Chapter 417 Cathode-Ray TVs

The meeting continued on, with everyone getting stunned with the last project.

The whole cathode-ray Tv project had completely made them speechless.

They blinked and wiped their eyes off with their sleeves... as if trying to make sure that they weren’t dreaming.

Moving Portraits!

How was that possible?

They were so excited, that they started fidgeting and laughing sheepishly.

They wanted to run, shout and scream out loud about what was going to happen next in Baymard.

But of course, these projects were all supposed to be kept confidential until it was time for them to be made known..... so they knew that they couldn’t.

To their surprise, his majesty not only wanted to do Cathode-Ray TVs.

His Majesty had also told them about something called a ’Cathode-Ray Camera’ as well.

Apparently, this camera thing would be able to make portraits without requiring one to paint for hours and hours.

In their minds, they had just one word for these 2 projects: ’GENIUS’.

.

Landon looked at their overly animated expressions and smiled.

It was so funny that they were getting excited over this.... as both projects will no doubt give one of the lowest qualities of pictures and films when compared to what he was used to in the modern times.

But still, this was a milestone for Baymard, and it was also new to these people.

So either way, it was good to start off there.

"As I said, I won’t go deep into production until all the resources needed for both the cathode ray TVs and Cathode-ray cameras are made available.

Also, we need to equip and install production machines and pipes within one of the massive rooms in your industry Tim.... before we start production.

But in the meantime, Tim..... like we did for the other projects, you need to hire electrical engineers, technical engineers, and all other engineers that would bring value to these projects.

I want engineers who are already working within your industry.... as well as new graduates or those looking for employment as well.

And once they get accepted, then you will be required to teach them while waiting for the production site to be completed.

But of course, the hiring process can only begin 2 weeks from now.... since I’ll use this first 2 weeks to teach you and a few supervisors the basics and concepts of it all."

"Yes, your majesty!" Tim said excitedly.

For the Kids Tv shows in particular... Landon wanted something like live shows with adults dressing up in costumes.

He wanted Sesame Street, Barney and so on.... as well as shows that taught them how to do simple math count and many more.

In truth.... from morning till noon, shows like that would commence on the channel.

But from noon upwards, other teenage focused shows would commence as well.

He would definitely record the first power rangers ever and put it on the Kids TV..... as well as kids game shows that were similar to treasure hunts like the famous ’legends of the hidden temple’, that used to air in Nickelodeon back on earth.

Anyway... these were the sort of things that Landon had been aiming for.

.

And when it came to movies... only about 2/5 of the recorded movies made will be placed on Tv, as Landon wanted the people to buy most of them from the store shelves as well.

Of course one should know that the system had also given him the exact model for solar TVs as well..... so those in other empires could take these TVs away as well as those ’fat and large’ movie cassette tapes and watch them from their own empires.

And when it concerned the matter of prerecorded Tv series..... Landon didn’t want to do those yet, as he planned to record an entire season before airing it out.

.

Since this was already Medieval times.... for sure, Game of thrones had to be done too!

Of course, he would edit some scripts and remove the dragon part..... but still, it would still be grand.

And also, shows like the legend of the seeker, Hercules, Xena, Camelot, Spartacus and many more would be on there.

As well as Tv shows that aired Baymard’s ’modern’ life.... fantasy tv shows, romance and so on.

In fact, the only tv series which he could really make right now was the whole Power rangers, and kids tv series like Sabrina the teenage witch.

With these ones, he could film every 7 episodes a week prior.... and release them strategically a week later.

And when it came to animation, since he didn’t have the time to properly teach people now..... then they would just have to wait.

.

All in all..... Landon had planned to release 20 movies once the cathode TVs were done.

Lile he said, 2/5 would be put on Tv, and the others had to be bought and watched from home at their own convenience.

And one shouldn’t think that this was all that could be bought from the stores, as every live show that aired on Tv..... like the theatre shows with magic tricks, and even broadway plays.... would also be recorded and sold in stores a MONTH after they aired.

As for pre-recorded Tv shows, only kids shows would be done now.

And biweekly, the Tv station would release a Tv guide for everyone to know what hour each show would pop up on the screen.

This was the plan!
