Chapter 256 Heidi Lamarr
In fact, there are voices of opposition within the U.S. Steel Corporation. Even Derek’s elder brother thinks that his younger brother is a little risky. After contacting Derek, he said, “I think we have done everything we can in the past. A certain degree of ambition is necessary; but once you step into the battlefield of greed, it will be a very tragic thing!"
And Derek replied to his brother's advice like this, "Due to various constraints, we still cannot expand our business at a faster speed. Even if you assert that I am a super radical, I still hope that you can stand on the side of a From the standpoint of directors, put yourself in the situation and calmly review the current problems."
"Even with the current optimistic growth rate, the purchase of new equipment and the expansion of factories will consume the funds that the banks can borrow to the maximum, and even the after-tax surplus will be exhausted. Considering that the accumulated liabilities in the banks are increasing year by year , Can we still say that we have established a firm foothold in the market? And it will take several years to repay the loan and pay the interest!"
"If nothing else happens, this will be an opportunity to make a small investment and get a big return. Against the background of the domestic economic prosperity. This time the merger is definitely not a blind expansion. On the contrary, if it succeeds, it will only make our business develop further. The risk is actually not that great, but the reward is big.”
At Katharine Hepburn's home in Los Angeles, Vivien Leigh kept asking Heidi Rama like a fan, and she was completely admiring Heidi Rama.
In fact, with the current fame of the two, Vivien Leigh does not need to be like this at all, but the world is so wonderful. Vivien Leigh admires Heidi Lamarr, whose film achievements are not as good as her own, which makes Heidi Lamarr feel that be surprised.
"Vivienne, see what you said." Heidi Lamarr was flattered by Vivien Leigh's enthusiasm. Heidi Ramarr has cooperated with many well-known directors. These films have also been nominated for many important awards, but the honors belong to others Yes, compared with many famous female stars, Heidi Lamarr's achievements in awards can be described as lackluster.
It's shocking that a female star like Vivien Leigh, who has achieved both fame and fortune, is still her admirer.
The recent Vivien Leigh is a typical example of gaining both fame and fortune. Driven by various reasons, Vivien Leigh's influence has risen even when no movie has been released, and praise from all sides has rushed to her face.
Even at the United Nations meeting, it was regarded as a positive image. If there is any title of United Nations Goodwill Ambassador in this era, then Vivien Leigh, who is now working for British India, is a sure candidate.
The name of a female star often appears in the social news and is mentioned in the United Nations meeting, which makes Heidi Lamarr very envious. This is exactly what she is after, but she has never obtained what she is after. Even the patented technology obtained is not taken seriously.
Heidi Lamarr came into contact with "spread spectrum communication technology" from her first husband Fritz Mandel. He supported Germany and even became the Austrian army supplier of major German armaments.
They are working on radio signal remote-controlled torpedoes and wireless communication jamming techniques. Although wireless communication technology was the country's highest-level military secret at the time, when Mandel talked about related technologies with weapons experts, he allowed Heidi to listen in and even record.
Heidi Rama, who later fled Austria, brought spread spectrum communication technology to the United States and applied for a patent.
They got a patent certificate issued by the United States and donated the patent to the U.S. government, hoping to help the war.
At the suggestion of Charles Kettering, the Navy held a joint meeting with the National Invention Council and the FBI to study whether the invention of Heidi and Antheil could be put into military use.
Heidi opened the drawings and tried to explain the mechanism, showing that some parts of it worked like the basic mechanism in a player piano. When military officers heard that the principles of military weapons came from pianos, they thought it was ridiculous.
Heidi herself was more interested in these officers and soldiers than engineering drawings.
Even because of her marriage in Austria, Heidi Lamarr was investigated by the FBI. They are also beautiful female stars. Looking at Vivien Leigh, looking at the things she touched, Heidi Lamarr was really very happy Difficult to balance.
The so-called time makes heroes, Vivien Leigh has the sincere praise of the British Empire, and the United States, which harbors evil intentions for British India, is enthusiastically admiring it with ill intentions, which has become the current situation.
If it weren't for the connotation of the British Indian colonial government, would American public opinion be so uniformly enthusiastic about Vivien Leigh?
Vivien Leigh couldn't see this, but there was still a master of micromanipulation on the subcontinent reminding her.
It is absolutely abnormal for the United States to care about British India now. If the United Kingdom lets go of the subcontinent in the next few years, it is okay. If the United Kingdom insists on maintaining its colonial rule in British India, it is estimated that the drama of patricide will not have to wait until the Suez Canal War. will play out.
This craze has already arrived in the United States. Anyone who does not express goodwill to British India with Vivien Leigh has already had a problem with character. Joan Crawford and Bette Davis are typical examples.
When she learned that Vivien Leigh hoped to invite one of Joan Crawford and Bette Davis to help her call attention to British India, the entertainment news exploded all of a sudden, and many newspapers were speculating whether the two long-lost And the female star, who is the vicious woman in the other party's mouth.
It can be said that the current public opinion environment on the Great Famine in India already has a hint of political correctness in later generations. Anyone who does not express sympathy for the drought in the subcontinent is a bad woman, and only a slogan that Indian lives are precious is missing.
When the public opinion news is looking forward to who the vicious woman is, Joan Crawford and Bette Davis, who have already felt the direction of public opinion, expressed at the same time that they would help Vivien Leigh, raise funds for the drought in British India, and get rid of the horrible Being politically correct, let the melon-eating crowd watching the excitement realize that a clown is actually my own treatment.
It is precisely because Joan Crawford and Bette Davis were swayed by the horrible public opinion. Heidi Lamarr, who has been experiencing the unfair treatment in the United States for several years, came to the door after Vivien Leigh sent an invitation. Unexpectedly, It has also been viewed differently by the darling of public opinion.
The purpose of Heidi Rama's coming is naturally to pursue progress. How many people in this world are willing to stand still? Celebrities instinctively follow hot spots, and Heidi Lamarr is also a star, so it is inevitable.
In the United States now, sympathy for British India is the biggest hot spot. After Derek went to Morgan Stanley, this hot spot not only did not cool down, but because U.S. Steel Corporation expressed its willingness to purchase grain in the name of the company and transport it to The British Raj was even more popular.
Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Heidi Lamarr, Lana Turner, Tallulaban Kerhead, Pauline Goddard, Miriam Hopkins, Joan Bennett, Katharine Hepburn, Ingrid Bergman, Claudette Colbert, plus Vivien Leigh herself, a total of 12 female stars with outstanding looks, strength and good looks, have helped push forward The interest of people who eat melons.
With the blessing of this craze, Vivien Leigh's girlfriends group is expanding at a terrifying speed. The United Nations named Vivien Leigh, the kindest goddess, and her circle of friends has expanded at a speed that she has never felt in the first 30 years of her life.
"The definition of derivatives is a series of services or products that can be sold by using original characters and carefully designed by professional designers. Such as audio-visual products, movies, books, novels, toys, animation images Models, clothing, beverages, health care products, socks, shoes, stationery, etc. can all be developed into derivatives.”
Alan Wilson was also taken aback by Vivien Leigh's efficiency. Although it has the effect of guiding public opinion, Vivien Leigh's efficiency is too high. It has almost wiped out all the top female stars of Vivien Leigh's era. If the newspaper group is successful, later The road ahead may not be smooth.
But when I think about it, most of them are Americans, and the problem affects the United States, so there is no problem.
After getting the U.S. Steel Corporation to purchase food in the name of the company and to assist British India, the assistant commissioner who had already seen the bad intentions of the Americans, through Vivien Leigh's telegram, could also feel the traces of operations that were obviously oriented by public opinion.
I don't know if it's the trust company or the US federal government, maybe there are both, otherwise the Americans are idle? To have so much sympathy for British India is totally out of the ordinary.
However, Americans can raise donations as much as they want, anyway, the distribution is still in the hands of British India, and he has the final say on whether to give it or not. Aid materials appeared on the black market, so could he not do what Mr. Chang did?
The soldiers came to downgrade, and Alan Wilson, who was busy formulating the health bill for British India, just waited, and he still had time to help Vivien Leigh with ideas on how to expand its influence, quickly capitalize on the current upsurge, and through derivatives products have a more lasting impact.
Twelve people correspond to the Golden Zodiac in ancient Greece. Alan Wilson has only watched Saint Seiya in anime with similar settings. Anyway, it is just a suggestion. Let Vivien Leigh find a way to bind this setting, and then pull other female stars cash together.
As for the $200,000 favor fee that Derek said, it can be collected first and used to develop his career. Anyway, once an American with bad intentions arrives in British India, he will definitely find a way to find him. That's the big deal.
The benefit fee of 200,000 U.S. dollars was directly transferred to Vivien Leigh by Alan Wilson. The Great Britain Bao asked himself that he had seen the world, but this time he realized that the so-called world experience was not enough.
