Vol 6 Chapter 268: Countermeasure

　　 The power of the Speaker of the House of Representatives can be roughly seen from the order of succession of the President of the United States.

The Speaker of the House of Representatives is the second heir after the Vice President of the United States (who also serves as the Speaker of the Senate).

This speaker, who officially took office five days before the iPhone conference that Feng Yiping followed, was the first female speaker of the United States for more than two hundred years.

This should also be the speaker of the House of Representatives who most opposed us in peacetime.

Because she is not a general objection to us, she is a resolute and extreme objection, in terms of trade, exchange rate, territorial integrity, etc., but she opposes all issues that involve us.

For example, she has voted against it for 10 consecutive years, opposing or advocating additional conditions to grant us MFN status.

For example, she once went to Tiananmen Square to sign with two other guys...

If Congress and the White House pass the China-related bills that she opposes, such as still granting us most-favored-nation trade treatment, she will use various methods to criticize Congress and the government on various occasions.

Women, especially older women like Grandma Pelosi, will be very skilled in their mouths. She should be more scolding than Jobs, and the people she scolds are also higher-level. The current President Bush Jr., more than once Of being scolded for having no temper, for example, "incompetent leader".

For example, "Actually, he is not a leader... He is a person who has no judgment, no experience, and no knowledge of what he wants to make decisions..."

And still, "His shallowness has not changed since he became president,"

The Republicans don’t want to see her like us, but they can’t do anything about her.

Because she is the most powerful person in Congress, and because of her leadership, the Democratic Party has become more united and more powerful.

Feng Yiping had no impression of this before, but he used to read a YY post on the Internet, saying that if he could be reborn after the 1940s, he would definitely find a way to treat this young and beautiful female speaker. And another female politician in the United States who is very unfriendly to us.

At first, he just thought it was funny. Now that he understands this story, he really raises his hands in agreement.

However, YY alone cannot solve the problem.

Originally, the two California senators on Capitol Hill should support him, because Feng Yiping has so many companies and so much influence in California.

It is also because Cummins contributed a lot in the two elections.

But because of this female speaker, because of his nationality, it's really hard to say now.

And if California members of Congress do not support him, the situation may be very passive.

"We can leave her alone, but we must win the support of the two California senators. Since your friendship with them may not work, then I will take care of this matter," Feng Yiping said.

"They..." Cummins thought for a while, "It's not that they don't support it, but that they are under great pressure."

"When I asked you to contribute, I never said such a thing," Feng Yiping waved his hand. "Although listening to them, I hope we can increase the bargaining chip."

"Yes, they should hope that we can increase our support for them," Cummins said.

"I don't want to accept such a temporary price increase. Don't you think it is blackmail?" Feng Yiping said.

"Perhaps, we can also find a way to rule this tough female speaker, because she is a California congressman and the head of the California Democratic Party. She can indeed have an adverse effect on us,"

"But, in turn, we are not unable to influence them,"

He thought for a while and nodded, "Well, this is actually a favorable condition!"

If this female speaker has nothing to do with California, for example, like O’Hare, is the representative of Illinois in the U.S. Congress, it is really not easy to handle.

"Others, meet their conditions, these two California senators, and the congressman who is the speaker, leave it to me," Feng Yiping said.

He quickly thought about the conditions he could use, and found that there were actually quite a few.

Even, it is possible that they don't have to shoot directly.

Cummins was shocked, that was the speaker! Treat her?

But looking at the boss’s confidence, he said wisely, “I hate politicians, and even more disgusting politicians who are biased for no reason.”

He followed him to another suggestion, "Feng, look, do you need Buchanan..."

Feng Yiping immediately shook his head, "No need!"

He understood what Cummins meant.

Little O'Hare, now a big red in the Democratic Party, is a very popular candidate for the presidential election, but after all, it is only 2007, and many things have not been settled yet.

Even if he let him go, Grandma Pelosi might not save face, on the contrary, it might cause trouble to them.

Cummins also said immediately, "Okay, I understand."

Feng Yiping nodded, "So, what about the others?"

"The White House Council of Economic Advisers will not be a problem," Cummins said. "We have obtained their clear support."

"Very good!" Feng Yiping nodded.

Cummins then reported, "Foreign Investment Committee, the office is in the Ministry of Finance, which is the chairman unit of this committee, so..."

"That is, the results of my meeting with Paulson tomorrow will affect the attitude of this committee," Feng Yiping said.

"It's true," Cummins said, "and..."

The two of them sat in the living room and talked all the time. During the period, Vincent once went downstairs and saw that he was still busy, and followed Ma Ling back upstairs faintly.

Later, he put on his jacket again, and when he went out with his mother, he saw his father still talking about work, and he didn't even pay attention to him. It was a little unhappy.

When I came back from the supermarket with my mother, he saw that there was one less car in front of the door, so he ran into the house impatiently, "Dad,"

But what about people? The living room was empty, "Mom, where's Dad, has Dad gone?"

"No," Ma Ling put down his things and went upstairs. In Vincent's disappointed eyes, he opened the back door, "Look,"

Vincent saw that his father was walking around in the yard holding his hands. Sometimes, he would stop and look across the river as if in a daze.

"Dad..." Ma Ling covered his mouth, "Dad is thinking about problems,"

But at this time Feng Yiping had heard their movement and waved to him, "Son,"

"Dad, my mother and I bought a lot of vegetables, but I hope I can eat your dishes in the evening,"

"Haha, no problem, dad must cook the braised pork that you like to eat. Look, do you know where the other side of the river is? That's another state."

Ma Ling leaned on Feng Yiping, "Is it all right,"

"It's okay," Feng Yiping said, "but I have to make a phone call,"

…………

In Los Angeles, Musk is still staying in the SpaceX workshop. Compared to Tesla's progress, his side has always been in trouble and many failures.

Because of this, he really hopes that SpaceX can also produce results as soon as possible.

Feng Yiping always had a lot of pressure because he always dealt with Jobs, Page, Brin, Musk, Bezos..., in fact, he didn't know that he also brought them pressure.

Musk felt Feng Yiping put a lot of pressure on himself.

Feng Yiping is not a scientist, not even an assistant engineer, but he can always come up with some good ideas that not only make everyone's eyes shine, but also can be implemented.

Musk, who knew he was a genius, felt that there was only one word to describe Feng Yiping, and that was "the genius among geniuses."

Nevertheless, or because of this, he hopes that SpaceX can make progress as soon as possible, because he does not want to be disadvantaged in front of Feng Yiping.

At the same time, when he founded the company, he let go of all the big things. If there is no effective progress, then he has boasted how big Haikou he was, and he will make many jokes in the future.

He was meditating on a pair of drawings with a few engineers. The phone rang. He frowned and looked at the people around him very uncomfortably. Finally, in everyone's eyes, he realized that it was his phone.

He took out his mobile phone a little annoyed, his expression relaxed a lot when he saw the phone, "Feng,"

"That's it, Musk..." Feng Yiping told him a chase.

Musk nodded, "Okay, I understand."

Georgetown, at night.

Ma Ling walked into the bedroom, Feng Yiping took the computer on his lap, "Did you sleep well?"

"Sleep very soundly," Ma Ling said. "Think about how happy he is today."

The little guy is really happy today.

"But you really shouldn't let you cook," Ma Ling said. "I can't help but eat so much at night."

"Haha," Feng Yiping hugged her, "what does it matter? Look at this figure, how great!"

"Really? Hehe," Ma Ling embarrassedly got into Feng Yiping's arms and smiled, before Feng Yiping was about to do something ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ she raised her head and said suddenly, "Ping, you said , Should I also try to go to the White House to be an intern, or be friends with some classmates in school?"

"Don't," Feng Yiping said immediately. "Something happened when Lewinsky was an intern in the White House. I don't worry about letting you go there."

"but……"

"It's nothing," Feng Yiping said immediately.

The reason why Ma Ling said that is because Georgetown University is the cradle of famous politicians and also known as the politician's paradise.

Many students there were originally the children of politicians, including the children of foreign envoys, and many more students would choose to join the political circle after graduation. It can be said that if you manage well during the school period, you can really run a good network. Come.

But how could Feng Yiping want Ma Ling to do such a thing?

Originally, Ma Ling didn't like politics. Otherwise, she would not go to the School of Business, but to the School of International Relations.

"Our relationship in politics is better than you think. Just think about other questions. For example, are you interested in donating a villa to the university overseas like Rockefeller's granddaughter?"

"This," Ma Ling thought immediately.

Feng Yiping turned over, "You can think slowly,"

"Ah, what do you think..."

The night is getting deeper.
