Chapter 301 Watching Movies
Subtitle of this chapter: It is better to play a movie than talking about politics
……………………………………
"Dr. Yuan, won't you invite us in?"
"Oh, of course." Our Master Yuan gave up reluctantly and said, "Mr. Collins, and this gentleman, please come in and come in..."
"Please sit down, please sit down, what are you two?" Since he invited the person in, he still had the best friend of the landlord.
"Whiskey, pure."
"Me too."
Irish people love to drink whiskey. You should know that although Scotland's whiskey is the most famous, Ireland is the origin of whiskey. In the early Middle Ages, alchemists discovered the method of making distilled liquor. After the Irish distilled local beer, they obtained the earliest whiskey.
Even Whisky in English comes from Viaga-Beatha in Ireland. The origin of this word is Aquavitae in Latin, which is literally translated as the water of life.
Yuan Yan poured two glasses of whiskey for the two of them, and then asked, "So, Mr. Collins, what's wrong with you, the chief representative of Ireland who loves peace talks, come to me?"
In fact, his subtext is like this. Your man is now the focus of the news, and the British must be watching it very closely. If you run to me, I will be targeted by the British.
Michael Collins is worthy of being the British "Pain in the Ass", and is a thorn in his eyes.
He actually heard the implicit sound, so he comforted: "Dr. Yuan, please rest assured. Others will not know about my coming here. And this time I come, first of all, I would like to thank you on behalf of the people of Ireland for your righteous words."
Our Master Yuan used the Irish issue to disgust the UK and the Democratic Party for a long time, and anyone who has read his political articles knows it.
"You're welcome." He shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, "To be honest, I'm actually disgusting the British."
Collins laughed and said, "Haha, thank you Dr. Yuan for your honesty. This shows that we have a common enemy, so we are friends. Secondly, what I want to say is that I personally like your script of "The Lonely Girl in the Famine."
In fact, part of the one million US dollars investment in "The Lonely of Famine" comes from Irish people. If the movie attracts investment, it is impossible not to show the script to investors, otherwise why should people take out real money?
Yuan Yan nodded suddenly and said, "I want to thank you Irish people for your support."
"Then what's the end..." People began to express their true purpose, "I heard that you want to premiere "The Lonely of Famine" in Ireland, and I personally welcome it. But..."
Master Yuan jerked: "But, you think it's better not to stimulate your compatriots in the current situation. So you hope I cancel this plan."
As mentioned earlier, the British-Iraq ceasefire agreement came into effect on July 11, and then the two sides entered negotiations. By the end of the year, the "British-Iraq Peace Treaty" was finally reached.
Collins and other treaty factions believed that although this peace treaty was not satisfactory, Ireland was still a "free state" rather than a republic, and for example, ceding Northern Ireland. However, the Empire of Sun-Don't Set still made concessions.
Another thing that angered the Irish people was that Irish public officials must be loyal to the British king when they took office. What I heard was that compared to the status of the free state and the cedes of Northern Ireland, there was the most controversy in this regard.
From the perspective of outsiders, the content of "The Peace of Ying-Love" is actually acceptable.
The sun never sets at this time, and Ireland is close to me and cannot receive direct support from major powers. At that time, only the Soviet Union recognized the "Republic of Ireland". So it was quite good to have this result. After the signing, even the Harding government expressed its appreciation.
From the perspective of time travelers, the Irish were at a disadvantage. Because the British Empire was not as glorious as it seemed. If the Irish continued to toss and struggle, they might not be able to get better results.
But how many people in the world can have the "hindsight" of time travelers?
However, however, nationalism itself is a political perception that appeals to sentimentality and has no reason to say.
Collins tried to reason with the radicals, but in the end he was burping.
But then again, people are all nationalist and if you don’t need nationalism to confront each other, the ending will be to become the bird-like appearance of my Qing Dynasty. Unless you use a class theory that is more effective than nationalism.
There is no best in both worlds. You either surpass the nation or the class, and don’t think about reconciling these two contradictions at the same time.
You want MAKE AMERICAN GREAT AGAIN, and you want to suppress the rednecks' big redneck sects. This is a stupid thing that even His Majesty Trump will not do...
“Pickup.”
"Hahaha..." Collins smiled awkwardly, "Dr. Yuan, you are worthy of being an excellent political observer."
Yuan Yanshu smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Collins, as an excellent political observer, I want to remind you that the peace talks have not officially begun yet. The release of "The Lonely of Famine" is your bargaining chip, not your burden."
Collins said in a little embarrassedly: "Dr. Yuan, I understand this principle. But judging from the scripts I have seen, the inflammatory nature of this film is too strong. We and the British finally reached a ceasefire agreement, if that is..."
Really, it’s all my fault for both of you to fight to death? I wish you could fight for a longer time.
It's true that this guy is the intelligence supervisor of the IRA. Without his cooperation, Operation Tai Sui can only execute the first half, which is the part he told the members of Cyris. In fact, Operation Tai Sui has the second half.
Our Master Yuan interrupted again, "Mr. Collins, let's do it. I happen to have the masterpiece of "The Lonely Girl in the Famine", so I'll put it for you. After you finish reading it, let's discuss this issue with me."
"Dr. Yuan, this..."
Without waiting for the other party to refuse, he stood up, opened the bedroom door, and said to the inside, "Lilian, Catherine, you guys come out."
Yuan Yan first introduced the two parties to each other, and then hung a white cloth on the wall of the living room with the big star and female writer as a screen, and then set up a projector.
"Pu"
Finally, he turned off the lights in the living room and started the screening.
“Buzz buzz…”
With the buzzing sound of the motor turning, a little boy sitting on the moon fishing appeared on the screen. The hook he threw fell into the pond, and the ripples formed the English name of DreamWorks "DREAM WORK".
The fish hook swings, and new ripples form on the water - Director: David Lu'erin Griffith.
Screenwriter: YANSHU YUAN.
Starring, Lilian Gish...
After the cast and crew list passed, a golden light appeared on the water.
