Volume 6 Chapter 109 - Following development requests (1/2)
Three days later, elder Undine brought a bunch of elven magicians from the Azshara Tribe to go back to the Stantine Duchy with Xu Yi and Still.
Liz and Linda brought the children back to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s main base while Xu Yi’s group headed to Frestech City.
Frestech City after several years of development had gone from taking a bit of land to over ten square kilometers. It had over fifty thousand people and there were over three hundred thousand that passed through the city.
The reason why the passing population was this high was because the Frestech Chamber of Commerce designed this place as a product distribution center.
The cargo that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce sent, other than a portion that went through the harbour and was transported by the sea, the remaining cargo all passed through Frestech City first. They were then sent out by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s transport center here.
Because of this, the Fersen Transport Company had built their Stantine Duchy headquarters here, turning it into the center of Stantine Duchy’s logistics network. The other companies of the Stantine Duchy would also send their cargo here before they were transported further.
Because of this advantage, there were many Stantine Duchy companies that placed their factories near Frestech City.
So after a few years, there was a crowded industrial circle of factories around Frestech City. It meant that there was a large variety of products that were available in Frestech City, so it attracted even more people.
With this cycle, Frestech City became even more prosperous. It could now be considered the most prosperous city in all of the Stantine Duchy.
Even in the other countries in the southwest corner of the continent, Frestech City was considered one of the most prosperous cities, not being worse than the capitals of the surrounding countries.
This time elder Undine had brought the elven mages along because of the prosperity of Frestech City, she was planning on building an elf town near Frestech City.
The Stantine Duchy was completely controlled by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce and Frestech City belonged to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, so the Azshara Tribe choosing to develop here was naturally because of elder Undine’s considerations.
Other than that, this place was very close to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, so it was easier to get support from them.
As for bringing the Azshara Tribe elven mages along, it wasn’t for this matter. It was to work with the New Moon Chamber of Commerce to develop something here.
Since the Frestech Chamber of Commerce obtained the Magic Illusion Projector technology, the New Moon Chamber of Commerce had worked with the Azshara Tribe to develop many functions for this technology. It was not only limited to filming Illusion Films.
This time, Still was planning to use the Frestech Chamber of Commerce as a pilot to set up an entertainment city for the New Moon Chamber of Commerce. It would mainly focus on showing Illusion Films with supporting crews as a secondary focus, while also satisfying the advertising needs of the various companies.
Also as the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s grasp on the Illusion Projector technology increased, Akali’s team that worked magic resonance combined it with the magic communication network, allowing them to show Illusion Films from a long distance.
This was something that was like television broadcasting from earth, which could be considered an era defining invention.
But this world didn’t have the concept of entertainment just yet, so it couldn’t create too much of a stir with word of mouth alone.
So Still decided to invest in a music and video entertainment center in Frestech City. She would use brand new technology to broadcast in real time to everyone who bought the Magic Illusion Projector.
If it went smoothly, Xu Yi believed that this New Moon Film Entertainment Center would become the first TV broadcast station on the continent.
It wasn’t exaggerated to say that this would completely change the entertainment industry on the continent.
Of course, choosing to set it up in Frestech City first was because Frestech City was where the most Magic Illusion Projectors were right now.
According to the stats, there were over thirty thousand Magic Illusion Projectors sold in Frestech City. As long as they were a permanent resident of Frestech City, they would have one.
Even if they were part of the passing population, as long as they could, they would also buy one.
The New Moon Chamber of Commerce had experimented with Illusion Film renting the year before last and after two years, it was the most welcome method of entertainment in Frestech City.
The New Moon Chamber of Commerce’s financial report showed that it was a fourth of their income last year.
Based on this, Still accepted Xu Yi’s suggestion and focused on developing in Frestech City.
This time, the Azshara Tribe elf mages came to help the New Moon Chamber of Commerce on this. They would first increase the number of Illusion Films made and then make Illusion Film renting more popular, while focusing on building the New Moon Film Entertainment Center.
Of course, whether it was the plans of the Azshara Tribe or the New Moon Chamber of Commerce, although Xu Yi was related, he didn’t mainly care about this.
Xu Yi also came to Frestech City because he had another plan that involved the Frestech Chamber of Commerce and even the entire Frestech City.
“You want to move out the product distribution center?” The Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s product distribution center’s manager Ozil looked at Xu Yi in surprise, as if he didn’t dare believe his ears, “Sir chairman, why…..are you doing this? Our Frestech City’s product distribution center is running very smoothly, there aren’t any problems.”
Xu Yi revealed a smile and used his hand to signal for him to calm down. Then he looked at the people gathered in the room and said, “I don’t feel that there is a problem with your work, actually it’s been very outstanding. There is a large amount of products being shipped each year, but you were able to keep going without any major incidents, so it wasn’t easy.”
“Then…..Sir chairman, why are you doing this?” The Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s CEO’s assistant Canasova sitting across from Ozil asked in a confused voice.
Because Kennard was busy, it was Canasova who attended this meeting on his behalf.
But compared to how direct Kennard was in front of Xu Yi, he was clearly much more careful.
