Chapter 257 American Guests

It was Alan Wilson who wanted to see more of this world. If he had not dug up the Golden Temple, even if he knew that the benefits behind it were greater, he would not have given the two hundred thousand dollars to Vivien Leigh without blinking an eye.

.

Take British India as an example. Although the rupee and the US dollar are both currencies, the US dollar can be exchanged for gold. Whether the rupee can be sold for gold depends on the mood.

Since the drought broke out, the Assistant Commissioner, who has a hobby of collecting, has found that it seems to be getting harder and harder to buy gold with rupees, and his suitcase is not even full.

If two hundred thousand dollars were placed in front of Alan Wilson, maybe he would regret it, but he wouldn't have seen the real thing.

The development of derivatives in the United States has become very mature in later generations, and the revenue of film and television derivatives has exceeded twice the box office, fully exploring the box office of super IP and entering its peak period, and IP seeks to be monetized through multiple channels.

The success of the six major Hollywood film companies is not only due to their high-quality IP, but also to their multi-channel monetization model.

Hollywood's animation derivatives market often starts promoting movies through various marketing methods before they are released, so even if female stars have no works currently released, they can still make money through derivatives.

Being the first to eat something when no one is paying attention is of course very risky, but after success, as a pioneer, the rewards are also unimaginable.

Vivien Leigh read the telegrams sent by readers with gusto. It must be admitted that Alan Wilson was definitely a role model in helping others. He almost sacrificed everything to help the people around him. However, he was willing to be poor and work as a civil servant in the colonies.

This time, the concept of derivatives was used to point out the future for Vivien Leigh, which moved the hearts of British treasures.

"Is it a telegram from Oliver?" When Katharine Hepburn came down from upstairs, she happened to see Vivien Leigh curled up on the sofa, holding the telegram and giggling. She joked before anyone arrived.

Vivien Leigh turned back suddenly, as if she was startled. After hearing Katharine Hepburn's words, her embarrassment flashed away and she forced a smile, "Oh, no, he is my... good brother."

Vivien Leigh's tightness made Katharine Hepburn doubt that there would be a marriage change. She had traveled all the way to England to attend Vivien Leigh's wedding, and the loving scene was not fake.

Katherine Hepburn, who had doubts in her heart, did not ask her doubts because of their friendship. She asked as if there was nothing unusual, "Is that the boy who works as a civil servant? Mr. Derek said that he would give him two hundred thousand

As for the US dollar benefit fee, this is not a small sum, and ordinary people will not earn so much in their lifetime."

Katherine Hepburn's unintentional words made Vivien Leigh, who had just been hit with two hundred thousand dollars, agree with her heart. However, she almost showed her flaws just now. Now she can only use her Oscar acting skills and pretend to be indifferent.

However, showing off her Oscar-winning acting skills in front of Katharine Hepburn is simply a trick. She is the current ceiling for actresses. The more Vivien Leigh does this, the more certain her suspicions become.

"That idiot just likes to be a civil servant and probably has no idea about money." Vivien Leigh couldn't help but mention Alan Wilson. She felt relieved as soon as she said it. Just listening to other people's words was too much for her. "It's a pity that her brain is

There are so many wonderful ideas in it.”

"Maybe it's because they have little knowledge. Most civil servants are unknown. Once they experience fame, it may be different." While speaking, Katharine Hepburn looked at Vivien Leigh's expression with a hidden look.

"Not famous? He is the most famous civil servant in the British Empire." Vivien Leigh couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering, revealing the famous photo of Alan Wilson saving French women on the streets of Paris.

It was even a famous scene that could be used in textbooks, and it was widely known in the UK.

"Such a thing actually exists." Katharine Hepburn couldn't help but smile when she heard this, and exclaimed, "Is it so famous?"

"It's not less famous than me at all." Vivien Leigh said with a smile. "The most important thing is that he doesn't seem to know about it. He only stayed in Europe for a few months and then returned to British India."

Before Katharine Hepburn could ask further questions, Vivien Leigh told all about the derivatives plan mentioned by Alan Wilson, saying that it was a good opportunity to make money. Although the female stars involved were already financially free, who would object to the money?

You can try how to cash in on the current craze. For celebrities like them, they have seen many popular and outdated ones, and they all cherish the current popularity.

All industries are the same. Today's society is constantly growing and progressing. However, some entrepreneurs are relatively passive.

They believe that as long as the new projects developed have actual profits, they can consider that the most difficult and dangerous period has passed, and they have overcome debt repayment and all the worries caused by starting a business.

At this point, it can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai. Now that the business has entered the stage of horizontal flight, there is really no need to expand, because even if it encounters one or two crises, the company will not collapse, so just rest assured, sit still and comfortably

Already.

At this point, Hollywood female stars feel the sense of crisis even more than American entrepreneurs.

There is a law that is universal in the film industry, and Hollywood is no exception, that is, it is the male actors who carry the box office. Even when female stars are the most famous, they are in the sky compared to the equally famous male actors.

.

When Vivien Leigh was filming Gone with the Wind, her salary was 25,000 US dollars, so she was shocked when Derek asked him for a salary of 200,000 US dollars. Her co-star in Gone with the Wind was paid a million dollars, so she would never pay 200,000 US dollars.

Thousands of dollars showed shock.

Because of this, female celebrities must expand their market and must agree to various conditions to maintain their popularity.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Even if it is not for herself, Vivien Leigh also wants to help others to gain a foothold in the fiercely competitive Hollywood.

At New Delhi Airport, as the DC-3 passenger plane slowly landed, Morgan Slater's capable team finally arrived in New Delhi, perfectly embodying the efficiency of capitalism.

The world passenger aircraft market in this era was also in the hands of the Americans, just like in later generations. In fact, the emergence of the Comet airliner itself was a challenge to the order of the world aviation market.

The DC-3 was launched in 1935. The DC-3 could carry 30 passengers. It could cross the east and west coasts of the United States with just one refueling en route. It was also equipped with an in-flight kitchen that appeared for the first time on an airplane, and could fly in the air.

The provision of beds in the cabin brought a revolutionary breakthrough to commercial flight.

Due to its superior performance, DC-3 has been purchased in large quantities by airlines around the world.

By the eve of World War II, more than 90% of countries around the world used DC-3 aircraft for air travel. DC-3 has more stable performance, lower operating costs, and is easy to maintain. The military version is the famous C-47 military

Transport aircraft.

In fact, if you want to come to British India, you can arrive very quickly, but there are people who don't like flying and prefer to take a boat, such as Alan Wilson and General Mountbatten. That's another problem. He doesn't want to come at all.

In this regard, the happy civil servant who is immersed in heavy work has no idea how busy Alan Wilson is, working hard for the welfare of hundreds of millions of people in the subcontinent and never getting tired of it.

The business elites from outside the subcontinent are not in a hurry, but are now visiting the two urban areas of Delhi. Comparing the differences between New Delhi and Delhi, they can gain a closer understanding of British India.

"The climate here is just like Nevada." Several business elites were deeply impressed by the weather in New Delhi. New Delhi itself is an inland city, and the hot weather is the kind of heat that is not mixed with any other factors.

Both Shanghai and Manila are coastal cities, and the heat and heat are different. After walking around with business elites representing Chase Bank, we found a place to live.

Let’s take a rest after the long journey. As for the question of whether there are prostitutes in this city, we will look for them tomorrow! It’s not like there are no members who are interested in the urban area of ​​Delhi and want to find the excitement of exotic locales.

After two days of ignorance, Alan Wilson had to put down his work and go deal with the incident about a group of Americans who were in trouble in New Delhi.

On this occasion, the two parties met, and the matter was immediately settled. Allen Wilson was also left behind. Wilkins introduced himself, "I am the manager of Chase Bank of Manila. I am very happy to meet Mr. Allen.

You are younger than I thought."

"Why can't we avoid meeting by causing trouble?" Alan Wilson had already known by telegram that a group of bastards with ulterior motives for British India's precious mineral resources were coming, but still couldn't understand the method.

"Because we are really in trouble and have to ask the Governor's Mansion for help." Wilkins looked embarrassed and turned to glare at a member behind him. He actually molested someone else's wife, which was simply an embarrassment to Chase Bank.

"Oh?" Alan Wilson's face turned cloudy. He still wanted to find a chance to appease the expatriate couple, "They look very much like the Americans in my impression."

"Don't take offense, Mr. Allen, it's just a misunderstanding." Wilkins quickly apologized, "We are willing to make some compensation. Of course, such a small matter is not worth discussing too much. Aren't we going to negotiate a big deal? It belongs to us.

A big deal between.”

"Ah!" Alan Wilson opened his mouth and nodded. If he could see his expression now, he would be shocked. How could he open such a gluttonous mouth? "In this case, I will temporarily say that we are special people in Britain and the United States.

Let’s contribute to the relationship and welcome tourists from afar.”

"Thank you for the reception, Mr. Allen." Wilkins responded with a tacit smile.
