Chapter 28 Huge Response

Yes, next to this news, there is a short editor's note. They expressed great concern about Wang Lei's "community revival" and mentioned that Wang Lei once talked to reporters about "Bowling Alone". They planned to conduct an in-depth series of reports on this topic.

"Wow, this is really good news!"

Wang Lei smiled and patted the newspaper. Although the Tribune was not focusing on the campaign or himself, "community revival" was his campaign program and he initiated it first. The more popular this topic is, the more benefits it will be for him.

Good news comes one after another. Pittsburgh Cable News, a local TV station affiliated with NBC, one of the three largest commercial broadcasting and television companies in the United States, also broadcast the news that "the 18-year-old boy ran for town mayor" in the evening news. Rachel also told Emily that the news station will decide whether to follow up and report based on the feedback from the audience. At present, the situation seems pretty good, and the station has an intention in this regard.

"Damn it!" Hawke angrily picked up the remote control, turned off the TV with the big screen, then leaned back and leaned against the sofa, gasping continuously.

"Hawk, what's wrong with you? Are you worried about that little baby?" Hawk's wife, a middle-aged woman who was just over 40 years old, but her face was covered with wrinkles and her skin looked particularly loose, picked up a snake fruit in dissatisfaction and bit it.

"This news is not that magical. Our publicity is very loud, and you will definitely be elected!"

Hawke stood up and shook his head in annoyance: "I know, I know I can win, but these little bastards are too troublesome. If I can't be elected with an absolute advantage, even if I win, it will be a farce."

Hawke felt the pressure and was on the newspapers and TV, which meant that this matter would become the focus of everyone.

There were 3,000 people in the town, nearly 2,000 voters of the age of voting, and less than 400 votes in the last session, and he received only more than 200 votes.

In the past two years, his job was pretty good, he had no mistakes, nor had he had excellent results. The number of votes he could get this time was at most the same as the last time, which was more than 200 or less than 300 votes. If the remaining people, out of opposition to him, they thought that the 18-year-old mayor was quite interesting, or if they voted for Rex, his votes would not be so safe.

"Then keep increasing their efforts. Aren't they going to the newspaper? Then let's go to them every day and crush them to death," Hawke's wife made a palm-cutting move and said fiercely.

"Rex, it's amazing!"

Wang Lei and his friends just finished watching the news at home and clapped their hands together excitedly to celebrate. There were not many opportunities to go on TV, which shows that they are being watched.

"Rex!" Hu Shuying took the phone and shook it at Wang Lei, asking him to go over and answer.

"It's Grandpa Abel."

"Grandpa Abel!" Wang Lei took the phone and suddenly realized what the phone meant. He felt ecstatic: "Grandpa, have you watched TV?"

"Yes, Rex, you did a great job!" Grandpa Abel said softly on the phone, praising Wang Lei's "Community Revival Plan": "It's great, I think you should have read that book seriously."

"Yes, Grandpa Abel, I'm watching seriously and hope to practice them," Wang Lei calmed everyone down and said seriously.

Abel smiled on the other end of the phone: "It's very good. Although I don't know if you can be a good mayor, I will support you in reviving the community. If you have any needs or questions, remember to come to me."

"Thank you grandpa!"

Rex hung up the phone with some disappointment, but Grandpa Abel refused to stand up and help him run for mayor.

"Ray, Grandpa Abel doesn't want to influence everyone's choice. This is what we have told you, the doctrine of the mean," Hu Shuying said from the side.

"I know." Wang Lei nodded, expressed his understanding, and then turned to his friends and said, "Good news, Grandpa Abel has seen our news, and he will support us."

"Wow!" Everyone cheered excitedly. Grandpa Abel was an elder in the town. Almost everyone grew up listening to the stories he told, and had unusual respect for the old man.

"Emily, tomorrow you go to Grandpa Abel's house, give him our newspaper, and ask him to write inscriptions, or write something." Wang Lei smiled. The old man was unwilling to stand up, and he wanted to exert his positive energy.

The phone ringing of Wang Lei's family began to ring constantly. Brady, Eric and others called him to congratulate him and expressed optimism about the prospects of the "Community Revitalization" plan. In addition, some people who were not familiar with called Wang Lei's parents and asked them about the details.

"If Rachel's special report plan can be realized, that's great!" Emily said with a smile.

The influence of television seems to be far beyond newspapers, and just a small piece of news has caused a huge response in Braddock.

If the report can be continued, the results will be self-evident.

Wang Lei smiled and shook his head: "It may be difficult. Don't forget Hawk's influence. NBC and the News Channel are both left-leaning and have a very good relationship with the Democratic Party. Hawk has a huge influence in the Pittsburgh Democratic Party."

The Post's reaction can illustrate the problem. Hawke cannot stop the news from being published in the Post, but he can influence the Post's attitude. They just briefly reported the matter, and their terms even tended to Hawke.

If it weren't for Rachel, the news station's report would probably not be so objective. The media have a position, it depends on who can influence or even control the media.

After watching TV, Wang Lei and Colin and Emily discussed the arrangement of the second tabloid. The first tabloid was printed. Douglas, Luca and others would stuff the newspaper into the mailbox of the town residents at night.

The newspaper is called "The Braddock Man". The final version is eight-open and two-page, which means that one eight-open white paper is printed on two sides. If the layout is not staggered, it would be more like a big leaflet.

The front page of the tabloid is filled with Wang Lei’s information, his campaign program, and the activities of the two organizations Braddocks and I Love Braddock. The second page is that the back of the paper is printed with some campaign jokes, development cases, current affairs commentary, etc., all articles collected by Alvin from the Internet, and it looks very interesting.

Wang Lei is responsible for determining the direction and overall layout idea, Emily is responsible for organizing the manuscripts, some of which are required to be written by her, while Colin has to use the layout software to arrange the layout and then print it through Wang Yang.

Because there are many things to do during the day, they have to determine the layout at night. Colin's special ability saves them a lot of trouble and does not need to operate on the computer. He can only look at the paragraphs and word count of the article to calculate how big the layout they want to occupy - usually the error is minimal, so the final layout can be finalized soon.

Wang Lei hopes that this tabloid they control can achieve unexpected results.

It was not until he was sleeping that Wang Lei had the opportunity to open the presidential book in his mind and saw the changes above at a glance - a new badge appeared, it was the "Town Star" badge, which was a reward for him to appear on the news media and become a news figure.

The "Town Star" badge can be exchanged for the primary "Town Star" halo, which can increase its popularity and favorability among the residents of the town.

"marvelous!"

Wang Lei couldn't help but applaud. This is a charming halo covered by the entire map. It is not like the specific halo like "young leaders" and "friends of the community", which can only affect a specific group of people.

The population that the town star halo can affect is also specific - all the residents of the town, which is undoubtedly of great help to him.

Unfortunately, the Town Star badge has just been lit up halfway, and the experience and reputation he has gained are not enough to exchange for the Town Star Halo.

We must continue to increase the exposure in the media! Wang Lei turned over this page helplessly, and opened the simulation training aura with expectations for the future. He has been busy these days, and now he has the opportunity to experience this newly emerging simulation aura.

After confirming that using the halo, the President's Book provides some specific scenes, with a total of eight simulation halos. The higher the level, the more simulated scenes it provides. The advanced halos can even be created by themselves and completely as they like.

Wang Lei chose the scene of "Rally of Ten Thousand People". After confirming, he immediately found himself on a podium where ten Thousand People gathered, facing the dense and spectacular crowd, their breathing sounds like the waves of Lake Erie, whistling towards him.

The scene was very real, and Wang Lei could even see the expression on everyone's face. Some people were yelling at him and gestured vulgar gestures. If they hadn't known that this was a simulated environment, they would definitely think it was true.

Even if he knew it, Wang Lei felt extremely pressured. He gave a speech in front of tens of thousands of people, which was a completely different concept from giving a speech in front of dozens or hundreds of people.

Wang Lei stood in front of the microphone, and just opened his mouth, he was drowned by a whistling sound...

ps: We also recommend it. Whether we can become a "media star" depends on everyone. Today, a post appeared in the book review, saying that my members have few clicks and many recommendation votes, and said that I have swiped votes. Damn, do I need to swipe this data? The first page of the newcomer list is not on, and the end of the newcomer list is swaying. Is there anyone who swipes this way? Of course, this also shows one thing, that is, our readers are more enthusiastic about voting, and I want to thank everyone. There is few clicks because there is no recommendation. In addition to the original few chapters, the exposure rate is too low. Now that I recommend it, click will definitely come up, but I still need to ask everyone to vote more, please actively participate in community life and community construction, and push this book up, thank you everyone.
