The problem was solved. It took a week for Gao Yang to fly back and forth to four places and meet with a congressman and three senators. He didn¡¯t sign a check or pay any cash, but everything was settled.
To put it bluntly, it is a transaction of power and money, but everything is legal, because those members of Congress did nothing, really nothing, not even hinting at anything. They just accepted Gao Yang into their social circle. That's all, but the problem that troubled Gao Yang was solved.
Why is the problem so easy to solve? Because the director of CIA is now in the same circle of interests as Gao Yang.
This is a transaction, but this transaction is legal, and the transaction method is by no means as simple as you pay and I will do the work. In essence, it is like this, but of course it will not be that simple in operation, because if a senator directly purchases money from a businessman, It is illegal to collect large amounts of money online, but after a series of clever and legal operations, everyone can get the benefits they want without anything illegal. This is the key point and the subtlety of the transaction.
Those who understand will naturally understand, but those who don¡¯t understand will not understand even if it is explained, and they still don¡¯t believe it.
How to repay those who have helped you in power? There is a skill to this, and Gao Yang learned a trick today.
Yelena held her arms high and was wearing a white dress, looking elegant and beautiful. As a rising star of classical music, her appearance would never be a problem, but Yelena was a little nervous at the moment, just because she came The event I attended was completely different from the past.
This is a gathering of dignitaries. As the crowd of celebrities walked slowly forward, Yelena couldn't help but whisper: "My dear, is it really appropriate for me to attend such an occasion?"
Gao Yang tilted his head slightly and said with a smile: "There's nothing inappropriate. It's just a banquet and a speech by the way. You are just an audience. This is much easier than performing on stage, right?"
Yelena nodded slightly. She looked at Morgan not far ahead, and then whispered: "Oh, okay, I won't be very nervous."
Gao Yang stood at the door of the banquet hall and handed out the invitation. The receptionist with white gloves took the invitation and took a look at it. He lowered his head, smiled and said softly: "Mr. Gao, Miss Yelena, welcome you two, please. "
Gao Yang leaned forward slightly and led Yelena into the door of the banquet hall. At this time, Yelena patted her chest gently and whispered: "I can't believe that my name is on the invitation of the former president's speech. This is too much. It's amazing, I mean, I always thought I would be very calm when meeting presidents and other people who only live in the news, but now, I'm a little excited, very excited."
Gao Yang smiled and said: "It's just the former president, dear, the word former is very important."
Yelena shrugged and said, "Isn't that different? They are all big shots."
Gao Yang smiled and said: "Please, the invitation was not sent to you by the former president, but your name was written on it by the organizer, and I bet you have never heard of his name. Oh, I This is also the first time I heard his name.¡±
"Then why did he send you an invitation?"
"Because I am in the same circle as him now. To be precise, Morgan is in the same circle as him. More importantly, they have business dealings, and I will take over Morgan's business, so of course he has to give me an invitation. , oh, that¡¯s Morgan.¡±
Gao Yang brought Yelena to Morgan and said, "Hi, Morgan."
Morgan looked at Yelena and said with a smile: "You are so beautiful tonight. Relax. You look a little nervous. Relax. You will get used to this in the future."
After speaking to Yelena, Morgan looked at Gao Yang and said: "Let's go for a casual walk with your fianc¨¦e first. I have to meet some old friends. We will be at the same table when the banquet starts. We are here tonight. Several people are very important, are you ready?"
Gao Yang nodded and said, "Of course, I'm ready."
Morgan smiled and said: "Go ahead and chat with others. The speech won't start for half an hour, so there's no rush to take a seat."
Gao Yang and Yelena left. Before officially sitting down in their seats, people could walk around and chat at will. This was a good time to socialize, but Gao Yang and Yelena seemed too young and not well-known dignitaries in the city. So no one came up to talk to them, and they had no interest in coming up to talk to anyone.
Coming to a corner, Gao Yang smiled at Yelena and said, "Would you like something to drink?"
Yelena said softly: "It's strange, a speech shouldn't be done in a place like a theater, and then?A lot of listeners? "
Gao Yang spread his hands and said: "That was an ordinary and low-end speech. It's different here. There won't be too many listeners, and the food at the banquet won't be so exquisite, and most of them are cold dishes. Everything is just to bring everyone together and have fun." Just give the money to the former president."
"money?"
¡°Oh, half a million dollars, after tax, it¡¯s about eight hundred thousand dollars with tax, paid by the organizers of the banquet, that¡¯s it.¡±
"Why would you pay so much money to a former president to give a speech? Because he is really very capable, and he only pays so much for speaking a few words?"
"Oh no, no, no, the only reason to pay the former president to give a speech is that the current president cannot accept payment to give a speech, but it can be done after he leaves office. Do you understand?"
"Why?"
Gao Yang sighed and lowered his voice: "Because the person who really paid the money owes the former president a favor? Do you understand? This debt of favor has been owed since the president's term. Now that the president has resigned, he can pay. So he organized this reception in the name of charity, and invited the former president to give a speech, and after the former president had a casual chat, he would get the half a million dollars after tax, do you understand?"
Yelena¡¯s eyes widened and she trembled: ¡°Is this okay?¡±
"Of course, dear, don't stare so wide. Maybe I will have to pay in this way in the future. You have to get used to it."
Yelena trembled: "But is it only $500,000? Is it too little? You often sell for tens of millions, why do you only need $500,000 here?"
Gao Yang sighed: "It's quite a lot. After all, paying $800,000 is a lot for something that can be accomplished with just a few words. You can't give too much at once. After all, this is just a speech, not to mention anything." What Mr. President can accomplish by himself, everyone has already received their due share, but only the former president is qualified to collect money like this. There is a lot of fair and legitimate income."
After finishing speaking, Gao Yang knocked on his head and smiled: "Sorry, I want to correct something. The former Secretary of State is also qualified to receive money for speeches. As for others, I just entered this field for too short a time. I know too much, but I think they should have appropriate means to collect money. There must be, I guarantee it."
