"What a beautiful girl!"

As soon as they met, Ms. Tracy praised Catherine's beauty directly, and Catherine responded generously.

It can be seen that these two months as an intern at the Presidential Palace have made her grow a lot, and she will not show stage fright when facing people like Ms. Tracy.

"Thank you for your compliment. You are also very beautiful and have an enviable temperament."

Lynch intervened at the right time and led the two ladies into the restaurant.

This is a restaurant that can be considered high-end in Bupen. The chef of the restaurant was said to be a painter who was not very famous, and he was an academic.

Some of his classmates and friends have begun to gain some status and fame in the field of painting, but he is still unknown.

This is not to say that his paintings are not good enough, but his painting style is a bit unpleasant, and he lacks some operating capital, so he has always been tepid, and even filling his stomach has become a problem.

When a man reaches middle age and has his first child, he begins to seriously consider what kind of future he wants.

Eventually he gave up on his dream of becoming a famous painter and instead tried his hand at cooking.

He used his mastery of colors and images in his dishes. Several of the most famous gourmets in the Federation have eaten here, and most of their reviews are very positive.

The taste may not be the best, but the presentation here is definitely the best in the federation.

Having characteristics and publicity means there is business.

With the dream of becoming a painter, I became a cook. Sometimes fate is really strange.

For the set menu ordered by Lynch, temperamental chefs usually have some inexplicable rules. Especially after these chefs have solved the problem of food and clothing and become a little famous, they believe that the market should follow its own rules instead of catering to the market.

Of course, these are not important. What is important is that the environment here is good and the food is good. That is enough.

"Catherine, can I call you that?" After sitting down, Ms. Tracy asked softly, and Catherine naturally nodded in agreement.

Ms. Tracey glanced at Lynch and then at Catherine, "Do you have any opinions on my work?"

Before coming, Lynch told Catherine about Ms. Tracey's work, and she responded quickly, "Fighting for women's considerable rights is the best expression of the federal spirit of freedom. The times are progressing, and we should face up to our own rights and interests instead of Don’t dare to speak out in the face of male-dominated society.”

"Your work is admirable, and if anyone thinks heroes must be male, they don't know you, Ms. Tracey!"

The words were very beautiful, and the compliment was just right. Lynch also raised his eyebrows. He swore that he did not teach these words to Catherine. Catherine's growth was gratifying.

Of course, this is inevitable. When working in the government, the biggest feeling is that you will understand what government officials, the mainstream media and the public want.

Even if you don't know how to deal with these tasks, if you see others handle them a lot, you will naturally gradually understand them.

In the secretariat of every enterprise in the federation, there are one or two specialists who are responsible for handling these documents. They earn more salaries than other secretaries, but do not do much work.

Because what they have to deal with is writing reports to the government, press releases to the media, and information released to the society.

It seems like a simple job, but it is not an easy task to focus on different aspects of the same thing.

This is just like how the police station often tells people how many gangsters they have arrested and how many illegal weapons they have seized when eradicating crime, reflecting the role of the police.

When the city hall announces this problem to the public, they often say that they have solved some minor problems, and the end point is how much the social security rate has increased and how much the crime rate has decreased.

The media's perspective is slightly different. They may show how terrifying these criminals are by attacking the government's incompetence, creating some tension and attention.

It's obviously the same thing, but there are many different ways to express it. It doesn't seem very complicated, but it's not that simple either.

In more than two months, without anyone's guidance, she has indeed grown a lot.

Ms. Tracy's face suddenly filled with a smile, "What you said is so good. I know you are complimenting me, but I really like to hear it."

She didn't hide her thoughts at all. For a big shot, this might be called frankness.

"Are you interested in joining us?" Ms. Tracy extended an olive branch to Catherine. "You can have your own work, and when you feel it is necessary, you can also join us for activities."

Ms. Tracy lowered her voice and said, "We will not be on the front line ourselves. You don't need to worry about this at all."

She also patted Catherine's hand, as if to put her at ease completely.

Catherine glanced at Lynch, who nodded, and she agreed.

The feminist movement will inevitably develop from a "phenomenon" to an inevitable "political movement", just like history naturally eliminated slavery. In the end, society must face up to women's rights.

There is no problem for female officials to have a feminist movement identity. On the contrary, it can provide them with a clear stance and outerwear, making them more real in the eyes of the people.

The Federation is a unique country, and "truth" is a very important factor when people evaluate officials.

Your performance is too perfect, and the people will think that it is all performances, all acting, and all the masks you put on to fool the people.

But if you look like a real person, with bright spots and some minor flaws of normal people, people will think that you are a real "person" and not a liar.

Take a look at the top politicians in the federation and even the world. Some are sloppy, some like to swear, some like to eat in public, and some like to play golf. They always have a little problem.

Catherine agreed to join a feminist organization, and Ms. Tracey's smile became more sincere. It would not be so difficult for her to ask Lynch for political donations in the future.

"After the internship is over, do you have anything to consider?" Ms. Tracy asked another question. During this period of time before dinner is served, everyone can chat casually.

Catherine thought for a moment and said, "I won't consider it for now. There is still a long time to come. My internship period won't end until spring break next year."

After the spring break, she will return to school with the evaluation of the internship unit, get an appropriate score based on the evaluation, and then graduate from school.

If nothing else, there should be many professors willing to write letters of recommendation to her.

Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, if Catherine enters politics in the future, these professors can also tell those subsequent students that Catherine's recommendation letter was written by them.

Shameless?

No, this is society.

Ms. Tracy was a little hesitant. After thinking for a moment, she said, "If you don't find a suitable place next year, why not come work here for a while first. I don't know if Lynch has told you..."

She looked at Lynch, who shook his head slightly. Ms. Tracy had some inherent pride on her face, but pretended to be reserved and said humbly, "I plan to integrate some scattered feminist institutions in the country. There is a lot of work to be done with local governments and civil society groups.”

"It may not be a very comfortable job, and you won't be able to sit in the office most of the time, but it allows all women in the federation and all people who care about equal rights issues to know you and understand you."

“It’s an important qualification for us no matter what we do in the future, don’t you think?”

Ms. Tracy's invitation was beyond Lynch's expectation. He didn't consider the situation at first. He didn't even know that Ms. Tracy would come to visit him suddenly.

In his plan, Catherine could start as the mayor's administrative assistant. It was easy to meet this requirement. The new mayor of Sabine City was very considerate to Lynch.

The new mayor is the governor's man. The governor has a good relationship with Lynch, and Adelaide also has a very good relationship with him. Naturally, the mayor is one of his own. It is very simple to arrange an administrative assistant.

Contact government affairs and politics from the most basic level, and gradually integrate into it, and then you can become a city councilor, mayor, state legislator, congressman, governor or senator, and finally participate in the presidential election.

It's easy to say, but it's definitely not that easy to implement. It's easy but also very difficult for politicians to achieve results. The most important step is to make people know you and recognize your political ideas and policy agenda.

Ms. Tracey now offers a new path, and Lynch suddenly thinks it's great.

Although in the long run, Catherine may always be labeled as a "feminist member", which is not so popular in Congress.

But this is not necessarily an advantage.

The times are constantly evolving. The women's rights movement is still in its early stages. When the women's rights movement develops into the middle and later stages, the awakening of women's overall consciousness will inevitably allow this country to make the most correct decision!

We need a female president to prove the victory of the affirmative movement and to prove that various political movements launched for women's rights are valuable.

This may not happen until twenty or thirty years later, and by then, everything may be just right.

Lynch nodded slightly, and Catherine immediately agreed, "This is what I hope too. I hope that I can do something for those female compatriots who are being treated unfairly, and try my best to do something."

Great conversation!

The cooks pushed the dining cart out of the back hall, and the three of them stopped chatting in time.

The large dinner plates with lids on them looked a bit exaggerated, at least a foot in diameter, and you couldn't see what was inside.

When the dishes were placed properly, the chef, who was also the owner of the restaurant, came over and he would personally serve Lynch's table of guests.

It’s not that he is very familiar with Lynch, it’s all about money and influence!

Art can't fill your stomach, but money can!
