Sacramento, the capital of California, is located in central California and on the Sacramento River Basin. It is the county seat of Sacramento County and the state capital of California. It built a settlement in 1839, discovered gold in 1848 and set off a gold rush, and was officially established in December 1849. The city developed rapidly, and was designated as the state capital in 1854, and established as a city in 1863.

Today, it is also the fifth most populous city in California. Five hundred thousand, this figure is a joke in China and India, but it is enough for it to enjoy such a status.

Today is the time for Republicans to come together. As of next year, the term of current Gov. Deck Mejean will end, and another seven years of state government will follow. The matter is of great importance, and all the careerists officially launched their actions years ago. Although no one talked about it, today's gathering is the moment for many congressmen to find supporters for themselves.

So naturally, when the envoys shuttled constantly in the hotel lobby, looking around, there were not only political elites present, but also a large number of business people.

"I can assure everyone that as long as Mr. President can win re-election, he will never treat his own people badly. Now is the moment when the Soviet Union is in a precarious state. The next few years are crucial, and California faces the Pacific Ocean, and will be directly affected by it. Shock from Asia..."

Peter Wilson stood in an eye-catching position, surrounded by many well-known celebrities in the circle, he talked boastfully: "It's like Japan, don't look at how arrogant they have been for the past two years, who doesn't know that it's just a real estate bubble Three years! At most three years, their economy will fall to the bottom, and when we take back the businesses and real estate purchased by them, the Republican Party's ruling philosophy will definitely open the door for everyone!"

After his words fell, there was a burst of warm applause all around.

But not all the people nearby gave him applause.

"Mr. Lockheed." Alice said to the young man in front of her, "This is the meeting place for Republicans in California. Why did you come all the way from the east coast?"

Oren Lockheed, in a suit and leather shoes, holding champagne, is handsome and unrestrained, attracting the favor of countless girls and daughters-in-law as soon as he enters the venue. However, he ignored everyone and went straight to Alice Wang who was walking around the audience.

"I'm here to congratulate you. Andra Adams is a sophisticated arms dealer. I heard that you have made a lot of big moves recently?"

The situation is really delicate. "How have you treated me these past few years" sounds bloody, and it is really ambiguous to the limit, but it is the words that Alice can question this man. As for Lockheed, what a title as a technical consultant, in three or two years, this arms dealer has never given her many further opportunities. Although this period of time is not long, compared to Alice's cumulative six-year development speed, it undoubtedly seems very procrastinated.

"Oh, big move." She looked at Oren with a half-smile: "Yes, it's a big move, the Soviet Union is getting more and more lively now, and the Balkans and the Middle East are also constantly conflicting, it's all about you and me Time to flex your muscles, isn't it?"

Oren Lockheed's visit today was not with the mentality of finding fault, he keenly captured the key points of Alice's words. The situation in California is indeed different from the past, as he observed during the half hour since he entered the door. Although Alice Wang only participated in a few conversations, almost everyone in the audience looked at her from time to time A few glances.

There is no shortage of Bank of America presidents among them, figures of this level.

"Yes, the Pentagon has been urging the development of the new aircraft recently. Judging from their appearance, it seems that they are determined to send it directly to the battlefield within the next two years. Alice, do you have any new news here?"

"Me? Oh, that's right, I've seen the Department of Defense's orders for Northrop Grumman over the past few years. They have indeed purchased a large number of radar equipment, and the demand for new early warning aircraft is higher than that of bombers. .In fact, counting the years, the Korean War, and then the Vietnam War, the 1980s have been quiet for so long...it seems like there should be new activities, right?"

It is full of words and is a high-level summary of the situation for decades. Alice knew, and Oren Lockheed also knew that in the past ten years, although the country has been peaceful on the whole, the global strategic layout has never stopped. Just like how Blackwater was able to obtain 2,000 soldiers from the Ministry of Defense, under the name of a security company, secretly launching armed operations against conflicting areas of interest has never happened.

But if we really want to say that the country’s officially declared combat behavior is really nothing since North Korea and Vietnam.

Is it really time for a new era?

But very blind, just when Oren was about to say something more, a man interrupted.

"Mr. Lockheed!"

State Congressman Peter Wilson stepped forward: "It's such a surprise to see you in Sacramento! What brought you here? Are you used to the climate in California?"

Oren shook hands with him, still showing basic courtesy to the arrival of an unexpected guest: "May I ask who you are?"

"I'm very optimistic about you, Mr. Wilson." Alice interrupted: "Your speech just now was very imposing. Did you see me applauding for you?"

Oren laughed dumbfounded when he heard that, but he has been staring at Alice, when did he applaud her?

"You really support my opinion just now? Thank you very much, thank you very much!" As soon as he shook Alice's hand, Wilson directly put Oren aside: "As an excellent investor, I believe you You should have some unique insights into the economic situation in the next two years, right?"

Alice's passing has always been seen by many people around. Oren Lockheed may not be well known to everyone, but seeing Wilson actually approached, many lower-level merchants immediately rose up. Twelve points of interest. Everyone knows what Wilson is planning, and now he has actually chatted with Alice Wang. Whether it succeeds or not, it is definitely worth their careful attention.

Watching his sister and politicians boasting from a distance, Oscar stood in the distance and had no intention of going over to join in the fun.

"Feeling stressed?" A girl with long wine-red hair came to him and said in a gentle manner: "In fact, Alice's ability has really reached a level that we can't even envy."

Oscar recognized this girl, Alice's pen pal, the daughter of Universal Cinema, Fleur Swan.

He smiled wryly: "Believe me, Miss Swan, if you really understand my sister, you will know that as long as you are a normal earth person, you have no possibility of competing with her."

Fleur Swan blinked her eyes, and said with a half-smile, "You mean, I, Alice's good pen pal and best friend, don't know her better than you, my younger brother?"

This sentence really made Oscar speechless. Yes, he is Alice's younger brother and Hannah's older brother, but no matter how close a relative is, it is impossible to know everything about a person. Not to mention gender differences, there are some things that are really hidden from family members.

Especially the last definition, Oscar knew that his whole family had recently refreshed their understanding of it.

So he immediately changed the subject: "Miss Swan, are you also invited to this party?"

"Oh, my father is there." Fleur pointed to the corner, and Oscar followed the trend. The chairman of Universal Films was holding a wine glass, having a good chat with several other familiar wealthy businessmen. Near him, Oscar even saw Li Ka-shing himself.

"Oh, that one." Fleur Swan also saw Li Ka-shing: "Cheung Kong Group, Hutchison Whampoa, these companies have made a lot of noise in California recently. I heard that you seem to be facing South Korea's Shipbuilding companies doing mergers and acquisitions?"

"South Korea? Oh, yes, yes, directly by Umbrella Capital, our investment experts are directly poached from Wall Street with high salaries. Then we also established a large shipyard in the industrial area of ​​Los Angeles County. Alice is planning to To FedEx..."

"Hush..."

Fleur softly stopped Oscar's chatter, then put down her fingers, and said with a gentle smile: "I'm from Hollywood, Oscar-King, it's rare that DreamWorks is going through a period of difficult labor recently, don't you want to get a trick from me?" Any interesting scripts?"

It wasn't his own lips, but when he saw Fleur put down his fingers, Oscar's whole body couldn't help rushing towards the sky and the earth.

"Cough! Well, that makes sense. Maybe we can consider putting "Jurassic Park" on the screen? The special effects software from A\u0026A is very good. When Alice was filming "Alien II"..."

"Oh, oh, isn't this Fleur."

Poor Oscar, both speeches were interrupted. Like a white hanged ghost, ah, not a white elf, Alice leaped here lightly.

"Alice!"

Seeing the person coming, Fleur also immediately abandoned Oscar, stretched out her arms and hugged his sister: "It's been a long time, let me think about it, the last time we met, was it or was it? "

"It should be said, which time was the last time we met in the past few months." Alice looked like a fool: "Also, short-term memory is not good. Is your long-term memory shrinking too? Fleur Hey, this is my younger brother, don’t rabbits understand if they don’t eat the grass by the side of the nest?”

Oscar: "Ah hello..."

"Oh, my mistake, my mistake." Fleur smiled lightly, gave Oscar a head back, and at the same time blocked Alice's face: "Come on Alice, look at you and that After chatting with the congressman for so long, why don’t you tell me quickly, what kind of secret agreements have you signed with him~?”

Just like that, Oscar watched helplessly. When his elder sister came over, the beautiful woman with an Oxford accent suddenly appeared, and then floated away like an elf.

"Ah hello..."
