The movie screening is over, in the lobby outside the Whitebud Theater.
"No... Why did the devil die in the end! He was so kind to Belle! I can't accept it!!"
Sansa kept wiping her tears with the handkerchief. Sansa was also a girl with extremely developed lacrimal glands. This was the second handkerchief she used, and she borrowed it from Hurland.
"Shouldn't the citizens of your holy kingdom, Messiah, be cold-blooded and ruthless toward demons?"
This is the fourth time that Ciri has watched it. She has long been prepared in her heart, and can hold back her tears in front of some touching scenes, and began to pay attention to the small details in the movie, such as "how many shots does she have".
On the other hand, Sansa, who was sitting next to Ciri, was no good. When the movie ended, she went directly into a state of tears.
The country of the holy religion, Messiah, is a country that Ciri knows. It has always advocated that "devils are a group of evil invaders", and they have hated the devil for nearly a hundred years. It can be said that the negative image of the devil is all the missionaries of this country. Shaped when the world lobbied for doctrine.
In the words of Joshua, it is the "brainless black" of the devil.
"This... this is not the same... "
Sansa was a little overwhelmed by Ciri's question, but she still stood firmly in the position that Belle and the demon must be together, and she was still very happy.
The reason is that earlier in the movie, especially when the demon officially accepts Belle, Sansa is surrounded by an emotion called "romance".
The really good tragedy is to show the most beautiful things to the audience, and then smash it to pieces!
"Don't cry, it's just a story."
For Sansa crying and complaining that the story shouldn't be so sad at the end, Hurland also had some sympathy. She patted Sansa's back lightly and comforted her in this way.
Sansa's reaction made Joshua quite satisfied. People in this world have not been brainwashed by religion to the point of becoming mentally retarded. Although Sansa is a citizen of the Holy Land, a country dominated by religion, she still maintains her own personality. idea.
But this may also be the reason why Sansa has been studying at Nolan.
Knowing this, Qiao Xiu doesn't have to worry that this theater will be besieged by a bunch of Crusaders. After all, this is the domain of magicians.
"Sir, the background wall you need will be built tomorrow, and everyone in Nolan will be able to see the poster of this movie."
Taking advantage of this period of time, Sir Bai Jinghua finally broke free from the condemnation of the noble lady, and began to report the latest progress of the publicity work to Joshua.
"As soon as possible, there are more places to sell tickets."
Qiao Xiu has taught the original spar projection method to the magicians under Sir Bai Jinghua. Although the Bai Jinghua Theater has been in decline recently, as the manager of this theater, Sir Bai Jinghua still has a certain influence in Nolan. , In particular, Sir Bai Jinghua has a wide range of friends, and he has friends among the nobles of various countries, although most of them are noble wives.
"I have already started preparing for this, and this is the contract I have drawn up for you."
Sir Bai Jinghua's business vision is a little worse, but not completely absent. He can imagine what kind of wave the movie "Beauty and the Devil" will set off in Nolan, and the Bai Jinghua Theater will surely usher in another peak in history. And of course he didn't dare to neglect Qiao Xiu who brought all this.
Because at present the only person in the world who can make movies is Qiao Xiu! Qiao Xiu will not be satisfied with the movie "Beauty and the Devil". In the future, more excellent films will be born from Qiao Xiu's hands. If all of them are released in the White Thorns Theater... Sir White Thorns has not dared to think about it any longer. Now, that's a hypothetical enough to get him excited about having a heart attack!
"I take eighty percent?"
Qiao Xiu glanced at the contents of the contract. All of them were commercial contracts based on the Nolan Patent Law. The division has also changed from seventy-three to eighty-two.
"I still have a little savings here, my lord... I think you must need a lot of money to make this great work. For me, money is just the number needed to maintain the theater." Sir Bai Jinghua said. .
This is really a dramatist who has completely devoted himself to art, and Qiao Xiu has not rejected Sir Bai Jinghua's kindness. After all, Qiao Xiu's next plan does require a lot of financial support.
Qiao Xiu signed his name on the contract and gave it to Sir Bai Jinghua, and he carefully put away the contract.
"Sir, leave the rest of the work to me. If you need actors for your new work, don't be rude, I will help you find the right person."
In fact, the suitable candidate for Sir Bai Jinghua's mouth includes him... As a dramatist who is a part-time actor, he is very much looking forward to being selected as an actor in Joshua's next movie, even if it is a trick.
"Actors? Speaking of which, it's time to start work on this. Sir intends to establish a business guild."
The popularity of "Beauty and the Devil" can continue for a long time, and all that Joshua has to do is to slowly wait for the reputation of this movie to gradually ferment throughout Nolan.
And when "Beauty and the Devil" becomes popular, someone will definitely pay attention to the people behind the scenes and the LOGO at the beginning.
There are definitely many people who want to become a movie actor like Sir White Thorns, and Joshua has no reason to reject this actor with a decades-long acting career, so Joshua plans to formalize the establishment of an entertainment company.
In the country of Nolan, the closest thing Joshua can think of to the company is the business guild.
"Sir, do you... want to do business?"
"No, the nature of this guild is like those established by spellcasters, except that the members of my guild work in the form of performances, paintings and other forms."
Qiao Xiu intends to set up a business guild for the development of games, movies, and music. The name is to be determined for the time being. In fact, Qiao Xiu really wants to call it the Earth Entertainment Guild, but it sounds a bit strange.
"Can I join the lord? If the guild is stationed, I think I can provide it."
Sir Whitebud knows that spellcasters will establish some guild organizations, which generally accept commissions from others to earn remuneration, which is the favorite line of mercenaries who regard mage as a combat profession.
"Thank you for your kindness, Sir Whitebud, but I don't think it's suitable for you to be transformed into a tavern."
Guild residence... A company needs an office building, and Joshua does have a property that can be invested in the city of Nolan, and that is the property owned by a businesswoman, Marina.
Because of the robbery, Marina lost her own goods and temporarily lost her identity as a businessman. Joshua was willing to help her, but she didn't know if she would like to change from a businessman to an innkeeper, the owner of the Hearthstone Tavern. The innkeeper... is also the location of the guild that Joshua planned in the future.
