Richard followed the scent in front of him, and when he looked up, he saw Jessica waving her knife and fork at the dining table, enjoying a plate of fragrant dishes dripping with sauce.
Seeing him coming back, Jessica said vaguely while eating: "Boss, do you want to try the foie gras made by our new neighbor? I told you that her cooking is really good, you have to follow her
study......"
Richard looked at her with a sneer.
Oh, it’s in vain that I cooked so many meals for you, and I bought you a plate of foie gras.
Richard smiled: "I changed my mind. Let's talk about the salary increase next time."
Jessica almost bit her tongue when she took one bite, and kept holding the fork as if she was struck by lightning.
What did I say about me?
Boss, are you actually just trying to mess with me because you don’t like me?
Well, of course this is a joke. Richard wouldn't really deduct her salary for this sentence. But he is really curious. He knows that Miss Erica is proficient in eighteen kinds of weapons, such as knives, forks, swords and halberds.
But could it be that her kitchen knife was also numb?
Richard still didn't believe it. Could this woman who wielded knives and guns be better at cooking than him?
With this mentality, Richard took a bite, closed his eyes and thought about it for more than ten seconds, and then two words popped up in his mind...
...It smells so good!
In life, there are times when you just want to be fragrant.
Although the French foie gras made by Miss Erica was different from his usual cooking style, he still had to admire Miss Erica's cooking skills in this dish.
The control of the heat and the distribution of seasonings are so precise that you can't help but admire them.
Erica smiled beside her: "How is it?"
Richard pretended to put down his fork, wiped his mouth with paper, and said slowly: "It's so-so, it's not bad..."
He avoided the topic and turned to the business: "Let's get straight to the point, Miss Natchez. Since you are here this time, I take it that you have already thought of the proposal you mentioned last time?"
"Well, I've already thought about it." Erica took off her gloves and said seriously, "My life has been following a specific route since I was a child. All I have ever done is keep working hard.
To live up to my master's expectations, to become a warrior - just as the man who raised me wanted to be. But for the first time in my life, I found what I really wanted to do.
So yes, I want to keep trying - if you're still willing to give me the chance."
"What about your master? And your other colleagues?"
As he spoke, Richard picked up his fork again and continued to eat foie gras. It wasn't that he didn't want to cook it and keep his grace, but if he continued to watch like this, this plate of foie gras would be eaten by the mouth next to him.
The foodie Jessica has been wiped out, which is a pity when you think about it...
"They have no objection." Erica shrugged, "At least my master agreed. It doesn't matter to anyone else. Anyway, I only take orders from him."
Affected by the wave of stars in this era, young men and women born in this era more or less have a star dream hidden in their hearts, and Erica is no exception. Before, she devoted herself to training and tasks, working hard
She never had any unnecessary thoughts about meeting Gunsou and Zhenchun's expectations of her as a warrior. Until this time, she was inexplicably dragged onto a pirate ship to make a movie for Richard, and then she accidentally became a little angry.
After a while, Miss Killer realized that she also had a heart to chase dreams.
"That's good. The response to the first movie was very good. I'm already preparing for the next one. There just happens to be a role that suits you. I'll be ready to sign a film contract with you in a while."
As Richard said, he simply pulled the rest of the small plate of foie gras in front of him and slowly enjoyed it. Jessica sat across the table, staring blankly with a fork in her hand, and couldn't help but whisper: "Boss, you are not
To say that this dish is so-so is just like that..."
"Yeah, but I'm thinking about you." Richard smiled, "This kind of foie gras comes from overfed geese, and it usually has about 50% fat content and one-third of the saturated fat content.
Fat is extremely unhealthy and can easily lead to weight gain. So for the sake of your health and figure, I have to bear all this."
As he spoke, he started to eat without any worries. He actually had the spirit of "If I don't go to hell, who will?"
Jessica got up angrily and went back to the room. Erica didn't take it seriously and just smiled and asked: "So Mr. Li, can you tell me what the next movie will be about? Is it a superhero theme? Is it the previous one?
Is it a sequel to the movie?”
"No, but it's similar to a superhero theme." Richard said vaguely, "We are going to make "Ultraman" for the next movie."
Yes, filming "Ultraman" was not a whim, but something he had planned for a long time.
And the timing was just right. The appearance of alien beasts in New York City caused an uproar. The announcement that the military was secretly trying to create alien beasts made the already panic-stricken people instantly excited. And correspondingly,
Ultraman, who briefly appeared in New York and took away the alien beasts in time to avoid casualties and property losses, also became one of the hot spots of attention.
This movie doesn't just exist to make money, at least for Richard, it shouldn't be a commercial movie. This movie should have a more significant meaning.
As mentioned before, the disclosure of the existence of alien beasts will inevitably cause large-scale panic and cause worry and fear among people all over the world. Unfortunately, alien beasts happen to be creatures that feed on fear.
By devouring fear, they can continue to evolve and become stronger.
Before, Richard also intentionally cooperated with SHIELD to cover up the existence of alien beasts, but Botu's rampage in New York made this impossible. After all, there is currently nothing like "Nexus TV" on Marvel's earth.
With an artifact like the "Forget River" that can erase memories on a large scale, from the moment the alien beast appeared in New York, things were destined to be impossible to cover up.
Since we can't cover it up, we might as well change our thinking. For example, give people a light, a light that can dispel any darkness and bring hope of dawn. It is like a lighthouse under the vast night, telling people that they don't need to be afraid.
So this is what this movie, which has been named "Ultraman", needs to convey to audiences around the world, its primary mission.
