Dragon, choose cultural victory to make money
Chapter 287 Soft Power is Also Strength
There have been two hot events in Shuangta City recently.
One is a movie called "The Silence of the Lambs", which is extremely popular.
But there aren't many screenings.
Initially, it was only shown in Drogo's cinemas. After the popularity of the film was generated through spontaneous promotion online by viewers who had seen the film, the number of screenings was increased only in major cinemas in major cities.
But just because there is nowhere to watch it, this movie is full of mystery and even more popular.
Audiences who couldn't get tickets began to doubt that this movie was not intended to make money at the box office.
At the same time, the online discussion about "The Silence of the Lambs" is also confusing.
“A heartwarming and touching story about the mutual redemption between humans and the devil.”
“A deep analysis of the morbid criminal psychology, a must-read masterpiece for those studying crime detection.”
"It's suitable for audiences who are keen on seeking excitement. If you are brave enough, go to the Magic Cinema and experience it. You will definitely not regret it."
"Good Demon Shadow, I can learn the principles of being a human being from him."
……
In short, these reviews don't seem to be talking about the same movie, making people who haven't seen it even more curious.
I was so curious but couldn't get tickets, so I had to check online to see if there were any plot analyses or serious film reviews, rather than the above reviews that I didn't know whether they were true or not.
However, any article containing spoilers posted on the Internet will be severely banned by Drogo's claws.
No spoilers allowed.
Wait at least two more months before allowing spoilers.
The only part of the plot that you can know without watching The Dark Knight is that Detective Starling is a devil, but a good devil, and Hannibal is a highly intelligent cannibal, but an cannibal with a large number of fans, and these two work together to catch a criminal.
Then it was gone.
With its high popularity and mystery, it has also sparked discussions about the devil and various cruel cases in history.
The devil is a perennial villain in legendary stories, and a legendary adventurer would be embarrassed to be the protagonist of a story if he has not defeated the big devil.
By the way, another permanent villain is the five-colored dragon. The situation of the metallic dragon is better. They often serve as mentors to the protagonists, or mysterious characters who lend a helping hand in times of crisis.
As for the five-colored dragons, eight out of ten of them were chopped to death in the story.
Amid this heated discussion, people were surprised to find that all they knew about the devil was that he was bad and strong.
Little is known about the habits, traditions, specific species, culture, and what the life of a demon is like.
The church was considerate enough to make public many records about the devil, but those books were too obscure to understand.
How to describe it.
It is similar to the Chinese University textbooks and has extremely advanced anti-self-study settings.
Therefore, not many people read the church's scriptures.
Where there is demand, there is a market. A large number of "devil's decryption" articles written just to attract attention quickly appeared.
It can be as exaggerated as you want.
Even the goddess of magic has fallen. In fact, it is the devil disguised as the elite of other races who rule the world in secret.
The evidence provided was that in the magic vision machine, there were one or two blurry frames of some princes and ministers speaking in the news, and the pupils seemed to have turned vertical...
In the end, it was the Drogo Group that came out to restore order.
In collaboration with Asmodeus, Go to Hell filmed a documentary series, "The Nine Hells of Baator", which was simultaneously released on Magic Vision and YouTube.
There are a total of twenty-seven episodes, introducing the nine layers of hell. Each layer is divided into three episodes, explaining the three aspects of geography, species culture, and simple history.
Drogo is the nominal producer, the church is responsible for reviewing whether there is any inappropriate content, and the Lord of Hell himself is the voice actor.
Asmodeus' voice is quite suitable for dubbing, and it sounds like he has a lot of knowledge.
He himself likes this job very much. Maybe when he retires, he can become a David Attenborough from hell.
The overall production of the documentary strives to be truthful and pragmatic, without using special effects, and the images must be as beautiful and shocking as possible.
The demand for pictures is mainly to attract traffic to the future hell tourism industry.
After all, there aren’t many good local customs and stories to experience there, and the service industry is still in its infancy, so it can only rely on natural scenery to attract tourists.
Due to the high production requirements, only the first episode has been released so far, which tells the historical story of the first layer of hell, Avernus. Historical story scenes are easier to shoot.
The second episode is nowhere in sight, with the crew still watching the ogres baring their teeth in the wilderness beside the River Styx.
However, given the excellent quality of the first episode and its perfect capture of the recent popularity, it has a high number of views.
In addition to the devil, another hot topic of discussion is the many bizarre cases that actually happened in history.
Garrison regiments and institutions with similar functions in various places were pushed to the forefront.
Because people discovered that there are so many unsolved cases.
But there is also good news. There are really experts among the people. Through large-scale discussions, they have solved many unsolved cases and successfully cultivated a group of reasoning enthusiasts.
For a time, detective novels and suspense stage plays were very popular.
However, since most of them were rushed works to attract attention, the quality was not very good. Until the Drama Guild took action, they rehearsed the scripts left by Drogo, and the first one they took out was Edgar Allan Poe...
"The Silence of the Lambs" brought about a series of chain reactions in a short period of time.
The biggest reaction is the second hot event in the Twin Towers City.
The garrison announced a restructuring, and the newly recruited members of the garrison will have their own training directions, instead of having one group of people responsible for everything as before.
At the same time, the current head of the garrison announced a decision that shocked everyone in the city. He reached a cooperation with Hell to establish a new criminal psychology research institute. The members of this institute will be composed of Felin's intelligent life and the devil detective.
This was not something the captain decided on the spur of the moment because he was obsessed with Shadow and also wanted a Detective Starling.
The whole matter was discussed many times. First, the church clearly notified all countries that the general direction of the future with the devil clan was peace.
After researching, the Sutton royal family decided to be the first to try it out. Perhaps this would be an opportunity for Sutton to become the most powerful country in the future.
As one of the earliest countries to start the Industrial Revolution, Sutton began to have overcapacity.
They need a new market.
For this purpose, two pilot areas were found in Sutton. The first one was of course Waterdeep, where the inferior demons were already being used.
Drogo rejected the royal family's investment intention. He needed to maintain a high degree of autonomy in Waterdeep. It was good enough for him to pay taxes to Sutton, but he still wanted a say. No way.
However, Drogo still accepted the tax reduction conditions offered by Sutton. After all, the devils were going to live here anyway, so he might as well take advantage of the tax benefits.
As for the second pilot area, it is naturally the most open and inclusive city in Sutton, the Twin Towers City.
It is located just south of Waterdeep.
Compared to Drogo's territory, the attitude towards demons in the Twin Towers is much more cautious.
Soran and the City Lord's Mansion discussed for a long time where to start the first step of cooperation.
The initial idea was to start a business in the gaming industry, because gaming itself is a new and popular industry in the city. Whether it is production or competition, Feilin is at the leading level. The game development department of the Drogo Group is here, so it is close and easy to learn.
It just so happened that the devil had come to the city to play in a Red Alert game before, so the public should be more accepting of it. For example, we could recruit a few devil masters for the city's gaming clubs.
But this idea was immediately rejected by the city lord's daughter, Miss Grace.
"The Devils and the Twin Towers are not rivals in the game. They are mortal enemies. If you dare to recruit the Devils for the Sons of the Twin Cities, the fans of the team will smash our headquarters."
That's what Miss Grace said.
She was indeed right. A hundred years later, the match between the Sons of the Twin Cities and the Devil became the oldest and most intense derby in the gaming competition.
After the game idea was ruled out, the head of the garrison proposed the idea of cooperating with a criminal psychology research institution.
This civilian commander, on that fateful day, received a request for reinforcement from the Seventh Squad, claiming that a devil had appeared on Cornflower Street and the captain of the Seventh Squad had been surrounded.
I have to say that the guard who went to call for reinforcements had a talent for quoting things out of context.
A devil appeared on Cornflower Street, and the captain of Team 7 was surrounded by citizens who came to join in the fun.
He omitted the part about the citizens.
In the captain's opinion, the situation was extremely critical. A large number of demons appeared on the streets of Shuangta City and dared to surround the captain in the street!
"How many demons are there at the scene?" the team leader asked at the time.
"I don't know." The guard answered truthfully. He really didn't know. The captain only found out that Starling was a devil, and he was not sure if there were other devils.
What the captain heard was that there were so many demons that they could not be counted.
So he immediately led all the forces of the garrison and rushed to the scene.
Then I was tricked into going to the cinema and renting out the entire theater to watch The Magic Shadow.
Most of the senior officers of the Guards were influenced by "The Silence of the Lambs".
Although the team leader was scared to death that day, as he rarely went to the front line and had not seen many horrific scenes, he was still greatly inspired.
He feels that the film's approach of tracking Buffalo Bill through psychological research is very instructive.
The garrison regiment had solved cases before, and many old members had used a similar method, putting themselves in the shoes of the criminals and trying to guess what they were thinking.
Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
The most crucial thing is that compared to the abilities demonstrated by Hannibal in the film, the guards rely more on experience in terms of psychology, are relatively lacking in logic, and have a serious lack of theoretical support. Their success rate is not very high, so they are not taken seriously.
He specifically sought out the captain of Team 7 to talk to him. Although the captain's level was not very good, he was also a disciple of the senior who was the best at psychological reasoning in the group.
Maybe he didn’t learn much real skills, but he is still considered the “tallest among the short ones” in the current group.
After discussing with the captain and other senior members of the garrison, they reached a consensus that this method could be very effective if a rigorous theoretical system could be established.
With this idea in mind, the leader studied the texts about the devil provided by the church.
He is a highly educated and cultured person, so he can understand and appreciate it.
After reading a lot of books, I came to a conclusion that among the many rumors about the devil, one thing is definitely true.
The devil is really good at controlling people's hearts.
To be precise, they are good at grasping the hearts of all intelligent creatures, and they even deceive their own devils.
In addition to being experienced, the devil also masters a number of psychological spells. These spells are extremely rare in Felin, and the system is somewhat different from human spells, making them difficult to learn.
So the best way is to work directly with the devil.
The city lord was a little hesitant at first about the idea proposed by the garrison commander.
Isn’t it a bit too extreme to let the devil participate in solving the case? The public may not be able to accept it.
Finally, Sauron stepped forward and said he would keep an eye on these demons and would be responsible if any problems arose.
Among his long list of prefix titles, Guardian of the Twin Towers City is not just a title.
Not only did he protect the civilians of One Tower from Drogo's breath a hundred years ago, but of course, the main reason was that Drogo had no intention of harming the civilians and deliberately misdirected the breath.
After that, he considered the safety of Twin Towers City his own responsibility, and his credibility was quite guaranteed.
The Drogo Corporation also helped a little here, promising to invest in the new organization.
It's not for direct profit, but to speed up the process of Feilin accepting the devil.
The sooner the better.
He has booked so many attractions in hell, he is going to charge a lot for the tickets!
With the efforts of many parties, the Institute of Criminal Psychology was finally established.
Today is the day when the devilish "detectives" arrive.
As for why the word "detective" is put in quotation marks, of course it's because there is no such thing as a detective in hell.
There is not even an organization to maintain law and order, and whoever has the bigger fist is always right.
Asmodeus was troubled when choosing who to send.
He looked at the definitions of the word "detective" in the search and almost pulled out his already thinning hair.
Where in hell is there a devil that fits this definition?
In the end, it was Drogo's words that woke the ghost up.
"You find the best liars in hell, they are absolutely good at studying psychology."
So, the big liars in hell were organized on the spot.
A super smooth road to the civil service exam.
This was a big step for Hell to establish communication with Felin, and Asmodeus was also present in person, still looking like the familiar fat uncle.
He led a group of grotesque "detectives" to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony and public open day of the institute.
The tradition of cutting the ribbon comes from the historical ceremony of cutting the protective line before a new ship is launched, and it has been used ever since.
However, apart from the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Asmodeus didn't quite understand the other arrangements on the scene.
Because the research institute was built by Drogo's engineering team, the ribbon-cutting ceremony was also designed by Drogo Group.
Balloons, banners and a stage covered with red carpet, the entire setting of the event was red and yellow.
To be honest, it is in line with the devil's aesthetic, but doesn't Asmodeus know that humans also like this?
In response, Drogo commented, "It's a pity that there's still an inflatable arch missing."
A crowd of people waited under the flashing of cameras and cut the red ribbon together.
This was followed by a public meeting and a Q&A session with reporters.
The devils walked onto the stage one by one, and it was unclear who was more nervous, the devils on the stage or the audience below.
"Excuse me, did the devil come to Feilin with some ulterior motive?"
The first reporter asked. (End of this chapter)
