[This year, a young man with long hair, a big beard, and a shiny disco jacket came to Charles, hoping that he could fund a university project. ]

[This guy who looked like a fool had no idea that Charles Koch would agree to the project and invest $150,000. ]

[Why did Charles Koch agree so readily? ].

[Because it coincides with his own~ideas. ]

[For the money from Koch Industries under the guise of charitable funds, Charles Koch had long felt that there must be a better place to go that would maximize the interests of the Koch family. ]

[In Charles' idea, funding university projects is a very good way. 】

【Universities are the cradles of future elites. If you instill your right-wing ideas there and cultivate a group of people with the same political views as you, and then send them to the political and cultural circles when they become elites, and then infiltrate the mainstream political culture, then these people will be of great value to Koch. 】

Barrage flew out:

"Good guy, this is going to play Infernal Affairs."

"This mind is indeed better than his father's, and he can see the long term."

"..."

The plane of the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao nodded slightly.

This person is really a character.

When competing for power with his brothers, he acted decisively and did whatever it took.

And at this time, the idea of ​​"sponsoring university projects" shows his long-term vision.

And, from personally participating in the game to behind-the-scenes layout, the adjustment of this strategy also proves that this person is good at learning lessons from failure.

And more.

Is this young man who appeared this time the counselor who will help this person achieve great things in the future?

While thinking, Cao Cao continued to look at the giant screen in the sky.

……

[Let’s talk about the present. ]

[This long-haired young man is 27-year-old Richard Fink, the first important military advisor of the Koch brothers, nicknamed: Pirate. ]

[In the late 1980s, with his help, the Koch brothers realized that the enemies of Koch Industries were not in the government, but in university classrooms, the media and scientific research institutions. They were left-wing intellectuals who advocated equal rights and that companies must pay for environmental pollution. ]

[Instead of spending a lot of energy to deal with it in court, it is better to become a new ideological creator, influence the brains of the Eagle Sauce people from the source, create elites who share the same political views as themselves, and create changes like manufacturing products. ]

[Fink designed a blueprint for the Koch brothers, called the "Creation Plan." 】

[First step: Invest in intellectuals, support conservative ideas, and turn their ideas into primary products. 】

[Second step: Invest in think tanks to turn ideas into policies. 】

[Finally, fund citizen groups and lead them to put pressure on the government to implement policies. 】

[In short,It is to create an assembly line for producing right-wing ideas. 】

The barrage flew out:

"Awesome! This has a very clear understanding of the bottom of the political ecology of the Eagle Sauce Country and fully grasps the rules of the game."

"The idea is too clear, what a talent."

"One link after another, each step is very feasible, so that Koch Industries' money can be fully utilized."

"It's too far ahead of the others. Now many groups in the Eagle Sauce Country seem to adopt such a strategy."

"..."

Accompanied by subtitles.

The "Creation Plan" was introduced in detail in steps on the high-altitude giant screen.

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin compared the content on the giant screen and thought about this "Creation Plan".

Although he could not fully grasp the real situation of the Eagle Sauce Country, he also learned some of the situation of the Eagle Sauce Country from many videos on the high-altitude giant screen.

According to his judgment, if this "creation plan" can be implemented well, it can indeed greatly affect the government decision-making of the United States.

It may not be able to control the government of the United States, but it can also exert a certain influence.

Compared with the way the Koch brothers personally ran for election before, this method is undoubtedly much more concealed and not easily targeted by others.

In terms of effect, although it will not take effect so quickly, it will win in the long run.

And it can also give full play to the financial advantages of Koch Industries and avoid the disadvantages of Koch Industries' insufficient connections and resources in the political circles of the United States.

However.

Although this "creation plan" is very good, Li Shimin feels that it is still not enough to achieve the goal of the Koch brothers to control the government of the United States.

Because all the layouts in the plan are still outside the government of the United States, and have not been achieved. Penetration into the government of the United States.

And if you want to control the government, such a layout is indispensable.

Of course.

Li Shimin also knew that the road had to be taken step by step.

Given the current situation of Koch Industries, the "Creation Plan" is very suitable.

"This person is indeed a top strategist."

Li Shimin looked at Richard Fink on the giant screen in the sky and praised him in his heart.

In his opinion, the appearance of this person will play an important role in the development of Koch Industries.

As an emperor who has experienced the struggle for hegemony in troubled times, he knows too well the value of talents, especially such top strategists.

It is not only Li Shimin who thinks so.

In many dynasties, many emperors have a high opinion of Richard Fink, believing that this person has a clear mind, a precise grasp of the overall situation, and the strategies he has formulated are not only exquisite, but also pragmatic and effective. He can indeed be called a top strategist.

After a round of praise.

These emperors continued to look at the giant screen in the sky, wanting to see how the specific implementation effect of this "Creation Plan" would be.

After all, their conclusions are based on limited information and are not necessarily perfect.All accurate.

……

[How to implement it specifically? ]

[Education should start from childhood. To a certain extent, the impact of ideological implantation is far greater than that of political implantation. ]

[They donated more than 30 million to George Mason University through multiple funds to establish a think tank advocating a free market economy: the Mercatus Center. ]

[In addition, they also sponsored a large number of university research projects in the name of the fund. ]

[They especially like to fund Ivy League schools, design new law and economics courses for freshmen, and discuss the fairness of free economy and law. ]

[As of 2015, the Koch brothers' fund has established research projects in 307 universities and funded or indirectly funded more than 800 professors. ]

[The media is even simpler. They use various channels to insert right-wing elites into mainstream media such as the New York Times and CNN, and put pressure on the government through the media. 】

【With the implementation of the Creation Plan bit by bit, the Koch brothers' tentacles extended to all areas of the politics of the United States. 】

【The reputation of the Koch octopus spread like wildfire. 】

【During this period, the industry of Koch Industries entered a state of crazy expansion, and the US dollar fell from the sky like a ruby ​​waterfall, continuously pouring into the Koch brothers' gold pockets. 】

……

The images on the high-altitude giant screen showed the rapid progress of Koch Industries in all aspects, fully demonstrating the success of the "Creation Plan".

"It really works."

In the dimension of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di was not too surprised.

Like Li Shimin, he had already made a pre-judgment on the effect of the "Creation Plan".

The current result only verified his judgment.

"The Koch brothers are lucky to get the help of a top strategist."

Zhu Di sighed in his heart.

Next.

He found a problem. In this description, he did not see the relevant content of the third step of the "Creation Plan".

"Is it not implemented, or is there a problem?"

With doubts, Zhu Di continued to look at the giant screen in the sky.

……

[However. ]

[A crisis that has accumulated for many years is also accelerating. ]

[Dark clouds are pressing down on the city, and the storm is coming. ]

[With the intensification of environmental pollution, people's environmental awareness has gradually awakened. ]

[The first bird to come out of the gun is shot. As an oil giant, Koch Industries naturally bears the brunt and becomes the focus of social attention, but they all suppress it through special methods. ]

[This makes their nerves begin to relax, and they feel that they can do whatever they want with money. ]

……

The plane of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Che shook his head.

It is obvious that with the initial success of the "Creation Plan", the Koch brothers became arrogant and lost their sense of awe.

At this time, in his opinion, Koch Industries' foundation in the United States was not stable.

Because Koch Industries does not have its own support within the Eagle Sauce government, external forces can exert influence, but they do not have a decisive role.

Liu Che has a hunch that the Koch brothers will soon be in trouble.

……

[The overly high-profile style of doing things has rapidly intensified the contradiction. ]

[Koch Industries has become the target of public criticism, and has been entangled in several environmental lawsuits and has been pursued to pay huge fines. ]

[In fact, retreating to advance can solve many problems, it is nothing more than obeying rectification. ]

[But the Koch brothers' thinking is different from ordinary people. ]

[Don't be timid, just do it. ]

[Not only did they not restrain themselves, but they increased the weight of political investment. ]

……

In the dimension of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che shook his head again.

The mentality of these two people is really too inflated, and they don't know how to restrain themselves.

It is unwise to deal with it this way.

……

[Unfortunately, the power of capital did not work this time. ]

[More and more scandals broke out, and the government also began to investigate the tax situation of Koch Industries. ]

[Then it was discovered that those donations were not donations at all. Most of them were given to conservative investors, and even many charities were owned by the Koch family. ]

[For a time, the Koch brothers became rats crossing the street that everyone shouted and beat in the United States. ]

……

"It's their own fault."

Many ancient political elites from all dynasties commented.

With the Koch brothers' layout, if they were not too inflated and honestly bowed their heads and accepted the punishment, they would never end up like this.

……

[In theory, the Koch brothers' series of actions should have been severely punished by law. ]

[However, the relevant laws and regulations in the United States are not perfect, so they still escaped. 】

……

See here.

Many ancient people in all dynasties felt that imperfect laws and regulations were one reason.

But the bigger reason why the Koch brothers were able to escape punishment may still be their huge wealth and the power to influence the government that the "Creation Plan" gave them.

……

[The Koch brothers were not discouraged, but kept a low profile and brewed a larger plan. 】

0 ·········Please send flowers· ·········

[They put on more layers of clothing for the fund project, becoming more obscure, and accelerated the implementation of the third step of the Creation Plan: building a civilian organization. 】

[At the same time, they also changed camps and joined the Republic. 】

……

The Great Ming Taizu plane.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly.

This move was a good one for the Koch brothers.

Under the long-term dominance of the two factions in the United States, unless the United States is in chaos, the Koch brothers' attempt to establish a new private faction will definitely not work.

The two factions will definitely not allow new forces to change the old ones.Pattern.

These two factions have long controlled the government of the United States, and they must be deeply rooted.

Even if Koch Industries is rich, it cannot be shaken.

It is better to join one of them and then play the financial advantage.

It has to be said.

As the top emperor in ancient China, Zhu Yuanzhang has a strong judgment in politics.

Just relying on the information about the United States that I have seen from the giant screen in the sky, I guessed the political pattern of the factions in the United States.

According to statistics, there are more than 420 legally registered political parties in the United States, but even the third largest faction does not have a seat in Congress, and only has 1 seat in the 7,383 state legislatures in the United States.

Not to mention other political parties, they are in a very marginalized state.

In the United States, the situation of the two factions taking turns in power can be said to be extremely stable.

……

[At the turn of the millennium, they also welcomed another military advisor: Philip, a wolf raised by conservatives. ]

[Remember what I mentioned before, that the Koch brothers funded a number of university research projects? ]

[Yes, Philip is one of the beneficiary students. He was born in poverty but was very talented. It was because of a scholarship that he was able to complete his education. ]

........ ...... .......

[And he vowed to repay the favor. ]

……

Many political elites in all dynasties nodded.

This is the value of long-term planning.

There will always be a time to reap the rewards.

……

[Compared to the pirates of the past, Philip's style is more radical, decisive, bold and ruthless, good at inciting the masses, claiming to be a grassroots leader, and standing with the vast majority of the American people. 】

【His background and style of doing things were very consistent with the needs of the Koch brothers at the time, and played a role in turning the tide for the third step of the creation plan, and also brought the Koch octopus into a new political era. 】

【Around 2008, global warming became a global topic, and the carbon dioxide emissions of the United States alone accounted for 25% of the world. 】

【So, after Obama took office, he introduced a series of environmental protection bills. 】

【While putting on a show, he also wanted to kill the prestige of the energy giant. 】

【For the Koch brothers, this was tantamount to a blockbuster bomb, what should they do? 】

【Of course they had to fight back! 】

【The think tank universities, non-governmental organizations and media under the Koch octopus joined forces to mass-produce academic reports, sell global warming skepticism, and make all the Americans believe that climate warming is a lie. 】

【Through this series of operations, the carbon emission policy of the United States was forcibly reversed, making Obama's inaugural statement a blank check. 】

……

See here.

Many ordinary people in all dynasties were shocked.

They were absolutelyUnexpectedly, Koch Industries, a business enterprise, could actually confront the President of the United States and the government of the United States, and finally won.

This was too surprising for them.

In the eyes of these ancient common people, the great leader (emperor) and the government (court) of a country are supreme and cannot be resisted by the common people.

No matter how rich the businessmen are, they are just common people. How could they have the power to defeat the great leader (emperor) and the government (court) of a country?

It is simply incredible.

Not only these ordinary people who are not very proficient in politics are shocked, even the ancient political elites such as the emperors are very surprised at this time.

They didn't expect that Koch Industries' strength has developed to such an extent that it can really control the national policies of the United States?

This method is quite a bit of inciting the people to coerce the government.

The reason why it can achieve its goal is that Koch Industries has the ability to control the public opinion to a certain extent through long-term layout.

"That 'creation plan' is really amazing."

Many emperors sighed again.

On the road to the development of Koch Industries, the "creation plan" is undoubtedly the most important step.

……

[In 2009, the Tea Party movement arose in the United States. They were extremely dissatisfied with the government deficit and taxation, and advocated reducing the size of the government, cutting spending, and lowering taxes. Their ideas coincided with those of the Koch brothers. ]

[In fact, the initiator of the Tea Party movement was the evil wolf Philip. ]

[With the rise of the Tea Party, the whitewashed extreme right wing gained more and more support among the people of the United States, and quickly moved from the political margins to the political core. 】

The barrage flew out:

"Fink and Philip are the dragon and phoenix of Koch Industries, the serious kind."

"Reply——Haha, almost misunderstood."

"..."

Many ancient people from past dynasties saw this and felt that the Koch brothers were lucky to get the help of two top strategists one after another.
