The first Monday in September coincides with the Labor Day holiday.

Cinema companies began to increase the number of screens and film scheduling rates, and the single-day box office of "Invasion of Evil Spirits" rose instead of falling, ushering in a small climax, earning $6.08 million at the box office in a single day.

In addition, the box office performance of the first three days of the opening weekend was $19.06 million, and in just four days, a total of $25.17 million was earned.

However, the reputation of "Invasion of Evil Spirits" has declined rapidly, and it is estimated that the box office will face a significant reduction by Tuesday's working day

The peak of "Invasion of Evil Spirits" is very short, and the next can only rely on long-term screenings to increase the box office data little by little.

At the end of the summer season, on the first day of rest in September, the North American film market once again ushered in a film, invested and distributed by Twentieth Century Fox, and the horror film "Evil Ghost Invasion" directed by Ryan Gosling was released, which opened with 480 screens at midnight, and received $25.17 million at the box office during the first three days of the weekend and the Labor Day holiday. ”

Twentieth Century Fox, the film's investor, has publicly announced that "Saw 3" will be released during the Thanksgiving holiday. ”

Inside the Disney headquarters office building, Michael Ovitz put down the newspaper with a very ugly face.

"Four days after the premiere, it received $25.17 million at the box office!"

"In other words, Ryan Gosling's Invasion of the Evil Spirits didn't fail?"

Widdis-Albert nodded silently and said, "At least from a business point of view, Ryan Gosling did not fail, but brought a lot of profit to Twentieth Century Fox. ”

Whether a film fails or not is not the media report and the audience's reputation, but whether it can bring profit.

Obviously, the box office results of "Invasion of Evil Spirits" have not only reaped the cost, but are also expected to make a lot of profits.

Michael Ovitz opened his mouth and eventually said nothing, except waved his hand and asked assistant Waitis Albert out.

After a long while, he muttered to himself in a heavy tone and said, "Ryan Gosling?"

He couldn't figure out why Ryan Gosling could be so successful.

Even if it is a good-for-nothing horror film, it is still a success.

He had just read the data in the newspaper, and the female audience accounted for 59%, an unbelievable proportion.

Michael Ovitz suddenly realized that once Ryan Gosling's "Truman's World" was filming, it could be a success once again.

Then he will face unimaginable consequences, and there will be doubts in the Disney board of directors, and even shake his position.

Unless some necessary means can be taken.

Michael Ovitz quickly shook his head and didn't continue to think about it, he could publicly blame Ryan Gosling, or even use his connections to suppress Ryan Gosling.

But "Truman's World" is not only Ryan Gosling's investment, he can't make any small moves in the face of Paramount and Lucasfilm.

Especially in the current critical period, choosing to go to war with Paramount and Lucasfilm is not a good choice for him.

What's more, Disney is not a CAA, and it is Eisner who can really call the shots, not him Michael Ovitz.

At about the same time, in Paramount's office building, Shirley Lansing and her husband, William Friedkin, took the newspaper that the secretary had just delivered.

"The director of the film, Ryan Gosling, is obviously influenced by "The Exorcist" in terms of his directing style?"

After William Friedkin finished reading, he first made a helpless move, and then said exaggeratedly: "Finally someone told the truth." ”

Shirley Lansing did not choose to satisfy her husband's vanity, and "The Exorcist" is long in the past, saying: "Ryan Gosling, a director who can bring miracles, it seems that the choice to invest in "Truman's World" in the first place was a very correct decision. ”

"Disney and Eisner are missing out on a director who can do wonders. ”

Many Hollywood films and directors have been called miracle words, such as George Lucas and "Star Wars", as well as William Friedkin and "The Exorcist".

Twentieth Century Fox is said to be interested in acquiring Ryan Gosling's personal studio in order to acquire the rights to the entire Saw series. William Friedkin put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at Shirley Lansing.

"Saw Horror" series film copyright!

Shirley Lansing frowned slightly and said, "It seems that Paramount also needs to issue a letter of intent to acquire. ”

Paramount is notoriously bad at running film series, with the exception of the Star Trek series, there are few well-known series, and even Lucasfilm is not as good as Lucasfilm in the second-tier studios.

"Then the CAA's partnership with Tom Cruise!" William Friedkin said with some hesitation.

CAA and Tom Cruise are preparing to work with Paramount on a new project, with an initial investment of up to $80 million.

Of course, that's not the point, the point is the relationship between CAA and Ryan Gosling, something that Hollywood is well known for.

"It doesn't matter. ”

Shirley Lansing said pointedly: "Michael Owitz has begun to transfer the shares of CAA, he is now the president of Disney, not the controller of CAA, and his residual influence will soon be wiped out." ”

As early as August, Michael Ovitz officially announced that he would resign from all positions in CAA and transfer all shares of the company to become the president of Disney.

It can be said that CAA has little to do with Michael Ovitz anymore.

"Now that you've decided. ”

William Friedkin said without hesitation: "Then you need to have someone gather all the information about Ryan Gosling's personal studio immediately, as well as a good amount of cash." ”

Shirley Lansing nodded, the value of the copyright of the "Saw Horror" series will obviously not be a small amount, and it will face many competitors, such as Twentieth Century Fox, and Paramount's final acquisition price will definitely not be cheap.

But she still has no intention of backing down, and the copyright of the "Saw Horror" series can just make up for the shortcomings of Paramount's lack of being good at running the series.

Ryan, who is far away in Canada, has not been paying attention to the release data of "Invasion of Evil Spirits" every moment as the outside world guessed.

However, the crew of "Truman's World" became more and more in awe when they looked at Ryan's gaze. Directing three films and producing one film, all of which were box office hits, is not something that ordinary directors can do.

Another point is that the film is a big hit at the box office, which is also good news for ordinary crew members, not only can they have a luxury at the celebration dinner, but they can also get a lot of red envelopes.

So much so that many crew members began to talk privately about the topic of "Truman's World", whether it can continue to be a box office hit in the future, how many red envelopes they can get, and so on.

Ryan had just had a very pleasurable experience, looking down at Claudia Schiffer in his arms while caressing her smooth skin.

"The box office of "Invasion of the Evil Spirit" is not bad, and it is estimated that it will eventually exceed $40 million, otherwise Twentieth Century Fox would have to blacklist me. ”

is a little exaggerated, even if "Invasion of Evil Spirits" is not satisfactory at the box office, Twentieth Century Fox is not expected to blacklist him, and he will continue to cooperate in the filming of "Saw 3".

Claudia Schiffer leaned into her arms, stretched out a slender index finger, placed it on Ryan's chest, and said, "Do you need to celebrate?"

"You can call your little lover to come along, I won't mind. ”

"We can try new tricks. ”

The little lover in her mouth refers to Charlize Theron.

New tricks!

Ryan's heart suddenly became hot, and he said, "Very tempting proposal, we can try tomorrow night, the new trick you said." ”

It's okay to play more tricks that you haven't seen before, such as asking the two of them to walk the catwalk together.

By the way, you need to prepare some stockings, short skirts, leather pants, underwear, high heels, boots and other costume props.

If you have time, you can also come to a drama performance, Superman vs. real and fake Wonder Woman, and see how their acting skills are.

Don't think too much about it, there is nothing unhealthy about it, just a normal model catwalk, and rehearsing some plots.
