Chapter 532: Love Lisia's Movie
Merlin raised his lips slightly when he heard this, and said, "That's great, won't it be a big hit? Go and ask them if they want to use our line, and we'll schedule a screening for them."
As soon as these words came out, Elsa's eyes widened in shock. She looked at Merlin in disbelief and said loudly, "Are you going to help the enemy? Alicia has always regarded Stacy as a competitor. Aren't you asking for trouble?"
Merlin waved his hand and said disapprovingly: "Don't say such harsh words. What's the point of enemies? We are just competitors. When we do business, can't we all make money together? Why not do more ways to make money?"
"This is not an ordinary competition, this is a battle for faith!" Elsa said anxiously, raising her voice, "How can you mix that filthy money into this! The power of faith is of great importance and cannot be measured by money."
Merlin smiled helplessly and explained patiently, "Please, filming a movie is not an easy task. Money is needed in every aspect. Props, scenes, actors' salaries, etc. Which one doesn't require real money? And you also know that the revenue of "Cinderella" is quite considerable."
"I'll take care of all of this! I'll give it to you directly!" Elsa said angrily, with a determined look on her face.
Merlin was a little surprised. He then took out a document from his drawer, handed it to Elsa, and said, "Look, up to now, the movie Cinderella has earned me a million gold coins. This is just the box office income, not including the income from peripheral products. Are you sure you can cover all the money? If you can, that's totally fine, but don't forget the subsequent income."
Elsa looked at the numbers on the document and her heart tightened. She gritted her teeth, turned around without saying anything, pushed the door open and left, saying, "Sorry to bother you, bye!"
Merlin looked at Elsa's departing back and shook his head helplessly, but there was still a faint smile on his face.
However, he was really looking forward to what kind of movie Alicia would shoot...
A week later, the cinemas were packed and the air was filled with anticipation and excitement.
Today is the day when the movie "Caged Bird" starring Alicia is released.
I have to say that the elves' ability to act is truly amazing. They managed to complete the filming of a movie in such a short time.
Merlin sat leisurely in his seat, holding a copy of the original book of "Caged Bird" in his hand.
In order to make Alicia famous, the elves really spent a lot of money and carefully prepared an original book for every audience member who came to watch the movie.
As the lights dim, the movie begins.
The first thing that catches the eye is the close-up of Alicia's beautiful face. Her eyes are full of pity, as if she is really carrying endless suffering.
At the same time, Alysia's gentle and slightly sad voice slowly sounded: "I am a girl from a poor family..."
Merlin raised his eyebrows slightly and nodded thoughtfully, thinking to himself, "Is that so? Is this the poor setting?"
However, the scene immediately changed and stretched out, and Merlin's expression suddenly froze.
I saw that Alicia, a girl who claimed to be from a poor family, actually lived in a magnificent villa.
The villa is decorated in an extremely luxurious way, with walls made of exquisite white marble and beautiful murals depicting the legendary stories of the elves.
Every inch of the silk and satin the girl was wearing seemed to emit a dreamy luster, and the delicate texture was obviously made by the elves' top tailor.
"No? What the hell? This is called a girl from a poor family?" Merlin couldn't help but complain in a low voice, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
He quickly lowered his head to look at the book in his hand, his eyes fell on the author column, which clearly read "Isabella".
Merlin understood instantly that Isabella was a member of the royal family. In their eyes, manors and palaces were the norm, and residences of the size of a villa were probably not something they would be interested in.
The movie ignored Merlin's shock and continued to move forward in an orderly manner.
In the picture, Alicia is riding on a reindeer cart, heading towards Andalia, the most prosperous capital of the elves, where she is going to work.
"No? A deer chariot? And a high-standard one at that. Are you kidding me?" Merlin widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.
You know, in the world of elves, ordinary elves only ride ordinary deer carts on a daily basis, while spirit deer carts are a means of transportation that only elves with status and position can enjoy.
The so-called poor girl played by Alicia was riding in a high-standard carriage, the configuration of which was almost equivalent to the first-class cabin of a Blue Star aircraft, which shows how luxurious it was.
Sitting in the deer carriage, Alysia sighed softly and continued her inner monologue: "In order to save daily expenses, I can only live in the unsightly, 200-square-meter commercial house in the Andaliya Center. (Similar to the houses near the business district of Shanghai)"
Merlin was speechless at this moment, thinking silently in his heart: "I really want to complain, but I don't know where to start. This setting has completely subverted my cognition."
Just then, a breeze blew gently, and a bluebird messenger came and landed in front of Alicia.
The blue bird flashed a soft light, and slowly transformed into a serious-looking elf. The elf was full of anger and shouted loudly: "Alicia, why haven't you come to work yet? If you don't come to work again, I will deduct your welfare money for this month! Three hundred gold coins!"
"Oh my god, what kind of job do you have? The welfare is 300 gold coins?!" Merlin couldn't help but clench his fists, secretly converting it in his mind. These 300 gold coins would be 30,000 on Blue Star. The job benefits are too outrageous.
When Alicia heard this, her legs went weak. She acted pitiful, tears in her eyes, and begged softly, "No, please don't, have mercy on me, I'm just a poor and delicate girl. If I don't have this money, I may not be able to pay the salary of the housekeeper who cleans and cooks for me!"
"Butler? Salary?" Merlin felt as if he was in a strange world. The development of the plot was beyond his imagination.
"What's it to me? You must remember your identity. What else do you have besides your own high-level bloodline? Be careful or I will deduct money from your monthly salary of 1,800 gold coins!" the boss roared viciously.
"Wait? Is this girl a high-level blood elf?" Merlin tried hard to recall the settings of the elves, remembering that high-level elves did receive a subsidy every month.
