British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1212: Into Whitehall

Vivien Leigh was overjoyed at the man's return, and her eyes were involuntarily drawn to him. She saw water droplets staying on the tip of his nose and upper lip, and suddenly she didn't feel cold anymore. Her right hand seemed to have a will of its own, reaching out to wipe a drop of water off his mouth. Her fingers lingered there, a strange warmth in the blood.

"Vivian." The man whispered, his lips moving under her palm. She was out of breath again, unable to speak...

"You're beautiful." Her hand reached for his chest as he leaned forward and she stood on tiptoe. He grabbed her shoulders with his fingers and pulled her closer. The kiss was light and tender and surprisingly beautiful. This was exactly the kiss she had imagined, but it was a pity that the time was too short.

Marilyn Monroe had a grimace on her face. It wasn't that she was dissatisfied with this man, and she had no right to be dissatisfied.

But seeing poor Tom being manipulated by the palm of his hand, I just can't help but want to expose the hypocrisy of the gentleman.

"Monroe is still here." Vivien Leigh finally stopped being obsessed with masculinity, "Are you here to deliver the script?"

script! Oh, the script, Alan Wilson remembered that he used a movie script to ask Vivien Leigh to trick Marilyn Monroe to London. Of course, this is actually just an excuse he used to hold Kennedy hostage. This Nassau meeting can be said to be useful or OK It's useless to say, because Dulles really told him about the relationship between men and women.

Just take it as useful, Alan Wilson has a quick brain. As an extremely professional filmmaker, he not only takes the queens on the rocket, he must use it to lull these queens.

There is no script for the time being, but he can act like it. "This is a very good script. I believe that once it is filmed, it can subvert the image of Ms. Monroe. It can be said to be of great benefit."

Before becoming the supreme authority, Alan Wilson may be the last time to write the script as a diplomat. He likes the movie The Truman World very much, so he decided so happily to copy it...

As for the role of Monroe, of course it is a change from the vase role of selling meat before, and the heroine who rescued Truman and told him the truth.

After expressing the general idea, Marilyn Monroe was really surprised, "Your imagination is very good. If you are in Hollywood, you must be a very good screenwriter."

"At most, I complain about my bad luck, and I have never doubted my talent." Alan Wilson put on a forced expression, "But obviously, from the perspective of benefiting society, the current career is still more suitable for me, and Not in the film industry."

Just like Hepburn, who shows people with a pure face, can play Tiffany's breakfast tailored for Marilyn Monroe, why can't Marilyn Monroe play The Truman World. Although it is a movie with a male protagonist, adding a little female protagonist as Bai Yueguang will not detract from the classics.

After all, it is a product of the peak era of Hollywood cultural hegemony, not a Marvel series that focuses on special effects. Alan Wilson believes that a good script will not be buried just because he copied it.

In this way, for the sake of the script, Marilyn Monroe decided to stay in the UK temporarily and prepare to shoot a movie in Europe.

Alan Wilson and Vivien Leigh found a house nearby for Marilyn Monroe, and the three went to visit together.

Marilyn Monroe was content, the front door was open and there was a warm fire in the living room. The room is filled with chairs and sofas, and there is even a grand piano. Looking through the door on the right of the living room, Qiaoqi saw a small library with books lining the walls. To the left was the dining room, with a large oak table surrounded by eight chairs, and beyond that was the kitchen.

"It's not bad. The climate in London is still different from that in the United States at this time of year." Alan Wilson also said with satisfaction, "I hope Ms. Monroe can feel at home. Of course, you can also live with Vivienne. Come live."

After all, he is a man of the same status as Vivien Leigh and her husband. When he came here, it was inconvenient for two women to live in the same house. It would be much more convenient to live separately. Anyway, the distance of sight is less than 200 feet, so it is convenient for two women to visit .

"What are you doing?" Marilyn Monroe looked puzzled, not knowing why this man left and returned.

"Give me the key to the house, it will be more convenient." Alan Wilson stated the purpose bluntly.

God knows how the man in front of me said this, Marilyn Monroe almost wanted to laugh, and then put the door key into Alan Wilson's hand, whispering, "You are really surprising. "

"Thank you!" Allen Wilson said to himself, shaking the door key, "I'm fine in terms of time management."

She was pushed upstairs directly by Alan Wilson. Before she could catch her breath, she was already sitting in a vat of hot water that smelled of roses, and the steam rose to her face, making her relax. There was no sound in the house, and she closed her eyes easily.

Valley still/span>Alan Wilson went to Whitehall to visit the supreme authority Norman Brooke and report the inside story of the Nassau talks this time.

Norman Brooke was very clear about the ins and outs of the Nassau talks, "Kennedy didn't achieve his goal, and he might not let it go. This is how people in politics are. If they lose, they will hold grudges, and if they win, they will counterattack. But this is against the government. The Americans will not do anything to you, after all, we follow the arrangements of politicians."

"Whenever I think of the United States, I bring up Judah and cry for grievances. This country is self-willed, treacherous, and very happy." Alan Wilson said in a long voice, "Every time the United States says that it wants the special relationship between Britain and the United States for the good of the United Kingdom, I feel that I felt like I was going to get stabbed in the back."

"Actually, I'm still a little worried about Kennedy." Norman Brook frowned, self-willed, treacherous, and overjoyed. It's all right to apply it to the United States. Because of this, think about what else the Americans will do if they don't achieve their goals. , "If I were Kennedy, if there was no trouble in Quebec, I might attack Newfoundland."

Alan Wilson nodded. It is indeed possible. From this point of view, after the de Gaulle government came to power in France, it led to the awakening of Quebec's self-awareness and really helped Britain.

After chatting about the Nassau meeting, Alan Wilson jokingly asked about Norman Brook's life recently.

"It's still the same recently. I chatted with Gatzke a few days ago." Norman Brook replied with a smile.

"The leader of the Labor Party is also very concerned about this Nassau meeting?" Alan Wilson is also very interested, wondering what the opposition party thinks about the Nassau meeting, "Do you think the Conservative Party is betraying the country?"

"Only our civil servants in the UK are really good for the country, and those parties are opposing for the sake of opposing." Norman Brook said, "As long as the interests of the UK are protected, it doesn't matter what method he uses. He can even be a Marxist."

"It's like when the Labor Party was in power, the Ministry of Education praised comprehensive quality education as being able to smooth out class differences. But when the Conservative Party came to power, they can change their praise for cheap, stable and efficient education. For the Labor Party, we say that selective education will lead to early family division. Explain to the Conservatives that selective education makes education ridiculously expensive."

"Which side should we be on?" Alan Wilson felt as if he understood something, but he didn't fully understand it.

"Stand on your own side. Existence makes sense, and everything lies in balance. This is the same as offshore balance. If you use it well, you will be an invincible weapon. If you don't use it well, you will bury us." Norman Brook said with a smile , "The essence of offshore balance is that the UK itself cannot be weak, just like Whitehall cannot be weak."

"The data can be diametrically opposed, and the conclusions can be contradictory, just like the ruling party and the opposition party, as well as the basic principles of Whitehall's operation." Norman Brooke said this, "Tomorrow is Christmas, and colleagues in Whitehall Let's meet, in another week, you will be leading Whitehall in a new position."

"Thinking of the future, it is inevitable to feel uneasy." Alan Wilson said with emotion.

"I've already bought a house in Perth." Norman Brooke said suddenly, "If you have any difficulties at that time, you can send me a telegram. It's actually not difficult. Isn't the overseas headquarters of the Mountbatten Group in Perth?" .”

On Christmas Day, December 25th, Alan Wilson came to No. 70 Whitehall as scheduled, and under the leadership of Norman Brooke, he met with colleagues who would join hands in the future.

With the Christmas reception, Norman Brook paved the way for Alan Wilson to become the secretary general of the cabinet. It has long been an open secret who the next cabinet secretary-general is, but he has not officially taken office, and everything is still subject to theoretical variables~lightnovelpub.net~ But Norman Brooke has received accurate information from Prime Minister Eden, After this Nassau meeting, the Prime Minister is very satisfied with the next cabinet secretary, and Alan Wilson's position is definitely not a problem.

At this moment, Alan Wilson is actually in a complicated mood. There will be fewer opportunities for business trips in the future, so he can't just run outside. It is not so easy to go to Stockholm, Bonn, and Paris. This is really a loss.

The position of cabinet secretary can be traced back to the role of chief advisor to successive monarchs in the Middle Ages.

The chief adviser of the monarch, although the name varies, but its responsibilities are essentially senior advisors to the monarch, coordinating government work, ensuring national security, preserving historical materials, and preventing the country from disintegrating from within.

The prime minister and his government who take office will bring a series of policies to be implemented, and the cabinet secretary must use his talents to ensure that the Cabinet Office, a national machine, plays a role, provides services for the prime minister and his government, and implements policies.

At the beginning of the new year, Norman Brook officially resigned, and Alan Wilson became the fourth cabinet secretary since Maurice Hankey, starting his own era.
