Chapter 7 A blow to the head
Account manager, press spokesperson, volunteer worker coordinator are all the most basic equipment for a campaign team, and the role of fundraising manager is also very important. The head of the fan club and the head of the online publicity are specially set by Wang Lei based on the characteristics of Luca and Alvin. They may play an unexpected role.
All these arrangements were made by Wang Lei racked his brains last night. He had to let everyone find a place and do their best without delaying things. This is not simple.
He even feels that his organizational ability and the way he considers problems are improving, and even if he fails in the end, he will gain a lot.
Of course, he will not fail! Wang Lei clenched his fists and was full of confidence.
The role of the young leader's halo is also very obvious. Last semester, Wang Lei's campaign for the president of the Student Autonomous Association, Luca, Doug, and others are not as straightforward as they are today. Wang Yang even voted for other candidates, and everyone's enthusiasm is not as high as it is now.
If it were before, they wouldn't be so easy to convince.
Now, everyone is very cooperative and there are no surprises.
His campaign team also lacks a key figure, that is, the campaign manager. The campaign manager is responsible for comprehensive coordination. He must have certain political experience and know how to manage a team. Many campaign managers are full-time. They manage the campaign team like managing a company. The candidates are the company's products, brands and images.
Good campaign managers are very popular. There are many elections in the United States, big and small. They don’t have to worry about not being able to find a job. They are also picky about jobs. They don’t have much hope of success and don’t have much impact on campaigns.
Although Braddock is young, he cannot be underestimated when he is running for mayor. Wang Lei plans to work as a campaign manager himself first, and then decide whether he should ask for another job as a campaign manager according to the situation.
Wang Lei took the time to read the presidential letter and found that the organizational work just now directly increased his political experience value, and the politician medal lit up one-third.
The Young Leader's Medal has also changed, about one-fifth of it.
"Brother, and I, your most beautiful and smartest sister, won't you forget me, right?" Wang Hua saw that everyone had arrangements, but he didn't mention himself, and he pouted his lips unhappily.
"Uh!" Wang Lei did not consider Wang Hua. Seeing his sister like this, he might not be able to explain it. He was quick to be wise and said with a smile: "Huahua, you are my assistant. If I have any problems in the future, you will be by your side. You must also be responsible for contacting students under the ninth grade to let them publicize our young people's demands to the people at home."
Wang Hua immediately raised his little breasts that had just begun to develop: "Okay, I will let them all vote for you."
After allocating the work, Wang Lei sent everyone the election outline drafted last night: "Tell me, let's see what needs to be supplemented and adjusted. If we want to do it, we must do the best."
According to Wang Lei's plan, after establishing an election organization, the first thing they have to do is to officially announce their participation in the election and understand their wishes through face-to-face communication with voters.
The way to declare is simple, you can directly promote it on the streets or in the community by distributing leaflets, posting posters, and conducting direct publicity on the streets or in the community.
It is very important to understand the will of voters. Only by fully understanding everyone’s ideas can they formulate targeted campaign strategies, including the campaign platform.
There are three days to do these tasks. During these three days, they will also collect signatures from twenty registered voters. Three days later, Wang Lei’s 18th birthday, and he can formally register with the Election Commission for elections.
On his birthday, he will hold a grand gathering to invite his classmates, friends, neighbors, and voters who support him to attend. This will be the first time he faces so many voters, and he will speak in public and issue a campaign statement.
"Hi, Rex, don't worry. On your birthday, I will bring a fan club to support you, Dong Chacha." Luca heard that there was a party and began to twist his big ass again.
Colin pushed the glasses frame and said calmly: "The plan is OK, the time may be a little tight. How many voters can you visit in three days?"
"Time is very tight, so I need everyone's help. Let's divide the work. Alvin, please help me find some running leaflets online and draw some of our own flyers and posters." Wang Lei looked at Alvin, who immediately nodded: "Okay!"
"Wang Yang, after Alvin's things are ready, you can find a place to print it. You can get some money you need first, and I'll give it to you afterwards." Wang Lei continued.
Wang Yang opened his mouth and wanted to raise objections, but when he saw Wang Hua's compelling gaze, he quickly closed his mouth and nodded.
"Doug, please help me see how many volunteers can be found and deliver leaflets from door to door."
"There are also Colin, Luca, and Emily. Each of us think about which neighbors and friends can visit us. Let's organize a list now. I will visit you one by one in the next few days, so as to get the support of some residents first." The plan Wang Lei planned tonight was quite general, and in terms of details, he had to discuss and decide on the spot.
After finalizing the next plan, Wang Lei, Colin and others immediately began to discuss the first residents to visit, and started visiting from the people around Wang Lei and Colin.
This is their first time participating in the adult world campaign. Starting from familiar people, once they find the problem, there is still a chance to make up for it. Wang Lei is very motivated, but not reckless.
The first person Wang Lei chose was Emily's parents, because Emily said that after she went back yesterday, she mentioned to her parents about Wang Lei's election for mayor during dinner, and they seemed to be very interested.
In order to win a good start, Wang Lei decided to use Emily's parents as the first visitor.
The others acted separately, and Wang Lei only took his sister Wang Hua to Emily's house. After all, there was no appointment to visit. If there were too many people, it would be a bit abrupt.
When he was about to arrive at Emily's house, Wang Lei suddenly felt a little nervous and was riding his bicycle slower and slower. This was his first official election and he would embark on his own presidential journey.
"Brother, ride quickly, Sister Emily's house is right in front!" Wang Hua was talking all the way, and suddenly found that the person he was talking to was not by his side. He fell behind and immediately shouted unhappily.
Wang Lei was startled: "Ah, it's here!"
"Brother, what are you thinking?" Wang Hua shook the ponytail behind his head in dissatisfaction.
Wang Lei smiled awkwardly, straightened his back, took a deep breath, trying to get rid of his emotional tension: "Oh, I'm thinking about something."
Emily's house is southeast of the town, near the Allegheny River. The house is a two-story building with red exterior walls, columns and roofs, and the corridors, doors and windows are white. The area is larger than that of Wang Lei's house. There is a large lawn and flower bed in front of the house, which looks picturesque.
Emily's father, Brady, was a tall white man who served as a manager at Thomson Steel Factory, and her mother, Donna, was a clerk in the town. She was dignified and enthusiastic.
Today is the weekend. When Wang Lei and the others arrived, Brady and Donna were in the yard outside the door. Brady was holding a huge gardener's cutter in his hand, fiddling with a half-person-tall holly, while Donna was holding a squirt and watering the rose in front of the door. Seeing them, Donna greeted them enthusiastically: "It's Rex and Hayley, you are welcome to come to your house to play."
They were very familiar with Wang Lei and Wang Hua because the brother and sister had been here more than once. Wang Hua happily replied the gift and jumped over to help Donna, but Wang Lei seemed a little restrained.
"Uncle Brady, Aunt Donna, I'm here today...I want to tell you something. I plan to participate in the mayor's election next month. I mean, the election for the mayor of Braddock town." Wang Lei stood at the door, gestured, and said seriously.
Brady stopped the action, put the gardener's cut on the corridor, looked at Wang Lei, shrugged and said, "Well, I know, Emily told us."
Wang Lei moved his fingers and wanted to raise his hand, but he felt it was inappropriate. His hands suddenly became redundant and he didn't know where to put them. Brady's reaction was a little beyond his expectations. Shouldn't he express his enthusiasm and interest? Why did he seem so cold?
Wang Lei's brain was spinning at high speed, and he forced himself to calm down and show his best side. This was the first attack in the whole game, and he couldn't mess it up.
"Yes, I have decided that Uncle Brady and Aunt Donna are voters and celebrities of Braddock, so I came today to ask you what do you think about the management of the town? As a campaigner, I need to listen to everyone's opinions." Wang Lei spread his hands and said with a smile.
"Oh, that's it, then please come in and talk!" Brady waved his head and signaled Wang Lei to enter the house with him.
Donna also walked towards the room with the chattering Wang Hua: "Rex, come in!"
The Brady's cold reaction caught Wang Lei off guard, but his competitive heart cheered him up. No matter what, he must win their support.
"Rex, Emily told us that you want to run for mayor because you want to preserve the history of the town, including libraries, football fields, and old neighborhoods. Is this the way of life here? " Brady reached out and asked Wang Lei to sit on the sofa. He leaned against the sofa, crossed his legs, picked up a magazine, and said casually.
Brady's carelessness made Wang Lei feel despised. He sat upright, looked directly at the other person, and cooperated with the movements in his hands and said loudly: "Yes, libraries, football fields, including gymnasiums, concert halls, these are all what we need. Without these, we have no place to read, teenagers have no place to play, they will become idle, and we have nothing to do."
"Haha, Rex, I have to say that you have a lot of ideas, unlike those teenagers who only know how to surf the Internet and play games, but have you ever thought that you want to protect Braddock's tradition, so what should you do if Braddock's development?" Brady put the magazine on her legs, ignored Wang Lei's burning gaze, chuckled, and said slowly.
"Without development, new industries cannot be introduced, and population and income cannot be introduced. What do you use to maintain the library? And what are you talking about gymnasiums and concert halls? Do you use teachers' salaries and education funds? Or are the costs of cleaning up garbage, repairing roads, and building lawns?"
"You have to know that the town only has so much money. In order to maintain a library that doesn't work much, and in order to play the ball, we have to endure the garbage and weeds all over the streets?" Brady's voice was not loud, but these words were like a slap, hitting them over.
