Chapter 989 Are You the Consortium Behind Me?
Yang Fei approached Kane, the tutor of the Harvard MBA, and wanted to handle the matter of withdrawing from school.
Kane looked incredible: "You are a very good student, and your performance in the class is beyond ordinary people. If you really drop out, it will be a loss to you and Harvard. Well, I don't agree. Excuse me, can you Why do you have to quit school?"
Yang Fei expressed his thoughts.
"If it's about honoring your parents, you can go back to your home country every week, or you can bring them to the United States to support them. With your ability, it's not difficult to do it. If it's about managing a business, it shouldn't be for your studies. Obstacles. A established modern enterprise should have a sound self-management system, and it cannot live without the founder.” Kane liked this Chinese student from the other side of the ocean very much and tried his best to keep him.
Yang Fei still insisted on dropping out of school.
Seeing that he couldn't convince him, Kane frowned and said in thought: "Yang, I understand your thoughts, and I will give you a compromise plan. You don't have to go back to school to study, and I will send you the weekly topics. You can study by yourself. You can also participate in the online teaching with our classroom through the form of telephone participation. You come back to school to take the exams of each semester, and I believe that with your ingenuity, you can also complete the next three semesters of study."
Yang Fei smiled and said, "If this is possible, then I'll try it!"
Kane said: "Yang, if you have time, I hope you can come back to study at any time. Harvard will always welcome you."
"Thank you, Professor Kane!" Yang Fei said, "Although I haven't been at Harvard for a long time, I have learned a lot of business management concepts and knowledge that I can use."
After shaking hands with Kane and saying goodbye, Yang Fei wandered around the campus of Harvard University, where the environment is beautiful, there is a strong atmosphere of academic research, and the most intelligent tutors and students in the world are gathered here. It is a sacred place that many students dream of!
Meili Group's branch in the United States has moved to New York.
Yang Fei's house outside Harvard is useless.
He approached Martin and asked him if he had any ideas about buying a house.
Martin showed a very exaggerated expression, and said with a frustrated face: "Mr. Yang, I also want to buy your suite. Your house is a neighbor to my previous house. I am most familiar with that area. It can be said that it is My hometown. However, I don’t have so much money yet.”
Knowing his current situation, Yang Fei pondered: "Mr. Martin, if you want to buy it, you can pay me in installments."
Martin said: "I have a sum of money in my hand, but I want to participate in the new round of gubernatorial elections, so I didn't use it to renovate my house."
Yang Fei said, "You want to run for governor?"
Martin said: "You must also know that in our country, many people have the right to run for governor, but whether they can win depends on the support of the consortium behind them. I can only say that I am doing my best in the governor's election."
Yang Fei said: "This is a good idea, I wish you success."
Martin shrugged: "In the United States, it is not impossible for a black man to be elected governor. After all, Roger Rawls was the first black governor in the history of New York State. He was born in the notorious Great Sandhead slum in New York. The environment here is dirty. Dirty and full of violence, it is a gathering place for stowaways and homeless people. The children born there are influenced by their ears and eyes. They play truant, fight, steal and even do all kinds of crimes since they were young. Few of them have a decent career when they grow up. However, Roger Rowe The exception is Ernes, who not only went to college, but also became governor. But, this is just an exception.”
Yang Fei said: "Mr. Martin,
Don't be so discouraged, who said black people can't succeed? According to me, a black man can still be the president of the United States! "
Of course, Martin didn't believe Yang Fei's words, and said with a smile: "A black man is the president? Impossible. In this country with a strict ethnic hierarchy, a black man is the president? That's a big joke, white people can't agree."
Yang Fei said: "Before Roger Rawls became the governor of New York, who of you would have thought that a black man could run for governor? Similarly, before a black man became the president, no one believed that a black man could also be the president of the United States."
Martin said: "I know I can't run for governor, but I am willing to work hard and try. I am not for myself, I am for overthrowing the unreasonable ethnic system! If each of us is unwilling to work hard, then this situation , will never improve."
Yang Fei said: "In our country, there are dozens of ethnic groups, but each of our ethnic groups is equal. The state will also have corresponding preferential policies for ethnic minorities other than the Han."
"It's different. You are of different races, but you are all of the same race. And we are black, and in the eyes of white people, black people are inferior. I will not give up. I will live for the rest of my life. fight for race and equality."
Yang Fei said: "Mr. Martin, you said something just now. If you want to compete for governor, you need a lot of financial support? Is that right?"
Martin said: "Yes, you need money to win votes and do publicity. This is a material world, and you can't do anything without money."
Yang Fei pondered: "How much money do you need?"
Martin said: "A lot, a lot. It also depends on the region. In some regions, you can win the election with hundreds of thousands of dollars, while in other regions, you can spend tens of millions or even more than 100 million dollars."
Yang Fei said: "You are running for governor of Massachusetts? How much money do you need?"
Martin said helplessly: "A few million dollars, this is a huge amount of money. In the United States, politics cannot be separated from money."
Yang Fei said: "I can sponsor you and help you run for governor."
Martin's eyes widened in surprise: "Really? Are you willing to be the consortium behind me?"
"You think highly of me. I can't be called a consortium." Yang Fei said, "What I fancy is your ideal. You work tirelessly for the equality of ethnic groups! Many of us Chinese come to the United States to study every year. You will be treated unfairly. I hope that through your efforts, you can change this situation."
Of course, this is just Yang Fei's superficial words.
The United States is a federal country with 50 states, which are actually equivalent to 50 small countries. Except for a few powers such as foreign affairs that belong to the federal government, each member enjoys a high degree of autonomy and has its own constitution and parliament.
To put it bluntly, the entire United States is a large company established by fifty shareholders. The states are the shareholders, the Constitution is the articles of association, the Senate is the shareholders meeting, the House of Representatives is the labor union, the federal government is the management of the company, the president is the general manager, and the state governors are the shareholders. represent.
Shareholder representatives do not need to be respectful to the general manager.
Then the relationship between the president and the governor is the same.
Yang Fei remembered a piece of news that he had read before. When *** was president, he went to Arizona for an inspection. As soon as he got off the plane, he had a quarrel with the female governor, Brewer. Brewer didn’t give *** any face. , Severely reprimanded ***, making *** like a child who did something wrong, quite embarrassing.
As for the unreliable comrade, he will sanction at every turn, and get angry if he disagrees with him. He can scold Trudeau on Twitter casually, but he dare not scold the governor.
Therefore, Yang Fei felt that it would be beneficial to him to help Martin run for governor.
As for Massachusetts, there is Harvard University, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This is the most desirable and concentrated state for Chinese overseas students. If Martin can successfully become the governor, it will not only be beneficial to Chinese overseas students, but also beneficial to his future business in the United States. of.
