Therefore, the Arts Group 2 was divided into two groups. On the one hand, it carefully prepared a plan to establish a film company. The investment of 3.5 million yuan was not a small number in this era. There were no more than 20 veterans who could own this number of assets. After the film company was established, it was necessary to make detailed plans for how to operate it. On the other hand, it also stepped up the production of another drama, which is a political task. Not to mention that the Arts Group 2 has not yet left the government, even if it was established, it must maintain good relations with the government.

During this period, the drama movies arranged by the second group of Art have been fully released in major and medium-sized cities of the East China Government, and they have achieved quite good results, because the amateur entertainment life of the people in this era is really too poor. The expression of movies is actually much better than dramas, and the ticket price is much cheaper than dramas. The purpose of making these two drama movies was not to make money, but to promote the image and values ​​of the East China Government. Therefore, the ticket price was set very low, 5 cents per piece, which can only ensure the operating cost of the movie. The production costs and the salary of personnel are paid by the government. The minimum ticket price of opera theaters in this era is also 2 cents, and a good and high-end theater must reach 5,6 cents, or even 1 yuan. Naturally, a large number of audiences flocked to the cinemas, almost full of scenes, and it is difficult to get a ticket.

After more than 10 days of work, the production of another drama was finally completed and was released in various places. At the same time, several movies previously filmed by the Art Group II were also released together, and the hot scenes remain the same.

At this time, the sports delegation to the European competition arrived in Qingdao. In addition to the four-country sports meeting in Germany, there were also gymnastics. The wrestling team went to Sweden to participate in the competition. The gymnastics performed well and won two championships in free gymnastics and vaulting horses, individual all-round and third in the team. The wrestling team was wiped out and no champion was won.

Because the Chinese have stronger physical flexibility and coordination than Europeans, they are suitable for gymnastics. The athletes participating in this competition are selected from drama and juggling teams. Although they are around 20 years old, they have practiced for at least 10 years. Many people have practiced for 14 or 5 years. The basic skills are quite solid. Because they use fewer equipment, such as free gymnastics and vaulting horses, there are certain advantages, and there are not enough training time for equipment, single, parallel bars, saddle horses, and hanging rings. Therefore, the East China government still has great achievements in gymnastics. However, in this era, there are no free gymnastics events in the Olympic Games, but there are two events that have been cancelled in Swedish gymnastics and European gymnastics.

In wrestling events, although the East China government sent all Mongolian athletes and were all good wrestling players this time, there is still a big difference between Mongolian wrestling and Olympic wrestling competitions, and it is difficult to improve in a short period of time.

In addition, the swimming teams who went to the United States to participate have already returned to Qingdao, and the swimming team's performance was even worse, with only two third-place finishes, and nothing else was left. The reason is that on the way to the United States, the swimming team had not trained for nearly 40 days and had no water. There was only 10 days of recovery time when they arrived in the United States. Of course, it was impossible for such a state to perform at a normal level in the competition.

After the delegation arrived in Qingdao, Qiu Yi and other coaches negotiated and decided to give all athletes five days off, adjust their post-sail status, and then conduct a two-month training camp, mainly to conduct targeted training on the shortcomings of this overseas competition. After this training camp, the athletes were given a long holiday, so that they could go home for the New Year, and train again after the New Year to prepare for the Olympics.

As for the arrangements of the Cultural, Education and Health Committee, the videos of this competition were edited and recorded in the cinema, and the delegation also fully supported it. First, this is the government's work arrangement; second, this is also to expand the influence of sports in the East China government, because after the Olympics, the East China government will definitely set up a special sports agency, so the second group of Art hurriedly copied all the videos of the competitions taken by the delegation and started to produce them.

At the same time, the Art Group II and the coaches of the delegation also discussed how to make these game videos together. First, the video of football games, which is the best to make, because the football game is a complete victory, so each game can be made into a movie separately. However, Qiu Yi suggested that the eight games participated by the East China Government football team were cut into a goal-picking movie, which is a common occurrence in football programs in later generations. The Art Group II also expressed that it accepted this suggestion.

However, there is a difficulty, not only football games, but other games, which is commentary. This requires professionals. The East China Government does not have full-time sports commentators. The veterans of the second group of art have several football enthusiasts, but they are all amateur levels. It is far from enough to explain football games, let alone other games. In the end, it was decided that the coaches would be responsible for the commentary and recording of all games. Fortunately, the commentary of sports games does not require too strong broadcasting skills, and it doesn't matter if there are occasional slips.

In other competitions, the results of the East China Government delegation were not good this time. They won several championships in track and field and gymnastics, and there was not a single championship in wrestling. How can this be made? In the end, everyone discussed that track and field, gymnastics, and wrestling were cut into a movie. Track and field, and gymnastics were highlighted in several events that they won. Other competitions only had the final shots. Wrestling competitions also had to be done, and Guan Jian put them in the commentary, emphasizing factors such as short training time and insufficient experience.

After determining the production direction, the rest of the work will be easier. The main thing is to spend time on production. Moreover, the production of sports competitions is not difficult, because there are not many shots, and the dubbing work is relatively simple. In addition, there are 5 editing machines in the second group of Arts. After the film production of two dramas, the editing work has become much more proficient, so the work efficiency has also been greatly improved. In more than 10 days, 4 football games were cut, and then the East China Government was released publicly.

During this period, Qiu Yi and others were not idle. On the one hand, they cooperated with the work of the Art Group 2, and on the other hand, they also started writing a summary report on this overseas competition. The preparations for participating in the Stockholm Olympics in Sweden were determined through this overseas competition. The opening time of the Stockholm Olympics in Sweden was July 6, 1912. The voyage from Qingdao to Sweden will take 50-60 days, and after arrival, it will take at least 20 days of rest. Therefore, the departure time of the Olympic delegation should be between April 10 and 15, 1912.

At the same time, in Sweden, you must rent a residence and training venue in advance for the Olympic delegation to rest and train after arriving in Sweden. Of course, the residence may not be in Stockholm, but it must be near Stockholm. In addition, considering the characteristics of the swimming team's training needs, the residence of the swimming team can be determined separately.

In addition, on the way to Sweden, the athletes must be trained normally so that the athletes can be competitive. On the way to Europe this time, the training arrangements are basically possible, but there is no swimming team to go to Europe this time, so on the way to Sweden, a temporary swimming pool must be set up on the boat for the swimming team to train.

When Qiu Yi and others summarized, after the release of the first four football games, the movies continued to be in the movie craze, which was even better than the first two drama movies. Because the first two movies are essentially dramas, most people in this era just watch the excitement when they enter the cinema. No one will watch the actors' performances, plots, etc. In comparison, the images of the football games are naturally more in line with the people's appetites. Moreover, the football teams in the East China Government won these games, and they have a relatively obvious advantage, which makes the people enjoy watching it, and are naturally more popular. Almost every day, there are long queues to buy tickets at the entrance of the cinema.

Moreover, many cities that have no cinemas have been prepared to renovate or build cinemas after seeing the popularity of movies, while cities that have cinemas plan to build more cinemas. After all, a cinema is not enough. At the same time, the Cultural and Educational and Health Commission is also preparing to go to the countryside and enter the school, which means open-air movies that have been planned long ago.

Of course, the popularity of the movie also greatly squeezed the living space of musical operas and miscellaneous arts performances. The audience went to watch movies. As for musical operas, the audience of miscellaneous arts performances decreased significantly, and the income naturally decreased greatly. Many theaters were forced to lower prices. The East China government's attitude towards literature and art is to try its best to push it to the market, so that they can fend for themselves in the market, and it is also to keep literature and art free and innovative. The government only sets standards, supervision and guidance on the content forms of literature and art. Of course, it is still to protect some relatively unpopular arts, or to support them by the government, or cooperate with the government.

Due to the extreme poverty of cultural and entertainment activities in this era, under the rule of the East China Government, the living standards of the people have been greatly improved, the demand for spare time has also increased, and the social order has also been greatly improved. There are no bullies who have blackmailed out, and there is no need to do anything from top to bottom. Therefore, there are broad markets for various musical operas and miscellaneous arts performances. Even if there are new entertainment activities such as dances, dramas, and concerts, the income has increased significantly compared with the past, so naturally they are unwilling to be governed by others under the protection of the government.
