there are no speculations like other gossip media.

The richest man picked up the bread, spread the butter on it, and said calmly: "Julia Roberts is a little disobedient. I asked the people below to give her a holiday. What, are you curious?"

Brooke Shields hurriedly avoided the man's sharp gaze and smiled flatteringly: "I'm just curious."

The richest man nodded slightly, "You're so curious, you reminded me that I should ask her manager what's going on."

The women Tang Huan likes are naturally all sought-after, and their worth will double as they get along with the richest man, but it is inevitable that they will have some thoughts because of practical interests.

Although the reason "the richest man didn't enjoy enough" is very overbearing, "no one can refuse Tycoon Tang" is also a fact, and smart women don't need to speak too clearly.

Soon, Julia Roberts, who had been instructed by her agent, came to Tang Huan.

Pointing to the script of "Sleepless in Seattle" on the table, Tang Daheng said lightly: "This heroine is very suitable for you, do you want it?"

The big-mouthed Roberts, who is full of personality, has been smoothed away. At least in front of the richest man, he truly subdued himself. Without any hint from the man, he knelt on the carpet obediently and offered his signature service.
