Chapter 688 The Wife Wants to Do Charity
"I'm just curious about this world, and I wanted to go around, so I followed here." Princess Margaret raised her head slightly, as if this could increase her sense of reality.
"So that's the case!" Alan Wilson nodded expressionlessly, then sat down holding his wife's hand, and asked about the benefits of the Helsinki Olympics. At this moment, the Helsinki Olympics had already come to an end.
The British Empire participated in the Olympic Games as a whole, and trained talented athletes from the colonies. Finally got rid of the embarrassment of invisible people on the medal list in history.
In track and field events, the colonial athletes sent by the United Kingdom smashed all directions, smashing the enemy Soviet Union and the suspicious ally the United States.
In the final medal table, Great Britain ranked third with 18 gold medals, behind the United States with 26 gold medals and the Soviet Union with 21 gold medals, suppressing Hungary, a traditional sports powerhouse in Eastern Europe, and ranked third in the medal table.
The only slightly embarrassing thing is that if the local athletes and the colonial athletes are separated, only one of the 18 gold medals was won by the local athletes. Therefore, on the podium of the local Olympic Games, almost all the athletes standing under the flag of Mi Zi to receive the award are black.
This situation has also aroused dissent in the country. After all, within the mixed team this time, the performance of local athletes is extremely hip, and there are endless criticisms of the current level of sports in the UK.
If so many black athletes were called to participate in an ordinary country, it would probably lead to intensive black whistle. That is to say, Britain still has some imperial majesty, otherwise the final result is hard to say.
Moreover, track and field events are relatively the least likely to be hacked. Running fast means running fast. It is not like scoring events and you can bribe the referees.
"There are some controversies about the Olympic Games in China." Pamela Mountbatten did not hide anything. She knew that her husband was the initiator of this proposal, so she asked if there would be any follow-up effects?
"No problem!" Alan Wilson didn't care, and then whispered, "Honey, you know I don't care about these things, I care more about profitability."
"There is an approximate figure. This time the lottery has a profit of more than 6 million." Pamela Mountbatten couldn't hide her smile when she mentioned this incident. "I didn't expect such a thing to happen."
"What's strange, there is also a handicap in Malaya." Alan Wilson chuckled, and then calculated, "That's 20 million US dollars, which is indeed not a small number."
Pamela Mountbatten is British, and the currency mentioned must be the pound sterling. A profit of 20 million U.S. dollars is not a small number anyway, "Listen to me, exchange your share for gold and seal it up."
The share belonging to Pamela Mountbatten is half of it, and the other half belongs to the Newfoundland Crown Land Fund.
"I have always been obedient!" Pamela Mountbatten was very well-behaved. Under the Breston Woods system, governments and banks of various countries can exchange their dollars for gold at any time.
It is naturally impossible for Pamela Mountbatten to take gold from the United States in the name of a private person, but this is not a problem for her. She can link up with the Bank of London through the Sarawak Development Bank, and then exchange it for gold in the name of the Bank of London.
She didn't ask her husband why he wanted to exchange for gold, and banknotes and gold were the same in her eyes. Gold itself is a currency.
There is a consensus between the couple on this point. Since the U.S. dollar and gold have fixed exchange rates, it is right to quickly enrich the strength of the Mountbatten family while the Breston Forest system is still very stable.
It will not be so easy when the super-issued currency in the United States shakes the seemingly incomparably stable Breston Woods system. Gold still has the status of a hard currency for nearly 20 years, and the opportunity is rare.
"Compared with the vast market, the Commonwealth sports lottery issued by Newfoundland this time is only a small part of the entire market. I have already learned that there are other companies secretly issuing sports lottery tickets, which add up to no less than ours this time." Pamela Mountbatten said 1510, "And through statistics,
I found out that football is a big money sucker. The Olympic Games are so profitable, and when it comes to events like the World Cup, they can do a lot of work. "
"This idea is wrong. The World Cup has too much influence." Alan Wilson shook his head instead and explained to his wife, "The bigger the game, the more difficult it is to control. This is a basic principle. No private gaming company can handle such a big game. My dear, if you want to do this, you have to settle FIFA? It's very difficult, and institutions similar to FIFA are full of bureaucracy, just like government agencies. bookmakers, but that’s all.”
In Alan Wilson's memory, the shady scenes that can be called a few words exposed have nothing to do with the European Cup in the World Cup. This type of event is already too big, and the Champions League is generally the event that is manipulated.
The bigger the game, the less capable the gaming company is to manipulate it. Even if someone manipulates the game, it is not the gaming company behind it.
Capital is never monolithic. Everyone has their own interests. There are dozens of large international gaming companies, and hundreds of medium-sized gaming companies. Do these hundreds of gaming companies have the same interests?
The odds, odd numbers, and home and away team purchase ratios of each gaming company are different. For the same result, the profit and loss of different companies are also different, so it is impossible for everyone to make money together tacitly.
Manipulating the Champions League matches requires at least UEFA. When Platini was in charge of UEFA, the famous Stamford Bridge tragedy occurred. Later, Platini was resigned because of the scandal.
At the same time, Blatter was pulled down by the United States, which involved Qatar and French President Sarkozy, and Platini was involved, which led to unprecedented doubts about Barcelona.
Therefore, events at the World Cup and European Cup levels are almost certainly related to politics, and it is not something that can be done by a combination of several gaming companies. Qatar, which is involved in it, is a country with explosive oil and gas resources.
In the manipulation of the World Cup earlier, South Korea was the country that came forward and Zheng Mongzhun cooperated to bribe the referee to make match-fixing, and it has nothing to do with the gaming company. When it comes to competitions at the level of the World Cup, there are too few bookmakers. After all, it is the interest of the entire country, or the world's top giants, to play games with gaming companies, and it is simply unrealistic to manipulate the World Cup.
Saudi Arabia, which has long been guarded by nannies in West Asia, is also a proper oil bully. Which gaming company can compare financial resources with such an opponent?
"It seems that I was wrong." Pamela Mountbatten corrected her mistake and apologized to her husband. "Every time I have any doubts, I am full of confidence when I see you."
"It's okay. After all, I'm just an ordinary person. In the eyes of others, I'm just a despicable villain who has taken a fancy to the wealth of the Mountbatten family." Alan Wilson said proudly, "But it's me who married the woman they dreamed of as their wife."
With regard to the profits now received by his wife, besides the gold, Alan Wilson's remaining suggestion was to buy land. In addition to reading a certain slave owner's book, Bill Gates is also one of the few big landowners in the United States.
No matter how much money you have, even if you have already stood at the apex of the world, the money in your hands must fall on the real thing. There is absolutely nothing wrong with buying land.
Australia has a population of less than 10 million. Although the best time has passed, it is not too late to buy land.
Pamela Mountbatten, of course, obeyed her husband's advice, "I'll stay in Australia until the baby is born. We're also close now. If you have nothing to do, come and see me. I'll leave your special plane in Perth. When you want to come, just send a telegram."
"Why do you want to do this, isn't it a waste?" Princess Margaret finally found a chance to speak, and inserted into the state of the couple as if no one else was there.
"It depends on safety and maintenance considerations!" Pamela Mountbatten tried her best to euphemistically say that her husband was afraid of death, as long as the meaning was in place.
"I'm just afraid of death. My dear princess, the situation here is not peaceful." Alan Wilson slapped his head and remembered another thing. "My dear, let's use some money for charity. Many civilians were killed or injured in the Korean War. We adopted some Asian children."
"What is the purpose?" Pamela Mountbatten was a little puzzled. He absolutely did not believe that his husband was kind. On the contrary, in the eyes of Alan Wilson, human life was never worth a penny.
"In order to maintain the stability of the industry, it is necessary to cultivate some loyal groups from an early age. Of course, it is best to be white, but now there is no war in Europe and the United States. The establishment of a charity foundation to adopt some children is also for future consideration."
Alan Wilson didn't have the idea of building a loli island, and there was no need to do so in the environment of Southeast Asia. It can be said that most of the white people who went to Southeast Asia decades later came with evil purposes.
The laws in Europe and the United States have gone too far to protect the vulnerable groups one by one. Those who don't want to be controlled vent all their evil ideas to the third world. He only wants to train a group of mercenary soldiers who are proficient in killing people.
Pamela Mountbatten nodded and said, "It's a good idea, and it can also establish a positive image of the group. Then I will send Marina to visit South Korea, although I don't like the South Korean president."
"When Syngman Rhee is no longer the president, I will kill his whole family. This is an end to the attack on Britain in the Korean War." At this moment, it was time to show his reliability. Alan Wilson patted his chest and expressed his duty.
"It seems that this charity, I must do it beautifully, otherwise I will be sorry for your maintenance of the UK." Pamela Mountbatten couldn't help snickering, "Leave it all to me!"
