Back To 1995

   Chapter 386 Chain Reaction

   TV stations are different from other industries. In America, they act as mouthpieces. A TV station with 10,000 subscribers and a million or 10 million subscribers are completely different media.

TV stations such as CNN, NBC, Fox, etc. are now qualified to turn black and white, but for the ICNC TV station, which is about to start broadcasting, the most important thing is to increase the number of user subscriptions. It's raining!

   Hearing Song Yang's words, Andy Lake understood what Song Yang meant, but he was still a little regretful. If the broadcast could be started earlier, ICNC TV would still be able to gain a lot of popularity.

"How about the preparations for the tobacco news?" Song Yang lowered his voice and asked Andy Lake. This was the big move that ICNC had planned on the day of the broadcast. It was going to be a big move to attract the attention of the entire America. force.

   Hearing Song Yang mentioning this, Andy Lake was instantly refreshed. He and ICNC TV station have been preparing for this for a long time.

   "We have found Geoffrey Wegener, and we have signed an agreement with him to expose the nicotine in the tobacco industry to America and the world on the nightly news on ICNC's launch day!"

Andy Lake raised his eyebrows and said, ICNC has been preparing for this for a long time, and even for the sake of safety, they even invited the Jeffrey Wegener family to the "safe house" of Blackwater Company in New York. , Since this time, after the interview is over, he will immediately send Jeffrey Wegener overseas to change their family name to avoid the limelight, and then bring them back to America in a few years.

"Song, I'm afraid, in a few days, someone from the Tobacco Association and Tobacco Company will come to you and ask to refuse to let Geoffrey Wegener appear in front of the camera!" Andy Lake looked at Song Yang said.

To broadcast the matter of nicotine in the tobacco industry, there must be huge pressure, and Song Yang, the big moneymaker, must be no exception. In order to prevent Jeffrey Wegener from exposing the harm of nicotine to the human body, or even other news of the impact Appearing on TV, those companies from the Tobacco Association will definitely find Song Yang here.

   "I said that I will let ICNC TV station report this matter, and it will not change!"

  Song Yang said to Andy Lake, hearing this, Andy Lake was relieved, as long as Song Yang, the big sponsor of ICNC TV station, did not object, then no one could stop this matter from being revealed.

The time period is very important. ICNC TV started broadcasting just after the American election. Even if the chief commander is re-elected, the entire power department in America will have to undergo an adjustment, and the outside world must focus on personnel changes. In doing things, the resistance will not be too great, and in this news vacuum period, it can attract everyone's attention.

  It was night time, although most of them had a premonition that this election would not be shocking and unpopular, but everyone's eyes were still focused on the TV.

The news media of the major TV stations are almost all making various predictions and estimates. The votes of one state after another have been counted. The commander-in-chief of America is not elected by the people, but according to the federal states. As long as he has an advantage in a state, he will get all the votes of the state, a total of 538 electoral votes, and as long as he has more than 270 votes, he will basically become the new commander-in-chief.

In the middle, there will definitely be room for action, and it is definitely not as good as it is said to the outside world. Of course, with America's current status in the world, this set of gameplay is also touted as the most "perfect". How to play, who made the world now, only Amelica's fist is hard, and those who are not convinced are beaten to the ground. When Mao Xiong was there, there was another one who could scold Amelica for a few words. Mao Xiong is no more. Amelica does whatever she wants...

   This is the first time that Song Yang has paid attention to America's election. With Andy Lake as a media person, Song Yang has a deeper understanding of the truth.

  In the early hours of the morning, the vote warehouses of the states were continuously opened, and the first counted neutral states such as Colorado, Missouri, Ohio, and North Carolina.

Andy Lake shook his head when he saw that the electoral votes of Missouri and Ohio were placed on the chief commander, "The chief commander has won, and the one who wins Missouri and Ohio has the world, and the chief commander has won this. Two states, it's a pity that others haven't caused much difficulty to the Great Commander!"

After the    swing states were won, the commander-in-chief was even more unstoppable. The traditional donkey party sites, starting from California and ending in New York, showed an unstoppable trend, and in the end it was true.

"Congratulations to the commander for his re-election. In the 1996 federal election, the commander defeated Dole, the challenger from the Elephant Party, with 49.24% of the votes and 379 electoral votes and won re-election. The next four years will still belong to the era of the commander. , he will not become the first re-elected leader of the Donkey Party in America after the leader of World War II!"

When the news host of NBC TV announced that this year's "boring" and lack of dramatic general election had come to an end, everyone in the villa was not at all strange, but some lamented the influence of the current commander. As a challenger, he didn't even give a serious threat to the commander, and he was not a heavyweight player at all.

Whitman obviously sighed, she is a serious supporter of the Elephant Party, and has no good feelings for the Donkey Party. In addition, after joining the Double Click, she was targeted several times, and she has no good feelings for the Donkey Party. They want to overthrow the Donkey Party, but obviously it is impossible for these four years.

  Because of Song Yang, the Bruno family, Wesley, Irene, Iger, and others all began to turn their heads to support the Elephant Party. After all, the **** decides the head, and no matter how close you are to the Donkey Party, it is impossible to support the other party.

  The screen of the TV station turned to the chief commander's campaign office. At this moment, it was full of cheers. The chief commander and his wife were surrounded by a group of people and were complimented. The chief commander greeted the supporters in front of the screen gracefully.

Dole's performance was also very graceful. When the results of the vote count were released, Dole immediately followed the usual practice and delivered a concession speech, that is, his defeat speech, "Tomorrow will be the first time in my life that I have nothing to do. Do!"

Dole wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but the people standing on the side of the campaign office, as well as other bigwigs like Tom DeLay, who was at the party, couldn't laugh. When you go to the street, you get shot. Elephant Party supporters and funders spend billions of dollars, not just to see them happy on this occasion.

   "I have said a lot about this election. The commander is not my opponent, let alone my enemy. I wish him all the best, and I will support him as promised!"

After he finished speaking, he took a deep look at the seat behind him, and Dole waved again. With his age, participating in the general election was his last fight, and after losing the election, it was basically time to retire. .

Then Dole's chief of staff announced to a group of media outside that Dole, who had been on Capitol Hill for many years, officially retired, which made those who still wanted to accuse Dole and the media to compliment their conscience. From what Dole has done to America in the past few decades, the re-elected commander also expressed his regret for Dole's departure for the first time. It is no exaggeration to say that even if he is gone one day, it is estimated that he will not receive it today. touted a lot...

Later, TV stations also began to report more news about this election. A group of election experts declared that "this is the most boring election of this century." The two challengers did not pose the slightest threat to the commander-in-chief. To be nervous, this is a crushing victory between the Chief Commander and the Donkey Party, representing the power of the Chief Commander, which has also reached its peak this year!

   "Only 49% of the electorate who went to the polls this time is the lowest level in this century since 1924."

The news host said that apparently most people in America think that the leader won, and all of them have no interest in voting. "In addition, the leader, the supporters of female voters, reached 53%, while Dole At only 37%, this is the largest disparity among female voters in America's history!"

The host looked at the various data analysis in his hands and couldn't help but complained, the commander is really a friend of women in America. Obviously, a female voter in America chose between the commander and a bad old man without hesitation. former.

Not only was Dole a fiasco, but Perot, who advertised at his own expense as a third-party candidate, lost even more this time. He ran for election four years ago, and he got 19% of the votes that time. , and this time only less than 8%, that is, you can't buy tickets with money...

   "Overseas ballots, as well as the emerging Hotmail mailbox ballots, are becoming more and more new voting methods. Maybe America needs to pay more attention to these emerging young ballots..."

The news also mentioned the mailbox voting that just started trial operation this year. This year, it directly exceeded 300,000 votes. It was cast by Hotmail mailboxes. These are young votes. It has begun to slowly affect the general election in America.

"The Elephant Party will maintain its dominant position in the Senate, and the Elephant Party may also win in the House of Representatives, which means that the Donkey Party may lose its 40-year rule on Capitol Hill. It may be a new challenge!"

Despite the fiasco in the general election, the Elephant Party finally did not sit still and gained an advantage on Capitol Hill. Otherwise, the next four years would really be dominated by the commander-in-chief. The Elephant Party can also regroup and give an account to the donors who have spent huge donations.

   When the commander-in-chief began to speak on the TV, countless supporters of the Donkey Party were cheering.

At the Netscape headquarters, there was a burst of applause at this moment. Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Jim Clark stood up, the tall Texas man, waving his fists vigorously, "Guys, it's time to act, it's time to let the **** robber deserved punishment!"
