1914, 3rd 1st, around 8 o'clock.
The traveling delegation of the respected Portuguese Emperor Pedro III and Queen Mary visited Los Angeles, the oil-rich energy city.
Los Angeles is the largest city in the western United States, known as the City of Angels and the City of Energy. It is also the city with the largest Latino population in the United States and the largest support base for the American Liberal Party.
As one of the important centers of industry and commerce, international trade, science, education, entertainment and sports in the United States, Los Angeles is home to the world's film center, Hollywood, and world-renowned higher education institutions such as the California Institute of Technology.
This city has been very Latinized. Although English is still an important language in the city, the Spanish and Portuguese components are increasing rapidly.
After the Liberal Party took control of the political power in the west, under the secret influence of Downing, it began large-scale Latinization and began to actively accept refugees from Latin America as a productive labor force.
The most indispensable thing in Latin America is refugees, especially from Mexico next door and some banana republics living in dire straits. Their poor people are pouring into the western United States crazily.
This era in the United States is an era of great immigration. Thousands of people come here every year. The influx of various populations is a normal phenomenon. In addition, the west is originally a heavily Latinized area, so the top US officials do not pay much attention to it.
this phenomenon.
As the Latino population gradually grows, the Liberal Party's ability to control the West has become stronger and stronger, and it has become a presence that cannot be ignored in American politics.
Today's political and regional divisions in the United States are becoming more and more serious. The North, South, and West each have their own forces, forming a tripartite force.
Latinos gathered in the western United States. Because of their close trade ties with Portugal and their similar cultures, they were very interested in and actively absorbed the music, culture, politics and other ideas from Portugal.
The citizens of Los Angeles were very happy about the visit of Portuguese Emperor Pedro III. They gathered at the port pier to warmly welcome the Portuguese Emperor.
“Welcome His Majesty Pedro III, Emperor of Portugal!”
"His Majesty Pedro III is now the first Latin emperor!"
“Your Majesty is welcome to visit the energy city of Los Angeles again!”
…
"Tangning, are the people of Los Angeles so welcoming to you?"
Mary didn't quite understand the crowd at the port that wildly welcomed Tangning Pedro.
Although we know that the western United States has close exchanges with Portugal, and even though the United States and Portugal are now close to falling out, the trade exchanges between the two sides have not decreased and continue to increase.
Although the relationship was close, Mary still couldn't figure out why this group of western American citizens liked a foreign emperor so much.
The United States is a country with a presidential system, and the concept of freedom is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is not very interested in the emperor system!
"Sister, I know this because many of them work under the company of our Emperor."
Charlotte held her sister's hand and shook her head and said.
"Sister, the largest property in the west is the Minsheng Consortium, and the Minsheng Consortium was founded by brother Tangning.
Although my brother split it up before leaving the United States and changed the legal person of the consortium to another person, it was actually still under his influence. Even the Liberal Party has been secretly controlled by his brother.
We have stayed in the United States for a long time, mostly in the west, working here and there for a long time, working in the education system, media and public opinion, scientific research and development, social politics..."
"Ahem! We're not talking about these things now. Let's get off the boat first."
Tangning spoke up and interrupted their chat.
Looking at the huge crowd at the port and the energetic security guards, Gawain knew that he couldn't keep these fanatical people waiting.
Today's show must be done well.
"Get ready to let the people in the western United States take a good look at our style!"
"Well, I'm ready!"
Mary said confidently that she had been practicing for a long time.
"Then let's get started!"
‘Se Deus quiser, há-de brilhar
In the will of the Lord it will shine
De novo a Coroa sobre as Lusas armas
The crown once again crowns the coat of arms of Lusitania
Que a nossa Pátria soube, sempre honrar
It will always honor our motherland
Que a nossa Pátria soube, sempre honrar
It will always honor our motherland
tempo de vontade e sacrificio
This is a time of will and sacrifice
Para a alma Portuguesa renascer
For the rebirth of the Portuguese spirit
E em nossos cora??es o nobre oficio
The noble cause in our hearts
…’
To the accompaniment of the Portuguese national anthem "God, Fatherland, Emperor".
A group of mighty honor guards lined up first, and then got off the ship in high spirits.
Tangning, who was dressed in a formal dress, held Mary's right hand wearing a white glove. They were accompanied by Cecily and Charlotte.
Before disembarking, keep the height outside the string of the ship.
Tangning first took off his hat and waved to the crowd, while Mary waved her left hand to say hello to the crowd.
The crowd on the pier saw the emperor and empress greeting them cordially, and they were crazy, shouting and joyful.
"Let's officially disembark."
Originally there was only half a minute to disembark, but Tang Ning and Mary had to take three minutes. During these three minutes, the two of them disembarked from the ship in a dignified manner that paid attention to etiquette, but did not forget to continue greeting the crowd.
When I got off the ship and stepped onto a new red carpet.
Mark, the mayor of Los Angeles and an important member of the Liberal Party, walked quickly towards the Portuguese Emperor and Queen from a distance with excitement.
Tangning and Mary, led by the attendants, walked forward slowly and soon met with Mark.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Welcome to the great and respected His Majesty Pedro III! Welcome to the beautiful and noble Queen Mary! Welcome to the Portuguese Travel Mission to Los Angeles."
Mark expressed his welcome in a flattered tone.
Tangning responded in a friendly tone: "Well, Mark, long time no see. Congratulations on becoming the mayor of Los Angeles!"
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor, for giving me the opportunity at my last moment. I will never forget your kindness."
Tangning and Mark naturally knew each other. He was Mark's benefactor and the person who initially helped him.
Mark is of Mexican origin. He left the chaotic and impoverished Mexico and entered the United States with an American dream. As a result, he was repeatedly tortured by American society, his savings were exhausted, and he almost became a shameful tramp.
Mark is a law professor at a university in Mexico and a well-known lawyer, but these qualifications are not applicable to the United States.
The laws of the United States and Mexico are different. Even if they are the same, noble American lawyers and judges will not treat Mexicans.
Mark spent money and time, and finally got the relevant certificates, but in the end no one came to him and was willing to hire him. And his American colleagues did something to him before he even opened the business, without giving him any help.
Opportunity.
After Tangning came to the United States, especially after arriving in the West, he was like forming a Latin team. He recruited talents from all over the world. As long as they were decent, could be considered talents, and had qualifications, they would all be given the opportunity to get started.
As long as they pass relevant tests, they will be included one by one in Minsheng Group, which is rapidly expanding and in need of talents.
Mark was lucky enough to pass the test, join Minsheng Group, and become a member of the legal department. Later, he won an important lawsuit for the group and was interviewed by Tang Ning.
When being received by Tang Ning, who was still a prince at the time, Mark was very nervous, excited, and a little panicked.
Although Mark won an important lawsuit for the group, he had also lost two preliminary local lawsuits before, and his ability was criticized by some colleagues. However, the Legal Department, following Tang Ning's suggestion, asked for more trial and error for the rookies.
Chance.
As long as you don't lose five lawsuits in a row, you should give the rookies a chance to try and make mistakes.
Anyway, Minsheng Group is very wealthy and has cooperated with some chaebol consortiums to infringe on the patent rights of some small companies. What if it gets sued?
Which chaebol in this era has not done this? How can we become bigger and stronger without bullying small companies?
Who is afraid of a lawsuit?
From the most basic county court, to the state court, to the U.S. Supreme Court, there is plenty of time to wear them out, and it doesn't matter if they lose one or two games.
Tang Ning knows Nanshan Pizza Hut very well.
Tangning met with Mark and talked with him about some life ideals. Knowing that Mark had some thoughts on entering politics, she encouraged him.
After experiencing torture in the United States, Mark was inspired to join politics and change American society's prejudice against Mexicans.
Tang Ning expressed her great admiration for his ideals, but asked him to accumulate fame first, and would arrange some opportunities for him to fight ethnic lawsuits so that he could cultivate his reputation among the people.
Mark originally thought that being the European Prince was just for talk, but he didn't expect that he was soon introduced to a political section of the judicial department and began to pave the way for him.
After the establishment of the Liberal Party, Mark became one of the first members. Later, as the Liberal Party expanded and slowly rose.
Mark also received dividends from the Liberal Party, and with his truly outstanding abilities, he quickly became a senior member of the Liberal Party and has now been re-elected as mayor of Los Angeles for two consecutive terms.
The Liberal Party's policies were initially under the banner of freedom, but after gaining a firm foothold, it should begin to learn from Portugal's two-party doctrine and rapidly capitalize the country.
Under the banner of Western Unification, all states are called upon to unite, develop the economy together, and form a community. Instead of engaging in internal strife, they must concentrate their efforts on common development.
Why is the West not important in the American political situation? It’s because it is divided, discordant, and mutually exclusive. We all obviously come from the same origin, so why bother engaging in internal strife?
After the Liberal Party changed its policy, the People's Livelihood Foundation provided financial support and actively responded to their policies. Soon their seemingly ridiculous policies began to take effect.
Nevada, Arizona, and Colorado are the driest and most backward states in the United States.
The Liberal Party calls on businesses and people in the west to donate money and work together to build a comprehensive water conservancy project on the Colorado River to change the drought and water shortage situation in the three regions and inject vitality into regional development.
Minsheng Group responded positively, and some conscientious people also made donations.
The Liberal Party took donations, used funds openly and transparently, and with the technical support of Minsheng Group, built the Colorado River Comprehensive Water Conservancy step by step.
It took five years for the Liberal Party to finally complete the second phase of comprehensive water conservancy construction under the eyes of Westerners, and then announced that it would temporarily abandon the third phase.
Because of the two phases, enough changes have been brought to the three regions of Nevada, Arizona, and Colorado.
Abundant reservoirs, sufficient electricity, and vigorous development of newly discovered oil and mineral resources have made the three backward areas full of vitality.
The influx of immigrants from Latin America has also provided them with a huge labor force.
Cheap labor, government preferential treatment, combined with the various benefits brought by the Coronado River, the economies of Nevada, Arizona, and Colorado began to take off.
After the Liberal Party has made achievements, it will naturally become more stable in the west. Its support rate is rising steadily, and it has completely begun to monopolize the vote base in the west.
