The hottest thing in Paris in August is the Cannes International Film Festival that has already started. There are also many Hollywood stars in Paris who come to Paris. The arrival of these stars makes the passionate and romantic French extremely excited, and many bright and bright stars became the center of the newspaper.

On August 29, 1949, a huge earthquake from the territory of the Soviet Union was detected by the United Kingdom and the United States. The four-year U.S. nuclear monopoly was broken.

At the same time as the Cannes International Film Festival came to an end, a reconnaissance plane sent by the United States went deep into the territory of the Soviet Union and detected radioactive elements spreading in the air, which proved the fact that the Soviet Union had successfully tested a nuclear bomb.

Citizens of all countries are concerned about the film festival, talking about the romantic affairs of handsome men and women, but the British and American high-level executives are silent.

"The Soviets are ahead of us. Can the finished alloy tube project come out?" At the cabinet meeting, Prime Minister Attlee asked solemnly, "What now? The United States and the Soviet Union have nuclear bombs, only us. I don't have it! What can I do to maintain the position of the British Empire?"

"According to the report of the project leader, we will be able to produce the finished product by the end of the year at the most. Unexpectedly, it is the Soviet Union. It is hard to imagine that they are ahead of us." Defense Minister Albert and Alexander also successfully tested the Soviet nuclear explosion. Shocked by the news.

"We must come up with enough to defend the interests of the British Empire. This is what we must do." Attlee said solemnly, "Time is precious, I hope you gentlemen understand this."

There are many things that have put pressure on Prime Minister Attlee. The situation in the Far East was already worrying, and now there is such bad news.

After the meeting, Cabinet Secretary Norman Brooke entered the Prime Minister's office, took out a stack of documents, and said, "Prime Minister, this is the information asked by the United States, how to reply?"

"Norman, you know it too." Attlee ignored the documents in front of him and sighed, "This is unfortunate news for the British Empire. The Soviets were already indestructible on land. It's more difficult to deal with, and we have to say that Europe has become more dangerous."

"Maybe!" Norman Brooke pondered for a while, "I believe Washington is also in shock now."

"Of course, Truman must be anxious now, so why am I not?" Prime Minister Attlee said with a wry smile.

After thinking about it for a long time, Prime Minister Attlee began to read the documents sent by the United States on the significance of establishing the Export Control Coordination Committee.

The proposal from the United States is not only this one, but also the proposal on the merger of the three regions, and said that if London can quickly promote the merger of the three occupied regions, it can get an exchange of benefits, and also points out that the three regions merge to establish the central government. After Germany , as a natural defense against the Soviet Union's attack on Western Europe.

"It seems that we have to agree!" Attlee glanced at it and thought for a while, "I now feel that the entire British Empire is full of crises, there are crises overseas, and there are crises in Europe, even if the current 800,000 The troops still feel that they are not enough."

"Yes, Prime Minister, the Far East, the Middle East, and Europe all need the help of the military. At present, the situation in the Far East is the most precarious, but once a crisis breaks out, it will be the deadliest in Europe." Norman Brooke said with a wry smile.

"Don't we have a suitable talent in the Far East?" Prime Minister Attlee said suddenly, "I remember that Allen is a talent in this area. Can he stabilize the situation in Asia?"

"Actually, I've been thinking recently, where is he more suitable. But recently he's making friends with McCarthy!" Norman Brooke introduced Alan Wilson's work in the United States, and did not conceal that Alan Wilson didn't even know much about the Boston consulate. Going back to the fact that the only thing to watch was the deep friendship that built McCarthy.

"If he really has that wish, let him go to Malaya to stabilize the local situation. Wait a minute, and bring him back first." Attlee didn't struggle for too long, so he just decided.

On September 3rd, Alan Wilson also learned about the successful detonation of the Soviet nuclear bomb, but he was not a personal intelligence channel. McCarthy was attacking the Truman administration on TV, and testified his remarks with the successful detonation of the Soviet nuclear bomb. The federal government is full of Soviet spies, and it has been infiltrated by the Soviets.

"I remember countless statements proving that the Soviet Union will not control the nuclear bomb for ten years, they are backward, they are poor. Now I want to ask the gentlemen who were very optimistic about this before to explain, where did the Soviet Union's nuclear bomb technology come from Yes." McCarthy's spittle star seemed to be able to fly out through the screen, and the whole person was very emotional.

Of course, in the eyes of McCarthy's supporters, this sentiment that no one loves America more than me is the real America. The so-called well-dressed government officials are not American at all.

"Your friend is in the limelight!" Vivien Leigh snuggled on the man's shoulder, pretending to be interested in politics.

"Needless to say, the news of the successful detonation of the Soviet nuclear bomb will definitely keep the FBI busy." Alan Wilson chuckled, "Hey, London has called me back."

"Then you can go back!" Vivien Leigh looked at Ellen Wilson with understanding, "I will find you when I give birth to the child."

"I'm going to hand over the work, it's not too late." Alan Wilson rubbed the belly of Great Britain Treasure, "Always have to hand over it, it's not too late until the new Boston consul arrives in the United States."

He wanted to wait until Vivien Leigh gave birth to her child before going back, because he wanted to have a farewell ceremony with his American friends, and McCarthy was specifically mentioned in the telegram.

"Actually, what are the Americans panicking about? Can't they do research on their own?" Alan Wilson listened to McCarthy's loud voice on the TV, and said indifferently.

"What a terrible weapon is a nuclear bomb. People say that it can destroy the earth." Vivien Leigh disagreed. The remarks she watched on TV were not what the man said at all.

"The ants always think highly of their own status. They don't necessarily want to destroy human beings. They also want to destroy the earth. It's very interesting." Alan Wilson laughed. , one will say that the Soviets cannot build nuclear weapons, and one will say that the earth will be destroyed, can you speak with a unified opinion?"

Regarding the explosion of the Soviet nuclear weapons, it seems that the Americans are not lightly stimulated. But as far as Alan Wilson sees it, how simple it is, the so-called information obtained by the Soviet spies from the United States, even if all of them are true, is only a small part of the effect.

The emergence of such a project cannot be solved by theft, and the Soviet Union itself has this strength.

Just as the Soviet Union also helped a major country with its nuclear program, who can say that a major country's nuclear weapons are all the credit of the Soviet Union, and they have done nothing? Anyone who dares to say that will be sprayed to death!

But most people are like this. They must have undergone meticulous research and started from scratch. Even if they get help from outside, they must be the result of their own efforts. But the same thing happens to other countries, that is stealing.

Why don't the Americans count how much help they got from the earlier alloy tube projects in the UK? And later regret it?

Alan Wilson, in the name of handover, had a drink with McCarthy, "Joseph, my friend, I may have to return to my homeland. The work experience here is a day worth remembering. The biggest reward is getting to know you."

"Oh, Ellen, are you going back?" McCarthy said in surprise, "This time I'm here to say goodbye."

"If you have the opportunity to go to London, or go to other places for vacation, if it is a British Overseas Territory, I can arrange it for you." Alan Wilson admitted that his work as consul in Boston has ended. It’s unclear where we will go. But no matter where I am, the friendship between you and me will not change, and it will not be alienated because of age.”

Alan Wilson looked sincere, and he even decided to help the other party kill Chaplin, but there may be some conspiracy theories that believe that Chaplin's death may be related to the United States.

It just so happens that Chaplin has just been deported from the United States, isn't it very appropriate?

Although it is morally unreasonable to attack a world-renowned comedy master. However, in order to add fire to the American film industry and even the entire domestic environment, he believes that it is worth paying a small price.

Besides, he is not ready to do it right away. Alan Wilson accidentally remembered that after Chaplin was expelled, he would make a movie that attacked the United States. It seemed to be called The King of New York. experience. It should be more appropriate to wait until the film is released.

McCarthy, unaware that his long-term friendship is in the throes of bad water, prepares to bring the death of a comedy master down to the American factor.

However, Alan Wilson also showed a sincere side, which was his advice to McCarthy before he left, "My friend Joseph, I have seen many congressmen, which may be different from those in the United States, but I believe in doing things from the same angle. It is also similar, congressmen like you are very real, although they show the support of American citizens, they may also be used by bad people, I am very worried about this.”

McCarthy was also taken aback by Alan Wilson's sincere performance. He understood that this young foreign friend was reminding him of his true feelings, and said quite moved, "Alan, don't be so sad, you may be even more emotional after returning to China. valued by London.”

"I hope so, but it's you, Joseph." Alan Wilson didn't change the subject. "We Whitehall civil servants spend most of their time studying elected members and know how to deal with them. If I If you are an American, you may find ways to deal with you by the congressmen who serve you every day."

"Don't criticize overly powerful forces. People in the literary and art circles are a good target with little energy and great harm. But many departments cannot be touched, and these departments have great power. Once they unite against you, the consequences will be unimaginable. The most powerful department is undoubtedly the military, and don't offend the military at any time."

McCarthy listened to the heartfelt words of his friends, and heard the sincerity he had never seen before, and finally agreed, "My friend, I have written down your suggestion. When you return home, I will definitely come and say goodbye."
