Chapter 738 Prelude to the Economic Crisis Chapter 739 Saving Hollywood(1/3)

October 10, 1929. This day may be a normal day.

But history will remember this day.

What can make this day recorded in history is not because of some big names, nor because of some big things.

But just because of a horse.

A waste horse called canned food.

On this day, a horse racing competition held in the town of Santia attracted the attention of the people of California.

At the beginning, people just watched the game with a novelty and lively attitude.

They just want to see if a waste horse can run the entire journey, but they just want to see how lonely a waste horse is when racing against those purebred tall horses.

However, they did not expect that this dead horse not only ran the whole journey, but also threw the purebred horses behind and finally won the championship!

They didn't expect that Andre Corleon would give a speech that was as aggressive as a machine gun after the game, and this simple speech would instantly spread in society!

The horse racing started broadcasting on the same day, and people from all over California watched the exciting game in front of TV.

They cheered for the intense and crazy game, and even more for the wonderful performance of canned food.

More people fell into deep thought because of my speech.

On October 11, the front page headline of the Los Angeles Times published an article titled "I can do what can be done, so can I do it!".

This article made the newspaper print three times that day and still out of stock!

"Yesterday, a waste horse won the competition! In this star competition, nine of the ten horses participating in the competition were expensive thoroughbred racers. But the final winner was canned!"

"This horse, which is only 140 cm tall, shocked all the people watching the competition with its running!"

"After the competition, Mr. Corleon gave a short speech to the audience. This speech was only a few minutes long. It is now being written in his own diary. It is posted all over the streets and alleys and published in a prominent position in the newspaper!"

"People are celebrating victory. A victory in a deserted horse. But this victory itself can be a symbol because it represents not just a victory in a competition, but a victory in dreams and a victory in hopes!"

"Compared with more than a hundred years, the world is now very different. More than a hundred years ago, our ancestors carried out the greatest cause with dreams and hopes. Dreams and hopes became their most powerful weapon."

"Today. More than a hundred years later, these beliefs of our ancestors fighting for it have been submerged among us. We have been polished by life and lost our edges, lost our passion, and become numb and indifferent!"

"People living at the bottom speak like maggots. Who can think about their own dreams??"

"It is a waste horse that reminds us. We should not forget that we are descendants of Washington, and reminds us that we should remember the banner of dreams and hopes! Remind us that no matter how good or bad life is, how dull or cold or dark we should remember that cans can do it, and I can do it too!"

"This is what canned food really means to us, this is the whole meaning of our lives!"

This commentary article in the Los Angeles Times expresses the people's hearts.

In addition to the Los Angeles Times, other local media have also made a lot of work in this regard. In their words, canned food has become an absolute star!

The people liked it, and were crazy about the useless horse, they snatched up posters of canned food, and even asked DreamWorks' Third Factory to be able to withdraw from the canned food series of toys and related products for several years.

So Shanlige's third factory fell into a state of overload and chaoticism again.

In addition to focusing on canned food, major media have also made new reports from some media.

The representative of it is the Citizen Daily.

The Citizens warmly praised the can, and at the same time, it also specifically reported that I beat Carrey Rockefeller and published a huge photo.

In the photo, I swung my front and hit Carrey Rockefeller on the face. Carrey Rockefeller's facial features were almost deformed by me, and I leaned back.

The title of this report is very attractive. "Mr. Corleon taught Rockefeller a lesson with his fist on the racecourse."

The article was written in detail, and it was written in detail about why I hit Carrey Rockefeller and what happened before and after. Even the specific position of my fist hit Carrey Rockefeller's face and how Carrey Rockefeller screamed at that time were written vividly, which made me firmly believe that it would be a pity for the author of this report not to write a novel.

At the end of this article, the author wrote in a sarcastic tone: "Carry Rockefeller was beaten up. He was beaten up very badly, and his nose was broken. After being hit by such a fist, Mr. Carrey Rockefeller should be wondering, that is why everyone in the entire racecourse cheered when Mr. Corleon beat him. After being hit by such a fist, Mr. Carrey Rockefeller's father, the famous old Mr. Rockefeller, should also think, that is, why the important task of teaching his son a lesson fell on Mr. Corleon, not on him."

"There is a saying in the West that educates children: learn to be a human being first, and then go out and do things. Almost every one of us has heard of this sentence when we were young. But judging from the performance of Carey Rockefeller, he certainly has never heard of such a sentence."

"In the eyes of everyone, I shot a horse on the field! Regardless of the quality of this horse's character, such an act can only make people think that this person is an inhuman."

"Hollywood is a dream place, a glorious place, and the most respectable place in the whole of America. Under the leadership of DreamWorks, Hollywood's screen has gradually become the temple in the minds of the people. This is a good thing. An unprecedented good thing."

"The direct responsibility lies in the major Hollywood film companies. The actions of major film companies will eventually be the bosses of the film companies."

"Mr. Rockefeller is the boss of Leidianhua Film Company. This is a big company. But his behavior is hard to avoid the scandals that have happened in this big company this year."

"The reason why so many scandals have happened may have something to do with many things. Maybe it has not been much related to Carrey Rockefeller himself. But if the boss of every film company was like Mr. Corleon, would something similar come out?"

"Mr. Corleon taught Mr. Rockefeller a lesson, and a lesson with his fists. This lesson was very good."

I don't know what expressions would be like if Carrey Rockefeller saw in this article, but I know this guy would definitely carefully recall his own scream when I punched him. Many people were very interested in my punch and started a heated discussion.

There are many conclusions, one of which is recognized is: from this punch, the conflict between DreamWorks, Lei Dianhua and the Rockefeller Consortium has been completely public!

In the past, DreamWorks and Rockefeller Consortium celebrated the festival. Although everyone knew it, everyone knew it. On the surface, Hollywood was still harmonious.

However, this year, the conflict between DreamWorks and the Rockefeller consortium behind it has completely surfaced, especially the death of Drari O'Neal and the death of this land fist incident.

This is also good. When everyone meets each other in the future, at least they don’t have to work hard to pretend to be polite.

People from different places have different opinions on this matter. Many people are worried about DreamWorks, but more people are strongly supporting DreamWorks.

In any case, the image of Leidianhua Film Company and Rockefeller Consortium in the eyes of the people is no different from that of the demon.

However, this fist incident also brought many unexpected benefits.

One of them is that after this star horse racing, Santia's horse racing career finally began to become regular, and horse racing experts from California gathered in these places.

Most of these people have their own horses that can compete in the canning competition.

But canned food is no longer a waste horse. Its current identity is simply the new king in the western horse racing world.

The horses that came to participate were divided into many groups, and they had to compete with each other, and only the final winners were eligible to compete with the can.

Santia Racecourse became popular, and the sports channel of Lockett TV Group was also extremely popular. The ratings of the horse racing program on this channel are almost the same as those of the TV series. Coolidge and Edward Nobel are so happy all day long.

Kava and House began training cans wholeheartedly, and they set themselves a very difficult goal: to make cans the most powerful horse racing in the United States.

This goal is really exciting.

But having hope and dreams is also good.

The canned food blew a horse racing storm in the United States.

The Santia Racecourse first attracted outstanding horse racing from California to compete, and gradually, racers from other western states began to compete.

In time, this competition is destined to become the top race for Western Horse Racing.

However, the horse racing industry in the eastern United States seems not interested in the Santia Racecourse. In the eyes of those men, the West is a place where people are busy, and racing horses with us is simply a loss of their value.

On October 15, the weekly magazine "Time" which is widely popular and respected by the American people selected this month's "outstanding people".

On the cover of this issue of the magazine, it is not the boss of a large consortium or a celebrity, but a somewhat funny face in the can.

On the top of the magazine is a line of big words: "It is called can! It is also called hope!"

An outstanding person turned out to be a horse, which is something that has never been done before.

Canned food also set a record.

At the same time, I was also surrounded by various merchants because of canning.

The largest boxing utensil manufacturer in the United States went to great lengths to find me and urged me to shoot a set of advertisements for them.

I was confused by them at that time. I knew nothing about boxing and didn't have many muscles all over my body. How did they ask me to advertise them?

But the answer from these guys was: "Mr. Corleon, your punch to Kerry Rockefeller is so classic and so exciting! Especially the right hook, the posture is so real and unrestrained. You don't know, those boxers are trying their best to imitate. If you advertise for us, our products will definitely sell out!"

I almost fainted on the spot for such a ridiculous explanation.

But later I happily advertised for this boxing utensil manufacturer.

First of all, they gave me $1 million at one time because they paid me a lot of advertising fees. And there were some commissions in the future, which were quite a lot of money, so why didn’t I do it? After receiving the money, I invested all the money into a charity foundation, allowing them to build more orphanages and take good care of those pitiful orphans.

The second reason for accepting advertisements is that in this advertisement, I did not leave the country alone, but also went out at the same time. There are also canned food.

In the advertising album, I was wearing boxing gloves and canned face-to-face image, which was very popular, making the reputation of canned food soar. Later, the merchant simply named several of their series of products "Can Series", and the sales situation was very popular.

The title of "canned food" was then registered as a trademark by us and became the patent of DreamWorks.

Any company and manufacturer using this trademark must pay the trademark fee to DreamWorks, and all of these fees will be donated to the charitable foundation.

People's popularity with canned food has increased significantly, especially for children.

Although these things are busy and unexpected, they are all good things.

But some things are not good.

On October 17th, when Kava and I were discussing how to better arrange Santia's horse racing in the office, Coolidge walked into my office with a nervous look on his face.

Seeing that there were still many people in the office, Coolidge's expression became a little mysterious.

"Calvin, are you doing something?" I asked without stopping to work.

My words led all the eyes of the people in the office to Coolidge.

Coolidge smiled and said, "It's a big deal."

"Big thing? Say, what big thing?" As soon as Coolidge said something big, I immediately put down my work.

Coolidge doesn't tell me the ordinary things, nor does he need to say them, because he can end it himself, and what he told me is definitely a big deal.
To be continued...
