After arriving in Nyasaland, Winston unexpectedly discovered that Roque, the Minister of Defense, seemed to have a lot of free time. Not only did he have time to accompany Winston to wander around all day long, but he also had time to play with the children to increase their relationship.
He will even focus more on business development. It seems that Rock is not as busy as the legend says.
"In addition to me, the Ministry of National Defense has three deputy ministers, more than twenty department directors and deputy directors, and a hundred department directors and deputy directors. If I have to do everything by myself, what else do I need them to do?" said Roque, who is used to being a hands-off shopkeeper.
, the three deputy ministers each perform their duties, and if something goes wrong with the part that is responsible for it, it is the responsibility of the person who has it. There is really not much work that Roque must handle personally.
Moreover, in the international environment of Southern Africa, looking at the surrounding areas of Southern Africa, the Kingdom of Mozambique, the Kingdom of Congo, and the Republic of Congo can be regarded as a satellite state in Southern Africa. Rock stomped his feet, and the three satellite states would tremble three times.
To the north of Victoria is the British East African Protectorate. Like southern Africa, it is a British overseas territory and has no defense needs. The only hostile area around southern Africa is Portuguese West Africa, but Portuguese West Africa is definitely in the shadow of southern Africa.
I also tremble at the sight of southern Africa.
So now Roque is drawing his sword and looking around at a loss, but his mood is definitely different from Li Bai. Li Bai was depressed, angry and depressed. Roque has no opponent and is alone in defeat. He can't just throw away Portuguese West Africa or Portugal without an excuse.
Madagascar dragged him over and gave him a good beating.
"No, this is irresponsible!" Winston was also depressed. When he was Prime Minister, he worked conscientiously and walked on thin ice.
"I am giving full play to the subjective initiative of my subordinates." Rock said plausibly. Winston was constrained by Congress, but Rock had no scruples. Even Adelaide and Philip did not care about Rock, and others were not qualified to do so.
In fact, the key lies in the fact that there are no problems with southern Africa's national defense. If there is a problem, Roque will certainly be duty-bound to go all out.
It is not without problems. For example, in recent times, new immigrants in Mesopotamia have been threatened by Ottoman resistance forces, and businesses in Madagascar have also been harassed by local resistance forces. In Portuguese West Africa, Africans have resisted Portuguese colonial rule.
The riots have also had a certain impact on businesses in southern Africa.
However, these problems are all under control and will not cause much harm. There is no need to dispatch the Southern African Defense Forces. The local armed forces can completely deal with them.
It was only after the preparations for the film began that Winston realized how troublesome it was to shoot a film.
Mainly due to communication with the screenwriter and director, Winston wanted to film his inner panic and struggle during the World War, and his final gesture of turning the tide and completing the feat of leading the British Empire to defeat the Allies.
The screenwriter and director were unable to express the feeling that Winston wanted. There was a huge gap between the Winston they understood and the "Winston" in Winston's self-understanding.
"Your writing and directing skills are so bad. They can't make the "Winston" I want. They are either hysterical or cowardly. I feel like they will make me into a schizophrenic.
Rather than a prime minister who leads the empire out of the quagmire of war." Winston's understanding of himself is not sufficient, and his self-positioning is not clear enough.
"They have never been Prime Minister, how can they accurately understand your mental journey." Roque was not surprised. Nyasaland Film Studio is actually in its infancy, and they were given such an arduous task from the beginning. It is normal for them to fail to complete it.
"If the photo is not accurate enough, I would rather not take it." Winston is very demanding and does not allow even the slightest flaw.
Rock burst into laughter. The problem was not that the screenwriter and director were not demanding enough. The problem was that Winston's demands were too high, or that Winston himself was concerned about gains and losses. He was worried that the movie would not achieve the expected results when it was released.
It’s like asking an online writer to be incompetent. It’s completely unrealistic. Think about a novel with three to four million words. If you’re not good at it, how can there be so much information? It needs twists and turns, rich experiences, and emotions.
Abundant, the key is to be highly productive——
Those who can do it are gods!
"Winston, relax, you have to give the screenwriter and director enough trust." Rock always leaves the problem to the experts. In fact, it doesn't matter whether there is a movie "Winston" or not. Wait until the British Empire encounters a similar crisis again.
When the time comes, members of Congress will naturally think of Winston.
I just don’t know if Winston will still be willing to save the British Empire again.
Most likely they will.
Rock will not participate in the filming of "Winston". The election is about to begin. Rock will stand for Philip in this election.
During the last general election, the Progressive Party and the People's Party formed a new party in an attempt to compete with the Liberal Party.
The Liberal Party's advantage was unshakable, the new party only received less than 10% of the votes, and Ade was successfully re-elected.
This time the Progressive Party and the People's Party tried to win over the Nyasaland Party to form a united front and continue to compete with the Liberal Party. Unfortunately, the candidate introduced by the Liberal Party was replaced by Philip. The Nyasaland Party has no desires and desires. It is estimated that the Progressive Party and the People's Party
You will get nothing.
"The Progressive Party and the People's Party simply don't have suitable candidates. People with relatively high reputations have publicly stated that they will not run for election. The final candidate is Dr. Starr Jameson." Congressman from Nyasaland Party
Congressman Ultraman Brewster took the initiative to report to Rock that the general election for members of Congress was over. There were now nine members of Congress from the Nyasaland Party, and their strength was unprecedentedly high.
"Dr. Starr Jameson is not dead yet?" Rock was surprised. News of Starr Jameson's death was reported twenty years ago, but he did not expect that Starr Jameson is still alive now.
"No, he's living well." Ultraman Brewster was also speechless. After all, Starr Jameson is also the leader of the Progressive Party. Rock actually doesn't know Starr Jameson's life and death. If he dies,
I'll definitely publish an obituary in the newspaper.
Rock nodded. He really didn't know about Starr Jameson's life and death. The Progressive Party was relatively powerful in the Cape, but it really wasn't enough in Congress. Now it's even worse than the Nyasaland Party.
It is no wonder that the Progressive Party wants to unite with the Nyasaland Party, but it is a pity that Roque is indifferent.
"How is Philip's election?" Roque should pay more attention to Philip, who is also his father-in-law after all.
"I have been optimistic all the way, unrivaled. The only person who can compete with Philip has given up on his own initiative. No one can shake Philip's advantage." Ultraman Brewster also has no desires and desires. The Nyasaland Party wants to get ahead in Congress.
Difficult, unless Roque quits the Liberal Party and joins the Nyasaland Party.
In fact, the Nyasaland Party in Parliament is stronger than it appears on the surface.
In addition to the Liberal Party and the Progressive Party of Nyasaland, the Southern African Congress also has members from other parties, such as the Labor Party headquartered in Bechuanaland State and the United Party headquartered in Lourenço Marquez, each of whom has its own representative in the Congress.
Two MPs, these two parties are allies of the Nyasaland Party and can merge if necessary.
Bechuanaland, like Lourenço Marquez, has a major population of Chinese people, so the party naturally has a natural tendency.
If Roque quits the Liberal Party and joins the Nyasaland Party, then there will definitely be a considerable number of Liberal Party members who will follow Roque. Not only does the Nyasaland Party occupy a majority of seats in the National Assembly, but also if it joins forces with the Progressive People's Party
, it may not mean that there is no effort.
Roque nodded. Being the prime minister was Philip's obsession. He had been thinking about it for more than ten years. If he couldn't fulfill his dream, Philip would probably die in peace.
In the past two years, Philip's health has been deteriorating like Adelaide's. After all, they are both in their sixties, and there may be problems one day.
Philip's performance as Speaker of the National Assembly was still very good. At least he did not cause too much trouble for Adelaide. Philip is also indispensable for the development of southern Africa to the present.
Roque is not making political deals. Even if Philip makes a mistake as prime minister, Roque and Ade will correct the chaos in time. In southern Africa now, no matter who is the prime minister, it will not affect the rise of southern Africa.
.
"That's good, do your best to help Philip get elected, and ignore the small moves of the Progressive Party and the People's Party. They won't make a big difference." Roque looks down on the Progressive Party and the People's Party. After this general election, the Progressive Party only has the most power in Congress.
There are only three seats left, and the People's Party has only two left. It is possible that the Progressive Party and the People's Party will disappear from the political arena of Southern Africa in the next general election.
"Actually - we -" Ultraman Brewster hesitated. Rock had no ambitions for the position of prime minister, which does not mean that others in the Nyasaland Party did not either.
Everyone knows that Roque is Adelaide's chosen successor. If Philip were not Roque's father-in-law, then Philip would have no chance to run for prime minister.
Nyasaland's level of economic development is second to none in southern Africa. In the past few years, the Transvaal was on par with Nyasaland due to its rich natural resources. In the past two years, the Transvaal has also been gradually replaced by Nyasaland.
Pull open.
However, in southern Africa, Nyasaland does not enjoy treatment commensurate with its status. This is fully reflected in the allocation of the Ministry of Education. Nyasaland has always received the lowest allocation.
Douglas, the current Minister of Education in Southern Africa, has a very good relationship with Roque. Douglas is helpless on this point. Compared with the education in Nyasaland, there is a huge gap in other states. Douglas wants to have a bowl of water, but he also hopes that Nyasaland
Lanzhou can provide appropriate help to other states.
Rock raised his hand to stop Ultraman Brewster from continuing. Regardless of whether Rock argued or not, after Phillip, Rock would definitely take over.
Roque is only over forty now, so he still has plenty of time.
