515 See you on April Fool's Day
Matt Irving walked into the New York Stock Exchange and greeted his colleagues all the way, and there were about thirty minutes before the market opened, and the exchange seemed a little empty, but he knew that in fifteen minutes at most, the door would start to be lively.
The pantry was filled with smoke, and about seven or eight people gathered together, giggling and talking loudly, and they could only enjoy a little leisure in the early morning for a short time compared to the time when they went to work. "What are you discussing?" Matt leaned against the door, didn't mean to go in, Grimo, who was standing closest to the door, raised the lighter in his hand and asked Matt if he wanted to smoke, Matt waved his hand and said with a smile, "Is the church breaking the news again?" ”
The recent news in the Boston Globe has been a constant tsunami, with one follow-up report after another, and the parents of those children who have not yet reached adulthood have been in the mood for fear that their children too will become victims of the dark side of the church. Most of the people in the exchange are already parents, so the topic of church has not cooled down in the past ten days.
"Atmosphere buster." The man who was swearing foul was called Petty, and he raised his middle finger directly at Matt. He looks tall and big, like a wrestler, but he is a daughter spoiler through and through, and it hurts his two women to the bone. Therefore, after the outbreak of the church incident, Petty can be said to have a deep hatred for the church.
"Don't talk about such heavy topics early in the morning, it's hard to stop for two days, and the family is already tense enough." Palmer, with bubble noodles and curly hair, looks very cute like a pug, but his expression is very obscene at this time, "We are talking about the electronic display on the outside wall of MTV headquarters this morning. ”
MTV is an American cable television network that began as a television station specializing in music videos, and has since grown into a cable television station for teenagers. Their headquarters in New York is not far from Times Square, and the entire building is facaded with a large glass wall next to a large electronic display. When many pop singers' new song music videos are released, they choose to play them directly here, and the publicity effect is outstanding.
"How come I don't know when you started liking underage girls?" Matt's teasing suddenly caused everyone's uproar to sweep towards Palmer.
Palmer shook his head and shook his right index finger, "No, no, you guessed wrong this time. It's Jessica Alba who appears on the screen, remember? That pretty chick in 'The Day After Tomorrow'? Matt certainly remembers that last year's Super Bowl trailer attracted a lot of attention, and then Matt also went to the cinema to watch that movie, and met the director named Lancelot Strello for the first time. ”
Matt pouted, "If you like it, if you like." As if he didn't care at all, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Palmer immediately chased after him quickly and grabbed Matt, "I'm not done yet, it's not a music video, it's a movie." I remember you loved movies, right? Palmer pulled Matt directly into the lounge, and there was a laptop on the table next to him, which looked like it should be Palmer's personal belongings, "After I noticed the trailer, I came back to look for it, and found that this video has been circulating on the Internet for almost a whole day, and the second trailer will be released at twelve o'clock at noon today, and then ......" Palmer got out of the way and showed it to Matt, "I found this." ”
Matt frowned and looked at it seriously, there was a completely dark style page in front of him, but the page was very simple, there was not much complicated information, the page was written in a blood-drenched font, "Welcome to Sin City", and the theme of the page was a series of skulls, neatly displayed in a horizontal and vertical checkered manner, only the first skull was currently marked with a big red cross.
"Could this be some kind of hacker gathering place?" Matt's question caused another commotion to be heard next to him, and it seemed that everyone agreed with Matt, and the boos went to Palmer.
"You click to see, you click to see!" Palmer said angrily, but Matt was unmoved, and Petty, who was standing next to him, patted Matt's shoulder hard, "Look at it, if you don't look at it, Palmer won't stop." ”
Looking up, Matt saw Palmer's expectant look, "You won't regret it!" Palmer swore by it.
Matt looked helplessly at the computer, clicked on the first skull, and a video popped up.
In the dark background, a point of light blooms from the middle, as if the sun is rising from the horizon, and then you can see that the point of light is a figure, stepping on the bewitching pace of rapid progress, the surrounding darkness becomes distorted by the light, the black and white picture is like a comic refracted the light and shadow of a bar, and the unique picture brings a strong visual impact.
The silhouette of the figure appeared, and it was Jessica. She wore a studded bra/blouse and a pair of tight leather pants that showed off the curves of her figure. Jessica held a leather whip in her left hand and shook it slowly, with a wonderful rhythm that made people can't help but dry their mouths.
Suddenly, the whip jerked strongly, a crisp "pop" broke the silence, lazy and psychedelic jazz music rang out, Jessica danced the whip slowly but explosively, her long supple blonde hair fluttered in the wind, and the haughty and cold queen burst out. The pure and rich hormonal breath makes a corner of the body start to move, and the most primitive call breaks through the earth.
"Tear and pull", the leather whip slashes across the picture, the picture is like a torn canvas, the middle is divided into two halves, the picture curls up and down respectively, and the mustard yellow liquid slowly flows down from the cracks. Then I saw Jessica bend down and slowly move forward, the breast/clothing bondage of the rabbit was almost about to break free, the rich lips opened slightly, and whispered, "I killed a man." Then, an evil and cold smile drew up at the corners of his mouth.
The mustard yellow liquid exploded directly, engulfing Jessica's figure. Then, a line appeared on the screen, "See you on April Fool's Day." ”
Other than that, there is no more information. Matt was dumbfounded...... This, what the hell is this?
Is this a movie trailer? There's no movie information, no starring information, no plot hints, no clues to follow, not even a short film, it looks like a cowboy western promo - the kind of romance action genre that is forbidden to be watched under the age of eighteen.
"Hey, hey, Matt, do you feel it? Do you feel it? Palmer put his smug hand on Matt's shoulder, teasing in a funny way, and then glanced at Matt's lower body, and then Palmer raised his hands in the air, "We have another champion!" Everyone in the pantry collectively raised their hands and coaxed.
Matt reacted and looked at everyone in confusion. I saw that everyone was high-fived and celebrated, as if he was the only one who was kept in the dark - so, all this is just a trick game?
Petty leaned over with a smile, "Palmer made a bet with us on how many people would react. One sentence was enough, it seemed that everyone in the pantry was in a group, and everyone joined forces to play a trick on Matt.
"So, is this video real?" Matt asked curiously.
"Oh, really, 100 percent true. This site is also true. Petty explained, but before he could finish his sentence, Grimaud, who was standing in the doorway, raised his voice and said, "Charlie Baker is here, Charlie Baker is here." Suddenly, everyone withdrew their smiles and resumed their conversation, and Petty said to Matt, "Another sacrificial sheep is coming." ”
Thankfully, Matt wasn't alone.
After everyone's cooperation, sure enough, Charlie still came to watch the video. Matt was standing nearby, and this time he calmed down and watched it carefully. Even for the second time, Matt still had to sigh that Jessica took the definition of sexuality/sensuality to the extreme, and at the same time he also noticed the details that he had just overlooked, the raw hormonal atmosphere was filled with an indescribable restless atmosphere, the unique stylized composition and lens presented a feeling that had never been seen before, and the all-black-and-white picture coupled with the stick figure style of the comic strip actually had a kind of ...... Weirdly cool.
At the end of the video, in addition to the phrase "See you on April Fool's Day", Matt finally notices a detail - a detail is marked in the bottom left corner, "Mayor: Lancelot Strello". What mayor? Mayor of Sin City?
With a flash of inspiration in his mind, Matt's whole body was in shock - so, all this is just a marketing ploy for a movie? All this is just a promotional ploy before the release of a movie? It all means...... Is Lance's brand new movie coming soon?
Not long ago, Matt had just finished watching "Murder with a Knife" -- he went to the cinema three times, the first two with friends and the third time by himself. It's been a long, long time since he's seen such a wonderful work, if the original "day after tomorrow" was just because of the magnificence of the visual effects, out of curiosity, he randomly watched Lance's work, then after "borrowing a knife to kill", he was really interested in the director, and he even found out the "City of God" and really threw himself into Lance.
Now, Lance's latest movie is about to be released?
Matt only felt all the blood boiling all over his body, and he couldn't wait to watch the trailer again, hoping to get more information from it. Palmer, who was standing next to him, immediately grabbed Matt, "Don't worry, don't worry, Little Red Riding Hood, the hunter's trap hasn't been pulled down yet." ”
Matt laughed dumbly, "Palmer, you just said, when will the second version of the trailer be released?" (To be continued.) )
