Chapter 1529 Frank
Frank Underwood, Donkey Whip.
Abbreviation... Forget it, it's not abbreviation, it's easy to be called back for review.
The so-called party whip refers to a person in charge of discipline, similar to the character of Jiang Lin’s father.
Within the Donkey Party, Frank is the third person, second only to the President and Speaker.
In this election, Jose has a great chance of re-election, and Frank hopes to further serve as Secretary of State.
If he can successfully accumulate four years of experience in the position of Secretary of State, he has the hope of becoming a representative of the donkey party and competing for the 2016 Magnesium National Election.
Seeing Li Rui enter the door, Frank pointed to the sofa opposite and made a sorry gesture.
Li Rui nodded and sat silently on the sofa.
Frank continued to look into the microphone: "Linda, of course I support your idea. I will find a way to get the members of the parliament to support it. Please rest assured, I will convince them one by one, yes, I will convince them!"
Li Rui narrowed his eyes. He had some understanding of the personnel within the donkey party through Fu Shande. If Linda guessed correctly, it should be Linda Vasquis, the chief of staff around Jose, who is known as the "second president".
a strong woman.
It seems that Jose's policy encountered some resistance and trouble among the members of the House of Representatives. Through Linda, he communicated with Frank and then asked Frank to convince those opposing members.
But Li Rui pretended not to understand and glanced at the room with his eyes wandering.
This should be a special room for Frank to meet some guests who are inconvenient to meet in public. From the first second of entering, Li Rui felt a sense of oppression in the eardrum. It is estimated that the walls of the room were made of sound insulation materials, even if they were inside.
When I fired with a machine gun, I couldn't hear anything outside.
And Li Rui believed that there would be no eavesdropping here, and no words said in this room would be spread outside.
Not knowing what Linda said, Frank's voice grew higher and higher, and his tone was not too happy.
"I know what to do. Enough, I will do it, I will, just do it!" Frank finally hung up the phone unhappily.
Li Rui felt that the scene was a bit awkward and really didn't know what to say and do.
Frank raised his head and smiled slightly, "Some women are really unreasonable, I still prefer to deal with men."
If you put this outside, it will undoubtedly be suspected of gender discrimination. But if you say it in this room, Li Rui didn't know if Frank trusted him too much or a test, so he smiled and said, "I'm very
I like to deal with women, especially with beautiful women.”
"For example, Jennifer Lawrence?" Frank smiled and stood up to Li Rui.
Li Rui also stood up, shook hands with Frank and smiled, "She is a very delicious woman."
"Sit." After shaking hands, Frank and Li Rui sat on the sofa together and chatted like old friends, "I've watched Jennifer Lawrence's movies. Her acting skills are very good, but not the most beautiful one.
You know that we Chinese people prefer blond hair, blue eyes, hot body, and bad brains. She doesn't meet these conditions, but as you said, she has a special taste, a kind of cleverness.
The taste.”
Li Rui said: "I like smart and somewhat personalized women. My beautiful skin is the same. I have one in a million choices for smart souls. Compared to physical communication, I am more addicted to soul communication."
Frank smiled and said, "It sounds like Claire and me... When I first met Claire, what attracted me the most was her wisdom. At that time, I was like a country bumpkin who knew nothing in front of her!"
The topic has finally come on track.
Li Rui nodded and said, "Claire is indeed an elegant and intelligent lady. My cooperation with her on the water purification program is very pleasant, and I also appreciate her help to people in the poor areas."
Frank smiled slightly and once again pulled the topic of getting on track: "I heard that you will attend tomorrow's Oscars. Are you confident of winning the award?"
Li Rui said: "I am just an investor, and I have no idea whether I can win the award. I am already very satisfied with being able to go to the Oscars to take a look."
Frank said: "I invested millions of magnesium, just to go and have a look?"
Li Rui said: "This money is just used to knock on the door of Hollywood. I will invest more money in the future. I believe that as long as I persist, I will stand on the Oscar podium one day."
Frank nodded with a smile and said softly: "Thank you for your support for Claire."
Li Rui said: "I also care about people who cannot drink clean water in poor areas. It is my honor to be able to do some work for the water purification plan."
Frank said: "After getting your help, Claire has been much more relaxed recently. However, she has been in a little trouble recently..."
Li Rui thought to himself, I'm afraid it's not Claire who is in trouble but you.
Of course, part of the debt raised by the water purification program is used for people in poor areas, but some of it must have flowed into the hands of Frank and Claire through various legal or gray channels, and then become the donkey party.
Campaign funds.
The general election is about to be held in 8 months. As an important figure in the Donkey Party, Frank also needs to raise funds for the campaign. It is estimated that he has been under a lot of fundraising pressure, otherwise he would not have taken the risk of finding Li Rui whom he did not want to contact before.
Li Rui knew it very well, but deliberately pretended to be stupid: "What kind of trouble is it?"
Frank said carefully: "Claire just went to Guinea and Congo in the Philippines, where he saw many elderly and children suffering from malaria due to lack of clean water, and died miserably due to lack of medical care and medicine.
I was greatly touched and wanted to do something for those people, but I encountered some financial difficulties."
Li Rui knew that it was asking for money, so he said with a sad look: "I am also very concerned about the drinking water of the Filipino people. It is so heartbroken to hear their experience! Can I do something for the poor Filipino people
What?”
Frank glanced at him, his mouth slightly raised.
They all like smart women because they are all smart men. Smart men never need to make anything clear, but it seems that everything is said very clearly.
Frank lowered his voice: "Claire wants to raise 20,000 simple water purification equipment for Philippines. These equipment are easy to operate and use activated carbon filters...it can provide a clean water source...it costs about 3 million magnesium..."
Li Rui was like being in the Eagle Language Examination Hall for the College Entrance Examination, and he didn't care about the dozens of words about water purification equipment in the middle. All the key points were placed on the most critical words.
When Li Rui heard about 3 million magnesium, he wanted to laugh a little.
The politicians in the Magnesium Country are so pitiful, and it is worth mobilizing for such a little money.
So he smiled and said, "I respect Claire's career very much and am willing to do something for the people of the Philippines. In addition... I heard from David that you and Claire have provided a lot of help in the filming of "House of Cards", so I
Willing to provide this funding.”
Frank smiled satisfied.
Before meeting Li Rui, Frank made a lot of preparations and asked Claire and Doug. He knew that Li Rui was very generous and was very interested in sponsoring the donkey party.
As expected, Li Rui agreed to provide 3 million magnesium without any hesitation. With this money, not only can the water purification plan be used to harvest a wave of reputation in the Philippines, but also solve his fundraising problem.
