Chapter 325
Xavier's answer far exceeded Kamisato Ayato's expectations. After all, he was not very familiar with Xavier.
This trip to Fontaine was mainly for the benefit of Inazuma, and then it was invited by his sister's friend.
However, Xavier's answer was a good way to divert the contradiction and attribute everything to himself.
Kamisato Ayato admired Xavier's approach very much.
This gentleman has a high emotional intelligence and is also good at chatting. If he can devote himself to politics, he will definitely achieve considerable success.
So, let's focus on Alecino. Doesn't she know how embarrassed Kamisato Ayato and others will be by her words? Doesn't she know that such words will make the other party hate her and reject her?
Alecino certainly knows, how could she not know?
However, Alecino is not deliberately looking for trouble. She is using her own method to make Funina integrate into this group of people.
Alechino could see that there was a very serious gap between these people and Fernina. They regarded Fernina as a high god, but Fernina wanted to get along with them normally, like a friend.
And in order for two groups of people with such different status to get along smoothly, they naturally needed a big villain that everyone hated.
Just like in the adventure story, the brave man from the small mountain village and his companions from the city went through many difficulties together to rescue the princess, united as one to defeat the last guarding dragon and rescue the princess.
The brave man from the small mountain village gained new friends and changed his fate. The companions in the city also became rich because of making friends with the brave man. The princess married the brave man in order to win over a powerful fighting force.
The story changed from a fairy tale to reality, because reality is more magical than a fairy tale.
However, Alechino did not need this clichéd plot of the princess marrying the brave man.
Because the dragon she transformed into will firmly guard the princess and win her heart, and then defeat the hero in the last level, so that the dragon and the princess can be together.
"Haha... Mr. Xavier is really good at praising people, but this also shows that Lady Funina is indeed a household name in Fontaine and a big star that everyone likes."
Alechino chuckled and raised his eyebrows and said.
"Haha... I'm speaking from the heart, Ms. Peruvian please don't make fun of me... Oh, right. We've been standing here for a long time, why don't we move to the Debo Hotel and chat while eating. I have reserved a seat."
Xavier smiled awkwardly and said.
"Well, do Lady Funina and I have a share?"
Alechino fully played the role of a hated character.
"Of course, of course. It's my honor that Lady Funina can come. I will ask the boss to serve more good dishes and desserts."
Xavier nodded, and it seemed that he didn't dislike Alechino very much.
Perhaps in his eyes, it was normal for Alecino, as a producer and investor of Yingying, to say something unpleasant. After all, didn't his investor Mr. Morris withdraw his investment temporarily and run away?
Compared with Morris's behavior, Alecino's words were not really a heinous crime in Xavier's eyes.
"Hey, do I have to go too?"
Funina was stunned for a moment. Didn't they come to comfort Xavier and cheer him up? How did it become a free meal!
"Sharing fun with the people, Lady Funina shouldn't refuse, right?"
Alecino smiled and left Funina, she winked at her.
"Oh, since my friend from Zhidong said so, of course I won't refuse!"
Funina nodded and quickly agreed.
"Then Mr. Xavier will lead the way."
Ayato Kamisato smiled and said politely.
"Okay, then please follow me."
Xavier nodded.
Afterwards, everyone followed Xavier to the Debo Hotel, and in the process, everyone inevitably passed through the prosperous city center of Fontaine.
Xiao Gong looked at these high-rise buildings that were completely different from Inazuma's buildings, and couldn't help but stop and watch.
She only heard a sigh.
"Wow! The buildings in Fontaine are so tall and big!"
"And the fountain mentioned by Miss Abel... It looks very gorgeous and exquisite!"
Kamiri Ayaka added.
"Hey, how does the big ball in the middle turn? Could it be... This is the legendary clockwork mechanism?"
Xiao Gong asked excitedly, pointing to the ball in the center of the fountain that was emitting a light blue light.
"Yes, this is Fontaine's masterpiece, a clockwork mechanism that uses pollution-free law compensation mixed energy to operate!"
Funina said proudly.
Showing Fontaine's magnificent technological strength to travelers from other countries, thisBut it's what she, the water god, should do.
Alechino: Didn't you resign?
Funina: Are you teaching me how to do things? Ah, are you teaching me how to do things?
Alechino (laughing): Three fingers tonight.
Let's get back to the point. The novel clockwork mechanism is just a small episode. Passing through the most prosperous center of Fontaine, Xiao Gong was surprised by more than just the clockwork mechanism along the way.
At this time, let's turn our attention to the Debo Hotel.
At the seat reserved by Xavier, after dinner.
"Oh! Is this the delicacy of Fontaine? The taste is indeed different from that of Inazuma... Well, how should I put it? The method is complicated, and the taste is more layered!" Xiao Gong praised.
"Hahaha... When I first went to Inazuma, I felt that the taste there was a bit too light, and it took some time to adapt."
"Sure enough, people in Fontaine still have to eat flavorful food."
Xavier smiled and said.
"Sorry to interrupt you, Mr. Xavier. Please let me get back to the purpose of this trip. How far has your Yingying been prepared?"
Kamisato Ayato interrupted with a hint of apology.
"Well. The team members have basically been found, including the lighting engineer, prop master, costume designer... and the copyright of the script has also been purchased from the novel author."
Xavier nodded.
"Oh! It's called "Two Gunslingers", right? I read the script sent by Mr. Xavier on the way here, and it feels like a very good story!"
Xiao Gong said happily.
"Uh... Originally, I was going to start filming Yingying immediately after Mr. Kamisato and Ms. Ayahua arrived at Fontaine, but... now I have encountered a very serious problem."
Xavier paused and spoke with a somewhat embarrassed look.
"My investor, Mr. Morris...he came to me this morning and told me that he was in a financial crisis and could not pay the funds agreed in the contract..."
"This also caused serious financial problems for my team. I could not pay the salaries of several leading actors and the expenses required for subsequent filming..."
