British 1986

She didn't know anything else, but she knew one thing. Lord Allen was very generous, and he would even reward talented people with titles!

And since she is a woman, she is inherently disadvantaged in this regard. If she follows the earl in the future, wouldn't it mean that she can achieve success in one step?

Dame!

This is rare in Great Britain, and it is an achievement that she will never be able to achieve in her lifetime of doing shows!

"Haha, don't make a decision in a hurry. Go back and think about it slowly. When you think about it, you can come to the manor to find Hu Te."

Allen was originally going to pat her shoulder, but just as he was about to reach out his hand, he thought that the other party was a lady and it would be impolite to do so.

"Okay, Your Excellency! I will go back and think about it!"

Ceylon looked grateful and once again felt the kindness from Allen. This Excellency was so considerate that even under such circumstances, he gave her enough time to think about it.

After finishing today's photo shoot, Allen returned to the manor, washed briefly, and returned to the study.

Hu Te was setting the tableware on the desk.

Allen likes to eat while reading documents. According to his hobby, it has gradually evolved into putting some snacks or snacks next to him every time he works.

Today's meal is a small hot pot with a white soup base and freshly cut mutton slices neatly stacked on the plate next to it.

Allen was not in a hurry to eat. He picked up the report on the table and read it first.

The first-week box office of "Deep Water" has been released. The British box office is as sluggish as ever. At 1.4 million pounds, it's neither too much nor too little. It can only be considered a normal level.

According to this trend, nothing unexpected happens.

The total box office is expected to reach 5 million pounds, but now something unexpected happens, the box office will have to go up a little, and it is expected to reach 6 million pounds!

As for the box office in the United States, Allen was a little surprised, with US$7.32 million in the first week!

This number is already quite large, and coupled with the current public opinion, Allen is not sure whether the box office will reach 30 million US dollars before the movie is taken off the shelves.

Excluding theater shares and taxes, if the box office is 30 million U.S. dollars, he can earn more than 10 million U.S. dollars. Add in the bits and pieces of income from other regions, this small-cost movie can give him Bringing in a total profit of almost £20 million!

This does not include the long-term income from selling video tapes in the future!

Making movies is really profitable!

Allen thought about the various money laundering projects he had cleverly created and stuffed into investment projects, which resulted in another nearly 10 million pounds.

If Sony hadn't appeared, Mr. Allen would have become a billionaire even if he only relied on churning out movies and accumulated profits in a few years!

Billionaire in pounds!

Putting down the movie box office report, Allen picked up the application form for acquiring the special effects team sent by Cameron.

After looking at Cameron's scrupulously proposed budget of two million US dollars and preparing to negotiate an acquisition, Allen curled his lips.

It seems that Cameron, who is used to searching, is still a little uncomfortable with the life after joining the noble lord!

He picked up the pen and crossed out the words two million US dollars, and then wrote a new number on it!

Ten million dollars!

This is like buying a horse's bones for a thousand dollars. He pays more attention to talents in film special effects. As long as he gets these people, equipment and other things come second!

How much is that worth?

Anyway, Allen doesn't have to pay for the acquisition.

Isn’t there also Sony?

The purpose of acquiring a special effects team is to make a movie. In this case, it makes sense to include the cost in the movie budget, right?

Then after the special effects team is acquired, Allen will set up a separate special effects company, make them independent, and then let them do special effects for Cameron's new movie for a fee.

Use Sony's money to make Sony's money!

At the bottom of the document, it was emphasized again that Cameron was asked to recruit people and not to worry about the equipment.

Putting down his pen and raising his head, Allen sighed and twisted his neck. He glanced around and saw the maid standing at the door. He coughed lightly, pointed to his neck, and motioned for her to come over and massage him.

"Master?"

"Um?"

Hu Te, who sat across from his desk, would review the documents that Allen had processed and then package them up. Those that needed to be sent would be mailed and those that needed to be faxed. Now that he saw that Allen was finished, he spoke out.

"You have a physical examination tomorrow, so you need to rest early today."

"Okay, I understand. I'll take a break and finish these things."

Allen shook his neck and waited for the maid to massage him to relax, then picked up the documents with different colors and started to look at them.

What is recorded here is the family affairs.

now

Although the factories owned by the Hill family have not changed much, Allen is still prepared to make some changes slowly, and it is not a problem to leave him alone.

In the past, it was because he had no money, but later he gradually got funds. He was busy with film and television companies. Now that it is a new year, of course he must develop these factories.

"Haoli" can also be translated as making a fortune. This is the name of his wool textile factory.

Mainly engaged in wool products, this is considered a traditional industry of the nobility. Basically, most nobles have such factories.

The wool products factory in Allen's family has a history of more than 300 years. It now specializes in wool blankets and various wools and fabrics. It is considered the first choice for foreign tourists to buy souvenirs when visiting Wales.

But the profits tell the truth

The entire factory can barely maintain a balance of payments. If it wants to modernize and upgrade, it has to invest money.

Allen plans to rename the factory this year, change its trademark, and...

Sponsor Manchester United!

From now on, Manchester United's team uniforms will be produced by wool textile mills.

In a few years, when Manchester United slowly kicks out, it can also take advantage of the opportunity to transform into a clothing manufacturing company.

First, I marked my thoughts on a document, then put down the document and picked up another one. This is a tinplate factory. Its main products are tin cans and the like. This is a specialty product of Wales. Occasionally, I also make some tourist souvenirs.

To be honest, Allen is planning to transform this factory into a movie props production factory. Tinplate is of little use now. Many canneries are upgrading new equipment, but in his factory, upgrading equipment will cost a lot of money, mainly for making This kind of supporting industry basically follows the route of small profits but quick turnover. The steel output in Wales is just that. Without the advantage of raw materials, the return on investment is not good, so Allen is too lazy to bother.

The equipment of the remaining larger factories and radio factories were all moved to China, and the only remaining ones that could be counted were food manufacturing factories.

"Yummy" food manufacturing factory.

The name is rustic, and the products produced are all kinds of. Most of them are traditional snacks. They are the type where you can't make a lot of money and you won't starve to death.

this

Allen is even more troubled. The tinplate factory has been transformed. How about the food manufacturing plant also be transformed?

After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't have any clue, so I might as well just do it like this first and wait until I have an idea later.

After taking care of things at home, Allen picked up the manuscript paper and wrote on the paper the words Delivery Workers Union, Delivery Workers Customer Service Union, Delivery Map Investigators Union, etc.

In the UK, or in many Western countries, no matter what you do, you must have a trade union!

The same is true for new industries. Trade unions have mixed reputations. They can guarantee the interests of members under certain circumstances, but under certain circumstances, they can squeeze members in disguise.

Allen wanted to establish this kind of thing by himself first and fill it with his own people.

This is a new industry that he created by himself. When the time comes, he can also invite exclusive delivery people from many restaurants to join the membership, and then contact various restaurants, or he can also use this channel to recruit wild delivery people in society.

"That's right! Have you discussed the matter of veterans?"

Allen suddenly looked up at Hu Te and asked.

"Before we left, I called Secretary Charlie. There was no problem with him."

"oh"

Allen nodded, that's enough. Secretary Charlie, the position sounds like he's not a big official, but he works in the Naval Logistics Department and can play a role in many key issues.

For example, I would like to suggest that the Logistics Department purchase something for military supplies. This is a good job!

The magazine company under Allen is still producing bad magazines, and it uses the channel of Secretary Charlie.

If I shipped something some time ago, I could go through the navy logistics channel, which is safe and saves shipping costs!

"Okay! It's all done, take your time!"

Allen put down his pen, all the big and small things were basically taken care of, and he got off work!

Early the next morning, a small convoy of several ordinary private cars arrived at the manor, followed by two ambulances.

In the lobby on the first floor, the reception room was transformed into a temporary school hospital. Most of the doctors from Carmarthen Public Hospital came today.

Even the "doctor" from as far away as The Gambia has returned.

Allen wore a thick bathrobe and walked into the living room accompanied by Hu Te.

This is an annual physical examination. The physical examination of nobles is completely different from that of ordinary people!

Although the items and purposes of everyone's physical examination are similar, the process is very different.

The social resources consumed by a noble are beyond the imagination of ordinary people!

The young man nicknamed "Doctor" was Allen's comrade-in-arms when he was serving. He was later recruited by Allen to be his personal doctor. He also came back from Gambia this time.

Every noble has a personal doctor!

Even if the conditions at home are poor, there are still people.

This kind of private doctors do not need to have high medical skills. Their duty is to help their employers to see if they have been deceived or misdiagnosed.

Play a strict control and coordination role.

The old Western medicine doctors in Europe are notorious for their knowledge of all kinds of crooked practices!

The most famous one, let alone the far one, is that Mustache was tricked by his personal doctor. He is a sick man in his fifties.

Several doctors in white coats took matters into their own hands and helped Allen draw blood under the scrutiny of a circle of people.

All the medical equipment they used were provided by the manor, not brought by themselves.

Watching the three tubes of blood being drawn out, the "doctor" first took the blood collection tubes, put away the used needles, and then measured the weight on a small gram scale.

After measuring the weight, because the blood test equipment was difficult to move, he had to hold the blood collection tube with his own hands and be accompanied by several people to Carmarthen Public Hospital for testing. After getting the results, he brought the remaining blood back to the hospital. The instruments must also be checked to make sure nothing is left behind.

The reason for all the fuss has some historical reasons.

Many people only learned about the term cloning in the world after the 1990s.

But in fact, cloning has been around since the 1950s, and the legal system at that time was not strict. Not to mention animals, human experiments were all done.

Ordinary people don't care, but nobles are afraid of this. The rumors at that time were extremely mysterious. What about recreating yourself? If this thing is taken away by someone with intentions, wouldn't it mean that someone exactly like yourself will pop up to grab the title?

and

There have always been legends about witches and curses in Great Britain, regardless of whether they are true or false. Since ancient times, nobles have attached great importance to keeping their information confidential, especially personal items and blood.

Even a few decades later, when the Internet has developed, has anyone ever noticed it and searched for a certain noble's height and weight information online to see if they can find it out?

Can't find it at all!

Allen didn't care about this, but Hu Te paid more attention to it, so he followed suit.

After drawing blood, he rested for a while. Several old doctors took turns holding stethoscopes to help Allen auscultate. Allen did not do some testing items such as machine photography. Hu Te's ideas were more old-school and said that those things were not good for the body. , although it’s only a trace amount, but that’s not okay either.

The rest, apart from blood tests, the most important thing is auscultation.

"Your Excellency is in good physical condition! Very strong, just a little bit."

The doctor in a white coat and with white hair put down his stethoscope, first smiled and praised Allen's physical fitness, and then prepared to make a small show.

Hu Te narrowed his eyes and said nothing. Now was not the time for joking. He hated it when someone tried to tell him off at this time, especially about the young master's physical condition.

The doctor looked at Hu Te's expression and smiled awkwardly and said, "Your health is very good. Sir, you don't have to worry. It's just that you lack an outlet for venting recently. You feel a little..."

He didn't know how to say such a thing, so he made a few gestures with his hands.

Allen raised his eyebrows, understanding what he meant. He just got angry, so he could hold it in!

He has been recuperating for more than a month. He is a young and strong man. He eats and drinks well every day. Can he not get angry?

"I understand, as long as there are no other questions!"

After Allen finished speaking, he closed his eyes and waited for the next doctor to continue auscultation.

After all the examinations were over, Hu Te clapped his hands and directed the servants to line up to continue the physical examination, and then rewarded several doctors for their hard work.

After going through these procedures, Allen had already gone back to the room to finish breakfast and clean up.

The old guy Patrice finally came back from the United States. As soon as he got home, he caught up with the lively scene of the annual physical examination. He glanced at Hu Te, who pointed upstairs and motioned for him to go upstairs.

"Okay, housekeepers, you guys are busy first, I'm going to find the young master!"

"Master, I'm back!"

"Ha! Karl has already gone back to look for me, why are you back now?"

Allen smiled and took a look at Patrice. The old guy didn't look very good, but he seemed very excited. Could it be that he was drained by the old lady he met in America?

"Master. I. I'm busy looking for the director."
