rebirth of change

Ouyang Zhenhua cooperated with Lawrence and Jeffrey Nash in Australia, and the situation was getting closer and closer to them.

Lawrence, as the leader of the party, is a natural candidate for the big position launched by the party.Originally, his approval rate was not high, but inspired by his series of economic slogans, coupled with Mingtong Investment Company's support, Lawrence's approval rate has risen considerably, and many farmers have expressed their willingness to Vote for Lawrence, who they see as one of the rare politicians who has translated concern for farmers and herdsmen into action.

Mingtong Investment Company was called by Ouyang Zhenhua. Hongyuan Investment has decided to invest in the iron ore located on both sides of the Ashburton River, so it is a bit unsuitable to invest in Australian agriculture, so Mingtong Investment was recruited to cooperate. .In addition to the tension of the campaign, Lawrence also took time to have a meeting with representatives of Mingtong Investment Company with the participation of reporters.

Richard Cotter is now on the defensive everywhere. When he learned that Nash's candidacy was the result of Lawrence's support, he wanted to use his influence in the party to hinder Lawrence. Unfortunately, he couldn't get away. , because Nash has caused him a lot of trouble in Western Australia.Nash is busy every day giving speeches in various schools, communities, and companies, and even appeared on the street several times.

The election campaign has already started in full swing, all gods and princes have jumped out, who cares so much.

Kurt wanted to discuss some matters with Oki Hikaru, but he was not there, and he was trapped in China and Japan, which made Kurt's campaign progress always slow.

Under the pressure of internal and external troubles, Richard Cotter didn't care so much. He listened to Fisher's advice and came out to run for governor himself. Only in this way can he maintain a greater chance of winning.

Although Kurt is suffering everywhere at this time, don't forget that he is still the governor and has a lot of available public resources. This is an important factor for many people in power to be re-elected successfully.Moreover, Kurt has been in politics for a long time and has rich experience. In Western Australia, he still has many supporters.He came out, of course, more confident than Fisher, especially when facing Jeffrey Nash.

In this gubernatorial election, Western Australia has four candidates, two of whom are from other parties, and the other two are Kurt and Nash, who belong to the same political party. Such examples are relatively rare in previous experience.Under normal circumstances, a political party will not launch multiple candidates, because not only will it not form a double insurance, but it will cause internal disunity and share votes, so that other competitors can reap the benefits.Since political party candidates are elected by the political party, there will be no major conflicts between their campaign philosophy and the party’s program. What is shown is only a difference in personal tactics and operations, and many people in the public are hard-core supporters of the political party. Or, this group of people don't mind who is running for election in the party, anyway, as long as it is a candidate of this party, he will support it.Therefore, once there are two candidates, a certain differentiation will inevitably form.

But this time the situation is special. Nash is the candidate strongly recommended by Lawrence, while Cotter is an important figure in the party and is currently the governor. Therefore, many people support him as the candidate, which has caused this kind of "same root and mutual conflict" situation.

People who participate in political campaigns are the most expressive and energetic during the competitive stage.As soon as Kurt jumped out after careful preparation, his sophisticated political skills and excellent expressive skills were displayed.

Kurt sharply refuted the previous accusations against him one by one.The biggest evidence he presented was that besides negotiating with the Japanese side, the state government was also in contact with Hongyuan Investment in an open and aboveboard manner, and stated that it would finally use bidding to decide which party to hand over the project to.

In terms of iron ore investment, Hongyuan only contacted Kurt once, and BHP Billiton did all the other things.They are authentic local enterprises, and it is more convenient to do things.What's more, Hongyuan invested a lot of money. To get benefits, BHP Billiton should also invest a lot.

The side that worked with Kurt was kind of lame.In the past, Hikari Oki took the lead, but now that he is not around, Rio Tinto cannot take over immediately, and the progress of investment negotiations is very slow, which creates the suspicion that Kurt is procrastinating.

For this reason, the "Australian" also published an article "Should we wait until after the election?" "The allusive article.The article said, "...economic development is a matter of urgency, especially for large projects, which can bring benefits and benefit the local people one day earlier if they are started and completed one day earlier. But some people deliberately I don’t know why a very clear project has been deliberately delayed? Isn’t it a simple matter to choose a partner based on the price in the market? Could it be that there are some inside stories that have not been discussed?”.

This article did not name anyone from the beginning to the end, but combined with their previous series of reports, anyone with a discerning eye knows who it is talking about.

If this is still a bit ambiguous, then Nash's words are clear.As a political candidate, you have considerable freedom of speech, especially when answering voters' questions, you can say everything you want.

At an election rally, a voter asked Jeffrey Nash this question.

"Thank you. The reason why it is still pending is that Mr. Governor has his considerations and arrangements. But in my personal opinion, I think this is a fairly simple matter. Since there are investors who are willing to participate in this project at market prices , then it is easy to choose. I represented the state government in open negotiations with Hong Kong companies before, and the spirit of cooperation is like this. It is a pity that I was fired, otherwise, maybe the contracts have been signed by now. I think that as a government agency and Government officials should have a clear judgment and efficient work efficiency. Only in this way can we do more for the people. Otherwise, the term of office is only a few years, and it will pass in a blink of an eye, leaving us There is not much time to do practical things. Based on this, I bravely stood up for the election, hoping to have more space and more time to make greater contributions to everyone, and I will never do nothing..." , Jeffrey Nash stood on the campaign podium built for him, waving his arms and said passionately.

Whether it is explicit or covert criticism of Richard Cotter, the key is not for Nash's victory in the election.Nash didn't regard Kurt as his biggest competitor at all. Instead, what he had to deal with were the other two candidates from other political parties.Nash has a trump card for Kurt. Only once the news of Kurt's cancer is announced, Kurt will only have the fate of withdrawing. At that time, most of Kurt's votes will fall into his pocket. Jeffrey Nash middle.

They do so many things, but the key is to force Kurt to bid early.Speaking of which, Ouyang Zhenhua and the others are very strong. If the bidding is really called for, they won't be afraid of anyone.But then again, there are unpredictable things in the sky, and everything is changing rapidly. Before there is no certainty, everything can happen.Only in the absence of Da Muguang, the means of bidding immediately can be used to expand the chance of winning to almost [-]%.Besides, many Japanese companies are suffering losses at this time. If they don't take advantage of their illness to kill them, when will they wait?Chen Kangjie generally would not let go of things that could be taken advantage of, and Ouyang Zhenhua, who had been with Chen Kangjie for a long time, also learned the same method.

"Sir, is it time to make a decision early? The current public opinion and public opinion are getting more and more unfavorable to you. If you don't make a decision early, it will be more and more unfavorable to you. We can't let the situation continue to spread." , in Kurt's Prime Minister's Office, Fisher is negotiating countermeasures with him. As Kurt's assistant, Fisher is responsible for collecting information from the outside world. At this time, he is making suggestions to Kurt.

"How do I make a decision?" When he was campaigning outside, Kurt was in high spirits, but at this moment he was frowning, and he didn't even look him in the face in response to Fisher's words.

"Of course it is time to invite bids. Nash and the media have obviously come together, and quickly ignited the public grievances that you have just calmed down a few days ago. Only by conducting public bidding as soon as possible can the The opponent's scheme has been defeated," Fisher said softly beside Kurt, half-bowed.

"It's not time now, Da Muguang is not here, what should we do? That guy is really, the situation here is so urgent, he never returned. Before he left, he said he would come back in two days, and now it has been more than ten days. I didn’t see him come back, and if we act hastily now, we have no chance of winning at all. If we have no chance of winning, what will you do in the future?” Kurt seemed a little helpless.

"I think, if you are re-elected, you should be able to find a way. If we don't make a decisive decision now, once we lose the government, you can't win, then even if we get the contract, the benefits that we may not be able to get will be lost." Fisher's political wisdom is still there, but it is sometimes emotional.

Richard Cotter tapped the desk with three fingers in the middle of his right hand, staring brightly at the portrait of the Queen of England hanging on the opposite wall, thinking.

He has to make a balance between political rights and economic interests.In fact, it can be seen from Fisher's words that political rights are still much more useful than economic interests. This logic has the same consensus in both the East and the West.As long as political power is in hand, one can realize the interests one needs through it, otherwise, the interests in one's hands are very likely to be taken away by others borrowing political power.

"Okay...just do it like this, find a way to inform Hikari Oki that we will invite bids in three days, and ask him and Rio Tinto to do their best to get the project." After some weighing and thinking, Richard De Cotter finally made a difficult decision.

He still wants to defuse the unfavorable situation before the election. The iron ore project on the Ashburton River has now become a focus and obstacle in the competition between Cotter and Nash.Prior to this, the initiative had always been in Kurt's hands, but since Nash's fall, the initiative has left Kurt and completely fell in the opposite direction.
