British Civil Servant

v1 Chapter 235: jet age

In response to Sir Barron's words, Alan Wilson made a surprised, but not excessive, expression, indicating that the recent drama with Vivien Leigh is by no means in vain, and has already achieved phased results.

He actually knew about this matter. He had already returned to British India. Of course, Pamela Mountbatten's telegrams did not need to be handed over to him. Delayed my father's appointment, and so on...

But his immediate boss is next to him, and he can't say that he knew the news before Sir Barron. This is not what Jack Ma said, "I'm busier than the president, but I don't have the power of the president."

If so, at least before Mountbatten arrives in British India, Alan Wilson will first have to parry Sir Barron's training, "It's news from Sir Edward!"

Seeing Alan Wilson with a surprised daze, Sir Barron was very satisfied, and turned to ask what he and Pedro were talking about today.

The conversation with Pedro is still in the secret stage, and the same is true for Sir Barron, who is the head of British India, but he has absolutely no idea of ​​this highly regarded assistant. I have already estimated the price of the entire British India in my heart, and I am looking for a seller to sell it in a package.

Compared with the courage, Alan Wilson is much more than this civil servant leader. Naturally, he has inner motivation to do so. In order to make the British Empire continue to be great, British India must cash in. There is a minefield in front of him, and he has to bravely go over it.

Fooled Sir Barron with some trivialities, just talking about Goa's geography.

"If we withdraw from the subcontinent, Goa's status is very similar to Hong Kong." Sir Barron said suddenly, "It's very similar, isn't it? But then again, the governors of Xiangjiang are changed very frequently, it seems that there have been three governors. , is not as stable as British India. Alan, you have lived in Xiangjiang, what impression do you have there."

"There is no special impression of a place with a big booger." Alan Wilson replied indifferently, "One of the many colonies of the British Empire, it is not a very good one. It can be regarded as British Malaya. A window to attract immigrants and balance the pacifists in the East Indies. I think the biggest difficulty in British India today is that there is no way to deal with Hindus, and similar mistakes must not be repeated.”

"Yes, balance is the best way to manage a colony." Sir Barron nodded with satisfaction. "You seem to have sent a lot of people to the Andaman Islands, don't you?"

"Once the great famine comes, British India will have no time to control the archipelago. If there is a famine on the island, it can be regarded as part of the famine in the subcontinent." Alan Wilson said without the slightest emotion, "give them an entry The opportunity for statistical data is already recognized as a trip to the world, as for other things, their personal abilities are limited, and they shouldn’t ask too much.”

The 1946 famine this time was a big test for Alan Wilson. Since it was a big test, he naturally hoped to solve as many things as possible through this big famine.

After coming to the subcontinent, the previous operations can be regarded as laying the foundation, and whether many of the problems previously planned can be solved according to the situation depends on when the great famine comes.

Alan Wilson believes that it will come to the glorious subcontinent with vigorous steps.

It didn't take long for Alan Wilson to leave the Governor's Mansion, knocking on the door with familiarity, and when the door was opened, he said, "Miss Vivian, I just attended the reception and took the liberty to come over to disturb."

"It's really very presumptuous." Vivien Leigh threw a wink, and let the door open, snap! The door was slammed shut, as if everything was an illusion just now.

Vivien Leigh's documentary film, India's Daughter, has not yet been completed, but it has come to an end.

But now the time is pressing, usually a day without rain can't see anything, but in a place that depends on the sky to eat, this can be fatal during the busy farming season, of course, this is also a good opportunity for Vivien Leigh.

"As long as you come to America, bring your documentary film and the news of the famine in India, and donate even a little food. You are the object of this year's empire's propaganda. Goddess of London, daughter of India, any praise you want, will be It's easy to get it. At that time, your popularity will be world-wide, and you will not appear as an actor."

Armed with Cleopatra's fiery body, Alan Wilson followed suit, indicating that this was a good opportunity for a class jump. In the future, Vivien Leigh will still be an actor, but she will not be a pure actor anymore.

"It's you who held me like that." A pair of arms like lotus roots wrapped around the man's neck, and Vivien Leigh even had the urge to give birth to a child for this little man.

However, the demon queen still suppressed this urge, she couldn't be sorry for her husband, at least she had to think about it after divorce.

Alan Wilson naturally would not have imagined that even an international actress had such poor resistance, that he would have thought of a divorce under his ubiquitous charm.

In fact, it's no wonder that Alan Wilson is a person with integrity. He will do his best to help others plan when he takes advantage. This is something that only Portuguese people have just learned today.

In Vivien Leigh, this feature is particularly prominent. It can be said that the more severe the famine in India, the more Vivien Leigh's image will rise.

And this time, the hegemony of public opinion of the British Empire will never be used to block news, but to shape the image of the British Empire through the great famine. In this process, if Vivien Leigh can shoulder the national mission, she will naturally also get the British Empire. However, it still depends on Vivien Leigh herself.

"If you are a smart brain, if you are a scientist, you may lead the progress of society." Vivien pointed at the little man's nose with a scallion-like finger, "Now it's all about studying people's hearts."

"It's good to be able to understand the human heart. Besides, whoever said that I didn't lead the progress of society, I submitted a manuscript to de Havilland." Alan Wilson said in pieces, "It's just in someone else's name."

As for whose name was used, of course, it was the name of Pamela Mountbatten. This time the submission was for the Comet jet airliner project. As for why the name of Pamela Mountbatten was used, the answer is that Pamela Mountbatten's mother has Money, the father has the right.

And Pamela Mountbatten likes herself, so she has to help her. Of course, the contact with Pamela Mountbatten started by throwing money, which shows that how hard a man's waist is depends largely on the economy strength.

But after showing economic prowess, something else had to come out, and Alan Wilson wasn't mentally ready.

To teach civil servants to a woman who should be a wife. He wasn't in London, and of course he didn't know that Pamela Mountbatten had used the words he heard and heard on his father.

The world's first jet airliner was actually the British Comet. Britain was one of the first countries to invent jet engines. After World War II, the British used jet technology for civilian aircraft.

De Havilland also obtained information on German aerodynamic studies of swept-back wings.

After that, de Havilland began to design a jet airliner and named it the Comet. This civil airliner was the first civil airliner powered by a jet engine and was considered revolutionary technology at the time.

Since before and after the First World War, Britain has always had a problem, getting up early to catch up with a late episode. Always come up with very advanced technology to create a prototype.

If it is said that US-made weapons use super-first-class materials to make super-class weapons, and Soviet-made weapons use second-class materials to integrate first-class weapon systems, I, Great Britain, do not take the usual path and use first-class materials to create second-class weapons. Have done this more than once!

The technology is not without it. It is no problem to test any link alone, but there will be problems when assembling it. The Comet jetliner is just one such example at hand.

The Comet aircraft adopted new technologies and materials at that time as soon as it appeared~lightnovelpub.net~ It is considered to be a large jet airliner that represented the most advanced level at that time in terms of flight speed, comfort, and number of passengers.

Thanks to Pamela Mountbatten, who has now been carried away by love, she took Alan Wilson's Boeing 737 outline drawings to London by express and went to De Havilland's company to reveal her identity. , and at the same time to show the desire to bring funds into the group.

Why is it an outline drawing? This is because Alan Wilson has only seen the appearance of a Boeing airliner. It is good to draw it from memory. In order to improve the success rate, he also instilled some words about metal fatigue in the telegram.

But even so, he couldn't guarantee that Pamela Mountbatten would be able to help him get it right.

For this second-generation daughter of Quan who was still childish, de Havilland was originally dismissive, and from the appearance, it was impossible to associate Pamela Mountbatten with the design of the aircraft.

But Pamela Mountbatten is indeed in a state of love, but she also shows a different side when she is in a state of love, such as Whitehall's standard civil servant speech.

As soon as they met, Pamela Mountbatten used a set of civil servants to shock de Havilland. In addition, the father is the former commander-in-chief of Southeast Asia, and the mother is the background of the famous wealthy businessman's family, and finally came up with the outline sketch of the Boeing airliner.

This surprised de Havilland. He was studying jet airliners. Of course, he could see that this sketch was of great reference. Then, after listening to Pamela Mountbatten's speculation about metal fatigue, he was directly awestruck by this little girl. Respect.

"I believe that the era of the jet airliner is bound to come, and many powerful countries are investing in research." Pamela Mountbatten said with a hint of hope, "The British Empire cannot let the opportunity slip away again."
