    Many, many years later, at a banquet that was so extravagant that it made people envious and jealous, when Lin Taiping was asked why he chose to film "Titanic" in front of a large group of movie-loving aristocratic ladies, he said  I always sigh with regret and emotion - "I can't help it. When I talked about making a new movie, the first word that came to my mind was "Titanic". Who told me that when I was studying in the past, I had  He was forced to watch it by his ex-girlfriend twelve times, twelve times, twelve times. "To be honest, it was simply inhumane treatment. Whenever Lin Taiping thinks of the horrific scene at that time, he will feel horrified even after more than ten years.  But to be honest, his ex-girlfriend was not the only one who was crazy about "Titanic" at that time. In fact, almost all the audiences around the world, especially the female audiences, were fascinated by "Titanic".  That's why it created that incredibly terrifying box office record at the time.  Because of this, when it comes to shooting a new movie, Lin Taiping immediately reflexively thinks of this movie - a plot that is in line with the world culture of Constance without major modifications, a romantic, bleak, beautiful and tear-jerking life and death love, plus  The spectacular sight of a luxury cruise ship hitting an iceberg and sinking To be honest, this is definitely a huge money-scammer!  In fact, as he expected, the newly released "Titanic" was like a violent hurricane, sweeping across the entire Emerald City in just a few days with a terrifying momentum that stunned everyone.  The province, no creature in its path was spared. In front of the New World Cinema in the Port of Nantes, there was a queue of hundreds of meters long from morning to night, day and night. Fanatic audiences came from the Emerald Province.  People came from all directions, their eyes were red and their stomachs were rumbling, but they still insisted on queuing. Some people even brought their bedding over directly, as if they wanted to buy a ticket first even if they died here.  In order to satisfy the needs of these audiences, Piginstein can only bring a large group of demons.  "Titanic" was screened continuously for 24 hours, and by the end even the crystal ball was so hot that it spontaneously combusted. But even so, the long queue outside was still extending at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it could even be connected.  Around the earth ahem, twice around the Port of Nantes.  It¡¯s hard to get a vote!  This is truly a hard sell!  On the black market, a movie ticket with an ordinary seat has been sold for fifty gold coins. The first batch of scalpers born in the Emerald Province made a lot of money and became rich overnight.  In fact, later on, they no longer dared to appear around New World Cinema, because as soon as they stopped there, many enthusiastic spectators would immediately gather around them and give away their tickets and clothes within a few seconds.  Grab them all.  Then, I don¡¯t know which bastard was so wicked that he actually spread the news that Baron Michael and Mr. Lin Taiping had many VIPs to increase their tickets. As a result, less than two hours after the news came out, the Baron¡¯s Mansion was occupied by hundreds of luxury cars.  The carriages were crowded.  A large number of aristocratic businessmen came to visit under various names, and they bribed and begged for cash. In short, all means were used, as long as they could get a movie ticket.  It would be no problem for them to praise Baron Michael for his handsomeness.  Poor Baron Michael only managed to hold on for a long time before he left everyone behind and ran away without loyalty. Lin Taiping, who was in charge of the management, could not escape.  He can only be surrounded by fanatical aristocratic businessmen on three levels inside and outside three levels every day. Some beautiful social butterflies even cast their eyes on him, saying that we are the best at warming beds and so on.  ??In fact.  The huge impact of "Titanic" is not only reflected in the box office, but also the economy and culture of the entire Emerald Province are involved. To give the simplest example, just the canteen in the cinema.  In half a month, nearly five tons of popcorn and six tons of orange juice were sold. Yes, you read that right, it is calculated in tons!  By the way, handkerchiefs in the entire Jade Province are out of stock. Those female audiences who fainted from crying every time in the theater have saved many handkerchief factories that were on the verge of bankruptcy. Some handkerchief factories even recovered after receiving sufficient funds.  , began to work overtime to produce that kind of purple gauze hat yes, it was the kind Miss Ruth was wearing, and it was sold for thirty gold coins apiece and was not available in the market.  This is nothing. As the influence of the movie craze continues to expand, more incredible scenes have appeared in the Emerald Province. For example, every street and every alley is covered with pictures of Count Dracula and Lilu.  Beautiful posters, for example, when intimate lovers are on a date, they all imitate the classic scene of "Titanic" and perform a classic action of opening their arms to face the sea breeze More exaggeratedly, the phrase "You dance and I dance too"  "Dance" actually became the most romantic buzzword. After watching the movie, many girls immediately wiped their red and swollen eyes and asked their boyfriends if they would do this. Even later, they didn't know.  ??Who is so philosophical, he actually created an unsolvable problem that has puzzled countless people - "If your mother and I fall into the sea together, who do you save first" Make a lot of money!  All in all, I made a lot of money!  After the most frenetic half-month passed, when Baron Michael escaped from the outside, when he saw the red box office number on the account book, he suddenly felt a tendency to tremble all over and have high blood pressure, but this was not the case.  It was just the beginning, because just a few seconds later, the butler next to him handed over the second account book with a blushing face: "Sir, what you just saw is only the income for the first three days. In fact, I have the next ten days.  Damn it" Poof!  Needless to say, Baron Michael was so happy that blood spurted out of his mouth and he fainted. When he came to with a distorted face, the first thing he did was to hold on to Lin Taiping who was drinking tea.  Hysterical hug: "Lin, dear Lin, am I dreaming? Please slap me a few times, hard, and hard!" Are you sure?  Lin Taiping looked at him with a smile. Of course, the demons next to him were not polite. They immediately rushed up with waving claws and fired their bows left and right at Baron Michael's face. To be honest, we have never seen such a request, but since  Brother, if you have such a wish, of course we will fulfill it.  "Bang bang bang, Baron Michael's face was swollen like a pig's head, but he still smiled so much that even his back molars were exposed, stimulated by the enthusiasm of the gold coins.  This guy suddenly became much wiser and asked a question full of questions: "Dear Lin, I don't quite understand. Since movie tickets are sold in short supply, why don't we do what we did with "A Chinese Ghost Story" last time?  How about a water screen movie screening directly at the pier? "Yes, the situation is already obvious. New World Cinema can no longer accommodate so many audiences. Even if the price of a movie ticket is increased several times,  It simply cannot satisfy the needs of avid viewers.  If this is the case, why not just hold an open-air screening at the pier, where tens of thousands of people can watch it at the same time, ensuring that money comes in faster than now.  "Because we want this craze to continue for a long time." Lin Taiping drank strong tea slowly, but touched his chin with a smile on his face, "Besides, I also have a long-term plan.  Unfortunately, I can't tell you now Don't mind. In fact, I think what you have to consider now is how to deal with those big businessmen. "Who?  Baron Michael was stunned for a moment in confusion, and then only a few seconds later.  When he subconsciously turned around to look, he suddenly saw that the door of the living room was slammed open, and dozens of murderous and vicious businessmen rushed in with the terrifying momentum of dying together.  Guards!  guard!  Baron Michael's first reaction was to call the guards.  But before he could call for help, dozens of big businessmen had already swarmed forward, and the leader, Mr. Sanders, stretched out his hands.  One hand held Baron Michael, who was trying to escape, and the other hand held Lin Taiping, who was as if nothing had happened, and they greeted enthusiastically: "Dear Mr. Lin, dear Baron, the weather is really nice today So, the two of us will  Are you interested in talking about the branches of New World Cinemas? "The branches of New World Cinemas?  Baron Michael was still a little unable to recover, but Mr. Sanders continued with a smile on his face: "Yes, you see, the current capacity of New World Cinemas is obviously unable to meet the needs. As a close friend of the Governor,  , I am happy to share your worries. For example, we can work together to build dozens more cinemas in other places in the Port of Nantes and in major towns in the Emerald Province. " " Share your worries!  Baron Michael was stunned for a few minutes, and finally understood. Then he immediately trembled with anger, thinking about your daydreams, wouldn¡¯t I build a cinema myself? Why should I talk to you people who eat people without spitting out their bones?  Businessmen cooperate, and you know with your knees that you clearly want to obtain part of the property rights of those cinemas, and then obtain a steady stream of box office profits.  "Baron, how can you say that?" Facing Baron Michael's anger, Mr. Sanders still smiled so amiably, "I can guarantee that you and Mr. Lin don't need to spend a penny, just  If you two provide a little technical support, we can spend a large amount of money to build dozens of cinemas in the Emerald Province. In return, we only need 10% of the cinema's shares. This is no different from giving away.  "That's right, that's right. The businessmen around him nodded, saying that they had always been extremely generous and planned to invest generously out of love for art. Baron Michael gritted his teeth with hatred and suddenly had the urge to call in the armed guards.  The thought of cutting down all these shameless bastards.  But he didn¡¯t really do it, because Lin Taiping was already drinking tea with a smile and whispered in his ear: "Mi Gao, I think??We can consider that if we build the cinema ourselves, it will not only require a large amount of money, but also take a long time. More importantly, don't forget, what else do you and your uncle need besides funds now?  " "Lin, what do you mean?  "Baron Michael's roar came to his lips and suddenly stopped strangely. He is absolutely right. If the Governor wants to fight against Admiral Hastings, in addition to needing large sums of money to form a private army, he also needs  Those reliable allies, and from this perspective, these big businessmen who control huge wealth Well, holding back the pain and resentment, Baron Michael struggled for a long time with a twisted face, and finally managed to squeeze out a few words.  He smiled brightly: "Everyone, actually, even if you don't come, I'm planning to come to you to discuss this matter. There's endless money to be made, and it's really good to be nice to everyone, so" "Then, let's talk about it.  What are the specific conditions?  Lin Taiping suddenly reached out and took over the words slowly, "First of all, I will let Piginstein provide the technology and ensure that the movie can only be shown in cinemas; secondly, you can only get 5% of the shares. I think  If it is unreasonable, please go out and turn left; finally, and most importantly, the number of cinemas is limited, and there are too many of you, so the construction rights of each cinema can only be determined through auction" Black, too dark  Suddenly, dozens of big businessmen looked at each other. The bright and cheerful smiles that they thought were sure of winning suddenly suddenly froze. Mr. Sanders couldn't help wiping the cold sweat on his forehead and stammered: "Mr. Lin, the first  We are very welcome, and the second clause is also acceptable, but the third clause" "With a bang, before Mr. Sanders could finish speaking, the door that had just been opened was opened again, and hundreds of businessmen completely ignored Meng.  Despite the obstruction of many group leaders, he rushed in bravely and fearlessly, and shouted loudly from a distance: "Mr. Lin, dear Mr. Lin, we just received your letter and heard that you plan to transfer the construction rights of the cinema  ¡­¡± I agree! Totally agree! I couldn¡¯t agree more! A few seconds later, Mr. Sanders, who was still wiping a cold sweat just now, immediately and wisely raised his hands in agreement. Dozens of big businessmen around him even rushed forward, full of enthusiasm.  With their faces flushed, they desperately took out the gold tickets. At this moment, they finally understood what time is money. Even if they delay for just a few seconds, a large amount of wealth will disappear. "What a wise decision.  .  Lin Taiping smiled as if he was a harmless person. He pushed the stunned Baron Michael forward and sent him directly into the crowd of businessmen with green eyes. "Then, all auctions and other matters will be handled by Baron Michael."  Take responsibility, I'll take a nap first Flash!  " He dodged as quickly as he could, and he left the living room a few seconds later. By the time poor Baron Michael came to his senses, he had already been blocked by the vicious businessmen. Captain Mondo and a group of knights had weird faces.  They looked at each other in confusion, wondering whether they should go up to save the Baron, or watch him be drowned by the golden tickets. But at this time, Lin Taiping, the instigator, was already holding a cup of tea and slowly walking along the corridor.  Go, under the golden sunshine at noon, he turned his head leisurely and looked at the living room that had been turned into a vegetable market. It was as messy as a pot of porridge, and he could only hear the constant panic screams of the baron's housekeeper -  ¡ª "Come here, come here, the Baron fainted Wait, the Baron woke up again Yes, sir, they just said they were willing to buy the construction rights of a cinema for 50,000 gold coins, no.  , now it¡¯s 60,000 Someone¡¯s coming, someone¡¯s coming, Sir, he fainted again!  "(To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
