Standing in front of the shooting position, Matthew held an AR-15 rifle, aimed at a target 30 meters away, pulled the trigger, and the semi-automatic rifle fired one round after another, hitting the target accurately.

After pulling the trigger ten times, Matthew put down his semi-automatic rifle and took off his headset.

"Eighty-nine rings!"

The electronic targetman's voice rang out.

Charlize Theron in a sports suit came over and said to Matthew, "The marksmanship is very good."

Matthew removed the rifle magazine and said, "I practice a lot."

He picked up a new magazine, reloaded it, and asked Charlize Theron, "Would you like to try it?"

Charlize Theron shook her head, "Forget it, I just played with a pistol, and my wrist hurts now." She folded her arms across her chest, "If I knew I wouldn't come here with you, I might as well hide in the room and read. "

Matthew pulled the bolt, made a clatter, and said, "It's easy to get mold if you stay in the room for a long time."

After he finished speaking, he didn't wear headphones, he lifted the gun and aimed at the target 30 meters away again, and the gunshots kept ringing.

Charlize Theron saw that Matthew was in high spirits and took a step back. It seemed that men always had an unusual obsession with guns.

This is the VIP shooting range of the gun club. Except for her and Matthew, there is no one else here today. Seeing that Matthew finished playing a magazine and picked up a new magazine, Charlize Theron simply retreated to the rest area. side, sat down.

She looked at Matthew, who seemed to be so energetic forever. After attending the Mercedes-Benz event yesterday, it was almost midnight when he came back, and after struggling with her for so long, he still got up on time this morning. Running, then coming here to shoot, no sign of fatigue at all.

Thinking of this, Charlize Theron stretched and yawned again. She struggled for too long last night, and she didn't sleep well at all.

"Ninety-one rings!"

After another ten shots, the electronic target operator's voice sounded again.

Charlize Theron also discovered that Matthew's current shooting level at 30 meters is around the ninth ring on average, which is estimated to be a high level among amateur players.

The door of the VIP room was pushed open from the outside, and a strong man in his forties walked in. Charlize Theron turned his head to look. This man still remembered that he attended the engagement party last week.

The man came over and greeted her familiarly, "Hi, Charlize."

Charlize Theron remembered who he was, stood up and responded with a smile, "Hello, Niebola."

Matthew also heard Niebola's voice, put down the semi-automatic rifle, came here, and said, "How do you have time to come here?"

Niebola laughed, "I'm now one of the owners of the gun club."

"Oh?" Matthew couldn't help asking curiously, "Have you expanded your business again?"

"It's far worse than you." Niebola explained casually, "There was something wrong with the other business of one of the major shareholders of the club, and it needed cash flow, so I bought the equity."

He glanced at Charlize Theron and said, "Matthew, I originally wanted to take you with me. You've been too busy these days, so I didn't bother you."

Matthew laughed, "Fortunately, you didn't go to me. I didn't have any money during this time, so I used it to buy a house."

In addition to the down payment, Horner Manor's other payments are mortgages, but this is also beneficial. Many expenses of buying a house can be deducted from taxes.

Of course, property tax is payable every year when buying a house on this land. The property tax rate in the United States varies from state to county, generally between 1% and 3.3%. This tax rate is not based on the purchase price. It is the current actual value of the home.

Cities such as Los Angeles, Houston and New York are all places where property taxes are generally higher.

Los Angeles is better. The average tax rate in various counties and cities is less than 1%. The mansion in Beverly Hills is relatively high, such as Matthew's mansion, the annual tax rate is 1.2%.

That is to say, according to the purchase price of $25 million, the property tax of Horner Manor in that year was $300,000.

That's not too high, with property taxes in Manhattan, New York, as high as 3 percent.

Living in this country, housing costs are quite high.

The only good thing is that as long as the property tax can be paid, the house is the permanent private property of the individual.

This is what the law stipulates. It is said that there are also violent demolition in disguised form in the United States, but Matthew don’t have to worry, no matter how much demolition, it will not be able to demolish the super rich area of ​​Beverly Hills South Hillside.

Matthew has only had a superficial understanding of things like the taxation of the country of ten thousand taxes in recent years. His taxation is handed over to lawyers and accountants of PricewaterhouseCoopers.

And as his income soars, Helen-Hellman is also working on new legal tax avoidance measures.

Charlize Theron next to him yawned again at this time, and Matthew saw her struggling, and said to Niebola, "I'll go to the gym tomorrow and we'll talk. I still have something to do, so I'll go first."

Niebola probably saw it, and didn't hold back, saying, "Then we'll see you tomorrow afternoon."

Matthew and Charlize Theron quickly left the gun club and went to the parking lot to get into the car. Matthew started the Mercedes-Benz G and turned back to Beverly Hills.

"I'll get some sleep." Charlize Theron lifted the hood of his sweatshirt over his head.

Matthew gradually increased his speed and said, "So sleepy?"

Charlize Theron gave him a pair of eyeballs, "It's not you yet."

Matthew shrugged, without realizing it at all, "Last night you were the one who held me and didn't let me stop."

"I felt it at that time." Charlize Theron said unabashedly, "It's not that you don't know, I'm relatively slow in that regard, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't even be interested."

She didn't say anything in the second half, Matthew is really too strong.

"That's right." Charlize Theron suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Have you discussed the reasons I told you the other day with Helen Herman?"

Matthew held the steering wheel with one hand and clapped his head with the other, "I forgot about it."

Charlize Theron frowned, "You'd better discuss it with Helen Herman as soon as possible."

Now that you have found a suitable reason, then quickly find a suitable time to break up. If you drag it on, who knows what will happen.

Matthew can understand the hidden meaning behind these words. In the words of the other side of the Pacific Ocean where he once lived, a twisted melon is not sweet.

"Come on, you can go back and rest later." Charlize Theron urged again and again, and Matthew no longer hesitated, "I'll go to the Angels Agency to have a face-to-face interview with Helen."

Drive back to Horner Manor, put down Charlize Theron, Matthew first called Helen Herman, made sure she was in the agency, and immediately drove to Burbank, came to the Angel Agency, and met Helen- Herman, roughly repeating what Charlize Theron said that day.

Helen Herman was not at all embarrassed. She crossed her chin with her hands and thought.

Matthew stopped talking, sat on the chair opposite the desk, and waited patiently. Helen Herman's judgment in this regard was much more reliable than his.

After two or three minutes, Helen Herman said, "This is indeed a good idea, it can reduce the negative effects more than the reason I originally gave you, no one can say anything about this kind of thing. "

"After Sally told me that day." Matthew said at this time, "I thought about it too, it seems that she has a point."

Helen Herman raised a finger, shook it, and said, "It doesn't make sense, it makes sense. We can imagine that Charlize Theron has a similar rumor, at best, the rumor in this regard is wider. , but it's not a bad thing for a female star of her level."

Matthew thought about it for a while, and nodded lightly. He had had many in-depth exchanges with Charlize Theron, and he naturally understood that the rumors were true. Charlize Theron didn't feel that it was slow to come.

"Let's talk about you." Helen Herman resisted the urge to laugh and maintained her calm look, "You are a man, or a tough guy and a tough guy who is famous in Hollywood and the United States~www.readwn.com~ This is It doesn't do you any harm at all."

She added, "Exactly, even if it's widely discussed, it's not a bad thing for any man."

Matthew asked directly, "Are we going to adopt it?"

"Um..." Helen Herman thought about it again and said, "Well, let me talk to Charlize Theron's agent and crew first, and Mercedes-Benz will also call in advance. Hello."

"Yes." Matthew knew that this matter involved all aspects, so he couldn't be in a hurry.

Helen Herman warned again, "Until I'm sure, don't make an assertion."

Matthew nodded, "I know."

This show is not a solo show for him and Charlize Theron. It involves not only a film crew, but also two major brands. If you mess with it, it will only screw things up.

Helen Herman changed the subject, "I had a conversation with Akiva Goldsman yesterday, and he estimates that in the next three to four months, he will be able to come up with the script, as far as the current situation is concerned, he will let you pick it up. The desire for the next male lead is very strong."

Matthew said directly, "Then let's wait for him to come up with the script."

"That's what I thought too," Helen Herman added, "I've already recommended Jack as executive producer for Zach Snyder and David Ellison on The 300 Spartans. , negotiating with Walt Disney’s Pubweis Pictures.”

After Matthew and Robert Egger mentioned it that night, the two sides have had formal contact.

"Jack?" Matthew found the name familiar.

Helen Herman reminds, "That bearded assistant that used to be Ridley Scott's side.")!!
