Of course, the main reason was that Meg had promised to make Barbara the female lead in a movie in the future.
She had even thought about what to film. It was going to be "The Boring Day of the Princess."
She wanted the whole world to see how a real princess would wake up in a 500 square meter bed and be dressed by hundreds of maids. Even the floor of the toilet was studded with gems, and it was all lit by luminous pearls.
After supper, Meg asked Barbara to engrave arrays on the three sets of equipment before letting her go back to rest.
"Go back to sleep. I'll give you a day off tomorrow. You can sleep until the sky turns dark." Meg looked at her gently.
Barbara was twisting her sore wrist. Her eyes lit up when she heard Meg's words. She was touched. "Boss, you finally found your conscience."
"What bad intentions could the boss have?" Meg's smile became even gentler. He opened the door for her. "Go back to the dorm and sleep. You've worked hard these days."
"Okay." Barbara nodded and turned to walk out of the door.
But when she reached the door, she suddenly stopped and looked back at Meg. "Boss, is tomorrow a day off?"
"Yes, sleep well." Meg closed the door with a smile.
"Bang!"
The door was obviously kicked. Luckily, it was sturdy and didn't move at all.
"You black-hearted capitalist!" Barbara shouted angrily outside. Looking at the motionless door, she stomped her feet and went back to sleep angrily.
She was so sleepy that she couldn't be bothered to argue with him. .
"You tricked Barbara into working for you again?" Irina came down in her thin white pajamas as she smiled at Mag, who was tidying up the photostones on the table like they were his treasures.
"I prepared supper for her. It's not a free meal," Meg said with a serious face.
"What are you doing with these things?" Irina looked at the things in Meg's hands and asked. Meg had been busy for several days.
"I'm planning to shoot a movie. Oh, it's powered by magic. It should be called Magic Movie." Meg pointed the camera in his hand at Irina and pressed the record button.
"Demon Shadow? What's that? "Irina asked curiously.
"It's to record the scene in the real world with a Shadow Recording Stone, and then play it through a player," Meg explained simply.
"What's so strange about that? Isn't that the function of the Shadow Recording Stone? "Irina was puzzled.
"No, if it's purely recording and broadcasting, it's indeed no different from the Shadow Recording Stone's functions. It's just that the functions have been optimized.
Magic Film wasn't just about recording images. It was also an art of light and shadow. It had extremely high requirements for shooting angles, scenes, and lighting.
Of course, the most important thing was that it was used to tell stories, and not to record daily life. It was just like a picture book, using images to tell stories, "Meg explained.
Irina pondered for a while, and said, "For example … using the Shadow Recording Stone to record Miss Black Cat's opera performance?"
Meg was surprised at Irina's ability to understand. He nodded with a smile, and said, "Mm-hmm, that's the right idea. It's probably to move Miss Black Cat's opera performance from the stage to the real world, and let the story happen in a real big house. Then, use the Shadow Recording Stone to record the entire performance, and turn it into a more realistic story."
"That sounds interesting." Irina nodded thoughtfully. However, she still couldn't understand, and asked, "So, why do you want to shoot a movie?"
"To add some excitement to the boring daily entertainment of the people of the Norland Continent," Meg said with a smile.
"Speak human language."
"I intend to set up magic cinemas in all the big cities of the Norland Continent. To watch a magic film, you have to sell tickets to enter. Let's say a ticket is sold for 100 copper coins. A magic film that can accommodate 100 people can earn 10,000 copper coins. Moreover, a magic film can be played in different cinemas for a long period of time.
In the future, there might be more outstanding directors joining the ranks of the magic film industry, making this industry flourish. I, who have control over the movie broadcasting channels, will be the biggest beneficiary, "Meg said honestly.
Of course, he was too embarrassed to say that he wanted to become famous.
"You're indeed worthy of your reputation." Irina looked at Meg with a complicated expression.
"You can take a look at the imaging results after we've improved it." Meg turned off the camera, took out the Shadow Recording Stone, pressed it into the player, turned it on, and clicked on play.
Irina's image appeared in the 55-inch player. The resolution was comparable to 1080p. Her hair was clearly visible, and the details were full. The reproduction of her voice was also very high.
"It can actually show my beauty so clearly?" Irina looked at the image on the player in shock. She actually felt like she was looking into a mirror.
"This is the charm of technology." Meg smiled like a tech geek.
…
"Captain! Our night tickets have been sold out for two days in a row! Moreover, 60% of the tickets for tomorrow's morning show have been sold out. I reckon tomorrow's morning show will be full as well! " Old Mi said excitedly as he walked into the captain's office, and looked at Vicky, who was bent over her desk writing a script.
"Be more serious. We have a fan club now." Vicky looked up at him, and couldn't hide the smile on her face.
"I … I'm just too excited. Our troupe has never fought such a rich battle before." Old Mi chuckled. He looked at Vicky and said, "Also, captain, we've all reached a consensus. We don't want to take a day off every week. So many people like us, so we should perform for them more often. We don't want to take a day off."
Vicky's face immediately darkened. She said firmly, "No way. I set the rule of taking a day off every seven days. Everyone has to follow it."
Old Mi didn't expect Vicky to reject him so decisively. He scratched his head and said, "Captain, we're just scared of being poor. We have so many people now. If they feel that we're neglecting them, they might stop coming in the future. That would be terrible."
Vicky frowned. She looked at Old Mi and said, "That's enough. They shouldn't be asleep yet. Go and call them to the conference room. I want to have a few words with everyone."
Old Mi opened his mouth, but swallowed his words in the end. He agreed, and quickly went out to find them.
Not long after, everyone from the Black Cat Song Troupe arrived at the conference room.
Vicky looked at everyone and said with a smile, "I've heard everyone's thoughts from Old Mi. Our troupe has always had a full house these past few days, and everyone still hasn't gotten used to it yet."
"Yeah. I was a little dazed when I heard the applause from below the stage."
"When we were leaving the stage, there was even a girl who grabbed my hand and cried. She said that I acted well."
"Hehe, that was such a good feeling."
Everyone laughed. They were all quite happy.
