The Wolf of Los Angeles - Chapter 306
Throughout January and February, Hawke focused all his energy on the company, adjusting the company’s structure, recruiting new employees, formulating more standardized management systems, and promoting the company’s continued development.
I don’t have much time to date Erica or Megan.
During this period, he also went to Kovina several times to directly direct Brian’s campaign operations.
Brian also formally hired Hawke as special campaign counsel, with a salary of up to $5 million.
“I know you’re a billionaire now and you don’t like this little money anymore.”
In the office, Brian said to Hawke: “The rest can only be paid to you after I get elected.”
How could Hawke dislike $5 million? Such a sum of money is enough to hire dozens of elite mercenaries from Latin America.
“The money is transferred directly to the West Coast Studio’s account, just like before.”
Brian immediately called the financial manager and asked, “We have already started the meteorological situation, maybe God bless them. Those weather experts said that precipitation in Los Angeles will show a decreasing trend in the next few years, so there is no need to spend too much effort. Build momentum.”
“It means the weather is helping us.” Hawke said seriously: “The next one is the environmental organization.”
“I’ve contacted several environmental leaders, and as long as they are willing to pay, they are willing to do things.”
Hawke nodded: “You can’t save money in this area. Contact the media to start building momentum.”
He thought for a while and said, “The Oscars are coming soon. Environmental protection has always been a charity that celebrities like to advertise. Let alternative aquatic animals be on the Oscars and let Hollywood stars speak for them.”
“I know the people in Hollywood so well that as long as they make the popularity, they will definitely keep up.”
On one hand, Hawke was not very relieved and asked specifically: “Can the hidden foundation where funds are in and out withstand investigation?”
“Of course.” Brian lowered his voice and said, “This is a foundation my grandfather founded more than ten years ago. It is under the name of a person who appears to be a donkey party. He has funded the donkey party many times over the years.”
“The Fergusons are investing more and more resources in you,” Hawke said.
Brian looked serious and said, “I’m under a lot of pressure.”
Driven by Hawke, a university research institute conducted a targeted investigation into the waters of California north of Los Angeles and discovered an endangered fish called cucumber fish.
This fish is very small in number in California, and has strict requirements on the aquatic environment. It mainly lives in the waters of northern and central California.
With Hawke’s order, through a secret private foundation, a large amount of funds began to flow into mainstream California media accounts, including the Los Angeles Times.
Therefore, during the end of February and early March, the gua fish became a star animal in the media.
Some media promote the importance of gua gua sausage to biodiversity, some media promote the key role of gua sausage in California’s biological chain, and others say that protecting sparse gua sausage is a major advance in human civilization.
Hu Guayu became popular, and the online media was unwilling to fall behind and quickly followed up.
Google, Yahoo and Twitter have reported on the origin of the gua fish and launched related videos and pictures.
Twitter also specially established an official Twitter account for Hu Guayu. Through the backend algorithm, the news about Hu Guayu was quietly pushed into the Twitter-related news of the members of the environmental protection organization.
It is difficult for these environmentalists to not pay attention to the gua fish.
Media reports quickly attracted the attention of many environmental organizations such as the California Conservancy Association, Earth Justice, the Sierra Club and the Environmental Protection Foundation.
As we all know, the real purpose of environmental protection organizations has never been to protect the environment or animals and plants.
Several environmental opinion leaders, influenced by the secret foundation’s ability, organized environmentalists under their organization to apply for parade permits in cities such as Los Angeles, San Francisco and Sacramento, and took to the streets on a large scale to win the gua fish. Fight for rights and interests.
For a moment, Hu Guayu was in the limelight, and even the momentum of the upcoming Oscars ceremony was suppressed.
On the 74th Oscars, more than 300 environmentalists came to the Koda Theater, holding high the flag of the courgette, pulling banners to protect the courgette, and sitting across the Koda Theater.
A large number of reporters came from the award ceremony to interview these people.
At the subsequent awards ceremony, as Hawke and Brian expected, there were Hollywood stars who boast about environmental protection, and mentioned the gua fish on the podium.
The first to debut was Hollywood’s No. 1 environmental pioneer Leonardo DiCaprio.
California’s environmental protection is on the left. As a typical leftist in Hollywood, Leonardo made a loud shout after appearing as an award presenter: “Although the gua fish is small, it is a member of our California family. We should take care of our family like we are That way, protect the courgette!”
Later, Charles Theron, who won the Oscar for Best Actress tonight, also expressed his special thanks to Hu Guayu at the end of his speech: “It made us realize that no matter how ordinary and insignificant it is, it has great significance! ”
After the Oscars ceremony, Hu Guayu’s treatment enjoyed between media and public opinion was comparable to that of the Oscar winners and actresses.
The popularity of gua fish is getting higher and higher.
The vice president of the California Conservancy Association and the chairman of Earth Justice have come forward one after another, calling on the California government to formulate a special regulation to protect the cucumber fish and their living environment.
Things have developed to this extent, and have been out of Hawk’s control, but have achieved the effect he wants.
Environmental protection has always been a social and political movement that the California Donkey Party likes.
Hawke quietly prepared the dishes and brought them to the donkey party members. How could these people bear it? Several members of the California State Legislature mentioned the gua fish in interviews and called on more people to stand up and work hard to protect the gua fish.
On Twitter, Protecting Guayu has already topped the hot search news list.
Twitter statistics show that there are more than 4 million topics related to the protection of gua fish, and the number of reposts is close to 17 million.
Hawke has been observing the responses of the media and public opinion. It is not difficult to see from it that there is a huge force joining the sport, further hyping up the news about Hu Guayu.
They need this little fish.
In the office of Twitter’s chairman, Hawke faced Brian who came to visit quietly and said, “As we expected, donkey parties who like to make a fuss about environmental protection, it is impossible to bear it when you see such a good dish. Live.”
Brian fully agrees: “In this place in California, environmental protection belongs to the basics of donkey parties.”
Hawke said: “The proposals brought out by the donkey party and the regulations passed by the donkey party will eventually find ways to make the consequences fall on the donkey party.”
Brian thought for a while and said, “Antonio will be the first person in charge.”
He turned around and asked, “When will we start the next step?”
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Hawke said: “First wait for the state legislature to pass the protection bill, and a while later, then publicize the sad experiences of 911 firefighters.”
Brian recalled the matters related to Hawke’s planning and added: “My people found several cases of California firefighters, two of which were from Los Angeles.”
“Very good,” Hawke reminded, “do their job well and let it go when needed.”
These need to be done step by step, but if it is too urgent, the effect will be bad.
In mid-March, Clint and Dalot, a member of the donkey party in the California Legislature, jointly launched a related protection proposal for the gua fish.
This move has won crazy support from eight major environmental protection organizations in California.
The media controlled by the donkey party are also building momentum.
Because the environmental protection campaign has been in California for many years and is politically correct, even Fox TV is reporting on this campaign.
Like other media, Twitter will not miss such hot news.
Eight major environmental organizations have gathered thousands of people to Sacramento from all over California to come to Ninth Street, sit quietly in front of the state capitol, and support the environmental protection measures of the two state legislators.
This kind of environmentalist movement involving politics, it is difficult for those who do not participate in it to understand the fanaticism and persistence of those people.
If it were Hawke’s thinking in his previous life, this group of people was purely full.
After all, the thing about gua fish is rare in California, but it is not uncommon around the world.
After all, it doesn’t matter what is protected. The economic or political purpose achieved through protection is the most important.
The support activities for many consecutive days have been widely reported by the media and have occupied the commanding heights of public opinion.
From the media, it seems that people in California are supporting the protection of gua fish.
When needed, the efficiency of political activities can be astonishingly fast.
Members Clint and Dalot formally submitted the bill, which was passed in the California Special Assembly in March.
But the bill was rejected by Gov. Schwarzenegger.
Support for the movement became a protest.
According to regulations, if the proposal is rejected by the governor, it will be returned to the state assembly, which can overturn the governor’s veto by a two-thirds majority, making the proposal a law.
2004 is the year of elections, and the election is coming. How could the donkey parties give up at this time? The war has begun.
Many donkey party members jumped up and down and connected everywhere, hoping to use this bill to continue to win full support from environmental organizations and the California public this year.
The donkey-controlled state legislature was soon held again, eventually overturning Schwarzenegger’s veto with a two-thirds majority, turning the proposal into a statute.
A California local method called the Gua Fish and the Survival and Environmental Protection Act was officially enacted.
Once this local regulation was issued, it basically eliminated the possibility of water transfer from north central California to southern California.
The formal implementation of the “Guagua Fish” regulations has made the donkey party happy and the morale has been greatly boosted.
Many people have seen the absolute victory in the election year.
Although the Elephants won a game in California last year, California is ultimately the Deep Blue.
At the moment of election year, the elephants were not as powerful as they thought. (End of this chapter)
