915. Meet love at the corner(1/2)
"By the way, Miss Dorothy, I heard that you are planning to attend the Shadow Festival in a few days, right?"
The city lord's wife, who didn't know that her identity had been seen through by the otaku witch, suddenly brought the topic to this.
"Well, it's true. I think this is a good publicity opportunity, and we happened to have shot a good film before, so we sent it here to see if it can have some traffic-drawing effect."
Dorothy nodded, there was nothing to hide.
This was her main purpose of coming to Night City. Even though she now had a new mission goal, she was still prepared to wait until the Shadow Festival was over before leaving Night City.
Anyway, mobilization and preparation for war also requires preparation time, but this is just enough time for her to complete the process.
As for the previously shot sample film, it has been edited by Audrey and Wen Wen and has been handed over to the two ladies for review.
In this regard, the two ladies behaved quite calmly. After all, they are both well-informed people. They have never seen any big scenes. Regarding the works of Otaku Witch and others, they only gave a "good"
, the filming is quite real” is one comment.
As for being shocking or anything like that, that really doesn’t exist at all. After all, from the perspective of plot and artistry, "Fantasy Country" is actually just like that.
In this regard, Audrey was a little disappointed. After all, this was the first time the little fox had appeared in a film about Shadow. She still hoped to be recognized by her mothers, but Dorothy was not surprised by such comments.
.
After all, when a group of outsiders form a team for the first time, the first work they shoot will easily become a hit. The chance of becoming a blockbuster is really very small. It is actually quite rare to get a good compliment from professionals like the two wives.
.
Besides, the film Wives may not have much hope of winning a major award, but it still has a lot of hope for some minor awards.
Although Dorothy also heard that these were the words of the ladies to comfort Audrey, she took it seriously for the time being and had a little expectation in her heart.
There is no way, after all, the film is not very consistent with the main theme of the witches.
Witches actually prefer films about personal heroism. After all, the history of witches was created by the Three Kings. This kind of plot in which a great man descends from the sky and single-handedly leads the whole clan to take off is naturally more popular among witches.
After all, everyone wants to be a character like the Three Kings. Even if they can't do it in reality, it is still good to bring the protagonists into the shadow and experience the happiness of the protagonist.
In the "Fantasy Country" filmed by Dorothy and the others, the main character Tsukimi Kuro was eventually wiped out by the sword master in the background. Although the main character died, her followers together overthrew the terrifying big monster Tamamo Mae.
, but this is actually a victory of faith and collective.
It is important to have great men descended from the sky, but the power of those little people who are like sand and mud gathered together is also infinite.
But how can I put it, this kind of idea that praises collectivism is still quite niche in the cultural works of witches. Whether it will be loved by the audience, no one can say for sure, even if it is like the two wives
Professionals are not sure either and can only wait and see how the audience responds.
However, due to the recent Phantom Thieves live broadcast incident, Dorothy's traffic has become a bit high, and almost no one in the world knows her. The two wives expressed that with this huge traffic bonus, their works have a higher probability of winning awards.
It actually increased a lot, which actually made the otaku witch a little speechless.
Tsk tsk tsk, as expected, if there is traffic in the Magic Network era, you can do whatever you want.
"Is that so? Then I will look forward to your work. I am also one of the judges at the Magic Shadow Festival this time. I will definitely help you promote it."
Evelin, the wife of the city lord, said with a smile.
"Thank you very much, Madam."
Dorothy was a little surprised by this.
Let’s just say it first, it’s not that she wanted to go through the back door, it was the back door that hit her on its own. Anyway, it’s not a loss.
However, while she was secretly rejoicing, the city lord's wife spoke again.
"By the way, this must be your first time attending the Shadow Festival. Although I heard that Dorothy you are quite familiar with the two little girls from Aphrodite's family, but those two little girls are not exactly considered to be in the industry.
People, I guess they won’t be very familiar with the process by then.”
"Well, Cassandra, you haven't had much business lately, right? Just spend more time with Dorothy and the others."
The Veela Witch said this with a smile.
At this, the werewolf eldest lady was stunned.
Hey, mother, my schedule is actually quite full recently, and I still have a lot of advertising collaborations to shoot.
Cassandra's head was full of questions, and she wanted to refute it like this.
However, before she could open her mouth, she saw the kind smile on her mother's face and the slightly narrowed eyes that plainly said "you must be very leisurely". What else could she say?
"Yes, I've been very busy recently. Miss, please let me be your guide."
The werewolf witch could only raise her head and chest out, and said so enthusiastically.
However, she actually didn't resist this. After all, she originally needed to go to the Shadow Festival, and now she just went from going alone to going with a group of people, so it didn't matter.
Besides, she is actually very curious about this legendary eldest lady, and she really likes the cultural customs of Japan Island that are different from the witch world.
"Hmm, then you young people should go and have a good time together. It's boring to be with us old guys all the time."
Seeing her daughter agreeing so sensibly, the city lord's wife immediately happily began to prepare to see off the guests.
Dorothy: "......"
No, don’t you want to ask my opinion?
The otaku witch was also a little speechless for this old friend.
She really didn't know if she was thinking too much. She always felt that Miss Yu Ni was trying to send her daughter to me?
This shouldn't be narcissism on my part.
No, madam, I regard you as a sister, but you want to be my mother-in-law?
Hmm, I hope this is really just my misunderstanding.
The otaku witch had no choice but to think this way.
However, to be honest, what the wife of the city lord said is true. Madeline is not doing her job properly, and Audrey is afraid of being autistic. Although the two sisters are locals of Night City, they have never participated in the Shadow Festival or anything like that.
This really requires a guide.
Now someone is giving away a high-level guide for free, and she is also quite an eye-catching beauty. This is really a good thing that people cannot refuse.
At that moment, she no longer resisted, so she and Alice stood up to say goodbye, preparing to leave with Cassandra.
"Let me go too. Night City is actually not peaceful recently, and I am considered an insider in the industry."
At this time, Hati took the initiative to stand up and said the same thing.
Dorothy naturally had no objections to this. This was the bodyguard of a peak witch, so she felt very safe.
Of course, she also noticed that Hati's target had always been on Alice beside her. She knew that the werewolf elder was actually reluctant to let go of his daughter and wanted to spend more time with her. To this, she had no reason to object.
After all, Dorothy could feel that Alice was also a little happy when she heard her father took the initiative to accompany her.
And as the four people left, there were only three people left in the room.
"Evelin, what do you mean?"
Skull and Yae Murasaki asked almost at the same time.
The Lord of the City was a little dissatisfied with how her partner had arranged her daughter. Although she admired Dorothy, she didn't want to recruit a son-in-law.
She personally doesn't like arranged marriages, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen to be with Evelin, a well-known socialite, despite the pressure from her clan.
Yae Purple also narrowed her eyes. Although Evelin was indeed her best friend, but because of this, this best friend's actions just now crossed the line.
"What you two said is that I can't have any bad intentions. I just have a good impression of Dorothy and want my daughter to get closer to her. Is there anything wrong with that?"
The Veela Witch said very innocently.
As a top socialite who was once famous throughout the city, she naturally has a pair of observant eyes. She knows very well what kind of people are worth making friends with and what kind of people should be kept away from.
In her opinion, this eldest lady is really a potential stock, and she is a good child. If her daughter can become her friend, it will be a good thing. If she can go further, it will be even happier.
She really didn't have any bad intentions, it was just a mother's consideration for her daughter's future.
Besides, she didn't say she wanted to force it. All she could do was push it. As for how it will develop in the future, that is a matter for young people.
After hearing his partner's words, the city lord fell silent and did not object too much.
After all, she knew her partner's eyesight, and she was far inferior to her in terms of seeing people. Since Evelin valued this eldest lady so much, she silently raised her status several notches in her heart.
Well, it seems that she needs to pay more attention to this young lady's affairs from now on.
However, Yae Purple is not so easy to fool.
"Evelin, your little tricks can fool others but not me. But forget it, it seems that you really don't have any bad intentions. I won't pursue it this time, but I must remind you.
, the water for this child is too deep, let alone your daughter, you can’t control it yourself."
She squinted her eyes and warned with a dangerous look like a snake.
She knew that this best friend had gone to Japan Island with them to perform a mission before. Although they did not go to the island, they still saw a lot of Dorothy's extraordinary qualities.
And judging from this guy's character who never misses any opportunity to improve, she must have been eyeing Dorothy's potential.
However, this guy obviously only saw half of it. Dorothy is not a potential stock covered in precious stones. It is a private interview in the incognito world, just in the game world. The background above is too old. You, a guy who likes to steal things, can stretch your claws randomly.
Easily beaten.
"Is that so? Then we can't let it go."
