Chapter 720

The interview program of Fox TV station has already ended, and the TV has been turned off. There is no sound in the living room. Daisy stands still, her white face under her short golden hair is as cold as the ice and snow in Antarctica. She may freeze the whole house at any time.

"Traitor!" There was only one thought in Daisy's head, "Murphy Stanton is a traitor!"

More than ten years ago, she was just a 16-year-old girl, crazy infatuated with his movies, and then crazy worship of his dark and evil ideas, he accompanied her for ten years, she also accompanied him for ten years, she is so worship him, so that he is his own faith

It was not until this moment that Daisy realized she was wrong.

In the past ten years, her original intention has not changed, but Murphy, who has gone from unknown newcomer to super director, has changed.

He is no longer crazy, no longer dark, no longer evil, no longer independent, he became like other people in Hollywood, no thought, no soul

If it's just like this, it doesn't matter. Now that she has a new belief, it's better to be a passer-by in the future. However, he denounced her on TV programs. It's not a traitor. What is it?

He betrayed the original idea, betrayed the dark thought, betrayed the essence of evil, more importantly, he betrayed She!

Thinking of this, Daisy felt a pain in her heart. The pain in her heart, the loss of being abandoned by her faith, was more painful than cutting a bone and flesh, and made her crazy!

Daisy felt her body shaking for no reason. She couldn't stand any longer. She squatted on the floor, put her hands on the floor, opened her mouth and made a retching sound. Two lines of tears ran down her white cheeks.

She squatted here, tears dripping down, the pain in her heart flowing with the tears, the past worship of Murphy also flow away.

I don't know how long it took, Daisy's tears almost all dried up. She finally felt better. Her hands on the floor made a little effort, and she stood up slowly. Then she raised her hands to wipe the last tears from the corners of her eyes. Her face hardened little by little, like a cold stone.

"I've been betrayed!" She muttered to herself, "I've been betrayed..."

After a few murmurs, Daisy turned and walked toward the basement, talking to herself as she walked, "traitors have to pay! The price of life

She went through the corridor to the entrance of the basement, opened the mechanical lock on the door, and went down the stairs step by step. Every step was extremely slow and heavy.

Entering the basement, Daisy looked up at the huge magician photo frame on the wall and said, "only you can't change, you are mine Faith

She went into a corner of the basement, rummaged over the shelves and found a huge poster of Murphy that she had posted at home before.

Daisy unfolded the poster and saw Murphy Stanton with a faint smile on it. Her eyes suddenly became extremely sharp.

"Traitor!" She said unconsciously, "damn Traitor

Resisting the urge to tear up the poster, Daisy pasted it on the basement wall, took out a bright red lipstick and wrote "traitor" on it.

She stood opposite the poster and looked at it for a while. She raised her lipstick hand again. On the poster, Murphy Stanton's head was painted with a red "X" symbol of the project!

In this case, let the black, crazy and evil Murphy live in his memory!

After the TV interview, although the controversy and criticism of "dark city" is still loud, the fans of Murphy who only fought back sporadically have united. How can the decentralized attack be comparable to the overall battle? Massive voices supporting Murphy and "dark city" have rapidly appeared on the Internet, plus the media of 20th Century Fox and News Corporation Public opinion split into two groups for a while.

Led by some Catholic media, one group is crazy about Murphy and the city of darkness, and even Hollywood film and its self censorship system; the other group is firmly on the stand of Murphy and the film industry.

In particular, the media related to the six major Hollywood companies have been on Murphy's side after the exposure of some remarks made by Archbishop Marcos Costello.

To a certain extent, they have common interests with Murphy and 20th century fox, and Hollywood's film industry has developed to the present prosperous situation, no one wants to let the power of the church in.

Who likes to make money when they are happy, suddenly someone jumps out and puts on a pair of handcuffs restricting their freedom of movement?

Murphy also commissioned a professional research company to learn about the public's views, specifically the position of ordinary people.

The results of the survey were quickly fed back to Murphy. Among the more than 6000 people who were asked by the survey company from the streets and alleys of major cities in the United States, nearly 85% of them had a surprisingly consistent view - none of my business!To be more specific, after the shooting of China Grand Theater in Hollywood and the subsequent murder in the park, as well as the media's crazy criticism of the city of darkness, how to eat, how to drink, how to sleep, how to play or how to play, these people just regard these as some talks after dinner, which is totally pure It's just the bystanders who are watching.

As for the so-called negative effects of "dark city" or Hollywood movies? These people don't care at all.

How to think and how to do are two different things. Most of the time, it's not the head that decides people's position, but the position they sit on. For example, the Catholic Church. Why do they hold on to this incident just because there are Catholics among the victims?

It's impossible to say that movies can't affect society. Just as movies themselves are deeply influenced by social environment, hot movies will affect society in turn.

Gradually, a lot of mainstream media quietly stood on Murphy's side.

"At any time, the film should not give up the propaganda of the mainstream values, which have nothing to do with ideology and have universal values. The film should not become an aspirin that paralyzes the audience and ignores the reality, nor a formalin that preserves the dark side of the audience's heart."

"The most fascinating feature of the film is that she can create a dream world for people, forget her troubles temporarily, and find her own happiness and satisfaction in the fantasy world."

"Of course, this joy and satisfaction cannot be built on the suffering of others."

"It's too much to let movies pay for real social phenomena."

When the Archbishop of Marcos Costello and the Catholic Convention and exhibition showed their ambition for Hollywood, many media suddenly changed their stance, from attacking Murphy to supporters.

Most of these media come from NBC global group, News Corporation, Walt Disney, conscast and even Time Warner. They all have a common feature. They all have a powerful Hollywood film production and distribution company. Perhaps only by watching the ticket property, these film companies are insignificant in the huge industrial structure of these media groups, but they are the most important Important content providers, it is with these content, the media group will derive a larger industrial group.

For example, Walt Disney and time warner are the most representative companies.

However, the controversy over the city of darkness has not been interrupted, and some of the forces behind the media do not want to be interrupted.

"The reason why Murphy Stanton and his works are frightening is that you can feel the great provocation brought by the film. It arouses everyone's consciousness of resisting the existing social rules. The audience often see that they will begin to expect the villain to kill the positive characters. The positive characters have become the biggest obstacle to the social revolution, and these villains have become the opportunity to smash the country The hero of the instrument has aroused people to follow suit. "

That's good. Some of the comments are directed at Murphy himself.

"In this world, only a mad director like Murphy Stanton can create such a perverse antisocial role as a magician, thus producing a crazy killer who imitates a magician!"

Some so-called well-informed people told the media, "Murphy Stanton is also saying privately that I don't know whether I should blame the murderer or myself for so many things."

Public opinion is often the vanguard of some actions!

With the occurrence of the second murder, the situation became more and more complicated. Even some moral organizations and religious figures appeared one after another in front of fox building in Century City and near wave manor in Beverly Hills after Independence Day holiday. They not only held various slogans and flags to protest, but also suggested that the Federal government should force the city of darkness down.

It's very difficult for these so-called organizations to really accomplish anything, but no one can ignore their destructive ability.

In particular, religious organizations dominated by the Catholic Church have a large number of believers even though they have little influence in south central California. It is not difficult to gather hundreds or even thousands of devout believers to protest in front of Murphy's house.

Despite the enormous pressure, Murphy and 20th Century Fox would not agree with their unreasonable request for "dark city" to be released ahead of time. It's unnecessary to think about such a thing.

And those people not only apologized to the city of darkness, but also to Murphy, especially to the Catholic Church, reflecting on his own film making ideas and his past actions of slandering Catholicism.

In the face of all kinds of complicated situations, Stanton's followers rushed back to Los Angeles.
