Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"Today is a happy day, you finally figured it out Tommy."

After speaking, Diego stretched out his arms to hug Tommy. Tommy's eyes were full of anger, but the anger flashed across his eyes.

"Of course, Brother Di, I have thought very clearly in the past few days that this kind of opportunity may only come once in a lifetime, and I still want to try it."

The two entered the house. Tommy took out the wine from the wine cabinet and some frozen food to heat. Diego said happily.

"We must have a good drink tonight."

Tommy smiled and nodded. Diego looked extremely excited now. Of course Tommy knew that. Diego could blame all the bad debts in CA State on him. Once he loses the election, he not only needs to bear all the responsibilities, but also CA State’s He must bear all the problems, and his future path to power will come to an abrupt end.

And Diego will go to a higher place smoothly, Tommy has already seen all this very clearly.

Diego is currently unable to solve the economic debt problem and various problems in CA State. If he does not solve it, he will not be able to continue to move up. But if he only needs to find a scapegoat, Diego can dump everything to Tang. On rice.

Tommy quickly served some dishes, and Diego toasted Tommy with a wine glass. He smiled and nodded. After drinking, the two sat down and started eating.

"In fact, I have always valued you Tommy. You should have listened to me and prepared earlier. The election is still 4 months away. Starting tomorrow, we have to build momentum for your election. I will handle everything within a week. The relevant procedures allow you to serve as the successor interim governor, but you have the right to vote within the faction."

Tommy nodded. Now he knew very clearly what Di Ge was planning. Di Ge patted Tommy on the shoulder and then said.

"Don't worry, I will submit your information early tomorrow morning. Then everyone will elect you as the leader of our faction, and you can legitimately participate in the election."

Tommy nodded and took another sip from the wine glass he held high. Then Tommy looked at the quiet streets outside. Many people were still running at night. It was very quiet in such a wealthy area.

Tommy still remembers the excitement and thrill he felt when he bought this villa. At that time, Tommy would often bring different women back home. These women all wanted to hug Tommy tightly, but In the end, Tommy just drank them and had fun.

Tommy has already thought about marriage. Marriage is just a means for him to continue to rise to the upper echelon of power. Tommy will not marry a powerless woman.

What Tommy thinks about most now is to win over the snobby people in the slums as much as possible, and then he plans to keep going to these slums to conduct various transactions.

Rather than going to some urban areas to give various business speeches and stand up with some companies, Tommy is more willing to go to slums. There are more and more slums across the country.

These people have occupied most of the country, and some big businessmen have already bet on it. Although the faction can provide a lot of help for Tommy to participate in the election, this help is limited to some of Tommy's normal election activities.

And they won't be willing to spend more money, because the predicted electoral rate of Tommy's faction in this election is less than 10%, which is already too low compared to several other factions.

Especially the two big factions, GHD and MZD, have taken away more than 60% of the votes, but 20% of these votes come from the ghettos. Tommy needs these votes, so there are still four months left, Tommy I don’t plan to waste time canvassing votes in various cities, because it’s pointless.

Tommy only plans to go to the slums one by one and negotiate. As long as the negotiations are completed, Tommy will most likely have more than 30% of the votes, so that he can become the president.

Of course, Tommy didn't plan on talking to Diego about all this, he said.

"Digo, can I personally handle this election? I don't need direct command from people in the faction, but I need to plan it myself. If I don't plan it, I may not have any chance."

Di Ge was stunned, with some hesitation flashing in his eyes, and he stood up and said.

"I'm going to make a few calls first, you wait for me."

After talking about Di Ge going out, Tommy knew very well that Di Ge would try every means to convince him. After all, Di Ge just wanted to get out of CA so that he could reach a higher place.

Tommy came to the window with a wine glass. In the garden, Diego was talking to someone with a serious face. As long as Diego wanted to leave CA, he would definitely stand by him.

The experiences of the past few days have made Tommy feel happier than ever before. He has thought very clearly that he can only take a gamble. If he takes a gamble, Tommy will still have a chance. If he cannot give it a try, he will be No chance.

Regardless of whether he agrees to take over the position of governor of CA, Tommy's path will be cut off.

It wasn't until an hour later that Di Ge finished the call. When he came in, he said with joy on his face.

"The faction can provide you with most of your election funds. As for what you want to plan, it must be approved. You can write out the plan first."

After Diego finished speaking, he thought of another thing.

"What about Jean?"

Tommy shook his head.

"Gene has left and he won't come back, I promise."

Tommy said as Diego stood up in surprise.

"Don't worry, Gene will definitely not come back. He has already left, and he should have something important to do."

When he thought of Gene, Tommy's mind was filled with the shabby future. He knew very well that he had to make all preparations now and make all preparations for the war.

"You tell me what you think first."

Diego asked.

"My idea is simple, to win over people from slums all over the country,"

As soon as these words came out, Di Ge was stunned, and then laughed loudly.

“How could those people vote for you?”

Diego nodded.

"Indeed, they won't do it on ordinary days, but I will use everything about the slums in our CA state as promotional materials and the most advantageous publicity stunt for this election. And I will discuss it privately with the leaders who control the neighborhoods. "

Diego's eyes looked hesitant, and Tommy continued.

"I have made detailed evaluations and calculations in the past few days. If we can win the slums, we don't need too much money. If we want to make the same speeches as other factions to canvass votes, our investment will be very high, and It is also easy to be targeted by other factions.”

Diego hummed.

"It is true that our faction does not have much campaign funds now, and our vote rate is less than 10%. This is indeed useful, but the risk is too great. Although the problem of slums cannot be ignored, there were people who wanted to change the slums before. , although he got a lot of votes, it had the opposite effect in the end and was used by his opponents. They said he had an affair with gang members in the slums and so on."

Diego still thinks about the problem very comprehensively, Tommy also knows it, he said.

"If we show something positive, there won't be any problems, and now the ghetto has the best weapons at its disposal."

Diego laughed and shook his head.

"You'd better consider other aspects. This method still doesn't work."

Tommy shook his head.

“If we don’t follow my strategy, this election will be like hitting a stone with an egg. The money we spend will most likely be in vain, and the people who support us will not be happy.”

Diego shook his head. He still thought Tommy's idea was nonsense.

"We can't get anything by relying on those voters who are too poor to take the blame. They only need a little comfort to switch sides. So I think you are still immature with this idea."

Tommy stood up. He knew that if he could not convince Diego, he would be restrained. If the people in the faction were elected according to their ideas, their faction would never be able to climb up.

"Believe me, Brother Di, you also know that I have helped CA State take care of many things over the years. Do you think I am incompetent?"

Tommy's words made Diego frown slightly.

"It's not that you lack ability, but that you lack experience because of the past."

"If past experience can determine the right direction, we don't need to argue. We can just sum up and come up with solutions based on past experience, but some shackles cannot be broken without giving it a try."

Diego fell into silence. He didn't know what to say to Tommy. He still felt that Tommy's plan would not work.

"Others have just said that what we need to do now is to stabilize the vote base in CA, and then start to expand towards the north, as much as possible."

"Useless Diego, if you really insist on asking me to listen to other people, then forget it. I don't have any confidence that I can stand out in an election like this that has failed countless times in the past."

Diego was stunned, anger appearing on his face.

"Are you threatening me? Tommy."

Tommy shook his head, and Diego also noticed that Tommy went to the slums and changed drastically after a few days. The Tommy who was obedient and always able to solve problems became a little different.

"Tommy, this is not a free-for-all. Please be sensible. We will be blamed if we fail."

"It's not you but me, Brother Di. If I fail, I will take all the blame."

Tommy's words were very firm, and Diego was hesitating at this time. On the one hand, he had to let Tommy take the blame, and on the other hand, he would be in big trouble if Tommy didn't succeed as governor.

Diego stood up and said.

"Let me make a few more calls."

After Diego left, Tommy had a scowl on his face. Once he succeeded in taking over, Tommy planned to kill all the old men in the faction. He would not leave them behind. The future of this country is not a group of old men. In command, young people with strategic vision are needed.

In Tommy's view, the United States has become more and more deformed and has reached an unbearable point. If it does not continue to be rectified, big problems will definitely arise, and the most likely possibility is the outbreak of war.

Conflicts among states have become increasingly serious, especially among energy companies, which are all hating each other, and friction with their once-obedient neighbor to the north is becoming increasingly serious.

If no one realizes all this, this country will fall into the worst situation, and everything will be even worse by then.

"how's it going?"

Diego came back half an hour later, his face serious.

"I can't convince anyone else, they all want you to listen to them."

"Listen to them?"

Tommy laughed, chuckling his drink in one gulp.

"Listen to a bunch of bad old men who are over fifty years old. Their method of handling things will always be based on so-called past experience. Unfortunately, their experience will not be of any help to our entire faction."

"You're drunk Tommy. There are some things you can say in front of me, but please don't."

Tommy stepped over.

"What is the game of power? It is to form a faction to win over businessmen. After getting financial support, it starts to seek benefits for the businessmen. But now in this country, there is no place for oppression. Everyone has already When it reaches its limit, even a lot of entertainment content has come to an end.”

Diego laughed.

"I didn't expect you to think about it so much, but in fact these things are meaningless Tommy. We just need to steadily obtain congressional seats and be able to interact with people from other factions in Congress."

"You don't understand anything, Brother Di! This approach is indeed good when everything is still good, but you should take a good look at the situation in the supermarket, go to other stores and companies to see how the people there work, and Go to the slums and see how miserable they are, and you will probably give up such thoughts.”

Di Ge was silent. He was a little shaken in his heart. Firstly, he wanted to gain power for himself, and secondly, he wanted to leave everything to Tommy.

"Okay, I'll try my best."

Diego picked up the phone for the third time, turned and walked out of the room.

Tommy doesn't want anyone to interfere with his plan. He knows very well that Gene's approach has provided him with too many ideas, as well as the mysterious antidote formula that Gene left behind. These things can all be used. .

Tommy has made up his mind to climb to the highest level. Only by climbing to the top can he decide everything, the fate of this country, and even the fate of all mankind.

Tommy has thought about many things. The reason why Gene said this to him seems to be foreshadowing something. Tommy has thought very clearly in the past few days that such an opportunity is rare.

"It will definitely succeed, Mr. Jean, thank you!"

Tommy showed his brilliant Xiao Ran. At this time, Brother Di came in.

"They said let you try to do part of it first, and if it doesn't meet expectations, let you follow their instructions."

Tommy smiled and took Diego's hand.

"Believe me, I'm going to be President. President of the United States."

Tommy was extremely confident at this moment, because he knew very well why the ghetto existed, and the meaning of its existence lay in those narrow and dirty alleys.
