Chapter 681 Gold Plating Plan

It’s not that Alan Wilson is possessed by the white left. He suddenly wants to learn from the 21st century America and play the identity politics of gay minorities. However, the current world's attitude towards people like Turing is indeed a bit too much.

Turing's orientation is not something this group can choose. If one is found and thrown into prison, it cannot be justified.

Turing was already excited about Alan Wilson's attitude of keeping a distance and not disturbing each other. In this era, people like Turing did not have a desperate mentality to talk about their orientation every day. Being able to have the acquiescence of the mainstream group was already Enough to be happy.

In fact, the Turing incident has not spread, and the newspapers have not mentioned it. Now London citizens are discussing that black athletes in the colonies have brought glory to the country. This is a big deal for citizens. As for the Iranian oil crisis and the Egyptian coup, it has not People are paying attention to it, and even NATO, which is about to pay the bills, cannot arouse the interest of London citizens, let alone such a trivial matter as Turing.

"Just continue to focus on your scientific research. In fact, if you become more successful, it means that your group will also contribute to mankind. I believe that ordinary people will recognize your group, at least they will not discriminate."

Alan Wilson also drew a pie. He himself is very much looking forward to Turing using computers to bring a wave of dividends to the UK. After all, the entire UK can only count on Turing now, and others are even less reliable.

It was during this era that Alan Wilson understood the limits to development imposed by Britain's national size. It is impossible to fully bloom like the United States and the Soviet Union. For a country, scale is really important.

For example, when Japan reached its peak and was taken over by the United States, causing it to fall into a quagmire, the most fundamental reason was that Japan was not large enough and fell into the dilemma of Galapagosization.

Even if they have the same technical level and the United States and Japan promote it at the same time, the United States will rely on its larger scale to make the world recognize American standards and block Japanese standards in China so that they cannot be promoted.

Galapagosization does not only exist in Japan. China’s Internet is a larger-scale Galapagosization.

Any Internet company that goes overseas will face more powerful American companies. In order to make profits, Chinese Internet companies have begun to compete with vegetable vendors for business.

With the current population size of the UK, if you think it can be on an equal footing with the United States just on its own territory. It will definitely be hammered into Galapagosization by the United States, so it must become the leader of the European Community.

If it cannot do this, even if the UK has technology comparable to that of the US, it will not be a match for the US in the final battle for standards, and all kinds of British products will be quickly blocked in the country.

The UK is luckier than Japan in that it can now speak in the European Community. Japan does have good relations with Southeast Asia further afield, but China and South Korea, which are right in front of us, both have a grudge against Japan, and Japan cannot rely on its strength.

In fact, the UK now stands out in Europe. In 1952, UK car production exceeded one million. It seems incomparable to the production of the United States, but now the United Kingdom is the only country besides the United States that produces more than one million cars.

Moreover, the price of British cars is much higher than that of the United States. Like the automobile industry, other industries are not as good as the United States, but they are still far behind European countries. British cars are also the only cars that can enter North America!

The background of being a world hegemon is clearly revealed. It seems that in a short period of time, Alan Wilson will never want to transfer the automobile industry to the colony he manages.

With the help of Alan Wilson, Turing's arrest did not affect his research. This result is very gratifying.

As for the enduring public discussion on black athletes, it has nothing to do with him. He is more concerned about when NATO was established.

This time in the Berlin Crisis, the Soviet Union cut off Berlin's power system and began building the Berlin Wall. This has led to a sharp rise in the progress situation in Europe, and also brought NATO, which has been under discussion, into people's view.

In fact, according to Alan Wilson's memory, NATO has been around for three years, and this is already long overdue.

However, this three-year window period is still effective. It must be said that due to the historical Berlin Crisis in 1948, the United Kingdom agreed to the United States establishing a military base in the United Kingdom to deploy strategic bombers.

The Berlin Crisis was three years late, so there were no US military bases on British soil. The Berlin Crisis in this time and space broke out after the Korean War, and after MacArthur's hasty remarks about nuclear weapons appeared, it is estimated that Britain will not agree to the United States establishing a military base on British soil in the future.

It is not possible to station troops on each other. This is the information obtained by Alan Wilson from Whitehall. Although the United States has not proposed such a proposal, Whitehall has already had hypothetical discussions on this. Even if the United States says that Britain can also station troops in the United States, reciprocity will still suffer.

I, Alan Wilson, rushed to Whitehall and met Sir Ismay, the Permanent Under-Secretary of the Foreign Office. While asking about the military alliance, I also learned the bottom line of this cabinet.

"We have discussed with the Americans that the military alliance of course has France as the core and the Federal Republic of Germany as the front line. Therefore, the layout of the military base is mainly based on France." Sir Ismay said calmly, "Washington also agrees Such an arrangement. After all, France is an army power. When Germany cannot rely on it for the time being, we can only rely on the French."

"And the Italians!" Alan Wilson followed Sir Ismay's words and added, "Anyway, we are not good at the army, so we cannot afford such an arduous task, and there are still many colonies that need garrison troops. The current military strength is eight A standing army of 100,000 is not enough, so how can we increase the number of troops in Europe?"

After shirking responsibility, Alan Wilson seemed to remember something and asked, "What do you say about the command authority of this military alliance? This is a big deal."

Responsibilities can be shied away, but command rights cannot be shied away. On the contrary, they must be fought for with all their strength.

"This military alliance is dominated by Britain and the United States, which share the power of the military alliance." Ismay answered.

In fact, most of the proposals for the establishment of NATO have been discussed.

"By the way, the United States hopes that Greece and Turkey will join this military alliance. We have already recognized it!" Sir Ismay also took the initiative to tell Alan Wilson about this.

Seeing Sir Ismay feeling good about himself, Alan Wilson thought of a sentence, I thought he was here to help me!

In its early days, NATO was based on the dual giant model of Britain and the United States. This can be seen from the fact that Eisenhower became commander-in-chief and Montgomery became deputy commander-in-chief, but the civilian leader, NATO Secretary-General, was the British. NATO is decided by Britain and the United States!

However, if de Gaulle comes to power, he will fight for the same command rights for France and want to change the status quo of France being subordinate to the United Kingdom and the United States in NATO. Then, as expected, he was rejected by the United Kingdom and the United States. Then France withdrew from NATO and the NATO headquarters moved to Brussels.

Within a year, France first announced that its Mediterranean fleet was not under NATO command; then France refused to allow the United States to establish nuclear weapons in France and forced the United States to withdraw its nuclear bombs and bombers carrying nuclear weapons from France.

After France exploded its first atomic bomb. It was also announced that the Atlantic Fleet was not under NATO command. Recall all French officers serving in NATO Naval Command.

De Gaulle wrote to U.S. President Johnson, requesting a formal withdrawal from NATO military agencies, and announced the withdrawal of all French troops under NATO command. He also canceled the right of NATO military aircraft to transit and land in France, and ordered the withdrawal of U.S. troops and their bases within one year. Out of France.

Finally, France withdrew from NATO's military integration body; withdrew from NATO's military committee. NATO headquarters moved from Paris to Brussels.

"Eisenhower is going to be president soon. I wonder who will be the commander-in-chief of NATO?" Alan Wilson thought in his heart and couldn't help asking. He didn't know who the United States wanted to send as the commander-in-chief of NATO.

"Washington has not decided yet, but there is a voice that General Ridgway is the candidate recommended by the United States." Sir Ismay smiled sarcastically, and then changed his tone and said, "Alan, do you know why I want to talk to you about these things? ?”

"I don't know!" Alan Wilson replied with a confused look on his face. He even had a lot of imagination. Could it be that the other party suspected that he was a Soviet spy?

Alan Wilson was about to put on a look of grievance next to him when he heard Sir Ismay say, "When we signed the contract with the United States, you and I attended with the Foreign Secretary. Sir Norman hopes that you can add glory to your resume." One stroke.”

"I feel very honored!" Alan Wilson understood that this was pie in the sky. Although he was still in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he was actually the colonial commissioner now, and this matter actually had nothing to do with him. Sir Ismay's doing this was really good for him.

Who would say no to gold plating? Anyway, Alan Wilson couldn't refuse, and had even sent a telegram to Kuala Lumpur and Africa to provide good wood to our British apocalypse, the distinguished cabinet secretary Sir Norman Brooke.

Back home, Alan Wilson told him that he would return to Malaya after being gilded.

"When will the contract be signed?" Pamela Mountbatten had heard about the military alliance. Don't forget who her father was. Relevant discussions have already reached our ears.

"August 25th, there is still one month left." Alan Wilson raised his wrist and looked at the time. "The signing place is in Paris. The economic and trade part of the Brussels Treaty Organization will be merged into the European Community. The military part will be integrated with this new The military alliance will be merged. The headquarters of the Brussels Treaty Organization will also be moved from London to Paris, and Paris will be the new headquarters of this military alliance."

"Oh, by then the Helsinki Olympics should be over, and I will know whether this sports lottery is worth the long-term investment in the future." Pamela Mountbatten nodded, "My dear, you have a bright future in the eyes of Whitehall. ah?"
