Chapter 216: The Second Phantom

Huntington flipped through the picture books and comics, and the contradictions in his heart were still fiercely clashing, even if he was rejected by more than half of the bookstores in El Roy City, he was still unwilling to admit that his vision was wrong.

Harvey is different from Cathy at that time, each of Harvey's works has its own uniqueness, and Harvey has become a nationally renowned writer in his own right.

The story was indeed a fairy tale in Huntington's opinion, not so shocking, and he could read something different from it, as if someone in the dark had told him that this beautiful picture book was definitely not that simple.

The candles and oil lamps were about to burn out, and Huntington took advantage of the last glimmer of light in the room to appreciate the beauty of the illustrations, turning the pages to the end, and seeing the happy ending, the corners of his mouth showed a smile of relief, this happy ending and the warm picture expressed through the painting were probably his only consolation today.

Fairy tales are stories for children, Huntington, as an adult, is still an old man who has experienced many vicissitudes, but he does not feel the slightest childishness or impatience with this story, this feeling is very subtle, the story attracts him, and the family relationship between Anna and Elsa makes him feel interesting and moved.

"The story is over, how can there be a page?" Huntington grunted strangely, turned to the last page and found that it was an obviously much more elaborate illustration, the main characters of the story Anna and Elsa playing in a room, and a few lines of text were marked next to the illustration to destroy the beauty of the illustration, Huntington had no time to complain, his eyes suddenly stopped, and he read out the line word by word: "The Phantom will premiere at the El Roy City Magic Theater on May 10, and gradually release it in the Magic Theater nationwide the following month, so stay tuned." ”

Phantom! Fantasy Cinema!?

Huntington's body shook and suddenly stood up, the exhaustion and frustration accumulated in his body for a day were gone, and he only felt a rush of blood rushing to his head, and he didn't know whether his hands were shaking because of loss of strength or excitement. Not only that, but there is such a strange picture book, and it is even planned to release a phantom!? This is a generous treatment that I don't even have, but it can only be regarded as tepid, not as good as Harvey's other film.

Well, maybe it wasn't rushing from the beginning.

The moment Huntington came to this conclusion, he felt like his heart was skipping a beat.

What is a phantom, this question may not have been answered by anyone a year ago, but asking this question now would certainly be ridiculed for being too ignorant and backward.

Phantom has long become a new art in the Kingdom of Barron, highly sought after by the younger generation, since the broadcast of the phantom, Harvey opened up the photography technology to the public, which set off a wave of phantage frenzy across the country, people are happy to shoot those pictures, or real stories, or adaptations of stage plays, or simply record the picture information.

The El Roy City Phantom Cinema often shows apparitions, attracting a large number of viewers, and although no work has been surpassed so far, the fanatical pursuit of apparitions is enough to prove its worth.

The Phantom was an unprecedented success, causing more of a sensation than any work of art, and the subsequent impact was so far-reaching that it was the Phantom that brought it to the altar!

Now, Harvey has actually made a second Phantom!?

Huntington stood up and walked around the room, suppressing his restlessness, knowing that when the news spread throughout El Roy City, the picture book would not have to worry about selling, and he could guarantee that tomorrow, the news would spread throughout the social community in El Roy City.

After all, phantoms are one of the symbols of the products of the new era, and Harvey's status in the phantom world is much higher than that in the world, he is the father of phantoms, and the works he created have not been surpassed so far, so Harvey's production of a phantom is more eye-catching than the creation of one.

In the dim and dilapidated room, the old man's eyes become hot, do you want to sell these picture books and comics after the news spreads all over the city? In this way, he will definitely be able to make a lot of money, and go back to the time when he is not scalping, and the money he makes is enough for him to live a decent life.

"No, he is different from others, he is talented and capable, and his works have caused a wide and far-reaching impact without exception, if he doesn't fight once now, he will never have a chance again, and the worst result will only be when he didn't see the news just now." Huntington propped his hands on the table, staring at the picture book comic on the table and whispering to himself.

······

As Harvey had predicted, the picture book comics were only sold in a small area in the city of Elroy, and the sales volume was not small, but it was far from comparable, let alone far behind.

Harvey read Puran's document report but was satisfied, the sales volume of picture books and comics is about the same as that of general best-selling literary works, and it just meets the printing efficiency of the color printing factory, most of the equipment of the printing house is temporary production, with old machinery as a reference, it is not troublesome to make, the trouble is the deployment of pigments, and there is no experience, the printing efficiency can not be high.

Now the situation is that the printing house can sell as many picture book comics as it prints, no more, no less, and there are Norton and the national market waiting to open in the future, so there is no need to worry about sales.

Picture book cartoons have a mediocre response, but the color newspaper has won unanimous praise, through the photo printing technology to print out the color photo, attached to the text to make the report more convincing, color newspaper printing is not as complex as picture book comics, there is no high requirement for picture clarity and color accuracy, the overall printing cost is not much higher than that of ordinary newspapers.

At the same price, people of course prefer to read colored newspapers, especially with the recent promotion of photographic technology, people are very interested in the concept of photographing.

The first batch of color newspapers of the publishing house were sold out not long after they were sold out by curious people, who squatted on the side of the street, sat in a carriage or at home, discussing the content of the newspaper and the new sense of reading brought by the color, the content of the newspaper printed by the Puran Press was not very new or eye-catching, and there was no difference between the quality of the report and the general newspaper, and by virtue of the fact that it had color, it became a popular newspaper known to everyone in the city of Elroy in one day.

The Cromwell Chamber of Commerce bought the Puran Publishing House, and when it saw that the color newspaper was so popular, it did not hesitate to invest, and a large amount of money was invested in the improvement of the Puran Publishing House, which suddenly increased the number of more than 100 people from a dozen people, many of whom were also well-known personnel in the publishing industry or the media in Elroy City.

A new printing factory was planned, and a magic workshop specializing in printing technology was established.

Only then did Puran understand that money could really do whatever he wanted, and his dream came true overnight.
