"Ladies and gentlemen, today is "Either Become a God? The premiere of "Die or Die" is also the premiere of "Valentine's Day", according to the current form, these two films have their own advantages. "Die or Die" has been widely praised by the media, and even some media say that this movie is the most exciting one of the "Source Code" series of movies, which has surpassed "Source Code", and the current media score is also very high, with a praise rate of 79% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is only one step away from Nolan's "Batman: The Mystery of the Shadow" with a praise rate of 86%, on the media scoring network, 26 of the 33 major media have given extremely high evaluations, and only 7 media think that this movie fails; And "Valentine's Day" ...... I'm sorry, I have to say I'm sorry, because I haven't seen this movie and don't know whether it's good or bad, so I can only speak according to the facts. In fact, the praise rate of "Valentine's Day" on Rotten Tomatoes is only 16%, and only 5 companies have given a passing score above the passing mark on the media rating network, which is indeed a new low for Julia Roberts since she started filming, but fortunately, it is said that she only left the country for six minutes in the movie. ”

When the reporter was in full swing at the door of the cinema to introduce the pros and cons of the two films, MGM's car parked at the door of the theater, today is the day when Shao Yingying took Andrew Lincoln, Manu Bennett and others to attend the premiere press conference, after the press conference, the movie will have its world premiere, and even Huaxia has the premiere of Xiangjiang and Baodao, at this time Cheng Long and Fan Yuyi are running back and forth between these two places, because the broadcast time of these two places has been adjusted by an hour. Just enough for them to catch the premiere.

"Shao, what are your expectations for this movie?"

"Andrew, I heard that you're going to the big screen and you're going to quit 'The Walking Dead'. Is there such a thing? ”

"Manu, will you quit Spartacus like Andrew?"

The media couldn't wait when they showed up, and Shao Yingying smiled when he heard the questions, and his trick worked. After the peace, the media is not grouping against themselves, they are more interested in the topics that ordinary fans and TV series fans are most interested in, such as "The Walking Dead" and "Spartacus" Whether there will be a change of actors. It's not that you Shao Yingying has the confidence to overturn the all-star cast of "Valentine's Day", and he is anxious to provoke you to fight with the old director Gary Marshall.

"Shao!"

Entering the venue of the press conference, Shao Yingying heard Harry Sloan's shout. As he got closer, Harry Sloane unexpectedly reflected a layer of sweat on his forehead in the sunlight.

"Harry, are you alright? If something happens you should go to the hospital, not here. Shao Yingying was worried about Harry's health. He's not just his friend. At the same time, it is also an important pillar of MGM's publicity.

Harry shook his head and said, "Shao, I'm a little nervous, nervous, and have some stomach pain. Believe me, it's okay, it's not very strict, I'll have to keep an eye on it at the premiere. Otherwise, I'll take it as a bad premonition. ”

Shao Yingying was startled when he heard Harry Sloan's words, in fact, he was the one who was a little nervous. However, he has been immersed in acting all the year round, and he can completely prevent anyone from seeing it, and now that these words are spoken by Harry Sloane, he always feels a little like Harry Sloan is possessed by the White Dragon King, and his words are full of mysteries.

"Then, you take a break next to me, and if anything happens, tell me in time...... No, if you feel like you can't take it anymore, go to the hospital right away, I'll call the driver right now and ask him to stay by your side. ”

Looking at Harry Sloane's state, Shao Yingying called the driver up and arranged everything before turning around to attend the press conference.

Fortunately, this press conference went very smoothly, Shao Yingying's jokes with various media showed his ridicule style in China, and after bursts of laughter came from the scene, he played a movie ticket rush in the theater ticket purchase hall without any strange tricks, and easily coped with the press conference. At this press conference, even the media asked, 'Are you confident that you can beat Valentine's Day, which was released at the same time?' This kind of topic, after Shao Yingying changed the topic to express his respect for the old director Gary Marshall, no one asked with dead eyes, everyone knows that no director will seriously answer you to this kind of question, if you ask him if he has the confidence to surpass the box office of his last work, maybe Shao Yingying can still say two words, but will the media ask? Isn't that a slap in the face after reconciliation? They wish everyone had forgotten about it.

At the end of the premiere press conference, Shao Yingying's driver was already waiting for him at the door of the press conference, and before he could ask about Harry Sloane's situation, the driver took the lead and said: "Mr. Shao, Mr. Harry went back to the company first, he said that he would not go to the hospital at all, and he was full of energy and said that he was fine, and he wanted to go back to the box office, and I couldn't kidnap him, so I could only send him back to the company first." ”

The driver looked helpless, as if he had messed up a very simple task.

The only thing Shao Yingying could do was to reach over in the car and pat the driver's shoulder, and then said lightly: "It's okay." ”

Back at the company, Shao Yingying immediately felt Harry Sloan's office, how could Harry sitting in the office still look a little sick, the whole person sat in front of the computer grinning and concentrated on the Internet looking for information about "Become a God?" Die or Die", which was the only thing he could do when the box office was not yet out.

"Shao, you came back just in time, some fans said that the Shentai we created with special effects is amazing, the Shentai like white jade in the dark universe is desirable, the giant god holding the scepter has eyes like the size of a planet The proportions make people believe that he is the ruler of the universe, and the black shadows on the Shentai, all of them are full of mysterious atmosphere, they want to know who the people except for a few protagonists are, why they were chosen, and why they became gods."

Faced with Harry-Sloan's relay, Shao Yingying swallowed back the words he wanted to ask about Harry's physical condition, and asked puzzledly: "Why did the audience send out reviews before the movie was finished?" ”

Harry Sloan turned his head to look at Shao Yingying and asked suspiciously, "Don't you have a mobile phone?" ”

Mobile Internet access!

Shao Yingying was really busy and dizzy, and he actually asked such an idiotic question.

So he resolved the embarrassment and asked, "How is the box office situation now?" ”

Harry Sloan shook his head and said, "We'll have to wait, it's not even an hour yet, and the box office should be marked on the hour." ”

After a long time, Harry Sloan closed the page where he was viewing the audience's movie reviews, and when he found the box office statistics website and opened it, Shao Yingying saw a completely different format from the previous one, which marked two sets of numbers jù for Domestic and Foreign, where the value of Domestic box office jù was 14,625,000.

Harry Sloan found that Shao Yingying's face looked at himself with a very strange expression and guessed that Shao Yingxing's current English level is only limited to listening and speaking, and there is still a barrier to reading words, so he explained: "Dominant is the domestic box office, Foreign is the foreign box office, and it is currently the first hourly box office, and the number jù has not been divided yet, so there is only the total number, and tomorrow there will be box office results in various regions of the United States and the box office results of theaters; As for Foreign, it will take a day later, but the feedback is more detailed. ”

"Harry, you mean, our movie has only premiered for more than an hour, and the box office has already reached 14,625,000 at the premiere?"

"How is it possible, if the box office results can reach this value within one hour of the premiere, we can have a box office of more than 100 million in one day, and a movie can get at least 3 billion ...... in the North American market alone" Harry Sloan smiled bitterly: "This is a relatively general value, including the movie tickets extracted in the online pre-sale and the movie tickets sold in the cinema window, some people will have movie tickets at 7 o'clock in the evening at the time of the premiere, and some people will buy movie tickets for tomorrow or any convenient time, these money will be calculated." ”

It wasn't the first time Shao Yingying had read this kind of report, but this time Harry Sloan opened a new website that he hadn't seen before, so he was a little confused.

"Shao, this website is the fastest website in the United States to count the box office, because I am as eager as you, so I chose this website instead of going to the sales point of the theater to check." Harry Sloan pointed to the table on the screen and said: "After a while, some English words will gradually appear on the table, the meaning of these words is the name of the region, and there will be a new set of numbers jù under the words, which are the box office results of a single city, such as New York, LA, Las Vegas, etc., click on the region, and you will see the name of the theater in the area, and there is also a number under the theater, which is the specific sales amount, but now we still have to wait." ”

Shao Yingying sat opposite the office and nodded, and then the two fell into silence.

One hour, two hours, three hours.

The box office number and its slow form are constantly shrinking and increasing, and this time Shao Yingying can understand without Harry Sloan's explanation, what has been reduced is that the website has excluded those who are not watching the movie today, and what has been increased is the ticket purchase record of those who will enter the theater to watch the movie today. It's just that the entire box office count barely climbed past $20 million after three hours, which is a full three hours, and the sun is about to set.

I guess I'm going to stay up all night again today.

Slowly, Shao Yingying stared at the screen and became sleepy, and simply left as lying on the sofa to close his eyes and recuperate, but what he didn't expect was that the fatigue of so many days hit him instantly, and Shao Yingying almost fell asleep in the blink of an eye......
