Chapter 127: The Center
When the movie freezes when Reese stands on the stage of Harvard's commencement lecture and smiles at Daniel, everyone applauds enthusiastically, and the scene is much warmer than everyone expected.
It seems that after dissecting the "unrealistic" expectations, this film should be done well in its duty.
Especially those female high school students, the applause was quite enthusiastic.
Juan, an investigator at Mountain Eagle, stood at the door of the end to collect feedback.
Each person invited to the film was grouped into categories based on general audiences, critics, journalists, and their gender and age, and Juan now wanted some subjective impressions.
Juan was in charge of the female high school students, who were in high spirits.
"Hi, hello."
Juan chose a few groups of four girls.
"May I ask, how about the movie, what grade do you think ABCD can be given by adding or subtracting? What impressed you the most? Can you say it first? What's your name? β
"My name is Stina, and I think the movie is unexpectedly good, it's funny, and Emmett is really moving. There's also a little bit of inspirational about the story, and what's even better is that you don't feel preachy at all. I feel like it did surprise me. For this, I give it an A+. β
"This is the highest level. What do you think, beauty? Juan handed the microphone to another brown-haired girl.
"My name is Ceci, and Stina said a lot of what I wanted to say, but I want to emphasize that Daniel acted very well, full of sense of memory and contribution in a women's movie, especially in terms of acting, he was really an Oscar-level actor. However, because Reese's acting skills are still a bit thin, I can only rate it as A. β
Juan smiled and took back the recording microphone, "You're a fan of Daniel, aren't you?" β
"Before that I was just a fan of him, but from now on I can be called a movie fan."
"You haven't seen his movies before?"
"I've only recently started admiring him."
The four girls all have quite good reviews of the movie, three A's and one A+.
After MGM collected the opinions on the premiere, it found that the situation was optimistic, and the general investigation was done by a third party, and the theater chain would also participate in it, so the premiere would directly affect the number of screens given by the theater chain.
Among the main creative staff, screenwriter Amanda's mood may be the most complicated, because of Daniel's participation, she had to revise the script, add Emmett's scenes and settings, and the original just a bland and boring heroine "plug-in" has become a childhood sweetheart genius full of boyfriend charm. This is far from her original design, and Amy, played by Reese, will definitely be partially obscured. On the one hand, I hope that the market and fans will give these big companies and well-known actors a head start, and on the other hand, I also hope that this can become a step forward for her own career and a stepping stone to the road of well-known screenwriters.
Judging by the feedback, the former hope is bankrupt, the new setting and Emmett have received quite a bit of praise, and the latter hope is becoming more and more likely.
MGM's internal box office forecast has risen again and again, from 50 million hopes to 50 million guarantees, and then to 80 million overestimates, and now 80 million is a serious goal.
Yes, now they have Daniel, his first work after winning the Oscar, and as Peter Jackson caters to the market's interest in Legolas, Daniel's reputation as the "Elf Prince" has spread widely, and many people who are not even Daniel's fans don't mind spending some money to see the Elf Prince - the "Elf Incident" was pulled out to fry cold rice, and the coverage of this event covered the unexpected crowd of moviegoers, after all, this is a mysterious event, like the Loch Ness Monster and UFOs.
Considering Daniel's current ability to attract gold, MGM's prediction does make some sense.

"I knew it, I knew it."
Los Angeles, Reese Witherspoon's home.
This girl with a sweet smile is now a lot of popularity, and with the release of the movie, she is bound to usher in a peak in her career. But she didn't look particularly happy now, and the twisted pillow was choking on her brightness.
Agent Davis had a headache.
"Reese, I don't think you can think too much, if it was Luke Wilson starring, this movie wouldn't have the attention it has now."
"I understand, I understand." Reese's eyes were full of unwillingness and anger, "But at least the center is me, not the male protagonist, oh my God, the male protagonist, when I first saw the script, I was still wondering, who is the male protagonist Werner or Emmett, they don't have any sense of zΓ i at all, now what?" If you look at the reports, is our PR a-eating business? β
Davis didn't expect this scene either, and the popularity of the two sides was not on the same level at the time, Daniel, who had just taken over "The Lord of the Rings" and owned "Gladiator", has been an Internet darling, and no one has been beating it so far, even in the traditional media, his news has appeared from time to time. However, the gap between the two sides is not as big as Cheng DΓΉ, which makes people desperate, and the setting of the script is very beneficial to Reese, she is the absolute center, so the gap at that time will not damage Reese's interests. But now it's completely different, Daniel actually won the Oscar, and Legolas has gained him an astounding popularity, Reese can't compare to him at all.
In the media coverage after the premiere, Daniel actually suppressed Reese and became the center of the report, which made her unhappy anyway.
"Reese, there's no point in us being angry now, you know? We should take this opportunity, you are the absolute protagonist, once the film achieves results, the resume is yours, not Daniel's, no one will remember who reported more in the media, they will only look at the rankings, the number one on the poster-"
Davis stopped abruptly, yes, the poster was redesigned, and the two were now side by side, one in the upper left corner and one in the lower right corner, and they couldn't tell the difference.
"In any case, if the movie is a big hit, you will be the biggest beneficiary."
Reese was silent for a long time before she reluctantly nodded.
But Davis clearly looked up to the woman's cautious eye.
On the eve of the film's release, Entertainment Weekly, Daniel's old rival, had some cooperation, but the relationship between the two sides had not improved significantly, and it is still the primary platform for others to attack Daniel.
"Did Daniel make or ruin Legally Blonde?"
The headline of the report was sensational, and Daniel was not surprised by this, Daniel rose too fast, and there were always some unpleasant people who would attack him.
