Chapter 1709: This is not 2020

Arriving in New York, it was another three consecutive days of busyness. Even though Ar Gore's emotions were getting more and more depressed and he had no intention of sprinting for another election, Simon did not relax at all.

There are many more things to do.

The first thing is to explain, comfort and indoctrinate.

Before the news broke, most people in the Westeros system thought that Simon supported Al Gore. The sudden big turn not only made many people confused, but also caused misunderstandings and even deeper negative emotions.

If Simon is indifferent to this, it will only deepen all kinds of misunderstandings.

Therefore, communication is necessary.

In fact, for the support of the party, the higher the social pyramid, the less determined the people are, because changes in high-level policies can have a more direct impact on them. This requires more flexibility in changing directions at any time, and naturally choose which side gives more benefits.

The key this time is Simon's concealment.

If we communicate well in advance, because of the integration of interests, most of the core of Westeros system will definitely follow Simon.

In addition to explaining and comforting, the most important thing Simon did is indoctrination.

Similar to the previous metaphor of Amy and others about lions and cattle and horses at Daenerys's senior meeting, the goal is to let everyone understand that Westerosian is an existence that transcends American politics, not a certain level of relationship.

To put it bluntly, no lion would choose to tie herbivores such as cattle, horse, rabbits, and sheep, because they are carnivorous and hunting classes.

In addition to his own family, another group of people who need to be appeased are also a group of spokespersons of the Westeros family in the political circle.

This group of people is actually divided into two categories, one is Westerosian and the other is not.

After all, there was not much business time, and the former was small in number, but no matter which side Simon stood, they would follow.

The latter has a relatively large number for the time being, so Simon needs to put in some more thoughts.

Simon's attitude was that the Westeros system would continue to support them. As for why he gave up Gore this time, Simon did not give too clear reasons, but Hanhu's two sides have different ideas.

Not only that, Simon also needs to get clear feedback.

If you cannot accept the turn of the Westeros system this time, the two sides can go their separate ways and get together and part.

If accepted, continue to cooperate in the future.

Or the third type, if you disobey and take advantage of the benefits and don’t do anything, it’s okay. Anyway, Simon values ​​more what they do next, rather than what they say now.

In the future, if the interests of the Westeros system are inconsistent, it will not be as simple as the current gathering and separation.

In addition to this matter, Simon also needs to start planning some arrangements for the future.

One of the most important goals is Al Gore.

Since it has completely broken, Simon knows that "there is no death to kill the snake, but it will be harmed." Therefore, the Westeros system will do its best to strip away all political influence of Gore. In addition to cutting off any possibility of Gore's return, it will also aim at all the allies of the Gore family.

Either draw a line with Gore or be cleared out of politics together.

In addition to these, there may be some other legacy, which can only be seen while walking.

Three days passed by in a blink of an eye.

On a new Monday, the day before the election, the US stock market still successfully stabilized. As Westeros system controls the media's publicity about Bush's victory, the market panic that occurred last week continued to dissipate. The Nasdaq's single-day decline narrowed again, closing down by only 1.2% on Monday, while the Dow Jones Index also rebounded slightly, closing up 0.7% on the same day.

So, it's Tuesday.

On November 8, 2000, the voting day of the 54th US presidential election was officially launched.

Simon woke up in the manor in the northern suburbs of Greenwich in the morning. It happened that it was snowing today, not heavy, but it was very atmosphere. It was a good day to watch the snow around the fire.

The breakfast was very lively. In addition to Simon, there was also Sophia Fisch, who was called by Janet to take care of a group of little guys, except for Melbourne and Seattle, and Sophia's daughter Gemma. However, after breakfast, Simon was left soon.

Sofia has a project to discuss today and went to Manhattan.

Gemma still has to go to school.

It was confirmed that Simon would not go out today. The little guys were handed over to him by Sofia. Simon couldn't stand it. When the woman left, he immediately ordered the butler Angry Davis to take the children away and go wherever she loves.

Um.

This is also for the good of the children.

Simon was worried that he would transform from a "loyal father" to a "strict father" after spending a long time together. After all, who can stand a group of young people who are generally between three and seven years old who are ignorant of their age?

Then I stayed alone in a living room with floor-to-ceiling glass windows on the second floor of the villa to enjoy the view of the snow.

No fireplace.

This is not needed for indoors that maintain a constant temperature of 23 degrees.

The large-screen wall-mounted TV is connected to the computer, and the interface is the election information of the Yingerit portal in real-time scrolling. Simon is nestled in a single sofa by the window where he can enjoy the scenery. On the round table next to it is a cup of hot milk with suitable temperature, a stack of book scripts, a custom iPad, and a crystal ball summoner.

Holding a script in my hand, I read a few pages, occasionally looking up, outside the window was covered with evergreen trees gradually being painted with snow, and a small lake in the snow was deep and peaceful.

In the morning, Gemma said that she would invite her classmates to come to the lake to skate with her when it was colder.

Sofia said that if she liked it, she could arrange an ice rink for her daughter, which would be safer, but she got a look.

Not unfair.

What you want is the air-cooling atmosphere in this kind of ice and snow atmosphere. What is the point of running to the closed venue?

Occasionally, my thoughts scattered and I finished a script without realizing it.

This is the "Mold Rouge" that Australian director Baz Ruhman has just completed in several years.

Speaking of which, Ruhman is a typical low-profit director. His previous "Heroes of the Dance" and the modern version of "Romeo and Juliet" both achieved very good results in Hollywood. However, the director did not rush to continue his efforts, but returned to Australia to start a stage play and slowly polished his new work.

The new script was completed recently and it was soon transferred to Simon.

After all, the previous cooperation between the two parties has been very pleasant, and the other party has no reason to choose another studio. Daenerys got the script and directly launched the project with a green light.

Last year's "Chicago" has performed so well, of course, I have to take advantage of the situation and release some song and dance films.

Of course, Simon remembers that compared to "Chicago", the box office results of "The Moulin Rouge" are much worse, but they are only relative. In terms of investment, it is still a work with both reputation and box office success.

He picked up the pen and wrote down the female idea of ​​"Nicole Kidman" in the blank of the last page. Simon thought about it and the male protagonist did not choose the original version. It was really that Yin Wan McGregor, who used to be in the Star Wars prequel series, had no presence, and if he had changed to someone else, he might be more outstanding.

In addition, the screenwriter of this movie is worth talking about.
