Rebirth of the Wealthy American

In fact, the news that Li Mu decided to support the Democratic presidential candidate in the election had a much greater impact than Li Mu thought.

To this day, Li Mu not only represents the hundreds of thousands of employees of Junma Group, but also Li Mu’s tendencies determine the tendencies of millions of audiences of Times Media Company. These audiences are the decisive force in determining the outcome of the election. In the past few years, the Republican Party Candidates from the Democratic Party enjoy the convenience of controlling public opinion, while candidates from the Democratic Party are suppressed. Even if they get only a few reporting opportunities, the newspapers are mostly negative news. You can imagine how the Democrats are gnashing their teeth at Times Media Company.

Although they are gritting their teeth, the Democratic Party has nothing to do with Times Media Company. The Democratic Party has also tried every means to compete with the original "Times" for the right to speak. Unfortunately, even if it uses free gifts, the newspapers founded by the Democratic Party are still sold. However, according to Time Magazine, this leaves Democrats with no choice but to do nothing.

Now, due to the introduction of radio, Times Media Company's advantage in public opinion has once again expanded. Unlike newspapers and magazines with a narrow audience, newspapers and magazines have requirements for the cultural level of the audience, at least those who have not received education. No one will consciously sell newspapers. Broadcasting does not have this problem. As long as there is no problem with hearing, it will be affected by broadcasting. Unless Junma Laboratory is willing to open up technical resources, no media in the world will be able to do so in a short period of time. The reality of competing with Times Media is simply despairing.

After Li Mu defected, the Republican candidates will soon face the same dilemma as the previous Democratic candidates. All the pain experienced by the Democratic candidates will be realized in turn by the Republican candidates. This has almost announced the next presidential election. The results of the general election.

Li Mu did not stay in Washington to accept the flattery of Democratic politicians. After having an in-depth talk with Arthur, Li Mu returned to New York in a low-key manner. He did not even meet Edward Jeffrey and the others and hid directly in Governor's Island.

On Governors Island, Edward Jeffrey wanted to make an appointment to see Li Mu, but there were always a few people who did not need to make an appointment. The night Li Mu returned to Governors Island, Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan came to see Li Mu. Even if Li Mu was reluctant, he Give these two people face.

"You guys are really going too far. I just came back today. Is there anything I can't do until tomorrow?" Li Mu finally felt the pain. After several hours of continuous train ride, Li Mu was exhausted physically and mentally, that is, Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan. Only by working together can Li Mu be pulled out of bed, otherwise Li Mu would not care if the sky fell.

"You are the one who really went too far. I remember that we are friends. So can you please respect your friend's mood before making any decision? Even the tabloid reporters in Washington know that the great Mr. Ream has broken with the Republican candidate. Now, the two of us are stupid enough to attend a Republican fund-raising reception to raise funds for Republican candidates. Is this the way to be your friend?" Rockefeller was very angry. All along, Li Mu, Rockefeller, and J.P. Morgan They are all considered partners and the three giants behind the Republican Party. Now that Li Mu is going to cause trouble, Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan are kept in the dark. Rockefeller has another reason to be angry.

In comparison, J.P. Morgan is calmer, so J.P. Morgan is not in a hurry to attack, but is also waiting for Li Mu to explain. If Li Mu's reasons are not sufficient, then J.P. Morgan will not be polite. .

"Just donate, just donate. Although I have stated that I will not support the Republican Party in the next presidential election, I am still a Republican. I also donated to the Republican campaign in Washington. This is nothing." Li Mu didn't take it to heart at all. It was just a donation. Li Mu, Rockefeller, and J.P. Morgan each donate millions every year. Sometimes Li Mu and others also donate to the Democratic Party. This is normal in the United States. When it comes to political stance, the United States is not black and white. , Americans also understand the principle of not putting eggs in the same basket, especially people like Li Mu, who are all rabbits, and only three nests are too few.

"Then what do you mean? Hedging your bets? Please, if that's the case, can you do it more secretly, and don't make it so public knowledge." Of course, Rockefeller also knew the truth of the cunning rabbit's three holes, but on the surface he still had to maintain his loyalty. Character design, except for J.P. Morgan, Rockefeller and Li Mu have not good reputations, so this is very important.

"Reem, if you say 'next time', can I understand that you are targeting someone?" J.P. Morgan realized Li Mu's purpose, but there was a deviation in his understanding.

"No, no, no, I am not targeting James. In fact, no matter who runs for the next presidential election, I will not support it." Li Mu denied it. Just kidding, a James Bryan who has not won the election is not worthy of Li Mu. Well, so what if James Garfield won the election? If Li Mu hated James Bryan, then James Bryan would never get a chance to run.

Don’t ignore Li Mu’s influence in the Republican Party. One point that needs to be emphasized again is that Li Mu himself is not qualified to run for President of the United States, so Li Mu’s status in the Republican Party is very transcendent. No matter who it is, Li Mu will not be regarded as a competitor. He will only try his best to win the support of Li Mu, even if it is James Bryan. Regardless of whether James Bryan has ever suspected that Li Mu ordered the death of James Garfield, and no matter how much James Bryan himself hates Li Mu, but As long as James Bryan wants to win the election, then James Bryan must get Li Mu's support. This is why James Bryan appears at Li Mu's home by Luoying Lake.

Although the result is not good.

"John, Pieper, you have to know that after the establishment of Times Media Company, we increased the intensity of social surveys. About two years ago, we began to collect public opinion. More and more evidence shows that voters have a negative attitude towards the Republican Party. Dissatisfaction continues to accumulate. It should be said that we have not yet reached the point where quantitative change leads to qualitative change, but we have also stood on the edge of the cliff. I did not inform you of this news because our situation is different. Standard Oil's products are sold to Republicans. , and also sold to Democrats. **** money was lent to Republicans and Democrats. Only Time Media Company. When I founded Time Magazine, Time Magazine had a distinct Republican character. Position, now Times Media Company is becoming more and more important, what can I do? Do nothing, wait until the Democratic candidate wins the election, and watch them spin off Times Media Company? Your company does not have this crisis, But Times Media Company has it, so I have to do something." Li Mu faced Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan for another reason. It's not that the pension business is unimportant, but that compared to Li Mu, Times Media Company of equal importance.

There is no way, Li Mu, Rockefeller, and J.P. Morgan are all shareholders of Angus Job Company, so no matter what the profits of Angus Job Company are, the interests of Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan will not be affected. damage.

Times Media Company is different. Li Mu is the only boss of Times Media Company. If Times Media Company's interests are damaged, no one will help Li Mu share the burden. Therefore, Li Mu must be selfish and put profit first. No one has the right to blame Li Mu.

Speaking of spin-offs, despite the fact that the Horse Group and Standard Oil are now arrogant, that is because Washington has not yet had a reason to break up trust groups such as the Horse Group and Standard Oil, or the reasons are not sufficient. After all, there are not many trust groups in the United States. In terms of long history, the history of Standard Oil is slightly longer, only more than ten years, so the harm of the trust group has not yet appeared, or it has not attracted attention.

But just because no one takes it seriously, we cannot ignore the existence of these threats. Li Mu has been trying to break up the Junma Group, at least on the surface, in order to delay the process as much as possible.

There is another reason that cannot be ignored. The reason why Times Media is so dominant is that it relies on the control of the American media industry by the National Association of Journalists. The cultural field is different from the industrial field. The foundation of this control is not solid. If the Democratic Party If the president comes to power and imposes restrictions on the National Association of Journalists, then Times Media Company will definitely be suppressed. Therefore, Li Mu needs to give some hope to the Democratic Party and make the Democratic Party realize that they can also use the power of Times Media Company. In this way, Li Mu can ensure that Times Media Company’s long-term development Prosperity never declines.

After Li Mu said what he said, Rockefeller, who was still angry just now, immediately stopped. J.P. Morgan became even more calm and calm. No one is a fool. Li Mu has already said what he said. If Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan continue to If you can't understand, then you can only break up with Li Mu.

The consequences of the break were by no means what Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan wanted.

"Are you done talking? Please forgive my presumption." Will joined in time to break the somewhat embarrassing silence.

Will was also carrying George Dewey behind him, which surprised Li Mu. George Dewey should be in Hawaii now and should not be in New York.

"I'm on vacation." George Dewey took the initiative to explain that he was also an old friend of Li Mu and wanted to see Li Mu without making an appointment.

"I'm also on vacation. Thank you Reem, you have doubled my happiness." Will took the initiative to come over and give Li Mu a big hug.

Li Mu knew that this was because of the child in Gloria's belly.

George Dewey's vacation is understandable, but Will's vacation is a bit ridiculous.

The 1st Cavalry Division is based in New York, and Will never returns to Governors Island for more than three days. When Gloria came back, it only took a phone call to call Will back from the military camp.

What really puzzled Li Mu was why George Dewey appeared here.

"The war has begun." George Dewey looked at Li Mu with a bad expression.

Li Mu immediately came to his senses. Yes, it was already spring. If there were no accidents, the Far East Company should have declared war on the Qing Dynasty. This was indeed worthy of George Dewey coming to Li Mu.

"Since the war has begun, shouldn't you now ensure logistics for the Far East Company?" Li Mu reminded George Dewey to do his duty, not only to the United States, but also to the Far East Company, because George Dewey was also a member of the Far East Company. Shareholders cannot get their dividends in vain.

"Humph, I don't think the Far East Company needs logistics. God knows how many mercenaries the Far East Company has trained. Now they have landed, and many Qing rebels have responded. This scene makes people feel familiar." George Dewey was in a very unhappy mood.

Once upon a time, Washington was still discussing whether to declare war on Spain. The newly established Far East Company relied on a group of newly recruited mercenaries to defeat the Spaniards in Luzon. When George Dewey arrived with the newly established Pacific Fleet, While in the Far East, he only had time to participate in the final battle against Manila, which George Dewey always regretted.

Everything that happened in the Qing Dynasty seemed familiar to George Dewey. It was still the same recipe and the same taste. Although the Qing Dynasty had stronger war potential and greater strategic depth than Luzon, George Dewey did not think that the Qing Dynasty could Withstand the Far East Company's attack, as Li Mu's friend, George Dewey knew Li Mu very well. Although Li Mu didn't say it, George Dewey also knew that Li Mu had made a lot of preparations for today. Mercenaries were just a means. According to George Dewey From what I know about Li Mu, when Li Mu decided to attack the Qing Empire, the Qing Empire was already in doom.

"Haha, don't be depressed George, it is impossible for the Pacific Fleet to enter the battle. You know, Washington will not allow it, and other countries will not allow it." Li Mu knew that George Dewey was angry, not because of anything else, but because there was no room for intervention. : "Are you ready? Friends, the world's largest market has opened its arms to us. Don't blame me for not reminding you, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Li Mu has always claimed that the attack on the Qing Dynasty was only for the sake of the Qing Dynasty's market. Li Mu used this reason to gain the support of Washington. Otherwise, Li Mu would not be able to withstand the pressure of those European countries. At least this reason can be accepted by most people. The Qing Dynasty The empire is too big and the population is too large. No country, not even Britain, has the ability to occupy the Qing Empire. Therefore, European countries can accept the Far East Company's war against the Qing Dynasty, just like the European countries sat back and watched the Sino-Japanese War. The Qing-Japanese War broke out.

Of course, those European countries probably didn't realize that the Far East Company's war behavior against the Qing Empire was any different from Japan in another time and space. Li Mu would never say this.
