Chapter 304： i am from atlanta

"She seems to be afraid of you.

At this time, William Chen finally remembered the identity of the woman in front of him, and couldn't help but say to her with a smile.

"It seems so."

Maria looked at William Chen lightly, and said playfully:

"Since it's so obvious, aren't you afraid of me?"

"I" William Chen shrugged: "Sometimes fear stems from the unknown, and sometimes it is because of knowing the identity of the other party. I only know your name, but I don't know who you are, so now it's in my eyes. Here, you're just a beautiful woman, that's all, what's there to be afraid of?"

"Well, it makes sense. You are an interesting person, but aren't you curious about my identity?"

"It's nothing more than that. Your age can make others fear you so much. Either your husband is a big man or your father is a big man. This is a secret thing for Russians, but for me , what's the difference?"

"Why can't I be a big man myself?"

Hearing her words, Chen William smiled and said, "It's not like, for a powerful woman, most other women will only envy or admire them, and I'm afraid that such emotions will rarely appear."

Maria has big eyes. She seems to like to look directly at people. When she heard William Chen's words, she smiled noncommittally. Noticing the people around her, although she was still doing her own way, Maria had a certain aura. If there were any people close to them, they would escape, causing William Chen and her to appear in a vacuum-like area.

"Chat in another place"

She doesn't seem to like this kind of atmosphere too much, Maria said to William Chen.

At this time, William Chen already knew the identity of the woman in front of him. Although she seldom appeared in the media at this time, after William Chen's previous life, her figure had begun to appear in the media, and because of her identity, she was rejected by the media. Widespread attention.

If it is normal for two people to chat together in such a public place, then it would be inappropriate to change the place. Chen William couldn't believe it. As a well-known "daughter slave", that society did not arrange for someone to "take care" of her.

But at this time, being stared at so directly by Maria, if he took a step back, he would be completely at a disadvantage, and he didn't want to have anything with her, so why should he be so guilty.

"You don't look like an American."

Maria and Chen William walked out of the ball hall to a large open-air balcony. The two chatted casually for a while, and she suddenly said this.

"I'm an Atlantean now."

"I'm not referring to this. You grew up in America before, but chatting with you, you can't feel the arrogance of those Americans. They always have a stereotyped image of us in Russia."

"When you say that, it's not a stereotype."

William Chen said with a smile, and when Maria heard the words, a smile appeared on her face. She heard William Chen continue:

"No matter where it is, ordinary people will inevitably be in an information cocoon. This leads to two parties with too large differences, each thinking that the other party is brainwashed. In fact, both parties accept unilateral information infusion."

"Hehe, don't Europe and the United States always consider themselves free press?"

"That's what it is. You can speak freely, but whether your words can continue to exist or be seen by others is another matter." In this regard, William Chen was reluctant to say too much: "So say Still need to walk around and see more of the reality of the world, you will find that some places are not as good as you think; some places are not as bad as you think.

At this moment, a man in a suit came out from the dark, went to Maria's side, whispered something to her in Russian, she nodded, and the other party gave William Chen a look, turned to leave, and again. hours in the dark.

Maria couldn't see any special look on her face. She looked at William Chen again and said:

"I'm leaving, and it's a pleasure to talk to you today, Mr. William."

Seeing Maria's outstretched hand, Gentleman William Chen shook hands with her, and heard her continue:

"Also, I'm sorry for disturbing the good atmosphere between you and that beauty."

Whether it's the trade with Russia or the nuclear power project, it's definitely not something that can be done in a while, so this time Maria and the others came here mainly to express their attitude, and the rest will continue to negotiate later.

It was approaching the end of September, and Maria and her party set off again for London.

London is slightly warmer than Moscow. The Republic of Palu was originally a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. Although the organization's international presence is becoming increasingly sluggish, it is at least a connection.

In fact, the concept of the British Commonwealth was not first proposed by the United Kingdom, but was proposed by the South African General Smiths at an imperial conference. The proposal of this concept, in the historical environment at that time, was actually an independent requirement in disguise.

After the First World War, Britain's strength had been greatly damaged, so many colonies at that time were unable to maintain it. Without wanting to directly turn against the United Kingdom, General Smiths proposed the concept of the British Commonwealth, in fact, he was seeking some degree of independence.

At this time, the United Kingdom also knew that its own strength was no longer able to maintain the vast colonies, and that its intention was to rule some large colonies that had already become climatic. Therefore, in order to avoid unhappy separation with the colonies, the United Kingdom had to settle for the next best choice. Appropriate compromise.

In 1931, the British Parliament passed the bill reluctantly, which stipulated that the British Dominions have the right to obtain full independence. Then Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and South Africa declared their independence, and Britain also denied the independence of these countries.

However, these independent countries are not completely separated from the United Kingdom, but are bound to the United Kingdom in the form of a federation. But this federation is not a country, but an international organization.

This organization has neither a unified central government nor a unified authority, but the members of the Commonwealth must be mindful of the fact that the King of England is the nominal monarch and head of state.

After the Second World War, as Britain was seriously damaged again, its strength was difficult to maintain the rule of many overseas colonies, so many colonies under its jurisdiction chose to become independent. For the benefit and development of these newly independent colonies, most of them joined the British Commonwealth and continued to be disconnected from the United Kingdom.

The same is true for the Republic of Palu They were originally a British colony, and even after independence, most of the domestic phosphate mines were still controlled by British mining companies, which were later redeemed after resistance. .

On the one hand, the British Commonwealth at this time, even if the United Kingdom tried to increase its presence later, but because of its national strength, it did not improve much, so the binding force on the member states was very loose. On the other hand, Bai Haomeng also needed to pass this organization. , and deepened relations with many countries. Therefore, in his interviews with the British Prime Minister and the Queen of the United Kingdom, he showed that the Bai Haomeng Kingdom still hopes to remain in the Commonwealth of Nations.

He also hopes to strengthen cooperation with the United Kingdom in many fields. Their royal family funds, the William Chen Fund, and the William Chen Sovereign Fund in the future will strengthen their investment in the United Kingdom. Britons are also welcome to invest and immigrate to the Kingdom of William Chen.

The United Kingdom is also very uncomfortable. After all, for them, the former Republic of Palu was just a dragging oil bottle. Now it will be no worse than the Kingdom of William Chen of Maria. With his financial resources, at least it will not be as bad as Palu's. Lu likes to cry every day for help

The British side expresses its welcome to the Kingdom of Bai Haomeng to join the big family of the Commonwealth. The British government will actively participate in the process of abnormalization of the Kingdom of William Chen, and will continue to develop friendly relations with them and cooperate in various aspects.

In the subsequent private interview with the Queen of England, she also expressed her gratitude to Maria for her contribution to British football and hoped to strengthen the mutual exchanges between the royal families of the two sides.

In general, this meeting with the British side was relatively smooth. After all, the Republic of Palu had the foundation of the British Commonwealth, and the United Kingdom was also happy to have more members of its own Commonwealth.
