Chapter 310 Reappearing the Art of Fudge (for Subscription)

Unhappy director, mysterious rumors of Skull Island.

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

The story of the film tells that in the United States in 1933, an adventurous entrepreneur and filmmaker Carl led a filming team to a deserted island to shoot, including the heroine Ann and the screenwriter Jack. They encountered dinosaurs and local aborigines. Attack, An's screams were exchanged for King Kong's response.This gigantic orangutan, even the fierce dinosaurs are afraid of it, but it loves peace.An Qi then brought King Kong back to New York from a deserted island, but this was the beginning of its tragic fate...

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

The story conveyed by this movie is a typical Hollywood adventure and love story, with a taste of unfinished human and animal love.

When he realized this, Li Xiao suddenly felt thunderous. You must know that he is now in the movie world of "The Mummy", so why did a clue of the story of "King Kong" pop up halfway?

"At first glance, the two seem to be a little bit wrong, but if you think about it carefully, both the timeline and the background are very similar. It's all because the United States in the early 20th century, after the Great Depression and the blind The spirit of adventure inspires everyone to explore unfamiliar areas and open up unknown living spaces, and because of this, it inspires people to explore treasure hunts, open up unknown worlds, and explore unknown wealth.”

Thinking of this, Li Xiao finally cleared his thoughts, and couldn't help nodding secretly, and at the same time, he also became very interested in that Skull Island.

I have to say that the Skull Island in the movie is very magical, and even a bit unconstrained. On this island that humans have not set foot on, there are not only prehistoric dinosaurs; a huge orangutan with a height of more than ten meters and a weight of twenty tons. Moreover, even insects such as spiders and scorpions have risen to adult size.

Except for the aborigines inside, the rest of the creatures, like spiders and scorpions, are also multiplied in size, which is amazing. I really don't know what kind of fairy grass and elixir they eat to grow so big?
……

……

"Li, what's the matter with you?" Seeing Li Xiao's strangely distracted expression, Scott asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I'm just lamenting the wonder of fate. I met him once on the street." Li Xiao suddenly came back to his senses, and explained with a calm smile.

When he met Li Xiao again, Carl also had a look of astonishment on his face. At the same time, he also wondered what kind of identity he was, so that he could appear here side by side with Scott Rothschild.

Then Li Xiao straightened his face, turned his head to Carl and asked, "I heard that you have a map to Skull Island?"

"That's right... But, how do you know?" Karl nodded first, but then his pupils shrank suddenly, and his sweaty palms subconsciously clenched his bulging trouser pockets, but just after he said this, Karl felt a little nervous Shaking his head consciously and stupidly: With the strength of the Rothschild Group, is there any news in this world that they can't find out.

Carl simply stopped concealing it, and talked eloquently: "Yes, I have a sailing route map. I won a bet with a sailor friend. As far as I know, this is the only handed down, about an unknown Isle of Records, a location we only thought existed in mythology until now."

"Wow, this sounds a little too unbelievable. It's very similar to the story broadcast in the "Arabian Nights" radio drama at six o'clock in the evening." Scott frowned slightly when he heard this, and couldn't help but sneer. A look of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Obviously, Scott has great doubts about what Carl said, and thinks it is nothing more than a fantasy, because the elite education Scott has received since he was a child, including the graceful and luxurious life he is now receiving, are all based on materialism. Dominant technology and finance.

"Mr. Scott, this is not a general conclusion. You must have seen the legends and secrets recorded in the archives. Except for some uncertain legends, some of them have been confirmed to be true." Immediately afterwards, Li Xiao expressed a different opinion.

Earning Li Xiao's words, Scott couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Indeed, when the file was handed in by his subordinates, he had also personally reviewed it, and there were some rumors and clues mentioned in it, which were equally confusing and unbelievable.But many of them have been confirmed.Perhaps, there are really many unsolved mysteries in this great world?
"I'm talking about a primitive world that people have never seen before. The ruins of the entire civilization will be a wonderful scene that you have never seen before, and my greatest ambition is to shoot movies there!" After talking about this topic, Carl It was as if he had been opened up, talking about his plans for a huge movie production, and his eyes showed a look of fanatical yearning.

Karl firmly believes that this Skull Island is real, and when he was most embarrassed, it was 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 reconciled to filming those shit love stories that are so vulgar that they lose their teeth.

"No more beating around the bush. I'm willing to pay $[-] for your map of Skull Island." Li Xiao directly offered a high price.

With a bid of one hundred thousand dollars, buy an unproven sailing route map?
The group of people in black present, including Scott, were slightly taken aback. It was not uncommon for his Rothschild family to spend a lot of money to take pictures of precious collections at some antique exchange meetings.

However, Li Xiao's move seemed a bit too childish in his opinion.

But having said that, Scott will not doubt Li Xiao's strong financial resources. After all, he can conjure half a room worth of gold and silver treasures with just a wave of his hand. It's like a huge bottomless pit.

Such an inhuman behavior can only be explained by being rich and willful!
……

……

"One hundred thousand?"

Carl was dumbfounded and swallowed deeply.

A total of one hundred thousand dollars, if there is such funds, it is enough for him to shoot several documentaries, how can it not make people tempted.But after hesitating for a moment, Carl smiled coyly, and said in a slightly tactful tone: "Your Excellency offered me an offer that I could hardly refuse, but it is equally important to realize my movie dream... Your Excellency, if you want to go to the skeleton As for the island, can you take me with you, if you can take me, then the [-] can be a compromise, I only need [-]."

For this huge price tag, Karl was 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, rake in the box office, and have a restless reputation.So he did everything possible to go to Skull Island.

Seeing this, Li Xiao couldn't help being slightly taken aback. He glanced at the extremely determined expression on Carl's face, which seemed a little unexpected.

"It seems that his obsession with shooting huge movie productions 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. After pondering for a while, he put his hand down again, nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, then follow what you said."

In fact, if Li Xiao really wanted to get the route map, he could have knocked Carl unconscious with his palm and snatched it from him. What a sensation.

"Great, thank you sir!" Carl smiled happily and rubbed his hands excitedly.

Seeing this scene in his eyes, Scott was full of doubts, hesitant to speak several times.

……

……

Later, after Li Xiao paid Karl two gold coins from the Pharaoh's Tomb, he got the route map drawn on parchment as he wished.

Spreading out the map, Li Xiao found out that the location of the Skull Island is near Sumatra after a careful look.Although the general location of the area is known, the specific navigation route needs to be formulated by experienced navigators. Moreover, this ocean expedition is not a simple matter. Whether it is equipment or supplies, it needs to be properly raised.

After dismissing Carl, Li Xiao and Scott got into the car they came in, started the car, and with the roar of the engine, they drove from the suburbs to the crowded Wall Street.

"Do you want to ask me why I am so obsessed with this route map?" On the back seat of the car, Li Xiao took the lead in breaking the silence and said.

"I... do have such doubts. Why did you decide, Li, that flight map that you don't know is true?" Scott finally expressed the doubts in his heart.

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

"Know the past and predict the future? Could it be similar to the Tarot divination of the gypsies?" Scott clicked his tongue.

"It's somewhat similar, but not the same. The divination of the gypsies is the result of using the astrological principles of the Tarot to speculate on the possibility based on the line shape. But the technique of divination can not only predict the future, but also understand the past. The treasure in my hand, its burial place, is what I deduced by using the technique of divination." Li Xiao explained.

"Your divination technique can understand the past?"

"That's right, if I'm not mistaken, the Ling family has a few family mottos: once the money is heard, the bad words will stop abruptly." "As long as you are united, you will be invincible; the day you part, it will be You lose the beginning of prosperity." And so on. "Li Xiaowei closed her eyes and pinched her fingers in a pretentious manner.

"Did you calculate these family mottos through divination?" Scott felt a shock and couldn't help but get up from the car seat. How could he be unfamiliar with what was instilled into his consciousness by his parents.It's just that as the cornerstone of a family's rise and fall, these family mottos are strictly kept secret and tight-lipped. They cannot be passed on to outsiders except in the family. How did Li Xiao know?Could it be that he can really understand the affairs of the world, that is really terrifying!

Li Xiao nodded in disbelief on the surface, but secretly laughed in his heart.The family motto of the Rothschild family is of course a secret in this era of relatively closed news, but in the post-modern age where Internet information is developed and convenient, many family mottos and secrets of the nobles are made public and become people's gossip. Li Xiao also saw it in a magazine by chance.

After seeing Scott's perplexed appearance, Li Xiao added: "Don't worry, I'm not in the business circle, and I'm not interested in the business secrets of the Ling family, besides, this divination technique is very expensive. In my mind, I haven't reached the point where I'm making fun of calculations."

After suppressing the discomfort of being prying into secrets in his heart, Scott smiled and said: "We are partners, so there is no reason to worry about you."

"Just now I found out that the map is very valuable, so I bought that map on the spot. If I set foot on that island, I might be able to open the door to a new world for people!" Li Xiao continued to fool around.

"The gate of the new world?" Scott's eyes suddenly lit up, and he knew deeply the meaning of the so-called new world.

You know, after Columbus discovered the new continent of America, he opened up the Atlantic route, which caused the westward movement of the European trade center and led to a series of economic changes.It can be said that a resource-rich island or a new continent contains enormous value and influence.

At this time, the United States in the early 20th century was in the period of the Great Depression, and of course the Rothschild family could hardly stay out of it. It seems that Rockefeller and Morgan are also working together to squeeze and reduce its business in the United States, and Rothschild will naturally not abandon this big cake. Under the circumstances of internal and external troubles, their family urgently needs new economic growth points. Perhaps, Would this Skull Island be a good choice?Scott couldn't help but think so.
