"You said it well, Mr. Solomon. Well, even if I admit that your theory is good, it can't hide the vulgarity and pompousness of the current Shadow anime. Seeing the applause around him, George couldn't help but be a little angry.

George continued to sneer: "Let's count what are the Shadow animations that Solomon has filmed now? Snow White, Alexander and the Forty Thieves, superficial! And those films, they actually sing the praises of orcs, this is a betrayal of the human race!"

And all the people looked at Solomon and saw what they would answer.

Agatha couldn't help but tense slightly, and her little face pressed against Solomon's shoulder.

"No, no, Mr. George, I admit that Snow White and Alexander and the Forty Thieves did not want to tell any profound truths, but it is definitely not superficial, at least in it justice is served, and evil is duly punished. Solomon said unhurriedly, "I don't know what you think of drama or shadow animation, should it be limited to a few people here, or do you want more people to see it?"

"More people, of course. There are members of the drama club.

"So, we have to understand that not everyone is as knowledgeable and far-sighted as a magician. For ordinary citizens and most people, whether they watch dramas or shadow animations, they must first let them watch it, that is, there must be a story that can attract them, and in the process of the story, release the truth inside, so that they can accept it unconsciously. ”

"Yes, so the previous religious dramas became more and more unpopular, because the story was too old-fashioned, and every time evil came, usually orcs, and then the Terrans got the help of the heavenly realm to defeat them. A female mage club member lamented, "This kind of drama has reached a dead end, and people are becoming less and less interested in watching it." George, I don't understand, don't you think that drama must be reformed for this reason, and agree that the direction of change is to be closer to life and more people to accept the goal, why can Shadow Animation do this, but you can't accept it?"

"I—" George blushed.

"As for the fact that you said that you have made a film that praises the orcs, you mean to talk about the Lion King and Hanuman, I don't deny that this glorifies the orcs in a certain way. ”

George was immediately refreshed, but Solomon continued, "But I think a new era has arrived, and the large-scale war between orcs and terrans has long since stopped, and only local conflicts remain. However, everyone should know that although we have actually stopped from the state of fierce war, we are still in a stage of "cold war", both orcs and us are still on guard against each other, we need to gather heavy troops on the border, and we merchants and civilians still cannot come and go freely. I hope that we can find an opportunity between the orcs and us so that we can not only stop the war, but also end this "cold war", and even find common interests to unite. ”

"Shadow Animation filmed heroes about orcs, just trying to use guò as a bridge to let everyone know more and let go of the old hatred. We were once hostile to the orcs, but it is not impossible for us to be companions in the face of a larger enemy.

"How is it possible to sit at a table with those brute guys. Someone muttered.

Despite some skepticism, the magicians present did not fully refute Solomon's words.

Because Hanuman was stolen by Solomon and filmed as an orc Munk hero, a story of His Royal Highness the Terran friend King, who regained his snatched wife from the evil Purgatory Demon King.

In the film, the Infernal Demon King becomes a public enemy, while the Terran and Orc heroes are partners and friends.

Hanuman is in San Quentin, and there is a lot of controversy among the nations, except that people are temporarily uncomfortable with the fact that they will become friends with the orcs and Terrans depicted in the film, but they are not disgusted by the two working together to deal with the Purgatory Demon King.

Although the criticism is loud, the realism in it is very strong, including the Munk heroes are played by real Munk people, so people criticize while watching it.

Solomon's words above are righteous and awe-inspiring, but they are all nonsense.

When he made films such as Hanuman and The Lion King, of course, he was not to be a peacemaker, preparing to be a saint to eliminate the contradictions between orcs and humans.

It really needed the support of the orcs for the Free City at that time, and even his personal connections among the orcs, which he could even use now.

Oh, and by the way, make money and get the wealth back from the orcs.

At that time, the Mithril coinage was flowing to the orcs, and he had to find a way to let the orcs consume it again, so that the coinage could be returned to the Free City from the orcs, otherwise the Mithril standard would collapse in the Free City in a short time, because if it was a simple outflow, even with the support of the Mithril Mine, it would be very difficult.

So he was completely selfish at the time, not as righteous as he just said.

But this kind of compassionate statement has touched the magicians of the drama club somewhat, how much can play art is a little emotional in their hearts, plus they are magicians, and there are mostly female magicians, the characteristic is that there are both magicians who like to think, but they also have artistic sensibility and are easy to be moved.

Solomon's theoretical sell-out of universal values that everyone should be peaceful and deal with greater evils together made this group of magicians, although not yet fully acceptable, it seems that they cannot fully refute it for a while.

Solomon's theory would have hit a wall if it had been promoted by a magician who had put it in the Elven Magic Chess.

Because the elven magic chess simulates war, and he will like politics and war, it is not so easy to be confused by his theory, and whether he unites with orcs or not will only be based on interests and mutual use.

Solomon was not ashamed of being a "traitor" at all, because he was a traverser.

All he did was to think about his own interests first, and since the situation at that time was that he needed to establish a good relationship with the orcs, of course he would make some films to please the orcs.

As for building a bridge with the orcs, it is also the building of the city of freedom and the orcs.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you may have objections to my idea and don't agree with it, but why don't you refute me by going through the drama or filming the Shadow animation through Guò. Hanuman is just a story I shot based on a vision of the relationship between humans and orcs, so why don't you shoot a story with a different idea?" said Solomon.

"Yes, George, if you don't agree with Solomon's statement that there is a possibility of reconciliation between the Terrans and the Orcs, and that hostility needs to continue, then you can continue to play religious dramas. Luna laughed.

George clenched his fists, and he didn't know how to refute.

People were already disgusted with religious dramas, including George himself, and even if he disagreed with Solomon's words, it was too difficult to ask him to continue rehearsing old and rotten religious dramas to refute Solomon's novel shadow animation.

Of course, if you make a magic shadow animation, even if the story in it is an old-fashioned religious drama plot, it may be better, at least it can occupy the commanding heights morally.

Although the contradiction between the human race and the orcs is not as deep as before, the mainstream thinking is at most to keep a distance from the once hostile races, and the well water does not interfere with the river water, which is far from reaching the point where cooperation can be achieved.

But in this way, isn't that a surrender to the Shadow Animation? Just now he was retorting again and again, saying that the Shadow Animation is vulgar and superficial.

George himself is now caught in a paradox where he wants to defeat the Shadow Animation, but he may only be able to do so by shooting the Shadow Animation.

"The drama won't be ruined by the Shadow Animation, look, Luna, I'll win our bet. "Don't forget, although the Hayden Theatre shows the Shadow animation, there have never been two other theatres, either in terms of the number of performances or the number of attendees. ”

"Oh, I heard your bet. Mr. George, why don't I join in this bet, I also bet on Mr. Hayden's upcoming Shadow Animation, the average number of viewers per game will be higher than that of other theaters at the same time, and if I lose, I am willing to do something for the Drama Society, such as finding a special place for you to carry out activities, and at the same time I will negotiate with Mr. Hayden to allow your rehearsal to be performed as an official play in the Hayden Theater; if you lose, I hope you will no longer insist on opposing the Drama Society's acceptance of the Shadow Animation, and you can do something for me. ”

"What's the matter?" said George, hesitantly.

"That's right, I got a kind of magic circle from the Wizards' Guild that can transmit the contents of letters over long distances, well, the kind that everyone will see at the Student Registration Management Department when they enter the Academy. This kind of magic is very useful to me, and I plan to use it for my business here in St. Quentin, but it takes people to set up the magic circle and maintain it regularly, and if you lose, then you are responsible for doing me this favor. Solomon made a condition.

"This. George paused for a moment, then immediately gritted his teeth and agreed, this is not too harsh conditions, even if he loses, it is just a free labor for Solomon.

"Solomon, now that we're on the same page. Luna chuckled and gently covered her mouth with her hand.

"Hehe, Senior Sister Luna, as a junior brother and a comrade-in-arms on the same front, since I am here today, of course I can't be empty-handed. So, in the name of Franklin Bank, Liberty City, Solomon Company, and our lovely Agatha, I decided to donate a complete set of props to the Theater Club that could be used to shoot and show the Shadow animation, but it may take a little time to ship it from Liberty City. ”

Solomon glanced at George and said, "Actually, even if you insist on drama, have you ever thought that you can use the props of shooting the Shadow animation to record the drama performance for future observation, which is also helpful for drama." ”

"Ah, thank you so much. Luna was pleasantly surprised to learn that the Shadow Animation was equipped with a camera and projector, as well as a plastic disc to store the film.

The plastic disc was not worth a few dollars, but the camera and projector were not cheap, and Solomon had negotiated a price specifically for the props when he first worked with the theater at Modo.

These mages in the drama theater are all students, and there are fewer nobles from the nobility, they can enter the magic academy, of course, there is a certain economic foundation in the family, but the price that the parents are willing to pay is to support them to learn magic, and it is quite painful to buy such a set for the hobby.

And the key point is that although the production of camera and projector is more proliferating than before, some people have analyzed the principle of it and imitated it, but it has not yet reached the point where it can be bought casually.

That is, if you want to buy it, even a magician must have a certain way, and it may not be the original product of Solomon's company, it may be someone else's imitation.

Now that Solomon was willing to give it away for free, he immediately won the favor of these drama-loving magicians.

Needless to say, there are those who are inclined to accept the Shadow Animation, and the other neutral or those who insist on drama but have an unstable position in reality will certainly not mind not being curious after having such a set of equipment.

Maybe only George and the others will be more stubborn, but Solomon reminded him just now, even if you don't use it to make a shadow animation, you can use it to document, to record the play you rehearsed.

"So, we can try some Shadow animation in the future?" said Luna, excitedly.

"Yes, but it depends on what kind of film you're going to make. Solomon said.

Luna asks Solomon about it, and before he knows it, Solomon has integrated into the theater club and is welcomed by the vast majority of them, even those magicians who stick to the theater line, they don't mind listening to Solomon talk about the difference between shadow animation and theater at this time.

Solomon kept talking, answering questions from Luna and the others, while mentally assessing the effect of his visit to the Drama Club.

He had come here with a bit of care, giving a speech, giving gifts, and even joining George and Luna's bet.

As long as the gambling contract has a result, in the near future, the fax magic array arranged in the San Quentin branch should find a helper, and in the distance, this is an entry point, maybe in the future, the group of mages in front of you can also be pulled onto their own boats.

Reginer's case may be in a few months before the auction of the plane coordinates will begin, and he is preparing for it now.

Of course, the magicians here in the drama club are just idle chess, and the real key lies in the composition of the exploration team, especially the composition of the force part inside.

Solomon became the center of the drama club during this day, and although Agatha was ostensibly more noble than him, Solomon came with him as Agatha's attendant.

But Agatha did not see any displeasure at all, on the contrary, she always stood by Solomon's side, watching Solomon speak, waving her gestures, and her eyes were full of sweetness, as if Solomon was more glamorous than she was the center.

Finally, when Solomon left with Agatha, he decided to give each member of the Drama Club a ticket to the Merchant of the Free City, which was to be staged at the Hayden Theater.
