Start with the Readers Chapter 722: Shareholder meeting

"After the premiere of the sample film tomorrow, we will promote it in the newspaper according to the original plan, create a trend of public opinion, and let people who like new things keep looking forward to our film.

"We can't just rely on the "Daily Observer", but also use the newspapers that Congressman Macht has invested in, and find a few well-known journalists or editorial staff to publish articles.

"After the heat is heated up, the company's business in Backlund will be on the right track... My initial idea is to make a novel based on Russell's novel, which is specially provided to nobles and upper-class people The movie I watched, this movie uses well-known 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 also want to shoot a series of low-cost humorous comedies, the main target groups are government employees, business managers, and technical workers and other middle-class and lower-middle-class people.

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

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

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

Speaking of which, just now Abner gave Hazel the Extraordinary characteristics of the "cryptographer" who wanted to kidnap Fanny, and used this to get the latter to agree to become the manager of the film and television company in Backlund.

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

"However, if a low-cost film project is developed, will the nobles and business owners dislike the grade of this new drama?" Xio asked after thinking for a while, what kind of virtue is for nobles and rich people , she knows very well.

"The poor and the rich will both buy clothes, but the latter will not think that their clothes are not good enough just because the former wears them.

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

After all, one was shot with a "mystery camera" equivalent to an extraordinary item, and the other was a purely technological product. The former is unmatched by the latter in terms of sound and light, sound effects, and playback environment.

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

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

"Actually, this hierarchical screening plan has another advantage, that is, the cost of films made for commoners can be shared among nobles and business owners.

"We can set the price of tickets for luxury theaters to £5 and £10, and free or only charge a few pennies for equipment wear and tear for small screening halls or open-air curtains for civilians.

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

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

Listening to Abner's eloquent talk, Hazel suddenly discovered that what the other party said before persuading her to become the manager of the film and television company "helps the digestion of the 'fraudster'" may be true.

Is this legally defrauding rich people of money? If so, aren't those luxury goods manufacturers using people's vanity to "fraud"?

This idea flashed in her mind, combined with her previous experience with Detective Moriarty, Hazel discovered that the methods of some legitimate businessmen are actually no different from those of crooks in essence...the only difference is the degree , but the core is..."fried"? The word invented by Emperor Roselle is really appropriate... although he himself is the best at "stirring".

Abner did not expect that some of the "usual" methods he casually mentioned in his previous life would have touched Hazel so much.

In fact, he set up a film and television company to make money. The most important thing is to play the role of "Secret Arts Instructor" and prepare for the ceremony of being promoted to "Prophet" in the future.

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

Considering that the shooting of low-budget films may have to be done in the East District, in the Factory District, in the Bridge District, recruit extra performers, and rent venues. As a rich lady, Hazel is also inconvenient to deal with such matters, so after thinking about it for a while, Abner asked Xio: "Is Caspers still imprisoned in MI9?"

Xiu froze for a moment, then remembered who Abner was asking, and said with some uncertainty: "It should still be... I had someone take care of him before, and it's only been two or three months... Well, there is a high probability not Something will happen."

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

"Let him be released, since he is in Backlund

With connections and relationships, he is a very good director of on-set affairs...I think he will agree. "

After all, Kaspers is backed by Maric and Sharon. Isn't this just a matter of "world"?

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

"Is there any new news from your home?"

Fanny forced a smile, nodded and said:

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

"The Church of the 'Eternal Blazing Sun' came forward to save Johansen Fules, and promised to renounce the responsibility of my grandfather sending people to contact the witch without permission and creating the great smog in Backlund...

"It's so ridiculous, it's obvious that he framed his grandfather, but in the end he actually made an exchange by not pursuing the crime that didn't exist at all.

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

Fanny bit her lip unconsciously when she said this, she was shocked by the shamelessness of the Fules family.

The reason why the Surrey family accepted such absurd exchange terms was because they had to. After all, when Mr. Surrey "disappeared", once the Fules family threw out the so-called "evidence", combined with their Influence, the Surrey family is absolutely indisputable, this will hit the already severely injured family again ~IndoMTL.com~ so they have to temporarily slip on their shoes.

In the final analysis, once the Fules family breaks face, the other party may be damaged, but even if the Surrey family is backed by the Church of Steam, they can't bear the consequences.

But Abner frowned upon hearing this, and said puzzledly: "The Church of Steam has also given up on the pursuit? They have lost an archbishop!"

This involves the face of the church, why can't it be forgotten?

"It is said that an archbishop of the Church of 'Eternal Blazing Sun' personally took Johansen to the Church of Steam for interrogation, and the result was that although he had an affair with that immortal witch, he only ordered her to kill my grandfather , and Tosk's assassination had nothing to do with him.

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

Fanny lowered her eyes, her tone full of resentment.

"Mechanical Heart" still took a step back... From this point of view, the influence of the Church of Steam in Intis may be much lower than that of "Eternal Blazing Sun"... Abner thought thoughtfully.

However, I remember that in the information I read just now, it was said that the potion formula of the Surrey family's "Generalist" pathway should only reach Sequence 6... Then, since Mr. Surrey has nothing to do with the Church of Steam, how did he do it? What about those promoted to "Astronomer"?

Abner thought so, so he asked.

"Grandfather happened to get the characteristics and rituals of 'astronomer' when he was studying in Lunburg, but he didn't know the specific formula...

"Well, speaking of it, my 'lawyer' trait also comes from this."
