American Entertainment 1982 Chapter 242

Chapter 242 If you really like Martin

"We're not going to tell them what the **** earth is like, Jeff! We're going to get these old guys to support you, donate their pensions, pensions, and donate them to your campaign, you know? There's so much money you need to spend, and now we can't even cover the basic costs of setting up an election PAC!" Tommy interrupted Jeff.

Jeff was puzzled: "Aside from campaign advertisements and leaflets, what else do you need to spend money on? Last year Zach ran for the election, and he placed a 30-second advertisement and distributed campaign leaflets on the TV station. It took less than five dollars." A hundred dollars."

"Do you think advertising is about buying a 30-second ad space on a TV station, letting your family sit in the living room and entertain yourself, boasting that you are on TV? No, unless you can't even win the party primary election and directly announce Quit the election, otherwise as long as you are still in the election, your TV campaign advertisements and local talk shows will not stop. The cost is not calculated by the second or the time slot, but by the month. At least one month can make the voters watching TV feel the same. You have some impressions on your face, at least two months before they are willing to listen to what you want to say, at least three months before they can consider whether you are the one they need." Tommy pointed with his fingers on Jeff's chest:

"Then, all the big billboards in this area, all the major newspapers and magazines will have your picture on it, and at the same time, you need a professional stylist to help you design and make it easier for them to produce Intimacy hairstyles, more suitable clothes, you need an etiquette assistant to remind you what to do when you gather with voters, so as not to make them feel impolite, or be caught by your opponents and slander you as a Arrogant bastard, you need a business assistant to remind you what to do today, even your four children plus your wife to accompany you to various occasions, social etiquette, etc., etc., these expenses need donations Come support."

Jeff, who was clearly taller than Tommy for a long time, was forced by Tommy to retreat step by step: "So, these bills have to be paid by veterans for me? Even my wife and children?"

"Those veterans can't afford that much money, but at least the amount should allow you to set up political action and campaign action committees. Only with your political action committee can we go for more donations." Tommy from Jeff's He took out the cigarette case from his coat pocket, shook out one, bit it in his mouth and said.

Jeff asked puzzledly, "Why was this committee established?"

"Because the United States "Federal Election Law" stipulates that individuals and organizations can donate no more than one thousand dollars to each candidate, but if you have your political action committee, the upper limit will become five thousand dollars. The law makes it easier for those big benefactors to find less heads to send money for them. For example, if he wants to donate 100,000 yuan, he only needs to donate to your committee in the name of 20 reliable relatives, instead of risking money. For a higher risk of leaking secrets, find a hundred employees who may leak secrets at any time to donate to you." Tommy lit the cigarette and returned the cigarette case and lighter to Jeff.

"Wait a minute, why are veterans willing to donate money to me?" Jeff put away his cigarettes and thought of another question.

Tommy puffed out a puff of smoke: "Because of this special election, the main contestants played the race card. Cuban immigrants in District 18 have accounted for 45% of the total population. Do you know what this concept is? It means that if Cubans support a certain One candidate, that candidate can almost be said to win, but veterans will not like this kind of person. In the 1960s and 1970s, Cubans often hijacked American airliners. Every rescue operation was carried out by soldiers. Do you think Will veterans who have seen Cuban terrorists kill their comrades have a good opinion of Cuban immigrants? Will they donate to a politician who supports those hijackers and forgets the military exploits? Of course not, and the current top three chances of being elected are all It's women, the army believes in the supremacy of the strong, and women, in the army, have no **** experience of being strong, only the experience of being raped."

"But you are different. Your father was a soldier, and you were a soldier. As long as you package your image well and let those rude old **** who are willing to treat you as their own give some money to support you, it shouldn't be a problem."

Jeff looked at Tommy with a troubled face, and said in a low voice: "...I...I don't want to cheat everyone's money, and I can't...I mean, I never helped those veterans, and I didn't even think of doing it before. Go tell them the truth about the world."

"You can tell them what you can do for them after you are successfully elected, or you can ask what they need you to do. For example, some of their veterans who live in nursing homes will say to you, Jeff, I hope the elderly There are more young and beautiful female nurses in the hospital, and there are also alcoholic veterans who say to you, Jeff, I hope the bar will give us a discounted price for those who have shed blood for the country. All you have to do is tell them to take money to support You, when you get elected, send all the beautiful Cuban girls to nursing homes for them to pick, and you're going to be in Congress trying to convince the country to open veterans bars for veterans, and that's not cheating, Jamie, it's a deal, like you're giving customers It's like fixing the pipes, they pay you and you fix the pipes for them, that's fair.” Tommy smiled and changed his tone to Jeff in a softer tone:

"You are a kind man, Jeff. After you are elected, you can help countless people discover the truth. Before you get in front of countless people, the rules of the game are like this. You have to accept donations from people to go further. If you feel Sorry, just tell yourself that after you are elected, you can work hard to give back to those who have helped you."

Jeff looked at the two friends on the sofa in the living room in the distance, Zach and Alan, apparently just heard the conversation between him and Tommy, he asked the two friends: "What do you think I should do?"

"I think what Tommy said makes sense. I didn't donate last year, so...failed, and I didn't even remember a name." Zach, who signed up for the election last year, said.

Allen thought about it for a while, and cleverly gave an idea: "If you feel guilty, you can repair the pipes for free after the election is over. Repairing pipes is very expensive, right?"

"That's right! For everyone who donates, I can repair their pipes for free." Hearing what his friend said, Jeff's eyes lit up and he said happily.

Tommy sighed, put his arms around Jeff's shoulders, and lowered his voice: "That's a question to be considered after being elected. You can let it go for now. What do you think of Martin?"

"The kids love hearing his jokes, I mean, he's pretty good." Jeff turned to look at the dining room, where Martin was telling jokes at the table, making the four children laugh out loud.

Tommy also looked at Martin, looking at the warm scene and said softly: "Very well, if you really like him, you must remember what I said next, so that Martin can continue to be your campaign manager , but if you misremember some key questions, I guess he will blame you for being queued up at the police station to have his **** fucked, how to choose, choose yourself."
