Alien invasions have become the latest media sensation.
For the first time, people witnessed an extraterrestrial civilization and experienced an alien invasion. That magnificent beam of light and the expanding wormhole were edited into videos and images, reprinted and broadcast repeatedly in major newspapers, websites, and even on big screens in the streets.
hide?
Unless the whole world is cast into a state of oblivion, no one can suppress such big news.
These days, all people's attention and gaze are on extraterrestrial civilizations.
Where in the universe do they come from?
Why did they invade Earth?
Will they make a comeback?
How did those superheroes deal with them and resolve this crisis?
All newspapers related to extraterrestrial civilizations and the battle for Washington will be snapped up, and any information about it on the Internet will attract a lot of attention.
Forums related to aliens became so heated that discussions exploded, causing the servers to crash multiple times.
Everyone, online and offline, was discussing this information. If they still couldn't figure out what the traffic password was, the reporters and media owners would be going bungee jumping off buildings.
So during this period you will find that the media, newspapers and television are all filled with information about the Battle of Washington. When the heat of the Battle of Washington subsides and people get tired of it, they will immediately move on to the past and present of extraterrestrial civilizations.
true and false?
It doesn't matter.
Major newspapers and media outlets, concerned with prestige and maintaining their style and authenticity, didn't overdo the show, simply recruiting experts to analyze and educate. Some even managed to retrieve an alien anatomy diagram leaked from an unknown base and, using the script, explained the differences between the Chitauri and human bodies. While the show was quickly canceled, the buzz was real, and the traffic and benefits were substantial.
Tabloid newspapers don't have the connections and capabilities of the big media, but they do have their own unique strengths. That's being shameless, using anything that's sensational, eye-catching, or shocking!
For example, the extraterrestrial love stories serialized by someone else, etc. There is a dazzling variety of them, and each title is more eye-catching than the last.
But after this barrage of information, people's curiosity and thirst for knowledge remain unsatisfied, and they're no longer interested in those groundless rumors and wild speculations. So what's to be done? Major media outlets are pulling their hair out, realizing that the only way to maintain the hype and squeeze out this wave of traffic is to obtain more information about extraterrestrial invaders.
As a result, the government's press office and other departments were subjected to intense harassment, leaving the staff complaining bitterly. Many media outlets and journalists had previously harassed them frantically, but back then, any casual post would generate traffic, so they could tolerate it. But now, to maintain their attention and traffic, the media has gone crazy! The harassment has escalated again and again! From work to home, 24 hours a day, there's not a single moment of free time. After a few days of persistence, the staff in these departments gave up and filled their superiors' mailboxes with leave requests.
reject?
A resignation letter replaced a leave application.
If these people really have some inside information, they would even risk breaking the rules to expose it and make a fortune, but the key is that these people are clueless and don't know anything!
Of course, with such intense harassment and networking, some media outlets were able to obtain the information they sought. While not many, compared to their peers who gained nothing, they were already on the verge of victory. These outlets, armed with so-called exclusive news and insider information, naturally reaped the lion's share of this wave of traffic.
Unsurprisingly, the media outlets that were able to obtain this currently classified information were mostly well-known. However, the valuable intelligence they could dig up was limited. Their official informants also couldn't possibly know everything and sell all of it to the newspapers.
Just as the media, reeling from nearly a month of revelry, refused to give up the data traffic password, a group called Rising Tide surfaced, providing major newspapers with a wealth of valuable and compelling intelligence. Not only about the invaders, but also information about Thor in Asgard! Every other day, this group would release some intelligence, claiming to possess the ultimate bomb.
The media's blood is boiling.
The officials are having a headache.
After a minute of ranting in his office, Nick from S.H.I.E.L.D. finally had to step down and take charge of the media frenzy before things got out of hand. They selectively released a large number of images and focused on introducing the superhero versions of popular stars.
Iron Man, Hulk, Captain Steve, and now the media darling, the popular Thor!
It's a given that S.H.I.E.L.D. still has talented people, with a knack for operational planning and copywriting. Right off the bat, they've already siphoned off a significant portion of the traffic. S.H.I.E.L.D.'s negotiation team then went door-to-door visiting major media outlets and the people behind them. After a series of backroom deals, the newspapers promised to honor S.H.I.E.L.D.'s wishes and report on their behalf. This came with the understanding that S.H.I.E.L.D. could provide the intelligence they needed, and ideally, the cooperation of the superheroes, including photo opportunities and interviews.
So, under Nick's emotional and logical plea, Captain America returned to his old job and became a "model" again. Of course, this time he had been on the battlefield and had real combat experience to show for it.
Iron Man also got some information about his father and some special materials from Nick, and then he made a leisurely appearance and accepted two interviews. One of them was with Captain America, and the ratings of the show that day were very high.
The people behind the newspapers were frantically suggesting that Nick could add a few more, but Nick ignored these suggestions. Captain America and Iron Man were already his signature characters, so who else in the league could be as suitable?
Are they agents Hawkeye, Natasha and others whose identities need to be kept secret?
Or the smashing Hulk and the vengeful Frank?
Or Stephen, who became a wizard, and Luke Field, who never gives interviews?
Thor? Yeah, he's also a hot topic, but he's returned to Asgard with his brother Loki. Should we ask him to go to Asgard and bring him over for the interview?
Nick had no desire to devote so much energy to satisfying the media's insatiable demands. He already had a ton of problems on his plate. After addressing the questions and concerns, he still had to deal with the problems that arose from this intrusion into the real world.
For example, the recovery of Chitauri corpses and weapons?
There were so many Chitauri corpses on the battlefield that they had no time to clear them all and confiscate them immediately. And the entire city was within the Chitauri's range. Perhaps a Chitauri's body lay in a secluded corner, and a citizen might find it and take its weapons.
During this time, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were mostly busy handling the aftermath and cleanup. Every day, there were at least ten incidents involving Chitauri weapons, including but not limited to robberies, store robberies, and bank robberies. At peak times, surveillance captured hundreds of similar incidents within a 24-hour period!
Even worse, the bodies of the Chitauri soldiers were being offered at exorbitant prices on the underground black market! Some of the people who had posted the information about the purchases were even black gloves from other countries, as well as some corporate partners or spokespeople.
The hidden danger of alien viruses posed by the Chitauri.
A major reshuffle began among the top officials in a struggle for power.
After all the trivial and tedious matters, there was now another organization called Rising Tide that needed to be dealt with as soon as possible. Otherwise, Nick had no idea what those hacker groups that were so bold as to invade the SHIELD system, break through the multiple layers of defense, and obtain some information would do in the future.
The only thing that made him feel at ease during this period was that Luke didn't bother him. He really didn't have the energy or the trustworthy people to help Luke do anything.
…
Haibolun employee area.
Inside Luke's villa.
"What's the matter? You know, the construction industry is very hot recently, and our project has gathered most of the high-quality construction companies." Ina Sandra pushed the door open and walked in briskly, and asked Luke, who was sitting on the sofa in a daze.
"Oh my God, what's wrong with you? I knew you would forget the time when you were studying! I told you to take care of yourself! You look so tired, how long have you been staying up late?" Seeing Luke turned around with a face full of fatigue, Ina's brisk steps suddenly paused. She walked quickly forward, got close to carefully look at Luke's messy hair and bloodshot eyes, and blamed him angrily.
"That has nothing to do with it." Luke sighed.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Ina stood up from in front of Luke and looked down at him sitting on the sofa.
Soon, Ina found out the reason.
"Wow!" A loud and sharp cry came from the bedroom upstairs. The sound was so loud and penetrating that it shocked Ina.
"I seem to hear a child crying." Ina tilted her head and looked at Luke suspiciously. No child had ever come to this villa.
"That's why I'm sighing and looking like this." Luke scratched his hair, stood up from the sofa, and quickly walked upstairs to the bedroom. Ina followed closely behind him. When they reached the bedroom door, Luke put his hand on the handle and turned to Ina with a serious face and said, "No matter what you see or hear later, don't get excited. I can explain it!"
