Chapter 173

In the living room of the deluxe suite.

Jane Haran and Giuseppe tonado ray "Baji Baji" smoked the high-grade goods brought by Tracy. They looked like they enjoyed it. Before long, a cigar more than ten centimeters long was half burned.

Tracy didn't light the cigar at all. As usual, he roasted it with fire. When it gave off fragrance, he put it under his nose and sniffed it.

It must not be as refreshing as smoking, but it has a different taste. Tracy also has this one.

Yu Guang glanced at the two middle-aged men who greedily smoked cigars like "hungry tiger reincarnation". Tracy unconsciously smoked at the corners of her mouth. It was too fierce to be afraid of getting drunk.

"Tracy, if you don't smoke cigars, don't waste it." well, before Tracy advised them to take it easy, Jane Haran opened her mouth with a flesh ache on her face, and there was something accusing him in her tone.

Tracy heard this, raised her head, shook her head and laughed, "ha ha, I'm not a waste. I've sucked away the essence of cigars."

"Tu.... The essence has been burnt away by you. It's a waste." Jane Haran disagrees with him and gives him a straight eye.

Tracy shook her head speechless, sniffed twice, and threw it directly to Jane Haran. "Take it, uncle Haran, don't say I wasted it."

I really can't show the operation in front of a senior smoker. It's easy to be hated by the other party. Jane Harlan is also his uncle's generation. She dares to directly confront him. Unlike George, Renault and others, she is as angry as a knife at Tracy's wasteful behavior.

Jane Harlan picked up Tracy's cigar on the tea table, smelled it and put it directly into her coat pocket.

He took two more puffs of his cigar and said, "Tracy, you really don't look like a young man. You don't attend the party very much. You don't touch marijuana and K, and you don't smoke cigars. What a freak."

Giuseppe tonado Lei, who was on one side, said with a smile, "Jane, don't teach young people to harm. Li that's self-discipline."

"Self discipline? Hey, he doesn't care about his little brother. That's self-discipline. He has a lot of women." Jane Haran smiled at gisebe, pouted and pointed to the bedroom.

Jane Haran was obviously referring to Monica. Giselle smiled back and said, "young man, understand. If we have his physical strength, we may not be better than him, ha ha ha."

Two old timers, you make fun of him. Tracy reluctantly stood up and directly changed the topic, "what do you want to drink, I'll get the wine." then he went directly to the wine cabinet.

"Whisky."

"Brandy"

Jane Haran and Giselle said one after another that they both like highly distilled wine. Jane Haran obviously prefers grain whisky and Giselle prefers grape fruit brandy.

Tracy looked in the wine cabinet and came over with two bottles of wine and three glasses in a moment.

Tracy poured a whisky for herself and Jane Harlan, Giselle poured a brandy for herself, and the three touched the glass and drank it in one gulp.

With the strength of wine, Jane Harlan checked Tracy's special hobbies, such as luxury cars, luxury houses, yachts, helicopters and so on.

Tracy smiled but didn't speak. Looking at the cheap uncle, he helped himself boast B in front of Giselle. He really couldn't cry or laugh.

His extravagant life is really what the two middle-aged people yearn for.

The topic has been deviated from the film festival. Finally, Giselle pulled the topic back, "Li, you should at least go to the film exhibition tomorrow. I can introduce president Mario monicelli to you. He likes our Sicily very much, especially Monica's performance in it."

"Well, I'll see it tomorrow." Tracy thought for a moment. It wouldn't hurt to know the organizers of the Venice Film Festival, so he agreed.

Later, Tracy was concerned about the response of Sicily to the film festival and asked, "how are the attendance rates of our films these days? How are the reactions of the audience and the media? Do you have a chance to win awards?"

"The response was good. The attendance rate at the beginning was more than 60%, and now it can be guaranteed to be 30% or 40%. Gisebe specially recorded these data, but he didn't take them with him at this time. He kept staring at the attendance rate, so he opened his mouth. He thought about the evaluation and scoring, and said:" 21 media, five-star system scoring, Sicily " The average score of is 3.13, which is embarrassing. The popular "regression" has 3.96 points, 21g has 3.78 points and Sitou city has 3.81 points.

We are much worse than them. These are the hot spots of the Golden Lion Award and the Silver Lion Award. We basically have no chance to win the award. However, the performances of Monica and Albert have been affirmed and have the opportunity to compete for the best actress and the best newcomer.

As for the public praise of the audience, the online scoring system is very strict. The average score of Sicily is 6.7. Many people like the film. Tracy, you have successfully caught their attention. Anyway, your first film has been successful. "

Giuseppe patted Tracy on the shoulder and encouraged him that he didn't mean to flatter Tracy. It's not easy for him to enter the main competition unit this year. He knows too well that it's undoubtedly a success for Sicily to enter the main competition unit.

This is Tracy's first film. With such achievements, who dares to say that he is not successful.

"Did you succeed?" Tracy shook his head slightly. Obviously, he didn't care much about these written honors. He was more concerned about the box office, "Giuseppe, I have to take this opportunity to publicize it. The box office is still the key. I didn't think my first film would win the award. I just hope it can get a good box office and let people all over the world know Monica.

The distribution right in Europe has been handed over to you for a long time. Can you tell me how much box office it can have? You don't know, the Hollywood media say I don't work hard every day and are ready to see my jokes. "

Tracy is still a little sure about the distribution and publicity in the United States. He was ready to spend money at the box office a few months ago.

The situation in Europe is too complicated. He can't play around. He can only ask the Italian director in front of him.

"This... This is really hard to say. I can only guarantee that the box office in Italy will not be bad, and other countries have to contact my old friends. I'm sorry, I can't estimate the box office." Giselle smiled awkwardly.

"That's too bad, Giuseppe. I thought you had considered it all." Tracy glanced, obviously dissatisfied with the agent, "However, we still have time. I plan to release the film in the United States in mid October. If it is in Europe, it can be delayed for one to two months. I hope you can make good use of the influence of this film festival to sell our film. I can pay more distribution fees, but I want those distributors to guarantee me more screens for the film. The distributors must show their Strength. "

Tracy said firmly that he was well aware that the box office success of Sicily had little to do with its film quality, but more to do with its distribution and publicity.

It's a pity that it only got one or two hundred screens in the United States, and it's only released in small countries such as Italy, Belgium and Argentina in Europe. There are too few resources. Then it can only release DVDs to play out the influence of the film. A year or two later, the world knows Monica.

The original production company didn't have as much money as Tracy. It didn't have the platform of the Venice Film Festival, let alone redundant channels.

"It's not a problem, as long as you can come up with more money."

"Yes. Tracy, as long as you have money in this circle, you can do whatever you want. But the production cost of Sicily is only more than 10 million. I'm afraid it's difficult to recover the cost if you take too much money for publicity." gisebe said, and Jane Haran immediately said. Obviously, he was worried that he couldn't recover the cost.

"I have already spent $5 million on publicity in the United States, and I am going to invest $5 million in it. In Europe, 10 million is not enough."

"Oh, my God!!! The global box office of Sicily needs to exceed 100 million to recover the cost."

"Break 100 million? Hehe, is this goal difficult?"
