British Civil Servant

v1 Chapter 300: Divide the spoils first

"What do I need money to do, buy food? Buy it by the ton?" Alan Wilson took a sip of water and said, "That's a stupid question."

"Do you know how much a hundred million dollars is?" Ingrid Bergman repeated with a look of amazement. "That's one hundred million dollars."

"One-third of the tax in a normal year in British India, of course I know the value." Alan Wilson re-emphasized in a positive tone, the two women in front of the province really thought that he would not count.

"This topic ends here, money is far less than an opportunity to meet the public for me."

In fact, Alan Wilson didn't have a hundred million dollars, and he exchanged it for about 2.85 million ounces of gold, about 80 tons of gold. He definitely doesn't have this gold, and I don't know if his good brother Ali Khan in Hyderabad has it.

Of course, the U.S. dollar is not exactly the same as gold. The U.S. dollar on the market is definitely far more than the U.S. gold reserve.

Gold is just a metal that backs the credit of the dollar. The U.S. dollar can be exchanged for gold, but it cannot be exchanged indefinitely. Otherwise, how did the United States turn its face in the end?

But even if Ellen Wilson is sincere, Greta Garbo and Ingrid Bergman take this as sweet talk, can a man believe it? Two days later, the two had an answer to that question.

Vivien Leigh is back, and this time she has completed the West Coast trip to the same wide acclaim as the East Coast.

The Great British Treasure lived up to the expectations of the empire and stabilized the situation in British India. The centers of the east and west coasts were nothing more than Mumbai and Calcutta, and Vivien Leigh had already been there.

Even Vivien Leigh listened to the voices of some people in British India about independence. Of course, with the help of Alyssa, Vivien Leigh's answer was warm and decent.

"Sometimes the world is really unfair. Take the attitude towards independence as an example. The words of the Governor's Office are not fundamentally different from those of Vivien Leigh. Her words show genuine concern for Indians. When we say the same thing, we are hiding evil intentions and trying to divide India. conspiracy?"

After listening to Alyssa's report, Alan Wilson straightened his back, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and greeted the hundreds of millions of people in the subcontinent with anger.

"Yes, assistant, we treat these people very well." Alyssa agreed, "When I was in Mumbai, I heard that there was a dispute within the Congress Party, what happened."

"It's over, these Indians have become a climate." Alan Wilson shook his head slightly, "Speak and don't listen, listen and don't understand, understand and don't do, do and do wrong, wrong and don't admit, admit and don't. Change, change and refuse to accept it, and don’t say anything if you don’t agree, what should I do?”

"What do you mean?" Alyssa, who had discovered a new point of knowledge, didn't understand the meaning of her boss's words.

"It's nothing, I just think this sentence is very suitable for this kind of non-violent and non-cooperative soft confrontation." Alan Wilson Shi Shiran sighed and winked at Alyssa, "After these American actresses left, I was in The matter of New Delhi helping you to run the Hyderabad Commissioner should be kept secret until then."

Alyssa was overjoyed when she heard it. Isn't this what she was after, she said happily, "I will definitely seize this opportunity to benefit the local area and make some achievements."

"Your achievements must be seen by Your Majesty. That's how your achievements are. You must be seen by those who should see them." According to common sense, Aaron Wilson should talk to Alyssa about unspoken rules at this time, but although he is young, It is inevitable that I can't cope with it, so I can only give up this idea, temporarily give up...

Gandhi had already left New Delhi to call for reconciliation on the east coast of British India, while giving a speech showing the unity of the Congress party, and Alan Wilson even wondered if this was copying Vivien Leigh's line.

At this moment, a gentle old man, shirtless and barefoot, is walking on a muddy road in the Ganges delta in the upper reaches of the Bay of Bengal. He was short in stature, weighing at most fifty kilograms, his skin was tanned and oily, his arms seemed a little too long, and his two huge ears were slightly tilted to the sides.

The bamboo stick in his hand has been stabbed to pieces in the front, and a pair of bright glasses is hung around his neck by a gold ribbon. If he was talking to someone, it was easy to see the dentures with just a little attention. He was followed by several of his followers, one of the young females was his grandniece Manu. He is the Gandhi that people have long known.

This time, he is going to spend a month ascetic lobbying all over the Bay of Bengal, explaining the unity of the Congress party, and at the same time contributing to the maintenance of unity.

Gandhi was a fighter on many fronts, and it was only on the battlefield that he was at his best. He has many battlefields to focus on, and if the political battlefield is idle, he turns to other battles.

Rural economic construction, basic education for the people, popularization of the national language, welfare of women and children, and relief of untouchables are all things that he cannot finish. Compared with political movements, these undertakings are not inferior in significance.

A saint's consideration naturally has a saint's reason. A mortal like Alan Wilson can only deal with money full of copper smell. On the second day after Vivien Leigh came back, all the relevant personnel were there at lunch time, Alan Wilson was on the side. Eat and chat, the content of the chat is cents.

Regarding the proceeds of this trip for the country, not counting the $200,000 benefit fee that Derek promised earlier, and the 0.5% agency fee of $110.6 million, Derek also generously gave He put it together, two sums totaling $740,000.

It's probably Vivien Leigh's 25 times Gone with the Wind's remuneration. To put it bluntly, Vivien Leigh can't come up with the money at all. For ordinary people, $740,000 is already an unimaginable astronomical figure.

"Has Catherine called back? Has it arrived?" After having a full meal, Alan Wilson asked Vivien Leigh whether the money from Derek had arrived.

"Catherine has seen it, and the account has arrived." Vivien Leigh was a little lost, and now she still seems to be dreaming, such a large sum of money, this man will give it to her.

"You are all Vivienne's friends. Needless to say, many of you have reached the age where you should stop filming, at least not the most popular age for Hollywood studios. Of course, I believe that the experience of the ladies will make up for some deficiencies. Let Falling from the peak is a bit slower. But it's not a bad thing for the future."

"At present, including Vivian, you have a total of twelve people. The new Barbie company will use this money as the start-up capital. Except for Vivian and Ms. Heidi, it will take 2% of the total. shares."

When it came to this, Ellen Wilson pushed Vivien Leigh, who was still sleepwalking, "Ms. Heidi's frequency hopping patent is being processed in London, and I will pay for the transfer fee. Her share is higher, and it will occupy a hundred Five percent. The remaining seventy-five percent is yours."

This is how the shares of Barbie doll company are distributed. Alan Wilson said that this is to count the influence of these stars as capital, including not only those who came to British India, but also those who stayed in the United States, and none of them fell.

"Maybe there will be more shareholders of the company in the future. I hope that ladies and gentlemen, after you have no worries, you can help the latecomers a lot. You have been through such a difficult journey, if you can create a smooth road for the latecomers. Maybe you will become a successful film company in the future, be your own boss, and support yourself as the protagonist, so you won't be like this, and you won't make a smile on others for a scene."

Anything else can be considered nonsense, but Aaron Wilson's words went to the hearts of these women.

And it is not without opportunities. Alan Wilson remembers that many Hollywood film companies have faced the threat of bankruptcy, the most famous of which is the 20th Century Fox that almost went bankrupt because of a Cleopatra.

Cleopatra is the biggest investment in the history of Hollywood movies~lightnovelpub.net~ and also the most miserable costume drama. Twentieth Century Fox almost said goodbye to the world.

Even MGM, who is in full swing now, will also have a hard time because of the rise of TV. Maybe these female stars will really have a big movie company of their own in the future.

"I'm done!" Alan Wilson clapped his palm lightly and asked for his opinion, "Who is for and who is against?"

"You don't want anything?" Among the people in shock, Joan Crawford was the first to regain his senses. He stood up and leaned forward, putting his palm on Alan Wilson's forehead, and said strangely, "Don't burn."

"It really doesn't burn!" Alan Wilson didn't move, but his frowning frowned indicated that his current mood was indeed not optimistic. "Isn't any man so nice to you? You are all big stars."

"Yes, but it's not so easy." Bette Davis said with a complicated face. "You're not one of us. If you lose everything, you won't feel bad?"

"Let's talk about the loss." Alan Wilson laughed, stretched out his hand and pushed Vivien Leigh, still not enough sleepwalking?

Vivien Leigh woke up suddenly, and when she looked at Ellen Wilson, her eyes were shy and timid, which could almost melt people.

It's all for her, it must be! Vivien Leigh thought so in her heart, and she felt dizzy.

Greta Garbo blinked her almond eyes and muttered in a voice that only she could hear, "You guys!"

This is certainly not 100 million dollars, but 740,000 dollars is not a small number for any individual, and Alan Wilson does not seem to be a billionaire. With the touch of his lips, he will put this huge sum of money for everyone to develop their careers. already?

As for Vivien Leigh, Greta Garbo knew at a glance, and she didn't know how long she would be in a blank state. I might not be able to wake up today.
