I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 403 The Concept of Dolphin Cove
It was getting late, and night had fallen.

The beach was breezy and very cool at night.

Men and women gathered here, and the night began to bustle.

Liu Jin changed into a pair of beach shorts, wore a black vest, and a short-sleeved shirt over it, and came to the beach with Adjani.

Most of the people gathered on this beach were ordinary tourists.

Real celebrities rarely come here.

Firstly, it's not very safe, and secondly, I'm worried about the media.

However, Liu Jin didn't care much about that.

He just didn't understand, "You, Isabelle Adjani, are a top European movie star, so why did you come with me?"
They even took off their sandals and walked barefoot on the beach, feeling exceptionally comfortable.

“I’ve heard of O’Barry; he’s been a big problem for the Marine Animals organization for years.”

He stormed the International Whaling Society several times to protest, and even led a group to storm aquariums and amusement parks, which angered many people.

His intentions were good, but his methods were...

At this point, Adjani asked curiously, "So, what do you want with him?"

"Let's make a movie."

"what?"

Liu Jin didn't continue, which only made Ajani more curious.

Liu Jin met O'Barry in a simple bar on the beach.

He looked a bit dejected as he sat at the bar drinking.

However, the clothes have been changed.

He wasn't as disheveled as he appeared when I saw him in the afternoon.

It's clear that he's taking this meeting quite seriously.

"Richard!"

Liu Jin sat down next to him, glanced at the beer in his hand, and shook his head.

"any drinks?"

Adjani thought for a moment and said to the bartender, "A Tequila Sunset."

After saying that, she glanced at Liu Jin and added, "Give him a Sunset Rollercoaster."

“No problem, Ms. Adjani.”

The bartender smiled and nodded, then glanced at Liu Jin before quickly getting to work.

"Matheus is one of the best bartenders on this beach. He's here for three months of the year, July, August, and September, and the rest of the time he flies back to Milan to run his cocktail bar. Hmm, Sunset Rollercoaster is a really interesting drink, you should try it."

Are you familiar with this place?

By this time, Matteo had finished the Tequila Sunset and placed it in front of Adjani.

“I have known Ms. Adjani for nine years, and this is the first time I have seen her invite such a handsome young Asian man for drinks.”

After he finished speaking, he looked at Isabelle Adjani with a serious expression.

"He is the best bartender, bar none."

Adjani chuckled. "Sorry, Matteo, the best bartender."

Matteo smiled with satisfaction upon hearing this.

He picked up a glass, filled it with ice, and gave the drink a refreshing taste.

Gin, vodka, white rum, and grenadine syrup were mixed in a shaker, and then ice cubes were added. The shaker was shaken rhythmically to gradually mix the liquor and allow it to cool slowly.

Then discard the ice cubes in the glass and pour in Santo orange juice, a specialty of the Parma region of Italy, filling the glass to six-tenths full to enhance the orange aroma of the wine.

Then add soda water to increase the effervescence of the drink.

Finally, slowly pour in the shaken and cooled liquor, and garnish with a lemon to add a refreshing touch to this Sunset Rollercoaster drink.

"Sunset Roller Coaster, please enjoy."

"Thank you!"

Liu Jin looked at the cocktail in front of him with a strange sense of appreciation.

The color scheme is incredibly romantic, like a setting sun slowly sinking in the afterglow of dusk.

Taking a sip, the rich fruity aroma and the perfectly balanced, slightly intoxicating fragrance of the wine intertwine, creating a double delight.

"You're late today. An hour earlier would have been the perfect time to enjoy this Sunset Rollercoaster drink."

Matteo explained with a smile.

Imagine enjoying this fine wine while immersing yourself in the romance of twilight, experiencing a unique encounter and tranquility...

Liu Jin couldn't help but nod and said, "Then I'll definitely try it again later."

"welcome any time."

At this moment, Richard finished his beer and turned to look at Liu Jin.

"What do you want to say to me?"

Have you heard of Taiji?

"where?"

"In Higashimuro District, Wakayama Prefecture, a very secluded and extremely xenophobic fishing village."

That place is the largest whaling and dolphin slaughtering ground in Taiji. Every year, tens of thousands of dolphins and whales are cruelly slaughtered or sold to aquariums around the world to be displayed as ornamental fish. From September to March each year, the entire bay of Taiji turns red with the blood of whales and dolphins.

As Liu Jin spoke, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

He lit one and then pushed it in front of O'Barry.

"The whole world knows that I hate a mundane life."

I'm not afraid of others finding out; yes, that's truly how I am.

Mr. O'Barry, when you're spouting empty rhetoric about protecting dolphins and marine life outside the International Whaling Society and other international organizations, do you know that hundreds, even thousands of marine creatures are being slaughtered?

"Is this true? Why is there no news about it internationally?"

"If you look at my resume, you'll see that I studied there and am now banned from entering."

I can assure you, this is true.

Furthermore, the reason it's not widely known is twofold. Firstly, the local government spends a huge amount of money each year lobbying various international organizations, including the International Whaling Society and some marine life conservation organizations. Secondly, Taiji is located in a secluded area and is extremely conservative and xenophobic... Someone with your appearance would attract attention as soon as they get close.

Moreover, the locals make a living by whaling and slaughtering dolphins, and they cannot allow others to disrupt their livelihood.

Mr. O'Barry, do you really want to save those sea creatures?

Richard O'Barry's expression immediately changed.

Beside her, Adjani gently nudged Liu Jin.

"Amos, is what you're saying true?"

I almost forgot, he's in Europe right now. The place with the most Our Lady of the Virgin Marys in the world, even more than America!

Emmanuel, who once spoke out for refugees, was constrained as a result and lost millions of dollars in endorsements.

Isabelle Adjani is a member of women's rights and animal protection organizations, and has also suffered imprisonment for protecting animals.

However, she was luckier than Emmanuel; animal rights organizations intervened, and in the end, she not only escaped punishment but also gained a good reputation.

Liu Jin nodded and said, "Of course, I have no reason to lie about something like this."

"That's terrifying!"

On the other hand, O'Barry said, "I don't really believe this kind of thing would happen in a civilized country."

Yes, in the eyes of many Europeans, the country of Little Life is the most civilized in Asia.

This is related to the fact that Xiao Rizi has spent a lot of money on publicity over a long period of time, and also to America's encouragement behind the scenes.

Last year, Singer Press republished the book "The Rape of Nanking".

However, many Europeans believe that the content is too exaggerated.

Some people even find it hard to believe that Xiao Rizi would do such a thing...

Some people still believe that Little Days is a member of the Allied Powers.

The export of comics, ninja culture, and Bushido culture has led to a global acceptance of the image of a simple, ordinary life.

It's not just Hollywood; many European films and television shows also enjoy using wealthy Japanese figures, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Sake, sushi, sashimi...

And what about China?

It continuously outputs cultural symbols of decay, ignorance, poverty, and backwardness.

Once upon a time, Bruce Lee was synonymous with kung fu.

But what about now?

Westerners are becoming more fond of things like karate and aikido.

I'll say it again, all domestic propaganda is garbage!!!

"Of course you can go and observe for yourself, and collect evidence."

But I must warn you in advance to be careful. They will be extremely vigilant against people like you there, and might even expel you.

So if you need to obtain evidence, I suggest you set off now.

Rent a boat and go observe the waters off Taiji first, then figure out a way to settle down; otherwise, you'll gain nothing.

"It's okay, I can call the police."

"But what if the police and those fishermen are in cahoots?"
Even their animal protection organizations and their government are in cahoots, aren't they? If you go there, you'll be walking into a trap.

Mr. Richard O'Barry, you need to understand that you are now on the blacklists of various organizations.

"How would I know..."

"I'm not interested in telling you; figure it out yourself."

Richard fell silent!

A moment later, he said to Matteo, "Give me a glass of this... what kind of flying car is this?"

Sunset Rollercoaster!

After Obama finished speaking, he turned to look at Liu Jin.

"It's on you."

"no problem!"

"So, what do you want to do?"

"I want to organize a photography team to adapt this event into a film."

You're the male lead... I've invested ten million to make this, and once filming is complete, I'll find a way to release it globally.

I believe this will be more convincing than you doing it alone.

"What if it fails?"

Liu Jin laughed out loud.

"It's only ten million, I can afford to pay it back."

Adjani, standing to the side, had a strange light in her eyes.

She was about to speak when she noticed Liu Jin's hand pressing firmly on hers.

Adjani paused, then glanced at Liu Jin.

The words that were on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back down.

"I still need to confirm this first."

"Sure... Also, do you need a photographer?"

"what?"

"I can introduce you to someone, Remy, the photographer for 'The Crucible,' who just won the Pulitzer Prize for journalism."

That guy managed to leave behind very valuable video footage despite the heavy blockade imposed by South Korea.

Besides, he's quite well-known in the private sector, which will avoid a lot of trouble. If you'd like, I'll get in touch with him for you right away.

"Remy Ochilik?"

"Is it him?!"

Richard O'Barry was smitten.

He had watched the documentary "Silenced: The Truth".

I was also deeply moved by Melissa and Remy's courage in seeking the truth despite their own lives.

"Could you let that reporter..."

"Old man, what are you thinking about?" Liu Jin couldn't help but laugh.

"Melissa is M6's top reporter now, and she's busy preparing for a new show. She doesn't have time to go on adventures with you."

"That's a bit of a shame!"

No, what are you expecting?
A typical American white man, always dreaming of hunting for women in Europe.

Unfortunately, times have changed!
If it weren't for this guy's perseverance, determination, and ability, Liu Jin wouldn't have bothered talking to him at all.

It must be admitted that a documentary like *The Cove* would have been difficult to complete without someone like O'Barry, who has such a deep emotional connection to dolphins. After all, even if the film were released, it would face fierce competition from smaller studios.

It's like the attacks they launched against Ms. Zhang Chunru!
