In January 1920, the total number of European films produced reached 52, of which 8 grossed more than £100,000. It can be said that January 1920 was the economic market for films, because the overall box office had reached 2.6 million pounds, and if this number was maintained, the total box office of the film industry in 1920 was likely to exceed 30 million pounds.

Facts have once again proved that the support of the Czech Principality for the film industry is correct, for such a new industry that does not require much waste of resources and manpower, the major European consortia have attached great importance to it, the aristocracy is biased towards film investment began to pay attention to it, and the influence of the Prague Film Festival has gradually increased.

It is conceivable that the market for the film industry will expand more and more in the future, and the practice of promoting Czech culture in the Principality of the Czech Republic will also be deeply impregnated in European countries, which is the real purpose of Ernst.

As a leading figure in the European film industry, Jessica has appeared more and more in the media, and her influence has gradually increased. Although many people don't want to admit it, Jessica has begun to go international from the Czech principality, and even citizens of some countries don't know that the German Chancellor and the President of the United States know Jessica, the queen of movies.

It stands to reason that Jessica is not a star, and her popularity should not be so high. But it is still the beginning of the 20th century, and the social status of movie stars is far less than that of a rich man like Jessica, especially since she has had an affair with the Czech Grand Duke more than once, which is also the main source of her international status.

Capital is pulling each other, the movie makes citizens all over the world know Prague and the Czech Principality, and at the same time, the costumes of the stars in the movie have also successfully driven the foreign trade economy of the Czech Principality, and a large number of fashions have been sold to European and American countries, which is undoubtedly the rise of the Czech Principality's clothing industry.

For example, the benefits of movies are not only these, but theme parks bring a lot of foreign tourists to the Czech Principality, and in a certain way raise the profile of the Czech Principality and make more people aware of the Czech Principality, so that they know that the Czech Principality is a fair, just and prosperous country. There are many more goods around the movie, posters, obvious magazines, novels, toys......

According to the statistics of the Cabinet of the Czech Principality, in 1920 the finances of the Czech Principality would have at least doubled compared to 1919. It's a terrifying boost, and that's the power of cinema, or at least the lead of the film market.

Jessica is in the limelight, but the real heroine of the Czech principality, the Empress of the Russian Empire, can only lie in bed, and a few days ago she accidentally fell at a banquet. Fortunately, it had no effect on the child in the womb, otherwise wouldn't Mary have regretted her death?

Nicholas II's family was also in the Prague palace at this time, they were Maria's relatives, and they should have been by her side at this time, along with Archduchess Oga and Archduchess Tatyana. They came to the Czech principality by train from the Soviet Union, and after more than a year of peacetime, the Czech principality and the Soviet Union were no longer so tense.

Intimacy naturally does not count, after all, the Russian Empire is still the younger brother of the Czech principality, and there are irreconcilable contradictions between the two sides, but this does not prevent the two countries from making some exchanges. Not only did they take a step back militarily, but they all started to communicate economically. The USSR had no friends in Europe, and the only one willing to contact him was probably the Czech principality, so how could he not pay attention to it?

The Soviet Union was a country with great potential, and Ernst knew from the beginning that at the end of the 20th century, the million Soviet troops were a little feared by the United States. In World War II, Germany said that it lost to the United States, but in fact it was defeated by the hands of the million-dollar Soviet Army, and the battle line was too long and the soldiers were too badly depleted.

The military technology of the Czech principality has always been in the leading position in Europe, but in fact, the military technology of the Soviet Union at this time was not much worse than that of the Czech principality. Especially in terms of the army, the Czech principality can be stronger than the other side, that is, the quality and discipline of the army.

Now the army equipment of the Czech principality has reached a critical point, and such a checkpoint gives the rest of Europe the pace to catch up. Of course, the lead is still the lead, but the gap is not as big as before. Two Czech Duchy tanks are now at most a tie with three Soviet tanks. The advantage of the air force is still relatively large, after all, the Czech principality has the most investment and attention to the air force among European countries.

The air force of the Czech principalities has been separated, and both bombing and fighter aircraft are clearly classified. Last year, there was a slight friction between the air force of the Czech principality and the French air force, and the result of this incident was that the French air force never violated the territory of the Czech principality again.

"Your Majesty, some of the nobles in Prague want you to be open to your personal education, and they think that although the public schools are not bad, they are still a notch behind the traditional elite education of the aristocracy. They said that if the government can open up private schools, the noble college will bring you more talent. ”

Enst couldn't recognize the chuckle on Massena's unrelated expression, Massena was a descendant of the nobility, and his attitude towards elite education was no different from that of other aristocrats. Although it was said that this was the proposal of the Prague aristocracy, Ernst believed that Massena had a role to play in it.

Pretending to think about it, Ernst shook his head. Ernst, who had been observing Massena's expression, couldn't help but laugh when he saw his depressed appearance, and at this time, if Massena didn't know that Ernst was joking with himself, then he was not worthy of sitting in the position of Prime Minister of the Czech Duchy.

"I have always believed that private schools have their inevitability, especially elite schools, which pay more wealth and social resources to cultivate elite talents, which is undoubtedly more flexible than ordinary public schools. ”

Seeing that Massena looked desperate to convince him, Ernst stopped joking with him and said directly: "I have considered this matter, but I have not found a suitable opportunity before. Every school in the Czech Principality has its own character, but there is one thing that cannot be changed......"

"I know what to do, and I'm sure they're looking forward to the royal family."

It is not difficult for the students of the Czech Duchy to be students of the Czech Grand Duke, after all, no one will compete with Ernst in this matter. Shareholding is only a formality, and it is estimated that Ernst will not pay dividends from it, in fact, not only Ernst, but also other shareholders will not do so.

Their purpose is not to use private schools to make money, they just want to be able to show off their differences and want to give their children a better educational environment.

This is how the private school project was launched, but it will take time to locate and build the school, and it is estimated that it will be three years before the school opens. However, the goal has been reached, and I believe that the nobles will not care, more than ten years have been waiting, who cares about 3 years?

That night, Ernst told Maria about it, but he didn't expect that Maria was very interested in it, maybe it was Jessica's career that stimulated the Czech queen with a very strong personality, and she actually wanted to go to the school to supervise its birth after giving birth, which Ernst wanted to refuse but finally made a compromise.

In fact, there was another big event in January, and that was that the German government actually wanted the Dutch to expel Wilhelm II from him. It is estimated that it was not the German government that wanted to expel Wilhelm II, but Britain and France, who were already in control of Germany behind them.

Wilhelm II had considerable influence in Germany, and it is estimated that Britain and France would not be reassured if he did not leave Europe for a day. Wilhelm II is like a fly, even if he has no ability to harm, but disgusting can toss Britain and France very uncomfortable. In the face of such an invitation, the Dutch government naturally refused, after all, the Dutch royal family is still related to the Kaiser.

By February, the League of Nations had begun to do the first thing in its mandate, ruling that Spitsbergen should be returned to Sweden. This was the first time that the League of Nations showed its hideous self, and it was also a test of Britain and France for the European countries, but in fact this test had no effect.

The era of peace began to come, and some issues left over from war began to be put back on the table at this time. Prisoners of war, a large number of prisoners of war.

The Czech principalities have not cared about these things, and that is because the Russian Empire has now become the younger brother of the Czech principalities, and the release of those prisoners of war has been integrated and reorganized. The Czech principalities did not have any problems in this regard, the real problems were those of the German and Russian empires, as well as the Soviet Union.

The former Russian Empire had many prisoners of war in Germany, and now the Soviet Union held a large number of German prisoners of war, but the Russian Empire has been divided into two states, the Soviet Union and the Russian Empire. The Soviet Union wanted prisoners of war and the Russian Empire wanted it, and Germany wanted to give prisoners of war to the Russian Empire, but its own prisoners of war were in the hands of the Soviet Union.

Some tongue twisters? But the matter is very obvious and there, and now the three countries are quarreling over this matter. Germany wanted its soldiers back, but it wanted to use the power of the League of Nations to hand over Russian prisoners of war into the hands of the Russian Empire, but the Soviet Union insisted on exchanging them.

While the Czech Cabinet was dealing with these matters, Ernst listened to the complaint of the American businessman Rydberg Carnegie in the teahouse, and the content of the complaint was undoubtedly the prohibition of alcohol in the United States.

The United States is a big drinking country, but now their president has issued a ban on alcohol, which undoubtedly involves the interests of too many people. At present, the US government is busy with the finishing work of this matter, and it is estimated that it will not be in the mood to pay attention to European affairs in the short term, which is a good thing for European countries.
