The cleaner who wipes the butt

"It seems that you are mentally prepared to go to Chicago."

"Yes, I don't have many choices. In today's situation, this is my only chance. However, the situation may be better. The community where I will work is near the University of Chicago, and the security environment should be better than others.

The community is better. Plus, I’m black, so my safety should be guaranteed! At worst, I’ll change into some pullovers or something, hahaha!”

Chicago, University of Chicago!!

The sea-viewing Dragon Field of Enlightenment has appeared!

"Well, now that you have made your decision, all I can say is, I wish you a better tomorrow in Chicago!"

While feeling emotional, Carter took a deep breath, as if he had made some kind of decision in his heart, and said solemnly:

"If you need help with anything, call me! If I can help you, I will try my best! The other thing is the recording of the second program. When the preparations for the program start, someone may call you. You shouldn't

Reject?"

"Of course I won't refuse. Who can refuse that green Franklin?"

While laughing, Brother Guanhai also nodded towards Carter:

"Thank you! Maybe you said this to me because you saw my current fame and value, but I am still grateful for it. This is the first time I have heard such words in the two years I have been in New York."

"You're welcome, you are right. Not every black person is a potential criminal. In my hometown of Georgia, there are also some black friends who are working hard to live. I understand you. If there is a chance, I also hope that black people can

Get true equality. Do you understand what true equality is?”

"But the black community has always suffered from the harm caused by discrimination, just like me! Those who have merit will be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes will be punished! Pay the price for past mistakes and provide certain compensation to the victims. Is this requirement too much?

"

Carter admitted this matter calmly, he did not think it was something he was embarrassed to admit.

Guan Hai frowned slightly. Perhaps it was because it was rare for a white man to support a black man. It was hard to say too much. Or maybe it was because of his slight touch just now that Guan Hai's words were not harsh.

"Yes, this is today's New York Times. Take a look at this article."

"As the producer of the program, I think I should say sorry to you. Although the program "Tucao Conference" itself will have some elements of 'mutual attack', Mr. Reagan's words are certainly not out of subjective malice.

I may have ignored your feelings at that time.”

"Forget it, I don't want to say more. You are about to go to Chicago. When you get there, you may see more different places and see many things you have never seen before. Maybe your ideas will change.

What? We can put this issue aside and discuss it slowly later. I am coming to see you this time, and there is one more thing I want to talk to you about."

In a society like the United States where politics and business are closely linked, businessmen wipe the butts of politicians, and politicians wipe the butts of giants. It all comes and goes, and even the people are generally used to it.

This couldn't be hidden from the other party, and Carter didn't think there was any need to hide it.

Whether to give compensation or not and how to give it.

This is completely a matter of public speaking and mother-in-law speaking. Carter has no intention of arguing.

"It's not too much to say objectively and logically, but if you consider the actual situation, I don't think this is a good approach. Because in reality, the human nature of the executor is a factor that can never be ignored."

"True equality comes from treating everyone equally. To be honest, I don't agree with your previous arguments on the show. I think it is very narrow-minded to unilaterally give preferential treatment to all black people. That will only breed more inequality and racial antagonism! Watch.

Black people can receive money from the federal government without doing anything, but they still receive taxes contributed by countless white people. This will only make white people more hostile to black people!"

"You are right, I am a cleaner. I come here to remove some factors that may be detrimental to them."

Carter felt very helpless. Reagan was clearly acting out of unconscious and subjective malice.

But the butt that needs to be wiped must still be wiped.

"Well, this article is a little untrue."

After talking about the future, we have to talk about the present!

"I don't want to make any false claims. This is an election year. From this untrue article, you should be able to see some clues, right? If you acquiesce, or simply comply with their words, you say something.

, this is not good news for Mr. Reagan."

If it is said that before, due to his words on the show, he was disqualified from several interviews, Guan Hai's tone was very calm, and he could not feel the emotion of resentment. Then at this moment, Carter could feel the calmness that the other party deliberately suppressed.

, a hint of anger can be heard

"I'm just stating an objective fact, a fact that you and I both understand. I didn't come over and put on a condescending attitude of giving alms and tell you, 'Hey, kid, give me a price! How much do you want it for?

"Shut up, or how much money will it cost to perjure me?" Instead, I will put myself in your shoes and analyze the problems inside, trying to persuade you to cooperate with our actions."

Brother Guanhai looked at the article and suddenly raised his head, staring directly at Carter:

"But when you bring up this topic and intend to pressure me to ignore his personal attacks on me, can you say that you care about my performance?"

Not out of subjective malice?

"But it's just bad news, it's trouble! Do you understand? You can't change anything. They may be able to change it, but they don't care about you."

"Are you here to be a lobbyist? No, I should say you are here to be a janitor who wipes the butts of those politicians?"

Carter took out a folded newspaper from his arms, unfolded it, and pushed it in front of Guanhai. At the same time, a finger pointed at the article that criticized Reagan's personal qualities as "needing to be improved."

"Isn't this a sign of respect? Man, I want to discuss with you a solution to the problem that is acceptable to both of us!"

"What's the matter? Tell me! Is there anything I can help with?"

Carter shrugged his shoulders, his expression unchanged:

"I don't like Reagan, although the person who wrote that article is not a good bird. I also understand that he is not a defender who sympathizes with the weak at all. I don't even know how I got involved. If you hadn't given me

Reading this newspaper, I don’t even know. Forget it.”

Brother Guanhai held the newspaper in his hand and squeezed it tightly unconsciously.

He was born in 1961, in Hawaii, where black power is very weak. Even if his family conditions may not be as "tragic" as described in the article, the discrimination he has encountered is certainly not too little.

But Carter also had no intention of being a moral defender. He was just waiting quietly for Guan Hai to follow up, wait for him to figure it out himself, or put forward some conditions.

"That's it, I don't have any conditions to negotiate. Although I know what you said is a bit sophistical, maybe it's just that your handling method is gentler."

"But I do feel a lot better. I won't stand up and say anything good for that person, but I won't deliberately say bad things about him either. This matter has nothing to do with me!"
