Chapter 1912: Wu has his reasons

Jiang Yuanzheng still had evil intentions, so Lu Chengwen politely refused.

After dodging Jiang Yuanzheng, he quickly attacked Lu Chengwu.

"Lu Chengwu, I'm warning you, don't do anything rash! What gives you the right to manipulate the stock market and plunder an entire country's wealth? What's the difference between you and bandits?"

"Brother, stop it. Can bandits steal so much money?"

Lu Chengwen was stunned: "You! Now! Immediately! Right now! Withdraw!"

"I can't retreat. If I don't see this through to the end, they'll hunt me down to the ends of the earth!"

Lu Chengwen covered his forehead and said, "Those Americans are so smart, how could they be fooled by a fool like you? Don't you understand why you are the one being fooled!"

"Hahaha! The people I work with aren't business tycoons, they're all high-ranking officials."

"High-ranking official!?"

"Yeah! They're simple-minded. As long as you dare to speak up, have a strong background, are confident enough, and most importantly, promise them a lot of benefits, they'll work for you and call the shots for you."

"They're the smartest people out there! Their vision, knowledge, abilities... every aspect of their lives surpasses yours by a factor of eight hundred. If you try to play tricks on them, aren't you courting death?!"

"Come on! They're all idiots!"

Lu Chengwen was surprised and said, "How is that possible!"

"Alas, they are different from us Chinese. In our country, whoever is capable will take the lead, and whoever is awesome will be awesome."

"What about them?"

"Whoever's the most eye-catching gets on. It's like a talent show. Singing, dancing, and a meteorite on your chest won't help. A beautiful girl cries and says her mom has cancer, her dad was in a car accident, her grandma passed away, and her grandpa was sent to the palace to be a eunuch when he was young... but she's always had a dream of music. Everyone votes, and she's the winner!"

Lu Chengwen sat on the sofa. Qi Meishao handed him a glass of wine. Lu Chengwen took a sip and calmed down.

"No... they're electing president or governor or something. How can that be the same as a talent show?!"

"Hey! Might as well be a talent show."

"How to say?"

Lu Chengwen began to talk non-stop:

"Brother, you're good at picking up girls, right?"

"What is the problem?"

Lu Chengwu: "Their people are like a woman who isn't very smart but thinks she is! That's the vast majority of women!"

"Women used to look for partners who were honest, down-to-earth, motivated, polite, without bad habits, and steady and honest. This man might be in his formative years, with kindness as his foundation and a gentle and calm attitude towards the world as his source of strength. He'd take one step at a time. Perhaps in ten or twenty years, he'd become a pillar of society, living in a small villa with two cars and a dog, a house with a yard, a family who wouldn't cheat, a caring person who respected his parents-in-law, and a gentle parenting partner, raising his children to become journalists, doctors, or lawyers..."

Lu Chengwen scratched his head: "What the hell are you talking about!"

"But, for that woman, a man like that is boring! His abilities lie in his heart, his mind is full of ambition, and his ability to silently withstand the storm is not as good as a glamorous scumbag who can perform a little magic trick to make a girl's heart flutter, you know? Even when he's thinking about things, considering the future, projects, philosophy, life, if he gets distracted or performs poorly, the girl will conclude that he is a clumsy, stupid, boring, and a worthless loser."

"A talented person isn't necessarily interesting, rich, or handsome!"

"But scumbags are fun! They spend all day not focusing on serious matters, but on how to make girls happy! They'll ride their motorcycle and do a sudden skid in front of a girl, and she'll be controlled! They'll come over and pretend to perform a magic trick, turning a condom into a rose and then turning the rose back into a condom, and the girl will be overjoyed. They can unlock many positions that night! They always say what the woman wants to hear, and do things that make the girl feel warm, emotionally intelligent, and charming..."

"Honest people would rather be cheated to death by scumbags than be dumped and find another scumbag. There's no hope for honest people. There's never a hope! No matter how family-oriented, loyal, hardworking, or ambitious they are, it's useless."

"Because that woman's IQ can only get the low-level stimulation provided by the scumbag. They grew up watching stupid dramas and have been trained."

"Oh yeah, they call it emotional value! Hahaha! Man, isn't that crazy? A living human being has to give emotional value, and it has to be given 100% accurately! If someone like that were to run for president, what would she know?"

"That's how their decision-makers are chosen! As long as they have a pretty face, can coax them into saying what they want to hear, appear radiant and energetic, speak eloquently, and can feign a sincere expression of pleading for the people, then we're all set! Oh, and it would be best if they could also stir up emotions and give them enough emotional value!"

"The people they choose can't even understand basic financial statements when we have meetings. We have to explain it to them in a very idiotic way so that they can vaguely understand what it means. That's it! Or they think they understand! Then, they make decisions based on this vague, superficial, and sometimes completely wrong understanding!"

"Sometimes, the orders they gave us were so intense that we couldn't even move! Many times, I suspected they were joking, but... they looked so sincere."

"Brother, if they behave like this, and I don't lie to them, will they be struck by lightning?"

"I have to lie to others even if I don't lie to them!"

Lu Chengwen said gloomily, "Since you can talk to them, why don't you give them some effective and feasible suggestions and invest in some legitimate business?"

"Brother, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? Can a legitimate business make tens of millions of dollars a year? Is there violence in a legitimate business? If they're doing legitimate business, why do they still elect governors and presidents? The purpose of the election is to be dishonest!"

"Besides, they also have to be able to understand professional, efficient, and feasible suggestions!"

"They need emotional value, too. If I can't always say something that benefits them, then I won't be able to get in! In the eyes of foreign people, they are scumbags, and in their eyes, I have to be that scumbag!"

Lu Chengwen was extremely depressed: "I...you...if something happens to you, how will your parents live!"

"Nothing will happen. I've already figured out how to deal with the rest of the situation. It's just..."

At this time, Qi Meishao glanced at her phone and said, "My dear, Sister Shiyin is not feeling well again."

Lu Chengwen was startled and said quickly, "I won't talk to you anymore. I have something to take care of here. Don't mess around. Contact Huo Wenting first and help her do what she wants you to do. That's it for now. I won't say any more."

When Lu Chengwen arrived at Luo Shiyin's room, he was frightened.
