"Jingle bells, jingle bells......" "Hello, this is the ...... of 'Globo Brasil'"

"Jingle bells, jingle bells......" "Good afternoon...... Sorry, the editor-in-chief is in a meeting right now and doesn't have time to answer the phone for the time being......"

"Jingle bell, jingle bell......" "Sorry, Martin Artur is not in position right now, please call back later, okay?"

The entire office of the "Brazilian Globo" is occupied by noisy telephone ringtones, and the ringtones of landlines and mobile phones are staggered, like a third-rate symphony, which just makes people feel more and more irritable, and they want to get angry all the time, but before the anger can be vented, the bell rings again, directly interrupted, and the kind of grievance almost makes people have a fire in their chests, which may explode at any time.

Since yesterday's "Globo Brasil" reported on the events in the City of God with a terrifying front-page headline, the entire editorial room has been fried, and the phone calls have been increasing since 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and the ringing of the phones has hardly stopped since I went to work today.

After reading the newspaper, almost all the residents of Rio de Janeiro were in danger, although they had always had a clear understanding of the security in the area of the City of God, but now, even the American crew has been threatened with their lives, and the imminent crisis and fear have caused many people to be in turmoil, so that a small number of foreign tourists have directly begun to book tickets and prepare to leave Rio de Janeiro - not on a large scale, and more people still do not pay too much attention to it, and are still enjoying the beauty and comfort of Rio de Janeiro's beautiful coastline.

Rio de Janeiro is far from being in turmoil, but it is already slowly fermenting, and there is an air of anxiety and unease among the city's residents.

The slums, including the City of God, have long been notorious for poor law and order, chaotic order, sudden shootings, dirty drugs, and unsolved murders...... This qiē has long been a problem for the municipal government of Rio de Janeiro, but fortunately, it is fortunate that it is still confined to the slums and has not spread significantly. Rio de Janeiro seems to be divided into two worlds, a sun-drenched resort and a dark, turbulent subhell.

But now, this kind of turmoil is out of the control of that area of the City of God, and it is beginning to detonate, and no one can predict what kind of consequences it will lead to next.

Since last year's "911 incident" in the United States, there has been a lot of noise around the world, and Western countries are all vigilant about the emergence of the next terrorist attack; although relatively backward countries such as South America and Africa have not all the grass and trees, the turmoil and turbulence in their countries are very obvious, and criminals are ready to move one after another, and the slightest disturbance will make the common people agitated.

When people realized that the gangsters in the City of God were directly carrying heavy weapons and roaming around them, they had even threatened the life of a crew, and this was a crew from the United States. The possibility of that uneasiness coming in an instant, turning into a terrorist attack or an international incident, makes things even more tricky.

As a result, residents of Rio de Janeiro began to frantically call the Globo Brasil hotline, some to report suspicious incidents in their neighborhood, and the constant phone calls almost turned the Globo newspaper's office into an emergency response center.

Not only residents of Rio de Janeiro, Globo Brasil is currently one of the top five best-selling newspapers in Brazil, with an average sales of 3 million, covering all major cities in Brazil.

What's even more serious is that the incident has already alarmed the Rio de Janeiro municipal/government, police/prosecutor's office, etc., and they received the news as soon as possible, and they all started to act in shock, trying to grasp as much information as possible before the US embassy is held accountable. But apparently, things went far beyond imagination, and yesterday's issue of the Brazilian Globe sold 5.9 million copies in just one day, the highest sales since the beginning of the 21st century -- which means that the U.S. Embassy was the first to know the news.

"How did things get to this point!" In the editor-in-chief's office, the editor-in-chief's roaring roar stirred up a wave that caused all the staff to turn their heads in astonishment, cast their eyes away, and lit three sticks of wax for Martin Artur, who was bearing all the wrath of the editor-in-chief inside, and for a moment only the echoing of the telephone ringing.

The same question, Calvin Johansen was also stunned, "How did things get to this point?" ”

The day before yesterday, everything was going according to the predetermined trajectory, and although it was an unexpected situation for reporters, the reporters only arrived for a while, and then quickly left, and not long after that, the "City of God" crew called it a day, and the first day of filming was only halfway before it was forced to stop.

Calvin thought that Chicken Thief Man/Nur had successfully stopped the filming of "City of God", and that Lance would not be able to figure out a way to do it, at least for a while.

But in just 24 hours, why did things turn upside down and get out of control?

Yesterday, a total of 18 media outlets reported on the same news event: ** forces violently interrupted the filming of the "City of God". This is expected, when he saw the reporter at the shooting site, Calvin had already foreseen such a situation, but what caught Calvin off guard was that the news invariably mentioned that the lives of the crew members were threatened, and the ** forces also showed off their might to the media and directly threatened the media with force!

This immediately escalated the whole incident, from a small incident of ** members collecting protection money or expelling outsiders from their own territory to ** forces lawless, not only threatening the crew members, but also blatantly confronting the media. Any slight difference can lead to a national-level event, or even an international event.

So, in less than 48 hours, the whole of Brazil has been in an uproar, and the prime-time news of major Brazilian TV stations have reported the incident, fortunately, there have been no casualties so far, so that the incident has not escalated further, otherwise it would not be a domestic excitement in Brazil now.

Even so, Calvin is clearly aware that now that things have completely detached from the accusation, this is not something that stealing chicken man/nu/er can control zhì, nor is it something that Lance can control, let alone that he can control zhì. If one is not careful, he will still involve himself, and maybe he will not see the sunrise tomorrow.

So, did the task Ryan give him succeed or fail? Calvin's head was a mess and he couldn't think at all, and his only thought now was: leave Rio de Janeiro!

"How did things get to this point?" Man/Nu/Er was also asking the same question, but the "thinkers" standing in front of him were speechless, not knowing how to answer.

Man/Nu/Er saw his own photos on the front pages of the major news outlets, and because he was illiterate, he could only learn the facts through the pictures. His first instinct was triumphant, for it was finally known that he was the greatest force in the whole slum, and that several other forces had to unite to contend with him, and now he wanted others to know - not to mention, it was the first time in his life that he had appeared in a newspaper, and the sense of pride and pride that made him excited.

This mood lasted until the evening, when the prime-time news reports on the television station made Man/Nu/Er realize that this was not something to be happy about, that they were considered terrorists, that their gun possession was considered provocation, that their existence was considered a cancer in society, that the whole city was now in danger and that the unrest was spreading.

Man/Nu/Er almost flew into a rage, and wanted to grab a machine gun and go out to shoot, but he could not find anyone to vent his anger, so he could only fire with his own men. Obviously, he went out to show favor to the media reporters at Lance's request, but why did things turn out like this?

That's right, Lance!

It occurred to Man/Nur that Lance was right, that "City of God" had to be filmed, because everyone else was prejudiced against them and didn't want to get to know them at all, so they needed "City of God", a work that really showed their good and bad, good and bad, good and bad.

Thinking of this, Man/Nu/Er stood up with excitement, he needed to go to see Lance, he needed to support Lance with all his might! But...... A figure flashed through Man/Nu's mind, "What about Calvin?" And what about Calvin from the United States? It's all because of him, and if it weren't for him, we wouldn't have fallen out with Mr. Strello, and we wouldn't have attracted those hateful media, that shameless bitch/son! Where is he? Get him! ”

"How did things get to this point?"

Martin raised his head and looked at the enraged editor-in-chief in front of him, the red veins were about to burst almost at any moment, and the monstrous rage was surging and almost devouring him. Martin couldn't help but curse in his heart: How do I know? When you submitted the manuscript the night before yesterday, you originally reviewed it, and you nodded the headlines on the front page, but now that things are getting bigger, you can use me to cut it!

However, thinking about it, Martin did not complain, but said seriously, "This shows that our goal has been achieved, everything we have reported is true, we are uncovering the scars that the Rio municipal government is most reluctant to face little by little, and now, everyone is watching our every move, we represent the people power of the whole city and the whole country, and we have the responsibility and obligation to go deeper." ”

After saying this, Martin saw that the editor-in-chief's eyes were about to fall out, and he quickly added, "We can go directly to the crew, and then contact those Americans, believe me, they will be very willing to cooperate, we can follow their cameras, go deep into the city of God for more interviews!" ”
