In order to show movies, the engineering department selected a slope in Bairen City in the past few weeks to dig out layers of steps, pave them with bricks and stones, and install wooden benches. [No pop-up novel website] **-** It can accommodate about 500 people. If it is more crowded, it can accommodate 500 people. The screen is equipped with a 16-meter projector. In order to facilitate the installation and storage of the screen, a fixed screen stand was made. Considering the need for long-term movie screening, a specially built movie screening room was wired. The sound source is a mobile speaker that comes with the movie projector, which is very easy to install and retract.
Mei Wan specially built a VIP seat directly opposite the screen, with overhanging eaves on it. In order to allow the cinema to be used for other purposes, a semicircular stage was built under the screen frame, which can be used for meetings and performances when movies are not being shown.
Two hours before the movie started, countless people gathered in front of and behind the screen. Many people came directly from the canteen with their lunch boxes. The electric lights were not bright enough, so a few gas lamps were temporarily hung up to illuminate everything. Families were in pairs, and those with children were dragging their children with them. The cafeteria set up a stall next to the cinema, providing free juice and betel nuts. This was the only food available for entertainment here. It looks like a bustling and harmonious society.
When the music started playing in this newly built open-air cinema, the noisy people suddenly disappeared, and everyone waited in silence. The title appeared on the screen:
"The Matrix".
Everyone was stunned, this was considered a thorn or entertainment. But even so, everyone was still watching attentively. When Keanu Reeves was playing coo11 on the screen, many "employees" living in Bairen City were also attracted by the shocking sound effects here and gathered quietly. When they discovered that a huge "movie" was being performed here, "When the time came, no one was willing to move their feet anymore. They hurried back and called their wives and children to watch together.
As the news spread that the "chiefs" were watching an unprecedented "movie", employees and family members living in Bairen Commune came over one after another. They didn't dare to go inside and sit on the steps to watch, but the cinema was open and they could see clearly even from the outside.
Luo Duo quietly ran to the VIP table. In addition to Zishan, there were also Ma Qianxu and some other executive committee members. Wen Desi and other executive committee members were not present. According to the usual practice of protecting dignitaries, Xiao Zishan, Ma Qianxu A group of people watched the first half, and then it was Wen Desi and others' turn to watch the second half. Not all present at the same time.
"Commissioner Ma, there are quite a few workers and family members around the cinema. Should we mobilize more militiamen to guard the place?"
Because Luo Duo was very interested in watching movies, he volunteered to be the guard duty officer of Bairen City today.
Ma Qianzhu frowned: "No need. They are just here to watch movies. Don't be so nervous."
"I'm afraid of what might happen"
"It doesn't matter, they are employees. They should all be trustworthy people."
"Okay." Luo Duo was heading out to Zishan when he stopped him: "There is no need to mobilize the militia. Your militiamen on duty should prepare more tear gas."
"Okay, let's do it." Luo Duo responded in a quick and cheerful tone that leaders like most. Seeing that Ma Qianzhu had no objection. Just walked out.
On the screen, Carrie-Anne Moss was dancing in the air and said: "You are still so wary of these indigenous people who are your own people. How will the localization process be carried out in the future?"
"Of all the people who have worked for us the longest, they have only been serving us for three months. There are not many sources of information to check their details here like in modern society. We have to be on guard."
Ma Qianzhu laughed out loud: "You are taking precautions, using pepper tear gas? It's worse."
"Better than nothing." Xiao Zishan chuckled.
The indigenous people who came to see the "shadow show" didn't think so much. The real moving images and scenery that appeared on the white cloth made them both surprised and curious: a Western man in long black clothes turned his body beautifully in the air, many huge and weird octopuses were flying in the air, and the tall houses were as dense as in the mountains. The woods, and the flying car covered in blue flames... all of them have never been seen before, but they all look like real ones. All this made Ma Peng fascinated.
Then comes the demon world of fear. The giant towers were dotted with red lanterns, and each lantern contained a drowned person. Monsters walked among the giant towers, waving their long tentacles under the black night sky. Ma Peng was so frightened that this must be Shura Hell.
Although the effect is extremely shocking, the ancients' understanding was not bad. They knew that this was just an effect of light and shadow, not real.
Although some people wanted to go behind the screen to see what kind of team was performing such a realistic "movie" from time to time, no one did anything crazy.
"The natives seem to be very excited about watching movies." Wu De knew that many members of the commune went to the cinema to watch the movie. He was afraid of any problems, so he came to inspect and saw that all of them had their mouths wide open and were fascinated by the movie. He looked a little surprised.
"Do they understand what this is about?" Luo Duo was a little confused.
"Don't talk about them, I don't even understand the Matrix." Wu De said, "But these indigenous people are just watching the fun."
"
They can’t even understand Mandarin. After all, this is Li Yapeng’s Mandarin.
Luo Duo's unintentional words aroused Wu De's thoughts. Looking at this, the movie is very attractive to the locals. If we use movies as a medium to teach Mandarin, wouldn’t we kill two birds with one stone? At present, the commune is led by Zhang Xingjiao, who holds night classes every night and teaches Mandarin, but with little success. Most local workers realize that if they want to get along well here in "Chang", they must learn the language of "Chang". However, the Lingao dialect of the Ming Dynasty, After all, Hokkien and Cantonese are very different from Mandarin in the 21st century. Short words and sentences are okay, but it is difficult to communicate without barriers.
This is a good idea, Wu De thought about it, what kind of movies should they watch?
Just as I was thinking about it, Neo in the movie was saying his classic lines:
…
I can feel it. I know you're afraid, you're afraid of us; you're afraid of change
I don't know the future.
I'm not calling to tell you it's over.
But I am telling you that it has just opened.
…
After the lines were said, the movie was also played. Because they knew there was still time, most people stretched themselves and waited for the next movie. At this moment, Ding Ding was seen quickly stepping onto the podium under the screen. He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with oily hair and pink face, and a cheerful look on his face, as if he was going to attend someone's wedding.
"On this joyful New Year's Eve, the publicity team of the Executive Committee and all the staff of Lingao Times wish you and your family happiness, all the best, and a happy Spring Festival." He took the microphone and said loudly:
"now,"
"The Baitu Village Committee and the construction aid agency sent a congratulatory message: The Baitu villagers are determined to rebuild their homes with our own hands. We are living a good life, with fish and rice, and our relatives' time-traveling troops have even built new houses for us."
Hearing Ding Ding's emotional congratulatory message read aloud, Xiao Zishan burst into laughter: This time and space is magical enough.
"The officers and soldiers of the Navy's Bopu Marine Company guarding Bopu ask the people of the motherland to rest assured that we will watch the sea border with a hundredfold vigilance and protect the crossing regime at all times."
"I am sending a congratulatory message from the overseas dispatch station to wish all the people across the country a happy holiday." Then four men with coded faces appeared on the screen, holding a banner with a few large characters written with a calligraphy pen on it: "Spring Festival" good".
"The soldiers at the duty post of the Navy's Fengcheng ship sent New Year greetings to all the time-travelers over the phone. I wish everyone a happy holiday and all the best!"
"The Yanchang Village Committee sent a congratulatory letter in the new year, wishing everyone good health and all the best. The villagers of Yanchang Village never forget the well diggers when drinking water, and unswervingly follow the general route of crossing, from victory to victory!"
Every time one of them is read, the crowd will applaud enthusiastically, stamp their feet and roar.
The surrounding indigenous people were confused as to what the man on the stage was talking about, which made the elders go crazy.
The last congratulatory letter came from the Hainan Women's Cooperative. In addition to wishing everyone a happy holiday, there was also news that a large number of betel nuts were available for purchase. This was Li Mei's attempt to independently find sources of supply.
Ma Qianzhu sighed: "To be honest, it still feels a bit frivolous."
"Huh?" Xiao Zishan didn't react for a while.
"What I expect is that on New Year's Eve of a certain year, what I will hear is a real congratulatory message from across the ocean, from the Americas, from Malacca, from Africa, from Japan... from our colonies, overseas bases, trading posts and fleets." Ma. Qianzhu suddenly became emotional as he spoke, and even choked up a little.
"There will be a day!" Xiao Zishan was infected by his ambition and said confidently.
Just as he was talking, a strange "hissing" sound suddenly sounded outside. Looking up, he saw a green flame running straight into the night sky, and then another red one. In an instant, a streak of light flashed across the starry night. Following the trajectory of the rocket, the crowds inside and outside the cinema were attracted by this unexpected program and exclaimed "Ah, ah" one after another.
The rocket flew higher and higher, exploding instantly in the night.
Like a huge thunder shaking the sky, bright red and bright flames burst out in all directions, reflecting each other. This is a time-traveling fireworks festival that people in this time and space have never seen before. People on the ground couldn't help but cheer and applaud.
Not only the entire Bairen City, but the residents of the county and Bopu also saw this unprecedented spectacular scene on the high ground. Many residents who had already gone to bed ran out of their houses to look at this rare diorama.
Lin Shenhe and his colleagues in the artillery team behind him did not cheer or applaud, but they were equally excited. The rocket finally proved to be usable.
"How high is the effective shot?" Lin Shenhe asked
"The highest one is 55o meters."
"Is it practical?"
"Okay, but follow the instructions and shoot 2500 meters high."
The real purpose of the gorgeous fireworks display was a test of the rocket that the artillery team had just prototyped. Of course, in order to match the atmosphere of New Year's Eve, some incendiary powder mixed with metal powder was added to the warhead. (To be continued.
