[Comprehensive British and American] Welcome to Lego City

Three days later, the Metropolis.

When Murphy got out of the car, he was like every office worker in a hurry on the street, writing and drawing with a tablet computer in his hand, and communicating with someone in the headset at the same time. The scene is the epitome of every human being struggling in the metropolis, so that it does not attract the attention of any passing travelers.

Even if what he said in his mouth was: "No, no, let Jason play the clown is the bottom line. Boo Boo, tell them not to try to bring down the entire presidential palace unless the person concerned agrees... You said that the bad cops have already agreed?! "

How come Lego City is always so efficient in this kind of thing!He had been talking with the engineering team for the Asgard network cable for more than a month!

Bubu: "The production team said that if you really don't want to go back and participate in the show, your character can also be synthesized by computer. Anyway, there are not many scenes, so you have to pay more."

Put a computer-generated character in a live-action animation movie that others think is computer-generated, let's put this doll.

Murphy knew Miss Secretary and the others' desire to appear on the screen, so after thinking about it, he said, "Forget it, let them watch the filming if the plot requires it. Let me know in advance when I film a plot related to me, and I'll think about it later. In addition, we must pay attention to the issue of influence and the age of the masses."

Boob conveyed the words of the Lego City production team: "Don't worry, sir, the shooting process has already started, and you can adjust it at any time if you think there is a problem."

A small window was projected by artificial intelligence on Murphy's sunglasses, showing the situation in Lego City's studio.

It is still in the initial stage of the project, and everyone is enthusiastic about this unfamiliar job. The shooting site is surrounded by superheroes who come to watch, and there are countless supervillains holding binoculars crowded in the corners.

Drones and helicopters in the sky are trivial. There are a few broomsticks and Arabian flying carpets floating next to the propellers. There are people riding dinosaurs on the roofs of nearby buildings. There are two or three Star Destroyers parked outside the earth's atmosphere. The aliens at night kept asking if the filming was over, who the lead actor was, and where to buy movie tickets.

——Those who didn’t know looked at this scene and thought it was the venue for the peace talks of the Fourth Space War.

Who would have thought it would be the opening ceremony of a family-friendly animated film?

Several flying superheroes hung ribbons on the ceiling of the studio. Lego Flash distributed small cakes to every visitor at the door. Hawkeye, who was divided into two pieces, quickly huddled with him and took on the task together. Difficult task.

Difficult: Refers to successfully distributing the cake to others instead of accidentally eating it yourself.

That's right, the Zhenglian members who are important actors and the parents of the starring roles are of course also there, Lego Wonder Woman heard Murphy's response to the presidential palace's appearance arrangement, and said silently with mouth: "I knew he would agree softly. "

The few remaining superheroes who did not go far nodded approvingly.

A sign protruded from the ventilation duct next to the studio. I don’t know which super villain wrote on it in huge fonts: “You are slandering the leader of the Legion of Doom! It’s definitely not a matter of soft-heartedness. deep meaning."

Lego Wonder Woman rolled her eyes, and she stepped forward to give the lead actor Dick Grayson who was standing alone in the middle of the set an encouraging hug, and said to him: "Come on! We look forward to your performance."

Lego Dick tensed up belatedly. He glanced at Batman standing on the periphery of the field with his arms folded, and a row of cameras with black holes in front of him. Face.

The director next to him waved Diana out, and asked Dick, who was wearing a shirt and jeans and playing the role of a young man who had just graduated, and Damian, who was adjusting to a wig and high heels next to him: "Have you both read your own script? Actually, no It’s pretty much the same, just act in your true colors.”

Dick, struggling to adapt to Disney's runaway princess role: "Actually, it still needs some acting skills."

Due to the particularity of Lego City, all sets, special effects, and sound effects basically do not require post-production.

There are master architects in the team who specialize in this direction. They spell out various architectural scenes quickly, safely and painlessly to perfectly fit the script. It only takes 1 minute to change, and it doesn’t cost a penny to blast—the master architect is a good helper for your work and home.

Now Dick is standing in a small virtual city that has been spelled out. The director held a loudspeaker and ignored his excuses, and said to himself, "Come on, have a laugh?"

Lego Dick subconsciously grinned.

"Perfect, that's the taste. Our legendary stories about seeking freedom, friendship and love can start from this smile: this is a peaceful and peaceful age, but in a certain corner of the universe, the shadow of disaster has quietly descended... ..."

In the real universe, the sunshine in the city today is quite warm.After the northern hemisphere has completely entered summer, the weather is getting warmer day by day, and people on the streets are wearing less and less cloth.

But this has nothing to do with most of the nine-to-five social animals and Murphy. They just replaced the three-piece suit with a thin one, and at most added a hat or a pair of sunglasses on the way.

Murphy chose sunglasses, which are more worry-free than hats, and he doesn’t have to worry about being blown away by the wind. They can also seamlessly cosplay with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., making people around him involuntarily step back three steps away, making it easier for him to watch the live broadcast while walking. Hit other passers-by.

Go through the Centennial Park in the center of the city and go south, and you will arrive at the most prosperous place in the metropolis——

The Daily Planet building, the former site of the Daily Planet, and the Wayne Technology Building, which is there for some reason, stand in front of the river bank and become a unique viewing point outside the memorial hall.

The tower of the Lex Group is further south, much higher than the Daily Planet Building and the Wayne Technology Building. It looks like a signal receiver inserted in the city pointing to the universe, and it seems arrogant enough to think that they are A giant overlooking the crowd.

The location of the Motion Picture Association of America is not worth mentioning. It is a small place that no one pays attention to on weekdays, nestled in the most corner of this prosperous area.

In the past three days, Murphy has been to the branch of the Metropolitan Film Association several times.

After the relevant documents were uploaded, the staff secretly told him that "it should be very likely to pass", and revealed that his whole family is a loyal buyer of Lego toys.

Murphy went around again today to supervise the progress of the office. After returning, he stayed in front of the famous planet sculpture in the Planet Daily for a while, took a few photos, and also fed the pigeons on the square by the way. The pre-Gotham tourist check-in behavior is similar.

A young man with the appearance of a homeless man has been wandering around the statue. After seeing Murphy, he dragged him to sell Superman's autographed photo, and he could get a [-]% discount on the matching Krypton key chain. No matter how you look at it, it is a tradition to pit tourists from other places. Routine.

Murphy declined for a long time without any results, but began to be praised as a brother in just a few minutes, fully reflecting the leading advantages of top workers in different industries in special fields.

He has been interested in various attractions in the metropolis for a long time, and this time he finally had the opportunity to shoot the version outside Lego City. He used the camera to find the angle several times but was not very satisfied. Don't buy ID photos of two supermen showing eight teeth and smiling brightly in the sun to clean up the money.

In another universe, Lego Batman on the set listened to the sales pitch and asked, "What does a Superman autograph look like?"

Murphy asked Boubo to send the autographed photo, the Daily Planet sculpture he took, and the white pigeons flying in the square, and the laughter of Lego Batman and Wonder Woman came from the opposite side.

Lego Superman took the microphone and said: "The photos of Metropolis are very beautiful. I love this city, no matter which universe it is in. But to be honest, I don't like these two ID photos very much. If you want to collect them, I can give them to Some of your photos are more realistic."

He smiled tentatively, showing his eight teeth, and next to Lego Batman muttered, "Exactly the same, Supes."

Lego Superman's expression became frustrated: "Really, it seems that sometimes I don't look good on camera... Besides, Murphy, the signature on the autograph photo is forged. This is a fraudulent act. You should go to the Consumer Product Safety Commission to complain to the seller."

Murphy put down the sunglasses that had been moved to the top of his head when taking pictures, put away the camera and prepared to leave.

He wasn't worried that he would be discovered by the Superman of the real universe. At this point, Mr. Clark Kent was still on duty, and the headset was encrypted. He himself didn't mention the keyword that would be noticed by the heroes of the metropolis.

Murphy walked away from the crowd and said, "Maybe it has nothing to do with being on camera, it's entirely a matter of photographers and ID photos. In addition, you have to know that in the eyes of most of the parties, Lego is the one that violates portrait rights regardless of their wishes. The source of evil and the right to reputation."

Unlike those in Lego City who don't admit that they can play for teenagers, Murphy is still very self-aware.

When he said this, he had already walked away, completely undetected by the vendors who had previously sold fake signed photos of Superman.

The peddler stood there again, selling the remaining photos perfunctorily for a while, then stuffed the unsold junk souvenirs into his pockets except for the one in Murphy's hand, took out the baseball cap in his jacket and put it on On the head, with its head down, it quietly blends into the crowd.

Roy Harper, AKA Arsenal, a member of the Outlaw Squad, walks into the Red Hood's safehouse in Metropolis in the early evening.

"He also went to the MPAA today." As soon as he entered the door, Roy threw his dirty jacket aside, took off his baseball cap, and said to his companions Jason and Xinghuo, "After returning, I passed by the Planet Daily, and I managed to get along with him. He made contact."

"This is different from our previous plan." Xinghuo said.

"Did he find you?" Jason asked immediately.

"No, you have to believe in my professionalism, and I was afraid of being discovered by him, so I almost didn't dare to do anything."

Roy sat down on the sofa and poured himself a glass of water, "I also earned ten dollars and sold two photos of Superman, minus the cost of one dollar, I can treat you to coffee in the evening."

However, his male teammates showed disdainful expressions, while his female teammates were indifferent and even sympathetic.

"It's dangerous," said Red Hood. "We're here to investigate, not cause trouble."

"Okay boss." Roy said quickly, "Listen, Jason, I'm still sticking to that point of view-no matter what brilliant ideas Apocalypse, Darkseid, Illuminati, or other criminals in the universe come up with. idea, this has nothing to do with LEGO and their new movie.

It's just a confusing option, and we're wasting our time running to Metropolis after Morpeth Murphy. "

Xinghuo: "Is it because you have finally ordered the latest 75978 Diagon Alley limited collector's edition?"

"No! It has nothing to do with this!"

Regardless of what everyone else thinks, Lego City filming is progressing slowly and the MPAA is scrutinizing it.

About half a week later, the official website of Lego Company released the latest promotional video of the Lego Movie, and began a small-scale warm-up activity.
