Exploiting Hollywood 1980
Chapter 509 I have a good relationship with both the old and new commanders
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Commander-in-Chief of America..."
Ronald was waiting in New York during the inauguration ceremony of the Grand Commander. George Jr. communicated on the phone. The retired George Sr. was going to New York's Staten Island for vacation. So he put down all his business and came here in advance to prepare everything to entertain old George.
"My dear people, today we are here to witness that winter is coming to an end and spring is coming..."
"Ronnie, are you watching TV?" Diane seemed to know something and did not come with Ronald, but the phone calls continued every day.
"He's like a Hollywood star...I'll go back to accompany you after I entertain old George..." Ronald and Diane chatted affectionately for a while. They both have to be equal, so they can only communicate more.
After all, the outgoing commander-in-chief promised to protect him, so it was worth spending some time to help him in times of crisis. Fortunately, Ronald had the help of Walter Murch, so he could leave the editing work of "Sugar-coated Trap" without worries, otherwise he would not have had time to strengthen the relationship.
"Old George will take a special plane to the airport for the last time, where he will return to civilian life. The commander-in-chief told reporters that he will spend most of his time in Houston, but before that, he has a long-standing commitment to his wife Barbara. Travel together and take a good look at the people of this country..."
On the TV, old George and Barbara boarded the helicopter with a smile, and then the screen cut back to the scene where the new commander-in-chief took office. The relationship between the Donkey Party and the entertainment industry is obviously much better. At tonight's inauguration party, many celebrities led by Michael Jackson will attend.
In the afternoon, Ronald finally picked up George Sr. at the New Jersey airport. He, George Jr., Douglas Jr. and others took a luxury car to Staten Island to rest. After Barbara arrived, she told her husband about the various delicacies in Ronald's hometown and the quiet life in the countryside. George Sr. became interested and made New York the first stop of his global travel after leaving office.
"Welcome..." Aunt Karen and her husband greeted the two retired elderly people at the door of their home. Barbara and Old George were very happy and hugged this representative, a loyal supporter of the Elephant Party on Staten Island.
"This must be...hey, you're not..."
George Sr. was smiling, wearing a windbreaker and color-changing glasses. When he got out of the car door, his glasses automatically adjusted the amount of light. He didn't recognize that the beautiful woman who picked him up was not Ronald's wife Diane.
After being stunned, he realized that this little guy was of the same mind as him, and he couldn't help but smile knowingly. But next to her was Barbara, with her silver hair fluttering in the wind, like a lion in winter, calm and self-confident. It's unreasonable for me to value you so much, Ronald, why are you messing around like this with old George...
"This is my cousin Donna, who is also little Doug's fiancée..." Ronald explained to Barbara with a smile.
"Oh, lovely child, look how cute she is and how happy she is to see you...Family is the foundation of our country..." She turned from anger to joy, holding on to Donna and not letting go, and started praising her. stand up.
"Huh..." Seeing this, Ronald let out a sigh of relief. Originally, Helen wanted to come and see him. Fortunately, little George informed him that his father wanted to transfer a certain secretary to his own library after he resigned. The person in charge was furious when his mother found out...
I had no choice but to find a way to persuade Helen, and made up a reason that the commander-in-chief came here for a secret vacation. Because he offended many people during his tenure, for safety reasons, he could only meet some familiar people. Since she was not on the list, she still needed to go through Strict security checks and the possibility of too strong radiation affecting the children made Helen give up the idea, but she still asked him to take a few more photos with the outgoing commander-in-chief for her to appreciate.
The outgoing commander-in-chief was in high spirits and was about to go fishing with Ronald, while Barbara pretended to exchange cooking skills with Aunt Karen.
"Hey, I'm hooked..." Old George swung the rod and caught a medium-sized trout.
"What a trout... very... well, nice..."
When Ronald saw old George catching a trout, he immediately came over and ordered someone to take a photo. The commander, wearing galoshes and raincoat, held the trout in his arms. His son and Ronald held the big fish between their fingers and took the photo. This photo.
"This is really great. Entertainment in New England is different from Houston. We have to barbecue beef there. Let me tell you, for beef tongue, we need to use walnut wood, beef or sausage, and the aroma is more restrained. Oak, or cherry wood…”
Old George happily talked about barbecue, which was also a sign of his relaxation.
"I think the people of America will bring out the best food of the week to share with you, T\u0026T." Ronald then came up to join in the fun.
"Hey..." Old George suddenly put down the fishing rod.
Unexpectedly, he didn't say a word correctly. Old George sighed, then took out his handkerchief, took off his glasses, and wiped the tears that came from his eyes.
"Sir...", Ronald was a little flustered, I just flattered him.
"It's none of your business. I just feel betrayed often in the past two months. Last year, the approval rating was above 90. Who would have thought that it would only be so long before voters would view me like this..."
Ronald quickly poured a cup of hot coffee and handed it over. I didn’t expect that old George would still be so sentimental and shed tears of depression at every turn, so long after he ended his campaign. What’s all this? It seems different from your character as a World War II hero pilot?
"My father feels very hurt..." His son George Jr. was beside him, explaining to Ronald.
"Perhaps it would be a good choice to go abroad to meet your old friends. You know, the people of those countries are only grateful to you and have no resentment..."
Ronald thought for a while and made a small suggestion. Domestic voters betrayed him for economic reasons, and several countries in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and East Asia were full of favorable impressions of him. Maybe going there can regain the sense of respect that world leaders had in those days.
"Do you think so? I do think so too...it just so happened that Kuwait...invited me to attend their celebration..." Old George looked at his son.
"I will accompany you..." Little George said quickly. He couldn't go anyway, so he let go.
"What about you? Ronald? You can bring your girlfriend here..." Old George turned around and extended an invitation to Ronald. He really wanted to walk around with the young man and understand the reason for his failure.
"I'm sorry, T\u0026T Prime Minister. My company has business going to Japan. This is a big event of cultural counterattack..." Ronald explained. "Bodyguard" unexpectedly received good reviews in Japan, and the record and the song "My Name Will Always Be Loved" also achieved great success in the Japanese pop music industry.
Sony Columbia specially invited members of the crew, as well as Ronald, an old friend, to come over to do marketing and discuss larger cooperation plans.
"Well done." One of George Sr.'s biggest regrets when he took office was that Japanese companies invaded the American market on a large scale, causing a depression in the country's manufacturing industry, which indirectly caused his failure to be re-elected. Hearing that Ronald was going to take America's cultural products to counterattack Tokyo, he was so happy that he praised him a few times.
"I have...the phone number of the official residence here. Miyazawa is a good friend of mine, and there is also the liaison officer of the US military stationed in Japan. If you need anything, just call them and say they are my friends..." Old George also specifically asked his secretary I wrote two contact information to him to show my attention. Ronald also showed an envious expression in cooperation and put it away solemnly, although he knew that since you have retired, the value of this thing is only for bragging.
Confucius once said, "As soon as a person leaves the table, the tea becomes cold..."
"But you must not eat their sashimi. What kind of food is that? I vomited last year. It was too bad..."
"Ah, yes..." Ronald didn't expect that his thoughts were so backward and he wouldn't even eat food like sashimi.
"That was my father's painful past. Some of his comrades were..." After the return trip, the fish was made into cooked food, and little George quietly explained to Ronald. Old George vomited...all over himself at the state banquet, also because he thought of his comrades who died tragically.
"It's so terrible, I'm going to vomit..." Ronald felt sick.
"But it might not be a good idea for you to advise him to go abroad for a walk...although it is indeed good for his mood." Little George pulled Ronald and whispered again.
"Why?"
"The CIA intelligence briefing said that the lunatic in Iraq had a plan to assassinate my father."
"Oh, Shxt, I should have called you right then..." Ronald was shocked when he heard the secret.
"Let me tell you a secret. In fact, seventy-two hours after my father gave the order to stop the attack, he regretted it..."
At that time, in order to cooperate and lead the way, some tribes in northern Iraq made great sacrifices and did not continue to march. Although it was good news for those young people, those tribes were in misery...
"Isn't this a secret? Does it matter if I hear this?" Ronald felt fresh and a little doubtful.
"You have to keep it a secret, or I may have to kill you... Hahaha..." Little George humorously said a line that must be included in Hollywood movies up to this point. This reminded Ronald that this kind of thing still happens. Don't listen too much.
"Hahaha, I have to say that the fish you caught can be said to have broken a record in Toteville, Staten Island. It is the largest catch for anyone who comes here to fish for the first time..."
"Ah, hahaha, I'm going to put this photo on my desk. Look, Barbara, how much I look like a brave cowboy..."
"Oh, my dear... you are even more handsome than John Wayne..." Madam also cooperated very well and exclaimed, and then kissed Old George. Her eyes stayed on the photo. Ronald was on the left and little George was on the right. Hey, it would be great if they were both her sons. Poor little Jeb had to run back to Florida because he lost the election.
"Thank you all, on this occasion,..."
MJ's special voice appeared in the CBS broadcast of the inaugural performance of the leader. This young William knows how to use the media very well, and the stars found for the party are all popular among the old, middle-aged and young audiences.
In addition to MJ, Elton John, Barbra Streisand, Michael Burton, Aretha Franklin and other singers also appeared at the scene. Warren Beatty, Bill Cosby and other Hollywood stars who have always supported... were also present. Ronald felt that he would be excluded from that circle in the future...
Fleetwood Mac, the original singer of the song "Don't Stop" that William used during his campaign, also temporarily regrouped for this event and sang the song.
Of course, the biggest name is MJ. When he appeared on the stage, the whole place was silent, and even William's wife Rodham pretended to listen to what he had to say.
"On this important occasion, I want to mention a personal friend of mine, his name is Ryan White..." Michael Jackson continued to speak.
Ronald immediately felt the absurdity of this matter. At the inauguration banquet of the President, the First Couple and various celebrities all listened to Jackson talking about a personal friend of his?
Ryan White, he left too early, he paid a lot to fight...disease, I want to sing a song "GoooSoon" for him.
Ryan White was the unfortunate child who influenced many people and caused many people in DC to support...disease research. He died a few years later because of hemophilia infection.
"Uh..." This feels even stranger. Ronald lowered his voice and just watched the broadcast. Is MJ's influence in the country and even the world now even greater than William's?
"Bye!"
Early the next morning, the outgoing President and his wife were going to Maine to inspect their summer holiday home. Ronald used his private airport and asked Bono to drive his private plane to take them there. Barbara was particularly satisfied with such courtesy, especially after comparing it with the perfunctory treatment of the White House, and she waved to Ronald at the porthole.
"Doesn't that mean a bit of forcing the emperor to abdicate?"
At noon, Ronald went back to Manhattan to see Helen. Helen also watched the inauguration performance last night. The song that paid tribute to Ryan White, plus the second song "Heal The World" performed later, felt like some groups sent bills to the president after the election, asking him to fulfill his promise to those extreme groups that supported him during the election.
"Hey, he is the president. Didn't you see old George say that he could go back on his word even if he didn't raise taxes?"
"William is on the other side..." Helen's understanding of this kind of action-oriented group is much deeper than Ronald's. Her mother was a public interest lawyer back then.
"I don't really care. It's good for you and the children to be in New York. I don't care..."
"Why are you like this?" Helen, who has always been concerned about politics, was dissatisfied again. But she soon saw the photo of Ronald and the outgoing president catching trout, and suddenly she was happy again, "Are you kidding me? Are you also close to the current president?"
"No, I live in Staten Island, and I support the Elephant Party." Ronald smiled, I actually have some relationship with William.
