rebirth of change

Richard Cotter's fainting determined that the press conference could no longer continue. Although this behavior allowed him to temporarily escape the verbal criticism of the reporters, it did not give him points, but detracted from them.The reporters felt that Richard Cotter fell to the ground in a panic when he was unable to answer the question. This was a sign of guilt. This sudden move made more people believe that he was indeed involved. , not that he was aloof, as he himself said.

In the news that night, there were all kinds of rhetoric, which were basically unfavorable to Richard Cotter. Even if someone didn't say anything clearly, their attitude was obviously skeptical.It can be said that the form is becoming more and more unfavorable to Kurt.

However, Kurt is also a politician who has been in power for several years. He has been elected for several years, and there are still many supporters. At night, two different groups of people appeared in front of the Prime Minister's Office. Chad Cotter broke his promise and betrayed the interests of the public.

The other team is supporters, they cheer for Richard Cotter in front of the Chancellery.In the past few years, it is not that everyone has not benefited. This is not objective. There are always some people who have obtained a lot of actual benefits from the people in power due to various relationships. These people see that Kurt is "tired" If you fall down, of course you have to come and express yourself.

There is a famous saying that as many people like you, there will be as many people who hate you.To a certain extent, this sentence is very reasonable and conforms to the objective reality, and Kurt has received such treatment at this time.

It's a pity that Kurt can't see the spirit of those supporters now. He just woke up in the hospital and is recuperating quietly. By his side, only Andrew Fisher is with him.The Japanese sent flowers of sympathy, but no representatives came to visit.

The current situation is not good for Richard Cotter, but it also threatens the interests of the Japanese, and they are also placed on the wind blowing together.Since the morning, many reporters have asked to interview them, but these Japanese people did not accept interviews, and all of them stayed behind closed doors.

Although the interests of the Japanese are also threatened, after all, a big piece of fat that they can eat immediately is gone for the time being.However, their perspective is not the same as that of Richard Cotter. This matter is related to them, but to a certain extent they are not standing in the center of the vortex. No matter what they stand up to explain, it will have a futile effect , unless after aligning the caliber with Kurt.

"Fischer,...how is the situation outside now?" Richard Cotter spoke with no more confidence, and looked very weak.

"The news about your press conference has been coming out one after another, which is basically not good for us, but a lot of supporters have increased at the gate of the Prime Minister's Office. They hope that you can return to work as soon as possible," Andrew Fisher said succinctly replied.

"I didn't expect that I would... Hey, but it's obvious that someone deliberately messed up this matter. The more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong." After sorting out the process of the press conference, Kurt had to Out of this understanding.

"It should be, otherwise the content of the negotiation would not be leaked, but it is not sure who is targeting us now." Andrew Fisher sat by Richard Cotter's bed, leaning on the edge of the bed to talk to Cotter. Te said.

"..." Richard Cotter took a deep breath, then stared at the wall lamp in thought for a while, and then said: "It must be Jeffrey Nash, it must be him, otherwise he He didn't say that to reporters, and he didn't tell me anything about it."

"Could it be him?" Fisher was a little skeptical, and quickly stated the reason for his doubts, "He doesn't know the details of the negotiation, how could it be him?".

"He did not participate in the later negotiations, but don't forget that he is the Minister of Commerce. If you want to get this information, it is possible. Except for him, I really can't think of anyone else who is so likely." Kurt is worthy of being an old politician, with strong judgment and perception.

"Perhaps, usually he cooperates well with us." Fisher's words were somewhat contradictory, which showed that he had not yet fully believed in Richard Cotter's judgment.

"Cough cough", Kurt coughed twice, and then said with difficulty and pain, "Fischer,...don't be blinded by your own eyes. The understanding is far deeper than yours. When it comes to rights and interests, don’t have too much hope for other feelings. You must remember this, otherwise, the road ahead will be bad. Go down."

"I remember, what we do next, we have to find a way to save the situation, otherwise, the development of the matter will be difficult to deal with", Andrew Fisher didn't want to talk about that issue with Kurt, and immediately changed the topic Back to the topic.

Fisher was inferior in strategy. He had thought of a lot of countermeasures, but he quickly cut them off by himself.When he came to the hospital, besides condolences, another important purpose was to seek a new solution from Kurt.Fisher has always had a sense of dependence on Richard Cotter. Most things are made by Richard Cotter and he executes them. Perhaps this is why Cotter chose him as his successor. reason.

"Have the Japanese done anything?" Kurt did not answer Fisher's question, but turned to the other side and asked.

"They didn't show anything. After you fainted and was hospitalized, they just sent someone to deliver this bouquet of flowers, and then they stayed behind closed doors," Fisher said, pointing to a large and beautiful bouquet of flowers beside the hospital bed. , and then with a solemn expression, "I called Da Muguang, and he did not object to your opinion, nor did he clearly say how much support he had. I calculated that if they want to win the November election, they have to You need to spend three to five billion dollars, and you have to appear healthy and healthy at every election site."

"I will recover soon and leave the hospital. Don't worry, I will do my best to help you run for the election. As for the Japanese side, they may be worried about getting into trouble. After I am discharged from the hospital, I will persuade them to come up with a sum of money as soon as possible. I'll let you control the operation. Even if it's not for us, they will pay the money for themselves," Richard Cotter said confidently, as if he had already recognized the face of the Japanese.

In fact, for some people, the more familiar you are with him, maybe the less you understand him in turn.The so-called darkness under the lamp is the same principle. After people are too familiar with each other, they will become paralyzed, and some clear actions will not be discovered, otherwise the saying will not be "bystanders know".

"What is Nash doing?" Richard Cotter asked about Jeffrey Nash's recent situation.

"Where do I have time to care about him now, but I didn't find any unexpected behaviors from him. Since he stopped negotiating with those Hong Kong people, he has started to commute normally. Many reporters went to him in the afternoon. I heard that he None of them were interviewed, and they hid in the office alone." Fisher said that he had no time to care about Nash's actions, but judging from his answer, he still knew a lot about Nash.

"Haven't those Hong Kong people left yet?" With Fisher's words, Kurt thought of Chen Kangjie and the others.

"Probably not yet? I haven't heard the news that they have left Perth," Fisher replied with some uncertainty.

Ever since the cooperation with Nash was reached, Chen Kangjie and the others have kept a low profile, and they didn't have much time to show a high profile in the past two days, and they are currently advancing the plan step by step.

Richard Cotter didn't speak again, and leaned against the pillow without saying a word. Fisher didn't know what he was thinking at this moment.

After a while, Fisher saw that Kurt hadn't spoken, so he said to himself: "Mr. Kurt, I think you should run this year's election. The current situation requires you to preside over the overall situation. I think it is difficult for me to get Party recommendation".

I don't know if Fisher's words were out of temptation or because he was clear-headed.What Fisher may be worried about is not whether he can be nominated as a candidate by the party. What he may be worried about is that the current situation of public opinion is difficult to win the election.

No matter which country you are in, if you want to stand out in politics, you should become a candidate of a certain party. If you rely on yourself alone, very few independent candidates can win.This is because the election is a huge project, and only by consolidating the forces within the party can we do a good job in organizing and mobilizing.On the other hand, each political party has its own political inclinations and propositions. Voters can easily accept this long-term accumulation of consciousness, but it is difficult to judge a person's ideological direction, so most politicians will belong to a certain political party. Party members are serving the political party themselves, and at the same time they are using the power of the party to help them realize their ambitions and ideas.

Of course, a single person’s thinking cannot go against the direction of the party he belongs to, otherwise he will be eliminated. This means that the political party has a certain degree of binding force on the individual.

"You don't have to worry about this. Western Australia is the only local government that our Liberal Party is currently in power. Mr. Lawrence has just taken over the chairmanship of the party. He wants to make a comeback and select a prime minister. This requires our strong support. A few years ago, Lawrence was once Get rid of the party chairmanship. This time he comes up. Many people think that he will only play a transitional role. If he does not support you as a candidate, he will worry that we will lag behind, so that he will definitely lose to the Labor Party", as the only high-ranking member of the party in charge of a local government, Richard Cotter still has great influence in the party, but this kind of self-righteous arrogance is likely to bring him trouble.

While Richard Cotter was discussing with Fisher, Chen Kangjie and the others also discussed meeting Lawrence with Nash.
