Made In Hollywood

Below the building, the agent wearing sunglasses coldly warned the leading police officer. The scene quickly shifted back to the room where Trinity was.

The burly police officer walked toward Trinity, who had her hands on her head. Through the officer's figure, her curvy body in tight leather was especially alluring, with long legs, a slender waist, and a shapely rear that effortlessly triggered the hormones of the men around her.

Hawkins instinctively swallowed, suddenly hearing similar sounds from many others nearby.

But the next scene left many people with their mouths open, eyes wide, almost spitting out the saliva they had just swallowed.

This fight was simply indescribable!

Just as the officer was about to put handcuffs on Trinity, she suddenly spun around and leapt into the air. The scene clearly entered high-speed slow-motion, with a 360-degree rotating shot showcasing the movement, fully displaying the heroine's long legs and slender waist.

Trinity's long leg kicked out fiercely, sending the officer flying into the wall. The remaining ten or so officers drew their guns and aimed at Trinity, preparing to shoot.

"This can't be real, right?"

Amanda looked at the screen, staring at the agile heroine like a female leopard, seemingly unable to believe her eyes.

"Cool!" Miley waved her small fists excitedly.

In the scene, Trinity dashed towards the closest officer with lightning speed, disarming him and kicking him in the head before he could pull the trigger. The officer collapsed instantly, but the guns of the other officers were already aimed at her, and the audience could clearly see that a few quick-moving officers were already pulling their triggers.

But the officers were fast, and Trinity was faster. With a quick run-up, she leaped into the air once again, avoiding the bullets aimed at her, and shot back.

In a suspended cross position!

This action, already visually spectacular, combined with Charlize Theron's height and long legs, was simply too cool to handle!

She fired the gun repeatedly, taking down several officers. Just as the audience thought the heroine would precisely shoot down the remaining officers, Trinity launched herself towards them, using her hands, elbows, legs, feet, knees, gun butt, and bullets as weapons. Officers kept falling under her attacks that combined gunplay and hand-to-hand combat.

Meanwhile, the officers' shots missed as Trinity effortlessly dodged them.

It was a one-sided slaughter!

"So cool!"

The audience, mainly teenagers, couldn't help but make exclamations at this scene.

"This… What fighting style is this? I've never seen anything like it."

Spielberg furrowed his brow. Although the film's style didn't suit his taste, the series of moves from the heroine were dazzling beyond belief—simply beautiful.

Even though this scene might be accused of showing off technical skills, Spielberg could hear the overwhelming "cool" comments coming from behind him, and he knew this was exactly what teenage audiences craved!

Teenage audiences were the main consumer group in the movie market. Gaining their approval and support meant easily dominating the commercial market.

With this thought in mind, Spielberg curiously asked, "What fighting style is this?"

He turned to ask George Lucas. Everyone knew Lucas had a deep connection with the Rosenberg family, and Lucas didn't disappoint him. "I heard Duke mention it, Steven. He said this is a blend of gunplay and hand-to-hand combat, combining firearms with body movements."

"But how can a person do this?" Spielberg asked, feeling incredulous.

George Lucas pointed at the heroine on the screen, who was jumping and rolling, "Keep watching, you'll understand."

Under the night sky, Trinity was leaping between buildings, trying to escape the agents. Her movements were agile, and her long legs had explosive power. The tight leather was stretched over her tall, sexy body, and each jump made the audience in the theater gasp.

"Her name is Charlize Theron, right?"

Hawkins asked Norman beside him. After receiving an affirmative answer, he spoke passionately, "This is my goddess! Even if it's just to see her, I'll go to the theater a few more times!"

Such a powerful Trinity, yet she was being chased by agents everywhere, easily giving the impression that the agents were incredibly strong.

Finally, Trinity managed to shake off the agents, running out of the building toward a wide road. The phone booth ahead was her goal, but another agent, Smith, was already waiting in front of it, driving a truck.

Trinity hesitated, realizing that the agent was likely planning to run her over when she entered the phone booth.

"Why would she go into the phone booth?"

A black man mumbled to himself, seemingly confused. There were no other agents blocking her, and she could easily escape to another place.

"Anthony, don't ask such stupid questions."

Someone beside him pushed him slightly, "Duke arranged the plot this way for a reason."

The phone booth began ringing, and after a slight hesitation, Trinity moved her surprisingly long legs and decisively rushed into the booth, picking up the phone.

At the same time, Agent Smith started his truck and rammed the phone booth, shattering it to pieces, but there was no sign of Trinity's body in the wreckage.

"Where did she go?"

The heroine couldn't possibly die at the start of the film, and the audience was aware of that, but her disappearance was puzzling.

"She escaped." Another agent on the screen explained to the audience, revealing another important piece of information, "Our inside source provided very accurate information."

An inside source? A traitor? Was Trinity not alone?

The opening scene of ten minutes ended with three agents standing coolly in a row, and the camera shifted to Neo's storyline through the phone.

How did Trinity escape? This became a question for many viewers.

"She didn't just disappear through the phone, right?"

In the front row, Irene Lauder asked Duke curiously, "It seems like this world is very strange?"

Duke lowered his voice and answered, "If I told you the heroine really escaped through the phone, would you believe me?"

"Of course!" Irene nodded without hesitation. "I know Duke. He always has weird ideas."

She glanced at Charlize Theron, "The heroine's figure is really amazing, it even makes me feel a bit moved."

Duke gave her a quick glance and nodded toward the screen with his chin. "Let's just watch the movie."

What followed was a series of dramatic scenes that were crucial in establishing the world's framework. Duke, naturally, made many cuts to trim overly mystical parts of the plot. He also sped up the pacing by shortening some shots, using more concise visual language to explain the unusual aspects of the world.

The visuals and settings of the film maintained a dark, somewhat dated style. Neo's computer wasn't futuristic but a standard sponsor model.

The Matrix had garnered over $20 million in sponsorship from advertisers, and in exchange for the money, they had to deliver. Numerous brands advertised their products through the film, showcasing items that were either popular or about to be released.

For commercial sponsorship, the future was too far away.

From this angle, Duke was a director with a lot of credibility. Otherwise, even if the film was excellent, it wouldn't have been enough to attract so many sponsors to pay large sums.

The film cleverly integrated sponsored elements but kept the overall cyberpunk style intact. A film that constantly changed its tone would be impossible to imagine...

Duke also understood why The Matrix was so popular. The pretentious dialogue and philosophical themes might have earned praise from critics, but regular audiences couldn't care less about philosophical ponderings or the meaning of life. They came to the theater to see the coolness and thrill promised by the trailer!

The film clearly introduced Neo as a hacker, and both the Matrix and Morpheus were searching for him. After the first meeting between the male and female leads, the plot quickly shifted to the agents chasing after Neo. The Nokia flip-phone also drew a round of admiration from the audience.

In the first 15 minutes, from the actors to the props to the scenes, everything exuded cyberpunk vibes and extreme coolness.

At the same time, enough suspense was left: How did Trinity escape? What is the Matrix? Who is the mysterious Morpheus? Why is an ordinary-looking Neo considered the savior? Why did the agents capture Neo just because he was a hacker?

Neo, disobeying Morpheus's advice, was eventually captured by the agents. During the interrogation, another unbelievable scene unfolded.

"If you can't speak."

Agent Smith coldly said to Neo, "What's the use of calling a lawyer?"

Neo didn't understand, but just then, his mouth suddenly sealed shut, and it began disappearing bit by bit from the screen, until he was left without a mouth!

The audience was stunned. What was going on? Did Agent Smith have supernatural powers?

After recalling Trinity's previous series of superhuman feats, the audience began to realize that maybe this wasn't a real world?

A future world?

But it didn't look like it. Apart from the characters' strange abilities, the environment and tools in the film seemed to be no different from the present world...

Then, a more shocking scene took place. Neo was strapped to the interrogation table when Agent Smith pulled out an electronic bug that quickly crawled into Neo's stomach.

Anthony and his companions exchanged glances, sensing the strangeness of this world.

The scene abruptly shifted, and Neo suddenly woke up, seemingly from a dream.

But was it really just a dream?
