"Actually, we could do more."
"More? Don't be ridiculous!"
"Then I..."
"You better keep a low profile lately, I've heard so things."
"Really? You an..."
"It's not a big problem, but don't be too flamboyant."
"Understood."
Apostle got scolded, which made him sowhat annoyed.
However, he didn't dare to say much.
The person reprimanding him isn't actually soone important.
Of course, that's how outsiders see it.
In the eyes of ordinary Arican citizens, the most powerful figure is naturally the U.S. President!
Yes, legally speaking in this country, that's true.
Besides, whenever you open U.S. dia, especially on TV Stations.
They'd say as much.
Interestingly, they'll add 'the most powerful person on this planet.'
Alright, in this dinsion, these TV Stations occasionally do things rigorously.
For instance, they'll say the second and third most powerful people on this planet are not the U.S. Vice President or Secretary of State.
But add in Russia and China.
But anyone familiar with the U.S. Governnt's chanisms would understand.
The U.S. President is only superficially the most powerful person.
ntioning this topic, many people think of that long-rumored term.
The Deep...
But in reality, those who truly understand the workings of power can easily discern who truly holds the power.
To put it simply.
For example, so of the President's itineraries.
Let's say, the U.S. President in so itinerary, he needs to discuss so important matters.
Like state visits.
Visiting one country first, or another later... the difference is more significant than many might imagine.
Take the European Union as an example.
There are two fairly strong countries, Germany and France, and currently still the UK.
But the UK is outside the Mainland after all.
The ones truly having great power within the EU, are Germany and France.
So what if the U.S. President visits Germany first?
That equates to the Grand Commander of the U.S. recognizing Germany's capability.
Even though Germany as a country is not a 'complete' nation.
But what if they switch it?
Visit France first, what would be the outco?
Simply, so German businesses and governnt policies would make significant adjustnts.
Originally making a concession of 1%, now it might be 3%.
That's entirely possible.
So might think this is nonsense.
The one who calls the shots isn't it the Grand Commander living in the White House?
Yes, he holds the power.
But how to exercise that power, the ans and paths.
All are very crucial!
Actually, in our dostic officialdom, such situations exist as well.
The way we play this is even shrewder, simply saying.
So who are the powerful figures in reality?
Secretaries!
The Mayor's secretary, or so secretary or another.
These are the real power-holders, because they can arrange leaders' schedules, and those schedules sotis determine the final decisions.
Taking a big step back, the simplest explanation.
Soone plans to invest 1 million, but the first investnt candidate they et really satisfies.
So they invest 1 million, no need to et other candidates.
Yes, just like that.
Power is exactly the sa.
On a larger scale, it's no different.
The White House is no exception.
It's required to have special personnel to arrange the President's schedule.
And that position is the head of The Office at the White House.
Translated into Chinese, it can be called a Director.
There's also a translation: Chief of Staff.
But really speaking, it could be called a 'Secretary.'
That is, the President's main secretary.
And the guy who just scolded Apostle.
Mr. Klein.
He is the confidant of the current President's main secretary.
Apostle wouldn't dare confront him even with a hundred guts.
It seems, this is sohow stratified too, huh.
Not the real main secretary.
But it's precisely this that makes it scarier.
In fact, many people don't understand one thing.
That is, Mr. Klein's identity is very special.
He is Jewish.
Now you understand, right?
In fact, many White House Chiefs of Staff in U.S. history have been Jewish.
Regardless of whether it's the Democratic Party or Republican Party.
We don't bother the current holder of that position, but Apostle knows this person well who disciplines him.
So Apostle dare not do anything.
And the ssage conveyed by Mr. Klein is simple.
It's to let Apostle restrain himself.
That's not bad.
But... Apostle is still very curious.
Is there anyone who would dare not to give Mr. Klein face?
It's simply not possible.
This is the United States, who does he think he is?
It's really… looks like Apostle's been CPU'd for a long ti.
But, regardless, this ssage has co in.
So, will things happen?
Is anyone already investigating him?
...
US-xico Border.
"Mr. George, are you sure you have that much in stock?"
"Hehe... I've done this business more tis than I can count, and you still ask such naive questions?"
"Uh... we have to at least ask."
"Alright, I'll tell you plainly, I can bring nearly 20 at least."
"20? My God."
"Why? Don't you believe ?"
"Well... it does seem a bit difficult, such a large number."
"Then, it's you who lack the capability."
"No..."
"Then, I'll need to see your capability first."
The man called Mr. George was quite flamboyant at the mont.
And the opponent was clearly Old Mo.
20 referred to children.
That Old Mo was indeed astonished, as pulling off 20 children at once.
How did he manage that?
"Do you want to co to us..."
"You're not the real boss, of course, I want to see your boss."
"But..."
"Do you want to know how I got those children?"
"Certainly!"
"That's a trade secret!"
"But... at least give a hint? Please."
The opponent softened, and Mr. George seed inclined to divulge.
However, this might touch on the core of his business, so he hesitated.
"I swear to God, I absolutely won't say a word... Also, just a bit would suffice."
Old Mo was really eager to know.
But Mr. George's expression was icy.
Old Mo had to continue, "You know, Mr. George, if you could tell so of your thods, then I could inform my boss, and perhaps there would be a eting."
This proposition seed acceptable.
"You've shown a slight bit of sincerity." Mr. George slightly frowned, then revealed a tiny bit of his 'business trick.'
"Have you heard about so things in the United States?"
"What?"
"Child stars."
"Huh?"
"In the United States, chasing dreams in Hollywood isn't just for adults; many underage kids, and of course, greedy parents too.
I just need to place certain ads, and parents will bring their kids to , and then... the rest is my secret."
What Mr. George said... is that enough?
"Amazing! Mr. George, please wait for good news."
Old Mo was thrilled, seems he had heard of similar thods before.
And Mr. George displayed a smile.
But in reality, George was Henry.
The 'business trick' he previously spoke of was the case details he'd investigated before...
