Chapter six hundred and twentieth true character starring slave owner

"At this point, it is no longer possible for us and the Yankees to coexist in the same country." McHale stood firmly slapping the table, wearing clothes in the style of the United States before the Civil War, looking at the people around him with cold eyes, and finally

His eyes fell on Sheffield and he said, "What do you think?"

"I also agree that the current situation has reached a time when we have to make a choice. No one thought that the Republican Party, a newly established local party, really defeated the Democratic candidate." Gale sighed and said, "It's too careless.

I feel like this will keep everyone in the middle of this decision for decades to come.”

At this time, Anne came up in a white dress, followed by Martin Luther King, and said with a smile, "What are you talking about? So angry."

Martin Luther King didn't say anything, and stood aside honestly as if the matter had nothing to do with him. The two of them looked at each other, and McHale said, "Something big has happened. Now many of our partners have made up their minds to leave the United States. We are here to help you."

Let’s discuss it with our families.”

"Is there anything to discuss? Although the Sheffield family of liberating all blacks will be affected to some extent, the impact will not be great. I believe you will be the same. Normally we lose some money and we won't have to fight to the death. But what about other people?

"Anne, who was wearing a long skirt, came to lead Sheffield behind her, and put a pair of bare hands on the man's shoulders. "For many people, a black labor force is the entire property of the entire family. Doesn't this force them to commit suicide?"

Sheffield reached out to hold the little hand on his shoulder and patted it gently, as if this could reassure his wife before expressing his opinion, "That's the problem. The Republican Party is a group of ordinary people who have no ability to govern."

, they have never thought about handling the problem properly. In one sentence, abolition of slaves can stand up and speak without pain in the back. What should we do with the losses of millions of citizens? For the sake of justice, generate electricity for love?"

"At this point, there is no other way but to secede from the United States. These arrogant Republicans have never understood how complicated the country is. Let's assemble our militia and prepare for war." Sheffield reached out and knocked on the table, attracting the attention of the two men.

Ding Jing said, "This may cost us a huge price, but we can't avoid it. Sooner or later, there will be such a day."

After walking out of the small room where the discussion was held, some people could be seen working in the fields in the endless wilderness outside. Sheffield suddenly looked back and said to Martin Luther King III, "The Republicans are here to rescue you. They have no intention of leaving us."

What?"

"Master, we are also willing to fight for this land that we love so much." Martin Luther King, with a serious look on his face, clenched his fists and promised, "I was born here, and I also love this land very much."

"If we win, we can also give you freedom." Sheffield stretched out his hand to tug on his suspenders, "but we will never accept the humiliation of defeat."

David Griffith nodded, and the cameraman finished his work. There were also the Gish sisters and Mary Pickford, and many actors were watching. After the filming of this clip, warm applause broke out from the surroundings, and the quiet Lillian Gee

Xu said to the director, "It's almost as if they are really doing it, and they don't look like actors at all."

"David, it's almost done!" Sheffield held his wife's hand and came to David Griffith's side and said, "Annie has to go back to Arlington, and the company has a lot of things to do. Shoot other things first.

Snippets."

"Many actors are shocked by the acting skills of your bosses. In fact, the acting skills of many actors are not reassuring. These bosses can make these newly famous actors realize that success requires hard work." David

It's time for Griffith to use this incident to hammer the actors who joined the movie, and at the same time to flatter them without any trace.

"There really is no one in this country who is more suitable to play this kind of role than us." Sheffield chuckled, acting completely in his true colors. He was not performing at all just now, he was completely imitating the story of the southern slave owners when they heard that the Republican Party came to power.

After recalling the situation, he waved his hand and said, "If there are no other shooting tasks today, let's eat first and chat while eating."

"I'm going back first. The airship is still waiting. Arlington still has a lot of things to do." Annie had already changed her clothes and came out. "Actually, someone else can play this role. I have no objection."

"Grandma might be very dissatisfied!" Sheffield chuckled. After trying to persuade the servants to no avail, he asked the servants to prepare dinner. He followed you to the docking place of the airship. He watched his wife go up and said, "Fly at low altitude, pay attention to safety.

Land immediately if the weather is bad."

During the period when David Griffith was filming at Oak Manor, Sheffield and others were of course rare in putting down their arrogance and cooperating. At first, Sheffield thought that Gale and McHale might not be interested in this matter, but he and others

After talking to the other party, I realized that everyone is very interested in such things as whitewashing.

It's even okay for a few people to sit together and study how to whitewash the situation while making the federal army less positive.

This is no problem at all. From the perspective of the South, the image of the Union Army is not very positive. Of course, the role of Martin Luther King has not been forgotten. In the civil war of this plane, the Texas Army shined

In the first battle after his debut, Martin Luther King I led the black battalion to surrender to the enemy, and then led the Texas Army to counterattack the Midwestern federal army that threatened Texas.

Among the Confederates, Texas entered the war relatively late, but it was premeditated. That year, Martin Luther King I directly killed the 35th Black Division of the Union Army, shocking the entire Union Army.

"According to your opinion, how does this movie end? We ultimately lose the war." McHale nodded and asked another question with a wry smile.

"You should know that our United States is independent from the rule of the British. We have never had much trust in the government structure, so the public has always been the soil for conspiracy theories. We film some things that conspiracy theorists like." Sheffield

Touching his chin, he said, "For example, we can make the shooting of Lincoln's death a little more ambiguous, so that people with different stances will come to different conclusions after watching the movie. For example, Republican voters will feel that they are Republican after seeing this scene.

Someone inside colluded with the Confederacy to assassinate Lincoln."

"The brief space that concerns the federal government is mainly about the issues of state rights and central power. The economic emphasis is different on the economic foundation. A three-year-old child can break a piece of cotton thread, but it is so powerful that it can strangle the world. There is less emphasis on liberation.

The Black Slave Manifesto is not important at all. After this movie comes out, it will be promoted under the guise of historical truth." Sheffield said with a crazy smile, "At that time, the media will focus on reporting a wave of black crime rates.

Question, warm up for the movie."

How Lincoln died can be used for entertainment. The President established the Secret Service a few hours before his death. He also sent additional security personnel on the way to the assassination site. As long as these two points are filmed in the movie, Sheffield

I believe that citizens of the United States who are keen on conspiracy theories will come up with an answer.

"Who said Lincoln's assassination had something to do with the South? I don't admit it." Sheffield chuckled and wondered what happened to the former president? He even killed Lincoln's son.

There was a lively discussion among several descendants of slave owners, and the movie actors brought by David Griffith also temporarily lived in Oak Manor. Sheffield could always see these actors wandering around his own manor.

The slave owner walks his dog every evening, sometimes with Natalia, sometimes by himself.

"Mr. William, are you out for a walk again?" Mary Pickford, wearing a light-colored dress, asked with a sweet smile on the only way to walk her dog in Sheffield. She seemed to have been waiting here for a long time.

"Oh, Mary?" Sheffield tightened the rope without leaving any trace. The slave owner didn't quite believe that his dog could meet a stranger so quickly. There was no special reason, just like he couldn't trust anyone when he had diarrhea.

Like fart.

Mary Pickford was much more relaxed than the cautious Sheffield. She glanced around and said, "Why are you out walking alone today? Where is Miss Natalia? But having said that, she is really a beautiful lady. I just got here.

At that time, I thought your wife was Miss Natalia."

"To be precise, it's one of them!" Sheffield found a tree to tie up the dog, and looked up and down at the first-generation American sweetheart. She was pretty, but really beautiful. She was the same type as the Gish sisters. Maybe this was the twentieth century.

I think it's the original mainstream aesthetic. When looking for actors, I look for people like this.

Sheffield could tell what the other party was paying attention to just by looking at her eyes. The purpose was too obvious. He coughed softly and said, "Miss Mary, with your current weekly salary, you can do it without relying on anyone."

I live a good life and am relatively free. If I were you, I would go back to the villa to sleep and wait for the filming cycle to end."

"Why should I do this? I think I am also a very attractive lady." Mary Pickford took a step forward and almost pressed against Sheffield, "It's just that some ordinary people think I'm enviable, you guys

The bosses who make guest appearances are truly enviable."

Sheffield lit a cigar and was about to put it back when he saw Mary Pickford taking out a cigar cutter and sighed, "Miss Mary, you are only a few years older than my child, don't have such thoughts.

Many very old rich people have no feelings for a long time. If you find a second-generation man with good conditions, they might fall in love with you. My friends and I have ten thousand ways to make you fall in love.
