Banquets, dances, the next procedure is the reception, the band is withdrawn, so that people can chat better.
Such a social place has a more relaxed atmosphere, and it is actually a good opportunity to chat about things.
British Prime Minister Clement Attlee is now chatting with the head of the aid mission, US Deputy Secretary of State Dean Acheson. He hopes to get more cash assistance.
The Marshall aid plan in the United States is also planned and needs to be approved by Congress. It does not give as much as it wants to anyone. For example, this year, the United Kingdom can receive about 920 million US dollars in aid.
However, most of these aids are materials, such as cotton, grain, tobacco, oil, industrial products, etc., dumping excess production capacity and materials in the United States, while cash loans are only a very small part.
This year it's only $120 million.
For Britain, 120 million is like being hungry and thirsty in the desert for several days, but the United States sent half a glass of water.
It makes you still hungry and thirsty, but you won't be able to die for a while.
And those aid materials are also particular about, not what you want, what I give you, what you want, like the industrial raw materials urgently needed by the United Kingdom, but not included in the Marshall plan, those who want to buy with their own money.
what,
You said that I don't want the materials you dumped.
Even if you don’t want it, the aid plan is a whole. If you don’t want those dumped materials, you won’t be able to get the 120 million cash loan.
The Prime Minister and the Deputy Secretary of State are discussing now, hoping to increase cash assistance, which is very important for the economic recovery of the UK.
Acheson spread his hands and expressed helplessness.
The aid plan needs to pass Congress, and it is impossible to change it. To be honest, we can't provide more cash. In fact, we have already helped you think of this, so we brought a delegation. They are the largest consortia in the United States. If You can get a loan at their bank, maybe more than the bailout money.
The prime minister said in his heart, it's not that we didn't work hard. We have been negotiating with various banks these days, but they don't care about the loan.
The British government approached the Citigroup consortium, as well as Rockefeller and Hardy's Wells Fargo Bank, and several of them rejected the loan request with one voice.
Capitalists all know that the end of the war is the best time for bargain-hunting industries, but the United Kingdom is pursuing nationalization and taking everything into its arms.
The pitiful interest on the loan can't impress the capitalists at all. With cash in hand, they naturally want to acquire more assets. At this time, cash is really king.
The British Minister of Economy once approached Hardy, hoping to borrow 100 million U.S. dollars, and the interest rate was even higher than usual, but Hardy refused.
Based on five-year interest, the 100 million loan can only bring him a profit of 20 million U.S. dollars in five years.
And if the 100 million is invested, Hardy can double the 100 million funds several times, and other banks think the same way, so they basically reject the loan request.
Now in this world,
Survival is not easy for anyone.
…
Princess Margaret changed her clothes and reappeared at the reception. It is normal for the nobles to change clothes in the middle of the banquet. In ancient times, many nobles had to change three or four sets of clothes at a banquet.
Scanning the audience, she found that the nasty man was chatting with other people. She stared hard, planning to find a chance to take revenge.
But until the end of the reception, Princess Margaret did not find a chance.
She dared not take the initiative to provoke her, mainly because she was really frightened by that rascal just now.
Margaret went back to her dormitory dejectedly. When she passed the corridor, she happened to meet the royal bodyguard Peter Townsend walking towards her.
Hello, Your Royal Highness.
Margaret smiled back at Peter Townsend.
Peter Townsend is mature and handsome, he is the guard of King George VI's bedroom, and Princess Margaret has some affection for him.
A deep palace princess, at the age of sexual maturity, reads some love novels, will fantasize about love, and naturally find an imaginary object.
Peter Townsend is mature and handsome, giving people a sense of gentleness and elegance, which fits the fantasy characteristics very well, so he became Princess Margaret's imaginary lover.
To put it bluntly, it means looking good-looking.
'It starts with appearance'.
Many boys will have many fantasy objects on the way of growing up, such as the most beautiful girl in the class, such as the female star they like, and so on.
Is it the same for girls?
The current Margaret to Peter Townsend is actually just a girl's ignorant love fantasy.
Margaret didn't tell anyone about this idea, including Peter Townsend, and she didn't know that this high-ranking princess would regard herself as an object of fantasy.
The two had real contact. It was not until two years later that Margaret stopped satisfying her fantasies and approached Peter Townsend on her own initiative. Later, the two had an intimate relationship. It was not until 1953 that the relationship between the two was exposed.
At that time, Peter Townsend had just divorced his wife. After this incident was known to the British public, it caused a strong sensation. Many people said that Peter Townsend abandoned his wife in preparation for marrying the princess, and he was under great pressure from public opinion.
There was a lot of trouble, the royal family opposed it, the public opposed it, the prime minister put pressure on it, and Princess Margaret almost left the royal family.
at last.
The two broke up, Peter Townsend quickly married a twenty-year-old girl who was younger than Princess Margaret, and this girl was also a family heir with a lot of assets, and the farce ended like this.
And this incident is also known as one of the biggest scandals of the British royal family. Some people say that Margaret is the stain of the British royal family.
Peter Townsend bowed to the princess, his etiquette was very standard, and he walked forward again after Margaret passed, which was full of court style.
When she heard footsteps, Margaret habitually turned to look at Peter Townsend's back. In the past, she would stare at him for a long time. He thought Peter Townsend was so handsome everywhere, including walking.
Humph,
That man named Hardy is far from Peter Townsend.
is vulgar.
nasty.
Shameless guy.
Just thinking of this, Margaret woke up suddenly. Why did she think of that bastard? It must be because she hated him too much.
Turned back to the bedroom.
The servant waited for the princess to take a bath. While taking a bath, her hands brushed her skin, but she stopped suddenly when she touched her buttocks.
that jerk.
She grew up so big, no one dared to beat her, but today she was beaten by that bastard. At that time, she really wanted to jump up and bite him, but she was frightened by his words. Thinking about it now, Margaret felt very ashamed.
Fight and lose.
If there is any grievance in the heart, it will never forget.
Lying on the bed, tossing and turning for a long time before falling asleep, but in the dream, that nasty man appeared again.
The whole dream is like a continuation of the ball.
The bastard Jon Hardy spanked her ass, and Margaret was so angry that he jumped up and bit him, and that Hardy grabbed her by the hair, and they rolled on the ground together.
The people around were stunned, watching them fight in a daze, but no one came up to help.
The two kept rolling on the ground.
But she was no match for that man at all, and she was crushed under her in the end, and then the man beat her ass hard.
Huh~~!
Margaret woke up with a start.
Only then did I realize that I was just having a dream.
But this dream also made her break out in a cold sweat.
Heart beating non-stop.
Damn Jon Hardy, how could I dream of him and beat myself in my dream, I must take revenge! ! !
Princess Margaret let out a roar under the covers.
…
Margaret wanted revenge, but he had no chance, because Hardy returned to the United States on a private plane the next day.
Not only did he go back, David Rockefeller also returned to the United States together.
January 20, 1949.
Johnson was inaugurated as the new president. As a supporter, Hadi naturally wanted to attend. Hundreds of thousands of people gathered on Capitol Hill today.
Johnson attached great importance to this inauguration because it was his first time. The last time he was president was because the previous president, Roosevelt, died of a sudden illness while in office. He took over the presidency as vice president, and there was no inaugural speech program on Capitol Hill.
So this time Johnson was very excited.
After going through the previous procedures, everyone came to the rostrum, which was full of dignitaries and celebrities, and Hadi sat in a very front position.
First the vice president took the oath.
Johnson's vice president was none other than his former campaign aide, Democratic leader Alben William Buckley.
Then Johnson stood on the stage and solemnly swore to become the 33rd president of the United States. I solemnly swear that I will faithfully perform the duties of the President of the United States and do my best to abide by, maintain and defend the Constitution of the United States...
After taking the oath, Johnson delivered a presidential speech:
Each period in our country's history has faced unique challenges. The challenges we face now are as serious as any in the past, and today marks not only the beginning of a new administration, but the beginning of a new period.
...we will continue to implement the World Economic Recovery Plan. The European Recovery Plan has full confidence in the success of this major undertaking in world recovery.
We will strengthen a freedom-loving nation against the threat of aggression. ….
The presidential inauguration event is still broadcast live by ABC TV station across the United States, while the other two TV stations, CBS and NBC, want to broadcast the inaugural speech and can only rebroadcast the signal of ABC TV station.
In other words, the news broadcast by their two TV stations showed the logo of ABC.
According to expert analysis, the audience who watched the live broadcast of the president's inauguration speech this time may reach more than 60 million people.
This is also a great publicity for ABC TV.
When the camera scanned the crowd of dignitaries behind the rostrum, the camera found his boss Hardy sitting there, and the camera deliberately stayed for two seconds.
This picture naturally attracted the attention of the people of the United States.
Someone said:
This is the boss of the ABC TV station. Last time, he stayed for a few seconds on purpose. This time, he gave the camera a special shot.
President Johnson made two speeches. The last time he was in the White House, and this time he was on Capitol Hill. Jon Hardy sat in the most prominent place. The title 'the man behind the president' is really not for nothing. Hardy security dares to use fighter jets It’s not without reason to fight gangsters, this is confidence.”
I guess that the stocks of companies under the Hardy Group may rise again.
…
The inaugural speech is over.
Hundreds of thousands of people cheered together, followed by salutes and fireworks. The president swam across the long street in his special car and returned to the White House after receiving the cheers from the people.
according to rules,
Today is a day of celebration.
The White House will hold a grand reception, and more people will come this time than the last time Johnson won, and this reception is a national event, which can be reimbursed by national expenses.
Hardy wore a well-knit Western outfit and communicated with celebrities from all walks of life.
Hardy today.
Has truly become a very important figure in the upper class of the United States.
