British 1986
Chapter 49 Reward
After the AB version became popular in the United States, the video tapes of the B version were exported to the domestic market and flowed back to the UK from the United States.
He, Allen, can cut the leeks of the British old men again.
This is all a waste of money.
As for whether his reputation will be ruined by version B?
Version B was shot by an American, so what does it have to do with Mr. Allen?
This was obviously a side project by a shameless American businessman who was jealous of Mr. Allen's talent and followed suit. He, Allen, was the victim!
Even for the sake of insurance, even the Black Rose Film and Television Company registered by Allen is a one-time use!
When this time is used up, it will be packaged and sold to the destined American wrongdoer at the right time!
And Karl Lao is also hiding in the dark. On the surface, the person who recruited the San Fernando Valley crew this time is an American businessman.
Among them, through layers of subcontracting, it has nothing to do with Allen.
Times are different now, communication technology is not that developed, and there are not even online trolls.
Allen can only do this kind of operation secretly by himself, and use the external popularity to export it to Great Britain to increase his reputation.
At that time, the fame belongs to him, Allen, and the blame belongs to the Americans!
After doing this, you will have fame and money!
As for Allen, he just made an ordinary movie that cares for middle-aged and elderly British women. It is not explicit or vulgar.
All other things have nothing to do with him!
Although everything was still planned, Alan was in a good mood and waved for Old Karl and Huter to follow him. He did not rush back to the room, but walked to the side hall next to him.
This is the Hill family’s little room of honor.
On the walls on both sides of the hall, there were oil paintings of the Earls of Carmarthen. Alan walked to the armor display cabinet at the end of the side hall and stopped.
This is the armor of the first Earl of Carmarthen. Although the manufacturing process of hundreds of years ago has been maintained by modern means, the armor has long lost its former luster and looks a bit shabby. Some places have been corroded.
But the large rust stains on the armor are caused by the large amount of indelible blood seeping into it, which is also the merit of the Hill family.
Standing in front of the armor display cabinet, Allen put his hands behind his back, thought for a while, and slowly said: "Karl, Hut."
"Master, I'm here!"
Allen slowly turned around and looked at Old Karl and Huth in front of him.
These two are old servants of the Hill family, but the first half of their lives belonged to his father, the old earl.
Not his Alan's.
The relationship here is essentially different.
The two of them are still not as close as Xiao Shitou and Allen.
It's not that they are loyal to the old earl. When the old earl is gone, they must be loyal to Allen.
If this were the case, then the emperors of all dynasties in China would not have gone to great lengths to kill the ministers and generals who had started their careers with them to pave the way for the prince.
People's hearts will change!
Just like the old Earl's sudden accident, many interpersonal relationships in the Hill family were also interrupted with the old Earl's departure.
People have a relationship with the old Earl, or have a good relationship with him, but they don't necessarily have to be on good terms with him, Allen.
This is not a matter of recognition or not, it is a lack of transition and inheritance.
At that time, the old earl had been taking Brother Allen to do this. He frequently took him to various banquets and explained that so-and-so was so-and-so and what the relationship between the two families was. This was called a transitional relationship and a handover relationship.
Only when the older generation comes forward to endorse and explain in person can such relationships be passed down from generation to generation, and these relationships are not static.
Allen is missing this link.
What he has to do now is to start from home, from the two old servants in front of him, and he wants to show mercy.
"You two have been loyal to the family for decades. I know your contribution well!"
"Hu Te. Your application for this year's knighthood hasn't been submitted yet, has it?"
Hu Te seemed to have a premonition after listening to Allen's words, his heartbeat accelerated a little, and as soon as he spoke, his voice changed a little.
"Master, not yet. Just apply before Christmas. Our family has not applied for it for many years."
In ancient Britain, border earls like the Hill family, who had military power, could confer titles on their own.
For example, for knights, lords, and barons, if their subordinates have made great contributions, the earl can reward them and then report it to the king.
The highest possible title is a baron.
But the Hill family is a bit special. They are a family of the Crown Prince's bodyguards, and they are in an "enemy country." Their subordinates are all sent directly from London, so they are considered a direct subordinate.
Although their family has such rights, they basically cannot use it.
There are so many Welsh people around, so who should I seal it for?
Are the prince's personal guards colluding with local forces?
The king asked the Hill family to come here to monitor the place and protect the crown prince, not to unite the place. This is the essential difference. To put it bluntly, they are lonely ministers.
Later, this right of the nobles was withdrawn, which had little impact on the Hill family. It was basically useless anyway, but they still retained the right to apply.
The general idea is that although the Earl of Carmarthen can no longer award knighthoods on his own, he can submit an application, and after the Queen agrees, he can use the Queen's name to award the titles in a unified manner every year.
This is a change of process, but it is essentially the same. In theory, you can apply every year, up to three applications per year, and you can only apply for a baron at most.
but..
It is too difficult to apply for a baron now, but it is easy to apply for an ordinary lord.
This is why Allen was so confident in promising a knighthood to Syphis and the others. In theory, he could apply for such a thing every year!
This is the biggest trump card in the hands of the old British nobles, and it is also the thing that common people dream about most.
For ordinary people in the outside world, every title of Lord is an honor that cannot be obtained even after a lifetime of effort. No reward will be given to those who have not made great contributions and made great contributions!
"Huter, Karl, in the name of the contemporary Earl of Carmarthen, I grant you the title of Honorary Companion."
As Allen's voice sounded, Old Carl looked at Allen blankly, and his hands began to tremble with excitement. The title of Honorary Friend is the lowest noble in Britain, but...
As long as you take this step, it is a class leap!
From now on, he is no longer a commoner, he is a noble!
Although he is the lowest noble.
Hu Te knelt down at Allen's feet and said in a respectful voice: "Hu Te will be loyal to the young master and will shed the last drop of his blood for the family!"
Old Karl looked at Hu Te's movements and suddenly woke up. He was only too excited and forgot to thank him!
He quickly followed Hu Te's example, knelt on his knees, and thanked him honestly.
"Thank you, Master, for giving me a new life. I will shed my last drop of blood for my family!"
"Ha ha!"
