Unparalleled True Technology
Chapter 402: A Bribe of 500 Million Dollars
We need a president, America needs a president, and when people call that president, we want it to be... President Roosevelt.
Major General Nick's reply has not yet come, but people from the Roosevelt family have.
After some courtesies and verbal confrontation, the current patriarch of the Roosevelt family expressed their request to Wen Ming.
And this request corresponds to Wen Ming's request.
Wen Ming was silent. He really couldn't understand why the Roosevelt family believed that he was willing to support a President Roosevelt.
It's not that Wen Ming can't do it. In the capitalist country of the United States, money is everything. Money can be used to seek benefits for ordinary people in the United States, to gain the support of ordinary people, and it can also be used to buy political connections so that more politicians, or more directly, those congressmen, will support you.
In another world where Wen Ming lived, a businessman became the president of the United States. If one only looked at his net worth, the businessman who used Twitter to run the country was far worse than Wen Ming.
Even if Wen Ming supports a businessman at will, he can still have a worth higher than that businessman's president. For example, Teresa Roy's worth has already doubled.
However, why did the president supported by Wen Ming listen to the words of the Roosevelt family?
Even if that person's surname is Roosevelt.
I don't think I have the ability to do this. Wen Ming couldn't understand where the confidence of the Roosevelt family came from, so he could only continue talking in another direction, and said, If money can be used to buy votes, I I believe that there are not many people in this world who can pay a higher price than me, but you also know that this is against the law.
Wen Ming's words made the current patriarch of the Roosevelt family, 67-year-old James Roosevelt Jr., laugh.
James Roosevelt Jr.’s father is James Roosevelt, a former member of the United States Congress and a brigadier general. At the age of 26, James Roosevelt has also worked as an assistant to the president many times, because his father is Franklin Roosevelt. He has been in office for the longest time in the history of the United States the president.
After the death of James Roosevelt, the name of James Roosevelt Jr. became James Roosevelt, but many people still call him James Roosevelt Jr., because this name proves that those people know his background and what he represents.
Four successful campaigns, three complete presidential terms, and half a presidential term, Franklin Roosevelt, left the Roosevelt family with unknown power, so far, only James Roosevelt Jr. knows.
So he could laugh at Wen Ming's question, and then said: If it's just you, it's really difficult to support a president. Of course, if you are willing to run for president yourself, I think the difficulty will be reduced.
The fact that the difficulty is lower does not mean that there is no difficulty. The political connections owned by the businessman president of another world are not accumulated in a year or two.
Wen Ming is not short of money, what he lacks is time.
You must know that the top political circles in the United States are not village party secretaries in some remote villages. They will not accept money on the spot when you send it, or even eagerly reach out to take the money from your pocket.
Are people who can get to that level really short of money?
Therefore, both James Roosevelt Jr. and Wen Ming are very clear that if Wen Ming wants to have real connections in American political circles, there is only one thing he lacks, and that is time.
James Roosevelt Jr. continued: But if you are willing to provide us with financial support and direct solidarity with our agents, I think the position of the next president is almost certain.
It was the end of 2010, and the next U.S. presidential election was in 2012.
If Wen Ming does not choose to cooperate with the Roosevelt family, then he wants to support his political contacts to run for the US president,
That will have a chance at least until 2020, and it may not be successful.
Even if it succeeds, there will be two presidential terms between these two times.
What can two presidential terms do?
Create a family that has been passed down for more than a hundred years!
Wen Ming asked calmly: I want to know, who is the agent you are going to support?
James Roosevelt Jr. replied: My second son, Grady Roosevelt, 39, is now a member of Congress.
Wen Ming frowned. The age of 39 is about to enter middle age. An ordinary person's lifetime achievements can almost be fixed, but facing a position like the president, he is still a bit too young.
James Roosevelt Jr. noticed Wen Ming's expression, he knew what Wen Ming was thinking, and said, Do you know who is the youngest president in American history?
Before Wen Ming could answer, James Roosevelt Jr. continued: Theodore Roosevelt, he is my grandfather Franklin Roosevelt's cousin, and when he became the President of the United States, he was only 42 years old. At this age, he created an unprecedented , so far no one can surpass the record.
Grady will be 41 years old when the next presidential election runs. We hope that this record will be set by our Roosevelt family and maintained by our Roosevelt family.
Wen Ming didn't know much about the presidents in American history. Except for a few relatively well-known ones, he couldn't even name them all.
Hearing the reasons of James Roosevelt Jr., he could only lament the huge ambition of this family.
Even if, this family is already at sunset.
There was a long silence in the room where only the two of them lived. Wen Ming was thinking about what he could gain and what he would lose in this transaction.
Demands such as manufacturing satellites, fighter jets, and rocket launch sites must be met, and even Wen Ming's umbrella company may realize what a real arms dealer should do.
For example, selling arms to the world.
But this does not mean that Wen Ming will be able to control the next President of the United States, no one wants to be controlled. And the reason for helping to run for the presidency is not actually a reason. The United States already has lobbying for this kind of fair and honest way of bribery.
The Roosevelt family, already at sunset, will take advantage of this opportunity to rise again and continue the glory of their family for hundreds of years.
As for Wen Ming's loss, he added an enemy, that is, the Roosevelt family.
Because Wen Ming's purpose is to control as much power as possible, the United States is naturally one of the powers he hopes to control.
Not to dominate the world, but to be able to integrate forces when necessary to deal with enemies that a single country on earth cannot face, that is, his karma.
For example, aliens!
What do I need to do?
After thinking for a while, Wen Ming decided to cooperate with the Roosevelt family, because Grady Roosevelt's term of office is only two terms at most, and after two terms, Wen Ming felt that he should have enough political power.
By the time……
James Roosevelt Jr. laughed happily and said: First of all, it is naturally financial help. We hope to get the first phase of 500 million US dollars in campaign expenses. Second, you have to build a good relationship with Grady. The relationship must be put on the bright side and let more people know. Finally, I hope you can join the Democratic Party.
To show our sincerity, you will be able to get the permission you want tomorrow morning, and you can reply to me tomorrow for my three requests.
Hearing James Roosevelt Jr.'s request, Wen Ming finally understood what it meant to be at sunset. Such a huge family, with two presidents, couldn't come up with 500 million US dollars in cash today, nearly a hundred years later. Of course, it doesn't mean that it really can't be taken out, but if it is taken out, the family will be hurt.
But what is 500 million US dollars to Wen Ming?
Wen Ming asked puzzledly, Why are you looking for me?
James Roosevelt Jr. replied very sincerely: Because you need us, and we need you.
It is very important to need this reason. Bill Gates has money, but he does not have the ambition of Wenming. Mark Zuckerberg has money, but they are all assets on the books rather than cash.
