Indulge in Life in America
Chapter 1860: The yacht is almost ready
"Then? Everything is negotiable. I can give what Freeport can give him, and I can give more. I can't think of a reason for him not to cooperate with me."
Demien shook his head, "Don't be too confident, you haven't met Marshall, let alone understand him."
"Then you tell me, don't you know?"
Demien looked hard to say anything, Yang Cheng raised his glass and said, "Come on, take a drink and speak slowly~"
After drinking a glass of red wine, Demien finally said, "If there is still a tyrant, Marshall is definitely one. This is a person with cold blood. You also know that the Ministry of State has always been the world of civil officials, but Marshall has been on the battlefield. He was born as a seal and was once an admiral of the Marine Corps."
Yang Orange's pupils shrank slightly, this sentence was enough to prove Marshall's ability.
Of course, it is never absolute for civilians to be in charge of the army. As long as the candidate of Minister Guofang has left the active military service for at least 7 years, he can be elected.
Previously, this rule was 10 years, and then it was changed to 7 years, and Marshall was still serving as commander three years ago, so he was not eligible to be a candidate.
But the law is determined by people, and naturally it can be changed by others.
Why should civilian officials control the army?
The constitution clearly stipulates that it is one aspect, for example, Chief Tong is the commander-in-chief of the army.
The Constitution grants Congress the power to form and support the military, and Congress also has the power to declare war, but as the recent war in the Middle East has shown, the US military can fight without officially declaring war.
The principle of civilian control of the military is rooted in the belief in checks and balances of power. It prevents the United States and other democracies from becoming countries where the military frequently initiates changes to overthrow the ZF.
This principle ensures that the military is only a tool that ZF can use in conflicts and disputes. Of course, the tool cannot be turned around to attack itself.
To put it bluntly, it is a means of self-protection for those in power, and other reasons are just excuses.
"So he is different from ordinary civil servants. Simply promising money will probably not get the effect you want."
Yang Cheng doesn't think there is anything. Don't like money and always like other things, right? People have desires!
"Then find something he likes to send. I still don't believe that he is a penance."
"That's not the case, you can investigate and try."
"anything else?"
"Furthermore, this person has a very good relationship with the person who just came on stage, maybe you can find a way to open a breakthrough in that person."
This is not difficult to understand. Without that person's support, Marshall would not even be eligible for nomination.
"I would also like to know what's wrong with him and Freeport. I don't believe that a copper mining company will support a high-level jun party somehow."
"It's up to you to dig it out, at least I haven't heard relevant news."
Yang Cheng was silent for a while and then said again, "By the way, you just said that Marshall might meet me?"
Demien nodded affirmatively, "The last time he reported to him, he mentioned that he wanted to meet and talk with you."
"That's something to talk about? Would you like to ask him for me?"
Demien hesitated slightly and nodded, "I can try it for you, but don't expect him to sell my face."
She promised to help Yang Cheng meet Marshall, and then left.
Yang Cheng didn't leave. He was waiting for the next visitor, the designer of Damen Shipbuilding. His expedition yacht has been built seven or eight. It was originally modified on the basis of other people's orders, and the construction period was naturally shortened indefinitely.
This time the designer came here to discuss budget issues with Yang Cheng, because shipbuilding technology is changing with each passing day, and new technologies are born almost every day, and it is normal for super yachts to change the budget to ensure the use of the most cutting-edge technology.
"Mr. Yang, I'm glad to meet again~"
Yang Cheng had forgotten what the other party was called, but felt familiar, and pointed to the sofa opposite, "Sit down, what to drink?"
"The same is fine~"
I personally poured a glass of red wine for the other party and asked, "When will my yacht be delivered?"
"If nothing happens, mid-year should be fine~"
"Very well, I hope I can take my wife on a brand new yacht to embark on a global honeymoon journey, everything depends on you~"
"We will do our best~"
After a sip, the designer said, “I’m here this time to confirm with Mr. Yang that we will carry out an ice-breaking transformation on the stern of the yacht. When the current ice cube is too thick to move forward, the two pod propellers can complete 180 Degree flip.
In addition, we have improved the endurance of the yacht. According to our expectation, the yacht will be able to sail for 50 days without docking. This is an endurance that no yacht in the world can reach. "
Yang Cheng certainly doesn't mind that his yacht becomes better, even if he spends more money on it, it doesn't matter, "Just say how much budget you need to increase~"
"20 million~" The designer likes big clients like Yang Cheng. The money is so easy to pay, which makes him feel unreal.
"I know, I will add this extra budget to the mid-term payment, hoping that I will not be disappointed when it is delivered."
"Absolutely not~" The designer vowed to guarantee.
"By the way, for the small submarine I requested, you'd better also improve the endurance."
He specifically requested that a submarine be equipped on the yacht, which can usually go underwater for sightseeing and can be used for emergency escape when necessary.
Of course, designers will try their best to meet the special needs of the rich. Moreover, Yang Cheng’s requirements are very common. Designers have also seen even more exotic requirements, such as designing a kart track on a yacht and preferring karts on land. Can't you play? Must run on the ocean? I'm not afraid that I can't stop the car and rush into the sea.
"No problem, Mr. Yang, by the way, are there special requirements for the delivery location?"
Yang Cheng said without hesitation, "It's best to be in Fiji. I hope that after the wedding, I can take my wife and family to start a global trip immediately.
It just so happens that you can conduct sea trials on the way to Fiji. "
"I know Mr. Yang~"
"I look forward to the day when the yacht is delivered. You have worked hard. If you are okay, you might as well stay for lunch. The steaks in this clubhouse are not bad."
"This is our honor~"
During the meal, the designer deliberately or unintentionally raised the issue of Damen Shipbuilding’s debt. Originally thought that with Yang Cheng’s big order, he would at least be able to survive for a few more years. Who would have thought that the debt would continue to increase, and if there is no financial owner Appears, it is estimated that Yang Cheng's order will be closed afterwards.
It's a pity that the designer's words are tantamount to playing the piano to a cow. No matter how he hinted, Yang Cheng just didn't respond, and even pretended to be incomprehensible. He was also drunk. Would you like to be such a chicken thief?
Yang Cheng did it deliberately. She made it clear that she didn't want to invest, so should she say it clearly?
Once the other party makes a mess, what should I do if I build him a problematic yacht?
It's not his villain's heart to save the belly of a gentleman. This kind of thing is too common, don't believe it? You are stuck in the fast food restaurant to order the burger set meal 5 minutes before get off work, so you are guaranteed to taste the spit meal.
. . .
Tomorrow is Martin Luther King Jr. Day. One day is a public holiday. When I get off work, there are a lot more pedestrians on the road, and all of them have smiles on their faces. Obviously they are preparing for a carnival. For Lao Mei, a holiday party It is essential, regardless of whether these few days have anything to do with yourself.
Anyway, the Yang family does not have the habit of celebrating holidays. Martin Luther King is great, but he has no relationship with the Yang family and the Chinese. What can be celebrated?
But the holidays can be used.
Recently, because of the precise selection of the Yang family's team, the tide has risen. Many people related to the Yang family have benefited. Naturally, the Yang family's position in the Chinese community has become more detached.
Not as soon as the holiday came, some people took the opportunity to give gifts to the Yang family, hoping to connect with this increasingly powerful family.
Had it not been for the Yang family had already announced the identity of the fiancée, it is estimated that Yang Cheng would not have to do anything else this year, just blind dates could exhaust him.
God knows how many Chinese families are eager to give their daughters to Yang Cheng to change the destiny of the family.
Even concubines are fine. In the hearts of traditional Chinese families, it is normal to have multiple concubines. What? Moral issue? Our ancestors have lived this way for thousands of years, so why is it immoral?
Besides, in the face of family interests, morality is a shit.
So, when Yang Cheng returned home in a hurry, he saw this scene:
The original huge sky villa was like a large blind date in a corner of the park. Some brought their daughters in person, and some used photos to make up the numbers without their daughters around.
As soon as he walked in, Yang Cheng heard an old aunt calling his girl what is good, and even the birth date burst out.
Seeing that it was wrong, Yang Cheng turned around and was about to run, but was stopped by the sharp-eyed Liu Yun, "Son, come here soon~"
This time was good, dozens of pairs of eyes in the audience, like radiating lasers, came from the stabbing in a daze. Yang Cheng's feeling was no longer like a glow on his back, and his whole body was penetrated by fiery eyes.
Bite the scalp, walk through the group of people who have separated automatically to come to Liu Yun, "Mom, what's the situation?"
Liu Yun is also dumbfounded. It is reasonable to say that her son is valued by so many people is a happy thing~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But she really can’t be happy. She has a clear heart for what purpose is here, and more importantly, She also has no room to play. Her son is now a master, so she can't divorce. Let her have the addiction of screening daughter-in-law?
There was no way, but to leave this chaotic situation to Yang Cheng and ran away by himself.
"That son, these aunts are here for you. Please treat me well. I have something to do. Go upstairs and make a call."
After finishing speaking, she didn't give Yang Cheng a chance to refuse at all, turned around and ran, leaving Yang Cheng dumbfounded by the aunts.
It's a real mother, it's natural to cheat her son, and it's not soft.
Why did you go? Isn't it the same as the current situation just after taking out this kind of body?
Yang Cheng was slanderous, but there was no use for Luan. The scene was all messed up, and there seemed to be 10,000 ducks in his ears, croaking and croaking.
Finally, I couldn't help it, and shouted, "Stop!"
