v2 Chapter 1154: Military exercises and invitations

"You still doubt the craftsmanship of the Royal Mint?" Makins couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene.

"I don't doubt the craftsmanship. I just like to smell it." Alan Wilson sniffed the gold medal in front of his nose and said with a smile, "It's the smell of money, it's so fascinating."

"Land Rover has just been listed. That's 500 million pounds!" Maggins shook his head, "You say now that you just like this smell? I really don't know what to say about you."

"Does that have anything to do with me... I and Pamela's finances are separate!" Alan Wilson explained after a slight pause when he said this, "This can clean up some of me personally, and I have taken a fancy to the wealth of the Mountbatten family suspicion."

Overall, the craftsmanship of the Royal Mint is undeniable, and the quality of this batch of medals is very high.

In fact, not only the quality, but also the value is very high. The athletes who participated in the Commonwealth Games this time definitely earned it.

Except that the gold medal is not made of pure gold, but is plated with silver, there is absolutely no problem with the fineness of the silver and bronze medals.

The current Olympic gold medal is twenty times heavier than that of the Stockholm Olympic Games fifty years ago. If it is still made of pure gold like it was back then, it will be a big loss to hold an Olympic Games.

The medals of this Commonwealth Games were sponsored by Pamela Mountbatten with silver. Although it is not gold, it is also full of sincerity.

Makins can also see that Alan Wilson attaches great importance to the Commonwealth Games. "You seem to have completely different views on Malaya and India. You have obviously served in both places."

"I don't need to care about such a powerful country." Alan Wilson flicked the gold medal with his fingers, and put it back intact. "This time, it is best to increase the cohesion of the Commonwealth of Nations. I have invited independent For those who are not yet independent, participate with the protectorate. The items are also the same as the Olympic Games, and there may be a little more.”

"Including the Socialist Movement project?" Maggins asked with a frown. As for making it so big?

"Including!" Alan Wilson nodded. The so-called socialist sports project refers to the projects that the Soviet Union is very good at in the American population, such as weightlifting, gymnastics, and fencing.

If you take a closer look, you can see that this is also an item that a certain big country is good at decades later. The status of the Soviet Union in today's weightlifting field is similar to that of a certain big country in later generations. In fact, decades later, weightlifting is equally strong in Eastern Europe. After all, there are differences in race. Among heavyweight weightlifting, the gold medal is still dominated by athletes from the Caucasus region.

Because of the proficiency in these projects, the United States collectively referred to these projects as socialist movement projects. Fortunately, it is not the Winter Olympics, otherwise figure skating and ice hockey would be called so.

Especially ice hockey, if a person does not live long and is an ice hockey fan, it is very likely that the Soviet Union will continue to win championships in the next few decades.

"There are also boxing, shooting, cricket, yes, there are also martial arts, badminton, and table tennis." good one.

As for the promotion of martial arts, let alone the false promotion of martial arts, all kinds of masters of southern boxing and northern legs, and the real promotion of martial arts, the permanent undersecretary of the Foreign Office of the British Empire.

However, martial arts events are limited to routine performances, and there is no battle, otherwise it is too similar to boxing events.

And to be honest, when martial arts are really fought, they are all kinds of boxing. During the Pao Dang period, there was a martial arts confrontation between the North and the South, and the fights were really all kinds of **** punches, with no aesthetic feeling at all. In the end, the southern boxers lost with a record of ten fights, one draw and nine losses.

This result fully proves why there are heavy weights in confrontation events, and why kicks are more powerful than boxing.

So after full consideration, to leave a way out for the future Xiangjiang films, the competition should not be held. It is very good as a performance event.

Sailing events are reserved for athletes from the UK, as well as athletes from Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and Newfoundland. After all, at the current economic level, other places do not have the economic conditions to make money in sailing events.

After introducing a round of projects for Maggins, Alan Wilson asked if he was interested in contributing to Newfoundland’s income generation. Makins directly asked, "Do you manipulate the game?"

"That's not true. This Commonwealth Games is determined to be transparent and clean!" Alan Wilson continued. There is an advantage, the robe project, and British Kenya is participating."

"Although black people are good at boxing, they haven't undergone systematic training. They should not be the opponents of teams like Newfoundland. Even if they don't have enough nutrition, they can't realize their potential."

When Makins heard his friend mentioning the sports meeting, he was eloquent, and at a glance, he knew that he was absolutely intentional, "The sports you left for Hong Kong, Malaya, and the Asian Commonwealth countries are small ball games and cricket? "

"That's right, it's a grand event of unity, and everyone's interests are shared." Alan Wilson replied with a smile, "Actually, it doesn't matter who ranks first, the most important thing is that everyone is happy."

"It's thoughtful, whether Pakistan and India will play cricket. I heard that the popularity of cricket in the local area is very high." The two walked and chatted, and walked out of the Mint in a while.

"If we cancel cricket and replace it with football, I don't think it will delay Britain's gold medal." Alan Wilson suddenly had an idea, what if China and India decide the outcome with football? Who will prevail? Really a difficult question.

"But you said, which of the three local teams is more promising?" Maggins was completely aroused, and the discussion between the two became more and more heated.

"I don't know, it's the England team in theory, but there are accidents in football." Alan Wilson is not a senior fan, and he is out of tune with the average British.

Maggins was so surprised that he almost doubted whether his friend was British.

Alan Wilson has been sending out invitations recently, regarding the Commonwealth Games as a stage to showcase the achievements of Malaya's development, especially the invitation to India, which is absolutely affectionate. It directly inflates India's treatment, and people who don't know think that Britain is dealing with a superpower.

In terms of sponsorship, the Mountbatten Group is naturally the first to bear the brunt, together with the four Hong Kong family companies including Swire Group and Jardine Group, to ensure the maximum benefit.

The colonial government of Malaya temporarily liberalized the lottery industry, stimulating the most primitive gambling desire. As for the representatives present, Princess Margaret, on behalf of the royal family, the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, all confirmed to attend, which can be described as extremely important.

He even asked Norman Brook to see if the Supreme Authority was interested, to rest and relax. Maybe you can also see the craftsmanship of oriental carpenters, and be inspired by the cabinet secretary's carpentry hobby.

The supreme authority has now discovered that Alan Wilson is very concerned about this sports meeting, so he couldn't help joking, "If something goes wrong in this sports meeting, you will be very sad."

"Probably not, my lord, Malaya implements the Qing law." Alan Wilson squinted his eyes and said, "This law is relatively strict, so I made a bunch of management regulations to prevent local residents from touching it." This kind of punishment. But when I am concentrating on doing one thing, if someone comes out to make trouble, the law of the Qing Dynasty can't be mobilized."

"For example?" Norman Brook unscrewed the cup and asked after taking a sip of water.

"For example, the law of continuous sitting!" Alan Wilson introduced this set of landmark bills since Shang Yang's reform.

"It's really scary enough." Norman Brook let out a long breath, and then suddenly asked, "The Supreme Court discussed the abolition of the death penalty before, but now I won't mention it. Does it have anything to do with you?"

Since Norman Brook asked this, he already had doubts in his heart. Of course, he didn't want to give any guidance, but just wanted to ask Alan Wilson what he thought.

"It's just out of a simple sense of justice. In principle, it can not be implemented, but if it is abolished, if the effect is not good, we will not be able to bring the bill back. This is the same as the extension of maternity leave. If it does not have a positive effect, think It’s hard to go back to where we started.”

Although the legal circle is detached, it is actually just a small closed circle. The law is high above and closed to ordinary citizens, which is why the abolitionists in many countries can get things done.

But how to put it, as long as you can get in touch with this circle, it is not too difficult to stop it. The Supreme Court is not all judges, there are also civil servants, and they also count on Whitehall to pay their salaries. What's more, in the free world, there is nothing that money can't settle.

Separation of the three powers is useless in the face of capital~lightnovelpub.net~ Not to mention the three powers, if it is divided into one hundred powers, it is useless or useless.

The time when India received the invitation letter from the Commonwealth was at the same time as the British Royal Navy's Indo-Pacific military exercise on the east and west sides, the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea.

This time, New Delhi was not notified of the Indo-Pacific military exercise. After learning the news, it was unavoidable to be a little shocked.

This is even more so as the follow-up news comes. I heard that there will be an amphibious landing exercise, which will be carried out on the land of Goa. This made many members of the National Congress feel a slight threat.

At this time, the invitation letter with soft words and full of respect was handed over to Nehru.

This is not to show courtesy first and then soldiers. Britain understands that India does not know what to do first before soldiers. It must show its strength first, and it is talking about business. Otherwise, Indians will only think that you are afraid of him.

"The British side mainly has two things to do, repeating the previous invitation, and hoping that India will talk to the Portuguese through the Games in Kuala Lumpur. From this point of view, the Indo-Pacific military exercise this time is a warning from the UK and Portugal at the same time. people."
