    Yes, there is a short editor's note next to this news. They expressed great concern for Wang Lei's "community revitalization" and mentioned that Wang Lei once told reporters about "Bowling Alone."  ¡±, they plan to conduct an in-depth series of reports on this topic.

    ¡°Wow, this is really good news!¡±

    Wang Lei smiled and patted the newspaper. Although the Tribune did not focus on the election or himself, "community revitalization" was his campaign platform and he was the first to initiate it. The topic became more and more popular. For him,  The benefits will be greater.

    Good news came one after another. Pittsburgh Cable News, a local TV station affiliated with NBC, one of the three major commercial radio and television companies in the United States, also broadcast the news of "18-year-old boy running for town mayor" on the evening news.  Rachel also told Emily that the news station will decide whether to conduct follow-up reports based on audience feedback. So far, the situation seems to be pretty good, and the station has intentions in this regard.

    "Damn it!" Hawke picked up the remote control angrily, turned off the big-screen TV, then leaned back on the sofa, breathing heavily.

    "Hawke, what's wrong with you? Are you worried about that little baby?" Hawke's wife, a middle-aged woman who has just turned forty but has wrinkles on her face and extremely saggy skin, dissatisfiedly picked up a  A snake fruit, biting it loudly.

    "This news is not that magical. Our propaganda is huge. You will definitely be elected!"

    Hawke straightened up and shook his head angrily: "I know, I know I can win, but these little bastards are too troublesome. If I can't be elected with an absolute advantage, even if I win, it will be a farce."

    Hawke is really feeling the pressure, and being in newspapers and on TV means that this matter will become the focus of everyone.

    There are 3,000 people in the town and close to 2,000 voters of appropriate age. Only less than 400 people voted in the last election, and the number of votes he received was only more than 200.

    In the past two years, his work has been pretty good. He has made no mistakes and has no outstanding performance. The number of votes he can get this time is at most the same as the last time, which is more than 200 and less than 300 votes. If the remaining  Those people voted for Rex out of opposition to him, because they thought the eighteen-year-old mayor was interesting, or for some other reason. His vote was not that safe.

    "Then continue to increase the intensity. Aren't they in the newspaper? Then we will go up every day and crush them to death," Hawke's wife made a slicing motion and said aggressively.

    ¡°Rex, that¡¯s awesome!¡±

    Wang Lei and his friends have just watched the news at home and clapped their hands together to celebrate excitedly. There are not many opportunities to appear on TV, which shows that they are being watched.

    "Rex!" Hu Shuying took the phone and shook it at Wang Lei, asking him to answer it.

    "It's Grandpa Abel."

    "Grandpa Abel!" Wang Lei answered the phone and suddenly realized what this call meant. He felt ecstatic in his heart: "Grandpa, have you watched TV?"

    "Yes, Rex, you did a great job!" Grandpa Abel said softly on the phone. He praised Wang Lei's "Community Revitalization Plan": "It's great. I think you should take a look at it carefully.  It¡¯s a book.¡±

    "Yes, Grandpa Abel, I am watching them seriously and hope to implement them," Wang Lei asked everyone to quiet down and said seriously.

    Abel smiled on the other end of the phone: "Very good. Although I don't know if you can be a good mayor, I will support you in revitalizing the community. If you have any needs or questions, remember to come to me."

    "Thank you, grandpa!"

    Rex hung up the phone with some disappointment. Grandpa Abel still refused to stand up and help him run for mayor.

    "Lei, Grandpa Abel doesn't want to influence everyone's choice. This is what we told you, the golden mean," Hu Shuying said from the side.

    "I know." Wang Lei nodded to express his understanding, then turned to his friends and said, "Good news, Grandpa Abel has seen our news and he will support us."

    "Wow!" Everyone cheered excitedly. Grandpa Abel is an elder in the town. Almost everyone grew up listening to the stories he told, and they have unusual respect for this old man.

    "Emily, tomorrow you go to Grandpa Abel's house, give him our newspaper, and ask him to write an inscription or write something." Wang Lei smiled. The old man was unwilling to stand up, but he had to let him play his role.  energy.

    The phone at Wang Lei¡¯s home began to ring non-stop. Brady, Eric and others called one after another to congratulate him and expressed optimism about the prospects of the ¡°Community Revitalization¡± plan.  In addition, some people they were not familiar with called Wang Lei's parents and asked them for details.Case.

    "It would be great if Rachel's special report plan can be realized!" Emily said with a smile.

    The influence of television seems to far exceed that of newspapers. Just a small piece of news has already caused a huge response in Braddock.

    If we can continue to report, the results will be self-evident.

    Wang Lei smiled and shook his head: "I'm afraid it will be difficult. Don't forget Hawke's influence. NBC and news stations are both left-leaning and have a very good relationship with the Democratic Party. Hawke has a huge influence on the Pittsburgh Democratic Party."

    The reaction of the Post illustrates the problem. Hawke could not prevent the news from appearing in the Post, but he could influence the attitude of the Post. They simply reported the matter and the language was even more biased towards Hawke.

    If it weren¡¯t for Rachel, the news station¡¯s reports might not be so objective. The media all have their own positions, and it all depends on who can influence or even control the media.

    After watching the TV, Wang Lei, Colin and Emily discussed the arrangement of the second issue of the tabloid. The first issue of the tabloid has been printed, and Douglas, Luca and others will stuff the newspaper into the mailboxes of the town residents at night.

    This newspaper is called "The Braddock Man", and the final version is two octavo pages, that is, a piece of octavo white paper printed on two sides. If the layout is not staggered, it would be more like a large leaflet.

    The front page of the tabloid carried information about Wang Lei, his campaign platform, and the activities of the Braddock and I Love Braddock organizations. The second page, which was the back of the paper, printed some campaign jokes and developments.  Cases, current affairs reviews, etc. are all articles Alvin collected from the Internet, and they look very interesting.

    Wang Lei is responsible for determining the direction and the overall idea of ??layout arrangement. Emily is responsible for organizing the manuscripts, and some of them are written by herself. Colin uses typesetting software to arrange the layout, and then prints it through Wang Yang.

    Because there are more things during the day, they have to determine the layout at night. Colin's special ability saves them a lot of work. They don't need to operate on the computer. He can calculate what they want by just looking at the paragraphs and word count of the article.  How large a piece of space it occupies - usually the error is minimal, so the final layout can be finalized quickly.

    Wang Lei hopes that this tabloid under their own control can produce unexpected effects.

    It wasn't until he was sleeping that Wang Lei had the opportunity to open the presidential book in his mind and see the changes on it at a glance - a new badge appeared, it was the "Town Star" badge, which was a tribute to him being in the news.  Media, the rewards of being a newsmaker.

    The "Town Star" badge can be exchanged for the primary "Town Star" halo, which can increase his popularity and favor among the residents of the town.

    "marvelous!"

    Wang Lei couldn¡¯t help but applaud. This is a charming halo that covers the entire map. It is not like a specific halo like ¡°Young Leader¡± or ¡°Friend of the Community¡± that can only affect a certain group of people.

    The town star halo can also affect a specific group of people - all the residents of the town, which is undoubtedly a huge help to him.

    Unfortunately, the Town Star badge has only been lit up halfway, and the experience and reputation he has gained are not enough to redeem the Town Star halo.

    We must continue to increase our exposure in the media!  Wang Lei turned over the page helplessly, opening the simulation training aura with expectations for the future. He had been very busy these days, and now he had the opportunity to experience this new simulation aura.

    After deciding to use the halo, the Presidential Book provides some specific scenes, eight in total. The higher the level of the simulated halo, the more simulated scenes are provided. The advanced halo can even be made up by oneself, which is completely arbitrary.

    Wang Lei chose the scene of "a gathering of ten thousand people". After confirming it, he immediately found himself on a podium where ten thousand people gathered, facing a dense and spectacular crowd. Their breathing sounded like the sound of Lake Erie.  Waves roared towards us.

    The scene was very real. Wang Lei could even see the expressions on everyone's faces. Some people were yelling at him and making vulgar gestures. If he hadn't known that this was a simulated environment, he would have thought it was real.  .

    Even if he knew it, Wang Lei felt huge pressure. Speaking in front of tens of thousands of people is a completely different concept from speaking in front of dozens or hundreds of people.

    Wang Lei stood in front of the microphone. As soon as he opened his mouth, he was drowned by a roaring sound

    ps: We have also recommended it. Whether you can become a "Media Star" depends on everyone.  A post actually appeared in the book review today, saying that my membership had fewer clicks and more recommendation votes, saying that I had swiped votes.  Damn it, do I need to refresh this data?  It¡¯s not even on the first page of the newcomer list, and it¡¯s stuck at the bottom of the category newcomer list. Is there anyone who can brush votes like this?  certainly,This also shows one thing, that is, our readers are relatively enthusiastic in voting. I want to thank everyone.  There are few clicks because there are no recommendations. Except for the original few chapter recommendations, the exposure rate is too low. Now that it is recommended, the clicks will definitely come up, but we still need to ask everyone to vote more and actively participate in community life and community construction.  I recommend this book, thank you all.
