Chapter 169 The Law of True Fragrance (Fourteen Updates)

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 ate in her mouth and said vaguely: "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 tell her study"

Richard sneered at her.

Oh, it’s in vain that I cooked so many meals for you, and they 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 in 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 was a joke, Richard wouldn't really deduct her salary for this sentence. But he was indeed curious. He knew that Miss Erica was 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:

So delicious!

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 guess 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, "Ever since I was a child, my life has been following a specific route. 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 me 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 Richard said this, he picked up his fork again and continued eating foie gras. It's not that he doesn't want to keep brewing and maintain his grace, but if he continues to watch like this, this plate of foie gras will be wiped out by Jessica, the foodie next to him who can't stop eating. It's a pity to think about it.

"They have no objection." Erica shrugged, "At least my master agrees. It doesn't matter to anyone else. Anyway, I only take orders from him."

Affected by the wave of celebrities 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 naturally no exception. Before, she had devoted herself wholeheartedly to training and missions, striving to meet Gunsou and Zhenchun's expectations of her as a warrior. She had never had any unnecessary thoughts. It wasn't until this time that she was inexplicably dragged onto a pirate ship to make a movie for Richard, and then accidentally became a little popular, that Miss Killer discovered 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, didn't you say that this dish is just so-so?"

"Yeah, but I'm thinking about you." Richard smiled. "This kind of foie gras comes from overfed geese. It usually has about 50% fat content and one-third of the saturated fat content. Fat is extremely unhealthy and can easily lead to obesity. So for the sake of your health and figure, I have to bear these."

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 you are going to do in the next movie? Is it a superhero theme? Is it a sequel to the previous 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 is 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 boil. 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's not supposed to be a commercial movie. This movie should have a greater meaning.

As mentioned before, the disclosure of the existence of alien beasts will inevitably cause large-scale panic, causing worry and fear among people around the world. What is very unfortunate is that the alien beasts happen to be creatures that feed on fear. By devouring fear, they can continue to evolve and become stronger.

Richard had previously intended to cooperate with SHIELD to cover up the existence of the alien beasts, but Botu's rampage in New York made this impossible. After all, there is currently no artifact on Marvel's Earth that can erase memories on a large scale like the "Lethe" in the Nexus TV series. From the moment the alien beast appeared in New York, things were destined to be impossible to cover up.

Since you can't cover it up, it's better to change your mind. For example, giving people a light, a light that can dispel any darkness and bring hope of dawn, 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.
