But in this world, the plot of the movie is real history, so it is naturally easier to evoke emotion and resonance from the audience.
"Captain America's character is truly noble!"
"This is also a great movie, and I believe it will cause a sensation throughout the entire Federation after its release!"
"An absolutely perfect movie, this is the Captain America I've always imagined!"
"..."
Many journalists and film critics present gave it extremely high praise.
Mark ignored the chatter and focused his attention on finding the person who planted the bomb.
The movie had already finished, and the other party should be about to make their move, otherwise it would be too late once everyone left.
Sure enough, just as Mark had this thought, he heard someone in the room suddenly start pounding their heart, seemingly extremely excited and agitated.
Mark looked in the direction of the heartbeat and saw a young man wearing glasses suddenly rush out of the projector room and run quickly toward the front desk of the projection hall.
Everyone looked at the young man in surprise, wondering what he wanted to do.
The young man ran straight to the front desk, picked up a microphone from the table next to him, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, hello! My name is Khalid Gabriel, I am the projectionist here, and also an Arab immigrant."
Upon hearing the young man reveal his identity, the crowd erupted in uproar, and their gazes toward him became wary.
The Federation is currently at war with various Middle Eastern countries, and Middle Easterners frequently infiltrate the Federation to carry out various terrorist attacks. They will instinctively be wary of such people.
Chapter 135 Box Office Success
Khalid then became agitated.
"You damned Americans, you shout about human rights, but where were your human rights when you bombed our homes with missiles? My parents, my wife, and my daughter back home all died in your bombing!"
"To tell you the truth, I have planted a lot of bombs in this screening room. None of you will escape today. I will make you all pay with your lives!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a remote control button and pressed it hard without hesitation!
He had been preparing for this day for a long time, and he believed that the deaths of so many celebrities and tycoons here would definitely shake the entire Federation.
"what!"
The crowd gasped in alarm, thinking he was about to detonate a bomb, and immediately covered their heads and hid in fear.
But as time passed, nothing happened at the scene.
"what happened?"
Khalid was also stunned for a moment, and pressed the remote control in his hand again and again, but there was no response at all.
"Quick, go and grab him!"
The person in charge of the screening room finally realized what was happening and quickly gave orders to the security guards nearby.
Five security guards rushed forward and pinned Khalid down.
"This...this is impossible! How can there be no response!"
Even after he was caught, Khalid was still frantically pressing the remote control in his hand, muttering in disbelief.
"Sorry, it was just a false alarm. This person is clearly insane; don't believe a word he says!"
The theater manager then stepped forward to explain to everyone.
If Khalid really managed to plant a bomb in the theater without the knowledge of all security personnel, it would be a major blunder in their theater security efforts!
To avoid damaging the theater's reputation, regardless of whether Khalid's words are true or false, they should be treated as false for now!
But the directors, celebrities, and reporters present were all taken aback.
They didn't have time to think about anything else at that moment, and hurriedly ran out of the theater to get away from this dangerous place first.
"Mark, let's hurry up and go!"
Rosalie, looking nervous, pulled Mark along and headed outside.
She was unaware that the crisis inside was resolved by Mark's early intervention.
The next day, what happened at the premiere of "Captain America" was broadcast throughout the entire Union via television, sparking countless discussions and attention.
At the same time, news also spread that numerous journalists and film critics had given the film extremely high praise!
People who were not originally interested in movies became interested in the film after hearing about the thrilling scene at the premiere, and decided to give it a try.
This incident can be considered a free advertisement for Captain America.
Meanwhile, at the Los Angeles Police Department, a group of high-ranking officers looked at the still-frozen emulsion bomb with utter bewilderment.
"This is the bomb found at the El Er Theatre—the suspect Khalid was not lying; he did indeed plant four bombs inside the theatre."
The bomb disposal team leader told everyone about their discovery: "However, these bombs have been destroyed by the low temperature and have lost their activity, so they cannot be detonated."
"But it's not winter now, and the temperature in the screening room was normal last night. How could it possibly reach the low temperature needed to freeze an emulsion bomb?"
The police chief asked, looking puzzled.
“We don’t know either! But the electronic equipment used to detonate the bomb seems to have been frozen and damaged. It would take at least -80 degrees Celsius to do that, which makes it even more incredible.”
The bomb disposal team leader then recounted an even more incredible discovery.
The Los Angeles Police Department was ultimately unable to explain this mysterious phenomenon and could only seal the information away, not releasing it to the public.
Whether spurred by the terrorist attack or by the positive reviews from media reporters and film critics who attended the premiere, "Captain America" grossed $3427 million on its opening day.
In the following days, the word-of-mouth for "Captain America" continued to grow, and the box office results continued to climb, reaching $5100 million in a single day a week later.
As expected, Captain America topped the North American box office with $2.5 million, even breaking previous weekly box office records.
Such achievements shocked a host of Hollywood film and television companies.
They never expected that a film produced by a small film company like Payne Films could achieve such great success.
Those distribution companies that missed out on collaboration opportunities because they didn't have a good grasp of the film are now kicking themselves!
Everyone at Payne Films was extremely pleased with this achievement.
Brian and Ivy both called Mark to thank him.
The two played Bucky, the second male lead, and Lorraine, the second female lead, respectively, in the movie.
With the movie's huge success, the two have become much more famous, and now many people recognize them on the street, marking their entry into the ranks of celebrities.
Becoming a star has always been their dream, and now that dream has been partially realized, they are naturally extremely grateful to Mark for bringing them all this.
Inside an ordinary movie theater in Los Angeles.
Coulson ate his fries while watching Captain America on the big screen with great interest.
This is Coulson's third time watching it.
As a die-hard Captain America fan, Coulson went to the theater to watch the movie as soon as it was released.
He had already decided that if the movie wasn't good, he would use his connections at S.H.I.E.L.D. to have it shut down, so as not to tarnish the hero in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the movie turned out to be extremely well-made, perfectly capturing his image of Captain America!
Especially when Steve bravely piloted the plane into the sea to avoid accidentally harming civilians, even the tough guy Coulson cried his eyes out.
Coulson had read S.H.I.E.L.D.'s classified documents and knew that there were not only bombs on the plane, but also the Tesseract.
For years, S.H.I.E.L.D. has been secretly salvaging the area near where Steve Rogers fell into the sea, with the main goal of finding the Tesseract.
Of course, Coulson also expressed his understanding that this point was not mentioned in the movie, as such confidential information could not possibly be known to the outside world.
Just as Coulson was engrossed in watching, his phone suddenly rang.
He picked up the phone and saw that it was Nick Fury calling, so he quickly answered the call.
"Coulson, I asked you to find a way to contact that Superman. Have you made any progress?"
Nick Fury's deep voice came through the phone.
"I'm sorry, Chief, Mr. Superman has rarely been seen in Los Angeles lately, and we simply can't find him."
"I can't help it," Coulson said helplessly.
"According to the intelligence I have, he was spotted in New York some time ago, and he may have returned to Los Angeles now! Be prepared these days, and if he reappears, contact him immediately."
Chapter 136 Lieutenant General Ross's Dissatisfaction
According to information obtained by Nick Fury, that "Superman" killed many people in New York.
Although those killed were all gang members or members of criminal organizations, it is enough to show that "Superman" is not as harmless as he previously appeared.
This made Nick Fury even more wary of Superman, but also less willing to provoke him easily, lest he push him directly to the opposite side of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Therefore, Nick Fury's order to Coulson was to make sure to approach Superman in a "friendly" manner and absolutely not to make enemies.
new York.
Tony had also booked a screening room at Stark Theatres, and he and Happy were watching "Captain America" together.
Tony didn't usually like watching these kinds of movies.
Although Steve was a close friend of his father, Tony still felt that he was just a propaganda tool put forward by the U.S. government.
But since Mark invested in and produced this movie, and it was distributed by Stark Pictures, Tony had to go see it in theaters no matter what.
Once the movie started, Tony was surprised to find that it was actually quite good!
The movie doesn't dogmatically promote how great Steve Rogers, Captain America, is.
Instead, it starts from when he was still an ordinary person, and then tells how he gradually grew into Captain America in the eyes of the public.
The storyline perfectly recreates that period of history while also having the feel of a Hollywood superhero blockbuster, no wonder the movie became an instant hit as soon as it was released.
"Why does this person look so annoying?"
However, when Tony saw Bucky, played by Brand, he frowned and instinctively felt a sense of disgust towards the character.
But it shouldn't be like this, in theory.
In the movie, Bucky is Steve's good friend. After being captured by Hydra, he did not submit and fought bravely after being rescued. He is Steve's most trusted partner.
In the end, in order to capture Zora, Buggy even sacrificed his life, falling off a cliff.
Logically speaking, Tony shouldn't have felt disgusted by such a heroic figure at first sight.
"Never mind, maybe I just don't like this actor!"
Tony shook his head and ignored it, continuing to focus on the movie plot.
After watching the movie, Tony's impression of Steve Rogers, the Captain America, changed significantly.
Regardless of whether Tony approves of Steve's way of doing things, at this moment he has to admit that the other is indeed a hero!
Tony is not alone in changing his impression of Steve after watching the movie.
People who previously thought Steve was just a tool of federal propaganda have completely changed their opinion of him.
Those who originally idolized Captain America became even more devoted to him after watching the movie.
Of course, the release of the movie "Captain America" also caused dissatisfaction among some people.
The Pentagon, the military command office.
Lieutenant General Ross sat in his office, watching a clip of Captain America sent to him by his subordinates, his expression not very pleasant.
His expression darkened even more when he saw the scene of Steve injecting the super soldier serum in the bio-pod.
"Hmph! This movie contains many state secrets; how can it be released to the public like this?"
Lieutenant General Ross slammed his hand on the desk and said with dissatisfaction.
The gamma pulse experiment project currently being led by Lieutenant General Ross aims to replicate the super soldier serum injected into Steve Rogers, in order to mass-produce super soldiers for the military.
This project required absolute secrecy. Dr. Bruce Banner, who was in charge of the experiment, and the other participants did not know the purpose of the experiment!
Even Betty Ross, who was his deputy and Lieutenant General Ross's daughter, was unaware of the situation.
However, now that the movie "Captain America" has been released, if the people involved in the experiment watch the movie, they may well connect the super soldier serum with their experimental project.
Unfortunately, this movie was distributed by Stark Pictures.
Although Lieutenant General Ross is a high-ranking military officer, he cannot ban the film without sufficient justification.
