------------------------------I am the dividing line------------ --------------------
The third episode of the first season
Although the bill has been preliminarily drafted, it still needs to be revised and improved by all parties. It is also a balance between all parties (there are two major teacher unions participating). In the initial stage of the Frank bill conference room, Marty still spoke on Frank's side. It was quite at odds with the fact that the two later turned against each other. When there was a dispute over some clauses of the bill, Doug handed a note. Frank withdrew from the argument in due course, and watched the radio news that Doug pointed out: Olin, Sheriff of Gaffney County. Is making a fuss about the death of the girl Jessica Masters hitting the tower, attacking Frank’s work, the Peach Water Tower. Blame the girl’s death at the hands of Frank. Frank dismissed this kind of clown, his political opponents at the time, (now he is busy with bills and major issues, how can he take care of these bad things.) But the military strategist Doug looks on and knows the powerful relationship, and he repeatedly persuades him. , Analyze the key points. Frank Bijing is a veteran and senior politician. It is impossible not to know these truths. It is just an angry statement. Looking at the photos of the Peach Tower on the wall, it was originally a proud political achievement, but now it has become a fatal handle. Doug suggested that he should go south to resolve the matter in person. (This is a big deal. Frank did not want to go in person at first, (still reluctant to make a big contribution to the bill). Doug directly pointed out: If this matter is not handled properly, the bill will be greatly affected. not good. Frank can only solve it in person. . . . Of course, these two major issues were dealt with at the same time, and Bi Jing had no skills. Frank had to ask Linda for help. Can the bill matter be postponed and then deal with it? Linda rejected Frank's request for extension because the president had promised to the public in advance. (How can you affect the president's major events because of your personal incident?) Helpless Frank can only do two things and handle two things at the same time. . . Frank had to explain the reason for leaving to the whispering Marty before he could leave. . . . The newcomer Claire wants to hire is Gillian. The two chatted for a while about the pictures on the wall (the masterpiece of Claire's lover Adam Galloway.), and went into the office to discuss further. . . . Frank prepared the specific itinerary with the help of Doug and Nancy. The original driver Steve was on vacation due to illness and replaced by the new driver Ed Micham. (This new driver will also have many stories in the future.). . .
Zoe's three big news reports rose to fame, which attracted the attention of Mrs. Tilton, the owner of the "Herald". The owner came to the newspaper, just for Zoe. (This is by no means a trivial matter, a big man came to meet a small man, it can be seen (High attention to small people), Zoe came to Tom’s editor-in-chief's office, Tom introduced Zoe to Mrs. Tilton, the owner of the newspaper, and claimed that the owner liked Zoe’s report on Durant, and the owner corrected it. : I like it very much, (this is a very high praise for Zoe,) and said a long list of compliments to Zoe, especially mentioning that Durant is a friend of the owner, (the friend is not fake, but the owner It is not because a subordinate has written a report praising a friend and will visit in person. The owner is not concerned about this matter most, but just examines the subordinates on the basis of this matter, so as to make a big use.) The owner is most concerned about. It is Zoe’s source of information. Why can an unknown little reporter have such important and confidential government news. How can Zoe confess Frank, with the support of high-level government officials, Zoe’s tone is also full of anger, let her ( The boss of the boss is the boss of the boss, and he can also remain neither humble nor humble. I can't set up Mingtang for a long time. The owner smiled heartily, knowing that Zoe's background is not simple, and I didn't dare to ask again. As long as there is a steady stream of government news, the survival of the newspaper will not be a problem. Secondly, Zoe has a government background, which is unfathomable and inconvenient to offend. Since the owner is similar to high-level government such as Durant Goodness is naturally also a collusion of officials and businessmen, a master of power, and if necessary, he must also rely on Zoe's background., again, Zoe's integrity and personal style are also appreciated by the owner) Directly order the editor-in-chief: Move Zoe's report to Sunday (This is tantamount to a direct affirmation of Zoe, who is expected to be promoted, and it does not take much time.) Tom also has to put on the air of the editor-in-chief in front of his superiors and subordinates, and the official response: I will consider it. The owner directly took out the style of the newspaper’s chief executive: whatever you think about it, then put it on the front page. (It depends on how you make your decision. In the end, my decision will prevail.) Zoe was appointed by the highest-ranking figures of the newspaper (no one), and he was ecstatic. He has become the upstart of the club, and later replaced Jian Ning to become the White House. The chief reporter made sense.
Claire fired half of the employees just because of Gillian's newcomer, and the attention was not small (to put it bluntly, it was for Gillian's World Well project.), the two had a long talk and reached a preliminary agreement. . . . Frank in the car narrated the general situation and personal feelings about the birthplace (Gaffney County, South Carolina). After getting off the car, Frank first met the Sheriff Jean (It is estimated that there are more Sheriffs in Gaffney County, but not I know which of Genn and Olin is the deputy and which is the positive.) The two simultaneously looked at the place where the incident occurred: Peach Water Tower. Announced the impression of appearance. The next and most important step is to convince Olin, the political enemy, because he was the instigator of this matter. If Olin can be persuaded, then the dispute will be resolved more than half (you can persuade Olin to explain to the parents of the deceased.) . Frank met Olin for the first time and first pointed out that Olin's purpose in doing so was to seek political benefits for himself. Of course Olin resolutely opposed it. Then Frank showed his best skill in the first big stick "inducing" trick: to help him succeed in the fourth constituency. This good news for Olin sounded a bit tempting, but compared to the downfall of Frank, the latter was more important, so Olin politely declined Frank's "kindness." Unable to convince Orin, Frank had no choice but to negotiate with the two suffering masters. If the matter is settled, then "the people do not sue, the officials do not investigate", the same can solve the matter. . . . Claire was doing aerobic exercises in the morning, and when she passed the cemetery park, she was angrily rebuked by a white-haired old lady (The Quiet Office was alarmed by a long run, and she was disrespectful to the dead.), she was shocked to go back the same way, and she couldn't help feeling ashamed. . . Frank has two roles. Here he has to deal with the aftermath of the Peach Incident personally, and there he has to call the bill to participate in the disputes and remotely control the amendment of the bill. It was difficult for Frank to respond to Marty's bill request on the phone, so he could only postpone the processing first, put it aside, and transfer to the peach incident. Frank discussed the solution to the incident with the five senior leaders of the county. (The five grass-bag leaders discussed the matter for a week without a good idea. Even if Frank comes, the five grasses still cannot have a consistent response.) Cui, one of the five grasses. Weiss is the most radical, and he has a contempt for Frank. (The implication: there is no good way for the five of us, can you solve this problem when Frank comes?) He advocates that principles cannot be broken, no compromise and no compensation. Frank directly interrupted this kind of SB, pointing out: If the county defendant goes bankrupt, your principle has a useless effect, then everyone will be gone. Frank knew that this group of SBs could not be counted on, so he simply gave orders directly (the articles are concise and to the point, and they are all excellent remedies, and none of the five idiots can be imagined.): (1) First remedy: in Tao Tower Warning signs are set up at the front and back to prevent another person from being hit and killed. (2) Turn off the Taota lights, the electricity fee will be converted to the deceased's scholarship, and Taota's electricity bill will be borne by Tao farmers in the future. (3) Dismantle the emergency valve on the tower to save costs. Wu Cao Guran joked about the emergency valve associating it with female genitals, and Frank was dumbfounded by these five fools, so he directly interrupted and went to do it quickly! . . . Russell and Christina have a night meal, first flirt for a while, and Ke proposes to Russell that he wants to change positions and prepare for the open relationship (maybe a female temptation). Although Russell feels reluctant, he also expresses his respect. Gram thoughts. . . .
The next step was to convince the suffering master, Frank came to the memorial evening of the girl's death. The new rookie bodyguard, Mitcham, is not assured that Frank will be single in the crowd. Frank explained to him the qualities that an outstanding leader should have. (Don't be afraid of danger, face up to difficulties.) Frank came to the suffering lord, showing sorrow on his face, just introduced himself, said a "sorrowful by the way" cliché, before he had time to show his eloquence, he was resented The father of the girl interrupted, and the hostility was strong. The mother of the girl was a good wife and good mother with a gentle personality. Fan, swallowed Frank's prepared initial negotiation lines back into his stomach. The first battle was unfavorable, and Frank was reluctant to succumb. Bi Jing, a major event like this, can't be settled in a single conversation. Frank participated in the memorial service at night. He happened to see the pastor and thought of a breakthrough. After the two had a polite remark, Frank wanted to make a fuss at the church service the next day. Frank drove back to the residence that night, got out of the car and touched the tulip (which his wife planted last year) at the door, feeling a little in his heart. . . . Russell poured K powder into the sink, determined to stop taking drugs, and suggested to Christina not to change jobs (a way of showing love). . . . Frank also had to talk about the bill remotely over the phone, and there were a lot of arguments. Taking advantage of the bill, he talked to his wife Claire on the phone, talked on the phone, talked in detail about the origin of the tulip at the door, and relaxed. Claire had just talked about her encounter in the cemetery, and Zoe's text message disturbed Frank's cell phone. Claire took a little vinegar and left the rest of the time to her husband. Fozo, young and old, are in love with each other and send ambiguous text messages to flirt. Fu Yan has important things to do in South Carolina. What is more urgent for Zuo Caojiao than I am. Let Fo see the triumph of the next day: "Starting Point" interview with Zoe. . . . Under the care of the big figures, Zoe has become popular in TV interviews. He can't help but speak his words. Talking about the internal personnel relations of the newspaper, he seems to have the mentality of the newspaper leader. At the same time, Frank and Tom are watching TV interviews. , A secret smile, an upset. . . . Claire's morning exercise passes through the cemetery again, and of course he won't be cheeky and run a circle inside, symbolically bounce a few times at the door, (to ease the frightened mood last time?) Practice another way. . . .
Comment: Olin is undoubtedly not a qualified strategist. He has been in politics for many years, and he has not been mixed in Congress, so he can only be a small county chief. Olin chose the topic very well, preconceived, and provoked the anger of the suffering master. If the result of the battle is maintained, it is possible to bring Frank down. But he just provoked the bitter master, did not pursue the victory, continued his efforts, expanded the result, and stopped and waited for the result, which gave Frank plenty of time to calmly detoxify the trick and turn defeat into victory. Frank is certainly a top-notch strategist. He has tossed around, fully demonstrating his superior ability to dissolve, and further contrasts Olin's incompetence. He is far from Frank's opponent, nor is he worthy of Frank's opponent.
After the choir’s lament was sung, the priest was entrusted to ask Frank to come on stage to give a speech. After Frank came to power, he began to show his personal acting skills (purely acting, acting can indeed win the Oscar.), can't wait to cry, (expressing sympathy for the death of the girl, of course, is also to win the sympathy of everyone here, especially to win the girl's parents (Sympathy to Frank) In a slightly sorrowful tone, he showed off his tongue and vomited lotus flowers. In the name of God, he would not hesitate to drag the old father who has died for many years from the grave to cooperate with the speech. To resonate sadly with the suffering master, eloquence is indeed good. It is said that the two suffering masters are tearful and can't help themselves. Of course, the hostility towards Frank is also greatly reduced. After three meetings with the suffering master, the matter was settled.). . . . Zoe Kung shocked the host. The comments on TV made the editor-in-chief very upset. Naturally, the editor-in-chief was called to the office to reprimand. ) Tang: Your job is to report news, not to become news. (Don't always be in the limelight, do more practical things!) Zuo: I'm promoting our newspaper. (I became the news, and the newspaper is also good.) Tang: You are selling yourself! (The biggest beneficiary is you, not the newspaper.) Zuo: Is it because I said on TV that your nickname made you uncomfortable? I am Dao Qian. Tang used the style of leadership: I don't want you to mention the internal affairs of our newspaper on TV! (You little kid, and you are not a senior leader of this newspaper, you are not qualified to speak those words on the radio! Position your subordinates.) Zuo Chushi didn't want to contradict: Bao Qian, I didn't expect it. . Tang interrupted: Don't interrupt your subordinates when the boss is speaking! Zoe was a little bit dissatisfied: Don't treat me like a three-year-old kid. (The conflict between the elders and the young people started, and the common ills in society.) Tang directly pointed out the reprimand: You are a child, do you think you will become a big man by publishing a few big news? You still have a lot to learn in the future. (Call of elder trainer) Zoe was young and vigorous and contradicted: You are sexist. The boss was very upset now, and he directly adopted the style of power leadership hegemonism: not allowed to be on TV for a month. Zuo: This is not fair. Tang threatened: Do you want to never be on TV? (Your appointment and dismissal rights are in my hands.) After all, Zoe is a subordinate, and he still has to swallow his anger and leave without a word. . . . .
Comment: The first conflict between Zoe and Tom is also a conflict between superiors and subordinates. This is also a common example in society. Zoe did not correct the position of his subordinates. Personality determines fate. This time The hidden danger is also the fuse next time. Zoe is destined to be fired by Tom in the future. (In the second season, Seth and Doug compete for favor in front of Vice President Frank. Seth can properly handle the relationship with his predecessor, Doug, timely and humbly. This is a contrast with the conflict between the two of Tozo.) After all, Tom’s old leader, a newspaper (official) for many years, knew that young people with sharp edges must be suppressed in time to avoid arrogance and madness. (The same is true for leaders in appointing promising young people. They should kill arrogance first, so as not to be frantic and disorderly, and wait until they know how to be low-key and restrained before taking up important positions. This is an appointing technique.) But Tom also forgot one important thing. The thing: Zoe is the upstart appointed by the owner, and the owner values Zoe (naturally because the newspaper is sluggish, and fresh power is needed to regain his reputation.), Tom should also sell three points, and the dog depends on the owner. And after you fired Zoe, how did your editor-in-chief Tang explain to the boss? Tom undoubtedly didn’t think deeply about this matter. After years of in vain, it made the owner quite unhappy. Tom was too old and had nothing to do with his qualifications. As the editor-in-chief, there was no effective means to increase the sales of newspapers, which is no longer practical. Talent, but also to dismiss the promising Zoe. The two things are added together, and it is reasonable for Tom to be dismissed mercilessly by his boss.
Claire came to visit Gillian who was ill, and strongly recommended that she see her personal doctor, to please all parties, and the flattery was full of words. She wanted to reach a cooperation agreement with Gillian and finally achieved her wish. . . . Doug called to complain to Frank. Because of Fal's absence, the less qualified Doug couldn't hold back the scene. The disagreement was too big, causing the union to leave the scene angrily. Frank had a cellphone in his ears and was busy with burgers in both hands. He had no time to spare, so he had to ask Marty to answer the phone first, and promised Marty: Charter school law stickers, performance considerations can be negotiated and compromised (in fact, the union is retained. Slow down strategy). Marty agreed to lobby for some time with the union, and then Frank telegraphed Doug: stick to Matisse Binella (still not at ease with him, to prevent his apostasy from affecting the overall situation.), if necessary, he can use the following three abuses. The trick: Lock the door. . . . Peaceful resolution of the incident can only be done with comfort. It is undoubtedly self-defeating to anger the suffering master. At this time, Frank will have to be soft and show considerable sincerity. Put down his body and make hamburgers to entertain guests. Of course, he must call the pastor. Come. (The pastor is a middleman, and his presence can alleviate the hostile situation.) The mother of the girl is a kind person and her words are modest. After praying, let Fr look at her daughter's mobile phone photo. Of course, Frank has to make a regretful sigh accordingly. Catering to the mentality of the suffering master (the death of such a small person in the hearts of politicians like Frank does not actually produce sympathy), the mother is crying, the father is impatient, emotional, and directly pointed out: you do all this Useless. (We still have to appeal.) Fudian is clear and concise: Then how can I help you? (I'll talk about the requirements.) Father: You can't do anything, she is dead. (Unless you bring her back to life.) Fu said sympathetically: You are right, I can't change this. Then change the conversation and use the first big stick to "tempt": let the city government give you a substantial settlement fee. (That is, a considerable amount of compensation. Although this temptation is said to have no effect at the beginning, it must be put at the beginning, because this is the most important factor in the settlement. In the end, compensation is the most important factor in any dispute. After the later words are slowly negotiated, this article will show its value.) Of course, when my father is angry, he will not agree to this temptation: Are you talking about buying us? (Let us not appeal?) F: No, I said to help you. (Doesn't bitch and whore mean the same thing? But it tastes different in Frank's mouth. He never answers each other's questions directly.) Avoid protracted lawsuits. (This sentence implies a threat, meaning that you have to go to court, it will take a long time, and there may not be a reason for it.) Of course Frank is afraid that the latter sentence will be less irritating. The father of the girl, without waiting for the other party's response, hurriedly changed her words, and gave the following temptation: in the name of a girl, she set up a scholarship in the university she wanted to go to before her death. (Fame and profit are all there, and most of the benefits have been brought up.) Of course, Fu mentioned the third item: remedial measures to ease the heart of the master: pull the billboard, the water tower does not light up, install guardrails and so on. Father interjected: It should have been done this long ago. (Being my daughter would never die.) Frank stared at the girl's father sincerely at this time. When it comes to the most critical sentence, it is also a bottom line: Do you want me to resign? Your word, I will leave immediately. (Although this is an old-fashioned remark, it is also the most effective. The purpose of the Sufferer’s appeal is to hope that the officials will step down. Frank has given enough face and money. With such great sincerity, how could the Sufferer be embarrassed to embarrass him again? What?) The girl's father was silent. Frank knew that the atmosphere was almost over. Finally, he asked the pastor to quote God's name for comfort, and sincerely invited: Would you like me to help you? In the narration sentence, the key to solving this problem is pointed out: if the big person stays humble in front of the small person, the small person can work for the big person. (The old trick to buy people's hearts) The girl's father was completely moved by Frank's continuous emotional card, and he was willing to come back to discuss the scholarship. . . . .
Comment: The Taota incident is a major event threatening Frank's political career. If it is not handled properly, Frank's political life is likely to end. Frank's way of dealing with this matter is nothing more than: attitude issues and compensation issues. In fact, this is similar to the handling of many disputes in today's society. The difficulty of coordinating many disputes is the result of confrontation caused by excessive sentiment and the inadequacy of compensation. Frank can undoubtedly distinguish the priority of the situation and make the necessary concessions in handling the matter. This fully demonstrates his superb resolution ability. With this ability, even if he becomes the president and is attacked by political opponents in the future, he can also come up with countermeasures. Enemy, this is far from the odds of winning compared with the five high-ranking sloppy seniors in the county.
When Kristina wakes up to find Russell working overtime, she is touched in her heart. Out of self-esteem and reserved, she politely agrees to Russell's decision not to quit. . . . Frank settled the suffering master, of course, this matter was not over, and finally had to take advantage of the victory to clean up the culprit Orin. Frank and Sheriff Jean got out of the car, (Jean accompanied him to act as a footnote to Frank's words.) Walking towards Orin who was sitting on the lawn mower, he drew a small shovel out of the tool tube on the grass, and pointed towards Olin. Olin waved a few times. (There was a taste of potential attack, as if someone A was talking with someone B while waving a dagger. This pair B felt a kind of psychological anxiety and won first in terms of momentum. ) Then pointed out that the death of the girl has nothing to do with the Peach Tower, but has nothing to do with the lack of protective fences. (If this kind of words is used to provoke the suffering master, it is definitely more influential than Taota's cause of death), Gene said to the side: It is Olin's responsibility not to install the protective fence. Olin understood: Do you want to give it a go? Of course, Frank has more than this little skill. He took out his previous favor and threatened it again: In the past, your house occupied the place where the power line of the power grid passed. It was me and Gene helped that you did not demolish your house. This year we Won't help this anymore. Olin dead duck mouth: You never want to do this. Frank took a step closer, looking down at Olin with a strong aura: I can do this. I won 11 elections in this constituency (there are a lot of them, and there are indeed some advantages), do you think it can be done by luck and handshake? (My Frank is more capable than your Orin. Can you beat me?) Orin was captured by Frank's series of tricks. He has no power to fight back, and of course he has no ability to fight back. However, Frank's talk changed and Olin couldn't refuse: But I don't like revenge (fake), if I can reach the commonwealth (there are political transactions below), I can't bear to see anyone lose. I will help you in the fourth constituency. You will keep your house, and I will keep the fifth constituency. Don’t look for things on the Peach Tower anymore. Are you okay? Olin was speechless. Although he was defeated completely, he was given alms to the electoral district and house by Frank. Can he still refuse Fr's "kindness"? Frank closing: You think about it. (How else can you think about it? No election.) I look forward to you becoming a member of Congress, (have you always wanted to enter Congress) to oppose the party (it is estimated that Olin is a Republican, otherwise he would not borrow Peach Tower." The incident attacked Frank,) It is always good to have a friend. (If there are more friends, Frank will sometimes use the opposition Republican Party to help in Congress. For example, in bill matters, he uses the Republican Party to force Speaker Boch to pass the bill. This is detailed in Episode 4.). . . . . Frank picked a large bunch of white tulips (his wife's painstaking effort) that symbolized innocence and brought them back to give away his wife. (It's so romantic There is a lover, which old man will give flowers to his old wife nowadays? ). . . Zoe called Frank on his way home. He really needed Frank’s advice (the old man has rich work experience and is a role model for young people). Should he accept an interview with The Evening Report. Frank guided him around a circle and finally let Zoe understand In order to make a choice, of course Zoe has scruples about Editor-in-Chief Tang’s ban. Frank enlightened his firm mind: people who do big things must eventually do things independently, and they won’t be able to trust others for the rest of their lives. . . . . Frank returned victorious with flowers (tulips) in hand. He first answered the report of the female secretary Cathy, and then ordered Michaum to hand the flowers to his wife. As soon as Frank entered the office, the arguing union members were all solemnly waiting for the boss's orders. . . . Claire walked to the cemetery alone, and saw a pair of young lovers wandering around on the grass. Was it affectionate and condemned for the quietness of the cemetery, or was he guilty and calm about his disrespectful running in the cemetery in the past? (They can make each other in the cemetery, so I don’t need to feel guilty anymore if I run a long distance in the cemetery.). . . . Micham arranges the flowers at F's house and leaves (his job will be more than just a bodyguard driver in the future). . . . The third episode is over.
Comment: Compared with the bill incident, the Taota incident is just a small matter with potential harm. Although it is tricky, it is not difficult for Frank to deal with, and the bill is the most important matter. Frank cannot be in Taota" It is too entangled in small matters and must be resolved quickly, so as to free up hands and seize the time to deal with the bill quickly. Frank settled the suffering master, and before leaving the county, he had to stop Orin from acting rashly. Otherwise, if Orin left, if Orin went to instigate the suffering master to appeal again, then Frank would have lost all of his work. Frank couldn't settle the suffering and it was over, and Olin had to be scrupulous, so that he would not dare to cause trouble in the future. (Zhuge Liang wanted to kill Meng Huo easily, but when he killed Meng Huo, the other Nan Barbarians could not be convinced and would continue to rebel, so he had to try his best to capture his heart and surrender his heart so that Nan Barbarian would never rebel again.) According to Frank's. It's not difficult for a resourceful man to bring down Olin. Frank is a first-rate strategist after all. Any action must be profitable, and he can't just breathe out. Olin is not a worthless little person. After all, being a sheriff has some advantages, and it can also be regarded as a talent that can be used. Frank first used the protective fence and the house to calm Olin and let him go after he left. Don't dare to stir up trouble again, and then use the election to turn the enemy into a friend to achieve an election together. Why not do it? Olin may have room for improvement in the future, and maybe there will be time to use Olin in the future, so why bother to make such an enemy and do harm in the future? With this, the matter ended perfectly, threatening to lure the two big sticks to subdue Olin, and in the future one less worries, and one less adversary.
