Chapter 423 The Feast of Wolves 1
The villa of Tamir is very large, and Benny, who came in advance, was arranged by Mier’s housekeeper to wait in a side hall.
However, this clever broker-type staff member discovered clues from the motorcade parked near the fountain in the front courtyard of the villa.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives is so powerful that she can’t hide her even if she wants to.
Benny is certainly aware of the complex relationship between BEC coins and New Times. The share of this cryptocurrency project plays a decisive role in the conversion of shares of Chengdu for New Times shareholders.
However, BEC and LCE are both projects directly under the management of Chengdu. Although Benny is the vice president of Xinshi, he is only at the entry level in Xinshi's management system.
Vice President, it sounds bluffing. Benny’s only job is to provide personnel consulting for Mr. Cheng, Lisa, and Mier. At most, he will be specifically responsible for some sensitive public affairs in the future. relationship activities.
Now there are three vice presidents in Xinshi. The other two are from Xizhou (Grew) and OC (Fraser, Mier’s people). They have more power than Benny, but the senior The positions of vice president and executive vice president are still vacant.
This is directly related to the fact that Xinshi's business rationalization has not been completely completed. Due to the sensitivity of many of its businesses, both Cheng Daqi and Mi'er have reservations about airborne promotions.
But Benny saw clues from Will's activities in Washington.
He had known about Niu Sen's support for BEC before, and he had found out about Will's search for the deputy director of NITA. Now, Benny saw Madam Speaker's motorcade parked at his boss's house.
Thinking of how he had solved Mike Peng's matter, the vice president couldn't help but think about it for a while, and his thoughts were surging in his heart.
However, the new situation outside the window interrupted Benny's reverie. Through the window, he saw Mr. Cheng and Temir walking Niu Sen and Nancy into the car, and they hugged each other goodbye.
However, it seems that Mr. Cheng and Niu Sen talked a few more words, and I don’t know what Mr. Cheng mentioned, so that Zhou Mu was as happy as a fifty-year-old child.
"Mr. Benny, Miss Tamire and the respected Chan now have time to see you, please come with me."
Mi'er's secretary opened the door to the side hall and motioned for Benny to follow her.
The vice president nervously adjusted the collar of his suit, took a deep breath, followed the waitress, and listened to the secretary's instructions.
"The lady is not very happy, please don't make her angry later."
This is not because the secretary feels bad for Benny, it's just because Mi'er is angry, and everyone suffers from it.
Being able to work under Mi'er for such a long time means that their subordinates have a mature set of service experience.
"Thank you, thank you, but can I know what happened?"
"I don't know, don't ask questions here."
Benny stopped talking. He used to Cheng Daqi doesn't have any special views on Temir. I always feel that the two may have a higher starting point than me, but there is no fundamental difference between them.
It’s just that you are the second generation and son-in-law. I, Benny, do not have this condition, so I work for you.
Now, Benny, who is gradually getting familiar with the BEC incident, has the feeling of seeing the true face of the giant beast.
It turned out that there was no essential difference between Temir and Cheng Daqi and his previous boss.
Thinking of this, Benny shook his head.
No, there are still some.
Robert belongs to the front desk of an interest group. He is essentially the highest-level working emperor, but no matter how powerful he is, he still beats workers.
Mr. Cheng and Mi'er belong to a new generation of interest group leaders of their own, and they are both too young, at least younger than Benny.
".You still want Nancy to block the turmoil in Congress for you, Chan, you are too naive!
She is an old lunatic. If you gave her a chance today, she will definitely take the initiative to secretly instigate someone in the future. Some people are attacking us - the scope is not limited to your car-building project."
Mi'er and Mr. Cheng have reached a certain level of agreement with the uncles and nephews from the California gang, and there are some differences between both parties. In areas of close interest, they will stand together.
Obviously, Mi'er was dissatisfied with Mr. Cheng's response just now.
That is to say, Niu Sen and Nancy are here, so she can't name them directly. Now she is starting to complain after the fact, putting pressure on President Cheng.
"Ha, why do you underestimate me so much, Mi'er, I actually am."
"Chan, Miss, Benny is here."
Cheng Daqi stopped to explain. , looking towards the door, Benny was bowing slightly to greet them.
“Hmph!”
Mi’er snorted coldly at Mr. Cheng, stood up and left without even looking at Benny.
Mr. Cheng agreed with her about Benny. He had the potential to be useful, but he just needed some testing.
The specific test is up to Mr. Cheng - Cheng Daqi and Mi'er still have some trust in each other.
"Come, please sit down. You didn't speak much during the meeting this morning. Is it because you don't understand the situation in the new era?"
Pointing to the seat where Niu Sen sat just now. , Mr. Cheng motioned for Benny to sit down and talk.
The morning meeting was the first strategic meeting for new era executives and core managers to gather together. Everyone except Mi'er attended.
Mi'er doesn't come forward purely because of her special status. Her family inheritance has made her accustomed to not playing the role of a big capitalist on the front desk - making videos and becoming an Internet celebrity is another matter.
"Yes, I just joined Xinshi not long ago. Didn't Lisa preside over the meeting today? I see that Mr. Gru and Mr. Fraser didn't speak much, so"
See you Benny misunderstood what Mr. Cheng meant and answered a little awkwardly. Mr. Cheng waved his hand and said.
"Okay, there's not so much to pay attention to. It's just that your task is quite special. Just report some things to me or Mi'er alone. You actually did a pretty good job.
I'm looking for you today. , I want to ask you what difficulties you have in working in Washington. The public relations department is critical for special non-profit entities like New Times.”
Benny felt a little more relaxed. He didn't have time to think about Lisa's relationship with Mr. Cheng and Mi'er, but complained first.
“Most of the work in Washington is going smoothly. The only trouble is that we don’t have a branch or department in Washington. Sometimes I need more manpower, which may be inconvenient. "
"How many people are needed?"
Cheng Daqi pondered for a few seconds. Considering the sensitivity of the public relations department, he decided to transfer some of the personnel rights within the department. Delegate to Benny.
"Three, recruiting a few smart people can help us avoid risks, BOSS."
Benny replied with some apprehension.
This is what a working man is like. He clearly wants more, but he is afraid that Mr. Cheng will remember what he wants, so he only dares to mention three.
New times, loyalty!
“Hahaha,” Mr. Cheng couldn’t help but laughed.
"Benny, do you think we are a grassroots team? Why don't you first talk about your views on the public relations department? How do you think such a department should conduct business?"
Benny replied awkwardly.
"The Washington branch only needs three people. One is responsible for daily maintenance of our key contacts, one is responsible for collecting the latest information related to new business, and one is handling some... well, sensitive matters."
The new vice president gradually found the feeling. He no longer took the pressure of this conversation to heart, but unfolded his blueprint entirely from a business perspective.
“As for the establishment of the public relations department, Chan, I may not be very proficient in this matter, but I can make some observational sharing from my experience working at Disney. Disney’s public relations department consists of three types One type is people who have held important positions in the government. They either entered Disney after retirement, or entered Disney after there was no hope of promotion. In short, these people have served in the public sector, and they are necessary people. .
The second type of people are friends of certain key people. This type of people is relatively mobile. We often hire them for one or two years and let them leave when the matter is over - their salary may be higher than part of the salary. The executives are high, but it's legal.
The third type of people are specific business leaders. Although they do not have experience and special connections within functional departments, they are often the core of the public relations department and the specific living managers. Need someone to do it.
If Xinshi intends to formally establish a reliable public relations and public relations department, it will require scientific planning. I cannot do it alone. I may need more guidance from you or Ms. Temir. "
Mr. Vice President said a lot, focusing on the last sentence.
"Hahahaha, yes, yes, Benny, I was right to invite you over. Just press your The idea is to find some people first. I am looking forward to what changes you can make for the new era. ”
Seeing that Daqi recognized his ability, Benny stopped hiding it and asked directly.
“I have established contact with the head of Mike Peng’s office in Washington. Do you have any further requirements for this work?”
Capital supports politicians, which belongs to the United States. In the default gameplay, Benny does not feel any psychological pressure from his actions, he just wishes he could do better.
A new capital group is rising, and he is lucky enough to join it and become one of the key figures. This is much better than being an aide to some working emperor.
“Washington, DC, just maintain the status quo. We don’t have any key interest demands there at the moment. Things that happen in California can be resolved in California.”
Benny guessed that the "things that happened in California" that Mr. Cheng mentioned were probably referring to the investigation of BEC, and the fact that Nancy and Niu Sen, two big bosses from the California gang, came to personally visit also showed Mr. Cheng's strength in California.
Mr. Vice President is a little frustrated.
He and Mr. Cheng met at Gru’s wedding. Now, Gru has changed from the police chief to Mr. Cheng’s subordinate and his colleague. Mr. Cheng has become the most prominent capital company in California. One of the guys.
Capital never refers to the amount of money, but a kind of production relationship. The power established by the Chengdu can influence the state pastoralists in California and control immigration at the bottom. There are also many sources of help in the middle.
From the perspective of the construction of the relationship network and the extension of the power system, the strength of Chengdu is not much worse than that of the old capitalists.
"I still have a more challenging task that I want you to get involved in, Benny. Your characteristics in certain aspects are key, which is why we will appoint you as the vice president of New Times.
< br>I have a consensus with Mr. Crusoe, Mr. Niusen and others that the prison system in Saint-Louis and even California is under too much pressure due to the long-term deterioration of public security
From California. From a financial perspective, privatization and outsourcing of prison services is an option. Mr. Zhou Mu came here today to talk to us about this matter.
Do you know anything about the private prison industry? ”
Okay, okay, Xinshi’s business can be so rich, right?
Benny suppressed the shock in his heart, thought for a few seconds, and then spoke.
“Chan, there have been many public companies in the private prison industry, but you may not know that in California, because of the Donkey Party’s own agenda and the composition of the electorate, there is a powerful anti-prison privatization political group .
There are two representatives, one is the Political Correct People Group and the other is the left-wing progressive faction of the Donkey Party, both of whom are clearly opposed to prison privatization."
Cheng Daqi nodded with satisfaction. explained.
“I know, so Nancy is here too. It’s not easy to meet our Madam Speaker.
Moreover, prison privatization is a good measure from the perspective of administrative costs. From the perspective of improving the financial situation, we have allies, don't we? "
"You mean? "
"Don't think too much, Mr. Crusoe and I have set up a financing platform. I need you to help me contact some key people and convince them to participate.
Our private prison business will start from San Luodu. This work is specific.
Your task is very simple. Set up the public relations department of the New Times to promote private prisons. Oriented toward project completion, a preliminary framework is first built to lay the foundation for future work.
On the other hand, if you sell our financing bonds, I will give you a 1% commission. "
Four hundred million, one percent is four million. Benny doesn't have a big appetite. He only wants to eat a small part to be satisfied.
"Chan, I can find someone else. People.”
“Yes, but you have to note that our financing targets are specific, which requires you to do a good job in target screening, which is not an easy task.
"If it is limited to San Luodu, I guess it won't be too difficult, you can rest assured!" Benny promised.
"Yes, the target for the first phase is limited to Saint-Loduo, and we will discuss the future in the future."
Mr. Cheng replied with a smile, he liked Benny very much.
It is not without reason that this man has become Robert's staff due to his broad network of contacts. Mr. Cheng always feels very comfortable communicating with him.
After sending Benny off, Cheng Daqi could finally have a good chat with Mi'er.
“Those two bitches didn’t make any clear promises in the end, but you showed a flaw, and it wasn’t a flaw.
Chan, this is not the level you should be. Don't tell me another 'profound and elusive' trick.
We are not poor gamblers without chips, I don’t like taking risks.
Now, if we still take risks, what is the point of our previous efforts? "
Themir doesn't like Cheng's weak style of play. There is no option to show weakness in the behavioral pattern of someone like her who is deeply influenced by European and American culture.
"Oh, what flaws are there? ? ”
Mr. Cheng poured himself a glass of white wine with a smile, sat diagonally across from Mi'er and asked.
“Jia is your key person in building the car, and it coincides with the BEC investigation. If Niu Sen and Nancy are made aware of this matter, they will not be interested in your use of his hands to rectify the LAPD. .
Your layout in the automotive field has not even begun, just like Nancy shows weakness, this will allow her to see the opportunity to blackmail you.
In the end, you let them take care of what you are optimistic about. Newcomers in the political world are essentially putting the people you secretly support in front of their mouths!”
Temiel understood very well that Niu Sen and Nancy seemed passive today, but there was nothing substantial at all! Strategic mistake.
Mr. Cheng is strong, but not really strong. His strength contains a clear element of showing weakness.
“So you can see it too, Mi’er, do you think Niu Sen and Nancy can see it?”
“Hahaha, you are a self-righteous man, Chan, do you think Will they understand your sincerity?
No! They will use these excuses to threaten you!"
Cheng Daqi shrugged and poured Mi'er a glass of wine, laughing. road.
"I don't believe it, let's take a look."
Looking at the cup raised by Mr. Cheng, Mier clinked it angrily.
“I just don’t understand why you still do this when we have such a huge advantage.”
There are also staunch hard-liners among President Cheng’s forces, such as Mi’er.
Her current dissatisfaction is based on Mr. Cheng’s compromising behavior.
From her perspective, Mr. Cheng’s decision was simply unreasonable!
