Chapter 173: Bauhinia Awards

After comforting Shirley, when Harvey returned to the alchemy workshop, Diana was still playing a small game with Lily, her expression changed from interest and ease at the beginning to seriousness, her eyes stared directly at the game screen, and she didn't even notice Harvey coming back.

Harvey stood behind Diana and watched her and Lily play Tetris in PVP mode together, Diana was just an ordinary person and was a first-time player, the game level was barely good, but how could it be Lily's opponent, when the speed of the falling block increased, Diana made another mistake and caused a block to be misplaced, and the game was over.

The haze on Diana's little face was heavier, her little character who refused to admit defeat stubbornly became stubborn in the unexpected place, her eyes became more serious and sharp, and Lily, who was soaking in the small pool next to her, was trembling with fright, considering whether to let Diana win once.

Lily turned her head to Harvey's advice pitifully, and Harvey smiled and motioned for him to continue.

Another round of the game begins, and all PVP modes from then on end in Diana's fiasco.

Harvey coughed and laughed, "How's it going?" ”

Diana was taken aback, glanced at Lily next to her, put down the game controller and snorted with a complicated face, and said vaguely: "It's good, but now is not the time to play games, the study has to call someone to come and clean up, how is Shirley's condition?" ”

"I've recovered and I'm resting in the side room."

"Harvey, you really don't need to ask someone from the church to come here? The Cromwell Chamber of Commerce knows several well-connected clergy who can perform exorcisms for Shirley. Diana asked worriedly.

Harvey shook his head and took a tough attitude, "I know more about this matter, and I don't need the church to get involved." ”

Diana looked at Harvey's serious appearance with one hand on her waist and sighed softly: "Whatever you want, I'll go back and rest." ”

During the day, the construction team of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce came to renovate the study of the mansion and seal off the basement, and the matter was over.

In the next few days, Harvey continued to happily fish and be lazy, during which he attended the share handover ceremony held by the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce, and forty percent of the shares of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce were officially transferred to Harvey's name.

This is very important for the future development of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce, as long as in the name of Harvey, Harvey's current popularity in the social community can basically ensure the unimpeded flow of business and political circles.

Harvey also gave the technology of making photographic crystals to the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce as a gift, because the publication "Nature and Magic" operated by the Royal Spellcasters Association was distributed nationwide, and the crystal making industry in the entire Barron Kingdom set off a production boom, Harvey announced the principle of making photographic crystals and the basic magic array, and the workshop that can make illusion crystals can easily replicate the production process, and now "The Count of Monte Cristo" The craze caused by apparitions and Harvey's announcement of the creation of the Count of Monte Cristo Foundation have made photographic crystals a sought-after commodity.

The Count of Monte Cristo was an unprecedented success and became the first example of eating crabs, and anyone with a modicum of business acumen could see that Phantom had created an unprecedentedly huge film and television market.

The Brenda Theatre Company was one of the first to enter the market, and after the filming of The Count of Monte Cristo, Harvey gave them a high-quality photographic crystal, so that they could shoot their own illusions faster than others, and they had the experience of filming The Count of Monte Cristo, so they could get started faster.

The Brenda Theatre Company is very smart, and even after ending their cooperation with Harvey, they still choose to cooperate with Phantom Entertainment, even if Harvey is not there, the resources owned by Phantom Entertainment are an essential part of the filming. They re-filmed the plays they had performed in Phantom mode and showed them in cinemas before they began filming the first Phantom Castle of Blood, based on the classic novel of the same name.

Harvey, who knew about this, also secretly praised the Brenda Theater Troupe for acting steadily, compared with rushing to shoot original phantom works, classic novels can bring more and more stable popularity to Phantom, ensuring that there will be no disadvantage.

At this time, Phantom Film and Television Entertainment Company can naturally take advantage of the trend of the development of the times to walk in the forefront of the times, in a short period of time, only the cinema under the Phantom Film and Television Entertainment Company has the technology to play photographic crystal films, and all those who use photographic crystals to shoot "works" can only play in the cinema, Count Henrietta took advantage of this to establish a number of cinemas in Norton and the surrounding big cities in one go, and still adopted Harvey's civilian development proposal.

The Count of Henrietta tasted the sweetness, and after half a month, the civilian cinemas were still full, while the expensive high-end cinemas were vacant one after another, and the civilian cinemas brought more huge profits to the Phantom Film and Television Entertainment Company, and established a good reputation among the civilian class.

The Count of Monte Cristo has become a popular novel to a representative national novel of the Kingdom of Barron, and has begun to be urgently translated and published in different neighboring countries.

This is a very rare thing, and it is a supreme honor and affirmation in the world of fiction, in this era of lack of knowledge, there are fewer people engaged in translation work, and if a work can be translated into other countries, it means that the charm of the work can transcend national and cultural differences.

Because of the sensational effect caused by the phantom of "The Count of Monte Cristo", the royal family of the kingdom naturally needs to come out to express it.

Harvey was awarded the Bauhinia Literary Prize, which represents the highest literary contribution award of the Kingdom of Barron, and in view of Harvey's significant contributions to the field of literature and illusion, the queen personally announced that Harvey's title was promoted from baron to viscount, enjoying greater political rights, and even if he was not in politics, it was a status symbol.

The happiest person to get this news is not Harvey himself, but the reviewer Puran who has been planning to publish "The Dark Age", the Bauhinia Literary Award is the most representative and well-known literary award in the Kingdom of Barron, since the last award has not won this award for nearly ten years, Puran has long expected that "The Count of Monte Cristo" will win this award, but he did not expect the appearance of the phantom to greatly accelerate the process.

"The Count of Monte Cristo" is also a matter of this work, and the Bauhinia Literary Award directly crowns the author with a huge reputation, so that the promotional title of "The Dark Age" can be directly written: "The author of the novel "The Count of Monte Cristo", the winner of the Bauhinia Award, Mr. Harvey Adrian's new novel "The Dark Age" is officially released. ”

Compared with relying on "The Count of Monte Cristo", the propaganda effect is more convincing.
