Hollywood film companies have professional box office analysts, and "Xichu" naturally invites them, Cheng Xiaoyu is taking the report written by James Wade, a professional box office analyst invited at the moment, and in the next few days, "Horror Movie" will face strong pressure from "Future Men 3", not only in the box office, but also in the number of screens. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

And "Horror Movie", which has been released for a month, has been pressed out of obvious decline by the menacing "Future Warriors 3".

Although one of the characteristics of the grossing comedy in the North American market is that the decline percentage is very slow, and considering that the comedy market in November has completely fallen into the hands of "Horror Movie", as long as the decline rate does not exceed 30% next week, then the North American region will most likely receive a box office between 150 million and 180 million, depending on how long the popularity of the movie can be maintained, but it is very difficult to reach 180 million, let alone 200 million......

A small-budget movie can achieve such results, no matter who should be satisfied, but this makes Cheng Xiaoyu's mood unhappy, and the blinds behind him sitting in front of his desk reveal a trace of light that seems to be steaming, and the check pattern is reflected in his white shirt.....

Cheng Xiaoyu called Winston again, but no matter how you analyze it, the North American box office of "Horror Movie" exceeded 200 million, which is a small probability event, but it is not all bad news.

Three weeks after its release in North America, "Horror Movie" has been released in the United Kingdom, Australia, France, Germany and other box office cities, under the influence of the good reputation of North American audiences and the top box office, it received 23.17 million US dollars in the first week.

In the analysis of box office analyst James Wade, "Horror Movie" should be able to harvest about 100 million overseas box office in overseas regions except East Asia, where "Xichu" can get 80% of the box office account, deducting taxes and various channel fees, basically the shooting cost is guaranteed.......

And if Cheng Xiaoyu loses in the gambling agreement, the only place he can make money is the East Asian box office, but the scale of this movie is really a bit big, and if the radio and television masters don't cut half an hour, can they be allowed to release it? Cheng Xiaoyu is really a little skeptical, besides, there is a cultural gap in Huamei, and most of this "Horror Movie" is a stalk from American movies, and there is no large number of American movies, so I won't think it's funny.......

Therefore, Cheng Xiaoyu is not very confident in the performance of this film in East Asia, mainly in China.......

But at this time, what else can he do for this movie? It can be said that all he can do is to do "whispering water army", viral marketing, and the hit single "in.the.end...... In terms of publicity, he is also a little blind after Cheng Xiaoyu is finished, he can't just watch the box office of almost 200 million US dollars fall into the bag of "Universal", right? That kind of joke will make a big joke........

Cheng Xiaoyu thought carefully about the conventional propaganda methods, and there is another trick that he has not used, that is, to pull stars for the movie platform, in the era of mobile social networks, stars with a large number of fans and great appeal, sending a "whisper" at will will have a great impact on the box office of the movie, if there are many stars for the movie platform, the natural income will be greater.......

But Cheng Xiaoyu can only think about it, when he returns to Huaxia, he may have this appeal, but who will buy him in Hollywood?

He only knew half of the big stars in Hollywood, and that was Catherine Blanchett, and the reason why he said half was because Catherine Blanchett might not hang him at all, let alone stand for him.

But at this time, Cheng Xiaoyu had no other way, after thinking for a while, he boarded the "whisper" and searched for Catherine Blanchett, her page should be taken care of by herself, because it is almost full of life dynamics, and there is no publicity or advertising at all.

Cheng Xiaoyu turned a few pages, Catherine has more than 10 million fans, and the fan viscosity is quite high, because there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of replies under each "whisper", although it is not as many as some Chinese stars, it is also because of the large base of Chinese netizens, and it is already a first-line star to have such a high level of attention in the United States........

Cheng Xiaoyu thought for a while, and then casually searched for Staven Bell's "whispers", and after clicking on it, he was startled......

.......

Cheng Xiaoyu was not very confident that Catherine Blanchett would pay attention to him, so in order to prevent self-inflicted humiliation, he first tentatively sent her a text message and asked her what she was doing.

It was about half an hour before Catherine replied, "I'm in class at school, is there anything wrong?"

At this time, the filming of Catherine's "Texas Chainsaw Massacre 4" has been completed and entered post-production, in order to shorten the cycle, so the publicity and film shooting are carried out at the same time, so it does not affect the movie to be released at the end of the Christmas schedule, of course, the possibility of ticket bounce is not ruled out, but this kind of plasma movie that does not need too many special effects generally has no possibility of ticket bounce.......

Cheng Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, although he knew that he was a bit inferior to do this, but he couldn't care about it so much, so he could only say cheekily: "Miss Catherine, I have something to talk to, don't you know if it's convenient to meet?"

It took another half an hour for Catherine to reply, "Okay, I'm at the School of Cinematic Arts at the University of Southern California, call me when you arrive, we'll ..... the appointment."

Although Catherine replied very slowly, the answer was unexpectedly refreshing, which also surprised Cheng Xiaoyu, he originally prepared a rhetoric, but he didn't use it at all.

He also couldn't imagine that Catherine just wanted to take this opportunity to ask him for the audio source of "in.the.end", so he agreed, if it wasn't for the inconvenience of asking for the audio source on the phone, Cheng Xiaoyu could only get an answer when she texted her, "Is there anything you can't say on the phone?"

After all, although Catherine helped Cheng Xiaoyu, she didn't go with the purpose of getting married, and even Catherine herself may not be able to explain the complex motives and some coincidences.

Cheng Xiaoyu first called Norton Nelson, the paparazzi who had to answer any business, and told Norton what he needed him to do, Norton was quite excited, Cheng Xiaoyu was a very topical mysterious figure in Hollywood at the moment, and now he was tied up with Catherine Blanchett, which was quite valuable news.......

Countless Hollywood media are full of curiosity about the distribution agreement signed by "Xichu" and "Universal", but the two companies are secretive and can't find out any news, Norton knows that Cheng Xiaoyu can get on the line with Staven Bell, which should be the credit of Catherine Blanchett, but according to what he saw in Peter Kopla's studio that day, he felt that the relationship between Cheng Xiaoyu and Catherine was not an inseparable friend, not even a friend, and he really didn't know what Cheng Xiaoyu relied on to persuade Catherine......

But today it seems that all this can be solved, and for him this mystery is valuable news........

Cheng Xiaoyu opened the navigation and went straight to the School of Cinematic Arts of the University of Southern California, and when it comes to the University of Southern California (USC) in the United States, the first thing that comes to mind must be the School of Cinematic Arts.

That's right, the USC School of Cinematic Arts is the world's top school for cinematic arts. For many years, he has ranked No.1 in the national professional rankings in the United States, and he is definitely the big man in the film school.

has cultivated countless celebrities and superstars in the film and television industry, and it can't be cooler anymore. When it comes to the USC School of Cinematic Arts, most people look up to the university of their dreams.......

But it should have been a piece of cake for Catherine, because Staven Bell is a graduate of the Southern California Academy of Cinematic Arts, he is also an honorary alumnus, and the school also has a school building named after him, and a sound stage that he donated......

The University of Southern California is located in the heart of Los Angeles, but it has a large campus.

It was the first time for Cheng Xiaoyu to come to this prestigious university in the world film circle, and when he was not close, he would be a little disappointed to see the University of Southern California from afar, and he would feel that the style of this university was a bit rigid, with red bricks and red tiles, and rigid lines.

When he actually walked into this university, he felt that this oldest private university on the West Coast of the United States was restrained and solemn, and the campus was lush, with teaching buildings and libraries dominated by red brick Roman buildings.....

The students on campus are quite sports-loving, basically using bicycles and skateboards to get around, Cheng Xiaoyu parked the car in front of a large gymnasium, and just now Norton called Cheng Xiaoyu and made an appointment to meet him here.

At this time, Norton had not yet arrived, and the bored Cheng Xiaoyu looked at the introduction in front of the gymnasium, it turned out that USC was not only a film school, but also a university in the United States that won the number of Olympic gold medals.....

When Cheng Xiaoyu looked around, it didn't take long for Norton, who was driving a somewhat dilapidated Chevrolet sedan, to roll down the window and wave to him, wearing a peaked cap and sunglasses, beige cargo pants, and a blue and white plaid shirt, dressed like a typical American blue-collar worker, with a characteristic of being immediately submerged in the crowd......

After getting out of the car, Norton gave Cheng Xiaoyu a hug very warmly, and then said with reverence: "Mr. Cheng, you really impress me, I think the whole Hollywood, including Peter's stupid donkey who doesn't have long eyes, will pay the price for looking down on you........ I also contributed more than a dozen box office tickets to your movie, and I invited the whole family to watch it...... It's so exciting, so funny, I haven't laughed so much in years........"

Cheng Xiaoyu didn't take Norton's words seriously at all, just smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Norton...... It's my pleasure that you enjoyed this movie...... I need some of your professional skills today to give me some help...... I just said it on the phone."

"Of course, there is no problem with this, it is my highest criterion to improve the best quality service for employers....... After finishing speaking, Norton approached Cheng Xiaoyu again, then looked left and right at no one, and then said in a low voice: "Mr. Cheng, the whole Hollywood knows that you have signed a gambling agreement with Universal, can you tell me what the gambling line is?" Rest assured, I won't sue anyone...... Of course, if it's important, it doesn't matter if you don't talk about it......"

Of course, Cheng Xiaoyu wouldn't tell the truth, he just smiled, blinked and said, "Mr. Norton, I'll tell you the details of this later, but now I have to ask Miss Catherine out first......."

Norton shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, Mr. Cheng, but can you call me Mr. Norton? As awkward as it sounds, just call me Norton..... It's more intimate this way......"

Cheng Xiaoyu nodded and said, "Then I'll call Miss Catherine first, you wait and follow at the right distance, be careful not to be discovered......"

"Mr. Cheng, please don't question my professionalism...... I've been in this business for fifteen years, but you have to let me take valuable photographs, and if you're just chatting with Miss Catherine, there's no sensation in sending out such photos....... It's better to have some hot ......." Norton pulled out a camera with a gun handle from behind and held it up, making a shooting motion, this is his treasure, a modified Nikon D200, which can be said to be a super candid weapon.

Cheng Xiaoyu was also a little surprised to see such a weird shape of the camera, adding a butt to the camera was for the sake of stability, not deliberately funny, thinking of the request Norton had just made to him, he frowned and said: "That can only depend on your skills, I can borrow it appropriately, but you have to find a good shooting angle, I think you should also find a helper...... One person may not be able to cope with it......"

"Mr. Cheng, there is no need for ...... Believe my level, I can take photos that you are satisfied with by myself......" Norton quickly shook his head, and then said with a swear.

He has always been alone, never relying on helpers to take photos of various stars, and then sell them to major media, the most exaggerated time is when he squatted on the evidence of Hollywood star Fernande's cheating, he squatted for three months, and finally photographed Fernande's ironclad evidence of cheating on his wife, who is also a big star, Scarlett, and finally that set of photos sold for one million dollars, and he got one million dollars alone........ At this time, I am calling someone to come, don't I want to share a piece of the pie with him? How can I agree......

Cheng Xiaoyu took out his mobile phone and was about to call Catherine's number, and said, "Okay then! I believe you, you must not mess up with me....... "The less people know about this kind of thing, the better."

Norton plugged the camera back behind his back again, and then said very firmly: "Don't worry, Mr. Cheng, fifteen-year-old camera, quality assurance, even if you have nothing to do with Miss Catherine, I can help you shoot a real ambiguous ......" Now he didn't mention asking Cheng Xiaoyu to make a strong pose.....

The phone was quickly connected, and the two made an appointment to meet at the fountain in front of the film center building, Cheng Xiaoyu told Norton, and then asked a student for directions and walked over......

And Norton hung not far behind Cheng Xiaoyu, waiting for his meeting with Catherine Blanchett, the feeling of making big news by himself made Norton feel his heart racing, but he was not nervous, but an excitement to hunt prey.......
