Chapter 752: All Actors
“Then I wonder, how does Mr. Commissioner thank us for our help.” Hedy Lamarr’s eyes rippled with light, clearly displaying an appearance of taking advantage of the opportunity to seek thanks.
Even if it was already very familiar, Allen Wilson was still somewhat unable to withstand this kind of gaze, Hedy Lamarr’s appearance is really not something that ordinary people can carry, Greta Garbo’s appearance, it looks very stern, if those carvings in ancient Greece were made based on real people, Greta Garbo’s angular face is the most consistent with that kind of beauty, as she gets older, this sense of sternness has not diminished.
It is on the basis of this comparison that people have commented on Greta Garbo’s divine appearance. Hedy Lamarr, though not as overpowering as the former’s appearance, was more impeccable.
As Hedy Lamarr opened her mouth, Ingrid Bergman joined in, not that the two had to take any advantage of Alan Wilson, but they were happy to see the man’s hands full.
“Honored ladies, I believe you also know a little bit about British Malaya, the sunny beaches, the relaxation under the palm trees, and the azure waters should be considered impressive.” Alan Wilson said this and paused for a moment, seeing that several women were interested, and said in an uncertain tone, “If you are willing, you can purchase a few islands, and from now on the islands you purchase will be privately owned by you, but the sovereignty will still be in the hands of Britain, what do you think of this proposal?”
“I think that’s a proposal we can talk about!” Ingrid Bergman’s slightly wrinkled eyebrows stretched out and said with a smile, “Just and this price? ……”
“Let’s talk about what’s going on in the movie and television today, and we’ll talk about this in a few days.” Alan Wilson opened his mouth and prompted, now is not the time to talk about this matter, too many people are prone to cause unnecessary arguments.
After all, the people of the Malayan colonies, think that every inch of land belongs to them, of course only they themselves think so, Allen Wilson, the imperial commissioner, of course, think that at least for now, the sovereignty of the British colonies still belongs to the United Kingdom, there is no doubt about it.
Ingrid Bergman, both of whom knew something of the man’s habits, nodded imperceptibly in understanding and terminated the subject of the sale of the island.
The party wasn’t just white faces, there were also Chinese and Malay and Indian elites. The part of Indian origin, is Fei Wenli in reception, Fei Wenli that year, but the use of their own influence, to save British India in the midst of the fire, in the eyes of many people of Indian origin, is very appealing.
Allen Weir from coming together to go around, although he knows in his heart, the reputation of Indian rape on the British hegemony of public opinion can not be credited, but since there is a preconceived idea, or be careful a little better.
It was a good thing that these upper class people of Indian origin stopped short of being polite and treated the citizens of the colonial sovereign with some respect.
“Commissioner Wilson!” Seeing her man coming over, Vivienne’s smile grew noticeably, and her signature elf-like gaze swept over the princess behind the man with an equally polite nod.
“Not disturbing the lady, I see there’s a lot of activity over here.” Sweeping his eyes over a few of the San, Alan Wilson gave a lifetime greeting and continued his important work.
After all, Indians were only a single-digit percentage, Chinese and Malays had always been the focus of his work, and ostensibly had to be treated equally, even if there was a focus on the strength of the support, it could not be shown.
Even Princess Margaret, watching from the side, felt that her brother-in-law was indeed very tired, just like a clown throwing three balls in the circus, skillfully and skillfully maneuvering between several different ethnic groups.
After a while, Allen Wilson was all smiles as he walked from the Malay group to the Chinese group.
“Mr. Tian!” Alan Wilson opened his arms and hugged Tian Qianqiu, while also tilting his head to greet Mr. and Mrs. Su Yang, one heart and two minds did not leave any of them behind.
“Mr. Zhongtang, this is my second house.” Tian Qianqiu pulled a woman of two or eight years old and introduced her to Alan Wilson.
“So it’s the second wife, Mr. Tian congratulations.” Allen Wilson revealed a look that a man would understand, British Malaya was in principle allowed to marry more than one person, this was not illegal.
As to why it was in principle, because in principle the colonial government promoted monogamy, but of course it only stopped at promoting it.
It is not illegal to marry more than one wife, and this is mainly to advocate that most men can have one wife, and as for the rich and powerful who want to marry more than one wife, then they can be lenient.
After all, the upper class always have to have some privileges, more marriage has been considered not very harmful privileges. But also to ensure that most of the men can have their own spouse, otherwise the society will be very unstable, to know that over-energetic men can do anything.
More fortunately, Malaya is now sort of ahead of a lot of countries, at least in the context of Southeast Asia. In the event of a war in the neighborhood, an influx of foreigners would come in to wash away the gender imbalance.
“There’s nothing to congratulate, but Su Yang must be envious of me.” Tian Qianqiu was already completely different from a few years ago, sort of entering the midst of the role of a successful person, and didn’t forget to flirt with the Su Yang couple beside him.
“Mary and I have a good relationship.” Su Yang righteously expressed his loyalty to his Newfoundland daughter-in-law who was also present.
“That’s really good news.” Alan Wilson hypocritically responded to the paradigm of a Chinese-British marriage, although in his heart he did not feel that Su Yang was telling the truth.
This kind of thing may not be on the surface, but privately who knows, Su Yang wants to keep a few women outside, with his current position it’s too easy, but he should not let his wife know, to maintain the surface of marital harmony.
It was also because of this marriage that Su Yang was supported by the Newfoundland Foundation, otherwise how could he have risen to prominence so easily.
This banquet itself exists in life, there is a large group of actors with a halo in is right, but the guests who attended which acting and poor?
In addition to Allen Wilson other British officials, regardless of whether there is racism in the heart. But on the surface is absolutely not say out.
Alan Wilson strictly prohibited the use of language in Malaya to discriminate against the local community, which community is not allowed. Take himself for example, he had a Chinese name Ai Zhongtang, and likewise a pacifist name Ahmad Pasha, which he used to deal with the Malays.
He dare not say that he could remove all the verbal insults, but among the middle and senior officials, the situation was now much improved. After all, everyone knows that as soon as their top boss hears about such things, he tells them to raise their money ……
Always be fined they also can not stand, only a few hundred pounds a year salary, also does not withstand deductions, not to mention may also be sent to the Andaman Islands to preside over the maintenance of the naval base.
Looking at it now alone, British Malaya deserves to be a multicultural center with racial harmony and mutual respect. Although the folk are actually wary of each other, but so what, as long as there is no fight is harmony.
Alan Wilson’s earlier telegram to General Navarre talking about the conflict between the Chinese and the Malays was just a fake news, an ugly act used to imply the activation of Cambodian soldiers and to intensify the ethnic conflicts in South Vietnam.
Having expressed his rapprochement with all the representatives of the various ethnic groups, Alan Wilson returned to the group of actors with his sister-in-law, his gaze still lingering for a moment from Natsume and Kaoru Yachigusa.
Because just now, during the discussion on the topic of men, both Su Yang and Tian Qianqiu expressed that these two actors were beautiful.
“Has it started to converge and evolve so early like the rich people of Xiangjiang?” Alan Wilson muttered with a bitter smile.
Actors in Xiangjiang took pride in marrying into a rich family, that had a unique environment, the fundamental reason was because the ceiling in Xiangjiang was too low, and a rich man for the average person would be the best homecoming that could be found in perception.
Apart from Jackie Chan and a few others, many well-known actors and actresses are unable to rely on the Hong Kong market to earn big money.
Like the mainland actors are completely different, the mainland’s market is too big for the top actors, even if they don’t marry into a rich family, the top actors are still very successful people, Xiangjiang actors don’t have this environment.
However, this problem big brother does not say two brothers, Alan Wilson and the two big buyers, only to get the target is different, the presence of a few famous movie stars, and which one is a fish out of water, in addition to not long before the famous Marilyn Monroe.
Princess Margaret does not understand Chinese, or at this time certainly want to find a way to get rid of the two Asian actors, save confusing her brother-in-law.
In the film and television market, Alan Wilson still has a lot of things to ask for advice, to say that the person who has knowledge of the film market in Xiangjiang, has been to Xiangjiang a few times of Vivien Lei is considered one.
“Malaya’s cultural center does not include movies, this piece is to be left to Xiangjiang. Malaya just needs to be a good market. But yeah, I have some more ideas to say, it can make can be a sideways way to get a standardization of the type of movies in Xiangjiang. The two places should help each other, but I will talk to the Governor of Hong Kong when the time comes, movies with too much historical background will not be introduced in British Malaya.”
Alan Wilson was facetious to Vivien Lei, but he was well aware that stuffing private goods through movies and television was not the monopoly of a certain country, these things were common. Xiangjiang people’s knowledge of history is very shallow, Yongzheng can not be separated from the blood droplets, Qianlong will know that pick up girls began in Xiangjiang film and television, this kind of private goods to him would be very humiliating.
Furthermore, you a hard shot against the Qing Dynasty to restore the Ming Dynasty? Is it not appropriate to pass to Malaya as a colony? Alan Wilson can not help but make a fuss, it is not as if the matter of turning the corner and pointing the finger has not appeared before.
“I have some not understand!” Fei Wenli was uncertain, what exactly was her man thinking, she did not understand at all.
“On the bright side it’s about the Chinese themselves, on the dark side it’s a connotation of us in the UK. There’s nothing wrong with being defensive!” Alan Wilson raised an eyebrow, “The Chinese say smart or cunning, they very much like to do this kind of thing.”
