In Las Vegas, in the palace belonging to Achilles that was stolen by Themir, Wolfe's wedding is being held.
Looking through the crowded crowd, Benny saw the person standing in the center.
“Over there!”
He pointed to the location of Mr. Cheng and reminded Grudao.
These two lackeys of the General Assembly did not get a good position in today's wedding ceremony and could only stand on the edge of the crowd.
There was no way, there were too many guests attending the wedding of Wolfe and the commander-in-chief's daughter today, and they were too powerful.
"Ha, he can stand in the front row. Who is that woman next to him?"
Gru was a little confused when he noticed that the woman next to Mr. Cheng was not Temir.
Benny squinted his eyes for a long time and answered with some uncertainty.
"Elizabeth Koch, Charles's daughter, did not come, but sent his own daughter."
The daughter of the head of the Koch family.
The fact that Mr. Cheng is standing in the first row doesn't mean anything. Who is the person standing in the first row with him is the key to the problem.
In the American power game, institutionalized and systematic rules belong to Capitol Hill and the White House. At most, there is a Supreme Court. The Pentagon does not have much say in it.
However, in addition to the institutionalized and systematic rules of the game, there is also an underlying rule in the United States that ordinary people cannot access.
Wolf's wedding took this underlying rule to the extreme.
Many senior members of the two houses of Congress came, as did the current federal justices who graduated from the university where Tiffany attended, and the presidents of the United States also came.
But among the people standing in the first row, there were only a few congressmen.
Do they not want to stand in the first row?
No, at least, ordinary senators will not push forward stupidly - that will be regarded as Shabi.
In the silent yet highly dramatic ceremony of courtesy that just concluded, those who were left in the first row were the recognized bigmen.
Prime Minister Turtle, Larry Ellison, Schumer, Diane, Robert Iger, Niu Sen, Mr. Cheng, Elizabeth Koch.
Among them are leaders in American politics and business fields The legendary figure, of course, there is also the unfortunate California Shepherd who has been in the limelight recently.
It stands to reason that for this kind of event involving many big names, the organizers should prepare labels with names.
But most of the guests invited by Wolfe and Tiffany are American ‘insiders’, which makes labeling difficult to arrange.
So, they divided the wedding into two parts. The ceremony was held in the palace courtyard-the guests just stood and blessed silently.
Then, there is the indoor banquet. At that time, the seats can be arranged for the guests according to circles.
“Okay, why do I have a feeling that today is not a wedding, but a coronation ceremony?
Look at these people standing here waiting, our respected Wall Mr. Dracula can directly take office as the first emperor of the United States under their witness."
Chief Gru said sarcastic words, but Benny didn't understand it, so he just thought he was Gru. Just kidding.
"Hahaha, if he becomes emperor, it will be a good thing for us. You can at least make a grand duke - His Royal Highness the Grand Duke of Saint-Loduo~"
Benny's mouth was so damn capable, Gru moved the corners of his mouth with a tense expression and said.
“I will be the Grand Duke of San Luodu if I want, and I will set my sights on Las Vegas. When the time comes, just give me the title of Governor of Las Vegas.”
How bad Saint Luodu is, only the people of Saint Luodu know. Compared to the so-called bullshit City of Angels, Gru would rather choose the Golden Devil's Cave.
“You know, there is a special research school now. They believe that many of the problems in the United States today are caused by not having experienced the feudal stage.
The development of the country should follow A process from slavery to feudalism and then to democracy. After the war of independence, we directly entered a state of coexistence of slavery and democracy.
Later, slavery was eliminated through the Civil War, but after all, we were missing a necessary link in history, so we Americans lack the sense of national subject identity similar to that of Western European countries. "
Gru looked Benny up and down in disbelief and asked.
"Fuck, I'm just joking. You, a fool, won't take it seriously, will you? "
Benny raised his chin, signaling Mr. Gru to fart, and the ceremony began.
——
In the center of the courtyard, Wolfe stood there pushing his dear father.
The commander-in-chief held Tiffany’s hand and walked toward Wolfe amid the sound of music.
After Wolfe took Tiffany's hand from the commander-in-chief, they all faced the guests together, smiling brightly.
Well, no one cares about old Joel - everyone assumes that he is happy too.
But, looking at the guests, the commander suddenly realized.
Today, at least half of the most powerful people in America are here.
Except for Nancy, all the senior core politicians from both parties came, and some of the leaders who had left the stage also sent other members of their families.
A large number of business leaders from the east and west coasts also came. These people have business dealings with the Dracula family, or they want to flatter the leader.
Wolf Dracula, America's top rich man, leader of the California Elephant Party, and the future son of the West Coast Elephant Party.
Tiffany, the daughter of the great commander of the United States, is the holder of the supreme power of the United States. Her father can make the world tremble with one word.
This is undoubtedly a strong alliance!
Then, the commander saw Chan standing with Elizabeth of the Koch family, and he noticed that the two seemed to be chatting happily.
What are they talking about?
The commander-in-chief didn’t know that he was just seriously playing the role he needed to play today.
"He's not a dictator. We don't have anyone on the West Coast who can be a dictator. We don't have many old lunatics like Nancy, do we?"
Mr. Cheng looked at Wolfe and explained to Elizabeth.
The Koch family is not satisfied with the California Elephant Party going it alone, and Chengdu’s move to integrate the California Elephant Party is, in a sense, poaching the Koch family.
But the Koch brothers are old after all, so they are too slow to express their dissatisfaction until now.
However, Elizabeth obviously regarded Wolfe as the talker.
“Well, I look forward to working with you more in the future, Chan, but I’m reserving my opinion on your idea of an ideological alliance with the West Coast Elephant Party.
These states on the West Coast all seem to be close together, but the differences between the north and the south and the east and west are huge, and the sizes of different states are completely incomparable.
Instead of spending money on a game with no foreseeable possibility of success, our family prefers to support specific people. ”
Although Elizabeth is from the Koch family, she is obviously not qualified to agree to Mr. Cheng’s invitation to form a team.
Regarding this opinion, Mr. Cheng nodded noncommittally and said.< br>
“The California Elephant Party welcomes any partner who is willing to work together for a better tomorrow for America, but your future donations are best made through our fundraising committee chair.
Money from the American Conservative Fund is one thing, but specific support for us from a certain party is another. ”
The American Conservative Foundation is one of the core political action committees of the Elephant Party. Many big donors sponsor the congressmen they support through this channel.
But in Mr. Cheng’s view, this There is no need for the old bureaucrats in the Elephant Party to hold back money. The California Elephant Party has its own independence.
"Who is the chairman of your fundraising committee? "Elizabeth's understanding of the California Elephant Party is indeed not deep enough. She doesn't understand. This is President Cheng's attempt to discuss future cooperation models with the Koch family.
"Mr. Crusoe, this is my man. He is also here today. I can give you an introduction later. By the way, he plans to run for mayor of Saint-Loduo - we will fully support him."
It was only then that Elizabeth realized what Mr. Cheng was talking about.
"Wait, wait, your people, so what you are saying is that you and Wolfe are two factions?"
Cheng Daqi explained in a dumbfounded way.
"Ms. Elizabeth, isn't it the same in the Koch family? Mr. Charles teamed up with Mr. David to seize the inheritance rights from the other two brothers. A large organization will inevitably have small internal interest groups.
Wolfe and I are not in two factions, it's just that he wants to overpower me more, but can't, that's all. ”
Mr. Cheng is obviously in danger, but here with Elizabeth, he can still say without blushing that he is the eldest brother of the California Elephant Party.
How to put it, it seems Being tough, but being tough is also a strategy in itself.
The American leader standing at the center of the stage has one philosophy of life - even if he loses, he must declare his victory!
President Cheng has used this strategy many times. Actually, it works pretty well.
"Are you kidding? Chan, are you just Mi'er's boyfriend and her agent, or am I misunderstanding you?"
Elizabeth allowed Mr. Cheng to see the lower limit of the depravity of the American elite.
Compared to her, even Giorgio looks cute.
"I will talk to your father, Elizabeth, you are like an ignorant child, not suitable for entering this cruel game."
At this point, Mr. Cheng said nothing more Even one sentence.
Wasting time with fools is equivalent to wasting life. It seems likely that the legendary career of the Koch brothers will gradually decline due to their death.
For Mr. Cheng, he didn't feel a trace of anger, and even more, he was a little surprised.
Is there any better candidate for alliance than the Koch family?
"What do you mean?" Elizabeth asked a little loudly.
Behind Mr. Cheng, Kevin McCarthy immediately realized what was happening. He shamelessly pushed forward and stood between Mr. Cheng and Elizabeth.
"Elizabeth, long time no see, hahaha."
Leader, Kevin is here!
Mr. Cheng took a step back speechlessly and stood in the crowd.
The big guys around me were happy to see this unexpected episode, but Mr. Cheng still looked calm.
Bullshit!
Elizabeth's face flushed with excitement, but today's occasion was special, and with Kevin's handling, it was difficult for her to continue to have an attack.
Niu Sen smiled and stepped back from the first row with Mr. Cheng. This bitch went to find Mr. Cheng and asked narrowly.
“It seems that a little unpleasantness happened?”
Seeing Niu Sen’s face almost burst into laughter, Mr. Cheng didn’t bother to explain more and changed the topic.
“Why didn’t you come with your aunt today?”
Mr. Zhou Mu was speechless for a moment and replied.
“Both parties didn’t invite her. If you ask me, you can solve the problem while everyone is here at this wedding.
In fact, the matter is very simple, as long as you are willing to give in, I can go to my aunt’s place to make peace.”
To say nothing of peace, Niu Sen just wants to take advantage of the momentum of the California Elephant Party’s rise to pull those who are not crazy in the United States to suppress Nancy. One end.
Mr. Cheng is different from Elizabeth. Not only can he understand what Niu Sen said, but he will not worry about how Niu Sen plans to persuade Nancy.
"Impossible, I agree, but I'm afraid Wolff won't agree to fight with the Imperial Speaker. For him, this matter can greatly accelerate his development."
One mouth is blocked at both ends, this matter Since Mr. Zizui doesn’t tell him to stop, it’s difficult for others to interfere with when to stop.
Wolf is just a cover. What President Cheng wants is to settle the private prison matter first. This front has been delayed for too long.
After securing the private prison, the stalemate with Garcetti and Nancy will continue, and Wolfe will not be able to fly!
Of course, if the cooperation with Koch can be negotiated and led by President Cheng, then the stalemate and invincible situation can be reconsidered.
As for whether the negotiation can be concluded, President Cheng has already decided - it must be done!
No matter how much benefits you offer, no matter how humble you make, you have to get it done at all costs, even if President Cheng is willing to make himself look like the cost.
Wolf is an example among hundreds of brothers and sisters. The new super-rich family chose to use biotechnology to screen on a large scale and selected Wolf!
Achilles and Themir are the best Gu kings. The direct head of the old family Kalamacris has transformed into a stallion. As long as you sow enough seeds, there will be good seedlings!
As for Koch, it has degenerated to the point where it needs fools like Elizabeth to support its appearance. This shows that the problems within this old capital force are huge!
(Heirs can’t, the shares given to them by Charles don’t even have voting rights)
“Chan, of course you have the strength to refuse anyone’s control over you, but you have to understand that America is not one person’s America, and California is not Within a year, many turmoils have caused trouble for others.”
Nancy is under pressure, and President Cheng is also under pressure. It’s just that the commander-in-chief did not persuade President Cheng to stop, and Wolfe did not persuade President Cheng to stop. Stop, even Wood is not going to persuade Mr. Cheng to stop.
No one in the Elephant Party denounced the California Elephant Party’s act of kidnapping Capitol Hill, but in the end they did not dare to say it openly.
Now, it was Niu Sen, a state pastor elected by the Donkey Party, who persuaded President Cheng to stop.
All I can say is that politics is too complicated and subtle.
“It’s all Nancy’s damn fault, don’t you understand? You know better than me who are the big donors behind her who donated money to the Donkey Party!”
成There is always no hesitation or ambiguity at all, and the key to the problem is pointed out directly.
“Niu Sen, there’s no point in pretending to be stupid.
This wave is when we, the Xiang Party, join forces to suppress the political power of those capital forces that have gained the most from globalization!
Once the fight starts, it won't stop easily. Where is this? ”
Mr. Zhou Mu didn’t know how to answer Mr. Cheng’s frankness.
Up to this point in the confrontation between the two parties, both sides have firm demands for their interests. Indeed, as Mr. Cheng said, this is not a simple matter. It's a political struggle, but it involves a huge struggle of interests.
The waves started in San Luodu and rippled in California. Nancy and Mr. Cheng stepped up their efforts together. Now, it has reached a point where it is difficult for them to stop. .
No matter how dissatisfied Nancy is with her madness, they will not stop.
Niu Sen shouted stop, it was even more useless!
"Chan, since everyone has come together through Wolfe's wedding, why can't we have a good talk?
I think these people are not coming because they want to participate A wedding?"
Niu Sen said in a low voice.
Mr. Cheng narrowed his eyes.
Yeah, who the hell cares about Wolfe's wedding? (End of this chapter)
