"What happened?"
Because he was woken up, Stan? Li's mind was not very clear, but the various chaotic sounds that kept sounding outside still made him open the door and walk out, and followed the direction from which the sound came from and entered the hall where the company's front desk was located.

Just walked into the hall, Stan? Lee only saw all the Marvel staff, including Kevin? Feige and Avi? Arad almost looked like he was going crazy, and before he could figure out anything, he heard a bucket of spray flowers being twisted nearby, and countless streamers falling on his head.
Don't......
Stan? Lee's mind was already clear, and he immediately asked in front of him in a loud voice, "Kevin, did you get the box office statistics for the midnight show last night?" ”
"Got it! Got it! ”
Don't wait for Kevin? Feige replied, and a young man nearby shouted, "$10.26 million!" "Iron Man" is on a solid track! Stan, we really made it! ”
"yes, we made it!"
Countless jumble voices echoed the excitement, madness, and celebration of these people who have worked hard for Iron Man and Marvel Studios for years, and they fully deserve their reward.
Stan? Lee wasn't too excited, just let out a long breath, and all the efforts that the entire Marvel had put in for it finally paid off.
Outsiders only see the good market response and box office figures of "Iron Man", and a few people know what efforts Marvel Comics and Marvel Studios have made so far after the genius director proposed that Marvel formulate a big universe plan, and what kind of pressure they have taken on in recent years.
Now, it's finally harvest time!
Although the film's crucial first weekend has only just begun, there is almost no slippage in the midnight show compared to the early screening, which is enough to prove that "Iron Man" will draw a solid chart. Rosenberg's past films also bear this out.
After all, from last night to now, the positive reviews have completely presented an overwhelming advantage. CinemaScore has a 94% positive rating from the audience, with an average audience score of A+......
These are not the scores of professional film critics who have nothing to do with the market at all, but the most direct audience reaction, and they are also the guarantee of the strong box office trend of "Iron Man".
After several years of preparation. Marvel Studios clearly saw that success had arrived, and the whole company was in a state of excitement.
Compared to Marvel Studios, Scarlett was also happy after seeing the box office data of the midnight show, but not so excited and excited, in her eyes. This success is a given, and if Duke's film can't be successful? It is estimated that the films released in Hollywood's summer vacation will basically encounter a cold reception from the market.
She has seen this kind of success too much in the past ten years, and it can no longer arouse excitement and excitement, even if it is closely related to her.
After breakfast, she drove Duke to Warner Studios in a sports car, and then rushed to Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, where she met Rachel, who had been scheduled yesterday? McAdams, the two of them turned around in some of the most famous fashion stores here.
Black Widow and Pepper appear at the same time, which soon attracts reporters and paparazzi, Scarlett and Rachel? McAdams is also not a newcomer to Hollywood. As long as those nasty guys don't come and bother them directly, they basically ignore their existence.
These two people are both good at acting, and from the perspective of the paparazzi, they are completely sisterly.
Rachel in particular? McAdams, the smile on her face was extraordinarily bright, and it seemed to be the same as that of Scarlett? Johnson's friendship couldn't be better.
She also got the relevant box office statistics, and she also knew that "Iron Man" must be a box office bomb movie, if there were no accidents. All the main actors, including her, will take a big step forward in their careers.
However, even if there is progress in the career, there is a difference.
From last night to this morning. Rachel? McAdams has been paying attention to the relevant comments in the media, and as she expected, Robert Jr. Donnie and Scarlett? Johnson received the most praise, and she, the heroine, fell to the same as Don? Cheadle's black actor-like status.
No one is willing to be reduced to someone else's supporting role, especially since she is also the heroine of the film.
"Let's go to the coffee shop and sit for a while. Scarlett? ”
Passing by a coffee shop, Rachel? McAdams suggested, "Take a break and go shopping." ”
"Okay." Scarlett had no intention of refusing at all.
In any case, it will not be a very comfortable thing to be surrounded by so many candid paparazzi.
Before entering the coffee shop, Rachel? McAdamster bought a copy of the Los Angeles Times, pushed open the glass door, found a relatively secluded seat, and sat on either side of Scarlett.
"They're not dead yet."
After ordering coffee, Rachel? McAdams pointed to the paparazzi who were still wandering outside through the glass window, and said, "Do you want to follow us for a day?" ”
Scarlett said nonchalantly, "Ignore them." ”
"The response to the film has been so good." Rachel? McAdams nodded, "They're definitely not going to let us go easily." ”
In her heart, she doesn't think this is a bad thing at all, she used to need to take the initiative to contact the media to engage in street photography, since she starred in Duke? After Rosenberg's film, it was all reporters and paparazzi who chased her to shoot.
There is media attention, there is exposure, Rachel? McAdams is well aware of this truth, and from the treatment he enjoys now, he can also see the benefits of working with super directors.
Rachel? Of course, McAdams wants to continue working together, after all, the benefits she has gained from "Iron Man" have not lived up to expectations at all so far.
"I heard that Duke has a series of production plans for the next few years?" She asked casually as she chatted.
Scarlett seemed to be idle talk, "I think there is." ”
Eyes flashed, Rachel? McAdams added, "Will you continue to work with him?" ”
"I don't know what he has planned." Scarlett was telling the truth, "I don't care if he needs it." ”
Rachel? McAdams knew the importance of connections, decided to be long-term, took the initiative to change the subject, talked about "Iron Man", and after a few words, opened the "Los Angeles Times" that she had already read this morning.
"Here's a review of Iron Man!" Her tone was full of surprise, as if she had just discovered it, "It's the headline on the front page of the entertainment section." ”
"Really?" Scarlett looked very interested, "I came out early today, and I haven't read the comments yet." ”
Thought about it for a moment, Rachel? McAdams said, "I haven't read it either, so I might as well read it to you." ”
The two of them are intimate like best friends.
"Duke? The emergence of "Iron Man" directed by Rosenberg has subverted our common understanding of comic book heroes. In Tony? Before Stark, no mainstream comic book hero had such a high-profile personality. Including Superman's Clark? Kent, Batman's Bruce? Wayne, Spider-Man's Peter? Parker and others have two identities of 'hero' and 'ordinary person', and they do everything possible to cover them up. ”
"But Tony? Stark is the opposite, as an ordinary person, he is a genius, a rich man, a darling of the spotlight, and he is not shy about the identity of "Iron Man", and the "i.am." sentence at the press conference at the end of the film is a high-profile declaration of the public birth of superheroes. ”
"The setting of Iron Man is very much in line with some of the qualities and needs of our time. Cool, golden, and exposed, for a considerable part of the younger generation of fans, such an image is undoubtedly more attractive than those cautious and sneaky superheroes. ”
"At the same time, we can also see that there is another level of effort in Iron Man. Compared with Superman's talent, Spider-Man's special abilities, and Batman's technology team, the rise of Iron Man comes more from Tony? Stark's genius and hard work. From the birth of the Iron Armor to the gradual correction and improvement, it is completely Tony's personal hand. ”
"The release of this "Iron Man", Duke? Rosenberg brought more than just an alternative superhero, he also brought more than an alternative superhero? Downey and Marvel Comics bring a whole new picture. ”
"In a sense, Tony? Stark is Robert Jr. too? Donnie's Shadow. Downey became famous early, but drugs, guns, and imprisonment consumed a lot of his good times, but fortunately he met Duke? Rosenberg, and took the opportunity of "Iron Man" to return to people's vision with a new positive image. ”
"Iron Man is both Downey's redemption and a milestone for Marvel. It is not difficult for those who have watched the film to find that Marvel has a series of plans, the successful business of "Iron Man", Duke? Rosenberg has opened a new situation for Marvel, and it is foreseeable that from now until long in the future, the big screen will usher in a big era of Marvel superheroes. ”
Read this, Rachel? McAdams frowned slightly, and she realized one more thing she had overlooked.
Throughout the series, Pepo? The wave is just a vase, even if he continues to play later, it is impossible to change his status, and the other party's Natasha? Normanoff isn't just a vase, if the inference is correct, she's not just a member of the Avengers, she's a key figure.
Rachel? McAdams was unbalanced again, but she was able to grasp her mentality, and after a slight adjustment, she stood up and proposed, "Shall we go to Chanel?" ”
Scarlett is like a sweet girl who is not very assertive, without any objection, she just grabbed her handbag and walked to Rachel? McAdams, "Hurry up, there are still a lot of shops you haven't visited?" ”
The two walked along Rodeo Avenue and passed near a theater, and when they took a special look, the huge poster of "Iron Man" in front of the theater was quite attractive. (To be continued.) )
