Five hundred and fortieth chapters five to one

As the sun climbed into the sky, a Rolls-Royce Phantom parked in front of the Warner Building in Burbank. Duke pushed the door and got out of the car, and walked towards the Warner Bros.'s conference room with Tina Fey.

Although there is still some time before work, Warner Bros.'s senior executives have been waiting in the conference room. Eo Doug Walter sat at the top of the conference table without saying a word. Like everyone else, he was just waiting quietly, waiting for the arrival of the protagonist of this conference.

That man had reason to let them wait because he had created brilliant achievements for Warner Bros. One person almost supported the sky of Warner Bros. He would never lack big-selling movies under Warner Bros.

And this time, he is very likely to save Batman!

It was a series that had fallen into a cliff, and now he was holding it up with one hand. Judging from his performance in the midnight game, he was almost about to fly into the sky again.

The door of the conference room was gently knocked, and a secretary walked in with Duke and Tina Fei, and everyone's eyes instantly focused on him alone, as if he was looking at the savior.

Duke nodded to the look he looked at.

Others can regard him as Batman's savior, but he himself cannot do so. Such thoughts are also dangerous.

As soon as he walked to the conference table, Doug Walter stood up and waited here. He stretched out his hand and shook heavily with Duke. After he sat down, he announced that the meeting had begun.

This is a business meeting with very clear goals and targetedness. There is no word in the way, and the meeting goes straight to the topic.

"The midnight box office statistics for "Batman: The Moment of War" have come out."

The person who spoke is Doug Walter himself, as the parent company of D Comics. Warner Bros. has always wanted to reproduce the glory of D superhero movies, and Doug Walter dreamed that Batman could get rid of the decline in Duke's hands.

Everyone's ears were erected, and everyone here was Warner Bros. The company's performance was closely related to their future and destiny. No one didn't want to see "Batman: The Moment of War" a great success.

“The box office in the midnight event was $7.56 million!”

As Doug Walter's words were expressed, many people showed a smile on their faces.

Indeed, compared to the $11.26 million midnight box office record set by Duke with "The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King", the $7.56 million figure is not very eye-catching, but here are real industry insiders, and they are very clear that this figure is of extraordinary significance to Batman who restarts.

This is a series that has been completely failed. The name and signature of Duke Rosenberg may play a bigger role in it than Batman itself.

Perhaps some people are worried about the film's stamina, but the data released by Jamie Johnson, the director of the distribution department, basically put these people back in their stomachs.

"The audience praise rate of 89% in theaters, the average audience scored 'a', the imdb website 38,775 users scored 9.1 points, the audience's favorite popcorn index was 88%, and 45 media reporters from metaday scored the highest score of 86 points."

By the same token, such reputation is good enough for a failed series of restarts.

And they all understand that with such a reputation as the basis for the audience, even if the reputation will decline in the future, it will never become a super bad movie like "Batman and Robin".

As long as the box office in the first weekend can continue its midnight performance, "Batman: The War Moment" is undoubtedly a success. The Batman series can be reborn on the big screen!

"For D Comics and Warner Bros., this summer is a critical moment."

Doug Walter's eyes swept through the Warner Bros. senior executives and said extremely seriously, "The focus of this summer is "Batman: The Moment of War", mobilizing all corresponding resources. Fully support this video!"

The specific work was assigned one by one, and the meeting ended soon. Duke basically didn't speak much, and he was good at making movies. In terms of publicity and distribution, Warner Bros. professionals could make him a big street.

“Hi, Duke.”

After the meeting, Duke was about to leave when he was stopped by Doug Walter. He hurried over and said, "Can you talk a few times?"

"Of course." Duke naturally would not refuse.

"I believe Batman will definitely create glory in your hands."

The past years of experience have given Doug Walter a strong confidence in him, "Batman: The War Moment has already had a good start, why don't we continue?"

"Doug, it's just a year apart."

After thinking for a few seconds, Duke said again, "I'm going to direct "Iron Man", and the publisher is also Warner Bros. We are still working together, and next year there will be Zach's "Three Hundred Spartans Warriors."

"Did he agree to direct "Superman"?" Doug Walter asked again.

"I'm still thinking about it..." Duke said directly, "but he's very interested, but he won't be sure until the release of "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta"."

Since Marvel and Warner Bros. reached a release agreement, Marvel's cosmic plan is no secret for Warner Bros. Warner Bros., who owns D comics, also wants the heroes of the Justice League to gather on the big screen. Superman, one of the three big names of justice, is inevitably put on the agenda again. This time they did not act rashly and still focused on the Duke Studio.

The director of the Duke Studio has the ability to direct independently. Strictly speaking, only Duke and Zach Schneider and Wallace Lee's film are in post-production and will be released in September. It is hard to say whether it can succeed or not.

If "The Legend of the Night" fails to meet expectations, Duke will definitely kick him out.

Although the other party is his college classmate, these are not obstacles in the face of commercial profits.

Both of them were very busy. After a few simple conversations, Duke left the Warner Building and just got into the car. Tina Fey, who was in the passenger seat, turned his head and obviously something was wrong.

"I just received a call from a chain dealer around the West Coast. The person who called was Pete Co."

Seeing Duke recalling, she reminded her, "It's the one who recommends Amanda Seyfried. His company is the largest gift chain seller on the West Coast."

Duke nodded, remembering the Chinese, it seemed that he had left a phone number to the other party and asked, "What's wrong with him?"

"His company has five Batmobile cars in total, and they are sold out from last night until now," Tina Fei glanced at the work log and said, "Seven people still order him. Lamborghini and Warner Bros. are currently in short supply, so he asked us for help."

Sales mean profit, Duke said without thinking, "You can help him solve it."

The Batmobile is undoubtedly one of the most eye-catching places in "Batman: The Moment of War". The toys, models and real vehicles of the Batmobile are also the peripheral products that are featured in the film.

On Friday, both for the promotional surroundings and for the promotional video, the crew organized a Batmobile parade in Los Angeles. A convoy of sixteen Batmobile drivers drove onto the streets of Los Angeles under the same number of stunt drivers wearing Batman's robe.

This tour passed through famous streets of Los Angeles such as the Avenue of Stars, Hollywood Avenue, and Sunset Avenue, which attracted tens of thousands of people to take to the streets to watch. Several TV stations with good relations with Warner Bros. also sent helicopters to report and interview the entire journey. NN even broadcast related reports in the hourly news.

Major actors like Christian Bale and Lawrence Fishburne participated in the tour throughout the whole tour. Duke also showed his side at the beginning and end of the tour, and simply accepted interviews from reporters. When facing the reporter's microphone, he praised the performance of the entire crew, from actors to props to the Batmobile design team.

Perhaps such an interview is not surprising, but it can easily take away people's attention with sixteen powerful Batmobile as the background.

There is no doubt that at the beginning of the summer season in 2005, "Batman: The War Moment" easily surpassed its competitor "Dynasty" in the same period and became the most popular movie, which is particularly obvious on the Internet.

On the instant sharing website, as of Friday night, "Batman: The Moment of War" was reposted at 523,255 times, while "Dynasty of Heaven" only had 101,211.

On Google, the number of searches for "Batman: The Moment of War" was 657,856 times, and "Dynasty of Heaven" was 133,578 times, and the gap between the two sides was also obvious.

The most important thing is the gap in audience reputation. The audience praise rate of "Dynasty" in "Celestial Dynasty" is only 57%, the average audience score is '', the imdb website 18,775 users scored 6.7 points, the audience's favorite popcorn index is 63%, and 45 media reporters from metaday scored an average score of 68 points.

In any aspect, "Dynasty" is not a film of the same magnitude compared to "Batman: The Moment of War".

With the arrival of Friday night, people who were twice as many as weekdays flocked to theaters across the United States. Their goals were very clear, which was to films that had just been released during the summer season. In North America, a highly mature film market, the first choice for viewers in the summer season was commercial production.

Batman: The Moment of War and Heavenly Kingdoms are both preferred targets.

However, the effect of audience reputation and data in various aspects is reflected in the two movies. Only when five viewers buy tickets for "Batman: The Moment of War" will one viewer choose "Dynasty of Heaven".

So, after the first day of the two films' box office was released, the gap was clear at a glance. (To be continued)
