Chapter 910
Following the death of the Democratic Party leader,
The noisy media in the United States seemed to have pressed the pause button.
They only reported that the party leader was assassinated and died, but they didn't report the specific reasons, and there was no analysis.
The Democratic Party, the Republican Party, and Umbrella Properties all reached a tacit understanding.
They didn't know which side the mastermind was on, but they all realized that if this continued, it would be you kill me, I kill you.
Everyone is just fighting for power, there's no need to fight to the death.
June 30,
The new leader of the Democratic Party—Harry, invited Xiao Fu to dinner.
Moreover,
He didn't invite Xiao Fu to Washington to eat, but flew directly to Los Angeles to show respect.
Evening,
At the entrance of the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.
A black Chevrolet, followed by two black Mercedes cars, filed in.
Xiao Fu hadn't gotten out of the car yet, and 8 bodyguards in black suits quickly dispersed, two in a group guarding the elevator entrance, fire escape, and parking lot entrance.
Style!
And vigilance towards the security situation!
"Mr. Li, Mr. Harry is waiting in the 'Magnolia Hall'."
The hotel manager bowed his waist to lead the way, his face respectful.
All the way in,
"Mr. Li!"
"Mr. Li~~~"
Los Angeles can be considered Umbrella Properties' territory, and Xiao Fu knew quite a lot of people.
All the way past, many political and business celebrities greeted him one after another.
Arrived on the third floor,
When the private room door was pushed open, Harry was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and turned around immediately upon hearing the movement.
He was the newly appointed Democratic Party leader, and at this time he was jumping with joy in his heart.
The predecessor died well!
If he didn't die, how could I take over?
So, I can't make the same mistake~~~~
He walked over, shook hands with Xiao Fu enthusiastically, and piled up a smile: "Mr. Li, finally met you!"
Xiao Fu smiled: "Mr. Harry is polite, you invited me, I naturally have to come."
The two sat down, the waiter poured tea and snacks, and was waved away by Harry.
Only the two of them were left in the private room.
"Mr. Harry, about the former party leader, after hearing the news, I was very heartbroken, he was the core of the Democratic Party, didn't expect he was actually assassinated..."
Xiao Fu looked heartbroken.
Harry sighed: "Who says it isn't? We in the Democratic Party are also very heartbroken... hope he is doing well in heaven..."
The two mourned for a while.
(Former party leader: "............" One murderer, one successor, both wishing I was dead, and here they are pretending!)
After mourning,
Harry began to apologize: "By the way, Mr. Li, before the Republican media attacked Umbrella, we didn't speak out in time, I have to apologize to you. At that time, when we had a meeting, I strongly suggested that the party leader should help, but the party leader... forget it, he has already sacrificed for the Democratic Party, I shouldn't say much about him."
"Past things, don't mention them." Xiao Fu put down the teacup.
"The key is, we have always been allies." Harry leaned forward, his tone sincere. "Look, the Democratic Party has always cared about Chinese and minorities, seeking benefits for them; while that group of people in the Republican Party excludes immigrants, they are not on the same path as us at all."
"Therefore, our Democratic Party and Umbrella Properties are natural allies with common interests."
This was the goal of his trip this time.
He was afraid that Umbrella Properties would lean towards the Republican Party after this incident, which would be funny.
You must know that there are Chinese on the Republican side too.
Xiao Fu was very serious: "Please rest assured, Mr. Harry, we have always been friends, this point hasn't changed."
On one hand, it was Brother Zu's request.
On the other hand, the Democratic Party is indeed more suitable for Umbrella Properties.
Who let them be Chinese?
That group of old white people in the Republican Party only values the interests of old white people.
Harry, after hearing this, was very happy: "Hahaha~~~ Thank you very much for Mr. Li's recognition all along!"
Chatting for another 20 minutes...
Harry brought up another matter, which was also another purpose of this trip.
"Mr. Li, Happiness Properties is now in a state of panic, those people (Democratic capital) took over and couldn't manage it well at all, and half of the territory was snatched by the Republican Family Properties. At this time, maybe only Mr. Li Jiayuan can come forward to preside over the overall situation to stabilize the situation."
Speaking of this, Harry looked bitter.
You guys, one by one, are all mud that can't support the wall.
Isn't it just a property company?
Why can't you manage this well?
Harry looked at Xiao Fu: "I don't know if it's convenient for Mr. Li to help be a lobbyist..."
As a result,
Xiao Fu's tone was flat: "Jimmy's matter, he has to decide for himself, I can't make the decision for him... after all, he was forced to leave Happiness Properties in the first place."
Harry sipped his wine to cover up his embarrassment: "This, some people at that time, indeed reached out messily... we will definitely teach them a lesson, definitely."
Xiao Fu changed the subject at this time and took the initiative to say: "Speaking of which, the 2008 presidential election is not far away, does the Democratic Party have a suitable candidate?"
Harry was stunned and said: "Currently we are also considering and screening suitable candidates. Could it be that you Umbrella have a recommendation?"
The "implicit preparation" for the US general election often starts earlier than public actions, and work such as capital liaison and relationship paving is often started 2-3 years in advance. That is to say, the 2008 general election has to start in 2005.
And at this time,
The Democratic Party has already seen Bush's reputation plummet, and the Republican Party is also full of shadows.
So the Democratic Party's chance in 2008 is very big.
And at this time,
The Democratic Party has already started looking for suitable candidates internally.
Xiao Fu looked up and looked straight at Harry: "I do have a candidate, Obama, who is of African descent."
"Obama?" Harry's eyes froze, "You mean that senator from Illinois?"
