The Era of Emerald

"Mr. Berezovsky, can you tell me now the purpose of inviting me to Moscow?" After entering the room, Zhuang Minge immediately asked the godfather in front of him.

"No hurry, let's talk about other things first, we still have a lot of time... By the way, you will rest here tonight. Although this club is not very famous, its service level is second to none in Russia. .”

"But the Fiorentina club still has a lot of things waiting for me..."

Zhuang Mingge wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Berezovsky:

"Hehe, boy Antonio, you're still too young. Young people are aggressive and dare to do things. It's a very good advantage. It's also a place where we old people can't compare with you, but..." Berezzo Fusky paused for a while, and said word by word, "Some things can be solved by taking a vigorous and decisive approach, no, it will be solved."

"Then... good." Zhuang Mingge saw the other party say this, and even called himself "Boy Antonio".I had no choice but to sit down and chat with Berezovsky about everything.

About two hours later, Abu, who had previously excused himself to go to the toilet, knocked lightly on the door, then returned to the room, and said to Berezovsky: "Mr. Boris, now apart from us, Everyone else has left the club, and Mr. Gusinski asked me to tell you before leaving that he hopes to have a detailed discussion on Mr. President's campaign strategy tomorrow."

"Hmph, I knew that these guys would only take advantage of the loopholes of the law, and they are useless when they need their advice." Berezovsky snorted disdainfully, and said to Zhuang Mingge.

"Antonio, I heard that the former Prime Minister of your country, Mr. Silvio Berlusconi, did not have a very good public support when he first ran for election?"

"That's right." Zhuang Mingge recalled for a while, and said with certainty.

"Then Antonio, can you recall Mr. Berlusconi's strategy for running for the Prime Minister of Italy at that time?" The long chat before made the sense of distance between the two sides not obvious. , finally threw out the topic of this conversation inadvertently.

Zhuang Mingge, who was not slow to respond, shook his head lightly, and replied: "That's different. Although Berlusconi reversed the situation and was elected successfully, it is almost impossible to replicate his successful election experience, because the people here in Russia The situation is much worse than in Italy."

"Is it because of the difference in approval ratings? I remember that in the six months before the general election, Berlusconi's popular approval ratings had risen to a terrifying 70.00% or more. Am I right, Antonio?"

"Yes, at that time, Berlusconi was appointed as the new Prime Minister of Italy. It can be said that everyone expected it... But, Mr. Berezovsky, there seems to be no comparison between the elections in Italy and Russia... I heard Abramovich say that However, Mr. Yeltsin's popular support rate seems to be a bit low." Zhuang Mingge thought to himself that people who care about politics are different from themselves, and this Russian oligarch obviously knows a lot more specific data than he knows.

"It's not a little low, but very low! In less than a year, Yeltsin's approval rate is less than [-]%, which makes us supporters very worried." Berezovsky said Yeltsin's extremely bad election situation.

Yeltsin's popular support rate is less than 50.00%?Even people who are not good at mathematics can figure out how insurmountable there is between this poor [-]% and the [-]% who can be elected as the President of Russia in just a few months. The chasm!

Damn it, God, are you kidding me?Zhuang Minge believed that there was absolutely no need for Berezovsky to adulterate such figures.

At this time, Zhuang Mingge could only sigh that he didn't have too many other things in his memory except football. He only knew that the Russian presidential election in a few months would be extremely fiercely contested, but he couldn't imagine that as the current Russian president Yeltsin, his current election situation would be so bad.

Although he is not interested in politics, Zhuang Mingge, who often reads newspapers, still knows some basic attitudes towards the Russian election in the Western world.

No wonder those Western commentators have paid less and less attention to Yeltsin recently, while the attention and positive reports on another presidential candidate, Ri Ernovsky, have indeed increased day by day.

What a real society.

"Antonio, can you think about why Berlusconi can get the support of so many domestic voters?" This is the purpose of Berezovsky. I can't know the details of those campaigns by relying on media reports alone, and naturally I can't get any good ideas from them.

And people like Zhuang Mingge, who has some relationship with the Berlusconi family (referring to Zhuang Mingge's identity as the "tai, son, party, party, leader"), may be able to tell him some unknown inside stories.

"Well, on this issue, I think that apart from the policies he promotes, the more important thing is that Mr. Berlusconi will give voters an impression of being close to the people."

"Oh, how do you say that?"

"Well, then I have to talk about football. His status as the chairman of AC Milan makes Italians who regard football as the number one sport feel very cordial, and has won countless votes for him!"

Italy is a country with a very good level of football, and it is also a modern country that largely uses football elements as cultural symbols and spiritual totems (similar to it are Spain and Portugal, which are also "Latinized" European countries).There is even a joke that specifically describes Italy's "except for art and football, Italy can't do anything well".

This also reflects the status of football in Italy from another aspect, and it also makes the stars have a huge appeal among the Italian people.

Zhuang Mingge, who had thought about it for a while, recalled the miraculous experience of Lao Bei being elected as the Italian Prime Minister a year ago. The reason why he was able to create such a miracle must be the "support" of many Italian stars.

For example, the captain of Inter Milan, Bergomi, said, "He (Lao Bei) is a very wise leader", which directly brought a lot of votes.

Not to mention the Italian media's interview with Milan captain Baresi. At that time, the old captain just said cautiously: "He is a very good club owner, and I believe he will also be a good Italian player." Prime Minister", it is said that this caused Lao Bei's public support rate to soar in a short period of time.

Zhuang Mingge, who had read similar news in an article before, felt that such a thing was incredible.However, after experiencing the passion of the Italians for football since time travelling, they dare not underestimate this almost abnormal power.

Perhaps many Italians who were not interested in the prime minister's election at the beginning would have such an idea: what an honest player Baresi is, it is rare for him to help others win votes, if we don't support it, it will be fake Are you a fan yet?As a result, Lao Bei relied on football to be successfully elected as the Prime Minister of Italy.

In Zhuang Minge's view, Berezovsky also wanted Yeltsin to copy Lao Bei's road to success. After all, aside from purely political things, most people always subconsciously think about successful experiences. To "copy" infinitely.

"So, what exactly should we do?"

"Mr. Berezovsky, I think you can..."
