Business Building In America : From The Underworld To Hollywood
This story unfolds during the later stages of World War II, where a man, scarred by the horrors of war, finally grasps the profound and harsh realities of the world. In this world, those at the top laugh and celebrate, while those at the bottom sacrifice their lives in futile conflicts driven by pride and meaningless ambition. A modern soul transmigrates and fuses with the original soul of a body, creating a unique and extraordinary existence. To some, he is a villain; to others, a madman. In a world steeped in cruelty, this man, determined to secure a place among the decision-makers, struggles to break free from the ranks of those powerless to control their fate. To achieve his goal, he resolves to shatter the chains of law, then the chains of morality, and finally the chains of mediocrity.
Chapter 227 Relaunch Of ABC TV.
"The progress on acquiring film sources isn't great. We've only bought films from small companies and some documentaries. Our criteria are strict; we won't take bad films. Big film companies don't want to sell good films, especially award winning ones. They say these movies can still make money in theaters, and selling them to TV for free broadcast means they can't make money anymore."
"So far, we've only bought 35 movies and 62 documentaries, averaging $2,800 each, all movies unlikely to be shown in theaters again."
Hardy calculated. These movies and documentaries already cost nearly $300,000. Running a TV station was indeed costly.
He understood the film companies thinking. Old movies rarely made money from re-releases, except for classics like "Gone with the Wind," "Casablanca," or "Waterloo Bridge."
"Are we ready for the broadcast?" Hardy asked.
"Yes, boss, we're ready. Just tell us the start date, and ABC will be on air," Fox said.
