What is the measure of the success of a film? Different types of movies definitely have different answers, but the audience's recognition of the movie is an essential factor.

To put it bluntly, without the support of the audience, the movie is actually nothing.

Looking at a pure entertainment movie from the perspective of a literary film, in Ryan's words, what can those film critics bring other than showing that they are different and putting on a look that only I have a good eye in the world?

Is their word really authority? Or are they the spokesmen of art?

In the face of the menacing movie-watching craze, they can't even affect the status of "Jurassic Park" in the hearts of supporters, and they are destined to just jump around like clowns.

The younger generation doesn't believe in authority in the first place, let alone they are not, and Ryan's influence on this young group, the most important consumer group in the film market, is at least as far as they can throw from Los Angeles City Hall to the Santa Monica business center.

Whether these people genuinely dislike the film, or have been hinted at by some people — don't think how impartial the critics are, and how firm their statements are — Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World is destined to take off the dinosaur frenzy again this summer.

In the first week of the movie's release, in just three days, the box office exceeded 90 million US dollars, even if it was only 90 million, it was enough to sweep all other opponents, and what made Ryan and his collaborators even happier was that all spin-offs, including dinosaur doll models, were almost sold out.

The peripherals of this series of movies once again show a strong power, and the popularity cannot be compared even with last year's "Titanic" peripherals.

And the most stunned thing is that the top three of the new North American weekly box office list are all occupied by Ryan and his related works, and "Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World" deservedly occupies the championship. "Bug Crisis" showed great stability, beating other competitors to come in second place, and "Saving Private Ryan" still maintained enough vitality to take the third place.

This is a very competitive summer season!

Ryan is not worried about being too ostentatious, he just wants to show his strength and give some people confidence, besides, these movies have many partners, and the strategy of equalizing interests will make those people revolve around him.

After the full second week. "Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World" did not get rid of the normal movie rules, and the box office inevitably declined, but the figure of more than $70 million is still eye-catching and shocking.

This summer, Ryan? How many dollars does Jenkins have to take away for himself and for his partners? This has become a hot topic for many people.

Almost all eyes are attracted by these big productions, in the 30 inconspicuous theater chains in the Los Angeles area. A documentary called "Ghost" was quietly released.

Many people who had seen the short film on the Discovery Channel and the viral publicity on the Internet learned that the video was supposedly taken by the hands of a missing young couple.

Although received Drew? A call from Barrymore. Ryan had no interest in watching, the trembling shots and blurred images would only make him feel bored for someone like him who knew the truth of the matter.

Although Ryan only gave a few brief ideas. But after Drew asked professionals to supplement, all the movies he has made in the past few years have been successful, and he believes his words very much. A publicity group has been set up specifically for "Ghost" to be responsible for the development of specific businesses.

In this pseudo-documentary that has almost nothing to do with his previous life, Ryan just gave Drew general publicity advice, those Hollywood veterans are far more professional than him, and viral marketing is not a new thing, and under his prompting, these people quickly developed a complete publicity plan.

I have to say that although this woman's private life can be as bad as it is, she was able to develop her company into the scale it later in her previous life, and in addition to the huge network of contacts, she also has quite strong capabilities.

Of course, Drew? Barrymore wasn't stupid either, knowing that this kind of false propaganda was better used only this once, and that, in Ryan's words, would be 'disgraceful'.

This is also the reason why Ryan is unwilling to participate in it personally, don't think that he is not very old, the public and the media will laugh when they learn the truth, I am afraid that all the criticism will be concentrated on him at that time, after all, with his current identity and status, doing such a foolish thing will only attract a laughing stock.

As for the quality of the film? Whether the film will be a big hit or not has nothing to do with the quality.

As long as you can let the theater operators see enough revenue, let alone move the showtime to the best prime time, even if you increase the number of theaters in a week, it is not a problem.

And the premise of all this is to have enough copy numbers ready.

Under Ryan's solemn advice, Drew did not hesitate to invest heavily and prepared more than 2,000 copies in advance.

"Ryan, if this movie can't be a big hit, I'll take two thousand copies and set it on fire at the gate of Jenkins Manor!" This is what Drew said about the pain in his flesh at the time.

In addition to the fact that the distributor of Flower Pictures is fully prepared, the things related to "Ghost Shadow" are almost a copy of "Blair the Witch" in the previous life, this pseudo-documentary that is not even third-rate or even fifth-rate, on the first day of its release, all 30 theaters were full.

On the second day, the number of theaters increased to 50 departments, which were still full, and on the third day, the number of theaters directly increased to 200, which was still full......

In addition, all kinds of comments appeared on the Internet, and according to Ryan's suggestion at the time, the publicity team deliberately guided it, so that more people walked into the theater out of curiosity.

And this film, which cost only $50,000 and was shot by four students from the USC Film School, finally attracted the attention of more theaters, and with the public relations of Flower Pictures, by the second week, the theater chain had surged to nearly 2,000, and the copies prepared in advance not only came in handy, but even needed to be prepared.

And the box office of the movie in the first week exceeded 5 million US dollars, and the cost has almost been recovered.

Although the production cost of the film was less than $50,000, the subsequent publicity, public relations, and printing and other expenses were enough to millions of dollars.

So, when the second week passed, the North American media found that a movie they didn't pay much attention to and could barely name it ranked second in the North American weekly box office list with a box office of more than $30 million, second only to "Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World", which was released for three weeks.

Where did this movie come from? Who is the director? And who are the main actors?

Soon, these traditional media picked up the relevant news from the Internet and also found the distributor of the film, Flower Pictures, but the staff of Flower Pictures had already received a stern warning from Drew, and in the face of reporters' inquiries, the tone of the answer was unusually uniform - no comment.

Film critics likewise found that they had overlooked an important work and walked into the theaters.

Those film critics who are professional enough and have quick enough brain reactions immediately discovered the trickiness in it.

As for all film critics and industry insiders, they will be stupid to think that this is really a documentary editing, is that possible? This kind of student-level method can only fool the layman audience.

Even if Ryan doesn't like the vast majority of film critics, he has to admit that some of them still have quite professional qualities, and such a film whose quality can be described as garbage naturally can't hide from their eyes.

The media began to reveal the facts, but Flower Pictures remained silent, and many viewers walked into the theater again under curiosity.

After the third week, "Ghost" once again grossed more than $30 million, but Flower Pictures was under tremendous pressure, both fans and the media demanded that they give answers to prepare.

Like "Blair the Witch" in the previous life, Flower Pictures very simply admits that the film is not a real documentary, but an experimental feature film made by students at USC Film School, and as for publicity, it is just some special tactics.

Some generous viewers laughed it off, and some viewers who felt fooled vented their anger in protest, and although the media felt that this propaganda method was a bit novel, several mainstream newspapers slammed Flower Pictures' approach.

Although there are still many people who are curious to walk into the theater, the box office of the movie began to plummet, just like the movie will be recognized by professionals as not a documentary, which is something that no one can stop.

However, the film is signed with a screening contract of nearly two months, as long as the number of viewers does not exceed the minimum limit, and it can continue to generate profits.

Only a limited number of people such as Drew and Darren know about Ryan's hiding behind the scenes, and he likes this kind of thing that can make money without hurting his character.

As for Drew, who was scolded as a liar? Miss Barrymore, would she care about such a voice? She has experienced countless lashes even more violently than this in the past few years, and as long as there is money to be made, she doesn't care. ，

When "Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World" soared, the North American box office exceeded 200 million US dollars, and "Ghost" gradually approached the 100 million yuan box office mark, Ryan left all the most lively summer files and the disturbances of Los Angeles behind, left North America on his own business jet, and once again set foot on the island of Fiji.

More than a third of the footage of "Desert Island Aftermath" still needs to be filmed, and the crew needs to seal the footage as soon as possible in order to prepare for Robert? Zemeckis left enough time for post-production, otherwise it would be empty talk if he wanted to release it within the year. (To be continued......)
