Chapter 10 ["Japanese traitor"] (Part 1)

The car is in Mercedes-Benz, and Yang Wei is obviously very familiar with the roads in Toronto. While driving steadily, the expression on her face is somewhat unfathomable.

Just when I asked her what she wanted me to help, Yang Wei took out a very thin folder and threw it to me.

"What?"

"You can take a look first."

I opened it and the first one was a personal resume document. It was full of English and there was a photo in the upper right corner. This was a yellow-type old man in his sixties. He looked very fat, with small squinting eyes, wearing eyes, and a serious face. His hair was gray, but his eyes were very deep and he looked very energetic.

I flipped back casually and there were a lot of color photos, and the angle was very straight. I was stunned for a moment before I realized that these photos were probably not taken by projections, but were taken by regular photographers. Whether it was lighting or angles, they were very professional.

In the photo, the old man made various poses, some were speaking, some were meditating, and some took photos with others...

"Who is this?" I roughly looked at these photos and turned back to the first page...

U.S. House of Representatives... Members?

I was stunned for a moment, but then I saw the name on it...

"Jason...Nakata?" I blurted out, "Damn Japanese?"

Yang Wei looked at the car without turning his eyes and said quickly, "Yes, Jason & Nakata. Male, 63 years old, the third generation of Japanese in the United States, was born in the United States and grew up in the United States. Except for the blood flowing from his body, it is the blood of the Japanese. Others, he can be said to be a complete American. He officially became a member of the state legislator in 1996, won the election with an absolute advantage in 2001, and became a member of the House of Representatives and a member of the Democratic Party... It is very firm, and if nothing unexpected happens, he will gradually enter the core circle of the Democratic Party within two years..."

After Yang Wei finished speaking, he sighed and looked at me: "These are probably the information. Behind him are some of his personal resumes, and..."

I was a little impatient: "What are you doing for showing me a Japanese information?"

"I'll ask for your help." Yang Wei seemed to smile, and she glanced at me quickly: "I guessed that you would have this kind of reaction... Alas, I know you hate Japanese people. I'm the same... But you must help me with this."

I frowned: "What do you... want me to help you? A Japanese-American American Representative...you should explain it carefully."

"To be precise, it's a Democratic member of the House of Representatives, he's from the Democratic Party." Yang added with a smile.

"I care about his party." I suddenly became suspicious. I looked at her and said in a deep voice: "You...didn't you ask me to kill him for you?"

Yang smiled and glanced at me quickly, looking a little charming: "Of course not! You are really good at joking."

"You'd better start from the beginning."

"Well." Yang Wei planned for a while and said slowly: "The US Congressional midterm election is not far away. Now all parties are raising funds in a tense manner..." She thought for a while and said with a smile: "Maybe I need to explain to you... In the United States, the presidential election is once every four years. But the Congressional election is once every two years, and it is called the midterm election. The US Congress is divided into the House of Representatives and the Senate. Every two years, the Democrats and Republicans will fight to the death. Whoever can get a majority in Congress can effectively control power... Do you understand this truth?"

I smiled: "I've been to middle school at least!"

"Okay..." Yang Wei sighed: "Now the US president is a Republican party, so the Democratic Party can only find a way to win the Congressional election and fight as many seats as possible for Congressmen... So the election of Congressional membership is also crucial to them... And this Japanese congressman is a Democratic."

"In fact, the so-called election is just a political game. The battlefield of competition between the two sides is a struggle between politicians, but behind it, there must be a lot of financial support... that is, what we usually call "political donations", do you understand?" She smiled and said slowly: "When it comes to building momentum for one's own side, television, newspapers, and all media carpet propaganda, and trying every means to buy intelligence and expose the other party's scandals, all these cost a lot of manpower and material resources... In short, it is... money! It requires a lot of money!!"

"In the United States, those big politicians are supported by big consortiums. The traditional forces, big families and big chaebols in the United States will use funds to support the political parties they choose. Once their supporters come to power, they will be very beneficial, policy support, etc. The matter here is very complicated... And this Japanese congressman has not yet become a real 'big politician'. Now he is just a potential person developing into the core circle. Therefore, those real big consortiums will not waste money on such a quasi-first-class or second-rate politician. And now, facing elections, he is also coming out to "recruit sponsorship" everywhere... Do you understand?"

I listened to Yang Wei's words patiently and exhaled: "I probably understand...but what does it mean to tell me these?"

Yang smiled strangely: "If there was no accident, you would see this Japanese parliamentarian at Mr. Thorin's banquet in a while."

Sponsorship...

I said in disbelief: "No way... Did he come to Canada to ask Solin for sponsorship? Solin is Canada's largest gang leader... A MP asks the gang for money for his own election. If it is exposed, he will be finished!"

Yang Wei's expression on his face did not change at all. He asked me in a calm tone: "What is this? Is the money of the underworld not money? The US Congress once every two years, so many members of the parliament participated in the election... Do you know where the political donations behind them come from? Do you think this is ridiculous? I tell you... at least in Nevada... there are some families in Las Vegas who give a lot of money to those politicians every year to vote for them! And Jason & Nakata is still smart, and he still ran far away to Canada to attract sponsorship..."

Yang Wei explained to me patiently: "Mr. Thorin has been working hard to bleach in the past two years. He has many legal industries and companies under his name. These are not afraid of exposure... Moreover, although Canada has always been the backyard of the United States, it is not the United States after all, and it can effectively avoid the media and opponents' eyes and ears. Others are not easy to find out his source of funds... Also, do you know that Mr. Thorin is preparing for an ocean transportation group? Humph, he has done his best in smuggling business, and now he has switched to the legitimate ocean transportation... And the branch he is about to set up in the United States is just in need..." Yang Wei sighed and shook his head: "Chen Yang, these political matters are too complicated, and I can't explain them to you for a while... But this Japanese is indeed here to attract sponsorship."

"Okay." I nodded: "Then what does this have to do with me? What do you need me to do for you?"

Yang Wei did not answer me directly, but continued: "Solin's legitimate business is placed under the name of a group company... And now, you use drug sources and Solin to do business in exchange for market share of legitimate business. If I have no mistakes in guessing, Solin will give Fang Baye a part of his own group's shares in exchange for drug sources in the next two years... So, morally, if Solin invests in the name of the group to sponsor politicians... Then, you must also make Fang Baye nod. Of course, this is just on the scene, and Fang Baye should not interfere in these matters... But after all, he will become a major shareholder in Solin Group. Therefore, when paying the money, Fang Baye needs to nod and sign, even if it is just a look."

She finished speaking this in one breath, then smiled and said, "Mr. Thorin has not made a decision yet. After all, it is beneficial to him to fund a US congressman, but it is not very attractive. For Mr. Thorin, he is still considering whether he agrees in the end... My current prediction is 50%, half and half. In this case... Mr. Fang Ba's role is reflected... Although this is not related to Mr. Fang Ba's affairs, if he only makes a symbolic opinion as a major shareholder, it may affect Mr. Thorin's decision! Although Thorin is a very independent person, he does not have the final answer to this matter. It can be said that he has been hesitating now."

"What the hell do you want me to do?" I smiled bitterly.

"It's very simple... I hope you can find a way to influence Mr. Fang Ba, and then ask Mr. Fang Ba to suggest Mr. Solin... to reject the Japanese request." She thought for a while: "If possible, it's better to make any conflicts between them, which is the best!"

I was stunned and couldn't help but touch my nose: "That's it?"

"That's it."
