Chapter 302: Reproducing the Technique of Flickering (Asking for Subscription)

A depressed director, a mysterious Skull Island rumor. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Witnessing these familiar elements, Li Xiao naturally thought of the movie "King Kong".

The story of the movie tells the story of 1933 in the United States, an adventurous entrepreneur and filmmaker Carl, who led a film crew to a desert island to shoot, including the heroine Ann and screenwriter Jack, who encountered dinosaurs and local natives attacking, and Ann's screams in exchange for King Kong's response. This huge orangutan is a little afraid of even the fierce dinosaurs, but it loves Ann. Ann then brought King Kong back to New York from the desert island, but it was the beginning of his tragic fate......

The most impressive thing is that after the gorilla King Kong was brought back to the United States, in order to escape the pursuit, he climbed to the top of the Empire State Building and hit ~ the classic scene of the plane.

The story conveyed by this movie is a typical Hollywood adventure and love story, and it has a taste of some bestial love.

When he realized this, Li Xiao suddenly felt that the sky was thundering, you must know that he is now in the movie world of "The Mummy", why did a story line of "King Kong" pop up halfway?

At first glance, the two seem to be a bit of a bull's head, but when you think about it, both timelines and backgrounds are very similar. It is because in the early 20th century, the Great Depression and the spirit of blind exploration inspired everyone to explore unfamiliar areas and open up unknown living space. ”

Thinking of this, Li Xiao finally cleared his thoughts, and couldn't help but nod secretly, and at the same time had a strong interest in the Skull Island.

I have to say that the Skull Island in the movie is very magical, and even a little whimsical, on this island that humans have not set foot on, there are not only dinosaurs in prehistoric times; A huge orangutan that is more than 10 meters tall and weighs 20 tons, and even insects such as spiders and scorpions have risen to the size of adults.

Except for the natives inside, the rest of the creatures, such as spiders and scorpions, are also gigantic, which makes people marvel, I really don't know what kind of fairy herb elixir they eat to grow so big?

……

……

"Lee, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Li Xiao's somewhat distracted expression, Scott asked with some curiosity.

"It's nothing, I'm just sighing at the wonder of fate, I once met him on the street." Li Xiao came back to his senses abruptly and explained with an indifferent smile.

When he met Li Xiao again, Carl was also stunned, and at the same time, he also wondered in his heart, what kind of identity he was, and he was able to compete with Scott. Rothschild, head by side, appeared here.

Then Li Xiao turned his face straight, turned his head to Karl and asked, "I heard that you have a map to Skull Island in your hand?" ”

"That's right... How would you know, though? Carl nodded at first, but then his pupils shrank suddenly, and his sweaty palms subconsciously clenched his bulging trouser pockets, but as soon as he said this, Carl shook his head a little consciously and stupidly: With the strength of the Rothschild Group, there is still any news in this world that they can't find out.

Karl simply no longer hid it, and said eloquently: "That's right, I have a navigation map. I won a bet with a sailor friend over a drink. As far as I know, this is the only record of an unknown island that we only thought existed in mythology, until now. ”

"Wow, that sounds a little too unbelievable, a lot like the story that aired on the "One Thousand and One Nights" radio drama at six o'clock in the evening. Hearing this, Scott's brows frowned slightly, and he couldn't help but sneer, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Obviously, Scott has a lot of doubts about what Carl said, thinking that this is nothing less than a fantasy, because Scott's elite education since childhood, including the graceful and luxurious life he has received now, is based on materialistic technology and finance.

"Mr. Scott, this is not a definitive conclusion. You must have seen the legends and secrets recorded in the archives, and apart from some uncertain legends, some of them have been confirmed to exist. Immediately, Li Xiao expressed a different opinion.

Taking Li Xiao's words into his ears, Scott couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Indeed, when the file was submitted by his subordinates, he also personally reviewed the purpose, and some rumors and clues were mentioned in it, which was also confusing and incredible. But there are quite a few of them, but they have been proven. Perhaps, there are really many unsolved mysteries in this world?

"I'm talking about a primitive world that people have never seen before, the ruins of an entire civilization, which will be a sight you have never seen before, and my greatest ambition is to shoot movies there!" When he talked about it, Karl seemed to be opened into a conversation, gushing about his plans for a blockbuster film, and his eyes showed a look of fanatical yearning.

Carl firmly believes that this Skull Island is real, and that when he is at his most difficult, it is like a morning star in the sky, illuminating his direction.

Skull Island is more like a ladder to realize his ambitions, and he is not willing to shoot those vulgar bullshit love stories.

"Don't beat around the bush, I'm willing to pay 100,000 US dollars to buy your Skull Island map." Li Xiao directly threw out a large amount of price.

Bid $100,000 to buy an unproven route map?

The group of men in black present, even including Scott, were slightly stunned, and it was not uncommon for the Rothschild family to spend a lot of money to auction precious collectibles at some antique exchange meetings.

However, Li Xiao's move was even too childish in his opinion.

But then again, Scott would not doubt Li Xiao's strong financial resources, after all, he could conjure up half a room of priceless gold and silver treasures with a casual move, and his mighty wealth seemed to Scott like a huge bottomless pit.

Such an inhumane act can only be explained by being rich and capricious!

……

……

"One hundred thousand?"

Karl was dumbfounded and swallowed deeply.

A full 100,000 US dollars, if there is this fund, it is enough for him to shoot several documentary films, how can it not be tempting. But after a moment of hesitation, Karl smiled and said in a slightly tactful tone: "Your Excellency has offered me a price that is almost difficult for me to refuse, but it is equally important to realize my dream of filming...... If you want to go to Skull Island, can you take me with you, if you can take me, then 100,000 can be compromised, I only need 50,000. ”

For this huge price, Carl is indeed moved. But he also firmly believes that if he can rush to Skull Island to shoot a documentary, it will definitely cause a huge sensation, turn the tide, win the box office, and become restless. So he did everything he could to go to Skull Island.

Seeing this, Li Xiao couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and he glanced at the incomparably determined look on Carl's face, which seemed a little unexpected.

"It seems that his obsession with making movie masterpieces is really not ordinary, with such tenacity, he may really become a top director like Spielberg in the future."

Li Xiao raised his hand and rubbed it on his chin for a while, and after a moment of silence, he lowered his hand again, nodded and agreed: "Okay, then follow what you said." ”

In fact, if Li Xiao really wanted to take the route map, he could stun Carl with one palm and snatch it from him, but he also wanted to know what kind of sensation his documentary would cause when it could be put on the big screen.

"Great, thank you!" Carl smiled joyfully and rubbed his hands together excitedly.

Seeing this scene in his eyes, Scott's heart was full of doubts, and he wanted to speak several times and stopped.

……

……

Subsequently, after paying Karl two gold coins taken from the pharaoh's tomb, Li Xiao also obtained the route map drawn on parchment.

After spreading out the map and taking a closer look, Li Xiao found that the location of this skull island was near Sumatra. Although the general location of the area is known, the specific sailing route still needs experienced navigators to formulate, and this ocean-going expedition is not a simple matter, whether it is equipment or materials, it needs to be well organized.

After sending Carl away, Li Xiao and Scott got into the car they had come, and the car started and drove away from the suburbs in the direction of the crowded Wall Street with the sound of the engine whistling motor.

"Do you want to ask me why I'm obsessed with this route map?" In the back seat of the car, Li Xiao took the lead in breaking the silent atmosphere and spoke.

"I... There is indeed such a doubt, why did Li you identify the route map that does not know the authenticity? Scott finally expressed his doubts.

Li Xiao smiled slightly, with a somewhat mysterious tone, and brought out the words that he had originally thought in his heart: "Actually, I know a set of oriental divination secret techniques. ”

"Know the past, know the future? Could it be tarot divination similar to that of a gypsy? Scott smacked.

"It's a little similar, but it's not the same. Gypsy divination is the result of using the astrological principles of tarot to speculate on possibilities based on the shape of the line. However, the art of divination can not only predict the future, but also know the past, and the treasure in my hand, the place where it is buried, is what I have speculated using the art of divination. Li Xiao explained.

"Your divination skills can understand the past?"

"That's right, if I'm not mistaken, the Ling clan has this family motto: once money is in the ring, bad words will stop abruptly." "As long as you are united, you are invincible; The day you break up will be the beginning of your loss of prosperity. "And so on." Li Xiao closed his eyes slightly and pinched his fingers pretendingly.

"Did you calculate these family precepts?" Scott felt a burst of panic, and couldn't help but prop himself up from the saddle, as an elite cultivated aristocratic class and family successor, these family mottos were instilled in his consciousness by his parents since he was a child, how could he be unfamiliar. It's just that as the cornerstone of the rise and fall of a family, these family mottos are strictly confidential and tight-lipped as a bottle, except for what is said in the family, it cannot be passed on, so how did Li Xiao know? Could it be that he can really understand the things of the world, it is really terrible!

Li Xiao nodded undeniably on the surface, but secretly laughed in his heart. This Rothschild family motto is of course a secret in this era when the news is relatively closed, but in the post-modern era when the Internet information is developed and convenient, many nobles' family mottos and secrets have been made public, and they have become people's after-dinner conversations, and Li Xiao also saw it in the magazine by chance.

After seeing Scott's disfigured appearance, Li Xiao added: "Don't worry, I'm not from the business circle, and I'm not interested in the family's business secrets, and besides, this divination and calculation technique is very draining, and I haven't reached the point where I have fun with pinching." ”

After suppressing the discomfort of being spied on, Scott smiled and said, "We are partners, how can we not worry about you." ”

"That's why I bought that map on the spot, and if I set foot on that island, I might be able to open the door to a new world!" Li Xiao continued to flicker.

"The gateway to a new world?" Scott's eyes lit up suddenly, and he knew in his heart the meaning of the so-called new world.

You must know that after Columbus discovered the new continent of America, he opened up the Atlantic route, causing the European trade center to move westward, resulting in a series of economic changes. It can be said that the value and influence of an island or a new continent with abundant resources are incomparably great.

At this time, in the early 20th century, the United States was in the period of the Great Depression, and the Rothschild family was of course difficult to stay out of the matter, in this case, not only their business was affected, but also like the local financial oligarchs of the United States, Rockefeller and Morgan seemed to be working together to squeeze and reduce its business in the United States, and Rothschild naturally would not abandon this big cake, in the case of internal and external troubles, their family urgently needed new economic growth points, perhaps, this Skull Island would be a good choice? Scott couldn't help but think.
