"Congratulations."
The two toasted and sipped their wine. "Will you stay in Washington tomorrow?" Underwood asked, "Claire's foundation has a charity dinner."
"Dinner? Then I should not be able to be there. Mimi still has a movie to be filmed in Hollywood. The crew has been waiting for her for several days. I have to go back to Los Angeles. I have to accompany her."
In addition to paying salaries, these foundations are holding cocktail parties, parties and dinners under various names, which are equivalent to controlling the communication expenses of the foundation's individuals and the company. The money Song Ya donated to Claire's organization is about the same. of.
"Claire and I can understand."
Underwood picked up the Fortune magazine from the table, "Have you seen these things?" There are several photos in it, Peter's, his elephant party opponents have dug him more from the hotel with prostitutes. The sneak shots of Chen are very clear, and the shame is greater. In one of the photos, the current state attorney and candidate for governor of Cook County, Peter Flock, who has an old-fashioned white decent temperament, is licking the place she frequents intently and infatuated A prostitute’s toe, and another. Two naked women appeared in the hotel room, neither of them were photographed, while he was lying on the bed, and he was photographed with a lewd smile.
"I didn't expect him to have a lot of tricks."
Song Ya smiled, "I heard Goodman talk about it last night, but I couldn't see the local news in Chicago. How is the response there now?"
"No, it's one thing for prosecutors to cheat on prostitutes occasionally, and it is another thing for hard-faced law enforcement officials to fetish and play multiplayer games. The former keeps white and black male voters pinching their noses to see that he has a brilliant record and sincere apology. If the situation can be tolerated, the latter is not necessarily the case. His new poll has not come out yet, but I guess it will definitely fall." Underwood shook his head and sighed.
"Will he lose the election?" Song Ya asked.
"He can only win now..."
Underwood did not say what to do if he loses, but it is estimated that Peter's fate will not be good, especially in the Vic case. His elephant party opponents killed the FBI detective and made peace with the gang where Vic acted as a middleman under his command. Linked to the General Assembly, the situation was chased.
"Can't we do anything?"
"I can't do it, at most I can help him replace the Pastor Alison." Underwood threw the magazine on the table. "We didn't know the existence of these new photos before, but he shouldn't be unaware of it. Love, so...he better win." He gritted his teeth.
It seems that the Chicago Donkey Party is very annoyed at Peter's new basket, and it seems that Peter has also concealed the existence of these photos. Song Ya put himself in and thought about it, indeed, who would take the initiative to explain such a shameful thing to his party? Peter would definitely want to save face, and he was lucky.
But if he loses the election, the disappointment of the Chicago Donkey Party will definitely vent on him.
Poor Alicia.
Song Ya was thinking farther and farther away~www.mtlnovel.com~ I stopped talking about this. Underwood waved his hand and changed the subject, "Have you seen the top 500 ranked by Fortune magazine this year?" "
"I have seen it. The top four in their first global 500 list are Mitsubishi Corporation, Mitsui & Co., Ltd., ITOCHU Corporation and Sumitomo Corporation..."
In the first Global 500 in 1995, Fortune Magazine gave all the top four companies to the company, "It seems that we are not going to let go of the book?"
There are big consortia on the book side. Song Ya didn’t know how many big consortia in the United States would rank according to this algorithm, but there shouldn’t be a situation where the book’s family dominates. There are Marubeni, Nissho Iwai, Toyota Motor, Hitachi, Nippon Life Insurance, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Company, Panasonic and Tomen in the first 20 years, all accounting for more than half.
"In short, there is no new opponent for the time being." Underwood nodded. "Originally, some politicians and think tanks thought that the main target should be shifted to China on the premise of keeping a close eye on their hair. However, the wealth list is single, and it seems that everyone is still It’s time to concentrate on pressing the book. The auto trade agreement reached between the leader and the book last month has been collectively attacked by the Elephant Party, thinking that he has compromised too much..."
"The book is really strong." Song Ya was anxious.

Chicago 1990 Chapter 744: ?Grand System
Underwood is not feeling well now. Although he entered a real power committee in the House of Representatives and the Donkey Party not long ago, he is undoubtedly in a period of rising career, but the telecommunications bill makes him physically and mentally exhausted, like Wrangel does. There are many legislators who have the opportunity to ask for prices. It may be easy to deal with this trouble.
In short, the top priority of a politician is election. He is now unwilling to focus too much energy on next year's re-election campaign, and he is even more unable to expand new funders. The election funding must rely more on himself.
So the content of the conversation between the two of them is still the situation in Chicago's own Federal House of Representatives district. "I know you will have a heavy burden next year. APLUS. Gore, the current commander, and perhaps Wrangell and David Patterson... plus Michelle husband from the Shanghai De Park district, he is your teacher at the University of Chicago, right?"
Underwood said: "Of course, don't forget that I also have Russell Ha. He will run for the House of Representatives this year."
"It's definitely not enough to rely on the two charity foundations of Aunt Susie and Love."
The political alliance between the two has been difficult to separate after the Vic case, and Song Ya does not meander, "But I will be able to own the Inner City Broadcasting Company immediately, and my election donations to African-American politicians can go through this company. Expenses, Sutton and his sons are happy to do me this favor, they do this."
Song Ya frowned, "I'm already ready for you. The donations will be credited to your campaign office account and Clerk's foundation in batches. As for the alcoholic Russell..."
"He is still very popular among workers in the new district." Underwood arranged for Russell in a new district in Chicago with heavy industry workers. He will not be elected in the Barn Chemical district next year. He is very supportive.
"But the workers at Barn Chemical will pass on what he did."
With the development of real estate around the Barn Fluorescent Agent Factory, the new councillors elected by middle-class residents next year will most likely promote the closure of the factory. At that time, Russell will definitely be regarded by the workers as a traitor who has escaped. Song Ya learned about it from Dow. In some cases, Goodman sent his young lawyers to investigate on the spot, and he was very unoptimistic about Russell, "You must insist? Mr. Underwood?"
"I insist, Russell is my person."
Underwood responded, “Dow’s light stick business is average. If they are shut down by local politicians, they will also suffer heavy losses. Are you not the spokesperson for his products?”
"I know, I will communicate with Dow, but don’t count on my energy too much. You just said that Dow’s light stick business is average, but they spent more than 100 million from me and Northern Trust. He took over the factory, and then invested heavily in Detroit to expand production... The vice president who led the matter is also getting older. I heard that Dow’s board of directors intends to retire him in the near future..."
Song Ya heard that he was suggesting that he was seeking Dow’s help. There was nothing to hide in this regard. All told the truth that Dow’s light stick business was squeezed by the book’s products. The one was in the ward. The vice president who clamored that he was an "old-school capitalist" was about to be ousted by the real capitalist...
