"Investing in Movies"

Led by the maid, Roxanne walked towards the guest room. Looking away from the backs of the two, Shi Xiaolei turned his head to look at Pepper: "To be honest, I really didn't expect you to do something like this suddenly. Pepper, you are going to do it for real, and develop it for the Stark Group. Is it a new business segment?"

In the past few years, to be precise, since the reign of Tony Stark's father Howard Stark, Stark Industries has begun to invest in film and television dramas.

However, in the past, film and television investment was either to hook up with female stars, or to raise an argument with others. Regardless of the funds injected into the filming, the Stark Group has not set up a serious branch in the film and television industry, including the production company in the name of a branch, which is actually a small one. It's just a small workshop with not much production.

and now

Although it has a meaning of covering up the facts, the funds allocated from Pepper have reached as much as one billion.

Thinking of this, Shi Xiaolei smiled again, and his eyes became a little more determined: "If you just want to help her find a reason and explain her disappearance this week, you shouldn't need to invest so much, right?"

"Hmm." Pepper nodded with a smile, and took two sips of the juice: "With her position, the amount involved in this business is about tens of millions. You are right, I really want to open up a new department and make some achievements in film and television production."

"The reason? It's not just for making money." Shi Xiaolei asked curiously.

"If I want to make money, I'm too lazy to do these fancy things." Pepper replied: "The results obtained through the study of alien technology alone are enough for us to develop many new products, and there is an endless stream of new products." I have earned countless dollars. Whether it is the speed of capital return or the ratio of investment return, making movies is not on the table.”

"If you guess correctly, your purpose is to guide public opinion?" Coulson made a guess.

"Huh?" While Pepper gave a positive response with a smile, Shi Xiaolei showed a surprised look.

"Since Tony became Iron Man, the world has become more and more weird." Coulson sighed: "In the past so many years, although there have been various extraordinary events, but compare this kind of thing To be honest, if I was in the past, I would never have imagined the changes in the past few years."

"Science and technology products beyond the times, mutants born due to failed experiments, gods who originally existed only in myths and legends, aliens from the depths of the universe, hehe, there are even some who look like ordinary humans, but Essentially, Inhumans created by aliens."

"Extraordinary elements that were rare to see are no longer rare. Although ordinary people's lives are still the same as before and have not been affected much, as time goes by, these changes accumulate more and more. I think one day There will be a qualitative change.”

"Not everyone can accept and adapt for granted. To be honest, if I hadn't been in this line of work and happened to be familiar with you guys, I would have been lucky to have seen a wider universe with you." Looking at Shi Xiaolei, Coulson revealed He gave a complicated smile: "Even if I am, I may not be able to figure it out and accept these changes caused by extraordinary elements."

"." After a moment of silence, Shi Xiaolei looked at Pepper: "So, you plan to make a few movies first, and use the fictional works as samples for practice, so that people can get used to it in advance?"

"Yes." Pepper laughed, and then continued: "But this is only one aspect."

"Any other reason?"

"In addition, I want to relieve Tony's psychological pressure." We are all friends, so there is no need to hide it, Pepper replied honestly: "You know Tony's character. Consciously think that I need to take part of the responsibility, and then involuntarily put pressure on myself."

"Although I have persuaded him more than once, he still can't give up that sense of responsibility. He still stubbornly believes that he didn't notice it and didn't eliminate the hidden dangers in advance, which led to the incident. Including the follow-up after the matter is resolved, He also often blames himself for what people say."

"I can't persuade him not to think that way, and I don't want him to fall into self-blame because of those people's criticisms, and then overwhelm himself." Speaking of this, Pepper sighed again: "As a last resort, I just We can use another method to minimize those criticisms and let more people understand his difficulties as a superhero."

"Then you thought of making a movie?" Hearing this ~lightnovelpub.net~ Shi Xiaolei finally figured it out: "Design a similar plot and put it on the screen. After watching the movie, people will unconsciously start a discussion"

"You can slightly modify the details in the plot, and you can also guide and control public opinion." Pepper said with a smile: "One or two is not enough, then five or ten. Using movies and TV dramas as the medium, subtle To guide and nurture people. Over time, their attitudes will naturally change. Then, when something really happens, the criticism that should not have occurred may become a little less.”

Counting from the time when the art form of film was born, it didn't take many years for Americans to discover its wonderful use on another level.

Using movies as a propaganda medium to create a positive image of oneself and spread ideology to the outside world As early as World War II, Americans had already grasped the trick and started doing this kind of thing quietly.

After so many years, the Americans have already practiced this trick to the point of proficiency.

Pepper can think of this routine, which is quite in line with her identity. After all, she is an American, and she lives in the upper class, so she has long been used to analyzing and looking at various things with the thinking of a capitalist.

And as a Chinese person at heart

"Well, as a friend, I only have one request. In the film and television dramas produced by this branch company, there must be no scenes that discredit Hua Guo." Looking at Pepper, Shi Xiaolei said very seriously: "The Hollywood side I believe you don’t need me to tell you what kind of virtue the screenwriter and producer are. Pepper, I hope you can explain this matter and let them take it seriously.”

"Of course." Pepper nodded without hesitation: "Tony and I like Huaguo very much. Even if you don't tell me, I will tell you to continue."
