The Lord of the Rings?!

A man like Salisbury is clever and forbidden, of course he knows what this is at a glance, it is a set of books, it is a very good novel that sells now, and it is said that the author of this novel is Mark Twain, and now ......

Here's the set!

The whole set of "Lord of the Rings" novels is not completely out now, but one by one, and now the third book is out, so this whole set has become very strange.

What does that mean?

But since someone gave it, let's flip through it, anyway, this novel is said to be very good.

“…… I don't have any insinuation in this book, anyone who says that I allude to certain countries and certain nationalities, that is completely slander, naked slander! I'm going to be angry! …… So, the half-orcs in this book are definitely not Russians! …… The evil spirits in this book are definitely not Germans! ……”

This one...... It's a preface, but this preface is very special!

Salisbury's mind is really counted in England, how could he not see the purpose of this preamble, now it seems that even if he doesn't want to think in that angle, it can't help it.

Look!

Salisbury opened the book and quickly skimmed through it......

"Oops! I understand! ”

The so-called good reading does not seek to understand, there is an explanation that people who are good at reading, they are the kind that read very quickly, Salisbury at this time is very fast to read this set of books, and after reading it, think of the previous preface. Salisbury really gets it!

"Great Clint. Your Majesty Li I! Let me pay my most sincere tribute. You're ten times smarter than me......"

The next day. Of course, Salisbury still has to meet with Li Mengyang, but this guy has been patting for a long time.

"Hehehe......" Li Mengyang smiled, of course he had to laugh, "Mr. Salisbury, have you read that set of books?" ”

"Look! And I've got it too! Your Majesty wants us to make the British Empire sell this book vigorously in Europe, right? Salisbury also guessed.

"Well, sales pitch is a matter of course." To be honest, Li Mengyang was a little impatient at this time, because Salisbury didn't get to the point. Therefore, Li Mengyang prompted, "Mr. Salisbury, have you forgotten another thing you saw before?" ”

"Something else?" Salisbury briefly remembered, and then, he suddenly thought, "Could it be a movie?!" ”

"That's right! Make this book into a movie! Li Mengyang almost said, congratulations, you will answer the ......

One of the purposes of Li Mengyang's trip to the UK is actually this. Didn't he say it before, he was going to make this "Lord of the Rings" into a movie.

But. At this time, the film has just been born, and the overall technology is not yet mature, and this brings a problem, that is, if you want to shoot something, it is definitely very expensive!

This is certain, even if Li Mengyang doesn't understand movies, but he understands this truth, so now he still wants to make this "Lord of the Rings" into a movie, what should he do?

Amortize the cost!

It's not nice to say, that's to pull a Kaizi and be wronged...... In.

This is the easiest and best way, and there is one such goal in front of us, which is the British Empire!

There are naturally many reasons why the British Empire is looking for the big one, and Li Mengyang is also very sure that the British Empire will definitely be interested.

First of all, the current British Empire, or the British Empire in the future, will always adhere to that principle, which is the balance of power on the European continent, and they British are gloriously isolated.

Now the main thing to deal with is the Russians, in fact, it is not how powerful the Russians are, but mainly because they are too capable.

The strength of the Russians is actually very problematic, their economy is not very good, but in terms of foreign wars, they are quite capable of fighting, which is strange, so the British can only deal with this guy first.

And in fact, Salisbury, of course, knows that there is another guy on the rise, and that is Germany!

You know, Queen Victoria of Britain is a king, and the monarch of the German Empire is called the emperor!

Salisbury knows this, knows about the rise of Germany, but Germany can only be put in second place now, because these guys are very good at grasping that degree.

You see, in the Franco-Prussian War, Prussia had the opportunity to directly defeat France, and Napoleon III had already recognized it, but the Germans retreated, signed the contract and ran away, is this normal?

Bismarck!

Yes, Salisbury knows that guy, Bismarck, this old thing is definitely an old fox, he sees the British strategy!

Bismarck saw the policy of the balance of power on the mainland very thoroughly, so at that time, he proposed to accept it when he saw it, just because he didn't want Britain to find an excuse.

In fact, many things in Europe, such as the anti-French alliance, are behind the hands of the British.

But in any case, this force needs a minimum excuse, you don't have anything, so how can you do it? Against anyone's alliance, you have to be able to pull up this alliance, at least you have to make everyone feel that the guy we are against is indeed a big bastard, right?

The Germans did a good job, especially Bismarck, who always refused to allow the British to take any chances.

So now...... If this "Lord of the Rings" can be made into a movie, if this movie can be released in Europe, this ...... It's a movie!

What a novelty, it will definitely be seen by countless Europeans!

That's right, Salisbury quickly figured out the truth here, how much attention does such a new thing have to attract?

And so many people, they will all get a good education at once, and they will all treat the Russians, the Germans, after watching the movie. Treat them all as big badas!

Definitely. Because this novel is so perfect...... All right. In fact, this is Li Mengyang's re-creation, he wrote this insinuation more obviously, and he also got a lot of help from Jews.

Well, these Jews are also very bullied in Germany, and now that all of Europe is anti-Semitic, of course they don't hesitate to contribute some ideas of black Germans.

Well, wouldn't that be great, how awesome!

The British Empire could not have found a good opportunity to engage the German Empire. But now, someone has helped them, and the effect is going to be quite good, really good.

But not ......

"Great Your Majesty, I really want to ask, what is your true purpose?"

Salisbury asked such a question, and apparently the guy seemed to smell something unusual.

"Hehehe......" Li Mengyang smiled, he looked at Salisbury and smiled.

This Salisbury is indeed a smart guy, arguably the top smart guy in the UK!

People in general. I wouldn't ask that question, or rather. Even if he had this question in his heart, he wouldn't ask it.

Because ordinary people will estimate that Li Mengyang, this emperor is not an ordinary person, and this issue itself is not too important.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to deal with the Russians anyway, and the Germans? And even if he asked, can this guy Li Mengyang tell the truth?

That's right, the key is here, the probability of Li Mengyang telling the truth is not ordinarily low.

So, how will Li Mengyang answer?

"Mr. Salisbury." Li Mengyang's expression was very solemn at this time, "I know that the alliance between us can be said to be fragile, and there is not much trust between us, which I also admit." However, the problems between us can be put aside now, and now we have to work together for the time being to face a stronger opponent, right? ”

This statement, this answer, is really moving, and Salisbury believes it, but he still needs a reason.

"The Russians may have coveted your country for a long time, but what about the Germans?"

This question is good, and the details are grasped, but Li Mengyang smiled.

"That Bakunin used to be Russian, and he was active in Germany, right? These guys aren't too friendly to us yellows. ”

That's a good answer, but Salisbury's memory is good.

"Then why did your country give Germany low tariff treatment?"

This thing...... Li Mengyang can't tell the truth, but it's not ......

"Because in this way, the German side will also give us low tariffs. In addition, because of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, it is inevitable that our empire will have to cooperate with the German side, just like we do with you. ”

Salisbury's expression was a little strange in this answer, but he couldn't help it.

"Your Majesty! We're going to be able to make a good work! ”

The matter of the movie has been negotiated like this, and as for who pays how much...... Li Mengyang thinks that your British Empire should give more money, and then we will give more technology, anyway, we will not suffer losses.

Li Mengyang took a ride in the golden carriage in the UK, which can be regarded as quite popular, and then talked about a movie plan, you must know that this thing is definitely the first of human beings, and after that, he was not idle, Li Mengyang went to visit the British hospital, especially the maternity hospital......

This one...... Kind of weird, right? A gentleman, an emperor, to see someone give birth?

No way!

Li Mengyang didn't want to, but now he has to go!

The reason is simple, the birth rate at this time is too low!

Let's talk about the American region of the Pacific Rim Commonwealth, where the population is growing now, but at a very slow pace.

Negroes, the reproduction ability of those guys...... Oh, that's a bit of a wrong word, I should say that their abilities in that area, especially the black people are black and hard, and the old man is rough, it's just ...... Li Mengyang is not envious, he also has a big radish.

However, how many years has it taken for the number of blacks to rise from more than 9 million to more than 15 million?

You know, this is an era of peace, and the American Civil War has long since ended for itself.

So, what is the reason for population growth? (To be continued.) )
