Chapter 1065: Intellectual Retardation
Dürin's plan to use film to promote tourism in Ambiluo was nothing new to the mayors, and the role of public opinion and propaganda was well known to them, but the only problem now was the lack of a complete plan, and the money to implement it.
"I'll introduce you to a generous friend......," Durin tapped his hand on the conference table, and a few seconds later, a well-dressed Henry pushed the door open.
This guy's mental outlook is very good, since he divorced his original wife, the whole person seems to be alive, and there are no plans to get married in the near future, the little star has become a big star, she wants to marry Henry, but Henry seems to have a fear of marriage.
Henry's first marriage was to John George's only daughter, a commercial marriage in which two men and women who had never met several times became husband and wife because of the needs of the family.
Such a marriage has nothing to do with rotten love, so the silence is terrible, and even the act of reproduction is more like a dull, passionless routine.
On the contrary, it is necessary to make a very good understanding of each other and a very loving appearance in front of others.
After such a marriage, Henry was already a little afraid of marriage, coupled with the fact that he and Durin were well-known good friends, and his status in the family was steadily rising, the power to marry or not to marry was completely in his own hands.
The only thing that makes people feel interesting is the star girl, when the relationship between the two was at its best, Henry also proposed marriage on impulse, and felt that this interesting girl was the most desirable partner in his future life.
But the girl refused, a smart girl who knows how to maintain her worth, reserved refusal, but not blunt, just on the grounds that she is not ready now, hoping that she can think about it again after a while.
Henry was very disappointed, but he also calmed down, it is not impossible to marry a female star, but he feels that he is still young, and there is no need to lose his life because of a momentary impulse, and now it makes the star girl a little anxious.
The two had an argument before, and then Henry called Durin to say something from his heart, mainly complaining.
It just so happened that Durin seized the opportunity to let him come to Ambiluo.
So Henry came to Ovisto in a daze and stood here.
"I'm sure you know his name and identity ......even if I don't introduce him," Durin smiled and sat Henry next to him, "Henry, the second heir to the Knight family. ”
The mayors nodded their heads, and it was a miracle for many that the Knight family had a very stupid but very lucky child who had become a joke that was not a joke, and that not everyone was able to get Doolin's friendship.
"My next idea was to create a 'Westworld' series of films centered on the state of Ambiluo, one for each city, and these films would be financed by Mr. Henry, and at the same time, Mr. Henry would also invest in a certain amount of tourism resources. Dührin looked at Henry, who was very clever enough to know what he had to say.
What Durin had said to him last night, he had had his secretary write down and write a short speech and memorize it, and he swore in his mother's name that he had never taken it so seriously.
"Thank you, Your Excellency, Governor, for giving me such an opportunity, and I am very willing to help Ambiluo contribute to its external outreach......"
Durin looked at Henry, to be honest, this idiot has a good skin, he doesn't have that kind of heroic handsomeness, and he has more of a temperament like "I'm not only rich but also stupid" like this, exuding bursts of golden light.
Coupled with his identity background and his own social circle, he is the truest portrayal of the upper class people of the empire.
In addition to the designated starring and director, a series of things including supporting roles and scripts are handed over to the six major companies to be responsible, thus giving birth to the most popular "packaging business" at present, and it is also the most suitable for rich people who have money and nowhere to spend.
The movie released in the second half of last year did well at the box office, and the film became the first movie in history to be released simultaneously on TV on demand channels in addition to theaters, and the box office was very impressive, and Henry made a lot of money.
This made him pay attention to the film and television industry, and he has become a hot gold owner in the film and television industry.
So even if Durin doesn't have this plan, Henry will continue to try to invest in the film and television industry, he always has to spend money anyway, why not let him spend it on his own affairs?
It's a good idea, for Doolin and for Henry.
In Henry's narration, he very intuitively describes some of his ideal Westworld, which is no longer a simple western, but a series of Westworld movies, interpreting a timeline of western legends under the same worldview.
In addition, eight "heroes" and a series of villains have been created in eight cities, and perhaps this will be called the first series in the history of imperial cinema to explicitly mention the concept of "heroes".
There are funders who are willing to invest, including the follow-up development of tourism resources, which makes the eight mayors smile to varying degrees.
For mature politicians, spending other people's money to put gold on their faces is probably what they do best.
In such a friendly atmosphere, in the presence of Dürin, eight cities signed a series of contracts with Henry, laying the crucial foundation for the development of tourism in the state of Ambiluo.
After the meeting, Dührin and Henry went to Doolin's governor's office, where Henry was silent, pinched, and intrigued by the antlers and bear head specimens hanging on the walls of Doolin's office.
"How much does this stuff cost? Get me a few too, it's going to be that big." He sat down and made a small request, so that Durin had always felt that the equation that Henry was equal to retardation was not nonsense.
A capitalist who told him in front of a governor to get two taxidermied prey as the one on the wall of the governor's office can only be said to be tolerant of the empire.
"It's good if you're happy......", Durin shook his head, "You can contact Nasha when you go back, this time the TV station will also fund cooperation, she has a few good young actors over there, which is very suitable for this shooting plan." ”
Nasha had already talked to Doolin about this, of course, the way to talk was not about Doolin's plan this time, but whether the TV station would be able to make its own movie.
Nasha's cinema chain and the TV station's on-demand channel occupy almost the majority of the channels that directly face the audience, and if the TV station can shoot and distribute its own release, the profit will be much more than co-production.
Moreover, there have been many outstanding students in the acting school over the years, and it is impossible to let them shoot TV dramas for the middle and upper classes on TV all the time, but they should also be given the opportunity to shoot movies for the whole society.
It just so happened that with the help of this opportunity to push out a few young people, it was also a convenient one.
"No problem, I'm only responsible for paying for it, and you'll take care of the rest. Henry agreed very happily, which is also the reason why Durin is willing to be friends with him, it is too easy to use.
After a slight pause, Henry asked with some hesitation, "I have an idea that I don't know if it's right, maybe you can give me some advice." ”
Durin nodded slightly for him to continue, and then he continued, "I want to hold a worldwide film selection committee......
At present, the various awards of the empire are actually petty, the biggest one is the "Dazzling Star Empire Starlight Award", this award is known as the most authoritative filmmaker award in the empire, in fact, the organizers are the six major companies, and the Imperial Art Research Institute is the co-organizer, so it gives people a very formal and authoritative concept.
In fact, the Imperial Academy of Art does not participate in the selection process at all, and every time the six major companies hold this selection event, they will donate 600,000 yuan to the Imperial Academy of Art for the maintenance and maintenance of the artworks.
This time Henry and his girlfriend quarreled, also because of this award, his girlfriend unsurprisingly lost to Kinsale in four awards, she felt that the main reason for this result was that Henry did not make a strong effort in this area.
He can use his connections to influence the outcome of the selection, as well as say hello to his good friend Doolin, and leave her with a more or less consolation prize.
As a result, she worked hard for a year, constantly attended various social activities, and there was no last hair, and she ran with her throughout the whole process, which made her mentality a little explosive.
Any man who is told by a woman that it is useless will definitely get angry, but he can't get angry with Durin, he doesn't dare.
Don't dare to get angry with Kinsale, that guy is Doolin's sister, Doolin will kill him.
So he simply started a new one, made a selection activity by himself, and won whoever he wanted to win when the time came, and there was no more trouble.
"Absolutely!", Durin gave Henry an answer almost without thinking, "not only can you try to do it, but you can put more thought and money into it, it will be good for you and your father and brother, and the benefits after success will be greater than you think." ”
If the Federation once wanted to turn the federal shield into the world's currency was an economic aggression against the whole world, then if you think about it on the other hand, exporting the culture of the empire to the whole world is also an invasion, an invasion of culture, and an invasion of values.
This form of aggression does not lead to any actual serious military collisions, and it is very peaceful and very effective.
The recognition of culture and values is actually a very terrible thing, but the vast majority of people still don't understand it.
Durin, who aspires to be the prime minister of the empire, will definitely encourage Henry to do this, which is only good for the empire and for him, and there is no harm!
