Chapter 403 My Friend McCarthy

Although California has a relatively friendly environment in the United States, Alan Wilson, who had just left Malaya, always felt a little chilly, but the mere chill could not extinguish the fiery heart of the Governor of Newfoundland. Although he continued After that, I have to report to the consulate in Boston, and then I have to go to Newfoundland to take up my post.

Regarding Alan Wilson's visit, Vivien Leigh looked surprised, stretched out her fist and hit the man on the chest, and said with joy, "You are so cruel, I thought you had forgotten me. "

"How dare you? Which British person dares to forget the gift of a national treasure." He grabbed Vivien Leigh's hand and kissed it. The next moment, he picked up the British treasure from the door and closed the door behind his heels as if he was equipped with a navigation system. Long time no see, I miss you so much.

In spring, the season of renewal, Alan Wilson is ready to do something in line with the arrival of spring.

In the spacious bathtub, Vivien Leigh was lying comfortably in the arms of Alan Wilson. She seemed to be relieved of her fatigue. Her eyes were half-open, and the back of her head was rubbing against the man's neck. "If you go to Newfoundland to be the governor, you can't do that." How long will you stay in Los Angeles?”

"After all, we are on a continent. I will try my best to take time to see you." Alan Wilson kissed the British treasure on the cheek, "Vivian, is the environment here much better than in London?"

"No matter how good the environment is, what's the use if there's no man around to rely on?" Vivien Leigh snorted, not knowing whether it was a complaint or a reaction from the mischievous hand under the bubble, "Just leave me in the United States. I turned around and got engaged."

"Vivian!" Ellen Wilson was a little embarrassed. Just as she was about to explain, Vivien Leigh turned over and looked at each other. She didn't know where to start.

"I know, I am much older than you. And I have been married twice!" Vivien Leigh said sadly, "Don't mention the past. You have helped me a lot. I don't ask for anything."

"You said that, and I'm even more embarrassed." Alan Wilson couldn't help but sigh. He thought it would be difficult for him to explain this problem, but in fact it was indeed difficult to explain.

He didn't know that Vivien Leigh's ability to avoid trouble in the end was not a profound truth, but the simplest truth. Those who are close to red are red and those who are close to ink are black. The British treasure's best friend in the United States is Katharine Hepburn.

And Katharine Hepburn is the protagonist whose partner cannot divorce because of Catholicism, and she still accepts her whoring all the time.

If it were friends like Joan Crawford and Bette Davis, maybe the British treasures would have changed several partners by now and forgotten about Alan Wilson.

I didn't delve into why the British treasure didn't make trouble, but Alan Wilson, who had just been made trouble by his fiancée in Malaya, felt that it was a good thing to get through so easily. If you don’t dig deeper, you won’t be able to find out Katherine Hepburn.

At Vivien Leigh's house, Alan Wilson comforted himself with peace of mind that the machinery and laborers would all take a boat to Newfoundland. I can use this time to adjust, and I am not in a hurry to go to my new post.

Vivien Leigh and Vivien Leigh live here as if they were a normal couple. Vivien Leigh also mentioned that coming to the United States this time was not as easy as before the war. Fortunately, Barbie has established a firm foothold and is now very popular in the United States. It became well-known, with sales of five million US dollars last year, which made her and many female celebrities who held shares very excited.

Joan Crawford is here, in the name of being a guest, and whenever she sees a mirror, she always takes a closer look at herself.

She believed that her appearance was not too ugly - a straight and generous nose, a high fair forehead, shiny wavy black hair, and dark eyes that sometimes contained a hint of gloom.

However, due to the misfortunes in her family, the nature of her previous occupation, and various interpersonal relationships, not only had she not had any real friends in the past, but, in her opinion, she might not be able to find them now.

Joan Crawford's trip to British India seemed to be a very big breakthrough, which relieved a lot of the tension and melancholy that had been plaguing her. Later, when she returned to the United States, the great success of Barbie dolls made her no longer need a doll. I'm so excited to be in the vanity fair of Hollywood, at least I have a lot more room for maneuver.

But then again, even before she earned a penny, she had been thinking secretly: If she were like other women, she would also have a better skirt, a nicer coat, and a pair of nice-looking clothes. How nice would it be to have some shoes and a set of well-made clothes? ah! High-end clothes, beautiful houses.

Joan Crawford's pursuits are no different from those of ordinary women, and she does not have a good family to support them like Vivien Leigh, so she can only rely on her own struggle.

But when she came, Alan Wilson was not there, but went to the consulate to get information.

As the incoming consul, at least concurrently serving as the consul in Boston, it was not too much for him to familiarize himself with the upcoming work, and then he came back with information on U.S. senators and important congressmen.

In view of the special relationship between Britain and the United States, Alan Wilson did not want to use the term intelligence to describe the information he brought back. After all, Britain and the United States are close allies, although these materials are actually intelligence. Diplomatic agencies have always been semi-public espionage agencies.

When he came back again, Joan Crawford and Hedy Lamarr were chatting with Vivien Leigh in the living room. Alan Wilson was a little embarrassed. After all, they were all close friends, but they were not embarrassed, and there was no need for him to remain embarrassed. , said hello and went upstairs with a package of documents.

"Now we don't back each other, we live together." Joan Crawford teased meaningfully, "It just so happens that Vivian is a single woman now and can think about herself."

"Don't make trouble, he came to North America to work." Vivien Leigh said shyly with a blushing face, "My divorce has nothing to do with Allen. It was because Oliver had an unclear relationship with another woman when I went to British India. , which led to the marriage change."

"Oh, really? Who gave you the idea?" Joan Crawford knew all about this thief-catch-the-thief rhetoric. She believed Vivien Leigh's rhetoric. If his wife is not around, a married man can do more than a year. Ascetic?

In this case, as long as the woman pays attention, she will be sure to catch it. In Joan Crawford's view, Vivien Leigh had already made preparations before returning to London, and first launched an attack to obtain evidence that was favorable to herself.

Is this Joan Crawford's guess? In fact, it is a fact. The only difference is in the details. As for the person who came up with the idea, he just went upstairs.

"What is Allen doing here this time?" Hedy Lamarr asked curiously with her legs together and a unique temperament, "Didn't you hear that he was transferred back to Europe?"

"I heard that he came to be the governor of Newfoundland and the consul of Boston." Vivien Leigh herself didn't realize that she felt proud when she mentioned Alan Wilson's work.

"Governor? Oh my god!" Hedy Lamarr is not an American like Joan Crawford. Of course she understands what it means to be a governor. Even if she is not as powerful as the governor of the Third Reich, she should not say anything wrong. Count as decoration.

Hedy Lamarr guessed right. There are two types of governors in the British Empire. One is the governor of the Dominion, similar to the governors of Australia and Canada. Those who have no real power, or can not use it even if they have real power.

The other type is the colonial governor. The colonial governor is not a governor with no real power like the governor of the Dominion. Although it is not like those wartime governors set up by the Third Reich who combined all powers, it is also the true head of a place.

It just so happens that British Newfoundland is currently a colony, not a dominion, so Governor Alan Wilson has real power.

In fact, after a trip to British India, Joan Crawford also understood that the capitalist who had been raised in China was the inherent thinking of her father, an official, and it was not necessarily universal.

So after hearing Vivien Leigh mention that Alan Wilson was here to serve as governor, I couldn't help but sigh at how young he was...

Upstairs, Ellen Wilson could hear the faint voices of the three female celebrities, but she turned a deaf ear and flipped through the pages of the American political intelligence provided by the consulate.

Including, but not limited to, foreign policy analysis of the Republican and Democratic parties, as well as specific resumes of political figures.

Finally, Alan Wilson extracted the files of Republican Senator McCarthy from these thick documents. McCarthy was born in a small farm family in Appleton, Wisconsin, and was the fifth child in his family. When he grew up, he chose to attend Marquette University in the state because of his Catholic faith.

After graduation, he began practicing law. Before the war, he was given the opportunity to serve as judge of the Circuit Court for the Seventh District of Wisconsin, thereby breaking into the establishment as "the youngest judge in the history of the district." When the United States entered World War II, he joined the United States Marine Corps. In 1946, with his outstanding eloquence and clear stance, he was successfully elected as the Republican Senator of the United States.

On the back of McCarthy’s document, the consulate’s note was, “A mediocre alcoholic, from any perspective, is a very ordinary figure, and he disappeared from the American political scene at some point.”

"Wow!" Alan Wilson, holding files on McCarthy in both hands, a mediocre alcoholic? It should be true that he is an alcoholic, but doing nothing should be out of the question. There is always time to shine.

The document stated that McCarthy was not a difficult person to deal with except for being a heavy drinker. He could even be rated as good when he was sober, but he was less sober.

Now McCarthy was supposed to be a very ordinary senator, Alan Wilson had a half-baked idea, simply put my friend McCarthy
