Chapter 317 TV Series Rehearsal (1/2)

"Open!"

squeak——

With a harsh door push, the heavy wooden door in front of them was opened, and various mixed smells suddenly penetrated the nostrils of the Avengers who entered in front of the door.

"Cough cough cough cough..."

"Quick, Wagner, help me, I can't breathe!"

Amidst the violent coughing, Wade let out a cry of pain. Hearing this, Night Walker quickly reached out and pinched his nose.

"Phew, I'm saved..."

With his nose blocked by Night Walker, Wade let out a long exhale and said in a muffled voice: "Sorry, I haven't been here for a while."

Frowning, he scanned the dark room in front of him. With his superhuman senses, Colin could clearly distinguish the smell of rat urine, the damp musty smell, and the lingering dust mixed in these smells. odor.

"Hoo~"

Unable to help but raise his hand to cover his nose, Colin took a breath, and the breeze swept away the smell in the room instantly.

"How did you do this?!"

Feeling the brand new room in front of him, Wade exclaimed like a screaming chicken.

If he hadn't already lost his body, he would have covered his face with a shouting expression.

While screaming, Wade also quietly motioned to Nightcrawler to move closer to Colin, looking around him at 360 degrees with wide eyes.

"Just a little trick."

To be honest, if he hadn't known Wade's true identity through [Time Shards], Colin would have been deceived by his appearance.

Even if he knew the other party's identity clearly, looking at Wade's crazy look in front of him, he couldn't help but wonder whether Apocalypse turned into Wade, or whether Wade assimilated to Apocalypse.

"I also want to have skills like yours, such as using my tongue...and..."

After revealing a series of wishes that were obviously unable to pass the trial, Wade was reminded by Nightcrawler that he remembered his purpose this time.

"Ahem, okay, let us go in."

Nightcrawler held Wade's chattering head and led everyone into the room deep in the castle.

This is a warehouse that is obviously used to store items. It is filled with various items. However, because no one has sorted them out for a long time, the items placed in the house seem a bit messy. On some cabinets, Colin clearly saw unique sunglasses, which should be the items of Cyclops in the X-Men. In addition, yellow and black masks and Magneto's helmet were randomly placed in the room.

"Let me think about it, it should have been placed in this place..."

Dongzui directed Nightcrawler to rummage through the messy room for a while. Finally, in a pile full of miscellaneous items, Nightcrawler found a tattered belt and a scarred machine. arm.

"I found it, I knew it was here."

Looking at the belt that was on the verge of being scrapped, Wade nodded with satisfaction and motioned to Nightcrawler to hand it over to the Avengers.

"So, this is the item you said would help, a broken belt?"

Reaching out to take the belt handed over by Nightwalker, Tony looked down at the large number of exposed circuits. The belt, which had obviously suffered a heavy blow, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked.

"Although it is a broken belt, this does not affect its value. This is a special space transmission device with the ability to travel through time and space left by the cable."

Cable is a mutant that Wade said once joined him in resisting Apocalypse's rule.

"Space teleportation device?"

After hearing Wade's description, Tony looked down at the belt in his hand again.

"Friday, scan the belt."

This time he did see a problem. Although the belt was seriously damaged, some of the modification details clearly showed some technological levels that were far ahead of this era.

"Okay, sir."

As Tony finished speaking, the artificial intelligence in the nanosuit quickly scanned the belt carefully.

"interesting?"

On the other side, Banner pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and moved closer to the belt in Tony's hand.

Although most people only remember the existence of Hulk, in fact, even if Hulk's violent power is ignored, Banner himself is also a very good scientific researcher. He obviously saw something from his belt.

"The level of technology here is very high, especially the core devices. I have never seen such a complex integrated chip design. Many of the technologies above are beyond my professional scope."

“Not only the design, but also the materials used to make this belt are not available in this era.”

On the other side, after analyzing the belt data on Friday, Tony immediately raised his eyebrows and said.

"Part of the material of the belt cannot be analyzed."

As he spoke, Tony unconsciously stretched out his palm and gently pressed the button on his belt.

Buzz——

The next second, the damaged belt vibrated violently, and at the same time an inexplicable force emerged as he stood up.

"careful!"

Looking at the belt that was suddenly activated in Tony's hand, Wade in Nightcrawler's arms couldn't help but show a surprised expression, and then reminded the Avengers as if he had thought of something.

"The power transmitted by the belt is not stable. It cannot selectively adjust the moving location and will even selectively move some parts of the body. So if you don't want to lose part of your body, try not to activate it casually. , don’t ask me how I know.”

Wade's reminder made the remaining Avengers feel threatened. Captain America held up his shield and motioned for Tony to throw away his belt.

"This may be our only hope of going back."

However, in the face of possible dangers, Tony's attitude was extremely determined.

And as everyone watched nervously, the belt that was still buzzing suddenly stopped moving as if it had lost all power.

Puff puff!

Immediately afterwards, a plume of black smoke accompanied by a small firelight emerged from Tony's hand.

"It looked like it was completely broken."

Looking at the belt with black smoke in Tony's hand, Wade's originally tense expression relaxed, and then he said with regret.

Obviously, Tony's previous method of activating the belt exhausted the last power inside the device, causing it to completely lose power.

"uncertain."

Just when everyone didn't know how to face all this, the dark Doctor Strange, who had been silent in the room, spoke.

"When the belt was activated just now, I felt some remaining dimensional power. If it can be activated again, I may be able to find a way to leave this world through the dimensional power in it."

On the forehead of Dr. Dark Strange, an eye formed by magic is shining with dazzling light.

Through the power of Emperor Weishan, he elevated himself from the material world to a higher dimension and observed the dimensional fluctuations caused by the previous activation of the belt.

"If it's just a simple repair, I should be able to do it."

Hearing the words of Dr. Dark Strange, the Avengers' depressed mood could not help but cheer up a little, and Tony said with a firm expression.

"Perhaps I can be of some help."

Banner also spoke and expressed his thoughts.

…

In the mutant world, the familiar green light enveloped Colin's consciousness, pulling him downwards.

However, the process of falling this time seemed to be particularly long. Countless scenes related to mutants flashed through his mind. Among them were scenes of Apocalypse and the mutant resistance fighting, but more of them were scenes of mutants falling into madness. , they kept wailing, and became a member of the demented people under the influence of the crazy factor. Colin even vaguely saw some familiar figures among these mutants.

Finally, in these flashing images, Colin's consciousness was embraced by countless green lights and entered another dimension.

"There are still 65 days left until the ship sinks!"

Perhaps because of the relationship between different dimensions, the time flow rate between the mutant world and the real world is greater than that of the counter-world.

Inside the Sanctuary, the Avengers are repairing Cable's broken belt so that the Dark Doctor Strange can relocate the dimensional passage.

In the real world, CBS Radio’s discussion on TV series production has also come to fruition.

As Colin expected, CBS Radio obviously could not accept the fact that it was compared with "The Sweet Talker" produced by BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation).

Affected by the Great Depression, there was generally strong sentiment toward Britain in the United States.

Especially through newspaper propaganda in recent years, many people blamed the Great Depression on Britain's trade war at that time, which caused an unprecedented rise in anti-British sentiment in the United States.

The radio station also considered this impact and made the decision to produce the TV series.

CBS may not be as populist as the public, but it is equally clear about the flow of public opinion. Americans do not want to see news in newspapers that their station lost to the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation).

Due to equipment limitations, TV series produced by CBS can only be broadcast through live broadcasts.

This kind of broadcast format will undoubtedly greatly test the performance of the actors when the TV series is broadcast.

Therefore, in order to ensure that there will be no problems during the live broadcast that day, CBS has arranged for the actors of the TV series to rehearse early.

CBS radio station, in a temporary TV studio.

The actors in charge of the live broadcast of the TV series are actively rehearsing. Due to the live broadcast, the camera cannot be switched at will.

Therefore, the entire live broadcast of the TV series can actually only be shot through a bulky TV camera, which also results in the live broadcast of the TV series being limited to a single scene.

Regarding this issue, the original BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) set the background of the TV series in an outdoor cafe. Since CBS has vowed to produce more films than BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), it naturally needs to think more about this set.

In order to be able to produce a more sophisticated TV series than the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation)'s original "Smooth Talker", CBS spent a lot of effort on the script of the TV series, and after lengthy discussions, the current script was finally written.

This TV series named "One Day in New York" has a total duration of forty minutes, which is ten minutes longer than the original BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) "Smooth Talker".

At the same time, the background of the story has also been moved to a family, mainly telling the morning time of a family living in New York.

Although the setting is ordinary, the entire production process of the TV series consumes a lot of manpower within CBS. After all, CBS has no experience in TV series in the past, and everything needs to be produced through trial and error. Even in this process, if it were not for Colin's help, CBS would have been able to complete the arrangement of the TV series.

As for why the story was set in the morning of ordinary people, this was a decision made by CBS only after Colin's suggestion.

According to Colin, TV dramas broadcast in live broadcast format have natural limitations. Especially under the premise of fixed camera seats, the broadcast of TV dramas cannot be as convenient as movies.

In this case, just choose a simple plot. Anyway, no one has watched the TV series before, so it is entirely up to them to decide how to film it.

To this end, Colin also specifically sponsored the TV series produced by CBS to ensure that the content of the TV series was as he wished.

That's right, the TV show "One Day in New York" is sponsored.

Although on the surface the story of the TV series describes an ordinary morning in an ordinary family living in New York, in fact the set of "One Day in New York" is full of 'Superman' elements, whether it is the newspaper that the father reads at home, the mother's The dinner plate is still a child's Superman doll, Superman Lego, and even the radio drama "Adventures of Superman" was heard on the radio.

It can be said that the entire TV series is actually a promotion for Superman and is also Superman's first appearance in the TV series.

Although there is no way for Superman to appear in the TV series in person, Colin used this method to integrate Superman into the CBS TV series live broadcast.

Under normal circumstances, CBS Radio would certainly not agree with Colin's approach, but after the sponsorship, everything became logical.

In particular, considering that the platform of the TV series is also a TV set produced by Colin Factory, CBS naturally showed a very cooperative attitude.

Inside the TV studio.

"Where's today's Courier World?"

"Here it is."

"Dad, I want to watch the "Superman" serial..."

"Wait a moment."

Passerby A: "Look at the sky!"

Passerby B: "Is that a bird?"

Passerby C: "Is that a plane?"

Passerby: "That's - Superman!"

"One Day in New York" invited professional actors from Hollywood. Although there are still some differences between live broadcast of TV series and filming of movies, after a period of rehearsal, the actors still performed very well and met the needs of CBS. picture.

At the same time, at the rehearsal site, Colin also showed a rare serious attitude.

He wanted to make sure that all the details related to Superman could be shown on the day of the official live broadcast. Our website:
