Chapter 25 Apple
The top priority now is to get the film approved and then find a distributor.
"I'll take care of this!"
Jenny volunteered.
So, this job was handed over to her, while others were waiting for the film to be released with great anticipation.
Although it is a student film, no matter who it is, everyone hopes that they can make a work that the audience is looking forward to, especially Catherine.
Throughout February and even March, a group of people spent the whole of February and even March in a mood of anticipation.
Catherine looked at herself in front of the mirror, and then let out a long sigh.
The filming of the film was temporarily over and life returned to normal, but Catherine always felt that her body began to undergo some subtle changes since that day.
For example, she was looking at the two hills with a low altitude.
It's not because of the two piles of flesh on the chest itself, but because whenever a companion touches it, a strange feeling rushes up from the lower body and then envelopes Catherine herself.
The bottom part seemed to be squirming, making her legs sore and weak, and then her whole body lost the ability to resist.
She suddenly realized that her body seemed too sensitive.
She began to rub her legs together, and the stimulating feeling began to sweep through her body.
It's exciting down there.
"Am I a legendary weapon? Hehe..."
Catherine smiled to herself.
At this time, the phone in the room rang, but she was the only one at home, so Catherine wrapped herself in a bath towel and walked out.
"Kate! It's completely done!"
Over there was Jenny's excited voice.
"What?"
"The video has been reviewed, but..."
"Say it."
It would be great if it can pass the review.
"But a lot of scenes were cut."
"What?!"
Catherine jumped to her feet.
"You know, those Catholics."
The film classification system in the United States began to take shape in 1968, and now, the thing that restricts the release of movies is something else-the "Hays Code".
This is a film that was born in 1930 when the Catholic publisher Martin Quigley and the Jesuit priest Daniel Lord drafted a code of ethics for film production to follow.
, the Motion Picture Production Code (motion-picture-production-code, also known as the "Hays Code"), which has been criticized a lot by filmmakers.
This thing is controlled by Catholics. In 1957, after the French-language film "And-God-Created-Woman" was released in New York State, Catholic forces in a certain area of the state tried to use money to persuade an exhibitor to cancel it.
After their request was rejected by the exhibitor regarding the schedule of the "condemned" film, they launched a six-month boycott of the theater.
They even launched a parade. Catherine had seen it before, but she didn't care at the time. But now, this matter finally fell on her.
"Damn Christians."
My father used to believe in Judaism, and my mother used to be an Orthodox Christian, but after they got married, they both became atheists.
"Fortunately, my grandfather tried his best to negotiate...Fortunately, they didn't seem to take a B-level movie seriously."
A blessing in misfortune.
If this was a commercial blockbuster, the number of scenes that should be cut would probably be tripled or even quintupled.
"The distributor has also been confirmed. It's Columbia Pictures. How about it? Do we need to let them distribute it?"
"no problem."
Columbia Pictures, which will later be renamed Columbia Pictures and Columbia TriStar, is a well-known distributor in the United States.
Although I don’t know how Jenny found them, it is obvious that this has shown the possible success of her film in the future.
"Kate, are you free next week?"
Jenny asked suddenly.
"Yes." Catherine answered.
"That's great, Kate. It's my birthday next week and I hope you can come over."
"no problem."
Of course I go to my friend’s birthday.
After hanging up the phone, Catherine began to think about the TV again.
Television has been popularized in American families since the 1950s. Compared with the increasingly popular television, movies have become more and more "niche" and their audience groups have gradually differentiated. In the past, millions of people watched movies at the same time at a similar time.
The collective experience of watching a movie is difficult to replicate. In 1948, the average number of viewers per week in the United States was still as high as 80 million. Before and after the film rating system was enacted, this number had dropped sharply to 20 million. At the same time,
Accordingly, television quickly replaced movies as America's favorite family entertainment in the 1950s and 1960s.
And now, it is time for television to become popular.
Integrated circuit TV can be said to be a reform of color TV. Now, she is eager to sell her own integrated circuit TV.
Catherine had already thought about it all. The reason why she chose a TV game console instead of developing separate game consoles like Wii, PS3, and Xbox360 like later generations was also very simple.
——She wants to eat up the TV market as well.
We need to have an overall view and strategic vision. This sentence is not just a saying.
The difference between men and women can be said to be here, at least for the most part.
Although the gender has been changed, the overall view and the things left over from the previous life have not changed.
In the 1960s, American technology was developing by leaps and bounds. As for televisions, with the popularization of color television programs, color televisions began to become more popular, and the entire television market more than doubled.
How can we eat in such a big market?
The answer is simple - bundling strategy.
Game-TV is Catherine’s trump card.
This is what Bill Gates did back then. His IE browser fiercely occupied a large amount of the market with its bundling and free strategies. What Catherine is doing now is exactly the same as the future richest man in the world.
Now is 1961, which is the beginning of a period of economic growth in the United States that Western economists call the "golden age." After the development of the "golden age", the U.S. gross domestic product has grown from 523.3 billion U.S. dollars in 1961.
to $1,063.4 billion in 1971.
After that, came the destruction of the Bretton Woods system and the first oil crisis. Then came China's reform and opening up and the second oil crisis...
Those things are still a bit far away from Catherine, but the golden age of America has arrived. If you can seize this golden age, you will be able to rise to the top.
The "Hays Code" will continue to be rampant for at least another 7 years. Catherine knows that during these 7 years, the movies she shoots will fall short of the box office she expects, unless she turns this code into a
History. But that's not now at least.
So Catherine began to eagerly seek other solutions.
Television strategy is one of them.
And can’t I go and make a TV series? Now is the time when TV is booming.
"By the way, if you set up a TV company... what should it be called?"
Catherine thought for a moment.
"Well, let's call it apple!"
I don’t know what will happen to Jobs, who is still a young man now... Who cares, what does this have to do with me?
…
The contract finally arrived, hoo hoo ~
By the way, the A-cup is too small. What will happen when it grows up?
