This is the story of a modern sailor who accidentally becomes a soldier in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, and, by relying on his foresight, eventually becomes the head of the largest financial ...
The conversation between Fang Lang and Fang Tao really diverted the family's attention. Fang Lang was not worried about the impact that would occur after Fang Tao told Anderson about the TV station's profit-making method.
After all, the current TV station has been almost set up.
Anderson has invested a lot of time and energy in Brazilian TV. He won't leave even if you try to drive him away.
As for other people who want to enter this industry, Fang Lang cannot stop them.
On the contrary, he hopes that more people will enter the industry. Only when there are more programs and TV channels will people's enthusiasm for buying TVs increase.
Only then can television stations truly develop and prosper.
In addition to his own family, Fang Lang's uncle Yang Zong was also at home today. He was busy communicating with his uncles and brothers, so Fang Lang didn't even get to say a few words to his uncle's family.
"Brother, how is your work in the Sao Paulo City Government?"
My uncle Yang Zong got married earlier than my mother. He and his Portuguese wife were classmates and they got married through free love.
...
...
Yang Gan is their eldest son, who currently works in the São Paulo City Government. He is two years older than Fang Lang, so Fang Lang always calls him Brother.
As for the younger son Yang Kun, he is two years younger than Fang Lang. According to Fang Lang's understanding, he seems to be studying at a teachers' college in São Paulo.
It is because both of them have their own direction and goals.
Therefore, no one was willing to take over the unprofitable small cigarette factory from his uncle, forcing his uncle to sell it, and in the end Fang Lang got the profit.
It has grown and developed under Fang Lang's leadership and has become the largest tobacco company in Brazil, with astonishing monthly profits.
Fang Lang didn't know whether his uncle's family had other thoughts in their minds.
"Brother, I came here specifically to thank you, thanks to you.
I am now Mayor Scalia's secretary, and the mayor has been very caring towards me since he learned about our relationship.
He introduced me to the National Alliance and planned to have me run for São Paulo City Council in the next parliamentary election. ”
In Fang Lang's impression, Yang Gan was just an ordinary clerk in the Sao Paulo City Government.
Unexpectedly, in such a short period of time, he was directly promoted by Mayor Scalia to be the mayor's secretary, and also joined the National Alliance, one of the three major political parties in Brazil.
Although the influence of the National Alliance in Brazilian politics is not as strong as that of old parties such as the Social Democratic Party,
But the development speed in recent years has been very rapid.
This can be seen from the fact that the mayoral throne of Brazil's second largest city fell into the hands of National Alliance member Scalia.
What surprised Fang Lang even more was that in this election, Scalia was able to continue to be re-elected as the mayor of São Paulo, which shows that the National Alliance is still very strong in São Paulo.
As for the other party promoting Yang Gan, it was definitely not because of Yang Gan’s outstanding work ability.
Yang Gan obviously understood this, so he expressed his gratitude directly to me.
Judging from his facial features, Yang Gan inherited the genes of his father Yang Zong, but his wavy hair and skin color are clearly from his mother.
However, both Yang Gan's name and living habits are very Chinese.
Because of his living environment since childhood, he has a strong sense of identification with Chinese culture. The most amazing thing is that this guy can actually write excellent calligraphy.
Fang Lang envied this skill for a long time when he was a child. Of course, Fang Lang now also envies people who can write good calligraphy.
"Brother, why are you thanking me? Didn't you get all this through your own ability?
What does it have to do with me? ”
"Oh! If I were really capable, I wouldn't have stayed in a clerk's position for three years without moving.
Ever since you developed an industrial park in São Paulo and our relationship became known to the city government, I have become a popular figure.
It seemed as if all the city government staff had become very polite overnight.
Soon I was promoted to a small supervisor.
When Fangyuan Group established a shipyard in Brazil, I was directly recruited as a party member by the National Alliance.
As Fangyuan Group's investment in Sao Paulo grew, my position became higher and higher.
If this doesn't make me understand how I got to where I am today, then I'm really stupid. ”
Yang Gan’s frankness was unexpected.
The impression I had was that Yang Gan was quite self-important in front of Fang Lang. He didn't look down on this mischievous cousin since childhood, but at least he spoke to him in a somewhat reserved manner.
He looks so free and easy now, and indeed has matured a lot.
For Fang Lang, this was indeed an unexpected gain. According to Fang Lang's plan, if Chinese people want to enter politics in the future, it is inevitable to join political parties.
Now that his cousin has joined the National Alliance, as long as he can provide him with some help, he will be able to quickly gain a foothold in the National Alliance.
Now that Yang Gan is in the National League, he naturally represents the interests of the Fangyuan Group, and he has no choice but to do so.
Because of his identity and background, everyone will automatically classify him as a Taoist.
Fang Lang smiled and said:
“That’s good, as Fangyuan Group does need its own representative within the government.
Since everyone knows your identity, I wonder if anyone has taken the initiative to extend an olive branch to you? ”
Fang Lang's affirmation made Yang Gan very happy.
With Fang Lang's recognition, Yang Gan can now openly show his identity as the agent of Fangyuan Group's interests.
"Of course, even before I officially became a member of the Sao Paulo City Council, many members of the National Alliance have already approached me.
I hope to get the support of Fangyuan Group. If you agree, I can organize a small gathering after I return to bring everyone together formally.
We will be able to make our voices heard in Parliament in the future. ”
Fang Lang understood Yang Gan's plan as soon as he heard it, and he did not object to it.
On the contrary, I feel that this is how politicians take advantage of the situation. I believe that after this gathering is held, Yang Gan's position in the National Alliance will be more solid, and he will soon have his own voice.
This is something Fang Lang was very happy to see.
"No problem, I have no objection, if you need my dad to come forward that's fine too.
You know, I'm a soldier and cannot attend your party's gatherings, so I won't go over to join in the fun.
In the future, I will let all subsidiaries of Fangyuan Group actively participate in some political activities.
At the very least, every subsidiary should have a member of parliament who can speak for it in the local parliament.
If you can unite everyone, then I think the day when you become a rising star in São Paulo politics is not far away. ”
Fang Lang’s words made Yang Gan and his uncle’s family very excited. If this was true, Yang Gan’s future would be limitless.
At the very least, he will become a prominent figure in São Paulo, and it is only a matter of time before he even becomes the Speaker of the São Paulo City Council.
"Thank you! Don't worry, brother. I won't let you down."
Given the relationship between Yang Gan and myself, there is no need to say too much. Everyone knows that they are an integral whole that cannot be separated.
If you talk too much, it will seem strange.
Fang Lang smiled and patted Yang Gan's arm, ready to end the conversation between the two, but Yang Gan said awkwardly:
"Brother, I have two things to tell you this time."
"Oh! What is it, you say?"
"Mr. Mayor, let me ask you when you are free. He hopes to visit you."
Fang Lang was not surprised at this situation. After all, Yang Gan was able to become Mayor Scalia's secretary because of his relationship with him.
Fangyuan Group currently has many projects in São Paulo, such as shipyards, steel mills, artillery factories, Porsche car factories, and many auto parts factories, all of which are built in São Paulo.
In addition, Fang Lang’s main purpose of returning to Sao Paulo this time was the aircraft modification factory that was about to open. After Pollman’s inspections, he finally chose to settle in Sao Paulo.
Even if Mayor Scalia didn't look for Fang Lang, Fang Lang was still prepared to meet with the mayor.
"Tomorrow! Go to Sao Paulo and find a good restaurant. I'll treat him to lunch tomorrow."
Yang Gan was very happy to hear Fang Lang agreed to meet with the mayor without hesitation. This showed that he still had a very high status in Fang Lang's mind.
"There is one more thing. I have a senior who also wants to visit you. I wonder if you can give him a chance?"
After hearing the second thing Yang Gan said, Fang Lang was a little stunned. What did he mean? Why did a senior want to see him?
Seeing Fang Lang looking at him with a questioning look on his face, Yang Gan quickly explained:
“It’s like this, my senior also works in the city government, but he is a member of the Social Democratic Party.
Originally he wanted to invite me to join the Social Democratic Party.
At that time, I was just a small clerk who had just started working in the government and was not very clear about these political matters.
In addition, he was only a grassroots party member, so his recommendation was not approved.
Later, after the mayor pulled me into the National Alliance, he was very dissatisfied with the Social Democratic Party's slow response.
He wants to change the Social Democratic Party's passive situation in Sao Paulo through his own efforts.
After knowing our relationship, he told me many times that he hoped I could introduce him to you.
so……"
When Fang Lang heard that the other party was a member of the Social Democratic Party, he laughed.
In fact, since Fang Lang took control of the Nice company, Fang Lang has already had a huge influence in the Social Democratic Party, the largest party in Brazil.
This is because the main members of the Social Democratic Party are farmers and ranchers, or spokespeople representing the interests of farmers and ranchers.
The original Nice company had a very huge say in the Social Democratic Party.
Now that the rights of Nice Company have been peacefully transferred to Fang Lang, it means that Fang Lang now automatically has the right to speak in the Social Democratic Party.
But in Fang Lang's view, this is not enough, even though he already has a huge influence on the Social Democratic Party.
But in fact, he has no one of his own in the Social Democratic Party. What Fang Lang needs to do now is to place his own people in these parties.
Unexpectedly, the Social Democratic Party, as the largest party, would be so slow and missed the opportunity to recruit Yang Gan.
Now after hearing Yang Gan's introduction of his senior, Fang Lang understood that this was a very ambitious guy who didn't want to be lonely.
As an ordinary member of the Social Democratic Party, he was able to think of using Yang Gan's relationship to get to know the big boss behind the Nice company.
It has to be said that this guy is bold, and Fang Lang also became a little interested in him.
I really want to meet him, but my schedule is very tight. After dealing with matters in São Paulo, I will go to the United States to take over the aircraft carrier.
He really couldn't be given too much time. After thinking for a while, Fang Lang said:
“I may not have time to see him this time, so!
Tell me his name and I will notify the Nice company and ask the manager of the Sao Paulo branch to talk to him and support his development. ”
