Rebirth of the Tech Madman - Chapter 1056

“Mr. Vice President, why did you come here suddenly?” Gray Davis asked in astonishment.

Al Gore, the uninvited guest, smiled and asked, “Aren’t you welcome?”

“Of course it’s welcome.” Gray Davis hurriedly entertained each other.

No wonder Gray Davis was whispering in his heart. You know, Al Gore, the Vice President of the United States, has been in a delicate situation recently.

It may be too “active”. Al Gore broke into the battlefield of the United States of America v. Philosopher Software Corporation’s monopoly case, and became angry with the richest man. It can be said that he has made the limelight.

At the same time, US President Bill Clinton, who is about to face impeachment, is increasingly suspicious of Al Gore.

You are so happy, are you really preparing for the two-thousand-year presidential election, or are you hoping that I will be impeached, so that you, the first in line, will be the first heir?

You don’t need to tell this information with your ears. At the level of Gray Davis, you must have the ability to analyze it independently.

Al Gore also understands that everyone is not a fuel-efficient lamp. There is no need to waste time and emotions to test. He directly turns to the topic: “I am coming to California this time, in addition to business, I also want to check by the way to see if you can find The right partner will fight for the two thousand-year presidential election together.”

Gray Davis, who was not at all in vain, didn’t take the words and said, “It’s rumored that the current governor of Texas, Bob Ten, will also participate in the two-thousand-year presidential election. It’s extremely fierce.”

“It’s just a dude who seems to be reforming and seeking to be motivated.” Al Gore snorted disdainfully. “The current DPP government has made extremely brilliant economic achievements, and will leave a large amount of precious valuables. Political~governance inheritance. As long as I can find a good enough partner, even if Xiao Bushi pulls his father Lao Bushi to help out, it will be useless!”

Gray Davis, who could not continue to pretend to be confused, tentatively asked: “Has Mr. Vice President found a satisfactory candidate?”

Al Gore did not immediately answer directly, but said as many as Jane about Gray Davis’ qualifications, “If I remember correctly, you have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Stanford University and a Juris Doctor degree from Columbia University; you have completed your studies. Later, he entered the U.S. Army and served in the Vietnam battlefield from 1967 to 1969. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal. After retiring, because of his interest in politics, he joined the political arena. The current chairman of the California High Speed ​​Rail Board and then the executive secretary and chief of staff of California Governor Jerry Brown.”

“When Jerry Brown ended his tenure as governor and stopped pursuing political and political development, you moved to the California State Assembly, and then served as California’s Auditor General, Lieutenant Governor, and even the current designate. Governor of California.”

Hearing what Al Gore said, in order to prevent the other party from misunderstanding his IQ, Gray Davis had to bite the bullet and tore off the window paper first and said: “Mr. Vice President, don’t you think I can be yours? The presidential campaign partner, right?”

“Why not?” Al Gore said cleverly: “Your political qualifications are already strong enough, especially in this year’s California governorship campaign, you have demonstrated extremely outstanding talents, which is exactly what I am looking for. Best partner.”

Gray Davis shrugged, “Thank you, Mr. Vice President, for your trust, but my term as governor of California has not yet begun. How can it end.”

Al Gore laughed blankly and said: “Don’t tell me that you, who have been lieutenant governor for several years, still feel that the position of governor is full of endless appeal.”

“According to my observations, you are no longer interested in the development of the state level. As early as when you were the California Auditor General, you targeted the Senators of Congress; it is a pity that you were killed by Tang Huan’s hard-core ally, San Francisco Mayor Diana Fan. Stan suffered a terrible defeat and lost the opportunity to show his talents on a higher level of the federal platform, so he had to retreat to become the lieutenant governor and now the governor.”

“If you feel that the burden of running a partner is too heavy, you can also express your own opinions on the composition of the future cabinet.”

Hearing Al Gore finally mentioning Tang Huan’s name, Gray Davis’s eyes narrowed, “Mr. Vice President is so daring to draw me in, I don’t know how I want me to return it?”

Al Gore looked directly at Gray Davis and slowly said: “You only need to do one thing just, that is, lead California, follow the Department of Justice, and sue Philosopher Software for monopolizing industries.

“Sure enough.” Gray Davis took a breath, his face becoming hard to look.

Al Gore continued in an unquestionable tone: “It is about to enter 1999. The Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia for the Federal Circuit has ruled that Philosopher Software has a monopoly. It will be like time. There is no doubt that you are just Just follow the trend.”

Gray Davis snorted dissatisfiedly, “Since whether or not California participates will not affect the outcome of the judgment, why bother to drag me into the water?”

“You don’t know, I won the election for governor of California this time, and I got a lot of support from Tang.”

“Further forward, although I was defeated by San Francisco Mayor Diana Feinstein when I was running for the Senate, but when the outside world believed that my political career ended here, it was also supported by Tang. , The current lieutenant governor has been elected.”

“If I, like you said, take office as the governor of California in early January next year and lead California to join the ranks of anti-philosophical software companies, not to mention the opposition of the local vested interest groups in California, just the outside world’s comments on my betrayal of supporters. , It’s hard to fight.”

“Look at the past U.S. presidents, are there examples of fully fulfilling their campaign promises after taking office?” Al Gore asked with a faint sarcasm, “Isn’t politics and governance like this? The promises made during the campaign are ideal, but After coming to power, you must face reality and make various compromises.”

“You don’t know that the support you got from Don was because of your former’employer’ Jerry Brown. This is why when he was running for the Senate, Don supported the mayor of San Francisco, Diana Feinstein. the reason.”

“There is a difference between relatives and sparseness, but this is the case.”

“You lead California to join the ranks of the anti-philosophical software company monopoly, even if it is a kind of betrayal, it just ended the friendship with Jerry Brown; as for Tang, it is nothing more than returning to the original indifferent state.”

“After that, now your relationship with Tang is really close? Haha… I’m afraid it’s a little wishful thinking!”

“And if you lead California to join the ranks of the anti-philosophical software company monopoly, it is absolutely correct. I believe that there is no need for me to say more about the mystery. You can understand it clearly with your own wisdom. .”

Al Gore looked at Gray Davis’s ever-changing and struggling look, and solemnly emphasized: “In return, in my cabinet, which position do you like in my cabinet, pick whatever you want!”

“I believe that your real need is the political arena at the national level, not California, which has been around for decades.”

Gray Davis sighed: “The consequences of angering Tang are very serious. I believe you have a deep understanding of this.”

Hearing this, Al Gore, who had maintained a calm and graceful posture since the beginning, suddenly turned his old face into liver-colored, slammed the armrest of the sofa hard, and said passionately: “Why are you so afraid of Tang? It’s not because his company has a monopoly! This proves that the Justice Department’s prosecution is correct and meaningful.”

“Although you will stay in the position of California governor for two years and face Tang from time to time, I have carefully understood your campaign platform, and I can definitely conclude that if you leave him, you will still have fun.”

“For example, for the increase in public education investment in California, in terms of the current state of California’s finances, a budget of several billion dollars is not a problem.”

“For another example, I can use my own resources to assist you in improving relations between outside California and Mexico.”

“You see, the world is like this, it’s not that the one in the imagination can’t do without another.”

“In terms of stepping back ten thousand steps, if Tang really does something, it would be even better. We are worried that we can’t catch him! As long as he dares to violate the rules of the game, he will be magnified ten thousand. Times.”

Gray Davis was finally moved. He asked with confirmation, “Your promise really counts?”

Al Gore replied solemnly: “I promise with my religious faith!”

…

After attending the Apec summit in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the richest man went north to Funan, preparing to attend the opening ceremony of the 13th Asian Games held here.

The climate of the Indo-China Peninsula is characterized by obvious rainy and dry seasons. Therefore, it is different from the 11th Asian Games held in China and the 12th Asian Games held in China, which is held in September and October during the cool autumn season. , The opening time was scheduled to December 6th, more than one month after the dry season.

Tang Huan came this time not just to show his face at the opening ceremony and to see the excitement of the sports meeting again, but to have an extremely important purpose.

For example, carefully evaluate the development of Funan, the “social experiment field”, give condolences to the Javanese Chinese refugees resettled in Hanukkah, take a look at the Funan-China railway, and the planned Kara Isthmus Canal project.

It must be pointed out that, compared to the time- and time-famous “Xin-Ma-Thai” tourist route, Funan is now added.

Due to the chaos of the richest man, Funan, which ended the war early, has developed its tourism resources extremely well. Coupled with political and political assistance, Funan has become the first choice for Chinese tourists to travel to Southeast Asia.

Especially after the completion of the railway from Siam to Funan, the capital of China’s Southern Yunnan Province, Spring City, the passenger flow has further increased.

The hosting of the 13th Asian Games in Funan is not only a test of construction achievements over the past ten years, but also created a huge business opportunity, allowing the Siam and Funan railways that the railway passes through to make a lot of money. pen.

Siam was so miserable by the Asian financial turmoil that it was forced to accept the International Monetary Fund’s sub-city covenant. The result was similar to that of South Korea. The domestic people angrily condemned that it had signed a treaty of bereavement and humiliation. How can there be such upright The way of doing business is likable.

Under such circumstances, the voice of the great controversy over the Kra Isthmus Canal project in Siam is now subtly tilting towards the supporter.

Worried about safety? The Funan Navy, which has just beaten Java, the largest country in Southeast Asia, to a swollen nose this year, can **** you.

Worried about not having money? Successfully invested in the California high-speed rail and proved that the world’s richest man who spent tens of billions of dollars is willing to run for you.

In fact, the problem of money is not a problem at all now. The foreseeable beneficiaries of the Kara Isthmus Canal project, including China, Yiben, South Korea, the Philippines, and even Funan’s mortal enemy Annan, have expressed strong interest in participating.

The real resistance comes from complex out-of-day factors.

For example, Singapore and Java along the Strait of Malacca clearly expressed their opposition.

The former is really worried about the damage to the core interests; the latter’s psychology of opposing for the sake of opposition is well understood; as for the attitude of Malaysia ~www.mtlnovel.com~, it is not so clear.

Gein, the Kra Isthmus Canal is located in Siam, which is close to the northern part of Malaysia. Whether it is the southern part of Siam or the northern part of Malaysia, it is a backward area of ​​economic development, so Malaysia is also one of the beneficiaries.

In addition to these conflicts of interest that can be put on the surface, verbally, and openly discussed, there are also various hidden reasons hidden in the depths.

For example, the worry about the Funan navy, which is “poverty and military”, and the fear of the Chinese community, represented by the promoter behind the richest man, who has been suppressing in various forms in Southeast Asian countries…

These worries, the more you can’t get the face, the more resistance you get when you break them apart and discuss them clearly.

But it is an insoluble knot!

How to break the game?

The solution given by the richest man is to use fait accommodating facts to overwhelm others.

Didn’t the Funan Navy be the world’s largest mercenary by your secrets?

If the Kela Isthmus Canal is built and a direct route to the Indian Ocean is added, then the Funan Navy will have a place to release its energy; otherwise, he will be confined in the alley, like a rascal young man who is idle, coming to your door twice in three days. Turn around, think about the consequences!

Isn’t the Chinese considered by you as a hidden danger?

It’s better to develop yourself instead of defending against day and night. After all, the reality is to be faced. After the Asian financial turmoil rages, grief is everywhere, and the Kra Isthmus Canal will definitely stimulate economic development.

In the final analysis, the Kra Isthmus Canal is entirely within Siam, and the decision-making power is naturally in Siam’s hands. The richest man only needs to fix Siam.

As for the others, they are all clouds!
