Chapter 1793: Congressman on the Book

By the way, in addition to Spider-Man, Sony also owns the character Venom. In fact, they also own the copyrights of more than 900 Marvel characters, all of which are related to Spider-Man. This is why Sony dares to open the Spider-Man universe. , there are 900 characters. If you take out each character and shoot them individually, you can shoot them until you die!

Of course, although they have nearly a thousand characters, the specific characters have not been made public.

The Marvel characters currently owned by Sony include Silver Sable and Black Cat, Kraven the Hunter, Morbius, etc. This is a gold mine and also a source of confidence for Sony to negotiate.

Yang Cheng originally planned to leave, but lost track of time while chatting with Sanford. He stayed until the end of the banquet, then remembered that Luo Yue was still there, and hurriedly said goodbye and took Luo Yue home to rest. It was already late at night.

In the car, Yang Cheng apologized, "Sorry, we just talked about something~"

Luo Yue shook her head, "It doesn't matter, work is important. Donna and I have made many new friends~"

"Oh? Who do you know?"

"There are screenwriters, producers and directors, all from the entertainment industry."

"Hmm~" Yang Cheng hesitated for a moment and hesitated to speak. Luo Yue seemed to have guessed it and comforted him with a smile, "Don't worry, I know what's going on. Most of these people are here for you."

Yang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. People in the entertainment industry are too powerful. As long as you don't talk about relationships, you can talk about anything~"

"I understand, compared to this, our circle is more pure~"

"Of course, but you haven't been exposed to interest competition, otherwise you will know that no matter what circle, as long as interests are involved, it will become extremely dark~"

. . .

A pleasant and fulfilling day passed, and when the next day came together, Yang Cheng found that Luo Yue was no longer there.

When I went downstairs and saw White, he said, "Ms. Luo has gone to work~"

"Yeah~ I know, I'll drive out by myself in a while and come back for dinner in the evening~"

"Understood~"

After breakfast, we drove the Bugatti, which had not been used for a long time, all the way east.

In the greater Los Angeles area, extending from the coast to the interior, this land development has been the main theme.

The coastal areas are naturally close to the sea, and the vast area known as the "Inland Empire" is formed in the inland areas.

The "Inland Empire," as the locals call it, consists of San Bernardino and Riverside counties.

For the greater Los Angeles area, the Inland Empire is a rapidly growing suburban area with a large number of residents working in Los Angeles or Orange County. Compared with the coastal areas west of Los Angeles, the development here is relatively backward. The area was originally an important center for citrus production and developed into an important industrial area in the early 20th century.

Riverside is an important part of the "Inland Empire". As the largest city in the Inland Empire, it is about 60 miles from downtown Los Angeles, adjacent to the Coachella Valley and close to the Ontario Airport.

The city of Hesitation is located on the Santa Ana River, hence the name Riverside.

Relying on California's warm climate, the local navel orange industry developed rapidly. Later, many Renaissance-era buildings gradually developed here, and over time it became a tourist attraction. Many immigrants from the cold and wet east moved to warmer areas for health reasons. Settled in Riverside.

Southern California's first golf course and polo fields were located in Riverside.

In recent years, Hebin City has begun to attract immigrants from country Z to settle here, and many Chinese who have achieved success in their careers have also chosen to settle here. The main reason is that the land price is cheap and there are many preferential policies. In short, it is a good treasure land in the mountains.

Of course, Yang Cheng suddenly drove to Riverside City not for fun, but to meet a person, a member of Parliament who was born here and who rose to a high position because of it - Duncan Hunter.

The California congressman now serves on the Armed Services Committee of the House of Representatives, responsible for the review and approval of arms exports and procurement budgets. He is considered a powerful figure in the House of Representatives.

At this time, he was on vacation in the place of his birth to avoid suspicion. After all, he was a member of the Donkey Party.

The reason why Yang Cheng found him was because Gavin's name was on the first few pages of Gavin's secret notebook. He happened to be in Los Angeles, so how could he not pay him a visit.

When the Bugatti drove into Hebin City, he was often photographed by passers-by while waiting at red lights. Yang Cheng was used to it and turned a blind eye to it. Of course, since he dared to drive such a high-profile car, he was naturally not afraid of being noticed by interested people.

On the contrary, he also wanted to let some people know that he was here to see Duncan Hunter.

The Hunter home is located near the Santa Ana River, with mountains in the background. It is a good location with mountains and rivers.

This is a typical American pastoral style mansion. There are a large number of navel orange trees planted in the yard. It is a pity that the picking season has passed, otherwise the yellow and orange fruits hanging on each tree would be very beautiful.

The roar of Bugatti sounded in front of the gate of the manor. Soon the white wooden doors automatically opened to both sides. Yang Cheng drove in along the road. There were fruit trees on the right hand side and an open meadow on the left hand side with two horses. The beautiful quarter horse was walking freely in the pasture. Not far away, an old man wearing a cowboy suit and a cowboy hat waved a whip to drive away mosquitoes from time to time. When he saw Yang Cheng's car coming in, he raised his hand and waved. greet.

Yang Cheng parked the car in the open space, got out of the car and walked on the grass, who else could it be but Hunter.

"Good morning Mr. Hunter~" Yang Cheng greeted politely.

Duncan Hunter put his hands behind his back and smiled, "To be honest, I'm not surprised at all to receive your call."

Yang Cheng laughed and said, "Mr. Hunter, it seems you have received the news~"

Duncan Hunter lamented, "Yes, poor Gavin~"

"My condolences~"

"You sent me away, and you actually expressed your condolences to me?"

"Why not? It's just a different stance, and even without me, Gavin won't live long~"

Duncan Hunter frowned and said, "The rumors are true. He has a strange disease?"

"Yes, a disease that cannot see the light of day. God is jealous of talented people~"

Duncan was silent for a while, shook his head and said, "This is God's arrangement~"

After a pause, he asked directly, "Are you looking for me to continue my cooperation with Gavin?"

Yang Cheng solemnly said, "Yes, I can give you what Gavin can give you, and I can give you even more~"

Duncan Hunter shook his head again, "Cooperation can continue, but before that I need to see your strength."

Yang Cheng could understand that it was normal to know the strength of a partner, "For example?"

"Can I still be re-elected~"

I thought it was something, but this problem can be easily solved, so I said easily, "Don't worry, I will say hello to Richard, now you are on the same side as us~"

Duncan was a little confused, and then said in surprise, "Richard? Richard Debin?"

"Who else could it be?" Yang Cheng asked.

Duncan, who was still putting on airs at first, suddenly felt that his behavior was a bit ridiculous. This young Chinese rich man was not here to ask for his cooperation, but was actively giving him a chance.

Yang Cheng said simply, "The commission Gavin gave you before is now increased by one point. It is regarded as my sincerity. Helping you get re-elected is regarded as a meeting gift from me. Now, am I qualified to cooperate with you?" "

Duncan smiled bitterly, "Of course~"

Yang Cheng added, "Mr. Hunter, everything that happened between you and Gavin in the past has been wiped out. From now on, we will start a new cooperation."

He is hinting to the other party that he will not threaten you with the previous evidence, and you must put down your scruples and cooperate with me wholeheartedly.

Of course, both he and Duncan knew that these words were just for the sake of superficial harmony. Once something happened, the evidence that had promised not to be exposed would still be exposed.

Just kidding, anyone who has an excuse and doesn't use it is a fool.

The two walked into the horses. Yang Cheng patted the neck of one of the brown quarter horses and asked, "Is there anything I can get recently?"

Duncan hesitated and said, "It is difficult to transfer goods directly from arms dealers now, unless there is a sufficient excuse, such as supporting Africa~"

"Support Africa? Do you mean to increase deployment in Africa?" Yang Cheng was keenly aware of the crux of the problem.

Duncan Hunter couldn't help but be impressed. He didn't expect that this young man had good ZZ sensitivity.

"Yes, if the weapons flowing out of our hands are destined for Africa, the probability of passing through will be very high."

Yang Cheng frowned and murmured, "Let me think~"

"You can't rush this kind of thing, sometimes orders will fall from the sky~" Duncan Hunter reminded.

Yang Cheng retracted his thoughts and nodded, "I know, I can't say one day there will be a fight in Africa~"

Duncan snapped his fingers, "That's what it means~"

After a pause, he held the horse's reins and said, "Let's go back to the house and chat~"

Yang Cheng took a deep breath of fresh air, filled with the fragrance of green grass, and exclaimed, "I like rural life~"

"Today's young people are more yearning for big cities~"

Yang Cheng spread his hands, "I'm different. I'm used to the bustling and hustle and bustle of the city. I need the tranquility and green of the countryside to wash my eyes."

"Then you can buy a manor in Riverside City and come here for vacation in your free time~"

"I have a ranch in Santa Barbara. If you have the opportunity, you can come and sit there, ride horses, or hunt~"

"That's a good idea. Can I bring my family?"

"What I wish for~"

Entering the villa, Duncan kissed his wife, as if they hadn't seen each other for a long time. However, this woman, who was twice as tall as Yang Cheng, was really enthusiastic. When she saw Yang Cheng, her eyes lit up, and she opened her arms and hugged Yang Cheng, "Look, look." ~Whose handsome boy is this?”

Yang Cheng looked at Duncan dumbfounded, and received a helpless look.

"Hello, Mrs. Henry, I'm sorry to bother you, but I didn't bring any gifts. I have a box of red wine in my car. It comes from the Moussa Winery in Lebanon. Try the exotic style~"

"Really? Come on, I'll help you do it~"

After saying that, he took Yang Cheng out. When he saw the Bugatti, he screamed again, "What a handsome sports car, as handsome as yours~"

What else could Yang Cheng say besides saying thank you? He didn't expect that the leader of the House of Representatives had such a funny wife.

Taking out the red wine from the passenger seat, and following Mrs. Henry back to the room, Mrs. Henry said, "You can visit as you like. I'll prepare lunch and make this box of red wine. I have to use my full strength."
