Chapter 717 Mastering the World's Public Opinion Tool
How to become a Ming Dynasty person?
The answer is very simple.
As long as they are Chinese, every Chinese is a member of the Ming Dynasty. Ming Dynasty is the country of all Chinese people!
Every year, millions of Chinese immigrate to the Ming Dynasty from their homeland. Chinese overseas can apply for passports directly at the embassy or consulate, but what?
All they apply for is an expatriate passport, and naturalization still requires some assessments.
Just like naturalized citizens must pass the "Chinese language proficiency test", Chinese naturalization also requires a test. The content of the test is very simple. In fact, it means passing a simple cultural test. In fact, it just excludes illiteracy. Of course, Chinese people
Naturalization also requires passing the "Chinese Language Proficiency Test".
Why?
Ming Dynasty treats everyone equally, and the same applies to its own people. Hispanics and mixed-race Indians must pass tests before they can obtain high school diplomas, enter universities, and then engage in civil servants, teachers, lawyers and other industries. The Chinese themselves
Of course it should.
After all, Ming Dynasty is fair!
"From now on, I will be a Ming Dynasty person."
Like all those who hold an expatriate passport, Chen Shao finally passed the most difficult "oral exam" after "passing five hurdles and defeating six generals". For him, the reason why it was difficult was because...
"I'm from Cantonese..."
Although it was a bit difficult, I finally passed the exam.
To celebrate, he went to the cinema again.
After arriving in Yingtian, if there is anything that attracts Chen Shao, it is the cinema. To put it more simply, it is a theater dedicated to playing Ming movies. Few people who have been to Ming Dynasty have not seen a "movie show".
After all, this can be regarded as the characteristic of Ming Dynasty.
To this day, Chen Ming still remembers that when he first entered the dark house, he was confused. Suddenly the lights turned on, and a train suddenly appeared in front of him, spraying white gas and whizzing towards him.
Come.
Facing the oncoming train, Chen Shao almost rolled from his desk and chair to the ground. Just as he was rolling and crawling to escape, the laughter around him made him realize that the train could not escape.
The pictures projected on the cloth are the "movie drama", and the train is just the light and shadow on the curtain.
However, the light and shadow on the cloth are exactly the same as the real thing!
Since then, he has been obsessed with movies, and it can even be said that he is obsessed with movies out of control.
In the past two months, he has been watching movies almost every day.
Movie tickets were very cheap, like the one he watched, which had no plot, and showed short films about the great rivers, mountains, and industry of the Ming Dynasty. The movies lasted for more than ten minutes and only cost a penny.
There is also a kind of movie that has a plot. The duration of the movie may be half an hour, or 40 or 50 minutes. There are both funny comedies and dramas. Of course, there are also some documentaries about construction or war. Such movies only cost two minutes.
money.
Although it is cheap enough, there are many screenings in the cinema every day, with as few as fifty or sixty people in each screening and as many as several hundred people, so the flow of people is huge.
The difference today is that Chen Shao did not enter the cinema. He stood under the telephone pole opposite the cinema, holding a bottle of iced Coca-Cola in his hand, and just stood there...counting people.
"It's not even ten o'clock, and there are already a thousand people!"
When the number of people watching the movie exceeded 1,000, Chen Shao was extremely surprised. There must be too many people!
"One penny per person, there are already 1,000 people before night. If you include the night, there are not thousands of people?... There must be at least dozens, or even hundreds of dollars of turnover on this day, like this
How much investment does it take to build a movie theater?”
Recalling the size of the cinema, Chen Shao suddenly clapped his hands excitedly.
"Okay, this is the deal."
In fact, the reason why he came to Daimyo from New York this time was not just to apply for naturalization and become a famous person. The other reason was to find some business opportunities here and bring them back to New York to do it.
After staying here for two months, he made up his mind to return to New York and open a movie theater. After all, there are no movie theaters in New York and the entire United States.
You will definitely make money doing this kind of independent business!
There are sometimes queues here in Ming Dynasty, let alone in the United States?
Whenever he thinks of this idea, Chen Shao's heart trembles with excitement.
But it was not easy to open a movie theater. When he wanted to buy a projector, he ran into a problem.
"It's not that we don't sell, but that our product orders have been scheduled until June this year, and the company has regulations that give priority to supplying products to domestic countries. If you want to open a cinema in New York..."
In the exhibition hall of Phoenix Optical Instrument Company, when faced with Chen Shao's request to buy a projector, the salesman shook his head and refused.
"I guess your list will be at least until next year."
"next year!"
In an instant, Chen Shao was dumbfounded. He never expected such a result. How could it be like this?
"Sir, you are thinking about it. I really want to open a cinema in New York. Sir, when the time comes, I will buy whatever movies you make and show them to foreigners, so that they can see what China has to offer."
Chen Shao directly played the "let foreigners know more" card, but the other party still refused directly.
"You said these are useless. Of course, good things should be used by your own people first. But don't worry, sir, the company didn't know that movies were so popular at the beginning. Now we are adding equipment. Soon after our new factory is put into production, the movie projector will
The output will also increase, and when the time comes, it will naturally be your turn."
Just when Chen Shao was rejected again and left Phoenix Optical Instrument Company in a somewhat listless mood, Emperor Zhu Da was watching a new movie in the royal screening room in Yingtian. The movie was a documentary about the construction of a hydropower station.
It was Daming's first hydropower station, with an installed capacity of only 30,000 kilowatts, but it was also a good start!
Looking at the spectacular engineering scenes in the movie, Emperor Zhu turned his head and asked.
"It seems that there are no movie theaters in the United States and Europe right now."
"Your Majesty, our output is very limited. Compared with projectors, the market demand for cameras is now greater. Projector production cannot be scheduled at all, and there are also problems with film production. Therefore, for now, the development of overseas markets is
, but there is no motivation.”

Listening to the answer from Cheng Kun, the general manager of Universal Pictures, Emperor Zhu Da frowned.
"You can't always think about your doorstep. Currently, European and American countries are limited by technical reasons. Cinemas are still starting from scratch. Now is the time for us to seize this opportunity and seize the market. The investment in cinemas is not large. If the Chinese can be like in
Just like the United States opens laundromats, it opens movie theaters all over Europe and the United States. This will not only help change the image of Chinese people in various countries, but the most important thing is..."
The most important thing is that it is equivalent to controlling the most powerful tool of public opinion in this era! A very important reason why Jews have a transcendent status in the United States is that most of the Hollywood movie tycoons are Jews, and the so-called eight major film companies are all Jews.
Founded. They not only produce movies, but what is the most important thing? They control the theater chain. They further control the movie through the theater chain. No matter what movie anyone wants to make, it must be released. If the mainstream theater chain cannot release it, then
Movies will definitely lose money, which is why Jews can decide what kind of movies to make.
Since the Jews can use money to control theater chains, why can't Ming Dynasty use technology to control theater chains and spread Chinese theater chains around the world before European and American countries enter this industry...
By that time, it will no longer be the directors who decide what movies to make, but the Chinese people who will decide what movies to make. If they don't make it, it doesn't matter, because even if they make it, no one will go see it.
In other words, they filmed it but had nowhere to put it.
