On Monday, May 6, a new week arrived. There were two smaller films that were released first on this day, and they were avoiding the rush hour of the weekend. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, time is progressing day by day, and there is not a single movie in the cinema that can threaten "The Mummy 2". But the whole of Hollywood feels a sense of urgency that black clouds are pressing down on the city.

On the official website of the matrix, the bright red countdown box, and the hard advertisements in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Houston and other heavy cities, the countdown is also updated every morning in the morning, reminding all fans all the time that the time for "Fast &Furious" is coming!

In overseas markets, China, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom, Brazil, France and other countries and regions are also in full swing. The slogan for the movie, "The fourth work of the Oscar for Best Director, the only purely commercial blockbuster, speed and excitement, this summer, belongs to drag racing!" There is also a blood-red title that is very eye-catching: "Solemnly warn, for the safety of your life, please do not drive after watching this film!" ”

This kind of provocative headline party has attracted the rebellious mentality of rebellious youth, "Is it really that powerful?" It's just a movie. "But after all, the matrix's overseas propaganda ability is still somewhat inferior, except for the good publicity effect in various parts of Asia, other places are lackluster.

In the end, it depends on the performance of North America after the release of the movie, which will then drive the overseas market to set off a movie-watching boom.

On Thursday, May 8, on a warm sunny afternoon, the streets outside the Universal Theater in Los Angeles had already pulled up the fence early, and the red carpet was spread out fifty meters away. More than 2,000 fans with posters in their hands were already waiting on both sides. The car culture in the United States is very prevalent. This generation of young people is passionate about street racing. On the streets. As long as you have the speed, you have a qiē. Banknotes, beautiful girls, come as soon as they are called.

For this movie, which has been hyped for nearly a year, the audience's expectations could not be higher. Especially before the release, there was another wave of April Fool's Day monster-like publicity, and it also successfully seduced the participation of many big names in Hollywood, which once again made the popularity of this movie to a higher level.

After a while, the red carpet was finally lively.

The moderator began to appear. Then the main creators of the movie drove the sponsored luxury cars on the red carpet one after another. The money of the sports car sponsors of this movie is not spent casually, and the publicity that should be done still has to be done.

Paul Walker drives a shiny black Cadillac, Jordana drives a Porsche, and Michelle drives a Mercedes. When Megan walked out of a bright red Maserati sickle door with her long legs crossed, a crowd of fans outside screamed wildly, because the pose was so sexy, and the fans waiting at the scene today were no strangers to her. Megan's face was a little ruddy, which was exciting, she really didn't expect that she already had fans before a movie was released.

And after that. Chen Kun also made a handsome appearance, and the cheers were also not small.

Especially when Dwayne Johnson's heavily armored Knight XIV appeared in the face. The eyes of fans on both sides are about to protrude.

"Wow, wow, it's awesome, I finally saw the real car."

Reporters also began to take pictures like crazy, with Dwayne Johnson standing on the roof of an armored car in an exaggerated manner, playing cool, and clasping his arms to show off his bulging muscles.

"Please, you've stolen all of our limelight." Michelle joked at Johnson. The boulder spread his hands, looked like it was none of my business, and said with a smile: "The guy who really grabbed the camera hasn't appeared yet." ”

"Tank, tank ......"

Someone on the periphery suddenly shouted loudly, which immediately attracted the attention of all the audience, and a group of waiting fans craned their necks to look. The pressure on the security guards at the scene suddenly doubled, and they had to shout "Stay calm, don't crash into the guardrail." "I hope the fans will refrain from it.

It's really a tank, coming fast from a distance, but ......

"The situation is not good, the road is blocked!" Someone exclaimed.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and sure enough, a car happened to stop at the crossing, blocking the route of the tank. "Get out of the way of the car, out of the way of the tank." Some excited fans actually began to worry about the opening of the tank, fearing that the show would be ruined.

However, an unexpected scene appeared for them.

"Click!"

The tank turned its head abruptly, rushed directly into the private car, and rolled over directly from the roof of the private car with half a sideways body, and the heavy body directly crushed the private car into iron sheets, and then Shi Shiran rolled down from the other end. When stopping in front of the red carpet, the tank gun breech turned and suddenly aimed at the fans, provoking the fans who were not afraid of death to shout.

"Oh God, oh God, my heart disease, it's crazy!" "Wow, cool!! ”……

Vin Diesel climbed out of the narrow cockpit in front of the tank, he was too big, it was good to get in, he bent down and drove for a long time, the tank leg was a little numb, but when he came out, he actually stuck. The people who were disgusted with being stolen from him laughed out loud without conscience, pointing around him and not pulling him out, Vin Diesel helplessly spread his hands.

Fans also laughed when they saw this scene, what a bunch of funny guys.

In the end, it was Chen Kun and Tyrese who jumped on the tank and pulled him out, when another car came from a distance and drove unhurriedly. Seeing the boxy and domineering appearance, everyone knew who was coming.

Unique in the world, after making a car movie, he actually opened his own car company to grab business with other brands, and I don't know what other car giants think at the moment.

The only one who can do this kind of thing is the soul of this film, director Chen Tiandu.

His "matrix" appearance is really eye-catching, and there are few opportunities to make appearances, even with tanks and armored vehicles on the side, he still steals the show. Vin Diesel and the others were also very hot-eyed, and Dwayne Johnson walked over and patted the car cover very vigorously, but nothing happened.

"Chen, is this car really not for sale, at least order a new one for me?"

Chen Tiandu shook his head resolutely, "No way, the only one in the world!" ”

Everyone laughed and hugged each other on the red carpet, really like in a movie. It's like a family. Then all the main creators put out the poss. They all stood in front of their cars. For journalists to take pictures. Several actresses, with long legs crossed and half-snuggled in sports cars, turned the scene into a luxury car show.

In response to their poss, there were frantic shouts from thousands of fans on both sides.

There was also an undercover agent sent by Universal in the crowd, who was watching the release of "Fast and Furious" live, and then went back to make a report. Seeing this scene, he also muttered constantly. "This movie hasn't been released yet, is there really so many die-hard fans?"

The crowd walked up the red carpet and began to answer questions from reporters on both sides of the railing, as well as waving to enthusiastic fans chanting their names.

"Boulder, Vin Diesel, what did you do to Chen after the video went black?" An anxious reporter shouted loudly, which caused the surrounding reporters to burst into laughter.

The two big guys themselves thought it was very funny, and Dawn smiled, "What do you think, that's what?" ”

"Hey~~" Chen Tiandu happened to hear the tip of his ear, and protested dissatisfiedly. Facing the camera in a serious way, he explained: "They were joking, nothing happened. ”

"Daun. "Fast & Thrill" is going to fight "The Mummy 2", which movie do you prefer? Another reporter asked a sharp question, Chen Tiandu interjected again, grabbed the microphone and said: "I'm also curious about this question." ”

Jushi shook his head helplessly: "I belong here today, I enjoy the feeling of making a movie with my brothers very much, it's crazy, everyone will know what I said after watching the movie." ”

"Christmas Chan, 'Pearl Harbor' starring Kate Beckinsale is coming out next week." There was a clattering sound, the flash lights kept coming on, the reporters on the railing were staring at Chen Tiandu in a black suit and black tie, and a blonde white female reporter asked loudly, "What do you have to sue Sù Kate?" Have you talked about it? ”

"I hope they have a good result as well." Chen Tiandu nodded and smiled.

Another male reporter asked: "Need for Speed" will also be released next week, do you still think "Fast and Thrilling" can win big?" ”

"Hey man!" Chen Tiandu laughed loudly, and then pointed at the crazy fans, "You have to ask them this question first, dare to ask which movie has such crazy popularity before the first part of the series is released." ”

He spoke into the microphone, and most of the fans at the scene heard it clearly, and immediately responded to his more noisy shout: "Fast &Furious, ho ho ho ......"

Such a neat shout made the "Global Undercover" in the crowd sneer, "Won't it be all fans who bought it, did they rehearse before coming?" ”

As it gets darker, the outside of Universal Cinema turns from bustling to deserted, and all the stars, journalists, fans, and audiences enter the theater to watch the premiere. In the screening halls of 3124 theaters in North America, although not all of them are full, there are not many vacant seats, after all, the publicity momentum of this movie is so hot, and Chen Tiandu, who has just won the Oscar for Best Director, is in high spirits!

Plus the trailer is really wonderful and has attracted the attention of a large number of fans.

"Hurry up, Dad, the movie is almost over." In London, Emma Watson held a large bucket of popcorn in her hand and also dragged her father to the cinema together. She was followed by a little boy who was his younger brother.

Also calling "Daddy hurry up" is also in a theater in New York, Stallone has always loved his daughter the most, and his eldest daughter is the fan he doesn't like to see young people the most, so he can't help it, so he doesn't worry that she will follow her to watch the movie alone. In his family, only the eldest son is his big fan, which is a pity.

"Wow, are you Stallone? Can you take a picture together? A fan recognized him wearing a baseball cap and held up his camera and asked for a group photo. Stallone didn't think too much about it, and readily agreed. After taking the photo, the fan suddenly asked: "Are you here to watch "Fast and Thrilling"?" He raised the ticket in his hand, and the ticket stub read "Speed and Excitement".

“No！” Stallone flatly denied, "I'm here to see "The Mummy 2". ”

After Stallone left, the fan was so excited that he immediately called his friend, "Guess who I saw, Stallone, he actually held the movie ticket for "Fast and Thrilling", but said that he came to see "The Mummy 2", this duplicitous old guy." "Is there any evidence? "Of course, I took pictures. "Wow, hurry up and post it on the blog, you're going to be famous."

After a while, I saw that the big screen was back black, and the audience in the screening halls of 3,124 theaters in the United States slowly quieted down, and the screening officially began. (To be continued......)
