Chapter 597: Fighting into the Hollywood Life(2/2)
The powerful actors of the number are powerful and powerful.
Originally, "The Black Man" should have been released simultaneously in Hong Kong and the United States, but in order to cope with the current public opinion situation,
Lin's Pictures decisively raised the release time of the movie in Xiangjiang for two days.
It also improved the specifications of the premiere and directly brought all the leading actors of the movie to Xiangjiang to boost the momentum.
At around 6 pm, Bakas Street was full of traffic, and the London theater entrance was crowded with people. The fence that was surrounded in advance was crowded with enthusiastic fans. In addition, dozens of entertainment reporters held cameras, waiting for the camera.
Suddenly, a burst of cheers broke out in the crowd.
Jet Li, wearing a black outfit, made a handsome appearance with the heroine Sandra Brock.
"Ajie! Jet Li!"
"Ajie, look here, look here!"
The energetic Jet Li waved to the fans calmly and received a light curtain composed of screams, shouts, and flashes.
"Maggie! Maggie!"
"Jiahui! Leung Ka-Fei!"
"Brother Fa, look here!"
The premiere of "Black Man" shines with stars. Film, who murdered many reporters, hoarsely the voices of many movie fans. This effect is exactly what Lin's Film wants.
Tomorrow morning, all the entertainment newspapers and magazine headlines in Xiangjiang will be occupied by the news that "Black Man" will be released.
Xiangjiang citizens will clearly see Lin's attention to the Xiangjiang market and its contribution to Xiangjiang films. Lin's Film not only dominated in Xiangjiang, but also brought Xiangjiang films to Hollywood.
"I feel like there are not so many stars in the Academy Awards!" After the young paparazzi took photos of Stephen Chow, he couldn't help but sigh.
"This promotional campaign is normal for a movie that has invested more than 200 million yuan."
$30 million can only be considered a medium investment in Hollywood, but in Hong Kong, it is a number that breaks through the sky.
Even Cheng Long's most expensive movie "Flying Eagle Plan" only invested HK$115 million.
"Everyone says Jet Li can't sell Cheng Long, but his backer is stronger than Cheng Long!"
The reporter, who was in his forties, was bald and bald, also sighed and responded to the words of the young paparazzi.
The two were talking when Yuan Diwen burst into screams in the crowd.
"Cheng Long!"
As if they had heard something incredible, the two reporters turned their heads and looked over.
"Take your mother! It's really Cheng Long!"
"Why is he here? This is the premiere of Lin's movie!"
This is not only a question for the two reporters, but also a question for all the reporters present.
Lin and Jiahe have been fighting each other in recent years, and the smoke of gunpowder has been everywhere. Not only is the movie stadium, but it has also gradually divided Xiangjiang movies into two major camps.
Except for a very few filmmakers who can be good at everything, most filmmakers have to choose side stations.
As Jiahe's card, Cheng Long appeared at the premiere of Lin's movie, which is really incredible.
The reporters at the scene were confused and no one could figure out the situation, but this did not prevent them from pressing the camera shutter out of Mars. This is the headline in the headlines!
The premiere of "Black Man" in Xiangjiang was unprecedentedly successful, not only because of the premiere of the movie itself and the stars that shine like the film festival, but also because of the sudden appearance of Cheng Long.
Since Jet Li's rise in the Xiangjiang film industry, Cheng Long and he have always been kings and have never appeared together in public.
Now the two major action superstars in Xiangjiang appear on the same stage, especially when Lin and Jiahe are incompatible, this premiere is comparable to a nuclear bomb thrown at the Hong Kong film industry.
The next day, various media reports were overwhelming, flooding the eyes of Xiangjiang citizens like a tide.
For a moment, news about "Cheng Long's past Lin Family" was rampant.
There are also media reports that Cheng Long has signed a contract with Lin's Pictures. Lin's Pictures will invest US$200 million to create three major production movies for Cheng Long, partnering with Shiweis Stallone, and impact.
Holy life.
Shives Strom is called by people from Xiangjiang, and is called Stallone in the mainland.
Tao Yushu's move was a pure open conspiracy. If it succeeded, it was poaching, or if it did, it was a counter-espionage plan. This sudden public opinion shock soon caused a panic within Jiahe.
The day after the news came out, Zou Wenhuai urgently spoke through the Sing Tao Daily, saying that Cheng Long and Jiahe have been working together for more than ten years, and they have known each other and have deep feelings for each other. Cheng Long will never leave Jiahe.
However, during this period, many media reporters tried to contact Cheng Long, but they were still unable to contact him.
He is now busy filming "Drunk Boxing 2". The crew is secure and the reporters tried their best but didn't hear any news.
If Cheng Long is not interviewed, the reporters can only harass the people around Cheng Long, but they all get nothing, and everyone doesn't know what the hell is selling in the moment.
The bustling week of public opinion finally subsided.
Before Cheng Long's whereabouts have been determined, Lin's Pictures first released a report card for the first week of "The Black Man" release - HK$20.55 million.
"Black Man" invested $30 million, with a strong lineup and a fierce release. Many people and audiences in the film industry have great expectations for this movie, thinking that this movie has hope to hit the box office created by "Jurassic Park"
Record.
The box office of 20.55 million in the first week seems to be full of hope to hit the 50 million box office mark. This result is quite impressive in the Xiangjiang film market, especially the summer season has just ended for a short time.
But with the horror record of "Jurassic Park", the achievement created by "Black Man" seems a bit dim.
After the box office was released, some newspapers immediately ridiculed Lin's Pictures' previous promotional news, and the box office performance of "Black Man" was not worthy of carrying shoes for Hollywood blockbusters.
In order to attract attention, entertainment newspapers have always made their remarks out of line. These media have discussed "Black Hero"
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is nitpicking, and it is not an exaggeration to pick the blame in the eggs.
But on the third day of this news argument, Ming Pao reprinted the box office information of the Hollywood Reporter movie:
"The 36th week of 1993, a total of four new films were released this week.
The suspense film "California Killer" starring Brad Pitt and Juliette Lewis, the comedy film "The Wind of Money" starring John Cusack and Debbie Mazza, the crime film "Blooded Romeo" and
The action movie "Black Man".
Among them, the first three movies performed mediocrely, with box office sales of 2.4 million, 1.8 million, and 130 respectively in the first week of the box office release.
Ten thousand.
The only one that can be said to be a brilliant performance is the movie "Black Man", which hit a box office of US$15.74 million on the first three days of the week.
By September 15, the movie had a box office of $32.19 million in the first week.
The excellent box office performance of "Black Man" in the first week also successfully squeezed out "Jurassic Park" released in the 12th week.
Become the box office champion of the US film market this week.
It is reported that the movie "Black Man" is published by Universal Pictures, produced by Lin's Pictures in the United States, and starring Hong Kong action star Jet Li and Sandra Brock. The film tells the story of-."
"Black Man" hit a box office record in the United States, not the first time Lin's Pictures has achieved success in the United States.
But this time the meaning is very different.
The slap in the face of some filmmakers' blow to Lin's "induce wolves into the house" some time ago also made the media that sarcastically sarcastic about Lin's Pictures shut up.
What’s more important is to let the general public see who is the film company that truly makes outstanding contributions to Xiangjiang Film and make outstanding contributions to Hollywood.
The success of "Black Hero" disintegrated Jiahe's public opinion offensive against Lin's family, but they have not come up with a solution for Lin's counterattack against Jiahe.
Tsim Sha Tsui at night, Dongying Building.
Jiahe’s employees have already gotten off work. Only the corridor is on in the huge office area, and a conversation is being held in the office at the end of the corridor.
Ten days ago, Cheng Long appeared at the premiere of "Black Hero" without warning, which scared He Guanchang and Zou Wenhuai.
That night, He Guanchang called Cheng Long to ask why he did this. Cheng Long only said that he was invited by Cai Lan and was not easy to refuse.
Now Jiahe and Lin are facing each other and never stop. Cheng Long's words are naturally unconvincing. The next day, He Guanchang appeared on the set of "Drunk Fist 2" and talked with Cheng Long, asking if Lin wants to poach him.
Cheng Long still covered up what conditions he put forward.
The more he did this, the more convinced He Guanchang and Zou Wenhuai were that Lin must have offered the conditions to make Jackie Chan feel moved.
The two tried to appease Cheng Long, but then spoke to the media and said that Cheng Long would never leave.
But although the public opinion has calmed down, Cheng Long has always avoided talking about this topic.
The two of them have been in the mall for a long time, so how could they not understand that it must be the promise made by Lin's privately that Cheng Long was moved, otherwise he would have just expressed his attitude directly. Cheng Long is obviously still struggling now.
So this evening, He Guanchang personally came forward to call Cheng Long back to Dongying Building, intending to join forces with Zou Huaiwen to completely extinguish Cheng Long's ambition to escape in the cradle.
"Along, you have worked with Jiahe for fourteen years. Have we treated you badly?
What have we said about you taking a few million shots?
You were injured in filming and the entire crew was suspended for half a year. What have we said?
He Guanchang, Cheng Long's godfather, was talking. The questioning was like a heavy hammer that made Cheng Long unable to raise his head.
The emotional card was very effective. He Guanchang and Zou Huaiwen looked at each other and looked much more relaxed.
"Godfather, I want to get into the Hollywood job!"
Chapter completed!
