Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In early May, the weather in Los Angeles is warm and pleasant.  In the Wang family villa not far from Hollywood, a middle-aged Western man who looked to be in his early fifties and an Oriental boy in his twenties with black hair and dark eyes were sitting side by side, discussing something unknown.  But it seemed that the topic of conversation was very enjoyable for both parties.

    "Mike, I really can't tolerate this guy like you. You are indispensable wherever I go. I thought that you would restrain yourself in the past two years, but I didn't expect that you are still so arrogant." This middle-aged man was the last Californian  State Governor, Ronald Wilson Reagan.

    "My future President of the United States, please don't talk about your friends like that. Haven't I explained it to you before? Although we are good friends, we can only be friends for many years. Do you know that the age gap is very big?  So we have a generation gap. Do you understand the generation gap? I am still young and need to leave a mark on the world and let people know my existence. Unlike you, a seventy-year-old man who needs to hide his power and bide his time. Well, I won¡¯t talk about you.  It's an old man, you look like you're in your early fifties at most, no, you should be in your mid-forties!" Wang Wei quickly changed his words when he saw Reagan looking like he was trying his best.  God knows this guy cares so much about his age and appearance.

    Hearing Wang Wei say that he was in his early forties, Reagan had a bright smile on his face again.  And he very narcissistically touched his shaved chin, which had no trace of beard.

    "Mike, you are always a sharp-tongued guy. You are worthy of being a writer."

    In response to Reagan's complaint, Wang Wei smiled, spread his hands and said, "Can I think this is your appreciation for me?"

    Looking at Wang Wei with a shameless look on his face.  Reagan was finally defeated and said: "Mike, sometimes I feel that you really don't look like a Chinese. Because you don't have any traditional Chinese virtues, but are full of Western arrogance."

    In response to Reagan's words, Wang Wei shook his head and said: "You only know one, but not the other. In fact, Easterners are not only reserved. Sometimes when forced, they will show off their sharp edges, otherwise they will be regarded as good.  Bullying.¡±

    After listening to Wang Wei's words, Reagan nodded and said in broken Chinese: "This is what you Orientals call a good person who is bullied by others. What does it mean when a good horse is ridden by others?"

    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to actually learn Eastern idioms. It¡¯s really not to be underestimated.¡± Wang Wei joked about Reagan¡¯s poor Chinese.

    However, Reagan seemed to have misunderstood. He tilted his head arrogantly and said: "My friend, you have underestimated me. As a person who aspires to run for president of the United States, paying attention to the East, especially China, is a required course.  Besides, I have to learn some Chinese even for my friend, Mike.¡±

    Looking at Reagan¡¯s confident look, Wang Wei nodded secretly.  In the presidential election battle three years ago, Reagan lost by a few votes when he ran for the presidential candidate against fellow Republican Gerald Ford.  At that time, Reagan was already frustrated with the campaign because of his age, and originally planned to leave politics.  At that time, Wang Wei already had a very good private relationship with Reagan.  Just a few words of comfort.

    And because of these two sentences, Lien slowly walked away from the shadow of failure and returned to his peak state. This was not easy for an old man who was nearly 70 years old.

    So when Wang Wei saw Reagan's confident expression, he couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration in his heart.  Sure enough, no one who can be president is a weak person in life.

    After the two joked for a while, they finally turned to the serious matters they were going to talk about today.

    "By the way. Ronald, how are you preparing? I don't want my millions of dollars to go to waste." Wang Wei said with a smile.

    After listening to Wang Wei¡¯s words, a light flashed across Reagan¡¯s face: ¡°I have been preparing for this campaign for more than three years. I believe I will succeed this time.¡±

    "That's good! As long as you campaign with peace of mind, I will take care of the campaign funds and publicity." Wang Wei laughed after listening to Reagan's words.

    "Mike, I feel very lucky to have you as my friend." After hearing Wang Wei's words, Reagan's eyes flashed with emotion.

    Because since that campaign, Reagan spent all his previous savings, his life has fallen into embarrassment.  At this time, Wang Wei not only encouraged Reagan spiritually, but also generously donated materials.  Let Reagan prepare for the campaign with peace of mind.  And now they are spending huge sums of money to support Reagan's re-election. How could Reagan not be moved by all the help?

    In response to Reagan's sensational thanks, Wang Wei waved his hand and said: "I say Ronald, please stop being sensational here. Please make it clear that I am a businessman, so I sponsor you just because I want to get bigger."  Benefits, please don¡¯t think how much I thinkGood.  "

    In response to Wang Wei's denial, Reagan shook his head and asked seriously: "There are so many candidates with opportunities, why did you only choose me? You know I will be sixty-nine next year. This is so important to a presidential candidate."  That¡¯s not a good sign.¡±

    Reagan¡¯s considerations are indeed reasonable, but the problem is that Wang Wei cannot tell the truth. Wang Wei cannot say that he supported Reagan because he knew in advance that Reagan would definitely be elected president of the United States.  Therefore, Wang Wei could only respond silently to Reagan's question.  But this led to Reagan's misunderstanding.

    Seeing that Wang Wei was silent, Reagan was silent for a moment, and then said: "Wang, according to your Chinese speaking, you should be my Bole, but please believe me, I will definitely prove that you, the Bole, did not make a mistake.  I will definitely be a thousand-mile horse.¡±

    This time, Reagan did not call Wang Wei by his English name, but by his Chinese surname. This showed that the relationship between the two was much deeper in Reagan's mind.

    This time Reagan spoke another sentence in Chinese, and it was still lame, but Wang Wei was not laughing or teasing, but nodded heavily and said: "Believe me, Ronald, you are the best."  , you will definitely succeed in next year¡¯s general election.¡±

    In response to Wang Wei's rare seriousness, Reagan suddenly made a cold joke and said: "I think so too."

    "Narcissism" Reagan's words instantly broke the seriousness that had just been established.  Wang Wei couldn't help but laugh and curse.

    Reagan didn¡¯t care about Wang Wei¡¯s laughter and scolding.  After being intoxicated for a while, he then raised his head and said to Wang Wei on the side: "Wang, are you really planning to set up a TV station in the United States?"

    In response to Reagan's question, Wang Wei rolled his eyes and said, "If I don't plan to really do it, why don't I lie to you? Besides, I can rely on the TV station to promote your presidential election next year. What if I don't do it?"

    |After listening to Wang Wei's words, Reagan was silent for a moment and said: "If you really want to start a TV station, I have a good way to make your new TV tower famous in one fell swoop."

    Reagan¡¯s words made Wang Wei¡¯s eyes light up: ¡°What can we do? Tell us?¡±

    ¡°I didn¡¯t know you were interested in sports competitions?¡± Reagan winked at Wang Wei and said.

    "What does this have to do with the TV station becoming famous?" Wang Wei asked doubtfully.

    "Of course it does matter. You know that Los Angeles successfully bid for the Olympics." Reagan thought for a moment and said.

    "All Americans know this. Although I am an American, don't forget that I hold an American green card. So what do you think?" Wang Wei stared at Reagan and said.

    "Well, since you know, let me tell you straight away, I wonder if you are interested in hosting the Olympics!" Reagan thought for a moment, and then tried to adjust his tone to the calmest possible state.  I was afraid of being frightened by this suggestion.

    But even though Reagan¡¯s tone has been adjusted to the slowest.  But Wang Wei was still stunned by this proposal. He stared at Reagan blankly for a long time before he said faintly: "You mean to ask me to host the Olympic Games? Oh, Ronald, are you sure you are not here?"  Just kidding, you didn¡¯t say these words because you were delirious because of the red wine you just drank.¡±

    Reagan had already anticipated Wang Wei's reaction. After all, privately hosting the Olympics was unprecedented, so it was normal for Wang Wei to have such a reaction. Moreover, Wang Wei's current reaction was much better than Reagan expected.

    Questions about Wang Wei.  Reagan organized his language, hoping to use the most concise language to make Wang Wei understand what he just meant.

    "Wang. It's like this. You know, although the Olympics are a major sports event around the world, many countries hope to get the right to host the Olympics to promote this country to the world. But there is another thing that you may not be  It is very clear that the Olympic Games is simply a money-burning machine. Do you know how much money Germany lost in the 1972 Munich Olympics? It was a total of 600 million U.S. dollars. Do you know how much it lost in the 1976 Montreal Olympics? 1 billion U.S. dollars, of course.  The Olympic Games in Moscow have not yet been held next year. I don¡¯t know how much the loss will be, but the result is definitely a loss. So now the government is both afraid of the Olympic Games and I have received reliable news that the US government has decided not to provide any financial assistance to the Los Angeles Olympic Games.  If there is no government assistance, the result can be imagined that all the citizens of Los Angeles will go bankrupt, you know? So now the Olympic preparation team is planning to find a private company to host the Los Angeles Olympics." Reagan was talking excitedly.  He was interrupted by Wang Wei on the side.

    "Ronald, do you mean to let me host the Los Angeles Olympics?" Reagan's narration made Wang Wei finally recall the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. According to Wang Wei's memory, the Los Angeles Olympics were indeed hosted by a private party.  , and ???This Olympics seems to be the first time that New China has sent a delegation to participate in the Olympics.

    What¡¯s more important is that according to Wang Wei¡¯s memory, the Olympic Games were a great success. Not only did they not lose any money, they actually earned US$225 million.

    These memories made Wang Wei's heart beat faster. If he could host a private Olympics, he wouldn't make any money even if he didn't accompany him.  Wang Wei feels that this is a very dazzling page in his life.  Besides, I still have a set of business strategies in my mind that will ensure a steady profit.

    After listening to Wang Wei's words, Reagan nodded and said: "That's what I mean. Whether you want to take over or not depends on what you want. After all, the previous Olympic Games were all losses."

    After hearing what Reagan said, Wang Wei immediately replied: "Yes, why not? But I am not an American. Do I have this qualification?"

    Regarding Wang Wei's question, Reagan shook his head and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about that. The selection conditions have been determined. They are between 40 and 50 years old, have lived in the Los Angeles area, love sports, and have experience in economic management and management."  International affairs and other aspects of experience are not required to be a U.S. citizen.¡±

    After listening to Reagan¡¯s words, Wang Wei frowned and said, ¡°But there are some conditions that I don¡¯t meet, such as age.¡±

    "As long as you agree to host it, these issues are not a problem. After all, the rules are set by people, right? The most important thing is to have money. As long as you have enough funds to host it, even if you defected from the Soviet Union, I think the committee member  They will all consider you! After all, America is a tolerant country, isn't it?" At this point, Reagan winked at Wang Wei and made a meaningful expression.

    "Okay, Ronald, I think I've been convinced by you, you are a hero of Los Angeles!" Wang Wei thought for a moment and said.

    "He's also your friend, isn't he?" Reagan said innocently.

    "Then this thing depends on you!"

    ¡°It¡¯s just a test of my hard work over the past three years!¡±
