HONG KONG and SANTA MONICA, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 10/02/08 -- Archer Entertainment Media
Communications, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: AEMC) (www.archeremc.com) (ISIN
US039490107) revealed today that it has officially started up its motion
picture division by researching film locations and logistics for the
forthcoming filming of their debut epic movie, "Kings of the Sea," in
Thailand. Michael Selsman, Archer CEO, said that Archer will work closely
with government officials and the Thailand Government Film Office in
negotiations for sites, film crews and local casting. "This is the first of
what is planned to be a 10-picture production schedule we will be producing
over the next six years in various locations utilizing international tax
treaty financing," Selsman noted.
David Wardlow, Archer President of Production, will oversee all aspects of
the venture. "Visually one of the most exciting places on the planet, the
islands in the Andaman Sea in Western Thailand offer dramatic scenery and
calm waters as well as a low-cost friendly filming environment," he
observed.
The drama with comedic overtones will presage much of the same East-West
competition over land and sea dominance and political hegemony that exist
today, and depicts the adventures of the famed pirate, Edward Teach, alias
Blackbeard, and his heretofore unknown encounters with Admiral Zheng He, a
Chinese Muslim, along the coast of South America. "The Thai Islands are
the perfect setting for the ocean adventure of 'Kings of the Sea,'" Selsman
pointed out. "The strange and beautiful limestone scenery around this area
contains a secret world of caves, tunnels and interior lagoons, and will
showcase to the world what an amazing destination Thailand offers."
Zheng commanded the largest naval fleet in the world that included
twenty-eight thousand sailors on three hundred ships, the longest of which
were four hundred feet long. Their mission was "to proceed all the way to
the end of the earth to collect tribute from the barbarians beyond the
seas" and unite the whole world in Confucian harmony. Their journey circled
the globe, and new evidence shows that Chinese ships had reached America
seventy years before Columbus.
