Although Li Mu seems to be very mature and mature enough to deal with people, Li Mu is still too young to be the chairman of the National Rifle Association, at least not now.
Burnside was only polite, seeing that the shooting competition was expected to become the sweetheart of the Rifle Association, and whoever dared to spy on the position of president of the National Rifle Association at such a time would tear him to pieces.
It only took ten minutes for Li Mu to gain Burnside's trust, and Burnside immediately decided to have dinner with Li Mu to discuss how to turn the "money-losing goods" of the shooting competition into a profitable business.
Li Mu was very concerned about this matter, and regarded this as the best way to gain Burnside's favor, and after returning to the hotel, Li Mu closed the door and wrote a plan as quickly as possible, and handed it to Burnside when he was preparing dinner.
Will also knew the significance of this matter, when Li Mu had some plans, Will moved a chair and sat at Li Mu's door, not letting anyone disturb Li Mu.
Soon, dinner time came as scheduled, and Li Mu and Will went to St.
George's Restaurant on Pennsylvania Avenue in District of Columbia to have dinner with Burnside.
Burnside was not alone, and there was a middle-aged man in his forties who was waiting in the restaurant with Burnside.
After seeing Li Mu, Burnside immediately introduced Li Mu: "This is Ream, this is a terrible little guy, I thought he was just playing with guns, and he was lucky enough to become a bounty hunter, but I didn't expect him to surprise me today." ” The middle-aged man did not respond to Burnside's words, and looked Li Mu up and down with interested eyes, this way of looking at people was a bit rude, but it was obvious that none of them, including Burnside, thought it was a problem.
"Hello Ream, my name is Abel and Abel Raenburn Corbyn."
Abel took the initiative to introduce himself, and took the initiative to extend his hand to Li Mu.
"Mr.
Abel, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Li Mu's way of shaking hands was superficial, and in the face of strangers, Li Mu was still reserved enough.
After several people sat down, Li Mu handed the prepared plan to Burnside: "Mr.
Burnside, this is a plan I wrote according to your wishes, please correct it." ” Li Mu was also shameless enough to seize every opportunity to pat himself on the back and attribute his ideas about the commercial operation of the shooting competition to Burnside.
"No, no, no, you don't have to be like this Reem, what should be yours is yours, and no one can take it."
Burnside looked at Li Mu with a deep gaze, and took the plan and didn't rush to read it first, but handed the plan to Able.
It seems that Burnside's status is a bit special, at least his status is not lower than that of Burnside, and when Burnside handed over the plan, Able did not refuse, and began to look through it.
During the time when Able was looking through the plan, Burneside no longer talked to Li Mu, but chatted with Will about the Civil War and the current National Rifle Association.
Tastes good The thin two-page plan book, Abel read it for half an hour, and after reading the last word, Elb put down the plan and looked at Li Mu with a complicated gaze: "It's a pity, how good it would have been if you had come to Washington three months ago." ” Three months ago, that is, in the preparatory stage of the Rifle Association's shooting competition, if Li Mu had taken out the current plan at that time, it would have been said that the Rifle Association would have made a lot of money now.
This can also be regarded as a compliment, and there is a regret of "hating not meeting when you are not married".
Li Mu didn't feel regretful, now in this situation to take out this plan is the right time, if it is taken out before the shooting competition starts, then there is no value of comparison, now look at the various business plans in the plan, and then look at the shooting competition that is going on in reality, the contrast is obvious.
So Li Mu is very carefree: "It's not too late, even if it doesn't work this year, then there will be next year, if we fix the form of the shooting competition and hold it once a year, then it's not too late to start when." ” It's really not too late, especially for Li Mu.
Originally, even if there was no shooting competition led by the Rifle Association, Li Mu was ready to hold a shooting competition in the name of Junma Weapons Company, so as to open up the popularity of Junma Weapons Company as quickly as possible and open up sales channels for the best-selling products of Junma Weapons Company.
Now this is not bad, the shooting competition led by the rifle association has a national background, and the influence is much greater than that of the horse weapons company, and if the horse arms company becomes the main sponsor of the shooting competition, the effect will be the same, if not better.
"Reem, I heard that you are a student of the Qing Empire, so now that you have become an American citizen, are you not worried that the Qing Empire will settle accounts with you in the future" Abel no longer dwelled on the commercialization that had not yet begun, but remained interested in Li Mu himself.
"In fact, it is precisely because I offended a certain powerful person in the Qing Empire that I want to become an American citizen, if it is more precise, I should be regarded as political asylum."
Li Mu did not shy away from saying that this kind of thing cannot be hidden, especially for Able and Bernside, who are also powerful people in the United States.
"Hahahaha, don't worry, in the United States, you will get everything you want, this plan, can I take it away" Abel didn't even want to eat, and was very anxious.
"Of course you can" Li Mu will not refuse such a request, is it a plan, if you want it, there are many.
Abel didn't talk nonsense, and he didn't mean to sit down to eat, so he said to Burnside, took the plan and hurriedly left.
Watching Abel leave in a hurry, Burnside looked at Li Mu with a gaze full of appreciation: "Ream, you are going to be lucky this time, Mr.
Abel is the husband of Mr.
President's sister, the chief of staff of the President, if you can get Mr.
Abel's appreciation, then your horse weapons company will be unimpeded." ” It turned out that Able was Grant's brother-in-law, no wonder he had such a big shelf in front of Burnside.
It is said that at this time, the U.S. government has not yet implemented a civilian system, and most of the main official positions in the U.S. government are monopolized by Republican-born officials from the North, many of whom were officers during the Civil War, starting from the inauguration of Ulysses Grant as president in 1869, the Republican Party occupied the presidential throne for 16 years, and it was not until 1885 that the Democratic Party broke the Republican monopoly.
In the past 16 years, American officialdom has become a stage for soldiers, and soldiers dominate almost everything, and soldiers are not good at economics, so "imperial relatives" like Abel have become a potential dominant force.
Li Mu didn't know about Erb's existence, if he knew that Able would take Li Mu's plan book, Li Mu wouldn't have to be so troublesome, even if he got a few blank pieces of paper, and then added a few checks to it, he could achieve the best effect.
Maybe it's more useful than a proposal
