Chapter 1169 Brothers in Suffering (First update, please subscribe)
Although the script exchange is very enjoyable, it has to end. After all, they are going to participate in the film exhibition.
Although he has no interest in the film exhibition itself, but for the stars from various countries at the film exhibition... Li Yi'an also has a distant view. Of course, if he encounters the right one, he can play with it. It's not impossible.
After all, to increase production and serve the country is to take one’s own responsibility.
Li Yian has always been the first to take responsibility.
However, talking about scripts is just a hobby, serious things still need to be done.
Although various affairs in Nanyang are under the responsibility of the chief minister, there are always some issues that need to be handed over to Li Yian's case for his personal decision, most of which involve foreign affairs.
For example, the upcoming US election is a top priority for Nanyang.
"Currently, according to outside analysis, the current Vice President Nixon has the highest probability of winning. After taking office as Vice President four years ago, he not only got rid of his old image, but also had a close relationship with Nixon during his visits to Latin America, especially the Soviet Union. Ruschov's "Kitchen Debate" established an image of a brave and responsible politician, which was welcomed by all walks of life in the United States, so he successfully won the nomination of the Republican presidential candidate. "
Li Guoren reported on the situation of the U.S. election. At that time, looking through the information in his hand, Li Yian's lips curled up, they are all old friends.
They are indeed old friends!
Take Nixon for example. Like McCarthy, he was an anti-Soviet pioneer. He insisted on investigating former senior State Department official Alger Hiss, and finally determined that he was a Soviet spy, which ultimately led to Hiss being imprisoned for several years - -In those years, he and McCarthy sent many Roosevelt people to prison.
It was also at that time that, because of McCarthy's relationship, he became Li Yi'an's old friend.
In fact, it was under the guidance of Nixon that McCarthy did not foolishly target the military and provoke those guys during the period when the military had the greatest influence. Presumably, McCarthy was In another world, people who had their heads kicked by donkeys actually provoked the military. The experience of more than 20 million people serving in the military during World War II has made the current military's influence far greater than any group.
However, under the guidance of Li Yi'an and the guidance of Nixon, McCarthy did not get kicked in the head this time, nor did he lose his political future, become addicted to alcohol, and finally died of acute hepatitis. Now he I am still working hard for the United States on Capitol Hill. Of course, I still treat my old friends with the same courage and courage as before.
But in any case, McCarthy's era was over.
As for Nixon, he became Li Yi'an's old friend for a very simple reason - during the 1952 Eisenhower election, the media exposed the scandal of Nixon's campaign fund as his campaign partner, and Eisenhower had considered replacing him. His senior advisers asked Dewey to call Nixon and ask him to resign. At this time, Nixon was on the TV station, preparing to go on a program to clarify the matter of campaign funds, and he was immediately shaking with anger.
At this time, it was Li Yian who came forward to help him resolve the crisis - with proper public relations, neither the TV station nor the radio station further broadcast the scandal. This allowed him to get through the difficulties smoothly.
During the eight years with Eisenhower, Nixon had to try his best to please Eisenhower by attacking his opponents or adhering to his duties. Eisenhower provided him with a different role as vice president than before, allowing him to play a key role in both domestic and foreign affairs. Before Nixon, the vice president was just a useless decoration, which is why the American media called Nixon "the first modern vice president."
In the past eight years, Nixon has been very grateful to Li Yi'an, and he has exerted some influence on many aid cases to Nanyang.
A proper old friend!
“So, we believe that Nixon is very likely to become the next president of the United States. My suggestion is that we should send personnel to show our support.”
There is nothing wrong with Li Guoren’s analysis. Nixon is currently in the limelight. Last year's famous "Kitchen Debate" won him the favor of many American people.
No matter from any point of view, he seems to be sure of victory.
“What about Kennedy?”
Li Yian asked rhetorically.
"Kennedy officially announced his candidacy for president on January 2 this year, and subsequently won a key victory in the primary election. As a candidate for the Democratic People's Republic of China, based on the information currently available, Kennedy has a relationship with Nixon. They have many similar experiences.
They both had frail and sickly childhoods, both served in the navy during World War II, and both entered Congress in 1947. However, they are very different in terms of family background. . Kennedy was born in a prominent family in Massachusetts and had a good life since he was a child. He traveled to Europe twice during his college years and was very close to many celebrities.
If Nixon is. An entrepreneurial young man from a small town, Kennedy was a wealthy second generation living in a big city. Although they came from different backgrounds, the Kennedy family had funded Nixon's Senate campaign, and Kennedy also said he was happy to see Nixon win. .
It is worth mentioning that Kennedy’s senatorial office was once located opposite Nixon’s vice president’s office. Nixon and Kennedy had a good personal relationship..."
Isn’t it very American!
Isn’t it quite a lighthouse!
The so-called entrepreneurial young people in small towns ultimately rely on the support of their big families.
Those "American aristocrats" are the real masters behind the scenes in the United States. As for young entrepreneurial youth in small towns, they are often nothing more than white gloves!
Thinking of the marriage that Peggy arranged for her son, Li Yian sighed with emotion and became more convinced of the idea of a "modern Habsburg family".
Perhaps it is impossible to occupy the whole world, but as long as there are enough sons, it is not impossible to control the world behind the scenes through marriage between consortiums.
Looking through the information of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, compared with the emphasis on Nixon, there is very little attention on Kennedy. Like Nixon, Kennedy is also an old friend, but this old friend...the relationship is closer than ordinary friends. After all, he is the second generation of rich people, and there is not much need for help. As for politics, with the Kennedy family here, there is no need. Help from others.
Staring at the information in hand.
Those cold numbers and those stiff charts are just like the problem-solving process of problem solvers, who finally came up with an answer.
Turning directly to the end, you will see a paragraph written on the last page: In summary, there is reason to believe that Nixon will win this election.
At this time, Li Guoren also reached the last part of the report, saying:
"...So, to sum up, we do not think Kennedy can win the election."
< br>This judgment... is correct, at least on the surface, but they overlooked one point. After thinking about it, Li Yian took out a photo of the two people and asked:
"Look at them. …”
Putting the two photos on the table, Li Yian asked:
"If it were you, who would you choose among the two of them?"
"What?"
Li Guoren was stunned and looked at Your Excellency with some confusion.
"Guoren, the times have changed now. Now is the era of television. There are fifty to sixty million televisions in the United States. The television era is coming. This era not only presses the human body on the sofa , and has profoundly affected human politics and economy.”
Li Yi'an pointed his finger at Kennedy and said:
"Look at him, he looks much more photogenic than Nixon!"
The 1960 election was the first election changed by television. , Nixon, who had been the Vice President of the United States for eight years, ran for president. His opponent was the handsome Kennedy. At that time, Americans watched a presidential debate on television for the first time. The final survey showed that those who listened to the debate on radio mostly believed that Nixon won, while those who watched on television believed that Kennedy would win.
The final result is: Kennedy won.
Compared to Nixon, Kennedy is undoubtedly a "television president". He is very aware of the importance of emerging media, which will allow him to go beyond Congress and directly face voters in a relatively casual and personal way. .
Kennedy skillfully and appropriately appeared on television, giving the American people a positive impression. The scene changed the culture of American presidential campaigns, and he and his wife, Jacqueline, became symbols of the country's energy and creativity.
“The handsome John F. Kennedy is the natural darling of television. He has the upper hand in terms of image. Perhaps Nixon is experienced and has a slight upper hand in the debate. But on the TV screen, the two of them The contrast between his personal image is very strong, so I think... he has the potential to challenge Nixon."
Of course Li Yi'an would not be too strict with his words, even if he knew the future, he would not be able to say it. Too absolute.
Li Guoren was surprised when he heard what Li Yian said, but he had to admit that the answer he gave was very possible. People are easily affected by vision.
"Your Excellency, if from this aspect, Kennedy is likely to pose a threat to it, then... we should hedge our bets."
Li Yian said "Yes" and said:
"Let's bet on both ends first, but in the end, you always have to choose. Both of them have great potential. Even if one party fails, the losing party will It will come back in the future, so I have to control the pace, well... first send people to donate 1 million US dollars in a private capacity. After all, they are all old friends and cannot favor one another."
Nixon will definitely do it in the future. He is making a comeback, so this money cannot be saved. After he fails, he can burn the cold stove and deepen his relationship. Compared with the rich second generation like Kennedy who lacked everything, Li Yi'an preferred to deal with young people from small towns like Nixon. After all, their resources were limited and they needed help from the outside world.
What is an old friend?
Of course they help each other.
It's a pity that these two old friends don't live long. One of them can't last a few years before his imagination runs wild. But what about the other one? He directly chose to listen to Qianggen, and was exposed by several reporters. In the end, he became the only president in American history to be impeached.
This is really... a pair of brothers in need!
It’s a bit difficult to be their spiritual mentor! But this year you can choose a time to visit the United States and talk to them. No matter what, there is always something that a spiritual teacher needs to do.
After all, only by becoming a spiritual mentor can the relationship between old friends be further deepened.
“Okay, I understand what to do.”
After handling the matter of the two brothers in distress, Li Yian picked up another report, which was provided by the Secret Intelligence Service. As soon as the document was unfolded, Li Yian was slightly stunned and said in surprise:
"This is ?”
The report contained a stack of photos, aerial photos.
