American comics: I drew Superman during the Great Depression
Chapter 114 English Tax
[Faith (11673/10000)]
Two days later, on a long-distance train to Los Angeles.
Colin opened his eyes and looked at the [Faith] displayed on the text, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
During the Great Depression, communications were not very developed, and the most commonly used methods of communication were letters and telegrams.
Limited by communications, Colin on the train naturally could not know what happened in New York City at the first time, let alone the panic caused by the new issue of "Superman" he serialized.
For him, it was just sitting on the train, a round trip between the positive and negative worlds.
In the blink of an eye, [Faith] exceeded 10,000 and is still growing.
"I didn't expect that the plot of the Prank King is so popular?"
Muttering to himself, Colin withdrew his eyes from the [Faith] on the text and then fell on the other side.
[Ability - Super Speed (Black Iron)]
[Ability description: Superman's first appearance was faster than a Mercedes train, and then faster than a bullet. In the latest comics, Superman can run almost as fast as sound.]
Supersonic?
In the new issue, in addition to the growth of [Faith] that was somewhat beyond Colin's expectations, [Super Speed] was one of the abilities he was originally planning to unlock.
I don't know if it is because of the [Black Iron] level limit, the newly unlocked [Super Speed] ability is limited to subsonic speed.
Colin had expected this.
After all, in the comics, he simply described the plot of Superman flipping through books at a very fast speed, and the subsequent ability settings were completely supplemented by text.
On the speeding train, Colin turned his head and looked at the scenery outside the window.
If possible, he would be happy to compare with the train to see how far his unlocked [Super Speed] has reached. Although the text description clearly mentioned that his initial speed had exceeded the train, he still couldn't have a clear sense of reality without a real comparison.
However, considering the suppression of abilities in the positive world and the high cost of the train ticket.
Colin finally gave up the idea.
After all, he spent money, so why bother chasing the train like those "passengers" hanging on the train outside.
...
Los Angeles, outside the Central Station.
Luo Yin Disney took out a handkerchief to wipe the tiny beads of sweat on his forehead, straightened his hat, stood in the hall of the train entrance, and silently waited for Colin's arrival.
In the previous issue, the linkage effect of Superman and Mickey was amazing.
Not only did the sales of Superman dolls in New York City have a gratifying effect, but even the sales of peripheral toys and books drawn by Mickey also increased by more than 30% year-on-year, and Disney also received an application for the authorization of Pluto. Obviously, this cartoon dog was also affected by the linkage comics, although the price offered by the other party was not high.
However, Pluto is not a cartoon character that Disney focuses on.
It is precisely because of the benefits of the linkage that Luo Yin Disney is willing to wait for Colin's arrival in the high temperature under the sun in May in Los Angeles.
Although, the main purpose of Colin's trip to Los Angeles this time is not Disney.
However, Luo Yin has also made preparations and intends to use this meeting to persuade the other party to develop a deeper cooperation between Disney and the Messenger. Even, Luo Yin Disney is ready to give up the franchise of Mickey Mouse comics.
Anyway, for Disney, animation is the focus.
As for the rest, Luo Yin would not mind transferring it as long as it can be exchanged for enough benefits.
In front of the train station, when Luo Yin was thinking about how to persuade the other party.
His eyes inadvertently noticed the familiar figure walking out of the station. The other party was wearing a white shirt and carrying a suitcase through the crowd. It was the guest that Luo Yin was waiting for here.
"Colin, long time no see."
Seeing this, Luo Yin no longer hesitated and immediately stepped forward to greet him.
"Long time no see, Luo Yin."
Seeing Luo Yin waiting outside the train station, Colin's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, but he quickly restrained it, smiled and shook hands with him and said with a smile.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Considering the distance from New York to Los Angeles, Luo Yin took the initiative to take the suitcase from Colin's hand and said, "I have booked a hotel, you can have a good rest and sleep."
"Gene Era"
Faced with Luo Yin's warm hospitality, Colin did not show a refusal attitude.
Sitting in the car driven by Luo Yin, on the way to the hotel, Colin's eyes were withdrawn from the street view of Los Angeles outside the car and looked at Luo Yin Disney in the driver's seat.
Colin had some vague guesses about the enthusiasm shown by the other party.
Although he had the idea of cooperation in his heart, Luo Yin was very restrained and did not say it at the first time.
Take Colin to the hotel that he had booked.
"I will come at nine o'clock tomorrow morning... Before that, you can have a good rest..."
At the door of Room 309, Luo Yin briefly explained to Colin, then turned and left, without disturbing his thoughts too much.
Watching the other person's back disappearing around the corner of the corridor, Colin silently withdrew his gaze.
He carried the suitcase and walked into the room.
Colin closed the door, picked up the newspaper on the suitcase and opened it.
The Los Angeles Times is the largest daily newspaper in the western United States. Its influence and status are second only to the New York Times and the Washington Post, and it is known as the third largest newspaper in the United States.
This is what he just requested at the hotel front desk. He has been on a long train for several days in a row, and he needs to know what has happened during this period.
"... More than hundreds of independent merchants in Los Angeles have united to protest against the government."
The wave of unemployment during the Great Depression has continued, not only in New York, but also in Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles Times briefly reported the news of business bankruptcy. According to statistics, more than dozens of small workshops in Los Angeles have gone bankrupt because they are unable to support themselves since May alone, and this phenomenon has spread to large chain shopping malls.
"The protests caused by the English tax are still going on. In addition to New York, there are also a small number of protest groups in Los Angeles. People are worried about their livelihoods, and many people are unable to pay more taxes. Although the New York government has stated that it will not continue to collect taxes on the use of English, this is completely illegal and a fabricated event, but there are still many people who are skeptical about it..."
"English tax?!"
Looking at the news reported openly on the sub-page of the Los Angeles Times, Colin showed a strange expression on his face.
So, this is the truth behind his sudden and substantial growth in [faith].
