After Zhang Meng signed a secret agreement with Curtis, he immediately took action to help Hoover win votes during his next trip to New York.

New York is a key stop in the election. Whether Hoover can defeat Roosevelt depends entirely on this speech in New York. Similarly, Roosevelt was also actively preparing. His personal charm was not as good as Hoover, but because Hoover caught up with the economic crisis, the public opinion approval rating declined, which in turn highlighted Roosevelt's advantage. Because Americans hoped that Roosevelt could bring them some hope, they voted for him to temporarily lead Hoover.

The Republican and Democrats canvassed votes in New York almost at the same time. Zhang Meng deliberately arranged a debate and invited Miss Rice, the most famous host in the United States, to come forward to invite Roosevelt to attend the debate.

Roosevelt did not know that Hoover would participate at first, so he was not prepared enough. On the other hand, Hoover received Zhang Meng's notice in advance, and Curtis sent someone to him a document of reform measures he received from Zhang Meng, asking Hoover to recite them all.

The reform measures document is Zhang Meng's real killer weapon, and the content is basically the historical details of Roosevelt's New Deal. Zhang Meng made a slight change to make it more in line with President Hoover's style of conduct and safeguard the interests of the Republican Party.

Although Roosevelt shouted the reform slogan at this time, he only had a simple reform outline. Before becoming president, he did not have the financial and human support of the think tank, so his slogan was just a shell. On the other hand, what Hoover got was a flesh-and-blood specific reform rules, which would inevitably attract the attention of the people once it was announced.

The two debate was held in Queens Square in New York, with as many as 100,000 attendees. This is not because Americans like to participate in politics, but because the economic crisis has made them very uneasy and they want to know earlier what measures will be taken by the future president.

The two sides met in a narrow road at the debate. Roosevelt was obviously surprised, but he was still very smart. He seized the fatal flaw of the economic crisis during Hoover's administration and attacked, and announced to the public a series of reform measures he would take, including slogans such as finance, agriculture, industry, public infrastructure, and social security, which immediately won unanimous praise from the people.

Hoover was very worried at first. He didn't understand why Zhang Meng deliberately arranged such an open debate. Because he was very unconfident and didn't know how to move forward in the face of future reforms in the United States. However, after reading the detailed content of the reform measures document Zhang Meng gave him, he was immediately surprised and his confidence came back.

The series of reform measures and slogans that Roosevelt shouted were all on that document. Hoover didn't have time to think about how Zhang Meng knew Roosevelt's reform program. He seized the time to read the contents and remember them in mind. Then, according to Zhang Meng's instructions, he deliberately repeated what Roosevelt had just said without saying a word.

Roosevelt's side suddenly burst into laughter, and the people below also started to make a fuss, scolding Hoover for being brainless, and actually repeating according to other people's words. It was obviously impossible to vote for him.

However, Hoover suddenly said, "Ladies and gentlemen, you may be laughing at why I said the same thing as Roosevelt said. Actually, I don't understand why Roosevelt actually knew the reform program I worked hard to formulate."

As soon as these words were said, the crowd was in an uproar. This was obviously accusing Roosevelt of plagiarizing Hoover's reform program.

Everyone suddenly fell silent. They knew that a good show was coming. The two competitors now had the same slogan, and one of them must be fake and plagiarized by the other party.

At this time, the host Ms. Rice immediately said: "This is really unfortunate. The reform program that President Hoover has worked hard to formulate has been plagiarized. What is Mr. Roosevelt's explanation?"

Roosevelt was so angry that he had summarized the reform measures he had thought hard in his heart for more than a year, which was prepared for the election. He could have defeated Hoover directly with this program, but now it is dangerous. Hoover said in one sentence that the program belongs to him. If this is confirmed, all Roosevelt's previous efforts will fail.

This is a superb method to cut off the fire from the bottom of the pot. Once successful, the whole situation will be reversed.

What awesome Hoover, Roosevelt couldn't help but look up to him. However, Roosevelt was not worried because he believed that others would never be able to grab his own things.

"This is a coincidence, but I want to tell you that the reform measures I just mentioned are indeed based on my own thinking."

"As far as I know, President Hoover has a huge think tank team, who have sufficient funds to formulate reform plans. Mr. Roosevelt is still just a candidate and cannot get the support of powerful human and financial resources like President Hoover."

The host Rice took Zhang Meng's money, so he naturally stood on President Hoover's side. She spoke very skillfully, which made the audience subconsciously believe that the program was from President Hoover, implying that Roosevelt's reform program was stolen.

Roosevelt seemed to look at Rice alertly, secretly asking that this time it might be a carefully designed trap, and he was getting caught step by step. He wanted to get out immediately, but that undoubtedly meant admitting that he had stolen other people's achievements.

"It's just a reform program, and it doesn't require much manpower or financial resources. If I become president, I will naturally follow the specific implementation rules of this program."

Rice immediately asked: "So Mr. Roosevelt's program is just a slogan? I mean, for the time being, it is just a slogan and there are no actual implementation rules."

Roosevelt secretly scolded Rice for asking too tricky questions, which undoubtedly implied that he was a guy who shouted slogans. But Rice's speech was full of skills, which forced Roosevelt to nod and admit it.

Rice smiled slightly and turned to Hoover.

"Mr. President, since it is the reform measures you summarized by using a huge think tank and spending a lot of manpower and financial resources, it must have helped the Americans get rid of the economic crisis and prosper again."

"That's right!"

"Then this reform program shouldn't be just a slogan, it should have more details, right?"

"That's right!"

Hoover was so happy that as soon as Rice spoke, he heard that she was on her side, and her questions were always guiding the public to believe that this reform program was Hoover's, not Roosevelt's.

Rice smiled and asked again: "Mr. President, let's not talk about today's debate. Now you and Mr. Roosevelt are both proclaiming that they are the owners of this reform program. I believe that one of them is cheating and shamelessly plagiarizing the hard work of others. The audience at the scene also wanted to know who the reform program was from, because this reform program sounds like a key to the United States getting out of the economic crisis and reappearing a prosperous era, and it is also the key to the American people's election of a qualified president in their hearts. Please explain your reform measures in detail."

Rice's words immediately resonated with the 100,000 Americans in the audience. They were all guided by Rice's words, believing that the real author of this reform program is the future savior of the United States, and the next president of the United States, they asked Hoover to say the details.

Hoover was so happy. The originally unfavorable situation was proved that the reform program was made by him this time, then everything Roosevelt won before would be gone, and the victory would definitely be Hoover's.

Hoover first showed a hint of embarrassment and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the reform program that I intend to disclose after re-election. If I cannot be re-election, this reform program will not be implemented. Moreover, someone has plagiarized my hard work before, which makes me dare not say it when I ran for election in several previous states. If I disclose all the content now, I will probably be plagiarized again."

"As long as the President speaks it out, we are willing to support you!"

The people arranged by Zhang Meng deliberately made a fuss below, and immediately guided 100,000 people to make a voice in support of Hoover, as long as he was willing to disclose the details of the reform outline.

Hoover then took the opportunity to disclose the detailed reform content on the reform outline. After hearing this, the people suddenly laughed and laughed, because a considerable amount of the reform measures were to improve people's livelihood, which was the result that Americans wanted the most. Moreover, Hoover said in detail, and it was far from a replacement for each project that Roosevelt could only shout slogans.

This also proves that the reform program was indeed made by Hoover. Roosevelt looked bitter and the people of the Democratic Party were ashamed.

At this time, someone in the crowd shouted again: "Roosevelt is a shameful thief. He steals other people's achievements, which almost made us choose the wrong president."

Some people had already prepared eggs and rotten cabbage, and immediately smashed Roosevelt to him, making him feel extremely embarrassed.

After being incited by someone, the crowd was angry and shouted that Roosevelt would get out. Roosevelt would still debate, but the scolding of the 100,000 people scared the Democrats to quickly take Roosevelt away.

In this way, Hoover won the New York election with a vote rate of up to 95%. This matter immediately spread throughout other American states, and several states that originally supported Roosevelt also protested. The first time in American history in the dust was overturned. People in these states marched to protest and demanded a new vote. Hoover was the president and immediately ordered that a new vote be allowed. As a result, several states that supported Roosevelt all re-elected Hoover.

In just one week, Hoover had an absolute advantage in winning the national election and was successfully re-election for president.

Roosevelt was so angry that he vomited blood. He was scolded by the Americans and did not even dare to go back home. From then on, he turned into a rat crossing the street.

Hoover was very grateful to Zhang Meng. In addition to transferring Pacific islands such as Guam, American Samoa, and American Wake Island to the Tang Empire for trusteeship in accordance with the agreement, he also treated Zhang Meng as a guest of honor. He wanted to get more reform opinions from Zhang Meng because he thought Zhang Meng was too powerful.
