British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1211: don't worry

It must be admitted that France’s strong solidarity with the United Kingdom played a big role in this Anglo-American summit meeting. There is no stronger France than in history, and the United Kingdom may not retreat so easily. .

To save France is to save Britain. This metaphor, which can be called a joke, will one day become a reality. At the end of World War II, Britain's resolute move to bring France into the permanent membership of the United Nations finally paid off at this moment.

After the United Kingdom and the United States issued a stinky and long joint communiqué with no content but something to say, the British delegation left Nassau and soon arrived in Paris, the capital of France.

The two old rulers began to report to the group to warm up again. Britain and France did not completely agree in their views on European affairs. But at least so far, the idea of ​​the so-called third-party forces has not given up.

Furthermore, this time the independent voice of Europe has helped the UK a lot, and it should come here if it is reasonable or reasonable.

The meeting between de Gaulle and Eden was also considered by the French to be a key step in European power. It would be even better if de Gaulle did not mention the status of Quebec in this meeting.

Since the founding of the Fifth Republic, some influences have gradually emerged, not to mention making the United States at a loss what to do, and making it difficult for the United Kingdom to accept. The issue that makes Britain and the United States dislike it is the Quebec issue.

Charles de Gaulle's government came to power in France, which led to the silent revolution two years ago. In the economic field, the local government tried to increase French control of the Quebec economy. Before that, the Quebec economy was largely dominated by Anglo-Canadians and American investors.

Fortunately, de Gaulle did not go deep into this embarrassing issue for the United Kingdom. Of course, there is another issue that the United Kingdom does not like very much, such as criticizing the hegemony of the US dollar.

The UK certainly does not like the hegemony of the US dollar. If there is a choice, the UK will definitely hope that the pound will return to its original status. However, no matter how bad the US dollar hegemony is, it is better than the franc replacing the US dollar.

There is only one last issue that Eden is very willing to discuss in depth, and that is how Britain and France will distribute their industrial layout, get their own cake in the European Community, and establish a leading role for European countries.

Although Eden is interested in this issue, the French proposition is not to be accepted in its entirety. Because France is also a competitor of the United Kingdom in many industries. All in all, at the Nassau Conference, the perception of France was not bad, but it was quickly lost in Paris.

Alan Wilson has nothing to say, he is actually very interested in the dollar hegemony that de Gaulle said. But you can't declare this idea, otherwise the reliability will be questioned.

He remembered that the first to blow the horn of attack against the Breston Forest system was the French.

The U.S. dollar is not printed casually in this era. The Breston Woods system is simple to say, that is, the U.S. dollar is pegged to gold, and other currencies are pegged to the U.S. dollar. There is no such thing as a floating exchange rate, but a fixed exchange rate. The proportion of death.

Although the U.S. dollar is the global currency in name, in fact other currencies also have a strong circulation capacity. Because he must have gold behind him. In fact, everyone is still using gold as the standard for transactions.

Under the Breston Forest system, debt is really a big deal, and debt is real money. After the war, you can see how Britain was out of breath under the pressure of debt. The United States also attaches great importance to the trade deficit, and is afraid that the gold in its hands will flow out.

Because of this, when Kennedy said that he would use the gold reserves to turn the British pound into waste paper, Alan Wilson evaluated this threat as a suicide move. If Kennedy did this, he would definitely die a miserable death.

Since the U.S. dollar is essentially backed by gold, the following operations can be performed to withdraw the gold stored in the United States. Use gold to issue bonds and raise funds to US dollars. There are far more dollars in the world than gold, and the gold reserves in the United States are only for credit.

The unit price of gold on the market must be higher than the price offered by the Americans, which is thirty-five dollars an ounce. Especially after the start of the Vietnam War, after the United States issued more dollars, the ratio of the dollar to gold was even more disparity.

The actual U.S. dollar is not as valuable as the Breston Woods system stipulates, so the following operations can be carried out: issue bonds, raise U.S. dollars, then buy gold, and after buying gold, issue bonds with gold as collateral for refinancing. This is endless, and the gold reserves of the United States will not be able to bear it if this continues.

When the Breston Forest system was established, Keynes, as the negotiator of the United Kingdom, said that the system was unsustainable and wanted to replace gold with bulk raw materials.

It's just that the bulk raw materials were under the control of the United Kingdom at that time, and the United States would never agree.

"Many of de Gaulle's opinions have completely wiped out the goodwill we had just raised." Rabo Butler said to Alan Wilson very distressed, "He even said that he would establish diplomatic relations with China."

"This is an unreasonable act of betrayal." Alan Wilson's expression changed suddenly. "This will break the fact that the United Kingdom monopolizes the trade channel of the world's most populous country through Xiangjiang. It cannot be tolerated. This is harming the national strength of European countries."

On some issues, Britain can also be a European country. "We must try our best to prevent France's very rash actions and clearly inform the de Gaulle government of the seriousness of this matter."

Alan Wilson told Rabo Butler that this was a clear undercutting of the UK and was outrageous.

Rabo Butler also agreed, "It is indeed necessary to take a tough stance against France on this issue. By the way, Allen, where are you going?"

Of course, with the two female presidents on the rocket! Thinking of this in his heart, Alan Wilson replied seriously, "I have been physically affected by flying, so I usually need to take a break when I reach my destination. I have always stayed at the Windsor Castle Hotel."

As for the location of the Windsor Castle Hotel, opposite to the headquarters building of Woodpecker Films, this is also very reasonable from the perspective of sufficient source of tourists, and it can also receive some well-known guests, which will open up the hotel's brand name.

Rabo Butler nodded and approved the explanation of the executive deputy minister. After the release of the Anglo-French joint communiqué calling on the United States to increase the size of the US military in Germany, this visit came to an end.

Britain got nothing, that's ok, America got nothing, that's ok, both have a bright future, moving forward hand in hand.

"This is a world of reconciliation, let us look to the future and seek common ground while reserving differences..."

Alan Wilson, who had sequelae of flying, used practical actions to prove that the so-called sequelae were mainly caused by Schrödinger. After getting off the plane, he went straight to Vivien Leigh's apartment, practicing a combination of public and private.

Skillfully unscrewed the door, accurately captured the sound from the bathroom, took off the disguise and rushed in with ease.

In the entire bathroom, there were only two people looking at each other. Marilyn Monroe stared at the intruder, her body was as motionless as a sculpture, which was very embarrassing, time passed by inadvertently...

"Let Vivienne know, it depends on how you explain it." Marilyn Monroe frightened the man who had just gotten closer.

"Then what should I do? Should I say sorry, I thought she was inside?" Alan Wilson said with an afterthought, "Although it was a mistake, I don't seem to feel regretful."

What happened to Kennedy's woman, don't ask, it's the special relationship between Britain and the United States. It is incumbent to take care of the affairs of the allies. Now it's just an obligation ahead of time.

"This time I'm negotiating with Kennedy." Alan Wilson couldn't wait to advertise himself as a winner. It shows that he has made the United States ashamed.

"What are you talking to me about?" Marilyn Monroe didn't seem to care about this matter. After the birthday song incident, she knew that she could not drive Jacqueline away, and the enthusiasm of the **** goddess was not unlimited.

"Don't you think I'm very powerful." Alan Wilson asked seriously, "Even if he is the president, the president of the most powerful country in the world, he doesn't just do whatever he wants."

"Are you good?" Marilyn Monroe rolled her eyes and praised, "You are indeed better than him, for a long time..."

This kind of praise is very ecstatic. Seeing the dancing man, a smile flashed in Marilyn Monroe's eyes.

She has always believed that a girl who pursues equality between men and women is just a girl who lacks ambition.

"Do you want me to keep it a secret from Vivian?" Marilyn Monroe asked after putting on her clothes, glancing at the man who was doing the same thing.

"To be honest, I don't really care. It would be best if I can not disturb her mood." Alan Wilson said in a soft tone~lightnovelpub.net~ The executive deputy chief spoke so hard, at this time It is not when there are many people outside that we must not lose the initiative.

"That's really surprising. I don't know how you made Vivienne fall in love with you." Marilyn Monroe was a little surprised. Hollywood is a big dye tank, but she was sure that Vivien Leigh was not a casual woman, but to such a The man is dead set.

Maybe living with a man younger than that, that's it? Marilyn Monroe pondered this question.

"I suggest to Ms. Monroe, don't go back to the United States. Look at the situation." Alan Wilson said, "Recently, the British media's manipulation of public opinion on you and Kennedy may have some influence. I apologize .”

"This apology is not very sincere, but it's better than nothing." Marilyn Monroe said with her red lips lightly.

Don't look at Alan Wilson looking so tough, but he is actually thinking about how to repair the relationship with the Kennedy family.

Still the old way, through McCarthy and Kennedy’s younger brother’s connections, he emphasized his involuntary difficulties in this meeting. The role of pretending to be the big brother is over, and the role of outsiders has begun.
