Chapter 39: Elven Incident

After entering the normal filming, Daniel has maintained a very good state, following the crew to the north and south islands of New Zealand, the snow-capped mountains, the Moria potholes, and the country of Rohan...... The magical world of Middle-earth in the script gradually unfolds, time flies by, Daniel's blonde hair and pointed ears seem to be innate, sometimes he wears makeup for three hours just for one or two scenes, and the rest of the time, he can watch on the set, or he can move freely.

Daniel's favorite way to spend time is to carry his easel on his back, without removing his makeup, and find a beautiful hill to paint all morning.

Majestic glaciers, dark and dangerous volcanoes, quiet farmlands, and vast grasslands and woodlands – Daniel's sketches of Middle-earth are gradually spreading.

This is the last scene of Mount Victoria, and then they have a dense indoor shooting, the gospel of magic movies - green screen.

Daniel's play was finished early, and he found a good place to spread out his easel in the shade.

The clouds in the distance are dreamlike, and the grassland woodland is stunning.

Daniel was so captivated by the beauty in front of him that he was so enchanted by the summer vibrancy that he ignored the pedestrians on the path.

Lena and Josh are a pair of young people who have come for an outing, and they are both reporters for the Wellington Daily News section.

As always, Victoria Hill is a great place to spend time.

Until they saw a gray figure on the hill.

"Josh, what's that?"

Lena's eyes widened, "Oh my God, blond hair, and like pointed ears." ”

As they approached, the man's handsome face shone in the sunlight.

"Elves!"

Josh spoke out Lena's conjecture.

"A real elf? Oh my God. New Zealand actually has a real elf, that can't be. The professional instinct of a journalist allowed Lena and Josh to dismiss this conjecture, and by the time they wanted to get closer, the man had disappeared from the hills.

Every corner of Mount Victoria on weekends can be filled with visitors, especially young people.

Legolas wasn't the only ones who saw Legolas, Lena and Josh.

When they spoke out about today's mysterious news online, several people responded to them.

Blonde, silky, flowing long hair.

Witty, cute, pointy ears.

Unbeatable, dusty handsome beauty.

Everyone seems to have become poets all at once, and in their descriptions, people on the Internet have painted in their hearts an image that is difficult to exist in reality.

That's the elves!

The darlings of the legendary forest, synonymous with beauty, are the elves.

What a shocking thing it was to encounter an elf.

But isn't that really a prank?

There were no photos, no videos, just a few people chanting poetry there.

More people questioned whether there was a zài elf, or if it was just an early April Fool's joke.

But the photos were available very quickly, just not very clearly.

It wasn't Mount Victoria, it was Mount Enslow, and it was in the South Lakes area.

Photographers photographed the elf on the northwest slope of Entslow, and although the elf's appearance was blurry due to focus and distance, it was still possible to see long blond hair and gray cloak, and this time, a longbow - which seemed to be emerald green.

"Josh, look, from Entslow to Victoria, from the South Island to the North Island, from Canterbury to the Mackenzie Hills, is this elf wandering all over New Zealand?" Lena's curiosity about the events of the elves is unparalleled, and she collects all the true and false news, and spreads it to their circle of friends.

In fact, that's what a lot of people are doing.

One can always find the superiority of the prophet in the process of delivering the message.

Especially, an elf? God, this is amazing.

Loch Ness Monster, UFO Legends, Himalayan Yeti ...... Each of these supernatural phenomena is fascinating, and wouldn't it be a rare honor if there were spirits in New Zealand?

The Genie incident quickly spread across the Internet in New Zealand.

It's not that no one thought of the "Lord of the Rings Trilogy", which is being filmed in New Zealand, but "The Lord of the Rings" is not equal to elves, and people who know little about "The Lord of the Rings" can only think of a general magical world, where there may be elves - but are the elves who run out of the crew also called elves?

What people witnessed, what they saw in the camera, was a truly elegant elf.

As the rumours mounted, Lena and Josh's friend, Anne Warren, a reporter for the Wellington Daily Social section, decided to move it to a new issue of the social news.

She got a wealth of material from Lena and started writing news.

"Elves have been popping up all over New Zealand lately, yes, elves, a strange race of legends born in the forest, who are often long, intelligent and beautiful, skilled in poetry and music, and of course, with the iconic bow and arrow. They never die. Their long blond hair, pointed ears, and handsome faces are their hallmarks—exactly what people have seen lately.

Is there really a race like elves in New Zealand? Let's follow in the footsteps of the elf and see where he haunts......"

The social edition of the news set the event on fire.

If before it was just an exchange between enthusiasts, then this moment begins, and other people who have not seen it and know nothing about it are also joined.

The photo is blurry and distant, which becomes the focus of most people's criticism.

"Just like the Loch Ness monster, you can never take a clear picture of the front, only traces, backs, speculations and lies." Vivita, an anchor on TV 2 who likes to speak out on social hot spots, wrote a few hundred words on her personal website about the incident.

Refuters claim that so many people have witnessed it in a short period of time, which is completely different from the Loch Ness Monster, and although there is no clear face on the photo, the details have been completely consistent with the rumors, indicating that everything is well-founded.

It's a hot topic in the small Pacific countries, but it doesn't stop there.

However, when Daniel saw the news in his hotel room, he was still taken aback, all the witnesses were from some of their locations, and the photo of the Enslow elf was undoubtedly him.

"God."

Daniel said this during a routine conversation with Cusa.

"Kusa, you can't believe it, the people here are debating whether they saw the real elf - of course, that's me." Daniel couldn't help but feel a little proud when he said this.

Kusa was much sharper than he was, and after hanging up the phone, he made a special visit to the New Zealand network.

The development of the elven event was sorted out by him one by one, the event itself is communicative, no one manipulates it, it still becomes a popular event, and once it is consciously promoted, the effect may be a little more obvious.

Recently, Kusa has been using a variety of methods and avenues to reach out to Spy's stakeholders, including Universal Pictures, which leans toward Matt Damon.

The Elf event may be a useful bargaining chip.
