"Do you like George W. Bush?" Claude looked surprised. The U.S. general election is divided into two stages. The first round of voting is held on the first Tuesday of November. Voters in each state will elect the voters who represent the state. Then on the third Monday of December, state voters will go to the state capital to vote for the new president of the United States. Generally speaking, if a candidate can get more than half of the popular votes in a certain state - when voters recommend electors, they also vote for the presidential candidates they support - all electoral votes in that state will belong to him, even if half of the voters in that state do not support him. []

this is called winner take all. Except for Maine and Nebraska, the other four states and Washington, D.C. do the same. After 12 months of the general election, Al Gore is surprised that most of the people are not optimistic about Al Gore after the 12 month election.

"You know, I don't know a lot of things very well," Adrian spread out. "But that's why I can often look at things from a different perspective and see things that no one else can see - tell me, dear crow, how much campaign money has Gore and George W. Bush raised each? Or tell me directly, which raised more money? "

"It should be George W. Bush." Claude gave the answer after a little recollection.

"I don't know if you've noticed, crow, since the late '70s, Jimmy? At the beginning of Carter, the presidential campaign has become a model in which whoever spends more can win Adrian said seriously.

"Oh?" Claude picked his eyebrows.

"Carter, Reagan, senior Bush and Clinton are all like this. Although there are only four people, they are enough to illustrate some problems." After that, of course, Franklin can look back on history, except for a coincidence? Except Roosevelt, the Democratic Party has never been in power for 12 consecutive years, but it has appeared more than once in the Republican Party. "

"Clinton has been in power for two consecutive terms, so the chances of Gore of the Democratic Party wanting to be elected are very slim. That's what you mean, right?" Claude asked.

Adrian raised his hands: "Gore's popularity among ordinary people is indeed higher than that of George W. Bush, but it is never the voters who decide who can take the presidency. Bush Sr. served as a congressman, director general and President of the United States. We also discussed before that if the red Empire disintegrated two to three months ahead of schedule, it would be very difficult for Clinton to defeat him. The political capital and contacts that senior Bush has accumulated are enough to push his son to the presidency. That's why I suggest that you send a personal representative to contact him instead of Bush, who is running for the election

"It seems a little late now?" Claude frowned. "It's less than a month from election day. Even if we turn to them, it won't make much difference, let alone support the Democratic Party."

"Come on, crow, can't you do that?" Adrian couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Yes, traditionally, the rondries have been Democratic supporters - Uncle Anderson is Republican, he's conservative. However, it is a common practice for major groups to place bets on both sides. It is just like this year's general election, whether Gore's team or his team, the media have made a lot of contributions.

"OK," Claude laughed. "In short, George W. Bush only needs more than half of the electoral votes. From the first Tuesday in November to the third Monday in December, there will be at least a month, so anything can happen - I will arrange it, but some things will take some time."

"Don't worry, the limit on political contributions may be lifted in ten years." Adrian, who knew what he was talking about, replied with a smile.

Although the U.S. law stipulates that the campaign team should accept a certain amount of political contributions from a certain person or company, it is easy to get around this restriction, which is nothing more than the establishment of several more funds. Since the laws have become empty, it is no wonder that the limit on political contributions was abolished ten years later.

This result was not unexpected to Adrian. Claude was very stable, but he also liked to do some challenging things. So he helped him rob Japan and rob the black Empire, so he set up the media under his persuasion, so he would try his best to buy T

acquisition

and so on. However, the achievements are also huge. The word "young and promising" is now tailor-made for him. How many people can take charge of a large group with assets of 500 million or 600 million in their early 30s? What's more, he and his diehards fought together for this group.

Therefore, as long as he can successfully acquire

nd, Claude doesn't mind taking a gamble and wins a lot. Although it's better to invest in senators than in presidents, there are times when investing in presidents can make a lot of money, like now. As long as George W. Bush can wait for the presidency of the United States and with the cooperation of MacDonald and others, he should be able to handle this matter in a short time. If the old fox returns to the old fox, he still has to do something after taking the money. American politicians are relatively trustworthy in this respect.What's more, the media is not without backhand. It is not difficult to guess the plans of other media groups. If the anti-monopoly agency intervenes and bans the transaction in the name of suspected monopoly after adjusting the difference, it is of course the best, but it doesn't matter if it can't be banned. Since they can use their relationship in government departments, the media can also use it, and they have their own ideas.

If it can't be banned, then it will be delayed. The informal period of F review can be up to 10 days, and the formal period will not be too much less. If it is delayed for one year, the capital required for the acquisition of

nd will be greatly increased. The media tycoons who want to block them can't see the prospect of

nd, but they can't or won't buy it for such reasons. If the time is a little longer,

nd's performance will soar. By then, only 10 billion yuan could be purchased a year ago, and 20 billion or even 30 billion yuan would be spent a year later. Besides, there is kangka Stuart competed to raise prices.

Their plans can't be said to be bad. Generally speaking, if they really delay for such a long time, they may fail. However, if there are omissions in key information, no matter how they calculate, there will be no result. At that point, the media may not have enough funds, but Adrian and Claude have a lot of them, and Adrian has already decided that it doesn't matter if all of them are put into it at that time.

As a saying goes in previous life, in the face of absolute strength, any strategy is useless. Without government intervention, it is the amount of enterprise capital that decides the acquisition. Even so, if the final result is really like this, it is inevitable that the gains and losses will not be worth the losses, so it is necessary to invest in George W. Bush.

So it was decided. As before, Adrian made up his mind and Claude carried out the operation. So Adrian could do what he could, for example, accompany Jessica to the cinema to watch the last dance.

As a kind of song and dance film, it is already a minority in the current film market. Although song and dance film is an indispensable film type in Hollywood, there is hardly a memorable song and dance film in the whole 1990s? Ellen's on this side.

So "keep the last dance" didn't have a premiere, and of course, the publicity was pretty good - Adrian took Jessica in disguise and went to the cinema to watch it in the crowd.

This is actually the second time that Jessica has seen her first starring film. The first time she went to see it with her family on the day of the movie. After all, she hasn't been home for a long time. Fortunately, her figure has recovered, so that her parents can't see the flaw. Even if her mother has doubts, she has put on some weight to excuse her pregnancy in the dark angel of the last days.

Adrian did not stop her body building exercise immediately after childbirth. Anyway, Jessica is still very young, and she has a low self-esteem when she was a child. She still has a strong sense of her appearance and figure. She can understand that as long as Mary can enjoy the most basic breast-feeding.

There were not many people sitting in the screening hall, and most of them were young people. They all seemed to be very interested in the film. It's no surprise that this is the second week of the release of "keep the last dance". Because it's in the off-season, it has won nearly 2000 theaters. In the first week, it won 25 million box office in North America, and many people have given them a lot of praise.

"It's full of youthful energy and inspiring power." One critic wrote in a column in the Chicago Tribune.

In the past, most of the films were luxurious and danced by young people, but most of them were young people. "Keep the last dance" first combines inspirational and love in the story, and then combines ballet and blues in the dance, so it has become such a distinctive youth song and dance film.

"Look, you're charming, aren't you?" Looking at the big screen, Adrian blows vaguely in Jessica's ear.

Although Jessica did not speak, there was still a smile on her mouth. Obviously, her family and friends had praised her before. Although Jessica's acting skills are relatively weak, but through those simple or gorgeous dance is very attractive, we have to say that the choreography is very beautiful.

One of the biggest attractions of song and dance movies is the well choreographed dances. As for "keep the last dance", the plot of the film is still relatively conventional and simple. The main character of the dance is to get to know her father, and then she has to move out together.

If there is no dance, this is at best a very popular love movie, but with dance it is not the same. The choreographer has put a lot of effort into this aspect, combining blues and ballet as much as possible, and using different styles of dance to show the differences in skin color and identity between the two. There is no doubt that no matter what position ballet used to be and how much time it took to evolve to the present stage, it does represent elegant art. Blues, which has been popular among black people for decades, has been called vulgar or even gaudy by many people. It happens to be very similar to the identity of the hero and heroine.For example, the meeting of the heroine was just like ballet and blues, but it attracted each other in essence. After mutual contact, the choreographer arranged the blues and blues for the first time. Of course, bumps and bumps are inevitable. With the warming up of the feelings of the male and female protagonists, the integration of the two dances is very smooth, and with the exchange of dance experience, the feelings of the male and female protagonists continue to heat up, until all kinds of difficulties begin to come.

To the back, the two have to separate, and the integration of dance is also stagnant. The heroine can't concentrate on practice, and the hero can't face himself. Until the end, the hero finally determined to break with the previous life, and then to find his lover, she is now in a theater ready to perform in the dance academy teacher. Without the hero around, the heroine tried hard to practice the dance created together, but her first performance still had a lot of problems.

"Are you really ready?" Asked a male teacher with glasses and a ponytail and a beard.

The heroine took several deep breaths and was unable to answer, until the hero's voice came from the door: "yes, she's ready."

As I said before, the plot is very conventional. Next is a scene that can be seen in all love and inspirational movies. The hero rushes to the stage to encourage his lover: you can do it, you can do it. The heroine finally performed perfectly. Here, the director and choreographer arranged very well. Although there are ballet or blues dances in the whole movie from time to time, and they all dance very well and feel very well. There are also dances that integrate ballet and blues, which also have a bright spot, but the whole dance is not completely displayed until the end of the movie.

In the fast cutting, the heroine fully shows the dance with her body, which has the elegance of ballet and the rhythm of blues. It is perfectly integrated in everything, switching without barrier. Sometimes it is soft and sexy. It is so passionate and full of vitality that the old teachers can't help starting with the rhythm. The whole movie was paved for just a few minutes. The emotion accumulated in the whole movie was completely released at this moment. When the dance was over, the young people in the screening hall couldn't help cheering and clapping.

"Perfect." Adrian couldn't help clapping.

Jessica, who was sitting next to him, though she had heard this praise many times, still couldn't help but sigh at what she thought as she walked out of the movie.

"What's the matter?" Adrian asked curiously.

"Nothing, just..." Jessica pursed her lower lip. "If only I had done it all."

Adrian couldn't help laughing, reaching out and scraping her nose: "don't think so much. After all, you're not a professional dancer. It's pretty good to be able to train like that in a short time."

As I said before, ballet is different from those ordinary dances. As long as the actors are given enough time to practice, most of the movements can be infinitely close to professionals. For example, Adrian's film for Nicole is one of the reasons why he asked Nicole to practice dancing more. But ballet is different. Most ballet dancers start from a young age and have strict requirements on body shape. Therefore, they should start shaping when their bones are not fully developed. It is OK for adults to practice ballet and play, but it is almost impossible to be a very professional stage performance.

The ballet company is also the most competitive place in the entertainment industry, even surpassing the model circle. Many ballet dancers are very good dancers all their lives. After six months to one year of practice, they can really dance as well as professional ballet dancers. This situation is impossible. Therefore, all films related to ballet, unless the actors are young or they are dancing, are dancing Lei dance, most of the dance is for dance, no exception.

Even though ballet is not involved in much in "keep the last dance," Jessica still uses a lot of doubles, especially in the last excellent dance. Therefore, whenever there is a positive lens of Jessica's rotation on the movie screen, she will not take pictures of her feet, but when she has her whole body rotated, she will be very fast, unable to see her face clearly, and she will switch to a close-up of her half body soon.

"Will you wait for me here?" Outside, Adrian patted Jessica on the arm, then went to drive, but when he came back, he saw a very unexpected scene.

The fans who are still outside the cinema are drawing closer to Jessica. Those at the front are rushing to her in a wave. They are looking for something to sign. Jessica, whose hat has been removed, smiles bitterly but can't refuse. Needless to say, she was recognized by her fans when she was waiting. The fans who just saw her starring in the film and enjoyed it were of course embraced.

Adrian shook his head with a smile, pulled down his hat, turned the car to the cinema with the steering wheel, leaned his head out of the window and cried, "Jessica! Here it is

Jessica looked around. She ran over, opened the door and jumped. As the car blew up the gas, she didn't forget to say sorry to the fans

"It's very popular." After driving the car into the street, Adrian joked.www.novelhold.com , the fastest update of the webnovel!
