"The Martian is a very wonderful movie, our thousands of employees have transformed a desert, arranged the Martian scene in thousands of square meters of studios, and the human base, Mars rover, spacecraft and other equipment are all built according to the original shape........

At the entrance of the Imperial Theater, Tang An still calmly answered these ill-intentioned questions from reporters.

Although the questions were more acute than the other, and some of the separated audience next to them were still glaring angrily, Tang An didn't take it to heart.

Judging from the movements just learned, it is just a small fight.

After all, they are all movies released by 20th Century Fox, which cost tens of millions of dollars in publicity and distribution, and occupy a lot of resources.

It's normal to have a little trick, but if it makes a big fuss and affects the interests of the company, other executives and the head of Fox will not agree.

After a few moments at the door, I walked into the theater after a while.

Tang An, who was shouting and threatening the audience, didn't pay attention to it, saying that everything was too much, not to mention that he was Chinese.

As long as the box office power of the film is demonstrated, 20th Century Fox will take care of everything.

Besides, it's not a bad thing to be controversial, and it's fatal if there's no movement.

Looking at the film adaptations around the world, there is not a single film that is not full of controversy, and there is hardly a film that will satisfy the book fans and most movie fans.

After delaying these efforts, Jami, vice president of global theatrical distribution at 20th Century Fox, was belated.

He quickly followed, "Mr. Don, those people outside are connected by Neil and Paul, and have nothing to do with us Fox. ”

Obviously, he also knew about the emergency here, and quickly found out the results.

Let's dispel Tang An's misunderstanding first, after all, this is a movie released by 20th Century Fox, no matter whether Tang An is a big name or not, it is not a good thing to target his own movie after all.

"Mr. Jami, of course I know, but I just hope that you can do a good job of follow-up publicity. Tang An smiled.

The Neil and Paul in his mouth are Neil Marchillis and Paul Diesson, the producers of the two movies "Rat Noble 3" and "My Family Bought a Zoo".

Regardless of whether or not Fox insiders participate, Tang An will not ask more, everything has to be based on the box office, otherwise even if no one makes trouble, once the box office fails, follow-up publicity and film scheduling cannot be guaranteed.

Walking side by side inside, Jami whispered, "Ms. Deng is under a lot of pressure in order to win the current conditions for "The Martian", and many people in the group have objections, and they have been blocked by her......"

It's basically how much work Wendy put into the release of "The Martian" and so on.

Tang An said, "Will Ms. Deng come tonight?"

"She may not be here tonight, she has something to deal with, and Mr. Tang also knows that Ms. Deng has been in the Fox business for less than a year." ”

......

When I came to the screening hall, the scene was simple enough, and it was completely incomparable with Tang An's premiere in China, and it was even inferior to the scale of the premiere of "Horror Cruise".

There's no way, they basically don't have any fame in the United States, and they have to carry last year's "Edge of Tomorrow" with them when they promote it.

If you want to talk about Tang An, even people who have watched "Edge of Tomorrow" don't remember this fame, and even Liu Ye, the leading actor, is estimated to be recognized.

There was no red carpet, a few reporters, no big stars in attendance.

But someone came uninvited.

Donald Lane, Neil Majlis, and Paul Deson arrived in the screening room before the show began.

As if nothing had happened, Jammie introduced Tang An separately.

"Hello. Tang An smiled and said hello to the two of them.

It's Donald's turn, also the producer of last year's "Dancing Club."

"Mr. Donald, it's been a long time, but I watched your Green Lantern last year, and the movie was amazing. ”

As soon as he said this, Donald's expression was as ugly as eating poop.

Last year, at a banquet in "Edge of Tomorrow", he was ignored for throwing Tang An's face, and publicly announced that the superhero movie "Green Lantern" he produced would show Tang An what a blockbuster was.

As a result, "Green Lantern", which cost $250 million to produce, failed at the box office, with a box office of $120 million in North America and just $100 million overseas.

The global box office is 220 million, and the production cost is not high, which directly ruined the superhero Green Lantern and almost ruined his own career as a producer.

"Humph!"

Donald opened his mouth, and Donald, who had intended to taunt a few words, was choked speechless, and finally only snorted heavily in his nostrils.

Paul Deathan, the producer of "My Family Bought a Zoo", looked Tang An up and down, and didn't pay attention to Tang An, and said to Jammie, "Jammy, why did you waste so many films for such a person?"

"Paul, you better take care of yourself and think about how to get back to the big production. Jami looked at him coldly.

As soon as they came, the atmosphere was unpleasant, and Tang An was not interested in dealing with them.

In fact, there were not many guests who came, the vice president of global distribution that the Lions had previously worked with, and Elizabeth, the vice president of Colombia who was in charge of the North American distribution of "Edge of Tomorrow".

Although they have some opinions about Tang An not handing over the new film to them for distribution, they can't give 20th Century Fox conditions, and they have nothing to say.

The audience entered one after another, and the IMAX hall of 500 people sat 7 and a half percent of the audience, and the attendance rate was very good.

The movie screening went quite smoothly, although Tang An could hear the complaints of a few fans of the original book at the beginning, but there were too few people who had read the book, and it didn't matter at all if he gave up this part of the box office.

From the time Liu Ye was left on Mars, the movie has attracted the attention of the audience.

There are no cultural differences, even if they are replaced by yellow-skinned actors, it does not hinder the audience's perception of the movie.

When they saw Liu Ye doing surgery for himself, the audience's reaction was similar to that in China, and they could vaguely hear bursts of exclamations, mixed with national scolding and God and his old man.

Some of the audiences who came to the premiere were because they had seen other popular movies, and there were no movies to watch, so they didn't know why they chose this one.

Some still remember last year's "Edge of Tomorrow", and just knew that it was filmed by the same director.

Some have read the original book, and some just want to see the premiere freshly.

Regardless of whether they intended to watch "The Martian" or not, when they put their energy into the movie, their hearts were also touched.

With the experience of the actor, the audience's hearts are like a roller coaster, until they finally return to Earth safely, and some people can't help but applaud.

......

The premiere was relatively successful, and the next promotion was done by 20th Century Fox, and Tang An didn't even have to go to the roadshow.

It's useless to go, it's almost useless.

With all sorts of comments, the day passed.

On the morning of the 7th, major media reported the box office data of several movies on the first day of the weekend.

"The Devil in the Heart" got 11 million on the first day of release.

"Mission Impossible 4" got 7 million on the first day of the fourth weekend.

"Sherlock Holmes 2" is also the fourth weekend, with 4.5 million in a single day.

followed by "The Martian", which received a first-day box office of 4.2 million with 2,200 theaters on the first day of release, ranking fourth on the day.
