British civil servant

Dulles laughed out loud, and the British in front of him pointed out Jiangshan, in his eyes, he looked like a resentful woman who had found an opportunity to vent, but the goal of the United States has been achieved, although it should have been achieved many years ago, it has now been achieved. A little late.But in the end, Iran was included in the sphere of influence of the United States.

At this time, Dulles is not easy to bother Alan Wilson. He knows that Britain wants to vent.

And it is indeed necessary to do this. On the Iran issue, since the United Kingdom has softened, the United States will deal with the Soviet Union in the next step. Alan Wilson's proposition is not wrong.

"The friend of Congressman McCarthy is indeed a fighter for the free world." Dulles praised generously.

"Of course, I firmly uphold the free world." Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows, looking full of promises.

Alan Wilson knew that Dulles must be very proud now, in the midst of the arrogance of the winner.It must be very cool to watch yourself show the special relationship between Britain and the United States, even though you have suffered a lot from the United Kingdom, right?

However, the killing of Mossadegh was carried out by Britain and the United States, and at the same time, the purge of Iran's pro-Soviet forces was also carried out together.Yi Mossadegh advocated to take back the oil resources, but he suffered this kind of fate. Even if he died, there would be a large number of sympathizers.

The British power has receded from Iran, and it will be up to the Americans to face this hostility independently in the future.The United States can support Pahlavi and maintain American interests with high-pressure rule, but the greater the pressure, the more violent the volcanic eruption will be.

Furthermore, Kennedy also sent Aramco, and the United States is not free.

No matter how bad it is, it will add a lot of extra costs to the United States, as well as increase the hostility of Iranians towards the United States that can never be eliminated.

"If Mr. Wilson doesn't mind, how about we go to Tehran with King Pahlavi?" Dulles offered to propose, ostensibly to let Britain experience the joy of victory.

In fact, what Dulles meant was to let the British witness the victory that belonged to the Americans.

The facts are now obvious, the United States is the winner of this dogfight.But the United States is willing to share some of the glory of victory with Britain, so that it can stand with the United States to deal with the Soviet Union in the next action.

"I am very willing, very honored." Alan Wilson also knew Dulles' thoughts, but pretended not to know, and directly agreed to Dulles' invitation, as if he was really happy for this victory.

Dulles nodded. He has already judged that Alan Wilson, like the average British, is trying to protect the interests of the United Kingdom as much as possible, but when it comes to the Soviet Union, he will still stand firmly with the United States. .

Dulles can understand that the old father is unwilling to withdraw from the stage of history, and this needs to be beaten from time to time.When Britain's national strength drops to a certain level, I believe the British will accept the reality.

Four days after leaving Tehran, Pahlavi finally ended his short exile career this time. Accompanied by the intelligence chiefs of the United Kingdom and the United States, he set foot on his way home with great ambition, without any previous embarrassment.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The air in Tehran seems to still smell of blood. After the previous bloodshed, the citizens still have lingering fears.

"The weather has changed." Alan Wilson got off the plane, in front of Dulles, with a playful look on his face.

"That's right, Allen." Dulles also smiled, expressing his agreement with the British secretary-general in charge of intelligence.

Then the two went straight to the palace under the escort of the military. Pahlavi, who had fled in a hurry before, returned to his kingdom under the escort of intelligence chiefs from Britain and the United States.

Alan Wilson almost immediately demanded that the arrest warrant be issued immediately, and a series of organizations suspected of being pro-Soviet, such as the Iranian People's Party, the Mass Party, the National Front, and trade union organizations, were all included in the scope of attack.

Dulles had already felt that Allen Wilson was venting his anger this time, so he couldn't help but said, "It still needs to go through a trial, and we can't kill it directly..."

"Mr. Dulles, the Soviets will laugh at us. Do you think how efficient the Soviets have shown in the Congo thing? We will be looked down upon if we don't respond!"

Alan Wilson held a piece of newspaper and answered calmly, "This can be understood as a test field. If the free world can prove that it can succeed in Iran, then any country smaller than Iran should be fine to deal with it." Question. There are still many countries bewitched by the Soviet Union and need to promote successful examples, isn’t it?”

Alan Wilson's tone can be described as calm, but the murderousness contained in it cannot be underestimated.

Allen Wilson was talking about the Congo, and what Dulles heard was also about the Congo, but the overtones were not just about the Congo. The CIA’s failed work, Cuba, is still standing under the eyes of the United States, facing the softness of the United States. belly, ready to unleash weapons at any time.

"Of course we respect the rule of law, but we must also consider the reality. We cannot sit and watch irresponsibly. Many countries one-sidedly think that the Soviet Union is good, and they should indeed stop it."

Dulles finally nodded, the Iranian problem should have been resolved long ago, and a heavy blow must be struck.

Kermit Roosevelt immediately defined Mossadegh's role this time as being bewitched by the Soviet Union, a Soviet agent lurking inside Iran, subverting Iran's peace and stability, and informed Pahlavi who had just returned.

At the same time, they took out the list drawn up by Allen Wilson, and asked Pahlavi to issue a warrant for arrest.

On the streets of Tehran at this time, only the military and police can still show up without any scruples, and there are some Pahlavi supporters who help the military and police maintain order and inform the police.

"With Iran's religious environment, the capital has such a large red-light district. No wonder the free world is not very popular." Alan Wilson, who was sitting in a military vehicle, commented on what he saw and heard.

While the two were talking, the supporters holding up the portrait of Pahlavi were cheering and celebrating Mossadegh's imprisonment. Everyone had a smile on their faces.

"It's hard to imagine that Mossadegh should be very popular." Major McCordick was puzzled.

"It's nothing strange." Alan Wilson said with a haha, "People at the bottom don't know what is right and wrong. As long as the unlucky people are higher than them and have wealth, they will be secretly happy in their hearts. The unlucky one today is Morgan Sadei, they cheered happily, and the people of Tehran still cheered for the unlucky Pahlavi in ​​the future.”

"Actually, there is nothing to see. In fact, I really want to meet Mossadegh. I want to ask him if he will regret this fate of being a national hero? But forget it. What if he really regrets it? It will destroy his image in my heart."

Judging from the series of scenes in which Pahlavi fled and Mossadegh surrendered in the past few days, the situation in Iran is simply laughable.Neither of the two protagonists can be considered a peerless hero.

"The purge of Mossadegh and his supporters is the prerequisite for the UK to lift the sanctions. This matter must not be let go."

Alan Wilson looked directly at Major McCordick, "Britain has repeatedly stated that it can talk to Mossadegh, but he has repeatedly rejected us. Since we want to be a national hero, we will give him The treatment of a national hero. Don't have any sympathy, it's all he asked for."

Dulles also came with preparations this time. Many members of the Iranian security department Savak received training in the United States and were apprentices of the CIA.

Dulles came to Iran to express the attitude of the United States, but he could not stay in Iran for a long time. Norman Schwarzkopf, who followed Dulles, will replace Dulles in Iran and assist Pahlavi in ​​controlling Iran situation.

At the same time to prevent Britain from taking the opportunity to expand its influence, Norman Schwarzkopf soon met with McCordick, and the two will, on behalf of the United Kingdom and the United States, restore peace to Iran for a period of time.

At this moment, the members of Savak have already begun to arrest the Pahlavi supporters in the chaos this time, and announced the rewards and reports, and called on people in the army and the government to expose their own crimes. Friends, whether you are part of the People's Party, the Popular Party, the National Front or a trade union organization.

These intelligence personnel who returned to Iran from the United States put the whole of Iran in a state of horror.

The dramatic change in the situation in Iran caught the Soviet Union, who thought Mossadegh had the situation under control, by surprise.

The Kremlin and the members of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union were silent. It seems that there is no good way to do it except pressure and criticism.

"It's astonishing." Kozlov was a fiery temper, cursing the audacity of the British and American countries.If the talks fail, stay and launch a coup d'état.

"Facts have proved that the United Kingdom and the United States have reached an agreement, and the United Kingdom should have made a compromise with the United States. This cannot be blamed on our intelligence agencies. The Iranian oil crisis, the United Kingdom and the United States have been at odds for so long. Shaking hands and making peace so soon, we are colluding." Brezhnev also expressed his understanding for the intelligence department.

Although Fultseva's face is calm, her heart is still quite complicated. Although she is not the director of a powerful department, as a member of the Central Bureau, her position is here. The Soviet Union can hide no secrets from her theoretically.

The cultural tsar also saw the name of Alan Wilson in the intelligence collected by the KGB this time, just after Dulles, director of the US Central Intelligence Agency.

"Comrade Furtseva, how do you think we should react?" Brezhnev asked.

"Even if it is a reaction, there are not many ways to do it now." Fultseva replied calmly, "Try to create public opinion for Mossadegh as a true patriot, and at the same time expose the despicable behavior of the United Kingdom and the United States at the United Nations. In the end, use the involvement of the intelligence chiefs of the United Kingdom and the United States as evidence of the subversion of Iran by both countries.”

The TASS news agency quickly used the Iranian coup as a special report, denouncing the shameless acts of British and American imperialism and colonialism.

Alan Wilson, who was about to leave Tehran but hadn't left yet, had a Romance of the Three Kingdoms by his side and a newspaper in Russian and Chinese characters in his hand, and asked Pahlavi's translator to read it for him.

Although the content of the translated Pravda and the newspaper in the hands of Alan Wilson is similar, it has been concluded that he and Dulles, the minions of imperialism, and the executioners with bloody hands.

But, Alan Wilson had a calm face, and he was chatting and laughing with Dulles when he came.

"Across the Iron Curtain, the two of us are already the most damned people in the world." Dulles said with a half-smile.

"I am very happy to be recognized by the enemy." Alan Wilson is upright, a veteran anti-Soviet, and an executioner of imperialism. To him, it is not a bad name, but a golden amulet.

"In fact, if the United Kingdom showed a moderate attitude, the situation in Iran would not have evolved to what it is today." Dulles smiled, "The United States is not disgusted with the United Kingdom, but to resist the spread of the Soviet Union's influence. The world should be more fair. .”

"Britain has always said that it wants to talk to Mossadegh. It is because he thinks that Britain is settled." Allen Wilson replied calmly to Dulles, "Britain has shown the greatest restraint in the whole incident. Overthrow Mossadegh."

The United Kingdom did not send troops, but the United States sent troops to Cuba.

"Secretary-General, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is asking if you will be attending the independence of the Nigerian Dominion next month." Major McCordick came in with a telegram, nodded at Dulles, and asked.

"I have other things." Alan Wilson replied with a calm face. "Of course, for the independence of the Nigerian Dominion, everything followed the steps. The United Kingdom is a country that keeps its promise. I wish Nigeria will develop well after independence."

After staying in Tehran for a few days, after Dulles left Iran, Alan Wilson also left Tehran after he personally paid attention to the charges against Mossadegh, meeting in Basra and reaching Pamela Mountbatten.

The duo will head to the Land Rover factory in Malaya for a phony show.

"Honey, you have done your best for Britain." Pamela Mountbatten knew that her husband was dissatisfied with the outcome of the situation in Iran, so she could only persuade her with good words.

"I don't deny that." Alan Wilson said with a face full of responsibility. He fought for Britain for eight more years, otherwise Iran would have lost it in the 50s. Unfortunately, Kennedy sent Aramco to Saudi Arabia with a set of seven-injury punches. Beyond the capacity of the UK to bid.

However, the time is still long, and winning first is not considered a win. Alan Wilson is still satisfied with the current strength of the United Kingdom.

But if it really wants to be better, it is not enough to rely on the UK's own efforts. It needs the overall environment to be beneficial to the UK, such as a war that severely damages the US economy.

"I think the group's manufacturing projects, especially the auto industry, should be spun off and listed." Alan Wilson put his wife on his lap and gave his own suggestions.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"I'll listen to you." Pamela Mountbatten put her arms around her husband's neck and said without hesitation, "You are more discerning than me."

"Retaining Malaya is to hedge against Japan. Now Japan is competing with Britain and even Europe in all aspects."

Alan Wilson said solemnly, "There is no country in Europe with a population of nearly [-] million. Once Japan is not contained at the beginning, it will be troublesome to contain it in the future. Now the shipbuilding industry is being competed by the Japanese shipbuilding industry. And it’s not just shipbuilding that the UK faces competition from.”

Pamela Mountbatten nodded. She had heard from her husband that the United States was using Germany and Japan to hedge against Britain and France to balance the free world and check each other. "So you chose Land Rover."

"In fact, if we want to compete in an all-round way, the population of Malaya is still small. We can only develop a few industries in a targeted manner. If the population is too large, it is difficult for the UK to control, and it is not a particular industry. The UK has sufficient technical reserves. "

Alan Wilson shook his head and said, "The electronic industry of black goods and white goods also needs a huge labor force. But we don't have enough population. We can try to hand it over to Xiangjiang for development, but Xiangjiang's population is not large enough to eat Just a little bit."

The four industries of automobiles, shipbuilding, petrochemicals, and steel are the industries that Alan Wilson believes that Malaya can try.Both car and shipbuilding Britain has sufficient technical reserves, and this is not a problem.

The problem is that Britain's labor costs are at a disadvantage in the competition, and the shipbuilding industry can adjust and see.But this car?Land Rover and Jaguar are positioned above Mercedes-Benz and BMW, which is a level of Porsche.

In terms of the labor cost in the UK, it is not enough to not position it this way, and it is barely profitable if it is positioned at a high end.Local labor costs cannot be reduced, and we can only focus on mid-to-high end.There are Rolls-Royce, Bentley, McLaren on it.

Fighting hand-to-hand with Japan, which is relying on its demographic dividend, the auto industry must die miserably.

That's why Alan Wilson asked Pamela Mountbatten to buy Land Rover, transfer it to Malaya, and launch Land Rover Discovery to reduce costs and start to fight hand-to-hand with Japanese cars that started going overseas.

The reason why he selected several industries in Malaya is because these industries either need technical support or resource support, which are currently Japan's shortcomings.

The United States can provide technical support to Japan, but the extent to which it is provided is at the discretion of the United States.

One day the United States does not want to give, and Japan loses technical support, which is the beginning of Japan's difficulties.

For petrochemicals and steel, you can rely on the remaining sphere of influence of the United Kingdom to help. In terms of resource support, the United Kingdom is definitely above Japan, even if it is relatively local. Does Japan have coal and iron?It's available on the UK island.

"Steel and automobiles are restructured and listed separately. There is no need for oil and iron ore." Alan Wilson also knew that his wife had no shortage of cash flow, and explained in detail, "Concern Group is certainly a giant with everything in it, but unlimited expansion into new industries is also a challenge. It will cause operational problems, not all industries can be used as family businesses, and some industries are more beneficial to go public.”

The advantage of the Concern Group is that various industrial chains cooperate with each other, and they are timid before facing competitors.

However, once the Concern Group expands to a certain scale, it will experience the same big enterprise disease as state-owned enterprises.

The administrative agencies of large enterprises will continue to increase like a pyramid, and the administrative staff will continue to expand. Everyone is busy, but the organizational efficiency is getting lower and lower.This law is also known as the phenomenon of "rising the pyramid".

"Your Whitehall is perfectly in line with the big corporate disease you said." Pamela Mountbatten covered her mouth and chuckled, "That's how many people see it, the Whitehall civil servant system."

"It's the same thing in itself, but it can't be changed. That's why I said that the Mountbatten Group should reorganize." Alan Wilson said with a wry smile, "When you hire more and more people, the employees who serve you If there are hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, wouldn’t that make Whitehall what it is now?”

Pamela Mountbatten tilted her head, thought for a moment and said, "It's true, it really should be changed."

She unconditionally agrees with the head of the family, and she believes that her husband must be doing it for her own good. "This time, when you go to Malaya, you must not simply walk around. You must have your own purpose."

"Bringing British capital in Malaya and Hong Kong under control." Alan Wilson replied [-], "At the same time, carry out industrial planning and set up a big filter for Japan. In terms of assets, Japan is far from the UK now. Opponents. But this is not the case in terms of labor, I want to make a reasonable allocation of the labor force that Britain can use."

The population that Britain can count on now is not British East Africa anyway, although when British India first became independent, Britain had the idea of ​​establishing British East Africa with British Kenya as the core to replace British India.

What can be counted on is British Malaya plus Xiangjiang. Now Malaya has 600 million people, Xiangjiang has 300 million people, and the population is about 2000 million.If it is not enough, there are still 20 people in the casino ruled by Portugal. Although it is a drop in the bucket, it is better than nothing.

He is also going to talk to Salazar in Portugal, and quickly legalize gambling in the casino.He remembered that it was this year that the Salazar government specially approved a bet that it would promote the development of the local economy.In the same year, the Portuguese government of Macao promulgated the "Regulations for Investment in Gambling and Entertainment", thus legalizing the gaming industry.

As a good friend of Salazar, how can this forget about Goa? Obviously, Goa's size and population are more suitable for the legalization of the gaming industry, which is used to absorb the huge black money existing in India.

Alan Wilson worked as an assistant to the commissioner in British India, and he knew very well that private lending had existed in India since ancient times.Otherwise, the old fairy Modi would not have single-handedly abolished the decree and used black money from the people to rob the poor and help the rich.

But it is impossible to go deep into India to do this kind of thing. India and a certain big country have different historical memories.A certain big country was knocked at the door, and the memory of the Indians is that the East India Company, through British trade, destroyed India's textile industry and was colonized.

So since India's independence, after Nehru came to power, complicated laws were passed to protect India's industries from being controlled by foreign capital, which even lasted into the 21st century.

India is definitely not targeting a certain country, although its northern neighbor has suffered as a result.But it is purely a misunderstanding to think that India is a dish.

Nearby are China, Japan, South Korea, and far away are Europe and the United States. The Indian government has always treated them equally, sucking in and killing them, even the world's hegemony, the United States is no exception.

In this regard, India can definitely be regarded as a big country with great reputation, no matter which country it comes from, foreign capital is treated equally.

In traditional industries, Ford announced its withdrawal from the Indian market, and in emerging industries, Amazon and India's Ambani competed for the market, which directly caused the Indian government to freeze Amazon's merger and acquisition plan.It is useless for foreign capital to win the lawsuit. The Indian government can pretend to be dead and not implement it.

The Indian government, which has such a criminal record, is also planning to introduce Musk's Tesla, and is preparing to replicate its brilliant record in new energy.

Entering a market controlled by the Indian government is a dead end, but it is precisely possible to do it now, because Alan Wilson has been fishing for Nehru with Goa.Goa is a place similar to Macau. It can use Goa's special status to stir up private lending in India.

The benefits of doing so, of course, are first of all Portugal's benefits. Salazar, a staunch colonial ruler, can get Goa's profits, and at the same time, the Mountbatten Group can cooperate with the Goa colonial authorities to make money together.

Pamela Mountbatten looked amazed, and heard Alan Wilson say, "In the long run, Goa is unsustainable. It's just a place suitable for making quick money. Get as much profit as possible as quickly as possible. That is the historic mission of Goa."

Although Salazar will definitely defend the Portuguese colonial empire to the end, he will also die of old age.

Moreover, once India is humiliated by hitting a mountain, there is no guarantee that it will not change its direction to regain face, and Goa will not be able to keep it in the long run.

Alan Wilson now wants to integrate funds as much as possible. He doesn't even want Goa to have any industries. The whole of Goa will become a casino. After India takes it back, life in Goa will inevitably plummet, and India will spend a lot of money to stabilize it. the situation on the ground.

The couple quickly reached a consensus on this point. This plan involves two casino projects, one is the one next to the Xiangjiang River, which is used to attract guests from Southeast Asia, and the other is Goa, which is used to leverage the ghosts and snakes in India.

"Then, I think we'll go to Goa first." Pamela Mountbatten offered to propose, "If you want to make money, don't delay, otherwise it will be a crime."

"Besides, my dear, it would be strange if you didn't make a fortune." Alan Wilson put his arms around his wife's delicate body, and one hand was already on the woman's thigh.
