Three days later, the comic book version of Frozen was officially completed

In the study, Harvey flipped through the bound comic samples of "Frozen" and whispered to someone who didn't know whether to be happy or regretful: "This "Frozen" is more like a picture book than a comic, and more like a comic than a picture book, embarrassing." ”

The so-called picture book can be understood as a comic with less text than comics, mainly aimed at the young market, and is known as the most suitable reading material for children. Picture books on the earth originated in Europe and the United States in the second half of the 19th century, and only began to circulate in the 20th century and ushered in the golden age of picture book development.

"Frozen" has a picture book version on Earth, but the picture book version basically does not tell the whole story, when Harvey wants to take into account the plot of "Frozen", it is inevitable to use lines, and the result of more than two months of going back and forth to Digini Comic Studio has become a nondescript picture book comic.

Even without releasing it, Harvey guessed the sad fate of the "Frozen" picture book, after it was released, because of the high printing price, the poor could not afford it, and the rich disdained to use these picture books to tell stories to children, maybe one day in the future, the "Frozen" picture book will be taken out and listed in a popular science book, saying that this is the first picture book in the history of the Barron Kingdom, the first comic.

"Think of it as the promotion of the "Frozen" anime, with the first book there must be a second book, although it is unlikely to cause a sensation like the "Count of Monte Cristo" phantom, the "Frozen" comic book must be the first comic book in the kingdom."

Harvey reached down and put on his suit from the hanger, grabbed the Frozen picture book comics and headed to the publishing house run by Poran.

"Boom~Boom~"

"Click~Click~Click~"

Harvey stepped into the printing house, and his whole body seemed to be drowned in a sea of sounds, and the deafening sound of mechanical operation poured from his ears, from his nose, from his eyes, into his body, beating on Harvey's heart, and the sound was like the tide of the sea, and in addition to the loudest sound of lapping on the reef, the noisy sound of the tide rising and falling was also incessant.

The workers who work here are accustomed to doing whatever they need to do, and occasionally they look up and carefully look at the guests brought in by the boss, Puran.

Harvey couldn't stand the overwhelming sound, and Harvey was sure that even if Diana grabbed her ear and shouted, she wouldn't hear the slightest sound. Harvey silently recited the incantation, a glimmer of light exploded from the palm of his hand, and then the world full of sound suddenly fell silent, and at that moment the whole sound world collapsed, and the workers who were operating the machinery raised their heads and looked at each other in confusion, why was the machine still operating normally but could not hear the sound?

They removed the earbuds from their ears and patted them to make sure it wasn't their ears.

[Noise Reduction]

Protective system

Rank: Second Order

Purpose: Removes all noise except human voices, and the coverage and duration are controlled by the caster. ”

Harvey said with a dark face to Puran who was holding his hands over his ears next to him: "Puran, let the machine stop working first, it's too noisy to hear anything." ”

Puran hesitated: "Mr. Adrian, it would be a waste of printing time to stop the operation of the machinery now. ”

"It's okay, I'm not short of that time."

Puran nodded, and instructed one of the workers that soon all the machinery in the printing house would cease to function, and the machine would emit red-hot white steam, most of which it could be seen to be steam-driven.

Harvey then lifted the mute spell and visited the printing house with peace of mind.

As early as the release of Harvey's new work "The Dark Age", William bought Poran's publishing house in the name of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce, and the publishing house was still managed and operated by Poran. Harvey's social status is based on literary works, and it is naturally impossible for the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce to hand over the lifeblood of publishing to others, not to mention, "The Count of Monte Cristo" ended up so embarrassed in the first place because there was no way to publish.

This printing house is now the trump card of the Puran Publishing House, the printing factory that began production half a month ago, and the machinery operating here is also from the magic workshop of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce.

With all this painstaking effort, this printing house naturally has its own unique feature, that is, it uses the color printing technology developed by Harvey, where it can print colorful newspapers and periodicals.

Color publications are a big killer in the publishing industry in an era when black and white publications and newspapers were still popular!

When William learned that Harvey had developed this technology, he realized the value of color printing, and hurriedly summoned all the magic workshops to develop the corresponding printing machinery.

These mechanical printing efficiency is high, the printing quality is not bad, the only defect is that the noise is too loud, if you don't wear earplugs here for a long time, your ears will be deaf in a day or two, and it is only a matter of time before you bring earplugs.

Harvey was educated in socialism, and he was not a virgin, but he did not bother to compromise the personal safety of workers for the slightest profit. In this era, Harvey is willing to hire child labor, because it is a good thing for the families and factories of child laborers, not a question of right or wrong, the root of the problem is the sadness of the times, poor families can not support too many children, if poor children can not work to support themselves, it is likely to face the fate of starvation.

In the era of the coexistence of barbarism and civilization, civilization belongs only to the upper class, and at the bottom of society it is always necessary to follow the iron rule of the jungle. Just as the United States of America on earth sold milk and refused to give it to the poor, for whatever reason, the cruelty of the times can be seen when a large number of poor people starved to death at that time, while the capitalists preferred to pour milk into the river.

Harvey understands better than anyone that if he wants to use culture to change the world and promote the development of civilization, he needs a material foundation.

10% of Harvey's 40% of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce's shares are used for workers, including improving the working environment, enhancing safety, increasing salaries, etc., because this is Harvey's personal proposal, and it is also Harvey's own income, William naturally has no reason to object, and William will also add 5% of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce's profits.

Because of this, the reputation of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce has skyrocketed among the lower classes, with high salaries and welfare guarantees, and these two points alone are enough for countless workers to squeeze their heads and want to join.

The publications printed in the color printing factory had not yet been officially launched, and there was no need to worry about the negative impact of the shutdown without forming an assembly line, so Harvey simply gave the workers two days off of paid leave, so that the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce could work out ways to reduce the noise of machinery as soon as possible. Harvey joined the research team when he was bored, and after consulting books related to the earth, it was easily solved.

A week after the color printing factory resumed operations, everything was ready, the "Frozen" color picture book was officially sold in bookstores, and the first color newspaper was printed by Puran Press.
