Chapter 564: Box Office Suppression

Ask for commuter passes and recommended tickets!

Although it is clear that this is not the awards season, and the film reviews of professional film critics have little to do with the actual market box office many times, Natalie returned to the hotel and thought of being called a middle-aged aunt by some film critics, and she couldn't sleep at all when she was depressed. Not as good as Kate Dylings' little actor? It's just ......

Natalie Portman made a decision in an instant to put pressure on Marvel Studios through agent Martin Miller and agency William Morris to prevent Kate Dailings from participating in the post-screening promotion of "Thor"!

It wasn't until the wee hours of the morning that Natalie Portman was just feeling a little sleepy when her phone rang suddenly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

She held back the impatience in her heart, glanced at the phone number, and frowned, but still connected, "Is there something wrong, Darren?" ”

The person who called was Darren Aronofsky, the director of "Black Swan".

"Is the kid alright?" A voice of concern sounded in the earpiece.

"Kid? Don't mention the kids to me! Natalie Portmanho got up from her bed, "I told you, it was my kid with Benjamin Millepie!" It has nothing to do with you! ”

Again, she emphasized, "That kid isn't yours!" ”

After saying that, Natalie Portman hung up the phone directly, but the last sentence had no confidence at all.

A few years ago, her conflict with Murphy Stanton directly affected her future, and in order to change this situation, she went back to Jerusalem to study, so as to curry favor with the Jewish forces in the circle, and finally returned to the mainstream of Hollywood little by little.

But Natalie Portman knew very well that in order to achieve the original goal, she had to win the Oscar for Best Actress, and under the planning of William Morris, she hooked up with Darren Aronofsky and successfully won the heroine of "Black Swan", and made Darren Aronofsky fascinated herself, saying something like what "Black Swan" was prepared for Natalie Portman ten years ago.

This is extremely powerful for her to win the award, but Natalie Portman discovers that Darren Aronofsky hooked up with her friend Mila Kunis, who is in the crew, and while tearing up with Mila Kunis, she uses the ultimate killer move to successfully conceive a child, allowing Darren Aronofsky to temporarily fall under control.

At the same time, she caught up with the famous ballet master Benjamin Millerpi, not only did the other party advocate for her as a professional, but the two also successfully got engaged to avoid the pregnancy becoming a scandal, but became a tool to win the favor of the Oscar judges.

In the end, she defeated a group of competitors and was successfully crowned Oscar-winning actress.

Of course, Natalie Portman will never admit this, even if there are a lot of rumors in the circle.

Looking back now, she is very complacent, the plan she personally formulated and successfully implemented is simply flawless, and if there is a suitable role to hit the Oscar for Best Actress in the future, she can get pregnant again.

The Oscar judges always have a good impression of pregnant women, but it is never difficult for her to spread her legs.

Thinking of her masterpiece, Natalie Portman is in a better mood, compared to her own Olympic strategy, Harvey Weinstein's public relations tactics can definitely be said to be simple and crude, and there is no technical content.

At this moment, the mobile phone rang again, Natalie Portman picked it up and connected it, listened to the people inside, and suddenly felt better!

"What is the reputation of a film critic?" Natalie Portman walked to the window and looked at the south hillside, "This is a summer commercial blockbuster, and the only thing that has a decisive effect is the box office!" ”

It was just a call from agent Martin Miller informing her of the latest advance box office results, and the exact stats are not yet out, but the approximate numbers are already available.

"Thor" grossed about $6.5 million in advance, much higher than "Chaos City's $3.4 million", and the gap between the two sides is still huge.

Natalie Portman's good mood was directly reflected in her face, she smiled and went to the wine cabinet and poured herself a glass of red wine, if you remember correctly, "Chaos City" is not even comparable to "Thor", and even the advance box office of "Fast and Furious 5", which was released last weekend.

In addition to these, Martin Miller also told her a piece of information that Walt Disney has made a certain estimate of the performance of "Thor" in the first weekend of North America based on this early box office performance, as long as there are no serious problems with the follow-up audience reputation, it is expected that the first-day box office of "Thor" will be around $28 million, and there is a high probability that the first-weekend box office will be $70 million!

According to this ratio, Natalie Portman also made an estimate of the box office of the first weekend of "City of Chaos", and the figures that came out made her smile.

$35 million! This is her most optimistic estimate, Murphy Stanton's new film......

With a production cost of $150 million and a box office of just over $30 million in the first week, Murphy Stanton will definitely make a big mistake.

On New York's Upper East Side, in the queen-sized bedroom on the top floor of Murphy's luxury apartment, poor Wonder Woman was hanging from two falling soft ropes with her arms outstretched, and was being brutally ravaged until she let out a high-pitched scream, and the Great Demon King, who was standing behind her, stopped sprinting.

Gal Gadot collapsed almost completely, leaning on Murphy's body, ripped open from his armor, revealing his waxed chest.

"It's been a long time," she whispered in Murphy's ear, ...... "it's been a long time." ”

Murphy bit her white ear lightly, "Do you want to try something else?" ”

Hearing this, Gal Gadot was a little tempted, but he knew that his current body had reached the limit, so he quickly shook his head, "Don't do it tonight, let's wait for the next time." ”

She turned her head to look to the left, and on an oak table on the left, the candle that had been used for fun was still burning, and under the light of the candle, the other tools piled up on the table exuded a strange feeling that made her afraid but itching.

Gal Gadot knows very well that from the initial role-playing to the current tool for fun, not only did she not reject it, but gradually let her body be developed, and she became more and more fond of and even obsessed with these games.

Her eyes swept over a few balls, and she instantly got goosebumps, maybe she could try these stoppers next time?

The two took a shower and took a long time before they returned to normal, Gal Gadot ignored the feeling of being a little hot in his chest, and didn't even wear clothes, so he sat down at the computer desk, opened his notebook, and entered his mailbox, just glanced at the latest email, and the previous excitement disappeared without a trace, replaced by a slightly sad expression.

"What's wrong?" Murphy draped a dressing gown over her curvy body, "Bad news? ”

"Very bad news."

Gal Gadot moved out of the way a little so that Murphy could see the whole screen and said, "'Chaos City' only grossed $3.4 million in North America in advance, which was suppressed by 'Thor'!" ”

Murphy glanced at it, not in a hurry, and asked, "What about Thor?" How many? ”

"About $6.5 million!" Gal Gadot grabbed his long, straight hair, "Nearly twice as many as ours." ”

She is no longer an outsider, she has been in the film industry for a long time, and knowing that such an early box office figure generally means the box office of tomorrow's first day and the first weekend box office of three days this weekend, "Thor" may have twice the box office performance of "City of Chaos", or even higher!

Such data is indeed not optimistic, and if this situation develops, the box office of "City of Chaos" will definitely fail miserably in the first weekend!

But Murphy is also well aware that this situation is not unexpected, and it is also a real reaction between original genre films and adapted films with an audience base.

"Any other emails?" Murphy asked again.

Gal Gadot knew what Murphy was asking and shook his head, "I haven't received it yet." ”

She looked at the time and said, "You go to sleep first, I'll wait here, and I'll call you when the mail arrives." ”

"You'd better go to sleep." Murphy looked at Gal Gadot's flushed chest, "You're tired, get some rest." ”

"I'm ......" Gal Gadot bit his lip slightly, "I'm not tired, what I just did just made me excited." ”

The prompt for the arrival of the new email suddenly sounded, and Gal Gadot ignored Murphy, picked up the mouse, quickly moved the pointer, and clicked on the new email from Twentieth Century Fox.

The email was sent by Carla Firth, a data that Twentieth Century Fox had just gotten its hands on, and it was a more reflective of the direction of a film's market.

Carla Firth clicked on the email and said to Murphy as she watched, "According to the latest statistics from Cinemascore, the audience score of 'City of Mayhem' is 'A+', and the public's satisfaction with the film in advance is more than 90%!" "Thor" had a 'b' rating from the theater audience, with only 66 percent of the audience in advance finding the film ...... wonderful."

Seeing this, Gal Gadot's heart that he had just mentioned was put down.

Murphy nodded lightly and didn't say much, because of the time, Cinemascore only had a rough count of the two films, and had not yet made a market prediction.

"Based on the accuracy of Cinemascore's past predictions." Gal Gadot analyzed by himself, "Our film may not be as good as "Thor" in the early stage, after all, this is an adaptation, but the stamina of "Thor" should be insufficient! ”

"Alright, let's sleep." Murphy pulled Gael Gadot up.

The two lay together, but didn't sleep immediately, especially Gal Gadot, leaning into Murphy's arms and flipping through his phone.

"It turns out that none of the above is false."

Looking at the unsightly descriptions above, she thought to herself, "Some people do enjoy these games. ”

She propped up her body and asked Murphy, "You bought the copyright of this novel, didn't you want to star in it yourself?" (To be continued.) )
