Chapter 924: Coming (3/3)
"A classic 'popcorn' blockbuster, that's all, enough to pass the time. ”
"Worth the fare, worth the time, but sorry for the expectations. ”
"With the same plot and consistent hero mode, is there only these things left in Dimei Pictures to fool the audience now?"
"The Flash" premiered last night and became a very big sensation, the venue was full, and countless fans lined up to buy tickets. ”
"Everyone knows that sequels are difficult to make, especially when this is still a blockbuster movie with countless fans, after the release of the third part of "The Flash", the results are quite qualified!"
The next day, after the premiere of "The Flash", various entertainment media in the United States commented on this sequel.
There are good and bad.
There are praises and disapprovals.
Polarization is very serious, and ordinary people may be confused by the news commentary and reports of the media, but in the eyes of everyone in the entertainment industry, they know what is going on.
That is the third "The Flash" In the eyes of filmmakers, it is scum, so many film critics are pointing at Dimei Pictures for scolding.
As for the film reviews that sang the praises of Dimei Pictures, Hollywood knows what is going on.
PR only.
However, now it seems that the sequel to "The Flash" should be made in a decent way, with no failures and no surprises.
The vision of those filmmakers is too high, aren't all movies made like this?
Is it possible to photograph a flower?
For the filming of a sequel to a blockbuster movie, as long as it does not fail, it is a success.
Dimei Pictures.
Harrison Hopkins slowly flipped through each newspaper in front of him, carefully reading each of the news reports and film reviews on last night's premiere of "The Flash."
Whether it is praising the news or belittling film reviews, he still has an indifferent look on his face in his eyes, and does not reveal a trace of strangeness.
Then, he picked up the box office statistics that the person below had just sent over, looked at it, and put it aside.
Only then did Harrison's brow furrow furrow slightly, and he stood up and walked a few steps, as if thinking about something.
Walking to the floor-to-ceiling windows, the view here is very good, you can see the blue sky and white clouds outside, and you can also see the traffic below.
The box office data is like a movie review I just saw, there are no surprises and no failures.
This made Harrison feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he was also prepared for this situation, making a movie, it is impossible for everyone to like it, even if it is a classic movie, there will be audiences who don't like it.
But what made him feel unhappy was that the box office results of the premiere of "The Flash" were much worse than he expected.
You must know that this movie, which has long been planned by the company to be launched in the Christmas schedule, can be said to be the highest investment in publicity and distribution in recent years.
With more than 100 million rice dollars, you can almost make another movie.
With so much publicity money spent, the box office data of the premiere is not much higher than that of other films, which is a bit unspeakable.
Was it a special case, or was the film really bad?
Just as Harrison pondered this question, a white plane sprayed with the Chinese dragon pattern slowly landed at Los Angeles International Airport.
On the fuselage of this plane, there are also two Chinese characters for dragons flying and phoenixes dancing: fame.
"Arrived?"
In the cabin, Yang Ming, who was resting with an eye patch, took off the eye patch, looked outside from the window next to him, and had arrived in Los Angeles.
"Hmm. Su Su, who was sitting not far away, heard Yang Ming's words and replied, and then she continued: "Ah Ming, wait a minute, Xiaoyue and I will go shopping first, and if you have something to do, you will go busy first." ”
Hearing this, Yang Ming glanced at Hua Xiaoyue, who was sitting next to Su Su, nodded, and said, "Okay." ”
This time, I came to the United States to participate in the premiere, and I want to go to some cities in the United States to do publicity, Hua Xiaoyue, the female number one, will definitely follow, and there is another person who will also work with Yang Ming and Hua Xiaoyue to promote the movie, that is, Niu Hua.
After all, his current career focus is to expand his international profile.
Although it was very hard to go to several cities in the United States to publicize, Niu Hua still pushed off a lot of schedules and followed Yang Ming together.
As for the others, there is no need to come, and I guess they don't want to come either.
At this moment, Niu Hua came over and joked with a smile: "Boss Yang's private jet is comfortable to sit on, and we have to fight local tyrants at night." ”
Yang Ming bought a private jet, but he didn't make a big deal of it, and Niu Hua didn't know that he came to the United States to advertise that he was taking Yang Ming's private jet, so when he saw the 'Yang Ming', it was full of amazement.
To be honest, with Niu Hua's financial resources, he can also buy a private jet, but he can't afford it.
The maintenance cost of more than 50 million a year is really prohibitive.
The expenses of all the members of the optical crew need at least nearly 2 million yuan a year, and the combined salaries of all the people in his studio are not so much.
After the plane arrived in Los Angeles, Yang Ming and the others got off the plane and did not leave immediately.
At this time, after another plane landed at the airport, Yang Ming instructed a company employee beside him: "You must keep an eye on those two containers, don't have any accidents, someone will come to assist you later." ”
"Don't worry, chairman, I promise that there will be no mistakes. The clerk patted his chest.
After a few moments, Barber appeared not far away with a few men, who must have come to pick them up.
After everyone met, they exchanged pleasantries for a while, and it didn't take long for a staff member from the local airport to come over to inform Yang Ming that the goods they were transporting by another plane had been unloaded.
For the next thing, there was no need for Yang Ming to come forward in person, and Barber arranged for a few people to hand over with the people brought by Yang Ming.
"I really didn't expect you to bring these two big guys over this time, I guess these two guys will appear tomorrow night and take over the flash in the hands of reporters. Barber said with a smile and Yang Ming.
"It's really a big deal, and it's the first time I've seen this kind of movie promotion. Niu Hua also said with a little excitement.
Yang Ming smiled when he heard this, it's not a big deal, in order to transport these two big guys over, he specially chartered a plane, but this cost 300,000 yuan, and he asked his uncle to find an acquaintance who specializes in air transportation.
Otherwise, 500,000 Chinese yuan would not be able to stop, and now this plane would not fly back to China empty.
That's why the cost is a lot cheaper.
Su Su and Hua Xiaoyue did not go back to the hotel booked with Yang Ming and them, but went straight to the city and went shopping at the airport under the leadership of a Chinese-speaking person arranged by Barber.
It's Christmas, and the whole West is in a revelry, and Los Angeles is no exception.
Yang Ming brought Su Su over, among other reasons, to let her have a good time in Los Angeles.
Yang Ming didn't say much, and then got into Barber's car with Niu Hua.
""The Flash" premiered last night, what about the media comments today?" Yang Ming asked impatiently after getting in the car.
