Walt Disney, which has strong self-production and self-sales capabilities and a complete film and television industry chain, has used its huge media platform to almost achieve the ultimate in the promotion and marketing of "World of Warcraft: The Angry Prince".
Beginning in mid-April, major theater chains across the United States, including AMG and Emperor Entertainment Group, launched pre-sales for the film on several websites, and in just ten days, World of Warcraft: Prince of Wrath sold nearly $55 million in box office pre-sales in North America, and that number continues to increase over time.
Compared to the past "The Hunger Games 2" and "Transformers 2", such pre-sale numbers seem to be very average, but don't forget, this is not a sequel, but a game adaptation that has not been tested by the market!
Even so, Ryan, who has seen the preview version of the film, is very confident in the commercial prospects of "World of Warcraft: The Wrathful Prince", and Natalie has an excellent control of the commercial elements on the basis of reflecting her own style, and the film maintains a fast enough pace and excellent picture effects while giving people some food for thought.
When the summer season kicked off in May, the North American box office pre-sale of "World of Warcraft: The Wrathful Prince" crossed the $80 million mark, and if nothing else, the film's first-week box office will inevitably exceed $100 million.
As for whether the film will hit the street after the box office in the first week, it depends on the audience's reputation after its release.
"Daddy......"
In the living room of Malibu Villa, Sandy tugged at the corner of Ryan's dress. Constantly shaking, "Can you take me with you?" You and Mommy aren't here, and my sister is going to the premiere, and there's no one to play with me......"
The little guy is very clever and does not beg his strict mother, but instead grabs Ryan, who is a little doting on her.
"Daddy......" She stared at her big blue eyes, and her pitiful appearance was really hard to refuse.
Maybe there is always a little guilt in his heart, and Ryan has never refused to ask Sandy not too much, so he had to turn his head to look at Nicole who came out after putting on makeup. She tugged at the corner of the moon-white strapless dress, and after a little look, she understood the general situation.
"You decide!"
Nicole's eyes swept over Ryan's face, then beckoned to Sandy, and the little guy obediently walked over to his mother.
Looking at the tacit understanding of the mother and daughter, Ryan already understood what to do, and said to the housekeeper in the corner of the living room, "Elsa, take Sunny to change her dress." ”
"Wow. Daddy is the best! ”
The little one waved his fist happily, and then kissed his mother on the smooth arm, "Mommy is even better!" ”
With that, she ran to Elsa, who came over. Holding the butler's hand, he disappeared around the corner of the corridor leading to the locker room.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Ryan couldn't see that Sandy must have Nicole's support behind him.
"Sunny is your daughter and mine, and it's impossible for her to completely hide from the media and adapt to this life."
What Nicole said was the simplest truth. In the News Corp case, Sandy's identity has already been revealed, although the pictures released in the media obscured the eyes. Her appearance can't be hidden from anyone who cares, and she was born destined to have the same childhood as other children, they can protect her, but she also has to learn to adapt to such a life.
Sandy is almost at the age of entering school, and although she can receive the best homeschooling, she is not Ryan when she was a child after all, getting along with her peers and expanding her circle of friends is also a process that children of this age must go through.
As the Oscar-winning actress and the daughter of two super-rich people, it is conceivable what kind of chase Sandy will be in the future.
Ryan can influence a lot of media, but he can't control all of them.
A large amount of relevant information flashed through Ryan's mind, and he fell into a brief silence, Nicole's approach is understandable, but it may not have other ideas, such as doing so will inevitably pull him on the red carpet together, and the image of a family of three will naturally be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
People are selfish, in fact, Ryan also understands that Nicole is not doing this to steal the limelight from Natalie, but for her daughter, after all, her daughter needs a relatively complete family.
"If you don't want to."
Seeing that Ryan suddenly stopped talking, Nicole spoke again, "I'll go and talk to Sunny about it." ”
"Honey......" Ryan spread his hands.
He's not stupid, Nicole said so, if he really stops it, I'm afraid there will be a dispute between the two immediately, even if it doesn't affect the relationship between them, but it will hurt the passionate daughter.
After reassuring Nicole with a few words, seeing her tall eyebrows slowly falling, Ryan picked up his pockets and paced back and forth in the living room, answering some questions thrown by Nicole with a few pairs, and patiently waiting for Sandy to change her dress.
"Are you sure Sunny won't be scared?" Ryan was still a little worried.
"Don't worry." Nicole rolled her eyes at this, "You are busy every day, and you don't have time to take care of your daughter's daily affairs, in order to deal with those nasty paparazzi in the future, after returning from Australia last year, I have found someone to do some targeted training for Sonny, although I can't deal with those difficult guys, but you should be able to see that Sunny is a bit like Alison before, and she is not afraid of them." ”
This can be said to be some of the learning that children from rich and celebrity families must carry out since childhood.
"Mommy ......"
The crisp children's voice reached the living room, Sandy wore a pink dress and a princess bun, walked quickly to Ryan and Nicole, and smiled and made a lady's salute, "Dad, am I pretty?" ”
"You're the prettiest."
After complimenting their daughter, Ryan and Nicole took one of Sandy's hands, walked out of the villa, sat in the black Rolls-Royce that had been waiting in front of the door for a long time, and rushed to the Kodak Theater where the premiere was held.
"No matter what they say or do, I can't see or hear!"
Sitting in the car, Sandy also said the essentials of dealing with the paparazzi, "Mommy said that I am protected now, and they don't dare to go too far, if they have crossed the line, Mommy and my sister will punish them!" ”
Her big eyes spun around, "Daddy......"
Before his daughter could finish speaking, Ryan gave her an index finger, "Sandy, put away your weird thoughts." ”
"Okay." The little guy deliberately hung his head.
The Rolls-Royce RV arrived at the Kodak Theatre a little late, and the red carpet ceremony had come to an end, and with the acquiescence of Ryan and Nicole, Sandy lay on the special car glass and looked curiously at the crowd outside.
The two teams of Lordaeron Kingdom infantry wore full-body armor and held shields painted with the Alliance's Lionheart emblem, neatly lined up on both sides of the red carpet, attracting the attention of countless people, and just as many game fans were cheering for the real-life game characters, the Rolls-Royce RV stopped in front of the red carpet.
Under the illumination of countless flashing lights, Ryan was the first to get out of the car, and then reached out to lead Nicole, and everyone was waiting for them to walk on the red carpet hand in hand, a cute girl with curly blonde hair tied into a princess bun and a jewel crown on her head, jumped out of the car by herself, walked to Ryan and Nicole, and took their hands from left to right.
There was an instant silence in front of the Kodak Theater, and most of the reporters forgot to press the camera shutter, and they could guess the identity of the little girl walking between Ryan and Nicole even with their toes!
"Honey, remember what you just said?" Ryan reminded Sandy.
"No matter what they say or do, I can't see or hear!"
Sandy looked up slightly, staring straight ahead, completely ignoring the reporters who were taking pictures on both sides of the red carpet and the growing noise around her, like a proud princess.
No, she's a princess now!
Although they walked on the red carpet with their daughter, although this was the beginning of Sandy's learning to deal with the media, and although there were countless troubles waiting for her in the future, Ryan and Nicole had neither the intention of being interviewed, nor the intention of showing affection in front of the media, and walked directly across the red carpet at Sandy's fastest speed, without entering the media interview area at all, and went straight to the Kodak Theater.
As soon as "Sister ......" walked into the VIP lounge, Sandy spotted Taylor and immediately walked over, "Sister! ”
"Hey, Sonny." Taylor took a few steps forward, bent down and hugged Sandy gently, "I didn't expect to see you here." ”
"Mommy said, you played an important role in the film."
The little guy's cleverness can be seen, and her relationship with Taylor is also excellent, "I specifically asked Dad to bring me to cheer you on." ”
"My dear......" Taylor deliberately pinched her tall little nose, "I'm so impressed! ”
Looking at his daughter, who was close to Taylor, Ryan's gaze quickly swept from the lounge, except for him, the cast and crew should still be in the interview area, waiting until the routine interviews and group photos were over before entering the theater.
Taylor walked over with Sandy in tow, and Ryan saw the big girl in high heels who was taller than himself, and asked with concern, "Alison, I heard that you are going to propose to Scarlett?" ”
"It's done."
Taylor seemed very happy, and the pair of royal blue eyes swept over Ryan several times, "Scarlett agreed, and we will choose a suitable time for the wedding." Ryan, don't forget, you said you were going to lead me up the red carpet for the wedding......"
"Honey." Nicole shook Taylor's hand with emotion, "How could we miss your wedding?" ”
After saying a few words, Disney staff came in to inform them that they could enter, and Ryan and others walked into the theater one after another, waiting for the film to kick off. (To be continued......)
