Start an adventure from an American TV series

Chapter 41
More than two hours later, a series of vehicles came to Prosperous Town with heavily armed troops, but because of the darkness, they only stationed on the outskirts of the town to establish a line of defense and a temporary garrison.

The next morning, the townspeople who were still in the mall opened the gate and walked out of the mall.

Most of the spiders that hated the sun were gone, and a large number of FBI personnel appeared in the town, including soldiers and scientific researchers, who wanted to find out the origin of these giant spiders, or do some research.

Locke didn't care about these things, and he took Ashley to record a statement.

"Let those FBI people worry about the next thing. I will definitely ask for a long time about this matter, but I have a special channel and I plan to leave earlier. Do you want to come with me?"

"Of course." Ashley said without hesitation, "I have long wanted to leave this town, but my mother..."

"She should be with Chris. I heard that he followed the FBI into the mine to search and found a new gold vein. Perhaps this place will prosper again."

"That has nothing to do with me." Ashley said a little weakly: "It hasn't stopped from yesterday to now. I want to find a place to rest first. You must take me with you when you leave."

"Of course, how could I forget about our princess, but the town hasn't been searched yet, it's locked down, and if you want to rest, you can only camp in the countryside."

Locke said with a smile: "Fortunately, we have the missing mayor Wade who dedicated himself, and the shopping center has special inflatable tents for camping."

Ashley seemed to be in a better mood: "Mayor Wade hasn't been found yet? What a pity, I will pray for him. After a thorough search, the FBI will arrange for the residents of the town to live near the shopping center first. "

Locke nodded: "Thanks for his kindness and generosity, I hope he will be happy in heaven or hell."

The two dealt with it, ate something, set up a tent near the shopping center, yawned, and Ashley fell into the tent.

Locke also slept for a while, and after waking up, he contacted the detective here, met the commander here, brought Ashley and Samantha to meet, and the mother and daughter talked for a while.

Perhaps because she was worried about her mother and younger brother, Ashley, who was planning to leave with Locke at first, finally let Locke leave alone. She said that she would contact Locke again when the family settled down.

What happened, many people want to go home quickly, but the town is not yet completely safe, and the FBI is still searching.

The only good news to support the townspeople is that when Chris followed the FBI's people to search in the mine, he discovered a new vein of minerals, which means that Prosperity Town can re-prosper.

This news meant nothing to Ashley, she didn't want to be tied up in such a small town for the rest of her life at a young age like her mother.

As for the future development of the childhood sweethearts Samantha and Chris, Locke doesn't care, although after the discovery of the gold mine, Chris as the owner is likely to become a rich man, and the residents of the town can live in the middle class. life.

He came to Princeton early and bought a property near the university a month and a half ago.

After all, this is the place where he will live for many years in the future, and Locke has no intention of wronging himself. He prepared the house early and finished the decoration.

Locke, who was on the road, had some repairs in his new residence, and drove to New York early the next morning, contacting Tang Wei who was already on summer vacation.

"I have read your book. "Arcane Throne" has become very popular recently. It seems that you are going to become a well-known author." Tang Wei congratulated Locke.

"Thank you." Thinking of his book, Locke is also in a good mood. As time goes by, the fame of the work gradually spreads, and the potential points also follow. Not willing to use up.

"Speaking of which, you study hard enough." Locke glanced at the desk in the outer hall, where there were various books.

In the past year, except for Locke who occasionally came to New York, Tang Wei spent all his time studying, and his effort was comparable to Dongguo's college entrance examination sprint.

"After all, I can't rely on you all the time. At least I have to be able to become a middle class by myself." Tang Wei said with a smile.

"Middle class, I didn't expect you to believe this?"

"Why don't you believe it!" Seeing the teasing in Locke's eyes, Tang Wei couldn't help but give him a supercilious look.

"This is just a false concept created by capitalists." Locke joked with a smile: "I thought you could figure it out with the education you received in Dongguo.

The property of the bourgeoisie and the proletariat refers to the relationship of possession of the means of production, while the so-called property of the middle class has been secretly replaced by the concept of property.

Owning property does not mean owning assets, so most of the middle class are just proletarians with some money, especially those white-collar workers in the cities.

Compared with the proletariat, they usually live in a better-decorated house, drive a better car, and have better clothes and food. They have no assets of their own and are still working for others in essence. "

Tang Wei: ...

I feel like you've ruined my last good impression of America.

"You don't need to thank me baby." Locke said with a smile: "This world is like this. In fact, everyone can understand it after thinking about it, but everyone chooses to ignore it. After all, people often need to comfort themselves by deceiving themselves. "

The corners of Tang Wei's mouth twitched, and she found that the words made sense. She was really speechless, and finally could only give Locke a hard look: "Well, I know, you, the big capitalist, have been deceiving me all this time. .”

"Then you can choose to talk to me about hundreds of millions of business now, which may make you feel better."

"You can talk about anything you want!" After getting along with Locke for a while, Tang Wei can sometimes keep up with the rich connotations in Locke's words.

……

Since Arcane Throne began to sell well, some companies gradually approached it. After all, the fantasy elements in it are still sufficient, and the plot is suitable for making into a TV series.

However, Locke has no intention of selling copyrights such as film and television and peripherals now. The income from these copyrights is not comparable to the income from simply selling books.

If possible, Locke even plans to invest in filming himself to make a high-quality drama.

Speaking of which, Locke’s favorite American TV series in his previous life was HBO. The difference between this cable network media company and most free TV stations is that it does not rely on advertising fees to survive, but subscription fees.

Even if there are free channels, more and more American families will choose to pay in the future to watch HBO spend huge sums of money to carefully create high-quality high-quality TV series, instead of brainless soap operas on free channels.

HBO is a cable TV network owned by Time Warner, and the IP of Little Wizard is also promoted by Time Warner, but as long as it is a super large media group, it can do similar things.

If you can become an important shareholder, you can initiate a proposal, and promote your own works like a little wizard. At that time, every increase in reputation will represent potential points.
