Mystery: Start with the Reader

v2 Chapter 722: shareholders meeting

"After the premiere of the demo film tomorrow, we will promote it in the newspapers as originally planned, create a trend of public opinion, and keep people who like new things looking forward to our film.

"It can't just rely on the Daily Observer, but also use the newspapers that Mr. Macht has invested in, and find several reputable journalists or editorialists to publish articles.

"When the popularity starts to heat up, the company's business in Backlund will be on the right track... My initial idea is to make a film based on Roselle's novel, which is specially provided for the aristocrats and upper-class people to watch. , This film uses well-known theatrical actors as much as possible, and the costumes, scenes, and props must be realistic, and don't be afraid to spend money.

"At the same time, we will also shoot a series of low-cost humor comedies, the main target groups are government employees, business managers, and middle- and low-level people of the middle class such as skilled workers.

"Most of them have spiritual needs, but their financial resources are not enough for most entertainment projects, but taking their family to watch a movie every month should be within the affordable range."

After all, the film industry in the United States in previous life history developed only after the Great Depression, when people could not afford high-end entertainment.

In the restaurant, Abner explained some of her thoughts on the company's development to Hazel and Hugh. As for Elaine, although she is one of the founders of the company, she will eventually return to Trier, Backlund's affairs It has been gradually transferred to Hazel to take over.

Speaking of which, Abner had just given Hazel the Beyonder characteristics of a "deciphering scholar" who wanted to hijack Fanny, so that the latter agreed to become the manager of the film and television company in Backlund.

Considering Macht's various connections and political influence in the upper class, Abner felt that he was not at a disadvantage.

"However, if a low-budget movie project is developed, will the aristocrats and business owners despise the level of this new theatrical form?" Xio asked after thinking for a while. She was very concerned about the virtues of aristocrats and rich people. clear.

"The poor and the rich both buy clothes, but the latter won't dislike their own clothes because the former wears them.

"The same goes for our films, the experience between the two is different."

After all, one was shot with an "occult camera" equivalent to an extraordinary item, and the other was a purely technological product. The former was not comparable to the latter in terms of sound, light, sound effects, or playback environment.

Abner wasn't even going to dub those low-budget films, just silent...except for free schools, of course.

"There is a comparison, and there is a grade..." Xio nodded thoughtfully, and understood what Abner meant.

"Actually, there is another advantage of this graded screening plan, which is that the cost of filming for the common people can be allocated to the nobles and business owners.

"We could have set the price of £5 to £10 for a luxury theatre, and free small screenings or open-air curtains for civilians or just pennies for equipment wear and tear.

"This will not only make money, but also increase influence...

"And after the influence comes up, there will naturally be companies to advertise or sponsor."

Listening to Abner's eloquent talk, Hazel suddenly realized that what the other party said when he persuaded him to become the manager of the film and television company "helps the digestion of 'fraudsters'" may be true.

Does this count as legitimately swindling money from the rich? If so, aren't those luxury goods manufacturers using people's vanity to "fraud"?

This thought flashed through his mind. Harula combined with his previous experience when he followed Moriarty's detective to find out that the methods of some legitimate businessmen are actually no different from those of liars... The only difference is the degree, but the core They are all... "frying"? This word invented by Emperor Roselle is really appropriate... Although he himself is the most "fry".

Abner didn't expect that some of the "habitual" methods he casually mentioned in his previous life would touch Hazel so much.

In fact, he established a film and television company to make money second, and the most important thing is to play the role of "secret master" and prepare for the future promotion of "prophet" ceremony.

Therefore, the influence must be there, and the film must be popularized to as many people as possible.

Considering that the filming of low-cost films would probably have to be done in the East District, in the factory district, in the bridge district, recruiting group performances, and renting venues, it is inevitable to deal with gangsters, and as an official member of MI9, Xio can’t keep watch over her, Hai Rou. As a rich lady, it is not convenient for Er to deal with such matters, so Abner asked Hugh after thinking for a moment, "Is Caspars still detained in MI9?"

Xio was stunned for a moment, then remembered who Abner was asking, and said somewhat uncertainly: "It should still be... I had someone to take care of him before, it's only been two or three months... Well, there is a high probability that nothing will happen. "

Is your "care" the original meaning? Won't the prison guards get it wrong? Abner slandered, but chose to believe in Xio, and said after deliberation:

"Let him out, because he is in Backlund

The network and connections, is a very good studio director... I think he will agree. "

After all, the backstage of Caspers is Maric and Sharon. Isn't this just a matter of the word "world"?

After talking about the company's development, Abner looked at Fanny, who was a little absent-minded, and asked with concern:

"Any news from your house?"

Fanny forced a smile, nodded and said:

"I just received a telegram from the family...

"The Church of Eternal Blazing Sun came forward to protect Johansson Fleiss, and promised to give up the responsibility of my grandfather for sending someone to contact the witch and creating the Backlund smog...

"How ridiculous, he was clearly the one who framed his grandfather, and in the end he exchanged it for not pursuing the guilt that didn't exist.

"It's even more ridiculous...my father accepted...my uncle accepted..."

When Fanny said this, she bit her lip unconsciously, and she was shocked by the shamelessness of the Friesian family.

And the reason why the Surrey family accepted such absurd quid pro quo is a last resort. After all, when Mr. Surrey "disappeared", once the Fleiss family threw out the so-called "evidence", combined with their influence, The Surrey family is absolutely speechless, which will make the family that is already seriously injured again hit hard~lightnovelpub.net~, so they have to temporarily slippers.

In the final analysis, once the face of the Fleiss family is torn apart, the other party may suffer damage, but even if the Surrey family has the support of the Steam Church, they cannot bear the consequences.

Abner frowned and said puzzled: "The Church of Steam has also given up its investigation? They have lost an archbishop!"

This involves the face of the church, how can it be forgotten?

"It is said that an archbishop of the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun personally took Johnson to the Steam Church for interrogation. The result was that although he had an affair with the immortal witch, he only instructed the other party to kill my grandfather, and asked him to kill my grandfather. Sk's assassination had nothing to do with him.

"Therefore, there is no reason for the Steam Church to embarrass him any more... After all, my grandfather is not a member of the Steam Church..."

Fanny lowered her eyes, her tone full of resentment.

"Heart of Machines" still took a step back... It seems that the influence of the Church of Steam in Intis is probably much lower than that of "Eternal Blazing Sun"... Abner thought thoughtfully.

However, I remember that the information I read just now said that the Surrey family's "Generalist" pathway potion formula should only reach Sequence 6... Since Mr. Surrey has nothing to do with the Church of Steam, how did he get promoted to "Astronomy" home"?

Abner thought so, and asked the question.

"Grandfather just happened to get the attributes and rituals of 'Astronomer' when he was studying in Lenburg, but he didn't know the exact formula...

"Well, speaking of it, that's how my 'lawyer' character comes from."
