"Please enter the audience watching Cursed 2 in an orderly manner."

"The exhibition halls where Curse 2 is played are Hall 3, Hall 6 and Hall 9, please pay attention to the number of performances on the movie ticket and the number of seats."

"After the film is over, friends in need can go to the booth in the main hall of the theater, and as long as they participate in related activities, they will have the opportunity to get exquisite gifts from the Curse 2 crew."

"If you wish, you can also get a post-it sticker in the hands of the staff at the booth, write your evaluation of the film, whether it is good or bad, we are willing to accept it, and paste them in front of the poster panel of the booth......"

……

and country,

Inside the Ikebukuro Cinema,

As one of the few large theaters, this time it is still the main venue for the offline event of Curse 2.

As soon as Lu Zhengyi arrived at the scene, he heard several voices shouting in harmony, all of them were employees sent by Guangying on a business trip.

And there are a few familiar faces among them, a few people from their plum civet crew.

There are not many people in the crew, this time there are only about a dozen people who came to Heguo, scattered in various theaters, and now he is in the big theater here in Ikebukuro, and he can only see Bai Wei, Assistant Wang and Kim Sun-mei.

"Looks like it's quite lively."

Lu Zhengyi held up his mobile phone and took pictures of the scene to his wife who was far away in China.

Zhang Xueming hasn't been to the company recently, and she is idle at home, so it should be boring.

But there's more than one person on her side.

"Dad, Mom, you all come and see, now Ayi's movies are on the Heguo side, and they are very popular."

She held up her phone and turned the screen to the person next to her.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Zhengyi saw his father's stinky face that looked very serious and stereotypical every day, as well as his mother's bewildered face, and of course, his mother-in-law with a curious face.

The old man is not here, probably going to work in light and shadow.

However, after seeing them, Lu Zhengyi's gaze did not stop moving, but continued to look for them in the picture.

Finally, when he saw Ah Yong curled up in the corner of the sofa and seemed to be sleeping, he relaxed.

This kid lived up to his entrustment, and followed Xue Ming well to ensure her safety.

In the past, as long as Lu Zhengyi went out for a long time, he would basically not be left behind.

But this time, he didn't follow.

Anyway, there has to be someone in the family, whether it's a cat, there must always be someone to take care of, lest like Zhang Yuming, suddenly have an accident in China, and he can't rush back as soon as possible.

"It's still a finished product, and it lives up to the seed of our old Lu family."

Lu Yiyong said coldly, "It's like before, I know ...... all day long."

But before he finished speaking, Liu Huiyun, Lu Zhengyi's mother next to him, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, her face was full of blame, but she didn't speak.

And Lu Yiyong frowned, and wanted to say something.

"Come on, come on, in-laws, mother-in-law, drink tea and drink tea."

Fortunately, their demeanor didn't last long, and the voice of the mother-in-law next to them sounded.

The stalemate on the faces of the two faded away.

They are now in the living room, and all three of them are of the same generation, and they all care about face.

"Xue Ming, we're watching TV here, it's going to be a little noisy."

The mother-in-law's voice then sounded, "You go upstairs and make a call." ”

Zhang Xueming hurriedly nodded, "Okay, okay." ”

Through the mobile phone, Lu Zhengyi could feel her emotions relaxed all of a sudden.

"It seems that the two of us are not emotionally stable and don't get along very well."

Seeing her go upstairs, Lu Zhengyi spoke helplessly, but he could understand it.

In the past, the relationship between the two was not bad, entirely because they were busy with each other's careers, and they put their careers first, and there were very few opportunities to sit down and get along.

It may be the New Year's holiday, holiday vacation, and the two can stay together for a few days.

But now the two have retired and come home, and they are together all day, looking at each other.

Those problems that were originally avoided slowly manifested themselves.

"Yes, mother-in-law...... I don't know how to handle it in life, and my father-in-law is very disgusted, always saying that it is not good to do here, and it is not good to do it there. Zhang Xueming came to the upstairs master bedroom, sat on the recliner by the window, and did not evade, "But in my opinion, the two of them are only half a pound or two in those life skills." ”

One used to be in the crew, and he was all directing others to work,

One used to be a role in the repertory troupe, and he was served.

It can't be said that they don't care about this from a young age.

It's probably because I've been in a high position for so many years, and I'm used to being idle, and I'm slowly starting to be unable to do these rough jobs.

"If you find it troublesome, I'll talk to them about it sometimes." Lu Zhengyi listened to her words, "You can't let them talk about taking care of you, and you have to take care of them in the end." ”

When these two elders were born, I took care of the left sentence when they were born, and the right sentence was don't worry, he didn't take it seriously at all.

I knew that there would be such a situation.

However, he is not the kind of person who will have a lot of scruples and dare not make some demands because of his parents' status.

As far as the matter is concerned, even if it is a parent, you can't blindly cause trouble to your wife at this time.

"It's okay, that's fine."

Zhang Xueming shook her head, "At home, it should be more lively." ”

Saying that, she didn't want to talk more on this topic, "Your movie is about to start, right?" ”

"If you arrive early, there will be ten minutes or so." Lu Zhengyi sat in the waiting area and glanced at the time, "But when you get inside, our video will have to be cut off, and I don't dare to show you a horror movie at this time." ”

"What are you afraid of, I'm very bold now." Zhang Xueming said, reaching out and turning her phone to the side, "Our Ah Yong has always been a bodyguard with all his heart." ”

"I'm not the same as I was at the beginning, this is a black cat."

"And Ah Yong is so spiritual, in the Xuan Cat, he must also belong to that kind of special power, with him protecting me, what am I afraid of."

Her front-facing camera was aimed at Yong, who was lazily lying on the small round table next to her.

He also opened his mouth to the camera and yawned as the camera passed.

This leisurely look seems to say, 'Everything has me.' ’

"By the way, if you need to move some heavy items at home, you can ask Ah Yong to help." Lu Zhengyi looked at his leisurely appearance and couldn't help but speak, "He has a lot of strength, but he can also do fine work, like the bowl washed before, it is still quite clean." ”

Ah Yong, who originally had a look of 'everything has me', slammed it, and the cat's face was pointed at the camera, full of incredulity.

Zhang Xueming squinted her eyes and smiled, "Okay, listen to you." ”

"Meow?"

Yong turned the cat's head again and aimed at the side.

But all he got was a tiny palm.

"Okay, okay, I'm kidding." Zhang Xueming rubbed his fluffy hair with the palm of her hand, "If there is anything that needs to be moved at home, you just need to be responsible for accompanying me to eat and drink, and watch TV series." ”

As she said this, Ah Yong was rubbed, and the dissatisfaction on that face faded.

"Meow."

He shouted again.

He said that if he really needed help, he could just say it. Lu Zhengyi acted as a translator through his mobile phone, "He also said that in special times, special treatment, you can't call me blindly, I'm very busy." ”

"Eh, what are you busy with?"

"Watching a TV series? Or is it ...... Sleep in? ”

The last two sentences are Lu Zhengyi's own words.

"Meow!"

Ah Yong shouted dissatisfied.

"Alright, show me the booth." Zhang Xueming smiled and turned the camera back and straightened it, "I'll see how their booth is arranged and whether it is implemented according to the original plan." ”

"Okay, accompany the leader to inspect the work."

Lu Zhengyi stood up, replaced his phone with a rear camera, and walked towards the booth.

"Yes, the booth is fine."

"However, in terms of personnel allocation, there is a bit of a problem, especially next to the booth, the person in charge of the 'comment area'."

"When the movie is watched, if it is scary and terrifying enough, they will definitely have a lot of complaints, if the effect is not enough, they will also have a lot of complaints that they want to complain, and when the time comes, a bunch of people will crowd over, and just two people will be there to post it and maintain order, it will definitely not be enough......"

There was a real problem with this inspection, but they had already thought about it.

"In terms of personnel allocation, Assistant Wang has explained it, and now it is ready to open, and the people are more in the theater and nearby shopping malls to promote the activities after the end."

"When the theater is over later, those people will go to other places one after another, such as the 'lottery area' and 'comment area' to gather people."

"And in terms of order, he also explained to the people who guarded the theater......"

Lu Zhengyi explained the arrangements for the temporary modification of the activities here.

After Wang Yao left Light and Shadow and became the head of Meicion Studio from an office supervisor, he was indeed much calmer in all aspects.

After all, the external pressure of the entire crew is almost on him.

If there is a lack of venue negotiation, a loophole in the actor's contract, or a leak in the filming schedule...... and other problems, delaying the shooting, and the entire crew had to wait for him.

Before, in the light and shadow, the sky fell, and the tall man was on top.

But now in the civet cat, he is one of the people in charge of the sky, and he is forced to grow up.

The process of accompanying the leader to inspect the work did not last too long, after all, it was about ten minutes before the opening of the movie.

Soon, Lu Zhengyi turned off the video call before entering the venue.

"Is this movie scary? I haven't seen the first one. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I think the second part should be the same as the first part, it is composed of small stories of victims, and it should be no problem to watch the second part directly."

"Brother Junhyuk, I was looking at the poster outside just now, this movie seems to have An Xiaozhou participating, Dafa, has she already become popular with Heguo?"

"Of course, that's the actress of our Southern Dynasty, who is very famous in the world, you see so many audiences."

"Indeed, I glanced at the poster just now, except for An Xiaozhou, I don't know any other actors, and the audience must be coming for her."

"Hey, there's a stick over there that says that so many viewers are here to see An Xiaozhou, I'm laughing to death, how can I be so confident."

……

The audience when entering the venue is, of course, mostly local and Chinese.

In addition, there are also some Southern Dynasty dialects, Star Stripes and the like, and Lu Zhengyi can even hear Tang dialect with a Sichuan accent.

I remember the last time I went here with Zhang Xueming to watch Curse 1, there were Tang people in almost every scene, and there was a movie in which the number of Tang audiences exceeded the local and Chinese people.

This is probably the advantage of a country with a large population, and you can see your fellow villagers everywhere.

However, after entering the venue, the voices of the discussion slowly began to decrease.

Later, the staff of the theater also came to the left and right of some people from time to time, reminding them of civilized movie watching and the like.

Lu Zhengyi sat in the last row as always, so as not to block others.

With his stature, to that one, it was a wall.

Soon, as the lights went out, the theater fell completely silent.

"'Curse' refers to the curse left by the person who died unjustly, and in the dwelling place of the deceased before his death, he accumulates a heavenly resentment, and whoever touches it will die, thus giving rise to a new 'curse'." ”

A simple background introduction directly appears in the form of a Japanese text.

And after the text, the film officially begins.

It's still the calm hut, and a panoramic special effect opens.

But this time, no longer like the first part, there is a car driving into the picture, but in a short pause, making the audience feel that the picture is not stuck, a woman is supported by a man, hurriedly stumbling out of the house, looking frightened, using both hands and feet.

There are no superfluous sound effects to support the horror atmosphere, as if it were a mime, and they came out of the house and ran straight out of the picture.

But it is this completely dead picture, combined with the dark environment and quiet atmosphere of the theater, that people can't help but reverie.

As soon as the picture turned, the background came to the door of the police department of Heguo.

"There are ghosts, there are ghosts in that house!"

"I'm a psychic, this is my business card, I was commissioned by an acquaintance of the Land Bureau to investigate the anomaly in the house, but inside, it's terrifying!"

"I request that all buildings in and around that room be sealed off to prevent the resentment there from getting heavier and heavier with the number of killings!"

The woman in the cloak was like a madman, and kept shouting in the hall under the obstruction of one police officer after another next to her, "I'm not sick, what I said is true!" ”

"If you don't listen to me, things will get very troublesome!"

"Mr. Sato, Mr. Sato from the Bureau of Land Management can help me testify, he entrusted me to investigate, Mr. Sato, you can help me testify, this matter is ......"

She kept giving the evidence and witnesses she could.

But as she spoke, the whole person paused.

Sato, who was still next to her just now, helped her into the police station together, but disappeared in the blink of an eye.

What about people? What about people!

The woman's eyes widened, and she scanned her surroundings with even more frightened gaze, but she didn't see the figure who helped her out of the house!

"There's a problem!"

"There's a problem!"

"She did it on purpose! She did it on purpose, why, why! ”

She shouted frantically, struggling with her hands and feet.

The police officer who stopped her next to her looked at each other and had to press her to the chair next to her.

"Why, why!"

The woman was still shouting.

At this point, the picture darkens.

"Hibiki."

A name appeared on the screen.
