The British Empire is an old-fashioned imperialism. If you really want to do something, Newfoundland can completely retain it.

Alan Wilson stood up happily. Whether he can stop the tendency of the British Empire to fall freely depends on the Newfoundland referendum. If you include Wen of the same species, you can't keep Newfoundland, who has no ill feelings towards London. Alan Wilson is still Go to sleep early, you can't keep a dominion with such a good foundation, and other colonies are even more difficult.

And from the news revealed by Pamela Mountbatten, Alan Wilson felt that London seemed to have a change in Newfoundland's position. Although it still did not take much initiative, it was not in line with the history of almost forcibly pushing Newfoundland into the arms of Canada. In comparison, it is already a big improvement.

"I always thought that all London was stupid, so it seems that there are still people doing things?" Alan Wilson asked inexplicably, "How did the attitude change?"

"Could it be that some people believe that there is oil in the waters near Newfoundland?" Pamela Mountbatten said to herself, but she didn't have a clue, "The news was released, but we all know that there is no oil in the waters of Newfoundland. ."

"In the final analysis, the problem lies with the residents of Newfoundland, and the idea of ​​London is secondary." Alan Wilson put his hands on his chest and thought, "Let's take the little change in London's attitude as a good thing for the time being, but Mainly it depends on what the people of Newfoundland think, my dear, I have achieved the purpose of this trip to the United States, should we go back?"

The reason why I feel that London has changed its position lies in the timing of the referendum. As well as the time when the crown prince and his wife came to Newfoundland, this can be understood as the first wave of goodwill for Crown Prince Elizabeth, and then the opportunity to let Newfoundland vote.

From this point of view, the time of the Newfoundland referendum and the election of the U.S. general election were within a month. At that time, the biggest thing in the United States was the general election, and there was no leisure to care about the outside world. The Republican Party and the Democratic Party regarded each other as the biggest enemy, let alone Newfoundland. Chang Gong faced two of the three major battles, both before and after the U.S. election.

When the election results in the United States came out, Chang Gong had already lost a crushing defeat, and was then shoved into the garbage by the winning Truman.

Every presidential election, candidates have to invest a lot of time, energy, and financial resources, make speeches to gain popularity, and canvass votes to raise funds. However, at the moment of defeat, all efforts are instantly in vain, and the loser not only has to bear the burden Personal failure will also live up to the expectations of millions of supporters, and the psychological pressure can be imagined.

To be honest, Alan Wilson does not believe that the loser can be regarded as the same thing. You must know that Churchill MP in the House of Commons has always wanted to regroup and take the Prime Minister back from the Labour Party.

It's just that the difficulty facing Churchill is increasing. Alan Wilson even copied the third-ring diplomacy and gave it to Attlee directly. If the results of Newfoundland are gratifying, the chance of Churchill's comeback will be even smaller.

The most dangerous thing for politicians in this world is to stand on the wrong side. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand, you only need to be patient for a few months, and Chang Gong will use himself as an example to educate politicians all over the world.

Alan Wilson has even prepared a pseudonym, ready to help Chang Gong make a name for himself in the major British colonies in the form of Chinese and English subtitles. This is not the first time he has done this kind of thing. Working hard, can India be as famous in the world as it is now?

I believe that with the help of his foreign friend, Chang Gong will raise his popularity in the world to a higher level in this decisive victory over thousands of miles away.

He did not return to Newfoundland immediately, but kept in touch with Boston and London. From a front-line perspective, he explained to London that the election this time was not as simple as it seemed.

After three telegram communications, the London side approved his explanation as the Boston consul. At this time, Alan Wilson could feel at ease and return to Newfoundland to continue to be his chief executive.

As a hard-working chief executive, Alan Wilson must return to his post immediately and take an important step to change history, and he is agitated for this.

"You're amazing today!" Pamela Mountbatten was very satisfied with the state of her self-motivated fiance at this moment, and praised her from all angles.

"The thing that bothers me the most is that you are going back, but Newfoundland is really too boring." Alan Wilson sighed, expressing his understanding of Pamela Mountbatten's idea of ​​returning to London.

"When the time comes, I will come here with the crown prince and his wife. It is short-lived, dear." Feeling Alan Wilson's reluctance, Pamela Mountbatten offered a kiss and said, "I will go back and see what stage the Comet airliner has reached. Well, maybe I will come to see you as a jet airliner in the future."

"You don't want to sit without going through a rigorous experiment." Alan Wilson shook his head solemnly, "I told me before that airplanes are different from trains and ships. In the final analysis, they are the product of confidence. We must ensure safety, for the sake of It is worthwhile to do more preliminary preparations. Not only must the preliminary preparations be in place, but also large-scale production must be prepared. At present, there are still many British colonies. We can sell these passenger planes, and we can even ignore the profits at the beginning. , adopt the method of small profits but quick turnover, as long as we occupy the market first, and we sell one, it is equivalent to the market where the competitor loses one. When the competitor dies, won’t the profit be ours?”

A world without discomfort will stagnate; a world that is too fair in some ways will be horribly unfair in others. There are no problems to worry about in a utopia, but there are also no opportunities for a utopia.

Regarding this attempt to seize the passenger aircraft market this time, Alan Wilson deeply understands that it is unrealistic to want to kill Boeing all at once. If he can dominate the European aviation market, plus some orders from the British colonies, even if it is Big win.

Even if Boeing only relies on the US market itself, it will still live well, not to mention the overwhelming influence of the United States on the entire Americas? Being able to achieve the status of Airbus in the future is already Alan Wilson's biggest attempt for the current Comet airliner, and killing Boeing is simply unrealistic.

Whether this first-mover advantage can be used well depends on how much Pamela Mountbatten can use the power of the nobles.

Compared with Airbus decades later, the Comet airliner has a huge advantage, that is, the Comet airliner should have appeared earlier than the Boeing airliner. Boeing to some extent helped set the norms for civil aviation.

The design habits and operating habits of some Boeing aircraft have naturally penetrated into the hearts of pilots. The majority of pilots naturally think that Boeing can fly and be beautiful! An airplane like Boeing is an airplane! The entry of Airbus brought the concept of telex and overturned the previous pattern of Boeing.

It's not a matter of sooner or later, Boeing is early, Airbus is late. Europe and the United States pay more attention to intellectual property rights.

Something used by Boeing is absolutely forbidden for Airbus. For example, there are many toggle switches in the Boeing cockpit, and there are many buttons in Airbus. Not necessarily an ergonomic development, but more of a patent issue.

The switch for the exterior lights Airbus also took the form of a toggle switch, but in the opposite position to Boeing's. Boeing is open forward and closed backward, Airbus is the opposite.

As long as the Comet airliner appears in front of the Boeing airliner, it will be able to get rid of the patent restraint of the Boeing airliner on the Airbus airliner decades later. This alone has a great advantage, reaching the status of Airbus in the civil aviation market. Comet For an airliner, it shouldn't be too difficult.

"If Mr. de Havilland thinks that the cost of the investment is too high, you can pay a higher price than the market to buy the company's shares as compensation." At the St. John's Wharf, Alan Wilson sent his fiancée aboard the ship. road.

He also knew that de Havilland had such a little bit of confidence. Maybe it was because he wanted to bring the Comet airliner to the market sooner, or it could be for other reasons. Anyway, he was a little dissatisfied with the current progress and investment in various tests.

But Alan Wilson already knew from history that de Havilland's idea would have disastrous effects on the comet airliner.

If a passenger plane is shot down, it is not a big deal, after all, it is an external factor. But if there is a design problem, it can be devastating for a company.

"Don't worry, my dear, I will not fail in all experiments." Pamela Mountbatten felt Alan Wilson's sincerity and said, "I promise by Mountbatten's surname that I will follow your request. "

"It's not my request. Your career makes you have to do it. I'm a civil servant, and I'm not a plane maker. What can I ask for?" Alan Wilson corrected Pamela Mountbatten's statement, when did he become him The request, obviously using Pamela's money to do Pamela's affairs.

Besides, it would have been better if de Havilland was impatient and asked Pamela Mountbatten to take the risk as compensation.

There is also an opportunity to expand the Mountbatten family's stake in the company. At present, due to the high investment due to a large number of experiments, Pamela Mountbatten has occupied more than 30% of the shares.

Standing at the dock, Alan Wilson~lightnovelpub.net~ waved at the departing cruise ship, waiting for the Crown Prince to arrive in Newfoundland.

Relevant preparations can begin now, repeating the previous work, inculcating not a small but a great speech through the broadcast, and continuing to follow the example of the permanent referendum to win thousands of miles away, and the Persian Gulf Commissioner Barron, Malaya Commissioner Jella Liaison with the Commissioners of Germany and other British colonies.

While waiting for the Crown Prince and his wife's trip to Newfoundland, mankind hopes that the election in the United States is becoming more and more enthusiastic. The fierce war between India and Pakistan continues, and the situation in Palestine is becoming more and more tense.

The days of key politicians are so busy, and things in Newfoundland are instead the jobs where Alan Wilson takes up the least amount of time.

At this time of expressing fraternity to the whole world, time is passing little by little, and the temperature is rising in tandem with the heated election campaign in the United States. After the Philadelphia Democratic Party Convention, Truman became the Democratic Party candidate with great difficulty. people.

In the face of the one-sided optimism of Dewey in public opinion, the stubborn Truman did not admit defeat, but devoted himself to the speech tour. He wanted to prove that miracles could happen.
