After the audience dispersed, Mag waited on his seat for a while before getting up and taking Irina and the others towards the backstage.
"Spectator, the exit is over here." A staff member stepped forward with a smile, ready to guide them in the direction, with a somewhat wary look in his eyes.
"We are..." Mag was about to explain.
"They are my friends." A voice came from behind. Vicky walked over with a smile, looked at Mag and said, "Mr. Hades, long time no see."
"Captain." The staff looked at Vicki and nodded slightly, then turned and left.
Mag thought about the last time they met a few days ago, but still smiled and praised: "The theater is great, and the performance is also great. It is worthy of the title of the strongest opera troupe on the Nolan continent."
"It's boring to compete with an opera troupe like Macca for first place." Vicki shrugged slightly, but her smile became a little thicker, "Go to my office."
"Okay." Mag nodded, and the group followed Vicki to her office.
Vicki brought food to the two little guys and asked them to go aside to eat and play. She formally greeted Irina and then sat down opposite Mag.
"I didn't expect to achieve the full house achievement so quickly. You chose to get more money to renovate the theater first. It was indeed a wise choice." Mag smiled.
"Really? I even regret it in my gut now. If I had chosen to retain a certain share of the picture book sales, the income would have far exceeded the previous buyout price." Vicki smiled, but there was no look of regret on her face.
"It's true. The picture book "Miss Black Cat" should become a classic. Let's set a small goal of selling one million copies." Mag nodded seriously.
Vicki's expression froze, and she really felt a little distressed now.
"By the way, I'm here this time to talk to you about the demonic copyright of "Miss Black Cat"." Mag continued.
"Shadow?" Vicki looked confused.
"In the future, I may film "Miss Black Cat" into a dynamic picture using a photo stone, and then broadcast it to the outside world for a fee. After all, this is your story, so I plan to obtain your authorization first." Mag explained.
"This... this! Isn't this a movie?!" Vicki exclaimed in shock.
"It turns out that the underground city also calls this a movie." Mag thought thoughtfully. It seems that the development of science and technology often has something in common.
"What's a movie?" Mag asked.
"Um..." Vicki muttered, she was shocked by Mag's too advanced thinking.
After all, there is no electricity in this world, and steam engines are just in the development stage and have not yet been used on a large scale. Mag actually wants to make a movie.
And the most important thing is that he also found a profit point-watching movies and charging money.
Isn’t this the plan to build a cinema?
Cinemas still exist in fifth-tier underground cities, but first- and second-tier cities have been replaced by a large number of popular holographic light and shadow warehouses. Even some light and shadow glasses can provide a better viewing experience than ordinary movie theaters.
But to build a movie theater on Nolan Continent is... outrageous!
"Although some content can be photographed and preserved with photo stones, the resolution is limited, and the shooting techniques and angles are extremely limited. You can only shoot with one shot to the end, without any mistakes in the middle..." Vicki said As I said this, I suddenly realized that this was very suitable for filming live opera performances.
Just fix the photo stone in the best position in the auditorium, and then shoot the whole process from the opening to the end of the opera, without editing or considering the camera position.
It's just that this is an opera, not a movie.
"I hired professionals to renovate a set of equipment. This is the shooting equipment. The shooting effect of the photo stone has been enhanced, and the recording and pausing can be precisely controlled. The storage space has also been improved. This is the playback equipment. The photo stone is placed on In the groove, you can read the captured content, and perform simple editing on it, intercept the clips you need, and splice them together..."
Vicky looked at the series of equipment that Mag took out and listened to his endless narration. She was already dumbfounded.
"Does this...do you want to be so hardcore?!"
"Not only did they build a set of shooting equipment, but they also built a player and editing software?"
"And...this is magic? Magic!"
She felt like there was a groove stuck in her throat, and she couldn't spit it out quickly.
"The current equipment is relatively simple, but it is still enough for simple shooting." Mag smiled and looked at Vicki, who had her mouth open for a long time and couldn't close it, and clicked on the player.
What was playing on the player screen was a short plot about an ugly duckling and Heitan, the mean-beaked parrot from the magic potion shop next door. The content was not interesting, but Mag showed some practical functions and methods such as scene switching, camera tracking, and screen editing. .
After Vicki read it, she was silent for a long time, then looked at Mag and said seriously: "I have two ideas in my mind right now."
"What?"
"You are a super genius, or... you also sneaked out of the dungeon." Vicky stared at Mag's eyes, as if she wanted to see through him.
"Who do you think I am?" Mag looked into her eyes with a smile.
Vicki thought carefully for a while and said: "The former."
"Why are you so sure?"
"If you come from the dungeon, there will be more and better alternatives. Secondly, if you come from the dungeon, you will only stay away from me instead of bringing these things in front of me." Vicki Said, "You are a genius, at least in many ways."
"Would it be hypocritical if I were polite?"
"Yes."
"Then do you think that with this set of equipment, it is possible to move "Miss Black Cat" from the opera stage to the Phantom?" Mag asked with a smile.
“Are you going to film The Phantom of the Opera , or are you going to verbalize the opera?”
"I think a dramatic performance will be easier to get out of the circle than an opera." Mag said.
Vicki thought carefully for a while, nodded and said: "If you really plan to film "Miss Black Cat", then I have three requirements."
"you say."
"First of all, I have to choose the actors; secondly, I have to be the screenwriter; and finally, I have to be the director." Vicki said.
Good guy, this is going to be written, directed and acted by oneself!
Mag nodded without thinking too much: "Okay."
"So happy?" Vicki was stunned for a moment.
"Actually, I don't know much about these aspects. If I leave it to professionals, I will obviously do better." Mag smiled and said: "And I can also guarantee that I will only provide money and will not interfere in any way during the filming process. .”
This is really an excellent investor!
Vicki's eyes brightened a bit when she looked at Mag.
"Then we can start talking about the sharing, or are you willing to buy out this time?" Mag continued.
