I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

In theory, in 1865 there were already ready-made projection devices.

In 1834, American Horner invented the "movable video disc".

In 1853, on the basis of the invention of Horner, General Von Uchatios of Austria, the original cartoon was shown using slide lanterns.

Then there were two stubborn Yankees, arguing about "whether the hooves of the horse hit the ground when running", and made a bet on this, and finally created the film tape technology.

Of course, it was not until 1896 that the film truly became a cultural and entertainment product for the masses, with the invention of the Vitai projector.

By the time of Empress Dowager Cixi's death, the technology of black-and-white movies had fully matured, and there were as many as 3600 million moviegoers in the United States every week.

This is simply a number that would make any Qing Dynasty person despair.

The [1910s German nostalgic retro movie machine large-scale 35mm film projector] purchased by Zhu Fugui is a product of that era.

However, since he is engaged in the Great Leap Forward of Literature and Art, Zhu Fugui will definitely not start with mimes, but with the gramophone, making sound films that only appeared in the 1920s.

All in all, Zhu Fugui's four-piece movie set: projector, film tape, phonograph, and big screen, is far inferior to the open-air movies in the rural elderly squares in later generations in terms of craftsmanship and projection effect.

Even because the projector is not self-equipped with a speaker, occasionally the sound and picture are out of sync.

But no matter what, Daming's films are already very advanced for this era.

And precisely because of its originality and simplicity, it has a high fault tolerance rate and the equipment is easy to transport.

Zhu Fugui purchased a total of 200 sets of projection equipment, which were shipped to all parts of the country and even overseas by circuit.

Among them, 2 sets of equipment are reserved for Fugui Palace, each of the three halls of Fengdu Grand Theater has 2 sets of equipment, factories and mines are allocated 1-2 sets according to the number of people, each town with a population of over 3 is allocated 50 sets of equipment, and the entire army is allocated [-] sets of equipment .

In addition, there are 2 sets of equipment allocated by the Grand Duchy of Seattle, 2 sets of equipment allocated by the Bear Island military base, and 20 sets allocated by the Japanese region.

Finally, the Secret Service Department of Jinyiwei distributed 50 sets, striving to secretly show them in Jiangnan, North Korea and other places.

As for the Confederacy area, Zhu Fugui estimated that no one would look at Zheng Chenggong's release.

In the future, we can shoot some movies that suit their appetite and can export the values ​​of Ming Dynasty, and then sell them at a high price.

Of course, having said so much, the only one with a premiere on July 7 is the Royal Grand Theater in Fengdu.

This is the benefit of the citizens of the capital. If there are any preferential policies or new gadgets, they will always be the first to enjoy them, and movies are naturally the same.

Chapter 284 Poster, Encounter

In mid-July, students are already on summer vacation.

Because the day when the first emperor ascended the throne and started an uprising was well chosen, the National Day of the Ming students was washed away by the summer vacation.

But for the workers, the 14-day rest from 18 to 5 is as important as the Spring Festival.

On such a day, it is hardest thing to drag the family with you or invite boyfriend and girlfriend to cheer for the Long Live Lord.

Even in Fengdu, which has a Mediterranean climate, it has become hot, and the large ice cubes in the movie theater are worth the price of admission.

ten o'clock in the morning.

Even though Bai Xia'er repeatedly stated that she had never been tanned while walking in the rivers and lakes, but white people in this era do not have the concept of black as beauty, the maid Gillian still persistently put up a parasol for the mistress.

As a native of Xinfengdu, Bai Xia'er has gradually fallen in love with this city.

Although Hangzhou Mansion is also beautiful, it always feels like something is missing.

And the city in front of me is so clean and beautiful, except for the occasional choking soot when the northwest wind blows.

The tranquil yellow pine along the Daming River reminded her of the tea gardens by the West Lake.

And the people here are much cleaner and more decent than the residents of the so-called "paradise on earth".

In short, even without the idle emperor, Bai Xia'er would still fall in love with this city.

And if you want to settle down here, apart from letting that unlucky bastard pay the bill, I'm afraid you have to rely on something called "movie".

Bai Xianv has practiced swordsmanship for 10 years, but it is useless here.

Or you can try to be a female worker in a garment factory?

Bai Xia'er thought of the squinted corners of her eyes when she saw Aunt Lu and Huzi a few days ago, and she kept saying good things about His Majesty Fugui.

That was a look Bai Xia'er had never seen in Jingci Temple.

That's what piety looks like.

"Miss, look at the long queue over there. Our movie is very popular!"

Bai Xia'er lowered her head and patted the maid's head.

She never thought that she would have multiple maids inexplicably, and she was still a foreign maid.

But this maid is really useful, and it will be nice to take care of my father's daily life after staying.

After all, my father drank and ate meat all day long, and if it weren't for the temple's wealth, he wouldn't have been in trouble.

Such a living habit will definitely need someone to take care of in his later years.

And I want to enter the palace to take care of that heartbroken man...

"Miss, miss, let's go to line up, or we won't be able to catch up with the premiere!" Gillian was a little excited, but also a little anxious.

Bai Xia'er nodded, and took out two pieces of colorful paper from her purse.

This is Daming's banknote.

At first, when Bai Xia'er received such banknotes from the film crew, she thought she was being fooled as a foreigner.

After all, in her perception, silver and copper coins are the most reliable things.

Bai Xia'er has never used such a high-end silver ticket.

It was Gillian who told him that Ming's banknotes were as useful as British pounds.

There were speculators from the federal government who wanted to short the Ming banknotes, but the rope used to hang them was old and strong!

In short, in addition to silver dollars, these banknotes are still secured by more than 10 tons of aluminum as credit.

And those aluminum materials were cast into the appearance of the Yin Concubine of the Ming Dynasty.

Concubine Yin...

Bai Xia'er felt an arrow shot in her heart, and the pain was severe.

Even looking at the banknotes in his hand, he felt disgusting.

"Gillian, go buy movie tickets, and spend all the extra money!"

……

Gillian was holding a Daming banknote with a face value of 5 cents, and was a little puzzled by the owner's inexplicable anger.

But instead she was happy.

A movie ticket is 1 dime.

In other words, there is a full 3 cents that can be used to buy snacks.

And a bag of popcorn only costs 2 cents, and an extra-large hot dog costs only 5 cents...

Obviously, the owner of so much food can't finish it, that is to say...

Gillian was suddenly happy.

Even the footsteps became jumpy.

……

In the end, Jillian's shopping plan included a wide lady's straw hat in addition to a load of high-calorie foods that would transform her from freckled teen to freckled fat woman.

This cool hat is European style.

In the all-inclusive Ming Dynasty, barbarian costumes were not rejected, because cultural self-confidence ensured that the mainstream aesthetics would not deviate.

But Jillian didn't buy the straw hat for aesthetics.

On the white wall at the entrance of the Royal Theater hangs a huge poster.

"National Hero Zhu Chenggong".

Bai Xia'er quickly covered her face with a straw hat, but couldn't help staring at the poster like all the other spectators waiting in line.

In the past, there were also posters when performing model plays, but they had never been so large and rich in content.

Due to the limitations of the stage play, the so-called battle is nothing more than three or two actors holding simulated weapons to simulate a few actions, and the naval battle is only a few swings of blue cloth as waves.

But this poster is completely different.

The above is no longer a few simple characters and scenery, but a complete and extremely real picture.

The heroic young hero is dressed in mountain armor, with a long sword out of its sheath, and fights the vicious red-haired devil.

On the side are the city towers burning in the sea of ​​flames, and arrows and projectiles flying overhead like locusts.

In the distance, there are thousands of hectares of waves, and several standard hard-sailed blessing boats besieged a tall western warship.

The bow of the Fuchuan is all painted with a tiger head with teeth and claws, which is majestic and majestic.

The shirtless and strong Fuyong rushed onto the Western warship with a hook and lock jumping gang, and fought hand-to-hand with the foreign soldiers.

The kerosene burned the entire sea surface and sky into crimson.

On the crimson sky, two figures appeared indistinctly.

One of them was the young general.

And the other person is none other than Tian Chuan played by Bai Xia'er.

Blood dripped from the corner of her mouth, her face was as white as paper, and she held the boy in her arms, as if she was in a distant heaven.

Against the background of Huoshaoyun, it shows even more tragic and poignant beauty.

Such a movie poster that is not considered outstanding in later generations, as the design party B, is likely to be beaten back many times.

However, in this era, re-engraving the history of 200 years ago on giant posters has created a shocking effect.

Even Bai Xia'er, who participated in all this personally, couldn't help feeling a little bit of anticipation when she saw this poster.

As expected of the Son of Heaven, even if you make things out of business, they seem to be very interesting...

"Please show your movie ticket! Thank you!"

"Oh well!"

The sudden female voice interrupted Bai Xia'er's wild thoughts, and she took out two movie tickets from her pocket in a panic.

The ticket inspector skillfully uses a punch to punch two holes in the movie ticket to indicate that the movie ticket has been used. After that, the movie ticket can be kept by the holder as a souvenir.

With the help of the posters, it was originally just to cheer for Long Live and to respond to the imperial court's call to participate in cultural activities. Now many people are really eager to see this big show called a movie.

Bai Xia'er followed the flow of people and walked into the No. 2 screening hall.

Gillian followed with a load of treats.

"Oh!"

With too much popcorn and gluten to buy, Gillian's vision is limited and she bumps into a tall man with a female companion.

"Excuse me!"

The man and his female companion quickly turned around and squatted down together to help Gillian pick up the food.

According to the rumors, as long as the food is picked up within three seconds after falling on the ground, it will still be clean.

Of course, because the paper bags were unopened, not much food was actually spilled.

Gillian also lay on the ground in embarrassment, and suddenly she felt vaguely familiar with the guy who was still wearing a mask this summer.

During the days of visiting the theater, she saw him more than once.

"you are……"

"Shh!"

Zhu Fugui quickly made a silence gesture, and then said in a low voice, "Keep quiet!"

Returning all the food paper bags to their original owners, Zhu Fugui stood up and cupped his fists at Bai Xia'er who hid her expression under the brim of her wide hat: "Miss Bai, it's really a fate!"

"Fugui, who is this?"

Yin Susu, who also made a disguise at the side, asked.
