Chapter 86, Money Still Has to Be Earned
"The bold work of a Chinese girl, the figure of a girl at the scene of the murder!" ć
"What happened to the screams under the moonlit night, the house where three dead bodies were found? ć
In the past two weeks, all kinds of magical articles have been continuously logged into major print media, and one by one the headlines are full of exaggerated things, which makes many readers across the country gasp at first, as if they want to read a thriller novel, and then keep shouting that they are deceived, it turns out that they are just some entertainment industry news about the start of filming of new films......
That's what you want. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After all, Alice really used all her milk energy to promote the movie.
After all, this is a business that can break 100 million.
In the afternoon, on the streets of downtown Los Angeles, the khaki military Humvee roared and drove with the roof still open, which was the outdoor activity of the SOS group jointly organized by Lincoln High School and Johnson Middle School.
The driver is the only Maiya with a driver's license, and she looks handsome and charming in black sunglasses and a brown slim-fit leather jacket. In the passenger seat, Alice brushes her long hair in the wind, and smiles at the dense crowd every time the car passes by a newsstand.
"Wow, Alice, I really admire you!"
In the back seat, Ashley's feet were directly on the back of the front seat, her golden ponytail fluttering in the wind, she drank McDonald's hot cocoa, and exclaimed, "That's a haunted house!" I read an article in a tabloid newspaper saying that there was a female ghost living in that house, and you dared to go there to make a movie. If it were me, I wouldn't dare to kill it! ā
Sitting next to her in the back row, Sissi snorted: "I don't think there's anything in this world that she doesn't dare to do, although I don't know why those three people died there, but even if there is really a serial murderer, it is impossible to go there to commit crimes again, what can't I go?" ā
"Not necessarily."
Slowly stopping in front of the red light, Maiya said calmly, "The location is just random, and the danger is to become the target of a murderer." So Alice, it's really risky for you to choose where the movie was filmed, maybe when the movie is released, the whole crew will be hunted down by each other? ā
Of course this is impossible, Alice kept smiling bitterly, after all, that villain was actually herself, but who told her that only she knew this secret? Therefore, in the face of everyone's various evaluations and concerns, she could only bear it silently.
"Hey, look."
It just so happened that next to the traffic light was a cinema, and Ashley pointed there and shouted, "Isn't this the promotional poster for "Ghost Shadows"? ā
Everyone looked there in unison.
As the second largest theater in the United States, AMC Cinemas Inc.'s subordinate theater chain will get a large number of classic movies in each round of schedule, when November has arrived, the Christmas schedule is about to begin, and a large number of posters of new films are hung on the exterior walls of the building. And in one of the most prominent places, a poster with blue tones attracted the attention of almost all passers-by.
"Ghost Shadows".
The houses in the middle of the night have an eerie atmosphere, and even if another lone light is on, it does not give people a sense of security at all. In the middle of the night, in the dead of night, the bedroom on the second floor was obviously asleep, but the light in the living room was shining, and there was a shadow that could not be seen clearly.
This is just the first one.
Obviously, because of the recent hot events, the theater chain has vacated two places for it to promote.
In the second poster, a couple in a late-night bedroom is unable to sleep at all, looking at the door with a frightened expression. The door is facing the poster's audience's sight, the door is open, and the dark corridor is empty, but there is a shadow reflected on the door, forming a heart-stopping picture.
"Wow, it's the first time I've seen it, it's so cool."
Ashley was full of praise: "Whoever designed the poster, so talented, I admire it!" ā
"You're a costume designer, not a graphic designer, so there's no need to use that sour tone, right?"
Alice said proudly: "As for your question, hum, it was I who did it~"
It just so happened that there was a serious traffic jam at the intersection right now, and everyone was fortunate to enjoy these two posters. Sissi sighed and said, "San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Las Vegas, Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Washington, Miami, Houston, Chicago, Atlanta...... Ah, I can't count how many cities are going to stage this movie. ā
Maimi put down her sunglasses: "No way, after all, this case has caused a national sensation, and even the United Kingdom and Australia have begun to report it, media tycoon Murdoch...... It's hard to think about this movie if it's not popular, who told Alice to shoot there? ā
As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little silent.
At the same age, Alice's achievements are too much higher than them.
When the news came out that "Ghost Shadow" was going to be filmed at that crime scene, the entire American people were boiling. Of course, the so-called boiling is not a huge sensation, but everyone's curiosity is fully mobilized. After all, this case is so weird, and a ghost movie should be filmed in such a house, how can it not be made a super gossip?
Of course, there are hundreds of millions of people in the United States, and only tens of millions of people are really affected by this news. But even these tens of millions of people, at least half of them must be converted into film audiences, right? In the face of this obvious potential market, of course, the major theaters across the country are ecstatic to cooperate with DreamWorks, and there is no doubt about the box office revenue!
So, as the director and investor of this movie, how much money can Alice get?
"People are more popular than dead people~"
Ashley stretched out her hand and patted Alice's head and said, "It's decided, it's up to you to treat you to dinner today, and we're going to the top restaurant to eat the top food!" ā
"No problem! Come on, SOS group, let's go~! ā
The heavy traffic jam at the intersection was relieved, and as soon as Maimi stepped on the accelerator, the Hummer roared out like a roaring beast. Everywhere they passed, no pedestrians could help but look sideways, let alone many drivers who drove small broken cars, and they couldn't help but cast envious glances at this huge and sturdy military vehicle.
"Speaking of which, Maiya, since your father is from the Delta Force, has he participated in any wonderful military operations?"
Literary Society...... Since there were no new members in the end, it was already a part of history by the beginning of October. As for Maimi, of course, she undoubtedly joined the SOS group formed by Alice, eating, drinking and having fun in the classroom with everyone every afternoon, and acting as a driver by the way.
"An organization that was only established in '78, and you can't expect it to have much success."
Should I say that I am worthy of being the child of a soldier, Maiya's answer was still so calm, but anyone could hear the pride in it: "However, if you really want to talk about my father's achievements, there is still one." ā
As soon as everyone heard it, it was okay, and Ashley's eyes suddenly lit up: "What, what is it, there is really a record, what's the matter?" Was it the Mexican War or the Independence Day Uprising!? Did he also participate in the great campaign to emancipate the black slaves? ā
"Uh...... It's not that exaggerated, it's just anti-hijacking. In 81, an Indonesian Airlines plane was hijacked by terrorists and forced to land in Bangkok, Delta Force rescued at the request of Thailand, and finally succeeded in killing the terrorists and rescuing the hostages. My father was involved in the operation and successfully killed a terrorist. ā
Listening to Maiya's indifferent tone, how could the girls in the whole car not blow up the nest? Ashley was the first to scream, constantly yelling to warm the sheets for Maiya's father, regardless of the fact that people's faces became more and more tangled. Sissi's mouth was full of interjections, and with the rumbling motor of the Humvee, her various f-words could be heard throughout the street.
Alice was surprised, but her heart couldn't help but move. Speaking of the Delta Special Forces, it is inevitable that people will not think of the US military industry, and the Boeing Company is famous for its civil airliners, and the research and development of military aircraft is not weak at all. If she could buy a big company like Boeing......
Although the earning power is certainly not as good as that of Silicon Valley companies, it is completely different in nature. Whether it is civil aviation or military industry, it is equivalent to getting involved in these two extremely lofty industries at once, and that pride is not comparable to ordinary achievements.
"Looks like I need to make a lot of money."
Alice touched her nose, originally thinking that she was waiting for Cisco and Microsoft to become the richest man in stock prices, and the money was already very easy. However, considering the cost of time, if she really wants to make her career bigger, she still has to work hard to make some cash.
Of course, this is a big business...... It can only be said by her own standards.
