America gains both fame and fortune

Chapter 586: Teacher Ma has no moral principles
The sound of motors hummed from the water. Several speedboats were ready to go. Martin put on his quiver, took his recurve bow, and boarded the speedboat driven by Bruce.

Behind her, Kate Upton, who was wearing light clothing, held out her hand: "Master."

Martin pulled her and said, "Be careful."

Kate Upton got on the boat steadily and said, "I grew up in Miami, Florida. I have been dealing with water and boats since I was a child. In addition to horse riding, I am best at water-related sports."

Martin nodded and said, "After I pull up the fish I shot, you will be responsible for throwing them into the cabin."

Kate Upton responded: "No problem."

The speedboat next to them slowly sailed away from the pier. David Fincher, who was on the boat, was carrying a shotgun and said to Martin, "The weapon you are using is too primitive. You will lose the game."

Mene, who had just come from Los Angeles the weekend before, stood on another boat and shouted, "If Martin uses a gun, it will be too unfair to us!"

Producer Danu's boat overtook it: "Mené is right, it's only fair to give Martin a bow and arrow and a pistol."

A total of six speedboats drove out of the dock and rushed towards the vast lake.

For this fishing activity, Jillian found a local club and organized it under the club's name. The advantage was that she could hunt fish under the guidance of professionals and use compliant firearms.

Bruce drove the speedboat toward the left front, while Martin stood near the bow, carefully observing the movements on the lake.

The lake is connected to the Mississippi River and is also infested with Asian carp.

And because of the good water quality and abundant aquatic plants, it has become a habitat for many large fish.

The six speedboats separated on the vast lake and soon disappeared from view.

There was a faint sound of gunfire.

Kate Upton looked at Martin with great concern. A bow and arrow was definitely not as good as a shotgun.

Martin, pinned to the speedboat, drew an arrow and placed it on the string of his compound recurve bow.

When I was a stuntman in my previous life, I specialized in archery and became good at riding and shooting.

In the past two years, I have practiced specifically for the filming of "John Wick".

Bruce operated the speedboat and made a large S-shape on the calm lake. As the water surface was disturbed, fish began to explode out of the water.

A big fish jumped out in front of the right.

Martin has quick eyes and hands, his bow is like a full moon and his arrow is like a shooting star.

Just as the big fish was about to fall into the water, the arrow pierced its round body, bringing out a puff of blood.

The fish fell into the water and struggled desperately, trying to shake off the arrow that pierced its body.

Martin grabbed the spear line with the arrow in his hand and pulled it back.

The fish was very strong, and since it was the first time for Martin and Bruce to work together in this area, it took them a little time to drag the fish to the side of the boat.

This is a very large carp, it looks like it weighs at least twenty kilograms.

Martin didn't need to use a scoop net. He just lifted the fish onto the boat, removed the hook and arrow, and threw the fish overboard.

Kate Upton went to pick up the fish. She was very skilled. She held the fish's gills with both hands, picked it up and threw it into the cabin.

Martin gave her a thumbs-up and looked for a new target.

Soon another fish jumped out of the water, much larger than the previous one.

Martin tightened his grip on the bow.

Bruce turned that way.

Just as the water exploded, Martin turned the bow slightly and released the bowstring.

As the sound of breaking wind rang out, a flower of blood bloomed again.

As soon as Martin grabbed the spear line, he heard a whistling sound coming from behind him.

When he subconsciously lowered his head and turned around, he caught a glimpse of a big fish jumping out of the water!

The fish jumped higher than the side of the boat!

This may be a male fish. Perhaps he has had enough of being a fish and wants to learn about mammals and experience what it feels and tastes like to suckle milk, so he flies towards Kate Upton.

But it jumped over, and after its head missed the target, it waved its tail in struggle.

If the head can’t experience it, the tail can.

Martin heard a crisp sound, and Kate Upton, who was originally sitting on the boat, fell down holding her chest and uttered a scream.

The big carp that jumped up had used up all its strength and fell into the cabin with a bang.

Kate Upton was in so much pain that tears came out of her eyes, but she showed her tough girl nature. She stood up and pressed down the big fish, picked up a short stick beside her, and hit the fish on the head with it.

"I..." She covered her chest and gasped, "I'm fine."

Seeing that she was not in serious trouble, Martin turned around to pull in the fish.

In just that moment, the fish underwater dragged him to the bow of the boat with an incredibly strong pull.

Martin put down his recurve bow, grabbed the spear line with both hands, and helped the winch at the bow to pull the fish together, while shouting, "Bruce!"

Bruce drove the speedboat and cooperated with Martin in fishing.

I don’t know how big the fish under the water is. Even with Martin’s powerful strength, he feels like he will be pulled into the water at any time.

After struggling for a while, it was found that the power of modern machinery was ultimately not something a wounded fish could resist.

A meter-sized black carp was gradually pulled to the side of the boat.

Although the arrow pierced its body, the big black carp still had strong vitality and kept shaking its head and tail, refusing to accept its fate.

Martin noticed Kate Upton sitting behind him, holding her chest and looking like she was in pain, so he decided to end the fight quickly.

The big bluefish struggled desperately to escape. Martin took out the pistol from his waist, and without even aiming, he pulled the trigger while opening the safety.

Bang bang bang!
He fired three shots in succession, each of which hit the big bluefish's head, and blood immediately gushed out.

The water surface soon became quiet. The big black carp floated on the water, staring at the boat with its dead eyes, as if saying that you have no martial ethics!

The unsportsmanlike Master Ma dragged the fish onto the boat, and it felt like it weighed about 30 to 40 kilograms.

Bruce had stopped the boat.

Martin asked, "How are you, Kate?"

Kate Upton was very tough: "I'm fine, I've recovered, just keep going."

Martin took a quick glance and noticed that her chest was red and her cup size was at least one size larger, so he said, "We should go back and check it out first."

Kate Upton really wanted to say, "Just check it for me," but there was Bruce behind her, so she didn't say it in the end.

She rubbed her chest, stood up, and said, "I'm fine, really, let's continue."

Seeing that she didn't look like anything was wrong, Martin reminded her, "Tell me immediately if you feel uncomfortable!"

Kate Upton said: "I will."

Bruce started the speedboat and continued his hunting trip.

As the sun was about to rise from the east to the middle of the sky, six speedboats returned to the dock one after another. As soon as Martin's boat stopped at the wooden pier, Kate Upton went ashore and went to the nearby dressing room.

David Fincher's boat came up from behind and he shouted, "Martin, how many did you get?"

Martin asked someone to come over and carry the fish, and said, "Not many, maybe a dozen or so."

David Fincher doesn't want to talk to Martin anymore.

Mene, who was a frequent shooter and a decent marksman, shouted from his boat, "I've got eight!"

Producer Danu simply stopped talking.

No one was eating these fish, so Martin said after landing: "Leave all the large herrings you have to me."

Worried that these people didn't understand, he pointed at the meter-sized black carp and said, "This is the fish that looks like this."

A lot of people from the crew came and were preparing for a picnic party on the shore.

Mene came over with a big bluefish and asked curiously, "Boss, what do you want to do with this fish? It's not tasty."

Martin said, "There might be gems in there."

He followed the club members to the burial pit that had been dug in advance, found a knife and cut the largest black carp along the large joint of the pectoral fin. He then asked Mene to bring a stainless steel spoon and pry the black carp stone off the occipital bone of the fish.

Mene looked at the dirty mass and said, "It doesn't look good."

Martin said, "Because it hasn't been processed yet."

He took out a bag and put it away, then had the club's workers dissect other herrings to look for herring stones.

Some of the herrings didn't have any. Martin collected five in total, big and small. He put them in a bag and handed it to Bruce, saying, "Let's dry them slowly in the shade where the sun doesn't shine. When we get back to Los Angeles, we'll go to Chinatown and find someone to process them."

Bruce put it away.

Martin took off his gloves and washed his hands. He saw Kate Upton coming out of the cabin locker room after changing her clothes in the distance. He said, "Remind me later that the biggest one is for Kate as compensation for her injury."

Bruce responded, "Got it."

Mene came up and said, "Boss, this thing is very rare. Can you give me one later? Celine Dion likes these weird things the most."

He followed Martin to the men's locker room: "Faced with Celine, a wealthy woman with a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars, I don't know what to give her."

Martin immediately changed his words: "Old Bull, give the biggest one to Mene."

Bruce put his arm around Mene's shoulders and said, "Tell me the truth, how many people are you dating at the same time?"

Menet waved his hand: "There are not many now, only Celine Dion, Emma Thomas and Isabelle Huppert..."

He sighed: "Sophie Marceau only spent a dozen nights with me and then ignored me."

Bruce was deeply impressed: "You are such a fucking romantic!"

Martin and his two companions changed their clothes and arrived at the picnic area, where the fishing club held a small ceremony.

The club leader announced that Martin won the fishing and hunting competition and presented him with a trophy.

After Martin received the trophy, he gave it to the injured Kate Upton: "Ladies first."

Kate Upton accepted it, took the initiative to pat her chest, and said tremblingly: "Don't worry, I'm fine."

After the ceremony, a picnic will begin.

It's also fun to have a group of people get together to eat, drink and have fun.

The club also organizes a fishing competition and ladies' swimming competition in the afternoon.

Martin was not interested in the former, but became the referee of the latter. He was then dragged into the water by a group of women and was exploited a lot in the chaos.

Towards evening, the crew returned to their base.

After returning, Martin paid for a Mississippi-style meal for all the crew members out of his own pocket.

During the meal, Gillian Flynn came to Martin and wanted to talk to him about some work.

Martin asked, "Are you anxious?"

Gillian smiled and said, "I just wrote part of the new work. I'll show it to you first."
