Rebirth of England

Chapter 318 Kolo Shilling

At 9:30 pm on August 27, in the final of the men's 110-meter hurdles at the Athens Olympics, Liu Xiang, a flying star from China, won the gold medal with a time of 12.91 seconds.

This result tied the world record set by British athlete Colin Jackson in 1993 and broke the Olympic record of 12.95 seconds.

At this time, not many people in the world paid attention to what happened on a small island near the island country of Cyprus.

Even in Cyprus, it was only mentioned in news reports that on the island called Solana, the residence of entrepreneur and philanthropist Louis Lafayette was suspected of being attacked by unknown armed forces, including Rafael. Several people, including Yett, were missing, and the police found several wrecks on the island. It was difficult to get more information because the buildings on the entire island were engulfed in fire...

Don’t see that 20 years later, when you search for information about Cyprus on the Internet, you will find that it has the lowest crime rate, is friendly to Chinese people, and is suitable for immigrants...

If you pay more attention, you will find that those who wrote these are all "immigration agents".

In order to make money, these people dare to blow Asan into a heaven on earth...

At least in Cyprus at this time, because there are still conflicts between South Cyprus and North Cyprus from time to time, the public security is not good.

In the end, the matter on Solana Island was settled. Even such a result was largely due to the promotion of certain "big people".

After all, although it was a pity that there was no place to "have fun" in the future, Lafayette's disappearance also made many people breathe a sigh of relief - it doesn't feel good to have the leverage in other people's hands. Just like Epstein later "committed suicide" in prison...

Louis Lafayette is dead.

He was killed by Mikhail himself.

Mikhail himself knew the situation on Solana Island very well. With his help, Lafayette's men had no resistance at all against the heavily armed elite troops. .

After finding Louis Lafayette and killing him with his own hands, Mikhail and the others left with some men and women rescued from Solana Island.

Before leaving, he was very serious about burning down all the buildings on the island.

According to the previous arrangement, after they loaded everyone on a merchant ship, they would go directly to their destination - the Munger base in the Kolo Prairie Province.

Speaking of Kolo, after Jaime Bongo returned to Kolo after his visits to various countries, he instructed Kolo’s Minister of Finance to submit to the Kolo Parliament a proposal regarding Kolo’s withdrawal from the West African franc zone and the issuance of its own country. Currency Proposal.

There is no doubt that this proposal was passed.

According to this proposal, Colo issued a timetable for withdrawing from the West African CFA franc zone and issuing its own currency.

The Kolo's new currency will be named the Kolo Shilling. The Kolo Shilling will be issued in quantity and at an exchange rate determined by the Caulo Monetary Policy Committee (CMPC), and will be issued by the United Bank for West Africa.

The Kolo Monetary Committee consists of seven members, three of whom are from the Ministry of Finance, two from the United Bank for West Africa, and two who are monetary policy advisers hired by the Kolo government - usually from Kolo Development and Reform Research Center.

The Anglo-African Institute originally established by Barron has been renamed the Colo Development and Reform Research Center and has its headquarters in Lottie, the capital. Only a liaison office responsible to Barron is retained in London.

The issuance of the Kolo Shilling will be calculated by the Kolo Monetary Policy Committee (CMPC) using certain weights based on gross domestic product. The initial currency value of the Colo Shilling was set at 1 Colo Shilling to 0.1 Euro. Later, the exchange rate of the Colo Shilling was adjusted based on policy changes...

Since the exchange rate of the West African CFA franc is roughly fixed at 1 euro to 656 West African CFA francs, 1 Colo shilling can be exchanged for 65.6 West African CFA francs.

According to the timetable released by Kolo, the Kolo shilling will be officially issued on October 1 this year. All Kolo citizens or foreigners in Kolo who hold West African CFA francs can go to any West African country. Exchange at Union Bank branches.

The year starting from October 1 this year, that is, ending on September 30 next year, is the transition period between the Kolo shilling and the West African CFA franc in Kolo.

Starting from October 1 next year, the Kolo shilling will be the only legal tender in Kolo. The West African CFA franc will be withdrawn from circulation and enter the foreign exchange restrictions in Kolo. Domestic merchants also have the right to refuse to accept West African CFA francs.

At the same time, Kolo also released a sample of the first version of the Kolo Shilling.

The Kolo Shilling will be divided into 1p coins and banknotes in six denominations: 1 shilling, 5 shillings, 10 shillings, 20 shillings, 50 shillings and 100 shillings.

These banknotes will use special paper to adapt to the local climate of Kolo and avoid the previous situation where the West African CFA franc was prone to moisture and mold in Kolo.

"Monopoly, this is a naked monopoly, and the Football Association and the Premier League are both accomplices of this monopoly. The consequence of this monopoly is that our citizens need to spend more money to watch the broadcast of the game. The wool lies in the sheep. On the body, the final raised price is paid by the user..."

In the meeting of the House of Lords, Barron, as a member of Parliament, was rarely present today, and heard another member of Parliament criticize Sky TV for having monopolized the broadcast of the Premier League in England for the past 13 years.

"As we all know, Sky TV belongs to News Corporation, at least they control a majority of the shares. If we continue to rely on the current bid to determine the only broadcast qualification, I am afraid that our domestic TV stations will not be able to compete with Sky TV, which has a strong background. The result of this is that more and more of our media are being acquired by foreign capital, including News Corporation. They can easily decide what people can and cannot see. Our diversity in the UK is about to be ended... "

After the congressman finished his speech, Barron was the first to applaud, and then, in the meeting of the House of Lords, there was thunderous applause.

Of course, many congressmen did not follow the applause. They looked around the venue silently, their eyes flashing.

Although the power of the House of Lords has been greatly restricted, after they formed a unified opinion, the documents submitted to the British government could not be easily ignored.

After Summit Media purchased the three-year broadcasting rights for all low-level football matches in England except the Premier League for 120 million pounds, this time it also acquired the "monopoly" on Sky TV's local broadcasting rights for the Premier League. Launched a small challenge.

After all, as early as a year ago, Sky TV purchased the exclusive local broadcast rights of the Premier League for the next two years at a price of more than 1 billion pounds.

Even though the sports content currently owned by SD Sports, including some of the exciting matches from the just-concluded Athens Olympics, has a certain appeal to users, and the cost of the SD Sports channel is much lower than that of the Sky Sports channel, the Premier League is still Sky Sports' big killer.

Based on the "good relationship" between Murdoch and the current Prime Minister, Barron does not feel that Sky TV's monopoly on the Premier League can be changed just by relying on this motion in the House of Lords.

However, everything needs to be done step by step, and dealing with News Corporation must be done step by step...
