Chapter 157
Evans turned on the flashlight in his mobile phone and put it on the ground, bringing some light to the dark elevator. After finally calming down, Christine followed him and put the mobile phone on the ground.
Evans finally saw the whole picture of Christine. She was slumped on the ground, the heel of one high-heeled shoe was broken aside, and the cold sweat on her head was wet from fear or pain. The strands of hair stuck to his forehead.
"...A sprained ankle?" He hesitated for a while before asking.
Christine turned her head to look at her ankle, shrank behind the other leg, shook her head and prepared to stand up: "It's okay."
Evans frowned when she saw her like this: "You don't need to be brave in front of me, Christine, it doesn't make any sense."
"Then what's the point?" Christine didn't pretend to be nonchalant when she heard Evans' words. She was frightened by this ghost elevator, and she almost exploded at this moment.
"Chris, does it make you feel superior to expose my embarrassment?"
What is she talking about?
Evans frowned enough to kill a mosquito: "That's not what I meant. Can't you accept a little kindness, Christine? Do you have to misinterpret my meaning like this?"
"kindness?"
Christine lowered her eyes, pondering over this word over and over again. Now she can't understand Chris Evans. It was he who asked her not to meet him or talk to him, but now he came to care again with "good intentions" Myself, what is this?
Didn't he know that such a move would misunderstand her?
"You are still exactly the same as before." Christine said lightly: "I can't see a woman getting hurt in front of you."
"So, when Minka told you that she had no place to live, you gave up your house and let her live in it." Christine chuckled lightly, "Even if I was your fiancée at that time, you didn't tell her beforehand." I say hello."
"Oh, yes, you are back together now." Christine added.
Evans was silent for a while. Originally, he didn't want to reply to Christine's sarcasm anymore. After hearing this, he explained: "We are not together."
Christine raised her eyebrows, noncommittal: "If you say no, then you don't have it."
She can always stir up his anger like this, Evans' brows have not relaxed since he frowned, he held his breath in his heart, but he knew Christine's character, he said a word, angry She always has ten sentences to satirize him.
He simply kept his mouth shut and stopped talking to this vexatious woman.
Christine waited for a long time but didn't get a reply from Evans. Seeing him turning his head and staring at the elevator button as if he was about to stare at the flowers, he was disappointed and embarrassed, and even wanted to laugh. In short, the expression on his face The expression was extremely complicated and seemed a little weird.
She also clenched her mouth tightly, and just sat there rubbing her ankle gently, waiting for help to arrive.
It is difficult to feel the passage of time in the dark. They have been silent for a century, but when Christine checked the time on her phone, she realized that only 10 minutes had passed.
And her cell phone was about to die.
"...How much battery do you have on your phone?" Christine broke the deadlock.
Evans turned the phone over and looked back, "40.00%."
Christine nodded and wanted to say something, but after opening her mouth for a long time, she only returned one sentence: "Mine is only ten percent."
"Then you still turn off the flashlight." Evans said, "It shouldn't matter if it's dark?"
"It's okay." Christine turned off the flashlight of the mobile phone as he said, and fell silent again.
In the narrow space, the breathing of the two people was clearly audible, and Christine could hear Evans' steady breathing, which made her a little scared and couldn't help settling down. At this time, she remembered the conversation just now, He said with some annoyance: "Sorry, I lost control of my emotions just now..."
Evans waved his hand and couldn't help laughing: "It's been so long, I still don't know your personality?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he himself froze there.
Christine was also a little taken aback. Evans' tone just now was relaxed and familiar, and it instantly brought her back to when they were friends a few years ago. Thinking of this, she felt a sense of loss.
After all, he became a passerby.
Evans felt a little regretful. Why did he say that just now? He was obviously going to be silent to her.
"Can we...can we still be friends?" Christine's voice was barely audible.
But the elevator was so quiet that even breathing could be heard. Evans obviously heard what Christine said. He turned his head to look at Christine. Those beautiful blue eyes were full of sadness and nostalgia, but there was no expect.
She obviously felt that after that incident, it was impossible for the two of them to be friends again.
Evans did not reply to her, but the slightly tingling palm seemed to indicate what he was thinking subconsciously.
Christine didn't speak again after that sentence, and Evans was even more distracted, not knowing what he was thinking.
The maintenance here at the Marvel headquarters was finally overdue. At first they didn't know which floor Christine and Evans fell to, so they simply shouted layer by layer, and finally they were on the second and third floors. There was a voice responding from the junction.
"Here we are!"
Evans responded loudly after hearing the sound of maintenance and rescue.
A hint of surprise flashed in Christine's eyes. She picked up the mobile phone on the ground and yelled.
It took about a quarter of an hour before the elevator door was pried open by the maintenance personnel. Christine finally saw the light from the outside world, and the fear in her heart dissipated. She struggled to stand up and let the maintenance personnel pull herself go up.
"Be careful."
Evans reached out to support her body that was about to fall because she couldn't stand still.
Christine looked down at his hand on her waist, Evans quickly released her after holding her steady, an unknown emotion flashed through Christine's heart, she thanked softly: " Thanks."
Immediately, the two were pulled up one after another by the maintenance staff. Christine leaned against the wall and took off the high heels that brought her bad luck today, wrinkled her nose, and threw it into the trash can.
Evans had just straightened his shirt at this time, caught a glimpse of Christine's small movements, the corners of his mouth curled up, but he quickly suppressed it.
Kevin, the president of Marvel, soon learned of the episode where the two were trapped in the elevator from the preview, and rushed over: "I'm really sorry."
He looked at the two people standing far apart, and even looked at each other in the wrong direction. Kevin, who understood the embarrassing relationship between the two, was indeed somewhat apologetic.
"Next time I won't dare to take the elevator up." Christine said as if joking but also seriously.
"I promise, this situation will never happen again in the future." Kevin replied seriously and seriously.
Christine smiled, but didn't reply.
To be honest, no one would be in a good mood if they encountered such a mess.
Kristen and Evans had done a good job of not throwing a tantrum at them.
After all, according to common sense, they can still file a lawsuit.
Kristen asked Leslie to come and pick her up after attending the preview that day. The swollen ankle obviously made her unable to drive by herself.
And until Christine entered the preview, she didn't know what Evans was doing at Marvel today.
It can't be to sign a contract, can it?
As Christine thought about it, she laughed to herself, and didn't bother to worry about it. An Xin looked at "Captain Marvel", which was said to have cut a lot of scenes.
This movie is the most confused movie she has ever shot. What she said on the "Ellen Show" before is not a lie. She really doesn't know which shots will be used in "Captain Marvel" and which ones. The footage will be used again in Avengers 4.
The answer was revealed today.
[It turns out that the special effects are like this! 】
[Is the plot here originally like this?It was weird when I said how to shoot. 】
[This outfit is really not photogenic, I would have proposed to change it if I knew it earlier...]
[I don’t know where the cat is raised now? 】
[It's so cool and hot here!I'm so handsome! 】
【Hiss—this expression is really ugly...】
On the whole, Christine is actually very satisfied with this version of "Captain Marvel". After the movie is finished, there are obviously not a few people who have the same idea as her.
This is reflected in the warm applause.
The budget of "Captain Marvel" is not the highest among Marvel movies, or even a relatively low one, but it still has a full $1.52 million. Correspondingly, the return that Marvel wants is also proportional.
They don't want to lose money.
Unlike DC, they follow the style of exploring the depth of human nature in a dark way. Their movie positioning is very simple, that is, popcorn movies.
Cool, gorgeous, explosive, funny, and fast-paced will do!
After watching the preview, the people present all had more or less confidence in this "Captain Marvel", and had corresponding guesses about the box office, so several of their main creators simply came to a bet.
"7 million!" Samuel said, comparing the number seven with his fingers.
"I think it will be more, 8 million." Jude Law continued with a smile.
"I bet 10 billion." Christine said with narrowed eyes, with a mysterious expression on her face: "You are all going to lose."
Her words were perfectly confirmed when the global box office of "Captain Marvel" was released a few months later, even higher than she predicted.After that, Samuel and Jude called her one after another to ask her to help calculate the box office of their next movie. They really regarded her as a prophet!
Christine was very careful in the promotion of "Captain Marvel", and traveled almost all over the world. Coupled with her popularity, the global box office of this movie is still rising after exceeding one billion US dollars. , It rose to 14 billion before it slowly stopped.
Not surprisingly, this number can be added to another [-] million when the movie is released worldwide!
Marvel almost narrowed its eyes with a smile, lamenting that it really chose the right person at the beginning, and if someone else played "Captain Marvel", it really might not have such a high box office!
Listen to the comments from the media and fans, almost half of them are complaining about the ugliness of the costumes, but when they complain, they must add a sentence "only Christine's appearance can support this costume".
Thanks to Christine's biological parents for making her so beautiful.
The high-level people in Marvel thought about it.
