Chapter 393: Lord of War
When the voice of the middle-aged man fell, several people behind him looked at each other.
As the largest grower, transporter, and seller of herbs in Colombia, and as the largest supplier of herbs in the entire Americas, military power is no stranger to them, and they have quite a strong armed force under their command to ensure the normal operation of the herbal medicine trade, but the problem is that these armed forces seem to be a bit too much to call them armies.
"Boss, the army?"
"I don't know if it's what I guessed, but do we want to train the army like the country?"
"But the military is different from the armed security forces, it requires a lot of money, and we may be severely attacked by all sides, not to mention, if we want to build an armed force the size of the army, we need to buy weapons and equipment on a large scale, and those arms companies in the United States and Brazil cannot sell to us."
In the next second, the man hesitated again, and before he could finish speaking, the middle-aged man who was fishing finally turned around, he looked at the several men present and said:
"If we don't engage in the army, won't we be hit?"
"Spending money? If we don't spend money on this, do you think we will be able to continue to make money as easily as we did in the past? Or do we earn money and have enough life to enjoy it? ”
"Stop dreaming, stop fantasizing, the Yankees have bared their fangs and claws."
"And we only have one way to fight!"
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man who was fishing sneered and said:
"American and Brazilian arms dealers don't sell to us."
"Then let's look for other companies, it's impossible for there to be no businessmen in this world who don't want to make this money, such as the Red Star Consortium, their business in Africa is very large, although they don't have a business in South America, but we can still find a way to buy from Africa, and then transport it back, just find a fake name, I don't think they will care."
"Besides, isn't the slogan they are shouting in Africa to provide weapons and equipment to those oppressors to defend their freedom and their land?"
Along with the words of the middle-aged fisherman, the men looked at each other, and one of them said hesitantly:
"Although you are right, boss, I am a herb grower."
"We're not like them, aren't we?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as his words fell, the middle-aged man who was fishing sneered:
"Different? How is it different? ”
"What's wrong with us? We are also regular businessmen! ”
"Isn't the life of those herb-growing farmers a hundred times better in our territory than outside? Isn't it true that you have a high income and can eat meat and drink milk every day? ”
"And isn't it oppression that the Yankees' actions will soon deprive them of their source of livelihood? Don't they need to resist? ”
"And Mexico, look! Look! Under the oppression of the United States, what kind of hard life are they living? ”
"Don't we, as neighbors, have no obligation and responsibility to help them? Help them regain their freedom, grow herbs, harvest dollars, and live a good life? ”
"Damn! Is it true that in this world, only the Yankees deserve to enjoy life? ”
"Are we South Americans only worthy of their work?"
"We're not their livestock! Damn it! ”
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man who was fishing seemed quite angry, he took two deep breaths, tried to calm himself, and then said:
"So, now I'm announcing the plan to build an army and enter Mexico, start now!"
"And do you want to live like a mouse for the rest of your life? As long as we have a strong enough army, whether it's in this country or in Mexico, no one can dictate to us, we can go wherever we want, and then you can all be officials, you are the Chancellor of the Exchequer, you are the Minister of Agriculture, you are"
With the voice of the middle-aged man fishing, the expressions of everyone present finally became wonderful, and after he finished speaking, the man next to him rubbed his hands and said:
"That's right! That's right! The boss is right! ”
"But, Boss, how are we going to get started?"
Regarding this question, the middle-aged man who was fishing became serious all of a sudden, pointed to the fishing chair next to him, and motioned for everyone to sit down, and then he said:
"There are two aspects, the first is land and power."
"The second is weaponry."
"For many years, we have only looked at dollars and forgotten some fundamental things, and now we have to re-examine our situation, whether in Colombia or in Mexico, we cannot define ourselves as mere herb growers and sellers, we should run our land and our farmers from an official perspective."
"Of course, whether it's Colombia or Mexico, there are original officials and armies."
"But it doesn't matter, we can communicate with some local forces, first promote our herbal cultivation, take them to profit, and then form a closer community of interests, and when all the villages are conquered by us, those officials in the city will not be worth mentioning, and then they will be the fish on our board."
"And the source of this plan, huh! It's funny, from the east, called attacking the city from the countryside. ”
"Forget it, you don't understand it, let's talk about weapons and equipment."
"As long as we can occupy the countryside and the peasants, we can continue to import weapons from Africa and arm our peasants, who will surely become the bravest fighters in order to protect their land and interests."
"When that day comes, no one can stop us from continuing to do business!"
Speaking of this, a smile appeared on the face of the middle-aged man who was fishing, and then he said very proudly:
"And we're going to control the southern gate of the United States."
"People from all over the world, who want to be Americans, have to go through our land, and maybe we can put a price on it and tell everybody in the world how much they want to enter the United States."
"That way, we're going to make a lot of money again, hahaha!"
On the shores of the lake, with a burst of laughter, an astonishing plan has been hatched.
Meanwhile.
In Los Angeles, Xu Jiaojiao also arrived at the restaurant on time and met the director Steve in the private room.
"Miss Xu, please be seated!"
Seeing Xu Jiaojiao pushing the door in, Steve was very enthusiastic, and said hello with a smile.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Steve."
Xu Jiaojiao said with a smile, and then sat down, and then the two of them exchanged a few words of greeting, and Xu Jiaojiao asked straight to the point:

"Mr. Steve, I wonder if you asked me to meet today, is there something going on?"
Now, Xu Jiaojiao, who has been in the United States for a few months, is completely accustomed to this way of speaking in the United States, while Steve nodded with a smile and said:
"Yes, there are some things."
Speaking of this, Steve motioned for the waiters in the room and others to leave, and only after everyone had left did he say solemnly:
"Recently, I've been working on a new movie."
"The tentative name is 'Lord of War: Twin Sisters.'"
Hearing such a rather cheesy name coming out of Director Steve's mouth, Xu Jiaojiao almost couldn't help laughing, but she finally controlled her expression and asked with a smile:
"Just listening to the name, it seems interesting."
"But Director Steve doesn't want me to star in the movie, does he?"
"If that's the case, then I can only say I'm sorry, because I have my own job, and I'm afraid I don't have time to make movies."
"And to be honest, I'm not interested in being an actor either."
After Xu Jiaojiao finished speaking, Director Steve over there hurriedly waved his hand and said:
"No, no, no, that's not the case, Miss Xu."
"Of course I know you have a job."
Although his conjecture was denied by Steve, Xu Jiaojiao did not show any embarrassment at all, but smiled:
"Oh, that's my guess, but Mr. Steve, what's the matter with you? Why don't you say it bluntly? ”
"You're not always looking for me to make investment, are you?"
Faced with Xu Jiaojiao's second guess, Steve hurriedly waved his hand again, his expression seemed to be a little embarrassed, and after a pause, he said:
"Then I'll tell you straight, Miss Xu."
"Have you heard the names Catherine and Elizabeth?"
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Xu Jiaojiao's face froze and then faded, nodded and said:
"Of course, these are not two rare names."
"But I guess Mr. Steve's two names at the same time should not refer to ordinary people, right?"
At that moment, Steve nodded and said:
"That's right, I'm talking about Catherine and Elizabeth of the Saudi Foundation for the Protection of Women and Children in War, which has ties to your company."
"I wanted to make a film based on the two of them."
"This is the outline of the script, Miss Xu, take a look."
As he spoke, Steve took out a stack of manuscripts from the handbag next to him, and then handed it to Xu Jiaojiao, who was sitting not far away.
Because it is the outline of the script, the whole is not too long, and in the process of flipping through it, seeing those familiar and unfamiliar plots full of outrageous and stunned plots, Xu Jiaojiao had to work hard to control her expression.
"As you can see, this is a film based on real events."
"Of course, for the sake of the flow of the story and some other problems, I also made some adaptations."
"Our protagonist is called Jack, an ordinary boy born in Pittsburgh, the steel capital of the United States, he was born in a traditional working family, in his upbringing, he experienced the decline of Pittsburgh, along with the decline of the steel industry in the whole city of Pittsburgh, his father and mother were unemployed successively, life was in trouble, looking at his four younger siblings, as the eldest brother, he hoped to take on more responsibilities, so after graduating from junior high school, he did not continue to study, but went to the big city of New York, I hope to earn more money and change poor families. ”
"When I came to New York, because he was still underage, he had to do some part-time jobs on the ground, with a pitiful salary, and no fixed place to live, so he could only live on the streets, sleeping in parks or under bridges."
"Then, little by little, he grew up, and soon came to the age of eighteen, and he finally found a good job, that is, as a school worker at New York University, cleaning toilets, during this period, he was born in a working family, he loved machinery since he was a child, and was reprimanded and abused by the obese administrator because he often went to class to eavesdrop."
"But in the process, his knowledge skyrocketed, and he was praised by his professors in class, and he also fell in love with a beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, who didn't like engineering and didn't want to be an engineer, but chose this major because her father was an engineer."
"It's a pity that in the end, his confession, which he plucked up courage under the persuasion of his friends, became a joke, and was ridiculed by the girl as a 'wild boy in the country', and that girl, who ended up with a rich man who drove a Chevrolet sports car, Jack was very sad, and determined to become a rich man and wash away the shame of the past."
So, sadly, he left the campus and found a new job, which is to help customers maintain and maintain, and even repair some guns in a gun shop, after all, he has strong hands-on skills, and this job is very good.
In the process, he heard a compliment from a Dubai.
"Your ability to repair guns, if you are in Africa and desert areas, can find a job that pays at least five thousand dollars a month, or even more, and maybe be rewarded with beauty and gold."
"Jack asked the man why, and the man sighed and said, 'Unlike the United States, it is full of wars and a great lack of weapons, and every weapon engineer is the most valuable asset.' ”
So because of this simple conversation, Jack began to care about the situation in the desert and Africa, and finally after a few months, he made up his mind and decided to seek wealth and risk, because there is no way to become rich by working alone.
Eventually, he used his savings to go to the desert to inspect the local market.
"In the process, he was coincidentally involved in a 'hidden war', many stories happened, and even related to important items such as the nuclear bomb launch button, and it was also in the process that he met Catherine and Elizabeth, and with a strong personality, he conquered this pair of intelligence beauties from the Kebger."
"As for the end of the story, of course, it was he who secretly saved the entire desert area, avoided the explosion of the nuclear bomb, maintained world peace, and at the same time held two beauties and obtained a sum of money."
"The next step is to return to the United States, start creating his own factory and brand, and become an arms dealer."
"That's the end of the story, so that's just the first step."
"In fact, I already have a follow-up plan, I plan to shoot at least five parts of the 'Lord of War' series, and release it continuously at a rate of one every two years!"
"I think audiences all over the world will love this series of movies!"
At the end, Steven was already very excited, as if he couldn't wait to start making movies, while Xu Jiaojiao had a feeling of Maja Fake.
"So, this is a movie adapted from Wang Ye, the director of our Red Star Consortium?"
Xu Jiaojiao closed the outline of the script, looked up at Steven and asked, and Steven nodded with a smile and said:
"You're right, that's it."
"After all, the love story between Mr. Wang Ye and those two is known all over the world!"
