Chapter 622: The friendship between the richest man and the president's family (Part 2)

() "My relationship with His Excellency the President is actually far less close than what the media has exaggerated! Mr. George Bush was born in the mid-twenties, and I was born in the early 1960s! Everyone thinks that the two are nearly 40 years old. What should people with age gaps talk about together?

I said: Hey George, have you heard the album "Thriller" by Michael Jackson? It's amazing!

Then Mr. Bush replied lightly: Sorry, I prefer Frank Sinatra's jazz, or Johnny Cash's country music!

Can you feel the embarrassment I described? Of course, as a gentleman, Mr. President may not be so blunt and directly talk about the topic, and maybe he will echo my ridicule to Michael!

do you know? Although Michael is a superstar, he is actually very childlike! The last time I met him at a banquet in Los Angeles, he told me that in his 'Neverland', he had a collection of every arcade game we have ever released!

How should Mr. Bush continue to take my words? oh mygod! He has never played arcades and video games at all and has no idea what I'm talking about!

Therefore, he can only answer me very officially. The government is very concerned about the content of violence and **** in video games, and the adverse effects on the growth of young people! It is hoped that Dongfang Game Company, as a leading company in the industry, can actively assist content review agencies to do a good job of self-discipline in the industry, and effectively maintain the healthy and orderly development of the game industry!

Then, I nodded in agreement with Mr. Bush's suggestion, and took the opportunity to explain to him our company's usual views and propositions on this issue. The two sides had a very pleasant exchange!

Do you all feel that what I said in the second half of the paragraph just now is broadcast on TV stations as political and economic news without any sense of disobedience? Therefore, my relationship with Mr. Bush Sr is more like the communication between a large multinational company with diversified businesses and the US government! "

After Li Xuan finished speaking, he spread out his hands and made a helpless expression. Some listeners with low laughing points were immediately amused by him to laugh.

From the beginning of the exchange meeting, Li Xuan did not put on a lofty attitude, but used a very approachable demeanor and humorous conversation, which weakened the sense of distance that he brought to the audience as the richest man in the world!

The only way to get along with everyone is to make everyone feel that you, the richest man, are no different from ordinary people like them. That way they will trust you and agree with your point of view!

"The person who has the best relationship with me in the Bush family must be the current candidate for governor of Texas, Mr. George Walker Bush! Let me first tell you how I met George Jr. It's a very interesting story!

I mentioned earlier that one of my agents took me to a party nomination campaign dinner hosted by Mr. Bush Sr. The guests attending the banquet are all supporters of Mr. Bush Sr. As the hosts of the banquet, the Bush family naturally cannot let the guests feel left out!

At that time, it was the first time for me to participate in this kind of political banquet. I didn't understand the situation, and I was a foreigner, so I was a little bored and hid in the corner in a daze! At this time, little George saw me, so he took the initiative to come up and chat with me!

When he saw that I was Asian, he deliberately chose a topic that he thought I might be interested in - baseball! I have to say that George Jr. is really a talker, from the star pitcher of the Texas Rangers to the famous Asian players in the history of mlb!

Baseball is indeed very popular in Asia, including South Korea, Japan, the Philippines, and China's Taiwan-Taiwan Province. Unfortunately, I am from Hong Kong. It was a baseball desert. The British only played football, not baseball. His long speeches were undoubtedly playing the piano to cattle! "

Throughout the speech, Li Xuan used slightly exaggerated body language and expressions to express humor. For example, when he talked about this, he shrugged his shoulders deliberately, and made an expression that I was also broken.

In the eyes of the oriental implicit culture, these awkward and exaggerated movements are very grounded in the eyes of the old beauties! They liked the richest man in the world who understood American humor, which was best reflected in the constant bursts of laughter during the speech.

"The local Texas newspapers have criticized me before, they said that I invested in the acquisition of the Texas Rangers to flatter the Bush family! Because as a Hong Kong-Hong Kong native, I don't play baseball at all, even if I want to enter the sports industry, Should also go to London to buy League One football team!

One of the most conclusive proofs of these views is that George's net worth has skyrocketed by tens of millions of dollars in just a few years as a team manager!

I never deny that I don't know baseball very well! I actually only started getting interested in baseball after buying the Rangers!

But because the first impression of little George was so deep, I think he is a person who really loves baseball! So when he called and asked me if I was interested in buying an mlb team, I didn't turn him down the first time!

In my investment philosophy, when a person is full of love and passion for his work, it is often most likely to be successful! And George just gave me this feeling at the beginning. After he found that I seemed to be interested, he flew from the United States to Hong Kong for the first time!

I still clearly remember that in the living room of my house on the top of the mountain, he gushed to me about the huge plan of how to transform the entire team if he could take over the Rangers!

For example, how to create the perfect pitching team and striker in his mind through drafts, free agency signings, and transactions with other teams! How to strengthen interaction with fans to increase home attendance! How to use commercial marketing to increase the sales of peripheral products and corporate sponsorship, and improve the profitability of the pellets!

When I saw his confident look on his face, I had already approved more than half of it at the time! But buying an mlb team is not a trivial matter, and I can't easily make a decision based on my own feelings!

So I asked a professional market analysis team to collect the development data of the American sports market. Professionals gave me the conclusion that the development of mlb in the United States is thriving, which finally led to my shot!

As for the results of this investment, the majority of baseball fans in Texas must have the most judgment! Little George has completely fulfilled his personal promise to me, making the Rangers the original fish belly and a strong playoff team!

Just this year, the team's new stadium was officially put into use, and the season ticket sales at the beginning of this season have created a new high in the team's history! The most delightful thing for fans is that this season is halfway through, and the Rangers' winning rate ranks first in the American League. This year, they have a good chance to attack the championship again!

At the same time as the team's record is soaring, the valuation of the entire team is also soaring! According to the assessment made by the "Wall Street Journal" not long ago on all the teams in mlb, the Texas Rangers have overwhelmed the New York Yankees and become the team with the highest market value in the entire league!

Recently, a new investor has offered a sky-high price and asked me to buy the equity of the Rangers. I am still considering it for the time being! But no matter what, investing in Rangers is definitely a profitable business for me!

And the reason why the Rangers were able to revive again was not from the foundation that George laid a few years ago! I gave him an opportunity to realize his self-worth, and he gave me a great return on investment! I don't know what could go wrong in the middle!

Could it be that the political tentacles are so long that they can even control the team's record? The Rangers' achievements in recent years are because George's presidential father forced other teams in mlb to release water? "

When Li Xuan said this, there was a burst of applause at the scene. After all, the Texas Rangers have a huge fan base in the whole of Texas, and they are not fools, they can think for themselves!

I have to say that Bush Jr.'s move to acquire the Rangers together with Li Xuan at the beginning seems to be a stroke of genius, which has laid a strong popular foundation for Bush Jr. to run for governor now!

"As a friend of George Jr. and as the owner of the Rangers, I appeal to the fans of the Rangers to give Mr. Bush an opportunity to show his political talents, just like the opportunity I gave him!

Maybe your vote of trust will lead to a greater Texas state in four years' time, just as I did to a successful Rangers team! "

With sonorous and powerful words~www.readwn.com~, Li Xuan started canvassing for Bush Jr. with a clear stand!

Of course, all of this is actually in the plans of Li Xuan's think tank and the Bush campaign. Even the black youth who asked the question before was specially selected by the Bush team.

It is undeniable that Li Xuan has a close relationship with the Bush family, but forcibly cutting it would make it seem like it would be too much to hide! Therefore, after careful research and planning, the teams on both sides decided to keep Li Xuan and Bush Sr. at a distance. After all, the other party is the current president.

A businessman who has a close relationship with the president is too easy to give people bad associations! The relationship between Li Xuan and George W. Bush can be packaged as a story of mutual sympathy between an investor and an entrepreneur to beautify it!

Running the Rangers is equivalent to a start-up for George W. Bush, but joining politics and running for governor is undoubtedly a second start-up!

The new label "Passionate Entrepreneur" can not only cover up the weakness of George W. Bush's lack of political experience, but also clearly distance himself from the image of traditional politicians, giving voters a different freshness! After Li Xuan's Q&A session, the Bush team will conduct follow-up public opinion guidance and publicity as soon as possible.

Don't look at Li Xuan's sincere expression, but in fact every word of his has a purpose! After compiling the story with Bush Jr., Li Xuan has to round up the topic. After all, he also mentioned Bush Jr.'s younger brother Marvin Bush at the beginning!

In Li Xuan's eloquent narrative, Ma Wen became a sluggish young man who did not want to enjoy the shadow of his family, and took the initiative to leave Texas to go to Silicon Valley!
