Chapter 919 Personal Press Conference

Washington, America.

The time came on Friday, April 26.

In the briefing room of the White House, Bill Clinton has reduced the number of personal press conferences that he has personally hosted since he fell into the vortex of the Paula Jones case. This is the first time in the past two months.

Because the timing is good.

Today, there will certainly be no reporters to ask if Kenneth Starr has discovered something else, or whether the single veto power just obtained some time ago is unconstitutional.

The number of times the president personally hosts a personal press conference is determined by the individual according to the schedule, and there is no mandatory requirement.

However, Clinton is a person who is very good at marketing personal public images, and it is clear that there are many benefits in maintaining direct contact with the media.Two years before taking office, Clinton basically maintained a very stable frequency of hosting personal press conferences once a month, but it had only been reduced to about once every two months in the last year.

In the click sound of the shutter, the first reporter from the “Washington Post” was asked the same question as Clinton envisioned: “Mr. President, how do you evaluate Simon Westero in This week's visit to China?"

Clinton showed a long-lasting affinity smile and definitely said: "This is a very great business visit. The official exchange between Simon and China will bring the economic cooperation between China and the United States to a new stage, and this will also It is a win-win situation, and the federal stock market growth in the last week is the most direct proof."

Very routine answer.

The reporters on the stage thought this way, and the second reporter got up, and the question was no longer so friendly: "Mr. President, do you think it is reasonable for China to entertain Simon Westero with the courtesy of the head of state?"

The reporter spoke a lot, and many people paid close attention to the possible micro-expression on Clinton's face without blinking.

Unfortunately, everyone is destined to be disappointed, and the expression of Mr. President is still impeccable: "China does receive Simon with a very high standard, and Simon's achievements, I think this should be. And, everyone is actually very clear, and official state visits In contrast, the difference is still very obvious. I hope you will stop deliberately misleading the public."

"Mr. President, do you currently have a plan to visit China, and if so, will your visiting team exceed the size of Simon Westero?"

"No, my first term has always been focused on restoring the federal domestic economy. If possible, I hope I will visit China during my second term," Clinton said with a smile, saying: "As for The size of the team visiting China, taking into account the interests of taxpayers, I will try my best to save money."

"Mr. President, it is rumored that Simon Westero's visit to China cost 12 million US dollars. Do you think this is an extravagant waste that should be condemned?"

"I don't think there are so many, and I don't understand where you got the data, so it's inconvenient to comment."

In fact, everyone knows that this is a small challenge.

Simon's visit is so large, it will definitely be very expensive.It's just that because it's an official invitation from Chinese officials, who will pay for these expenses, but it is very said.Someone is rich, but he is not an injustice.Moreover, if an invitation to Simon Westeros visit can bring such a boost to the national economy, not to mention 12 million US dollars, it is worth ten times.

Another reporter got up and was still polite: "Mr. President, will Westeros visit prompt Washington to speed up its WTO accession negotiations with China?"

"No," Clinton shook his head decisively. "At present, our negotiations with China on accession to the World Trade Organization are still in the preliminary stage. The Federation will be very cautious about this negotiation in order to absolutely ensure the interests of the American people."

"So, Mr. President, China's accession to the WTO is a foregone conclusion. The question is only specific contract terms?"

"China, a country with a population of 1.2 billion and a huge market,

"Mr. President, how do you view the impact of the "Westeros effect" on Asian stock markets?"

Clinton changed his face with a ridiculous smile, but his words did not go away: "I noticed this thing a few years ago, which is very interesting. However, frankly, I think this is an overreaction in the market. East Asia and South Asia Countries have always been long-term partners of the Federation, and their economic development has been very good."

The topics surrounding Simon's trip to China continued for more than half an hour, and the questions the reporters should ask were answered.Clinton decisively declared the press conference ended when he noticed that someone was beginning to lead in a less pleasing direction.

Leaving the White House briefing room, a white-haired female intern with dark hair and a full body came over and handed a piece of information to Clinton, saying: "Mr. President, Mr. Vice President is already waiting for you in the oval office."

Clinton nodded, taking advantage of the girl's chance to get close to her, and grabbed a hand behind the other person, whispering: "Find me later for dinner."

After the intern looked at him unconsciously, the other two White House staff members came out from the briefing room together, but they all felt as if they didn’t see the expression of Mr. President just now, so they felt relieved and whispered, followed Clinton to the oval office Go.

The intern named Monica Lewinsky handed over Clinton's latest support rating survey.

Clinton walked down with his head versatile, looking through it, and quickly sorted out the answers he had just made at the press conference.

The results are satisfactory.

In particular, the support figures on the report.

Kenneth Starr’s investigation of the Paula Jones case not only did not crack down on his approval rating, but even played a counter-productive role, and has now reached a high of 615. Such support rating will be re-elected as long as there are no major surprises. Almost nailed down.

Re-election is also the first issue Bill Clinton has considered since the beginning of this year.

Others must stand by.

On the other hand, the report in hand is actually an online survey from Eaglet.

Unlike the error in restrictive sampling of entities surveying companies, the accuracy of the report is very high.Clinton also knew that the Westeros system regularly provided these inhumane documents to itself, which was actually a reminder.

At the personal press conference just now, Clinton always behaved very well.

However, it is impossible if there is no envy or even jealousy about the youth's fanfare to visit China.However, Clinton's strong psychological quality can resolve these negative emotions.

Because it makes no sense to understand.

If it cannot be resolved, or even evolved into actual action, it will only cause him trouble.

From the leftovers of this country's bottom white garbage to the Federal President, one of the most powerful people in the world, Clinton has been far less relaxed than the outside world imagined. The clear goal-oriented character also made him understand what he needs and what he doesn't need. , So these senseless emotions will not accumulate.

Clinton knew that the only thing he had to do was to continue his power to the greatest extent.

The first is the second term.

Then, like the Bush family, the Clinton family was built into an everlasting political giant.

To do this, he must unite all available resources.

As long as Simon Westero can support his re-election, and follow-up, there is no other problem.

As for the wealth and power that the young man has at this time that everyone else may have difficulty reaching, envy is useless, thinking too much can even make people feel powerless.

Arriving at the Oval Office, Vice President Al Gore got up and greeted Clinton and saw the black-haired female interns who came with him, frowning slightly without traces, and waiting for the other person to leave the two with coffee before leaving. With the remaining two people, Gore said straightforwardly: "Bill, I would recommend that girl to the Department of Defense just now, what do you think?"

Clinton had just picked up the coffee and took a sip. After hearing it, he only nodded and nodded quickly: "No problem."

Even Gore was concerned about this matter, and Clinton realized that it was time to let go, otherwise it might have unpredictable consequences.So although he was a little uncomfortable with Gore's straightforwardness, he agreed.

Al Gore nodded when he agreed with Clinton, he didn't say much, turned to the topic, and discussed today's topic with Clinton.

Indirectly still related to Simon.

As of yesterday's close, the Nasdaq has reached 3697 points.

Last time all parties jointly canceled Simon Westero's plan to suppress the Nasdaq index, but now, the rise of the Nasdaq is really out of control, and the increase in two months has exceeded 10, so continue in case, in case The Nasdaq can't support the election at the end of the year, which may be a big problem.

However, the two discussed for more than ten minutes without any clue.

I can't help thinking of Simon Westero's slow reduction strategy more than two months ago, which is actually correct.It's just that there are some things that everyone knows are correct, but it's difficult to implement, because the general trend is so.

Now that the entire Wall Street is in a frenzy, to be honest, the means they can use are definitely no more than Simon Westero, and they will not be smarter.

The most direct way is to push the Fed to raise interest rates, as Westero suggested early this year.

and then?

Raising interest rates is a double-edged sword chasing instability.

A little carelessness directly broke the new technology bubble.In this case, it is better to bet on a bet, betting that the index can last through November.

For a while, Gore looked at Clinton: "Where is Simon now?"

Clinton also shook his head: "I don't know, but it must be a beautiful place in China."

"Perhaps, you should take the time to call him."

Clinton hesitated a little and nodded: "I will contact him as soon as possible."

In fact, I also understand that this phone call is not asking someone for a plan, because the other party has already made suggestions to them, and instead of being adopted, it has disturbed someone's plan.Therefore, this phone call, to be more precise, just asks for peace of mind, hoping that someone can tell them that the Nasdaq can continue until the election.

China, Yangshuo.

On the other side of the Dongling Mountain on the other side of the county.

It is still morning on the east coast of the United States, and it is already late at night on the Chinese side.

In the past few days, Simon and Janet left the brigade, quietly climbed the Great Wall on Wednesday, and turned to see the Terracotta Warriors on Thursday. After all, in China, these iconic attractions are not to be seen. Friday, that is, today, afternoon Arrived in the small town of Yangshuo on the banks of the Li River in southern Guilin.

In the evening, standing in amazement on the terrace of the mountain top courtyard and watching the surrounding Qifeng towering, even though she was wealthy and traveled from a young age, Janet was still shocked by the heaven and earth creations in front of her.

Guilin's landscapes are well-known in the world.

I was very excited to enjoy the view of the sun setting, tasted the delicacies prepared here, and talked to Simon about the plan for the weekend, lingering with Simon about the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" I was reading recently, and I couldn’t bear to stay up late. Just went to sleep at this time.

The whole journey was a comfortable private jet. Simon's physical fitness was much stronger than Janet, but he was not drowsy at this time.

Janet shrugged in her arms like a cat, until the woman stopped murmuring. Then she looked at the last pages of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" under the bedside table lamp, while combing the latest things.

At the end of the two-day trip, Simon has been paying attention to follow-up feedback on this matter.

Except for Japan, South Korea and other Asian countries, the stock market has no other unexpected situation, so this is the best.

As long as this week passes, everything will be settled.

After all, Simon has never forgotten some of the potential risks that this visit may bring, whether it is political or economic, so it is not just that this visit is very large on the surface, privately, West The Luo family also invested heavily in the operation of public opinion.

Simon's goal is also the result of this visit can eventually form a'win-win'.

I don't know how long it took, the woman in her arms arched again, hummed a few times, and seemed dissatisfied.Simon smiled, put down the book, reached out and turned off the light.

Apricot flower spring rain south of the river.

Waking up the next day, there is no apricot blossoms, no spring rain, but the misty mountain scenery in the spring of Yangshuo City.

This is also Jiangnan.

On the terrace near the Li River overlooking the small town on the other side and the surrounding peaks, Janet wore a Han suit just delivered in the morning, not to have a charm, but also forced Simon to change a set, all a very light blue, sleeve The buckle and cardigan have the right hand embroidery, cotton style, can withstand the cold in the morning fog in the mountains.

Have breakfast together on the terrace.

Chen Qing, who also changed to a water-green Han suit, knelt and stood beside the short table, chatting and laughing. The girl was very pleased with Janet recently, and even Simon had to admire this kind of exquisiteness.
