    ps: The appetizers have been served successfully. The next chapter is Ray¡¯s career as mayor, which officially opens the curtain of American officialdom. To celebrate, everyone please vote for me!  All kinds of votes, all kinds of collections, all kinds of clicks, thank you all!

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    "A miracle happened, yes, a miracle, this is a miracle. Hawke got almost all the votes equivalent to the last election, but he lost to his opponent by three votes. He just turned ten a month ago.  Eight-year-old Chinese boy Rex." David Johnson's passionate voice echoed on the TV.

    "Yes, you heard it right, the winner is the Chinese-American boy Rex, he has created a miracle, and he will become the youngest mayor in the United States."

    "Haha, Hawke has already begun to celebrate the victory. Unexpectedly, the final result is an incredible reversal. Let's take a look at the two old and new mayors. Their expressions are full of drama. Oh, Rex and  His partner was banging his chest in celebration, and I seemed to be able to hear the bang bang bang bang sound, which was very powerful." Peggy laughed on the TV, and they once again brought a good show to the audience. Even many years later, people  When reviewing this video, their voices can also be heard.

    Dramatically, Wang Lei defeated his opponent by three votes and won the election, becoming the youngest mayor in the history of Braddock. At the same time, he was also the youngest mayor of a town with more than 1,000 people in the history of the United States.  He set a record.

    "Rex set a record, and there was no fluke in his election. Today, when voter turnout is declining across the United States, Braddock's turnout has more than doubled that of last time, and is even close to the data from the 1996 presidential election. This is  What does it mean? It means that this election campaign is very fierce, and both sides are mobilizing voters to go out and vote." After the coffin was concluded, the two old anchors of the news station, David Johnson and Peggy Finnigan, took turns to analyze the situation of this election.  .

    "The turnout in local elections in the United States has always been very low, but in Braddock, they created a miracle. The data we obtained showed that the turnout in this election was as high as 61.33%, which is absolutely  An oddity in local elections.¡±

    The two hosts have distinctive styles and a tacit understanding of cooperation. Peggy listed the data, while David was full of passion: "With such a high turnout, Rex won. It is undisputed and well-deserved. Let us congratulate him.  , as we said before, this is a victory for voters and a victory for the American democratic system."

    ¡°What¡¯s the reason why a teenager who has just turned eighteen can defeat veteran politicians and be elected mayor? It¡¯s because of the support of voters. This is American democracy, and American dreams come true.¡±

    "Rex, do you have anything to say?" Rachel immediately squeezed in front of Wang Lei and interviewed him.

    "It's very cool!" Wang Lei, who was having a carnival with his friends, suddenly turned around and pointed at the camera and said loudly.  Then he straightened up and straightened his messy suit, with a bright smile on his face.

    "I'm sorry, I'm really happy, even a little carried away." Wang Lei said to the camera, but he still couldn't help but laugh: "Haha, yes, I am very happy, this may be the happiest moment in my life  One day, because I can finally do more things for Braddock, things that I wanted to do before but couldn't do, I'm very grateful for everyone's support, and I hope everyone can continue to support me."

    "Rex, you know, you have set a record. You are the youngest serving mayor in the United States. Many people are paying attention to you!"

    "Yes, I know a lot of people are paying attention. I hope everyone can continue to pay attention to Braddock, because this place has always been so different. I also hope everyone can help Braddock. I said, we  We need to build a community full of tradition, history and culture. If you like these, don¡¯t forget to come to Braddock to see it, you will definitely like it here.¡± Wang Lei said loudly on the camera.

    "Haha, it seems that we don't have to worry about Rex's age. He got into the mood very quickly. Within three minutes of being elected, he started promoting his town." David laughed.

    Peggy also smiled and said: "Strictly speaking, Rex is not Braddock's mayor yet. He will have to wait until next month to change shifts with Hawke. Of course, Braddock is indeed the most important person at the moment.  Great publicity opportunity, I don¡¯t think they¡¯ve ever had so much media attention at the same time.¡±

    "Yes, but they don't have to worry about it in the future. Rex will become a star, an idol for teenagers across the United States, and a role model for Chinese Americans. We also hope that he can perform well."

    After the initial commotion, Hawke walked up to Wang Lei graciously and congratulated him. Wang Lei also expressed his gratitude to him for his continuous contribution to the town and hoped that he would continue to do so.

    From this moment on, Wang Lei is?Taking Braddock as the mayor requires himself, although his performance is still a bit raw.

    Then, Jaxon asked Wang Lei to go up the steps and deliver his acceptance speech to the one or two hundred town residents present and the media present.  This is a small town election, and if it were the president, they would have a press conference dedicated to it.

    "Rex, don't be nervous, you are the best!" Before Rex left, Emily waved her fist to him to encourage him.

    Wang Lei responded with a bright smile. He knew what Emily was worried about. Not long ago, he almost messed up a speech for a dozen people. This time there were more than two hundred people present, and Emily was worried that he was too nervous.

    how could be?  Standing on the steps, facing hundreds of concerned eyes, Wang Lei was very relaxed. He had faced tens of thousands of people in the "simulation training halo". There was really nothing exciting about the scene in front of him.

    "Thank you everyone!" Wang Lei stood in front of the microphone and looked at the small town residents in front of him. He suddenly felt very real and moved. They were all ordinary and ordinary. Many of them were poor, and one-third of them were poor.  People living in poverty-stricken counties and below have shortcomings of one kind or another: selfishness, greed, laziness, greed for pleasure, fear of taking risks, etc., but they are all living people, and everyone is born equal.  Things are better in Ruddock, and they deserve more income and a better life, just like the people in Pittsburgh.

    "Thank you to all the Braddocks, we are like a big family. I have harassed most of you in the past period. I want to say sorry here, but in the future I may  If he harasses you all the time, please don¡¯t call the police.¡±

    "Haha!" The temporary loudspeaker was not loud, but this time everyone was relatively quiet. They heard Wang Lei's words clearly, and many people couldn't help laughing.

    "Special thanks to those who voted for me. I know that many of you thought it was impossible for me to be elected. The news station can testify that you may have filled in the wrong ballot, or you wanted to do a prank, or you just voted casually.  Or maybe you want to see my jokes, but the result is that I was elected, and I have to thank you very much!" Wang Lei said with a smile.

    The laughter below became louder again. Everyone found that the young man on the steps seemed to be quite humorous. Only with humor can he be a good official, at least not so serious and disgusting.

    Wang Lei added: "I believe you will find this choice is great, because I am the youngest mayor in the United States. I can work here for sixty years, until your children retire, and I can continue to serve you."  By serving your grandson, you have found the most loyal butler for life."

    "Haha, well said, Rex!" Some people started to applaud, although they knew that Wang Lei could not stay in Braddock forever. He would also go to college and even run for governor or president. Braddock  It was still too young, but Wang Lei's words still made them feel very comfortable.

    "Of course, I would also like to thank my parents. They have given me a lot of support. Regarding this, I will confess to the election committee that their large donations cannot be measured in dollars, so I cannot register them in the accounts. They gave  There are too many and the details cannot be released. I hope these will not be considered black gold, although their value is very, very high, above all else.¡±

    "And my sister, the cutest Huahua, I emptied your piggy bank. I originally planned not to use them, but, you know, I have to prove to everyone that I am rich, they all said  In America, you can only win an election if you have a lot of money. Haha, I won in the end because I have a rich sister.¡±

    Wang Lei didn¡¯t make a draft before he came up. He didn¡¯t have time before, but later he didn¡¯t have the mind and didn¡¯t dare to consider this issue. It wasn¡¯t until he faced the microphone that he calmed down his excitement and began to speak impromptu.

    Although he used the simulated halo to train his speech hard, at this moment, he did not use any speech skills. All these were his true feelings, and these thanks had been lingering in his heart.

    Finally got this chance to vent.

    "And my friends, Colin, Luca, Wang Yang, Alvin, Douglas, etc., as well as the most beautiful Emily, you have worked harder than me, although I have to say, this is  It¡¯s a great training opportunity. Each of us is growing. If I have such an opportunity in the future, I will still look for you.¡±

    "Wow, Rex, I don't need your thanks. Next time on the court, you let me beat you once!" Luka shouted, and the others also laughed knowingly. There was no need between them.  Say thank you.

    "I also want to thank many people, Grandpa Abel, Uncle Brady, Aunt Donna, and Walker, Eric Oh, I'd better not continue to read the names, otherwise IThinking about Three Thousand and Thirteen, it will take about seven or eight hours. People will be impatient and think they are watching the Oscars. Although I really want to attend, I'd better wait until next year.  "

    ¡°Haha¡ª¡ª¡± Everyone laughed, even those well-informed reporters thought Wang Lei was really funny.

    "Of course, there are also all the media reporters and observers from public organizations who have come from afar. You are lucky enough to witness a miracle. If you are smart enough and continue to pay attention to Braddock, you will witness another miracle.  Of course, if you want to get involved, we¡¯d love to provide the opportunity.¡±

    The reporters all laughed. It was clearly Braddock who needed publicity, but in Wang Lei's words, it seemed as if they needed Braddock. Of course, if Braddock could really create a miracle, they would definitely continue to pay attention.  , and reported.

    Like this time, everyone needs news.

    "Braddock needs a miracle, because it has been stuck in the quagmire of recession for many years, and he can no longer go on like this; everyone gave me a miracle, and I also hope to give everyone a miracle, but the birth of a miracle requires all of us.  Work together, whether you support me or support Hawke, including me and Hawke, we all need to unite." Wang Lei suddenly changed his tone and spoke of Braddock seriously. This is a heavy topic  , he must let everyone see hope and unite.

    "With all due respect, a month ago, no one would have thought that I had a chance. I was 18 years old, of Chinese descent, a poor boy, and my campaign funds were probably less than one-tenth of the opponent's. I had no administrative experience, and my opponent  He is a once-successful social elite with high moral standards, dedicated to Braddock for many years, effective work, excellent reputation, and abundant funds"

    "We have no credentials, only hard work. My partner and I visited almost every resident three to four times. We ran our own newspapers, websites, organized mutual aid societies, and founded clubs. This is what an 18-year-old boy  Can it be done? Yes, we did it, and the miracle happened.¡±

    "I think Braddock's revival will not be more difficult than this, because this time we have three thousand partners. As long as we unite as one, we will be invincible and create new miracles."
