Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 842 Bush Family

   This time Yang Chen came to Whitehead and Weinberg for help, mainly because of the deep friendship between Goldman Sachs and Warner Bros.

  In the 1920s, the American film market was booming. As the film industry business began to flourish, Warner Films obtained its first loan on Wall Street from Goldman Sachs.

  Warner Films acquired the first studio in the history of Warners Films by relying on the investment obtained from Goldman Sachs at that time, which played an important role in later making Warners Films one of the eight major film giants in the United States.

  Yang Chen dare not underestimate the influence of Warner Bros., let alone the rights of the current US President Ronald Reagan.

   In 1981, the Reagan administration implemented tax reform, which lowered the top tax rate from 70% to 28%, which greatly weakened the progressiveness of taxation and played a very important role in promoting the US economy.

   After two years, the tax cuts implemented by Reagan in his first term have had a very big effect, creating a good investment environment for the United States.

   Since the biggest beneficiaries of tax cuts are the capitalists and the American public, Reagan is supported by most Americans at this stage.

   With the high approval rate, President Reagan's next re-election will obviously not have any obstacles.

   In the face of such a president who has no pressure to be re-elected, Yang Chen feels that he can't take it too seriously.

   As a foreign company, it has always been difficult to do well in the United States. If the president of the United States stumbles again, it will be a complete failure.

   Yang Chen doesn't believe the rumors on the Internet in later generations that the president of the United States is just a sounding board for capitalists, puppets and the like.

  Comrade Chuan Jianguo in later generations, he is the unreliable brother of the United States. He has proved with facts that the power of the President of the United States is still quite large.

   No matter how wronged the big farmers in the United States are, no matter how happy the big capitalists are, no matter how much they oppose him, no matter how the media blacks him, it doesn't affect him at all in exercising his rights.

  From our comrades Chuan Jianguo, we need to face up to this and not follow what others say.

  Winberg said: "Yang, I think we know what to do, don't worry, we will do our best in this matter."

   "By the way, Yang, I personally suggest that you can find an opportunity to have a good talk with Mr. Bush. He is very optimistic about the development of Orange Technology."

   Hearing Weinberg's reminder, Yang Chen patted his head and cursed himself for being confused.

Starting in the 1980s, Yang Chen remembers the next few U.S. presidents quite clearly, especially the Bush family. In the history of American politics, the Bush family is the second father and son in the United States to ascend the throne of the United States successively. 's family.

  In history, the old Bush father and son can be said to be the more legendary presidents in the history of the United States. Many people in later generations have summed up their father and son, and the old Bush father and son belong to the category of war madmen.

  The two fathers and sons have little internal affairs skills, but when they fight, they are not ambiguous, and they are all surprisingly consistent in their actions, that is to say hello to the Middle East.

  The Bush family is engaged in oil business. Bush himself is a veritable oil tycoon. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the United States successively attacked the oil countries in the Middle East in order to control oil resources.

   As it happens, the Bush family is engaged in oil business, so after the two fathers and sons became presidents, they were really ruthless towards the Middle East, and their attitude towards the oil countries in the Middle East was just one policy, that is, if they refuse to accept it, they will do it.

   For the Bush family, Yang Chen will naturally preempt the bet. Although Bush will have to wait for several years before taking the presidency, the other party is now the vice president.

The vice president has served two terms, the president has served two terms, and then Bush Jr. has served two terms. Throughout the late twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first century, the Bush family has been active in American politics. &family.

   Bush Sr. met with him privately before, and he promised to provide campaign funds to the Republican Party, in order to obtain the Republican Party's promise to protect his industry in the United States.

   However, there are many uncertainties in politics. It is impossible for people to say that they will protect you, but they will protect you sincerely.

  Politics is full of compromises. If you believe all politicians, you will be the only one who will suffer in the end.

   As a foreigner, it is impossible for him to personally participate in American politics. He can only selectively seek partners who are consistent with his own interests.

As for the Bush family, they are not purely political families. Many U.S. presidents are rich people themselves, just like the unreliable brothers behind him. Needing the help of others, he could have paid for himself to run for president.

  And the Bush family, as an oil tycoon, whoever has a little bit of oil in these days, is not without a fortune.

   Bush established several oil companies successively before he became president. It can be said that he was one of the most rich presidents in American history.

   In a capitalist society, the people who control all walks of life, the national economy, and even the government are basically capitalists.

   Now Bush Sr. is the vice president, and he is also a businessman, capitalist, and oil tycoon. He represents the most powerful consortium in the United States.

  The biggest pursuit of capitalists is profit.

   Therefore, when Weinberg reminded him a little, Yang Chen immediately understood what to do next.

   He doesn't need to sneakily bribe Bush, he just needs to conduct business cooperation with the oil company under Bush's name through normal business channels, and he can tie the other party firmly to himself.

  Under the same interests, he encounters trouble. As long as it is not too big, he does not need to worry about it at all. The other party will use his personal connections to help him solve the troubles within his ability.

As the current President Ronald Reagan from the grassroots, he is very reliant on the vice president of the oil tycoon, Bush. The president of the United States has no right to abolish the vice president. Whether it is the president or the vice president, they are all voted by voters. decided.

  Although most of the time, the vice president of the United States only exercises relevant powers as the representative of the president, nominally the second-in-command of the country, but in fact, he does not have much power.

   However, Bush Sr. is different. As an oil tycoon, Bush Sr. represents the power of the American consortium behind him. Reagan, as a grassroots, needs the support of the forces behind Bush Sr.

   Therefore, the biggest difference between Bush Sr. and many other vice presidents is that his political power is greater than that of many vice presidents.

  Especially Reagan had suffered an assassination incident before. Although there was no glorious sacrifice, his health was still greatly affected.

   In this case, Bush Sr., the vice president's right, is relatively greater.
