Chapter 403 "Resident Evil"

ps. There will be a lot of movie plots in this chapter and the next chapter. Book friends who don’t like to read can skip it, or they can understand everything...

Compared with the media resources controlled by big capital, personal resources are too small.

After Luo Quan negotiated the cooperation with Netflix, the next day the promotion of "Resident Evil" was spread on the Internet throughout North America.

YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Tiktok, Ins, IGN and other social media and forums, as long as Netflix has bought promotional space, all have "Resident Evil" movie posters added to them.

The content of the poster shows Luo Quan wearing a long red dress and holding a sand eagle. There is a large blank space in the background. There is a conspicuous "Umbrella Company" logo in the upper left corner, which is stained with blood.

The poster is pretty average, but the effect is also very intuitive. The biggest store on the surface of the film is Luoquan, and judging from the costumes, there should be a lot of action scenes in the film, which is very exciting.

In addition, Netflix’s own website homepage also places the movie’s poster in the most eye-catching position to ensure that every member who enters the website can see it.

Just a poster was not enough to attract a large number of passers-by to watch the movie. What really made "Resident Evil" popular was the two-minute movie trailer released by Netflix.

The trailer begins in darkness, with a slightly eerie and solemn soundtrack.

After a few seconds, a piece of red text appeared in the center of the screen:

"Resurrection of the dead, serial infections."

The screen suddenly lit up, and a blurry glass wall appeared in front of him. Countless faces were pressed against the glass, making noisy, piercing screams. Blood-stained hands left twisted blood marks on the glass.

The background music started to get louder from here, and the scene began to switch quickly between several protagonists and supporting characters. The content was either shooting or escaping. I created a tense and exciting atmosphere.

At the end of the trailer, the surviving protagonists finally stopped running, and everyone looked ahead with horror on their faces. From a direction invisible to the camera, there were waves of heavy footsteps.

The screen went blank, a huge roar sounded, and then fell into silence.

At the end of the trailer, an "Umbrella Company" logo appears again, with the title of the film appearing below the logo: "Resident Evil."

Judging from the content alone, this is definitely an excellent thriller trailer. The atmosphere is well rendered, the main attractions appear in turn, and it also leaves enough suspense. It also contains a lot of details.

With Netflix's vigorous promotion, the entry "Resident Evil" finally got rid of Luo Quan and appeared on Twitter's trend list alone.

Judging from the comments, netizens have shown considerable interest in this interesting-looking thriller:

"I've seen too many third-rate Hollywood horror movies, but "Resident Evil" gave me a special feeling. Maybe it's different from other low-quality thrillers?"

"I felt relieved when I saw Netflix. Like Luo Quan, the star of the movie, this is synonymous with quality."

"I finally waited for Luo Quan's movie as a heroine. Although she was very beautiful in "Lord of the Rings", her role was really lacking."

"I've watched "The Lord of the Rings" three times, and now I'm a little tired of this kind of epic blockbuster. I just want to watch something else for a change."

"I just looked at the credits of "Resident Evil", and there were all Luo Quan's names in the rows. Does she like to take care of everything just as much when she makes movies as when she writes songs?"

"It makes people feel at ease to have an arrangement. The works produced by Luo Quan have never been used to crotch!"

"It's hard to say, but Luo Quan is a complete newcomer in the film industry."

“Who doesn’t start as a newcomer?”

………………

Thanks to the good impression Luo Quan has accumulated in the hearts of fans and passers-by in the past, after the movie trailer came out, the comments section was basically full of positive reviews, and fans even expressed that they must contribute a movie ticket to Luo Quan.

But a man's mouth is a liar.

Luo Quan heard the same words from Luo too many times in China, and they all said that they would support her with money this time, but in the end, which time was it not a free prostitution?

That is to say, I was active once when I was crowdfunding to take a swimsuit photo shoot for her, but I just couldn't catch the rabbit in sight.

When it comes to spending power, the fans in Japan are more reliable.

Of course, her fans in the United States should still have good spending power. If the movie is good, they probably won't owe her the money for the movie ticket. The payment rate is still worth looking forward to.

Originally, Luo Quan wanted to wait for half a month before it was released, mainly to avoid "The Lord of the Rings". Now that it is broadcast online, there is no need to deliberately avoid it.

Of course, compared to offline theaters, the ticket price for online screenings is less, only $5, and can be watched repeatedly.

The trailer was fermented online for three days and attracted considerable attention and discussion.

Finally, in the early morning of January 12th, New York time, "Resident Evil" was officially released on Netflix.

In an ordinary rental house in New York, several boys entered the living room carrying chicken legs, French fries, and drinks bought from the fried chicken shop downstairs.

"Hurry up Brooke, "Resident Evil" has been aired. I can't wait to watch my goddess' action scenes!" The black boy placed a pile of food on the coffee table in the living room, couldn't wait to turn on the home theater, and then I used my mobile phone to log into my personal Netflix account.

"Resident Evil, $5, pay." The black boy muttered while operating.

"What's so urgent? No matter how urgent it is, it's my wife." The white boy named Brooke and several other roommates sat down one after another, opening the outer packaging of the fast food.

"Close the curtains and turn off the lights!" Brooke shouted while chewing on the chicken legs.

Although they often watch horror movies to relieve their boredom, there are not many movies that can really scare them.

But even so, the lights still have to be turned off. After all, horror movies will have no atmosphere if they don’t turn off the lights.

Everyone sat down, each took fried chicken and French fries to eat, and the movie started playing.

In the darkness, the first thing that appeared was the Netflix logo.

Then the words "Resident Evil" replaced it, and then "Director Luo Quan".

After the main producers appeared, the content of the movie officially began.

Countless bright red DNA intertwined into a bizarre scene, and a low and magnetic narration began:

“Umbrella Corporation is one of the largest companies in the United States, with more than 80 percent of households using their products, and their political and business influence is pervasive.

On the surface, it is the world's top supplier of computer technology, pharmaceuticals and medical care, but even most of the company's employees don't know that most of its huge profits come from military technology..."

The narration ends, and a white square appears in the center of the screen. As the camera gradually zooms in, the square occupies the entire screen.

Two robotic arms are operating in a glass cabinet, and there are three types of medicines: blue, green, and red.

A man in a biohazard suit took out three medicines and syringes one by one and put them into a special box.

However, when he was loading the last blue potion, he accidentally dropped it on the ground.

The man stared at the broken potion bottle for a few seconds, not daring to stay any longer, and immediately left the laboratory.

The blue potion was already flowing on the ground. As the camera gradually moved up, a ventilation duct appeared in the field of view, implying that it had circulated through this pipe to the entire institute.

At this time, the employees in the institute were working as usual.

A man dressed in black collided with an employee, knocking his cup of coffee all over him.

The man spread his hands, looked at the figure who had no intention of turning around, and said helplessly: "Thank you...it's really unlucky."

"Some people are just so rude," a female employee said comfortingly.

"Yeah." The male employee laughed.

Then the two walked into the elevator.

At this time, the experimental dog in the cage suddenly raised his head and looked at the ventilation duct.

After a while, the alarm sounded, and everyone in the laboratory raised their heads in confusion. Some people said, "It's okay, it's just a fire drill."

However, the next second, the fire sprinklers really sprayed out water, and everyone screamed to protect computer files.

Until this moment, no one has realized that the crisis has arrived!

The employees in the elevator also encountered a situation. The elevator, which was running stably, suddenly stopped.

The interior of the elevator fell into darkness and panic. Everyone tried to contact the outside world, but found that it was of no avail.

What's even more desperate is that people discovered that the elevator was falling rapidly.

At the same time, there was a commotion outside the elevator.

All passages in the laboratory were closed, and water from fire sprinklers had flooded half of the room.

People tried various methods to break out of the door, but just when they were about to succeed, a large amount of poison gas was released, and all the employees fell to the ground in pain and wailing.

Return to the elevator.

Just before the elevator fell to the ground, it finally stopped. The surviving employees wanted to escape from this dangerous situation, so they opened the elevator door a small crack.

A black female employee from the body search volunteered and stretched half of her body out of the gap.

But at this moment, the elevator that had stopped started again.

The female employee shouted in horror and pulled her in, but the elevator began to fall rapidly again.

Before the female employee's neck was about to be crushed, the elevator stopped again.

The female employee gasped tremblingly and struggled desperately to get back into the elevator.

However, the next second, the elevator started again.

It's like having a child operating the elevator, playfully making it go up and down.

However, for female employees, this is undoubtedly a huge torture and cruelty.

However, the torture did not last long. The elevator had no intention of stopping as it rose. Amidst the shrill screams, the female employee's eyes coincided with the upper edge of the elevator.

After a crisp sound, the screen turned, and an eye with a black pupil on the screen suddenly opened.

Alice woke up from the bathtub, with only a bath towel covering her smooth and white body.

Getting up from the bathtub, Alice tried hard to remember, but there was no memory in her mind, and she even forgot who she was.

Put on the bathrobe and go to the bedroom.

Alice saw the red dress lying on the bed.

When you come to the table, there is a piece of paper written on it: Tonight your dream will come true.

Alice frowned slightly, still not recalling anything.

Alice was shocked when she opened the drawer of the cabinet and found that it was filled with guns.

Is she an agent? Alice thought in her mind.

When she walked to the living room, she had already put on the red suspender skirt and a pair of leather boots she found in the closet.

On the cabinet in the living room, she once again saw something about herself.

It was a photo of her and a man, and she was still wearing a wedding dress.

At this time, something strange came from the entrance.

Alice turned and looked: "Is anyone there?"

No one answered, only her echo echoed in the room, and the quiet night added a strange color to the atmosphere.

She opened the door and walked outside, finding herself in a forest.

The howling cold wind came towards her face, Alice hugged her thin shoulders and her body trembled slightly.

Suddenly, a large number of far-reaching birds flew into the sky in panic. Before she could realize what was going on, she was violently pulled into the house.

The person who grabbed Alice was a man. Before she could say anything, a large group of police officers wearing STARS system broke in through the window, pressed her to the ground and handcuffed her.

The man shouted loudly that I am a policeman, but the STARS members ignored him.

Vice-captain James walked up to Alice who was squatting in the corner and pulled her up:

"Alice, report the situation!"

"Do you know me?" Alice was delighted. This person could actually call out her name. He must know her!

"What are you talking about?" James frowned and glanced at Captain Wesker in confusion.

"Mangguan's self-protection mechanism has been activated, and she may still be suffering from the side effects." Wesker said, then turned to the team members and asked: "Have you found out the identity of this policeman?"

The team member replied: "His name is Matthew Anderson on his police ID, but there is no file in the police station."

Matt explained loudly: "I just transferred here, maybe the police station hasn't been built yet!"

"Unknown, let's just shoot him." The black deputy captain took off his mask and put a gun to Matt's head.

"Forget it, take him down with us." Wesker took off his mask and put on his own special sunglasses.

The rest of the team members also took off their masks, and Jill and Chris appeared one by one.

Alice looked at these faces, and some pictures emerged in her mind.

It seemed that they really knew each other.

"Alice, you have lost your memory now. Just follow me on this mission for the time being." Jill stepped forward, with a cold expression on her face, but her concerned words made Alice feel a bit warm.

"You can just follow me," Chris stepped forward, a sense of security coming to his handsome and resolute face.

Gil chuckled: "Alice's fighting skills are better than yours."

Chris shrugged noncommittally.

"Prepare to enter the hive." Captain Wesker's voice sounded like a subwoofer, and the members of the STARS team immediately cheered up.

The secret door of the mansion was opened by the team members, and the door of the Hive Research Institute was opened in front of everyone...
