"He called on believers to endorse him, and if there are one million signatures, he will run for the leadership. Now he has obtained 3 million signatures and officially announced his candidacy." Little George knocked on the table. This was his father.
In the preliminary stage, the biggest competitor is.
"He also has someone to choose?" Ronald expressed disbelief. A great stickman, would anyone in America choose him to be the leader?
"Three million signatures, this is a force that cannot be ignored."
"What's so charming about him?" Ronald looked carefully at Robertson's resume. He claimed to be a Marine combatant who served in Korea.
"Is this man fake? Look at his eyes. He doesn't have the temperament like your father who has participated in the war." Ronald looked at Robertson's oily eyes and didn't believe that such a pair of eyes would grow in a person.
On the face of a man fighting an opponent on land.
These eyes reminded him of Michael Cimino, the director of "The Deer Hunter" back then. He didn't dare to look directly into the camera, as if he was always hiding something. Cimino also faked his military service experience.
"I'll find someone to check. Do you think my father's image should be more of a soldier?"
Little George also felt that his father could shine a fearsome light when needed.
"Veterans are always respected, especially your father who has such a legendary experience. In fact, we can use it. I always feel that watching your father appear on TV, although he does not have the charm of the current commander-in-chief, we
Everyone will feel that the country is led by such a person, and they will feel at ease, and no one will bully us."
Ronald gave his general idea, and Douglas Jr. wrote it down and handed it to George Jr.
"When I go back, I will talk to my mother about your views. She has now found a campaign consultant, Roger Ailes. I heard that he was one of the campaign consultants of the Prime Minister."
…
After all, little George is still the son of an old political family. Seeing that Ronald can give him advice, he feels at ease.
He continued to go out and chat with the upper class here in New York and listen to their opinions and views.
"What do you think?" Little Douglas pulled Ronald and looked at little George who was making vulgar and outrageous jokes in the crowd and asked.
"Fortunately, his father's image is relatively good." Ronald also felt that George Sr. was more of a politician than his son. If George Sr. wanted to choose, he would have to choose a script carefully. Maybe he could play a western cowboy.
?
"Anyway, we have contacted them. This time we are deeply involved in this kind of national election. We have got a ticket for the Staten Island Congressional District and local elections. Waiting for the next mayor,
We can also have some influence when it comes to the election of governors and members of the House of Representatives."
"Then you have to work harder." Ronald, who was not used to this kind of situation where everyone talks nonsense, patted little Douglas.
"Ronald, why are you here?" A rich voice came from behind.
"Why are you here, Arnold? Um...Hello, Maria." Ronald greeted his wife who came with Arnold Schwarzenegger.
"I have always supported the Elephant Party, but you, I thought you supported the Donkey Party like most people in Hollywood?"
"Um... I actually voted for candidates from both parties. I came here with my good friend, Douglas Jr. We were on the wrestling team in high school." Ronald didn't want to reveal his political leanings, so he
Little Douglas rolls out.
"Hello, Mr. Schwarzenegger, I like your movies very much." Douglas Jr. smiled and stepped forward.
"It was a complete coincidence that I actually supported the Elephant Party. At that time, I had just come from Europe and watched a TV debate. The candidate of the Donkey Party was talking about social justice. When I saw it, wasn't it the same as my hometown? I
This is not what I came to America to see.
It happened that I saw Richard, the candidate of the Elephant Party. He talked about small government, free competition, reduction of public expenditures, and tax cuts. When I saw it, I liked this party. From that day on, I have been an Elephant Party member."
"Hahaha", Ronald and Douglas Jr. burst into laughter. Schwarzenegger's acting skills are good. His native country is Austria. These words make people feel as if he comes from the Eastern camp.
"I said, you were asked to star in that movie, what did you think?" Ronald thought of the Joel Silver movie and had approached Schwarzenegger.
"To be honest, I don't want to act. You also know, Ronald, the box office of action movies is not as good as it used to be. If I still rely on my muscles to act, I won't have many years left. Don't you think that my muscles are better than those of starring in movies?"
Was your girth too small?" After leaving Hollywood, in a place where there were no other people in the entertainment industry, Schwarzenegger was no longer polite.
"It's true." Ronald took a look and saw that Schwarzenegger was indeed smaller than before.
"I have to develop some room for comedy performance, so I want to do comedy more. I accepted a comedy film of 'Dragon Brother and Mouse Brother'. Sorry, Ronald."
"I understand that." Ronald also discovered that Stallone's box office appeal was also declining. The audience seemed a little tired of movies that were pure action movies showing off muscles.
"I would like to introduce you to George Jr., the son of the deputy commander." Ronald knew that Schwarzenegger came to New York with his wife who was a descendant of the Kennedy family. It was not for nothing, so he took him and introduced him to George.
George knows.
"It's so annoying. These people are more hypocritical than actors in Hollywood." Ronald couldn't stay for a while before he got bored. The performance component of the speech between politicians was no less than that of actors. Moreover, the acting skills were very poor, and it was difficult to watch.
He just wanted to shout Cut!
Just then the real estate agent called and said that the real estate agent had agreed to sell it to Ronald and wanted to have an interview with him. Ronald decided to go see the house.
…
"Welcome, my friend. This is my wife, welcome to my building." The tall developer of the building was waiting for Ronald in the lobby. The sale of luxury homes took a long time, and Ronald could
Those who pay in full are considered good customers.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Thank you, I heard that you are willing to sell me the duplex apartment on the 58th floor?"
"Of course, you are the one who deserves this building. I wish all the artists in America would buy houses here. What do you think?"
Ronald took the special elevator and went up to the house on the 58th floor. It is a unit with the 59th floor and is connected by elevators and stairs. There are many large bedrooms inside, a cloakroom, a smoking room, a wine warehouse, and a direct private elevator.
There is also a large study room and living room. The existing decoration is in walnut and bronze style, and Ronald is very satisfied with it.
"Come to my place and have a chat. Do you have any movies that you can shoot at my place? I've always wanted to play a cameo role in the movie."
After viewing the house, Ronald initialed the letter of intent and let the agent, accountant, and lawyer handle the rest.
Ronald accepted the invitation and came to the big house on the 66th-68th floor.
"Originally, my house was also in bronze style, but after seeing the decoration of my tenant, Khashoggi, a wealthy Saudi businessman, I decided to upgrade the interior style to the current gold style. I strongly recommend that you do the same after buying the house.
deal with."
"Um...I'll think about it." Ronald was not interested in the nouveau riche style where even the door handles were shiny. He felt that he couldn't ruin a house in a good location like this.
However, this style is very unique, and the owner's taste can be seen at a glance. Ronald had some thoughts, why not hire a Chinese talent to make some Chinese furniture?
"Look, this is an interview I gave in the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Boston Globe.
The current American political scene is dominated by some old-school, incompetent politicians, such as New York Mayor Ed Koch, who also accused me of violating the interests of New York citizens. As a result, two lawsuits he initiated against me failed.
These people play politics every day and can't even repair an ice rink. The Wollman Ice Rink in Central Park has cost Koch $12 million from 1980 to now. I bet him that it will cost less than $1 million.
It can be done.
The result? I modified the design and found a professional company that built ice rinks for the NHL. It only cost US$750,000 and was repaired in four months. I promised to give them a lot of publicity, but they didn't even ask for any profit.
What is this called? This is the art of trading!
It's ridiculous that Koch has lost face and comes to trouble me every day, saying that my building does not meet the tax abatement policy and that he is doomed to fail.
"Come on, I'll give you this book, my hard work. This is the newspaper where I was interviewed. You can read it. It's a lot of wisdom. Tonight you can also read CUU, the interview with me by host Larry King.
It will be broadcast."
Ronald returned to the hotel with the book enthusiastically gifted by the owner. He flipped through it and found that the author column listed Tony Schwartz. Ronald burst out laughing, how stingy this was.
Ronald, who has worked as a screenwriter, knows that if you want to write a book, find a ghostwriter who does not sign and only writes, and the compensation will be twice that of a ghostwriter who requires a signature.
This person was not even willing to pay the money, so he asked the ghostwriter to sign his name in the author column. Anyway, his name is written in large fonts on the cover, above the title, and readers rarely look specifically at the author column on the inside pages.
.The vast majority of readers may still think that he wrote it himself.
"Are you quitting the Donkey Party and joining the Elephant Party now?" Larry King, the famous host of CUU on TV, asked the question to a real estate agent on the TV screen. This was recorded.
Video recording, pretending to be a live interview.
"Yes, I just joined the Elephant Party."
"Okay, why are you being interviewed in the newspaper? Do you want to elect a general?" Larry King asked him bluntly. This is also what the audience wants to know most.
"No, no, I haven't decided yet..."
"Shxt! It seems you really want to..." After hearing this, Ronald sat up. He dug out the interviews with him in the New York Times, Washington Post and other newspapers given by the other party. The more he read, the more he felt...
He guessed it correctly. Ronald picked up the phone and dialed a number.
