Blooming America

The most urgent task now is to pass the review of the film and then find a distributor.

　　 "I will take care of this!"

　　 Jenny volunteered.

　　 So, the job was handed over to her, and the others waited for the film to be released with anticipation.

　　 Although it is a student film, no matter who it is, I hope I can shoot a work that the audience expects, especially Catherine.

　　 Throughout February, or even March, a group of people spent this way in a mood of anticipation.

　　 Catherine looked at herself in front of the mirror, and then sighed long.

　　 The filming ended temporarily and life returned to daily life, but Catherine always felt that since that day, her body began to undergo some subtle changes.

　　, for example, the two hills that are not high in elevation that she is watching now.

　　 Watching the bigger and bigger breasts, Catherine was very distressed.

　　 "Anyway, as long as you don't have a big chest and brainlessness."

　　 Catherine laughed mockingly.

　　 At this time, the phone in the room rang, but she was the only one in the house. Catherine wrapped a towel and walked out.

　　 "Kate! It's all done!"

　　 There is Jenny's excited voice.

"what?"

　　 "The movie has been reviewed, but..."

　　 "Let's talk."

　　 It would be nice to pass the review.

　　 "But many shots have been cut."

"what?!"

　　 Catherine jumped up.

　　 "You know, those Catholics."

　　 The American film classification system began to take shape in 1968, and now, the thing that restricts the release of movies is another thing-the "Hays Code."

This is a regulation drafted by Catholic publisher Martin-Quigley and Jesuit priest Daniel-Lord on the ethics of film production. It was born in 1930. , "Motion-Picture-Pro-duction-Code" (also known as "Hays Code"), which has been criticized by filmmakers.

This thing is controlled by Catholics. In 1957, after the French 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. The schedule of this "condemned" film, after their request was rejected by the exhibitor, launched a six-month boycott of the theater.

　　 They even launched a parade. Catherine had seen it before, but she didn't care about it at the time. And now, this matter finally fell on her.

　　 "Damn Christian."

　　 Dad used to believe in Judaism, and my mother used to be an Orthodox Christian, but both of them became atheists after they got married.

　　 "Fortunately, my grandfather used to negotiate as much as possible... Fortunately, they didn't seem to have a B-level film in their eyes."

　　 Fortunately in misfortune.

　　 If this is a commercial blockbuster, the number of shots that should be cut may be tripled, or even five-fold.

　　 "The distributor has also been determined, it is Columbia Pictures, how about it, do you need to let them distribute it?"

"no problem."

　　 Columbia Pictures will be renamed Columbia Pictures and Columbia Samsung in the future. It is a well-known distributor in the United States.

　　 Although I don’t know how Jenny found them, it is clear that this has already explained the possible future success of her film.

　　 "Kate, are you free next week?"

　　 Jane asked suddenly.

　　 "Yes," Catherine replied.

　　 "That's great, Kate, I have my birthday next week, and I hope you can come over too."

"no problem."

　　My friend’s birthday, of course I want to go.

　　 After hanging up, Catherine began to think about TV again.

　　 The popularity of television in American households since the 1950s. Compared with the increasingly popular TV, movies have become more and more "niche", and their audience groups have gradually divided. The past group experience of tens of thousands of people watching the same film at similar times has been difficult to reproduce. In 1948, the average number of viewers per week in the United States was still as high as 80 million, but before and after the promulgation of the film classification system, the number had dropped sharply to 20 million. Correspondingly, television quickly replaced movies as the favorite of American home entertainment in the 1950s and 1960s.

　　 And now, it's time for TV to become popular.

　　 Integrated circuit TV can be said to be a reform of color TV. Now, she desperately wants to sell her own integrated circuit TV.

　　 Catherine has already considered everything. The reason why she chose a video game console instead of developing a separate game console like Wii, PS3, and XBOX360 like later generations is also very simple.

　　—She wants to eat the TV market together.

　　 To have a big picture and a strategic vision, this sentence is more than just talking.

　　 The difference between men and women can be said to be here, at least for most of them.

　　 Although the gender has been changed, this overall view, as well as the things left over from the previous life, has not changed.

　　 In the 1960s, American technology developed by leaps and bounds. In the TV sector, it was shown that with the popularization of color TV programs, color TV began to become popular, and the entire TV market more than doubled.

　　 Such a big market, UU reading www.uukanshu. How to eat com?

　　 The answer is simple-the bundling strategy.

　　GAME-TV is Catherine's killer.

　　 Bill Gates did that back then. His IE browser relied on the bundling and free strategy to fiercely occupy a large number of markets. What Catherine is doing now is exactly the same as the world's richest man in the future.

　　 It is 1961, and it is the beginning of a period that western economists call the "golden age" in American economic growth. After the development of the "golden age", the gross national product of the United States went from 523.3 billion U.S. dollars in 1961 to 1,063.4 billion U.S. dollars in 1971.

　　 After this, it was the destruction of the Bretton Woods system and the first oil crisis. Then there is China's reform and opening up and the second oil crisis...

　　 Those things are still far from Catherine, but the golden age of the United States has arrived. If you can grasp this golden age, you can rise to the top.

"The Code of Hayes" will be rampant for at least another 7 years. Catherine knows that during these 7 years, the movies she made will be far behind the box office she expects, unless she makes this code in advance. history. But at least not now.

　　 So Catherine began to desperately want to find another way out.

　　TV strategy is one of them.

　　 And can’t you go make a TV show yourself? Now is the time for television to flourish.

　　 "By the way, if you set up a TV company...what should it be called?"

　　 Catherine thought for a while.

　　 "Well, let's call it Apple!"

　　 I don’t know what will happen to Jobs, who is still Xiaozhengtai now... What does it have to do with him?
