I have something to do this afternoon, two chapters combined into one, 4,000 words.

............

Two and a half months later.

Zhu Yourong raised his head and saw a huge poster under the neon billboard opposite, telling everyone that the movie "The Godfather" would be released today.

Ah, accidentally, two and a half months passed, and Shen Yu was still alive and kicking.

Shen Yu’s net worth is innocent!

This sentence is very important and needs to be mentioned again.

He lived alone in Los Angeles for three years. During these three years, he was no different from an ordinary dream-chasing boy. He worked hard, did not engage in prostitution or gambling, had no criminal record, and even saved people's lives twice.

No one said anything when Zhu Yourong attacked Tianyitang, but if he suppressed Shen Yu, it would be very troublesome.

Such a person rose up the last afterglow of Tianyitang - in Zhu Yourong's eyes, Shen Yu's ability to attract funds was probably due to his previous relationships with Tianyitang, and the emergence of these relationships gave Zhu Yourong a bit of a headache.

It's better to be a bachelor than to be beaten, but who among the powerful people in various places doesn't commit some crime? Many people let their children go to different fields, or become scholars, lawyers, musicians, etc., just because they are afraid that if something happens, they will be able to spread the line. Come down.

For example, in The Godfather, the son of the new godfather did not get involved in the family business at all, so no matter how much trouble he made later, no one sought revenge on the godfather's own son.

You can kill powerful people legally, reasonably and even by despicable means, including using unfair means to send people in and shoot them, and they will admit it. Anyway, it's okay to kill people at the highest official level, but if you want to kill everyone, even if you are innocent, Innocent children will not be spared, so don't blame them for resisting desperately.

This is a taboo, which is why Wu Yuanyuan told Zhu Yourong to stop making trouble.

Even if it's the royal family... they are more determined to prevent you from ascending to the throne, and even unrelated people will join forces to crush you to death.

What's more, Shen Yu is very reasonable. He just scolded you and didn't find anyone to assassinate you. What else do you want?

From that moment on, Zhu Yourong understood that he had only two ways to go now.

First, let someone kill Shen Yu.

Second, let this matter go for now and wait until Shen Yu reveals his flaws.

The more entangled you are, the more points you will lose, and there may even be new funds coming in to support Shen Yu in making movies, which will be used to slap the royal family in the face.

Zhu Yourong asked people to pay attention to Shen Yu's every move at all times.

He is not a perfect saint, he already remembers Shen Yu very much in his heart.

Then, he put the matter behind him, returned to the east coast, got a promotion, and devoted himself to fighting criminals. He was busy for two and a half months, but when he looked up, he saw the poster posted over there.

"Boss, is this movie released? How many days has it been since the book was released?"

A police officer was a little surprised and said that three months ago, the book "The Godfather" was released in the United States and became a bestseller. It was talked about in the streets and alleys. Many police officers also bought the book and gave good reviews after reading it.

I really want to meet such a godfather, who gives money easily, has no side effects and knows how to advance and retreat. We can make a fortune together instead of cheating each other.

It is said that some social organizations have reorganized their organizations and set up military divisions, action teams, etc. based on some of the contents of this book.

"Well, it's a bit fast. Let's go take a look tonight."

Zhu Yourong nodded, with no trace of anger on his face.

How could it not be fast? Among Shen Yu's investors, there are judges, distributors, policemen, and second-generation people. These people combine to pave the way for a movie in advance. How could it be slow?

Very interesting and hopefully a good movie.

Three hours later, Zhu Yourong and several policemen came out. Seeing how excited and enjoying they were, Zhu Yourong suddenly felt a little unhappy.

Although he had to admit that Shen Yu was a very talented young man, all this was too unpleasant.

"Boss, can we watch it again?"

One team member said this.

"Bah, what a rubbish movie, let's go have sex!"

…

Three days later, Seattle, USA.

Zhen Qifa and several companions, wearing pajamas, chatted in the hotel suite.

Tourists from the Ming Dynasty generally choose to travel to Southeast Asia, Borneo, or Japan. These places have been influenced by the Ming civilization, and various service industries are very developed.

Or go to Europe, which is another center of civilization besides the Ming Dynasty. Wandering there, you can see the vicissitudes of history.

There are relatively few people coming to the United States. Everyone has the impression that the United States is a backward agricultural country. It takes a long time to fly and the air tickets are not cheap. The cost of one trip is enough for ordinary people to spend a week.

Zhen Qifa didn't care about the small money. As a small bookstore owner, Zhen Qafa and a few friends had no worries about food and clothing. What they liked most was wandering around the world. It was their first time to come to the American continent and they felt it was okay.

The level of prosperity is really much worse than that of the Ming Dynasty. Fortunately, some industries are good, but Zhen Qifa and others did not choose that. Several of them have long passed their youth and feel that women are too troublesome.

"Hey, Lao Li, what are you reading?"

A high-end hotel costs eighty dollars a night. The room is large and there are display cabinets with some travel products, as well as some books and comics.

Everyone sits here in the evening, reading and chatting.

Zhen Qifa likes Batman comics very much and plans to buy a few more sets this time.

"I'm reading this book, Godfather."

Lao Li held up the book, and there were two plain text words on it. The official texts of the United States are plain text and English, and many books also have two versions.

"This book is really good and interesting."

Lao Li was obviously immersed in it. He said a few words and continued reading.

"It seems like this book is really good."

Zhen Qifa became interested, so he rang the doorbell and asked the waiter to bring some more books.

The waiter quickly brought the book over and told everyone that the movie adapted from this book is now showing. If you want to watch it, the hotel can book tickets on your behalf.

"Book a ticket?"

Zhen Qi was stunned for a moment.

"Well, the book The Godfather has become popular all over the country in the past few months. Many people are watching it. The movie adaptation has also aroused everyone's interest. The movie was released four days ago. Many people went to watch it. After watching it, I recommended it to everyone. , it has been passed down from person to person, and now it is difficult to get a ticket. If these gentlemen go now, they may not be able to buy tickets, so it is best to book in advance."

"Ah? You also have a phenomenal movie here?"

The speaker is Lao Li. He not only loves to read books, but is also a senior movie enthusiast.

“What is a phenomenal movie?”

The waiter didn't understand what Lao Li meant. After Lao Li explained it to him, he understood.

"Ah, yes, the Godfather movie is really good. Aleksandr has been watching one every day these days and said it is so good.

I also watched it once, and it was not only good to watch, but also plentiful (unlike in later generations, many people did not like long movies. In the early days, when people in many countries watched movies, they felt that the longer they were, the more worthwhile they were)

The waiter danced and told everyone about the Godfather movie, which aroused a lot of interest in several people.

"Okay, please book five tickets, thank you."

Zhen Qifa stuffed a few bills into the waiter's pocket and said.

"Well, maybe, this country's movies can give us a little surprise."

He said this, and several of his companions also laughed.

Movies are the pearl of industry and culture. Small countries and backward countries cannot afford it. Although the United States is not bad, the quality of its movies is just that. Everyone has seen shoddy movies made in the United States, which are more than one level worse than Ming Dynasty movies. As for the

As for service, everyone just thinks that people here may have a low level of appreciation. As for other things, don't have high expectations.

However, after reading the book that night, everyone's expectations suddenly increased.

The book "The Godfather" is really well written, but I don't know how the director would shoot it.

By the way, I heard that the director and the author are the same person, which is good. At least you will understand the work, and there will be no adaptation of the work without having read the original work.

At five o'clock in the afternoon the next day, five people came to the cinema. They found that there was already a long queue outside. Many people were waiting and talking about the quality of the movie.

Among them, several people who had watched it once spontaneously introduced the movie to everyone. Their voices were a bit strange and vague, and they said they were the way the protagonist spoke.

Zhen Qi led the five of them into the cinema without talking to the people around them. The seats were already packed inside. The old-fashioned wooden and iron movie chairs were not very comfortable to sit on, and the facilities in the cinema were not very good. However, when the movie started,

After that, everything ceased to exist.

What kind of monster is this movie?

Watching this movie will make everyone tremble all over, with tremors coming from their souls!

Zhen Qifa and the other five people thought that this foreign movie would make them unable to understand some local customs, but they did not expect that they would see the best movie in their lives.

currently.

Even after many years, Zhen Qifa still believes that The Godfather is the best movie he has ever seen.

Although Director Shen later made many movies and achieved unprecedented miracles in the history of human culture, transcending the boundaries of human fantasy and towering the Tower of Babel from the ground into the sky, he still could not forget the shock of tonight.

I like The Godfather the most, and even more...

Yes, it's a really good movie.

"I heard that the filming only took 45 days?"

Someone asked in confusion.
To be continued...
