"You have to make it clear to voters that you are not running around with a big gun every day, that's just a movie shot. In real life, you support gun control policies, you are a peace-loving person who likes to create harmony People of society.”

"You have to tell voters that you value family, you like children, and children are the future of a family and a country, so you will not cut education spending!"

"You also need to tell the voters that California belongs to everyone, and its prosperity and disgrace are inseparable from each of them. Therefore, to reduce California's fiscal crisis, you need the strength of each of them!"

"You have to tell them that California currently owes more than 30 billion U.S. dollars in debt, and now that the global economy is in recession, you have just taken over this job. You want them to be more patient and give you enough time. Because you are not You are the omnipotent superheroes in the movie, just like them, you are a flesh and blood person, you also have to eat, sleep, reunite with your family, get sick, and get tired!"

Fang Mingyuan spoke one by one. The more Schwarzenegger listened, the brighter his eyes became. He quickly found a pen and wrote it down. Some of Fang Mingyuan's suggestions had already occurred to them, while others they had ignored.

When Fang Mingyuan stopped, Schwarzenegger looked over his record again with joy on his face and frowned slightly. These suggestions from Fang Mingyuan are indeed useful and can help him gain the recognition of more voters. , can help him stabilize the situation and buy time after becoming the governor of California, but there are no specific suggestions that can be implemented to truly boost California's economy.

Of course, Fang Mingyuan could see Schwarzenegger's thoughts. He smiled and patted Schwarzenegger's arm and said, "Arnold, I can only give you a general direction on how to promote the economic development of California. Guidance on how to do it specifically, haha, to be honest, there is not much I can directly help you in California." The industries under the Fang family, except for those companies that secretly hold shares, are Hong Kong Kumho The film group and Guo's Shipping Group have relatively close economic ties with California. To be honest, the other industries are more developed in the United States. And promoting the development of tourism between the two countries is not an easy task. It requires Obtaining a visa to the United States, even a tourist visa, is a lot of trouble. Schwarzenegger took a deep breath, and he understood that Fang Mingyuan's words were not perfunctory. If he wanted to speed up the economic development of California, he would need a lot of money. Investment and more exports are needed, which cannot be decided in a short time.

"I hope that California can get out of the predicament under your leadership. I also hope that we can have more cooperation in the future, and that California and Qinxi Province can also have more cooperation!" Fang Mingyuan looked at his watch and said, "Perhaps inadvertently In time, the opportunity will come. I made an appointment with James, do you want to go with me?"

"Fang. Thank you for your suggestion!" Schwarzenegger said sincerely, "I won't go with you as soon as I have something else to do."

Fang Mingyuan stood up, hesitated for a moment and said: "Arnold, after you become the governor of California, remember that your biggest enemies are the state assembly and yourself. I hope you can remember your original goal of running for governor of California.

And, if you can, try to get a tax cut."

Fang Mingyuan got into the car and the car quickly drove out of Schwarzenegger's house.

"What's wrong? Did you not have a pleasant conversation with Arnold?" Uda Mitsuri came over in surprise. She was chatting with Schwarzenegger's wife in the garden just now and did not participate in the meeting between Fang Mingyuan and Schwarzenegger.

"No, no, it was a pleasant conversation." Fang Mingyuan shook his head and said, "But Arnold, he has created a big trouble for his future."

Although he supports Schwarzenegger's candidacy for California governor, this is mainly considered from two aspects. One is from the Fang family's perspective. If Schwarzenegger becomes the governor of California, the future development of the Fang family will be affected.

It must have a positive promotion effect. The other is that he knows that this is what Schwarzenegger himself really hopes for, so he does his best to promote this result.

However, from a friend's perspective, Schwarzenegger's candidacy for California governor is a huge challenge.

Although California is the largest economic state in the United States, to be honest, California's current economic prospects are not that optimistic. Schwarzenegger wants to improve California's financial situation, which can be said to be very difficult.

Difficult thing. As the saying goes, nothing freezes three feet in a day. There are a series of reasons why California is in the current situation. It is difficult to reverse this situation in one or two terms as governor.

It’s really hard!

In the United States, if the government wants to raise taxes, it will be subject to adverse restrictions in all aspects. It is absolutely impossible for the government to issue an order and the citizens will obediently raise taxes. Moreover, according to Americans’ own statistics, California’s corporate tax rate is

It ranks 46th in the United States, which is fifth from the bottom, while neighboring Oregon ranks ninth and Nevada ranks third! Its environmental protection requirements are the most stringent in the United States, and its oil prices are naturally among the highest in the United States.

The electrical industry is simply unable to compete with its counterparts in other states. Such high business operating costs will naturally cause many investors to avoid California, and even some large companies in the state will move to other states for development.

Its personal income tax ranks sixth in the country, while its neighbor Nevada does not charge personal income tax! This has also caused many local talents to move away.

That's why Fang Mingyuan suggested that he consider tax cuts. Only with tax cuts will more investors come to California, more companies will be established, and more people will be able to find jobs. Only then can California's economy be restored.

Get on the upward trajectory.

"Big trouble, haven't you always supported his candidacy for California governor?" Uda Mitsuri said with wide eyes. She and Schwarzenegger had a good relationship. During their time in the United States, Schwarzenegger was

He took good care of her.

Fang Mingyuan nodded speechlessly. In his previous life, after Schwarzenegger became the governor of California, the state assembly controlled by the Democratic Party repeatedly rejected the bills he proposed. During his entire term, the Republicans and Democrats struggled to solve the fiscal deficit problem.

We are on the verge of a big fight. In order to achieve their own goals, the two parties intentionally or unintentionally put these issues to a referendum. Of course, voters will oppose any increase in taxes and approve any increase in benefits. The result is that the income is not much.

Increases, expenditures continue to grow.

Therefore, today he reminded Schwarzenegger that it is best to make it clear from the beginning that in order to solve the fiscal crisis, the government will not increase taxes, but it will definitely not increase benefits. Anyway, tax increases in California are very difficult.

Difficult. In his previous life, during Schwarzenegger's many years in office, not many bills were successful, but many bills to increase welfare were passed.

If Schwarzenegger can truly understand his intentions, at least Fang Mingyuan believes that his career in this life will be smoother.

Fang Mingyuan put his arm around her waist and said, "This is Arnold's own choice. How can I keep pouring cold water on him? After he is elected, hehe, just arguing with the parliament will be a headache." Uda

Guangli opened her mouth in surprise. After living in Hollywood for so long, she certainly knew that California was the territory of the Democratic Party. Even if Schwarzenegger succeeded in becoming governor, the state assembly was still in the hands of the Democratic Party. California's

The State Legislature is not a human-shaped seal. Without its cooperation, the governor will not be able to succeed even if he wants to raise the salary of each public servant by one dollar!

Uda Mitsuri leaned on Fang Mingyuan and sighed softly: "Although I don't understand the economic situation in California, I also know that California's economy is obviously sluggish in growth."

Fang Mingyuan smiled bitterly. He also read a lot of information about California, and finally concluded that the reason why California is in this situation can be said to be a success or a failure. Before the 1990s, California had

The aerospace industry and the military industry were the leading industries in the state. At that time, McDonnell Douglas and Lockheed Corporation, located in California, were the two largest aerospace companies in the United States at the time and were also the largest arms dealers in the United States. Sources from the Department of Defense and the world

The arms procurement from various countries has made their lives extremely prosperous, and they have also driven many supporting companies in California, which has given California's economy a strong engine.

However, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States began to drastically reduce military spending. Naturally, these two companies were unable to make ends meet, and their supporting companies had an even harder time. Until the merger of Lockheed and Martin, McDonnell Douglas was

Boeing annexed. But no one thought that although the aerospace and military industries were in decline, California's strong electronic technology foundation formed by the military industry made the IT industry suddenly emerge in California and led a generation of world-wide industrial revolution.

As the birthplace of the IT industry and the area with the highest concentration of wealth, California's finances are naturally rising, with huge fiscal revenue every year. The welfare of Californians is naturally getting better and better, but the good times do not last long...

The bubble of the Internet economy burst! The Nasdaq Composite Index collapsed!

After the dot-com economic bubble burst, California's finances suddenly fell into a situation where it could not make ends meet!
