Chapter 148 Should we choose an older or newer airplane? (Fifth update, please subscribe and vote)
"Oh my god, that's really surprising."

"Yes, maybe we'll go to our own worlds after we die, won't we?"

"Yes, yes, Li, I have an idea after hearing your thought."

"Whatever, Lucas. I think you just think it's an idea, but what about the specifics?"

"Isn't there you? My friend. I'll come find you as soon as possible. Really, I really love this idea."

"Okay, I'm going to sleep now."

"No, you called me just to talk to me for five minutes?"

"Okay, let's talk for another five minutes."

"..."

The two ended up talking for over an hour, from the future to space, from airplanes to racing cars, and then to aliens, from ranches to gene cloning...

Li Song felt his mouth was dry and he was a little proud. He was getting a lot of ideas from the information he had gained from the impact of the Internet a hundred years later, which made Lucas think about everything.

Lucas was still eager for more, because many of the things the other party mentioned could be made into movies, such as private prisons hosting death racing games and televised gambling, during which various weapons could be obtained.

There's also the story of genetically cloned dinosaurs opening a park, and then the dinosaurs escaped...

"Genius, genius." Lucas couldn't wait to continue chatting with Li Song.

Unfortunately, I still have a lot of work to do, because I am also a boss.

The reason Li Song brought up so many ideas was mainly because Hollywood is exclusive; if two people from different countries make the same subject, the results will be completely different.

Moreover, Ami is xenophobic. No matter how excellent your movie is, if it's not made by Ami people and doesn't conform to Ami values, then it's bad and won't be accepted.

Besides, it's just an idea, there's no specific script, and even if it's the same script, different people filming it will result in completely different outcomes.

Just like The Legend of the Condor Heroes, how many parts have been made, but how many are actually remembered?
Some people even ruin classics.

On Tuesday, Li Song took He Erge and He Sige back to Guangzhou and asked Tian Jiahui to inquire with the villa renovation company if they would be willing to take on a project in Beijing. He also asked Tian Jiahui to show the design drawings to the people there.

"Tsk tsk!" While on the ship, Li Song saw in the newspaper that Golden Harvest had announced an investment of HK$30 million to film Treasure Mystery, and that the cast had been finalized, props were being prepared, and filming was expected to begin next month.

In addition, it was announced that Northern School Wonderful Magazine had invested HK$1000 million.

They also announced that a Hollywood actress has been cast as the female lead, with the specific actress to be announced later.

Furthermore, a reporter revealed that Mr. Zou received help from a prominent American director during his trip to America.

Of course, some reporters also revealed that Mr. Zou was tricked by Hollywood and deceived by an old friend, implying that Mr. Zou was lying.

Li Song didn't know if these revelations were true or false, but there was a strong suspicion that they were hype.

Another piece of news, though less noticeable, is that a reporter noted a surge in international patent applications in Hong Kong in recent months, and that it has attracted many executives from small businesses to Hong Kong.

However, this news was relegated to the sidelines and went unnoticed.

Then Li Song saw that Shaw Brothers had another accident during filming, the fifth this year. One previous accident reportedly resulted in a death and hospitalization. Li Song then realized that three months earlier, during the filming of a Three Kingdoms drama, a studio collapsed, killing an extra and injuring several other actors.

However, the specific ones were not published.

Li Song guessed that Shaw Brothers had paid him. These reports can only be found in tabloids, which will say anything, even baseless rumors, for the sake of sales.

"Although Boss Shao is stingy, he has built quite a few houses in the mainland. How about we cooperate?" Li Song thought to himself when he saw this.

Li Song knew that Boss Shao was on the wrong track. What could defeat the Ghost Blows Out the Light TV series was not martial arts or history, but the TV series that housewives were willing to watch.

Who in the family can compete with the housewife? I want a TV series that appeals to all ages.

"Mr. Li, we received the blueprints. That's great, that's great!" Ma Shengli's eyes were red; he hadn't slept all night because he needed to examine the blueprints. Although he had only looked at the packaging cover, he already knew it was a good product: black and white televisions, color televisions, remote-controlled color televisions, household refrigerators, commercial refrigerators, industrial refrigeration equipment, compressors, and motors.

Washing machines, large drum washing machines, etc.

There's also air conditioning.

These technologies will enable countless factories to produce more advanced home appliances.

Furthermore, news has come back from Hong Kong Island that the patent agency that collaborates with Li Song is applying for a large number of international patents, reportedly involving a massive number of patents.

According to sources within the patent department in Hong Kong, the number could reach tens of thousands, and the total patent application fees worldwide are said to amount to tens of millions.

The mainland is close to Hong Kong Island, so it's easy to get information if you want to. Moreover, Hong Kong government officials aren't very tight-lipped, and you can also check patents, which isn't illegal.

However, they also received some information that Li Song was being targeted by several companies affiliated with the Japanese.

"That's good, that's good." Li Song nodded. Of course, Li Song knew that there were plenty of ways to bring things back from the mainland.

Upon arriving at the BMW motorcycle factory and entering the office, before Section Chief Zhou could ask any questions, Li Song said, "After our evaluation, the fighter jets are fine. Now there's a key point: among the candidates, there are both new and old ones. The new ones will definitely be more troublesome, while the old ones are easier to deal with."

Upon hearing this, Section Chief Zhou licked his lips and asked, "What does the new one look like, and what does the old one look like?"

"The newer ones are the ones with the most recent production dates. They can take off and land. Of course, some of the electronic equipment inside may be removed, since we're worried about being tracked. The engines still have a few hundred hours of life left."

"The older ones are definitely those that have been used for a longer period of time and have some malfunctions. Some can take off, but they dare not land."

"Also, the equipment they bring is different. They can bring some new equipment. Anyway, anything can happen over there. It is said that they themselves lost the giant mushroom twice, once in Spain and once in front of their own house."

Upon hearing this, Section Chief Zhou's eyes widened. "They even managed to lose a giant mushroom?"

“We can get one F-14, one F-15 single-seat, and one F-15 two-seat training version of each,” Li Song continued.

"Of course, the weapons they carry are different, and these weapons are not cheap on the black market."

Upon hearing this, Section Chief Zhou asked, "The black market?"

"Hehe, you guys don't know, do you? Our big brother in the north has quite a bit of contact with Europe." Li Song said mysteriously.
