Contradictions, conflicts, and differences are being born and dying every day.
In these processes, some ridiculously funny situations often occur.
For example, capitalists and the New Party. As we all know, during the Maggs administration, the cabinet continued to suppress the living space of capitalists and suppressed the expansion of many capitalists, which made many people hate Maggs.
But it happened that it was also the New Party and Maggs who really let capital out of its dog cage.
Although the capital forces and the cabinet were in dire straits before this, when Maggs stepped down and faced the old party, which was dominated by the old aristocrats, with an even worse attitude, the capitalists inexplicably gained some sense of identification and affinity with the new party.
So Wenger planned to have a chat with Powers. However, Powers, who was currently unable to open up the situation and didn't know what to do, felt that this might be an opportunity after receiving a call from Wenger.
Powers' current situation is very delicate. According to convention, as the current leader of the new party, he is considered the number one figure in the new party, but in fact his control of the new party may be less than 30%.
The person who can really decide the direction of the new party is the chairman of the new party committee, who is also the number two person in the party.
After Maggs stepped down, he promoted a new person to become deputy chairman, who is currently the third-ranking figure in the party. (Only the whip of the ruling party will be promoted to the third highest position in the party. If the party does not win the general election, the third highest position is often held by the vice chairman of the committee, and the party whip will automatically be ranked after the fifth highest position. .)
The No. 2 and No. 3 figures in the party are both important figures in the aristocratic faction. The chairman and deputy chairman also firmly control the new party committee, which makes him, the leader of the new party, very hurt.
Because sometimes some of his ideas and demands cannot be passed by the new party committee. He can't take care of big things and doesn't want to take care of small things. There is always a faint sadness that there is really no point in being a leader.
At this time, Wenger's call ignited some thoughts in his heart. Magers gained everyone's recognition through rebuilding the social economy and quickly accumulated enough authority.
The current environment is different from the previous one, Powers knows this very well, but this does not mean that getting close to capitalists is meaningless.
The biggest problem of the popular faction within the New Party is that it lacks key power and sufficient power. The popular faction accounts for less than 30% of the entire New Party. If this proportion is pushed up to more than 50% , he may not have the opportunity to replace the chairman and vice-chairman of the new party committee and let the new party become his backyard.
To achieve this requires the joint efforts of many people and a large amount of financial support.
People within the party are evaluated on their abilities, so how do they demonstrate their abilities in this commercialized modern society
Quite simply, developing the economy and the economy itself are capabilities.
The tipsy Powers immediately realized that this might be an opportunity. If he could become a potential alliance with the Chamber of Commerce, it would greatly improve his status within the party.
"I'm very sorry to disturb your rest at this time, but we have indeed encountered some problems and need your help." Wenger's tone was gentle and polite as always, which made Powers enjoy it very much. He likes to be treated by others. Respect.
This has nothing to do with what he lacks and what he wants. After all, he is the populist leader of the new empire party.
"No, don't bother me. I haven't rested yet. What I need most at this time is someone to talk to me." Powers asked his wife to bring him a cup of coffee. He needed to wake up, the unpleasant bitter taste. The smell can quickly get him out of a drunken state.
Powers's attitude made Mr. Wenger more emotionally stable. He began to explain the situation and highlighted the agreement reached with the new party when the Chamber of Commerce was first established.
The new party will hand over the power of the commercial sector to the Chamber of Commerce for independent operation and will not interfere. It has also written some guarantees into the laws of the empire through legislation.
Now that there is an internal problem in the Chamber of Commerce in Ambiro State, it should be solved by the Chamber of Commerce itself as usual. There is no need to trouble the local state government to supervise the internal review of the Chamber of Commerce, or even directly intervene.
When he said this, Mr. Wenger made a slight digression, "In fact, there has always been a lot of cooperation between the Chamber of Commerce and the New Party. After the election, I believe that under your leadership, Mr. Powers, some problems within the New Party have been resolved." To clarify, we can provide the new party with a portion of interest-free loans and some resources every year as agreed in the past to help the development and construction of the new party. "
Powers was suddenly stunned by what Mr. Wenger said.
In fact, he knew about some cooperation projects between the New Party and the Chamber of Commerce, but they were previously operated by the cabinet and the New Party Committee headed by Maggs, and had nothing to do with him as the "party whip".
Now..., it matters, because he is the leader of the new party. This is an extensive cooperation project involving millions or even larger scales. When he thinks of this, Powers's heartbeat suddenly speeds up.
He licked his lips that were dry due to drinking, and said enthusiastically, "I already understand the things you said before. I think it is necessary to abide by the laws of the empire and the agreement between us. I will personally inform you of more specific situations. Check with Mr. Dulin and get back to you as soon as possible."
Wenger finally smiled, "Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Powers."
After hanging up the phone, Powers looked at the microphone in his hand, and the slight dizziness and discomfort became wonderful. Using the funds and resources provided by the Chamber of Commerce to develop the power of the civilian wing of the party is obviously a very good doctrine. .
It is enough for this empire to have an old party with the old aristocracy as the main body. The new party should still be mainly civilians!
The next morning, Henry made a phone call to Dulin and told him what his father asked him to convey. After finishing speaking, he did not forget to tell Dulin that his original intention of conveying the message was not to convey the message itself, but to hope that Dulin would receive the message. Lin was able to tell what was going on.
Although the mentally retarded children suddenly became a little smarter, which caught people off guard, Dulin still thanked Henry. At least he understood that the top brass at the Chamber of Commerce had begun to actively intervene.
At the same time, representatives from the six major production companies also arrived in the capital of Ambiluo state. They came to discuss with Dulin the shooting and production of the "Westworld" series of movies.
Before Dulin came up with the idea of fabricating a complete world view for fictional movies, everyone's understanding of movies was stuck on "a story", or at best "the continuation of the story", without considering that this is not a story, but a story. A world, a complete world.
This makes the six major production companies very excited. The idea of Western World is no longer simply a problem of shooting a series of movies, but an opportunity to promote the leapfrog development of the film industry.
Over the past many years, there have always been several movies that have been hits every year, and some of them have had sequels. However, even if the sequels of these hit movies are popular, they cannot arouse widespread recognition and discussion in society like the previous ones. Due to the changes in screenwriters and roles, some originally good movies and characters were gradually abandoned.
But things are different now. Rather than simply making sequels, the production company's idea is to combine some of the same movies that it has not yet had time to spoil to form "worlds" and combine multiple successful movies to create several times the production. happiness and success, which is obviously an unprecedented and huge improvement.
They also hope to have a good discussion with Mr. Dulin who proposed this idea, starting from the formation of Western World.
Du Lin has nothing to hide about this. In fact, the so-called world is a story with multiple characters. In order to flesh out each character and take money out of the fans' pockets, he decided to separate each character. The result of shooting a series of movies as the protagonists alone, and then stacking these successfully created Western heroes in a united movie, the world becomes fuller.
In order to make Western World and the heroes in Western World more concrete, at Dulin's request, the eight cities in Ambiluo State must design their own city-specific emblems and a spirit that cannot be repeated with other cities.
Eventually, the spiritual symbols of these eight cities will be embodied and personified into eight heroes.
Although the mayors of the eight cities felt baffled by Dulin's administrative order requiring them to design something that was obviously "not doing their job properly", they still went ahead with the design very seriously.
After learning some of the content, everyone started brainstorming. Dulin also asked the production teams of the six major production companies to directly contact the city managers and asked them to design relevant characters as soon as possible.
In addition, representatives from the six major production companies stayed alone to discuss the on-demand issue with Du Lin.
It has been verified and proven by the market that the revenue from paid on-demand playbacks in cable TV is not much worse than the revenue from theater chains. The number of on-demand movies for some movies even exceeds the revenue from theater chains. This is mainly related to the socio-economic Construction results are directly related.
As people have more money in their pockets, the pursuit of spiritual enjoyment has become an urgent problem that needs to be solved. Movies, as one of the cheapest pleasures, are very popular among the people at the bottom of society.
Spending forty-nine minutes to enjoy more than an hour of fun has become a popular form of entertainment, but this is not very friendly to the middle class.
In particular, there are often some elegant people in movie theaters. The noise, bad smell and potential dangers make the middle class gradually stay away from movie theaters. Fortunately, Dulin's cable TV group provides them with a new channel to watch movies.
These middle class people don't care about the difference between 49 cents for a movie ticket and 1.99 cents for an on-demand video. For the middle class whose personal monthly income is generally more than 200 yuan, this amount of money is nothing. .
What the representatives of the six major production companies wanted to talk to Du Lin was about the issue of sharing.
They feel that the current share is a bit unreasonable.
