Oh roar - this is really bad, the reporters present immediately became a sensation, laughter and frolic immediately replaced the original professional quiet atmosphere, and even the crew members on the stage couldn't help but smile: this also shows that whether it is Jos, Carey, or Zachary's personality is not bad, after all, this is the premiere press conference of the movie, the first question is asked so badly, it has nothing to do with the movie, and the starring role of the main part, if the main creator is that kind of serious character, it is possible to turn his face on the spot.

What kind of new technology should be answered, the first few questions should be answered by name...... Reporters from authoritative media such as "The New York Times" and "The Hollywood Reporter" also had a sense of schadenfreude in addition to the excitement of "this is a big deal": this question is not impossible to ask, in the subsequent one-man interview session, or even in the second half of the press conference, it is okay to ask it in a joking tone, but it is too embarrassing as an opening question, and Jennifer is not right to answer it now - it is definitely not okay not to answer, turn around and reprimand the reporter, no matter how ' 'Deserving it' will ruin the atmosphere, but if you answer this question, it will also be disrespectful to the crew members. Without a quick on-the-spot reaction and excellent emotional intelligence, it's not so easy to pull this scene across.

"You're—" Jennifer laughed too, and she didn't see a hint of panic or unhappiness, at least on the surface.

"I'm Keith a reporter for Star." The young man said excitedly, looking so excited that he couldn't pay attention to the reactions of others.

"Okay, Guise, thank you so much for your interest in my personal life - of course, I understand that this is also the concern of a large part of your magazine's readers, and believe me, I used to enjoy reading this magazine." Jennifer lowered her voice, "Actually, I still like to watch it now." ”

Everyone laughed, and Jennifer continued, "But the reason I like to watch it now is because I can look at this news and say, 'Oh, there's such a thing?' Then give the person a call, 'Is what the magazine says true?' It's a great feeling, but what's even better is that you can see it in the magazine -- 'So this is happening to me?' It really adds a lot of fun to my life. ”

In the midst of an even louder laugh, Jennifer spread her hands, "So, um, of course I'll answer that question, although it has little to do with the launch, Josh was invited by me with my husband, and if you know Cesare, you'll know that Josh was one of his clients when he was an agent, and we have a strong connection between the two families, and we've been friends for many years." As Zachary wanted to do now, Josh had been focusing on stage shows for the last few years — and we really liked the actors, and Joss liked him too, so, yes, we brought Josh over. ”

This is a subtle warning, but polite enough to make one nod at Jennifer's reflexes: she is truly remarkable for being able to do this in just ten years. And the reporters around Guise did not let him continue to make a fool of himself, pulled him down, and did not let him continue to spoil the atmosphere of the press conference. - Jennifer, who respects reporters and answers even the most boring questions, they reciprocate the same respect.

"Jennifer," the question tacitly dismissed as the reporter sitting next to Keith picked up, "First of all, congratulations to you and Jos, and to everyone, it's a really great movie, and of course it's still too early to say, but I think it's going to be the most compelling film of the summer—or one of the most compelling films of the year." ”

"Thank you." Several of the main creators smiled, and the reporters agreed in agreement, and in the applause, the first question that attracted everyone's attention was asked, "And we all know that you predicted the box office very accurately half a year ago - it caused an uproar at the time, but in the end the data proves your vision, this time for "Codename Shero", have you ever made a similar prediction?" ”

As this question was asked, even Jos and Zachary showed expressions of great interest, and the eyes of the audience were focused on Jenny, which also made her fully feel what it means to be 'self-inflicted, not to live': when predicting the box office at the press conference of "Avatar", just thinking about the risks was far less than the possible benefits - even if she didn't get the box office, it was nothing more than a gaffe, and being ridiculed for a period of time was just that, no one would hold on to it, but what she didn't expect was that After the prediction is accurate, this will definitely become a stalk among reporters, and because of his own statement at the time, there is also a set of theories about the prediction of "Avatar", and now if you want to refuse to respond, you have to weigh it, and you must not anger the reporter, lest the media will not cooperate in the follow-up publicity, and in the end, it is still her, the main producer, who extinguishes the fire.

"Well, to say I didn't anticipate this question would be false," she said with a laugh, "but I think this kind of thing should be about the same as predicting once, predicting twice -- it feels like it's a game of business for a box office forecaster."

"Hahaha." Her joke caused a burst of laughter, but the reporters didn't let her go, "Just give a roughly numerical range, and don't require it to be accurate to a single digit." ”

It looks like Tai Chi can't go on...... Jenny couldn't help but glance at Cesare beside her, and it was not without a hint: for the box office of "Codename Shero", Big Dream and Warner must have an internal expected goal, and its birth is also the result of research, not a simple ideal value, but without the endorsement of Goldfinger, it is indeed difficult for her to make this decision whether to disclose this number. - This is not quite the same as "The Devil Wears Prada" and "A Week with Monroe", those movies have at least high-quality IP as the original work, and at the same time have a good box office basis, and even the scale of the global box office, Jenny has a vague impression, for "Codename Shero", after a few weeks in Yosemite, she can't say how scared she is, but how confident she is, it's also fake, no matter what the result of this sentence is, she always has a kind of stage fright, unwilling to establish such a high box office expectations, It's the same for the public and for yourself.

The only thing the world could understand about her entanglement was Cesare, and after receiving her plea for help, there seemed to be an imperceptible smile on his commercial happy expression, which made Jenny a little depressed - she always felt as if she was being laughed at again...... However, Cesare then nodded affirmatively: he was still confident in the quality of Codename Shero.

"OK, okay, I'll admit it, I lost." With one less reason to escape, Jenny felt that she had no way out, she took a deep breath imperceptibly and smiled at the reporters in the audience, "You won, the second and the last, okay?" Predicting it before it is released -- yes, the company is quite optimistic about the future of the film, and we internally believe that it should not lose money globally-"

"Boo-" Many reporters who knew her well and who were not at the premiere for the first time booed and jokingly expressed their dissatisfaction, "If even such a movie will lose money, then the movie theater can just close its doors - if even the movie you act in will lose money, our faith in Hollywood will be directly finished-"

"Hahaha, ok, ok, but it should be taken into account that not losing money means at least 600 million global box office - this is an industry practice, and according to Da Meng's estimates, the ideal score of "Codename SHERO" in the world will not exceed 1.5 billion, in fact, because her theme is relatively rare, and the selling point in the visual organ is not as good as "Avatar", so 1.5 billion I think is still a relatively high number, for me, I will set my expectation range between 8 and 1.2 billion in the world, I think that's a reasonable prediction. Jenny shrugged, "Sorry for not being able to give you a bigger news, but there will only be one "Avatar", 3D is not the ultimate answer to everything, and the film industry will not be able to fully enter the 2 billion era at once." ”

This pragmatic and sincere answer finally satisfied the reporters, and the press conference was completely on the right track, and one after another in-depth questions were asked. "Is this also your box office estimate for 3D movies in the post-Avatar era? Up to 1.2 billion? ”

"If the subject matter is popular enough and the marketing investment is also very large, maybe it can go up to 1.5 billion or even more, but in general, for a 3D masterpiece with a good reputation, 1.2 billion should be an appropriate number."

For a 3D masterpiece with a good reputation, 1.2 billion is a suitable number - this sentence is compared with Jenny's previous prediction, in fact, it has made clear Da Meng's expectations and positioning for "Codename SHERO", this female superhero movie, Da Meng treats it as a male superhero movie, and it is a very good one. When Jenny said it, she was actually expected to be opposed, or at least questioned and disagreed: unpopular themes, only one female lead actor with box office appeal, and a new IP, these are all weaknesses of "Codename Shero", and they cannot be overcome by the excellent quality of the movie itself. It can even be said that even Jenny's movie, if the quality is not too high, the goal of 1.2 billion is pure fool's dream......

However, the faces of the audience have not changed in the slightest, in this team of hundreds of reporters, photographers, and videographers, Jenny really did not see any disapproval from anyone - everyone seemed to agree with her definition, they were all convinced of the quality of "Codename Shero", no one thought she was exaggerating, yes, she could see that the film had conquered journalists, just as it conquered ordinary audiences, and she and Joss and Zachary really created a masterpiece......

Her heart was beating faster again, and the feeling of happiness that was so happy that her heart was full appeared again - before each movie was released, she would have a slight anxiety, but as time went on, she was more and more able to deal with it calmly, in fact, this indifference, that is, in the bottom of her heart, she separated the film from herself, lowered her expectations, and lowered her emotional connection...... In previous films, this was no longer a difficult task. But "Codename Shero" is different, this one is made from scratch, it is really a story that she and Joss polished and created little by little, this whole grand world -

She had already felt this unique satisfaction and happiness at the thank-you ceremony just now, and now, Jenny has clearly experienced the attraction of "Codename Shero": at this time, the attraction of "Life Wandering" does not seem to be so strong, and seeing the world she has created, even these tricky professionals can conquer, this sense of power is really more pure than when she won the Oscar......

After this focus question was answered in good faith, the rhythm of the press conference was officially on track, and Cesare became the second person to be cared for. "The scale of marketing investment in "Codename Shero" is not at the level of "Avatar", and it can't even be said to be very large, is there any consideration behind this that the distribution company hides?"

"I want to buy the advertising time before the Super Bowl, this is not a small amount of money - hahaha, but we think 3D is a very good selling point, Jennifer herself also has a strong box office appeal, there is a formula at work here, it is not that the bigger the publicity, the better the box office, at least under the conditions of "Codename Shero", word of mouth is the key."

"Believe me, the word of mouth will be very good, this is really a good movie, this is a question for Joss - Jos, this is your first time directing a 200 million-level movie, what do you think?"

"In fact, because most of the budget is spent on special effects, most of which are green screen shots, it's not that different from the filming of 'Out of Serenity', and you still have to worry about running out of money, because no matter how big the budget is, the special effects still cost the same money."

"Zachary, this is your first time working with J.J.? And, of course, Jos, how was the whole filming going? ”

"I was very nervous, because you know, there were a lot of martial arts scenes in this movie, and when I was in the group on the first day, I saw J.J. and the boxer practicing, and I felt at the time -- you know, I lost 20 pounds for this role, so to speak, very thin, so, when I was filming the final fight scene with her, I was really afraid of being knocked down by her fists, you have to know that J.J. was very serious once she got into the play, and her fists were really powerful."

"Cesare, this is the first work to be released simultaneously worldwide by Big Dream Films, does this mean that Big Dream has entered the next stage?"

"I think it's a bit of an exaggeration to say that, but it's true that after the last few years of brewing, Big Dream Distribution now has the ability to release simultaneously around the world, and the film will be released in most countries around the world in July......"

The distribution is done by Big Dream, and the production is also led by Big Dream. Oronte can only occasionally get one or two questions, and they should all be friendly questions - in a normal press conference, it is easy to see whether the questions have been discussed in advance, such as "how do you feel about the cooperation between Warner and Big Dream this time", such as "how do you feel about the cooperation between Warner and Big Dream this time", which is purely for Warner's existence, ordinary reporters are unlikely to be interested, and the questions they are really interested in are often more acute.

"'Codename Shero' gives the feeling that this movie is very ambitious, and Kelly. Johnson is not just a movie character, but also a comic book character or even a fiction character, will she join DC? Or the Marvel Universe? ”

This issue is indeed quite sensitive, not only the reporters, but even Carrey looked at Jenny, Jenny groaned for a moment - her heart was still a little beating, announcing her prediction of the box office, announcing sequels, peripherals, and derivatives, which are all manifestations of considerable confidence in the box office, and the more you talk at this time, the more chips you will put on the side of 'box office success', and if the box office is not satisfactory, the more ridicule she will receive...... How to answer this question actually depends on one point: how confident is she in this movie?

Is this film, which is almost entirely controlled by her on key issues, a good movie?

It's not relying on Goldfinger, it's completely on her own - her talent, her production ability, her understanding and prediction of movies, is the movie she makes a good movie?

She really ...... Do you have this talent, do you have this ability?

As Chen Zhen, she couldn't get an audition by her own ability in the past. Jefferson, relying on a golden finger and hard work - the efforts that anyone can put in, has reached this point, and her ability has been overestimated and even deified, but from a certain point of view, she is just another charlatan, really...... Is there such a real talent to learn?

Can she really create a movie with a box office of more than 1 billion and a strong reputation?

Jenny couldn't help but look at Cesare again - the only person who knew her in the world, and the only one who knew the truth, she wanted to see a hint of disapproval, or even just a hint of a subtle smile on his face, and she wanted to see his fair evaluation, she guessed that now that he knew almost everything, but still didn't know anything about the show space, he still had a fair answer to this question: "Codename Shero" really had little to do with her acting skills, At least not the kind of role that is very challenging, and aside from the aura given by the outside world, in the field of filmmaking, Cesare should be able to answer this question - Jeanne as a producer. Jefferson, is it possible to make a successful movie? Do you have what it takes to be at the top of the industry and play the best games?

Without the slightest doubt, without the slightest uneasiness, as Cesare had always shown, he was so natural, as if she really had such talent, such ability, such talent—as if he had absolute confidence in her, and Cesare gave her a somewhat urging look, motioning for her to hurry up and answer: she had been silent for too long.

This...... It's a good movie, and when she looks at the demos, her aesthetic tells her that the audience, the critics, the journalists, the directors, everyone's reaction tells her that "Codename Shero" is really a good movie, and she really did it - only until now, she still can't believe it: she can really be so confident, she really has this ability, she really has ......

Taking a deep breath, Jenny held back a huge feeling of dizziness and replied calmly and forcefully. "Yes, we are very confident in the potential of this series, and as I believe you have guessed, this film will make a sequel - and of course, the related comics and animations will also start production in the near future, this should be a stand-alone series, run by Big Dream's affiliated studios, and will not consider joining the DC Universe or the Marvel Universe for the time being......"

There was a low commotion, and Jenny gasped softly—like a snorkel suddenly emerging out of the water, and the sound of the wind and waves filled the world with a sudden noise, and she was a little dizzy, but she also began to gradually try to accept reality-

Maybe ...... "Codename Shero" will really be one of the best and most memorable films of the year, maybe she can really deserve a little bit of the fame she has now, maybe, maybe she really has such talent.
