"Do you really want to make such a cruel movie?"
After reading the script given by Josiah, the Knight Of The White Thorn commented that it was' cruel. '
Even a horror movie like The Shining, the Knight Of The White Thorn did not comment on it as cruel.
"Of course. Otherwise, why would I let you choose the actors?"
Josiah had not been to the White Thorn Theatre for almost a month. Nowadays, the theatre had released many new movies, most of which were produced by Falosi. Only one or two were funded by the Knight Of The White Thorn.
Today, when the Knight Of The White Thorn learned that Josiah was looking for him to make a new movie, he was so happy that he asked all the workers in the theatre to welcome Josiah.
However, after the Knight Of The White Thorn finished reading the script, he found that he could not hide the sad expression on his face at all.
"Using a child's perspective to describe the cruelty of the world." The Knight Of The White Thorn could only sigh in the end.
The Boy In Striped Pajamas On Earth, this movie was set in World War II and described the story of the Jews in a German concentration camp.
However, this was a fairytale to describe the cruel history. The protagonist was an eight-year-old child of a high-ranking German officer. Due to his father's transfer, he lived in a manor not far from a concentration camp.
Coincidentally, he ran to the vicinity of the camp and met a captive child.
In the end, the naive boy was invited by his friend to wear the same prison uniform as the captive and walked into the camp.
From beginning to end, the boy thought that everything was just a game. The prisoner uniform was also regarded as a 'striped pajamas' by him. The final ending was cruel.
The boy was also treated as a prisoner and was executed together with his friend.
When Josiah watched this movie, he thought, 'There's no reason for the screenwriter to be so crazy as to kill two children who are less than ten years old.'
In the end, he really did make a move.
The plot of the movie was not exciting, but it left a very deep impression on Josiah. In a sense, it was also the reason why Josiah hated disputes.
"Let's start casting, Knight Of The White Thorn … We don't have much time."
Josiah made some slight changes to the plot. The protagonist became a child of the Iron Nation's nobility, and the Central Camp became the Iron Nation's quarantine zone.
"Mr. Josiah, you look very happy."
The Knight Of The White Thorn was still immersed in the discomfort of the movie when he noticed the smile on Josiah's face.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't control myself. Right now, I can't help but want to see … the scene after this movie is screened in the Iron Nation." Josiah said.
"It's being shown in the Iron Nation? Mr. Josiah, the only cities in the Iron Nation that have cinemas are Ossenburg and the capital. The other cities don't have cinemas. "
The Knight Of The White Thorn told Josiah this unfortunate news.
The progress of the Magic Net was limited by the World Tree, so the Iron Nation could only rely on the World Tree's crystals to build internet cafes.
Although there were no restrictions on cinemas, Empress Yekana had no intention of importing movies on a large scale. She only wanted to build a cinema in the capital, and the one in Ossenburg was built by a Falosi businessman.
"This is a business opportunity. Don't those Falosi people want to build cinemas in other countries?"
Josiah handed the management of the cinema to the Knight Of The White Thorn, and the expansion of the cinema was done by the Falosi people. Their country was more than happy to help Josiah spread the movie around the world.
"I heard from the wife of one of the Falosi nobles that … the Iron Nation is too difficult to communicate with, so they first set their target on the coastal countries. Currently, many cities in the coastal countries have cinemas built by the Falosi," the Knight Of The White Thorn said.
"This is a problem. It's probably too late to build a cinema in the Iron Nation now." Josiah thought for a moment and finally came up with a solution. "Why don't we just make the movie completely free this time?"
"Completely … free?"
The Knight Of The White Thorn was once an actor and screenwriter who was determined to devote himself to art and did not care about money. In the end, his theater was facing the risk of being bought by others in the industry, and he had to sleep on the streets.
Fortunately, Josiah helped him in the end.
"An open-air movie. Let's just treat it as a public service announcement."
Josiah did not expect the movie to bring him much box office. Josiah only used the movie as a long stick to hit the heads of those who tried to … incite hatred.
"You mean putting the stage outside the theater is a free performance … I have a lot of experience in this when I was in the Falosi Academy of Arts." The Knight Of The White Thorn understood what Josiah wanted to do this time.
"Let's shoot the movie first, then we can discuss this. But … about the coastal countries, how many cinemas do the Falosi people have opened in the coastal countries?"
Dealing with the relationship between the Land of Frost and the Iron Nation was only a side mission for Josiah. The real main mission was the location of the tortoise in the distant sea.
"This happened nearly half a year ago. The king of the coastal countries relaxed the qualifications of foreign merchants to buy land, and the Falosi took this opportunity to build cinemas everywhere in the coastal countries. But recently, I heard from my friend that … the situation in the coastal countries is not right." The Knight Of The White Thorn said with some worry.
"Not right?"
For some reason, Josh felt as though he had heard something called a conspiracy again.
"Yes, it's just that recently, fishermen and alchemy factory workers have begun to appear on the streets collectively to protest. This situation has occurred in several cities … although they have been suppressed."
The Knight Of The White Thorn did not know much about these political matters, and of course, Josiah did not know either. Just the words "protest" and "suppression" were enough to make Josiah think of one thing … Revolution.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Find all the actors in your troupe and prepare to cast."
"I'll go now …" The Knight Of The White Thorn quickly left the room.
Josiah found a sofa and sat down.
The situation in this world was changing, and Josiah could clearly feel that … what the judges were doing might not be that simple.
The hatred between the Iron Nation and the Land of Frost, and the social class revolution in the coastal countries?
"Reyek, are you from the coastal countries?"
Josiah sent a message to the leader of the Yaferk Snake. Josiah had been paying attention to the situation of the Iron Nation and the Frost Nation, but the coastal countries … Josiah could only watch from the side.
"In the past, I was just an ordinary mercenary and singer." Reyek quickly replied to a message to Josiah.
"Recently in this country … do you feel that there is anything abnormal?" Josiah asked.
"Abnormal? This is a country that is about to die, and the disease on its body has already begun. "
Reyek might have been a singer for a long time, but when he described it, there was a hint of a poetic feeling.
"Disease? Are you referring to the revolution of the civilian class or the capital class? The capital class means … "
Josiah originally wanted to send this message, but after thinking about it, he deleted it because Josiah no longer had the energy to care about this unrelated country.
"Ah … What a headache! Is this a historical necessity? "
