Not to mention how old Bush preached, Li Feng was also thinking about this encounter and thought it was really a coincidence, but it was good to see old George today. Li Feng believed in his previous intuition and old George was quite friendly.
What's the name of a saying? When business behavior reaches a certain behavior, it is absolutely inseparable from politics. Li Feng feels it deeply now, especially with the development of his career, he has felt it more and more clearly recently.
In the United States, political families have their own family political power and sphere of influence.
When it comes to the political power of the United States, we have to mention the political family. From the Adams family at the beginning of the founding of the country to the Roosevelt family, Kennedy family and Bush family, it can be called the four most powerful political families of the United States.
Members of Congress and senators directly controlled by the four families may be able to directly affect almost all the issues of the two houses. If you add what can be affected, it will be a huge force.
In fact, they are similar to the Chinese tradition. Through family marriage, they have closer ties with each other and firmly control the most powerful empire, the American emperor. These political families have great influence both in business and politics.
……
For example, the early Adams family was jokingly called the first Adams Dynasty of the United States. Today, although his reputation is not obvious, Li Feng has heard that several giants after Adams or family marriage have become members of both houses of Parliament.
Another example is the Kennedy family. It is said that the family includes marriage. Among the family members, there are as many as 2 or 30 members of the two houses of Parliament with direct contact such as light.
In the 1950s and 1960s, the family's assets exceeded hundreds of millions of dollars. The political power never stopped. The wealth must have increased sharply, but no one knows.
Roosevelt said nothing. At the beginning of the establishment of New York, most of the real estate from 22nd Street to 46th street in Manhattan and from 5th Avenue to Hudson River were the property of the Roosevelt family.
Roads, highways and buildings named after the Roosevelt family can be seen in many American metropolises, including the famous aircraft carrier Roosevelt in the U.S. Navy.
Since the 19th century, the Roosevelt family began to develop and made great achievements in finance and investment. In addition to managing their own family assets, the Roosevelt family also managed funds entrusted by others.
Roosevelt trust fund has a history of more than 100 years and has a large number of investments all over the world. The specific asset estimation is not clear to outsiders. After all, this trust fund does not need to be published, and it does not belong to the Roosevelt family legally. Look at the executors of the trust fund, all of whom are surnamed Roosevelt.
Naturally, some of the Roosevelt family members of each generation are members of both houses of Congress, and the family is a group of strong people. These talents really affect the direction of American imperial policy.
To know what the president of the United States wants to pass, both houses need to vote.
……
Finally, there is the Bush family. The first generation of the family is engaged in business, and then began to enter politics. However, the family has continued to win politically since Texas, which has led to continuous achievements in family business, including oil, military industry, finance, intelligence agencies and so on.
Although Li Feng has little contact with the Bush family, from the history of previous lives, in fact, the Bush family's policy towards China is better than that of other presidents, such as Clinton, Austria and Montenegro, C & P and so on.
For example, when George H. W. Bush came to power, US China relations were in the sweetest period. After zipper Dayton came to power, the relationship was actually not very good. It is conceivable whether the US imperial fleet haunted the tw Strait in the 1990s.
Of course, it may also have something to do with the special historical background at that time. After all, the former Soviet Union was the biggest enemy of the US emperor.
Later, in the United States, it was also said that the zipper Dun family was known as the "fifth largest political family" of the United States. Unfortunately, in Li Feng's opinion, the zipper Dun family was still a little worse. If his wife could come to power later, maybe it would be the fifth largest family.
But it's also obvious that the Clinton family has no successors. What's the use of a daughter? Look at several other families. They never lack successors and will not break down. This is the secret of their long-term survival.
Think about the surnames of Washington, Raphael, Franklin and so on when the United States was founded. Now there are still heard, not just because there are no descendants and some are girls, the result can be imagined.
It can be seen from here that if you want to keep the family prosperous, you still have to bring it.
……
Naturally, in addition to the four great powers, there are also a large number of powerful families such as Rockefeller and Morgan. Now these families actually have people in the economic field, or participate in the political field or marriage, and all hope to expand their power.
Even joked that in the early 20th century, if the Rockefeller family had today's power and influence, maybe the trust oil empire would not be dismembered. After all, Roosevelt still had to pass the bill if he wanted to dismember standard oil.
With the influence of the Rockefeller family and the alliance with those trust groups, it is absolutely possible to resist the counterattack of political forces in both houses.
In Li Feng's view, since then, family consortia including Rockefeller, Morgan, Meilong, DuPont and so on have been hidden. At the same time, family members have begun to exert influence in other industries in the United States, developing from economic, cultural and political aspects.
Of course, this thing has no if. After all, it has become history. Just like Wang Bo introduced himself to the relationship between the politics and consortia of the United States, this is both opposition and mutual promotion, that is, a balance.
Similarly, Li Feng also hopes that he can go to the top level in the future. At least he is still a little worse now. Therefore, Li Feng is willing to make friends with the Bush family.
……
When Li Feng returned to his temporary residence, the villa was already very lively. There were not only service personnel, but also a group of professional dressers.
This is specially prepared by Li Feng. If you want to go to a banquet in the evening, you should always tidy it up. Besides himself, Zhou Jiana also needs to dress up.
In fact, the little girl Zhou Jiana enjoyed Li Feng's arrangement very much. First, she ate something (this is Li Feng's habit. These so-called dinner parties, Li Feng always wanted to eat something first to save hunger). Then after taking a bath, she began to make people wear makeup, from the gifts and decorations she wore at night, Busy.
Zhou Jiana came suddenly this time, but he didn't bring any jewelry. Therefore, Li Feng had to ask Tiffany to send a set directly. Li Feng obediently filled in a check for $1.2 million.
Well, Zhou Jiana seems to have made a profit this time. Anyway, Li Feng got a kiss from the beauty and comforted Li Feng. It's worth it.
"What do you think, John?"
Wearing a black casual slimming suit and high-heeled shoes, Chanel No. 5 collection, more lasting fragrance, fresh, natural and pleasant, looking at the dress of a strong professional woman. At this time, the beauty jumped to Li Feng's side, showed it, and then asked with expectation.
"Of course, you must draw the attention of the whole audience tonight." Li Feng then replied with a smile.
"That's..." well, proud celebrities never know what modesty is.
……
"Honey, let's go." With that, Li Feng walked forward, stretched out his hand and invited.
Looking at Li Feng, who was tall, handsome and well-dressed, and invited himself with a smile on his face, Zhou Jiana couldn't help trembling in his heart. At this time, Li Feng was really prince charming.
Holding the beauty's soft waist, we got on the Lincoln limited custom car waiting. One front and one back, two security cars, and a small motorcade slowly headed for the White House.
Yes, the new year's dinner was held on December 31, the last day of 1996.
