Veteran

The new chairman of the Science and Technology Exhibition Party is a retired old professor. He is tall, tall and thin. He looks like a bamboo pole, the kind that can hang clothes to dry.Zhao Yuanju tested his reason for coming, and the old professor was straightforward: "I hope that the Science and Technology Exhibition Party can be merged into your party."

Zhao Yuanju suspected that there was something wrong with his ears: "What did you say?"

The old professor repeated the words slowly: "I have seen every speech of Chairman Cao Qizhi, and I agree with your policies very much. I think we can be a cooperative relationship."

Zhao Yuanju responded politely while thinking: "Of course it is an honor, but the current situation of your party is clear and there is a very high possibility of winning. Why did you make such a decision?"

The old professor said: "No, we put all the conditions into the simulator for the final voting test, and the result is that there is only a 30.00% chance of winning, which is very small. You and the Military Benefit Party Leading with 30.00% nine and [-]% six respectively, by the way, I used rounding, the number after the decimal point is a bit too much."

Zhao Yuanju asked: "So, what do we need to do?"

The old professor said: "Improve the treatment of scientific and technological researchers, strive for more financial support for various universities, what else is there?" He took out a cowhide notebook from his pocket, turned to one of the pages, and continued, "Detailed to optimize the research field, sponsor more research funding, and get rid of stupid officials who like to point fingers. I met one when I was young, and he asked me to produce a progress report every month. He must regard the laboratory as a Sales company... what do you think?"

Such conditions are not considered conditions at all, and they are not even involved in personnel arrangements.Zhao Yuanzhu calmed down: "This is really good news for us. I need to discuss it with my partners. If you don't mind, I would like to ask you a question at the end. Why did you choose us?" The Party has an affair with the Junyi Party.

The old professor replied with a face of course: "Your winning rate ranks first."

Zhao Yuanzhu: "..."

When Zhao Yuanju brought back the answer, Cao Yu and others felt the same as him.

Cheng Xiu asked: "Are you sure you didn't save a seriously injured middle-aged man in the kitchen when you were a child? Or picked up a frozen snake in your arms on the road and revived it with your body temperature?"

Zhao Yuanju said, "I'm sure the person I'm talking to today is not a snake."

Cheng Xiu said, "Maybe it's because he didn't drink realgar wine."

"..." Zhao Yuanju decided not to waste any more time, and asked Cao Yu's opinion directly.

Cao Yu pondered: "This is a very good opportunity."

Zhao Yuanju said, "You once suspected that the Science and Technology Exhibition Party and the Junyi Party were in the same group."

Cao Yu said: "There is no need to doubt this matter."

Zhao Yuanju laughed.

"Almost certainly." Cao Yu continued slowly.

Zhao Yuanju's face changed slightly: "What do you mean?"

Cao Yu said: "There is a new exchange technology meeting behind the Junyi Party, and a new exchange technology meeting behind the Science and Technology Exhibition Party. How likely are you to guess that the two just went to the same store to buy the same ice cream?"

Zhao Yuanzhu frowned: "Is this a trap?"

Cao Yu said: "The old professor may not know about it. You'd better talk to the campaign manager of the Science and Technology Exhibition Party."

Zhao Yuanzhu was a man of action, so he turned around and asked Qiu Xu to make an appointment. The other party readily agreed and came over in half an hour.

The same is the campaign manager, the other party looks very gentle and polite, he looks like a scholar at first glance, in contrast, Zhao Yuanzhu is like a soldier carrying a dynamite bag, ready to die with the other party at any time.

It was already dinner time, Zhao Yuanzhu ordered a simple meal, and the campaign manager of the Science and Technology Exhibition Party ordered a vegetable salad.Out of politeness, Qiu Xu advised him to eat more. The campaign manager said: "Human beings have fat clogged their brains because they eat too much meat."

……

Zhao Yuanju thought: He chose the old professor as the chairman, could it be because he is so thin that he can't squeeze oil out?

After the meal, the campaign manager wiped the corners of his mouth gracefully: "I know you must be suspicious of our intentions, and there is no need for that. You are just a group of creatures that conform to the law, and there is no value for us to spend time studying. We build a political party It is to arouse the public's attention to science and call on the government to strengthen support for the scientific community. That's all. If you can do all of these, then we are willing to spend more time on research instead of standing like a clown. perform on stage."

Cao Yu winked at Zhao Yuanzhu.

Zhao Yuanzhu understood: "Why not the Junyi Party? It has a closer relationship with you, doesn't it?"

The campaign manager froze for a moment: "What closeness?"

Zhao Yuanju said: "A few friends of mine just cooperated with the New Technology Exchange Association, so they got some inside information." He spoke very vaguely, as if he knew a lot, but he was sincerely waiting for the campaign manager to confess.

The campaign manager frowned: "Indeed. They instigated the establishment of a political party from the very beginning. It seems a bit inappropriate to use 'incite'? That is to promote, to promote. Later, something happened to the former chairman, and they disappeared It’s gone. I didn’t know that they supported the Junyi Party. If I knew, I would have chosen you. I don’t want to get along with a group of pseudo-scientists in the name of technical exchanges.”

Zhao Yuanju said, "Would you like to say a little more?"

"I don't want to." The campaign manager has a steely temperament that is completely opposite to his appearance, and he is quite unambiguous, "For the sake of salad, I have left enough time for you. You should make a decision as soon as possible, of course, also You can refuse. It's nothing, we just don't want the results of so long to be wiped out, in terms of time cost, it's really a big loss."

Zhao Yuanju looked at Cao Yu, saw him nod calmly, and said, "Can you elaborate on the details of your joining?"

Because of the access control, Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu left first.

On the way, they casually discussed the pros and cons of joining the Science and Technology Exhibition Party.The form of the discussion was mainly carried out with Cheng Xiu asking questions and Cao Yu answering.

Cheng Xiu asked: "Do you want the Science and Technology Exhibition Party to join?"

Cao Yu replied, "Of course."

"What is the biggest benefit of joining the Science and Technology Exhibition Party?"

"Get more support, establish a better image, and also provide a good model for other political parties to cooperate, and the election is smoother."

"What's the downside?"

"They may turn back halfway."

"So we have to guard against them?"

"of course."

"As a representative of bad water, can you imagine what tricks they will play?"

Cao Yu stopped in his tracks: "Can I just defend the 'representative with a bellyful of bad water' that I just won?"

Cheng Xiu coldly refused: "No."

"Okay." Cao Yu continued to walk forward, "Then, my answer is, yes, I can probably imagine what tricks they will play."

Cheng Xiu asked, "So what else is there to worry about?"

Cao Yu laughed and said, "My heart is setting off firecrackers to welcome them to join."

It may take a long time for scientists to develop results, but the speed at which agreements are reached can be described as lightning.Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu walked back to the dormitory, and as soon as they turned on the lights, Zhao Yuanju informed them that everything was ready, and they were currently looking for the media to hold a press conference, planning to find a suitable day to officially announce the merger.

The struggle of several major political parties has reached a critical moment, and the joining of the Science and Development Party will undoubtedly reassure everyone in the Lili Party and greatly increase the chances of success.

Sure enough, as soon as the press conference was held, the Lili Party beat the Junyi Party by a large margin in the opinion polls, firmly ranking first.The war of words between several parties has become day-to-day. One second, the navy that Zhao Yuanju bought is still yelling at the Junyi Party for taking Na Bella to assassinate Cao Qizhi. The next second, the Lili Party is accused by the Xingye Party of colluding with senior government officials. , Manipulating the election...

Several political party candidates were not to be outdone. After finishing their speeches across the country, they rolled up their sleeves to accept media interviews, discredited their opponents in various ways, and supported their navy.

Given that Cao Qizhi was still "sick in bed," all interviews with the Lili Party were conducted by Cao Tong.However, he never criticized other parties and their candidates. He only praised Cao Qizhi emotionally and gave examples in an orderly manner to prove the implementability of various policies of the Lili Party. The response was very good.Of course, Cao Yu's appearance also played a big role. Compared with Cao Qizhi's well-behaved handsome face, Cao Yu's overly pretty face is more distinguishable.More importantly, his near-twin similarity with Cao Xie is talked about.Although Cao Xun thought that many of the policies back then were flawed, in the minds of most people, he was a great figure who became a "legend". Pity.At the same time, Cheng Xiu beside him was also discovered by the media, and some netizens noticed that he looked like General Lin Ying back then.Legendary opponents in history have become legendary friends in reality, casting a veil of mystery over their identities.Some TV stations even used a special program to analyze them, from appearance to personality, and finally came to the conclusion that it must be the heroic souls of General Lin Ying and Chief of Staff Cao Xie who bless Xingguo.

To some extent, it is also true.

The election of a new political party, which has always been relatively unpopular, has seldom gained public attention, and it is as powerful as a presidential election.

When Cao Yu and others returned to Capital Star, Pang Heyuan happened to accompany the president on a foreign visit, and when he came back, it was already the day before the debate.He purposely invited Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu out alone to cheer them up.

Cao Huang said: "Compared with you endlessly choosing the same restaurant to order the same dishes to win us over, I prefer you to gather supporters of the People's Voice Party to canvass for the Lili Party."

Pang Heyuan said: "Based on your current situation, I don't think I need to do such a frivolous move."

Cao Yu said, "May I buy insurance from you?"

Pang Heyuan said: "There are many accidents in this world..."

"We didn't say that at the time."

"I have done a lot." Pang Heyuan said, "When Cao Qizhi gave a speech across the country, I provided a lot of convenience. Of course, there was also mobilization, internally. Since you want to disregard your relationship with the Times Progressive Party, you should not Hope to add too many colors of the People's Vocal Party?"

"These are not [-]% guarantees," Cao Huang said.

Pang Heyuan said: "Only the Baoyi Party can do such a thing as [-]% insurance. Didn't you hire an assistant campaign manager from Gold Star? Why didn't you ask him?"

Cao Yu said: "If I cheat in the election, you..."

"I will definitely handle it according to the law."

Cao Yu said: "People who are friends with you will definitely think you are boring."

Pang Heyuan said: "Those who find it boring think prison is very interesting."

Cao Yu looked at the roast duck that Cheng Xiu purposely moved in front of him and finished eating, and called the waiter to order another one.

With such an interruption, Pang Heyuan changed the subject: "Will you be in the debate or will Cao Qizhi come back from 'healing'?"

Cao Huang said sincerely: "You can mobilize your internal staff to guess again."
