Gu Jun didn't gain much from the charity dinner, just like before.
It was almost New Year's Eve, but Gu Jun still didn't board the flight home. He still attended the activities arranged by his team as usual to gain more support. That morning, it was a golf tournament.
There were many golf courses in New York City, and this was a vast one. Members who paid a hefty membership fee were required to play there.
It was just a casual tournament within the club, but many rich people came.
Bam, bam. The golf club swung, and the white ball flew into the sky and landed on the lawn, causing cheers.
"Mr. Gu, beautiful shot!"
"That was a good shot."
A few middle-aged rich businessmen around Gu Jun praised him. They were all smiles as they walked to the next spot.
"What do you think about our plan?" Gu Jun followed them with a golf club.
He had already told them, and they had actually heard about it from their other friends. Now, the upper class of New York City knew that he was going around promoting the free medical plan for all. Therefore, these people weren't surprised when they heard it, but they weren't enthusiastic either.
"This is definitely a noble plan," a rich businessman named Oliver Carmen said. A wealthy businessman named Oliver Kamen said. He was in his sixties, and because he often worked out, he still maintained a strong figure. "But to be honest, Mr. Gu, I'm not optimistic about it." The others were noncommittal.
During this time, Gu Jun had heard enough ambiguity, excuses, and rejections, but he rarely heard people saying they didn't think it was going to work.
He wasn't surprised by their unwillingness. Even before he stepped into the green golf course, he didn't have any expectations, but his heart was surging.
At this time, he was a little surprised, and asked, "Mr. Carmen, please tell me what you think."
"Hmm …" Oliver Carmen shrugged as he walked, his forehead full of wrinkles. "Let me put it this way, Mr. Gu, why don't you fight for it in your hometown first? You have more influence there. Why didn't you achieve your goal in your own place, but you came to New York? "
Gu Jun slightly furrowed his brows. His surging emotions were even more turbulent …
In fact, during this period of time, he and Tong Ye had fought for a lot of changes, but it was not enough …
The organization said that, and the elites in the team also said that in order to carry out this plan, they needed the cooperation of the United States, so they arranged for him to come here to lobby …
"Mr. Carmen, this is a global cooperation plan. It also requires the cooperation of global forces." Gu Jun said seriously, "A lot of things need to be done at the same time. We're preparing on our side and the US needs to make more preparations."
Oliver Kamen chuckled and looked at Gu Jun. "Mr Gu, you're a good man, a kind man, a noble man. I can see that, but it can't be faked. So I wanted to give you a reminder. I don't understand your circle, but I know something else. You were the one who initiated this plan, right? But you listened to their arrangements, right? Mr. Gu, to realize your plan, you can't come over and play golf with us businessmen. "
The old man's smile became more and more intriguing. He added, "This plan isn't just about money, it's about power."
Gu Jun frowned. The ripples in his heart that he had been deliberately suppressing continued to churn …
It wasn't just about money, it was about power …
"Mr. Kamen, I'll think about it. I hope you'll consider it more. This plan is completely to save us."
Gu Jun left this golf match without finishing because he knew that he would not achieve any meaningful results if he continued.
After leaving the golf course, he directly returned to the GOA headquarters in New York City where he stayed and called all the team members that followed him to the conference room for a meeting.
In the bright conference room, Gu Jun sat at the head of the table. The seats on both sides of the table were filled with team members, including elites from various fields. His gaze swept across and looked at the commissioner responsible for arranging the activities here, Wei Yisen, a refined middle-aged man with a crew cut and glasses. He looked gentle.
"If there are no accidents, we'll fly back in the early hours of tomorrow morning," Gu Jun said.
After experiencing so many things, his observation skills had long become extremely sharp. As long as he paid attention, the changes in everyone's expression could not escape his eyes.
The corners of Wei Yisen's eyes raised slightly, and he seemed to be slightly relieved.
It seemed to be saying, finally … you're finally willing to leave … it's over …
"We didn't achieve much this time," Gu Jun said again, "I want to hear about it. What do you think? What's preventing us from achieving our goal? "
At the conference table, someone frowned gloomily and said in a low voice, "The changes we have to make are too big. We can't ask everyone to be a saint."
"Money, resources, every time we have to redistribute it, it's not easy." Another person sighed.
At this time, Wei Yisen comforted in a positive tone, "If you ask me, don't be discouraged, but don't be anxious. This is a grand plan, Rome was not built in a day. Captain Gu, actually the results we have achieved are not bad, but we can't rush it. It's almost New Year, everyone should go back and take a breather. Captain Gu, you too, give yourself a holiday. We'll see how to adjust after New Year, there's still time. "
Gu Jun silently took a deep breath. Every time, it was Wei Yisen who urged them to go back for New Year.
Every time, it was Wei Yisen who said things like they were doing well and advised them to take it slow.
It was also Wei Yisen who made the various arrangements here.
These words seemed to be encouragement, but it was also to wear them down, to dispel …
Yes, hypnosis …
Gu Jun's gaze once again swept across the team members on both sides of the conference table. Some showed signs of fatigue, some nodded thoughtfully.
"Indeed, this plan can't be rushed, it still needs to be done slowly in stages."
"To be able to get those pharmaceutical giants to agree to lower the price of some drugs, it's not a bad result."
The eyes of the two who said these words seemed to be observing something in the dark, just like Wei Yisen's eyes …
They were both the details of the plan.
A ball of nameless anger suddenly flared up in Gu Jun's heart.
But he did not show it, he just said calmly, "Before we go back, I still want to fight for one more time. We will take the initiative to hold another dinner tonight as a farewell dinner, a New Year's dinner. Send invitations to those celebrities and rich people, tell them that this dinner will not be discussing business, and try to invite them as much as possible. "
