Chapter 277 The Goddess Arrives
"I gave everything for the British Empire!" Standing in the middle of the airport, facing Alan Wilson, who was dazzling Yangon, he yawned chaotically, and saw the plane landing with half-closed eyelids.
Vivien Leigh, the national treasure of the British Empire and the daughter of British India, finally landed at the airport in New Delhi, the capital of British India, with her best friend, a Hollywood actress in the eyes of ordinary people.
There were already many media people waiting at the airport exit. Vivien Leigh's trip to the United States was regarded by the Governor's Office as a placebo to divert conflicts from the very beginning. Therefore, although she left the subcontinent, her every move affected the hearts of the people of the subcontinent.
Vivien Leigh, who came back from the United States, was radiant. As soon as she walked out of the gate, her eyes behind the sunglasses caught the yawning Alan Wilson. The eyes behind the glasses were full of distress, "I know work every day, just like British India cannot do without you .”
Fortunately, compared with the exquisite face, the sunglasses are very large, blocking Vivien Leigh's talking eyes, otherwise it may cause trouble.
The sound of clicking cameras and enthusiastic cheers showed that British India now welcomes the return of the national treasure. This is just the beginning. The airport is full of British expatriates and media people. Lovers will realize that everything is a small scene now.
In the airport alone, Vivien Leigh received no less treatment than the visit of the head of state. Maybe now the visit of the head of state is not as effective as the appearance of Vivien Leigh. The current scene alone has made Bergman, who got off the plane behind Vivien Leigh, Heidi Lamarr, Garbo and others were shocked.
Although everyone is a star, there is no shortage of moments to receive applause and welcome, but they are not as happy as they are now, receiving such a high standard of courtesy. Apart from the performance, everyone has similar things in common. Just come here to set up people in person, and gossip about hot spots. The more sensational the United States is, the more traffic you can earn. It's just a two-month performance, and it will pass after a while.
However, Vivien Leigh knew that this kind of treatment was entirely due to the yawning man. During the murder of the film, a group of female stars shook hands with the people who came to pick up the plane one by one. Of course, the man behind the Indian goddess was also included.
"Why are you so tired!" When Vivien Li shook hands, there was a lot of blame in her tone, as if she was complaining.
"Miss Vivienne, I came back from British Burma in a hurry." Alan Wilson said a little tiredly, "Welcome back to the subcontinent. I believe the people of the subcontinent are very happy about the news of your return."
Of course, the reason for Alan Wilson's exhaustion was not all due to rushing, but there was a lack of fetters for other reasons.
Sure enough, after hearing this answer, Vivien Leigh was calm on the surface, but her heart was full of sweetness, but she couldn't stay too long on this occasion, she just nodded and passed.
Shake hands with Heidi Lamarr, Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Greta Garbo and Ingrid Bergman in turn. I have to say that the look of being overworked is indeed a very good protective color, and several stars who play like life can't see anything abnormal.
It's a joke. Could it be that in terms of acting, the glorious imperial civil servants are inferior!
The next time is back to the time when the people of Delhi lined the streets to welcome. Vivien Leigh, who has already established herself in the hearts of Indians, was cheered by the 200,000 people in Delhi, and she faced the endless waves of people against the backdrop of other Hollywood stars. , took the speech prepared by the Governor's Palace, and gained a wave of favorability for the British Empire.
Raising soldiers for thousands of days and using them for a short period of time, and bringing Vivien Leigh to British India is to deal with this kind of use.
Great British Treasure also lived up to the trust of the empire, and told about his hard work in the United States and working for British India with emotion. Whenever the night was quiet, thinking that the people in the subcontinent were still suffering from the drought, he could not help but burst into tears.
"Ah..." He yawned heavily, and Alan Wilson stretched out his hand when he saw the cue board that it was time to applaud.
The palm sets off the atmosphere.
As for Heidi Lamarr, Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Greta Garbo, and Ingrid Bergman, they are all goddesses walking in the world. They are in the United States but care about the lives of people in the subcontinent. The schedule also came to express the fact of goodwill. Although Alan Wilson didn't believe it, the Indians believed it, which also aroused cheers from the crowd.
"I heard that the plane carried a large number of film films shot by these American stars." Alan Wilson tilted his head at this time, and asked the transfer secretary Edel, "Is there such a thing?"
"Yes, it was covered by canvas on the third landing plane, and it should have weighed a few tons." Edel nodded solemnly, "Ms. Vivien Leigh's plane has only luggage besides a few stars. The second There are film practitioners on the first plane, and there are not many people on the third plane, all of which are film brought.”
"It's so blatant. Changing it to another place is enough to be a cultural invasion." Alan Wilson turned a cold face, turning a blind eye to the waves of cheers, and said in a deep voice, "If the Americans are kind, they will It's not like the Americans I remember."
"We prohibit the playback of foreign videos." Edel suggested with narrowed eyes, "We can definitely do it."
"Of course it can be done, but it seems too cautious. And this is not an excuse. Why don't you keep an eye on the Americans in Mysore State." Alan Wilson shook his head slightly, "After all, it is our place, clean up a few Isn’t it normal to have visitors from afar?”
"However, I heard that these representatives of the American banking industry are already preparing to leave, and they have traveled to many places recently." Edel said with a sigh of relief, "It seems that there is nothing abnormal at present."
Allen Wilson was very clear about this matter. After these inspectors left, the Lord should come.
People like Wilkins came to British India just to confirm whether the report in the information was accurate. Once the news is confirmed, those who have the final say will leave.
The existence of people like Wilkins is necessary, and capital is not stupid. A poor and white guy who has nothing and is favored for no reason is just the positive energy in Hollywood movies. I believe it is stupid .
Generally speaking, Alan Wilson is quite satisfied with the work of the papermaker. Last month, the whole of British India was calm. Four years ago in August, Gandhi was released from prison.
After that, every year people demanded to hold grand demonstrations across India on this day to commemorate the arrest of Gandhi and all the leaders of the Congress Party in that year, protesting the tyranny of the government, demanding the immediate independence of India, and the British withdrawing from India.
There was no similar parade this year. It is certain that the civil servants of the British Raj were united in this year. Of course, the additional help of the drought also contributed.
If you are a little less humble, this year's situation is really not a small one but a great one.
Alan Wilson has suggested that this year's economic statistics for British India should be lower than they really are. To prepare for next year's rise, the chicken blood is still beaten, and it is necessary to change the pattern.
Gandhi and the Congress Party have been really busy recently, and the disaster relief they discussed with the Muslim League finally made progress after the drought improved. It's true that I don't have time to quarrel with the Governor's Mansion.
The Peace religion is a staunch monotheist, but the Hinduism tends to believe in an infinite number of gods; the Peace religion denies any form of representation of Allah, while the Hindus adorn their temples with many images.
Paxists occasionally offer a cow as a burnt offering to Allah, but Hindus consider cows sacred and protect them from harm.
Peace believers believe that all people are equal before Allah, while Hindus have always followed the caste system, which divides society into classes, and the higher classes have more religious privileges than the lower classes.
These two religions can be said to be the least harmonious religions in the world, but they live on one subcontinent.
However, in the negotiations after the drought, the Congress Party and the Muslim League had only just reached a consensus, and the voice of living in harmony became much louder. This is really a dumbfounding thing.
At this time when everything was waiting to be done, the Governor's Office tried its best to prove that the situation was not a small one but a great one, so it acquiesced in the emergence of good news.
While the people of Delhi were mesmerized and bathed in the glory of the Indian goddess, the two bureaucrats of British India talked about the grand blueprint very discordantly, all of which were hidden under the hustle and bustle of the atmosphere.
Next, when Vivien Leigh will perform, she will go to major cities in the subcontinent to give speeches, and be a good image representative of the British Empire. It is also necessary to take into account the shooting of documentaries for American companies. If this was the case before, it would be a suspicion of a double agent.
But in the place of British India, how could Alan Wilson wrong the Great British Treasure? After taking a nap in the Governor's Mansion in the afternoon, the assistant commissioner, who was in good spirits again, took a bath to get rid of the fatigue on his body, and waited for the time to get off work.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Officer Allen confirmed the signal from Vivien Leigh's apartment through a telescope, and went downstairs impatiently.
Knocking on the door, Alan Wilson panted heavily, staring straight at Vivien Leigh who came to open the door. A man and a woman were already entangled at the door, and when the door was closed, there were already fallen clothes on the ground.
"Looking at your appearance during the day, I thought you didn't have time to come here." Vivien Li wiped her wet hair, and her lazy voice was full of joy, "When I was in the United States, I often couldn't sleep, it's not like you are here So cozy."
"I can't sleep either. Some time ago I had the problem of going for a walk in the middle of the night." Alan Wilson was smoking a cigarette, the red end of which flickered in the dark night, categorically denying Vivien Leigh's groundless guess, although he didn't try it at the time. No, the idea of asking Alisa to come to New Delhi to help.
