"I just have some basic concerns." Gerrard said that he was very willing to agree because of Alan Wilson's reputation as a lobbyist, but there may be some irresistible factors.
Alan Wilson knew very well what the irresistible factor was, and said that the next winner of the local Commonwealth Lottery in Newfoundland might be Gerald.
"Will such a lucky thing happen? Allen?" Most of the irresistible factors in Gerard's body have been reduced. The reliability index of the two sisters of the Heilman family is rising steadily.
"Who knows, there are always some lucky people in this world." Alan Wilson spread his hands and expressed his reverence for God with practical actions. While he was still staying in Europe, his biggest purpose was to help the Dragoons achieve their goals.
this wish.
Alan Wilson knew in his heart that Germany's banking industry would never develop in the direction of British and American banks. In some fields, there is indeed something called nationality. For example, Britain and the United States always produce trusts, and Germany and Japan produce Concern.
In the financial core, among developed countries, the United Kingdom and the United States are typical capital market-driven financial systems, which means that corporate financing is mainly conducted in the capital market, and the role of banks is more to help companies issue issuances in the capital market.
Financing products such as stocks and bonds.
Germany and Japan, on the other hand, have typical bank-driven financial systems. In such systems, companies not only rely on banks to provide loan financing, but also usually have very close relationships with banks.
In a sense, Gerald Edward was still very fond of British Malaya. He knew about the distribution methods of the Asian pound issuance, which were state-owned, private mixed and local banks.
As for the share of the local bank, the name is Sarawak Development Bank, Gerald Edward said that if he could be the executive vice president of Sarawak Development Bank at some time in the future?
"I never thought that British Malaya would have such an opportunity!" Alan Wilson agreed happily, "Why not? Officials like you, Gerald, should have more opportunities to benefit the public."
"Oh, there is such an opportunity." Gerald Edward understood, and then his face became serious, "Of course we all agree that for Britain, some old bankers have lagged behind the times, and the reliability of the Hellman family
It’s self-evident.”
"It can even be used as a standard case for women's rights." Alan Wilson said nonchalantly, "especially in Germany today."
After some exchanges, Gerald Edward and Alan Wilson both agreed and recognized the reliability of the Heilmann family.
For this reason, Gerald Edward made a promise that he would try his best to put the North Deutsche Bank, which was rooted in the British-occupied areas, into reliable hands.
Alan Wilson dealt with matters that he considered important, and McCarthy's "I am a Berliner" speech was accompanied by the launch of the air corridor. The Soviet Union regarded it as an offensive statement that confused right and wrong, and the war of words was heating up.
There is no one who should be responsible for the current situation in Germany. Splitting Germany into two halves was not a unilateral idea of the Soviet Union. Regardless of Stalin's attitude towards other European countries, for a long time, his attitude towards the German issue seemed
It has always been quite open.
Instead, it was changes in Western policy that triggered the de facto division of Germany. From the beginning, the Allies had differences on how to deal with postwar Germany. These differences existed not only between the Soviet Union and Western countries, but also among every Western government.
between.
The initial policy formulation was very chaotic. Although the harsh "Morgenthau Plan" aimed at deindustrializing Germany was abandoned, it still had an impact. Since then, Western countries' policies towards the German-occupied areas have undergone major changes, from punishment to
It became reconstruction.
The Marshall Plan was implemented for the reconstruction of Europe after the war. It not only represented this change, but also recorded this change. The Marshall Plan looked forward to the economic and political reconstruction of Europe and decided to implement an open policy and find markets.
And using the Truman Doctrine to prevent the development of communism and curb the Soviet Union's possible expansionist policies in Europe were very beneficial to the United States' new international role.
The United States calculated that the Soviet-occupied zone with a non-market economic system would reject this proposal. Therefore, the Marshall Plan represented a further clear distinction between West Germany and the Soviet-occupied zone. In the gradually forming Cold War pattern, the United States included the Federal Republic of Germany into a more
A broad range of Western European economic and political organizations.
Alan Wilson cherishes the memory of the British-occupied area. If it were not for the existence of the British-occupied area, Britain would never have repaid short-term foreign debt so quickly. Although Germany's economy may have started later than in history. But think about Japan and Germany.
People should be happy.
Although he cannot reunify Germany, he can split Japan, which is an Axis power, so that the Germans should feel more balanced. As for Italy's Alan Wilson, there is really nothing he can do.
In 1945, Alan Wilson was still a young man and could not let France occupy Sardinia as compensation for Italy. It is quite a pity when I think about it now.
When Alan Wilson turned his hand into clouds and rain in the Ruhr area, the situation in Berlin was actually not good. West Berlin's material gap was 5,000 tons, and this was based on no waste.
However, Britain's transport capacity was not even half that high, and West Berlin's supplies could not last more than a few days. This time, the Soviet Union made real moves before taking action.
The external condition is that the United States is caught in a war, and because of the incident in Hokkaido, it rushes to Japan's emergency aid and strengthens the stockpiling of materials on Honshu Island. At this time, if something happens in Berlin, the United States will be the leader and the two largest.
From this perspective, the United States is very grateful to the United Kingdom for taking the lead and helping the United States mobilize shipping capacity to buy time.
British air transport capacity cannot make up for the consumption of more than two million people in West Berlin. Although the Allied forces in West Berlin are fighting hard, supplies are still bottoming out visibly to the naked eye.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Alan Wilson knew this fact, but he pretended not to know it now. After basic analysis, if West Berlin cannot be saved, it will be a failure of the United States, not a failure of Britain.
The UK has reacted early, and the US is the one pulling the crotch.
If West Berlin cannot be saved in the end, Britain can be seen as trying its best, and the reputation of the United States will definitely fall worse than that of the United Kingdom.
Moreover, it is a false proposition that West Berlin cannot be saved. As long as the United Kingdom and the United States have this determination, West Berlin can definitely be saved, even if tens of thousands of Berliners starve to death. Anyway, the hegemony of public opinion is in hand, and the West Berliners who starve to death can push
As for the Soviet Union, it was indeed the Soviet Union that was the first to blockade Berlin. They seized on the reason why the Soviet Union took action in the first place to accuse it.
When McCarthy, who had already arrived in Bavaria, sent a telegram saying that things were not optimistic, Alan Wilson responded out of courtesy, but only verbally expressed encouragement to the United States.
"My dear, you don't seem to care about the Berlin crisis at all." Pokina looked worried, very worried about the continuation of the current confrontation.
"Oh, dear, why should I worry about something that is a sure thing." Alan Wilson smiled and said, "We will definitely defeat the Soviet Union this time, there is no doubt about it."
"But you also said that the current transportation capacity cannot supplement the needs of the more than two million people in Berlin. If this continues, won't Berliners starve?" Anna asked cautiously after hearing this.
"Then just starve. After all, what the free world wants is the place in Berlin. What about the Berliners? It's best if you can fight for it. But if you can't fight for it due to irresistible factors, you can save this deep dive anyway.
Just nails in the heart of the Soviet camp." Alan Wilson told the truth. Although it was a bit cruel, what he said was the truth.
As long as the bottom line is set low enough, no one can morally kidnap me! Anyway, it was the Soviet Union that started the Berlin blockade in the first place. It would be best if Britain and the United States could save it. If they cannot save it, a humanitarian crisis will result. The responsibility of course belongs to the Soviet Union that blockaded it.
Alan Wilson even believed that starving tens of thousands of people to death would be beneficial, as it could unite the hearts of the people of the free world and prove the ruthlessness of the Soviet Union.
In short, Berlin is a place that Britain and the United States will definitely protect. As for whether it will pay some price, that is not important. Anyway, the Soviets are backing it up.
"My darlings, don't worry about things in Berlin." Alan Wilson kissed each of the dragoon sisters on their faces and talked about some happy things, such as the fight for the Norddeutsche Bank.
Alan Wilson said that he worked hard for the sisters and must receive some compensation.
In fact, it was almost as he estimated. The supply of supplies in West Berlin decreased. After several days, it finally entered the control stage. All supplies on the market were sold out. When the British transport plane with the Union Jack flag arrived in Berlin again
, and he was not surrounded by cheers like he was at the beginning.
This is the bad thing about people gathering together. A lot of fake news spreads very quickly. Rumors have appeared in West Berlin that Britain and the United States have decided to abandon the place, which has led to scattered teams fleeing West Berlin.
This trend was quickly fed back to London, Washington, and Paris through the institutions of Britain, the United States, and France in Berlin.
When it comes to Paris, this is ridiculous, and France can't help at all.
The fact that people in West Berlin are panicking will not lessen as the material gap gradually decreases. Even on the seventh day of the airlift, the United Kingdom and the United States have increased the airlift tonnage to 2,800 tons.
British public opinion has begun to call for the United States to increase its air transport efforts and send everything that can fly to Europe.
Britain's public statement let the whole world know that the situation in Berlin was extremely critical, and more than two million Berliners were facing the threat of running out of food.
