Chapter 3580 Ruining My Plans
Avril has always been a passionate person, a straight-forward person who can't tolerate a grain of sand in her eyes. Avril was furious when the US government treated Lin Feng like this this time. To her, this was the US government bullying. Lin Feng reported **, so he should be protected by the US government. As a result, the US government not only did not protect him, but also leaked his identity, putting Lin Feng in danger of retaliation by al-Qaeda. How could Avril not be angry!
This time, they directly blocked Lin Feng's communications, preventing them from contacting Lin Feng. Such despicable behavior is naturally to be despised and scolded. Now that she can't see Lin Feng, she will use the influence of herself and others to help Lin Feng.
'Second Entertainment' has always signed singers and film and television stars with the most preferential treatment. Whether you are famous or not, 'Second Entertainment' treats you equally, and the terms of the contract are the same, so it is very loved by many stars. This time, Avril raised her arms and shouted, and immediately received responses from many stars. Compared with the last time when only the stars within the company responded, this time almost all Hollywood stars responded to Avril's call and began to take to the streets to call on California citizens to vote and vote for Lin Feng. . .
The influence of Avril and others is extremely great. In a short period of time, within no more than 3 hours, the number of voters exceeded one million. Moreover, the number of people is still increasing. At 12 o'clock in the evening, there are still 24 hours left before the voting deadline announced by the California Supreme Court, and the number of people who voted in favor has exceeded 5 million. This number makes Bush extremely shocked.
However, there are only 24 hours left, and President Bush does not believe that Lin Feng can still turn the world upside down at this time. The total number of votes requires 19.18 million, and now there are only 5 million, which is 14.18 million short. This number is enough to make people despair. Bush believes that in the end Lin Feng will definitely not reach the required number of votes.
He will definitely not be able to do it! Bush sneered in his heart.
"Mr. President, don't worry. I have contacted all the congressmen in major cities in California. They will mobilize the people around them to vote for you." Rice also called to report the good news.
Bush's tired eyes finally showed a relieved smile. So. Then Lin Feng must have no budget.
"Rice. I haven't slept for two days. I'm going to rest. If there is anything, call me immediately." Bush said tiredly.
"President, go to bed quickly. I'm here. I'll notify you immediately if there is anything." Rice said in a low voice.
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Rice!" Bush hung up the phone. Turned around and fell asleep on the sofa in the study. At this moment, Rice's eyes were also red and her face was tired. In the past two days, she has traveled to more than a dozen cities and felt like vomiting on the plane, let alone sleeping.
She only ate the simplest hamburger. At this moment, she was already exhausted physically and mentally, but at this time, Rice had no complaints. She hoped Bush could have a good rest.
The appeal of Avril and others is limited after all. The influence of celebrities is also the same. In the United States, although there will be many crazy fans, the number of these super fans will be limited. Especially when it comes to politics, Americans are very opinionated. It often happens that in a family, there are Republicans. There are also Mín zhǔ party members. Even between husband and wife, the political views are different. Of course. This will not affect the feelings between the two parties. Political disagreements are political disagreements, and husband and wife feelings are husband and wife feelings. This is completely different and cannot be confused.
"What should I do? Now there are only 7 million people voting, which is 12.18 million people short!" Lin Chiling looked worried. The number difference is too big. There are only 24 hours left, and I am afraid that so many voters can't be called to vote.
"Well, let's continue. Take a rest tonight, and go out tomorrow morning to call again, hoping to call more people to vote!" Although Avril also felt desperate, she would never give up. She would never give up until the last moment. And she believed that Ron should have a way.
The vote count did not fluctuate much overnight. When Bush woke up the next day, the vote count had just exceeded 8 million. There were still 18 hours left, but there was still a shortfall of 11.13 million votes. This number made Bush very satisfied.
"Rice, it seems that we have won this time. This does not only mean that I don't have to appear in the California court, but more importantly, we finally defeated Lin Feng this time." Bush smiled.
Rice also nodded. After fighting with Lin Feng, she found that Lin Feng was difficult to deal with. This guy has too many connections. In the United States, he doesn't have friends everywhere, but in California, it is almost the case. This made them feel helpless. Fortunately, Lin Feng is not an American, but a Chinese. Many California legislators are not very interested in Lin Feng. Otherwise, I am afraid that no legislator will stand on their side this time.
Lin Feng, what other means do you have now? Rice stood in the suburbs of Los Angeles, looking at the "Windy City" under construction in the distance, with a solemn face. When she came to California this time, she also took the time to come here to see the progress of the "Windy City". Although I have read many reports and seen related pictures about the "Windy City" before, it was only when I saw it with my own eyes that I could understand the grandeur of the "Windy City".
Damn, this ‘Windy City’ is so big, almost the same size as Los Angeles! Rice exclaimed. This ‘Windy City’ is too big. She never thought that Lin Feng would have such a big appetite and build a city as big as Los Angeles. You know, Los Angeles is one of the top five super cities in the United States. But Lin Feng built a super city with just a few gestures. This handwriting and this spirit are really shocking. I admire it.
But Lin Feng, you have such a big appetite, can you really swallow it? Rice's mind is full of strategies. Thinking about how to get the greatest benefits for the president. Attacking Lin Feng is only one of the purposes, to vent anger, and to strike down Lin Feng's arrogance in the United States. But this is by no means the ultimate goal. The real purpose, Bush said, is to hope that Lin Feng can be used by him. So how can he be used by him?
Bush's absence from this trial is Bush's first victory, but it is not enough to make Lin Feng compromise. The threat of the ‘Al-Qaeda’ organization is a factor that is enough to make Lin Feng compromise. But this is not safe. In Rice's view, this is not enough to make Lin Feng bow to Bush and let Lin Feng be used by Bush. This big project may also be one of the helpers.
While Rice was thinking, California Governor Schwarzenegger was in a dilemma. Lin Feng's representative lawyer, Ron, had already found him. He hoped that Schwarzenegger would stand up and call on California citizens to vote. Today, Schwarzenegger's approval rating in California is very high, as high as 68%, which is the basis for Schwarzenegger to seek re-election. But Schwarzenegger is worried that if he directly stands up and calls on California citizens to vote for Lin Feng, it will become a Waterloo in his political career. What if California citizens do not support Lin Feng? Then his open support for Lin Feng and calling on California citizens to vote will cause his approval rating to drop sharply. And now, Schwarzenegger's political campaign funds are not abundant.
Schwarzenegger has calculated that if he wants to seek re-election, then his campaign funds for this political election must be at least more than 25 million US dollars! Schwarzenegger does have this money. He has been a movie star and a superstar for so many years, and his assets are still quite abundant. But in the last election, he spent nearly 30 million US dollars on the campaign. In the past few years, he has never received any salary of the governor of California (175,000 US dollars), and the private plane he took for travel was all paid for by himself. If he pays for it again this time, he is likely to cause his personal assets to shrink significantly. And if he fails to be re-elected in the end, his family will suddenly fall into trouble.
Of course, even if he is re-elected, Schwarzenegger cannot make money and profit for himself by relying on the governor of California during the re-election process. Then, what should he do in four years? You can't let the whole family go to the northwest wind for his campaign for the governor of California! This is the United States, not China. As an official, in addition to seeking benefits for the people and showing life ambitions, it is impossible to seek any personal gain.
Therefore, Schwarzenegger needs to seek financial assistance. According to US law, he cannot accept Lin Feng's financial assistance. At the same time, he could not accept any single rich man's financial assistance of more than $1,000. His political funds were raised by holding various banquets. He was worried that this time he would raise his arms and call for help, but it would backfire, which would be terrible.
"Governor, your problem is definitely not a problem. I believe Mr. Lin will definitely have a way. And now he needs your help. Bush government is calculating Mr. Lin like this, he must let Bush stand in court. So, he needs your help!" Ron tried his best to persuade Schwarzenegger. From yesterday to today, Schwarzenegger has hesitated for a long time, but has not been able to make up his mind.
"Still can't contact Lin Feng?" Schwarzenegger asked.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin has been blocked and can't be contacted. And I checked the relevant laws, we have no right to lift the blockade of Lin Feng." Ron said helplessly.
"But" Schwarzenegger hesitated and couldn't contact Lin Feng, which made him feel uncertain. He didn't dare to make such a desperate decision rashly.
Ron was helpless. He also understood Schwarzenegger's concerns. This is a superstar with great ambitions. Therefore, at this critical moment, he dared not make such a desperate decision.
So, Ron could only wait.
At this time, Lin Feng was getting a little impatient. Because, after being blocked for 2 days, Lin Feng suddenly realized that he had missed a very important thing to fight against al-Qaeda. Without his order, the information from all parties could not be conveyed, and Wang Meng and others would not launch an attack.
Damn it, Bush, are you going to ruin my big plan! (To be continued...)
