Giant of Light: I am the Old Ones

Chapter 186 I want to take special photos!

After receiving Qi Wen's explanation, Amanda felt more relieved.

He has been targeted by the higher-ups of the college. If he is also targeted by the church, it will be difficult to deal with it.

Perhaps, this comic simply suited the taste of the bishop at that time, and as part of countless church publications every year, perhaps it was simply buried.

Qi Wen pushed the cart all the way down, and in Amanda's eyes, the elevator that looked a bit old-fashioned carried them all the way down.

"What's the purpose of a basement for a newspaper company? Is the area given to them enough to house the machinery of Time Newspaper?"

Amanda was like a curious baby. He had never seen a newspaper office with a huge basement that was not used as a warehouse.

The top of the ceiling here is a fixed steel frame, with a huge stage and artificial scenery placed in the center, as well as searchlights similar to the auxiliary lighting of combat team members.

Why does this place look like a photo studio?

If those artificial sets were replaced with green screens, this sense of déjà vu would be even more powerful.

But Amanda apparently guessed wrong. This underground place was not a studio, but a stage for a stage play.

Qi Wen looked around and saw what the staff were preparing. The boss hadn't arrived yet, so he took the time to explain the ins and outs of this stage to Amanda. Speaking of which, coming here today was related to Amanda's comics. .

This stage is a toy for the boss to entertain himself.

This boss studied classical drama in Europe in his early years, and performed in a Greek play for two years. He had to "die" with his eyes open, and watched as he was stoned to death, but there was still a soulful part, and he sang mournfully. The main character of the song performed the whole show.

During this period, if your eyes are accidentally seen by the audience, you will be complained.It’s been two years since I’ve had a role that allowed me to sing.

So the boss, who had failed in Greek dramas, went to Britain to study modern drama.

After several years of playing the role of a servant of an assassinated king, a stable boy of a revengeful prince, and a burner of the bodies of lovers who died for love, the boss realized that there was no future for him to continue acting like this.

He stopped pretending and showed off his cards, showing his qualified money-making ability as a rich man's nephew.

Because the rich man only had a daughter, this nephew was considered one of the legal heirs. After liberating his money ability, the boss got his wish and played various leading roles. He even personally advertised and invited the whole city to watch the drama in which he played the leading role for free.

Then the boss fell down on the steps because of nervousness before going on stage, so he had to have a substitute come on.

This also led to the boss thinking that he was not suitable to perform in front of the audience.

After returning to America, I opened a newspaper office and built a set of stage equipment in the basement. After being out of the shadow of performing, I could only enjoy myself secretly.

Every time more than ten people are invited to watch, this expensive stage that is comparable to major theaters will have problems inexplicably.

Over time, no matter how much the boss loved drama, he lost interest.

Until recently, the appearance of Amanda comics gave him some new ideas.

While Amanda was listening, she heard footsteps coming from behind. A man with a strong body and a good figure came down from the elevator in a well-fitted suit. After seeing Qi Wen, he laughed and said:
"My friend, there is no need to publicize my story. It is a sad thing for me all my life. By the way, I saw this big guy. It seems that the treasure I want has arrived, and you will receive my reward in your account. . Now, let’s see how this machine works. Oh, there is also a young man here, who are you? "

"Amanda."

Amanda was concise and to the point. He rarely said his full name anymore because it felt inexplicably embarrassing to say it.

After hearing this, the visitor's eyes widened, and a dramatic expression began to twist on his face. At that moment, he tried to express various emotions, but in his eyes, he just felt that this person was probably not facially paralyzed.If this level of facial expression control is all you have, then give up being a comedian as soon as possible.

It seems that there is a reason why this boss has studied drama for so many years and has not yet become the protagonist.

"Oh, Mr. Amanda! Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Dicko Hugo, the owner of this newspaper. I really didn't expect that the comic author of "Ultraman Tega" was actually a teenager. My child, please forgive my rashness, sir, I really like your work."

Dicko raised his hands and reveled in the performance that he felt was very good but was actually very poor. He sang some unpleasant lines from a dramatic aria, which made Amanda want to cover her ears.

He knew why this guy would have accidents on stage every time there was a large audience.

God doesn’t want this guy to come on stage and harm the audience!

He looked at the staff around him with some sympathy. Alas, his ability was so good that he could make people endure such mental torture and work with this guy.

Dicko quickly returned to normal. Even when he didn't speak, he was still a handsome young man.

He watched Qi Wen unpack the shipped goods. Inside was a huge movable bracket carrying a black box device with lenses.

Amanda subconsciously said: "Camera?"

"Camera?" Qi Wen was a little surprised by this title. "The name is quite good. Let's call it a camera. This thing was developed by people from the research department on the basis of film cameras. It is a machine used to shoot continuous images. But it requires It was a smaller machine, so this big prototype was quickly scrapped and I borrowed it.”

Dictor looked at the silly, black machine with admiration in his eyes, caressed the rough metal shell, and said:
"Now that you already know my story, you can probably understand why I asked Qi Wen to borrow this machine. I hope that more audiences can see my performance, so I can only find a way to film my performance with this thing Come down and show it to people. Otherwise, my performance cannot be known to the world, which is a loss for the entire theater world!"

Dicko quickly asked the staff to prepare, jumped on the stage, changed into costumes, put on a mask, and appeared under the lights.

The machine starts to run and makes noise, there is no way, the old-fashioned principle of the machine is like this.

Then, at the moment Didot threw down his mask, the machine jammed.

The film of that frame broke directly on the winch for some unknown reason, and recording could not continue.

Qi Wen connected the film, but every time Dikto took off the mask, the frame of the face would be broken.

They tried several times, with the same result.

The lost Dikto knelt down and cried bitterly. Only the expression of sadness and pain at this moment can be called a crying scene with excellent acting skills.

Qi Wen was a little helpless and said: "Forget it, Dicko, let's change to plan B. You can't show your face. Amanda happens to be here too. Maybe he can have some suggestions."

"Plan B, does it have anything to do with me?"

Amanda asked, and soon the answer came from the stage.

Several models of city buildings were pushed up by the staff, and then an extremely crude Golzan monster leather case was helped in.

Damn it, is this going to be a special shoot? !However, this monster leather case is too ugly!

Also, at least leave a peep hole in the monster leather case!
