Chapter 692: Staring at Him

The sharp scissors flickered with cold light, and as Daisy's fingers slowly opened, revealing a chilling blade, the blade was smooth and flat, and under the illumination of the light, Daisy's skin was extraordinarily white, and the blood vessels above could be seen through the skin.

The open scissors are getting closer and closer to Daisy's neck, and the hairs on several veins seem to sense danger and immediately stand up!

Eventually, the sharp scissors stopped near the major artery in the neck!

Daisy's fingers were forced, the scissors opened to the limit, and then cut down quickly, a clear grinding sound sounded, the two sharp blades were re-kneaded together, and then something was broken.

The scissors opened again, Daisy raised her left hand, and sent a wisp of gold between the blades, and with a 'click' sound, another strand of long blonde hair fell to the ground, covering the hair that had fallen to the ground before.

The young girl was like crazy, the scissors in her hand kept opening and closing, and the beautiful long golden hair kept falling, and the strands of hair fluttered in the air, like countless golden rain falling from the sky, slowly falling to the ground, embellishing the floor of the dressing room with a little golden light.

Perhaps because she often takes care of her own hair, Daisy only took a few minutes to cut off her long blonde hair, and it took more than half an hour to arrange the rest of her hair into the meticulous hairstyle of the magician in "Dark City" with the cooperation of scissors, combs and hairspray.

"That's pretty much it!" Daisy smiled with satisfaction, grabbed a colored ** ball and threw it to catch it, "It seems that something is still missing." ”

She's a woman after all, and she's not as crazy as James Franco just because of her looks.

Looks and temperament are not enough, then equip to make up, Daisy walked out of the dressing room, came to the storage room, opened the entrance to the underground storage room, and slowly entered the basement.

This basement is not large, Daisy usually comes down, whether it is the stairs or the walls, she has cleaned them clean, almost spotless.

The basement was empty, except that directly opposite the entrance, there was a large metal cabinet, Daisy walked over and opened it directly, and the inventory inside the cabinet revealed its true appearance, it was an old AR-15 rifle, in addition to two Glock pistols, and a few things that looked like hand grenades.

Daisy removed the rifle, removed the magazine a little stiffly, and looked at the chamber again to make sure that it was not yet maintenance-free.

Because the movies she likes to watch are all Murphy Stanton's black violence films, and there are always a lot of violent scenes such as gunfights in the film, Daisy joined a gun club early to learn some skills in shooting and firearms, but she is far more interested in movies than guns, and the club has only been to it a few times, and she is not particularly familiar with firearms.

The guns in the basement were all ordered by her through the black channels of the Internet, in the United States, it is very troublesome to hold a gun without a license, but it is not very difficult to buy a gun.

After taking the two guns and looking at them side by side, and seeing that they didn't need maintenance, Daisy closed the storage cabinet, turned around and left the basement, went to the dressing room and took off the magician's costume, but when she saw her hairstyle in the mirror, all her thoughts were once again occupied by the magician, and she simply left the house and drove to the gun club she joined.

The Gun Club wasn't far away, and Daisy walked through the door after about half an hour.

"Welcome!" The security guard at the door looked at the membership card she handed over and said respectfully, "The Colt Club provides you with the best service." ”

Daisy nodded, wore this super cool hairstyle, walked into the club, found the coach who taught her before, and started shooting practice again.

It wasn't until it got dark that she left the place, and when she got into the car again, she shook her head repeatedly, apparently very dissatisfied with her shooting skills.

"I knew that I would practice more." Daisy slapped the steering wheel in annoyance, "It's not as easy to shoot as you thought!" ”

She started the car and made a decision, in the past two days, in addition to going to the theater to watch "Dark City" and the magician a few more times, she must come to the club to practice guns, especially the AR-15 rifle!

As soon as the sun rose on Sunday, after a long Saturday in the middle of the night, His Excellency Archbishop Márquez-Costello arrived at his office in Santa Monica.

He sat down behind his desk, found no papers on it, and asked, "Is there anything urgent today?" ”

The assistant who came in quickly replied, "No." ”

Archbishop Márquez Costello waved his hand at him, and the assistant was about to go out, but was stopped by another shout, "Do you know any newspaper with box office statistics for Hollywood movies?" ”

"Uh......" the assistant said, not understanding what he was going to do, "it should be on the entertainment page of the Los Angeles Times." ”

"Bring me one." Archbishop Márquez-Costello commanded.

Last night, he was at a high-end party, like the one in the Los Angeles area, where Hollywood personalities, and some guys who were interested in the film industry, were talking about a film all night -- Murphy Stanton's "Dark City"!

"Murphy Stanton is going to be a god!"

"After this film, he can stand shoulder to shoulder with James Cameron!"

These are all things that Archbishop Márquez Costello heard, and he still knows something about what James Cameron is.

Hearing that this bastard who slandered and cheated Catholicism was still climbing to a higher place, he felt very uncomfortable.

Although Murphy Stanton has been listed as extremely unfriendly to Catholicism from the Vatican to North America to the Diocese of South-Central California, no suitable point of counteraction can be found.

Now he can only endure for the time being, but Archbishop Márquez-Costello also knows that if he wants to find a chance to fight back, he must pay attention to the dynamics of the other side in time, and his film work is certainly no exception.

The assistant quickly brought a copy of the Los Angeles Times, and by the time he put it on the desk in front of Archbishop Márquez Costello, the newspaper had already flipped to the entertainment section, and the front page of the page was about "The Dark City"!

Obviously, this assistant is also a caring person.

Archbishop Márquez Costello put aside the messy thoughts for a while, quickly skimmed the front-page headlines, and felt the urge to open his mouth and curse, this bastard named Murphy Stanton, whose luck was so good that he set a new record in the history of North American cinema.

That bastard should be making a lot of money, right? Archbishop Márquez-Costello was somewhat envious in addition to his anger.

All because that number is so staggering.

According to a report by the Los Angeles Times, "Dark City" collected $75.5 million from North America on Saturday, that is, yesterday, and trampled all the past Saturday box office figures in North America, setting a new single-day box office record for North American Saturdays!

Even with a simple understanding of the film industry, Archbishop Márquez Costello is well aware that such single-day box office figures cannot be described as 'terrifying'.

After reading the report, sitting quietly and thinking for a while, Archbishop Márquez-Costello called in his assistant.

"Make people stare at Murphy Stanton." He said very directly, "The news about him is sorted out every three days and sent to me." ”

The assistant nodded, "Yes!" ”

With the arrival of Sunday, the popularity of "Dark City" continues to decline, and it is impossible for any movie to maintain a single-day output of more than $100 million for too long, and the flat decline itself is a normal reaction of the market.

"Dark City" has become the most talked about entertainment topic in the whole of North America, and this film has attracted not only Murphy's fans and the fans of "City of Chaos" before, but more passers-by and audiences have also bought tickets and walked into theaters because of the explosive word-of-mouth and continuous topics.

Two days after the release of the film, the unwilling lonely media even began to hype James Franco's performance in order to win attention and attention, and he was fully eligible for an Oscar nomination and took away an Oscar acting statuette.

Of course, behind all this hype is also the shadow of Stanton Studios and Twentieth Century Fox.

However, in addition to a series of good news, it is not without bad news, such as the vast market on the other side of the Pacific, because the theme of the film and part of the plot involves the relationship between Hong Kong, which has not yet been approved, Twentieth Century Fox is still working public relations, and it is still unknown whether "Dark City" can be released in theaters in that market.

In addition, the theme of the film is too heavy, and the magician is too crazy in the film, resulting in "Dark City" despite its PG-13 rating, it has sparked a discussion in some media that it should be classified as R, and even the National Federation of Teachers and Parents has publicly proposed that teenagers under the age of 16 should watch the film under the age of 16.

These troubles are not too big, but they have to be dealt with in a timely manner, but fortunately, Twentieth Century Fox, as a distributor, has enough ability and experience, after all, every blockbuster movie in Hollywood is generated, and there are always quite a lot of troubles that come with it.

Now that the film is still in theaters, Murphy and Kara Firth are ready, and the two of them are very sure that in the future, there will definitely be a certain screenwriter or unknown writer who will jump out and shout that "Dark City" has stolen their ideas, infringed copyrights, etc......

These have even become the situation that every Hollywood blockbuster movie must face.

On Sunday, Murphy split the cast in two, with Gal Gadot leading the cast led by Margot Robbie and Henry Cavill to overseas regions, and he teamed up with James Franco and Christopher Waltz to run announcements across North America.
