Reborn American Giants

Chapter 4 Teaching,

"Joining Jose's side is also an option. The current mayor of San Salvador, Carreño, is also a key member of the Christian Democratic Party. In San Salvador, you can get an easier starting point." Luisa continued to work for Victor.

Analyzing which side he can get the greatest "benefits" by joining, "leftist forces" should not be considered.

"First of all, if you want to run for office, you need a campaign office, a high-speed and efficient campaign team, a campaign platform that can impress people, and strong financial support."

"A campaign office? This should be easy to solve. I will find a place in the city to serve as my campaign office." Victor took out a cigarette, lit it without smoking, just held it between his fingertips and let it burn slowly.

He thought about Louisa's question, "But the campaign team? You know, I don't have people who are familiar with politics."

Louisa lay in Victor's arms, reached out and took the burning cigarette from his hand, held it between her green fingers, brought it to her mouth, and took a puff, "Well, I can help you solve this problem.

Remember Dario?"

"Huh?!" Of course Victor remembered Dario, a college student who graduated from Central American University and Blanco's secretary. He was bribed by Luisa and became a "nail" buried beside Blanco. Victor recalled

When I met Dario for the first time, his expression was full of "disdain", as if talking to "gangsters" like Sorvino and Victor was a giving attitude.

Thinking of this, Victor looked at Luisa with "suspicious" eyes. Could it be that she wanted to do what she had done to Blanco again?

Seeing Victor's distrust of her "purpose", Louisa curled her lips, lightly opened her lips covered with light purple lip gloss, and exhaled a puff of smoke, "You think too much, Dario once had an affair with me.

The agreement is that I will use the power of my family to really get him into politics, and he will help me deal with Blanco. We are just a cooperative relationship, just like you and me, and..."

After a pause, Louisa said to Victor in a "contemptuous" tone: "What do you have that I can covet now? I think you think too highly of yourself. What I invest in is your future. Da

Leo is your best choice now. He is familiar with the politicians in San Salvador and understands the rules of the officialdom. It is perfect for him to serve as your campaign manager."

Luisa pushed Dario to Victor's side. She really had no other bad "purpose". In addition to helping Victor, she could also fulfill her agreement with Dario and really push him into the officialdom. After all, Dario

Although Austria is familiar with the official situation in San Salvador, that is what he had to know as Blanco's secretary. Now if he wants to end his own life, he has to start from scratch. Well, Victor's campaign manager is a good choice.

It’s really a “kill two birds with one stone” thing.

Victor nodded "noncommittally". Even if Dario came to him with any other purpose, Victor would make him understand that it was not a wise decision to attack his "idea".

"After solving all this, the biggest problem is left, campaign funds." Luisa put out the half-burned cigarette in her hand in the ashtray, picked up the wine glass on the bedside table, took a sip, and gave it to

Victor, a "newbie", explained so much, I was really thirsty.

"Campaign funds are divided into two categories. One is funds donated to you by individuals or groups. This type of funds can be freely used by you. I call it "campaign funds." The other is funds donated to the party.

Funding, just like if you join the Christian Democratic Party and become a member of it, but if you participate in an election, the party will also invest in helping you. However, the size of this help depends on how much the party values ​​you.

As a recent member like you, I think you shouldn’t have high hopes for such party funds.”

Victor nodded thoughtfully, "So what you're saying is that I have to find a way to expand my "active funds"?"

"Yes, after all, parliamentary politics is a money game. Jose changed El Salvador's political system. Although it was to eliminate the possibility of the military "interfering in politics," he also started a "money game." In future elections,

It will completely become a game for the rich." Luisa said mockingly.

Although Jose's political reform did not follow the opinions of his American consultant Essien Capone and copy the American Senate and House of Representatives systems, but took into account the size of El Salvador and established only one National Assembly, but the election campaign

The system adopted Essien Capone’s opinion, that is, each candidate must report every campaign fund he or she obtains to the higher-level campaign committee, and the funds can only come from donations from the public or groups.

Citizens can only donate no more than $200 to a candidate and no more than $3,000 to a group or institution. This is to prevent a rich and powerful person from making endless donations from his bank account.

Transfer funds to the campaign account and use your financial advantage to overwhelm your opponents.

The system is dead, but people are alive. Politicians participating in the game have no other skills than their ability to exploit loopholes in such rules. Otherwise, there would be no "election fraud" and "political donations"

"The problem exists.

"Fandino under your control is your greatest strength now." Louisa said with some "jealousy". Any candidate who is running for the first time can steadily get 40,000 votes. Running for a "city councilor" is really

It is difficult to lose even if you want. The entire population of El Salvador is 5.1 million, and San Salvador, as the capital, has 1.2 million people...

"You mean, there are regulations on the source of funds, but there are no regulations on the number of donations, right?" The smart Victor quickly discovered the biggest "loophole" in this rule, "I should file a report with the city council now, as soon as possible

Pad my campaign finance account?"

"However, this kind of donor must be qualified to vote. If a donation is made by someone who is not qualified to vote, it is "political black money." If you accept it, the District Attorney's Office will come to you for coffee by then.

." Louisa didn't want to say this kind of thing so "straightforwardly", but it was a fact.

The "voting qualifications" she refers to are that you must be a native of El Salvador, have no criminal record within three years, and have a legal job as a civilian. Victor said that being an employee of "Fandino Construction Company" is considered a legal job.

, if it is not enough, he can also set up several short-selling companies such as "Fandino Educational Institution" and "Fandino Property Management Company" to "enroll" all those who are qualified to vote in Fandino.

It's just fine for these companies. Anyway, Fandino has the final say now.

"It's easy to say. As long as it requires more people to handle things, it's not a problem. I'll start taking care of it when I get back."

"Now that you have a campaign team and the funding problem has been solved, you have to think about a "campaign slogan." This will be your future political platform, and all your campaign actions will be carried out around this platform."

Louisa is "good at teaching". She feels that Victor is really a young man with "political talent". Victor can always think about the questions she raises and think of the unfinished "language" in her words, which is very good.

Well, in the officialdom, everyone is an "actor" wearing a mask. Everyone is a master of "discourse". Having sensitivity to this kind of "discourse" can at least guarantee that you can avoid being criticized.

Being "misled" by the person standing in front of you.
