Chapter 54: The Resistance
Although Zhou Rui and Fox 1 and Fox 2 have not been together for a long time, Zhou Rui can feel that Fox 1 and Fox 2 are all temperamental and loyal.
Therefore, Zhou Rui put the establishment of an intelligence organization on the agenda, and prepared to set up the 'ghost' in the previous life that made people talk about the tiger.
Purple Star Pictures now has 160 movie theaters in the six towns of southwest China, and after Zhou Rui's large amount of money is invested in Purple Star Pictures, it is completely possible to build cinemas belonging to Purple Star Pictures in all cities of the Han and Tang Empires, so that the cinema chain of Purple Star Pictures will become the largest cinema chain in the Han and Tang Empires.
And 'Ghost Shadow' can rely on the theater chain of Purple Star Pictures to lay an intelligence network covering the twenty-four feudal towns of the Han and Tang Empires.
Therefore, Zhou Rui directly asked Hu Yi to serve as the deputy general manager of Purple Star Pictures, and eight people, including Fox Second and Fox Three, will also follow Fox One into Purple Star Pictures.
In addition, Zhou Rui has authorized Fox 1 and Fox 2 to select a group of officers and soldiers in the garrison brigade to join the 'Ghost Shadow', but more intelligence personnel can only rely on Fox 1 and Fox 2 to train themselves.
Zhou Rui's biggest support for 'Ghost' is that he can provide unlimited funds.
After Xia Wenwen and Hu Yi politely exchanged a few words of greetings, Xia Wenwen began to describe his concept of running Purple Star Pictures to Zhou Rui in detail.
Zhou Rui didn't understand some of the business concepts mentioned in Xia Wenwen, but Zhou Rui knew that this Xia Wenwen was indeed a talent.
According to the expansion model set by Xia Wenwen for Purple Star Pictures, Zhou Rui only needs to invest another 5 million silver coins in Purple Star Pictures in the early stage.
In the past, in order to build a theater chain, Purple Star Pictures owed more than 40 million silver coin loans were repaid in installments with money banks around the country, and the movie ticket income of only 160 cinemas could almost wipe out the repayment of each installment.
The 5 million silver coins are only used as working capital for Purple Star Pictures.
In the end, Zhou Rui patted Xia Wenwen on the shoulder, "It's a good way to take out a loan to build a movie theater, just do it according to your ideas!"
However, the working capital of 5 million silver coins is too small, I will give you 30 million silver coins, there is no harm in having a little more money, and if necessary, I will continue to invest money in Purple Star Pictures. ”
After Xia Wenwen and Hu Yi left, Zhou Rui smiled at Chu Yingying and Zhao Yan in the private room and said, "At noon today, do you two want to eat at the Nine Star Hotel, or do you want to eat outside." ”
Zhao Yan yawned, "I didn't sleep until the middle of the night last night, I was trapped, I didn't go out, I want to make up for sleep now." ”
Chu Yingying followed and said, "Husband, let's eat at the hotel at noon, I also feel a little tired." ”
Zhou Rui smiled, "You two will have to exercise more in the future." ”
Chu Yingying and Zhao Yan rolled their eyes at Zhou Rui at the same time.
Then Chu Yingying's face said with a little hesitation: "Husband, there is one thing, I don't know whether to say it or not. ”
Zhou Rui asked in surprise, "What's the matter?" Since you've mentioned it all, let's talk about it! ”
"Husband, do you know Cheng Xianhou?"
"Cheng Xianhou? Is it the movie star who plays the villain role for a long time? ”
"Yes, that's him!
Cheng Xianhou is now staying in the Nine Star Hotel, and yesterday he suddenly came to visit me, hoping that I could help and introduce him to meet your husband. ”
"Meet me? What does he want to see me for? It's not going to make me invest in movies, is it? ”
Zhao Yan suddenly lowered her voice and said to Zhou Rui: "Husband, as far as I know, Cheng Xianhou seems to have a connection with the rebels in the Red Tiger Empire. ”
Chu Yingying nodded, "That's true, many people in the film industry know about this matter, and I heard that Cheng Xianhou was also assassinated by the intelligence department of the Red Tiger Empire." ”
Today, the territory of the six major beast countries was originally a human country, although these human countries were all wiped out by the orcs, but there are still a large number of human beings living in the territory of the six major beast countries.
According to incomplete statistics, there are at least more than 1 billion humans living in the six major beast countries, and the number of people even exceeds the sum of the orc people in the six major beast countries.
However, human beings are only third-class citizens in the six orc countries, and they have been subjected to all kinds of oppression and cruel exploitation for many years, and the six orc countries have even formulated many laws that are very unfair to humans.
For example, in the Red Tiger Empire, if a human kills a Tiger Clan, not only will the human be sentenced to death, but the human will also be executed or reduced to slavery.
And if a Tiger kills a human, for whatever reason, he only needs to pay a fine to avoid other punishments.
Such unfair laws against human beings can be said to be innumerable in the six major beast countries.
Where there is oppression, there is resistance, and for more than two hundred years since the establishment of the six beast countries, human beings have never stopped resisting, and gradually formed a scale, thus playing the banner of "resistance army".
Later, because of the discrimination and suppression of the fox people, cat people and rabbit people by the six major beast countries, some fox people, cat people and rabbit people also joined the human resistance army.
In the six major beast countries, the fox people, the cat people, and the rabbit people, because their appearance is almost indistinguishable from humans, are also classified as third-class citizens.
Only the six beast tribes that have established the six beast tribe countries, namely the lion people, the bear people, the tiger people, the wolf people, the leopard people, and the cow people, can enjoy the treatment of first-class citizens.
Several beast tribes attached to the six beast tribes, such as the ape people who are attached to the lion people, the pig people who are attached to the bear people, the sheep people who are attached to the tiger people, the dog people who are attached to the wolf people, the deer people who are attached to the leopard people, and the horse people who are attached to the cattle people, are second-class citizens in the six beast countries.
In order to win over their respective dependent beast clans, second-class citizens enjoy no worse treatment than first-class citizens in the six major beast countries.
"Which room does Cheng Xianhou live in? It doesn't hurt me to see him. Zhou Rui touched his chin and said.
Don't look at Zhou Rui's rebirth, he can talk and laugh with the orcs, in fact, Zhou Rui has an unforgettable hatred for the orcs in his heart.
Half a year before Zhou Rui's rebirth, the six major beast nations united without warning and launched a full-scale invasion of the Han and Tang Empires.
In just half a year, almost one-third of the territory of the Han and Tang Empires fell, and even Wei Jiedu, the commander of the Three Towns Jiedu, who had millions of troops and dozens of battleships with full main guns, lost most of his territory.
Due to the slaughter of humans in the occupied areas by the beast army, the common people of the Han and Tang Empires in the occupied areas were forced to take up arms to resist.
It's a pity that in the face of the beast army armed to the teeth, most of the people of the Han and Tang Empires could only resist with flesh and blood, and countless Han and Tang people fell on the battlefield.
Although Zhou Rui was disabled, in the face of the inhumane massacre, he also joined the guerrillas who resisted the orc army, but unfortunately in less than three months, he was captured in a battle and immediately ate a gun.
The feeling of being shot into the back of the head, Zhou Rui may not forget until he dies.
If Cheng Xianhou came to ask for help on behalf of the rebels in the Red Tiger Empire, Zhou Rui would not mind giving some help to the rebels in the Red Tiger Empire and adding some trouble to the Red Tiger Empire.
In a room on the seventh floor of the Nine Star Hotel, Zhou Rui met Cheng Xianhou, who was nearly fifty years old.
"Mr. Cheng, I don't know what you are looking for me?" Zhou Rui asked straight to the point.
Cheng Xianhou pondered for a moment and said, "Presumably Young Master Zhou should know that I have some connections with the rebels in the Red Tiger Empire.
On behalf of the rebels, I came to ask Young Master Zhou for funding! ”
Zhou Rui said with a solemn face: "Mr. Cheng, I have always been sympathetic to the rebels in the six major beast countries, after all, we are all human beings.
If there is any difficulty for the rebels in the Red Tiger Empire, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do my best to help! ”
Cheng Xianhou listened to Zhou Rui's words, and said with some excitement: "Young Master Zhou, I can't hide it, before you, I have already met many powerful people in Fengwu Town, but no one is willing to lend a hand to the rebels.
Thank you! Thank you! On behalf of the six columns of the Resistance, thank you! ”
