Blackstone Code

Some people have never been exposed to art, but when they see art embodied in concrete form, they know at first sight that it is art!

The audience's emotions were attracted by the body movements of the opera singers on the stage. Their lines, lyrics, and rich or plaintive voices touched the soft hearts of every audience member!

Lynch was no longer attracted by the simple skin color and the undulations of the body surface. He began to really pay attention to the content of the opera.

Some art seems a little sentimental, but art is art, even if it is sentimental, it is also sentimental art.

Some astringent feelings may look like art, but astringent feelings are still astringent feelings after all, and their vulgar and despicable nature cannot be changed. Therefore, no matter how well packaged astringent feelings are, they cannot become art.

If you want to ask what is the big difference between the two, it may be contagiousness.

Works of art can cause people to have a kind of empathy from within, which will bring into the emotions of the art creators when they create.

Angry, sad, painful, happy... While appreciating art, you can also feel the power that the creator wants the audience to feel!

As for astringent love, it can only inspire desires in people's hearts, ugly desires!

So, this is art, this is not irony, this is very true art!

Austin was quickly attracted by the plot. When the whole chapter ended, she breathed a heavy sigh of relief, "Maybe... this is the characteristic of their performance, right?"

She had never seen an opera, but she knew that this was definitely not sentimental. She was completely immersed in the plot, unconsciously.

Even at this moment, she was still worried about the next plot.

As for whether this is a characteristic of their performance, it actually doesn't matter anymore.

Austin looked at the other seats, and she was a little curious, "What are those people doing?"

Lin Qi looked around and saw that there were some waiters next to many seats.

The seats in this opera house are not crowded or crowded together. It can even be said that there are a few seats. Each small area is separated, but each small area is in the best viewing position.

They were now surrounded by many waiters, and Austin was a little confused.

Lynch raised his hand slightly, and the waiter who had been paying attention immediately came over with a tray, "Mr. Lynch..."

There was a piece of paper and a pen on his tray. Lynch picked up the pen and wrote a number at random, ticked a box with printed content, and then put the pen back.

After the waiter left, Austin asked, "What is that piece of paper on his tray for? I still don't quite understand."

"Some people may be very interested in those actors, you know, rich people have weird sexual preferences."

"They may like a certain character very much and hope to have a deeper relationship with this character."

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s the active or passive party, whether it’s the one who bears it or the one who imposes it.”

"So after each chapter, if you're interested in them, you can choose an actor, check off their role, and write down how much you can pay for it."

After hearing this, Austin became habitually silent. She felt that her world view was collapsing.

She wasn't even looking forward to the subsequent plot at all. The thought that these actors might keep entering different rooms after the performance was over, made Austin a little nauseated.

The expectations and yearnings for these artists have also disappeared.

"You just...", she made a writing gesture, as if asking Lynch what he had just filled in.

"Queen, don't you find it interesting?"

Austin pursed his lips with an "I knew you were fucking different from others" expression on his face, "I thought you chose the princess."

"Only what you think!" Lynch responded with a smile.

The following chapters do not have the previous characters and are the content of another scene.

This is one of the reasons why opera is sometimes difficult to be accepted by everyone. Sometimes its narrative style is confusing!

Senior opera fans who don’t know the content of each script, and those who are hearing opera for the first time, may not even know what these people are performing or what the relationship between the characters is.

And those screenwriters and writers who have a very high status in the industry seem to have taken a wrong path. They constantly use various description methods to "show off their skills" in their scripts, ignoring whether people can understand their expressions.

Recently, there have been some new voices in the opera world. Some young opera singers believe that opera should be accessible to everyone.

Excessive pursuit of artistry and various metaphors will become obstacles to the popularity and development of opera!

Opera will eventually wither as the older group of committed, opera-loving people leave.

However, the initiatives of these people have little practical value, because the people who have the right to speak in each industry are not the reformists like them.

After listening to the opera for a while, the two left the opera house at around six o'clock.

This was a very rare experience for Austin. Her life before was very simple, just fighting the smugglers.

The smell of guns, ammunition, and gunpowder wafted out after the explosion. She had never enjoyed an opera until today.

She felt that if she had the chance in the future, she would go to the opera again. It was slightly more interesting than watching a movie. It would be even better if the actors could wear clothes!

After refusing the help of the usher, the two of them wandered on the street. There was still more than an hour before the party, and they just strolled around casually.

Today, all consumption here is paid for by Paradise Island Company. It seems that they may lose a lot of money. After all, the islands are full of top luxury brand stores.

Any product costs five or even ten figures, and there are many people invited. Just buying something from these people is enough for Paradise Island Company to feel pain.

But in fact, this kind of thing will not happen. If a multi-millionaire does something embarrassing just to get a small advantage of tens of thousands of yuan, they will not become a multi-millionaire!

Even if they have a product they like, they will still pay for it!

Everything here tells everyone that Bliss Island will become a special place.

"What do you think of this place?"

Lynch took the initiative to ask this question, "Maybe we can cooperate on some issues."

Austin thought carefully for a while, and she felt that Lynch could be trusted.

First of all, he is the consultant of the Security Committee. This status can already explain the problem. Most people simply cannot get such a status.

Secondly, he has always had a good relationship with Mr. Trueman, Mr. President, and the Department of Defense. In the eyes of the top federal officials, he has his own status.

Finally, Lynch is a person who is responsible, has a sense of justice, perseverance, bottom line and ideals!

She felt she could tell him.

"Recently, the superiors are pursuing some cases related to human trafficking. They followed a clue to Paradise Island, so they arranged for me to come and take a look at the situation here."

Austin told the truth, but not in detail.

They received reports from some informants that Paradise Island had acquired a large number of high-end slaves from the outside world and had secretly sent them to the island.

Everyone is well aware that some people in the Federation are still keeping slaves and using and torturing slaves.

Especially in the northern and western regions, as well as in some indigenous reserves, this kind of thing can be regarded as a secret that cannot be told.

Those slave owners are also very smart. They will not show these things in front of people easily. They will not let people know that they are still using slaves to torture them.

This is not in their interests and will also trigger strong protests from people at the bottom of society, so they will use it in places far away from people.

Bupen is different. From the map, not far away is the Presidential Palace and the Ministry of National Defense. This is the core area of ​​the federation.

If something related to slaves is exposed here, the Federation's international image will take a severe blow.

This is exactly what the Federation cannot afford. They are actively recruiting more people to their side, always playing the role of "friends of justice."

If a scandal is exposed internally, their business image will be ruined!

The investigation is part of the reason, and part of the reason is that the federal government, especially the security services, wants to destroy the "independence" of Bliss Island.

As long as it can be proven that federal citizens have been victimized on this island, and that someone at the Paradise Island Company is committing abominable moral and ethical crimes, then it is only natural to launch an action against "international crime" under the auspices of the federation. .

Wouldn't it be perfect to arrest Horn, dismantle the Paradise Island Company, and then take this place as our own, completely eliminating this uncontrollable factor?

Some big shots don't have any objections to this. The federal government has guaranteed that it will not infringe on their privacy and will protect their legitimate rights and interests in accordance with the law.

This is why they are willing to give money without taking any responsibility

Many people may have invested tens of millions, but they refused to hold shares in Paradise Island Company, so that they would not be jointly and severally liable.

They can even file a claim against Paradise Island Company because they are "victims", get back the funds they invested, and occupy a villa in vain!

Capitalists are never philanthropists. When they give without thinking of anything in return, their demands must exceed everything they can see on the table!

After hearing what Austin said, Lynch didn't have much hope.

Horn must know this, and he must have countermeasures.

From the name he gave this place and his company, we know that this place will become a place without law, a place where money dominates everything, a place dominated by crime and cruelty!

He was not optimistic about the ideas of those in Austin, the Intelligence Bureau and the Security Committee. They were a bit too conceited.

Although they show that they take it seriously, they are still too conceited!
