The "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" trailer is causing the expected buzz.
For a time, many people in the streets and alleys were talking about this movie.
Many stores put such devices in their stores in order to attract customers - it's like installing a small TV in a restaurant on earth. The magic phone can also project the screen onto the wall. Therefore, at present, many people who have not reached the consumption level of the shopping malls in the devil world can also see the things that nobles and gentlemen usually watch through these stores. For example, the second season of "Natsume's Book of Friends" some time ago, such as the promotional video of "Pirates of the Caribbean".
Therefore, Hill still encourages this kind of behavior from the merchants. He also plans to put some movies that have already collected money in the cinema on the magic phone after shooting more movies in the future, so that ordinary people can also enjoy that taste.
Back to the movie itself. At present, Hill has made many films, the largest of which should be "The Evil Lord". However, there are actually relatively few actors in "The Evil Lord", and most of the big scenes come from combat special effects and post-production. It actually involves the imperial war, but there are only a few scenes on the battlefield, and it is the scene of two waves of people fighting each other. Those soldiers were all played by demons.
Compared with them, "Pirates of the Caribbean" is indeed a big-budget movie.
However, the opportunistic trick is that the actors are originally pirates, and Hill only needs to control the overall situation. The actors can solve many problems by themselves, which saves Hill a lot of effort.
But even so, it takes a lot of energy. After all, making a movie is not an easy task.
Hill understands this, and he is constantly learning while shooting, and learning professional skills in private and on his mobile phone. At present, he can directly copy the original shots, but he also hopes that his director level can go further.
This promotional film showing the charm of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is naturally admirable. It fully captures the selling point of the movie, the thrilling scenes-gold coins, curses, beauties, handsome guys... coupled with unique character modeling and It is a wonderful fight, and it looks very humorous and funny. It can be said that all the elements are complete, which successfully attracts the attention of the audience, meets the needs of various people, and arouses their interest in watching movies in the mall. .
"Pirates of the Caribbean" is going to be screened in Yulan Empire and Ice Empire Muelheim, so the promotion has also started in Muelheim.
There is a huge screen in the restaurant on the second floor of the Demon World Mall in Winter City. On weekdays, there will be some jewelry advertisements, and occasionally new dishes will be advertised. The food at the Devil's Emporium has taken Winterfell by storm at the moment, so all Hill did was put a few more promos on the second-floor advertising space during meal times—and the movie would take care of everything.
Different from other places, the promotional film of Winter City is specially made, and a basic introduction about the concept of film is added at the end: this is a form of performance similar to a stage play, but it is more exciting and real, making People are there.
Coupled with the cool promotional video, this made everyone in Winter City very curious.
But of course Winter City cannot be compared with Magnolia City, after all the great nobles live in their own territories. However, the great nobles will leave one of their children in Winter City, which is an expression of loyalty to the royal family.
In a blink of an eye, February 13th arrived, which is the day before Valentine's Day and the day "Pirates of the Caribbean" was released.
Many people walked into the theater on this day. The Yulan Empire audiences were of all ages, while the Ice Empire audiences were mostly young people. The Devil's Emporium is the current trend in Winter City, and they are all for fashion.
By the way, the newly opened Demon Realm shopping malls in other cities of the Yulan Empire have released previous movies, and the residents there are no less popular with the Demon Realm shopping malls than Yulan City and Josh Kenny, so naturally a large number of people go to the movies up.
Magnolia Empire. josh kenny.
After the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean" ended, Josh Kenny has been in a carnival that is no less than New Year's. People who were not in Josh Kenny during this period—including pirates and businessmen—were unknown when they came back, but they also joined the carnival after asking about the situation.
There are two reasons for the carnival. One is that His Royal Highness Greenwald filmed a movie about pirates, which made the pirates feel recognized and inflated.
The second reason is that the Demon World Market has launched canned food, and the price is very reasonable, which means that they don't have to endure stinky food when they sail in the future.
Pirates can be seen everywhere in the tavern raising their glasses and saying: "For the Pirates of the Caribbean!" "For Your Highness Greenwald!" "Long live Your Highness Greenwald!"
Hill's popularity among the group had reached a formidable proportion.
On February 13, the day of the film's premiere, it was naturally the peak of the carnival.
Today, many people gathered at the entrance of the Demon Realm Mall, or a lot of pirates. The atmosphere here is a bit weird. Some little pirates are trembling but quite excited. It seems that someone is causing trouble. But the law enforcement team took a look and slipped away, because there were two pirate kings standing at the door.
There are noisy discussions all around.
"Then, those are Philip from the Sea God's Sacrifice and Flynn from the Gold!"
"Who? Is that Philip with the monocle?"
"Yes, he is a powerful magician. He can call wind and rain, change the weather, and condense sea water into a sharp blade to pierce your heart!"
"But I think Rhodes of the Dead Bird is more terrifying. He can not only kill your people, but also enslave your soul!"
"But the Gold is also terrifying. Each of their pirates is equipped with a magic crystal gun. It's too scary..."
"As expected of the Four Great Pirates..."
"What are they doing here?"
The answer to this question is obvious. The reason they are here is of course to watch the movie.
Each of the four pirates has its own characteristics.
Captain Rhodes of the Bird of Death is ascetic as he seems to have no pursuits, and his Bird of Death floats around casually, but he is too powerful, so the pirates think that it is enough to respect him, there is no need to provoke him, and there is no need to Specially avoiding, there is not much conflict of interest anyway, he generally seems to be quite talkative, but the first officer is not talkative, especially not talkative.
Captain Duncan of the Invincible is very warlike and likes to kill. He has a group of similar people under his command. He is the object that all pirates hide from.
Captain Philip of the Sea God's Sacrifice is obsessed with magic research. He is a magician and he is also very exploitative, so he prefers to snatch books and other things. There wasn't much blood on his hands, he didn't like killing people, but he didn't mind killing people.
Flynn of the Gold is the most normal pirate, he pursues money and beautiful women, and is greedy for pleasure. He was the first pirate to start trading with the local natives of the Plague Islands. As a result, he got a lot of gold and equipped his men with a lot of magic crystal guns. Their pirate group is the one with the strongest comprehensive strength on the surface, because the magic crystal guns horrible. No matter how high the martial arts are, he can be knocked down with one shot. My lord, times have changed.
However, the price of the magic crystal gun is too high, and one shot means that the money is gone, so this is a bottom-of-the-box method, and it is generally not used. But Flynn deliberately spread the news so that everyone would fear him. Of course, this is indeed quite scary.
Fulin, who likes to enjoy himself, is naturally a frequent visitor to the Devil's Emporium. Before that, many people mentioned that the four legendary pirate kings also came to watch the movie, and they were talking about him.
And Philip has no interest in movies, he is addicted to books and cannot extricate himself. Until he heard that the protagonist of "The Evil Lord" has a Lich teacher, this setting made him walk into the movie theater.
And then, you know...
The pirates of the Sea God's Sacrifice have thus become frequent visitors to the cinema. They rewatched all the previous movies and were mesmerized.
Philip was very interested in the special effects in the movie. He saw that in the credits at the end of the movie, he saw that Ali was in charge of the special effects, followed by Lich in brackets. Ah Li... is also the one who played the Lich in "The Evil Lord".
The opponent's magic must be very powerful. Philip thought so. Full of longing.
He was undoubtedly surprised to meet the Golden Number here today. This was his first time participating in a film premiere, and he did not expect so many big shots to come, although he was one of them.
Of course, the major pirate groups have friction and some hatred. Everyone knows in their hearts that on the surface they put a few harsh words, saying that they must XXX next time they meet, but they will actually consciously avoid each other. Because it is a matter of face to speak harshly, but in a real fight, both sides will lose a lot. This problem is more real... This is a matter of convention among pirate captains, and the pirates below do not know it.
But after all, they are somewhat bloody, and if they do meet, they will really seek revenge.
"I didn't expect to meet you here." Philip said so lightly, "Since we met, please shed your skin before leaving. I'm sorry." He has always spoken in a gentle manner, and he looks very polite , but the content is very unpleasant.
"You scholars have a saying that you think twice before you act. I advise you, Philip, think carefully before talking to me." Flynn is obviously not easy to mess with.
"I don't bother talking to people like you." Philip said lightly, his eyes had already started to glow blue, and his white hair was also floating. The study of magic had taken its toll on his body, and his hair had nearly turned white. It looked like he was about to make a move.
Fulin and a few people around him also took out the magic crystal gun.
The sword is on the verge of breaking out.
Some pirates thought about hiding for a while, while others were very excited, just waiting for them to fight.
When the atmosphere was tense, a voice appeared:
"Stop it all for me."
What suddenly appeared was a third-party force, Rhodes, the captain of the Bird of Death.
Everyone exclaimed.
What a day today! Three of the four great pirate kings gathered together!
However, most of you also know that the Bird of Death is closely related to this movie, so it is only natural that Captain Rhodes will appear. But this premiere can bring together three pirate kings, which is amazing to say the least.
Compared with the first two, Rhodes is the most low-key, and many people don't know him, so everyone is very curious about him.
After today, many people are destined to remember his appearance and his bird of death.
The two pirate kings immediately glared at Rhodes.
"You guys have to call elsewhere, don't ruin the business of the mall." Rhodes said lightly.
The first officer said beside him: "Today is the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean", do you want to be blocked by the mall?"
"It's just a fire elemental spirit." Philip has a water elemental spirit, and he actually understands the power of such a big fire elemental spirit in the mall, but if he really fights, he has the title of the entire sea god.
"Don't forget the forces behind the mall." Rhodes looked at Philip and said unhurriedly, "If you insist on fighting today, then I will be your opponent."
Everyone around gasped. The captain of the Bird of Death is usually so low-key, but he turned out to speak such domineering words.
Sure enough, they are indeed the Four Pirate Kings.
Flynn frowned, while Philip was lost in thought. There are whispers all around.
At this moment, there was an exclamation from the outside. Philip looked over and found a girl sitting on the shoulder of a huge ghoul walking towards here.
Fortunately, these days, the Joshkenny are also used to the existence of the demons, otherwise their combination would probably scare a lot of people to death when they first appeared.
I remember someone yelled out again: "This is, this is the heroine of "The Overbearing Demon King Falls in Love with Me"!"
The girl seemed to have never heard of this, and the ghoul led her to Captain Rhodes, and she said in a calm voice, "You are better than that magician, but you don't have enough experience with the enemy, I'm afraid you will suffer."
This person knows Rhodes? And put on such a big tone
"Even so, I won't let them harm the Demon World Mall." Rhodes looked up at Leona on the shoulder of the ghoul, thought for a moment, and added, "Teacher."
teacher? She is Rhodes' teacher
Flynn panicked a little. Doesn't that mean that the person in front of him is a necromancer much stronger than Rhodes? He should consider getting out...
Philip's mind was also in turmoil, but it wasn't because of panic, but because of... envy.
Philip has basically been self-taught all the time. The status of mages is very high. Most of them are enshrined by nobles. He doesn't like ordinary mages. accept him.
"It is our duty to protect the mall in the Demon Realm, but you are still too weak, and the key is to preserve your strength." Leona Bell looked at the two captains over there after speaking, "Stop for now, okay? After all, you are Those who came to watch the movie, both sides take a step back now." After she finished speaking, she chuckled lightly, and used magic means to transmit the voice to the two of them: "After all, it's just a small loss of face, but at least I have my life saved, yes Bar?"
What she said is very clever, no one who can reach this position is a fool, and she also keenly understands the hidden meaning in the hearts of both parties. In fact, at that time, it is only necessary for someone to step back and earn enough face for the other party. She just used guidance + threats to easily resolve this incident. For the Dark Vatican, Leona Bell's wisdom is more important than her combat effectiveness.
After saying this, she understood the change of the other party's eyes like a new one. She jumped off the ghoul's shoulder very lightly, and took Rhode's arm affectionately in the past, "Let's go in, let's start right away!" .”
Rhodes looked down at her hand, and went in with her.
People from the Dark Holy See? Flynn thought to himself. That woman's strength should be unfathomable. Sure enough, that guy Rhodes has connections with the Dark Holy See. Forget it, it's not convenient to have an attack today. He wasn't afraid, he was here to watch the movie.
Philip also had similar thoughts, but what he thought more was, is that Rhodes' teacher? Rhodes has a teacher? Rhodes found a teacher in the Dark Vatican? Could he also find a teacher there? Just ask Rod after watching the movie...
After entering the Demon World Mall, Rhodes pulled out his hand, and Leona glanced at Rhodes with a smile, then kissed her fingertips, and then stepped into the shadows with the ghoul. This is the high-level illusion of necromancers.
"I thought you had changed, but it turned out to be as boring as before."
These are the words she left behind.
Outside the Demon Realm shopping mall, other people started talking after seeing the three pirate kings entering. Why did you stop calling all of a sudden? It's boring if you don't fight, right? Because Leona's last threatening words used magic means, they were only heard by those two people, so the others only heard 'you are here to watch a movie, take a step back from each other' here.
So... Could it be that they want to watch movies more than fight
Probably
After thinking about it for a long time, they felt that this must be the real reason.
Wow! The charm of the movie is so great!
— Well, Joan Baker's next promo looks to have it.

Magnolia Empire. Magnolia City.
A couple is walking into the Devil's Emporium together.
Noble girl: "Honey, I'm not interested in pirates, you have to understand, I came to watch a movie to accompany you."
Noble boy: "Okay, but I think it's really going to be a great movie, the fight scenes are so cool!"
Noble girl: "I still prefer the dreamy fairytale style in "The Daughter of the Sea", or the love story in The Demon King, forget it, since they are all here..."
Noble boy: "I think you like the demon men you raised in your magic phone more..."
Noble girl: "Hahaha, honey, they are just virtual characters, don't mind, I still love you." Although I still have a wild man.
The sounds of their conversation reached the Jacksons, and Olivia smiled and said to her brother, Jefferson Jackson, "It seems like a lot of girls like softer things."
Jefferson was a little surprised: "You used to talk about them in a mocking voice."
"Everyone has a different way of living." Olivia said, "I just chose to go further. They are willing to switch between their husbands and tea party ballroom dances. That's their business."
"Oh, I can see that you despise them more than ever," said Jefferson. "It was superficial contempt before, and now you despise them from the bottom of your heart."
"Is there?" Olivia smiled again, "You think too much, I don't look down on them, everyone has their own world, I am different from them now, and will be even more different in the future, they will not treat me What's the threat, so why should I have a bad feeling for them?"
have to. Jefferson thought. This is already interdimensional contempt. I can't save it... Forget it, this is pretty good. My sister is the best~
"However," Olivia smiled, "I think that girl will be moved by the movie, because beauty has something in common."
Listening to the conversation between his son and daughter, old Jackson felt peaceful.
They've all grown up.

milheim. Winter City.
Timber merchant Defoni has been doing well recently. After he drove the direwolves out with the power of the church, he rehired the lumberjacks who had run away. The lumberjack knew he had breached the contract, so he worked harder to avoid being fired, which put Defoney in a good mood.
But the only downside is that his current expenses are much higher than before, and the specific reason is of course the Demon Realm Mall. In addition to eating delicious food, he also bought a magic camera. He fell in love with photography almost immediately. He took a lot of beautiful photos: there are beautiful snow scenes in the taiga, the hard work of loggers, and the corpse of a direwolf. , and a small flower, the blue sky... He also spent a lot of money on magic film.
The food in the Devil's Emporium is so delicious that people can't forget it and even get mesmerized. After eating the food in the Evil Emporium, I feel that other foods are really hard to swallow. In fact, many people feel this way, including the Black family where Olivia's uncle lives.
Defoni made a painful decision to go to the Devil's Restaurant every two days, otherwise he would make himself poor.
That day he heard that the Demon Realm Mall was going to perform something similar to a stage play called "Movie". He was actually quite curious, but thinking that he should save more money, he didn't plan to go. What kind of movie, art, stage play, no matter how good it is, it can't be compared with food, right? He thought so. As a result, when he was enjoying a discounted single meal on the second floor that day, a promotional video of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was played on the screen on the second floor.
OK He thought dumbly in his heart. you win. you win. I'll go, can't I go and see? !
Why do you have to be so tempting! ! ! Why is food so delicious! ! ! Why is the promotional video so exciting! ! ! He was mad.
At this moment, Defoni walked into the movie theater with everyone, his mood was both entangled and looking forward to it, forget it, ordinary movie tickets are not particularly expensive anyway, so let’s just leave it at that...
Different places, different people, and different identities have entered different shopping malls in the devil world at this moment.
They have different thoughts and different thoughts, but they have the same purpose.
For — "Pirates of the Caribbean."
