Chapter 256 Public Interview (1/2)

"...Mr. Colin Looper, what do you think about the TV patent issue recently promoted by the American Radio Corporation?"

"Mr. Colin Looper, some people think that you used unethical means to cheat the TV patent..."

"It is said that the American Radio Corporation has officially filed a patent lawsuit and publicly stated its position in the newspaper, threatening to win this TV patent case and promote the production and manufacturing of TVs. What do you think about this, Mr. Colin Looper?"

In the positive world, in front of the Courier Newspaper.

A large number of reporters came forward and rushed to interview Colin.

Little John behind him took a camera and took a picture of this scene, which will be the front page of tomorrow's "Daily Courier".

"Mr. Colin Looper, you have been reluctant to appear in front of the media for some time. Are you afraid of failing the patent lawsuit and becoming a thief of the TV patent?"

A reporter approached Colin and asked sharply.

Looking in the direction of the question, as an ace reporter who has won the Pulitzer Prize for Anti-World, Colin will naturally not get angry easily because of the other party's low-level provocation.

"First of all, I want to correct you. I have never been unwilling to appear in front of the media. In fact, the Daily Courier has published reports related to patent litigation every day during this period of time. If New York citizens want to know the progress of the incident, they can learn about it through the Daily Courier."

In front of reporters from various newspapers, Colin promoted his newspaper and continued without paying attention to the expressions on their faces: "Secondly, the patent for televisions has belonged to Mr. Ferro Farnsworth from the beginning. This is a fact guaranteed by the US government's patent certification. On the contrary, it is the American Radio Corporation that has been promoting it in newspapers and media. They have never produced any relevant evidence to prove their point of view."

Colin's previous answer may cause dissatisfaction among major New York reporters, but after hearing his subsequent response, reporters rushed to ask questions. From the meaning of Colin's words, it is obvious that he has doubted or dissatisfied with the American Radio Corporation, and this is exactly what the reporters are pursuing.

"Mr. Colin Luper, did you mean that the American Radio Corporation was the one who stole the patent?"

"Please tell me your opinion in detail, Mr. Colin Luper. Does this mean that you are confident that you can win this lawsuit?"

Faced with the noisy reporters' questions, Colin did not answer immediately. He just stood at the door of the Courier Newspaper and watched them quietly.

Feeling the meaning conveyed by Colin's eyes, some reporters gradually stopped their actions. As they regained their composure, Colin continued to reply: "Yes, the American Radio Corporation was the one who stole the patent."

Since they have already torn their faces and fought a legal battle, Colin naturally has no intention of speaking well for his opponent.

And his remarks, as expected, caused a huge uproar among reporters. They looked at Colin in front of them with excited expressions, and they could already imagine how much influence the public opinion would cause after the newspaper was published.

However, looking at Little John behind Colin, some reporters felt a little helpless.

If possible, they naturally hope that such news reports will have as few reporters as possible, but Colin Luper controls one of the largest newspapers in New York City, which undoubtedly greatly weakens the value of this news in their hands.

Having said that, they are still unwilling to let go of the relevant news reports.

"Mr. Colin Luper, has your speech proved your attitude towards this patent lawsuit? Will you win this lawsuit?"

Even the American Radio Corporation, which is destined to lose, dares to publicize the victory in the media, let alone Colin. In the original history, even without his intervention, Ferro Farnsworth won the lawsuit, but because it was delayed for too long, Ferro proved his identity as the inventor of the patent, but missed the protection period of the television patent production.

He could only watch the American Radio Corporation mass-produce televisions later.

"There is only one result of this patent lawsuit, and that is my victory. I believe that it will not be long before the whole New York City will know this result."

After saying the last words in front of the reporters, Colin ignored their requests to stay and left the newspaper office.

Although during this period, some reporters wanted to stop him, it was obvious that with Colin's current strength, even if all the reporters in front of the newspaper office were added together, it was still unclear whether he could stop him.

...

"Go to Brooklyn."

After passing through the crowd of reporters, Colin got into the car and told the driver in the driver's seat the address.

Nodding, the driver started the car and drove away in the flash of the reporters' cameras.

During this period, affected by the patent lawsuit, in order to avoid these all-pervasive reporters and media, Colin had to prepare a special means of transportation for himself to move in daily life.

As a well-known newspaper tycoon in New York City today, this is actually something Colin should have prepared long ago.

However, his own ability made him ignore this point.

After all, when you have more convenient abilities like [super speed] or [flight], cars become a bit of a burden.

If it weren't for the fact that his abilities were suppressed in the anti-world, Colin might not have prepared the car.

"How is the new factory going?"

Looking at the newspaper office that was getting farther and farther behind him through the rearview mirror, Colin immediately asked Louise Walton beside him.

"The preliminary reconstruction has been completed, and the relevant TV production line has officially entered the design. Mr. Ferro Farnsworth also gave suggestions. The factory is actively correcting according to his requirements and strives to complete the establishment of the TV production line within a month..."

"One month is too long, half a month, I will only give the factory half a month, so that they can complete the manufacturing of the TV production line before the patent lawsuit with the American Radio Corporation."

"Half a month?"

Hearing Colin's request, Louise Walton hesitated, but quickly nodded.

"I will notify the workers to speed up the progress."

Hearing the answer, Colin nodded and retracted his gaze, and Louise Walton beside him also breathed a sigh of relief.

Louise Walton is the mother of the mother and daughter that Colin saved in the sandstorm.

After learning about her work experience in Broadway, Colin directly invited her, and Louise Walton, who had a hard life in New York, agreed without hesitation.

Colin hired Louise Walton, of course, for his own considerations.

He has never given up on Paramount, and he has actively established connections by attending Hollywood parties before. Now he hired Louise because of her performance experience in Broadway. She has rich experience in Hollywood. If Colin wants to develop in the film industry in the future, he can obviously recruit actors through her.

According to Louise Walton, there are thousands of Broadway actors who lost their jobs due to the Great Depression, which is obviously a potential talent pool.

At the same time, Louise Walton is also a single mother.

With her daughter's concern, the other party will at least not have too many problems.

Judging from the situation in the previous sandstorm, Louise Walton loves her daughter very much.

Of course, many of these arrangements will not be officially implemented until Paramount acquires the company. At present, the studio that Colin has been thinking about is still in the stage of bankruptcy liquidation.

Colin can only temporarily arrange Louise Walton to be by his side to help him deal with some daily trivial tasks, such as the progress of the new factory.

Louise Walton did not complain at all.

As a single mother who lives alone in New York, she cherishes the opportunity given by Colin. At the same time, because Colin had saved her daughter in a sandstorm before, Louise Walton obeyed Colin's work requirements.

...

"We are here, sir."

In front of the new factory not far from the Messenger Machinery Factory in Brooklyn, the driver stopped the car and reminded Colin in the back seat.

[Faith (91505/100000)]

Open your eyes and take your eyes away from the growing [Faith] column on the text.

During this period of time, his media war with the American radio company has attracted a lot of attention from New York citizens, indirectly boosted the sales of the Daily Courier, and brought him a lot of [faith].

"The Courier TV Factory"

Colin got off the car and took a look at the sign on the factory.

That's right, after returning from San Francisco, he arranged for people to prepare for the new factory early, in order to produce TVs as soon as possible.

"You're here, Colin."

Coming out of the factory, Ferro Farnsworth smiled and greeted Colin.

Since a factory dedicated to producing TVs is to be built, the assistance of Ferro Farnsworth, the patent inventor, is naturally indispensable. Although Colin can also do this, considering the time it takes, he still handed the matter over to Ferro Farnsworth.

In addition, Ferro Farnsworth does need to come to New York for the patent lawsuit filed by the American radio company.

"How is the production of the TV going?"

After shaking hands with Ferro Farnsworth, Colin immediately turned the topic to the production of the TV.

"The production of the TV is the key to the next lawsuit."

"It has been roughly completed."

As the actual owner of the TV patent, Ferro Farnsworth naturally could not let the American Radio Corporation take it and spend three years to replicate the results.

With the prototype as support, Ferro Farnsworth had already manufactured the TV that Colin needed in just half a month.

"I am currently debugging the image and trying to make the newly made TV clearer in the image screen..."

Speaking of this, Ferro Farnsworth was extremely glad that he had listened to Colin's advice and cooperated with the other party to produce TVs.

If it was just him, or perhaps those investors.

Facing the overwhelming media publicity and legal proceedings of the American Radio Corporation, he might have lost the idea of ​​resistance.

Even if he won the lawsuit in the end, he would still be scarred.

I would never think of discussing adjustments to TV products like this.

In the laboratory prepared for Ferro Farnsworth in the factory, Colin saw the newly manufactured TV set.

Compared with the prototype he had seen in San Francisco before, this TV set was closer to the appearance of the old-fashioned TV set in Colin's cognition. Through the TV screen, they could already see relatively clear black and white images.

Standing aside, Louise Walton watched the content played on the TV. Although this was not her first time watching TV images, she would sigh from the bottom of her heart every time she saw Louise Walton.

Who would have thought that this small machine could actually achieve the same effect as a movie.

In the future, once TV sets become popular, will it mean that ordinary people can experience the same feeling as in a movie theater at home?

In addition to the TV set, Colin also saw the new electronic camera upgraded by Ferro Farnsworth.

The size of this machine is quite large, at least three or four times larger than the camera in Colin's memory. It has a lens with a focal length of 1.6 meters, and its weight alone reaches 45 kilograms, and its length reaches 2.2 meters.

A camera of this size is obviously not something that can be picked up by a cameraman alone. In fact, early electronic cameras all have special wheels to move with.

While paying attention to the production of Ferro Farnsworth's television, Colin did not give up his attention to the camera.

Because he knew that if televisions wanted to be popular, the matching cameras were also the key.

Convenient cameras can make the shooting and broadcasting of TV programs more convenient, thereby promoting the enthusiasm of radio stations to produce TV programs.

Therefore, in the laboratory, Colin deliberately had a conversation with Ferro Farnsworth, revealing his ideas about the miniaturization of cameras to the other party, and also intentionally or unintentionally proposed some concepts for the development of cameras.

These suggestions of Colin greatly inspired Ferro Farnsworth's invention inspiration and gave him more ideas about the upgrade of cameras.

"...I have always thought that cameras are just electronic video recording tools. The original idea of ​​designing them was to match the TV. I didn't expect that your ideas in this regard, Colin, are more groundbreaking. If we design according to your ideas, maybe cameras will replace film in the future!"
