British civil servant

"Oh, that's really good." Alan Wilson kept nodding, Gao's daughter-in-law stood in front of the door, she looked good without working, then glanced at Pamela Mountbatten, and then coughed lightly, "How old are you, you It's still far from the age of marriage, do you know what I hate about African baboons?"

"Alan!" Pamela Mountbatten expressed dissatisfaction with her husband who couldn't grasp the key points, and Pamela directly came up to hold her mother, "Father is right, the difference between the two of you is only the difference in education methods."

The first thousand 390 chapters and seven collectivism

At the critical moment, the little padded jacket was returned, and the supreme authority couldn't help sighing in his heart. He didn't think it was a big deal at first. In fact, as long as the child likes it, it's fine. Of course, he couldn't make it so clear to the feudal lord Pamela Mountbatten. Can be disapproving in my heart.

"We have a lot of things bigger than family life now." Alan Wilson gave his children a wink, vacated the living room for the two, and began to implement the curve to save the country.

"What's the matter?" Pamela Mountbatten watched the children leave. Of course she knew in her heart that her husband was changing the subject, but the face of the head of the family still had to be given.

"The international situation is changing, and the country's policies are about to be adjusted. Of course, I hope you will seize this opportunity." Alan Wilson's face was full of solemnity.

"What about East Pakistan?" Pamela Mountbatten said again when she saw her husband pouted, "That means returning to the United Nations. Why, are you going to promote the establishment of diplomatic relations?"

"I feel that the United States will not stop them. As for the establishment of diplomatic relations, I am not promoting it, but the national interests dictate that it must be done. Don't underestimate our suspicious allies. There may be someone who moves faster than you Woolen cloth?"

Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows and said, "For example, the Japanese, once the United States lets go, they may move very quickly. As early as before the war, it was Japan's traditional market. We'd better rush to resume diplomatic relations before the Japanese."

This does not conflict with Britain's intervention in Bangladesh, because the formal reform and opening up will have to wait for a few years. It is okay for Britain to adjust Bangladesh to deal with emergencies and adapt to the current situation.First use the window period of a few years to find out the situation of a certain big country, and wait until the day of opening up to make the most of it.

"It is true that some preparations should be made." Pamela Mountbatten nodded, agreeing with her husband, "I believe you must have made a careful assessment before telling me this."

"Of course!" Alan Wilson said decisively, "There are not many countries in the world with 2000 million tons of steel production, and this is the same data in the local area. The cement output is not far behind the local area."

In terms of data comparison, including the two monsters of the United States and the Soviet Union, Japan's data is relatively abnormal in this era, which is a bit unlikely to be a country with the size of Japan.

"There is no doubt that whether we can get ahead of Japan is extremely important to the future of Britain." Alan Wilson followed the temptation and shouted again in front of his wife...

The current situation in the Far East is actually very simple, and it is not very different from the memory in his mind. Excluding Japan, the so-called Four Asian Tigers are South Korea, Swindle Island, Singapore and Xiangjiang.

Now it has become an enhanced version of Singapore, that is, Malaya and Xiangjiang are under the control of the United Kingdom, and Japan, South Korea and Swindle Island are under the control of the United States.

In addition to Japan, which has already developed, Alan Wilson has certainly added difficulties to the development of South Korea and the deceitful island, but South Korea and the deceitful island, which are blessed by the United States and Japan, have gotten rid of the embarrassing situation of not being able to eat in the past two years. The time has passed.

This has to mention the role of Japan. Japan's wild goose strategy was targeted by him through Malaya, but it still has a significant effect in South Korea and Swindle Island.The role of Japan in poverty alleviation in the two places is very large.

The United States played a key role in Japan's postwar economic recovery.The United States ended its military occupation with the signing of the "US-Japan Security Treaty" in [-]. From the following year, Japan resumed its status as a sovereign state.During the period of military occupation, the United States provided Japan with a large amount of relief materials, aid, and loans in the name of the "Occupied Area Relief Fund" and "Occupied Area Economic Recovery Fund".

The Japanese people are most impressed by the relief flour, canned food, cold-proof clothing and daily necessities in the United States.

Japan cannot help feeling grateful to the United States.After the outbreak of the Korean War, the United States sent a large number of orders for special war materials to Japan, and returned all 850 arms factories used as war compensation to Japan. A considerable part of them were large civilian enterprises converted to military production during the war.This move provided a solid foundation for the recovery and development of Japanese industry.

In addition, the United States also provided Japan with advanced equipment and technology, and Japan's industry quickly reached the forefront of Asia.After the end of the Korean War, the United States still vigorously supported Japan. The United States believed that Japan’s strength would help contain Asian socialist countries. Although Japan had the humiliation of subjugation and the hatred of suffering a huge nuclear disaster, the wind of admiration for the United States still lingered in Japan.

The United States opened its doors to Japan, not only allowing a steady stream of Japanese goods to be sold to its own country, but also receiving all kinds of Japanese visiting groups and study groups without vigilance.

The population of Malaya has just reached 2000 million, and the population of Xiangjiang is only 400 million. Not to mention Japan's 3000 million population, South Korea has a population of [-] million.

In the case of the same technology, the population size is the decisive factor. Although there are Southeast Asian Chinese who can help, these Chinese belong to different countries and cannot provide much help for the strategic layout of the United Kingdom.

It is true that there are 6000 million people in Bangladesh, but that place can only be used for emergencies. If it could be developed, it would have been developed long ago, and there is no need to wait until today.

Bangladesh can only provide the UK with a market and labor force that can be used for a short period of time before opening up. It can't count on it to fundamentally compete economically in the Far East.

"Even if the United States no longer sets up obstacles to allow them to return to the United Nations, the United States will not develop economic and trade relations in a short period of time." Alan Wilson pointed Jiang Shan, "Then the problem before the United Kingdom is simple, and it will be faster than Japan. have an advantage.”

The policies of the Nixon period were actually overturned by Reagan. The first batch of businessmen who invested in the early stage of opening up were actually overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia, such as Chia Tai Group.Strictly speaking, Japan belongs to the second batch. As for Europe and the United States, it is a very later thing.

Of course, although Japan is not the first batch of countries to invest, it is not too late, and the speed with which the investigation team is sent to find out can be called the first batch.

Compared with the overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia who are fighting alone, the scale of Japanese investment has come from behind, but this kind of thing will not happen under the nose of Mr. Nakado.

"Darling, think about it, we don't need much effort for the [-] million labor force, as long as we can draw on one-tenth of the strength, we can establish an advantage over the American followers in Asia."

Allen Wilson described confidently, "We have an advantage. The most powerful Chinese group in Southeast Asia was supported by you and me. Because of Xiangjiang, the British pound must have occupied a lot of their foreign exchange reserves. It's our help."

smuggling?Will Britain still use sneaky smuggling by then?The smuggling is done through legitimate channels. How much tax has Xiangjiang lost in these years?

"Will they become our threat in the future?" Pamela Mountbatten thought for a long time before asking the question in her heart.

"Honey, it's not easy to maintain the pound zone now. If we can't make it through now, what's the future? How can there be a future?" Alan Wilson sighed, "Seeing that the hundreds of billions of dollars issued have nowhere to go, who knows that this big flood What will it bring?"

"Okay, okay, I know you are annoying, I will definitely try my best to help you, who made me your wife." Pamela Mountbatten reached out and rubbed her husband's cheek, and the husband and wife should still be one at a critical moment, "Next what to do?"

"A meeting!" Alan Wilson said succinctly. Indira Gandhi's visit to the UK was a matter for the country and had little to do with himself.

And his current job is to collect British overseas investment and set up a foundation called the British Prosperity Fund to manage British foreign investment projects.In the 20 years since [-], the United Kingdom has been the world's number one investor, surpassed only by Japan two years ago.

I don’t know if this is the beginning of Japan’s overseas overseas. Anyway, judging from the situation of Japan in later generations, Japan has been deeply stagnant. As time goes by, it has not eased but has become more serious. It seems that Japan overseas Apparently it didn't work.

The largest sovereign fund in the world in later generations is Norway's sovereign fund. Norway's national attributes are actually similar to resource countries like Australia and Saudi Arabia.Sweden and Finland all have their own commendable enterprises, but Norway's pillar industry is the export of raw materials and aquatic products.

The proposal to establish the British Prosperity Fund and to manage overseas investment in a unified manner, Alan Wilson truthfully told the Prime Minister, in a one-foot-thick submission document.Harold Wilson was nervously preparing for Indira Gandhi's visit and probably didn't have time to watch it.

Discussions on the establishment of the British Prosperity Fund have already begun in Whitehall. A high commissioner from the Cloud Piercing Arrow came to meet. Deputy Secretary-General Burke Trend also paid close attention to this matter, and proposed his own proposal to Alan Wilson. Suggestion, "Divide the fund into two, a Prosperity Fund and a Commonwealth Fund, which can also reflect the importance Whitehall attaches to the Commonwealth countries. Most importantly, spread the size of the funds."

"We can also create more jobs." Alan Wilson immediately admitted his mistake. It was because of his appearance that he made a mistake because he was only in the mountains.

When Indira Gandhi arrived in the UK, two foundations were established in Whitehall to manage foreign investment in a unified manner, and the work of monitoring capital flows was in full swing. The two foundations were placed under the leadership of the Overseas Assets Management Committee and were assigned to Deputy Secretary-General Burke Trend, and Commonwealth Secretary-General John Hunt.

Although Burke Trend once dissatisfied and missed the position of supreme authority, Alan Wilson still believed in him. These two foundations exceeding tens of billions of pounds do not belong to any one person, but belong to the collective of civil servants. Belonging to United Whitehall.

The first thousand 390 eight chapters encourage India

At Hawkson Manor, many high commissioners who have sacrificed for the country and went abroad exchanged cups, exchanged views on how to benefit the society, and expressed respect to each other with the executive deputy ministers of several important local departments.

"Alisa, it is not my wish to let you travel long distances, but is the Malaya colony ready?" Alan Wilson raised his glass and clinked a glass with the old subordinates, emphasizing, "Whether it is war or other, we have to do it." Well, in my opinion, after the British army landed, the main battles were over. At that time, the society in East Pakistan collapsed. Instead, the refugee and relief issues were the most important issues. The problems that can be solved with a piece of sugar, not a bullet , which will also be extremely important to our national image."

"I have prepared [-] tons of rice, [-] tons of sugar, instant noodles and other supplies for post-war preparations." Alyssa said there is no problem, "Just from my personal opinion, it is best not to fight After all, the impact of the war is great. We have also communicated with Yangon. Once the Rakhine region faces the refugee problem, as long as the British army does not land from Myanmar, the Yangon government is willing to appeal to the international community. The British send troops to interfere in East Pakistan. calm the situation."

As for the composition of the troops, it goes without saying that the Malaya garrison is the main force, and the British army in the Middle East is not used if it can be used. The Malaya garrison, whether it is British, Chinese or Malay troops, is not related to interests. In this sense, the law can be enforced impartially.

Seeing her immediate boss nodding, Alisa also asked her worries, "Once there is a confrontation with the Indian army, what will we do then? How can we force the Indian army to leave East Pakistan?"

"As far as the military discipline of the Indian army is concerned, it is not easy to catch their faults? If you use a little energy to catch a group of rapists and expose them, it will be spread all over the world immediately." Alan Wilson is not worried about this problem at all, even if India has It has been independent for so many years, and the popularity in British newspapers has not subsided. India, which can be called the British mainland, is the traffic code of at least some newspapers.

As for the scale of troops, in terms of Malaya's military strength, the size of the [-] landing force is appropriate. As for the Royal Pacific Fleet, the Royal Navy still has its own tasks.

"London has not issued the latest instructions. The Far East Joint Operations Command should not act rashly. There may be a big accident, and the specific situation must be left to the local people to judge." Alan Wilson whispered, the treatment of the direct descendants can be seen, Alisa There is no doubt that it is the Supreme Authority's own civil engineering department, and everyone knows this.

Vivien Leigh is still working overtime on the editing, about the atrocities committed by the Pakistani government army, and asked when the man with the same status as her husband will be released, and the answer was, "General reserve, no move."

Putting it out early will cause fatigue, and we must find that point. Alan Wilson thinks it will be suitable after at least July. Indians will calculate the closing time of the Himalayas. Isn’t the UK not?There is still a British military base in Nepal. The British are no strangers to the local climate than any other country.

Alan Wilson insinuated, and in a nonchalant tone, informed Whitehall of the size of the two funds established, each exceeding 100 billion pounds.

"I can only be tied with one fund. If another foundation is also counted, it may be necessary to add up all the overseas assets of the nobles." Pamela Mountbatten glanced at her husband, "It doesn't count as property. , now most of my friends are satisfied with the current situation and are not ready to sell assets.”

"Look at what you said, it seems that I want you to sell assets to fill holes in the country. Isn't it just asking you to tie up the emirs in the Middle East with food wages, and talk to me if you have anything to do." Alan Wilson came up with a temper He just wanted to stretch his hand from the neckline of the richest woman to the familiar high ground, but was stopped by the eldest daughter's voice from upstairs.

"Father, can't you keep the little crocodiles you raised in Malaya?" With the sound of footsteps, Pamela's figure appeared in front of the couple, "It should be fine for me to raise some?"

"Don't you know that your father drafted the Alien Species Prevention Clause?" Alan Wilson pinched his hands on his waist and said to his daughter solemnly, "However, Chinese alligator is not considered a dangerous alien species. It is no problem to shoot a chicken. The danger will not exceed It’s a pet dog, let’s take it as an example.”

"The native country is more concerned about it. The Caspian tiger I raised in Western Australia is not so seriously controlled locally." Pamela obviously didn't appreciate her father's extrajudicial favor, and expressed her dissatisfaction in a murmur.

Alan Wilson turned his head and looked at Pamela Mountbatten with unkind eyes, "Tigers? I remember that I wanted to raise killer whales last time. I hired Japanese to catch them for several months. I also specially filled one on the coast of Perth. Why don't you take care of the seawall? How do you do it with your mother?"

"Father, it's all for the benefit of society. Explore the harmonious coexistence between man and nature." Pamela imitated the tone of Whitehall officials, "Australia's ecology is very fragile, and the locals are very interested in the idea of ​​rebuilding the ecological chain."

"A group of descendants of exiled criminals insisted on pretending to be the pillars of society with their resources." Alan Wilson pouted, "And rebuild the ecological chain, I don't know how much government funding has been cheated."

But it's no wonder that Australia sat on a mine cart and watched the situation with a smile. It was originally developed after Japan, but in this world, Australian iron ore was discovered early, and Pamela Mountbatten used iron ore as bait to bring British Capital went to Australia, and after Malaya was defined as a production base, Australia was also driven up.

Australia's per capita income, in the current world, is second only to the United States, Britain and Canada, surpasses European countries such as France and Germany, and is twice that of Asia's benchmark Japan and Malaya.

With this capital, he naturally feels good about himself. Maybe now Australians think that apart from Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union, this world belongs to him in Australia.

Indira Gandhi finally arrived in London, the last stop of this trip to Europe. Both Britain and India are building momentum for Indira Gandhi's visit, as if this visit will be a new chapter for the two countries.

"Prime Minister, about the establishment of two foundations and the regulation of British foreign investment." Seeing that Indira Gandhi's special plane had begun to land, Alan Wilson began to chatter in front of the Prime Minister.

"Come out with a draft first." Harold Wilson stared at the special plane intently, and ordered without looking back, "Calaghan just cares about this matter."

"Prime Minister, I understand." Alan Wilson acquiesced that the Prime Minister had read the draft, and now he just waited for the Chancellor to nod.Now that the Prime Minister has read it, the Chancellor has no reason to object, and the supreme authority skips over the first sentence of the Prime Minister and answers the latter sentence.

The major newspapers reported that the Indian Prime Minister asked Harold Wilson for support, which became the mainstream attitude of Indira Gandhi's visit this time.

"India!" Alan Wilson threw the newspaper aside disapprovingly, and asked the Deputy Secretary-General about the operation of the fund. "Investing in India is not a good idea. I need to know about similar ideas."

"Actually, from the perspective of the relationship between the UK and India and that this country is still a Commonwealth country, don't we deliberately avoid India?" Burke Trend didn't understand why Alan Wilson kept avoiding India.

"I was an official in British India before, and I have too much say in this country. Adopting the policy of import substitution will lead to a dead end." Alan Wilson's tone is full of determination, and there is no doubt about it.

Late-developing countries generally choose two development routes, import substitution and export orientation. Import substitution is to control some basic needs of the country in their own hands, and not to be occupied by foreign products.Export orientation is simple. Starting from the lowest handicraft industry, we will go through all the steps of the sweatshop step by step.

Obviously, most countries will choose the option of import substitution, and only a few countries will start from scratch and complete all stages of sweatshops.However, the countries that chose the former all failed, and the countries that chose export orientation succeeded at least a few, although there was only a gap between zero and one percent.

India is not only the former, but also uses history as a mirror to formulate a very harsh foreign investment access system through the history of the Indian industry being destroyed by British industry.Even if you go in, it's not easy to get out.

Investing in India is definitely not a good idea, investing in post-independence Bangladesh is more likely to make a profit than investing in India.

Of course, Alan Wilson is also ok for India. In the dialogue with Indira Gandhi, he gave suggestions, "They are in a critical period of returning to the United Nations. It is unlikely that they will send troops to help Pakistan. Join a war There could be a contrast in attitudes across countries."

Britain would definitely choose India between India and Pakistan, and Harold Wilson informed the other party of the cabinet secretary-general's proposal in a conversation with Indira Gandhi.

However, when Indira Gandhi asked what attitude the United States would take, Harold Wilson expressed reservations, saying that Britain could not help India on issues involving the United States.

Before Indira Gandhi concluded his visit, Indian Chief of Staff Sam Manekshaw issued a "state of emergency" mobilization order: cancel the leave of all personnel in the army and return to work immediately; requisition civilian vehicles for emergency transportation Ammunition and various military supplies; relocation of border residents between India and West Brazil; strengthening urban civil defense measures, etc.

Britain has at least expressed an old-fashioned attitude of not taking a stand. The biggest problem now is the United States. Indira Gandhi, who returned to New Delhi, called Foreign Minister Singh over, "Only the Soviet Union has this power to prevent the United States from using force. supporters, the Soviet Union has the ability to contain them.”

Indira Gandhi's meaning is obvious, let go of the non-alignment first, and the current situation of the Soviet-Indian alliance can ensure that India's military operations will not be interfered.

The first thousand 390 nine chapters of the United States also did it

After visiting around, Indira Gandhi did not gain anything. He knew that European countries, including the United Kingdom, were not enthusiastic about the situation in South Asia.Now we are waiting for a time node, when a certain big country is busy, one sentence will send troops to solve India's long-standing problem of east-west attack.

Foreign Minister Singh went to Moscow again, carrying Indira Gandhi's entrustment to shape a favorable diplomatic environment for India.

In London, Alan Wilson is explaining to the Prime Minister about the operation of the two funds. Facing Harold Wilson’s question of when he will agree, the answer is that when Indira Gandhi visited, the two also discussed this issue specifically. question.

"Alan, I am the Prime Minister of the British Empire." Harold Wilson expounded on this fact. The cooperation between the two was generally harmonious, and he could ignore some innocuous things.

But are two funds with a scale of tens of billions of pounds considered trivial?You must know that the total economic volume of the United Kingdom is just over 1000 billion pounds.

"Numbers do not necessarily represent facts, Prime Minister. Numbers can sometimes deceive people." Hearing that the Prime Minister mentioned that the UK's economic aggregate is just 1000 billion pounds, Alan Wilson explained that the results reflected by different data do not necessarily conform to the facts. This year's economic aggregate does not represent historical accumulation.

What's more, in a 1000 billion economy, can't there be two tens of billions of funds?The total economic volume of Norway in later generations is 3000 billion U.S. dollars, and the funds of the sovereign fund are [-] trillion U.S. dollars.According to the boast of the Japanese population, there is one Japan overseas, and there are four Norwegians overseas.

Although these two foundations are not the entirety of the Overseas Assets Management Committee, they are also understandable. Russia is a one-trillion-dollar economy, and South Korea is also a one-trillion-dollar economy. With the blockade, South Korea will have to eat people, and all economic data will be emptied in an instant.The vast land and abundant resources are really useful!

"I recently checked the issue of local pensions, especially the expenditure of government departments. The current development trend is not optimistic." Alan Wilson linked his behavior to British social expenditure, "Prime Minister, you and I have Clearly, this problem cannot be solved by relying solely on the local market. The pound zone can help us solve this problem, but the pound zone is under the pressure of expanding the scope of dollar circulation at any time, which in turn involves the pressure of pound appreciation, the effect of foreign investment, and population flow All kinds of problems."

"And the above problems require military investment. Without the guarantee of military power, the rate of decline in the pound zone will be faster, so this is a comprehensive problem."

All in all, all in all, whether it is the UK as a country or the perspective of British citizens, we should seek a guarantee. .

As far as Alan Wilson is concerned, the aristocrats are not counted. Now almost all the British aristocrats have industries in Australia. If Harold Wilson expects the previous government to deduct some money from the aristocrats, the aristocracy will really profit. Realize and package local industries.

There are two sides to the matter, Alan Wilson is one side, and Pamela Mountbatten is the other side. The Queen is helpless in this matter, and the Queen also has shares in the Mountbatten industry.

Radwig had been waiting outside the Whitehall, and when he saw Alan Wilson coming out, he stepped forward and said, "Sir, you are coming out."

"Well, it's another day to benefit the society." Alan Wilson got into the car with a smile and asked what's going on today, so that everyone can have fun together.

"Your daughter Pamela's car was scratched, but she was very angry." Radwich said, talking about this incident, very new news, it happened today.

"My daughter isn't doing well, right?" Alan Wilson's face collapsed when he heard that. He can discipline his son and children of the same status as his son, but this daughter is a bit difficult.The main reason is that he doesn't have many daughters, so it's not good to be too strict.

"Pamela is fine, and the president also considers that you are the Secretary-General of Whitehall, so he is unwilling to let the matter escalate." Radwig replied while driving, "The other party did not ask for compensation either."

"Oh." Alan Wilson agreed unhappily. Of course, having such a wife and daughter is something to be happy about. Knowing how to take care of the overall situation, what else can he say?

Not long after the car stopped in front of the house, Alan Wilson was about to get out of the car, "Radwig, find a chance to kill that bastard. I'm just such a daughter, and I should protect it."

"Huh? I see, Secretary-General." Radwich was taken aback for a moment, but immediately agreed. His first reaction was of course surprise, but after careful consideration, it was nothing. It was all an arrangement of fate.

"Then I'll wait for your good news." A cigarette had already appeared at the corner of his mouth, and Alan Wilson waved his hand gently, "Then, see you tomorrow."

After entering the door, I went straight to my daughter's room. After chatting for a while, the little padded jacket who was in a bad mood finally smiled, and Alan Wilson breathed a sigh of relief, "Radwich told me that there was an unexpected incident today. , In fact, no one has ever made a mistake. These are all precious memories in life."

"Father, you definitely don't have this kind of memory. You don't know how to drive at all." Pamela based her happiness on her father's pain. "Your driving skills increase with the reduction of manual transmission."

"I'm thinking about whether to beat your ass to pieces." Alan Wilson jumped up and down. He came to comfort his daughter with good intentions, but there was a father laughing scene.

Not long after Indira Gandhi returned to China, he went to Washington for another visit, which has nothing to do with him, but the Indian Prime Minister’s frequent visits are reminding Alan Wilson that India is about to do something. The India-Pakistan war has just not officially started, and small-scale frictions have been going on for several months.

"In terms of the media, it is my wife who is the best at dealing with all parties, so I can settle all parties." Alan Wilson communicated with Pamela Mountbatten in a private occasion, putting down the majesty of the head of the family.

"I said how can I bear the humiliation of the crotch again this time." Pamela Mountbatten chuckled, "but how can I refuse the request of the head of the family. I don't have the guts."
