……………………………………
By the time the two of them came out of the hotel, it was already afternoon.
And then......
"Wow, wow, wow!" Julia Roberts, holding a newspaper in her hand, was jumping around in front of the hotel, with a joyful face, and the signature bright, bright sunny smile on her face was so charming, cute and beautiful.
Abel smiled silently beside him.
Julia Roberts then looked at the newspaper for a short time, and then threw it away, ignoring the fact that it was the door of the hotel, and threw it in the trash.
And he threw himself at Abel.
Jumped on top of him all at once.
"Honey! You're right, I'm going to be famous overnight! Last night's movie, the studio exploded!"
While accepting the initiative of the goddess of the big mouth, Abel looked at the newspaper on the ground.
This is a [Hollywood Entertainment Newspaper], in this year, it is basically one of the most authoritative paparazzi newspapers entertainment newspapers in Hollywood, belonging to CBS, that is, Columbia Radio and Television Group.
In today's freshest issue of the March 24 newspaper, the front page headline reads:
[Small cost, big bang! Pretty Woman won the box office on the first day, and the attendance rate of the North American premiere was amazing!]
The particularly bold few lines of numbers let Abel know that last night's Pretty Woman had just premiered in about 865 movie theaters in North America, and it reaped a box office of about $2.59 million!
That's a bit of an exaggeration.
You must know that the average ticket price of movie tickets in the United States in this era is only about $4 to $6. And the ticket price of the recent new movie is not the same from state to state, the same new movie, some states $4, some states $8, to New York, to a dozen dollars. And the movies that are scheduled can be seen for $1 in some states.
865 theaters, counting the audience seats in each theater is about 500~1000, so the box office of about 2.59 million US dollars divided by 865 cinemas, that is, a movie theater must contribute at least 3000 US dollars to the box office.
With this kind of low-cost movie, it is impossible for the cinema to release a full schedule, and a 30% of the schedule will be snickered.
With such a film schedule, it is just a one-night premiere, and each theater can harvest an average of $3,000 at the box office, so how terrifying is the attendance?
Abel, who is familiar with the "original script", knows the terrifying box office harvesting ability of the 14 million US dollar movie.
If he had crossed a year or two earlier, he would never give up the opportunity to invest in such an investment, and he would definitely invest in the beautiful woman himself.
But Julia Roberts didn't know.
It should be said that except for Abel, no one in this world will know that a movie with only $14 million investment will be so exaggerated at the box office.
So......
Julia exploded.
She exploded.
In the face of this kind of embrace, Abel of course enjoyed it irreverently, and the two of them got up at the door of the hotel.
After some intimacy.
Abel hugged her and said with a smile: "I said that the movie was just released last night. There is a kind of person who is not born ordinary, Julia, you are this kind of person. It's like gold sparkles wherever it goes. Julia, today's box office is proof of that. ”
Listen to the men's compliments.
Abel's teasing and affirmation in the past half a month has finally taken effect.
In the past half a month, the two have been dating and talking on the phone, and Abel has been constantly affirming that the box office of Pretty Woman will be amazing, and Julia Roberts will definitely reach the top in Hollywood because of this seemingly ordinary small-budget movie.
Now, his "prophecy" is beginning to work, it is beginning to take effect.
Abel accepted it calmly.
Suddenly.
Card Wipe Card Rub!
There was a sound of flashing lights next to him, and the two who were making out hurriedly turned their heads to look.
Several paparazzi reporters were rushing in, taking pictures as they came out, and shouting:
"Ms. Roberts, I'm from Hollywood Entertainment Weekly, can I give an interview to our newspaper?!"
"Julia, I'm from the Hollywood Daily and we want to interview you!"
"This gentleman who appeared with you at the premiere yesterday, is he your boyfriend? Don't say no, ma'am. I've taken your photos today, and I'm sure I'll ...... tomorrow."
“……”
Thankfully, the Hilton security guards were loyal enough to stop the paparazzi before they could rush in front of the guests.
"Afraid of exposure, afraid of him taking pictures?" Abel asked Julia with a shrug.
He actually didn't want to be filmed, but it was too late to stop it. Then it's better to just pretend to be chic, shoot anyway, he's not married, and he doesn't have a legitimate girlfriend, what's the big deal about falling in love or something.
In the United States anyway.
It's so normal for celebrities and rich people to fall in love, and you can't see the future NBA star Lu Wei, and even show off that he has two girlfriends!
Julia Roberts was a little panicked when she was just photographed kissing Abel.
She's just getting started.
Exposing the relationship too early has a certain impact on the career.
But the girl's personality is just like her looks, bright and sunny, and she quickly sees it.
She smiled and replied, "Why, as long as you want, I will." There's not a single federal law that says I can't fall in love with you!"
After speaking.
She even waved at the media friends, compared a yes photo, and then threw one foot on Abel's body, hooked his neck with both hands, and sent a fragrant kiss again.
