But unfortunately, in this era, in 1894, Los Angeles was just a small town.

Moreover, after the invasion of the 338E Division, this town, like many other cities in California, was demolished and rebuilt in the ruins... Of course, during the reconstruction process, a large number of congressmen and government staff in Los Angeles were infiltrated by the Black Gang.

.

It can be regarded as falling under Long Hao's "clip".

The main reason why Los Angeles became a vassal city of the Alchemy Kingdom is that the funds required for its reconstruction come from the loan from Beihai Bank. That is to say, if Long Hao is unhappy, he can completely demolish Los Angeles without having to blame any laws

responsibility.

The construction speed of Los Angeles is not inferior to San Francisco. In contrast, because it lacks a lot of external attention, it can be transformed drasticly.

Long Hao walked on the newly built streets of Los Angeles, smelling the natural fragrance of flowers beside him, enjoying the green all over his eyes, and said to the drizzle: "Drizzle, do you know why we are coming to Los Angeles?"

Xiyu and Xiao Ke were originally Jiao Buli Meng, but with the release of DMG power blocks, Ke Mitong was left in San Francisco as the main force in the experiment of mutated alchemy creatures, and was responsible for assisting Daimler in dealing with all the failures of power blocks.

After all, power blocks are new things and it is impossible to have no problems at all.

Long Hao values ​​power blocks more than cars, so Ke Mitong stays mainly because Long Hao means.

"I don't know!"

Xiyu replied heartlessly, "But the air here is very good, I like it."

After staying in the industrialization for a long time, Drizzle yearned for and admired the city like Los Angeles, which advocated nature.

"You are still unwilling to think too much."

Long Hao knew Xiyu's lazy temperament. After laughing and scolding, he said to himself: "This place carries another idea, a long-standing idea... another huge industry is about to emerge in Los Angeles!"

"Another huge...industry?"

The drizzle blinked her big eyes, full of curiosity.

"Yes, this industry will make the world crazy, will make the world focus on Los Angeles, and will create countless stars for people to pursue..."

"Oh, Master. Are you talking about the Football League? Oh, is this the headquarters of the Football League?"

The drizzle suddenly came to an end.

"No..."

Long Hao laughed silently, and it turned out that his description had such ambiguity: "It's not the football league, but the movies! Los Angeles will be the cradle of movies and the holy place for movie stars to worship!"

Movie?

The drizzle was confused. But she quickly threw this confusion behind her: Hey, no matter what the movie is, as long as she can follow the young master, she will be happy everywhere!

Seeing Xiyu asking what the "movie" was unconsciously asked, Long Hao felt a little bored, but soon he walked into a pastoral Chinese restaurant. There was a pair of French brothers waiting for him.

The Lumiere brothers, the older brother is 32 years old this year, and the younger brother is exactly 30 years old, which is the golden age for achieving his career.

When the two saw Long Hao coming in, they quickly stood up.

These brothers have the typical Western nose, but they look like a very kind pair of people.

It looks like an Australian koala bear!

Xiyu looked at the Lumiere brothers, and a sentence suddenly popped up in his mind.

Suddenly, she couldn't help laughing.

"Snow Rain, go outside and guard me. I'll talk to you alone."

Long Hao sent away the drizzle and sat down with a smile: "Come on, don't be restrained, sit together, how about it? Come from France, are you still used to living here?"

"Very good, very good, America is more beautiful than we thought!"

The Lumiere brothers sat down cautiously. They used to help in their father's photo studio, and they were walking in France, and suddenly they sat face to face with a world's most legendary figure in recent years.

My heart was pounding and I could hardly control myself and was about to jump out!

"The United States is not all beautiful, but Los Angeles in the west should be beautiful and even more beautiful in the future! Because it will realize your dreams, haha, and it is also my dream!"

Long Hao smiled and picked up the menu: "Let's have a meal first, and chat while eating. This restaurant is very good and it makes authentic Chinese food! I think it's not inferior to your foie gras and snails."

While they were ordering food and having dinner, let’s briefly introduce the Lumiere brothers.

These brothers are not a great scholar, but they have a resounding title, the father of modern film.

In fact, it would be better to change this title to "Inventor of Modern Film". Of course, the invention here does not refer to the technology that forms movies, because this technology has long been invented by Edison and obtained a patent.

Think about it, movies are actually the result of rapid playback of continuous photos. Now that the camera is used by reporters, the birth of the movie is just a problem of "turning around" the idea, and it is natural to calculate it.

And the person who makes this "turning" angle bigger is the Lumiere brothers!

They are different from Edison. Edison believes that movies are a process of self-entertainment. He thinks that movies should be a leisure game that smiles foolishly in the 'black prison car'. From beginning to end, he did not leave the movies from the 'photo studio'

model.

However, the Lumiere brothers believe that the movie should be open and should be appreciated by many people, and should not be bound by the model of the photo studio. The movie should be a kind of restoration of life, a kind of record... etc.

Thought.

In history, the Lumiere brothers created the film, perhaps one of the greatest inventions in modern human history, greatly enriching the spiritual life of mankind. However, now, they are just two shy boys who are a little older.

They have just independently invented a flexible and lightweight portable "moving film machine", which is a "genius" machine that can photography, combines projection and printing.

I won’t go into details about the principles and structure of the film console. After receiving Long Hao’s instructions, Zheng Gongxiao placed it in Europe and visited the brothers and their genius inventions in France, and brought them to the United States.

Because Zheng Gongxiao promised them on behalf of Long Hao that the king of the Alchemy Kingdom might invest in making movies, allowing their movies to be watched, commented on, and then changed their spiritual world.

The introduction of the two brothers ended here, and Long Hao and their meal were finished.

"Let me go and see your works!"

Long Hao wiped his mouth. The Sichuan cuisine in this Chinese restaurant is indeed good. The spicy people's lips are numb and they are particularly refreshing.

"Okay, okay, Your Majesty Hao is willing to come and guide him in person, but we are unlucky."

The two brothers Lumier breathed a sigh of relief, one was to feel glad to stay away from Sichuan cuisine and cherish life, and the other was to feel excited for Long Hao's understanding.

To put it bluntly, they are a pair of movie lovers. The things they shoot are like their own children, and they always desire to get recognition from others.

The recognition Long Hao gave them is the greatest praise for them!

With Long Hao's approach alone, the Lumiere brothers had the idea of ​​dying for their confidants.

Only those who love movies are those who understand life. Only those who understand life can give movies a better future!

The two brothers believed from the bottom of their hearts that Long Hao was a very suitable investor. He left his family and came to the United States across the ocean. There was nothing wrong with it!

If Long Hao could hear the voices of these two brothers, he would definitely shake his head and laugh: You guys are thinking too much.

Long Hao wanted to watch Lumiere brothers' movies. In fact, he just wanted to know what stage the current movie has developed, that's all. As for whether he appreciates movies and loves life, he is completely unbearable.

Long Hao came to the place where the Lumiere brothers stayed. It was a two-story Western-style building arranged by the SS. It was enough for him to live in it.

In the evening, climb to the top of the stairs and you will see the panoramic view of New Los Angeles, which is very beautiful.

I am very satisfied with such a good place to live and have artistic and romantic atmosphere in my heart.

However, the place where the movies can't be played is the romantic top floor. The Lumiere brothers led Long Hao and the drizzle into the basement.

The basement is not big. But it is arranged in an orderly manner by the brothers, and there are many equipment that are not famous for drizzle... Of course, there are also several chairs.

Long Hao knew without asking that these chairs should be used for watching movies.

The Lumiere brothers knocked down a roll of white cloth curtains. They occupied a wall, and then a machine that looked very rough but condensed with the hard work of the craftsmen was pushed up.

The brother said, "Plug in! It's really rare to have electricity here."

The younger brother said, "It's ready, turn off the light, August."

With the joint efforts of the two brothers, the light that was not bright in the basement completely disappeared. In a few seconds, a strong light that could stimulate the retina bloomed on the white cloth curtain. Then, a moving black and white image appeared on the cloth curtain.

superior.

The drizzle covered his mouth and exclaimed softly, but Long Hao patted the back of his hands and calmed down.

Long Hao sat on the chair and nodded slightly. He understood that he might be the first Chinese to see a movie in this era.

Moreover, it was a VIP venue set up for him alone.

(Okay, forgive Long Hao for neglecting the drizzle.)

The "activity film console" invented by the Lumiere brothers is obviously somewhat flawed. The entire playback process is not so smooth. In just twelve minutes, the film stopped three times in the middle, and two of them were lighted up, and the forehead was sweating.

The two brothers were busy in the maintenance.

If it is a normal movie viewing in a cinema, such performance will definitely be complained and refunded. However, as an epoch-making movie projection, such a result is already quite good. At least judged by the perspective of Long Hao, a future person.

It is definitely a score above the passing line.

After the movie was over, the lights were on. Long Hao stood up under the gaze of the two nervous brothers, then raised his hand and slowly clapped his hands.

Suddenly, the Lumiere brothers breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed their whole body.

Long Hao nodded while applauding and said, "It's very good, I'm very satisfied! If I read it correctly, this short video should be a real story around you who filmed it, right?"

Lumiel's brother nodded: "Your Majesty Hao, you are right. This is a film we filmed outside Paris. After coming to Los Angeles, we also filmed several films, which show that the American people love labor and are willing to help others.

Something is right!"
