Violence supervision in Conan

Chapter 568 The third team building activity at the brewery, Gin: Destroy it, I'm tired!

To ensure that box office revenue was not affected and to avoid the ridiculous situation of "self-destruction," "The Sixth Sense" and "The Silence of the Lambs" were released at different times.

Half a month after the release of "The Sixth Sense", "The Silence of the Lambs" is finally about to meet the audience.

Countless people have expressed their anticipation for this.

The success of "The Sixth Sense" once again proves the truth that Takeshi Ono's films are a guarantee of quality.

This also raised everyone's expectations for "The Silence of the Lambs" to the highest level.

Will this movie be as exciting as "The Sixth Sense" and can it continue the success of the former?
Most people are optimistic about this.

This is Takeshi Onino's reputation and appeal!
It is a brand built on a series of excellent films.

You can question whether Captain America's butt is shapely or not, but you can't question whether Takeshi Onino's movies are bad!

The day of the release of "The Silence of the Lambs" has finally arrived amidst the eager anticipation of the audience.

……

In the evening, just past six o'clock, all the cinemas under the Guiye Cinema chain were already packed with people who came to watch the movie.

Takeshi Ono once again proved with "The Sixth Sense" that he is a professional when it comes to making thrillers, so how could the audience not buy it?
The popularity of the former has carried over to this movie.

If The Sixth Sense was the prelude, then The Silence of the Lambs is undoubtedly the climax that is about to begin.

People are very much looking forward to it.

Among the bustling crowd were young couples, elderly people over fifty, people coming to the movie alone, and people coming with their friends.

Unfortunately, there were no children inside.

Unlike The Sixth Sense, The Silence of the Lambs is a true thriller. Putting everything else aside, just the sight of Hannibal Lecter standing there is terrifying enough.

Unlike the former, these scenes are closely related to the plot and characters. If they were cut, the quality of the film would undoubtedly be affected. Takeshi Ono would certainly not do such a mindless thing as killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Therefore, "The Silence of the Lambs" was ultimately rated R and is not suitable for viewers under the age of 17.

This is not a family-friendly movie to begin with.

Although it sacrificed a portion of the market, Takeshi Ono wasn't worried. He had nothing to lose; the title "The Silence of the Lambs" was enough for him!
If that's not enough, then add another name—

Hannibal!
……

"Big brother, are you really not going?"

At the distillery base, Vodka glanced at Gin, who had a gloomy face, hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't help but ask cautiously.

Click!

The sound of a bullet being chambered rang out instantly.

Vodka was shocked and hurriedly stammered an explanation: "B-Brother, these are Rum's orders, or... or maybe I shouldn't go..."

"roll!"

A chilling sound rang out, carrying undisguised murderous intent.

Vodka, however, felt as if he had been granted a pardon and hurriedly ran away without looking back.

Hearing the distant footsteps behind him, Gin's face turned ashen.

He never expected that Rum, that bastard, would issue such an order, making everyone at the distillery go see the movie "The Silence of the Lambs".

He even paid for it out of his own pocket!

How much do you want to see me make a fool of myself?
Gin almost exploded.

Since filming "The Silence of the Lambs," Gin has become unusually low-key, wanting to downplay the incident.

Others who knew about it either feared Gin's power or didn't want to offend him, so they tacitly refrained from mentioning it to his face.

Just when Gin was deceiving himself into thinking the matter was over, Rum suddenly appeared and issued an order that made him want to kill someone—

"To thank everyone for their hard work, the organization has decided to launch a benefit for everyone: let's all go see the newly released movie 'The Silence of the Lambs' as a group, and all expenses will be paid by the organization!"

Although he didn't mention Gin at all, he sensed a deep malice.

Gin understood Rum's intention almost immediately. After all, the relationship between the two was indeed somewhat delicate, and how could he not perceive some of the other's thoughts?

As the boss's confidants, the two sides naturally didn't get along.

No wonder Rum seized every opportunity to get rid of him. He did this simply to undermine his authority within the organization.

Even though he understood, it didn't stop Gin from wanting to grab a gun, find Rum, and shoot him dead!

Rum clearly shared this concern, so he cleverly used the guise of welfare to avoid mentioning Gin at all.

So what? As the second boss, I'm treating my hardworking employees to a movie to relax. Do you have a problem with that?

Gin was furious, but he also felt helpless about the situation.

Rum was still nominally his superior, and as a subordinate, he naturally had to obey orders.

Gin can find excuses not to go, but he can't stop others from going.

Rum's order was immediately met with enthusiastic support from everyone in the distillery.

Especially those peripheral personnel who are of low status and the largest number.

Free team building benefits! This is a rare sight in a distillery that's practically a cattle and horse concentration camp. Usually, the higher-ups always push them to their limits.

We can't miss such a rare opportunity for a change of heart.

Of course, this is the official version of events; how many people are secretly there to see Gin make a fool of himself is anyone's guess.

Within the organization, Gin doesn't have a very good reputation.

How could anyone have much goodwill towards an executioner who is either killing enemies or his own people?
Therefore, most people in the distillery have more fear than respect for Gin.

Now that we have this guy's entertainment to watch, we definitely can't miss it!

These people also had a perfectly legitimate excuse: it was Rum's order, how could they disobey it?

Gin:......

Destroy it, I'm tired!

Unfortunately, he couldn't stop the others, but Gin himself would never go.

And so, amidst everyone's anticipation and excitement (Gin: (︷)～Death Warning), the brewery's third team-building activity began.

Compared to the previous two "individual actions", this "collective action" initiated and executed by Rum is much larger in scale.

Almost everyone in the organization participated, even Rum, the cleaning lady who cleans the toilets.

They are all family members who work like cattle and horses for the organization (crossed out). In short, not one of them can be missing!
We are a family!
Anyway, it'll be reimbursed... cough cough!
So, a large group of men in black arrived in cinemas all over the country—no, it should be said all over the world—as "The Silence of the Lambs" was released simultaneously worldwide.

They looked somewhat fierce, yet each of them had a smile on their face, seemingly in a very good mood...

……

Ghostly Grand Theater.

In the screening room, all the codenamed cadres of the organization, including Vodka, Chianti, Cohen, and Ireland, as well as Bourbon, Vermouth, and others in disguise, were present.

Vodka enthusiastically bought a huge amount of popcorn and distributed it to everyone.

Thank you for your support, brother!

Bourbon took the popcorn from the other person and looked at Vodka, Chianti, and the others who were excitedly whispering and chattering about the movie. He was speechless.

This was the most unconventional order he had received during his time undercover at the distillery.

but……

Gin's movie... I'm really looking forward to it!
Although he had already seen the internal screening version, how could it be the same?

This kind of movie should be watched with everyone at the distillery!

Are we watching a movie? No, we're watching the atmosphere!

Even more speechless than Bourbon was Vermouth.

Before he even made a move, Rum had already done it for him?

So everyone thought of the same thing!

They're all such fun-loving people!
Well, at least it saves me money.

Amidst the anticipation and excitement of many, suddenly, the lights in the screening room dimmed…
