Keeping in touch for a long time is a habit that Alan Wilson has always insisted on. Two important news came from London. The British government promulgated the world's first modern air pollution prevention and control law - the "Clean Air Act", which marked the impact of London on
Determination that the smog incident will never happen again.
The promulgation of such a bill will greatly help Alan Wilson move out local highly polluting industries.
And regarding last year's national economic statistics, Britain finally caught up with Australia in per capita income in the tenth year after the war. After converting the exchange rate, per capita income exceeded US$2,000.
This can be said to be a milestone. Although the per capita income of the United States is about to reach 3,000, it is a good start after all. You must know that in the first year of Attlee coming to power, the per capita income of the United Kingdom was already only that of the United States.
Half of that year, we were still burdened with huge foreign debts.
The UK may have never been so humble and begged a country to help it. After all, the UK is not a single-minded France, and it really can eat chaff for the sake of a big country.
Compared with that time, the situation in the UK today is much better. It’s just that the UK is trying to catch up, and the United States is still not idle. Driven by Eisenhower’s large-scale infrastructure construction, the size of the US economy is still growing rapidly. For many countries, the gap is
It's enlarging rather than shrinking.
"The United States is so powerful, it's so frustrating." Alan Wilson, holding two telegrams, lamented in front of his wife.
Pamela Mountbatten glanced sideways at her husband and said, "Why don't you have confidence? This is not like you."
"With a population of 50 million in the UK, even if the income is equal to that of Americans, the economic power that the country can mobilize is far behind. You must know that the population of the United States has just gone through a five-year census and now has a population of 170 million.
Ten million. What’s more, Americans’ income is close to three thousand US dollars, while Britain’s income is only over two thousand US dollars.”
The United States in this era is really impeccable, which makes Alan Wilson, a man who thinks decades later, feel desperate.
With such economic strength, it is no wonder that other countries respect the United States as gods. Now the Imperial Commissioner has only one question, when will the Vietnam War start? Is it a bit too much to accumulate such a huge wealth without fighting a war?
"Yes, even if the income is the same, Britain is only one-third as powerful as the United States." Pamela Mountbatten couldn't help but sigh after hearing her husband's words. Although she didn't know why her husband didn't seem to like the United States.
It's not that Alan Wilson doesn't like the United States. If he were an American, he would definitely like the United States. But he doesn't. The influence of his nationality and the memory of his previous life caused him to only serve the country of his birth.
In terms of patriotism, if he was a patriot in his previous life, but his face changed after he changed to another country, this means that his patriotism in his previous life was also fake.
"Europe must indeed be integrated, but it must be under the leadership of the United Kingdom, otherwise the United Kingdom will be increasingly marginalized in the future. Let alone recalling some world hegemon, even itself will become a joke." Alan Wilson plunged into the warm embrace of his wife
, "Harmony with French capital can give Britain the strength to protect itself. I believe that Britain's continuous support for France's position after the war is a reflection of this."
Pamela Mountbatten nodded. Regarding her husband's political understanding, she had always accepted everything as promised. "We will see how much growth Malaya's infrastructure construction can bring to the mainland this time."
Most of the British urban construction in the colonies was to build a capital. The only exception in the African colonies was Nigeria, mainly because Nigeria is the most densely populated place in Africa.
The urban construction in Malaya is different from those building a capital city in Africa. Supporting facilities for industrial transfer must also be considered. The scale is larger and the investment is higher. Real estate development is only one aspect, and there are other considerations.
If nothing else goes wrong, the steel group in Kuching, the capital of Sarawak, will officially surpass the British mainland's steel production this year in terms of steel production in the Malayan colony. Cement production will be similar, twice that of Japan.
The result of achieving a real goal of surpassing Britain and catching up with the United States is that Alan Wilson has already planned fiscal expenditures for the next five years. The Malayan colonial government cannot even think of having a surplus in the next five years.
"Penang's urban construction is about to start, and I want to meet Su Yang and the others. Originally, Kuala Lumpur was given to them, but now it is about the same amount of work in Penang, but they have to be appeased." Alan Wilson
Ask for advice and see if your wife has any ideas.
"I'll have no problem supporting the local elite." Pamela Mountbatten never thought much about her husband's words and looked like she was being manipulated.
As the president of a business group, she doesn't have enough time, so she always has to care about the reports of other divisions.
Princess Margaret is also following this trend now. She may have just started doing business and is still curious about everything. She is very concerned about the exploration team going to Angola.
If Alan Wilson hadn't used the princess's name to swindle the princess in front of the big comprador and get the princess out, Princess Margaret almost treated the telegram as instant messaging and kept trying to contact the exploration team who were nowhere to be.
After more than a month of investigation, the planning plans of major cities and towns have been published on giant billboards.
Of course, there are places where you just do as the Romans do. From the perspective of centralized management, the Khrushchev House like the one in the Soviet Union is actually a better choice. The residential layout in China in later generations is a perfect version of the Khrushchev House.
Alan Wilson admires this kind of layout. British and American residences are open layouts, which are actually difficult to manage compared with residential layouts. If there is any black swan event, nothing can be blocked.
Gated communities are easy to centrally manage. If something goes wrong, just block the external access to the community.
So for the urban planning talents from London, Alan Wilson only asked them to design the public facilities. As for the residential part, he replaced it with a gated community.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This decision has been sincerely supported by many subordinates. Otherwise, the saying that gated communities are easy to manage has conquered them. The first thing to consider when working in the colony is the issue of resistance.
When Alan Wilson said, "In the future, most Chinese will live in such closed communities, which will fundamentally undermine the anti-British foundation of a large ethnic group. If they really live in rural villages, the workload for us and the garrison will be huge."
Woolen cloth."
As for the discrepancy between the final urban construction and the current billboard, that’s easy to explain, and the renderings are for reference only.
The only places where designers can use their spare energy are public facilities, shopping malls, golf courses, and schools.
"I hope the gentlemen won't be surprised if it's Penang City Construction." After arriving in Penang, Alan Wilson's greeting was more formal this time, calling the compradors another identity, Justice of the Peace.
Because of his existence as Chief Executive, the status of Justice of the Peace has also experienced a certain depreciation. Then he extended his hand to introduce the identity of Princess Margaret, "This is Her Royal Highness the Princess of Great Britain, the sister of Her Majesty the Queen."
"Your Royal Highness." A group of growing compradors greeted each other very politely, "Sir, Penang is actually very good here. We are willing to use our own strength to build Malaya."
"As long as you think about it, the difference is not big. It's just a matter of steel and concrete." Alan Wilson said happily, "I hope you can make Malaya's Asian Pearl shine even brighter."
When the princess was present, everyone said there was no problem and even expressed compliments and compliments to the princess. After the brother-in-law translated, the sister-in-law, who was originally in a low mood, became happy.
After this meeting, Su Yang, Tian Qianqiu and others got the real design drawings of the gated community.
"I don't know if their compliments are true or not. Your design drawings are obviously very unsightly." Princess Margaret curled her lips, not liking the drawings of the gated community.
The Khrushchev Building does not have any aesthetic value. It was introduced by the Soviet Union to solve the housing problem. Later it was spread to China and became a common residential style.
But what? It’s 1956 now, and as long as Alan Wilson does it fast enough, this will be evidence that the Soviet Union ignores copyright and plagiarizes the British colonies again.
"You don't understand the benefits of centralized management, which is conducive to controlling their movements at the lowest level. It is extremely important for us colonists." On the one hand, Alan Wilson kept saying that he was doing business for the sake of Great Britain.
"It's so selfless. In the end, only one of the four cities was given to Pamela. I don't know what you think."
"You don't understand, the big wealth lies behind." Alan Wilson felt it, but firmly denied that he had not given his wife the biggest cake.
Once urban construction is completed, water and electricity will be the bulk of cash flow. Compared with this, any urban construction can be ignored.
He remembered the enemy of Jackma Company, whose corporate empire’s dream was to provide water and electricity for the Internet. In the end, the well-organized Jackma was hit hard, and the corporate empire was safe at least for the time being.
So what we say about the structure is to deceive the people who eat melons, and pursuing the most basic goal is serious.
"Hmm." The imperial commissioner was lost in thought,
Margaret's eyes seemed to be dripping with water, and her tone was very sad.
Looking at a face similar to the Queen's, Alan Wilson swallowed for no reason, and spoke incoherently for no reason, "Margaret... I am not."
What's not? Margaret kissed her brother-in-law directly on the mouth. She had never fought such a rich battle.
