British 1986

Allen pointed at Thomas. The old guy is very ideological!

Allen couldn't initiate this matter, but he really wanted to do it, so he could only instruct Thomas to propose it secretly, and then make it look like others were supporting him and recommending him to do it.

Although it is very shameless, here you can only play like this, this is the operation.

However, even if Thomas said it, he said what Allen wanted to hear, but he still had to be willing to put the blame in place.

"Well Carmarthenshire? Is there anything wrong with this?"

Allen glanced at Thomas suspiciously.

"How is that possible? Who in the whole of Great Britain doesn't know this? Your Excellency, you are worried about the Welsh economy, so you first take out Carmarthenshire as a pilot project. You can be regarded as sitting here, so we can rest assured!"

Thomas looked at Allen affectionately. There was a feeling that without Mr. Allen, Wales would not be able to survive. You are the pillar of the country, and we are just looking forward to your coming out.

"Um"

After Allen expressed his position, and with Thomas's unremitting efforts to persuade, he "reluctantly" agreed to the proposal to use Carmarthenshire as a pilot project.

Since I can't shirk the blame now, it's time to arrange the specific operations.

“Have you ever heard of a unitary administration area?”

"Um?"

Thomas was stunned by Alan's sudden question. Although he had been in politics for some years, as a Welsh councilor, he had heard of such high-end terms as single management area, but he had never used it.

This word means literally.

Unity, management, district.

If this is done, then the entire Carmarthenshire can be said to be integrated into one. It will appear to be a county, but a direct county council will be established, and then the three towns will be combined into one to form a city group. Externally, it can also be regarded as the entire county. act in the name of.

To sum up, the scale has been unified, and the management method has become not that each city manages it alone, but that it is managed and autonomous by the county as a whole, and it even only reports to London, bypassing Wales.

In a large country, this approach would be equivalent to a municipality or autonomous region.

This is a disguised return to the aristocratic management of hundreds of years ago, except that the county council has replaced the management power of the aristocratic master.

However, if this county were replaced by Carmarthenshire, based on Thomas' understanding of Allen, it would be basically the same as managing it himself!

In the past, he was a lawless local overlord here, and the Hill family still had power. Now that the entire county has been integrated, it has become what it was earlier. Who dares to stand up and oppose it?

And with Carmarthenshire setting an example, as long as there are no major problems, this model can be expanded in the future. Can Wales also manage itself?

Well. There is hope. All that remains is to take the first step. The first step is the most critical!

Let’s start with Carmarthenshire as a pilot and get it operational first.

After watching Thomas move his eyes and think for a long time, Allen coughed lightly.

"Your Excellency! This is a good suggestion. We in Wales have a large population but a small amount of land. In this case, we must concentrate our efforts on doing big things. Your Excellency is worthy of your foresight."

Thomas, who came back to his senses, subconsciously extended his thumb and praised Allen's extremely selfish idea as a way to concentrate people and unite to develop the economy.

Allen's face didn't turn red as he listened to Thomas' bragging.

"Okay! Let's do it this way. When you go back, make a proposal first. You must submit the proposal before August and try to complete it within this year. Media side."

"Don't worry, Your Excellency. I will convene the media to report on a few bankrupt factories when I get back, exaggerate the current economic situation, and then build momentum for you from the side."

"Yeah! Go ahead!"

After waving his hand to drive Thomas away, Allen sat on the sofa and did not move.

The reason why Thomas was asked to quickly put this matter on the agenda was due to the influence there.

Carmarthenshire's desire for single administration does not seem to have anything to do with donations.

But this kind of operation, based on Allen's current experience, can only be done by following the trend in the most common way.

Just like now, in a short period of time, the most important discussion in Congress will definitely be about donations. Taking advantage of this time, it will not be so abrupt for Wales to submit a pilot proposal for a county.

And taking advantage of this opportunity, as long as we get things done, it will be like cracking an egg.

Wales has always been so honest, and the Hill family also deserves credit. If such an honest kid suddenly makes a request, he won't refuse it directly, right? Besides, it's just such a small request, and you can pass it with a high probability if you fool around.

And as long as Carmarthenshire's single management area is won this time, things will be easier to handle in the future!

Allen donated money this time, but the donation must have results. He gave both materials and money, and he didn't just want fame.

You must use this money and materials to pave the way for your future business.

And paving the road must have a name. You can't say that it is the money and materials donated by Earl Allen of Carmarthen Town, Carmarthenshire, Great Britain and Wales, right?

This long list of names is too low and has no momentum at all!

In the future, we will publicize that this is the Earl of Allen in Carmarthenshire, Wales!

To be clear this is an entire county.

With the control of the entire county, other plans will be easier to implement.

Allen already has a preliminary action plan. For example, the first step is to go to China to find several economically developed cities and establish sister cities with Carmarthenshire.

If we take an entire county to establish sister cities with you, this sincerity seems to be more sufficient than just taking out a town, right?

As long as sister cities are established, more things will be easier to operate in the future.

The first step is not to determine an investment project, but to establish human relations first.

For example, in Shanghai, Pudong is being developed there, and various companies or wealthy businessmen are flocking there. Allen seems to be sitting firmly on Diaoyutai, with no intention of going there at all.

But what if he takes Carmarthenshire and Shanghai to establish sister cities?

think about it.

Mr. Allen holds donations and supplies in his left hand and sister cities in his right hand.

Then, after forming a sister city, we can naturally invite the leaders of the other party to come and inspect!

No amount of money can buy an inspection place this year. This thing works better than anything else. Coupled with the good reputation brought by Allen's donation, is Carmarthenshire worth inspecting?

Why don’t you come to Carmarthenshire with its beautiful scenery and numerous cultural relics?

After they get here, as long as the two parties have a good conversation, Allen can also organize them to visit England nearby.

His inspection invitation is definitely worth every penny.

It only takes one visit to establish a relationship. Once the human relationship is established, what kind of business he wants to do there and which piece of land he wants is no longer just a matter of words.

How do other foreign businessmen compare to this kind of operation?

By bribery?

How could it be safer than an inspection invitation like this?

This thing doesn't mean that it can only establish a friendship with one city, but as long as he has money and connections, Allen can use it to establish a friendship with whichever city he wants!

This can be used as a weapon for him to do business in the future!

Even after the relationship between the two parties is good, they can also develop study abroad and use Cardiff University as a favor. Allen will earn fame, Cardiff University will earn tuition fees for studying abroad, and the other party will earn opportunities to study abroad. It's a win-win-win situation!

Originally, Allen was planning to wait until he became stronger before putting this plan on the agenda, but now, since he wanted to donate, he had to take advantage of the situation and not let the money go in vain.

Although this idea is very powerful, why can't you get some benefits for yourself if you donate real money?

Time passed slowly for a week. During this period, the crew continued filming at a low speed.

I just returned home from filming today. Hu Te was waiting at the door of the hall. The first time he saw Allen, Hu Te said with a smile: "Master, thank you for your hard work. The parliament over in London has come out with the results."

"Oh? It's pretty fast this time."

In just one week, it is difficult for these useless politicians to come up with the results of the negotiation.

Allen stretched out his hand and waited for the servant to help him take off his sun protection clothing. He took the information and read it while walking.

Well. As expected, the donations will be uniformly given in the name of Great Britain, rather than individually.

However, this donation amount

Damn it, only £1.5 million?

Is this a joke?

Allen looked at the donation number with some surprise. It took a week to discuss the result, and this is it?

Two hundred thousand a day?

How fucking free do you have?

Yes, the economy is in a recession right now, but what idiot would come up with such a small amount of money and not be ashamed of it?

"This amount? Is it correct? Is there a zero missing?"

Allen was still in disbelief, so he stopped and turned his head and asked.

"I remember correctly, that's the amount. However, I received a call from Wei Dewei in the afternoon. He came forward to donate about five million pounds in cash in Xiangjiang. There will be other supplies later. This is divided into two batches. The total amount donated is probably 10 million pounds."

"oh"

It's still a few years before Xiangjiang's return, but it's so close, so it's fair to say, not too little.

Allen breathed a sigh of relief. This way, it would be easier for him to suppress Daying.

"You go back and contact Wei Dewei and ask him to say hello for me first, saying that I am going to donate five million pounds in our corporate name and personal name, as well as follow-up supplies, but the total amount will not exceed the British side. the overall amount.”

This baseline is now placed here. Allen can donate according to the maximum amount, but he cannot exceed it. If it exceeds it, it will be a slap in the face. It will be difficult to say when the time comes.

However, five million pounds plus supplies should not be considered too small for an average individual in this era, right?

Calculating the purchasing power, it is equivalent to tens of millions, nearly 100 million Chinese dollars.

"What about the amount of donations from other places? Have you not received statistics?"

After looking at the ones in Great Britain, although they were a bit fussy, they were generally reasonable. Allen immediately became concerned about donations from other regions, especially wealthy households like the United States!

It would be interesting to see how much money these rich people who talk about humanitarianism all day long will get if something goes wrong, and it will also open your eyes.

"Well, the data is still being collected. Master, your data will have to wait for a few days. I will report to you as soon as it is collected."

Daying had been discussing for a week to come up with a result. In other places, their efficiency was probably not as fast as Daying. As soon as Hu Te said it, Allen understood.

"Okay, then I'll be waiting!"

The international news in recent days has also been full of reports about that place, but regarding the donation of money, it seems that there is not much enthusiasm, it is very strange and calm, different from usual.

On the fifth day when the final results were obtained, Allen finally got the early data.

From the United States and the United Kingdom, plus Canada, Australia, Germany and other countries, the total donation amount is "up to" 50 million - Chinese dollars.

Seeing the data sent by Hu Te immediately, Allen really doubted life this time.

Is this what a few rich brothers donated to others?

Damn it, if you change it into British pounds, the sum of them together wouldn't be as much as you could donate by yourself.

How do you have the nerve to spend so little money?

No wonder there are no reports on the amount of donations on TV. Is it because it’s embarrassing?

Aren't the rich guys usually wearing five-and-six clothes, so they pretend to be like that?

He also speaks loudly, and becomes a "network keyboard warrior" to attack some unfair things he sees.

Something really happened now, is that it?

How did you have the nerve to come up with this little money?

"The statistics are correct?"

This amount is really too small, so small that it is a bit unbelievable. This is the second time in just a few days that Allen has questioned Huth.

"It's absolutely correct, Master. This is the first-hand data, but there may be material support in the future."

With this said, even Hu Te lost his confidence. He only gave so much cash. As for the supplies, he didn't even dare to think about it. This was too embarrassing!

"Farke!"

Thinking of the Gulf War at the beginning of the year, which was a lively fight at the time, but now that real humanitarian aid is on the table, these rich guys shrink back, and Allen gets angrier the more he thinks about it.

"How much did they spend on the war in the United States at the beginning of the year?! They spent nearly 70 billion U.S. dollars, and now they have to spend this little?"

He stood up and flipped through the information on his bookshelf. Allen also had this kind of internal information, which he got from Boss Cha.

Looking at the statistics last month, it was US$72.2 billion, of which Great Britain borne 4.1 billion.

The United States alone has borne more than 50 billion U.S. dollars. Think about how much it is. !

The money was equally shared by their domestic military-industrial companies. Although Allen also shared a bit, this is not the point.

The point is that all these expenses were paid in advance. After the conquest of Kuwait, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia reimbursed nearly 40 billion US dollars in expenses!

The remaining costs are shared by other countries, such as Germany and island countries.

In total, after one battle, the United States not only recovered the expenses they had advanced, but also made nearly 10 billion US dollars in vain!

This does not include their total domestic production driven by so many orders.

How long has it been? You’ve made so much money, and now you’re spending a million dollars. Is this just for begging?

no

Thinking about their appearance, Alan felt uncomfortable all over without messing with them.
