Blackstone Code

In the rules of the game of capital, when two individuals with huge differences in size begin to collide, the most unsolvable method is to hurt others with their own strengths.

I'll trade a loss of two dollars for you to lose a dollar.

I can afford a loss of 10 million, but you can only afford a loss of 1 million.

In the end, I only need to lose two million to make you bankrupt.

After you go bankrupt and lose the challenger, the winner can continue to enjoy the rolling dividends brought by formulating the rules!

And this advantage will become bigger and bigger, becoming more and more difficult to challenge, and eventually form a monopoly!

Of course, today's federal capitalists will never be stupid enough to actually create a superficial monopoly. They will split themselves into several companies to compete with each other.

Competition comes and goes. In fact, the left hand fights the right hand, but at this time, if someone has a hot head and joins in...

Then I'm sorry, I'm just hitting people with my left and right hands at the same time!

This kind of hurtful method is absolutely unsolvable in industries without technical thresholds. Those industries with technical thresholds are slightly better. After all, an unexpected technological invention may bring about the possibility of a dramatic comeback.

But in the fast food industry, forget it!

Jenny has a very keen sense of smell, and Lynch gave her high recognition and praise for these ideas, "It is a very wise decision to avoid competing with competitors at their home stadium, but you must also consider what you need to make after going to the lower market. Some changes."

"For example, in some cities with a slower pace of life, their reliance on fast food is far less than that in fast-paced cities like Bupen."

“People don’t have a huge demand for fast food like people do here.”

"You have to adjust the direction of operations in a timely manner to turn your fast food restaurant into a place similar to a fast food restaurant, which can provide customers with more dining experience and environment."

After listening to this, Jenny nodded repeatedly. These were very valuable experiences. She believed that Lynch’s business advice was correct.

Seeing that Jenny still seemed to be motivated to learn, Lynch thought for a while and then said, "After you have established a certain scale in the surrounding market, you can consider financing."

“But financing needs to be treated carefully, and be careful of competitors infiltrating.”

Capital is willing to do anything. As long as it can achieve its goal, they can use any means.

For example, investing in competitors' companies is what they do most.

Many people think this is impossible. They are obviously competitors, so why send money to them so that they have more funds to compete with them?

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this view itself. This is indeed the case if these people do not interfere with operations.

They send money to their competitors, and then the competitors get the funds and quickly grow themselves, but the premise of all this is that everyone aims at the profit of this enterprise.

But the purpose of these competitors' investments is not to help their opponents develop, but to create all kinds of trouble for their opponents.

For example, rejecting some good development suggestions at the shareholders' meeting, agreeing to some development directions that obviously have huge risks, or simply making trouble everywhere.

These are actually relatively common methods, but they are also very useful. After all, once financing is completed, it is not the founder who has the final say, and the opinions of the shareholders' meeting must be respected.

Jenny’s eyes were shining as she listened to Lynch’s talk!

This is something that cannot be learned in school. The teachers will only tell her that as long as she can raise funds, it means that she can be on the fast track of development, and then she can consider going public.

If the world was really so simple and pure, there wouldn't be so many disasters and wars.

The two of them wandered out for most of the day and had lunch at the casino at noon.

It must be said that in order to provide the ultimate enjoyment for dog gamblers, the cooks at the Nine Casinos are top-notch.

They are like magicians with ingredients, able to turn simple and ordinary things into extraordinary and extraordinary.

In the afternoon, the two returned to Lynch's villa. When Lynch was getting ready to go to work, Jenny asked a question, "Will you marry Catherine in the future?"

Lynch looked at her squarely, "If I must get married, I will only marry her."

The light in Jenny's eyes dimmed a lot, and she squeezed out a smile, "Is this a happy ending?"

Without waiting for Lynch to say anything, she said goodbye to him and returned to her room.

The story of Lynch and Catherine is known to everyone in the Commonwealth, and many people think that they should be together. If Lynch and Catherine really get married, then this will really be a happy ending.

But for others, it's not so perfect!

Slem is really busy these days during the New Year. The central block is completely blocked, and the city hall has issued an emergency notice.

Before January 15th, all vehicles were prohibited from entering the inner ring, which alleviated the traffic congestion problem in Slem.

And this also gave Slem City Hall an early warning that the city's road planning may not be enough!

Although Lynch has relaxed the scope of Slem's road design, he still underestimated people's love for the place.

He previously believed that urban congestion was caused by the city's first generation of planners not being able to see the future.

But now he no longer thinks so. Slem's single-sided five-lane road design is outrageous anywhere, but it is still tightly blocked.

People are still too enthusiastic.

In addition, the lack of parking lots is also an incentive. Many cars end up parked on the roadside, which also accelerates road congestion.

The temperature in winter is getting colder and colder, and more and more people are willing to spend the winter in Nagalier.

The environment here is the best, and the humanities and culture are also more interesting. Whether it is in the three states of the federation or in the primitive area of ​​​​Nagalir in the west, it is a very good choice.

In mid-January, Catherine had handed over all the work in her hands. After giving the last speech to the state government, she gave up the rostrum to the newly appointed governor, completing the final step in the transfer of power.

The scene was broadcast live on television stations in Slem, and across the state, and across Nagaril, starting from the moment Catherine retreated to the edge of the stage and then left.

The stage belonged to the person on the rostrum. The flashlight was flashing more crazily than before. The new governor could only squint his eyes.

Not many people cared about Catherine's whereabouts. The reporters who had surrounded her now wanted to put the microphone into the mouth of the new governor.

"Do you feel a little... left out?" Lynch asked casually as he and Catherine walked outside backstage.

Catherine thought for a while and nodded, "It would be a lie to say there is no answer. You know, I have paid a lot for this place..."

This is where Catherine first became governor, but also where she started from nothing.

When she came here, it was still in ruins. Under her plan, cities were built one after another.

Of course, Lynch and the professor did have a lot of credit for this, but she herself also did a lot.

This place is like a paradise she built according to her own ideas. Now this paradise no longer belongs to her. At the moment when power is transferred, she seems to feel abandoned.

The feeling was complicated. The moment she left the stage and the spotlight, she glanced at the back of the new governor.

The flashes and spotlights magnified his back infinitely, and the shadow even completely covered her!

Lynch took her hand and shook it firmly, "This is politicians and their job. You know, in order to eliminate the problem of dictatorship, Congress has come up with a lot of things to solve these possible troubles."

"You have to get used to these things because this is politics."

"You may change jobs many times in the future, and you have to learn to adapt to it."

Catherine took a breath and smiled slightly, "So the next step, is Congress?"

Lynch nodded, "This is the path you must take to get to the position of president. You can also run for president as a governor."

"But compared to other presidents who go through the process, you seem to be missing something."

"You know, the federal process is the most important, more important than justice itself!"

Most of the presidents of the federation come from the Senate. It does not mean that you must be a senator to be qualified to be president, but that a senator has a greater chance of becoming president.

Presidents who are not senators are relatively "weaker" in all aspects than presidents with senatorial experience.

For example, their influence in Congress will be weaker.

Mr. Trueman even went so far as to confront Congress directly!

If it weren't for his military background and being a wartime president, he would definitely not be able to defeat Congress!

Even though President Bowling had such a huge scandal, he was still not impeached by Congress.

It’s not because everyone thinks he’s older and has some special hobbies that can tolerate him. It’s purely because of his long tenure as a senator and his family connections that allow him to get more support in Congress!

The president and Congress are often antagonistic, but at the same time there is a lot of cooperation. As long as there are enough interests, their relationship can become very, very complicated!

Catherine lacked a prominent political background. Although her ancestors were also among the first immigrants, compared with those nobles and capitalists, her ancestors were probably sailors or something like that.

Not even a sailor!

Without a distinguished background, she will have to fill the gap here and others through her congressional resume.

This process is even more important.

While the two were talking, they left the state government office building through the corridor. Looking at the bright sky outside the window, Catherine nodded vigorously, "Then come!"

"No matter how many times I get knocked down, I will get up again for our dreams!"

Lynch hugged her shoulders and said, "I won't let anyone knock you down. No one can do this. Congress is more like a place for further study for you than a arena..."
