Now there is a problem… there was no CD or Blu-ray or any physical way to store movies… as he knows.. he needs to ask his driver first…of course, there are some things like flash disks, but he can only use that for now.
But the TV does not support that…… TV nowadays already uses the internet so it was hard to look for a TV that supports outside sources like flash disks.
After some research, he found out that there is one way! there are still CDs in the form of cards for movies but it is more like a collection and usually has the actor or actress's personal sign there…
And if by any chance the owner of this card wants to watch, he only needs to sweep it on a TV hardware and it automatically scans the Card!
It is called a flash card and no, it is not a card for kids, it functions really as a flash disk…. well it seems rather old-fashioned naming and in his own world this kind of technology was already implemented…
But here it was upgraded as it can scan not only small bytes of data but much more bigger data, even the whole movie! And of course, it was a collection…
Still, as long as it was available he can use it, right?
And with this, Garen can use this idea to make more gold coins! He can just store one movie on one card and make a cover of that movie on the card...
This looks like a good idea!
So with that, he talk with his driver to have a prototype first and for movies… maybe a romance one ? he believes that people from his game world will be bored of fighting….
But now it was a problem of settings… he need to look for a romance movie that have similar settings to the medieval era!
Luckily medieval era was still a good setting to use in movies here and there are many circulating outside!
And so it become a hectic day for Garen, he need to go to many suppliers that sell this kind of item and manually store the movie inside the card, print the cover on the card and so it finished!
Of course along the way he need to look for a generator too… and asked for a modified version… it was not so big and enough to be used for operating a TV.
At first, he wants to let his driver handle that but in the end, he himself follows along….
Still advanced technology help with production and so today he already has a prototype of a Generator, TV, and even the Movie Card!
He himself try it first and found it was a bit annoying to set up as he need to plug some cable from the portable generator to the TV and then sweep the trailer movie card on the TV hard drive.
he wants to make money by selling the movies so he will only show the trailer right?
Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author's consent. Report any sightings.
Soon movies play on the screen… with the help of holographic, his TV is already more like a projector and can be watched on widescreen.
The sound was clear and the movies look engaging!
It was a good set! Now he just needs to display it first and look for some customers to buy it!
As for the price… he doesn’t know.. will he sell it in a bundle? or each item alone?
In the end, he still set it to be separated, the TV was one set while the movie card, the battery, and the generator will be sold separately!
Yes, he uses a battery that can be recharged with a generator.. even though this world has mana they still can’t make a mana-related item so of course they can’t make a TV that can be charged with mana.
Their source of electricity was solar energy and thermal energy, of course this battery can be recharged, this battery was not so big but strong enough to turn on the TV for three or four days.
As for recharging…. it seems to be a hassle to do that…. he will think of a way later, maybe buy slaves to make this work. it's not a bad idea too.
He needs to build a recharge station first for that…. and it will consume so much money.
Even though it will be easy with his family funds but it still does not look good for him too… at least he will wait until this plan really becomes profitable so he can build one with ease.
He doesn’t really know if this can be a hit on that world right?
Soon he summons his Manager and lets him bring back this prototype set to his shop to display! Of course, he teaches him how to operate these items.
Soon he looks at his phone and on a lone small table there is this set of TV and generator, what more it already being turned on! And his customer can see the scene from that movie!
This really piques his customer interest and can’t help but ask the old manager “Sir what was that? did it a surveillance spell? and uhum don’t it a bit rude to spy on a couple?
Hearing this Garen's manager starts to fire up!
“don’t worry this was not a spell! It is called a movie! It tells us about the story of other people far away from here!” the manager explains to his customer.
It seems his customer don’t really know the difference between surveillance spells and movies… “erm don’t it still the same? this was used to spy on others….”
This makes the old manager smile “Of course not, it was more like a past history…. well it was telling about the history of someone....” garen did not really explain what movies were and his manager of course doesn’t know what movies are….
“uhum anyway it was for people to enjoy… a show, well just think of it as an opera.”
Hearing opera these people nod even though it was a fantasy world of course there is entertainment like opera here.
Soon after many crowed and watch the movies….
This makes Garen baffled…. will they buy one or just watch there…… it seems he can set a price for watching now…. luckily what they watch was only a few minutes trailer.
Soon he can hear the manager cough “This was for sale and it was not a full movie, you can watch it at home anytime you want! What's more if you miss some scenes you can repeat that! I will show you how to do that.”
With that the manager rewind the time for a bit and this make the people amazed!
Of course, his manager does not stop here “This was only the first movie that arrive, soon another movie will come in! Uhum in the easier term you can choose to watch what show you prefer later !” with that the manager explains more of this movies genre.
Like fantasy, romance, and so on….
This makes some customers wonder about the price “ Sir how much is this movie ?”
This makes the manager explain more “These movies consist of three parts, one was the movie that you watch, and here the device that can play these movies, and the last one was this device, it can help to power all the other items, and it needs this small item called battery as a power source, you can think of it like a mana for mages..”
Hearing this the others nod but their doubt is still not answered, soon this old manager says.
“ For the price, all of this was 50.000 Gold coins! No battery and movie card included! One battery can power this device for three or four days! For this battery, each one was 5.000 gold coins! While movie card was 30.000 Gold coins!” this old manager explain excitedly but the people's morale soon drop…
Most of them can’t buy this device!
This makes them sigh.. and some even ask “Did we need to pay if we want to just watch ?”
This makes the old manager think and give a proposal to Garen in real life!
Soon a panel appeared on Garen's phone and it say [your manager asked if he can take money from a customer to watch ?]
[Approve] [Reject]
Of course, Garen choose Approve!
Soon his manager says “Of course if you want to watch the full movie you need to pay 1.000 gold coins each time! And we will set a time to watch later.”
Soon some people grumble ‘can’t we just do it now ?”
The manager smiles and says “Of course but we need to do some renovation first, wait for a day, tomorrow you can officially watch movies here!”
This makes the customer nod and soon walk out…. they want to gather money for tomorrow!
But this makes Garen sigh again… his manager promises something that hard…. well luckily he has money to expand another land as it only requires 20.000 gold coins...
Maybe his manager already think about it first, soon a panel appeared and explain his Manager asked him permission to buy a new land and renovate it into a movie theater!
His manager don’t know what a movies theater was but he still know opera so he will design a similar system with that.
