"Isn't it too exaggerated?" Du Lin sat in the car and looked at the promotional posters on both sides of the street, which were almost covered with Du Lin's bust.
The city hall has issued three penalty notices to Dulin. Because he did not paste promotional posters in the permitted area, he violated city laws and had to accept a fine of one yuan per poster...
However, this fine is not in Dulin's eyes. For every dollar paid, his illegally pasted posters can be kept for an additional seventy-two hours. Sometimes it’s not that the city hall doesn’t act, it’s just that there are a lot of exchanges and interests involved.
In a city, tens of thousands of posters pasted in the wrong places can bring the government much more extra fiscal revenue than other revenue. Who can and who dares to cut off this revenue path
What's more, the person on the poster is still Du Lin, the omnipotent Du Lin!
Hersman, who was sitting next to him and accompanying him, smiled reservedly, shaking his head while laughing, "This is normal, isn't it? In the next stage, we will print at least 150,000 short-sleeved shirts with slogans printed on them and distribute them For voters who support you, each person will receive a subsidy of five yuan per month!”
Dulin laughed a few times and joked, "So political candidates without the support of capital will never have a chance to come to the forefront. This is a pathological political phenomenon."
Helsman had no objection to this, "These are the rules of the game. Maybe the designers of the original rules didn't want it to be like this. This is society's choice!"
This is indeed the case. In fact, there are many very outstanding politicians in the middle and lower classes of the empire. These people have governance concepts and political programs that may be more complete and more suitable for today's society, but they cannot be understood by people.
Are they not good at expressing themselves
Of course not. Every politician is a good communicator. What they lack is the capitalists who appreciate them.
As we all know, policies that are beneficial to the people often harm the interests of capitalists. For example, the Minimum Hourly Wage Law and the Labor Security Law are bills that focus on safeguarding the rights and interests of ordinary people. They protect the rights and interests of ordinary people to the greatest extent. Legal rights and interests are unbearable for capitalists.
Capitalists can no longer legally exploit workers, and can no longer find a reason to let workers with contracts get out, maybe just because they get 5% more wages than others.
Capitalists will not praise these socially responsible politicians. Once these politicians grow up, they will eat people and eat the capitalists instead of providing them with knives and forks to embezzle the wealth of society.
On the contrary, politicians who are closer to the capitalists will get more resources. They always wear the same pants as the capitalists, and they are better at lying and showing off. This way they have more opportunities for exposure and are known by more voters. know.
Gold will always shine
Someone has to dig it out first!
The car passed through several streets and stopped outside a small park that was not spacious. This was the first stop for Dulin's public lecture.
The so-called public speaking, in Hersman's words, is to deceive the masses and say things that these voters like to hear. Whatever they care about, just say it. It doesn't matter whether you can do it or not. When the term is about to end, What you can't do yourself can just be blamed on politicians and supporters who are hostile.
Due to the long-term obstruction of this group of opponents, the failure to accomplish these promised things is not because they have not been done, but because there is too much resistance. Look, just because I want to do these things, I may not even be able to choose now...
A lot of people had already gathered in the park. As soon as Du Lin got out of the car, these people looked at him and applauded. Dulin found a very interesting phenomenon: the middle class and the low-income proletariat were clearly divided into two camps, with an invisible gap separating them.
He walked towards the park with a smile and shook hands with some people. It took him ten minutes to walk a distance of thirty to forty meters and arrived at the high platform in the middle of the small park - a temporary one. Someone from the campaign team was responsible for similar tasks. Things like those professional brokerage companies behind Xie Lisi Street.
"Thank you... thank you all for being able to leave your warm bed and the company of your family on Sunday morning to come here and listen to the voice of a young man like me. Thank you for your recognition and support..." Du Lin lowered his head and glanced He should have continued to read the manuscript under the microphone, but he suddenly picked up the speech, raised it high in an exaggerated manner, and then used a slightly deductive pretense. Read a few sentences in style.
People looked at him silently, wondering what was happening. Hersmann, who was sitting in the car, closed his eyes. He knew that the "Dulin moment" had begun!
He read two sentences and then looked at everyone, "They gave me a manuscript and told me that as long as I read it according to this manuscript and avoid some tough questions, people will like me...", in Seconds later, he suddenly stretched out his other hand and tore the speech into pieces, then threw it away.
"Go ahead and write the speech, go ahead and avoid the sharp questions!" His confident and assertive temperament was vividly reflected in the sunshine at this moment. He tugged on his collar and pressed both sides of the podium with his hands. , leaning forward slightly and approaching the microphone, "I'm here to solve the problem. What I care about is the current situation of life of all classes in the West. I'm not here to act. If someone wants to act, then he should go to the opera house or the cinema, and Not standing here..."
He pointed to the ground beneath his feet, "You're not standing here, standing in the sun, standing in front of the people and lying without any guilt!"
With a bang, people seemed to have just woken up, clapping and whistling excitedly. They liked people like Dulin who were different from other politicians. There was something unique about him that attracted everyone's attention. attention.
Facing the crowd who were starting to get excited, Du Lin raised his hand to silence them. The only voice in the park was Du Lin's voice, "Politics should never be a ridiculous election event, and all voters should not support this." A talent show, because what you select is not the next generation of idols of the empire, but the policy makers who will determine your influence in all aspects for the next eight years or even longer!”
Suddenly someone raised a question, "Mr. Dulin, do you mean that the other candidates are all acting and deceiving the voters?"
Countless eyes were focused on this person, Du Lin also looked at him, and then pointed at him, "This is a sharp question. According to normal procedures, I should divert the question and say something irrelevant and inexplicable." , and then avoid it." People burst into laughter, and it seemed that this was how those politicians behaved.
"But I am not one of those well-known politicians. I am Dulin. I am different and I will not avoid this issue... "
"You think I mean some people are acting and deceiving voters...", the whole park was quiet again, this is a very special issue, because Doolin will most likely offend most politicians, and people also want to Seeing how he answered, Du Lin laughed confidently. He smiled and nodded, "There are some people here who really want to see how I am different from others and want to know what I will say." Come to win votes, and there are others, like this gentleman, who come to watch the fun.”
"I satisfy your desire to watch the fun, and my answer is 'yes'!" Regardless of people's exclamations and those who were beginning to be satisfied to watch the fun, Dulin continued, "Everyone think calmly, before How many politicians before me have promised you a bright future in front of your face, no matter how different their words are, the ultimate core is the same.”
He pointed at these people one by one, "They told you that after they come to power, you will have endless money to spend, medical expenses will be reduced, education expenses will be reduced, and everyone will have a satisfactory job and a happy life." It will become better, just like living in heaven!”
He slammed his hands towards the podium and his voice became passionate, "But look at you now, in the past seven years, in the eight years before seven years and even more in the past eight years, you feel that your life Are you in heaven?"
"Except for those who really went to the Kingdom of Heaven, I have never been there, so I am not sure whether the Kingdom of Heaven they went to is the same as the Kingdom of Heaven described by these people, but the fact is right in front of us!"
"Some of you are still poor, still have no jobs, still cannot afford medical treatment, still have no money to support your children to receive a better education, and still live in poverty. Is this the Kingdom of Heaven?"
"Is this the heaven they describe and what you need?"
"No!"
"They got what they wanted and entered the kingdom of heaven they built for themselves. You gave them votes to support their governance ideas, but you still haven't changed, and may even be worse than before."
"So sir, please tell me and everyone present, is this an act or is it deception?"
Faced with Du Lin's speaking of facts, he revealed certain truths that everyone was covering up. The friends watching the excitement shrank in response to Du Lin's questioning, as well as the urging and a few curses from others. Amidst the boos, he remained silent and walked to the outside of the crowd.
Du Lin smiled disdainfully, with some contempt. There was no doubt that this guy was either a reporter or a spy who wanted to find out the truth and cause him some trouble.
He withdrew his gaze from the little person and looked at everyone, "I am different from those people who are used to telling lies. I am better at solving problems. This is why I advocate running for election!"
"Among so many liars, there should be someone who tells the truth and does practical things!"
