Chapter 547 The next work

In the new version of "The Hunger Games".

As the male protagonists, Nicolas Cage and Hoshino Yuko not only need to escape the pursuit of other competitors, but also solve the puzzle left by the organizer, and then get the answer to how to leave the "Hunger Games" hunting ground.

Iron cages with props have been arranged in advance in many places in the Tai Chi maze. According to the script, hungry wolves, hungry bears and even tigers that have not eaten for several days will be released.

In order to create a thrilling atmosphere, they will of course fight hard with these beasts to take away the key clues.

Movies are movies after all.

The real Tai Chi maze, except that it is difficult to find the exit, is actually quite beautiful inside. Suri also encountered a hare and a lamb that accidentally entered the maze.

Secretary Amanda deliberately wore black stockings and high heels today because of that celebrity. When she walked out of the maze entrance, her calf muscles were trembling, and she almost asked the bodyguard to carry her out.

The largest labyrinth in the world, the Regnac Maze, covered an area of ​​4 hectares, or almost 60 acres.

The Tai Chi maze built with Suri's investment is directly twice the size of the Regnac maze, with the total area increased to about 182 acres.

When he thought of the trees in front of him, which had sprouted from the ground since the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and were almost ready to mature, Su Rui felt that it was a pity not to use them to carve beads.

Since he already owns the large Lanai Island and has gradually added some other real estate properties, he only felt interesting during the visit and did not have many other emotions.

After wiping the sweat from his face, Suri continued to visit other places.

Except for the California giant sequoias.

Near the log holiday house built by Suri, there are also several beautiful blue oak trees. It is said that they were planted by the farm owner at the beginning of the last century, and now they can provide him with shade.

As one of the most famous attractions in California, the fate of the California Giant Sequoias, like their old neighbors, the Indians, came the moment Europeans arrived.

Unlike Lanai, only a small part has been developed so far, and many places are still in a primitive state.

Not only is the area larger, but the design is also more complicated. Many places can only accommodate one person passing through. Sometimes after walking for more than ten minutes, I realize that it is a dead end.

Secretary Amanda knew that Suri didn't want to offend those local gangsters, so when dealing with these matters, she was more cautious and tried to reach some exchange conditions for benefits.

The entire Tai Chi Farm has a history of more than 110 years in the original owner's family. During this period, it has been continuously expanded and renovated. In the past few months, it has been renovated with Suri's investment, and all aspects have been perfected.

"Yes, the construction team is still the Chinese team that built the Whale Hotel. They are doing preliminary preparations and it takes a long time to review the approval documents. Some local developers in Hawaii do not want you to seize their business. Although their scale is small, However, the local forces are more complicated, and they are often relatives of each other, and they even marry each other to deepen the relationship."

Only when he actually stood in front of several California giant sequoia trees with a diameter of five to six meters did Suri feel the magic of nature.

It is estimated that by then, many tourists who come here will be scolded.

Think of Lanai.

Fortunately, not all this peculiar plant has become extinct. There is a giant sequoia nursery in Taiji Farm, and tourists can buy it at a high price.

Su Rui then thought about the island resort community project he was promoting, and asked Amanda's secretary:

"Has construction started recently on the villas and sea-view apartments on Lanai?"

However, this kind of plant, which can be more than 3000 years old, takes a long time to grow up. With the life span of modern people, it is impossible to wait until they grow into towering giant trees.

After the people who blocked it were settled, the approval to develop a community on Lanai was obtained. A separate piece of land covering an area of ​​about 2.5 square kilometers was set aside to build a resort town, next to the previously planned world-class nursing home. .

Su Rui never paid attention to this little trouble. He knew exactly what the crux of the problem was and said with a smile:

"Help me find high-quality assets in Hawaii that are worth acquiring. Then make a list and give it to me. When I go on vacation next time, I will get to know more local big shots. It is best to support one or two congressmen." Wen Yan .

Secretary Amanda was shocked, and "House of Cards" came into her mind again, and she said in an excited tone: "You finally started to pay attention to these?"

"There is nothing I can do. Others can ask someone to help me speak. If I don't have a microphone, wouldn't I be at a disadvantage?"

Suri was not very interested in these things, and the reason for taking action was just to protect himself.

As a Chinese-American, his development in the United States has reached the ceiling. If he hadn't tried every means to win over allies, the benefits that Netflix Entertainment can bring would be enough to make people eager to start with him.

Not to mention that there is a big piece of meat behind the S electric car, which involves a huge market worth trillions of dollars. It is too dangerous to dominate it. Even if it has nine lives like a cat, it may not be enough.

Honestly.

Suri already regrets that he originally acquired the remaining shares from Elon Musk and became a live target to attract firepower.

The current idea is to wait until the right time to invest more shares in S Electric Vehicles, grab a stake and run away, and then make first-hand preparations to establish a new electric vehicle company in the mainland.

This can prevent the mainland market from being seized by S electric vehicles. Considering that the majority of the shares in the future will probably be in the hands of other American oligarchs, he does not want to become the leading party.

In addition, it would be more in line with his and the mainland's interests to establish a new company separately.

Different positions mean different perspectives on problems. In the past, Su Rui used to wonder why many rich people like to keep working hard. Isn't it nice to live a comfortable life?

Only later did I discover that the phrase "a successful king loses a bandit" is indeed correct. If you want to protect your wealth, life and freedom, you need to match the corresponding strength.

Games all over the world are playing this way, and if you don’t follow the trend, the consequences may be disastrous.

Finally met Suri.

Nicolas Cage, who was eager to make a comeback, quickly turned the topic to other new projects of Daju Film Company.

Seeing that Cage had the idea to join, Suri was also very optimistic about the Oscar-winning actor, and straight to the point told:

"Director Nolan's next film is called "The Martian," and it's basically confirmed that Leonardo will star."

"But the next film is also a big production, and the movie is called "Interstellar." If you are willing to lower the salary to about US$800 million, there is no problem in leaving it to you."

"It's not that I'm trying to squeeze you, it's just that the investment is too big, at least 1 million US dollars to start with, and it requires a lot of expensive special effects. I originally wanted to find a newcomer or a second- or third-tier actor."

Other film companies have lost confidence in Nicolas Cage's box office appeal, not to mention the $800 million salary is not bad.

Without saying anything, Cage reached out his hand decisively and said with a smile:

"No problem. I will never forget the people who helped me and I will definitely try my best to make this movie."

"."

Suri smiled a little reluctantly, thinking that if he had known better, he would have lowered the price by 200 million US dollars.

Look.

The failure some time ago really had a great impact on Cage and made him mature.

Ten years ago, even if you paid 1500 million US dollars, you would probably not be able to hire him. How could he be so easy to talk to?
