Chapter 311 visit the White House
The vehicles arrived in downtown Washington DC.
The White House was in sight.
Looking at the two young men looking at each other kindly, Neil Bush suddenly said gently: "That's right. I forgot to tell you."
"Yeah?"
"George will pick you up at the White House gate later. When you are welcomed, there will be reporters and photographers surrounding you. You should smile a little brighter."
Abel couldn't help but frown at Neil Bush. "Don't look at me like that. Even though it will hurt you, it will help you more." Neil Bush quietly said:
"This will let all Americans and even people around the world know that you saved the US stock market."
Abel knew what Neil Bush meant.
"But in reality, I have deployed at most a tenth of my force there," he said softly.
This time, on the surface, US stocks have begun to recover.
It seems that Abel's $90 billion support played a huge role.
But in reality, when Abel went out and bought the fund in a big way, he wasn't the only one taking action. There are many idiots in this world, but there are no idiots in finance.
When you are aware of the power that the White House held at that time because of this particular event.
It is much larger than the previous ones and also has the idea of a white house.
The visionary giants of Wall Street chose to compromise.
Anyway, even if they don't compromise, they will still come in later. Because it's really profitable.
When Abel entered the arena, many people also entered the arena.
Later.
The entire Wall Street started buying money one after another, which was the real reason for the recovery of the entire US stock market.
On the other hand, the current total market value of the US stock market is about 10 trillion US dollars. Not even 1% of Abel's $90 billion.
Including Buffett and their funds combined, that number is only about 1.3%.
These funds may affect certain stocks, but how can they affect the market as a whole?
So, in fact, the amount of money entering the market to buy funds at that time amounted to more than 500 billion US dollars.
A large amount of capital poured into the market and all of these major stocks stopped falling and increased in price. With the entry of large funds, the market was stimulated, and leek's confidence did not completely collapse but recovered slightly.
Moreover, this time it is not really the Great Depression, but just a big shock caused by a super black swan.
Even if you ignore it, you can slowly recover from it.
This is because the recovery rate will be very slow.
will have a certain negative impact on George's control of power. This is the reason why the White House was in a hurry, even directly paying for relief money, because George wanted to seize this opportunity.
There are many reasons why the US stock market is stable.
So if you want to share the credit, Abel can at most get a tenth.
Maybe it's too much.
Because even if he doesn't, the rest of Wall Street will eventually. A day or two late at most.
After he entered the arena, the White House gave him almost all the credit.
Now that the settlement of the First Army has been completed, the commander-in-chief personally welcomed him, and the media also followed him for photos and interviews.
With many such measures, there is no doubt that George Bush is trying to turn himself into a god.
He tries to create a financial god in his office. The god of finance can then also be considered a member of the shrub family.
For George, this can be considered both beneficial and harmless.
But for Abel, this is both beneficial and harmful.
The good news is that this will allow it to serve everyone in the stock and financial markets in the future.
Will have credibility that Buffett didn't have before and will be able to save his corrupt Sempra Energy character. will allow him to have great influence in the United States, and even become an American capitalist, at least one of the symbols of finance capitalists.
But there are also many disadvantages.
The downside is that it won't be able to do the same things as Sampla Energy in the future.
Otherwise, he will not only ruin his own character but George's as well.
Even if the commander changes in the future, he will not easily do this kind of thing again. When operating on the US stock market in the future, it can only use honest methods.
Like Buffett is now, maybe even more serious than Buffett.
Because then.
His every investment move will be noticed, studied and observed by countless people.
Furthermore, it cannot fail, and its failure would to some extent symbolize the failure of American finance. In all aspects, the advantages and disadvantages are basically the same.
Abel had a hard time making a choice, but now George Bush has made the choice for him.
Because at that time the First Army was arriving at the main gate of the White House.
There was a large group of people in front of the door.
George, who was waiting for him with a smile on his face and many journalists around him. Abel smiled bitterly and glanced at Neil Bush in front of him.
Then he half stood up in the car, turned to hug little Laura and kissed her passionately.
Your uncle and father cheated me, I want to get some profit back from you!
Little Laura was kissed by him for more than ten seconds before letting go.
"I'm about to be ruined by you!" It looked like he was saying it to little Laura, but he was actually saying it to Neil Bush.
Neil Bush had a smile on his face, he didn't care that his daughter had just been "bullied" by him right in front of him. Because Neil Bush felt Abel was expressing his views, Abel was willing to cooperate with the White House.
In fact, that's true, because things have come to this point.
Abel's idea was simple: if you become a god, you become a god.
I rely on my talent to make a living and I don't need inside information, so what are you afraid of?
The problem is that in the future we will only make waves in the international market and not play in the US stock market. Or just play around with value investing in the US stock market.
In any case, over the next two decades, with the exception of the 2007-2008 wave, the US stock market will be on a crazy upward trend.
Thinking of this, Abel opened the car door and got out alone.
He greeted George Bush and others standing at the main entrance.
When Abel got out of the car, countless flashing lights flashed. Luckily, it was now midday, when the sun is hottest and the light is at its best.
The appearance of the flash is of an auxiliary nature only and is unlikely to injure the eyes.
Smiling, Abel rearranged his appearance and clothes for the first time under the watch of the camera and countless eyes.
Then he smiled and walked towards George Bush. George Bush also smiled and waited for Abel to quickly come.
George took two steps forward, smiled and reached out to Abel, shook his hand, hugged him and whispered in his ear: "Good job, Abel."
"What can I do?" Abel replied in a low voice. "I'm not hurt!"
Abel was about to respond, but George let him go, so he stuffed a piece of paper into his pocket.
George then smiled and opened his arms, with a specially trained and impeccable smile, welcoming Abel to the White House.
Then, naturally, under pressure from the staff, a large number of reporters gathered in front of the two of them.
The interview begins.
Before the interview began, Abel took the opportunity to glance at the paper in his pocket. It reads in English: [When I greet you, please stand still. »
"Hello my fellow citizens. Today, our fellow citizens, our lives and the freedoms we cherish were deliberately attacked by KBists."
"The fire was raging a few days ago and I think many people still remember it."
"But at that time I had to remind him that it was on fire. It is burning on another battlefield in America."
"That is"
Remove 500 words.
"It's true that this gentleman is standing before us, this Mr. Abel Smith! He saved our stock market, he saved the wallets of 30 million of our fellow citizens. He saved America from bankrupt. He was the one who prevented a terrible one." A disaster is happening, happening in another realm!"
"It's Mr. Abel Smith."
"He and a lot of Americans know him. »
"He is next to me now…"
"Here, as the leader of the United States, I want to pay tribute to him on behalf of all Americans ~"
Speaking of excitement, George Bush bent down to greet Abel in front of a series of cameras. Abel took a deep breath and didn't move to help her. .
George's show is over. .
Then, of course, it was Abel's turn. .
Abel didn't know what to say now.
He was a bit angry when the brothers George and Neil knew there would be such a battle but they didn't have any speeches to read in advance.
This forces Abel to improvise now.
Fortunately, Abel is not a young Chinese newcomer after all. He is already an actor with certain acting skills after a long period of experience in the American capitalist world.
When everyone's eyes, the focus of every scene and the microphones were all focused on him.
Abel suddenly got excited, raised his right hand and shouted into the camera and microphone:
"God bless America!"
He spoke loudly and clearly, slowly but very clearly to everyone: "At this time, I only hope that all of you, along with me, God will bless America! »
Translated into Chinese: [The big man just read it to Mr. Su and his father blessed us in America! ]
The reporters were stunned for a moment, but George reacted faster.
The White House owner immediately raised his hand and shouted with him: "Oh my God, America!"
Seeing the Great General was like that. In front of the camera, everyone can only scream together. Moments later, the voice "Papa Su bless America" rang out outside the main entrance of the White House.
Half an hour later.
In a small room in the White House.
Last time, Abel and the bush were one big family, chatting and having breakfast together.
Abel complained directly to George and Neil: "I want to do this. You should give me a speech first! I almost made a mistake!"
Neil Bush smiled and said nothing.
"Hahaha~"
George laughed: "But you did very well. It was better than I imagined. If I really gave you the speech, it probably wouldn't be as good!"
The effect on stage is very good, everyone just reads it anyway.
The scene was recorded by the camera, and the effects that appeared afterwards were also very good. George's team was full of praise and said it could be much better than they initially imagined.
According to the team's original idea, they wanted Abel to be a little clumsy, then George would save.
This will make George's image more three-dimensional and wise, more like a gentle and capable leader.
That's sacrificing Abel's image a bit.
Unexpectedly, Abel did not directly speak but made a lot of money like this. This then improves efficiency, George is naturally happier.
"Alright." George patted Abel's shoulder and said gently:
"I didn't inform you this time. They insisted. I couldn't hit them, and I wouldn't hurt you, so I agreed." But please believe that there will never be a next time. If so, it certainly will. How about letting you know in advance?"
George Bush has no other skills but he is very friendly.
Those who knew him even said that he was the gentlest White House leader in history.
Additionally, because of their business, he and his family are relatively China-friendly towards Americans.
George is not that kind of person. Abel didn't know, but in the current situation, George's attitude and tone made him quite comfortable.
Moreover, it really didn't do any harm to him, so Abel nodded and said:
"I hope there won't be a next time. If there's a next time, I'll vote when I'm 45. At the same time, I'll still do this with Barbara and Jenna's children!"
"Hahaha~"
George laughed, Neil and little Laura next to him also laughed.
Abel's kind humor filled the small room with joy for a moment. George couldn't help but laugh, patting Abel on the shoulder again: "I really hope one day. I really hope I'm still alive that day. But for now, I will be busy. After this day, I am now busier than anyone!"
Abel nodded: "Understandable."
George smiled and patted him on the shoulder then said to Neil:
"Dear Neil, please take your son-in-law and daughter for a walk around the White House. I'll come back later and we'll have dinner together tonight."
Neil agrees. George finally smiled and left the small room with many people in tow.
Only a few members of the Secret Service remained in the small room next door, including Marcus and Hannah Catherine.
and Abel and three others.
"How are you? There are still a few hours until nightfall. Do you want to go for a walk? This is different from the situation where ordinary people come to visit us. We can go to many places. »
"And"
Neil Shrub smiled at Abel: "Maybe you can really live there in the future, but it's not necessary."
Abel thinks that's not the case.
In the future, if Alex wins the championship, as the only son, it is natural for him to live here!
Neil Shrub may also appear in the future if successful.
As my own son-in-law, I can also live there openly. If neither of those things can be done, isn't there a backup MAGA king?
At this point, you can also find a way to live there.
Even now, if he wants to live there.
George would probably agree, but Abel himself would feel embarrassed.
So step aside and look for the best. Wait another twenty-five years.
If the United States still existed at that time, I think it would be possible to live there directly.
So let's take a look first!
In fact, ordinary Americans, even legal tourists abroad.
At a specific time, after request and security screening, you can also enter the White House for tours and tours.
But there are very few places to see, most are outside. Unlike Abel now.
It is led by the commander-in-chief's younger brother.
Accompanying her was the great commander's niece.
He was then protected by the Grand Commander's Secret Service.
Come visit this white sandstone house. This location is located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC.
Including the peripheral area, it has a total area of more than 73,000 square meters and consists of three parts: the main building and the east and west wings.
The main building is the most eye-catching with its width of 51.51 meters and depth of 25.75 meters.
The ground floor has a diplomatic reception room, library, map room, porcelain room, jeweler's room and offices of managers...
This eastern part of the platform is called the national platform. The first floor has five main halls, from West to East are the National Banquet Hall, Red Hall, Green Hall, Green Hall and East Hall.
The second floor is where George's family currently lives, mainly including the Lincoln Room, Queen's Room, Treaty Room, Ladies' Sitting Room and Yellow Oval Room.
The Commander-in-Chief's famous oval office is located inside the West Wing.
In addition, South Lawn and Rose Garden are also famous landscapes.
The main tourist attractions that open to the outside are usually the main building, the south lawn, and the Rose Garden. The place where Abel walked with his bush family last time, is the south lawn.
Minus some offices that even Neil Bush and Abel probably couldn't get into.
In fact, there weren't many places Abel could visit, mainly concentrated in the George family's main room and living room on the second floor.
It is difficult for him to go to other locations, because these locations are related to national secrets.
You can enter but it is not necessary. There is no need to wear a flashy suit.
In other words, the places that Abel could actually visit, including the interior, were only one-third at most.
In the end, he just walked a short distance. Feeling bored, he simply went up to the George family's living room on the second floor.
George's wife, Laura Welsh Bush, had a very similar name to little Laura, and little Laura's two cousins were named Abel and little Laura. (end of this chapter)
