Perhaps because she was a woman, Sophia didn't hear anything immediately.
But the countenance of Earl Snowden beside her immediately changed: "Shanzi, do you really plan to personally take action to overthrow that killer organization?"
Liu Qingshan nodded without hesitation: "This is inevitable, because if I don't move him, he will still touch me. Since I can't avoid it, it's better to take the initiative!"
"But have you thought about the consequences of doing that? It is said that there are thousands of people in the Shadow Organization, and you can do it alone? You just did it, didn't you think about the possible serious consequences?"
"As far as I know, Shadow is currently hidden on a small island in the Pacific. If it can be hidden so deep, it won't be known to outsiders immediately if it disappears on the sea one day, right?"
"Okay, your idea is good, but what about thousands of lives? Aren't you afraid that someone will say you care about human lives afterwards?"
"That's why I chose to tell you my plan at this time. If the time was changed, the effect would be obviously different!"
"To put it bluntly, your courage is really extraordinary. Fortunately, it didn't arouse the resentment of the audience!"
"Their reaction is only a small part, and most of them are my fans. The true attitude of the people will depend on tomorrow's newspapers. I think then we will see all kinds of comments. As long as overall They support me and I will still stick to my determination!”
At this time, Sophia had already heard the secret, and her face was full of worry at this moment: "David is right, your courage is really terrible, but compared with the several assassinations you have encountered before, your The reaction is excusable!”
"And I have no choice. If it can be solved through negotiation, no one is willing to do it!" Liu Qingshan further added, "But it is a pity that killing is a business for the Shadows, and they don't care about what they do. Right or wrong, according to the rules in the killer industry, as long as you receive money, you will not stop until you achieve your goal! So for both of us, fighting to the death is almost the only solution!"
Perhaps because he could never explain himself clearly on the subject, Lord Snowdon promptly changed the subject.
"While you were recording the show, I received several phone calls, the specific content of which was all about you. One of the calls from the Queen's office mentioned an issue, that is, the crew of "The King's Speech" has been established, and the Queen hopes you will come forward to meet Those actors said that since you wrote the script, you will have a specific image of each character in your mind, and she will trust your vision even more in the final selection!"
Liu Qingshan had a look of surprise on his face, and his surprise was real, because when it came to who had the authority to determine the role, only the biological daughter of George VI had the most say.
He handed over the entire formation of the crew to the royal family, which was actually asking for his opinion. Who would have thought that at this time, she would return the final decision-making power to him again.
Facing his puzzled expression, Earl Snowdon smiled and said: "I understand what Her Majesty the Queen means. Since she has not commented on the candidate for the role, it has already shown her approval, and finding you again is nothing more than I want you to show your due status in that future movie, or we can understand it as another form of reward from Her Majesty the Queen!"
Liu Qingshan, who had always been very alert, was a little confused at this time. On the contrary, Jin Xishan, who was a bystander, was the first to react.
She smiled and pointed to him: "You are so stupid. Her Majesty the Queen is telling you in a subtle way that no matter how great the future achievements of this movie are, your contribution to it will be indelible. It can also be understood that the British royal family remembers Thanks to your contribution, go to the crew and show your importance, because you are a decision-maker approved by the royal family!"
Even though what she said was so straightforward, she didn't tell all the benefits.
Because next, Earl Snowdon immediately added: "You have a 10% stake in "The King's Speech", which will be cashed directly to you in the form of a commission from future box office sales!"
Liu Qingshan suddenly realized, but refused the 10% share: "I did not actually invest. Obviously this 10% share comes from the noble royal family. I deserve such a generous reward, because the script came from my contribution to The infinite admiration and memory of His Majesty King George VI has never been a financial consideration!”
He once again sang carols, although he had the purpose of winning favor, but it was pragmatic to say that it would bring huge profits.
One is because he has an insight into the future box office, and the other is that he firmly believes that this movie will receive positive responses from all aspects.
We must know the future box office prospects, but it all comes from the extensive influence of the ancient British royal family, and even the several Oscar awards it finally won are also the same reason.
Once he gets considerable profits from it, he will inevitably attract a lot of jealousy and criticism, which will add many obstacles to his future development in Hollywood.
Therefore, he decisively pushed out this income. Compared with the greater wealth gain in the future, the amount of immediate benefits seemed insignificant.
Not surprisingly, the Earl and Countess of Snowdon were greatly shocked, but they did not have the ability to predict the future, nor did they have the Queen's vision. Both their hearts and expressions were deeply impressed by Liu Qingshan's atmosphere. Shocked.
"I didn't expect you to have such a broad mind at such a young age. I will feedback your attitude to Her Majesty the Queen, but I have to remind you that that 10% share is likely to be worth millions of pounds!"
Earl Snowdon's words caused Liu Qingshan to smile calmly: "Compared with money, I pay more attention to the memory of a great man. I think that being tainted with even a trace of money is a blasphemy to that sincere gratitude!"
Sure enough, his statement again won the moist eyes of Earl Snowdon: "I didn't expect that you, an Easterner, would have a sincere heart for our British historical greats!"
Sofia also lamented: "It's rare to see your true temperament. I think you and the royal family will have a close relationship from now on. Not only David's relatives, but also our Austrian royal family will remember your love!"
Although Sofia was born into an Austrian aristocracy, she was related to Princess Diana, so she naturally had a high status in the ancient British royal bloodline. The current royal bloodline is not just the Queen's lineage.
The influence of these collateral bloodlines is in the royal families of various European countries, such as the old American countries on the other side of the Atlantic. The rulers there must have this collateral bloodline in order to get enough support in elections from all walks of life.
"Let's do this," Earl Snowdon suddenly said, "the villa you and Miss Jin currently live in will belong to you from now on. No matter when and whoever owns this big house at the time, there will always be a place for you here. !”
This promise is not ordinary. A residence like this is called the inheritance house in the royal family. The castle is just a name for the outside world. The inheritance of the inheritance house is a symbol of the strength of the bloodline.
Just like this residence, in addition to being a symbol of status, it also means the glory and inviolability of occupying a huge royal land.
This park house nestled among trees has 10 bedrooms, a spacious parking garage, an outdoor swimming pool, tennis courts and cricket courts. It is served by six full-time servants including a cook, housekeeper and private governess. Living with the Earl of Snowdon and his family of four.
Liu Qingshan and Jin Xishan's bedrooms are in another building. Looking out from the cream-colored window, there is also a puzzle of open fields and sparse grasslands, dotted with green pines, white birches, and yews, and calves grazing. Rabbits and foxes scurry here and there, and the scent of the Norfolk coast, six miles away, blows in.
The fact that they were able to receive such a gift was not only a gift of wealth, but more importantly, it was the emotional connection with this royal bloodline.
Moreover, this gift is far more symbolic than practical, and it means that the two of them have aristocratic status without specific titles. According to convention, it is recognized by the royal family and cannot be rejected.
Even when the relatives of the emperor hold some celebrations or commemorative events, they are qualified to participate as relatives, and it is logical that they will be recognized by the local aristocratic circle.
Although Liu Qingshan did not value the so-called aristocratic status and did not understand the preferential treatment rights of aristocrats, he only knew that he would not need to queue up to buy boat tickets and air tickets when traveling to England in the future.
But he was afraid of being embarrassed, so he hid his only knowledge and acted like he didn't care in front of outsiders.
However, when I talked to Jin Xishan in private afterwards, she laughed at her severely.
On the morning of the next day, due to a breakthrough in their relationship, when Sophia came to the door, she did not go through the servant at home.
She directly ignored Liu Qingshan, who was scurrying back upstairs because he was wearing pajamas. She smiled at Jin Xishan, who was also dressed in the same clothes, and said: "Shanzi and the others are going to the recording studio to record new songs in the morning. Let's go shopping. You can help me by the way." Shanzi bought some clothes, what he was wearing yesterday was what David brought him!"
The suit that Mrs. Helen gave Liu Qingshan had been scratched in the assassination that night, and the suit that Earl Snowden bought for him was only temporary.
Jin Xi nodded happily: "I want to go back to Han Country with him this time. I also bought gifts for my parents today. There are so many things, so I am very busy!"
It is the nature of women to be crazy about shopping, and the Countess is no exception: "My biggest wish after marrying in London is to be able to visit shopping malls like an ordinary person without restraint, and to accompany my children to the amusement park for a whole day. , it’s a pity that it has never come true even in more than ten years, let’s just fulfill my wish today!”
In today's era, the monarchy has ceased to exist in name only, and only a glimmer of its afterglow has yet to dissipate. The British royal family still clings to its last stubbornness in etiquette.
Apparently, what happened in the past two days has changed Earl Snowdon's mood. Early this morning, he actually encouraged Sophia to drag Jin Xishan out to go shopping.
With Liu Qingshan's special hearing, he naturally heard the conversation downstairs. He just smiled at this time. He didn't have time to play today, he still had business to do.
