British Civil Servant
Chapter 168: Gentleman's Country
Alan Wilson has even been double-minded, figuring out how to carry out the evil plan. Like many countries, most British citizens do not consider acting as a noble profession in this day and age. Of course, this is not wrong.
Actors are always associated with flesh and blood, especially in the UK, actors can be said to have nothing to do with high society.
The same is true for Vivien Leigh. Vivien Leigh's dream is to become a great actress, but her mother thinks that theatrical performance is not a high society business and does not support her dream.
Of course, now Vivien Leigh has become famous, and her income is beyond the reach of ordinary citizens. In the eyes of ordinary citizens, it is undoubtedly an enviable object, but for the upper class, Vivien Leigh's situation has not changed.
British people born in British India are generally two kinds of people, either civil servants or soldiers. Sailors who go on adventures will not have a stable life.
So even if it is a guess, Alan Wilson can judge that Vivien Leigh's family of origin should not be bad.
Alan Wilson introduced the situation of British India. The rare one did not focus on the negative image, but pretended to be a good person. At the same time, he also said that compared with the British mainland, British India is indeed relatively backward.
"In fact, Miss Vivien Leigh's image can serve the British Empire completely. As for the profession of an actor, I have no prejudice at all. I also think that if an actor can play a role, he can also serve the empire." Alan Wilson objectively discussed the actor's role effect.
Even the group of bumpkins in the United States can develop cultural hegemony. Since all the bumpkins can do it, the UK can also try it.
Cultural hegemony refers to the imposition of ideological and cultural values between countries, and between nations. and the nation, it will produce cultural hegemony, and it will affect the culture of other nationalities.
In addition to teasing a few countries with immunity, Hollywood in later generations can be said to have captured the world. As for a movie city that mainly focuses on kung fu movies and claims to be the second largest movie city in the world, it was also destroyed.
Hollywood produces about 10 percent of the world's films each year, but its screening time accounts for more than half of the world's total, and its box office revenue accounts for more than 75 percent of the world's total box office revenue.
As early as before the First World War, American films defeated the old film powerhouses of Europe in one fell swoop, and it was also the French who invented the film.
But so far, European films in the field of literary and artistic films are still worthy of the United States. The crushing of European films by American films is after the explosion of special effects technology, which completely makes all opponents lose their ability to confront.
In front of Vivien Leigh, Alan Wilson said that no one understands movies better than me, and they have a set of words for the development of movies.
The more she listened, the more wrong Furtseva became. She used words to speak to an actor?
"Mr. Allen, how do you say how to exert an actor's influence?" Vivien Leigh also hopes that an actor will become a respected profession, but has no clue.
"Maybe a public welfare film is needed, and it must be linked to charity. Make some hard work to let the citizens of European countries know that there are still many countries and regions in the world that are in poverty." Alan Wilson said with compassion, "By the way, Miss Vivienne, you were born in British India. I believe that if you arrive in British India one day, you will definitely be able to have a crowded effect, because you represent the civilization and philosophy of the British Empire, and there are some things you can do more believable.”
Is this Vivian? Seeing that Vivien Leigh seemed more and more agitated, Fultseva interrupted, "I didn't expect Mr. Allen to know something about movies. I wonder if Soviet movies can get some good advice?"
This is of course not difficult for Alan Wilson. Soviet films have had an important impact on half the world. He answered without stopping, "Soviet films are based on realism and have had an important impact on many places. The Soviet Union is a literary power. , excellent literary works and a strong literary tradition provided a solid foundation for the development of Soviet films. There is a phenomenon that cannot be ignored. Almost all excellent films in the history of the Soviet Union were adapted from excellent literary works. The cultural heritage is the Soviet film industry. help.”
Vivien Leigh is an ordinary actor, what do you know about cultural exchanges between the two countries? The real exchange was Alan Wilson, who, as a protector, covered Vivien Leigh against the Soviet cultural czar Furtseva more than ten years later.
For the game between the officials of the two countries, this is something Vivien Leigh has never encountered before, and she found one thing, that is, this young man knows a lot.
"This knowledge, it's all learned." Alan Wilson's mouth was like a machine gun, starting from the birth of French film history, until the United States came after the market size, and then began to carry private goods, saying that the Soviet Union was impossible Relying solely on administrative power, it can be compared with American films.
"Treatment is the soft underbelly of any class in the Soviet Union. A good actor should have good treatment. This is not a problem that can be solved by simple consciousness. Of course, it is too extreme like the United States. Talents in any industry are rare. Among the civil servants, there are not many people with a strong knowledge reserve like me."
The corners of Fortseva's mouth twitched slightly. Compared with the seemingly huge knowledge reserve, the shamelessness of this imperialist bureaucrat in front of him is truly rare.
The cultural exchange representatives on the British side are better. As for the Soviet Union, the eradication rate of alcohol is significantly faster than that of the UK. This made Alan Wilson sigh, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has to increase the funding.
Fortseva had to leave for a while to let the Soviet representatives of cultural exchanges not become too obsessed with alcohol.
"Ellen, you're not too old, so that's what I call you." Vivien Leigh asked after Furtseva left, "Is it feasible to improve the social status of actors?"
Of course not feasible, people's prejudice will only be passed down from generation to generation! Alan Wilson said slowly, "It depends on a person's hard work in the process of life. In fact, I have an idea, I should shoot a public welfare film in the British colonies, so that citizens in the country can understand how the British Empire is. Those who lead backward civilization to progress. Of course, actors are all independent individuals, we can't force actors to do anything, we have to talk about it, and we need to be patriotic."
Alan Wilson is old imperialism as soon as he opens his mouth. Without the guidance of the British Empire, many places are doomed to not develop. He can even find examples, such as India after independence.
"I can also talk, and I can be patriotic. If there is a chance, the country needs me, and I will definitely try it." Vivien Leigh nodded blankly. Actors can also be patriotic, and they can also contribute to the country.
Vivien Leigh asked Ellen Wilson if she had seen her own movie, and of course she did not, but Ellen Wilson once again showed the basic qualities of an imperial civil servant, saying that he could feel from the movie that there was no cowardice in Vivien Leigh's acting skills. And pretentious, but inadvertently soft and charming mixed with unruly, this is also her charm.
In Gone with the Wind, she seems to be born for the role of Hao Scarlett, a cat-like girl, cunning, charming and lovely, and her eyes are simply superb.
"But I still like the happy ending." Alan Wilson talked eloquently, responding with a long-standing reserve of words, which was not seen by Vivien Leigh.
Fortseva's return saved Alan Wilson, who had entered a state of speechlessness, but in Vivien Leigh's heart, she had already left a deep impression on this young diplomat.
"Men must be able to blow!" It was late at night, and there were few cars on the road. Under the moonlight, the road was like a white ribbon leading into the distance. The street trees on both sides were quickly retreating, and the surroundings were so quiet. The car window was opened, and cold wind poured in, which immediately made Alan Wilson's mind clear.
Fortunately, in 1945, there were no regulations on drunk driving, otherwise he might have been fined.
He really wanted to take the opportunity of serving the country to get Vivien Leigh to British India. When he came to his own territory, Vivien Leigh could not fly away from his palm.
This is not a momentary thought, but a plan to be put into action. This is all for the benefit of the British Empire~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It is necessary to adopt a certain degree of numbness towards the subjects of British India in order to facilitate the next action.
Alan Wilson, a pariah in the vast rural areas, cares, but as long as the urbanites are not rashly acted, it is already a success, and as long as the elites of British India are stable, British India is stable.
The most important thing is that Alan Wilson got Vivien Leigh's contact information. When Vivien Leigh's husband is away, he can be a guest as a friend.
Arriving at the hotel, Alan Wilson got off the car, and a row of cars behind him slowly stopped. For polite reasons and safety reasons, he could not let a group of Soviet people show off their power on the streets of London after being drunk.
For this reason, we had to take the risk of bad relations between the two countries, and let MI5 agents drive to send these Soviet cultural representatives back.
"These Russians are obviously more interested in alcohol than in cultural exchanges." An MI5 agent frowned and commented on the fluttering Soviets.
Even Furtseva couldn't walk stably, but there was nothing serious on the surface, Alan Wilson sighed, "Let's send these people up, after all, the British Empire is a country of gentlemen."
