Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 1035 Influence From Top To Bottom

"Gentlemen and ladies! The Keynesianism advocated by the donkeys is naturally incompatible with us. Today this department will come to ask for trouble, and tomorrow that department will come to ask for trouble. How can life be as comfortable as it is now? All kinds of rules and regulations will be released for you. You have the ability, the market is so big, you can fight for it, grab it as you like! Isn't it?"

"To support Mr. Bush is to support the Republican Party, to support ourselves, and to support me, Carter Black! You also know that I am Mr. Bush's younger brother. If he can be re-elected, my life will be very comfortable, my life will be comfortable, I will make everyone comfortable. I promise here that as long as you go back and mobilize your employees to vote for Mr. Bush, I will give you 2 percentage points for all commercial loan interest rates in the future!"

Holding a wine glass, Carter, who was drunk and hazy, stood on the main seat, roaring passionately and inciting the emotions of the participants.

South-central Georgia is very large, and Carter's personal appeal is also different in different cities.The most appealing, naturally, are the two adjacent cities of Douglas and Pearson.

Although Carter's investment in the later period, including the focus of development, has been in Douglas, Pearson, who opened up the interconnection between the two cities in the early years, has benefited a lot.When the population of Douglas overflowed, it was mostly transferred to Pearson.Coupled with the development and construction of some supporting industries and facilities, the large and small traders in Pearson have enjoyed a lot of dividends overflowing from Douglas.

Facing Carter, the uncrowned king of Douglas, they would naturally not jump out and sing a different tune.But in cities farther away, the situation is different!

The presence of Black Flag Bank will indeed make them face a situation where they need to see Carter's face in terms of financing and other channels.But this kind of restraint, including infection, will be much less!

On the one hand, you can't get stuck randomly.Especially in the red-neck state where mountain cannons gather, if you go too far and cause public outrage, these people can really boycott you and collectively stop the loan from you!In other words, collectively kicking you out.
On the other hand, it is best to be able to obtain a loan nearby, but this does not mean that they cannot go to other places to choose another loan or financing partner.At the moment when the restrictions on the banking industry are becoming more and more open, the strength of local banks is also gradually losing.

The days of sitting at the counter like the second uncle and looking at loan applicants with scrutiny are gone!
Not to mention the commercial banks with the National Bank license, even savings banks, the range of loans that can be issued has already broken through the limit of 75 miles from the location of the bank.

Therefore, for people in these places, Carter can only play the good card and the soft card.

Invite guests to drink, eat and behead, and finally accept as a dog.
Basically from February, after returning to Georgia, Carter faced countless wine games.In addition to arranging grassroots propagandists, including hanging posters supporting the Republican Party and Lao Bu inside and outside all black flag banks, the really more efficient way is to communicate with these local business owners!
Even if it is a small factory with only five or six employees, once the factory owner is settled.These five or six votes are basically stable!And these five or six people, after returning home, may drive their wives or adult sons who have the right to vote, parents and so on to continue to vote!

And this model is also the so-called embodiment of American capital coercing politics.

Carter is no longer unfamiliar with this set.But if you want him to do something new, it's really not a good idea for a while
"Let's have some tea. It's going to be March in a week, so the running should be over, right?"

"Almost, except for Atlanta, Columbus, etc., where I didn't need to go, I basically traveled everywhere, no, I drank everything!"

Smiling and taking the hot tea from Benjamin, Carter held it in both hands and took a sip gently.

I don't feel it on weekdays, but after frequent drinking sessions, drinking such a sip of hot tea, the stomach-warming feeling is really refreshing and makes me want to groan.

"There is no need to worry about Atlanta. There are many big companies. Now deregulation is the best environment for them, and they don't want to ruin this situation! In the grassroots communities, the city circle is getting bigger, and people want to think about it." It’s hard to be unified. Compared with the guys who went to Atlanta, I’m already pretty good. In a small city, except for drinking a lot and then bleeding, things are easy to handle!”

Unlike the iron-red states of the future, Georgia can only be said to be a reddish state today.Fortunately for Jimmy Carter, a fellow countryman, the Great Depression has only passed ten years, and many Georgians still have memories.That's true, I was a little scared by the donkey!

Although the economic situation is not so good now, it depends on the comparison with when, right?At least it's much better than Jimmy Carter's era!Under the influence of this trend of thought, the publicity work in Georgia is actually not difficult to do.

Plus, like Carter said, small cities have their benefits!
There are few people, the voice is low, and there are not many foreigners.Most of them are basically old guns born and bred, and the voting is basically the same. See who others vote for, and follow whoever they vote for
As long as the bosses in these places are settled, the bosses mobilize the employees, and the employees mobilize the surrounding family and friends, it is easy to gather votes.This is an impossible situation in a metropolis like Atlanta!
The level of education is different. To put it bluntly, the citizens of Atlanta are much more capable of independent thinking than the citizens of these small cities.Every year there will be that kind of guy who everyone around him votes for a certain person, but he just thinks that person is not good and wants to vote for another person.And this kind of person is rare in small cities in the United States, and even many cities will not appear at all.

In addition, when attacking these small cities, Carter also has a natural advantage. Compared with Carter, who has direct economic relations with them, it is not easy for donkeys to attack in the same way.

"You are open-minded. I've heard that it's a lot to pay for two points at once!"

Sitting quietly beside Carter, Benjamin sighed as he looked at this grown-up guy:

"It's been ten years in a flash, you are a stranger now, and I can't recognize you at all!"

"Haha, I'm still me. What's the matter? Uncle Benjamin, there is a situation that I think I should communicate with you in advance. It's this year's general election. To be honest, even if my job is easy to do now, yes In fact, we are not very optimistic about Mr. Bush's re-election."

Noticing the "we" in Carter's words, Benjamin knew that those were a group of guys beyond his reach. After feeling that Carter had gradually become one of those people, Benjamin's thoughts returned to reality:

"You mean to say that the development may not be as smooth as before, right?"

"This is for sure. In terms of specific aspects, this year you can pay attention to the Democratic Party, a candidate named Bill Clinton, and listen to his speeches and ideas. Then judge the next step."
