The Rise of Australia

No matter which country you are in, there will be a phenomenon, which is simply called the above sentence and the following sentence will break your legs. New 𝟲𝟵Book Bar→𝟲𝟵𝘀𝗵𝘂𝘅.𝗰𝗼𝗺

What does that mean? Maybe an idea from the top of the country will cause a large number of relevant people at the middle and lower levels to rush around.

Especially for a national monarch with huge power like Arthur, Arthur's words can even make the entire Australasia move.

This is actually a double-edged sword. If this power is used well, it may push the country in a stronger direction.

But if people use this kind of power only for their own selfish desires, it is very likely that the country will be pushed into the abyss and will never be restored.

The good news is that Arthur has basically thought carefully about the various orders he issued, and will convene the cabinet government or other officials for discussion if he is unsure.

Although Arthur has various experiences from later generations, after all, he is only an ordinary person and may make mistakes.

However, as the head of a country, Arthur has a large number of subordinates and government officials to discuss. These officials are meant to do this, and Arthur is quite comfortable in using them.

Under Arthur's decision to vigorously develop talkies, the three major film studios in Australasia and related scientific researchers quickly mobilized. Hundreds of literary practitioners including various writers, novelists, literary Celebrities, historians and even artists, etc., were all gathered together.

They have only one mission, and that is to compile stories about the Australasian nation to promote national unity and national culture.

The story can refer to relevant historical facts, or you can make it up on your own, as long as it looks more real.

As long as they follow the general background of national unity and national unity, Arthur allows them to make certain assumptions about the national story, or even make it up randomly.

Anyway, Australasia has the final say in this region of Australia, and no country will come to compete with Australasia for the right to explain the history of this region.

The experts who were summoned took this task very seriously because they got the news that the stories they compiled would not only be adapted into sound films and broadcast across the country and even the world, but the better ones would even be selected to be added to Australia. Among the textbooks in Dalasi.

It is also possible that these experts, along with the stories they have compiled, will be immortalized in Australasia for thousands of years.

After all, they have chosen to become Australasian citizens, and who wouldn’t want to have a good reputation in this country?

Sydney, Royal Film Studios.

The Royal Film Studio is the film studio with the largest shareholding held by the royal family, with a shareholding ratio of 100%. new

Of course, the other two major film studios, Victoria Film Studios and Australasian National Film Studios, all have the background of the royal consortium. It can be said that in terms of film studios, the royal consortium is the big boss behind it. In fact, the three major film studios It was also an internal fight among the royal family.

However, this kind of competition is allowed, and some business competition can also make the development of the industry smoother.

It's better than having one company dominate the market and let the market monopoly lead to a decrease in the quality of the film and various services!

Karen is a professional film projectionist at the Royal Film Studios. The so-called movie projectionists actually bring movie projection equipment to small cities or rural areas where there are no movie theaters to show movies to those people.

In the beginning, it was because film companies went to rural areas and small cities to promote movies and expand their channels.

After a long time, some people have become accustomed to this form of entertainment. People in some villages often pool their own money when they have money to invite movie projectionists to show a movie.

Not many people in Australasia can go to the movies. If they could pay a projectionist to show a movie in their village, the villagers would be able to boast about it for a year.

But for those movie projectionists, small cities are okay, at least the transportation is very convenient. It is said that showing movies in some remote villages is particularly troublesome. After all, in this era, the combined wealth of a movie projectionist is not enough to pull a horse-drawn carriage. Going to a small village is completely asking for trouble.

But there is no way, this is the film studio's strategy to expand the market, and it is also the job that these film projectionists rely on to survive.

Thankfully, showing a movie isn't cheap. Even if the travel expenses and expenses to remote areas are included, the cost of a movie is equivalent to the income of an ordinary worker in Australasia for more than half a year.

This is also the reason why most villages and small cities choose crowdfunding when showing movies. There is no way, just a movie screening costs more than 30 Australian dollars, which is close to the per capita annual income of Australasia. .

It is for this reason that business for film projectionists like Karen is actually not very good.

Although a movie screening can earn them at least two or three months of the income of an average Australasian, the problem is that for those small cities and villages, the number of movie screenings may only be once or twice a year, or even It only happens once every few years.

This has resulted in Karen's business basically being able to open once every two or three months, and the overall income is only around the level of Australasia's per capita income.

If Karen hadn't occasionally found an opportunity to show a movie in a city square, attracting hundreds of people to watch and earn a little extra income, I'm afraid Karen's annual income would be about the same as that of ordinary people.

But despite this, Karen still doesn't want to lose her job. ɯoɔ˙xnɥsThe job of a former projectionist is not easy, but the overall income has been on an upward trend.

In the past few years, projectionists like Karen could not even find a screening opportunity for most of the year. Occasionally, I would secretly screen it in city squares, and I was worried that I would be reported by the movie theater people for stealing business from the city’s movie theaters.

Under the premise that the total film market has been on an upward trend, Karen is naturally unwilling to give up her career.

What's more, coupled with the income from secretly showing movies in the city, Karen's annual income is almost twice the per capita income. Such a high-paying career is nothing more than a bit of hard work, so why would Karen be willing to give it up?

Karen, who had just finished a movie and was about to take a good rest, suddenly received a notice from the Royal Film Studio, requiring all film projectionists to gather at the Royal Film Studio as soon as possible. There was an important announcement.

This news made Karen frown. After all, in addition to new films for them to pick up, it was only when the rent was settled that they would all be gathered at the Royal Film Studio.

Yes, these projectionists basically rented equipment from the Royal Film Factory. Half of their revenue from a movie screening was given to the Royal Film Factory to fund the rental of equipment.

But the good news is that after 20 consecutive years of handing over 50% of profits, these film projection equipment truly belong to the film projectionists. They only need to pay the rent of the films to the Royal Film Studio and do not need to pay for the rental of the equipment. .

Karen's dream is to earn enough money to open her own cinema in a big city like Sydney.

I heard that cinemas in Sydney earn tens of Australian dollars for every movie shown, and hundreds of Australian dollars are brought in every day, which makes Karen and many movie projectionists envious.

With some worried thoughts, Karen came to the Royal Film Studio early in the morning. With a slightly uneasy mood, he waited for the door of the office area to open.

"Karen, are you here so early?"

After waiting for a while, Karen's friend and colleague Trick came over and greeted Karen with a familiar face.

"Yes, Trick. I want to know early why the film studio called us here. I hope it won't be any bad news." Karen responded to his friend with a wry smile.

"I hope so, Karen. But judging from the current development of the film industry, I don't think it is bad news. If it is bad news, the film studio can just notify us directly. Why call us here?" Seeing that his friend was a little frustrated, Trick comforted him.

"Maybe you are right, Trick." After hearing his friend say this, Karen felt better, and he and his friend waited for the arrival of others.

After waiting for a while, most of the movie projectionists near Sydney had arrived and were gathering in twos and threes.

Finally at eight o'clock, the door to the office area officially opened. Frank, the head of the Royal Film Studio, walked out with a smile on his face. He looked at everyone in the film studio and said straight to the point: "Gentlemen, I have some good news for you. , the Royal Film Factory will continue to expand its market size and plans to build more cinemas in big cities like Sydney and Melbourne. Of course, cities with a population of more than 100,000 will have the opportunity to build cinemas, and you may become the person in charge of these cinemas .”

Frank's words were like a tranquilizer, causing the originally a little nervous movie projectionists to immediately quiet down and look at Frank expectantly.

"I know you are curious about why so many cinemas are suddenly being built. I can tell you some news. Talkies were born some time ago. Your Majesty decided to vigorously develop talkies and the film industry, and has invested a lot of money in us." Frank Explained with a smile.

Frank did not mention that two other film studios also received the same funding.

After all, such an occasion is to cheer up the employees under his command, so it is natural to highlight the importance of the Royal Film Factory.

Hearing that Arthur was very optimistic about talkies and wanted to vigorously develop the film industry, all the film projectionists present couldn't help but burst into excitement.

His Majesty the King is going to vigorously develop the film industry. Are they still worried about losing their jobs?

No! Ambitious film projectionists like Karen were already looking forward to positions as directors of cinemas in the city.

Although these newly built cinemas belong to the Royal Film Factory, as the directors of the cinemas, on the one hand, they can get in touch with cinemas early and cultivate their own abilities. On the other hand, they can also earn higher income and open cinemas on their own in the future. Lay a good foundation.

"Currently, we have been vigorously researching and developing sound film technology. We believe that within half a year at most, we should be able to start shooting sound films. In other words, there is only more than a year until the sound film is released, and this is more than a year. Opportunities for all of you. During this time, we will build at least ten cinemas and hire more than 20 film projectionists. Whether it is a cinema or a film projectionist, there is only one responsibility, which is to show a large number of what we have shot to the society. A free movie that the vast majority of Australasians can see with their own eyes."

"Director Frank, do you mean free movies?" someone asked.

You know, they all make money from paid movies. If movies were suddenly made free, where would their income come from?

"Yes, the next main direction of the Royal Film Studio is to shoot public welfare films about our nation and country. The so-called public welfare films will naturally be broadcast to all Australasians for free. But don't worry, these public welfare films are all It was filmed with the support of His Majesty the King. Whether it is a cinema or a film projectionist, every time a charity film is shown, they will get their due income." Frank nodded and explained.

At present, the cost of showing a movie is not small, it can easily reach dozens of Australian dollars.

Therefore, a problem arises, that is, even if a film studio produces a film about national and national unity, not many people will watch it.

After all, watching a movie is a big burden for the people. Even if Arthur can rely on his appeal to get most villages to play a movie, it will definitely not be worth the loss.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Arthur decided to broadcast the films of these ethnic groups and countries as a public benefit.

As for the cost and expenses of broadcasting, it will be borne by the government and the royal consortium. According to the agreement between Arthur and Prime Minister Walter, the government will reimburse 40% of the cost of these movies, and the remaining 60% will be borne by the royal family consortium.

Even if all the cities in Australasia were put together, they would only play a maximum of 10,000 movies a year.

Is 10,000 movie screenings expensive? Judging from the cost of 30 Australian dollars for a movie, 10,000 movies only cost 300,000 Australian dollars, and the cost is not much.

Even if the movie is played more times, it will be affordable for the finances of the government and the royal family.

Changing the way movies are broadcast to free public welfare can also attract more people to watch these specially shot movies, and the impact of these movies will be higher.

Not to mention anything else, just the name of the free movie is enough to attract most villages and individuals to watch it.

After all, it is a free movie. Even in the spirit of being a bastard and not taking advantage of it, a large number of small cities and villages can invite those movie projectionists to show a movie.

Of course, the cost of a movie is not only the screening of the movie, but also the shooting of the movie, the writing of the script, etc.

But in the final analysis, these are not big costs, especially for the currently relatively rudimentary film industry, where the cost of shooting movies is indeed not high.

What's more, we can also use public welfare films to allow the three major film studios to expand their film markets.

The more markets there are, the higher the profits of film studios will be. This will be of great help to the three major film studios in achieving independent profitability and development.

After hearing Frank's explanation, many movie projectionists breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, everyone needs to support their families. If there is no income due to charity movies, then you will really have to find a place to cry.
