ARE YOU READY FOR SPACE COLONIZATION?
That might be easier said than done, but I do think you are right. I just hope we even get a chance to do that.
That means the Maldives is the place you would most want to start with, she stated.
It is closest to China and China is our main customer for our colonization program. It could make the long term marketing easier and more profound if we are that close to them, I told her.
Why would you want to market to China when they are communist, she asked perplexed by my answer?
This is more of a population solution than a political statement. They need to have an answer to that pressing problem before worrying about their political orientation. They are obviously a mixed economy in reality. It’s more important that they choose expansion through tricolonization rather than war, I said so she would get the main reason this was so important.
Is this an “Art of War” scenario, she asked totally surprising me with this observation.
It is in a way. The avoidance of war to win a political point is always the better way to expand a nation. They can do that with any political label they want.
It looks like they mostly just want control no matter what anyone calls their system, she said.
Exactly! Maybe they are right. I don’t like that, but they are a very successful people in terms of numbers. It is against my nature but they seem to be able to survive better the way they are doing things.
So you aren’t really that political, she ventured?
I only know what I prefer and can’t understand why everyone isn’t like that. I guess there are a lot of people that like to be told what to do and how to do it from on top by some kind of political leader. Just look at all the fools that vote that way. I just don’t like suffering the company of fools, as the old saying goes. But I can do business with them because I’m a believer in evolution. Some people would call that enlightenment. I prefer, common sense.
Now lets get into this movie thing that I know you are really interested in to have fun while you are working with us, I said getting into her head softly.
Is this going to be a separate story from your daily journal, she wanted to know.
Yes! But I do see parts of my journal being edited into the story line, I informed her. The thing I want you and Rod to try is adding your own spin on the story line.
Can we turn it into a love story?
Sure! We are going to have many different episodes that can be used with our travel agency.
Why would this be for a travel agency?
We specialize in home made videos as part of our product to give the vacationers some fun to do while site seeing. We’ll supply some stories and give them professional help if they want. That can be in the form of filming and editing. That depends on their budget for the trip. They can do it all themselves using our templates, if they prefer.
So what would you put out there to get attention onto your Country of Libertas, she asked wisely?
EASTERN COWBOY
An “Eastern”, I said knowing this made no sense to her.
Eastern! What is that. Chinese people with cowboy hats, she said trying to get into this thought?
Close! Try special swimming and diving equipment instead of hats and you would have it. Get young Chinese couples that want to have more than one child and have them do a fish roundup to breed bigger and better fish like the cowboys did with cattle to feed America. They could be called Fishman, not fishermen. They won’t be down there killing fish like the buffalo hunter did in the West before food was more important than hides.
Cowboys just rounded up wild cattle and brought in foreign breeds to enhance their stock and they have succeeded in feeding many hungry people with high quality beef.
So who are their enemies. There aren’t any Indians for them to fight, she pointed out.
True! But I’m sure there will be plenty of the bad guys to battle with for great action scenes.
Are these films just for the oriental market, as she asked another great question?
With a market like that, why do you need Americans as your primary viewer? The numbers speak for themselves.
She paused without a follow up question, so I took this break to tell her I would bring this up tomorrow when Mandi and Apo show up with their movie crew. She would obviously fit in and have a blast doing what she had only dreamed of doing.
That evening Sopharina came with me to an awesome nightclub on the Island. I told her about out trip and our new plans.
We are going to Hawaii, I told her.
What are we going to do there, she wanted to know?
We are checking out the Hawaii atolls for a possible purchase and protection agreement for a new city, I explained.
I would feel very comfortable living there, she quickly added obviously encouraging me into that direction.
That’s where we will start the first fish ranches.
You mean fish farms, she said correcting me.
No! I mean ranches because we are going to have new Eastern Cowboys on them to round up big fish for breeding purposes, I said to her surprise.
And who is going to star in the Eastern, she said thinking she was trapping me?
So far I only have the names of the main two characters. The male leader is Sun Tzu. He a direct descendent of the writer of the famous military book “Art of War” and Kay Utsume, an old friend of mine. She could be played by Kelly Hu. I don’t know who would be good for the male lead, I told her truthfully.
Why are you writing about an old girlfriend, she asked trying to corner me with a Jerry Springer moment?
That’s what writers do. That way I can think about her cute personality while building her character, I said knowing that would make her think about her own situation in my stories.
I don’t like where this is going, but the concept does sound timely considering what is happening in the World right now.
That’s perceptive of you. This is just me doing problem solving and trying to make it interesting at the same time. We need the big fish and the orientals are best at being this type of cowboys. We just have to get Hollywood behind the concept. They need to do something different. Everything coming down the pike from them seems like nothing but retreads, I pointed out to her.
Is there going to be a lot of kung fu fights, she asked? And I knew why. She always left the room when those are put into a film.
I can’t imagine underwater kung fu. Maybe there will be a new school of underwater fighting. That could make for an interesting scene. Although I’m not sure how to write about it effectively, I admitted.
