Chapter 156 Tell the Truth
Xiao Lizi is thinking of a way to have a good relationship with Mark, otherwise, he can't rule out the possibility of killing people before filming "Batman".
A person who calmly killed two murderous bandits in one fell swoop is worth his fear, and this is not a shame.
Mark's work is a little behind now, he himself thinks that he has lost the passion of "This Man is from Earth" and "Chainsaw", and now that he is out of love, he can devote more time to work, and strive to catch up with the backward progress, with his current worth of 20 million, it is quite a luxury to fall in love.
They are now mainly filming chamber scenes, action scenes and special effects shots, Gotham City's huge city is a huge model of the cityscape, and the burned Wayne Manor and the destroyed viaduct, as well as the car crash scene (house crash) on the street are also made here.
In the past, movies were art and feelings, and now blockbusters are more like products on the industrial assembly line, and the Oscars are aggrieved by "Titanic" and "The Lord of the Rings 3", which is regarded as a performance of the academy's flattery of commercial films and bowing to commercial films, and these products on the industrial assembly line pay more attention to the team's cooperation and the use of technology. β
Now Mark feels the same way, he directs the operation crew more than sitting in front of the monitor, he has to film, follow up the production of special effects scenes, action scenes, but also keep an eye on the company's financial consumption, and occasionally ask about MM, MM is now in full bloom, not only planning to buy Marvel such a big move, but also preparing for "Musical Youth", "Chainsaw 2" TV series "Grey's Anatomy" Wait, if you really ask about everything, it's not enough to be busy for eighteen hours a day, so Mark has nothing to do, just eat and live in the crew.
The robbery of the bubble tea shop, Baker is legally responsible, and Caroline will be responsible for the social image public relations, and now it is a good hand, are you still afraid of messing up? This is politically correct at the national or social level, in a country where guns are rampant, more than 30,000 people die from guns every year in this country, and many people live under the threat of guns, and the country's constitution, civil rights, economic interests and customs cannot ban guns, dare to fight with gun-wielding bandits, and those who protect the good people are all heroes from that point of view, and the current media is eager to blow him to a national hero, but he is hated as a foreign immigrant, who grew up abroad, which makes it impossible to distinguish between patriotism and education, and there is a lot less room for play and hypeγ
However, Mark is making superhero movies, and he knows that heroes are not good and can easily be kidnapped by people's morality, so Mark and his team think that this flower hat cannot be worn, so Mark will be on "The Ellen Show".
Getting the exclusive interview rights for Mark's bubble tea shop robbery, Alan was overjoyed, she thought it was Mark in return for her strong support a few days ago, she thought her sentence: "Mark is not married yet, how many women do you do he sleep? His girlfriend didn't make a sound." She thinks the remark won Mark's favor.
On the show, Allen replayed the surveillance video released by the police, when the robbers smashed a camera, and the other hidden they didn't find it, recording the whole thrilling process, this time Mark is not as sassy as the last time he hit ten, but the danger shown in these more than ten seconds makes people feel more thrilling than watching an action blockbuster, the flying knife stabbed the robber's wrist, pulled him over as a shield, took the opportunity to kill one and then killed the shield, fast and cold, clean and neat, he also won a lot of praise for saving people for the first time.
Now the perception of the people of the United States on Mark is that he may be lustful, but he is definitely a good man.
After playing the video, Alan made a grand introduction: "Welcome to the famous director, brave hero, my friend Mark King to the show!"
The audience of more than 300 people gave a standing ovation, and Mark walked out to hug Alan and say hello to the audience before sitting down on the sofa.
Ellen again praised Mark, and then asked Mark how he felt at the time.
Mark said: "Actually, I'm not as good as you think, I can't even afford the title of hero, I didn't act like a hero at that time, I was scared, the moment the robbers rushed in, I immediately hid with my sister in my arms." β
Alan said: "Yes, your movements are beautiful and neat, and you suddenly flash to a safe corner, and you can see on the video that the audience should learn from Mark when they encounter the same thing in the future." β
Allen's well-timed interjection made the audience laugh.
Mark said: "I was really afraid, these robbers have guns in their hands, I am afraid that they will hurt Kayla, and they will hurt me, they are ruthless, they shoot people without asking for a reason, just for Liwei, I was thinking, these damn things are just for money, as long as the money and property are handed over to them, they will leave, the money is gone, there is no money to earn, life is priceless." β
"This is a normal reaction for many people when they encounter this kind of thing," Allen said. β
Mark said: " I took the initiative to hand over the belongings, hoping that they would leave as soon as possible after they were satisfied, and even when they were kidnapping the waiter's little sister, I was thinking selfishly, they would leave after getting the money and hostages, and everyone would be safe, who knew that at this time, Kayla rushed out to stop the robbers' terrible crime, she was a brave person, and this cruel robber actually raised a gun to aim at her, in this case, I can't be a turtle with a shrunken head, I would rather die myself than watch them hurt my sister, I have no choice but to take the riskγ β
Mark said this, not only Allen was surprised, but even the audience was surprised, in this fait accompli, the party is not blowing up and blowing himself into the perfect hero, while Mark is telling the truth, making people feel that this root is not a tall hero, just an ordinary person around him, if he encounters the same thing, he can do the same.
Mark said: "I also saw some remarks on the Internet, saying that I was ruthless and cruel, killed two people in a row in less than five seconds, ruined two lives, I had already grabbed the gun at that time, I could have negotiated with the robbers, and then waited for the police to come, instead of killing two people, Bi Jing You Mark is not a judge, and has no right to judge the right to live of others." β
As soon as this sentence came out, there was an uproar at the scene, and Allen also said angrily: "There is actually such a brain-dead person? The person concerned is not him, of course he said cool things, why didn't he go to Afghanistan to talk to bin Laden about this? Mark, you can completely ignore the words of this brainless person, I dare not imagine that there are such people in this world, are they trying to show their nobility for eyeballs, or do they really have no brains?"
Mark said: "In fact, the situation was very critical at that time, Gen Tai will not leave you time to think and prepare, at that time, either they die or we die, I think I want to kill them, protect Kayla and the innocent people on the scene, as for I deprive others of the right to live, I didn't think of these at the time, when the robbers entered the store and shot people, ruthless, I can't pin my hope on their willingness to negotiate, willing to compromise, if they preemptively shoot, I will definitely die more than me, I will not take this risk." β
Alan said: "I won't, as long as normal people will do this, the funny thing is that some people think that robbers have human rights, and where are the human rights of those who were killed by robbers? There are loopholes in the law at this point, and the basis of our society is mutual respect and equality, but some people ask others to respect him when they deprive people of these rights, which is very funny." β
Mark Dao: The media touted me as a hero, this kind of touting has won awards, I can't afford this title, in the face of gun-wielding bandits, I panicked and scared, and finally shot, only because my sister was in danger, so I fought hard and killed the robbers, so when others called me a hero, I felt ashamed, I didn't have superpowers, I didn't have the heart to save the world, I wasn't a hero. β
Alan was surprised again, and when others praised him, he criticized himself and rejected the honorable title, saying, "It's not good to be modest." β
Mark said: "This is not modesty, this is the real me, timid, indifferent to other people, only concerned about myself and my family." β
Alan said, "What do you say about rescuing the injured man?"
Mark said: "If the conditions allow, I can't see or not be saved. β
Alan said, "Do you know him? Do you know his name?"
Mark said, "Sorry, I don't know. β
"Martin, his name is Martin Davis, a stockbroker, he's a New Yorker, a self-driving enthusiast, and he started traveling around the country by car in the fall. β
Mark said, "He's all right, right?"
Alan said: "I learned from the hospital an hour ago that Mr. Davis woke up, he is still in the ICU ward, but he is out of danger, and his attending doctor said that it is up to you to stop the bleeding for him in time, otherwise he will not be able to support the ambulance, what do you think about this?"
Mark smiled happily and said, "I'm happy to help." β
Alan said: "Saving one person is equivalent to saving a world, are you still questioning yourself?"
Mark said: "It's all a matter of luck, like this kind of hemostatic surgery, I've only seen people do it before, this time it's completely a bit of luck, and as a result, I succeeded." β
Alan said: "People affectionately call you a hero, it's not that you killed two robbers, but that you saved a person, in Eastern Buddhist philosophy: "Saving a life is better than creating a seven-level floating map." β
"I just did what I had to do, and everyone else would do the same," Mark said. β
Alan said, "Maybe, but not everyone uses hemostats. β
Mark smiled and said, "I'm really happy to help. β
