The journey starts from the Titanic

So when the movie projector is showing, to hear the sound, you can only add a sound playback system.The recording time of the best tapes on the market is only 5 minutes. In order to create a magnificent war scene, the film company recorded more than 50 tapes at a high price.

This part of the money naturally came from Situ Nan, he thought it was worth it!

William Films does not intend to promote all the troublesome movie sounds, but a movie with a Chinese protagonist is dubbed in English, which always feels a bit awkward.

The so-called dubbing means that the movie is being played while the announcer is dubbing into the microphone at the same time, so there are a thousand voices for a thousand voice actors, and the audience feels different.

"Isn't Fox Shadow Company building a luxury movie theater? Choose some dubbing discs and send them over." Situ Nan suggested.

In this world, there are no more than 10 people who can really enjoy the visuals and sounds of movies!He also has a movie theater at home and a special movie library that collects a large number of documentaries about the process of the founding of South China. Because it is too real, he dare not show it to children at home.

Rose nodded and accepted it happily.In large cities such as New York and Chicago, the income of a luxury movie theater is higher than that of 100 ordinary movie theaters, and the quality requirements for movies are also higher, at least the quality of the film is much better.

"Have you seen? The sound film technology is imminent, you have to step up." Situ Nan urged.

William Films and Nicola?Tesla has been studying sound film technology for almost two years, but it was just one step too short of success, otherwise this wonderful movie could be made into a sound film.

After watching the movie, Little Rockefeller praised: "It feels great, it's a super enjoyment! Even the Fox Cinemas in New York does not have such a movie with a record."

Little Rockefeller pointed to the gramophone next to the screen and laughed, "Miss Rose, you are amazing, you are one of the few capable women I have seen. Of course, you are also very beautiful!"

"Thank you! I hope Mr. Rockefeller will join in more." Rose smiled with a reserved smile, flushed cheeks, blue eyes, and a fascinating smile, making a good man like Rockefeller a little moved.

Chapter 178 Oil Merchant Sinclair

"She's a nice woman, and she can help you take care of the film company, you picked it up!" Little Rockefeller glanced back. Rose, who was standing at the door reluctantly, looked at Situ Nan with some envy.

Situ Nan smiled without saying a word, and concentrated on driving the Lincoln generation that Old Leland sold to him.After a while, he smiled and said, "Nanhua has a lot of things that make your heart move? When the movie was set in the Minas Oilfield, I saw that your eyes were red."

"You are so cunning! When the three oil companies went to the Indonesian archipelago to develop business together, you assigned a small oil field to Mobil Oil and let Mobil Oil fight Shell Oil in Balikpapan, but you slipped to Sumatra and swallowed the big oil field. Up."

Little Rockefeller looked at Situ Nan sadly.

In recent years, the two sides have cooperated a lot. Especially in Asia, the three American oil companies of the West, Mobil, and the Gulf have often joined forces to deal with BP’s political, economic and military advantages. They have made breakthroughs, but they accounted for the most. Situ Nan is always cheaper.

"It's just good luck. You know I've always had good luck." Situ Nan smiled triumphantly. Seeing Little Rockefeller's depressed look, his mouth became even higher. Otherwise, how can he compete with the Rockefeller family in the oil industry.

"luck?"

Little Rockefeller didn't believe it, and Mobil Oil also values ​​South China's oil. The two giants, Occidental Petroleum and Gulf Oil, have invested in South China, and Mobil Oil is naturally unwilling.

He came to Los Angeles not only for Chevron Oil Company, but also to expand Mobil Oil's influence in South China, and it was more appropriate to negotiate with Situ Nan.

"I think we can cooperate in some places. For example, Nanhua?"

Little Rockefeller’s words surprised Situ Nan. He slowed down and slowly listened to Little Rockefeller’s explanation. It turned out that Little Rockefeller was looking for oil for Exxon Oil Company.

Maybe it should be called New Jersey Standard Oil, but Stuart is used to calling Exxon.Exxon Petroleum is located in the east and lacks oil sources in the east. It is not as strong as Occidental Petroleum in terms of oil exploration and exploration, but it has strong oil transportation, refining and chemical capabilities, which Situ Nan has always longed for Occidental Petroleum to possess.

Every year Exxon Petroleum has to import a large amount of crude oil from overseas. Occidental Petroleum does not have such a large digestion capacity, so after extracting crude oil from Venezuela, Nanyang and other places, it sells it to Mobil or Exxon.

Now Little Rockefeller comes to the door. It is estimated that in the past two years, the oil refinery they invested in the east is "hungry" and "hungry for food". Only Situ Nan can provide them with a large amount of crude oil.

Recently, Occidental Petroleum Corporation increased its mining volume in the Minas oil field, and exploded another large Duri oil field, which made Rockefeller look after.

"Do you know that I will sell it to you? You know our oil refineries are also increasing!" Situ Nan smiled.

"Our experts have calculated that Occidental Petroleum's refinery can only digest half of the crude oil, and the rest are sold to other companies. This is how you reinvest in new oil fields and build new refineries. I hope Sell ​​your excess capacity to me."

Little Rockefeller believes, how else can Exxon Oil become the largest oil company in the United States?

"I really want to buy all the oil refineries in the east, or let those oil companies merge into Occidental Petroleum!" Situ Nan gave Little Rockefeller a look, a little helpless, the other party told the truth.

Occupy oil fields, buy oil fields, pay attention to vision, and you can do it with money, but oil transportation and refining are more difficult. It requires a lot of money and time to build pipelines and oil refineries. As for technology, it is even more important. It takes a long time to study.

In this regard, Occidental Petroleum is still a long way from the established overlord.Although he wanted to surpass the other party, he had to sell a large amount of crude oil to the other party.

Little Rockefeller is so confident only when he sees his "digestibility" is not strong?However, Rockefeller's approach was within Situ Nan's expectation, otherwise he would explode such a large oil field, who would he sell it to?

South China wants to exchange oil resources for industrialization funds, and the Rockefeller family is a good partner.

After all, I felt a little uneasy. Situ Nan slammed on the gas pedal, and the car was racing on the highway until it stopped at the gate of William School.

After watching the movie, Situ Nan and Jr. Rockefeller went to the University of William not far away. Jr. Rockefeller visited the University of William on behalf of the Rockefeller Foundation. When the school was founded, Situ Nan also knocked a sum of money from the old Rockefeller.

Seeing that Situ Nan had no objection, Little Rockefeller laughed secretly, and finally took advantage of the faint confrontation with Situ Nan.

In fact, he wanted to say to Situ Nan, "Young man, don't be too greedy."

When I visited the radio station of William University, this feeling became even stronger.

"The world's first radio station started here. Cummins Broadcasting Company was established earlier than Westinghouse Electric's radio station. I am confident that within ten years, we will build a radio system covering the entire United States."

Situ Nan believed himself.

He has technology and creativity, and he has a group of well-run broadcasting media talents. After ten years, it is not an extravagant wish to make Cummins broadcasts available everywhere in the United States.

"You guy, don't admit defeat at all." Little Rockefeller laughed, knowing that Situ Nan was willing to show off and was not angry.

In fact, the investment of the Rockefeller Consortium in the electric field has lost even more to Situ Nan. Westinghouse Electric has shares in the Rockefeller family, but people are often attracted by their achievements in the oil industry.As soon as Rockefeller mentioned it, he immediately responded-the oil seller!

Situ Nan wanted to see Nicholas?Tesla was a weird one, but the guy was too busy to hide in the laboratory and couldn't come out, so Situ Nan gave up.

I took Little Rockefeller to visit William University. In terms of charity education, the two have many common topics.Old Rockefeller donated 80 million U.S. dollars to build the University of Chicago, and Situ Nan's money spent at William University totaled more than 25 million U.S. dollars.

In terms of scientific research projects, the companies under the William Consortium cooperate closely with the University of William.The sum of the funds these companies spend on scientific research is under one million dollars each year.

"Sufficient funds, genius brains, unremitting efforts, can lead to promising technologies and improve the level of technology. You are much better than the guy at 23 Wall Street. That guy is too stingy."

After visiting William University, Little Rockefeller was in a good mood and joked with Situ Nan.

Situ Nan nodded. The growth of William University made him gratified, and he felt like spending money very cool.

"The pharmaceutical technology in Los Angeles is very good. The Giant Company is here, and the Giant Laboratory also maintains close cooperation with William University. I think the Rockefeller Foundation and the Rockefeller School of Medicine can cooperate in disease research."

Little Rockefeller suddenly proposed.

How can anyone refuse to send money?Little Rockefeller's proposal naturally got the approval of Principal Stratton.

Naturally, Situ Nan would not object, and when he walked out of the school gate, his eyes were attracted by a familiar figure.A long gown, a thin and tall figure, short hair, sharp eyes, walking on a quiet and leisurely campus, the not-so-bad pace is easily reminiscent of a soldier!

"I almost forgot, the bald head was forced to come to the United States by himself, and by mistake, he arranged an almost absurd path for him."

Situ Nan said to himself secretly.

Jiang Weiji was a little surprised. When he passed away, he heard a man with a decent appearance speaking Chinese. Although he couldn't hear clearly, a few powerful foreigners followed him, making him secretly guess the identity of the other party. I don't know, the white suit is a bit foreign in appearance, but the man who can be seen as a Chinese is the man behind the scenes who sent him to study abroad.

However, he didn't want to go back to Shanghai for the time being. He was afraid that those creditors would come to him. Huang Jinrong's death made him feel that there was a conspiracy, but he didn't know if it had anything to do with him.
