After listening to Lu Shi's point of view, everyone pondered.

"So, Mr. Lu thinks the United States is far less powerful than he thinks? ”

It's a very difficult question to answer.

On the one hand, the British see the United States as a staunch ally;

On the other hand, the British looked down on the United States, because the independence of the United States benefited from the struggle between Britain and France for hegemony, and if the unjust head of the French country stuck a knife in both sides, the militia of the United States would not be able to defeat the British army at all.

In short, it's a very contradictory emotion.

The trend of thought in the UK is so distorted, as an international student, it is better to keep his views as much as possible.

A hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and he asked the other party rhetorically: "Mr. Backer, have you ever heard the saying, 'Your competitiveness depends on the opponent you choose'?" ”

Bakr scolded the little fox secretly, and then replied, "I haven't heard of it." But it's not hard to guess what it means literally. ”

Lu Shi nodded,

"So, is the United States strong or weak? This is not a question for me, but for all the English gentlemen here. Because Britain and the United States are in a relationship of cooperation and competition, the essence of insulting the United States is insulting Britain, right? ”

He had already thought about it, and he would not answer any question that might fall into the pit.

Playing Tai Chi, the Chinese are grandfathers.

Buckle and Doyle couldn't help but look at each other, and the depression in their hearts couldn't be overwhelmed.

After a moment of silence, Bakker spoke again: "Then let's get back to the topic we just talked about." What do you think about Britain's self-confidence, Mr. Lu? ”

This is a thief's heart that does not die......

Lu Shi was amused in his heart, and decided to tease the other party,

He said: "I heard that the International Coalition of Women's Electoral Societies was founded in the United Kingdom three years ago. ”

Feminism!

Good!

Lu Shi, this kid finally showed his liberal fox tail!

Everyone at the scene was excited.

Scott frowned slightly, feeling that the topic of women's rights was too dangerous, and it was better not to touch it.

He coughed lightly and said, "Mr. Lu, don't say much about what you don't understand." ”

This hint was too naked, and Buckle immediately realized that what Lu Shi was going to say next must not have been reported to Cooper and Scott in advance, and it could not have been prepared in advance.

This situation is the most likely to show off.

Buckle interjected: "Mr. Scott, today's salon is just for everyone to speak freely, how can you gag people's mouths?" ”

With that, Buckle walked over to the gramophone and put on the record.

Accompanied by elegant classical music, the scene does have a bit of a salon atmosphere.

Lu Shihao tidied up his clothes and said casually: "In 1890, the state of Wyoming in the United States already allowed women to have the right to vote in local elections. And the British ...... Alas......"

Bakker's face flushed with excitement,

Say!

Keep talking!

He almost broke Lu Shi's mouth and let Lu Shi continue to spit left-wing remarks.

Unexpectedly, Lu Shi suddenly shook his head, and the words changed: "It's not right, who said that the American system is advanced?" Can you have self-confidence by studying blindly? ”

The so-called "two mouths of the media",

On the positive side, Britain learns from the advanced and dares to admit its shortcomings, which is a manifestation of self-confidence;

On the other hand, Britain does not have to be defined by other countries as advanced, which is also a manifestation of self-confidence.

The eerie silence of the room,

Bakker's mouth was wide open, as if he could eat two salted duck eggs.

suddenly

"Ahh

Scott couldn't help but burst out laughing.

As editor-in-chief of the Manchester Guardian, what could be more enjoyable than seeing the editor-in-chief of The Times deflated?

It's worth it to be able to participate in this Rausch salon with Lu Shi today!

Scott looked at Buckle like a clown, and said in his heart that this old boy sang and did a fight, and he didn't take advantage of anything, and now he has almost used eighteen kinds of martial arts, and when it is time for afternoon tea, he simply let him stay cool.

He said to Lu Shi: "Mr. Lu, I appreciate some of the methodologies you have for the rise of the United States, and I would like to invite you to write for the Manchester Guardian. ”

As soon as the words fell, someone next to him also spoke: "Mr. Lu, you can consider the Daily Telegraph." ”

This man's name is John Le Thatch, and he is the editor-in-chief of the Daily Telegraph.

Founded in 1855 and published by the Telegraph Company, the Daily Telegraph was the largest selling of the nation's "high-class" daily newspapers in Britain and the mouthpiece of the Conservative Party.

Thatch is going to dig the foot of the wall in public.

Scott's eyes flashed, and he said in a low and dangerous tone: "Old John, the Daily Telegraph is compactly formatted and extensive, and the articles are shorter than the Times and the Manchester Guardian. And Mr. Lu's editorial must be a tome article, and it is a little unsuitable for you there, right? ”

Thatch sneered,

"Not adapted? If you want to serve the soil and water, then Mr. Lu's article is the most suitable for the Financial Times. ”

It's a mockery.

In modern times, the Financial Times is undoubtedly one of the most professional newspapers in the world, with large articles, mostly elite readers, and extremely high prices.

But in Britain in 1900, this kind of professional newspaper was only third-rate, or even not in the stream.

Thatch said to Lu Shi: "Mr. Lu, for the sake of your article, we can publish a column. ”

This invitation is very sincere.

I have to say that Thatch is indeed the number one person,

In the midst of the Great Controversy, he was at the helm of the Daily Telegraph for 36 years, from 1888 to 1923, no worse than Scott.

Such a person will not have a bad vision.

At this time, he had already seen that Lu Shi was neither conservative nor free,

Because when Lu Shi discusses feminism, he is more like a musician from the perspective of a bystander, or a simple utilitarian, so he can try to win over.

Thatch didn't reply when he saw Lu, and added another fire,

"An editorial, £30."

Everyone gasped,

£30!?

A veteran writer from the Palace of Westminster is probably at that price.

What a daughter to buy horse bones!

Lu Shi glanced at Thatch deeply, and secretly realized in his heart,

It is true that you can fool by relying on the foresight of the traverser, but if you talk about resourcefulness and courage alone, I am afraid that compared with these top people in 1900, I am afraid that you may not have an advantage, so you must be extremely careful in the future.

On the other side, Scott was also a little anxious,

He said: "We at the Manchester Guardian bid £35 for an article. ”

Both sides are on the bar.

Lu Shi didn't want to be roasted on the fire, but at this time, it was even more impossible to say that he didn't write.

He pondered for a moment, walked over to Scott, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Scott, can I write for both sides at the same time?" ”

Scott frowned in thought.

For a long time, he looked at Thatch,

The latter seemed to understand, paused slightly, nodded slowly, and then got up and said, "Mr. Lu, Editor-in-Chief Scott, we will discuss the specific matters later." Excuse me. ”

With a bowler hat in his right hand, he bowed apologetically and slowly left the room.

The crowd was stunned,

Someone whispered, "Sharon...... Not...... Is this the end of Sharon? ”

With these words, their eyes were all locked on Doyle.

Isn't the protagonist today Sherlock Holmes?
