Chapter 1257: Political game

Soon after Zhen Fan returned to the hotel, there was a call from the front desk of the hotel, saying that it was New York City Mayor Bill Debra coming over and asking whether Zhen Fan would allow Mr. Bill Debra to come upstairs to meet him. "Zhen Fan was stunned. What does it mean that the mayor of New York City came to see him? After thinking about it, I said yes, and let the hotel arrange a small meeting room. Can't talk about things in the room.
Zhen Fan thought for a while, but he found out the phone and called Bit: "Hey, New York City Zhang wants to see me, and now, I have agreed. Would you like to participate?"
"Mayor of New York? Oh...what do you have to do with him?" Bit was stunned, and then nodded and said, "See you, see, it's nothing, isn't it the mayor? Who hasn't seen him before? Mayor? Are you nervous? Haven't seen such a big person, haha... it doesn't matter, it should be a good thing!" Bit and Zhen Fan joked.
"Okay, I'm going to see the mayor. It seems... today is really the day to meet big shots. Goodbye, Bit!" Zhen Fan said, hung up the phone, changed a suit, and thought about it. , Changed his suit, so late, what important things can a mayor come to see him? So I wore a casual T-shirt and went to the small meeting room arranged by the hotel.
When I opened the door, several people were already sitting inside. They arrived first, and Zhen Fan pushed the door in, and saw those people standing up, and the leading one reached out to Zhen Fan and smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Zhen, I have heard of the name for a long time, I finally saw it today. It's a real person, Bill Debra, you can call me Bill." The two shook hands as they said.
"Hello. Mr. Mayor, it's so late. Thank you so much for letting you come to see me in person. It also surprised me very much. What is the reason? It makes me a little scared!" Zhen Fan laughed While speaking, there was no sense of panic at all, and in the mutual humility, they were seated. Both of them were sitting side by side, diagonally opposite each other, the others were sitting on either side.
"Well, I heard that Mr. Zhen suffered some unusual things in New York, so... I came over to find out the situation. We also regret this. New York is a super city in the world, but relatively speaking, The management of such a big city really hurts people's brains, so... I am here to express my apologies to Mr. Zhen. We really feel very sorry for the occurrence of such a thing!" This is his second Said regret this time.
Zhen Fan shrugged his shoulders: "There are people like this in every city. You don't have to feel sorry, it's not your fault. Okay... Besides this matter, let's talk about something else..." Zhen Fan is still a bit unclear about the purpose of the Mayor of New York. But he decided not to dwell on that matter.
It turned out that the two talked for about half an hour, and then Bill Debra got up and said goodbye, as if it was really for that matter. Zhen Fan is a little baffling. Then went back and told Christine about this matter. She is an American, and she must know a little bit of American style.
Unexpectedly, Christine was also at a loss. I guessed a lot of reasons, such as whether it was a family member or I was sick, and I wanted to ask Zhen Fan to treat it. Or really express Zhen Fan's care and so on. But none of these seem to be. What kind of care do you express if you are not relatives or not? Even as a cure. Can't you go to Los Angeles in person? What is more important than your own illness? Obviously these have been ruled out.
But the next day something surprised Zhen Fan happened again, and there were officials from the state government who asked Zhen Fan to go to the seat of the state government. Because the governor wants to invite Zhen Fan to lunch. This made Zhen Fan a little bit inexplicable. Of course he could refuse, but considering the future shooting tasks, he thought it was better to agree. In order to avoid any accidents during the shooting. You must know that no matter which country officials use their power to do sabotage, they don't need to be taught by others.
The officials who came were two well-mannered middle-aged gentlemen, but they were also stubborn. They stood directly at the door of Zhen Fan's room, like two guards. Zhen Fan had no choice but to laugh: "Then... please wait a minute, I'll change my clothes." Then he walked into the room.
While changing clothes, he called Bit, and Bit suggested Zhen Fan to go. The mayor and governor wanted to see Zhen Fan. There was a reason, so Zhen Fan had to decide to take a step. After changing his suits, Zhen Fan followed the two people out and got in the extended luxury car they had specially driven.
The state government of New York is not in the center of New York, but in Abney, about two hours away from New York. And in Abney, Zhen Fan met the most majestic state government in America. It is a huge palace, which looks very luxurious. Just not far from the luxurious state government, there is a street where sewage and dirt coexist. It was a very sharp contrast, but when she walked into the palace, Zhen Fan also found that some places were still unfinished.
But there are still many tourists in the state government. There are also tour guides specifically explaining for them. Simply, the two officials took Zhen Fan into the office from another road, which is the governor's office. The governor's office is very spacious and the decoration is very stylish. When you open the door, the people inside immediately stand up.
One of the middle-length men, a little fat, wearing a gray suit and a bald-headed man stood up and smiled at Zhen Fan: "Our Lord is here, welcome, welcome!" He greeted with Zhen Fan. Where to shake hands. There were two people behind him. He introduced them one by one. Zhen Fan had no intention of remembering the names of these people, but nodded to the governor.
"Andre? Cook!" The Governor of New York looked at Zhen Fan's expression and knew that he didn't know how to call himself, so he proactively said his name. Indeed, who is the governor of New York, Guan Zhenfan, and what? So he didn't signal to others, but said to the governor, "It's an honor, but also very confused!"
The governor looked at Zhen Fan and smiled: "We can sit down and say, I'll tell you the reason. In fact, sometimes, the truth is very simple." When he nodded to the other two people, the two people tacitly said. Walking towards the outside, and when leaving, closed the door. He took out a cigar and handed it to Zhen Fan, Zhen Fan waved his hand, he picked it up and smelled it under his nose, and finally resisted not lighting it.
"Well, since the truth is so simple, then... please tell me what I really want!" Zhen Fan said to Governor Andre Cook, "You know, I don't like politics, so we'd better It’s to speak frankly and honestly. This is good for everyone. I don’t like being kept in the dark or being used by others, you know?"
Since there are only two people in the room, he and the governor, Zhen Fan doesn't need to give him face anymore, just tell the truth directly. He looked at Andre Cooke, and then said: "I also have political friends, including Mr. President, but... our relationship has always been very good, because when they talk to me, they have One characteristic is that, to be honest, even if it is an exchange of interests, no matter how naked it is, I feel very happy."
Hearing Zhen Fan said this, Andre Cook nodded and smiled: "I like your straightforwardness, indeed... Politics is a trick of dirty trading, but when you say it, you have to portray them. It’s as pure as the Virgin Mary, but we all know...every politician knows that politics is actually dirty. Every politician has finished, and praised that he has the purest and purest. Noble virgin."
Andre Cook said as he stood up, walked to the side of the wine cabinet, and when he came over twice the wine, he handed Zhen Fan a glass, and he also sat opposite Zhen Fan with a glass of wine and smiled: " Well, now I can finally state my purpose at the very beginning, without having to spend a lot of thought, and many hints are implicitly presented."
Zhen Fan looked at him, and he also wanted to know what they-Mayor Bill Debra and Governor Andre Cook want from him. See what makes them so interested in the transaction.
"Before you encountered a very unpleasant thing, that is, those little gangsters wanted to assault your fiancée, Ms. Stuart, and your friends, Ms. Yi Fei and Ms. Fei Bingbing. Now this incident makes us fall into We are in big trouble. My opponent intends to use this thing to make us stink, so I have to ask you to help~EbookFREE.me~ Zhen Fan was taken aback, couldn't help but look at Andre? Cook said. : "Let me help? How can I help you? This matter is handled by the police station, and a judge will decide the case. What does this have to do with you? What does it have to do with me? "Obviously, Zhen Fan didn't think about the other issues carefully, just because he didn't understand. A major mayor and a major governor, this matter is not a matter at all, and it has nothing to do with them.
"In two months, the governor election will officially begin. Bill and I are both members of the Democratic Party, you know... The Democratic Party has always been in the parliament without an advantage... Someone wants to use this to fight My reputation has caused my re-election plan to end. If this is the case, then... the position of our democratic parties in the two houses is in jeopardy, and now we can only barely maintain our advantage." See Zhen Fan with an inexplicable look , Andre Cooke simply spoke bluntly, and from this he also labeled Zhen Fan as ignorant of politics.
Despite this, he did not dare to fool Zhen Fan easily, so he always talked to Zhen Fan with a very sincere transaction mentality: "So... we will be awarded by you, honorary citizen awards, this is very easy Get it. The point is...you have to speak to us, praise our handling of things, and support me to continue my re-election campaign." (To be continued...)
