Chapter 230: Still Holding the Pipa and Half Covering Her Face



Don't think that everything is good just because America is developed these days.

There isn't even an Internet-connected Sky Eye, and blatant robberies like this happen every day, even decades later, even in big cities.

There's a reason why those superheroes are so busy.

What's more, it is in a satellite city next to Los Angeles, and this small place is even more chaotic.

Alan was thinking about what this small family could do to help him if it was supported in the future.

First of all, they have some connections in Los Angeles, and the person at the helm is a law graduate and a local, so this identity is very useful.

For example, transforming into a public relations company?

Wouldn't this help him deal with things that are difficult to resolve with explosive means?

Like in the past, if there was a disagreement, bodyguards would be sent to kill people. However, with the development of the times, we should use them as little as possible.

We must take up the weapon of law and use it reasonably!

For example, if they are not happy with someone, they can send those scoundrels who have offended them to jail through "normal" legal procedures. As long as they are in jail...

Most prisons in the United States are privately run.

Once people go in, it is much more convenient to do something in there than outside.

You can torture them however you want.

Even later, they can slowly help them take over a private prison, which can be regarded as Allen's professional family that specializes in doing dirty work in America.

He can't just send bodyguards over and use local Americans to do the dirty work. Now there will be no one to complain to, right?

After going over the idea in his mind, Allen put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, glanced at Old Carl and said, "The box office revenue from America has arrived, right? You should slowly transfer the funds to the foundation. When you return, find a few local media outlets in Los Angeles and donate to the foundation in the name of charity. You can also build up your fame and do some charity work."

Old Carl grinned. If he did this kind of transfer from one hand to the other and then involved the uninformed media and asked them to praise him, wouldn't he become Mr. Carl from Britain, with a kind face and passionate about charity?

"I understand, Master!"

Old Carl can do the dirty work, but thinking about these roundabout things is not interesting enough. After Alan's personal guidance, his thoughts became clear instantly. Isn't the work plan for the second half of the year ready? !

"You can rest here for a few days. Patrice is in Sydney on business. When you have rested a few days, you can contact him and go over to help him."

Alan told old Carl a little about what happened with Patrice.

"Hmm? Master, I don't need to rest. I'll go tomorrow!"

"What's the hurry? If you're told to rest, just rest first."

Alan looked at old Carl, who was so excited that he wanted to fly to Sydney overnight, and quickly put his hand down to signal him not to be anxious.

“…”

Seeing his young master's nonchalant expression, as if he was fishing, an idea suddenly occurred to old Carl, "Young Master, do you want to establish a deeper connection with the new Governor-General of Australia? Support him?"

"Tsk! What are you talking about? He can sit on the position of governor. His life is over. What else does he want to do? Go to work in Britain?"

Allen curled his lips in disgust and continued, "We need to use the connections he made during his tenure to support the right people."

Pointing in the direction of the Northern Territory, he said, "My steel mill, tinplate factory, and beef production area are all here. How can I feel at ease if there is no one to help me look after such a large industry?"

Alan is still very stable in doing business. These are all legitimate businesses, not one-time deals.

In addition to the initial site selection, factory construction, equipment purchase, and worker recruitment, after the products are produced, there are also issues of sales and maintaining official relations in the factory's location.

All these need to be taken into consideration. If there is no local manpower, it may be okay in the short term, but what about the long term?

Never count on people's hearts. You can't expect them to step in when something goes wrong in the future, right?

That would tire him to death, and he still wants to enjoy life.

so……

Ever since the steel plant here was built, Alan has paid more attention to Australia. This time, he contacted the newly appointed Governor-General of Australia, tried to sell himself well, give him some benefits, and lead him to find some way to make money.

His term of office is conservatively estimated to be five or six years. As long as he is in office, Allen's assets will be fine.

During these five or six years, I will slowly support a local person to help me take care of the business here.

The general plan was this. First, send Patrice to contact the other party, and then let old Carl go over in a few days to take a look, to further express Allen's importance and respect for the Australian Governor-General.

When the time comes, the subordinates will talk first, and then the two will meet, and when there is interest...

Now that we have a friendship, all the conditions are met, and the future will be easy.

Old Carl nodded deeply, finally understanding his young master's intention.

The young master is still the best. His style of doing things seems reckless on the surface, but he is very steady in secret.

How does that sentence go?

We need to use both white and black means, they complement each other!

Early the next morning, Alan got up refreshed. With the help of the servants, he washed up, stretched himself and went out.

Looking at Nicole Kidman jogging around the yard in the distance, it was too far away to see clearly whether the girl's image had changed. After waiting for a long time, when Nicole Kidman passed by Allen, Allen waved and called Nicole Kidman over.

From small waves to big waves, just a simple change of hairstyle, Nicole Kidman now gives people a completely different feeling.

The eyebrows are trimmed a little thinner and the eyeshadow is also lightly made-up, which lacks the deliberately highlighted sense of maturity and adds a bit of youthfulness and wildness.

Khaki shorts and camouflage short-sleeved shirt. After running, the short-sleeved shirt stuck tightly to the body and was soaked with sweat.

Two small arcs that weren’t very good to begin with also showed up.

Alan nodded with satisfaction, a bit like Laura.

"You don't have to run so hard, just run moderately. Just think of it as a warm-up exercise for a few days."

Allen nodded to Nicole Kidman and led her toward the "shooting range" as he walked.

Arriving at the shooting range, Allen handed Nicole Kidman a shortbow that was much smaller than the one she used yesterday, and said, "I don't need you to be able to shoot accurately, I just need you to practice your posture."

"posture?"

Nicole Kidman was slightly stunned. Wasn’t it agreed to be a reality show?

Allen smiled and motioned to Nicole Kidman to make a bow gesture.

As soon as she picked up the bow, Nicole Kidman immediately found that the bow in her hand was much better than the one yesterday. It was very easy to pull and the bowstring could even be pulled to her chest.

Allen looked at Nicole Kidman's posture, stood next to her, and said softly: "Don't hold the bowstring too far away. This bow is specially made. Look at me like this."

Nicole Kidman looked at Allen's gestures, especially the position of his hands, and her face turned slightly red. Then she imitated Allen and placed the hand holding the bowstring right between the two buns.

"Oh, right, that's it... I need you to show the wild beauty of a woman. When you stand ready to draw the bow, you should subconsciously stick out your chest. Got it? Make it stand out."

Alan originally wanted to say that she was small, but then he thought that this was a bit too hurtful to her self-esteem, so he changed it to asking her to hold her chest out.

But the meaning is similar.

Nicole Kidman looked a little unnatural after hearing this. She thought Allen disliked her even more.

Looking at Nicole Kidman who lowered her head, Allen stood behind her, stretched out his hand, grabbed her right hand, pressed her waist with his left hand and said: "Hold your chest up... Yeah, look forward, keep your eyes in the right place, put your hands here."

Nicole Kidman is not big, but she is not without it. She can feel Allen standing behind her, pressing his left hand on her waist, then putting it on the bow of her left hand, and then putting his right hand on her right hand. This can be considered real personal training.

It’s this posture, a little shy.

The two practiced their archery postures for a while, and Nicole Kidman's face became redder and redder.

I just finished running and after standing for a while I felt a little cold as I was sweating. Now the hot air is blowing on my neck, and my right hand passes by from time to time and occasionally wipes it.

Nicole Kidman felt a little overwhelmed.

Later, I simply closed my eyes slightly, and just as I was about to lean back, Alan's voice rang out again.

“Be serious!”

Obviously she was being taken advantage of, but as Alan said these words that sounded like a scolding, Nicole Kidman took the opportunity to gently break free from Alan's arms, holding the bow in her hand, looking at Alan with an embarrassed face, and opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Looking at Nicole Kidman, who is 1.8 meters tall, this size is no longer considered a small white rabbit, but a big white rabbit.

Alan found it very interesting to see the big white rabbit seemed to be frightened.

He had no intention of taking advantage of anyone just now; everything was for art.

Take it slow and teach slowly. This time, I'll play around and develop it. It feels pretty good when I think about it.

"Let's go, let's go eat first..."

Seeing Nicole Kidman looking embarrassed, Allen called her to go for dinner. When passing by Nicole Kidman, he patted her on the shoulder gently.

This action made Nicole Kidman stare at Allen's back for a few more seconds, and then follow Allen to the restaurant.

During the short training period of a few days, Allen honestly flirted with Nicole Kidman, but he kept it within a certain range and only flirted without doing anything practical.

This kind of play made Nicole Kidman doubt her life and even feel a little inferior.

Alan would occasionally point out some of her shortcomings, but this was not simply to belittle her. Instead, after she asked if there was any way to improve, Alan would tell her.

As a result, Nicole Kidman, who was born into a strict family and was a mama's girl, had a new understanding of Allen. She felt that Allen was really much higher than her and that his guidance to her was very appropriate.

With this realization, Nicole Kidman gradually began to feel more inferior. She tried to accept whatever Allen asked her to do, and she didn't even notice that her obedience was becoming stronger and stronger.

The Murray River is the largest and longest river in Australia.

On a small navigable tributary of the Murray River, three large ships sat quietly on the water.

These are two small yachts and a supply ship that provided logistical support for this shoot.

On the shore, a large piece of cleared land was used as a temporary helipad.

A small four-seater helicopter was parked there quietly, the pilot was already in position, and the photographer was sitting in the co-pilot seat, holding a portable camera.

This thing has limited clarity, but it is easy to carry. Plus, the footage this time was going to be broadcast on TV, so a lot of photographic equipment was replaced with cameras that are more convenient for outdoor use.

A bodyguard sat in the back row to act as a security guard.

Although the plot arranged by Allen is about survival in the wild, he did not expect Nicole Kidman to really survive in the wild on her own.

Everything is a routine, just act it out.

This entrance shot was modeled after the popular wilderness survival shows.

The protagonist is picked up by a helicopter, and then jumps directly from the helicopter over a river.

It looks very imposing!

Set the pace right from the start.

But not everyone has the courage to jump into a river from a height of dozens of meters.

Even if Nicole Kidman really dared, Allen would still not be happy. What if she couldn't adjust her posture well and her face hit the river surface first?

If you fall from such a high place and hit the water directly, if you are not careful, disfigurement would be the least that can happen.

This time, we will first shoot a shot of Nicole Kidman on the plane, then not actually jump. After she gets off, we will shoot a shot of her splashing in the water and then splice it together.

It's just a token of his appreciation. Allen knows very well what the selling point of his pseudo-documentary is.

There is no need for anything too exciting, the heroine is the focus!

On the front deck of the yacht, the camera was set up, and Allen helped Nicole Kidman tidy up her clothes and said, "Be careful. If you feel uncomfortable, tell me immediately. Do you understand?"

Nicole Kidman smiled and said in a sweet voice: "I see, it's that simple, no problem!"

After saying that, he stood on the deck and dived into the river.

The scene of arriving at the survival site and jumping into the river from a helicopter took an entire morning to shoot.

After all the shots were completed, the main filming finally began.

Nicole Kidman swam slowly from the river to the shore, carrying a waterproof backpack.

As soon as she stood up, Nicole Kidman shook her head sharply, and her wet blonde hair flew back violently.

Large drops of water were also thrown out with this swing, and her hair was thrown back. She had just come out of the river, and her clothes were all wet and stuck tightly to her body.

Nicole Kidman took off her outer coat, leaving only the tight short-sleeved shirt underneath.

This short-sleeved shirt is quite transparent, and you can clearly see the color of her breasts...

White tight short-sleeved shirt and black bra.

The contrast is very strong.

Alan looked at this scene and nodded with satisfaction. This kind of half-covered state was exactly what he wanted!

It seems revealing but not revealing, and it’s all about the artistic conception.

"Did you give a close-up?"

Alan turned his head slightly and asked the photographer next to him.
