Chapter 1875: another birthday

October 10th is another birthday.

Birthdays are very important days for most young people.

On the contrary, those old people don't like birthdays very much.

They will still insist on celebrating their birthdays for several reasons. Sometimes celebrating birthdays is not just celebrating birthdays.

Lynch's young body contained a mature soul. In fact, he didn't think much about his birthday in the past two years.

He has enough status, prestige, and strength, and he no longer needs to spread his influence by celebrating his birthday.

But some people really hope that he can celebrate his birthday, which also involves some other interests.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Penny walked down the stairs wearing a nice set of clothes.

Also fiddling with her earrings.

Today Lynch invited not many people from the political and business circles, the war, and the influx of foreign capital. Lynch didn’t have any particularly important matters that required them to come, and they hid as much as they could.

Of course, the gift still needs to be delivered, people don't have to come, it's because of something.

If people don't come and don't come with gifts, it's really rude.

So this year's invitation list was left to Penny to arrange. After a brief discussion with Lynch, she came up with a passable list of invitees.

On the list is the deadly "interview politician," a new category of politician that is rapidly emerging.

They are different from those politicians in the previous Federation. Many of these people have never held any power.

Whether it is within the party or outside the party.

But they are very good at self-advocacy and packaging. They will list some real and fake qualifications on the table, making people think that they are relatively well-known politicians.

Their job is to participate in various TV talk shows, talk shows, and participate in various political forums, social forums, wherever they can show their faces.

In this way, they can easily package themselves as "well-known politicians" and thus appear more in people's sights.

The media needs them too, and there are things that real, old-school politicians dare not say, but they dare say.

The people also need them, and they need them to interpret some policy changes for the people in some popular or even vulgar ways, so that they can at least understand what happened.

Such politicians are very likable and have a base of voters, but their purpose is not what they really want to do, but prestige and wealth.

Some of the best of these people were also invited, and then there were some big capitalists who had a cooperative relationship with Lynch, and several representatives of Lynch's laboratory scholars and experts.

Some news figures, some people in the entertainment circle, and the main members of the new crew.

To participate in a birthday party, you have to walk the red carpet, and there are very considerable media to follow the whole process.

Social attention, high exposure rate, this is almost becoming Penny's repertoire!

Every year, many newcomers want to make their debut through the birthday party they attend. This is not a joke, nor is it a joke, it is the truest portrayal!

The entire event venue was divided into two parts, one part was for guests invited by Lynch, and the other part was for guests invited by Penny, after Lynch's side greeted and chatted.

They will go to the other side together, trying not to neglect anyone.

From morning onwards, she oversees the setting up of the venue by those who specialize in party-related services.

The first time she did something like this, she didn't know how to do it.

Now, it becomes very simple.

After eating at noon, I took a short rest and took a nap. After three o'clock in the afternoon, the red carpet had already rolled out.

Reporters outside the manor crowded both sides of the red carpet, cameras, video cameras, microphones...

Awards night is not as lively as it is today!

Because not only reporters from entertainment media or special topics came here, but also a lot of reporters on finance, society, technology and other topics.

The first ones to arrive are often those with lower status, and they are all from the entertainment industry.

They are already thankful that they can come, and naturally they don't feel that they will be left out for a long time.

The higher a person stands, the more he understands the importance of gratitude.

It was after five o'clock that heavyweights began to appear.

Some glamorous politicians, big capitalists who have worked with Lynch, and representatives of the six major banks also appeared after six o'clock.

This directly set off a small climax!

You must know that these federal bankers rarely attend such relatively private but very public occasions.

Even if it is Mr. President's celebration ceremony or some kind of banquet, they will basically not attend.

Appearing together this time really shocked everyone.

Compared to the blankness of the entertainment reporters, the financial reporters generally knew the reason—billions of bad debts!

And this also reflects from the side how rich Lynch is!

At 6:55, the last distinguished guest arrived, the former chairman of the Federal Progressive Party Committee, the short old gentleman.

Lynch also walked out a certain distance appropriately. Although the old man had already left the core of political power, his political life did not end because of this.

This may be the first time in the past two years that the old man has appeared in such a high-profile way in front of the public, and there are more smiles on his face.

When a person reaches his stage, he actually hopes to stand under the spotlight. This is a completely different change from the past.

He waved his hands to everyone, and quickly walked through the red carpet. After shaking hands with Lynch at the end, he expressed a little emotion.

"It's been more than half a year, and I'm finally going to be on the front page again!"

It was a little self-deprecating humor, the way the Federals love it.

What he meant was that the eyes of people who had been watching him for more than half a year were diverted because he completely left that position.

But now because of Lynch, he has started to attract attention again. On the one hand, he laughs at himself for being neglected after losing power, and at the same time ridicules the shallow cognition of the outside world. Of course, he is still flattering Lynch more.

After all, it is because of Lynch that he has received people's attention again.

It seems that it is just a little humor, but it can reflect the different psychological and emotional changes of the elderly at different times!

Lynch also glanced at the old man's female companion with a smile, and said, "I hope they are not discussing your private life!"

The old man froze for a moment, then laughed loudly. He patted Lynch's arm, "You underestimate me!"

As the last guest present, the whole process of the red carpet was over.

The reporters outside started to pack their things, but some of them didn't intend to leave now.

They will go around and choose some places with good angles to take pictures of what happened in the manor.

In the first half of the year, the news that an entertainment newspaper reporter accidentally fell to his death because he climbed a tree to secretly take pictures was obviously a sad thing, but I don’t know why many people always feel happy after watching it.

The four (Lynch and his girlfriend and the old man and his girlfriend) walked inside, and the old man said, "I still want to thank you for that. He couldn't come for some reason, and let me tell him that I am also very grateful to you." .”

The old man was talking about Gladstone's affairs. Although Lynch seemed to be taking advantage of others' danger, there was nothing wrong with what he did.

This is one of the biggest characteristics of the federal society. In a utilitarian society, when the morality is not enough to form a tsunami, no one can be kidnapped.

In the campaign, Lynch would fall to whoever offered the highest price. This is normal and there is nothing to blame.

It's like at an auction, you can't not allow others to continue bidding just because you made a bid once, which is obviously unreasonable.

With a relatively "cheap" bargaining chip, Lynch took the lead in trading to them, which itself was a deal that both parties thought was appropriate.

The gratitude of the old man and Gladstone is not entirely because of this deal, but because Lynch made the first choice.

In fact, many people have difficulty choosing. When they make choices, they often stare at certain people.

In addition, I also need to thank the "York Gang" for supporting his work after Gladstone came to power.

After chatting with the old man for a while, Lynch left.

As the hostess of today's birthday party, Penny will entertain the female companions brought by others, which is also her main job.

Lynch went to the "York Gang".

The power of the York Gang in Congress has once again expanded with the addition of the governor. At present, five senators, including himself, and more than 20 congressmen have gathered around Senator Langdon.

Even in Congress, this is a force that cannot be ignored.

Seeing Lynch approaching, everyone stopped talking in time. Senator Langdon greeted him with a smile, shook hands with Lynch, and then introduced the newly joined Senator and Representative.

The short old man standing not far away watched everything that happened here calmly~lightnovelpub.net~ He actually paid close attention to Lynch. In ten years, he came from Sabine City with no background. Ordinary high school students.

He has developed to the point where even those in power at the top of the Federation must pay attention to him. His development speed is too fast, as fast as the media called him-"Miracle Boy!"

And he also believes that under the current situation, the power and strength of Lynch's group will only become more and more terrifying!

But he doesn't care much, he has already left that position, and he doesn't need to think about balancing the balance between factions in the party, nor does he need to think about the dirtiness among the MPs.

He's just an ordinary old man, it's time to enjoy his ordinary life.

With an admiration and reverence on his face, the young congressman bent down and shook Lynch's hand in a humble way.

The mature senator smiled reservedly, stared at Lynch while talking with him, and when Lynch looked at him, he lowered his head slightly at the right time to avoid Lynch's gaze.

People standing in the distance saw this scene, and the countless emotions in their hearts were intertwined, rolling and moving, and finally turned into a smile full of spring breeze!
