However, this close comrade of Salazar did not contact Alan Wilson. The British gentleman left the manor and was about to wander around Lisbon, judging that this small country with a population of less than nine million was also a colonial power. Portugal, the current real state of society.

"There is still such a place in Europe!" Alan Wilson couldn't help but sigh. Statistics are only one aspect of it. Only by seeing it with his own eyes can he have a clear understanding of the real situation in Portugal.

Although he considers himself to be traveling from south to north, Alan Wilson has never been to the capital of Brazil, but Lisbon is really no better than the colonial capitals of British Africa, which have already prospered in real estate.

What is certain is that although Salazar solved the problem of frequent deficits and social instability.

But the time of the whole Portugal seems to be stuck before World War II, and nothing has changed for so many years.

When you haven't changed a bit, your neighbors are advancing by leaps and bounds. Colonial history has made the consequences clear. In this era of peace, Portugal naturally does not need to worry about being annexed. But if it keeps going like this?

Ingrid Bergman wearing a headscarf and sunglasses, although this kind of dress is not uncommon in Portugal, but her outstanding height also makes the disguise only cover her ears and steal the bell. This is still her feeling of taking care of the deputy secretary, wearing flat shoes. the result of. .

The two are like tourists, walking around with the attitude of bystanders. As for the bodyguards, they follow not far away, without disturbing the good mood of the female president. Professional bodyguards must have the excellent quality of Sanmao. Don't watch it...

Knowing that 50 percent of Portugal's population meets the definition of illiterate, Alan Wilson stood in front of a school for a moment before deciding to wander around.

Domingos, an elementary school teacher, sits in his modest house, which is connected to the school building, both of which are modern buildings.

He looked across the road at the house where his colleague Susan lived. Susan's work schedule was quickly settled. It turned out that the teacher who was going to be transferred to Mr. Fei Le's primary school refused to come, and Su temporarily filled the gap.

Susan's transition to a permanent teaching position must be approved by Principal Filler. She taught for about two years in London, and although she recently quit, it is hard to say that she is a layman in teaching; He had only been working together for three or four weeks, and he already wanted her to stay.

In Domingos' eyes, Susan was so smart; what industry master wouldn't want to keep a colleague who could save him half of his energy?

They had been in class like this for a few weeks, and although it was monotonous, he had a lot of fun with it.

Just one day the school received a notice to take the students to Christ Church to see a traveling exhibition of models of Jerusalem. Taking into account the educational effect, each student can enter the venue for a penny. So the students lined up two by one to go.

Susan walked beside her class, holding a simple sunshade with her tiny thumb hooked to the handle. Domingos, wearing a crumpled suit, followed behind, shaking his cane gently.

When he came to beat her, he had been uneasy and thought about it. This afternoon, the sun was shining and the dust was cloudy. When I entered the exhibition room, there were not many people except them.

With enthusiasm, he saw Susan talking and laughing to a man and woman, introducing the situation of the school.

"Ms. Susan has worked in the UK, and it is admirable to return to Lisbon to teach today." Alan Wilson was also lucky, and even found a female teacher who had worked in the UK.

"Mr. Allen, you and this lady look like people in the upper class. We have limited conditions here, don't mind." Susan was a little embarrassed and tried her best to maintain her dignity.

"High society? That doesn't count!" Alan Wilson shook his head, neither he nor Ingrid Bergman were considered a member of high society, of course, in the eyes of ordinary people, that was not wrong.

Reaching out some pounds and giving it to Susan, Alan Wilson stopped the other party's refusal with his eyes, "Miss Susan, thank you for your reception, which gave me a certain understanding of Portugal."

The most profound understanding is that, given the current basic conditions of Portugal, the population is less than 10 million, and the mainland is like a large rural area, but there are 300,000 troops, which are struggling to support the operation of overseas colonies.

Allies like Salazar deserve help from the British side, and in terms of labor costs, this European manpower depression is not without value.

Alan Wilson donated 500 pounds, and took a world map of the school by the way, clearing the suspicion of giving alms.

At this time, Alan Wilson only saw Domingos who was not far away. There were many women of the same status as his wife. He could see that kind of admiration in his eyes. He smiled and returned to take the world map. Susan teased, "Miss Susan, this should be your admirer."

"He's just my colleague!" Susan explained embarrassedly with a blushing face.

"I can't see it wrong, especially this kind of gaze." Ellen Wilson said, and glanced at Ingrid Bergman, who had not spoken, and rolled her eyes behind her sunglasses, but this did not delay her nodding. .

"Look!" Alan Wilson, who was recognized, laughed and expressed his congratulations in an old-fashioned manner. Then I waved goodbye to my new friend today.

Ingrid Bergman followed behind the man and whispered, "It's five hundred pounds for a shot, but you're full of money."

"Part of professional image management shows my love for the civic class." Alan Wilson's mouth curled slightly, and he opened the car door first and let Ingrid Bergman get in the car first, and then got in by himself.

On the way back, Alan Wilson opened the world map. Sure enough, one of the most important artifacts of the key ruler is the world map. Some vague ideas immediately became clear.

It is known that the automobile industry is a large employment industry. Because of the exchange rate of the British pound, the amount of travel in the United Kingdom cannot be matched by Germany and Japan. After the exchange rate of these two countries is normal, the automobile industry has already been established, and the process of attacking from the bottom up has begun.

In later generations, there seems to be a term called the developed country smasher. It is not the first time that Britain has encountered this.

Alan Wilson moved to a Land Rover production line in Malaya and placed it as the first stop for Japanese companies to go to sea.

But this is still not enough. He has a way to deal with the Japanese cars, but another important factor for the Japanese cars in the future is the pickup.

The demand brought by such models as pickups is one of the reasons why the production of Japanese cars is overwhelming the German ones. Of course, pickup trucks in the American market are still dominated by domestic car companies. Pickup trucks in the United States are equivalent to Wuling in a major country. Such a position.

Excluding the U.S. market, pickups are also widely used in Africa, especially North Africa, and the Middle East.

Land Rover doesn't currently have such a model, but it doesn't matter, the deputy secretary said that there will be one soon, and he will naturally have it.

Comparing the position of Portugal, it is not satisfactory. There is no better position, but it is not as easy to use as Portugal. It is impossible for the UK to control France, and it is also impossible for Italy, which is close to North Africa.

But it is ok for Portugal. The Portuguese have long been accustomed to the existence of British capital. If you start from Portugal, it is easier to go to the North American market. The location of Portugal can take into account both North America and North Africa, and there is no problem in terms of sales path.

Combined with the fact that Portugal's European labor costs are currently in a depression, a sense of promise comes to Alan Wilson's mind.

And Portugal has such a small population, even smaller than the Malayan colony, concentrating on one model can bring great changes to Portugal.

In later generations, Germany and Japan, which were founded on the automobile industry, accounted for one-fifth of the German economy.

The proportion in Japan is even larger, reaching a third of the size. Once the field of fuel vehicles is squeezed, both countries will have major problems, and Japan is definitely the more miserable one.

Germany has a population of 80 million, and Japan has a population of over 100 million. The annual output of German cars is less than 20 million, while the Japanese cars are more than 20 million. Portugal has just under nine million people. Knowing one model is enough to get Portugal out of the Indian situation that Gandhi dreamed of.

"You can go west to North America, and you can go to North Africa after crossing the Mediterranean Sea." Alan Wilson took the conversion of Portugal's per capita salary and suddenly found one thing, Portugal's per capita cost is cheaper than the current Malaya.

When Caetano came to the manor~lightnovelpub.net~ Alan Wilson had already determined the strategy of the pickup. In the context of globalization, any resource can be bought, and the lack of resources in Portugal is no longer a big problem.

"Sir Wilson, the Prime Minister wants to have an interview with you." Caetano said directly when he saw Alan Wilson.

"I really have a good thing to discuss with the Prime Minister." Alan Wilson also responded happily, "In order to show sincerity, I will keep it a secret for now."

Caetano was stunned, and he smiled bitterly for a long time, "Then I hope that the friendship between England and Portugal will last forever."

"It should be like this!" Alan Wilson put away the world map he bought for five hundred pounds, the human resource depression in Europe, and now it will be included in the British planning system. Investing in the Portuguese auto industry is a bridge to open up the African auto market.

Salazar did not expect such an unexpected scene. He originally wanted to discuss with Alan Wilson about the international situation in the United Kingdom, but he did not expect to start with industrial development. He even had an illusion that he was facing A minister in the Portuguese government, Sir Wilson, the editor-in-chief.
