In order to show his importance, Alan Wilson took his wife to the exhibition hall of the Soviet Commodity Exhibition. The exhibition hall was very large, with everything from heavy trucks to Soviet watches. The two wandered around with great interest to see the things in another world.

What can people use?

"You attach great importance to this exhibition." Pamela Mountbatten held her husband's hand and walked while saying, "It seems that domestic problems are indeed more serious, and all attention is focused on Eastern Europe."

"Traditionally, Eastern Europe is an important source of raw materials for Western Europe. We cannot break away from the development of Eastern Europe." Alan Wilson replied calmly, "We will not be able to find new markets in a short time. We must try to return to the previous market.

It happens that the Soviet Union is reforming and adopting a détente strategy externally. France and Italy are secretly colluding with the Soviet Union. It would be foolish for us to remain indifferent. The current problems at home are worse than those in Malaya. Richard just reported to me a few days ago

, last year’s statistics have come out, and the development is very good.”

"It must be due to the demand of the war. Singapore's oil refining center and Malacca's automobile manufacturing have all been driven by huge demands due to the war." Pamela Mountbatten also knew about this, because she established the Sarawak Development Bank herself.

Yes, the demand and funds brought by the war were the basis for her to dare to withdraw funds from the Sarawak Development Bank and follow the French to fish in troubled waters.

Without the influx of US dollars into Malaya, Pamela Mountbatten drained all the funds from local banks, which would pose a certain degree of risk. Although it is not a big deal compared to the total assets of the richest woman, it is inevitable that she will be in a hurry.

Everything was different again during the Vietnam War.

Under the current technology, Britain's growth has reached a bottleneck and there are signs of economic stagnation. Malaya has also benefited from the outbreak of the Vietnam War and continues to advance by leaps and bounds.

Alan Wilson also knows that the income gap of several times will inevitably narrow as time goes by, and there is no way around it.

"If the war lasts for ten years, will Malaya's economy surpass that of the mainland?" Pamela Mountbatten asked with a smile, "At that time, should we consider where Malaya's future economic growth will be?"

"Don't think about it. It's easier over there." Alan Wilson shook his head, thinking that after the Vietnam War was over and the United States had not brought down the Soviet bloc's number two thug, it would be ready to put aside its past grievances.

By that time, will Malaya still lack a market? It is obvious that it will take off again. Not only that, Alan Wilson also wants to help Malaya get some special treatment. In fact, there is nothing excessive. If a big country wants to benefit from Xiangjiang, then

It should also benefit the Chinese in Malaya.

How much should be given to Xiangjiang should be given to Malaya according to its population base, and the previously confiscated British capital must be returned. Just multiply it by two.

Considering his good impression of the Chinese world, Alan Wilson will not show the ugly face of imperialism. The figure of twice the compensation is not excessive. A certain big country can refuse, and it can be replaced by technology developed after the founding of the country, such as something similar to light

In exchange for the patent of the engraving machine.

In exchange for the British, the British can also give some advice on patent protection issues. If those who have a good life find out that they have no patent awareness, just wait until the wool is picked up.

During the period when the country was first opened to the outside world, all enterprises in a certain big country were almost completely wiped out by the Japanese. The losses were simply incalculable.

Alan Wilson will then prepare a patent-sharing contract to bundle investment intentions. With Britain, an old imperialist, joining in, it will be difficult for Japan to take advantage. Sharing is better than being paid for nothing.

This is not about taking a loss or not. Can you change the family without paying a price? Repeatedly jumping around without paying a price. If you have such a good thing, you must tell him next time. He also wants to find such an environment.

The couple finally stopped in front of a truck with a very fighting ethnic style. Both pairs of eyes were full of interest in this model of truck, "What do you think?"

"It seems very reliable." Alan Wilson pondered for a long time and gave this word, "It has an old American style."

"American products are our Soviet products." Pamela Mountbatten joked that the traditional industrial United States was not Europe's rival.

Pamela Mountbatten directly asked about the details of this truck. Apparently the Soviet staff were also trained in English. The truck is powered by a D12A-525 water-cooled diesel engine with a displacement of 389 liters and a maximum power of 386 kilowatts, which is similar to that of a main battle tank.

The engine is of the same model. Behind the engine is the transfer case and hydromechanical gearbox.

In order to improve the ability to pass on rough roads, the vehicle is equipped with a central tire inflation system. The suspension is a torsion bar independent suspension, and the first and second axles are equipped with double-acting cylindrical shock absorbers. It adopts a dual-circuit air-hydraulic braking system and a hydraulic power steering system.

.The cab is equipped with an independent heating system, engine preheater and three-proof equipment.

With so many black technology blessings, the car can work in the ambient temperature range of -40 to 50 degrees Celsius.

It can carry 20 tons and run at a maximum speed of 60 kilometers per hour. At the same time, the vehicle has a maximum climbing grade of 57 degrees, a vertical obstacle crossing height of 0.78 meters, a trench crossing width of 338 meters, and a wading depth of one meter. These indicators even exceed those of the same period.

There are many crawler vehicles, which fully reflect the excellent performance of this all-terrain heavy-duty truck.

"The Soviets are very down-to-earth. This must be a product converted from military to civilian use, otherwise this indicator would be a bit excessive for a civilian heavy truck." Alan Wilson came over to talk to his wife, and the two exchanged a look, and the meaning was obvious.

Buy it and see what is unique about the Soviet Union in the automobile industry.

Continuing to walk around the exhibition, a group of onlookers in front caught the attention of the two of them. They took their wives' hands and squeezed in. A small car that should be a taxi was the culprit that caused the onlookers to watch. Listening to the Soviet introduction, this

It is a kind of see-through taxi, which seems to be an elongated version of an ordinary taxi. It looks very strange, which is why it attracts onlookers.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Alan Wilson also felt novel, but he was not interested because he had never seen a taxi of this style in his memory, and it should belong to the category of concept cars.

Finally, Alan Wilson stopped in front of a row of Soviet-made cameras. He remembered one thing. The Soviet Union's technology in the optical industry came from Germany, and Germany was the country with the strongest optical industry in Europe. In this era,

Japan is much stronger, and the Soviet Union's optical technology should have come from the period of cooperation between the station and Germany.

Even if it cannot be compared with the current German optics, it should not be much worse. The fact that Kodak made it look ugly is not a matter of this era, but a scene that only appeared in the late Soviet Union.

"What's wrong?" Pamela Mountbatten came over and saw a row of cameras. For her, she could enjoy the best things in the world and didn't know what her husband cared about.

Alan Wilson had already taken out the small note he always carried with him and wrote down, "Get ready to place an order for cameras from the Soviet Union. German products are too expensive. The Soviet Union is more reliable than Germany in this field."

The Soviet Union was not in short supply of everything, and the plan could not take care of everyone's needs. Some products were lacking in the Soviet Union, but there were also some products that the Soviet Union had an exaggerated surplus of. Cameras of this era were one of the Soviet Union's very surplus products.

The Soviet Union made its fortune by imitating old German optical technologies such as Zeiss and Leica. Eventually it began its journey to kill originality. The fact is that after the Soviet Union became rich by copycatting, the cameras it produced were ten times that of Germany. This The brand camera was later named "Kiev" by the Soviet Union. Naturally, this kind of camera became the people's camera because of its huge production capacity.

This kind of good stuff should break out of the Soviet Union and go to the world. It would be a pity just to keep it in the Soviet Union. Trade is about learning from each other's strengths and complementing each other's weaknesses. This is also the purpose of this Soviet commodity exhibition.

Even the supreme authority is working for the welfare of British citizens anytime and anywhere. Why don't the five plainclothes who come in at the same time not learn from him? Naturally, they all follow suit and write down all the products they are interested in.

The next day, the Soviet Commodities Exhibition made headlines in major newspapers. The pictures of Soviet commodities in the newspapers aroused the interest of many people. The exhibition will continue for another week, and the fermentation in public opinion has attracted more people to go. Soviet exhibition hall.

Alan Wilson knocked on the door of No. 10 Downing Street with a list of more than 50 categories of goods, ranging from mechanical watches to cameras, children's toys, heavy trucks, and even lamps, and met with the Prime Minister. Harold Wilson discusses developments in economic and trade relations.

"Did you go to the showroom in person?" Harold Wilson was a little surprised, then he took the list with a smile and said while looking at it, "It seems that you are very satisfied with the products you like."

"More than satisfied, I feel that some products obviously have excessive performance." Alan Wilson pointed to the photo of the Soviet mechanical watch. "The Soviet Union claims that this watch is waterproof, which is within the normal range. It also claims that the strength exceeds 200 meters. The water pressure is very low, I don’t understand this. Are you planning to jump into the sea with your watch?”

"Compared with similar products in Germany, the price of the camera is only one-fifth, and any British person can afford it. We also have to admit that the enemy also has a side worth learning."

"Trade does not exist. We only import and do not export. We have Soviet goods, but we also need to export to balance trade. Brown and I are ready to talk about this matter." The Brown in the Prime Minister's mouth refers to George Brown, the Secretary of State and Secretary of Economic Affairs.

Theoretically, the United Kingdom only wants to import raw materials from the Soviet Union, but at this exhibition, the British have discovered that the Soviet Union is no longer the imperial Russia in the impression that it can only export raw materials.

While Londoners are still following the trend of visiting, internal discussions have begun on how to expand economic and trade relations, and Whitehall is also evaluating how to circumvent Batumi's constraints.
