?? Knowing the wrong can be corrected, the good is great! This old Chinese saying is also applicable in the United States. It is not terrible to do wrong, as long as you have a heart of repentance, God will forgive you!

​​

Bush Jr. can completely help him overcome his weakness by describing how he mustered up the courage to fight against alcohol, and how his family, especially his father, Mr. Bush Sr., gave him support and encouragement. Presumably such an inspirational story full of positive energy can help his father win the favor of a large number of voters.

​​

Alcohol abuse in the United States is often associated with domestic violence, and the victims of domestic violence are usually women. A person who has the courage to defeat alcoholism can definitely win the support of a large number of female voters. And if Bush Jr. didn't have the motive for a show, he wouldn't have to let his alcohol abstinence move appear in the news on newspapers and television.

​​

Li Xuan just didn't know whether the future Mr. President in front of him was simply standing up for his father this time, or whether he had begun to have greater ambitions. According to the information collected by Li Xuan, George W. Bush ran for the Texas House of Representatives as early as 1978, but he failed miserably by a narrow margin.

​​

After that, he seemed to lose interest in politics all of a sudden, and instead focused on business. Relying on the contacts of the Vice President's father and the support of wealthy people like Li Xuan, Bush has earned a small income over the years, and has accumulated a fortune of five or six million US dollars, which is enough to allow the whole family to enjoy a prosperous life.

​​

"Lee, are you interested in baseball? Have you considered acquiring a major league team?" Bush Jr. suddenly asked.

​​

Sports and entertainment are always the favorite topics in American daily chat. In the previous life, when Li Xuan was studying in the United States, in order to integrate into the circle of friends, he deliberately learned enough about baseball and rugby, two of the most popular sports in the United States. But to be honest, what he really likes is football, which is unfortunately not very popular in the United States.

​​

Acquire a professional baseball team. It can further consolidate Li Xuan's popularity in the United States, which is very important for foreigners like him. Because only if you often show your face in front of the American public will everyone gradually eliminate their rejection of you.

​​

"Which team?" Li Xuan asked noncommittally.

​​

"Texas Rangers! The Rangers' record in recent years has been very bad, and it has been below 50% for 15 consecutive years. The owner of the team intends to sell it. I plan to bring a few friends and set up a special investment company. Buy the Texas Rangers!" out his own plan.

​​

Li Xuan frowned. For him, if he wants to buy a team, the best choice is actually a team in San Francisco. For example, the San Francisco Giants, who played inextricably with the Los Angeles Dodgers in the middle of the game.

​​

Because Silicon Valley is the home base of the Oriental Group in the United States, in this way he can not only increase his influence in the San Francisco Bay Area. You can also provide benefits for your company's employees to build up everyone's morale.

​​

Li Xuan looked at Bush Jr. smiled and said, "George, you know that I'm not obsessed with baseball. I'd rather buy a Bay Area team, whether it's the Oakland Athletics or the San Francisco Giants. Or the NFL's San Francisco. 49 people, also a good choice!"

​​

"Buying a team requires timing. The Rangers' poor performance in recent years has affected the team's earnings, and the team's two owners just have financial problems, so they are willing to sell the team at a low price. And these professional teams in San Francisco have no plans to sell, if you want to get in, you have to pay a big price!" Bush Jr. was just a random question. But he soon found that Li Xuan did not seem to be reluctant to invest in the purchase of the team, so he immediately began to persuade.

​​

"What position are you going to take after taking over the Rangers, the general manager of the team?" Li Xuan asked with a little playfulness.

​​

The four major professional sports leagues in the United States. nfl, mlb, nba, nhl, the lowest value team also needs tens of millions of dollars. Compared to their high value, the return on capital invested in teams is actually not very high. Especially for some, losses are common.

​​

But for big cities like New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, even if the team loses money every year, there will still be many people to **** it up when it is transferred. On the one hand, these big cities are densely populated and have a huge number of potential fans. As long as the team can reverse its record, it will not worry about not being able to attract fans to watch the game.

​​

On the other hand, there are many billionaires in these big cities. Many rich people don't mind buying a team to play, even losing some money is perfectly acceptable. For example, with the support of the NBA league, Ballmer, the later president of Microsoft, spent 100 million dollars to forcibly buy the Clippers. This price has actually far exceeded the actual value of the Clippers.

​​

And Dallas, where the Texas Rangers are located, is one of the largest cities in the southern United States. Texas is the second most developed state after California among the fifty states in the United States. Dallas and Houston are the two most populous and economically developed cities in Texas.

​​

Li Xuan can fully guess that there are quite a few people who are willing to take over the Dallas Rangers. Bush's so-called cheap price is simply a joke! More importantly, in Li Xuan's memory, Bush was never a business wizard. Li Xuan doubts whether he can bring a struggling team out of the quagmire.

​​

But Li Xuan still decided to support Bush Jr., because he finally determined that the man in front of him, who was not very good at debating, especially not quick-witted, finally began to show his own ambitions.

​​

Li Xuan remembers another time and space. Bush did serve as general manager of the Texas Rangers for several years, which gave him a lot of media exposure. And in his years running the Texas Rangers the team had a good record. As a result, Bush gained lofty prestige in Texas.

​​

The Bush family was at a political low point after Bush Sr. lost his re-election bid in 1992. As a result, in 1994, Bush Jr., a newcomer who had never held any political office, ran for governor of Texas as soon as he came out. That year, his brother Jeb Bush announced his candidacy for governor of Florida.

​​

At that time, the outside world was generally more optimistic about Jeb's success. Even Bush Sr. himself said that Jeb was the most likely to inherit his mantle among his five children~www.readwn.com~ But in the end, Bush Jr. was successfully elected governor of Texas, and Jeb stumbled.

​​

Li Xuan can be sure that George W. Bush has finally embarked on the right path. The purpose of quitting drinking is to whiten his shortcomings and not leave too much influence on future political enemies. And as the manager of the Texas Rangers is to raise hope and pave the way for his future entry into the political arena.

​​

Never expect too much from the sanity of American voters, most of whom do not vote with their brains. If Tom Cruise has a chance to win the presidential nomination of both parties, just with his cheeky face, he will definitely get no less votes than Bush, an idiot in the eyes of Americans.

​​

"How much does it cost to acquire the Rangers? I hope you can turn it into a strong force in the mlb team, and you'd better win a championship trophy soon!" Li Xuan said with a smile.

​​

This made Bush Jr., who was thinking about how to use a better excuse to convince the other party, a little bit confused. He didn't know why the other party suddenly changed his mind. For Li Xuan, it is undoubtedly a very interesting thing to be able to cultivate a US president by himself.

​​

He patted Bush on the shoulder, ready to have an in-depth chat with him! (To be continued.)
