CHAPTER 143: THE HOST (2)
January 25th.
The largest cinema in Seoul, Seoul Cinema, the former Seoul Cinema The word Seoul has been demolished and changed to Seoul.
At this moment, there is a sea of people.
Here, it is the home of the monster's premiere, and now, the important people of the entire crew of the monster are already seated in the theater.
The premiere, unlike the premiere, does not allow important people from the film to be present, but also other artists and departments, and screen some wonderful films, interact with the audience, and be interviewed by reporters. But the premiere is about the release of the movie.
Big-budget movies usually choose one of the two, and the film club was originally preparing for a premiere, but now it has been replaced by a premiere.
The pressure on Wang's men is too great, they are afraid, afraid that they will be defeated by medium-sized investment if they make it so grand, they can't afford to lose this person.
"There really aren't many people!" Jae Jung and the other five people came to the theater and shouted happily, no matter if the movie is good or not, but they like the trailer very much.
However, the most hateful thing is that there is no figure of the monster in the trailer, only the tail and toes, and they are itching to watch.
"Five monster movie tickets, we have reservations." Walking to the front of the cinema, they redeemed their tickets and entered the theater.
"There are so few people." Bae Jae-jung walked into the movie theater, saw that half of it was not full, and smiled, "I don't like too many people, such people are just right, don't crowd, sit casually, how can it be like a man watching the king, I heard that the venue is almost full, so don't you squeeze to death?" ”
"Brother Zai Zheng, we are all from the film department, everyone knows that horror films, alien films, are not easy to shine at the box office, and the most famous alien in history was also the second month box office piled up by word of mouth, which was originally a niche...... Love is the public, and the man you are waiting for the king at noon is sure to be full again. Who wants to spend money to see a monster? ”
"That's too."
At the same time, in another small theater, important members of the monster crew are already waiting.
Lin Xiao, Zheng Dabin, Byun Hee-bong, Park Hae-il, Gao Ya-sung, Choi Young-bae, Kim Min-seok, Bong Joon-ho, vividly, this time, even Choi Young-bae's face is not very good-looking.
No one could have imagined that at the end of the year, I thought it was a duel between them "Typhoon," and it turned out to be a man who fought against the king of monsters.
Win or lose, the king's men have won, and they have made a lot of noise.
Entertainment notes, movie reviews, laptops, and notebooks did not speak, and some even cast pity on the front row.
"It's pathetic...... Encounter this kind of dark horse that has not been encountered in a thousand years......" A film critic sighed and opened his hand, shook his head and said, "It's okay if they win, but if they lose, I'm afraid they ......"
"Who would have thought...... The movie is like this, the typhoon investment is so big, SHOWBOX has lost a lot this time......"
At this moment, suddenly, the door to the back of the movie opened.
No one came in first, but about thirty or forty bodyguards in black and sunglasses poured into the theater like a tide.
"What's going on?" "Underworld?"
Everyone was taken aback and looked at the door behind them in horror.
After about four or five minutes, those bodyguards said something to the contact tool, only to see a man slowly walk into the theater surrounded by seven or eight bodyguards.
"Boom!" The door is closed, and I have never had the habit of closing the door when watching movies, but this time, the door was closed.
Dozens of well-trained bodyguards filled the entire set, especially at the gate, which was tightly blocked. The others, some of them began to take out some strange instruments and walk around the room.
There was silence in the theater.
"Who!" Bong Joon-ho frowned, his heart was already on fire, and he had to explode now.
As soon as he stood up, he felt like he was being pulled by.
"Do you want to die?" Cui Rongpei looked at him coldly, "You scream and try, you see if there is still a person like you in South Korea!" ”
"Mr. Cui, are you threatening me?" Bong Joon-ho sneered.
Cui Rongpei looked at him steadily, and suddenly let go of his hand, "Very good, please." ”
Bong Jun-ho snorted coldly, and was about to speak, but there was a cold sweat on his head.
The moment he stood up, he didn't know when there were seven or eight more bodyguards around him, and the muzzles of seven or eight black holes were facing his body!
The cold sweat on his forehead flowed down unwantedly, his mouth opened a few times, but he couldn't pronounce a syllable, and his legs were a little weak.
He didn't know how he sat down, he just felt that he was going to move again, and now he was definitely a dead man.
After "Hu ......" sat down, after a few minutes, his pale face suddenly turned a little bloody under the light, coughed, and said "this...... Here's what ...... do"
Choi Young-pei sneered, "Mr. Roh Moo-hyun's treasure, you dare to be alarmed, and if you don't listen to the persuasion, you are lucky not to be killed on the spot." ”
As soon as he said this, everyone around him stopped talking.
After a while, Kim Min-seok said in a trembling voice, "Total ...... Mr. President?! Mr. President of the Blue House?! ”
Cui Rongpei nodded.
"You know him?" Lin Xiao asked tentatively.
"I've seen it a few times, but I haven't touched it." Cui Rongpei replied vaguely, and then smiled and said, "In this kind of battle, who else can there be besides the presence of the president in person?" I really can't think of it...... It seems that this time, Mr. President is also a little unable to sit still. ”
"The king's man is in front, but it was not filmed by the Shadow Club. What does it mean that he watched the movie himself after confirming that the other party had more than three million people, and now he appeared at the monster premiere? ”
"If the Han River monster is not satisfactory, it will be greeted by the attack of the entire Korean media. The quota cut signed by Mr. President himself is an invisible warning to the Movie Club...... "He smiled and looked at the pale Bong Joon-ho, "Director Bong, be careful...... If Mr. President doesn't look good, I'm afraid your dream of being a great director will disappear forever......"
"And ......," he said with a smile as he looked around the audience, "as far as I know, the attendance rate of the Han River Monster this time is very unoptimistic. ”
At this moment, the "brush" light dimmed, interrupting Cui Rongpei's words.
The overhead lights go out, but the lights on the silver screen come on.
"Mr. Kim." A brightly lit laboratory appeared on the screen, and a pleasant-looking old man wiped a handful of "dust" on the sink with his hand. ”
On the other side, the Korean man, who was also wearing a blue coat, turned his head with a respectful face.
"I hate dust the most." A sigh came from the sound system, and the old man waved his hand, "Oh, don't do it now." ”
"Now, pour these things into the sink." The old man pointed to a pile of glass bottles next to him.
"That's formalin?" The man asked.
"NO, it's formaldehyde." The old man smiled and said, turning the bottle in his hand around, "Filthy formaldehyde, to be exact." ”
"Now, pour them all into the sink, every drop of every bottle." The old man spoke very naturally, and had already begun to clean his hands.
"You...... What do you say? The man's expression was a little stunned, and at the same time felt incredible.
"Now, NOW."
"But...... It's a toxic substance...... "The man speaks with some knots" if he does...... They flow into the ...... of the Han River The rules are ......"
"Mr. Kim." The old man smiled very kindly, but at this moment, the audience in front of the screen felt a little chilled, "The Han River is so big, should our hearts be as wide as the Han River?" ”
"Anyway, it's an order."
Smoke, rising in front of the man in the gas mask.
He did, he obeyed the order and poured the things into the sink.
"How could he do that?" A young man whispered discontentedly, "This is our mother river!" ”
Some people at the scene began to feel dissatisfied, but more reporters, entertainment reporters, and film critics first looked at the center of the theater.
The old man in the center with a kind face by more than a dozen bodyguards.
Under the light of the screen, there was no sadness or joy on the other party's face, as often seen on TV, indifferent, as if nothing could make him angry.
Despite a peek out of the corner of his eye, one of the bodyguards let out a slight cough.
The audience was silent, and everyone looked away.
"Is he angry?" A reporter asked the film critic next to him, and the word "CINE21" was hung on the other party's badge, which is a very famous film and television criticism forum in South Korea.
"I can't see clearly, it's too dark, but ...... It doesn't seem to be angry. ”
"It's really good enough to be cultivated." The reporter sneered: "We can all see such an obvious satire on US-South Korean relations, but I don't believe that a president can't see it." This is a clear satire of US-South Korea relations! The United States, South Korea, the United States, the United States, the United States, the United States, the United States, the United States, And the one who enforces these decrees is the president! ”
"Hehe, President Roh Moo-hyun probably never expected that he would come to watch the movie by himself, ready to put pressure on the film club under the banner of Wang's man, but he actually saw a satirical film."
"Not necessarily, maybe just by chance. After all, looking at the title, this is a disaster movie, to be exact, a alien film. ”
"Let's take a look."
The people around him have discussed it softly, after all, the president watches the movie, this situation is not the first time to encounter, and in the history of South Korea, only the man of the fish and the king has this honor.
The scene shifts to the Han River, where two idle middle-aged men are fishing, and one of them, suddenly discovering something, scoops up a glass of water with a cup.
"Look, what is this?"
"That's a lot of feet...... Dead, right? Is it a variant? ”
"No, it was still moving."
A man reached out with interest and touched it, but accidentally knocked over the cup.
"Be careful! This is what my daughter gave me. ”
"Hey...... Swim away, swim away! ”
The picture turns again, and the rain is pouring down.
A man stood on the Yuanxiao Bridge, the people around him shouted desperately, and a pair of leather shoes that were taken off, everyone knew what the man was going to do.
