According to the original movie plot, William Turner was sent to find Jack Sparrow, and Chen Mo asked Lord Beckett to invite Governor Swan to his office.

In the original book of the movie, Governor Swan seems to be a rather comic character, and the image he shows is also the appearance of a weak and incompetent old father who spoils his daughter too much, which makes people not have a deep impression of him.

However, as a British colonial governor, it is impossible for Governor Swan to be just what he showed in the movie.

As the governor of the colony directly appointed by the king, he enjoys the military and political power of the colony, can mobilize the armed forces and fleet of the colony, and can even promulgate laws in the colony and do whatever he wants.

As long as he submits to the rule of the British king and executes the orders from home, then a colonial governor is equivalent to a real ruler in the local area.

This is why in the first part of the movie, Governor Swan can let Commodore Norrington take the fleet to rescue his daughter, and even the East India Company has to cooperate with him in the third part, because a governor has great power .

Governor Swan was only weak because of his personality and the fact that his daughter was arrested. Otherwise, with the power of a colonial governor, even the East India Company would not be able to deal with a powerful colonial governor.

In particular, the governor is also the governor of Port Royal.

Port Royal is located on the island of Jamaica in the northwest of the Caribbean Sea. It is one of the most important shipping ports in the Caribbean Sea. It is also the shipping center of the Caribbean Sea in this era and an important commercial center in the Caribbean Sea.

Jamaica Island is the third largest island in the Caribbean Sea, and it is also the most famous sugar, rum and coffee producing area in this era. There are a large number of plantations on the island, which can be said to be an important part of British colonial rule in the Caribbean Sea part.

The core of all this is Port Royal, ruled by Governor Swan.

During the busiest time of the route, a large number of merchant ships gather in Port Royal every day to buy and sell goods.

A huge amount of money flows here every day, and it is also known as the richest city in the world.

It can be said that controlling Port Royal is equivalent to controlling the entire Caribbean Sea, and even the entire New World.

After all, transcontinental material transportation and exchanges in this era all rely on sea transportation, and the route connecting the Caribbean Sea to Europe is the main channel for communication between the New World and Europe in this era. Once it gets stuck here, it can be said that it can completely influence or even control the entire America.

Therefore, it is very important to obtain the cooperation and support of the governor.

Governor Swann was quickly invited to the office that originally belonged to him. Perhaps because of his daughter's arrest, Governor Swann had a very bad attitude towards Lord Beckett and put on a cold, uncooperative face.

Despite Lord Beckett's persuasion, Governor Swan still had no intention of cooperating with the East India Company.

Seeing that Lord Beckett was unable to convince Governor Swann, Chen Mo had no choice but to go out himself.

"Governor Swann, I hope you can understand that everything the East India Company has done is for Britain." Although the entire East India Company has long been reduced to Chen Mo's personal property, he still pulled out a piece of paper to persuade Governor Swann. This big British flag: "Need me to count for you how much the East India Company has contributed to Britain's seizure of India? Or do I need to tell you that His Majesty the King has loaned millions of pounds from the East India Company? Or do you want to hear the East India Company The Indian company is responsible for all the current imports of the UK and pays more than 20% of the country's fiscal revenue in taxes every year?"

"The East India Company can't represent Britain, and you can't represent the entire East India Company." As a governor, Governor Swan clearly knows the importance of the East India Company to Britain now. If it is not necessary, he does not want to have a conflict with the East India Company conflict.

But it was clear that the governor was very angry that his precious daughter was a prisoner of the East India Company.

Didn't want to work with Lord Beckett.

In particular, Governor Swan and Lord Beckett were not strangers. He clearly understood what kind of person Lord Beckett was, and cooperating with such a person was tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger.

Although Governor Swan didn't know who the oriental man in front of him was, he still noticed Lord Beckett's respect for Chen Mo, so he asked, "Then who are you?"

"Me? I am no one, just myself." Chen Mo did not explain his identity to Governor Swann, but persuaded him: "Governor Swann, even if you don't consider the current British and French colonies in the New World The war needs the support of the East India Company, and the elimination of pirates to ensure smooth trade, you should always think about your daughter, right?"

"Elizabeth! What do you want to do to my daughter?" Governor Swan's face immediately changed when he mentioned his daughter.

Obviously nothing is more important to Governor Swan than his daughter.

Fortunately, Chen Mo did not intend to use Elizabeth to threaten Governor Swan, but said to him: "It's not what I want to do to your daughter, but what you want to do for your daughter. Miss Elizabeth is young and beautiful, I think If she lived in London, she should become the most dazzling pearl in the social occasions of the upper class, right?

Think about it, she has an extraordinary family and a beautiful appearance. With your status as the Governor of Swann, the person who can marry her should at least be a young and promising officer of the Royal Navy or an heir to a certain nobleman. Instead of marrying a penniless poor boy, especially if he was the son of a pirate. "

Chen Mo's words clearly touched Governor Swan's heart.

He loves his daughter Governor Swan in every possible way, so he naturally wants to give his daughter the best.

Even in the New World, he still tried his best to get the most popular clothes, skirts and all kinds of jewelry in London for his daughter, so that his daughter could enjoy the best life he could give.

According to his original idea, Elizabeth should marry the young and promising Brigadier General Norrington, but her daughter fell in love with a blacksmith instead.

The old father couldn't help his stubborn daughter, so he had to agree to the marriage. He could only comfort himself that at least William Turner was a good boy, and he was really good to Elizabeth to comfort his broken heart.

But now what Chen Mo said made Governor Swan obviously have some different ideas.

"What do you want to do?" Governor Swan asked Chen Mo again, but this time there was no toughness of dissatisfaction in his tone, but a real inquiry.
