According to the usual response method, the first step is to raise funds to fight this run. First, we declare that nothing happened.

The emergence of the    dollar crisis must not be known to the citizens at the beginning, otherwise it will cause panic, and once it spreads to all parts of the world, it will only make the dollar crisis more unstoppable.

"Once the gold reserves increase, will there be appreciation pressure on the pound? You must know that our gold reserves in the UK also have more than 5,000 tons. If this time is successful, there may be an old incident of the franc two years ago, and the appreciation pressure will increase. increased trade pressure."

  Alan Wilson doesn't think that spending a fortune in gold is a good thing without harm. Everything has two sides. The problems caused by the appreciation of the franc in France are not very far in the past.

Currency appreciation is related to many things, such as industrial-scale industrial quality, gold reserves and even political stability. Now the situation in the UK is not bad, but it is still unavoidable. The Ministry of Finance has discussed the devaluation of the pound before. If this time the run forces the United States to bow, the pressure for appreciation will come.

   "According to Keynesianism, once private demand is not strong, the country should rise to the top. If the appreciation of the pound leads to a decline in the competitiveness of British products, maybe we should make some plans." Frank nodded slightly, which is also the consensus of the post-war economics community.

   "Keynesianism!" Alan Wilson pondered for a while, "There are two paths, foreign investment and industrial production. It seems that we can think about it and invest more in the military industry."

   In fact, during the Harold Wilson period, the UK faced devaluation pressure. What was the response plan of the Labour government? Nationalization, currency devaluation, cutting military spending, etc. And if there is pressure to appreciate the pound, for example, to find a way to resolve it, Alan Wilson is ignorant and unfortunate enough to think of the arms race.

How can I say that, excluding Malaya, as well as Rhodesia, which is dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry, and Newfoundland, which is mainly in the gaming industry, the mainland is also equivalent to a quarter of the superpower level, and the British pound area is counted. It has the influence of one-third of the superpowers, and the specific data cannot be calculated by adding and subtracting so simply, but the foundation is still very good.

"The Royal Navy needs the upgrading of auxiliary ships, the Royal Air Force needs a new generation of fighter jets, and the Chieftain tank is also struggling to face the Warsaw Pact armored group." Alan Wilson tilted his head and asked, "How about investing in the military industry to resolve the pressure of appreciation? Maybe We do this first, and then there will be a turnaround.”

   "Looking at it now, Bangladesh should really intervene and invest to resolve the pressure of appreciation." Alan Wilson thought about it and felt that the third India-Pakistan war could also be an opportunity. It is a good thing that 60 million Bangladeshis are included in the British sphere of influence.

  In the period of British India, the Kolkata Industrial Zone was the textile center of the British Empire. In the 21st century, Bangladesh still relies on the textile industry for food.

   It is very simple. The industrial revolution started from the textile industry. It is not difficult for any country to get started with the textile industry. The start-up of the late-developing countries will choose the textile industry. Japan is, South Korea is, a big country is also, Vietnam is also.

For example, Bangladesh relied on the textile industry in the 19th century, and the 21st century is also a place for the textile industry. In fact, there are many people there. Not all countries open books for the sake of the stars and the sea. Most countries are to fill their stomachs, and the textile industry is perfect. In line with the category of filling the stomach.

  Even in the current kingdom of Egypt, the import substitution of development is also centered on the textile industry. It is a labor-intensive industry, and the demand is greatly eliminated quickly, and it is an excellent industry for arranging employment.

Generally, the most direct consequence of intervening in the war is the hostility of the local people, but if it is an India-Pakistan war, first of all, the Indian side and the Bangladeshis in East Pakistan are not the same religion, while the Pakistani government army is the same religion but suppresses the national consciousness of the Bangladeshis. , the Bangladeshis in these two countries will definitely not have much favoritism.

   This reduces the risk of the UK picking peaches to almost nothing, and there will be no scenes of the US in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

To offend the local residents, India has already replaced Pakistan with the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom only needs to intervene in the appearance of a mighty and civilized teacher. Of course, this must first be guaranteed. It must scare India and let it Don't act rashly.

   Nixon made a transoceanic call to Harold Wilson, hoping that Harold Wilson, in the name of the Prime Minister, would play an important role in maintaining the international financial order, such as taking out the UK's gold reserves to top it off.

  Harold Wilson attaches great importance to the request of the President of the United States, and specially invited the Chancellor of the Exchequer James Callahan to discuss this matter, "Once the gold reserves are used to help the United States, it will bring inflation."

  The currencies of various countries are linked to gold. Once the UK releases its gold reserves, this may not be a problem of the US dollar, but will become a problem of the US dollar and the British pound.

Alan Wilson then arrived, and after listening to the discussion between the UK's No. 1 and No. 2, he said with embarrassment, "We don't even know who we are dealing with. In fact, many British banks were involved in this run. , even if we stop the banks from doing this, we cannot stop the Germans, the Swiss, the Belgians, the Austrians, the Dutch, etc.”

   To be honest, in the era of Bretton Woods, European countries still had the ability to resist the United States, and France alone could make the United States feel very uncomfortable. Not to mention that Germany has driven far more countries than France. If the United Kingdom must stand firmly by the United States? It's just one more body...

"To be honest, no one has such prestige and can stop the banks of various countries at this time." Alan Wilson said with a wry smile, "This is a capital flow of tens of billions of billions of dollars, no one can stand in the front, no matter what. President or Prime Minister

  This chapter is not over, please click to continue reading! Page 1/2 pages in total will be easily crushed. "

   Alan Wilson has no choice. He is now going to tell the participants in the UK to stop. There are police outside, and they may be shot in the back, and this is not the UK’s own problem, but also other European countries.

"We can't stop anything, but if we try to stop it and fail to stop it in the end, it can still be done." Alan Wilson thought about it, "For example, the Prime Minister made a speech in the House of Commons noting that the economy is overheating, It means that the government is ready to take action.”

  Ha Zhongtang can do this now. Anyway, he is usually a Soviet spy in the eyes of many people. At this time, don't think about maintaining the special relationship between Britain and the United States.

  Can the U.S.’s gold reserves of less than 20 billion be able to withstand the next big sell-off?

   Potential selling of bonds, let alone the United Kingdom, even if the gold that has been mined in the world is added together, it is impossible to equalize. Now whoever thinks that the United Kingdom can stop anything, it is a traitor.

   But a day later, Washington notified US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger that he was going to visit London, expressing that the US hopes that the IQ of the UK will not be online.

   "What is this? Are the U.S. troops retreating to fire flares on the British positions?" Alan Wilson muttered after listening to the Foreign Ministry's briefing, but even so, he couldn't delay his get off work.

   Now the situation is very clear, this time the dollar crisis cannot be prevented by the forces on the earth, and the prevention is 100% buried.

   "What promises can Kissinger bring this time?" Pamela Mountbatten didn't understand, but since Kissinger was coming, he would definitely make conditions.

"Maybe it's an empty promise that the United Kingdom and the United States jointly control the world financial order." Alan Wilson curled his lips. "The Bretton Woods system has its own problems. Could the United States be able to maintain it by giving some power? It's nothing more than two more years. This The realist secretary of state has a lot of tricks, but it's not impossible."

  Due to the memory of his past life, Kissinger was far more famous in Alan Wilson's mind than other US secretaries of state. He mainly accomplished two things, having a good talk with Saudi Arabia, and breaking the diplomatic ice between China and the United States. The reason for its high popularity is because of the latter.

   But most Americans did not consider the work of Nixon and Kissinger very decisive, as can be seen from the sharp decline in Kissinger's influence later.

   Kissinger was already considered by some to be the American representative of appeasement during the Reagan period. A certain big country thinks that I deserve a lot of credit for defeating the Soviet Union, otherwise you won't be able to win~lightnovelpub.net~ Americans don't think so.

   However, in Alan Wilson's view, the failure of the Soviet Union must be the main reason for its own problems. Compared with this main reason, the external factors of any country are not the main reason.

This time, the emergency visit started directly when Kissinger landed in London. Unsurprisingly, Kissinger came to London with the sincerity of compromise. The Romans thought of the Greeks again. At the critical moment, instead of laughing at Britain's self-love, I hope that the UK can help diplomatically.

  Harold Wilson of course attached importance to Kissinger's visit, and expressed his willingness to work with the United States to resolve this crisis, at least that's what he said in front of Kissinger.

"Washington and London represent the world order. In fact, as long as the United Kingdom concentrates its strength and faces difficulties with the United States, I believe that the world order will not collapse." Kissinger said sincerely, "We even believe that the United Kingdom should Europe plays a bigger role, and now under the threat of the Soviet Union, it should strengthen its military power in Europe. In fact, it is not a bad thing to give up some unimportant places.”

"What? Without stating any conditions, Britain still wants to take the colony in?" Alan Wilson sneered after listening to Wake's report, "It's better to make it clear, I hope the British withdraw from the Middle East and make the protectorate of the Persian Gulf truly independent. , to give the United States all of Britain's influence in the Persian Gulf."
