British civil servant

It should be emphasized that the United Kingdom is different from the United States and the Soviet Union. The development of British Malaya must have its own path, rather than one-sided imitation of any one of them. Each country has different national conditions. Other countries The experience of the British may not necessarily apply to the development of Malaya.

In the propaganda work of neighboring countries, it is necessary to shape the superiority of British Malaya and use clever methods to expand the economic and cultural influence of British Malaya.

"What do you think, it seems to be very similar..." Alan Wilson looked at the report written by himself, and a stereotyped sense of sight came to his face. He shook his head and threw out the chaotic thoughts in his mind. What is similarity?Since it was written by him, it is original.

In fact, this is not only aimed at the Chinese. British Malaya can be a cultural center for overseas Chinese, and at the same time it can be a cultural center for Malays. The latter can also use some Korean-style means.

As we all know, the cultural center of the Malays is not in the current British Malaya, but in Indonesia. The estrangement in Indonesia can be described as the best of both worlds.

This report was quickly sent to Richard, the head of the Administrative Bureau, and then issued to various agencies.Fortunately, none of them had read the report of the socialist countries, otherwise Ai Zhongtang would immediately have another name, Secretary Ai.

But even if it can be seen, Alan Wilson will not admit that political matters are similar, and to borrow a biological vocabulary to summarize, this is called convergent evolution.

Dien Bien Phu cannons roared, France and Vietnam fought against each other, and napalm bombs fell from the sky.Alan Wilson is leading the Colonial Commissioners to the gala for the establishment of the Hong Kong Film Awards, as well as Malaya local elites and celebrities.

The appearance of Vivien Leigh, Heidi Rama, Ingrid Bergman, and Marilyn Monroe made this evening full of gold. The Asian actors represented by Kaoru Yachikusa and Xia Meng were also eye-catching and became eye-catching. focus.

If it weren't for the presence of the royal princess, it is estimated that the gentlemen must have stepped forward to sign.

"Thanks to the beautiful ladies for everything they have done for Malaya!" Alan Wilson was very sincere, expressing his gratitude to the ladies who have the same important status as his wife.

Chapter 752 All Are Actors

"Then I don't know, how can Mr. Commissioner thank us for our help?" Heidi Lama's eyes flashed, obviously showing that he wanted to take the opportunity to seek thanks.

Even if he is already familiar with it, Alan Wilson still can't bear this kind of gaze. Heidi Lamarr's appearance is really beyond the reach of ordinary people. Greta Garbo's appearance looks very sharp. If we say that ancient Greece Those sculptures are based on real people. Greta Garbo's sharp-edged face is the most in line with that kind of beauty. As the age increases, this sharpness will only increase.

The claim that Greta Garbo has a divine appearance is based on this comparison.Although Heidi Lamarr is not as sharp as the former's appearance, she is more impeccable.

When Heidi Rama spoke, Ingrid Bergman also joined in. The two didn't have to take advantage of Alan Wilson, but they were also happy to see the man in a hurry.

"Dear ladies, I believe you also have a certain understanding of British Malaya. The sunny beaches here, the leisure under the palm trees, and the blue sea water should be considered impressive." Alan Wilson paused when he said this After a while, I saw several women who were very interested, and said in an uncertain tone, "If you want, you can buy a few islands. From now on, the islands you buy will be your private property, but the sovereignty is still in the hands of the United Kingdom. What do you think of this suggestion?"

"I think this suggestion can be discussed!" Ingrid Bergman frowned slightly, and said with a smile, "Is it just for this price..."

"Let's talk about film and television today, and we'll talk about it in a few days." Alan Wilson reminded that now is not the time to talk about this matter, and too many people will easily cause unnecessary disputes.

After all, people in the Malayan colonies think that every inch of land belongs to them. Of course, they only think so. Alan Wilson, the imperial commissioner, of course believes that at least for now, the sovereignty of the British colonies still belongs to the United Kingdom. no doubt.

Both Ingrid and Bergman understood the man's habits, and with a subtle nod of understanding, they ended the subject of the island's sale.

This banquet was not only filled with white faces, but also Chinese, Malay, and Indian elites.The part of the Indians was received by Vivien Leigh. Vivien Leigh used her influence to save the British India from the fire and water. In the eyes of many Indians, she was very appealing.

Allen Weir turned around from the past. Although he knew in his heart that the reputation of Indian rape was due to the hegemony of British public opinion, since he had preconceived ideas, it was better to be careful.

Fortunately, these upper-class Indians are more respectful to the citizens of the colonial suzerain.

"Commissioner Wilson!" Seeing her man approaching, Vivien Leigh's smile increased significantly, her signature elf-like gaze swept across the princess behind the man, and she nodded politely.

"Don't bother Ma'am, I think it's very lively here." Alan Wilson said hello all his life and continued his important work as his eyes swept over the a few Ah Sans.

After all, the proportion of Indians is only single digits. Chinese and Malays have always been the focus of his work. On the surface, he must treat them equally. Even if he focuses on support, he cannot show it.

Even Princess Margaret, watching from the side, felt that her brother-in-law was really tired, like a clown throwing three balls in a circus, cleverly and easily dealing with several different ethnic groups.

After a while, Allen Wilson walked from the Malay group to the Chinese group with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Tian!" Allen Wilson opened his arms and embraced Tian Qianqiu. At the same time, he tilted his head and greeted Su Yang and his wife, and he did not miss one of them.

"Lord Zhongtang, this is my second room." Tian Qianqiu pulled a twenty-eight-year-old woman and introduced it to Allen Wilson.

"It turns out to be the second wife. Congratulations, Mr. Tian." Alan Wilson showed a look that any man could understand. In principle, British Malaya could marry more, and this was not illegal.

As for why it is in principle, because in principle the colonial government advocated monogamy, of course it only stopped at advocating.

It is not against the law to marry more. This is mainly to advocate that most men can have a wife. As for the rich and powerful who want to marry more, they can make an exception.

After all, there are always some privileges in the upper class, and marrying more is considered a privilege that is not very harmful.But it is also necessary to ensure that most men can have their own spouses, otherwise the society will be very unstable. You must know that men with excess energy can do anything.

Fortunately, Malaya is now at least within the scope of Southeast Asia, and it is considered to be ahead of many countries.Once there is a war in the surrounding areas, there will be immigrants coming in to clear up the imbalance between men and women.

"No congratulations, but Su Yang must be very envious of me." Tian Qianqiu is completely different from a few years ago, he has entered the role of a successful person, and he still doesn't forget to tease Su Yang and his wife around him.

"Mary and I have a very good relationship." Su Yang said solemnly, expressing his loyalty to his Newfoundland daughter-in-law who was also present at the scene.

"That's really good news." Alan Wilson hypocritically promised a model of Chinese-English marriage, although he didn't feel that Su Yang was telling the truth.

This kind of thing may not appear on the surface, but in private, who knows, Su Yang wants to raise a few women outside, it is too easy for him in his current position, but he should not let his wife know, so as to maintain the harmony between the husband and wife on the surface.

It is also because of this marriage that Su Yang received the support of the Newfoundland Foundation, otherwise it would not be so easy to stand out.

This time the banquet itself has all kinds of life. It is true that there are a large group of actors with aura, but which of the guests present has poor acting skills?

Except for Alan Wilson, other British officials, regardless of whether there is racial discrimination in their hearts.But on the surface, it will never be said.

Allen Wilson strictly forbade the use of language to discriminate against local ethnic groups in Malaya, no ethnic groups.Take him as an example, he has a Chinese name called Ai Zhongtang, and he also has a peace religious name called Ahmad Pasha, which is used to deal with Malays.

He dare not say that he can remove all verbal insults, but among middle and high-level officials, the situation has greatly improved now.After all, everyone knows that when their immediate superiors hear about this kind of thing, they ask them to add money...

They can't bear to be fined all the time, and the salary is only a few hundred pounds a year without deductions, not to mention that they may be sent to the Andaman Islands to take charge of the maintenance of the naval base.

Looking at it now, British Malaya deserves to be a multicultural center, where the races are harmonious and respect each other.Although the people are actually on guard against each other, so what, as long as there is no fight, there is harmony.

Alan Wilson's previous telegram to General Nawal said that the conflict between the Chinese and the Malays was just false news, and it was used to imply the ugly act of using Cambodian soldiers to intensify the ethnic conflicts in South Vietnam.

Representatives of all ethnic groups expressed harmony. Alan Wilson took his sister-in-law back to the group of actors, and his eyes still stayed on Xia Meng and Yaqian Kusao for a moment.

Because when discussing the topic of men just now, both Su Yang and Tian Qianqiu said that these two actors are very beautiful.

"Did they start to converge and evolve like Xiangjiang rich people so early?" Alan Wilson muttered with a wry smile.

Actors in Xiangjiang are proud to marry into a rich family, which has a unique environment. The fundamental reason is that the ceiling of Xiangjiang is too low. For ordinary people, the rich are already the best destination that can be found in cognition.

Except for a few people such as Jackie Chan, many well-known actors cannot rely on Xiangjiang's market to make a lot of money.

For example, mainland actors are completely different. The mainland market pays too much for top actors. Even if they don’t marry wealthy families, top actors are still very successful people. Xiangjiang actors do not have this environment.

But the big brother does not talk about the second brother, Alan Wilson is the same as the two big compradors, but the target of success is different. Of the few famous movie stars present, which one slipped through the net? Marilyn Monroe.

Princess Margaret doesn't understand Chinese, otherwise she must find a way to drive the two Asian actors away at this time, so as not to confuse her brother-in-law.

In the film and television market, Alan Wilson still has a lot of things to ask. If you want to say that someone who knows about the Xiangjiang film market, Vivien Leigh, who has been to Xiangjiang several times, is one of them.

"The cultural center of Malaya does not include films, which should be reserved for Xiangjiang. Malaya just needs to be a good market. However, I still have some ideas to say, which can make Xiangjiang's films from the side. There is a standard for the genre. The two places should help each other, but I will talk to the Governor of Hong Kong at that time, British Malaya will not introduce films with too strong historical background.”

Alan Wilson taught Vivien Leigh face-to-face. He knew very well that using film and television works to sell private goods is not the patent of a certain country, and these things are common.Xiangjiang people have a very shallow understanding of history. Yongzheng couldn't do without Xuedizi, and Qianlong knew that picking up girls started in Xiangjiang's film and television. This kind of private goods is very embarrassing to him.

Besides, you keep shooting against Qing and Fuming?Is it inappropriate to spread to the colony of Malaya?Alan Wilson couldn't help but make a fuss, and it's not unheard of for him to turn a corner and point at Sang Huai.

"I don't understand!" Vivien Li didn't know, so she didn't understand what her man was thinking.

"It's clearly about the Chinese people's own affairs, but it's about us in the UK in the dark. There's nothing wrong with guarding against the past!" Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows, "Whether the Chinese say they are smart or cunning, they like doing this kind of thing very much." thing."

Chapter 753 Alan Zowski

"It won't help much!" Vivien Leigh is an Englishman, and she really can't understand the twists and turns.

"It's not very true, but it's true when it's annoying." Alan Wilson thought of the book ban policies of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Having had some understanding, he can basically be sure that the vast majority of books banned in the two dynasties Part of it is used to summarize is Xiaohuangwen.

There is no doubt that Xiao Huangwen occupies the vast majority of the list of banned books in the two dynasties. In his previous life, Alan Wilson accidentally got a list of banned books. Light monks and such.

When one looks at these names, one has the desire to read the content. Intellectually, one knows that the banning of books is wrong, but for some purpose it is still necessary to ban them. This kind of entanglement is consistent with Alan Wilson's current thinking.

Prohibiting the introduction is a bit of a fuss, and if it is not prohibited, it is inevitable that these movies will be accused and scolded without knowing it.So this matter is very tangled.

"Why don't I make a movie to bring disaster to the east?" Alan Wilson felt that he could also find some themes, such as Zuo Zongtang's use of troops against the Northwest, so that the Chinese dared to feel the tangled pain.

But think about it or forget it, he has no such obligation, and he still needs to think carefully about the types of movies that are prohibited from being imported.

In the end, Alan Wilson decided to set up the Malayan Broadcasting and Television Directorate to deal with these incidents, fulfill the duties of an incinerator, and even resist cultural aggression.

When I got home and thought about the Hong Kong movies in my mind, Alan Wilson really found a feasible way to raise the threshold.In historical Hong Kong films and dramas, ten actors in the left and right rows dare to claim a hundred thousand troops even if they are not satisfied with the camera. This is because Hong Kong films have to compromise because of the cost.

He figured out a way from this, there are no big scenes in film and television dramas, let alone a historical film.As for the scale of war group performances, it should not be less than 500 people, so that should be fine, with exceptions for other types of movies.After all, Alan Wilson didn't want to strangle the martial arts class to death directly at the source, as a way of life.

He seems to watch Hong Kong's martial arts movies and Japan's unique samurai movies Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Young. If the development of martial arts movies is affected because of his policies, he may feel guilty in his heart.

The problem of scale can only be learned from the memory of the *** operation in the mind. Although many actions of the *** have been used to complain, the existence of this department still has a great effect, which is undeniable.

As the imperial commissioner of Malaya, Alan Wilson felt that it was not too much to borrow the successful experience of other countries to complete his work. After all, it was not the first time he practiced miraculous skills.

Similar work cannot only deal with one country, and of course Indonesia, which is close at hand, must also be included.From a historical perspective, the current Indonesian territory is the core and historical roots of the Malays. In this regard, Indonesia is more worthy of vigilance than a certain big country.

The reality is that there are two main ethnic groups in British Malaya, and Alan Wilson has to deal with two ethnic groups with one trick.Absolutely can't do things against one and let the other go.

While perfecting the countermeasures, Alan Wilson continued to talk about business with the distinguished guests. As I said before, he would sell some small islands with beautiful scenery in return for a few actresses who came to help this time.

"I'm just joking. If you sold the island and London tracked it down, how would you explain it?" Heidi Lamarr shook her head repeatedly when she heard the old story of Alan Wilson. She didn't want this man to be blamed domestically.

"How can I explain it? Councilor Churchill has exchanged such an important strategic military base for fifty shabby warships, and no one cares about him asking for an explanation." Alan Wilson was confident, even after so many years, when he mentioned this matter He was still so angry that he exchanged these priceless treasures for fifty tattered warships.

"Alan, after all, Mr. Churchill was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom at the time. It would be very risky for you to do the same thing." Ingrid Bergman also shook her head. At this time, she was still not moved by the man's generosity.

Although the purchase of the island is not without temptation for her, and being a leisurely island owner is also very exciting, but she is unwilling to let Alan Wilson take the risk of being blamed to operate.

"There are thousands of islands in British Malaya!" Alan Wilson said blandly. There were none at first, but when the time-space Britain helped the Netherlands, it took advantage of Indonesia's independence and robbed many islands. Shore Islands.

The combination of these islands made British Malaya a thousand-island colony. Of course, many of the islands are near the Strait of Malacca. Alan Wilson cannot sell these islands. The status is too important.

But many islands with not so sensitive locations and very nice scenery, he plans to buy a good price this time.

"How about I sell you one of the islands in Pangkor Island? This is a photo." Alan Wilson took out the photo of Pangkor Island. In fact, it was superfluous, because several women had already been there some time ago.

"Pangkor Island!" Vivien Leigh was still deeply impressed by the island, and said, "But I'm still worried, do you have the power to sell the colonial islands?"

"To be honest, there is no, but it can be discussed with Whitehall, so the price is definitely not cheap. But as a man, I will not let you suffer. I can save you money through the accounts and hand it over to the Whitehall Money Administration Office. Find a way." Alan Wilson paused when he said this, "I hope that after I successfully obtained London's understanding, you can use your influence to let this matter be known to the rich in the United States."

"If London thinks that selling some uninhabited islands can increase financial revenue, if there is a precedent, you will sell islands to rich people on a large scale?" Vivien Leigh thought for a while, and confirmed in a guessing tone. Alan Wilson's purpose is It's not like this.

"Yes and no, what is being sold is not the small islands of British Malaya. There are many islands in the hands of the British Empire. Not all of them are in Asia and Africa, but also in America." Alan Wilson nodded and said, "Actually For Americans, privately buying islands is no longer news, and the rich in the United States have already done so a long time ago."

Of course, the price of tour guides in different regions is different. For example, in the Great Lakes region where Canada and the United States meet, many islands are not as expensive as a house in a nearby town.The appeal of such islands to the rich is also limited, after all, the pollution in the Great Lakes region is quite serious.

For the wealthy class in the United States, the islands they hope to buy should be not far from the mainland of the United States, and there are all kinds of sunny beaches, so there are actually not many choices. Islands in the Caribbean Sea are the favorites of the wealthy Americans.

In the later generations, the transaction price is more than tens of millions of dollars. After the purchase, there will be luxury villas, swimming pools, docks and other facilities on the island. The construction of these facilities is a huge expense.

Therefore, the final price is often an astronomical figure for ordinary people. Buying an island is only the beginning of the cost budget, and the construction of facilities such as catering supply and tourist accommodation on the private island is the greater expenditure.

If the island has not yet been developed, it is necessary to build a garbage disposal system, water supply system, and power generation system, as well as building a deep-water dock or a private airport. Buying an island is only the beginning, and maintaining the island is the bulk of the expenditure.

The UK still has a large number of islands in its hands, but not all of them are suitable for sale. For example, if one of the islands in Mauritius is sold, it is estimated that only rich Indians will buy it, and it may be purchased with the support of Nehru.

But there are still many islands with good locations that can be used for sale, such as some British colonies in the Mediterranean Sea, to put it bluntly, they are islands like Cyprus.

Alan Wilson considered that when the United Kingdom later evacuated, almost all these places were let go. It is better to find some interested private sellers and cash out while the current situation is not bad.

Then start with the British Malaya he managed, and set an example for other colonies.After these islands are sold, the sovereignty of course cannot be changed, otherwise anyone can buy them to form an island country, and the whole world will be in chaos.

Selling the island to a private tycoon, anyway, as far as Alan Wilson is concerned, is a thing that kills two birds with one stone.At this time, don't worry about the face of the British Empire. As long as you make money, selling some uninhabited islands is harmless.

Of course, Heidi Lamarr doesn't need to understand these ideas so clearly. She probably knows that Alan Wilson is going to take care of both public and private affairs. They will definitely not suffer.

"One hundred thousand dollars is not a small amount." Heidi Lamarr once used her beauty to raise tens of millions of dollars for a war fundraiser for the United States, but her salary was not high.

"I paid the big head!" Alan Wilson said with an expression that I would not let you suffer, "I definitely can't let the empire suffer, so I will find a way to get the money from the Malayan colony. Be sure to take out one The not-so-low price makes Whitehall feel that selling the island is actually a good way.”

"Then we can't make it difficult for you, you have helped a lot!" Ingrid Bergman hesitated, "I also think Pangkor Island is very beautiful, just like what Vivienne said, we will go out One hundred thousand dollars."

"If you can let many people in the upper class in the United States know that there is a precedent in the UK for selling islands to private individuals. It is much more important than the price of one hundred thousand dollars." Alan Wilson rejected the idea of ​​several people paying the full price and proposed a The alternative plan is to let those who really have purchasing power end.

In essence, the role of Alan Wilson, the commissioner of British Malaya at this time, is infinitely similar to that of Berezovsky and others in the late Soviet Union, who focused on the legacy of the British Empire, except that the Soviet Union had six oligarchs, The British Empire at this time had more than 20 overseas commissioners.

Chapter 754 The source of xenophobia

The difference is that the disintegration of the Soviet Union was not an inevitable event. Although the joint forces of the free world far surpassed the Soviet Union fighting alone, the Soviet Union also had enough ability to protect itself. It was not inevitable that the disintegration would end in such a tragic way.

But Britain’s tens of millions of square kilometers of colonies are almost bound to be lost. Even Alan Wilson doesn’t expect the British Empire to return to its peak. Follower, that's all.

Most of the colonies now have a price in his eyes, and he doesn't feel bad at all if they sell them to private rich people.

The situation of Heidi Rama and Ingrid Bergman is not like the stars of Xiangjiang, who are trapped in a small market and are not much better than ordinary people, but even in the United States, which has the largest film market, stars and top rich people cannot be compared .

But they are well-known, but they don't have such an easy way to cash in later generations. Alan Wilson wants to help a few people. If they can help the United Kingdom and sell some island performances, there will be benefits.

"In this world, so far, the order is still established by Britain and France. I know very well that the United States wants to accept the order established by Britain and France. Washington supports France to continue the Vietnam War, and it actually has this purpose."

Ingrid Bergman is not an official, and she doesn't know much about politics, but she heard Alan Wilson mention that most of France's military expenditure is supported by American military aid, and asked in puzzlement, "How can this be said? rise?"

"Think about the difference between the national power of France and the national power of the United States? Even if France only pays a quarter of the military expenditure, the national power of the United States is more than four times that of France. It seems fair, and no one can pick out the fault. But the Vietnam War lasted for one day, and the consumption of France was not the same."

If the United States is equal to four Frances, the United States bears three-quarters of the military expenditure, which can only be said to be the same as that of France.But the national strength of the United States is more than four times that of France?A quarter of the military expenditure dragged Paris into misery, and the remaining three quarters had no effect on the United States at all.
