"Yeah, it's the Frost Film Festival!"
"Wuhu, we finally don't have to stay at home bored during the Frost Festival!"
"Noslic Cinema! The eternal God! Director Du Lin! The eternal God!"
"I'm on fire!"
"… "
Many people cheered excitedly and gathered in front of the cinema, eagerly waiting. Some even prepared blankets to use when buying tickets.
Faced with such an astonishing spectacle, Viscount Banil could only quickly call on the soldiers in the town to maintain order, and officially posted the start time of the Frost Film Festival and the regulations for the sale of movie tickets.
Even so, the enthusiasm of the people could not be stopped, and Barnier finally had to give up controlling the crowd and let them gather in front of the cinema to exchange and brag, leaving only a team of soldiers to maintain the most basic order.
After the initial enthusiasm, people soon noticed the abnormality in the cinema's screening schedule.
"Why are there only "Fate Zero" and the new "Steins;Gate" scheduled in the cinema? Aren't there four movies?"
"Ah, didn't you see? Of these four films, two are being shown in cinemas and two are being shown on TV. Aren't the show times already posted?"
"What? Let me see!"
"Oh my god, what's going on? On the day of Frost Festival, all major movie theaters will play the second chapter of Fate Zero in the morning and Steins;Gate in the afternoon. At the same time, the TV will broadcast the TV version of Kon! on This Wonderful World and the fourth episode of Kara no Kyoukai on loop?"
"What? Both at the same time? Are you asking us to choose one or the other?"
"Devil, it's just a devil!"
"God, why do you make me make such a difficult decision?!"
"You want me to choose between these? Kill me!"
All of a sudden, all kinds of wails were heard. People generally could not accept this kind of overly happy trouble and fell into painful struggles.
Of course, not everyone is so miserable. Some people think that such selective activities have a more festive atmosphere, and the dispersed flow of people can also ensure that cinemas and TV bars will not be out of stock and overcrowded like last time.
In fact, this is exactly why Du Lin designed the movie and TV to be broadcast simultaneously in the first place.
The Frost Film Festival is the first event in which movies and television are promoted on such a large scale. Du Lin started planning it a long time ago.
In order to change this world where the entertainment industry is scarce and the spiritual world of the people is generally empty, and to create such a world into what he expects, Du Lin has been preparing for a very long time.
After all, the cultural revolution he wanted to start could not be achieved with just one or two movies!
What he wants to change is people's overall perception of the world and challenge the seemingly unshakable rules of this world.
To this end, he wants to create a complete industry to update people's understanding of the cultural field and reshape people's entertainment methods.
It not only includes one or two cinemas, but also injects new content from culture itself.
The Frost Film Festival is just the starting point of this huge plan.
Perhaps, there may be too many obstacles on this road. If you continue to move forward, even the South Territory, which has achieved great success today, may betray you, making all your investments go to waste.
But since he has made up his mind to change this boring world, Du Lin will naturally never stop.
He always believed that no matter whether he succeeded or not, the world would eventually change!
…
The day before the Frost Festival.
Du Lin returned to Northrick's base camp, Edward Studios.
Facing a bunch of people in the pub who were so excited that they even forgot to work, he just smiled and said:
"The filming of all films has been completed successfully! Tomorrow's Frost Film Festival will officially begin without any impact!"
“Ohhhhhhhhhh!”
In an instant, everyone in the tavern cheered from the bottom of their hearts!
At the same time, all the people in the southern border are looking forward to the arrival of the Frost Film Festival!
Chapter 158 The Arrival of the Orc Prophet!
Chapter 158
The Frost Film Festival finally arrived under everyone's attention.
On this day, the entire southern border of the empire, the Imperial Academy of Magic, and a few areas in the north were completely bustling. Countless people rushed out of their homes on this cold winter day and headed to the movie theaters in the towns, or to the TV bars in some corners.
“Sorry, although “Fate Zero” is indeed very exciting, I still choose to watch “KonoSuba: God’s Blessing on This Wonderful World”!”
"Humph, you really have no taste. How can "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World" be as exciting as a special effects blockbuster like "Fate Zero"?"
"You have to pay to watch a movie in a cinema, but you don't have to pay to watch a movie in a TV bar. You can watch it as long as you grab a seat!"
"Heh, don't you drink in the pub? Last time I remember you drank all day in one gulp! Anyone can see this kind of bundled marketing!"
"Even so, I still want to watch TV! The atmosphere in the TV bar is so good. No matter how noisy you are, you don't have to worry about disturbing others!"
"You are heretic. Such a wonderful movie should be watched in a quiet environment, on a huge projection!"
"No matter what you say, TV is the best way to watch it!"
"No, the movie is!"
"watch TV!"
"See a movie!"
"… "
For a while, such discussions were everywhere.
Although the war between the TV and film factions had already appeared after the release of "Kara no Kyoukai", this Frost Film Festival completely ignited this discussion.
This shows how boring people in this world are.
…
At the same time, in Edward's Tavern.
Almost all the members of the studio, including Du Lin, appeared here.
With Durin's permission, Winry came all the way from Edward Castle. She looked a lot thinner during this period.
There is no doubt that this is naturally because other nobles in the southern territory are increasingly targeting Edward's family.
In this regard, Du Lin could only comfort them slightly, and made up his mind to confront the southern nobles head-on after the film festival.
As the leading actors of "KonoSuba: God's Blessing for a Better World", Zat, Aya and Helena had naturally been in the tavern for a long time.
The female adventurer who played Darkness mysteriously disappeared after filming the movie, making it hard to figure out where she was adventuring.
In addition, the undead in the tavern, Beldia, Wiz, Saeki, and Leticia have naturally arrived.
These people often get together to study the knowledge and mysteries of the undead, and their relationship has unknowingly changed from strangers in the beginning to the point where they can get together to chat and brag.
The relationship between Beldia and Leticia gradually eased under Durin's influence.
At least Beldia himself has let go of many things and no longer feels too much hatred towards the lich who distorted his life.
After all, he could feel that although Leticia herself seemed to be an extremely powerful lich, she was actually just a pitiful person who had no choice but to sleep forever in the Frost Palace.
In this world, there is no tolerance at all for the undead.
The Dullahan, who has survived alone for hundreds of years after becoming undead, understands this especially well.
In addition, Chase, as the director of the Snow Flower Theater, was also present as a representative.
He has been working so hard on filming "KonoSuba: God's Blessing" and "Fate Zero" these days that he is almost dying of sudden death. As an ordinary person, his physical condition is not as good as Du Lin's, so it can be said that he is working quite hard.
It is worth mentioning that Daphne did not sneak out of the Duke's Mansion this time, and no one knows what happened.
But as for the Duke of the Southern Territory, Du Lin had already planned to meet him.
After this Frost Film Festival, he will officially deal with the many problems that have accumulated in the South Territory over the past.
The huge bomb of the movie was thrown into the pond of the Southern Territory, and the waves it caused were enormous. Many things seemed not to have happened, but they were just temporarily brewing.
When the time comes, what is supposed to happen will eventually happen.
After all, with such frequent changes in such an era, Du Lin has long become a thorn in the eyes of countless people.
…
While people in Edward's Tavern were eagerly awaiting the new movie, on the streets of Northrick, Juno did not immediately go to the TV tavern or the cinema, but waited nervously at the city gate.
After a while, a convoy came from a distance. The convoy looked ordinary, loaded with various goods, and there was nothing special about the members.
As soon as he saw the convoy, Juno's expression became nervous.
The people in the convoy slowly walked down, and among them a white-haired old man walked towards them calmly step by step.
When he came in front of Juno, the girl said nervously at the first moment:
"Black Blade member Juno welcomes the Prophet."
Facing Juno's words, the old man's expression was very calm, and he said calmly:
"Don't make such suspicious moves. After we enter the city, I will be an ordinary tourist from the West, and you will be my granddaughter. Don't make any mistakes."
“Yes… yes!”
Despite answering like that, Juno still couldn't simply pretend.
Seeing her stiff look, the prophet sighed helplessly.
"Earlier, they asked you to come here as a spy. I strongly disagreed, thinking that you, a stupid girl, would be exposed sooner or later. But this time, you really made a great contribution, so don't be too nervous. Just treat me as an ordinary old man who knows nothing."
"I understand. First... Grandpa O'Harry."
"Haha, that's right."
From here, the two of them walked together into the crowded city.
While walking on the road, Juno asked with a little confusion:
"First...Grandpa O'Harry, why did you come here in person? To be honest, it's too dangerous."
"Haha, what's danger? To us, danger represents opportunity. Wasn't the kingdom established in the midst of crises?"
"But is it worth it just to watch a movie? There are many powerful and terrifying people in this city..."
"Haha, whether it's worth it or not depends on reading it. At least, after reading the contents of your letter, I feel that I must come here in person. The future of the Orc Kingdom may be determined by it."
"this… "
Not expecting the prophet's attitude to be so serious, Juno finally nodded.
The two of them immediately headed to the Northrick Cinema. The first movie they wanted to watch was naturally the much anticipated second chapter of the movie "Fate Zero"!
Chapter 159: The second chapter of "Fate Zero" is released! (I)
Chapter 159
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! The movie is about to start!"
"I got up a little late, damn!"
"No matter what, we can't miss any of the plot!"
"I haven't had any water so far, and I went to the bathroom several times just now. I will never leave the venue midway this time no matter what!"
"You guys are working too hard..."
"What qualifications do you have to say that? The dark circles under your eyes haven't even gone away yet!"
Amid the turbulent wave, even in the freezing winter, a large number of people in Northrick still rushed to the cinema.
Compared to "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World" and "Sara no Kyoukai" shown on TV, many people are obviously more looking forward to the movie "Fate Zero" released today.
After all, at the end of the last plot, all the masters and heroic spirits in "Fate Zero" had discovered the changes on the sea and were ready for battle.
Right now, everyone is looking forward to the subsequent plot, eager to see more intense confrontations between the masters and heroic spirits.
In addition to ordinary people, the Northrick Cinema also welcomed some special guests this time.
When Du Lin led a large group of people from Edward Studios to the cinema, what he saw were the familiar General Wilhelm, Knight Commander Wycliffe, Rhine, and a large group of knights who participated in "Fate Zero".
In addition to these old acquaintances, standing next to Wilhelm was a familiar and kind old man, the current King of the Empire, Hubbard, and his little daughter.
