The meeting place is in the theater. Harvey is ready to take the camera crystal with him.
As soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw Maxwell, the owner of Brenda theater, and Kenneth and Jared, the middle casters, waiting at the gate of the theater. Harvey went to shake hands with Maxwell and said with a smile, "long time no see, Mr. Brenda."
Maxwell responded with a warm smile: "it''s a pleasure to see you again, Mr. Adrian."
Kenneth nodded to Harvey as a greeting. He was still wearing a gown that didn''t fit in with the theater style.
The way of greeting Jared was changed to a hug. After a while, four people entered the theater and came to a luxurious box. The box is much more high-end than the box where Harvey watched EVA''s Secret last time. There are rectangular dining tables carefully cleaned by servants, white tablecloths filled with all kinds of exquisite tableware, and even a small pool for watching. The basic people who can sit here to watch the drama are people standing at the top of the pyramid of the Elroy community.
After sitting down and coughing, Harvey said straight to the point: "this appointment with Mr. Brenda is actually my intention to cooperate with Brenda theatre company, which is one of the top theatrical companies in Wang''s country. Last time I watched the secret of EVA, I was also surprised by the performances of the actors. You have rich experience, excellent actors and excellent casters like Mr. Randolph. I can''t find a better choice for cooperation in the Kingdom than you
Sure enough!
Jared and Maxwell were surprised, but at the same time they felt a natural surprise. Maxwell immediately looked at Harvey, excited and asked, "it''s a great honor to have your praise, Mr. Adrian. Do you want to adapt the count of Monte Cristo into a play? I''ve read your novel, and it can be a great work both from the perspective of literature and drama. "
Harvey nodded and shook his head. "I really intend to make the count of Monte Cristo into a play, but in a different way than you think."
"What do you mean?" Jared looks at Harvey suspiciously.
Harvey looked at Kenneth and said slowly, "I have visited Mr. Randolph many times. You are an excellent caster. I have learned a lot from Mr. Randolph. Before I was the author of the count of Monte Cristo, I was also a caster. With the help of Mr. Randolph, I recently completed a study on magic crystal. "
Randolph looked at Harvey''s wooden box on the table, his bent body straightened unnaturally, and his wrinkled face was a little surprised: "Mr. Adrian, you have finished the research on your conjecture?"
"Yes."
"Harvey, don''t let it get out of the way. What is it about the wooden box you brought?" Jared asked eagerly. He was not surprised at Harvey''s identity as a caster. Harvey had boasted that the founder of the Adrian family was once a caster in Norton, the capital. In fact, he also confirmed the news from his father.
Harvey waved not to worry, looked at Maxwell and asked, "Mr. Brenda, what do you think drama is?"
Maxwell didn''t understand why Harvey asked this question. He thought for a moment and said, "there is a saying that drama originates from the joy of people celebrating the harvest. This is the source and the core of drama. We perform on the stage. Dance, language, movement and figure are all for the purpose of narration. If the script is a historical legend, drama is to praise the history of heroic poetry. Drama has no fixed form, but to show people''s nostalgia for the past, their cognition of the present and their longing for the future. "
Harvey was stunned and said with a smile, "Mr. Brenda, your answer is much more profound than I expected. Of course, it''s very good. It''s true. Drama, as Mr. Brenda said, is a means of telling a story. The meaning of expression depends on the script. However, I have only one doubt from the past. Drama is only performance after all. It''s just playing different roles on the stage. To be honest, in my eyes, drama is too dull, and no matter how good the performance is, it''s too pompous. "
Maxwell, as the boss of the theater company, naturally did not agree with Harvey''s words. Due to Harvey''s identity, he was not able to say anything to refute Harvey''s words. He slowly asked, "what do you mean?"
Harvey said to him with an apologetic smile: "Mr. Brenda, I''m sorry to offend you, but I won''t change my view. Drama is always for others to see. No matter how wonderful the plot is, it''s just for the stage to perform. What I want to do is to liberate this point. The actors no longer play a role, but let themselves become that role."
Maxwell and Jared looked at each other and were dazed by Harvey''s words.
Randolph remembered Harvey''s words and looked at the wooden box more surprised.
Seeing that the trick was almost over, Harvey came to the table and directly took out the white tablecloth, fixed it on the wall with a knife, and then fixed the four corners of the white cloth. Under their puzzled eyes, they closed the curtains, turned off the lights, and the luxurious private room became dark.
"Harvey, what are you doing?"
Harvey mysteriously explained, "my dear friend, are you ready to witness a new era of drama?"
"I don''t understand you..."
"Click."
Harvey pressed the projection function of the photographic crystal to project a clear image onto the white cloth. At the same time, from the wooden box came the noise of the busy streets.
Randolph stood up suddenly excited: "this is..."
The sudden appearance of the projection startled the three of them. Their eyes were attracted by the clear and strange scene displayed on the table cloth. This is the photo sample of intersection recorded by Harvey yesterday. There are three-dimensional projections in this world. Of course, there are similar films, but the quality of the pictures projected by photographic crystal is very different, and the sound can also be heard. The difference is the same as that between black-and-white silent films and Hollywood special effects blockbusters.
What''s the reaction of people who haven''t even been in touch with black and white silent films to see Hollywood special effects movies for the first time?
Jared was surprised to see the projection on the white tablecloth. He didn''t react at all. He didn''t know what it meant. He was just surprised at the delicacy of the projection.
At the beginning, Maxwell, the owner of the theater, simply marveled at these pictures. Then he thought of Harvey''s words just now, and his eyes became more and more crazy when he looked at the pictures! The sample film perfectly records every scene. If it is used to record drama, then drama will no longer be limited to the stage!
Kenneth, the middle caster, has a very complicated vision. He looks at Harvey with admiration and a gray disappointment. When he sees the demo, he knows what it means. It will become a storm to change the use of magic crystal! But he also thought that Harvey''s behavior was very weak, and the effect of this kind of picture demonstration was much better than projection.
The quality of projection is related to the quality of magic crystal and the caster himself. It is impossible to record the big scene. At this time, the sample piece displayed in front of him can perfectly record the whole street. All kinds of details can be seen clearly. We can see the busy crowd, the damage of buildings, the structure of horses and carts. He was thinking about whether these pictures were coherent or composed of pause pictures. He remembered that Harvey had shown him something called "magic disk" before.
