Chapter 434 Beautiful and Expensive
2002, March 10.
Los Angeles International Airport, a huge modified Boeing 747 landed slowly on the runway.
When the four Rolls-Royce BR525 engines on the plane were completely shut down.
The window of the plane opened, the boarding car picked up, and the bodyguard captain Edward appeared first.
After confirming the identity of the pick-up staff below, Edward turned around and said a few words.
Abel's figure appeared behind Edward, and then got off the plane.
Ten minutes later.
A long convoy of Cadillacs and Lincolns slowly drove out of the special channel of Los Angeles International Airport.
In the cabin of the Cadillac monster.
Abel is on the phone with LaPierre, executive vice president of the NRA Association.
"I've arrived, I just got off the plane, I'm going now... You can actually do it yourself, I don't care anyway."
"That's not okay."
In the microphone of Abel's mobile phone, the voice of Wayne Lapierre, executive vice chairman and CEO of the National Rifle Association came.
"Abel, you are our chairman. You can't keep silent on many public affairs of the NRA. For God's sake, this time you should come forward no matter what. Even if you don't speak, just appear OK."
Listening to LaPierre's pleading words, Abel sighed helplessly.
"Why-"
"Okay. I promise you, it can be regarded as fulfilling my last duty as the chairman of the board this year."
"Haha—then it's a deal. We're all waiting for you."
"Um."
Abel hung up the phone, and said helplessly to Edward in front, "Go to the Los Angeles Convention Center."
Edward nodded yes, picked up the walkie-talkie and said a few words.
The convoy changed direction and headed for the Los Angeles Convention Center in downtown Los Angeles.
This time when he came to Los Angeles, Abel planned to leave for John after finishing some matters on the west coast.
Visit Li Fuzhen who is about to give birth.
Stay in Han Country for a day or two, and then depart from Han Country for Europe.
Before leaving New York, he received a call from Lapierre, CEO of the NRA Association.
LaPierre wanted Abel to appear at a nationally televised debate session open to the public at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
This debate meeting was initiated by the NRA Association and supported by the California Prosecutor's Department to discuss relevant aspects of the national control of wooden warehouses.
Similar debates are held several times a year in the United States, many of which are televised nationally.
Lapierre said that Abel, as the chairman of the National Rifle Association, is almost at the end of his term, and it is impossible not to have such a debate meeting.
In that case, the media will have to suspect that Abel, the chairman of the NRA, is dissatisfied with the officials of the association or the association itself...
So LaPierre begged him to do it anyway, before the association's election season in June.
Just when Abel was coming to California, Lapierre directly invited him to participate in this debate at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
Facing Lapierre's request.
Abel thought of how the NRA protected him in a sense when he was fledgling.
Even if this kind of protection is bought with his own money.
But in the future, I will use the power of the NRA to some extent.
Such as Alexander and Neil, and even Ikana's father in the future.
Their careers may need the help of the National Rifle Association.
Then it is necessary for me, the chairman of the board, to perform my duties.
He just agreed to Lapierre's request just now.
About forty minutes later.
Abel's convoy drove into downtown Los Angeles.
Here is the business district of Los Angeles, with diverse residential areas.
Contains fashion districts and slums, with a subway system hub.
Banks, department stores, and movie theaters, at the same time attracting citizens and tourists to the area, have been sluggish for decades due to the economic downturn.
Different from other areas, in downtown Los Angeles, few rich people are willing to live here.
The reason is simple, it's fine during the day.
At night, looking at the streets and alleys here, there are a large number of blacks and homeless people everywhere, and you can understand why the rich are unwilling to live here.
The convoy arrived outside the Los Angeles Convention Center.
There is a reason for this debate today, the conference center is already crowded with people outside the conference center.
A large number of supporters who demanded the control of wooden warehouses, as well as those who opposed the control of wooden warehouses, appeared outside the conference center.
These guys, taking each other's hats, holding up flag titles, yelling.
There are also a large number of current affairs reporters, with cameras and video cameras, filming and interviewing everywhere.
The crowd gathered very densely.
The Los Angeles police also dispatched a large number of manpower to prevent bad incidents.
When Abel's convoy arrived, the Los Angeles police soon came up to inquire.
After learning that the person present was actually the richest man in the world.
The chief of the Los Angeles Police Department's downtown branch, who is in charge of today's mission, will appear immediately.
"Oh, Mr. Smith, hello, hello."
Abel smiled, didn't respond much, and looked a little arrogant.
It's a bit like those Han Guo chaebols when they face the Han Guo police.
In the United States, consortiums are actually like this.
The plutocrats are just a poor imitation of the fathers of the father country.
Regarding this, the branch chief didn't take it seriously at all, but continued to communicate with Edward with a smile on his face.
The branch chief knows, let alone himself.
Even if the Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department appeared here, it would be nothing in front of him.
Didn't you see that even Mr. Mayor is respectful in front of him?
The director of the sub-bureau reported it, but the director-general was shocked and immediately sent more people.
Abel Smith was already in Los Angeles, had an accident.
If it happens again, then the Los Angeles Police Department and the gang won't have to mess around.
After such a delay, the reporters and the public also knew about the arrival of the richest man in the world.
The crowd was in an uproar, whether they supported or opposed the control of Mucang, they all shouted loudly.
Abel didn't even get a response.
He knew that these people were useless for business other than to join in the fun.
And after passing through the double security check of Rock Security and Los Angeles Police Department.
A group of reporters got the chance to interview Abel before he entered the conference center.
"Abe, what do you think of this wood storage debate? What do you think about the 486 wood storage cases that occurred in the United States last year?"
"Abel, you are the chairman of the NRA Association. Many people say that you are responsible for the large number of wooden warehouse cases in the United States. Do you have anything to say?"
"Abel, Mr. Brown, the Attorney General of California, claims that the NRA has done many wrong things. As the director, what do you want to say to Mr. Brown?"
"..."
In the passageway from the conference center to the debate exhibition hall, Abel was surrounded by reporters on the third floor and the third floor, surrounded by all kinds of questions.
In the spacious passage, not far from where Abel was surrounded.
Many local politicians and celebrities in California looked at what happened in the passage with some taste and helplessness.
And some California celebrities who were interviewed just now and were immediately thrown aside by the reporters after Abel appeared, including the former governor of California and current Attorney General Jerry Brown, couldn't help sighing.
The last time Abel came to California, Jerry Brown found a good opportunity. There were big guys in the donkey party supporting him, and he wanted to do something against Abel.
But before the donkeys could act, those **** KBFZ took action against Abel.
This forced the donkey party and Jerry Brown to postpone or even cancel the action.
At this time, Abel came to California again, and the welcome he received was even stronger than himself.
Jerry Brown knew that it was really not easy to target this guy.
"Don't be surprised, in the United States, where he appears, other people will become supporting roles."
Perhaps he saw Jerry Brown's helplessness.
Standing aside, Richard Gephardt, the current minority leader of the House of Representatives with a higher status than Jerry Brown and one of the two whips of the Donkey Party, said softly.
In today's debate on controlling wooden warehouses, there is naturally the power of the donkey party.
A large part of the audience of Who Called the Donkey Party support the control or even prohibition of Mu Cangzhi.
So many times, donkeys are not very popular with the NRA.
Fortunately, during this period, the donkey and the elephant have not yet started to fight fiercely.
For the sake of insurance, the NRA has always put its eggs in multiple baskets.
This makes the NRA's investment in elections always indiscriminate, and both donkeys and elephants can share.
At most, I can enjoy more like here.
Unlike in the past, the NRA's bewildered donkey was forced to stand on the side of the elephant...
Because of this, in today's debate, the donkey's position is neutral and biased.
In doing so, they can please their audience without offending the NRA too much.
"I understand too." Jerry Brown sighed silently, and then showed his signature hearty smile:
"Don't say it's us, even the one in the white house will lose his glory around him. Let's go in, Richard."
Richard Gephardt nodded, and two donkey bosses entered the arena quietly.
Abel, after dealing with the reporters, he also entered the venue.
His arrival caused an uproar in the debate scene already in place.
NRA CEO Lapierre and a group of association officials greeted him with smiles on their faces.
The local celebrities who appeared in the debate later, or American celebrities, such as Jerry Brown, Richard Gephardt, etc., were also photographed by the reporters and came to shake hands and hug him with smiles on their faces.
As the chairman of the association, Abel said a few words at the beginning.
This on-site debate facing the whole United States can be regarded as the official start.
The affirmative in the debate are representatives of several college and high school students across the United States.
She/they are eloquent young people specially selected from the school where the Mucang case happened last year.
They are considered to be the smartest and most outstanding group of people of their age.
Zipperton back then, on the surface, was also this kind of person.
There is only one person on the opposing side, a full-time lobbyist for the National Rifle Association, and his name is Justin Bick.
The debate begins soon.
The ending is no surprise.
A group of young and energetic Xiaozheng Tai and Xiaoluoli, facing their peers in school, or very eloquent.
But this time, he was facing a professional player, one of the NRA's professional public relations managers.
Young people argue for justice against the public relations manager representing the evil NRA.
Being satirized by the evil public relations manager who has no elder style all the way, two of them even cried anxiously under the mocking eyes of everyone...
This is so normal.
The NRA has never lost a similar debate press conference.
As the oldest and largest civil political organization in the United States, the National Rifle Association does the most things, which is to do whoever wants to propose the control of wooden warehouses.
From the grand commander to the ordinary town councilors and other small roles, there are no exceptions.
Like the future in the parallel time and space, Lao Ao proposed to discuss the control of the wooden warehouse nationwide in order to please the audience of the wooden warehouse.
Then the National Rifle Association was completely forced to go to the elephant.
And a public relations manager like Justin Bick’s task in the association is to be a professional who is responsible for lobbying, proposing conditions, conducting various transactions, and making people shut up all day long.
Guys like this, the NRA keeps a dozen…
All of them are very powerful, and their professional ability is not inferior to those barristers.
Speaking of letting the United States control the wooden warehouse, in the opinion of the chairman of the board, Abel, it is really a nonsense thing.
We must know that among all countries in the world, the United States has the most wooden warehouses, with about 2.7 billion to 3.1 billion wooden warehouses circulating in society.
Various light weapons manufacturers are still producing millions to tens of millions of them every year.
That is to say, this number will continue to increase.
If the United States can never collapse, maybe the number will exceed 10 billion in the future.
So how to control?
The most important thing is to have a wooden warehouse, which is written into the U.S. Constitution.
To control the wooden warehouse, you need to repair the line.
The U.S. Constitution is not a constitution like neon toilet paper.
And owning Mu Cangzhi has penetrated into the blood of Americans since the Mayflower.
What's more, look at the owners of those arms companies, all of which are owned by the top ten consortiums in the United States.
Control the wooden warehouse? Control your hair.
So every time there is a large-scale and hugely influential Mucang shooting case, the commander-in-chief and politicians will come out to speak, and some people will cry in front of the TV.
But as the incident passed, the voice of controlling Mucang was quickly left behind, as if nothing had happened.
Also, if private individuals in the United States do not have wooden warehouses, then the so-called non-concession law and the castle law will be meaningless.
If you really want to completely control the wooden warehouses in the United States, it is as impossible as letting the white houses level Wall Street.
After fulfilling his duties as the chairman of the National Rifle Association.
Abel chatted with a few local celebrities.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, his convoy left downtown Los Angeles and headed for Beverly Hills.
The motorcade was halfway through, passing by a Bulgari jewelry flagship store on Sunset Boulevard.
Abel said two words to Edward.
The convoy continued to leave, but one Cadillac Escalade remained.
Two bodyguards got off the car and walked into the Bulgari jewelry store.
About ten minutes later, two bodyguards came out with large water-green bags in their hands, and drove to keep up with the convoy.
Spend a little money to make the beauties happy, and you will usually get more considerate service at night, maybe you can add a meal or something.
This is a basic operation for Abel many times.
What's more, he doesn't even have to take the initiative to choose, he only needs to move his mouth, everything is too simple.
"Wow, they're so pretty! Thank you honey, I love this set of renderings of New York Deco skyscrapers, boo—"
Mansion at 10410 Bellagio Road, Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.
In the evening, the sun sets, and the warm yellow sunlight dyes the entire Beverly Hills golden, which looks beautiful and expensive.
It's like the price of the house here, and the payment required to play with women here.
Beautiful and expensive.
In the outdoor garden of the mansion.
Under the setting sun, Nicole Kidman, the white and dazzling Australian Aries.
She was happily sitting in Abel's arms, with her right hand around Abel's neck, and a sparkling diamond necklace on her left hand.
On the table in front of the two of them, there was a large long jewelry box. There were also a pair of earrings, bracelets, and flower-shaped rings. The design inspiration of the whole set of jewelry came from the skyscrapers in New York, which looked magnificent and beautiful. Very unique.
Beside Mrs. J and Mrs. Y, is Cate Blanchett with a big belly.
In front of her, there is also a Bulgari top jewelry box like the Tuao Aries.
But the style is different. Kate’s is a typical Greek mythology style, using many design symbols of Greek gods.
Of course, the two jewelry sets have one thing in common.
That is, they are both Bulgari's top flagship series, and they are all equally expensive.
A complete set will cost almost one million dollars.
"It's good if you like it, but if you really want to thank me, you can wear them at night and let me enjoy them under the light. I think you will be more charming..."
The scumbag man didn't care about Kate who was next to her with a big belly, and had a reckless conversation with the scumbag girl.
"Giggle... just wear them? What a great idea, as long as you like!"
Nicole said happily.
"snort-"
Kate snorted next to her, "I'm going to do maternity fuck."
After she finished speaking, she left with a dark face.
Abel didn't care either.
He has always been tolerant of women who are pregnant by him.
"Ah... honey..."
As soon as Kate left, the Tuao big Aries directly "gnawed" his ears.
"I also want to do maternity exercises like Kate, it looks very good."
"Oh, really?"
Abel was holding her, his hands had already gone where they should go.
"Of course it is true, but I am not pregnant yet. Although I have always wanted to be pregnant, I want to be your pregnant..."
Tuao Big Aries said in a seductive voice:
"If you don't believe me, look for yourself, my body is ready for itself..."
"Then what are you waiting for! I think this place is very good."
The sky is sitting on the ground, and in the garden of the mansion for a while, the tunes played by the ancestors of human beings in primitive times to reproduce life are reproduced.
The next morning.
Abel woke up from his sleep, and naturally let go of his An Lushan claws.
He lowered his head and shut his back to him, the hair of the Tuao big white sheep stuck to his arms.
Looking at her flawless white back, Abel couldn't help but think of last night, hanging in the air under the light, flickering bright light all night.
He smacked his sip, with some aftertaste.
For women who are as immune to glitter as the evil money-grubbing lizard dragons of the west.
Beautiful jewelry will make them extremely excited.
At the same time, it will also allow Abel to enjoy a more delicate service without any dead ends.
Who wins and who loses is really unclear.
Leaving Nicole, who was dead asleep, he got up to wash.
At the breakfast table, looking at Blanchett who hesitated to speak.
Abel cut off a large piece of Tomahawk steak on the plate, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed a few bites.
He said casually: "Don't worry about Mr. Andrew Upton, he went back to Australia just as a matter of routine. I didn't ask him to go there specifically, but he volunteered to go after he heard that Smith Media was going to start business there."
Kate was startled, with a complex expression on her face, with some shame and apprehension, and asked carefully: "Is what you said true?"
"I don't have to lie to you."
After taking a sip of the table wine, Abel said casually:
"As long as you are obedient, I promise, Mr. Upton is safe."
Kate had complicated thoughts, thinking of her past, and then looked down at her swollen belly and the powerful big devil opposite.
She thought to herself, do she still have a choice?
Whether it is reality or psychology, I am already hopeless!
"I promise."
She looked directly at Abel and said softly.
