Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

Chapter 747 Reagan’s campaign party (two in one)

The next Friday night.

Hollywood is very lively and the stars are shining brightly.

Former California Governor Ronald Reagan held a grand party in Hollywood to promote his presidential campaign, inviting Hollywood giants and celebrities in the industry.

Reagan served as governor of California for two terms. He made many mistakes in California and was very popular with the people. Therefore, it was basically unsurprising that California would support him.

However, in order to avoid being stolen and to get more support from Hollywood, Reagan still had to deal with the relationship with Hollywood giants, and at the same time express his importance to the people of California and let them vote for him.

There were many reporters taking photos outside the hotel.

Lin Baicheng did not come here with Carrie Fisher. He didn't want to be in the newspapers because of this. When he came to the hotel, he went in very low-key.

The reason why he was able to go inside in a low-key manner was thanks to Lin Baicheng not letting the Stretch Lincoln drive over. Otherwise, with the ostentation of the Stretch Lincoln, it would be strange for reporters not to pay attention to him.

"Alan, good evening, thank you for coming to the party tonight."

As soon as Lin Baicheng entered the hotel, Jean Carter from the Reagan campaign team came over to him.

"Tonight is Mr. Reagan's campaign party. There's no reason why I shouldn't come."

Lin Baicheng smiled and shook hands with Jean Carter. When he decided to hold this party, he not only received an invitation, but Reagan even called him personally. There was no reason for him to refuse.

Besides, Lin Baicheng knew that Reagan would succeed in the election. As long as his rebirth did not cause such a huge change in the replacement of the US president, Reagan would succeed. It was necessary for him to have a good relationship with Reagan, not to mention that he had already spent a lot of money. The flowers are gone.

Jean Carter greeted: "Alan, please come inside, Mr. Reagan is already waiting for you."

"please!"

Lin Baicheng signaled and followed Jean Carter inside.

On the way, Lin Baicheng met many acquaintances. There were many important officials from the Elephant Party coming to the party tonight, including the Reagan campaign team. Lin Baicheng had met all of these people.

Although Lin Baicheng's relationship with these people is not necessarily as good as that with Jean Carter, they still have acquaintances. They both know that they are in the same camp and are their own people, and they all hope that Reagan can succeed in the election.

Only when Reagan succeeds in the election and becomes president can everyone benefit, otherwise all the early efforts will be in vain.

"Ellen, long time no see!"

Soon, Lin Baicheng saw Reagan, and Reagan also saw him. After saying hello to the person he was chatting with, he walked towards Lin Baicheng.

"Long time no see, Reagan!"

Lin Baicheng and Reagan shook hands enthusiastically to show their happiness.

The age difference between Lin Baicheng and Reagan is about fifty years, but they get along with each other on an equal footing. They don't look at age here, but at strength and social status.

Lin Baicheng is a rich man, a capitalist, and one of the big donors to Reagan's campaign, so Reagan must treat him as an equal and even try to please him.

Regardless of whether it is Reagan from the Elephant Party or another candidate from the Donkey Party, before becoming president, they are just presidential candidates and nothing at all. They must please their donors and let them continue to support them. Only in this way can they have success. May become president, the ultimate winner.

Only after becoming president did Reagan and other candidates no longer need to deliberately try to please their big donors, but they could not offend their donors and even had to maintain friendly relations with them.

After all, running for president is not just once. The general election will begin again in four years. If the president wants to be re-elected, he still needs the support of big donors.

It is precisely for this reason that after a successful presidential election, he will reward big donors so that they can continue to support him during his administration.

Reagan said: "Alan, I still need your support next."

"I will give my full support, and I believe you will be successful in the election!"

Lin Baicheng responded. Although he had said this many times, Reagan often asked for his support, so he could only respond again.

The reason why Reagan often mentions support is because before the election is successful, any accident may happen. In the middle, a funder may suddenly not be optimistic about him and choose not to support him anymore, but to support his competitors, so but He will stabilize all the sponsors who support him until the election is successful.

As long as he can succeed in the election, there is little chance that the sponsor will change his mind. Even if the sponsor changes his mind, as president, as long as he does not do too badly in the past four years in power, there will be no shortage of sponsors to support him. Re-elected.

"Alan, how are you preparing your charity fund?"

Reagan was very concerned about this matter. After all, it was the right to use US$30 million. Although it could only be used for charity and could not be used by his campaign team at will, charity could also promote him and gain the support of a large number of people. favor and gain support from more people.

"I was just about to tell you about this today. The charity fund has been established and is ready to be officially announced next Friday and start doing charity."

Lin Baicheng is still very concerned about the establishment of the charity fund. In addition to his intention to win people's hearts, he also wants to have peace of mind.

Today is the age of science and technology. We must believe in science in everything. Lin Baicheng was right to think so in the past, but rebirth can happen. No one can guarantee whether ghosts and gods exist, so do something if you have the ability. Good things are not bad things, they should be regarded as accumulating merit.

Doing good deeds and accumulating merit is of course the best if it is really useful. Even if it is useless, it is okay. Lin Baicheng can still have peace of mind. For this reason alone, the expenditure of the charity fund is worth it.

"I will definitely go and support you then."

Reagan said something immediately, and then asked: "Ellen, where is your charity fund?"

"Headquarters in New York."

Lin Baicheng said: "It is up to you, Reagan, to plan and designate charities for the 30 million U.S. dollars of charity funds. I do not have any requirements for specific charity objects. It is all up to you. However, the handling must be handed over to my charity fund. It’s just a good time to train and train people’s hands.”

"Thank you so much Alan!"

Reagan was very happy to hear that Lin Baicheng was true to his word: "Don't worry, Allen, I will let my team plan the charity, determine the beneficiaries, where to do charity, etc., and I will definitely cooperate with your charity fund at that time." Butt.”

Reagan knew that Lin Baicheng was worried that he or his people would embezzle the US$30 million in charity funds, so he asked people from the charity fund to handle it. However, he had already received great support, and of course it was impossible to refuse, let alone Spread the word so that no one can get off the stage.

Besides, even if there is no specific handling, Reagan can still benefit.

For example, if the charity of 30 million US dollars is to distribute free food to homeless people, then Reagan can definitely place an order with a food company that has interests in it. The food company that has received such a large order will give it to him no matter what. Donate a campaign fund to your campaign office.

It is even possible that Reagan's wife or son could get some special coupons, or win a jackpot worth hundreds of thousands of dollars by buying lottery tickets. These are all possible, depending on what kind of rewards Reagan wants to get.

In the United States, there are many types of lottery tickets. Each state has many different lotteries. Public relations companies have long used the lottery tickets to their advantage.

Lin Baicheng and Reagan did not chat for too long. After a while, someone came to tell Reagan that someone was coming. Lin Baicheng had not heard of this person. This was normal. There were so many rich people in the United States, and he could not have heard of them all.

When important people arrived, Reagan would definitely entertain them. Being able to chat with Lin Baicheng for so long showed that Reagan valued Lin Baicheng as a big benefactor.

Reagan left, and Lin Baicheng started shopping by himself.

There are a lot of Hollywood industry insiders here tonight, including stars, directors, producers, and executives from film and television companies. It’s impossible to get in without a certain level.

Lin Baicheng only knows the names of a few people behind the scenes such as directors, producers, etc., but not their faces.

Unlike celebrities, before his rebirth, Lin Baicheng had seen photos of some big stars in the 1980s on the Internet, so he knew what they looked like.

However, it is only 1980, and many of the big stars Lin Baicheng knows have not yet taken off, and are even still young. In fact, he didn't know any of today's big stars.

"Chairman!"

When Lin Baicheng was walking around, someone came to say hello to him. Of course, the only people who called him that were the managers of the companies under his name.

"It's Lansing."

Lin Baicheng turned around and found that it was Shirley Lansing.

"This time, all the presidents of the film and television companies in the industry received invitations, so I came too." Shirley Lansing explained.

Lin Baicheng nodded and said: "I invite you here to get your support, especially the Seven Big Hollywood."

"Yes, the ones who are really valued are the Hollywood Seven."

Shirley Lansing listened and said: "Mr. Reagan's campaign team seeks the support of Hollywood. In return, after Mr. Reagan becomes president, he will introduce policies or proposals that are beneficial to Hollywood. If Mr. Reagan really succeeds in the election this time, then In the next few years, film and television companies will inevitably usher in greater development."

Lin Baicheng reminded: "Then you have to be prepared to ride on this trend to develop the company and strive to turn the Seven Big Companies in Hollywood into the Big Eight in Hollywood again."

"I will do my best!"

Shirley Lansing made a solemn statement.

"Ellen, I didn't bother you, did I?"

While the two were chatting, someone came over, but it was Bush.

"of course not."

Lin Baicheng smiled and shook hands with the approaching Bush, and then said: "This is Shirley Lansing, the president of Morningstar Pictures, my company. Lansing, this is Mr. Bush, an important member of the Elephant Party and a future vice-president."

He briefly introduced the two of them respectively.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Bush."

Shirley Lansing took the initiative to say hello. Before working for Lin Baicheng, she had never been able to make friends with such a big shot.

"Me too, Ms. Lansing."

It would not hurt Bush to meet the president of a film company, not to mention the person introduced by Lin Baicheng. Even for Lin Baicheng's sake, Bush would greet him warmly.

"Chairman, Mr. Bush, let me leave for a moment while you chat."

Shirley Lansing was still very discerning. Knowing that Bush came here to chat with her boss, she took the initiative to leave space for the two of them.

"Go ahead."

Lin Baicheng was very satisfied with Shirley Lansing's behavior.

After Shirley Lansing left, Lin Baicheng said to Bush: "Bush, this time Reagan becomes president, then you will be the vice president. In the future, when Reagan is re-elected, you should be able to be re-elected, and then you will be able to participate in the presidential election." election."

Bush has been successfully elected as vice president within the Elephant Party, so as an assistant to Reagan, as long as Reagan successfully runs for president, he will be appointed as vice president by Reagan, instead of competing with the deputy of the Donkey Party for vice president.

The vice president in the United States must have a good relationship with the president. Only with the trust of the president can the vice president's power be exercised. Otherwise, if the president does not trust the vice president, the vice president will have no rights at all. No one will care.

Between the President and the Vice President, no one cares about the Vice President.

"At that time, I will still need more support from Alan."

After hearing this, Bush immediately said that although it is still uncertain whether Reagan can be successfully elected, whether he can become vice president, and whether he will have a chance to run for president in eight years, there are still some things that can be mentioned first, and there is no harm in it anyway. .

"When that time comes, I will definitely support you!"

Lin Baicheng expressed his attitude, but didn't say anything more. After all, there are still eight years left, and it makes no sense to say this now.

Bush did not say much about this topic and instead said: "Allen, I want to thank you for giving George Jr. the opportunity to become one of the main leaders of the charity fund."

The two had discussed this before. Lin Baicheng kept his promise and arranged a position for Bush, but Bush should still be grateful.

"You're welcome, why are we friends?"

Lin Baicheng smiled. He didn't do it entirely for Bush's sake. I believe that not only Bush himself, but even George W. Bush would never imagine that he would become the president in the future. It would be a great favor to give George W. Bush some help now and wait until the future.

"I still have some connections within the party and in some places. Allen, if you need help someday, you can come to me first. If I can't help, it's not too late to come to Mr. Reagan."

Bush smiled and nodded, and then made a vocal promise. This was what he wanted to give in return, and he knew what to do.

"I won't be polite!"

His efforts paid off, and when he needed help, Lin Baicheng would not be polite to Bush.

After the two chatted for a while, Bush said goodbye and left. Lin Baicheng continued to stroll around and chatted with other people from time to time.

In tonight's party, Lin Baicheng is not the protagonist. The protagonist is Reagan. He, the Hollywood Seven and other guests are all supporting actors.

Therefore, Lin Baicheng chatted with familiar people at parties, and sometimes met some people and made friends through the introduction of acquaintances.

Before the party ended, Lin Baicheng left first. He did not wait for Shirley Lansing and Carrie Fisher and left alone.
