Chapter 377: Sea Beauty and Beauty Beauty
Whether you can figure it out or not, anyway, you have already boarded the thief ship, and it is not so easy to think about it. This is the reason that Hong Tao used to enlighten the fat boss and comfort himself.
The owner of the boat is a black uncle in his 50s, and there are 2 black children on the boat as his helpers, who are responsible for helping guests carry things and organize diving equipment.
It may be due to the lack of wind at sea, or because of the effect of the two pontoons on both sides of the hull, this boat does not look quite tattered, but it is not only not slow to drive on the sea, but also very stable, just a slight forward and backward pitch, and the swing amplitude of the left and right is very small, which is very suitable for people who do not often take the boat and are prone to seasickness.
After about 30 minutes of driving, I saw a very small island in the distance. There is only one coconut tree on the island, standing as lonely as a root antenna; There were a few low shrubs next to it, then a small patch of grass, and then a sandy beach.
Although the island is small, it is really beautiful, with a blue sea in the middle of the ocean, and suddenly such a small handful of green, surrounded by a circle of snow-white sand, it really looks like it was drawn in a picture.
As the island got closer and the water became lighter, Hong Tao stuck his head out from the side of the boat and looked down. Sure enough, the reason for the lighter color of the sea is that the depth of the sea here has become shallower, because the visibility of the sea here is very high, and Hong Tao is not sure how deep the bottom of the sea is, according to his estimate, it is about 3 or 4 meters.
"Fish, Hongtao, look here, tropical fish!" Boss Liu also stretched out his head to watch for a long time, he was about to put the camera into the water, Hong Tao estimated that after this trip back, his old man's SLR would have to be scrapped, and the seawater was extremely corrosive. As long as there are metal objects stained and not cleaned up in time, they will rust sooner or later, and it is only a matter of time.
Looking down in the direction pointed by Boss Liu, if you can see several groups of colorful small fish swimming in the water, compared with the tropical ornamental fish sold in China, these small fish are more ornamental, not only the color is extraordinarily beautiful, but the body also looks weird.
The captain anchored the boat a few hundred meters from the island, where he said the water was about 8 meters deep. The reef is also a bit flatter and more suitable for diving. Hong Tao had already changed his swimming trunks before he got on the boat, on the one hand, it was inconvenient to change on the boat, and on the other hand, the swimming trunks were relatively tight, so that it was not easy for people to see the sudden changes in their bodies with those Italian girls who were too revealing.
You can get into the water with swimming trunks and a diving mask, and you have to apply a thick layer of sunscreen. The sunlight here is really too poisonous, just after playing on the beach for a while before lunch, Hong Tao and the three of them had some slight burns, but Hong Tao and Boss Liu's skin is relatively dark because they often fish, so it is not easy to see. Only the fat boss's white and tender fat is particularly conspicuous, especially the bridge of his nose and forehead are all red, like a big flower face.
The water is really clear and the temperature is suitable. The reef below is full of marine life, small fish, starfish, sea urchins, lobsters, anemones...... Anyway, what you know and don't know is all presented in front of your eyes one by one.
Hong Tao is known as the "black stripe in the waves" in the Houhai area, and has been soaking in water since he was a child. The water is excellent, but when you get here, it's a little overwhelming. The sea is too buoyant here. It's a boon for people who can't swim, but it's a hindrance for people who are good at water.
In order to observe the beauty of the coral reef for a longer time, Hong Tao eventually had to swim downstream, and then hold on to a coral reef to immobilize his body so that he could stay in the sea for a while.
In fact, this buoyancy problem is not only bothering Hong Tao alone, but other people are also facing this problem. But soon an Italian girl discovered Hong Tao's trick, and then she began to be lazy.
Hong Tao grabbed the coral reef, and she swam down and dragged Hong Tao's ankle. It is said that there is a way to do the same, and immediately there will be a second person to pull Hong Tao's other foot, and then someone else will drag their foot.
This sea water is lively, everyone's breath-holding time is different, this large string of human meat skewers always can't last for dozens of seconds, and it begins to break off from a certain link, and then the second half begins to float. The people who floated up hurriedly grabbed around, caught who was who, pulled each other to the surface, smiled at each other, and then took a big breath, pulled and dived together.
For this game, Hong Tao and the three old men were the happiest. Because the other girls are all girls, it is not easy to maintain balance in the water, and if they pull each other again and interfere with each other, they simply can't control the balance of their bodies. You pull me, I hold you, the frequent physical contact makes these three ill-intentioned men very enjoyable, and the Italian girls don't care, one will pick up the black and thin Hong Tao and toss under the water, and the other will pick up the white fat boss like a balloon out of the water.
"Ouch, I'm so tired, my heart is about to jump out of my mouth! Give me a sip first, don't grab it! Don't rob it! After playing mixed fighting in the sea for a while, Hong Tao and a group of people were tired, and one by one they swam to the beach of the island, lying on the delicate snow-white sand like a group of dead fish, except for the mouth can move, they are not willing to move anywhere.
"Uncle Liu, fat uncle, look here, come! Take a picture...... Fat uncle, I have to keep this photo, look, why do you have 2 extra women's thighs on your body! Hong Tao was also tired, but he still had to take out the camera from the waterproof bag and take pictures of the pile of sleek flesh on the beach.
Now photography has become Hong Tao's main business, he bought a whole box of 20 pieces just for the memory card of the camera, and all kinds of high-energy batteries are not less purchased, and even specially asked the store owner to equip a large capacity small battery in the outdoor goods store in the United States, which can be connected to the camera as an external power supply.
It's not that Hong Tao plans to change careers to play photography, but that Shirakawa asked him to help. Originally, according to Bai Chuan and Hong Tao's plan, Bai Chuan's column group should send personnel to the United States to follow Hong Tao from beginning to end of their trip to Africa.
But when Hong Tao and the others signed a contract with Naison Company, the high hunting cost made Shirakawa's column team powerless, and the original production cost had to be doubled several times, which made Shirakawa not know what to do for a while. Their column group was originally newly established, and the production funds were limited, so it was not easy for the leader to nod and sign, and he came up with more than 100,000 funds, and now Hong Tao and their side have signed a hunting contract of hundreds of thousands, and they can't afford to play this thing Bai Chuan.
From Hong Tao's point of view, he is still willing to make this show, showing his face on TV is still secondary, and it is also very rewarding to be able to introduce the scenery of Africa to others as a pioneer. In the face of the problem on Bai Chuan's side, Hong Tao can also understand, after all, people are units and state-owned enterprises, and Bai Chuan is not the illegitimate son of the director, this kind of problem of spending money is a big problem, and the production cost has suddenly increased several times, and it is not easy to explain it to the leader.
However, Hong Tao gave Bai Chuan an idea, that is, he went to negotiate with the Nathan company, obtained their consent at the least cost, and let him bring a private photographer to help him record the whole process and not participate in the hunt. This problem has been allowed by Naison Company, and it has not embarrassed Hong Tao in terms of price, after all, this kind of influence has spread out, and it is beneficial to them to develop China's virgin market.
However, due to cost considerations, although the company no longer charges the photographer according to the standard of hunting customers, you have to pay for the expenses and various insurances during the trip. So in order to save money on the Shirakawa side, the photographer would have to feel the convergence of Dar es Salaam and Hong Tao at the earliest tomorrow. (To be continued......)
