Chapter 62: Box Office Frenzy

Alex has experienced the blockbuster frenzy of the 21st century, has the resources and ability, and Alex has made the big scene of "Tarzan of the Apes" to the extreme, every picture is magnificent and cool, and it is strange that it is not sensational to edit it out as a poster.

At the end of the premiere, the applause outside the floating temple rang out for ten minutes, which lasted for a long time.

Alex had been standing on the stage for a while, and the applause gradually stopped, and then he spoke: "Is the movie good?" ”

"Beautiful!" A deafening response.

"Like it or not?"

"I like it!" The sound is even louder.

"Do you know who filmed it?"

Everyone was stunned, and immediately shouted, this time the answer was varied, "Vivien Leigh!" "Remy! ", various.

"You're all wrong!" Alex shook his index finger and said proudly, "The whole movie, except for Miss Vivien Leigh, in front of and behind the scenes, are all us mutants, do you know the answer now?" ”

The voice on the field suddenly disappeared, and then a louder voice sounded than before: "Mutants! We mutants! ”

Alex looked at the crowd below with satisfaction, coughed lightly, and waited until all the sounds disappeared again, then continued to speak, from movies to X Pictures, and then to the future of mutants: "......, so I hope more people can join X Pictures and contribute to the future of mutants!" ”

Movies are not a one-person thing, and growing X Pictures is not something that can be done by a single crew, Alex needs more people to join the team, from actors, screenwriters, and directors. to photography, lighting, choreography. People are needed in every way.

A premiere. Coupled with a speech by the patron saint (Alex) in everyone's mind, the mutants on the floating island are enthusiastic, and the temporary X Pictures recruitment slot is full of people, which can keep the crew members who have just withdrawn from the crew of "Tarzan" very busy. In just one day, more than 1,000 people passed the preliminary screening, and at least 200 of them could eventually join X Pictures.

"You're eccentric, Alex!" Emma stood alongside Alex and Vivien Leigh on the tower of the Floating Temple, overlooking the crowd of people at the recruitment slots below. I couldn't help but say with some surprise, "There are a lot of students in my college who can't bear it, and they are all clamoring to make a movie!" ”

Alex and Vivien Leigh were both embarrassed and didn't know what to say, so they could only laugh and be silent.

Emma rolled her eyes at Alex and said angrily, "No, you have to go to the academy and give a speech, but you can't let the students run away to make a movie." Movies are important, but we can't forget about the Academy. ”

Emma has already said this, and Alex can't refuse. Nodding in agreement, he immediately turned his head to look at Vivien Leigh. Cunningly chose to divert the topic: "When will the movie be released?" ”

"It's all negotiated, it will be released in a week, and it will be released simultaneously in theaters across the United States." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Vivien Leigh's mouth, and she lifted the windblown hair in her ears with one hand, and said softly, "This is thanks to Mr. Howard, without his help, so many theaters would not have agreed." ”

"Don't be polite to Howard, just look for him if you have anything." Needless to say about anything else between brothers, Alex is also not polite at all.

A week later, "Tarzan of the Apes" was finally released amid great anticipation.

On the first day, the whole line was full.

The next day, it was still hot.

……

On the fifth day, it happened to be a holiday, and it was hard to find a ticket.

On the sixth day, some theaters withdrew other films, and only "Tarzan of the Apes" was shown throughout the day. But even so, it still can't stop the hot movie-watching frenzy.

On the seventh day, the boom continued.

Over the course of a week, the whole of America was caught up in "Tarzan of the Apes", for the beautiful scenery in the movie, for the magnificent scenes inside, and for the love between Tarzan and Jenny. X Pictures has also become well-known to everyone, as the chairman and president of X Pictures, Vivien Leigh has also become a hot upstart in Hollywood, not just a female star.

When the time entered the second week, the hot viewing tide of "Tarzan of the Apes" continued unabated, and at this time, the box office data of the previous week was also sent to Vivien Leigh. Before Alex could look at it, he was hugged tightly by the excited Vivien Leigh and gave him a fragrant kiss passionately.

Knowing that today is a special day, Howard also rushed to X Pictures, looked at the two kissing together, and said in a weird manner: "Vivien Leigh, I also made a contribution, shouldn't I also be rewarded?" ”

"Go aside!" Alex glared at Howard, threw the data sheet in his hand to him, and pulled Vivien Leigh to the side and sat down.

Howard took the data sheet and looked at it, his two eyes widened, and it took a long time to sigh and say, "It's really profitable to make movies!" ”

"Speaking of movies, Alex, what's going to be done in the next movie? When to shoot? After being promoted to the top of X Pictures, Vivien Leigh quickly entered her role and began to urge Alex to come.

Alex turned his head to look at Vivien Leigh, who had a tendency to become a strong woman, and shook his head busily and said: "You don't need to look for me anymore about making movies, this film company is in your charge, and you can come as you want." ”

"You're making movies, I've got to ask you, right?" Vivien Li smiled lightly and said softly.

Alex shook his head again and again, and couldn't wait to refuse: "I don't know how to make movies, a "Tarzan of the Apes" has tortured me enough, you can find someone else!" Seeing that Vivien Li's face turned slightly cold, she hurriedly comforted, "Didn't you recruit a lot of people recently?" There must be a suitable one. ”

Vivien Leigh pursed her lips, as if she had known it for a long time, and the expression on her face was not angry, but she complained and said, "Emma is really right, you are picking on the child again!" ”

The scene froze for a second, and then a burst of laughter rang out.

Alex was embarrassed and ashamed, glared at Vivien Leigh hatefully, turned his head to look at Howard who was trembling with laughter, and shouted angrily: "Laugh and laugh, you are laughing fart!" ”

Howard's laughter seemed to be unstoppable, beating his chest, but it meant to get bigger and bigger.

Alex couldn't stand it anymore, picked up Howard, and left X Pictures directly. Alex was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would have to find a hole to drill.

"Here?" Looking at the lush trees around him, Howard finally stopped laughing, turned his head to look at Alex, and asked in surprise, "This is the primeval jungle in the movie?" ”

Alex nodded, and just as he was about to speak, a strange roar suddenly sounded in his ear, and then a large figure stepped out from behind the tall trees.

"Dinosaurs?!" Howard's voice shifted slightly, pointing at the Tyrannosaurus Rex in the distance, and his face became a little stiff.

Alex didn't expect a dinosaur to run here, and he picked up Howard and was about to leave, but Howard stretched out his hand to stop him: "Don't, show me again, this is a Tyrannosaurus rex!" ”

The Tyrannosaurus rex also noticed the two of them, but it wisely did not rush up, because it felt the faint aura emanating from Alex's body.

After a moment of confrontation, the Tyrannosaurus Rex chose to retreat, and Howard was still a little disappointed.

"Alex, what the hell is this place?" Seeing the Tyrannosaurus Rex disappear completely, Howard turned to look at Alex and asked solemnly.

Alex thought about it and didn't hide it anymore, took Howard to the Floating Temple, and told the secret of the Savage Land.

"Oh, it's great!" Howard spread his hands as if he wanted to embrace the entire floating temple, "I'm going to move the lab here, I'm going to do my research here!" ”

After loudly announcing his thoughts, Howard seemed to remember something and turned his head to look at Alex, "By the way, is it safe here?" (To be continued......)
