British civil servant

Why did the Morgan family want to acquire the steel company?Isn't it because, if the largest steel company is in your own hands, it is easier to be a referee and a goalkeeper at the same time.

All the way out of the Morgan Sledan building, Derek was in a state of excitement and couldn't help himself. He didn't know that in Henry Morgan's eyes, he was the same as Hollywood stars in his eyes before, maybe not as good...

As a well-known bank, Chase Bank naturally also has branches in the Far East. After the manager of the Modu branch received the telegram from the New York headquarters, he understood what the mission this time was.

Soon they packed their bags and boarded the ship, and went to British India, which was in dire straits in front of the whole world but tenaciously resisted disasters.

Distance has never been a problem for capital, and there is not enough manpower in the Philippines. The Chase Bank branch in Manila, the capital of the Philippines, also received a local telegram and assembled a professional team to go to British India to find out the truth.

Find out if it's what Derek says it is!

Derek, who is still in the United States, is preparing for his official debut with a progressive heart, supplementing everything in British India, and preparing to contribute to the expansion of U.S. Steel Corporation in the most important market in Asia. Take a look at yourself.

Chapter 256 Heidi Lamar

In fact, there are voices of opposition within the U.S. Steel Corporation. Even Derek’s elder brother thinks that his younger brother is a little risky. After contacting Derek, he said, “I think we have done everything we can in the past. A certain degree of ambition is necessary; but once you step into the battlefield of greed, it will be a very tragic thing!"

And Derek replied to his brother's advice like this, "Due to various constraints, we are still unable to expand our business at a faster speed. Even if you assert that I am a super radical, I still hope that you can stand on the side of a From the standpoint of directors, put yourself in the situation and calmly review the current problems."

"Even at the current optimistic growth rate, the purchase of new equipment and the expansion of factories will exhaust the bank's maximum borrowing funds, and even the after-tax surplus. Considering that the accumulated liabilities in the bank are increasing year by year , Can we still say that we have established a firm foothold in the market? And it will take several years to repay the loan and pay the interest!"

"If nothing else happens, this will be an opportunity to make a small investment and get a big return. Against the background of the domestic economic prosperity. This time the merger is definitely not a blind expansion. On the contrary, if it succeeds, it will only make our business develop further. The risk is actually not that great, but the reward is big.”

At Katharine Hepburn's home in Los Angeles, Vivien Leigh kept asking Heidi Rama like a fan, and she was completely admiring Heidi Rama.

厽厼.In fact, with the current fame of the two, Vivien Leigh does not need to be like this at all, but the world is so wonderful. Vivien Leigh admires Heidi Lamarr, whose film achievements are not as good as her own, which makes Heidi Lamarr feel that be surprised.

"Vivienne, see what you said." Heidi Lamarr was flattered by Vivien Leigh's enthusiasm. Heidi Ramarr has cooperated with many well-known directors. These films have also been nominated for many important awards, but the honors belong to others Yes, compared with many famous female stars, Heidi Lamarr's achievements in awards can be described as lackluster.

It's shocking that a female star like Vivien Leigh, who has achieved both fame and fortune, is still her admirer.

The recent Vivien Leigh is a typical example of gaining both fame and fortune. Driven by various reasons, Vivien Leigh's influence has risen even when no movie has been released, and praise from all sides has rushed to her face.

Even at the United Nations meeting, it was regarded as a positive image. If there is any title of United Nations Goodwill Ambassador in this era, then Vivien Leigh, who is now working for British India, is a sure candidate.

The name of a female star often appears in the social news and is mentioned in the United Nations meeting, which makes Heidi Lamarr very envious. This is exactly what she is after, but she has never obtained what she is after. Even the patented technology obtained is not taken seriously.

Heidi Lamarr came into contact with "spread spectrum communication technology" from her first husband Fritz Mandel.He supported Germany and even became the Austrian army supplier of major German armaments.

They are working on radio signal remote-controlled torpedoes and wireless communication jamming techniques.Although wireless communication technology was the country's highest-level military secret at the time, when Mandel talked about related technologies with weapons experts, he allowed Heidi to listen in and even record.

Heidi Rama, who later fled Austria, brought spread spectrum communication technology to the United States and applied for a patent.

They got a patent certificate issued by the United States and donated the patent to the U.S. government, hoping to help the war.

At the suggestion of Charles Kettering, the Navy held a joint meeting with the National Invention Council and the FBI to study whether the invention of Heidi and Antheil could be put into military use.

Heidi opened the drawings and tried to explain the mechanism, showing that some parts of it worked like the basic mechanism in a player piano.When military officers heard that the principles of military weapons came from pianos, they thought it was ridiculous.Heidi herself was more interested in these officers and soldiers than engineering drawings.

Even because of her marriage in Austria, Heidi Lamarr was investigated by the FBI. They are also beautiful female stars. Looking at Vivien Leigh, looking at the things she touched, Heidi Lamarr was really very happy Difficult to balance.

The so-called time makes heroes, Vivien Leigh has the sincere praise of the British Empire, and the United States, which harbors evil intentions for British India, is enthusiastically admiring it with ill intentions, which has become the current situation.

If it weren't for the connotation of the British Indian colonial government, would American public opinion be so uniformly enthusiastic about Vivien Leigh?

Vivien Leigh couldn't see this, but there was still a master of micromanipulation on the subcontinent reminding her.

It is absolutely abnormal for the United States to care about British India now. If the United Kingdom lets go of the subcontinent in the next few years, it is okay. If the United Kingdom insists on maintaining its colonial rule in British India, it is estimated that the drama of patricide will not have to wait until the Suez Canal War. will play out.

This craze has already arrived in the United States. Anyone who does not express goodwill to British India with Vivien Leigh has already had a problem with character. Joan Crawford and Bette Davis are typical examples.

When she learned that Vivien Leigh hoped to invite one of Joan Crawford and Bette Davis to help her call attention to British India, the entertainment news exploded all of a sudden, and many newspapers were speculating whether the two long-lost And the female star, who is the vicious woman in the other party's mouth.

It can be said that the current public opinion environment on the Great Famine in India already has a hint of political correctness in later generations.Anyone who does not express sympathy for the drought in the subcontinent is a bad woman, and only a slogan that Indian lives are precious is missing.

When the public opinion news is looking forward to who the vicious woman is, Joan Crawford and Bette Davis, who have already felt the direction of public opinion, expressed at the same time that they would help Vivien Leigh, raise funds for the drought in British India, and get rid of the horrible Being politically correct, let the melon-eating crowd watching the excitement realize that a clown is actually my own treatment.

It is precisely because Joan Crawford and Bette Davis were taken care of by the horrible public opinion, and Heidi Lamarr, who has been experiencing the unfair treatment in the United States for several years, came to the door after Vivien Leigh sent an invitation. Unexpectedly, It has also been viewed differently by the darling of public opinion.

The purpose of Heidi Rama's coming is naturally to pursue progress. How many people in this world are willing to stand still?Celebrities instinctively follow hot spots, and Heidi Lamarr is also a star, so it is inevitable.

In the United States now, sympathy for British India is the biggest hot spot. After Derek went to Morgan Stanley, this hot spot not only did not cool down, but because U.S. Steel Corporation expressed its willingness to purchase grain in the name of the company and transport it to The British Raj was even more popular.

Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Heidi Lamarr, Lana Turner, Tallulaban Kerhead, Pauline Goddard, Miriam Hopkins, Joan Bennett, Katharine Hepburn, Ingrid Bergman, Claudette Colbert, plus Vivien Leigh herself, a total of [-] female stars with outstanding looks, strength and good looks, have helped push forward The interest of people who eat melons.

With the blessing of this craze, Vivien Leigh's girlfriends group is expanding at a terrifying speed. The United Nations named Vivien Leigh, the kindest goddess, and her circle of friends expanded at a speed that she had never felt in the first 30 years of her life.

"The definition of derivatives is a series of services or products that can be sold through the use of original characters and carefully designed by professional designers. Such as audio-visual products, movies, books, toys, and animation image models , clothing, beverages, health care products, socks, shoes, stationery, etc. can all be developed into derivatives.”

Alan Wilson was also taken aback by Vivien Leigh's efficiency. Although it has the effect of guiding public opinion, Vivien Leigh's efficiency is too high. It has almost wiped out all the top female stars in Vivien Leigh's era. If the newspaper group is successful, later The road ahead may not be smooth.

But when I think about it, most of them are Americans, and the problem affects the United States, so there is no problem.

After getting the U.S. Steel Corporation to purchase food in the name of the company and to assist British India, the assistant commissioner who had already seen the bad intentions of the Americans, through Vivien Leigh's telegram, could also feel the traces of operations that were obviously oriented by public opinion.

I don't know if it's the trust company or the US federal government, maybe there are both, otherwise the Americans are idle?To have so much sympathy for British India is totally out of the ordinary.

However, Americans can raise donations as much as they want, anyway, the distribution is still in the hands of British India, and he has the final say on whether to give it or not.Aid materials appeared on the black market, so could he not do what Mr. Chang did?

The soldiers came to downgrade, and Alan Wilson, who was busy formulating the health bill for British India, just waited, and he still had time to help Vivien Leigh with ideas on how to expand its influence, quickly capitalize on the current upsurge, and through derivatives products have a more lasting impact.

Twelve people correspond to the Golden Zodiac in ancient Greece. Alan Wilson has only watched Saint Seiya in anime with similar settings. Anyway, it is just a suggestion. Let Vivien Leigh find a way to bind this setting, and then pull other female stars cash together.

As for the $20 favor fee that Derek said, it can be collected first and used to develop his career. Anyway, once an American with bad intentions arrives in British India, he will definitely find a way to find him. That is the big head.

The benefit fee of 20 U.S. dollars was directly transferred to Vivien Leigh by Alan Wilson. The Great Britain Bao asked himself that he had seen the world, but this time he realized that the so-called seen the world was not enough.

Chapter 257 The American Guest

If it was Alan Wilson who wanted to see more of this kind of world, if he hadn't dug the Golden Temple, even if he knew that the benefits would be greater, he wouldn't be able to give Vivien Leigh $20 without blinking his eyes.

Take British India as an example. Although the rupee and the US dollar are both currencies, the US dollar can be exchanged for gold. Whether the rupee can be sold for gold depends on the mood.

Since the outbreak of the drought, the assistant commissioner, who has a hobby of collecting, has found that when buying gold with rupees, it seems to be getting more and more difficult, and his suitcase is not even full.

If 20 dollars were placed in front of Alan Wilson, maybe he would regret it, but didn't he not see the real thing?

The development of derivatives in the United States in later generations has been very mature, and the revenue of film and television derivatives has more than doubled the box office. The box office of super IP has entered a plateau period, and IP seeks to realize it through multiple channels.The success of the six major Hollywood film companies is not only due to the possession of high-quality IP, but also to the multi-channel monetization model.

Hollywood's animation derivatives market often uses various marketing methods to promote the movie before it is released, so even if a female star has no work currently released, she can still make money through derivatives.

When everyone is not aware of it, it is very risky to be the first person to eat crabs, but after success, as a trailblazer, the rewards are unimaginable.

In the telegram sent by Vivien Leigh's relishing readers, it must be admitted that Alan Wilson is definitely a role model in helping others, and he almost spared everything to help those around him.I am willing to be poor and work as a civil servant in the colony.

This time, through the concept of derivatives, it pointed out the future for Vivien Leigh, which moved the heart of Great Britain.

"Is it Oliver's telegram?" When Katharine Hepburn came down from the stairs, she happened to see Vivien Leigh curled up on the sofa, holding the telegram with a smirk, and joked before anyone arrived.

Vivien Leigh turned her head suddenly, as if she was taken aback. After hearing Katharine Hepburn's words, she flashed embarrassment and forced a smile, "Oh, no, it's me...a good brother."

Vivien Leigh's tightness made Katharine Hepburn suspicious. There would be no marriage change. She traveled across the ocean to England to attend Vivien Leigh's wedding. The loving scene was not fake.

Katharine Hepburn, who had doubts in her heart, did not ask her doubts because of the friendship between the two, and asked as if there was no abnormality, "Is that the boy who is a civil servant? Mr. Derek said that he would give him 20 US dollars As for the benefit fee, this is not a small sum, and ordinary people will not be able to earn so much in a lifetime."

Katharine Hepburn's unintentional words made Vivien Leigh, who had just been hit by 20 dollars, agree in her heart, but she almost showed her flaws just now, and now she can only play Oscar's acting skills, pretending to be indifferent.

However, playing Oscar acting skills in front of Katharine Hepburn is simply a trick. She is currently the ceiling of the actress. The more Vivien Leigh does this, the more certain her guess is.

"That idiot, he just likes to be a civil servant, and he probably doesn't even have a concept of money." Vivien Leigh couldn't help mentioning Alan Wilson, but she felt relieved when she said it. Just hearing what others said made her suffocate, "It's a pity that my brain There's so much whimsy in there."

"It may be that they have little knowledge. Most civil servants are unknown. Once they realize the popularity, it may be different." While speaking, Katharine Hepburn looked at Vivien Leigh's expression with veiled eyes.

"Not well-known? He is the most famous civil servant in the British Empire." Vivien Leigh couldn't help covering her mouth and giggling, revealing the famous photo of Alan Wilson saving French women on the streets of Paris.

It was even a potentially textbook scene, widely known across the UK.

"There is such a thing." Katharine Hepburn couldn't help but smile when she heard it, and exclaimed, "Is it so famous?"

"It's no less famous than mine." Vivien Leigh said with a smile, "The most important thing is that he doesn't seem to know about it yet. He only stayed in Europe for a few months before returning to British India."

Before Katharine Hepburn asked, Vivien Leigh revealed the derivatives plan mentioned by Allen Wilson, saying that this is a good opportunity to make money. Although the female stars involved have already been financially free, who would hate money.

How to take advantage of the current craze to cash in, you can try.For these stars, they have seen a lot of popular and past, and they all cherish the current popularity.

All industries are the same, today's society is constantly growing and improving, however, some entrepreneurs are more passive.They believe that as long as the new projects developed have actual profits, they can consider that the most difficult and dangerous period has passed, and they have overcome all the troubles of repaying debts and starting a business.

At this point, it can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai.Now that the business has entered the stage of level flight, there is really no need to expand, because the company will not collapse even if it encounters one or two crises mentioned above, so just sit comfortably, safely and comfortably.

At this point, Hollywood female stars can feel a sense of crisis even more than American entrepreneurs.

There is a law that is common in the film industry, and Hollywood is no exception, that is, male actors carry the box office. Even when female stars are most famous, compared with male actors who are also famous .

When Vivien Leigh was filming Gone with the Wind, her salary was 20 U.S. dollars, so she was shocked when Derek asked for a 100 U.S. dollar salary. Act shocked.

Because of this, female stars must expand the market, and must agree to various conditions to maintain their popularity.

Even if it's not for herself, Vivien Leigh also wants to help others so that she can gain a firm foothold in the highly competitive Hollywood.

At New Delhi Airport, as the DC-3 passenger plane slowly landed, Morgan Sledan's elite team finally arrived in New Delhi, which perfectly embodies the efficiency of capitalism.

The world airliner market in this era is also in the hands of Americans just like later generations.In fact, the emergence of the Comet airliner itself is a challenge to the world aviation market.

DC-3 was launched in 3. DC-30 can carry [-] passengers. It can cross the east and west coasts of the United States with only one refueling in the middle. Set up the bed, which revolutionized commercial flying.

Due to its superior performance, DC-3 has been purchased in large quantities by airlines around the world.Until the eve of World War II, more than 90.00% of countries in the world traveled by plane were DC-3 planes. DC-3 has more stable performance, lower operating cost and easy maintenance.The military version is the famous C-47 military transport aircraft.

In fact, if you want to come to British India, you can get there very quickly. It’s just that some people who don’t like flying like to take a boat, such as Alan Wilson, General Mountbatten, that’s another problem, he doesn’t want to come at all.

In this regard, the happy civil servants who are immersed in heavy work still don't know anything about it. Alan Wilson is so busy, working hard for the well-being of hundreds of millions of people in the subcontinent, and never tired of it.

And the business elites from outside the subcontinent are not in a hurry, but are now shopping in the two urban areas of Delhi.Comparing the differences between New Delhi and Delhi, I have gained some understanding of British India.

"The climate here is almost the same as Nevada." Several business elites were deeply impressed by the weather in New Delhi. New Delhi itself is an inland city, and the hot weather is the kind of heat that does not mix with any other factors.

Both Shanghai and Manila are coastal cities, and the heat is different from the heat.After walking around the business elite representing Chase Bank, they found a place to live.

Let's take a rest first and talk about it. As for whether there are prostitutes in this city, I will look for them tomorrow!It's not that there are no members who are interested in Derry City and want to find exotic excitement.

After two days of ignorance, Alan Wilson had to put down his work and deal with a group of Americans who were in trouble in New Delhi.

On this occasion, the two parties met, the matter was dealt with immediately, and Alan Wilson was also left behind. Wilkins introduced himself, "I am from Chase Bank in Manila. I am very happy to meet Mr. Alan. You are younger than I thought."

"Why can't we meet through troublesome things?" Alan Wilson already knew through telegrams that a group of bastards with ulterior motives for the precious mineral resources of British India were coming to the door, but he still couldn't understand this way.

"Because we are really in trouble and have to ask the Governor's Mansion for help." Wilkins turned his head and glared at a member behind him with embarrassment on his face. He even flirted with other people's wives, which is a shame for Chase Bank.

"Oh?" Alan Wilson's face turned from cloudy to cloudy, and he wanted to find a chance to appease the expatriate couple, "It's very detailed about the Americans in my impression."

"Mr. Allen, don't be offended, it's just a misunderstanding." Wilkins quickly apologized, "We are willing to make some compensation. Of course, this kind of trivial matter is not worth discussing too much. Aren't we going to talk about a big deal? It belongs to us Great deals between."

"Ah!" Alan Wilson nodded with his mouth wide open. If he could see his expression now, his jaw would be shocked. How could he open such a gluttonous mouth? Make a contribution to the relationship and receive tourists from afar."

"Thank you Mr. Allen for your reception." Wilkins responded with a tacit smile.

Chapter 258 The Special Relationship between Britain and the United States

"It's all because blood is thicker than water." Alan Wilson responded with a half-smile, "You Americans have heard this sentence."

The term "blood is thicker than water" is not a Chinese idiom, but a British proverb, but it really made this term famous and known to the Chinese, starting in 1960.

The Anglo-French coalition forces’ attack on Taku was frustrated, and the American fleet in the Far East participated in the battle, making this sentence one of the famous sayings in American history.

When the general in command was asked why he violated the principle of American neutrality by assisting the British fleet fighting China at Takukou, he argued that blood is thicker than water.厽厼厽厼

"Of course, blood is thicker than water, but now China is also an important member of the Allies." Wilkins obviously understood the historical origin of blood is thicker than water, and he was quite politically aware when he answered.

The elites are different from the naive red-necked farmers in the United States!Alan Wilson murmured in his heart, and stretched out his hand to signal, "Welcome to British India, and I have a few reminders before again. The currency of British India is rupees. In principle, the dollars you carry should be exchanged for rupees. India uses, this is a new regulation since the beginning of the year, I believe everyone should be able to understand this."

A colony is a colony!As soon as Wilkins heard it, he knew that this was a closed currency loop used to reserve dollars.

If you don't say that people who work in banks have experience in this area, that's what it really means.

No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. Alan Wilson, a civil servant of the British Empire, of course always puts the interests of the empire first.

Now the mainland is struggling to recover from the aftermath of the war. As the jewel in the crown of the British Empire, British India must do its part and set an example.

Out of sensitivity to money, Wilkins said, "I believe we won't suffer a loss, right?"

"Absolutely not. I will definitely pay attention to this matter and make a fair exchange." Alan Wilson nodded solemnly, and he could even let the other party take advantage of it by exchanging the brand new banknotes just off the production line of the money printing machine for the other party's U.S. dollars, and at the same time wish the other party a happy time in British India.

The first contact between the two sides left a deep impression on each other. In Wilkins' eyes, although Alan Wilson was very restrained, his greedy heart can also be seen from the side.

As for Americans like Wilkins, Alan Wilson believes that when they leave British India, they should leave cleanly, so as to have a positive effect on the financial burden of the British Empire.

The two of them retreated to the left and right, chatting one after another, talking unnutritious nonsense, and the atmosphere was relaxed and cozy.

"For a long time, the United States has not paid special attention to Asian affairs." Wilkins emphasized with a smile, "Especially British India, the treasure of the British Empire. But I believe that good things are never too late, and it is also time to start paying attention now." In time. Believe Mr. Allen, he should also welcome us, right?"

"Of course, everyone is a family." Alan Wilson nodded with a smile, "We face a common threat, and we should unite to maintain world peace."

Facing the threat of world peace and talking about maintaining world peace, Alan Wilson kept practicing Tai Chi. If people don't take the initiative to speak, he will not take the initiative to enter the substantive stage. This is the home court of the United Kingdom, and the rhythm must be controlled. .
