Culture Conquers Foreign Worlds

Chapter 88: Win investment

Harvey’s sudden visit made the Cromwell family feel a little flattered. Harvey’s identity is different. Since the "Earl of Monte Cristo" novel was published nationwide, Harvey’s personal influence has exceeded that of El Roy’s social circles. Scope, as long as he is willing to become a guest in the social circles of the capital Norton at any time. When they learned that Harvey was Alexander, the author of "The Count of Monte Cristo", they sent out invitations to Harvey for the first time, but they basically fell to nothing.

In the European-style living room of the manor house, the floor is covered with an off-white carpet made of cashmere. The crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling illuminates every corner. The polished marble floor is brighter under the light. The center of the living room is expensive. On the soft sofa, Diana’s brother William sat on the leather sofa and said in a casual tone: “It’s really nice not to dissolve the marriage, father.”

   His personal perception of Harvey is not good, not to mention the marriage between Harvey and Diana is basically not about him. Now that he sees his father's attitude is completely different from the past, anyone will feel uncomfortable.

Dunn, the owner of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce, sat opposite William and smoking a pipe. His face was handsome and elegant. His carefully trimmed beard made him look exactly like a middle-aged gentleman. He couldn’t help but see his son’s careless sarcasm. Frown: "William, you should also learn what a businessman should be. You have Diana's arrogant character but not the corresponding ability. Sooner or later arrogance will hurt you."

   "Am I already helping you take care of the chamber of commerce."

Dunn put down his pipe and sneered, "That's called care? It's the same childish game as a child playing house, otherwise you won't say this sentence now, I don't care what you think, Harvey Adri Ann’s current status cannot help you show such an attitude."

   William spread his hands: "What does it matter? Anyway, he will also be Diana's husband in the future. He will definitely forgive her brother for his ignorant behavior."

Dunn took the pipe and knocked on the armrest of the sofa: "He might, but I won't forgive your stupidity. If you want to be banned for a few years like the one in Elroy's house, then continue to stay now. Discrete attitude."

   met his father's cold and serious eyes. William knew that he was serious, and he sat up straight and did not continue to use words.

The atmosphere in the living room became quiet and serious. Dunn slowly said, smoking a pipe: "William, it doesn't matter how you play in the social world of Elroy. Harvey Adrian's identity is beyond this range. You need to know. What maintains the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce is not the commodity, but the relationship, the relationship between people, the social world and the social world. Toggling a spider silk is likely to cause the turbulence of the entire spider web. You should know the recent Kren The trend of the Weir Chamber of Commerce, don’t you wonder why almost every cooperation has been so smooth during this period, even some chambers of commerce larger than us are eager to cooperate with us?"

   "He?" William was not completely stupid either.

"Anyone who is interested knows that Harvey Adrian is the Alexander. He and Diana have a marriage contract. The most important thing in the social world is reputation. Power can bring reputation to people, and wealth can also be used by some people. Fame itself represents fame. The Cromwell Chamber of Commerce can only be regarded as a small role in the kingdom’s social circles, but Diana’s husband has become the most prestigious group. We businessman should act like a businessman. ."

   Harvey's arrival was warmly welcomed by Dunn and William. After having dinner together, the three came to the meeting room to discuss business matters. Although Diana is the eldest daughter of the Cromwell family, she is not eligible to participate in this matter without the management rights of the Chamber of Commerce. After dinner, she nodded to Harvey and went back to the room to rest in the posture that a lady should have.

   In the meeting room, Harvey turned off the lights and repeated the previous trick to use white tablecloths instead of projection cloths to show the function of projecting crystals.

   Projection Crystal is preparing to broadcast a documentary called "A Sailor's Day". It was originally a trial shot by Kenneth using photographic crystals. It was cut and used by Harvey's lens. The content is a day-long life record of a sailor in the port of El Roy. In it, Harvey explains as a narrator. The length is only more than 20 minutes, which is very suitable as a sample to explain the function of photographic crystals.

Dunn Cromwell is an old fried dough stick in a shopping mall, and there are many novelties with the special contact of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce. I am not surprised to see the white cloth projected "Sailor's Day" freeze frame. It is similar to the picture taken by an advanced illusion crystal.

   The clear freeze-frame picture shows a sailor is carrying the cargo to the cargo ship.

   Dunn was both surprised and a little confused about what medicine was sold in Harvey's gourd: "Harvey, do you want me to see some freeze-frame paintings?"

   William sat on the sofa and glanced at Harvey. There is nothing wrong with him here.

   Harvey fiddled with photographic crystals and explained with a smile: "Mr. Dunn, this time I am visiting you in the name of cooperating with the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce. Of course it cannot be that simple."

"Crack~" Harvey pressed the button of the photographic device, and the clear picture changed. In an instant, the picture gained "life". Everything inside moved, the voice was full, and the breeze blew the canvas of the sailing boat, Tang Both Eun and William could hear the sound of the waves, and the camera focused on the sailor carrying the cargo from far and near.

   Dunn and William were taken aback by the sudden movement.

"this is!"

   Seeing Dunn, who was maintaining a steady gentleman's appearance, was taken aback. Harvey stood aside and introduced: "I call it "Phantom". It is a dynamic picture taken with this camera device I invented."

   "This picture is moving!? How did it happen!" William asked while sitting upright, staring at the projection with a look of novelty.

   "Mr. Dunn, you should know that the Adrian family is not an ordinary nobleman. It was created by a royal spellcaster who was awarded honors."

   "I have indeed heard such rumors, you mean..."

Dunn thought of the meaning in Harvey’s words, and no longer maintained a calm gentleman’s demeanor, and asked silently, “Are you saying that besides a novelist, you are a spellcaster? Oh~ you know this is so surprising, originally you wrote It’s unbelievable to have a work like "The Count of Monte Cristo"!" Just after speaking, he realized that he had made a mistake. Dunn looked at Harvey with complicated eyes and apologized: "Please don’t get me wrong, I mean Harvey, you are still young. It’s amazing for anyone to write such a wise literary work at your age."

   Harvey smiled blankly: "Leave aside the novel, the identity of the caster only inherits the family business. The principle of this device involves knowledge of the magic level. I can't explain the principle to ordinary people, but it can explain its function."

  ······

"This can be said to be a new type of drama mode. Different from theatrical performances, this picture presents the story itself. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is like a real story. In order to achieve this effect, I invented the device in front of you. Unlike the stereoscopic projection of the illusion crystal, it can shoot a complete image. Although it is not as real as the stereoscopic projection, it has a unique visual sense, and there are no many shooting restrictions. It can record the vast sea, the mysterious starry sky, and It can be used to record the daily life of a person or an animal."

   "In other words, it is more popular. It is not an expensive luxury, but a commodity."

The word    commodity is enough to arouse the infinite reverie of a chamber of commerce owner. Dunn understands the meaning of the word commodity better than anyone.

   "The captured images can be easily transferred to other illusion crystals. It can express more information and is more practical than projection." As the documentary played, Harvey talked freely, explaining the principles and future of photographic crystals. Dunn sometimes asked questions, sometimes fell into thought, Harvey's explanation did arouse his great interest.

After the explanation, Harvey's tone became solemn: "Mr. Dunn, what do you think if the story of "The Count of Monte Cristo" is filmed with this device? It is the same as the documentary you are seeing now. The film is not "A Sailor's Day", but "The Count of Monte Cristo". How many people do you think are willing to pay a price to watch this film?"

   "The Count of Monte Cristo" is well known by the people of the Barron Kingdom. Such a work will be adapted into a drama and it will surely be full of seats. If it is combined with the new type of drama that Harvey just explained, what magical reaction will it produce?

   Dunn stood up and stared at the dynamic picture projected by the white tablecloth, he saw a storm! Swept the kingdom, no! Even theaters outside of the Kingdom of Barron will be affected by storms! There are unpredictable business prospects.
