Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 703 Charity

"So, why do you want Jack Sparrow's compass?"

Charlize asked curiously,

"Is there anything special about this compass?"

"Why do you ask?"

Charlotte smiled and said,

"Can't I just randomly choose something as the mission target for the reincarnations?"

"No need to say it!"

Charlize rolled her eyes;

"Everything you do has a specific purpose - I've been with you for so long, how can I not know this!"

"So the person next to you is the hardest to deceive!"

Charlotte shrugged to Alexis on the side, and received a look from Miss Valkyrie.

"Stop being so pretentious and tell me quickly!"

"Alright alright!"

Faced with two impatient women, Charlotte had no choice but to surrender.

"On the one hand, this compass is a core prop in the world of "Pirates of the Caribbean" that I conceived, and there will be a lot of magic in it."

"Like the previous Death Note?"

"Yes."

Charlotte nodded.

——He did not tell lies in this regard.

After all, Charlotte's "Pirates of the Caribbean" story is optimized based on the movie series of the same name in his original world.

In the original time and space, "Dead Men Tell No Tales," the fifth part of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, revealed the origin story of Captain Jack Sparrow to a certain extent——

In that story, Jack's mysterious compass is the key to sealing the undead Captain Salazar trapped in the "Devil's Triangle".

The fictional mysterious sea area in the story "Devil's Triangle" is based on the real "Bermuda Triangle".

——The Bermuda Triangle, which is where Charlotte, after previously studying the remaining information about Jack the Ripper, felt that the mysterious Lord of the Abyss was most likely to be hiding.

However, there is a problem here——

According to the results of the research, the Lord of the Abyss is likely to exist on a shipwreck island deep in the Bermuda Triangle, but the reality is that no such island exists in this world.

Of course, if you have enough magic power, you can completely hide some places in the world.

——Although Charlotte couldn't do it, he understood the theoretical method.

But I understand, how to find this place is a problem.

Therefore, Charlotte focused on Captain Jack's compass——

"If this compass can be realized in reality, I can use its characteristics to guide the destination in my heart and find the location of the Lord of the Abyss."

Charlotte explained,

"And if I want to embody this compass in reality, the best way is to ask the reincarnations to bring it to me from the world of "Pirates of the Caribbean"."

"I see!"

Charlize nodded,

"But I remember that when you were refining the Death Note, you had not yet developed the magical world of the Lord God Space. At that time, couldn't you also embody the props in the movie? Why do you have to let the reincarnations help you now? How about you take the props out of the movie world?”

"Because it's better this way! It's just like buying a car -"

Charlotte gave an example,

"Of course it's not impossible to drive a second-hand car with incomplete documents and procedures, but it doesn't feel the same as a new car with complete procedures - at least when you encounter trouble, the missing procedures are trouble."

“As for the specific realization of magical props from the movie world,

My previous method was actually to forcibly extract power from the movie world and mix it with my own mana. The effect of this extraction was not precise enough, so the effect of the produced props was not stable enough. "

"The method of obtaining corresponding props from the movie world through reincarnation is equivalent to precise cutting, and it is equivalent to signing a clear contract with the source of magic in the movie world - in this way, when I refine the corresponding props, the effect will be It’s stronger and less prone to accidents.”

"In other words, if you want to realize any magical props in the movie world in the future, you will have to go through the reincarnations first?"

Alexis also understood what Charlotte meant,

"It seems that this Lord God Space is not just a mana factory that provides us with mana!"

"That's natural!"

Charlotte nodded,

"There are many more magical uses of the Lord God Space, and I have only developed a few of them so far."

"And to develop more functions, we need more reincarnations, right?"

Alexis got right to the heart of the matter,

"How do you plan to get more reincarnations? You always draw from your fans. Even if you can affect their memory in the main god space, if there are too many people, clues will definitely be discovered, right?"

"Of course not just from my fans."

Charlotte smiled and looked to Charlize aside,

"In this regard, Sally has already provided me with a lot of new material!"

"I!?"

Charlize was stunned,

"When did I-"

"——Our charitable foundation!"

Charlotte reminded.

"ah!!!"

Charlize suddenly understood.

It turns out that after Charlize won the title of actress last year, Charlotte began to take action in the charity field with her wife.

This is actually a very normal thing for Hollywood stars.

——We cannot deny that there are indeed people who want to do some good things after becoming developed.

——This is worth encouraging after all.

At the same time, being involved in charity also has many practical benefits for Hollywood stars——

First of all, it can improve the style of celebrities.

——A big star with the same fame is free of money and loves charity. Obviously, the latter will get more social favorability.

Moreover, because of U.S. tax laws, donating money to a charity, or more specifically, setting up your own charity, is a way to avoid substantial taxes.

——Just like many bosses in China, they will basically not pay themselves much salary, and all large purchases will be deducted from the company under their name. This is essentially to avoid taxes.

After all, China's personal income tax can only monitor wages. By doing this, bosses can avoid personal taxes, and at the same time consume the company's profits through personal consumption and reduce the company's profit taxes.

——The best of both worlds.

In contrast, the U.S. tax bureau is more powerful—it even has its own independent courts and military after all—and its tax laws are more complex.

Although rich people can also avoid taxes through similar methods as Chinese bosses, it is much more difficult and the effect is not as good.

However, in order to encourage philanthropy, the U.S. government has left a gap for the wealthy.

——Rich people can avoid a large amount of taxes as long as they set up their own charitable foundations and then transfer a lot of their consumption from the foundation.

——This is also one of the main reasons why there are so many charitable foundations in the United States. Basically, every wealthy family will have a charitable foundation with the same name.

There may be many truly good people in this world, but after all, there are not that many.
