British civil servant

As for the coup in Chile, if the news had not been leaked by an authoritative person who did not want to disclose his name, Allende would have died.

At the Socialist International Conference two years ago, he said that he only wanted to lead Chile to develop the economy, and that he would never destroy the promise of the electoral system.

"It's just the leader of an opposition party. With the current situation in the Soviet Union, Mrs. Thatcher's remarks are just her personal remarks." Alan Wilson smiled and comforted, "When did she arrive at No. [-] Downing Street? When the word is fulfilled."

With the outbreak of the oil crisis, the Soviet Union’s global offensive has made a lot of progress. Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Indonesia, which were originally French colonies, have almost divided the world with the free world in Southeast Asia, not counting Myanmar, Thailand, the Philippines and other countries. Of course, these armed guerrillas also have part of the credit of a certain big country.

Now the United States will not say anything. When the Soviet Union is over one day, the city on the hill will definitely teach people how to behave.

These countries are also divided into two parts, one is the country that directly uses the Soviet system, and the other is the ruling party or leader showing favor to the Soviet Union.If you want to calculate the latter, Myanmar is not a very reliable country in a certain sense. Alan Wilson remembers that Myanmar was called the Socialist Republic of the Union of Myanmar for a while, and it was already ready to jump ship if something bad happened.

If it weren't for the India-Pakistan war in this world, the United Kingdom played a hand in landing in Bangladesh, maybe the name of Myanmar would have been changed by now.

In fact, the most obvious country in the state of Myanmar is India. Although India has an electoral system, no one can deny that it is an ally of the Soviet Union.Even Liberia, a country founded by black American immigrants, has been showing favor to the Soviet Union frequently in the past two years.

Ethiopia, Somalia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Congo-Brazzaville, Mozambique, Angola, and Togo are all countries whose systems have copied the Soviet Union. Tanganyika, Liberia, and Northern Sudan are countries whose leaders or ruling alliances maintain friendly relations with the Soviet Union.

It used to be said that half of Africa belonged to France, and now half of Africa is pro-Soviet countries. Alan Wilson also made a little contribution here. Congo and Dinosaurs, a staunch ally of the United States in history, became a close ally of the Soviet Union. The credit of this supreme authority, in fact, how could his credit be only these, Hokkaido, Indonesia.

In the past two years, the United States has been very supportive of the British African strategy. Except for the Kingdom of Egypt, it starts from the Red Sea and goes straight down to South Africa. Except for British Kenya, the entire east coast of Africa has been completely occupied by supporters of hostile camps in a broad sense. , but some are pro-Soviet, and some have good relations with China and the Soviet Union.

In practical considerations, if the United States does not support the United Kingdom, it will be considered that the Kingdom of Uganda and British Kenya have also undergone regime change. The African strategy of the British Empire from Cairo to Cape Town will be realized by the Soviet Union. The United States began to support South Africa through South Africa. The whites in Southern Rhodesia are armed, but as Angola in the west and Mozambique in the east become independent one after another, and they only became independent with the support of the Soviet Union, how long can Southern Rhodesia last?

Alan Wilson is very pessimistic anyway. The Labor Party government has already distanced itself from Southern Rhodesia. If the white ethnic group does not agree to transfer power to the main blacks, there is only one suggestion, divide and rule according to the proportion of the population, which also depends on the blacks. Not agree.

Although the free world has been tortured enough by this oil crisis, everyone is equal, and even the United States has swallowed most of the consequences of excessive currency issuance. The status of the United States has declined, and the economic gap between other countries and the United States has narrowed. The United States, Japan and Western Europe are three pillars competing with each other.

After entering the stage of stagflation, with the deepening of contradictions, the degree of stagflation in the economies of various countries is different, and new changes have taken place in the unbalanced development.

The stagflation in the United States was earlier than that of European countries and Japan. Isn’t the over-issued currency the United States spending hundreds of billions of dollars in South Vietnam, but not all industries have been affected by the economic crisis.

Chase Manhattan, Citigroup, Han Wah Industrial, Barclays, Lloyds, HSBC, Sarawak, Midland and other banks, without exception, made a lot of money in this economic storm. London and New York These two financial centers have grown against the trend and become the biggest winners of this oil crisis.

After get off work, Radwig was already waiting in his Gintama. After Alan Wilson got in the car, "Secretary General, where are you going? The leader of the Irish Republican Army wants to meet with you."

"No problem, Donaldson, right? Thank you for his contribution to the British Empire." Alan Wilson nodded, "Although sometimes we have to pay a certain price."

"It must have added a lot of trouble to the Secretary-General." Radwich expressed his apology. "We did not expect that Councilor Churchill would be listed as a target."

"The representative of British imperialism is not incomprehensible." Alan Wilson shook his head slightly and said, "In order to completely control the Irish Republican Army, no matter how big the price is, it is worth it."

There is more than one British undercover in the Irish Republican Army. To be honest, he just didn't have a child with an Irish woman, but if he had any children, he would be sent to the Irish Republican Army as an undercover agent.

Donaldson joined the Irish Republican Army in his teens and participated in a series of violent terrorist attacks.In 21, at the age of [-], Donaldson was sentenced to four years in prison, where he forged a close friendship with future Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams.After serving his sentence, Donaldson became one of Adams' most trusted assistants.

There was more than one undercover agent like Donaldson, some were sent by the UK, and some were recruited by Irishmen. In order to get these hard-working people who are devoted to the UK to be promoted quickly, some sacrifices are unavoidable.

In fact, Alan Wilson had already spared Churchill's descendants, but after thinking about it, he still felt that it would be better for the Churchill family to contribute light and heat to the British Empire.

Alan Wilson was willing to come forward to set up an undercover agent, also to express his importance to the other party, and from the perspective of encouragement, he turned the Irish Republican Army into a reliable force.

Of course, some activity funds are indispensable. Alan Wilson has invented a lot of things and received a lot of patent fees. As a scholar who has written a lot of books, a series of conspiracy theories such as the Soviet sleep experiment have been quite popular in recent years. , especially in the North American market, there is no need for private investment, and there is no need to worry about Pamela Mountbatten asking for money, you can get it done with your own money.

What happened to paying for it yourself?There are still such things as patriots in this world. A controllable IRA is not more important than the lives of a few politicians?

"According to Marx's class theory, the British people are not the enemy of the Irish people. All imperialist actions are the responsibility of a small group of politicians. Military operations cannot target civilians." After talking for a while, Alan Wilson faced the assassination of Churchill The culprit of the congressman encouraged, "I don't know if the respected Mr. Donaldson thinks so?"

"Secretary-General, you are so right." Donaldson held the dollar to express his admiration, "The British people are by no means the enemy of the Irish people. Sir's understanding is shocking."

"Of course, things are universally connected." Alan Wilson encouraged with a smile, "Radwig will arrange for your assistant, and this is also to ensure your safety. It is by no means surveillance. In fact, it is not Need to monitor you, there are not no spies at your level, on the contrary, there are quite a few. There is no need to do anything extra."

Later, Donaldson left first, and after half an hour, Alan Wilson left the meeting place. In a certain sense, he was on the front line as the cabinet secretary. He needed comfort, especially Hepburn's.

The first thousand and 480 chapters and three new systems

Hepburn opened the door, and brought a pair of slippers with the other hand, and put them on for the man in front of him, "Didn't you say you're busy recently? What meeting materials are you preparing?"

"No matter how busy I am, I will come to see you." Alan Wilson changed his appearance of supreme authority, and acted like a big licking dog, licking directly in front of Qiuhua, "That kind of thing, it's not as important as being with you."

"I know what to say." Hepburn tried her best to control her expression, so as not to give this man any sweetness with a smile, "I really don't know how much ecstasy soup you poured on me at that time, but you managed to keep it for the rest of my life."

"Actually, it's not difficult. If there is a person like me who pays even [-]% attention to you, I will be the one who thinks about it."

Alan Wilson laughed straight, "God is so partial to me. If it wasn't for benefiting the society, I would even want to apply to be a nuclear test subject."

"The more you say it, the more outrageous it is." Hepburn shook her head and blamed her face, then jumped lightly and was firmly held in the arms of the man who entered the door, and the two entered Hepburn's boudoir.

Hepburn could tell that the man was troubled, and since Alan Wilson came in, he was extremely gentle, hoping to resolve his depression, "Is it because the work in Whitehall is difficult."

"The difficulty is not in London, but in Washington. In fact, I have never understood the speechless tolerance of Americans towards Japan. They are not a continental country, so can't they be more realistic like a maritime country?" Ai Ren Wilson began to chatter, very dissatisfied with this country formed by British immigrants.

A trade war can drag on for two years, during which the auto industry was also exempted, and only steel and electrical appliances were curbed. This is all because the United Kingdom tried its best to persuade the United States to start earlier.

Otherwise, the United States still regards Japan as its own father. From the import of Japanese textiles into the US market in the 50s, it was not until [-] that Japan was forced to compromise.It has been more than ten years since we saw one textile alone. I really don’t know what the decision makers in Washington are thinking?

As early as two years ago, when the oil crisis broke out, it was clearly agreed to take the opportunity to cut off Japan's future development. After two years passed, a strong consensus was obtained in the two fields of electrical appliances and steel, and it was ready to start from a position of strength Talk to Japan.

However, compared to the 20-year textile see-saw, it seems that Alan Wilson should also be satisfied with this.

But what he wants to kill most are Japanese chips and cars, which are areas that Britain is focusing on developing. The United States has let Japan go, which makes him think more, the United States still wants to use Japan to contain Britain.

In the shipbuilding industry, the United States has never done anything to Japan, or even mentioned it, because the United States has no shipbuilding industry at all, and the tonnage launched by the civilian shipbuilding industry is not as large as the tonnage of warships launched by the United States.

The Japanese shipbuilding industry will only threaten Britain, which is also proud of the shipbuilding industry, so the United States has always acquiesced in Japan's competition with the United Kingdom. Anyway, the United States does not have this industry, so it doesn't care at all.

Especially for automobiles, Alan Wilson especially wants to kill the Japanese automobile industry. The value of automobiles is far from comparable to other industries. From another perspective, this is a mobile real estate industry. Items, these two things are juxtaposed for many people.

If the auto industry can support Germany and Japan, you know how outrageous this industry is. Unfortunately, he has been communicating with Washington, but the United States still removes cars from areas that should be contained.Now he doesn't understand very much. Could it be that the United States is the defeated country in the Pacific War?

Hepburn made a cup of black tea and listened patiently to the man's complaints. Although it was childish sometimes, Hepburn was very satisfied with being an official and still coming to her to sulk.

"Although I don't think it's good to contain other countries, I still hope you can succeed. It's actually good to see more progress." Hepburn whispered softly, comforting the head of Whitehall.

"The truth is this." Alan Wilson sighed, "Many traditional industries are no longer enough to support the development of the country at this time. There are only a few emerging industries and so many competitors. When it comes to emerging industries, The chip I am most optimistic about, Japan is also a strong competitor.”

In the final analysis, the United States still believes that it is sufficient to control Japan, and this cannot be said to be wrong. Later generations of the United States still think that they have successful experience in dealing with Japan, and they can also control the other one.

He just didn't expect that, with his own reminder, Washington still couldn't break through the ideological stamp of the country that he had set a benchmark for the world, and he was unwilling to ruthlessly abolish Japan.It is in some industries that are already not very profitable, so that Japan can retreat in spite of difficulties.

If it had been replaced by the United Kingdom, and had not successfully entered the protective shell of the European Community, it would have been targeted by the United States long ago.

After receiving comfort from Hepburn, Alan Wilson adjusted his mood and went to No. [-] Downing Street to report on the next day. Hepburn was right. Britain was not without gains. The investigation of steel has been launched several years earlier than in history.

The most critical battlefield is the international financial conference after the Bretton Woods system. This time it will be held soon. In the past two years, the United Kingdom has been wooing Germany and France to stand on its side, forming a separate war against the yen. Alliance, this alliance cannot be said to be strong, because it is only for the yen, and they are also competitors with each other.

For this reason, Whitehall has prepared for a long time, and there are too many reports involving the macro and micro. Anyway, as the prime minister, Harold Wilson absolutely cannot understand it.

Harold Wilson took over the report from Whitehall, and then he looked tired, "The decline of a large number of traditional industrial sectors, production stagnation, and mass unemployment are a structural crisis caused by an imbalance in the industrial structure; Inflation and credit inflation are also a structural crisis, which are caused by the imbalance between the money supply and the actual demand for commodity circulation, and the imbalance between the scale of credit and the scale of social reproduction.

"So what is Whitehall's suggestion?" Harold Wilson put down the report and asked. Seeing this kind of report like a bible, it is better to ask directly.

"To be honest, coal and steel can no longer support the current added value. We try our best to improve efficiency, but we still have to face the fact that these two industries will gradually become negative assets and become a burden on the British economy. We should try Reduce the scale. Or make industrial adjustments to replace some industries that use coal." Alan Wilson organized the wording, because the Prime Minister would definitely not want to hear these words.

At this point in time, can Britain engage in the textile industry as it did in the nineteenth century?Obviously not, how much is a shirt?Not French.Coal and steel also fall into this category, and the added value is already a negative asset compared to the cost of expenditure.

It was the oil crisis in the past two years, and the United Kingdom relied on North Sea oil and the influence of the Middle East to allow Harold Wilson to be re-elected.

This is not how fast the UK is running. The development of the UK is not as good as before, but other European countries are in decline. Compared with the two, the performance of the UK is very impressive.

"Alan, this involves the livelihood of many citizens." Harold Wilson wondered, he understood what Alan Wilson meant, but he had just been re-elected.While the new leader of the Conservative Party, Mrs Thatcher, did say she wanted to be more competitive, he was Labour's prime minister and "Whitehall has always been neutral" when it comes to this issue.

"Of course, Prime Minister, Whitehall will strictly observe neutrality." Alan Wilson sighed inwardly, and made a solemn guarantee. It seems that coal and steel can only look forward to the wisdom of future generations.

Since nationalized coal and steel cannot be discussed, there is another problem left. If there is still a [-]% possibility of not working hard for it before, now the goal of the United Kingdom must be achieved.It is the Jamaica meeting that will be held soon. After the oil crisis, countries have just recovered and have basically achieved stable growth. This is the most suitable time, especially the United Kingdom has escaped the oil crisis to a certain extent. This meeting is held at the right time .

Harold Wilson knew that the head of civil servants would not say this in vain, so he stopped playing hide and seek, "Just tell me, do you want to participate in this meeting?"

Alan Wilson nodded, and the Prime Minister nodded after a moment of pondering, "But I hope you can promise me one thing when the time comes."

"What's the matter?" Alan Wilson frowned slightly, feeling that the matter was not so simple, otherwise what could not be said directly?

"You can't say it now. But you should agree to it first." Harold Wilson pretended to be mysterious, and then nodded while watching the other party, "As the head of civil servants, you should be eligible to participate in this meeting, and Callaghan, as the Chancellor of the Exchequer, should also go together."

"We will definitely get the benefits that the UK deserves." Alan Wilson is full of confidence. Whether the future international financial order can have a place for the UK depends on this meeting.

Stagflation is caused by the imbalance between the money supply and the actual demand for commodity circulation, and the imbalance between the scale of credit and the scale of social reproduction.The aggravation of unbalanced development in the world economy has led to the disintegration of the international monetary system.

The establishment of a new international monetary system is imminent, and it is no longer possible to continue to deal with the old system. The Bretton Woods system should also have a formal international conference to draw a successful conclusion.

The meeting place was chosen in Jamaica, which is the country where children never know who their father is after decades. Jamaica is also a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, and London also recognizes this place.

London is still shrouded in cold air. A group of people have already boarded a special plane and headed for the warm beach of Jamaica. The participating politicians almost set off to fight for their country's role in the international currency system in the next few decades.

The first thousand and 480 chapters have nothing to talk about

Jamaica became independent in [-], and the capital, Kingston, is ready to welcome distinguished guests from all over the world. Of course, these countries represent the strongest countries in the world. Their coming to Jamaica has nothing to do with the existence of Jamaica itself, but to formulate An international monetary system to replace the Bretton Woods system.

Soon after landing, Prime Minister Harold Wilson and Chancellor of the Exchequer Callaghan were warmly received by US President Rockefeller after Nixon and Secretary of State Kissinger.

"Honorable Prime Minister and Chancellor of the Exchequer, this time we are all committed to establishing a fairer currency system and striving to satisfy all countries." Rockefeller expressed his friendship just after meeting him. After Nixon stepped down because of the Watergate incident, he became the successor president. It coincided with the outbreak of the oil crisis and was criticized by the Democratic Party.

If nothing else, according to the current situation, Rockefeller should have no chance of being re-elected. Regardless of whether he is leaning towards the Republican Party or the Democratic Party, the polls believe that the Republican Party is doomed.

Of course, it would be a lie to say that Rockefeller got nothing. Didn’t Rockefeller’s oil system make money?

Didn't the Anglo-American banking consortium, including Citibank, benefit enormously from the oil crisis?

Alan Wilson looked at the leaders of the United Kingdom and the United States expressionlessly, showing the special relationship between Britain and the United States, and couldn't help but feel nauseous. A new currency system must be established, but it may be more fair.

Once the U.S. dollar is not linked to gold, it will naturally be able to print unlimited money without restraint, and the United States is not like a runaway wild horse starting a money printing machine.As long as the United States is in trouble, it will open India. Of course, in theory, all countries can do this, it depends on whether others approve it.

The U.S. wants to get rid of the Bretton Woods system, which is precisely the embodiment of the hegemony of the dollar. The Bretton Woods system is still constrained by the United States, but this time it will not be so easily constrained.

The United States can issue U.S. dollars at will and implement a floating exchange rate system. The U.S. dollar is no longer a U.S. dollar, but a U.S. dollar and a credit currency.

After both parties sat down, Kissinger directly expressed the sincerity of the United States, "In fact, London will become the largest trading market for gold in the future. New York will give up this crown to London, and gold will naturally be sold in pounds." Pricing, gold is naturally currency.”

"Mr. Secretary of State, after the demonetization of gold, what is the use of sterling to price gold? Or is it that Britain continues to maintain the gold standard? It is not impossible. In recent years, London has traded grain, and its gold reserves have reached [-] tons. Up to eight thousand tons?"

Alan Wilson smiled and asked, "Actually, the French also recognize the value of gold and have been talking to London. They want to create a new currency for circulation within Europe. What do you think of this proposal?"

"Sir can really joke." Kissinger replied with some embarrassment, "Britain's perspective can be detached from the outside world, rather than condescending and the French adopting a package of currency plans."

"That's the reason." Callahan nodded, and then changed the topic, "But it's nothing as a record, it mainly depends on what conditions the French can put forward. For example, if the new currency is still gold monetization, the European gold is stored in the London, the two sides maintain a fixed exchange rate, don't you think?"

Once Callahan's proposal is successful, Europe and the dollar basically have nothing to do with it. There is no doubt that this is poaching the corner of the dollar.

The new currency can also be called the euro. The euro is anchored by the British pound. Then Europe and the United States will become two economies. The control of the United States over Europe will be cut off in the economic field. Military means to control Europe.

"The rarity of gold makes it impractical to peg it to currency. If London does this, it will only consume all the gold in its hands. It's like France in the time of Charles de Gaulle." Rockefeller wiped his glasses, calmly He said, "And this will only make the Soviet Union take advantage. The advantage of a sovereign currency lies in the right to speak. We don't recognize the value of the ruble, so it has no value at all."

"The main problem is who has the right to speak." Ever since Harold Wilson was troubled by the remarks of Soviet spies, when he heard someone mentioning the Soviet Union in person, he always felt that the other party was connoting him. Although it is not good to be so suspicious, But he's used to it.

His prime minister is famous for his goblin remarks in Zurich. If he comes to a meeting and loses the value of the pound, it will simply affect his posthumous reputation, not to mention that the UK is not without cards. , It is completely possible to deal with the United States.

In fact, do Americans still have to guess? It was the British position stated by Keynes, the British representative at the Breton Conference, which bound commodities.After 30 years, it is the United States that proposes this.

Speaking of this, there is no need to hide anything. Rockefeller hopes that Britain can work with the United States to promote this sovereign currency system based on credit.Supporting the US dollar as the de facto international currency, in return, London, England, will become the financial center of Europe, on a par with New York, the United States.

"The U.S. dollar should be bound to commodities to stabilize its value, especially oil, which is also recognized by Saudi Arabia." Kissinger said that the United States already has the support of Saudi Arabia, and the United States itself is the world's largest industrial country, with energy and production capacity , this is a matter of course.

"I don't agree with the Secretary of State's opinion. If it is just a comparison of production capacity, the United States seems to lag behind the Soviet Union in most statistics." Alan Wilson took out the Soviet Union's national economic statistics in [-] , Of course, this is not important, what he said next is more important, "In terms of production capacity, the member states of the European Community together are higher than the United States, am I right?"

Allen Wilson's words are fully supported by data. Steel, coal, automobiles, textiles, machinery manufacturing, etc., Europe is not weak, and the weakness lies in the energy field.But if Britain is on the side of Europe, Europe is not weak in this field.

"The United States is protecting Europe. I think London understands this best." Kissinger said calmly, "I think most Europeans also agree with this."

"Except for France!" Although Alan Wilson nodded, he definitely didn't mean that. At the critical moment, he once again pulled out suspicious allies as guns.

In terms of comparative steel production capacity alone, Britain, France and Germany, not counting British Malaya, have a production capacity of 9000 to [-] million tons, which is within a hair's breadth of that of the United States.

At present, there are three countries with steel production capacity exceeding 500 million tons, the United States, Japan and the Soviet Union, but there are not only Britain, France and Germany in Europe, Luxembourg still has [-] million tons, not counting Italy, whose industrial data is similar to that of the United Kingdom, and there are always Spain against Italy...

In fact, in terms of production capacity, the UK is behind Germany and France in Europe. The reason why it is better than these two countries economically is that the British pound is far stronger than the franc and the mark. At this time, Malaya is not included. effect.

In another venue, the representatives of the United Kingdom and the United States had a fierce confrontation, expressing their views on the international monetary system, "The United Kingdom must have 20.00% of the SDR, and Britain, France and Germany must occupy 50.00% of the SDR. In fact The French require 50.00% five. Because many countries have just become independent and lack financial knowledge, it is not recommended to change the local currency system. The existence of the pound zone and the franc zone cannot be changed in a short time.”

"This is impossible. The powers of developing countries, especially oil-exporting countries, must be increased accordingly. If the pound zone and the franc zone still adopt barriers to prohibit the free circulation of currencies, the current share is simply not enough, and Japan's industrial scale will not give it to Japan at all." Equity is very inappropriate."

"What's inappropriate, Japan needs the protection of other countries." Alan Wilson walked into the formal negotiation venue, "In this way, since rights and obligations must be linked, I suggest that Japan increase its military expenditure to [-]% , to establish its own land, sea and air system, so that it can play a greater role in defending the free world. Only in this way, the corresponding distribution will take Japan into consideration."

The representative of the United States frowned slightly and said, "It turned out to be Sir Allen, but the United Kingdom supports Germany in obtaining the corresponding power, and Japan is excluded alone?"

"Germany is a European country, Japan is not. They have black hair and black eyes, and we are not a civilization."

Alan Wilson slowly explained Britain's position, which was a bit racist, but it was true, "If France and Germany knew that Britain had come one day earlier, it was negotiating with the United States, and they would spread the word that Britain could no longer represent Europe. "

"The pound is freely convertible under the laws of the Commonwealth of Nations." Alan Wilson walked beside the British representative. The representative gave up his seat directly, and Alan Wilson sat down and said.

"It turned out to be the husband of an oil tycoon." William Edward Simon also came in. As the US Treasury Secretary, he visited Arab countries after the oil crisis broke out, hoping to put the petrodollar into operation, but the biggest obstacle was the major British banks. Searching for the source finally found a series of British banking groups including the Sarawak Development Bank.

"The oil crisis does not seem to be a bad thing for the United Kingdom. They also took the opportunity to use the oil surge as an excuse at the Commonwealth meeting to force countries to come up with a resolution to recognize that their currencies and the British pound are freely convertible."

"This? Isn't it the same as the purpose of the current United States?" Alan Wilson made an embarrassed expression, but it didn't mean that at all. "It's just sharing the risk. The economy is fragile and deserves careful maintenance by all member states."
