British 1986

The dish in front of me is considered a new dish in the British royal family's royal menu. Although the dish looks very simple, it is famous for its extremely domineering name - Coronation Chicken.

This is a limited-edition ceremony dish that the British royal chef at that time racked his brains to come up with when the current queen ascended the throne.

To make it, just boil the marinated chicken breasts in water, shred them and add them with curry-based sauce.

The specific method is divided into two groups, one is more delicious, but the image is not very good, the shredded chicken pie, the other is cut chicken breasts, pour sauce on top, only cares about the image but the taste is slightly inferior. Cut the pie.

White chicken topped with golden curry sauce is equivalent to wearing a crown, so it is called coronation chicken.

Boss Cha and Allen looked at each other, looked at Allen's solemn look, and glanced around. On the stage, a group of Chinese Americans were singing a play. It was the same play that Allen heard in Los Angeles some time ago. Boss Cha originally came to see I was quite happy, but now with this dish, this drama, and the surrounding ten tables of guests, the situation is so emotional.

Boss Cha feels as if he has traveled back in time to the time when the British Empire was strong a hundred or two hundred years ago. If anyone dares to do something like this when all the nations are coming to court, if someone raises his hand at this moment, he might really dare to do something.

"This dish is the coronation chicken, a famous dish created by the royal chef when Her Majesty the Queen ascended the throne. It has extraordinary meaning. Taking this opportunity today, I also wish you all a successful career in the new year, just like Her Majesty the Queen did back then. , has led my British Empire to prosperity and strength since he ascended the throne."

"Your Highness, I respect you!"

Allen picked up the wine glass and gestured to Boss Cha, and said nothing else. I believe that with such a tease, Boss Cha can regain some motivation.

"Hahaha, Allen, sit down!"

Boss Cha subconsciously picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the red wine. His face was a little rosy with excitement. Of course he understood what Allen meant. This thing is called the coronation chicken. Who will be crowned? !

He is the protagonist here today. Isn't Allen's solemn introduction just to express this meaning?

It’s just that he didn’t say it so straightforwardly!

Thinking of all the encounters and frustrations this year, at the end of the year, because of Allen’s party, Boss Cha seemed to have all his grievances gone, and he was full of motivation again!

Now that you have such a loyal minister, what else do you want? !

Thinking of this, Boss Cha immediately thought of Allen's proposal some time ago that he wanted to restore the establishment of his family's guard force. Originally, Boss Cha was not too concerned about this matter, but now

Allen is such a loyal kid. Among so many courtiers, Allen is the only one who has never forgotten his original intention and always secretly encourages and supports him. Boss Cha is going to find out about this matter during the internal gathering of the royal family in a few days. The queen said.

"Thank you Ellen!"

After Gustave waited for Allen to sit down, he gently raised his glass to signal to Allen.

He didn't know what others thought, but he was greatly stimulated by this situation.

Boss Cha has not yet ascended to the position, but he is a serious king, but...

He, the king, lived such a miserable life. Think about that queen, living in Buckingham Palace and enjoying the admiration of thousands of people. What kind of life did she live?

What about him?

He was actually forced to take a break by the council, his wife, and his daughter.

The gap is too big!

When he comes to Wales this time, he only needs to entrust Bertil and Madeleine to Allen. Gustav is ready to wait for this time to go back and have a good fight with the Parliament and the mother and daughter. Anyway, he has nothing to worry about anymore. He is weak. After all these years, he also wanted to be tough!

Allen sat down with a wine glass and silently observed the people on the table with different expressions. Boss Cha would be very satisfied with this dish. It would be unrealistic to rebel now, but Boss Cha, it’s him again. The biggest supporter, I feel that Boss Cha has been suppressed a bit this year. Allen doesn't want Boss Cha to be too depressed, which is not good, so he has to encourage Boss Cha regularly, tease him, and make him full of emotions.

Today, he borrowed this dish to give a wish to Boss Zha. The underlying meaning was to wish him an early accession to the throne. It was not stated clearly, but the meaning was as simple as that.

In addition to coronating Boss Cha as soon as possible, Allen looked at the coronation chicken on the plate and smiled secretly in his heart.

Boss Cha doesn't come to Wales a few times throughout the year. With today's party and the presence of such a nobleman to cheer him on, it will show those Welsh ghosts and ghosts who are the real local overlords of Wales.

Allen's position in Wales will become more and more stable in the future, and he will crown himself with this dish.

From now on, as long as the boss is not around, Alan will be the uncrowned king of Wales!

December 23, afternoon.

On the roof of Allen's New Castle, in the sun room.

This is a large sunroom made of a metal frame and a full glass barrier. It is surrounded by many green plants. In winter, even if there is no heating indoors, you can feel the warm sunshine in this sunroom. You can enjoy the snow scenery outside at 360 degrees without any blind spots.

Four huge black bear skins were spread on the ground, and a short, wide and long tea table was placed on the bear skins. Allen sat barefoot and cross-legged in front of the tea table, with a complete set of tea sets on the table.

On the small stove next to it, the water in the teapot is almost boiling. The musician in the distance is a guzheng master specially invited. A quiet classical Chinese guzheng tune matches the heavy snow outside the sun room. At this time, come and sit around the fire Making tea, that artistic conception.

It is said that Hu Jianren's tea culture is extremely prosperous. It seems that no matter where they are, they can take out a tea set and make tea at any time.

Allen doesn't know whether this is true or not, but as time goes by, more and more Hu Jian people come to Wales. This is true, and their tea culture has become popular here, and Allen also Inevitably learned.

As the water in the teapot boils, he picks up the teapot and scalds the tea set, then puts in the tea leaves, makes tea, scrapes foam, rubs tea, shakes incense, goes to sea, shows tea, and converts. After the whole process, Allen is not playing. It's too standard, but the movements are all decent. At least it can fool laymen, so there's no problem.

"please!"

Moza was wearing a black gauze dress, a bit like a widow's outfit, and the headscarf on her head gave her a bit of mystery.

She was also invited to watch the party two days ago. After the party, she stayed in Cardiff. It was not until today that she came to visit Allen.

Allen's vote in the United States not only made Allen famous, but also allowed Moza to see clearly Allen's strength. This visit to Wales further allowed her to understand Allen's confidence and status.

Looking at Allen, who is wearing a flowing satin robe, and the little tiger lying on his lap, the sun refracts through the glass, and the warm light shines on Allen's face, making this man's body seem to be plated. A layer of golden light.

Coupled with the tea art that even Moza couldn't understand, it was like this. Just bring any woman out and everyone would be confused.

Following Alan's invitation, Moza seemed to have come to his senses. Looking at Alan gesturing for her to drink tea, Moza said politely: "It's such an honor to have you personally pour me tea."

"This is obvious. Moza, we are not only partners, but also friends, right? I don't like my friends to be polite to me."

Allen picked up the tea cup and smelled the aroma. He was young and had a strong temper, so he didn't like to drink black tea, but preferred to drink green tea.

"Haha, Your Excellency, you are really generous and an extremely trustworthy partner and friend!"

Moza took a sip of tea. It was a bit hot and she was not used to drinking it, but Allen's attitude was very useful to her.

"When you came this time, you didn't take a good tour of our Wales. Instead, you were anxious to see me, right?"

Seeing that Moza was still somewhat reserved, Allen took the initiative to ask.

"It's my problem again. You don't know what the results of your inspection are. Where will your takeaway company be located? When can it open?"

"Oh haha, I have been quite busy during this period. As you have seen, I just finished this party. I have a few days off. I will go abroad with His Highness for a visit in a few days. I will have to wait until I come back at the earliest. "

The disappointment on Moza's face flashed away. Who doesn't like power?

Especially in the past few days, she was extremely jealous when she saw Allen's power of inviting hundreds of nobles to watch the party together, paving the red carpet for the banquet guests.

"Then you don't know if there is anything else you need my help with?"

This feeling of anxious waiting makes Moza very tortured. She is eager to do something. Sometimes she even wants Allen to trick her, even if it means paying some money. This feeling of waiting step by step is really... It’s too painful.

"Hey, when you said that, I just remembered something."

Alan pretended to just remember it, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, looked at Moza with a sincere face and said: "Our early plans are actually almost the same, and there is nothing that needs to be improved. Do you want to do more rashly?" , it is easy to cause counter-effects, but during this time I am busy with TV stations, and I have some new ideas."

"Oh? Your Excellency, please speak!"

Moza's eyes lit up. Did he finally have any orders?

"Look, when our plan is completed, of course I will be fine, but have you ever thought about how to calm down the dynamics and public opinion at that time? For example, public opinion or foreign opinions or something?"

Moza wanted to help her husband and ascend to the position of king in one fell swoop. Allen had a complete set of ways to help him. Anyway, the people in his hands were idle, but what should he do after that?

Although this kind of after-sales service was not within the scope of his consideration before, it is now a matter of time.

There was little benefit in the initial discussion. Allen thought it was troublesome, so he only agreed to help Moza get the most difficult things done first, and he was not going to take care of it in the future.

But now, Allen has some new ideas recently.

There are acquaintances everywhere and they are well-informed, which is an advantage. As the end of the year is approaching, Allen organizes gatherings, and some of his people will also gather with their friends. Ceylon, who has a wide range of friends, is no exception.

This is what Ceylon told Ellen yesterday. She said that her former colleagues said that among the BBC overseas branches, the performance of the Middle East branch was very poor. Rumors leaked from their headquarters that they were considering withdrawing in the near future. Ax the BBC Middle East operations and withdraw funds.

This is originally a very bad business practice, but people like Allen are sometimes more sensitive to certain things. It just so happens that recently he is busy with the Welsh TV station in his hands.

There are relatively few people in the Welsh TV station. There are only two or three big cats and kittens on the station, and their professional skills are also very poor. This party was managed by the efforts of the entire station and was barely successful. It was considered a big training exercise.

Ceylon's original intention was that since the people in the BBC Middle East branch were to be laid off, Allen could recruit these people back and plug them into the Welsh TV station to expand the strength of the Welsh TV station. After all, it was the BBC, so The people inside are all elite soldiers in the media industry.

But Alan didn't see it that way. After learning more about the specific situation of the BBC Middle East branch, he discovered that there seemed to be something wrong here!

The Middle East has been a bit chaotic in recent years. Although the big dogs are rich, they still don’t have a decent TV station.

Even an international media giant as powerful as the BBC cannot survive there.

Allen didn't know much about this kind of thing before, but now he knows a little about it!

People like him rarely watch TV. In addition to being busy, watching TV is also boring. Just like the previous Welsh TV stations, their stance was too clear and there was nothing worth watching.

Ordinary people don’t like watching this kind of crazy TV station.

The situation in the Middle East is somewhat similar to the situation in Wales.

The rich and powerful rarely watch local TV programs, and the BBC Middle East branch has a very clear stance. Their news is always broadcast from the perspective of Western liberal critical thinking, which makes many people in the Middle East unable to stand it. , even if there is a group of so-called "Middle East elites" who like to watch programs with this stance, these minority groups cannot solve the embarrassing situation of unprofitable TV stations.

So, in the end, it became a bit unsustainable. In previous years, when the economic environment was good, the BBC might have gritted its teeth and persisted for some other purposes, but now, everyone is no longer able to do so, and they are not prepared to maintain the Middle East branch.

But Allen was a little unbelieving, and he was going to do something about it.

Isn’t it just Moza who leads the way?

If everyone from the BBC Middle East branch is recruited, a new TV station is set up in Qatar, the position is hidden, and even some anti-American sentiments are stirred up, will this be the beginning?

Of course, for the sake of safety, you can't openly rebel. Allen has rich experience in this, and his current ability can also cover it.

I don’t mean to say that I am anti-American, but I can show more of the bad things in the free world to the people of the Middle East!

As for Moza, she can be responsible for providing money and effort to help Allen make wedding clothes.

As for the reason, Allen has already thought about it. Since there is no influential media in the Middle East, it means that even if the rebellion succeeds, Moza and the others will suffer a lot in terms of public opinion. In order to prevent them from suffering, The kind-hearted Mr. Allen makes his debut. Of course he wants to help his good friend!
