The presidential election in the United States is not a system of universal suffrage, but a special electoral system.

The so-called electoral system is that every state in the United States has a certain number of electoral votes.

In the US presidential election, the voting results of the voters in each state determine the attribution of the corresponding electoral votes in this state.The presidential candidate decides the election victory or defeat based on the number of electoral votes ultimately obtained, rather than the specific number of voters nationwide.

This'winner takes all' election system means that in addition to the entrenched Democrats and Republicans, it is difficult for the United States to have candidates from other parties who can win elections.

Facts have also proven that no more than two hundred years after the founding of the United States, except for the original George Washington, no president came from a third party other than the Democratic Republic.

Although the election of Ross Perot has aroused strong media and public attention, everyone with a clear eye knows that it is very unlikely that Ross Perot will break the deep-rooted political monopoly of the two parties in the United States.

However, as Ross Perot attracted more and more attention, the two parties in the United States dared not look down on the independent candidate.

The recent attacks on Ross Perot in some conservative media have obviously been deliberately done for a long time.

In Simon’s memory, it was not just the attacks of media public opinion. In order to prevent Perot’s candidacy, the Bush administration even resorted to some unscrupulous tactics.

Ross Perot also withdrew from the election under pressure, but after several twists and turns, the powerful billionaire finally participated in the general election that year, and received an unprecedented support rate of up to 19% for independent candidates.

The allocation of a large number of conservative votes that should have belonged to the Bush camp also led to the failure of George Bush’s re-election to a large extent.

Simon had already bet on Clinton last year, and has been quietly investing money and resources to build momentum for this candidate for the past six months.

However, in Simon's view, the inexperienced Clinton wanted to win this presidential election. In the final analysis, he could only find another way.

To put it bluntly, it is to ensure that Ross Perot's election is to share Bush's votes.

"A friend of mine has been doing media PR work for the Perot family. I talked to him and took the opportunity to participate in a reception hosted by Ross Perot a few days ago. Overall, this is a very People who are strong and conceited tend to be stubborn and do not like to listen to others' suggestions."

In the reception room of Greenwich Manor, Joseph Schlapp introduced the situation of Ross Perot: "Perro is very angry about the recent media attacks and thinks he has been treated unfairly, which is to a great extent. He strengthened his determination to continue to run."

Janet brought in the coffee in person.

Joseph paused the narrative for a while, and after Janet poured coffee for everyone and sat down next to Simon, he continued: "However, I think it is difficult for Perot's determination to last too long, because the Republican Party wants to prevent Perot’s candidacy will definitely not exert pressure only on public opinion.

For example, recently, Perot’s computer service company is planning to assist several major stock exchanges to establish a new online trading system. This is a big business, and it needs to obtain the SEC (United States Securities and Exchange Commission), the Department of Justice and other departments Approval.

If Perot insists on running, the Republican Party may set up obstacles for Perot’s company in these areas.Perot himself should be very clear. He has a very low probability of winning the election. In order to damage the company’s interests, it is definitely not worth the loss, so in the end, he may take the initiative to give up the election."

Where there is a national government, there is never lack of using public power to suppress opponents.

The US is no exception.

The previous Watergate incident,

Of course, everyone knows the final result.

But beyond that, other similar things are almost endless.

The two acquisitions of the Westeros system last year, because of the Democratic tendency of Simon's team, also encountered some Republican Party difficulties warning.

Ross Perot's family is very big, and it is in turn'fear of bare feet' wearing shoes. If you insist on running, you will indeed be scrupulous.

Speaking of this, Ross Perot has been on the forefront of the Forbes rich list several times in the 1980s. With the rise of a new technology wave in the 1990s, the Perot family, which is mainly engaged in computer services, has lost its voice. Years of persistent participation in the US presidential election led to the continued suppression of family companies.

After several years of cooperation, Joseph Schlapp has gained Simon's trust, so he knows most of Simon's layout.

Listening to what he said, Simon roughly understood that this is to remind Simon that if he wants Ross Perot to insist on participating in this year's presidential election, he will help the other to resolve some'worries about the future'.

Simon and Ross Perot are not familiar, but things like the online trading system that Joseph just said, using the connections established by the Westeros system, can indeed provide some help.

Moreover, after Clinton stated his interests to the Democratic Party, the Democratic camp should also contribute to the promotion of Perot to continue to run.

Although the current White House cabinet is controlled by the Republican Party, there is no shortage of Democrats. The SEC is part of the government department of Congress. After the mid-term elections of the previous year, both houses of Congress were under the control of the Democratic Party.

Having discussed the details of pushing Ross Perot to continue his candidacy, Joseph Schlapp forwarded some documents sent by the Clinton team, mainly to hope that Simon can provide public opinion assistance for the Clinton campaign on the Igritt portal platform. .

Speaking of this, in this presidential election, Simon has to do more than just push the boat, and will not invest at any cost.

Again, the position of the US president is too small and too rewarding, so too many interests are involved.

For Simon now, if he gets too deep, he may lose out.

The main expansion goal of the Westeros system in the political arena, the members of both houses of parliament who still have great power but do not attract much attention.

Therefore, it only took more than twenty minutes on this matter. Joseph Schrap then talked about the lobbying progress of several telecommunications and media industry bills concerned by Westeros.

Simon's most recent concern is about the lifting of the telecom industry operators' prohibition of getting involved in the field of telecommunications equipment manufacturing.

After the first GSM digital phone was released last year, Nokia's expansion in the European market was very rapid. On the US side, North America's largest telecommunications operator AT-T and Verizon Telecom, controlled by Westeros, began to lay GSM. Mobile communication system.

If Nokia cannot enter the North American market as soon as possible, even if it has the advantage of a channel operator like Verizon, and it lags step by step, it will only become increasingly difficult to develop the North American market.

Fortunately, it is not just the Westeros system. AT-T and other telecom industry giants are pushing for the opening of telecommunications industry regulations.

Although it will take a year or two to relax the integration of long-distance and short-distance calls and limited television services, the ban on telecommunications operators not allowed to engage in the manufacture of telecommunications equipment will probably be released by the end of this year.

By then, Nokia will be able to enter the North American market.

In the media field, after Sony acquired Colombia, as more Japanese and European companies watched Hollywood’s big studios, in order to avoid the continued occupation of Hollywood by foreign capital, the lifting of the ban on the merger of content providers and channel operators in the media industry was almost It is already an inevitable trend.

At the latest next year, the relevant ban will be lifted.

At that time, the traditional three major TV networks and Hollywood studios will be able to merge with each other. Because of the 20th Century Fox Film Industry, the FOX TV network, which is restricted in many ways, can also expand its own scale. , And has become the fourth largest TV network in the United States in conjunction with the three old public TV networks.

After the promulgation of the Sherman Antitrust Act in 1890, the United States has been restricting the expansion of large corporate giants for a century. During this process, Standard Oil Company was split, the Paramount Act was born, and AT-T was Divided into seven, many other industries are also subject to many restrictions of antitrust laws.

Just responded to the phrase'the long time must meet'.

At least for the next three decades in Simon’s memory, the United States has maintained a laissez-faire attitude toward the expansion of corporate giants.

This country will therefore enter the next golden age of capital.

Continued expansion has enabled the American corporate giant to maintain its global competitiveness in the context of globalization, but at the same time, this expansion will undoubtedly suppress innovation and hinder the development of the industry, so it is difficult to say whether it is good or bad.

However, for the Westeros system, the next thirty years will surely be the best era.

Various matters were discussed for a whole morning, and Joseph Schlapp was kept for lunch, and the other party was sent away. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

It happened to be a sunny day, and the early spring sunshine brought a little warmth.

A large lounge chair was placed on a terrace of the manor house, and the sun was shining warmly, and Janet was like a cat in the spring, snuggling beside Simon.

Indeed,'spring' is here.

After giving birth to the little guy, after a few months of rest, I was finally able to love heartily last night, so I won't get up late this morning.When Joseph Schrap arrived at nine o'clock, the two had just had breakfast.

Simon also squinted comfortably, feeling the warm afternoon sun and the soft and fragrant woman in her arms. She didn't know how long it was until she was blocked by the partition wall on the side of the terrace before whispering: "Baby, how are you going to celebrate your birthday?"

The woman's birthday is March 13, next Friday.

Simon remembered it very clearly.

Janet wrapped around Simon's body moved, and the small paw still scratched a few times on the man, dissatisfied: "But birthday, I am not birthday."

Simon smiled: "Just be your 18th birthday, OK?"

"Oh..."

"Okay, okay," patted the woman who bit her shoulder. After thinking about it, Simon said: "Will we go to Australia next week and take a look at the children."

"Well, just a few days, are you sure you want to go to see children in the past?"

"..."

"Ha ha."

Speaking of which, through video communication, the couple can actually see the little guy who is far away in Australia every day.

When Veronica was taken to Australia, Simon was originally worried that some villains might be dissatisfied.

However, this situation did not happen.

Surrounded by a family of people, the little guy is more precious than he was on Los Angeles.

Although Janet often talks about a little annoying, as a mother, she has no unqualified places. She has always liked children.It's just that women don't like the feeling of being free and free to be bound by a little guy.

As for Simon, the coma after the first encounter with Veronica caused him to have a strange fusion with the original soul of this body.

Simon's original consciousness still firmly dominated this body, but, inevitably, many memories and emotions of the original owner of this body unconsciously affected him.

In the final analysis, a body merged with the souls of more than a dozen people, it could not have been a simple sibling.

Now Simon Westero is just Simon Westero

Janet chuckled. When Simon didn’t speak, he stood up and looked up: "Otherwise, let’s go to Manhattan to watch the fashion show at night. The two'waist essence' and leg essence' you raised in Europe last time were in Oh."

The four major fashion weeks of this era, New York Fashion Week is still taken after London, Paris and Milan.

This year’s New York Fashion Week officially opened yesterday for a period of ten days.

Simon last year handed out two models Yasmin Gary and Naga Allman in Milan, and his reputation has continued to rise in the past six months. Naturally, he will not miss this New York Fashion Week catwalk.

Reaching around the woman's waist, Simon pretended to worry: "You don't want to go to beat people? They are just ordinary goblins, but they can't withstand the destruction of your big devil."

Janet took a bite of her little white teeth: "Little bastard, if I want to hit me, I should hit you too."

Simon raised his head slightly and leaned down to make a posture of being a mermaid: "Fight, fight, I don't resist."

Janet slapped Simon lightly and said again softly: "Little bastard."

Then I posted it again, listening to the strong heartbeat of the man.

Boom Boom Boom.

In fact, I know more things. Those two models, waist, legs, legs, fine, he smashed a lot of money for ordinary people on the two women, but did not go to bed with them, let alone nothing. Special feeling.

Actually understand, he probably likes the feeling of manipulating everything.

God says, there must be light!

It seems to be a long, long time ago, and it seems just yesterday.

When she was firmly grasped her wrist that time, she knew that this man was his own god.

"Simon."

Suddenly he couldn't help but called out a little.

There was also an answer in my ear.

"Ok."

Then there was a feeling of satisfaction.

Probably, the man's big hand patted her waist gently.

Time to walk and watch until the sky is completely dark, and finally willing to leave the terrace.

After some discussion, we drove to Manhattan together and picked a good restaurant. After dinner, we went to Bryant Park in Midtown to watch the catwalk.

It has been arranged in advance, just in time to catch up with CK's catwalk.

Even if the fashion trend of celebrity superstars participating in the catwalk has been formed, the Simons and his wife appeared on the CK show, and it still felt like two big dinosaurs appeared on the chicken farm.

Photographers on the show consumed more film on the couple than on any model on the catwalk.

The time of the brand's catwalk will not be too long. The two just happened to step on the point again. Less than twenty minutes, privately, it may be a few months to prepare for the catwalk and it will be declared over.

Calvin Klein, the founder of CK, was behind the scenes and came over to invite Simon to the next brand party.

It seems very attentive.

Simon actually understands the reason. The couple's appearance on CK's show tonight will definitely bring a wave of high exposure to this brand.

And, at a deeper level: The current CK is actually on the verge of bankruptcy.

After entering the show, Janet quietly mentioned it in Simon's ear.

Sofia has noticed the high-fashion company in the United States since the end of last year.

CK's jeans, underwear and other businesses just happen to not form too much competition with Gucci.

Therefore, winning this company that has more than 20 years of historical brand is also enough to be deeply rooted in the people's hearts. It should be a good complement to Melisandre's fashion business.

Of course, running to see the show tonight is entirely about the spouses of the couple.

Unlike Gucci, although CK has been established for more than 20 years, the overall scale is still small, and the turnover in recent years has just exceeded 100 million US dollars.Even if you choose to buy all, the price will not exceed 100 million US dollars.

The $100 million business can't get Simon to pay too much attention.

Of course, he did not refuse Calvin Klein's party invitation.

Probably because of financial constraints, although several newly-rising well-known models such as Naja Allman, Yasmine Gary and Kate Moss were invited, the subsequent party was a bit shabby, and was located in Bryant Park In the ballroom of a nearby ordinary hotel.

If it were not for the Simons and the couple, many of the models and celebrities who participated in the catwalk would probably not attend.

Perhaps because of the news, shortly after the couple showed up at the CK party scene, there were people coming one after another. The party scene with only 50 or 60 people was already crowded after half an hour.

Including Cindy Crawford, Linda Ivango Linda and other top models in the fashion circle, all of them came over.

Naka Allman, Jasmine Gary, including Kate Moss, who has just emerged, even though their careers are rising rapidly, they still can’t afford the title of “supermodel”.From this point, we can see the gold content of the Supermodel in the 1990s.

Then, when Janet was found beside Simon, many ambitious girls on the scene were obviously a little more disappointed.

The rapid rise of Najia Allman and Yasmin Gary in the past six months has made many fashion girls who want to do their best to feel the magic of Simon Westeros. This attraction Even more tempting than Westero’s tens of billions of dollars.

Who doesn’t want to be the next lucky winner to be cheated on?
