"Mr. Yuan, when I take advantage of the girls to make up, I want to talk to you about the script."

At this time, they had a late-night snack in the affiliated restaurant of the famous Waldorf Astoria Hotel, which is also the place where Old Kennedy stayed.

"Mr. Kennedy, I must know everything about "The Lonely Girl in the Famine."

"Yuan...that, can I call you Neo?"

"Of course, then I'll call you Johnson."

Although it is not as complicated as the Cialis at this time, the names of foreigners are indeed a bit particular.

To call each other Mr/Ms (and other names like Dr, Sir, Lady, Madam) and First Name (name), is the most formal and unfamiliar way of addressing. For example, Professor Chandler calls his student Mr. XXX.

If you are familiar with each other, you can call each other's Last Name, just like the way these two gentlemen now call each other.

If you are close, you can use the name of love, which is the abbreviation of Last Name. Miss Ainukar Rochelle is called "Ann". Mr. Louis Baker's "Louis" also means this.

If you are extremely close relatives, you can use the middle name to call them. For example, FDR is called "Drano" by your family.

JFK's father showed a meaningful smile and said, "Neo, your script is very exciting, I have nothing to ask. What I want to ask is "Twelve People"..."

"Twelve People?" Master Yuan was surprised, "Johnson, what's wrong with this script?"

Old Kennedy smiled and waved his hand, "No, this script is of course very exciting. I mean, I want to ask you, if there is still such a script, can you sell it to me? Of course, the price is easy to say."

This guy is indeed a profiteer with a very low limit, so he is poaching. No wonder... he has colluded with the gangsters now and sold smuggling smugglers from Canada and Cuba to the United States.

He understood a little. This guy thought that the investment in "The Lonely of Famine" was too big and the prospects were not very clear. However, he wanted to enter the film industry, so he came to collude with himself in private.

When it comes to movie scripts, Yuan Yanshu naturally has some, so it doesn’t matter if he gives away a few classic scripts for free.

But why did he do this? Is this guy the chairman of Boston Bank or his father of JFK?

Master Yuan is now backed by the Morgan Consortium and doesn’t care much about Boston Bank. As for JFK, that’s even more, it’s unknown whether this kid will definitely become the commander of the United States.

But then again. On that timeline, Kennedy, the old man, became the US ambassador to the UK in 1937. He asked an Irish Catholic to be the ambassador to England. I have to say that FDR still has a little "humor".

Moreover, the ambassador to Britain was not optimistic about Britain and France at all, but he had a good impression of Germany. Not only did he support the policy of appeasement against Germany, he also wrote to Roosevelt in 1940 to advise him not to provide military aid to Britain and France.

Unfortunately, FDR did not listen to his advice, but instead recalled him to the country and never gave him any political position. Old Kennedy disappeared from politics.

If he still became the ambassador to the UK in 1937 on this timeline, then Old Kennedy is indeed worth winning.

"Click!"

Yuan Yan suddenly lit a cigar and took this opportunity to sort out his own ideas.

Rejection is definitely not something that can’t be refused, but Master Yuan was not very willing to give up those classic scripts...

"Gentlemen, what are you talking about? Can you tell us?"

At this moment, the two little beauties had finished their makeup and returned to the dining table.

"Of course, I'm asking Mr. Yuan to write a script for me." Old Kennedy said without hesitation.

"Really?" Miss Suxi's eyes lit up, "Mr. Yuan, what are you going to write this script?"

Miss Momann on the side also showed a curious look.

"Haha..." Master Yuan laughed dryly, "Mr. Kennedy sees me as the kind of magician who makes a name for himself. In fact, whether it is writing scripts or novels, it requires inspiration. To be honest, after "The Lonely Girl in the Famine" and "Song of Ice and Fire", my inspiration has almost been used up. Even if I want to, I can't write it for a while..."

Hearing this, all three people on the table showed disappointment.

When Yuan Yanshu said this, he couldn't help but feel moved and said, "I have indeed exhausted inspiration, but there are still some ideas..."

He looked serious and asked, "Have you seen "The Twelve People"?"

"Of course I've seen it." The three of them nodded at the same time.

"Twelve People" is a hot topic in New York recently. It is both acclaimed and popular. Because there is currently only one professional audio film theater in New York, and there are less than a thousand seats in total, so every venue is full.

The continuous playback from morning to midnight cannot meet the needs of the audience, so the station can only be opened. Even the station tickets during prime time are hard to get.

When Old Edison saw such a grand scene, he didn't care about his conflict with Yuan Yanshu.

Edison and DreamWorks jointly invested in building a second audio film theater in New York. Some other theater owners who were conscious of the art are following suit and are in contact with Edison to transform their own theaters.

However, there are still a few people who are forward-looking now. After all, the reconstruction of a theater is not a small investment.

When our Master Yuan saw this situation, he began to consciously introduce the concept of "theater chain".

You know, although the American film industry is booming, there is no concept of theaters at this time.

There are three stages in the history of American film screenings. The first stage was the "Nickel Cinema" period from 1905 to 1915.

In 1905, the first nickel coin theater in the United States appeared in Pittsburgh. The theater was named "Five Immortals Cinema", NICKELODEON. It is composed of the word "NICKEL" and the word "ODEON". The "Five Immortals" is an American five-cent coin, so it is also called "Nickel coin theater".

The theater owner and real estate agent John P. Harris and his brother-in-law Harry Davis, the two owners, advertised on this cheap fare. As a result, from 8 a.m. to night argument, the theater had 96 seats full, with nickel coins rolling, and an average income of more than 1,000 yuan per week.

The main customers of "Nickel Cinema" were American immigrants from the poorest class of society. The success of "Nickel Cinema" quickly set off a wave of imitation in the United States, not only bringing huge economic income to the United States but also greatly stimulated the distribution and production industry of the United States. By 1906, there were an estimated 100 screening venues in Pittsburgh, and by 1908, there were 8,000 to 10,000 screening halls of the same form in the United States.

Incupis heard that most of the founders of the "5-cent movie theater" were newly immigrants, especially Jews who fled Central Europe, including shoemakers, merchants, and workers. Some of these people later became big names in the film industry.

It entered the second stage since 1915, which was the "Movie Palace" period.

These Movie Places are a bit similar to later cinemas, which do their best to be luxurious, so some children think they have come to heaven. Moreover, there are at least 2,000 seats in these theaters, and the maximum number is 5,000, which is even more opera houses than opera houses.

This marks that American movies have changed from entertainment for the lower class to the hobby of middle class and above society. Tickets have also increased from five cents to more than one dollar. You should know that at this time, the "migrant workers" and "factory girls" in the United States earn only four or five dollars a week.

The first movie palace is Chicago's "Central Park Theater". The owner Baraban Katz has built three cinemas of the same size in Chicago, which can be said to be a daily gain.

Then in 1925, it entered the stage of a national theater chain.

Mr. Katz formed an alliance with Lasky, the largest producer in Hollywood at the time, not only consolidated the source of its cinemas, but also further expanded the theater territory.

Famous Players Lasky Corporation is the predecessor of Paramount Pictures. The Balaban Katz system has thus transformed into Paramount Theater Company. The first real theater chain in the United States was officially formed.

That's right, this lord is also a Jew. I have to say that the Jews have indeed added a lot of points in business.

In fact, this is also a microcosm of the establishment of chain businesses in the United States. National chain businesses first appeared in the food and retail industries, and then quickly expanded to pharmaceuticals, cars, gas stations and clothing stores, which ultimately affected the film screening industry.

Therefore, Yuan Yanshu's appearance was a period when the American film screening industry developed from the second stage to the third stage. He was just able to "stop a fool".

At this time, Master Yuan was backed by Wall Street Financial Capital and was an alliance with Edison, which held the patent for audio films. He also had the largest director in America at this time.

If he had "good time, place and people", he would not let himself go if he did not establish his own theater chain, but watched the Jews grow bigger in this industry.

So under his promotion, Edison Company and DreamWorks Film officially established a cooperative relationship and jointly established its own theater company - United Theater Company. The person in charge of this company is the youngest son of Old Edison. Theodore Edison, so the relationship between him and Old Edison has been alleviated.

Although there are currently only two direct theaters under the United Theater Company, they are using Wall Street funds to start acquiring other theaters and renovating them.

This is also a big way for Master Yuan to truly change the development direction of the American film industry and prevent Hollywood from falling into the hands of Jews!

Compared to this big thing, the guidance of "Twelve People" is a little CASE to guide public opinion.

Because this movie made public opinion about Dempsh's case ferment again, New York City District Attorney Donald Ramsey had to return the case to the NYPD and ask them to provide evidence again. Now it seems that if there is no major breakthrough in the case, Mrs. Dempsh may be acquitted.

"Well, you'll just watch it." Our Master Yuan nodded, "So what do you think are the biggest benefits of audio movies?"

"That..." Old Mr. Kennedy said in confusion, "Isn't it a dialogue?"

Yuan Yan suddenly took a cigar, shook her head and denied: "Johnson, of course not."

Miss Moman reacted, clapped her hands and said excitedly: "Music! Audio movies can combine music and plot!"

"clatter!"

Master Yuan snapped his fingers and said, "Smart girl! That's right, audio movies can not only let the audience hear the actors' dialogues, but also let the audience hear music. This is not the random soundtrack in the cinema in the past, but the real movie soundtrack. Then..."

He looked at the three people in front of him and said, "Did you think of it?"

"Music...Movie..." The three of them said in unison, "Music Movie!"

"Yes." Yuan Yan nodded with a smile, "Johnson, if you want to make a movie, you can make a music movie."

"This is such a good idea!" said the two little girls excitedly.

"Why..." Old Kennedy was still a little hesitant.

"Johnson, don't hesitate. This is a rare opportunity."

Our Master Yuan encouraged him with all his might: "As long as you have watched "The Twelve People", you will know that audio movies replace silent movies are the general trend and no one can stop them. Of course, we should follow the trend..."

"Actually, I have to say that musical movies are much simpler than making feature films like "The Twelve People" and "The Lonely of Famine". Even the scripts are ready-made. We can bring previous operas or musicals to the screen. We can also adapt classic works, just stuff singing and dancing in."

"Johnson DreamWorks is now limited in size and has a shortage of staff. Mr. Griffith is not good at this. That's why he has such an opportunity. Otherwise, after "The Lonely of Famine" is completed, I would also suggest them to shoot music and dance films."

"If you are not very interested in investing in this movie, our DreamWorks won't force it. Why not try making a music movie? I don't think the investment will be very big..."

"Mr. Yuan, you are such a genius!"

Miss Suzy's eyes showed strange light and immediately agreed, "Johnson, I think Mr. Yuan is right. You can definitely make music movies!"

She almost crawled into old Kennedy's arms, hugged his neck and said in a sweet voice: "If you don't have personnel in this regard, I can introduce you to you!"

"I can..." Unfortunately, Miss Suxi whispered softly to JFK's father's ear, Master Yuan didn't hear it.

In fact, Miss Moman also had a look of extreme desire on her face, but her beautiful eyes were staring at Yuan Yanshu's handsome face.

Yuan Yan suddenly turned her head and smiled slightly, "Miss Moman, are you interested too?"

The girl bit her lips tightly, so excited that she couldn't even speak, but nodded heavily.

Our Master Yuan sighed in his heart. No wonder Harvey Wigenstein came out a hundred years later. This circle is really...

Let me like it!!!
