Start by trimming cow hooves

Suri during her trip to Los Angeles.

Two professional wave-making boats were added to the island, costing a total of more than 800,000 US dollars.

With the help of a wave boat, its wake can be surfed directly, regardless of weather factors. The gameplay is simpler, and it is especially easy to learn even for novices. It is exciting and safe.

During practice wakesurfing with Daddario.

When she learned from Su Rui that Daju had the opportunity to negotiate an advertising endorsement deal with a car company for two to three million U.S. dollars, she felt a little depressed.

After being speechless for a while, Daddario spoke:

"It doesn't matter if I can't compare with others, but I'm not as good as your pet cat. This shows that accepting endorsement ads is really very profitable. If I work hard in the future, I hope to pay off the bank loan as soon as possible."

It was also Suri’s first time wake surfing.

Compared with the fear of being dominated by huge waves last time, today's situation seemed much milder. It was almost the difference between an amusement park jumping machine and a bumper car, not on the same level at all.

He had practiced twice before and he didn't panic at all.

The main reason is that you no longer have to worry about being swept into the sea by the waves, and you can finally experience the feeling of riding the wind and waves.

After hearing Daddario's words, Suri said with a smile:

"So I have always told you not to worry too much. Angelina Jolie's endorsement of luxury goods and cosmetics costs tens of millions of dollars a year. And Tom Cruise and others, the price should be about the same, even if necessary Pay your taxes and make money very quickly.”

Miss Talia, who was draining the wave boat, interrupted and asked: "What about you, boss? It seems that you haven't seen the advertisement you shot. Is it because the quote is too expensive?"

Su Rui pointed at her face and said helplessly:

"As a Chinese, it is difficult to accept big deals. Even when I was most popular a few years ago, no big names contacted me, and the endorsement prices quoted were lower than the last. Later, I made a fortune on my own, and no one even contacted me. Ask me to shoot an advertisement. If it's for online games, luxury watches, etc., give me five million US dollars a year, and maybe I'll agree. It takes a day or two to shoot it, and it's like free money."

Daddario was wearing a slightly loose black surf suit.

The upper part is tight and the waist is a bit loose.

no way.

The surf suit that fit her size couldn't fit in, and the zipper could only be pulled down to her abdomen, so she picked one that was two sizes too big and managed to squeeze it in.

She took the water out of her ears and joked:

"If I were the brand owner, I wouldn't invite you, lest I make you unhappy and then turn around and acquire my company. This is similar to how no one would ask Warren Buffett to be an endorsement. Compared with powerful businessmen, The actors are clearly on the weaker side.”

"If I invite Buffett to inspect the headquarters of Netflix Entertainment, the valuation may immediately increase by two to three billion US dollars, attracting the attention of countless people."

Su Rui thought of the movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City", which contains a clip that pokes fun at Buffett's charity lunch. If he develops into the film industry in the future, maybe it can be adapted and remade.

Thalia was only responsible for driving the boat, so she was wrapped up tightly today to prevent herself from getting sunburned.

After checking the data on the display screen, she told:

"Do you still want to continue surfing? The engine overheating prompt has disappeared. This kind of wave-making boat is too heavy. Even if you choose the best model, the engine life is only about 3,200 hours."

"Hey, the time is so short, isn't the price very high?"

"Including fuel and labor costs, chartering a boat requires at least US$200 per hour to avoid losing money. The price is expected to be set at more than US$300. At that time, it can carry up to five passengers, which averages out to dozens of US dollars per trip. "

After listening to Thalia's words, Suri spoke again:

"Then we definitely can't include this project in the package. Two wave boats are barely enough. We will charge separately for tourists to make an appointment to experience it. The ultraviolet rays are too strong today, so go back to the pier first."

The words are not finished yet.

On the sea surface next to it, a round head popped up, with its big nostrils opening and closing, looking a bit silly.

Hawaiian monk seal, Suri has seen this rare animal on the pristine beach of Lanai Island that is not open to the public. Today is the first time to observe it up close.

Daddario was startled. When he saw what it was, he patted his chest and said angrily:

"Fortunately it's daytime. Why did this guy come out with only his head exposed? He thought he had encountered a sea monster."

It was like I understood what she said.

The monk seal in the sea floated nimbly on the sea surface and patted its belly.

Thalia knew this monk seal.

He took out a small ice box from the storage box of the wave boat, opened the lid and threw a fish to it, and said:

"When a resident found it last week, the little guy was tangled in a rope and was strangled around its flippers until it ulcerated. I treated it with medicine for a few days and then put it back into the sea. I discovered that it was not flexible enough when swimming, making it difficult to swim. When you catch prey, you can only bring some fish to feed it, so as not to become food for the sharks due to lack of physical strength."

When he discovered the Hawaiian buzzard, Suri looked up Hawaiian animals online.

Hawaiian monk seals are one of the endemic species. Due to food shortages and man-made damage to the marine environment, their numbers have been declining year by year, and there are currently only about a thousand left.

After getting up, he took a fish and lay down beside the boat to feed it to the monk seals. Suri asked: "They seem to rarely come to Lanai. Where do they usually live?"

"There should have been many in Kure Atoll, Midway, Pearl Harbor, and other islands in the past. Unfortunately, they were used as food and were eaten to the point of disappearing. Unless some of them are artificially kept in captivity and allowed to live in a safe place, otherwise they will be eaten by sharks. Hunting, entanglement in fishing nets, food shortages, etc. will cause more of them to die than are born, and eventually they will become extinct."

Unlike the many mass extinctions caused by natural disasters in the history of the earth, with the rise of modern human civilization, countless species have completely disappeared.

Suri and Monk Seal looked at each other with big eyes and said:

"Talia, you usually feed more fish, and ask this guy to call relatives and friends to move to Lanai and settle down. There are several beaches on the island that are not open to the public and have been designated as protected areas. I can donate some money. To protect them."

Daddario laughed dumbly and reminded:

"The pier on Lanai is full of fishing boats, speedboats, motorboats, and sailboats. They will be scared away halfway."

Thalia continued:

"There is also the threat from stray dogs. When they can't find food, stray dogs will attack monk seals. When I was twelve years old, I saw them kill a baby monk seal on the beach. Dogs only attack their own animals. The owner is friendly, but once he is hungry, his temper becomes particularly fierce and he likes to chase people and bite them.”

Suri only knew that there were hundreds of stray cats living in Lanai Town, but he had rarely seen stray dogs. They had probably been captured because they caused public outrage.

After feeding the monk seals, take the wave boat back to the pier.

You can see many tourists offshore, practicing surfing, renting sailboats and going for a ride on the sea, all of which can create income for Suri.
