After the incident, the police near the cinema intervened in the investigation.

John Sr. died of fright, and he himself suffered from a serious heart condition, which was the main reason for his sudden death after being frightened.

Although John Sr. is a lonely old man and has no direct relatives to file lawsuits and claims, the movie theater where the incident occurred was still sued by a local idle "elderly aid organization" for "playing a movie with an unclear rating, resulting in the death of the audience." ”

According to the release label, "Ghost Record" belongs to the R level, restricted level, and it is recommended to watch it for people over 17 years old.

However, according to the horror level of the content, it should be classified as NC-17, and those under the age of 17 (including 17 years old) are prohibited from watching.

The film does not perform the latter level, so the responsibility must be taken on for the audience being scared to death!

Immediately, the "Save the Elderly Fund Charity", the "American Film Classification Advocacy Organization", and the "American Community Union" respectively gave solidarity and response to this emergency.

As a result, the entire United States was boiling over this matter.

All sorts of "charities", "civil society" that flaunt "justice" and "truth", and some editors and reporters who are concerned about your affairs but insist on coming forward, have published opinion pieces, pointing the finger at the hapless movie theater and the drama "Ghost Record".

"We don't know how the American Film Association classifies films, but today we see a cruel reality: Mr. John Sr., because of this play, he was scared to death in the movie theater! Such a tragic situation can't help but make us reflect. Whose fault is it?! ”

"Movies are supposed to entertain the masses. But today he has become the executioner of the murder of the old man! Unclear film ratings. The vague concept of classification, as well as the flashes of warnings and reminders when the movie is screened, make us very angry, why can a horror film like "Ghost Record" be released in a big way? ”

"There is no doubt that 'Ghost Record' and the cinema that screened the play must bear the main criminal responsibility. A lonely old man in the United States died quietly in a movie theater. This can't be a joke, it should be a wake-up call for us to increase our efforts to classify horror films! ”

……

All kinds of talk came along.

The old man Johnson, who was originally unknown and uncared for during his lifetime, instantly became the front page headlines of newspapers and magazines, and even the news of his violent death in the movie theater was reported on the prime time news of CBS TV in the United States, and its rolling broadcast volume even exceeded the sex scandal of US President Clinton.

Old John Quanxia knew that he was so famous after his death, and it was estimated that he should laugh at Jiuquan.

Except for Old John. The biggest impact of this incident is undoubtedly Yi Feiyang, the director of "Ghost Shadow".

Originally, this "Chinese magician", who was regarded by the North American film industry as a frequent miracle, was instantaneous. became a "movie murderer", and was called ...... "death director" by many people with a heart!

"Director of Death", this title is very unlucky and unlucky, at least in Yi Feiyang's opinion, he will be unlucky for three years to wear this hat.

But that's not all, there are a few social institutions that seem to be hurting...... The main thing is to rescue the lonely and widowed elderly, as well as the institutions that rescue stray cats and dogs, and directly sued Yi Feiyang's new play in court, on the charge that the movie filmed was too terrifying, and asked the US authorities to ban the continued release of "Ghost Shadow".

Not to mention, the U.S. legal institutions are really democratic and free, and they can accept any kind of case.

After a group of well-fed legal professionals researched, and no matter how Yi's personal lawyer Louis Carr protested, the Los Angeles Film Authority finally issued a document: prohibiting the full release of "Ghost Record" in North America, and strictly prohibiting the film's movie posters, advertisements and items from being published in various media.

In a word, the drama "Ghost Shadow" is completely banned!

As a result, on the streets, in the subway, the posters of "Ghost Record" that could be seen everywhere and were built by Paramount with a lot of money were banned, and the TV station that signed a promotional contract began to ban the tidbits of the play "Ghost Record".

Throughout North America, including Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, and several major cities such as Detroit, the full trailer of "Ghost Record" has also been banned from theater lobbies. The bus advertisements and minibus advertisements of "Ghost Shadows" have also been withdrawn......

In the face of this "ban", the most bitter is Paramount Pictures, which originally thought that with the help of Yi Feiyang's play, it would create a box office miracle like "Blair the Witch", but who would have thought that he died halfway and died directly in the hands of "public opinion".

"Ghost Shadow" could not be released normally, and Paramount lost not only advertising money and publicity money, but the endless box office in that later period! and the shocking number one at the box office!!

In contrast, Yi Feiyang is also extremely depressed.

I originally thought that creating a composite version of "Curse" and "Ghost" would bring unexpected benefits to myself, but I didn't expect the result to directly scare people to death.

And according to those media, he became the first horror film director in the United States to have a banned film in 20 years!

Who was the last banned senpai? Yi Feiyang didn't know, but he only knew that he had washed a new historical record, and he was banned before he officially filmed a play!

Yi Feiyang really didn't know whether to congratulate himself and become famous overnight; It's still time to curse yourself and step on shit.

In short, in the past few days, the phone call of Dream Pictures has been bursting, countless people have asked for their information, and countless people are waiting outside the company, hoping to shoot the true face of this Chinese "death director"!

Yi Feiyang is not afraid of these American paparazzi reporters, nor is he afraid of the so-called "righteous media organizations" that accuse him, he just has some regrets in his heart.

Old John's death still made Yi Feiyang's heart feel ashamed and guilty.

Therefore, when he heard that today was the day of Old John's funeral, Yi Feiyang tried his best to find a way. Avoid the fly-like buzzing reporters outside the company. I drove to a public cemetery in the western suburbs of Los Angeles.

"Rose Cemetery" is the name of this public cemetery.

This cemetery is home to the Los Angeles government. The public cemetery that was funded and prepared, those who have no money, no children, no relatives and friends, the last resting place is here.

The cemetery is tended by a black pastor at a nearby church, whose name is unknown, but who is simply called "Pastor of the Rose" because of the burial of the deceased. He would take the place of his family and friends with great mercy and place a bright red rose on the coffin.

This time, though, "Lawyer Rose" stopped putting roses because someone had done such a thing instead of him.

In the lonely cemetery, the cold wind blew the bleak tombstone, and Yi Feiyang and Hathaway stood side by side in front of the grave of Old John.

When Yi Feiyang and Hathaway jointly placed a beautiful rose on top of the coffin, the priest began to read the scriptures skillfully.

"Whatever comes from dust shall be dust, so let the Lord have mercy on you. From now on, may the Lord take you to the kingdom of eternal bliss. Hear our prayers, Lord, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen. ”

A shovel of dust covered the coffin.

Yi Feiyang and Hathaway, quietly looking at the coffin, gradually covered with dust.

Life and body, thus ended, buried in the dust.

Yi Feiyang's mood was very bad, especially when he saw the puppy named Bobo, barking at the dust-covered coffin, Yi Feiyang had a feeling of "guilt".

Yes, although he didn't mean to hurt others, he filmed this drama after all, and when he was filming, he already knew that this horror film was a fusion of "Curse" and "Ghost", and the effect was too perverted. However, driven by the heart of fame and fortune, and swayed by the heart of competitiveness, he did not make any concessions, let the major movie theaters release in a grand manner, and greedily competed for more theaters......

Now that the tragedy has happened, what is the use of regretting it? Could it be that regretting it can save the old man lying in the coffin? You can help this poor puppy who has lost its owner by being upset?!

No, no matter what you do now, it doesn't help.

He has become what people call a death director, a murderer......

No one will forgive themselves, and no one will pity themselves......

Although, for all this, I have never been unintentionally at fault......

The cold wind blew Yi Feiyang's cheeks, and Hathaway next to him could see clearly that there seemed to be an indescribable sadness on Yi Feiyang's cheeks, which were originally full of perseverance and courage.

Hathaway wanted to comfort Yi Feiyang, but she didn't know what to say.

After the black pastor finished the burial ceremony, he suddenly said to Yi Feiyang: "Dear friend, you are the only one who has come to see off Old John, and I thank you for him." ”

"Mr. Pastor, do you know...... Old John? Hathaway couldn't help but ask.

The black priest nodded, "yes, this poor lonely old man, maybe one of my few friends, well, yes, I'm probably the one I know best, except for Bobo the dog." ”

"Loneliness and loneliness make him his favorite place to go to two places, one is the church and the other is the cinema. The church gave him spiritual faith and allowed him to sing with the faithful; The cinema gave him joie de vivre, let him shout and scream with the people......"

"He was lonely, he was happy, he once told me that his greatest wish in life was to be able to sit in the cinema, eat popcorn and die, and now, his wish has come true. So I think he's happy, you don't have to blame yourself, and you don't have to feel any pain or guilt for this incident......"

"See, this cemetery was once chosen by Old John himself, and I was drinking with him at that time...... May God forgive me, I seldom drink and rarely get drunk...... But that time I was really drunk, and I accompanied him and got drunk in this cemetery. We talk about life, we talk about God, we talk about what it means to live......" the black pastor sighed, immersed in the memories.

Yi Feiyang came back to his senses from his reverie, and the puppy Bobo was barking softly at the gradually filling grave, no longer having the confidence he had at the beginning.

Yi Feiyang bent down, picked it up, and then pressed his face against its cute little head, saying, "Will you be with me in the future?" ”

The puppy Bobo seemed to understand his words, and with a snort, he stretched out his little tongue and licked Yi Feiyang's face.

In the cold wind, a man and a dog snuggled tightly.

Tomorrow, he has to face a new situation! (To be continued......)
