Chapter 163: Home Accountability



"who?"

"A little fat guy, I don't know him either."

Patrice's trip to Hong Kong this time was not a high-profile one. He was not like Allen, who needed someone to pick him up at the airport every time he went there.

But as a veteran in the British film industry, Patrice himself knows everything about this. Hong Kong has a Film Union, which is the department that specializes in censoring their films.

With these people's help, it was easy for him to choose an actor.

But such a simple thing suddenly led to a small accident.

This actress named Shuzhen was spotted by a fat boy, who was going to take her away to act in a movie.

Patrice has already picked her peaches, and now someone is coming out to pick them?

Is this okay?

How could someone be so bold as to snatch the actors from his own young master?

But before Patrice could complain, the Governor of Hong Kong, Sir David Wilson, who had been hiding in the dark, jumped out. It didn't matter that the fat guy named Wang didn't know who Patrice was, as long as Sir David Wilson knew it!

Wei Yixin has actually been a little nervous all along.

For that real estate project, how much dividend did Allen give him for the first phase alone?

Millions of pounds!

This is not a small amount of money for a man who came from a common family and climbed up step by step to the position of Governor of Hong Kong!

What's more, Wei Yixin thought that he basically did no work, just appeared to host the event, and he got several million pounds.

This is more money than he has ever earned in the first half of his life!

This money instantly improved his family's quality of life by several levels!

It's not just one level, it's several levels!

This makes David Yixun look more like a real knight.

In this society, when a person gets a huge sum of money that is not commensurate with his status, some people will lose the money for various reasons.

For example: being cheated, being scammed, etc.

Some smart people will try their best to improve themselves and keep the money, and then use the money to move to a higher level.

Wei Yixin is the latter. He is still hoping to make another fortune before he leaves. The second phase of the project has not even started yet, but the wealthy people in Hong Kong can no longer hold back and want to invest in His Excellency the Earl!

We have the right time, place and people, all we need is a chance to show our talents!

He wrote to Allen last year, wanting to invite Allen to a Christmas party in Hong Kong, but Allen refused.

now……

As soon as Patrice encountered a little trouble, Wei Yixin jumped out impatiently.

He personally called the fat boy Wang's father.

This is a call from the Governor himself!

The old man was almost scared to death. He didn't even know what was going on when the governor scolded him on the phone. He was told bluntly that if he didn't want his son anymore, he could kill him himself. There was no need to disgust others by bringing him out, and there was no need to provoke the noble and cause trouble for him as the governor.

The old man put down the phone respectfully and went to look for his son. After learning about the situation, he discovered that his son was competing with someone for an actor.

In fact, it wasn’t really a dispute. The actor himself had no objection, but his son felt that someone was stealing his role.

Before he could come up with any bad ideas, his father came to the company to find him.

He was beaten with a belt. Fatty Wang was in his thirties and was blocked by his father in the company and beaten with a belt. He was stunned.

Fatty Wang was confused, and Patrice was also a little confused. He only found out later from David Yixun that someone was trying to snatch the actor from him. If David Yixun hadn't told him, he wouldn't have known what was going on.

Because from beginning to end, he didn't encounter any problems.

Just before leaving, Wei Yixin asked someone to find him and invited Patrice to a farewell dinner. At the dinner table, Wei Yixin told Patrice about this matter as a topic of conversation, and then...

It was David Wilson who asked Patrice to return to England this time to help him bring a letter to the Earl and to say hello to him, saying that he missed Sir Allen very much.

"???"

"Where's the letter?"

Alan frowned. He was too lazy to worry about these trivial matters. What about Fatty Wang? If he liked an actor, he would just find him. Who would dare to steal his things?

"Here it is..."

Patrice quickly handed over the letter he brought back this time with both hands.

"Okay, I get it, go ahead."

Alan took the letter and casually put it in his pocket without rushing to read it.

April 4th, a very auspicious day.

Piccadilly, London W1J 7JT.

A convoy consisting of several Toyota Century cars parked very low-key in front of the island country's embassy in the UK.

This is a very typical four-story European-style building, all white in color. The small yard in front is surrounded by a wrought iron fence, and there is a row of holly trees planted outside the fence.

A plaster flag was inserted diagonally on the main entrance of the embassy, ​​representing who this place belongs to.

After the convoy stopped, a short Japanese man got out from the right side of the second car, jogged around to the left door, bent down to open the door, and asked the people inside to get out.

Hut indicated that he didn't need help. After getting off the car, he stomped his feet lightly, straightened the wrinkles on his clothes, took out his glasses from his chest pocket and put them on, then nodded to the short islander.

The short middle-aged man bowed and stretched out his left hand, saying, "Hey, Sir Hutt, let's go in. The Ambassador is waiting for you."

Today it was Sony’s people who came with Hutt to the embassy to cause trouble!

The people from Sony were very active, even a little excited, which made Hut a little uncomfortable. He couldn't understand why the people from Sony were so excited when he clearly came to their embassy to cause trouble?

“Bang!”

The ambassador of the island country still had a smile on his face and was about to shake hands with Huth, but he knew who the person in front of him was.

Judging from his identity alone, the other party was a real British knight, very noble, and not something that a mere ambassador like him could compare to.

He even has a count behind him, which is something he cannot compare to.

What's more, the Japanese are usually very cautious and like to get information. Last year...

The Earl, who has a very positive image on the screen, is not as gentle and approachable as ordinary people think he is.

That person has a very bad temper!

It seems that because of something the reporter said, he left his manor and didn't even leave Wales, just...

Faced with such a background, the ambassador of the island country did not dare to be negligent. If he did not go to the embassy door to greet him in person, it would seem very strange. Otherwise, he would have liked to stand at the door in person waiting for the knight to visit.

He didn't say what he wanted on the phone, but the other party's tone was not very good when he called. The island country ambassador had been mentally prepared for this, but he didn't expect that when they met, Sir Hut threw a newspaper on his chest without even a handshake.

Looking at the newspaper that fell on the ground, the island ambassador squatted down to pick it up with an embarrassed look on his face. He didn't bother to read it, but stretched out his hand and said, "Sir, you have worked hard on the journey. Please take a seat."

Hut sat on the sofa expressionlessly, crossed his legs, put his hands on his knees, and looked very serious. The short middle-aged man from Sony who came with him also sat next to Hut with an unconcealable gloating on his face.

Like a dog relying on the power of its master, they also looked at their own ambassador.

"Do you know why I came to see you?"

"Ahem..." The island ambassador held a newspaper in his hand and sat diagonally opposite Hutt. He put down the newspaper and personally poured a cup of tea for Hutt and the person next to him. Hearing Hutt's question, the island ambassador said awkwardly: "Please explain, Sir."

"Humph! You are quite courageous. Take a look at the news in the newspaper first."

Hearing this, the ambassador of the island country picked up the newspaper. He didn't know which news Hut asked him to read, but if he wanted to find that special news from the entire newspaper, it would not be easy to find in a short time.

But after just a few clicks, a piece of news caught the attention of the island country's ambassador. There was no way out, there were pictures!

But after watching the news, the island country's ambassador felt a little uneasy.

In his opinion, this news was nothing. A few years ago, feminist ideas from Europe and the United States spread to the island country, and the domestic situation was chaotic. In addition, the island country's economy was developing very well, which further encouraged this trend.

Women in the island nation once shouted that everyone had three wallets!

What are three wallets?

Each of them has at least three bootlickers, some of whom are responsible for driving them around, some of whom are responsible for giving them gifts, and some of whom are responsible for giving them money.

In such an environment, it is not surprising that magical things happen.

The island ambassador looked up blankly, glanced at Hutt and said, "Sir, is this the news?"

"Um!"

Hut raised his chin slightly, pointed at the picture in the newspaper and said, "I don't know how you got this magazine, but do you know who owns it?"

“…”

A bad premonition made the island country ambassador break out in a cold sweat.

Since Hut asked this, there is no need to explain the meaning of this. This is the earl's property!

The island nation's ambassador picked up the newspaper and read the news again, this time very carefully.

Seeing that the report specifically pointed out that people who read this kind of magazine are perverts, based on this, it further pointed out that the man was indecent.

"???"

Damn, it would have been better if he hadn’t read it. After reading the news, the island country ambassador was heartbroken. He knew who the magazine belonged to and then looked at the conclusion in the newspaper. No wonder they sent the butler to his house in person and threw the newspaper at him, the island country ambassador.

It is indeed the British Empire, worthy of being an aristocrat. Even if he was so angry, Sir Hut only threw the newspaper on him instead of on his face. This is the cultivation of aristocrats!

"I'm very sorry, Sir Huth, for causing you trouble. I'll call home right now!"

The island nation's ambassador stood up decisively and gave a very standard 90-degree bow.

Before Hut could react, the short middle-aged man sitting next to him was already grinning.

"Don't worry, I haven't finished yet. This magazine is not only yours, but also involves the Navy Logistics Department and the Quartermaster Department. Every ship in our Great Britain has this magazine."

Hearing this, the ambassador of the island country broke out in cold sweat.

This kind of thing is not a small thing if you say it is small...but it is quite a big thing if you say it is big.

Once this map cannon was fired, it was said that people who read this kind of magazine are perverts. How many foreigners were insulted by this statement?

This is not just counting by the individual, but by the tens of thousands!

Thinking of this, the ambassador of the island country felt a little scalp tingling. This kind of thing is hard to take seriously. If you take it seriously... there will be big trouble!

“This…this…”

"I have sent a team of lawyers to the island country. I hope you can understand the interests involved. The Earl read this newspaper a few days ago and was very angry! He said he would investigate it thoroughly. Do you understand?"

Hut narrowed his eyes and stared at the ambassador of the island country.

Although the other party is an ambassador, His Royal Highness and the Princess visited the island country only two years ago. How long has it been since then? How dare they blatantly slander the industry of an earl, and the earl who is His Royal Highness's personal assistant? Are they looking for trouble?

Should those who cause trouble be severely punished?

He was too lazy to worry about such things, but since the young master had given the order, he would just find out the person with the problem and go straight to the other party's embassy and let them deal with it themselves.

The islanders are much crueler to their own people than to outsiders!

Now that Huth has come here in person and explained the interests involved clearly, I believe they will know what to do.

"Yes! Thank you for your hard work, sir. I will call back and state the facts. I will definitely give you an explanation."

"Hmph...you'd better hurry up."

After Hut said this, he stood up, looked at the short middle-aged man who had been watching him make fun of himself, and turned and left.

"Mr. Ambassador, I'm the head of Sony's marketing department in the UK. I can still help you get back to the point, but you'd better make the call right away. I'll take my leave now."

After Huth left, the short middle-aged man hurried to the ambassador of the island country and pretended to do him a favor.

"Thanks!"

The content of Wei Yixin's letter was very simple. Alan only had time to open his letter and read it during tea time.

Other greetings, without mentioning any self-praise, at the end of the letter, the topic of whether Alan's real estate project will start the second phase in the near future was brought up.

To be honest, Alan is still quite busy now.

On a bigger level, his food delivery company needs to be run on a pilot basis.

It is not easy to do business in Britain. The initial stage of land acquisition, decoration, information collection, employee recruitment, training, union establishment, etc. cannot be done in a short time.

A new industry cannot be operated for at least half a year.

After that, there are some small chores for the football team over there, and some chores for the film and television company.

He had to acquire foreign production lines, pick sites, and send an operations team over, and finally, he still had to make the movie.

There are so many trivial things to do, he is almost overwhelmed!

The working hours have increased by one hour every day. It’s not easy to work for more than four hours every day!

He wants to enjoy life, not do hard labor.

but……

The wealthy people in Hong Kong are so impatient that they have received letters from David Yixun several times. It would be a shame not to make money from this kind of money that is delivered to their doorstep.

Alan frowned and thought for a long time. The money from the first phase of the project was squandered by him under various pretexts. Theoretically, with the experience from the last time, the second phase of the project would be smoother this time.

But Alan wants to do something this time. He can't just dig a hole. He has to lay a foundation or something, right?
