Chapter 703: Philanthropy

"So, why do you want Jack Sparrow's compass?"

Charlize asked with some curiosity,

"Is there anything special about this compass?"

"Why do you ask?"

Charlotte said with a smile,

"Can't I just just choose a random thing as a mission target for the reincarnations?"

"Needless to say!"

Charlize rolled his eyes,

"You guys have a specific purpose in everything they do - I've been with you for so long, I still don't know that!"

"That's why the person next to the pillow is the hardest to deceive!"

Charlotte shrugged at Alexis on the side, only to get a roll of the Valkyrie's eyes,

"Don't sell it, let's talk about it quickly!"

"Okay, okay!"

Faced with two impatient women, Charlotte had no choice but to raise her hands and surrender,

"On the one hand, this compass is one of the core items in the world of Pirates of the Caribbean that I conceived, and there will be a lot of magic in it. ”

"Like the Death Note before it?"

"Yes. ”

Charlotte nodded.

- In this regard, he really did not tell a lie.

After all, Charlotte's "Pirates of the Caribbean" story is still an optimized version of his original world film series of the same name.

And in the original time and space, the fifth installment of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, "Death Without Proof", to a certain extent, revealed the origin story of Captain Jack Sparrow -

In that story, Jack's mysterious compass is a key prop to seal the undead Captain Salazar trapped in the "Devil's Triangle".

The "Devil's Triangle", the fictional uncharted sea in the story, is based on the real "Bermuda Triangle".

- The Bermuda Triangle, where Charlotte felt that the mysterious Lord of the Abyss was most likely to hide after researching the remnants of Jack the Ripper.

However, there is a problem here -

According to the results of the research, the Lord of the Abyss probably exists on a shipwreck island deep in the Bermuda Triangle, but the reality is that there is no such island in this world.

Of course, with enough mana, it is possible to completely hide some parts of the world.

- Charlotte can't do it, but he understands the theoretical method.

But to understand it, how to find this place is a problem.

So, Charlotte set her sights on Captain Jack's compass -

"If I can manifest this compass in reality, I will be able to use its ability to guide the destination of my heart and find the location of the Lord of the Abyss. ”

Charlotte explains,

"And the best way to embody this compass in reality is to have the reincarnators take it out of the world of Pirates of the Caribbean. ”

"I see!"

Charlize nodded,

"But I remember that when you were refining the Death Note before, you hadn't developed the magical world of the main god space, didn't you be able to manifest the props in the movie at that time, why do you have to let the reincarnators help you get the props out of the movie world now?"

"Because it's better! It's like buying a carβ€”"

Charlotte gave an example,

"Of course, it is not impossible to drive a second-hand car with incomplete documents and procedures, but it feels that after all, it is not a feeling to have a new car with all the procedures - at least when you encounter trouble, the lack of procedures is trouble. ”

"As for the specific realization of magical props from the movie world, my previous method was actually just to forcibly extract power from the movie world and mix it with my own mana, and the effect of this extraction was not precise enough, so the effect of the props produced was not stable enough. ”

"And through the reincarnation, the way to obtain the corresponding props from the world of the movie is equivalent to precise cutting, and it is equivalent to signing a clear contract with the source of the magic of the movie world - so that when I refine the corresponding props, the effect will be stronger and less prone to accidents. ”

"In other words, if you want to embody any magical props in the movie world in the future, they will pass through the reincarnation first?"

Alexis also understood what Charlotte meant,

"It seems that this main god space is not just a mana factory that provides us with mana!"

"That's nature!"

Charlotte nodded,

"There are many magical uses for the main god space, and I have only developed a little bit so far. ”

"And to develop more features, you need more reincarnators, right?"

Alexis points directly to the heart of the matter,

"How are you going to get more reincarnators? Always draw from your fans, even if you can affect their memories in the main god space, if there are too many people, you will definitely be found clues, right?"

"Of course, I don't just choose from my fans. ”

Charlotte smiled and looked at Charlize on the side,

"Sally has already provided me with a lot of new material in this regard!"

"Me!?"

Charlize was stunned,

"Whenβ€”"

"β€”that charitable foundation of ours!"

Charlotte reminded.

"Ah!!h

Charlize suddenly understood.

It turned out that after Charlize won the title of actress last year, Charlotte began to act with his wife in the field of charity.

This is actually a very normal thing for Hollywood stars.

- We can't deny that there are indeed people who want to do some good things after they are developed.

- This is something to be encouraged after all.

At the same time, devoting oneself to charity also has many substantial benefits for Hollywood stars-

First of all, it can raise the profile of the stars.

- A big star of the same fame, who is dime a dime and loves charity, obviously the latter will get more social favorability.

And, because of U.S. tax laws, donating money to a charitable organization, or more specifically, setting up your own charitable organization, is a way to avoid a lot of taxes.

- Just like many bosses in China will basically not pay themselves much salary, and all bulk purchases will be taken from the company under their name, which is essentially to avoid taxes.

After all, China's personal income tax can only monitor wages. By doing so, bosses can avoid individual income tax, and at the same time, they can consume the company's profits and reduce the company's profit tax through personal consumption.

- The best of both worlds.

By contrast, the U.S. tax office is much stronger β€” it has its own independent courts and military β€” and its tax laws are more complex.

Wealthy people can avoid taxes in a similar way to their Chinese counterparts, but it's much more difficult and less effective.

Instead, the U.S. government has left a gap for the rich in order to encourage philanthropy.

- Rich people can avoid a lot of taxes by setting up their own charitable foundations and then spending a lot of their money from the foundation.

This is also one of the main reasons why there are so many charitable foundations in the United States, and there are basically rich families with the same name.

There may be many really good people in this world, but after all, there are not so many.
