Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

Chapter 495 Cherrapunji, the world's rainiest

"It's raining heavily, let's get in the car and talk," Mukesh Ambani said with a smile.

It was raining heavily at the time. If the airport had not set up a corridor-type awning in advance, the road from getting off the plane to getting on the car would have been soaked by the heavy rain.

"Okay, let's talk in the car."

Lin Yuan took Taylor Swift and Gakki with Mukesh Ambani in an extended Lincoln sedan, and then the entire motorcade drove out of the airport.

"I have prepared a welcome dinner for you at the Shillong Hotel and have also arranged your accommodation," said Mukesh Ambani.

"Thank you for your kindness, but the film shooting is urgent, and we will be heading directly to Cherrapunji soon. Let's forget about the dinner. I appreciate your kindness, but let's wait for next time." Lin Yuan replied.

Although he knew that Mukesh Ambani had good intentions, how could he possibly have dinner in Shillong and then stay here?

Lin Yuan's schedule is very tight, so he must not waste any time if he can make the most of his trip.

Mukesh Ambani said helplessly, "Brother, I know you are very pressed for time. But with the road conditions today, I'm afraid you can't go to Cherrapunji."

"What's wrong? Is the road damaged?" Lin Yuan asked.

"No, but there is a dirt road on the road to Cherrapunji. It rained so heavily that the road was washed away by mud and was difficult to walk on. It would have been very uncomfortable to be stuck in the middle of the road," explained Mukesh Ambani.

"We can't just not leave because it's raining, right? If it rains for several days in a row, will I have to waste my time in Shillong?" Lin Yuan asked.

"What I mean is, it's raining too hard today. If it's lighter tomorrow, it'll be easier to travel," Mukesh Ambani explained. "You grew up in America, so you have no idea what dirt roads in these subtropical mountains are like. Let me explain."

Lin Yuan finally understood after hearing Mukesh Ambani's explanation.

The road conditions in India's northeastern region at this time were not much different from those in China in the 1980s.

The mountain road connecting Shillong and Cherrapunji is about 51 kilometers.

Even on a sunny day with good weather conditions, this journey will take more than an hour.

The reason is that the road conditions are too poor. Only about 10 kilometers of the entire journey are cement roads, and the rest are gravel roads or even loess roads.

Once it rains, the entire road will turn into a quagmire. Vehicles driving on the road must slow down, otherwise they will easily slip and roll off the road.

If the problem could be solved by simply allowing traffic to pass slowly, it would at most be a matter of taking a little longer, but the more difficult part is the damage to the road surface.

The muddy ground after rain will be pressed into pits when heavy vehicles pass by.

With the heavy rain, these pits were filled with yellow muddy water, and it was impossible to tell how deep they were.

If a vehicle drives into one of these pits, it is very likely to get stuck in it. In addition, the mud is slippery on rainy days, and the wheels cannot find any grip at all, so they will be stuck in place.

If this situation happens, it would be very painful if you are in the middle of nowhere and it is difficult to find someone to help you.

In response to Mukesh Ambani's concerns, Lin Yuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your reminder, but I don't plan to wait in Shillong. Please help me find an SUV with strong off-road capabilities. I will drive to Cherrapunji myself. I am confident in my driving skills."

"Brother, you are not trying to be tough, are you?" asked Mukesh Ambani.

Lin Yuan said confidently: "My driving skills are not inferior to my fighting skills at all, believe me."

At this point, Mukesh Ambani didn't know what to say, so he said, "Okay, I'll arrange a car for you. Good luck."

"Then let's talk about business. You came all the way from Mumbai to Shillong. There must be something you need to tell me in person, right?" Lin Yuan asked.

"I believe Miss Adams should have told you the general situation, so I won't hide it anymore. Brother, I need your help," said Mukesh Ambani.

"Brother, let me tell you the truth. In my opinion, you are moving too fast. It is better to leave some room for everything." Lin Yuan said.

In fact, Lin Yuan was eager to agree to Mukesh Ambani's request immediately.

But he had to show reluctance and even persuade Mukesh Ambani to be more steady.

On the one hand, only by doing so can he offer a high price.

On the other hand, only after the subprime mortgage crisis breaks out can Lin Yuan distance himself from the matter:
I advised you not to be so radical at the time, but you insisted on doing so.

Doesn’t this method look familiar? It has a strong tea flavor, right?

But there is no other way. If you want to take advantage but don’t want to take responsibility, you can only make full use of the tea master’s skills.

Sure enough, after hearing Lin Yuan's excuses, Mukesh Ambani said, "Brother, time is of the essence. I have been wanting to do this for a long time. Please support me. You can set any conditions. As long as I can afford it, I will definitely agree."

Seeing the fish had taken the bait, Lin Yuan didn't immediately reel in his fishing rod. Instead, he further demonstrated his tea-making skills: "Brother, I know you have great ambitions. The financial industry is certainly very profitable when the economy is booming, but it can also be extremely dangerous if the situation takes a turn for the worse.

With your current wealth and status, why would you take such a risk?"

Although Lin Yuan was trying to persuade Mukesh Ambani, he knew that Mukesh Ambani would definitely not be able to hold back. After experiencing the huge profits of the financial industry, most people's mentality would change. The profits from his previous industrial sectors seemed so insignificant.

This is very similar to gambling. The greatest harm of gambling to an ordinary person is not only that he loses all his wealth, but also that it destroys a person's view of wealth.

When you win or lose tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars in a casino in one night, how can you still endure working a daily job and earning three to five thousand yuan a month?
You have become accustomed to the feeling of money flowing in and out of your hands like water, and you only think about making a big profit, deceiving yourself that this will allow you to retire and have a good life.

As for getting rich through down-to-earth hard work, what the hell is that!

This is what Mukesh Ambani is like at this moment. If it were just ordinary profits from the banking and financial industry, it would not make him jealous and crazy.

However, Lin Yuan's creative "asset portfolio" gameplay can be said to be killing three birds with one stone, pushing profits to the limit, which is even more exaggerated than running a money printing machine.

In their previous collaboration, Lin Yuan and Betty supported Mukesh Ambani with a total of US$30 billion. Based on this capital, they continued to leverage and roll out their asset package, and eventually the size of the asset package expanded to US$3000 billion.

The leverage ratio is as high as 100 times!
Although the difference in annualized yield is only about 1%, with a scale of 3000 billion US dollars, a 1% profit is 30 billion US dollars a year.

Under normal circumstances, this $30 billion profit needs to be shared with all shareholders and cornerstone investors.

But Lin Yuan and Mukesh Ambani signed a priority dividend agreement. In the first three years, his Long Island Investment Bank and Betty's Morgan Stanley will take 80% of the profits first.

That’s $24 billion a year, or $72 billion in profit over three years!

Compared with the two people's investment of 30 billion US dollars, it is simply a huge profit, and the money-making efficiency can be said to be at the level of a nuclear-powered printing machine.

How could Mukesh Ambani not be jealous of this and want to expand further?
In fact, Mukesh Ambani is fully aware of the risks that Lin Yuan mentioned.

But wealth and honor are achieved through risk. If you want to make huge profits in this world, you will inevitably face corresponding risks.

Otherwise, how could there be such a good thing as pie falling from the sky and eating a full meal without doing anything?

If it wasn't Lin Yuan who pointed out the risks to Mukesh Ambani, he might have considered it calmly.

But when Mukesh Ambani saw Lin Yuan's young face, the resentment and jealousy in his heart were completely ignited:

How can he become the richest man in the world at such a young age!
The last time they met, although Mukesh Ambani knew that Lin Yuan's hidden net worth was quite high, he still thought that he was better.

However, when Lin Yuan Pictures went public, Lin Yuan's net worth reached 1192 billion US dollars, which only counted his stock wealth in Lin Yuan Pictures.

This completely stung Mukesh Ambani: Isn't it because Lin Yuan is brave and dares to fight that he can have so much wealth?

I, Mukesh Ambani, also have courage!
So, he said very seriously, "I'm aware of all the risks you mentioned, and I've given them serious consideration. But I still insist that heroes are made by the times, and we must not be timid or hesitant when faced with opportunities."

Seeing Mukesh Ambani's answer, Lin Yuan finally gave in: "How much money do you need?"

"At least $50 billion is enough for me to take over two large banks. But if possible, I hope you can support me with $100 billion, so that the largest bank in India will also fall into my hands," said Mukesh Ambani.

"100 billion US dollars...it's a big risk...it's a bit difficult to handle." Lin Yuan said.

Mukesh Ambani understood the subtext: even if it is difficult, it can be done, but it will cost more.

Mukesh Ambani said: "Four years of priority dividend rights, 70% per year! I am sincere. Are you satisfied, brother?"

Lin Yuan smiled when he heard what Mukesh Ambani said.

This condition can be said to be quite cunning.

The conditions in the contract signed between Lin Yuan and him before were: three years of priority dividend rights, 80% per year.

From the table, we can see that the total priority dividends in the previous three years were 240%, and now the priority dividends in the four years are as high as 280%, which is 40% more.

In the face of such a large-scale capital operation, 5% or 10% is a huge concession of interests, not to mention giving up 40% at once.

Calculated linearly based on previous profits, this is a profit of $12 billion.

But profits cannot be viewed in this way. If Lin Yuan really thought so, he would fall into Mukesh Ambani's calculations.

Time cost is the biggest risk. In the ever-changing capital market, it is far more practical to secure profits as soon as possible and avoid risks than to be forced to play at the gambling table for another year.

What's more, Lin Yuan knew that the asset package could not be expanded indefinitely, let alone continue forever.

Because the essence of this game is passing the parcel, there are a large number of targets that can be circled in the early stage, so the profit will be quite considerable.

However, as this game progresses, customer resources will inevitably gradually dry up, and performance and profits will decline simultaneously.

The previous estimate of $3 billion in priority dividends over three years was based on an annual profit of $72 billion, but in reality it is impossible to have that much. $24 billion is already very good.

Now Mukesh Ambani wants to expand further, which will only dilute the profits of all projects within the entire bureau.

Therefore, Lin Yuan did not want to continue playing the capital gamble with Mukesh Ambani.

But Lin Yuan will not give up the idea of ​​Mukesh Ambani, because he has other things that Lin Yuan wants.

So Lin Yuan put forward his own conditions: "100 billion US dollars is no problem, but you need to change your conditions."

"What do you want?" Mukesh Ambani became a little alert.

After all, the business world is like a battlefield. When faced with huge interests, you can never be too careful.

Lin Yuan said: "This time, the funds will still not participate in the equity investment, and I don't want the priority dividend rights. I want the Ambani Group and the mining rights of Saudi Arabia's oil and gas resources."

Hearing this, Mukesh Ambani was stunned.

Lin Yuan's condition was a bit harsh, but it was within his bottom line, making him feel caught in a dilemma.

When Ambani Sr. passed away, the four pillar businesses of the Ambani Group were: oil, energy, communications and finance.

Under Lin Yuan's persuasion, Mukesh Ambani acquired the oil and finance sectors, while his younger brother took over the energy and communications sectors. (See Chapter 407 for details)
For Mukesh Ambani, although he says that he has the courage to take a gamble, in fact he does not bear much of the real risk, so he can attack or defend.

The greatest source of confidence comes from the oil sector that he controls.

As long as he holds on to the oil sector firmly, he will have a very solid foundation, and even if the financial industry collapses, he will be able to make a comeback.

According to the popular saying in later generations, the oil sector guarantees the lower limit, and the financial sector is used to impact the higher upper limit.

But now, Lin Yuan has reached out to Mukesh Ambani's oil sector.

If Lin Yuan's condition was to take away the ownership of his entire oil department in one go, then Mukesh Ambani would never agree no matter how high Lin Yuan's offer was.

But Lin Yuan was very sensible and stuck to his bottom line: the right to exploit oil and gas resources in Saudi Arabia.

The oil sector operates on a heavy asset model, with its main assets being oil and gas exploration rights, as well as refineries and sales and transportation networks in India.

India does not produce much oil and gas, so the Ambani Group's oil and gas exploration rights are mainly in Saudi Arabia and Russia.

Saudi Arabia accounts for 6% and Russia accounts for 4%.

Lin Yuan’s request was equivalent to taking away 6% of the oil sector’s mining rights in one fell swoop.

For Mukesh Ambani, although most of it was taken away, he still had 4%.

As long as domestic refineries and sales and transportation networks remain, the lost resource mining rights can be compensated sooner or later by developing new ones in the future.

After much deliberation, Mukesh Ambani finally made up his mind: "I agree to your request. Let's do as you say."

"You can discuss the specific funding needs with Betty. You can also send the contract and other things directly to her. I will sign a letter of authorization for her." Lin Yuan said.

"Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

The two men shook hands, their faces full of smiles, each thinking that they had gotten the better deal.

Mukesh Ambani has already imagined a bright future in which he would become the financial overlord of India and reap the benefits from all directions.

Lin Yuan knew that acquiring Saudi Arabia's oil and gas exploration rights, worth $100 billion, was a huge win. Over the next decade, oil and gas prices would gradually climb to historical highs and remain flat for a long time.

The most powerful and prosperous years for the Russian Empire were supported by this wave of oil and gas market.

Lin Yuan could conservatively make 2 to 3 times the profit from these resources, not to mention that these were resources related to the lifeline of the industry and had huge political value, which could bring him a lot of extra benefits.

If you don’t make good use of it, you will be wasting your painstaking planning.

The two men with ulterior motives shook hands again and began to say goodbye with a smile.

"Since you are in a hurry to go to Cherrapunji, I won't see you off. I wish you a safe journey. When you finish filming and return, I will hold a farewell banquet for you." Mukesh Ambani said enthusiastically.

"You are too polite. I have already troubled you a lot. I know you are busy too, so I won't waste your time. Let's get together again when I come back." Lin Yuan's words were also meaningless politeness.

After the two of them said goodbye, Lin Yuan took Betty and Taylor Swift out of the stretched Lincoln sedan and got into the Hummer off-road vehicle nearby.

Luxury cars like Rolls-Royce, Bentley and Maserati are of no use when traveling to Cherrapunji on muddy and bumpy mountain roads in heavy rain.

A rugged off-road vehicle like the Hummer is still more convenient. It is not only capable of passing through harsh road conditions, but can also carry more luggage.

Mukesh Ambani's staff put the luggage of Lin Yuan and the other two into the trunk, then bowed and left.

The three of them got into the Hummer. Lin Yuan naturally sat in the driver's seat, Taylor sat in the passenger seat, and GAKKI came to the back seat.

The car started and drove forward, while GAKKI-chan in the back seat took out a map she had prepared long ago from her backpack and said, "I'll guide you."

"Can you understand the map?" Lin Yuan asked with a smile, "If you point me in the wrong direction, we might have to spend the night in the mountains."

At that time, unlike later times, there were no smart navigation systems on mobile phones. When you arrived in an unfamiliar place, you could only rely on paper maps to find your way.

"Who are you looking down on? I have attended professional assistant training courses, which include professional instructors who teach us how to lead our leaders." GAKKI said dissatisfiedly.

"Then I'll listen to you. How do we go?" Lin Yuan asked.

"Go straight along this road and turn right at the second intersection." GAKKI's gentle voice came from behind Lin Yuan's ear.

I have to say that this human navigation sounds much better than the voice package of smart navigation.

Taylor Swift, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned on the car's speakers, and a funny song immediately rushed into their ears:

"Ah~ I'm playing in the mud in Northeast China~"

“Although Northeast China is not big~”

"I don't have a home in Dalian~"

"Beep beep beep~da da da~beep beep beep~da da da~"

The singing was loud and deafening.

When Taylor heard the song, she immediately burst out laughing: "Pfft, what is this?"

"This song is 'Tunak Tunak Tun' by Indian singer Darrel Mahati. It was released in 2000 and is sung in Punjabi." Lin Yuan explained seriously, "How do you feel when you hear this song?"

Indians really like this song "Tunak Tunak Tun". The last time he came to India with Betty, he heard this song many times in the streets and alleys of Delhi.

This time, Lin Yuan wanted to know whether Taylor Swift, as a professional singer, could appreciate Indian divine songs.

Taylor Swift didn't comment immediately. Instead, she listened to the entire segment before saying, "It's quite interesting and full of brainwashing magic. I think some of these elements can be incorporated into my songs."

Hearing Taylor's answer, Lin Yuan felt a pang in his heart:
I hope Taylor Swift won’t be led astray by me?
It’s really hard to imagine what it would be like if Indian elements were incorporated into Taylor Swift’s music.
"I'm writing a song called 'Shake It Off' and I also want to use repetitive melodies to brainwash the audience. You can refer to it," Taylor said.

"Shake It Off"?
That is Taylor Swift's hit song and one of her most popular singles.

But what does "Shake It Off" have to do with "Tunak Tunak Tun"?

However, when Lin Yuan thought of Taylor Swift's weird and funny looks in "Shake It Off", he seemed to feel that there was some connection, so it was not too strange.

"By the way, how is your album going? I've been so busy lately that I forgot to ask." Lin Yuan asked.

For a long time before, Taylor Swift was busy producing her third solo album "Speak Now", and Lin Yuan participated in the recording of several MVs.

The two of them also had an intimate contact during the filming of the music video. After the filming, they couldn't wait to go to a candlelight dinner and broke the last layer of window paper. (See Chapter 463 for details)
Taylor Swift replied: "It's all finished and will be officially on sale in early October, so it can be in time to compete for the Grammy Awards next year."

"You will definitely achieve better results than ever before." Lin Yuan said.

From Taylor's answer, Lin Yuan knew that as a producer, she accompanied him to Cherrapunji for filming for personal gain, but she couldn't stay on the set for too long.

Before "Speak Now" was officially released in October, as a singer, she had to return to New York to participate in various promotional activities.

By this calculation, Taylor Swift only has two to three weeks to accompany him. If he wants to complete the double kill achievement and enjoy it a few more times, he must hurry up.

Amidst the baptism of various Indian music, the vehicle has driven out of Shillong city and headed towards Cherrapunji.

Cherrapunjee means the land of oranges.

This small town, known as the "rainiest place in the world", is located more than 1300 meters above sea level. The misty valleys, foaming rivers, the beauty of the pristine jungle and the fog that lingers all year round all cast a veil of mystery over Cherrapunji.

In a sense, Cherrapunji has only one season - the monsoon.

Rainfall varies from light to moderate to heavy, but it occurs year-round. Interestingly, the rain falls primarily at night, allowing daytime activities to be conducted unaffected by the prison's weather.

Cherrapunji receives its heaviest rainfall between May and September, during which time the area becomes a vast ocean of streams.

One can listen to the intermittent sound of raindrops hitting the rooftops and enjoy the symphony of rain sounds that are unique to the northeastern states of India.

After a heavy rain, the flora here takes on soft hues and the gray sky turns into a rainbow of beautiful colors.

It’s a beautiful imagination, isn’t it?

But the reality is very bleak.

Once the vehicle leaves Shillong city, the road conditions begin to deteriorate visibly.

At the beginning there was a little cement asphalt road, then it gradually became gravel road, and in the end there was only a loess road left.

No, in the heavy rain, the loess road had already turned into a quagmire, and you couldn't see where the road was at all.

Lin Yuan drove the Hummer off-road vehicle and slowly moved forward in the mud.

The car kept going up and down along the bumpy road.

"I feel like I'm on a boat instead of a car," Taylor Swift complained.

"It's raining heavily outside and there's water everywhere. It feels more like riding a boat." GAKKI-chan in the back row also agreed.

"Then I will be your captain today. Please sit tight and hold on to your seats. I promise to take you to Cherrapunji before dinner and will not let you go hungry." Lin Yuan said.

"I kind of regret not having dinner in Shillong. Considering the climate and terrain, what do people in Cherrapunji mainly eat?" asked Taylor.

"Potatoes. Potatoes are the staple food of local residents." Lin Yuan replied.

"Can potatoes be grown in this climate?" Taylor Swift expressed her disbelief. As a European or American who grew up eating potatoes, she is familiar with the living habits of potatoes.

"Well, but if we plant it in February every year, we have to wait until the dry season in November to harvest it," said Lin Yuan.

"How pitiful! Isn't life very hard for the locals in Cherrapunji?" said Taylor Swift.

Lin Yuan showed a look of contempt: "Do you think they have nothing to eat? They eat a lot of delicious food, you may not have tasted it."

"Really? I don't believe it!" Taylor Swift said.

"Live by the mountain, eat by the mountain. Cherrapunji is full of delicious mushrooms. We will have a mushroom feast tonight. I am drooling just thinking about those delicious mushrooms." Lin Yuan said.

"Mushrooms? Mushrooms?" Taylor asked.

"Well, according to the Chinese, only wild ones are called mushrooms, and cultivated ones can only be called fungi," said Lin Yuan.

As we all know, Yunnan Province is China's mushroom kingdom, with countless delicious mushrooms.

But the number of mushrooms in Cherrapunji is no less than that in Yunnan Province.

Cherrapunji also has a subtropical climate, mountainous and hilly terrain, and is humid and rainy, which is very suitable for the growth of various wild mushrooms.

In Cherrapunji, it is so humid that mushrooms can even grow in quilts. How can the mountain not be full of delicious food?
"Mushrooms? Okay, if you want to call them mushrooms, just call them mushrooms. I love mushrooms! I want to have a mushroom feast tonight!" Taylor asked excitedly, "What kinds of mushrooms are there?"

"First, of course, is the matsutake, your favorite mushroom. Tonight we'll serve a large plate of thick-cut matsutake, fried in butter, sprinkled with just a little pepper and salt, to enjoy the most mellow matsutake aroma."

"The next best thing is naturally chanterelles. You've probably never tried them. They have a unique aroma and are particularly fresh. We eat them in hot pot, but they must be cooked for more than 20 minutes, otherwise they might spoil."

"Next is the porcini mushroom, which is also a favorite of you Westerners. It is very delicious when fried with meat."

"In addition, there are also Jianshouqing, which is yellow boletus, chicken mushroom, bamboo fungus, red mushroom, dry mushroom, deer antler mushroom, dragon claw mushroom...all kinds of delicious mushrooms, everything you can think of."

During Lin Yuan's introduction, Taylor Swift and GAKKI's eyes lit up.

"Actually, when I go to a place, I don't care much about accommodation, but I pay great attention to food. If a place has unique local delicacies, I can really stay there for many more days just for this reason," said Taylor Swift.

GAKKI-chan nodded in agreement.

Lin Yuan stopped talking because the road ahead was becoming increasingly difficult to travel.

On this road, he encountered two very troublesome situations.

The first is the long uphill climb.

On rainy days, the tires have very little grip on the muddy ground and are very easy to slip.

This is the case on flat ground, but it's a nightmare when you encounter a long uphill slope.

If the vehicle drives straight up, there is a high probability that it will slip and move backwards.

If you are unlucky, the vehicle may even roll over.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan has master-level driving skills and he has a plan to deal with this situation.

The method is to drive diagonally towards the top of the slope, taking a zigzag route.

Because the wheels and the road form an angle, the grip is increased, allowing the vehicle to slowly rush to the top of the slope.

The second troublesome situation is the big pit.

On the muddy ground on a rainy day, there was a big hole left by a previous vehicle, which was filled with mud and water, making it impossible to tell how deep it was.

Moreover, this kind of pit is not just a single pit, but often two large pits side by side.

Because two rows of wheels pass over, two mud pits will naturally form, with a high protrusion in the middle, like a hard road surface on the ridge of a field.

If a car with a lower chassis enters a mud pit, it may be scratched by the raised area in the middle of the road or become completely stuck.

Even an off-road vehicle with a higher chassis may continue to slip and be unable to climb out after falling into a mud pit.

Lin Yuan's way of dealing with this situation was to not drive the wheels into the puddle, but to move forward along a narrow raised road similar to a ridge.

If someone looked from a distance at this time, they would find that the Hummer off-road vehicle driven by Lin Yuan was like a tightrope walker, with two rows of wheels riding forward on a narrow raised road.

He drove very steadily, without any deviation, otherwise he would have immediately fallen into the mud pit.

The vehicle moved forward, and at some point, the body of the vehicle was covered with mud.

The off-road vehicle at this time should not be called a "Hummer", but more like a wild boar rolling in the mud.

The heavy rain washed away the mud on the car body, but soon more mud came up, stirred up by the wheels and covered the entire car body again.

The off-road vehicle keeps moving forward in this cycle of getting dirty, clean, and dirty again.

Finally, the off-road vehicle drove onto the hard surface again, and the appearance of the concrete road meant that Cherrapunji was in the distance.

With GAKKI's guidance, the Hummer SUV drove towards a hotel in the center of Cherrapunji.

That was the residence of the "Jungle Bully" crew. When the vehicle approached the hotel, Lin Yuan saw a tall figure from afar, standing at the door of the hotel with an umbrella.
