Chapter 634

~14 min read 2,637 words

With the gradual growth of the Umbrella Corporation, the office location was also moved to a 22-story office building, the tallest in the middle of Tang Renjie.

Deng Shimei drove a car and brought her assistant to the downstairs.

Got out of the car.

Looked up at this building.

Took a deep breath and walked up with her assistant.

"I hope the lobbying will be successful this time..."

As a political creature, lobbying is a basic skill.

After investigation, she found that the Asian voters she was targeting as her base were mostly inextricably linked to the Umbrella Corporation, and the Umbrella Corporation happened to have a very high reputation.

Soon, she and her assistant arrived on the 22nd floor, passed through the secretary Li Qiao, and met Li Fu.

"Mr. Li~ long time no see!"

Ms. Deng very cleverly used Cantonese directly and shook hands.

"Welcome, Ms. Deng... Is Ms. Deng from Hong Kong?"

"Yes, I lived in Hong Kong until I was 17, and then I immigrated to the United States with my parents..."

In order to shorten the distance between the two sides, Ms. Deng chatted about things before she was 17, such as the Ferris wheel, Victoria Harbour, and Tsim Sha Tsui...

Li Fu had a professional smile.

It's useless for you to tell me this; I was still in the mainland at that time and couldn't relate to the life of a capitalist young lady like you at all.

"Sit... I like drinking tea; Ms. Deng should like it too, right?"

Li Fu took Ms. Deng to the sofa area.

Li Qiao made Kung Fu tea and poured it skillfully.

Ms. Deng pondered Li Fu's meaning; is he trying to take the initiative?

Very strong!

She liked drinking coffee.

Ms. Deng smiled: "I also like drinking tea."

Next, Li Fu started chatting about all kinds of things in Hong Kong again, but for Ms. Deng, who had been away for more than 20 years, Hong Kong had changed too much, and many things didn't resonate, but for the sake of votes, she could only listen with a forced smile.

Just like that, half an hour passed, and Ms. Deng finally couldn't help it and took the initiative to speak.

"Mr. Li, I came here this time because I want to get the support of the Umbrella Corporation."

"On November 2nd, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors election is about to be held. As the only Chinese candidate, I hope to be able to contribute a little bit to the Chinese and Asians."

Li Fu drank tea slowly, learning from Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, quite in Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's steady style.

"I wonder what Ms. Deng's platform is?"

The assessment began.

Ms. Deng straightened her expression and began to talk about her ideas:

"First of all, I want to establish a 'Immigrant Rights Committee' in San Francisco."

"Especially for Asians, on the one hand, it is to maintain the rights and interests of immigrants and provide free or low-cost legal advice to immigrants; on the other hand, to carry out civic education to help them integrate into San Francisco; then provide them with community support (renting, buying houses, etc.), and then hold cultural activities..."

As soon as Li Fu heard this, his eyes lit up.

This...

overlaps with the functions of the Umbrella Corporation!

What does this mean?

It means it should belong to my Umbrella Corporation.

Li Fu smiled: "This is no problem, but I hope that when the committee is established, there will be people from my Umbrella Corporation in it."

Ms. Deng was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Of course, no problem!"

Li Fu drank tea, leaned on the sofa, and lay down comfortably: "Continue~~"

Ms. Deng straightened her back, as if reporting on work:

"Second, after becoming a councilor, I will propose a legislative proposal, the 'Equal Access to Services Act', to provide equal rights for ethnic minorities, especially us Chinese..."

"Equal rights? Good!"

Li Fu clapped his hands.

Then Ms. Deng talked about "requiring government documents to be translated into six languages, including Chinese," "increasing commercial loans for ethnic minorities," and promoting the "Cultural Equity Grant Program" to support art projects for ethnic minorities.

Li Fu supported the first and second ones.

As for the third one?

Could this thing be for corruption?

These people's hearts are really dirty.

Sure enough, they are naturally evil Americans!

Ms. Deng: "These are my current platforms."

Li Fu pondered for a while and asked: "You just mentioned equal rights; besides seeking my support, have you sought support from other organizations?"

Ms. Deng nodded: "Yes."

Li Fu: "Can you tell me which ones? I should at least know who my allies are, right?"

Ms. Deng mentioned a few, none of which were Jewish people.

Li Fu nodded: "Okay, Ms. Deng, this matter is of great importance, and I need to discuss it with the senior management, so I can't give you an answer right away; I need to think about it carefully."

When Ms. Deng heard this, she was disappointed: "Okay, please, Mr. Li, you must help. I am Chinese, and everything I do is for the rights of the Chinese."

Li Fu nodded.

Then he saw her out.

Ms. Deng knew she had to leave.

She stood up, walked to the door, paused, gritted her teeth... suddenly, she turned around.

"Mr. Li, I wonder if you are free tonight? I would like to invite you to my house for a meal."

Eye hints~~

Li Fu: "............"

Your European and American makeup is ugly, and you're almost 40 years old; what are you hinting at~~~

Li Fu isn't into mature women.

"Sorry, I'm having dinner with my wife tonight, I'm not free."

"Then tomorrow?"

"Not free."

"The day after tomorrow?"

"Not free."

Ms. Deng: "............"

Am I that ugly?

She left a bit disappointed. Not to mention, this Boss Li is quite handsome; it's a pity he has a wife, otherwise she could have taken the opportunity to seduce him.

She probably didn't understand that Easterners don't like that kind of heavy European and American makeup; it looks too ugly.

Li Fu is still a genuine Easterner.

(ps: I originally posted a makeup photo, but because it was too ugly, it made the readers and editors cry, so I deleted it.)

In the afternoon,

Li Fu went to the Eastern Consulate in San Francisco.

This is a three-story white building, relatively low-key, with only a red flag erected on the tower, eye-catching and bright.

In December 1978, the East and the United States jointly issued a "Joint Communiqué on the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations," officially establishing diplomatic relations.

Then the following year, in December 1979, the Eastern Consulate General in San Francisco opened.

Li Fu walked into the consulate and met the Consul General.

"Mr. Li!"

"Consul~~~"

Li Fu and the Consul were also old friends; they even exchanged gifts during the National Day.

After chatting for a while, Li Fu said he wanted to use the consulate's phone.

"Please go ahead, Mr. Li."

In the private phone room, Li Fu checked it and started calling Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu.

10 minutes later, he finally got through.

"Hey~~ Li Fu."

"Brother Zu."

Li Fu told him what Ms. Deng said today.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Since she's one of our own, we naturally have to support her."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Besides her, who else can we support? Tell me about a few candidates with higher popularity, let me see..."

Li Fu: "One is a radical, doing something about homosexuality, calling for equal rights for homosexuals, and also lowering rents; the target is minority groups and bottom-tier citizens..."

"One is an old white man, a conservative, protecting the interests of property owners, pushing up housing prices; the target is those old white people and the middle class and above..."

"And..."

"Who do you choose, Brother Zu?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Choose that progressive, the homosexual one."

Li Fu: "Huh?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "You have to think about what we are doing? Naturally, the more chaotic, the better. These people who engage in homosexuality will definitely engage in multi-gender and all kinds of monsters and demons in the future... The more monsters and demons there are, the more convenient it will be for us..."

Li Fu: "............"

I envy your talent!

I'm going to fight you, this talent freak!

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Needless to say, this progressive candidate definitely has a relationship with those Jewish people."

Li Fu was puzzled: "Brother Zu, didn't you tell me to mess with the Jewish people? Why do you want to cooperate with them?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "But I have a new idea now."

Li Fu: "What new idea?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "We want to enter America, and the main contradiction is still those old white Americans... and these Jewish people can naturally also be our partners..."

Li Fu: "These Jewish people are not good people."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "You're stupid, we aren't good people either."

Li Fu: "............"

You're unreasonable and bold, right.

Li Fu: "Okay, I understand. Then we will support these two candidates."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Pay attention, we don't support homosexuality... how to support it? Take a roundabout way, just support his platform of suppressing rents."

Li Fu: "Okay, I understand!"

Brother Zu has already given the program, and Li Fu already understands what to do next.

Equal rights, chaos, cooperate with Jewish people, and then mess with the Jewish people...

"Wait..."

Just as he was about to hang up,

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "There is one more thing; when the election is over, let her establish a 'Stop Hate Asian Committee'..."

Why did Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu think of this?

This existed in later generations.

It is specifically used to count incidents and frequency, and finally used to provide effective evidence for Asian equal rights.

And now in the 90s, such attacks and violence are more frequent than in 2019.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu told Li Fu his general idea.

"This can be used as a condition for supporting that Ms. Deng."

"Okay."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu sighed: "Your situation in the United States is much better than in Indonesia; in Indonesia, you can't interfere in political events at all, it's a headache~~"

Li Fu: "It will definitely work."

After Li Fu finished the call, he walked out of the consulate.

Looking at the sun in the sky, the sun was bright and his mood was comfortable.

With a program in his heart, there is strength under his feet.

Brother Zu is awesome!

He got into the car, returned to Tang Renjie, and as soon as he returned to the company, he called Ms. Deng.

"Free tonight? Let me treat you to dinner..."

The joyful voice of Ms. Deng came from the other end of the phone: "Very honored!"

That night,

Ms. Deng was heavily made up and arrived at the agreed place.

Although she was 40 years old, but... okay, it's really not Li Fu's hobby.

The agreed place was on the top floor of the restaurant, on the balcony.

She brought her assistant and was about to walk into the balcony when she was blocked by the waiter:

"Sorry, Miss, this place has been booked by a gentleman... are you Ms. Deng?"

"That's right, it's me."

The waiter then let her through.

Ms. Deng brought her assistant out to the balcony and saw Li Fu and Qi Qi sitting at a table, drinking fruit juice.

"Hello Ms. Deng, this is my wife and the lawyer of the Umbrella Corporation, Lawyer Liang."

Although Qi Qi had short hair, she was plain-faced, fresh and beautiful, completely different from Ms. Deng's style.

After both sides were introduced.

Li Fu got straight to the point: "Ms. Deng, after internal discussion by our Umbrella Corporation, we have decided to support you in running for the Board of Supervisors this year."

Although Ms. Deng was mentally prepared, she was still very pleasantly surprised.

"Thank you, Mr. Li!"

If there were no drinks, she would have toasted him.

Li Fu: "It's nothing, everyone is just for the living environment of the Chinese."

"However, our support also has conditions."

"Please speak."

"Besides the platforms Ms. Deng proposed, I hope Ms. Deng will add one more."

"What?"

"'Stop Hate Asian Committee'... the general meaning is..." Li Fu introduced it once.

As soon as Ms. Deng heard this, she hurriedly said: "This proposal is very meaningful for improving the lives of our Asians! I am duty-bound!"

Li Fu: "Also, I want to meet another election candidate — Tang Mu Ammiano; we think his platform is very good and hope to support his cause. I wonder if you can help bridge the gap..."

Although Ms. Deng was a little surprised in her heart, she smiled on the surface: "I happen to know him too; why don't I organize a party tomorrow and invite you and Mr. Tang Mu Ammiano to come over?"

Li Fu smiled: "Okay."

What does he hate most since coming to the United States?

Parties.

All kinds of parties, endless.

So annoying!

But this is the national condition of the United States, and he has to integrate.

The next night,

Li Fu took Qi Qi to Ms. Deng's party and met Tang Mu Ammiano.

Tang Mu Ammiano was very pleasantly surprised: "Oh~~~ Mr. Li, I was just planning to visit you these two days; it's really lucky to see you here today."

Li Fu not only has the Umbrella Corporation but also the UKTV television station, making him a very high-quality partner; Tang Mu Ammiano had thought about winning Li Fu over.

Li Fu: "I also really want to meet Mr. Tang Mu; we strongly support your platform of suppressing rents and benefiting ordinary citizens."

A round of mutual flattery.

They talked happily.

Then they talked about conditions, and Li Fu said he hoped to improve the political status of Asians so they wouldn't be discriminated against.

Tang Mu Ammiano patted his chest: "Equal rights have always been something I want to work hard for; happy cooperation!"

Li Fu: "Happy cooperation!"

Three days later,

"ADL" California Chapter.

An internal meeting of California Jewish people was held.

"For the November San Francisco Board of Supervisors (legislative council) election, we have nominated Tang Mu Ammiano, and the current poll results are very good..."

"It is worth mentioning that Tang Mu Ammiano mentioned to us that he has won over the forces of the Chinese side."

One of the Jewish people introduced the information about the Umbrella Corporation.

"This Umbrella Corporation currently has a wide approval rating in San Francisco and the San Francisco Bay Area..."

"There are nearly 20,000 employees, and the number of voters they can influence is at least over 100,000..."

"And they also have a UKTV television station..."

"Currently, the boss of this Umbrella Corporation, Li Fu, is seeking equal rights for Asians and hopes to meet with us and cooperate..."

Everyone heard this.

"Equal rights?"

This triggered their Jewish keyword.

"I think we can get in touch..."

"I agree."

"Agree."

Currently, the power of the Jewish people has not yet reached the strength of later generations; besides having already controlled the US labor unions, they are still working hard in other aspects: they have not yet ruled the media, they are still infiltrating Wall Street, and the equal rights movement has just begun to develop...

They need to contact more partners.

"Then let's get in touch!"

"If we can cooperate, then let's cooperate!"
