The eldest prince had not formed a political party with a sound system before. People like Maggs did not say so, but in fact they were still keeping an eye on the eldest prince.
It seems that he is secretly managing some industries that originally belonged to the royal family but have now been divested, and he controls several politicians to work for him, but in fact everyone is still very wary of the royal family.
Back then, they took advantage of the impending war to push the royal family from the throne of ruler. Regardless of whether this was for the good of the empire, their actions had seriously damaged the interests of all members of the royal family.
Since there may have been deep hatred between each other, don't think about resolving it, because this kind of hatred cannot be resolved.
This is not about someone who owes you a few dollars and hasn't paid it back for a long time, nor is it about someone who punched you but you didn't dare to say anything. This kind of hatred multiplies infinitely, and will accumulate more and more, and will eventually reach It's so nerve-wracking.
The inexperienced eldest prince now wanted to ensure that the power in his hands would not be lost to his younger brother, so he announced the formation of a political party. However, forming a political party that had not existed before from scratch was not as simple as just talking.
How many organizational structures are there, how many organizational members are there, how to allocate them, who will be the management, who will be the executive, what is the charter, what is the political program, what is the slogan, what is the route, how to start working, how to be effective Get the job done… .
All of this is something that the eldest prince doesn't understand at all, which is the main reason why he poaches people everywhere. He can't do it himself, so he won't force himself to do it.
Almost successful people know how to use other people's intelligence to serve themselves, and His Highness the First Prince is not lacking in this aspect.
A large number of bottom layers and a small number of middle layers can put up the frame. As for the superstructure, the process of forming a political party is not particularly urgent, but can be done a little slower.
Du Lin happens to be a middle-level and high-level member of the new party, and he is also the governor of Ambiro State. His Royal Highness the eldest prince asked him all the troubles he was currently encountering without any hesitation.
Some of these questions Dulin couldn't answer, or were difficult to answer, but some were not that difficult and did not involve anything that needed to be avoided.
The two chatted lively and clinked glasses from time to time. After about twenty minutes passed, the eldest prince suddenly sighed. He looked to be in his forties or fifties at this time. His specific age Du Lin has not yet understood.
His temples were slightly gray, but it did not detract from his temperament and personal charm. After a long sigh, he looked at Du Lin with an indescribable and scary look in his eyes, "Mr. Du Lin, regarding your knowledge and ability, I I have once again felt personally that the Baath Party thing has been bothering me, and I very much hope that an outstanding person like you can be by my side to give me some advice and help.”
The meaning of this sentence basically showed the eldest prince's attitude towards Du Lin's recruitment at this time, and he made it clear.
In fact, sometimes it's like this. Others offer good food and drink, but don't say anything, which makes people feel unsure. The eldest prince supported and expressed his attitude, and Du Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
He smiled and glanced at the wine glass on the table, paused for three, five, six, seven or eight seconds, and then looked up at the eldest prince with a slight smile on his face, "I am a member of the new party. Your Highness, you have drunk too much." !”
"Drink too much?", the eldest prince laughed. His impression of Du Lin until now was actually good. Not to mention objective factors such as the different positions of the two parties, he looked at the eldest prince from the perspective of their first meeting. This person gives people a good impression.
Enthusiastic, charming, and able to liven up the atmosphere very well, and he may be able to open his mouth and ask questions that others may not be willing to ask. The more questions, the stupider the person will tend to be, if not Why are you so stupid that you don’t understand anything and you have to ask questions about everything
He is a man who looks very forthright. He says what he says without hiding it. In addition, his temperament makes it difficult for people to dislike him. Du Lin still has a good impression of him.
He looked at Du Lin, and Du Lin also looked at him. The two looked at each other for a moment. The eldest prince laughed, picked up the wine bottle and poured some more wine. While pouring, he said, "I really need someone like you to help me. Please forgive me for drinking a little too much now, and my brain may not be so sharp. If I offend you, I apologize for this..." He held the bottle of wine in his hand. Put it down and looked at Du Lin again, "Make a price. Just come over and make a price."
"There are only a few things that people live in this world, wealth, power, personal physical pursuits and psychological pursuits. As long as I can do it, you also need it..." He picked up the wine glass and raised it to Du Lin. He said, "Make a price!" After saying that, he raised his head and drank all the wine in the glass.
After he finished drinking, he pressed the wine glass on the coffee table with a bang, and stood up unsteadily, looking a little drunk. He patted Du Lin's arm, his eyes already a little drunk, "I need to take a rest, you Think about it, my sincerity... I will definitely let you see it, I'm sorry, I'll excuse you for now."
With the support of two waitresses, His Royal Highness the eldest prince staggered into a suite farther away, while Du Lin was thinking about what he had just said.
This is a very powerful character. What’s great about him is that he says everything that should be said and shouldn’t be said. He can also make people not angry with him or think there is something wrong with him. At the same time, he can also give people a sense of well-being. A genuine feeling.
It was a very contradictory experience, but it had a real existence. He glanced at the other guests and realized that the next wooing would be carried out by these people. He was curious about what kind of price the eldest prince had offered him. He chose betrayal.
He didn't want to betray anyone, he simply wanted to know how much he was worth.
Everyone in this society has a price that they cannot see, especially when they are humble. This price is set entirely by others after their own performance has gained social recognition.
Only after reaching a certain level can you have the power to set your own price. Such people are very few, very rare.
Du Lin has reached this level, but this does not prevent him from still wanting to see how much others offer him. This is a very interesting thing.
The first person who came up to talk to Dulin was Saul, an active social activist with a heroic name but not a hero. Recently, some voices in this group have used their past names, which will make them look particularly interesting. Grade - "Public intellectuals with social responsibility" and "Public figures with good moral standards". They combined these two titles and called themselves public consciousness.
Yes, common sense.
Sol behaves relatively humbly and humblely. According to everyone's normal thinking and logic, he has the lowest status among this group of people.
He does not have an aristocratic background, nor is he a board director of a large enterprise or group company. He is not a famous founder of the feminist movement or a well-known media person, nor is he a very influential barrister in society. Therefore, his identity is The most "humble" here.
However, he himself does not think so. As an active social activist, he has successfully held many personal speeches, and each time the venue was overcrowded.
Many people from other places even traveled long distances to listen to his speeches. Now he is no longer as simple as a person or a name. His influence is constantly radiating out at a terrifying speed.
Some people have not realized the importance of the bottom class to society. Maybe they have realized it, but they are unwilling to pay attention to it. It is like walking on the road and encountering a larger ant nest. They may step on it. , but more likely to be bypassed.
Some existences that are not important to them or even have no sense of value will not affect their lives, but Saul knows that when these people at the bottom of society who have little value and influence unite together, he will be infused with a sense of power. A power that no one else had imagined, a power that was omnipotent.
But now, he still needs to hibernate and "practice".
Joining the Imperial Party was his choice, and it was also the choice of the eldest prince. Sol can directly affect more than 100,000 people. Maybe this number is not as strong as some entrepreneurs - they can decide the jobs of 100,000 or more workers. This is more terrifying and effective than Thor's.
But the family members of these 100,000 people, including their relatives and friends, are also a terrifying number. And as he enters the middle level of the Imperial Party, he will have more opportunities to "show his face" and get more for himself. Better impression points to gain more supporters.
He bent slightly at first. This had nothing to do with inferiority. It was purely Thor's respect for Dulin. After all, he was the governor.
"Mr. Dulin, I just heard the chat between you and His Highness. Please forgive me for being presumptuous. Can I ask, what is interfering with your choice?" He smiled very sincerely, but he couldn't imitate it. The prince's enthusiasm and sincerity radiated from his bones, although the guy's true self was not what he appeared to be.
Thor is too deliberate. Whether it is his expression or the way he speaks, everything is very good. He may admire the eldest prince very much or for some other reason. It can be seen that he is imitating the eldest prince.
Du Lin looked at him. He lowered his head two seconds after meeting Du Lin's gaze. Du Lin picked up the wine glass on the table, shook his head, and took a sip, "I already said, I am from the New Party. People have not considered changing their camp for the time being.”
Thor smiled cheerfully and nodded, "I understand your concerns. You are the successor of Lord Mags and his niece-in-law. People say that you are the next generation of the Timamont family. Representative figures, they have given you a lot of things that everyone envies. If it were me, I would not change my mind easily. "
Du Lin glanced at him a few more times. This guy had no good intentions. These words sounded like they were spoken by a human being, but after careful consideration, none of them could be said by a human being.
He has always been emphasizing Magus and the Timamont family. If he were not afraid of Dulin's status and his temper, he might have exchanged gifts for gifts to intensify Dulin's discomfort and create a purpose of sowing discord. .
Dulin understood and heard these words. He glanced at Saul, put down the cup, shook his head and said nothing.
He felt that Thor was a villain, a real fake villain. He and the eldest prince were like two extremes, one who looked very grand and the other who looked very cunning and nasty. This combination seemed a bit better. Inexplicable expectations.
Seeing Du Lin shaking his head, Thor continued, "You must not know that His Highness was very excited before you came. He told us that you are an outstanding, outstanding, and amazing young man from the empire, who is enough to The group that represents the young people of that year is the target for everyone to learn from and is their role model.”
"For an important person like you, His Highness said that he is willing to do everything possible to gain your support for him. Whether it is the chairman of the committee or the first... leader, you are qualified!"
After Thor said the last word, he stared at Dulin's expression. Dulin raised his eyebrows and grinned, "It's terrible courage. At least I admit that His Highness is very courageous, but it is not enough." Let me change something." He patted his trousers and glanced at Saul, "If you have nothing else to say, please tell your highness that I will go back first."
Seeing that he was about to get up, but before Saul made any move, the female editor appeared out of nowhere and immediately tried to smooth things over, "Saul, did you say something to make Mr. Dulin unhappy? ", she calmly blocked Du Lin's path to leave. She held Du Lin's arm and sat next to him in a familiar manner, not giving Du Lin a chance to get up.
She glared at Sol, who immediately smiled and lightly slapped her cheek, "Oh, look at me, I forgot who I am after drinking some wine at night. If I offended you just now, I hope you can forgive me.”
Du Lin looked at him. He smiled flatteringly, hunched over, and it was like... an indescribable feeling, a feeling of being shameless, leaving everything behind, and completely giving up.
Being looked at by Du Lin, the smile on Sol's face was a little stiff, but he still expressed his apology seriously and his plea for Du Lin's forgiveness.
Everyone has many masks, and it is really important to learn how to use them flexibly. Maybe learning to wear different masks quickly will not make a person rich immediately, but at least it will give him more opportunities.
Du Lin suddenly took a cup that someone didn't know had used in his hand, poured the wine inside into the waste water bucket, and then took the wine bottle and poured a whole glass of wine. If he moved, it would overflow.
He put the bottle down, pointed at the cup, and nodded, "Here, drink it, I forgive you."
