Blackstone Code

Chapter 1231: This is politics

Hicks didn't sleep much all night, and his inability to fall asleep was the key.

   He got up just after eight o'clock. Now there are a lot of rumors outside, saying everything.

   Some people say that he has been restricted from moving and may be thrown into prison anytime, anywhere.

   Some people also said that he was involved in tens of millions of money laundering activities, using his identity as a cover, laundering a large amount of black money, and had very strong relationships with some gangs.

   Some people say that he intends to make Honshu independent!

   Of course, some people say that he actually has no problems. He hasn't made a sound now, just to make more clowns jump out.

   The fact that there is no further news so far is not that Hicks is unwilling to defend himself, but simply because they need to find the "man behind the scenes" and then make certain deals with the man behind the scenes.

   If he blindly whitewashes and soon throws more practical and effective evidence behind the scenes, it will only make people think that he is a liar, a fraudster, and thus completely sever his political career.

   But if he can reach an agreement with Lynch, then he will be whitewashed, and if no further black material is exposed, he will also be whitewashed.

  Even if he was going to lose the election in the end, at least he saved his dignity and his political career!

   Whitewashing, rebuttal, sometimes not so simple.

   After he woke up, he stayed by the phone and called Lynch at around nine o'clock. This time Lynch did not hang up the phone or ask him to change time.

   He talked a lot about his political program and governance ideas on the phone. These are all things a politician must have, and he must have a clear-cut stand.

   If it is not clear enough, then it will definitely not be liked by people, which is very fatal.

This call looks like a very normal call. Hicks is narrating his political position and seems to hope to get some support from Lynch, even if the call is recorded and analyzed by people, they It is also unlikely to directly analyze the unfavorable part for Lynch.

   He just listened the whole time and didn't express any of his opinions until the end.

   "Mr. Lynch, do you think there is anything I need to add?"

   "What do you think of some of my thoughts?"

   Lynch thought about it for a while, and after saying something he did have, he said, "If you give you enough time, you will become a great person, Mr. Hicks."

   This sentence immediately made Hicks' heart fall. The Federalists don't like going around in circles, but there are always things that cannot be avoided.

   Then he carefully tentatively asked, "Recently, some public opinions in society seem to be trying to discredit me. I hope this will not affect your opinion of me."

Lynch’s answer is still very “focused”, “Excellent people will always have many enemies and opponents, Hicks, I’ll send you a sentence, “Sand can’t bury gold. When the sun rises to the sky, there will always be There is golden light coming out'!"

   "I believe that people will realize like me that rumors are only rumors after all. They are far from the truth. They can only fool people for a while, but they cannot deceive people forever!"

   answered very positively, and then Hicks repeatedly thanked him and hung up the phone.

   Hicks nodded to the head of his campaign office, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

   The entire Conservative Party leaders learned about this last night, and they did not accuse Hicks of wasting party resources.

   In fact, finding faults from others during various general elections is simpler and more effective than finding ways to improve yourself, and it is also very cheap!

   Fabricate some facts, or select some from some previous rumors to be processed and then released. These methods are harsh and low-cost, but their effect is very unusual!

   Hicks is not the only problem in the Federation. Almost most politicians have dirty butts, but he was very unlucky to run into an opponent he couldn't fight against.

   If this time his opponent is not Ms. Tracy, not Lynch, but a middle-level cadre of the Progressive Party, perhaps the situation will be reversed again.

   Bowing your head and admitting defeat is not a shameful behavior in politics. As long as people do not die, politics will continue.

   Today’s failure does not mean that tomorrow will also fail. It’s still a long time, and there is always time to win.

  Hicks has a good set of people, very charismatic. This time he lost but it was not devastating. He can continue to play next time.

   Isn’t it two years?

   And they let it happen this time, next time Lynch should be more or less, and should give them some face, which is also a kind of return.

   Lynch’s reply reached the ears of the Conservative Party’s senior management, everyone was relieved, or solved some problems.

   The chairman of the Conservative Party returned to the fairway and swung the club vigorously.

   In a gust of wind, the golf ball was beaten out and flew far!

   "Nice shot!", there was another old man standing not far away, not tall, and a little flattered.

   He slapped his palm twice, very perfunctory, and then walked to the batting position, waiting for the caddy to put the golf ball back.

   They didn't play on the court, they played on fixed fairways.

   The weather has cooled down now, and keeping warm is also a necessary condition for the elderly to live longer.

   They avoided the strong wind and cold weather outside, and got exercise again. It was great!

   "The action of hitting the ball has become easier after you answered the phone just now. It seems to be good news." The old man who was preparing to hit the ball said from a distance.

   The chairman of the Conservative Party Committee wiped off his sweat, went to the side chair and sat down, picked up the cup and drank some water.

   He cocked his legs and nodded, "Hicks's, you won!"

  The old man who hit the ball was taken aback, and then laughed loudly, "It's not I who won, it's the young people who won!"

   He swung the club vigorously as he said, and the golf disappeared from their sight in an instant.

   For old people like them, the ball can't be seen after flying too far. The caddy will tell them how many meters they have flown.

   So as long as it doesn’t take off, every hit is a good shot.

   The purpose of sports has surpassed the desire to pursue a "good game"!

   The short old man turned and looked at the chairman of the Conservative Party Committee, "You have to admit that you are old, you know?"

   "From now on, it will be the world of young people."

   The chairman of the Conservative Party Committee hummed twice, "But I heard that Lynch is unwilling to enter politics. This may be good news for us."

   The short old man got the distance he flew after hitting the ball from the caddie, and he was very satisfied with his swing strength.

   The caddie placed a golf ball again, and he began to prepare before hitting the ball again, and at the same time said, "But his girlfriend is in politics..."

   This old man is not someone else, he is the chairman of the Progressive Party Committee. The two of them used to be students at the same university, and their relationship was very good during the school.

   Later, because of different political ideas, he joined different political parties, and after so many years of hard work, he finally stood at the top of the federation!

   If there is anything in the Federation that can surpass or rank alongside capitalists, it must be them!

On the other hand, Hicks began to organize a press conference quickly to clarify some rumors in the society, and the local tax bureau proved that Mr. Hicks was not involved in any illegal case. On the contrary, he provided important information for solving the case. evidence!

  Sometimes people’s minds are very complicated. They are obviously just some simple phenomena. They can imagine what behind the scenes is manipulating everything in this society madly!

  They even believe that all the high-level federal leaders have become aliens, and the purpose is to enslave them!

   But sometimes they are very simple, for example, just a simple clarification, they believe it!

  Ms. Tracy obviously realized that Lynch had finished the shot, and she also stood up and looked very friendly and showed support for Hicks.

   She told reporters in front of the media that Mr. Hicks she knew was a decent gentleman, not a criminal.

   She was very happy that Hicks was able to remove the suspicion from her body and clarify some issues, and she believed that Mr. Hicks should stand up a few days earlier.

   A reporter asked Ms. Tracy whether she would feel regretful because of Mr. Hicks' clarification, because now she has lost her advantage.

   Ms. Tracy’s answer is very good. She said that it doesn’t matter who wins the election. The important thing is that the person who wins the election can do for people!

   This is the most important thing. If they only run for elections, fight or even squash for the sake of winning the election, they will lose the idea that they originally wanted to be in politics-for the people's livelihood!

   These remarks quickly increased Ms. Tracy’s approval rating ~lightnovelpub.net~ but there is still a way to go before Hicks' approval rating.

   Just when people thought that there would be no follow-up problems, in mid-to-late October, someone filmed Hicks going to the famous psychiatrist clinic in the capital alone and stayed for two hours before coming out.

   Later, the clinic staff broke the news that Mr. Hicks was suffering from severe depression, which had affected his work and life.

   This news is more exciting than the previous news, but people are more tolerant of his problems, because he did not make a mistake, but suffered from depression.

   In addition to the previous condemnation against him, part of the reason for his hard work over the years.

  The army and lawyers are all high-intensity jobs, and they always have to face many problems.

   Faced with the news this time, Hicks stood up bravely and admitted to the society that he was taking psychotropic drugs.

   He frankly said that he was under a lot of pressure when he was a lawyer. Sometimes he had to defend some criminals because that was his job.

   Behind every victory of the lawsuit, his soul was hit again and again, so serious that he began to doubt the value and purpose of self-existence!

   Now his mental condition has become more serious. He plans to withdraw from the election and will consider re-election after the depression problem is resolved.

   At the same time, he also said that he would quit his job as a lawyer and do something more pure.

  For example...Prosecutor!

   Of course, this is the future!
