In the afternoon, Saint Jose read a book in the study room of Morton Manor. The decoration style of this manor villa is relatively new and looks good, with many modern facilities and household appliances.
I took out a glass bottle of Coca-Cola Happy Water from the refrigerator and took a few sips, feeling chilled.
"It would be nice if there was an air conditioner. Summer in the United States is also hot, even hotter than in Argentina."
Saint Jesé continued to read books and newspapers, and arranged the development plans of these companies. The goods in New York were so prosperous, and the prices were not expensive. Saint Jesé felt quite happy to be away from home. It was much better here than Argentina.
Morton Manor is said to be a manor, but it is actually a large villa, unlike St. Jose's manor in Argentina.
After all, even in Queens, the price of a large estate is still quite expensive. He doesn't want to spend too much money and it is too high-profile. Blackwater security employees still train at the training ground at 16 Christopher Street most of the time.
Anna helped him purchase hundreds of books, and he also moved his residence from the hotel to Morton Manor. In addition to hanging out in Boston, in the next two or three months,
Saint Jose may spend most of his time here in New York, so a good living environment is important, not only comfortable but also safe.
Morton Manor will not be too far from Manhattan. Whether it is a futures or investment company, he does not intend to personally come forward, just let the new company and Sequoia take action.
Now that the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina has already started school, the New Youth League has Powell, and everything is progressing steadily. He also wants to see if various companies in Argentina can continue to operate normally without him for a few months.
If it proves that they are not good enough, it means that their ability is indeed not good enough. It is estimated that some people will have to be replaced by then. Since coming to the United States and seeing these Americans, he is still a little dissatisfied with the personnel in Argentina. Argentine companies are too comfortable and there is no compete.
St. Hesse saw brutal American competition just on Wall Street. No wonder American companies at this time were the most competitive companies in the world. They were desperately expanding and had begun globalization.
As for the companies under St. Hesse, except for Prairie International and Thunder Mining, they are all flowers in the greenhouse and are well protected by him. He is considering whether to let them face foreign competition to give him greater autonomy. power, even though it would likely keep them out of his control in the future.
For example, Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola are developing very fast this year. In fact, the development of Mirinda soda of Prali Foods has not reached the expected goal this year. It is not a product problem, but a failure to face international competition. He believes that Mirinda is not good at all. Bad Coca-Cola.
On October 2, St. Jose took Anna and several Delta people with him and set off for Boston. When he got on the train at the New York train station, he was attracted by the radio campaign speech of Republican candidate Eisenhower. He watched it these days. The newspaper Eisenhower is currently at a serious disadvantage, far inferior to Adlai's approval rating.
It makes St. Hesse wonder whether American history has inadvertently changed. Is Eisenhower going to fail? This is troublesome. Could it be that the little butterfly in Argentina is starting to influence the Americans?
St. Hesse was in a cold sweat for a while, but as he slowly listened to Eisenhower's new speech, he also caught something unusual. It seemed that Eisenhower was changing his campaign strategy. Everything should be done in time, and the election was still halfway to the end. time.
Eisenhower's political path was actually a sudden change of style, but he had a large financial group supporting him and the public support rate was still very high. The Democratic Party was actually very powerful, including not only Truman but also a group of bigwigs, as well as Ade Lai, a person with high prestige.
If he had to choose, he would still choose Eisenhower. This man's political skills were relatively good, and his basic line of governance for the next eight years was still very clear. He was prosperous in the first four years and a little arrogant in the last four years.
This was also a baptism for him. Many famous American presidents have already emerged in American politics, including future big figures in the United States such as Kennedy and Nixon.
The 28-year-old Bush is running an oil company. He is already a well-known young rich man. After leaving the army, he studied at Yale University. The oil company is currently doing well. In a few years, he may give up business and enter politics and run for Congress.
The 41-year-old Reagan is currently a very famous movie star in Hollywood, California. He is already middle-aged in terms of actor experience. There is no indication that he has political ambitions. There are many posters of Reagan on the road. I have to admit that Reagan was indeed a young man. Very handsome.
The 35-year-old Kennedy is already a famous rising political star in the United States. If nothing unexpected happens, he will become the future President of the United States at the age of 43.
As for the 39-year-old Nixon, he was already running for vice president and chatting and laughing with Eisenhower. This guy really had a talent for political performance.
In this election, Eisenhower was at a disadvantage from the beginning. His vote share and his opponents were getting bigger and bigger. Now everyone felt that he had no chance, and some in his campaign team also proposed to give up the campaign.
Eisenhower was unmoved. He now adjusted his strategy in a timely manner, using his strengths as a "hero of World War II" to focus on his opponent's weakness of "evading military service." The people in the car next to him were also talking very interestingly.
New York State is home to many famous institutions of higher learning. It is open-minded and liberal. It has always been a staunch follower of the Democratic Party. Now it has begun to support a Republican candidate. This has surprised many people. It seems that Truman has indeed done a lot of harm to economically developed areas. Deep, this damn war.
"Strong historical inertia, but I like it. Eisenhower still has a bright future."
The three-person debate included a middle-aged man wearing a cowboy hat, an old man, and a young guy wearing a suit. Their debate was very interesting.
"I decided to vote for Eisenhower. We want to end the Goryeo War and lower taxes! We have already participated in World War II, why should we participate in a boring war? Even the Soviets are laughing at us. Truman should step down as soon as possible."
The man in the cowboy hat said excitedly that he came to New York from Dallas, Texas, but could only find a bad job with a salary of less than 100 US dollars. Now he plans to try his luck in Boston.
"I think what Eisenhower just said makes sense. We want bread, not war! War is too terrible. We should engage in economic war, not military war!"
The young man Cervantes also supported Eisenhower. He had not been to the battlefields of World War II. He was only 14 years old at the time, but if the United States continued the war, it was likely that he would be drafted into the army.
"Eisenhower also served as president of Columbia University. I even shook hands with him at the time. He was a very good person."
He boasted and added that in fact he was a freshman at Columbia at that time and did not shake hands with Eisenhower at all, but when quarreling and debating with others, you must brag a lot, especially young people.
"Forget it, people from IBM didn't push him, he didn't do anything!"
The old man dismissed it as pro-Democrat, but Truman's policies were truly disappointing.
"But he got a lot of sponsorship for Columbia University. I was a student at that time. He also liked to watch football games. What bad intentions could such a person have!"
The young man was not convinced and continued muttering.
"And he also defeated the Germans. You Germans are the losers! I must vote for him! You Germans have no right to say General Ai or President Ai!"
The middle-aged man interrupted and said,
"He is a war madman and will definitely fight other wars. This can be seen from the memoirs he wrote."
"You are just jealous... Did you listen to the broadcast just now? This guy Aled has not even served as a soldier. How can such a person resist Stalin, a war maniac?"
"I think Nixon would be good to be the vice president. This guy is against the Soviets, and he is very young. Young people are energetic. Stalin should not live for a few more years. I hope that is the case."
The old man turned to talking about Nixon. He admired Nixon's opposition to the Soviet Union. The Red Soviet Union was too terrible.
"Let me tell you a true story. When Lenin was about to die, he called Stalin and said to Stalin worriedly: After I leave, you must be kind to the people, otherwise they will not follow you! Stalin smiled He said with a smile: I have already thought of a countermeasure. If they don’t follow me, they will follow you!”
After the old man finished speaking, the whole carriage was silent. Seeing that no one else was speaking, he continued.
St. Hesse didn't know what to think when he heard this kind of Soviet joke, but Stalin did have too much prestige and put a lot of pressure on people, and Eisenhower had great military exploits. They also believed that such a person could withstand the Soviet attack.
"Okay, then I'll vote for Eisenhower too. At least I don't like a weakling who won't even dare to serve in the military. I participated in World War I and fought against the Germans. I voted for this guy Nixon. I like this guy." .”
"Old Will, then you are one of ours too."
"Ha ha……"
Saint Jose found it interesting to watch these Americans defending the president, but they quickly got off the bus, which was quite regrettable.
Americans also like key politics, and they are quite knowledgeable. After the Korean War, they will start the Vietnam War, but it will only require Eisenhower's second term.
…
In July of this year, at the Republican Party's presidential election, Eisenhower was nominated as the presidential candidate. In order to win the election and appease the conservatives led by Taft, Nixon was nominated by him as the vice presidential candidate. Nixon is a current member of the U.S. Senate. He is 39 years old and has a good reputation for his tough opposition to the Soviet Union.
During World War II, Eisenhower's outstanding military record and easy-going personality earned him great popularity among the military and the American people.
A 1947 poll indicated that both parties would have nominated him as their party's presidential candidate if he had chosen to do so, but he ultimately voted Republican this year.
When Eisenhower was in office in Europe, his supporters continued to create public opinion in the United States and used the newspapers, radio stations and other public opinion tools they controlled to vigorously promote him.
Some capitalists with ties to international finance, especially those with close ties to Western Europe, were particularly active in the movement to support him.
Sanjesé has always been most concerned about the United States, Argentina's most powerful and terrifying opponent, and he is not very familiar with running for president. Now Argentina's presidential election is not very formal. Bilon is still a scheming boy after all, and the Radical Party It is normal to fail last year.
The domestic political and economic situation in the United States this year is not good. Because Truman plunged the United States into the quagmire of the Goryeo War, taxes have increased, and the cost of living has increased. The post-war economic prosperity no longer exists. The American people are dissatisfied with the government and pin their hopes on the Republican Party. After several secret discussions behind the scenes, Eisenhower finally joined the Republican Party.
On the Democratic side, because of Truman's second term, McCarthyism, the Goryeo War, and frequent scandals in the U.S. government, Truman announced that he would give up re-election this year and look for his successor.
The man he found was Illinois Governor Adlai Stevenson,
At first, Adlai was unwilling to run, but the Democratic Party tried hard to get him to come forward. The Democratic National Committee chose Chicago, an important city in Illinois, as the venue for the convention. Adlai's speech at the opening ceremony of the convention The speech was also praised by many people.
As Vice President Buckley announced that he would not run for the election, Adlai became a life-saving straw for the Democratic Party bosses. With the continuous persuasion of Truman and several governors, Adlai announced his candidacy at the Democratic Convention and successfully won the nomination. Lay picked Senator Sparkman of Alabama as his partner to avoid another split in the Democratic Party.
Eisenhower had now begun his vigorous campaign, and compared with Adlai, the advantage was not obvious, or even at a significant disadvantage.
His campaign started in the south, and the forces supporting the campaign were well-established.
Large financial groups such as Rockefeller, Morgan, Society and Mellon all took a fancy to him because his post-war policy propositions of military expansion, war preparation, and outward expansion were in line with the interests of large financial groups.
The first person to recommend him was Thomas John Watson, general manager of International Business Machines Corporation (IBM). This man was very influential in the American financial circle and had served as a director of Morgan Guarantee Trust Company.
Also supporting him were Aldrich, the head of the Rockefeller syndicate and chairman of Chase Bank, and Perkins, chairman of Equitable Life Insurance Company.
St. Hesse also casually read the campaign newspapers. Almost half of the presidential campaign has passed. Presidential campaigns usually last about 8 weeks. On September 2, Eisenhower announced his candidacy, but in terms of support rate, he was still not as good as Adlai. team.
But he only looked at how these Americans campaigned. The United States is mainly Republican and Democratic, and other parties are not worth mentioning. This is completely different from Argentina.
Argentina has too many chaotic parties, and they are not very strong.
"Anna, what do you think about this election?"
Saint Jose planned to ask Anna what she thought.
"I think anyone can take the stage. Anyway, it's pretty much the same. Our lives won't change much."
"okay."
More than three hours later, St. Jose got off the bus at Boston's South Station.
As soon as I came to Boston, I felt a completely different feeling from New York. It was chaos, yes, it was chaos.
Boston South Station is located in Dewey Square at the intersection of Atlantic Avenue and Summer Street. As soon as I got off the train, I saw several shootings and robberies, and the Police Department was belatedly put an end to them.
Yes, the gangs are fighting in broad daylight. It can be seen that the security of Boston is far inferior to that of New York. It is indeed one of the strongholds of the Mafia.
"This is the real America, shootings every day."
Saint Jose felt that his idea finally came to his senses.
Boston is the capital and largest city of Massachusetts and the largest city in the New England region of the northeastern United States.
