British Civil Servant

Vol 2 Chapter 1110: Dissatisfaction with the Governor

"We don't come forward directly, I just see that the people from the He family are very suitable to stand in front of the stage." Alan Wilson said to his wife, "In the final analysis, whether it is Hong Kong or Macau managed by Portugal, it is not our place. , will be lost sooner or later, and it will not do us any good to rush to the front of the stage."

"If you are optimistic about the son of that congressman, then we will support him." Pamela Mountbatten agreed.

She was never prepared to make much money in a casino. The scale of the Commonwealth lottery system in Newfoundland is many times larger than this one, and Ellen Wilson also said that the role of casinos is to provide a place for the rich and powerful in Southeast Asia. A place where you can communicate face-to-face is the most important thing.

"Next, I will integrate overseas assets in Asia. Unlike raw materials in Africa, energy in the Middle East, industries and finance here are more important." Alan Wilson originally came to integrate the British assets here and include them in overseas asset management. in the name of the committee. .

The situation in Malaya is better, he really supported some compradors before. What is the proportion of British capital in Xiangjiang? To say that it is all exaggerated, that is, more than 80%, with the four major family groups as the core.

In fact, whether it is British capital or local capital, Alan Wilson can be regarded as British capital and integrated into the Overseas Assets Management Committee for jurisdiction.

It doesn't matter who the owner is, it mainly depends on class feelings. When the industries of people like Su Yang enter the Overseas Assets Management Committee, they will be treated as British capital.

At present, the United States is also a veritable world factory. Whether it is black household appliances or white goods, the United States is the largest producer. Japan has not yet climbed to the position where household appliances go overseas.

Alan Wilson is now thinking about what the 3.2 million people in Hong Kong can do. In Hong Kong and Malaya, there are about 20 million people who can use it.

Malaya has no spare labor to do home appliance production, so let Xiangjiang carry out the production in this area.

All kinds of arrangements take Japan as an economic imaginary enemy, and set up a series of blocking cables to make Japan's ten-year doubling plan a little more difficult, which will not necessarily make Japan's plan fail.

Because in the current US economy, it is not a burden to feed an economy that is only one-tenth of its own size.

Just as Britain cannot afford to feed the Malayan colony, under this kind of difficulty, as long as the United States opens its market, it is really not difficult for Japan to carry out internal adjustment.

Alyssa came with the documents Alan Wilson asked for, and greeted her old boss whom she hadn't seen for a long time, "Dear Sir, I thought you wouldn't be coming back."

"How could it be. Alyssa, no matter how busy I am, I will never forget where I fought." Alan Wilson teased, his eyes stabbing a knife on Alyssa's buttocks. Why don't I come to see you right away?"

"It sounds nice, but I don't dare to make trouble in front of my wife." Alyssa rolled her eyes and said, "I have settled here, and my husband likes it very much. Even living in a colony, I always feel uneasy. ."

"Think of the Royal Pacific Fleet, Perth's Vulcan bombers, and East Malaysia's nuclear warheads will be stable." Alan Wilson couldn't help but smile, still not stable, naturally there are countries that subvert Malaya, but certainly not only Malaysia Come to Indonesia, where one-tenth of the income in Asia.

The difference is tenfold, which cannot be explained by statistical differences. As long as you have eyes, you can see the difference between the two places. After independence, Indonesia is far worse than Malaya, which is still a colonial state.

"But then, will private companies allow you to integrate?" Alyssa sat down and asked with a plain hand dragging her chin.

"Of course, not all local enterprises are nationalized, and they accept the guidance of various committees. The United Kingdom is not the United States." Alan Wilson laughed, including the four family groups of Swire Group and Jardine Group, who were included in the Integration is not to nationalize them, but to better help them in times of crisis.

Under the guidance of Britain, he fought hand-to-hand with Japan, who was eager to go to sea in the Far East. If you see a threat, you must find it early and solve it early. You can't wait for Japan to become bigger and try to contain it. Then it will be too late.

Alan Wilson also thinks about the United States. If Japan really expands, the United States will not be able to deal with it. So it's better not to be so strong. This is all for the sake of the special relationship between the UK and the US.

"I really don't understand that Japan is worth your effort to come here in person."

Alan Wilson formulates a strategy for Southeast Asia centered on British-owned companies in Malaya. It needs an executor to watch and implement it. Alyssa is a suitable candidate. The key is reliability.

Naturally, this strategy is aimed at Japan, and it can't be hidden from Alyssa, but she doesn't understand how a Far Eastern country is so close to an enemy? Have Alan Wilson come over specifically?

"Japan's population is almost twice that of the UK. Do you understand that the national strength is not based on the total number of people?"

Alan Wilson explained, "If Japan can develop to half of the income of British citizens in the future, then in terms of total, Japan is already the same economy as the United Kingdom. The funds provided by the United Kingdom and the funds provided by Japan, in The national perspective is the same, there is no one who is worse than the other.”

In later generations, India is poor enough, and it is also rampant in South Asia by virtue of its large size. The total amount is large enough, and the burst of power is enough, which cannot be faked.

The United Kingdom can only rely on its previous technological accumulation to devolve some industries to Malaya to deal with Japanese companies going overseas. Anyway, Alan Wilson couldn't think of any other way.

It depends on how difficult Japan is to deal with. It is definitely not difficult to confront, otherwise Alan Wilson will surrender.

Some industries are so exhausted that Japan cannot develop, such as civilian airliners. The United Kingdom has this accumulation, but Japan does not. Later, Japan wanted to develop large aircraft at its peak, but it was useless.

The technical content of aircraft manufacturing is much higher than that of automobiles, and the capital investment required is also another level. Japan finally threw tens of billions of dollars, and did not throw a splash on the big plane.

But Japan has done one thing in place. It has clearly failed. As long as I don't say failure, it is not a failure.

No. 10 Downing Street, Norman Brooke was invited, and Prime Minister Aiden had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw the head of the civil service, he spoke directly, "Bai Liji sent a telegram to express his dissatisfaction with Allen, thinking that the Overseas Assets Management Committee There is no reason to consolidate British companies in Heung Kong."

"It's this!" Norman Brooke replied with a sigh of relief after hearing this, "The Hong Kong Governor's dissatisfaction is also normal, but Allen has his own reasons. This time the United Kingdom compromised the Iran issue with the United States and let him Deeply stimulated, after leaving Iran, I went to the Far East directly to integrate British-owned enterprises and increase economic strength.”

Because of money issues, a conflict broke out between Bai Liji and Alan Wilson. The root cause is that Bai Liji announced to the Legislative Council that Hong Kong had obtained "fiscal autonomy" shortly after he served as the governor of Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong government will no longer need to hand over its budget to London. review.

In terms of economic affairs, there is no need to obtain the consent of the colonial minister in economic decision-making in the future. The Hong Kong government can independently formulate its own economic policies, and the colonial office will only intervene in the affairs of Hong Kong's foreign loans.

London did not agree with the idea of ​​financial independence in Hong Kong, especially the cabinet secretary Norman Brooke, so Alan Wilson went to the Far East and covered the British-owned enterprises in Hong Kong with the Overseas Assets Management Committee. Full support.

"You are fighting over overseas British capital?" Aiden called you by name, indicating that he did not know the source of this conflict.

"It's not a competition, but a more effective use of overseas economic power to serve the United Kingdom." Norman Brooke explained calmly, "And I tell the truth, the resistance of the Hong Kong Governor is futile. Dear Prime Minister, do you think Thinking about who Ellen's wife is, many British-owned companies in Hong Kong rely on the partners of the Mountbatten Group, and as long as Pamela says a word, they won't care what the Hong Kong Governor says."

Capital and capital are also different, and now the largest group in the UK is undoubtedly the Mountbatten Group. In the oil industry alone, Mountbatten Oil is no match for BP. In the auto industry alone, Land Rover and other cars have no advantage.

But the Mountbatten Group not only has two industries, but the manufacturing of civil passenger aircraft is divided into two parts of the world. Not to mention the mining industry. The Mountbatten Group, which has been deeply involved in Australia, is already the strongest in the world.

"Indeed, that little girl from UU reading www.uukanshu.com Pamela, a word now is more useful than my prime minister in some areas." Aiden smiled bitterly, "She has been living in Perth, Australia, right? ?"

"When the weather in London gets cold, she will go to the southern hemisphere." Norman Brooke replied with a look of uncertainty, "She is also helping to weave an intricate web of business relationships centered around Malaya. There is no doubt that this is a good thing for the UK."

At the end of this round of dialogue, Norman Brooke immediately informed Alan Wilson of the Hong Kong Governor's dissatisfaction.

"What's his dissatisfaction with?" Alan Wilson squinted at his wife with the telegram. "He's just a governor. Shouldn't he still wait for Whitehall to arrange for his retirement? Term of office is unlimited?"

"You put your hand on someone else's plate, isn't it dissatisfying?" Pamela Mountbatten reached out and grabbed the telegram and read it again, and said indifferently, "I don't think it's a big problem, you will succeed. of."

"I'm not prepared to fail at all." Alan Wilson raised his head. "Our country, in the end, depends on money to speak. If you have money, I have the right. We can do whatever we want in the UK."
