~: Two hundred and eighty-two-early field box office

It wasn't until everyone entered the theater that Daisy nodded to the theater manager, preparing to show the movie at the same time.

Fortunately, this is a newly built cinema. Most of the old-fashioned cinemas do not have multiple halls. Large cinema halls with hundreds of people are more common. However, multiple hall design is a trend and has gradually become popular.

Seeing that the film was about to start showing, Hector-Henry came over with a few friends, and Daisy was already anxiously looking at the theater.

"Hurry up, the movie is about to start."

Daisy pulled up some friends and boyfriends, ran into the prepared theater while complaining, and walked to her place with her head down, feeling the darkness. "What are you doing? If it wasn't for the unexpected delay of the screening, you would be late!"

The few of them had just sat in the last row. The lights in the theater had already started to go out, and the projector lights appeared on the curtains, and the opening advertisements began to be shown.

Hector-Henry shrugged, leaned into his girlfriend's ear and whispered: "The company is crazy today, this film will be officially released tomorrow, and the full set of film accessories needs to be deployed by our department and sent to various cinemas and theaters. Nearby stores.”

"Around?"

This sentence reminded Daisy and made her think about whether she could get a batch. She has a large number of potential consumers in her hands. However, she then drove the idea out of her head, so don't make money like this, it's tantamount to killing the chicken and taking the eggs.

You must know that the activity she organized this time is equivalent to a test. If she can achieve good results, she will be able to get in touch with Wayne's agent Jimmy to cooperate with Wayne's fan organization.

This relatively advanced practice is the first time in this Hollywood circle to run their own fan group and let them support idols through various methods, which has exceeded the standards of directors of this era.

Even the directors who will go on stage in the future will probably not have such a fan organization.

Another relatively advanced approach is to organize the movie fans to book a movie theater with a name-calling certificate that Daisy came up with. If this practice is put in 20 years, netizens on the other side of the Pacific should be very familiar with it. After almost every movie is released, fans will do it.

In fact, it's not just a fan organization. When Jimmy told Wayne about this, his first thought was to try it out. If Daisy, the discussion group leader, did a good job, Wayne also wanted to wait until the organization was mature, and then he would get rid of it in advance. Powder tissue.

No one can imagine how influential the Internet Navy is now, but he knows too well the power of a group of black fans in the early days of the Internet age.

Whether it is used to promote their own movies or to smear competitors, these black fans can show strong fighting power.

During the entire movie screening, Daisy couldn't concentrate on watching. She would leave her seat from time to time and go to other theaters to check the situation. These fans who came to watch the movie were young people with passion After that, no one can guarantee what will happen.

It wasn't until ten minutes after midnight that violent applause broke out in several theaters almost at the same time. It lasted for several minutes, and Daisy was relieved. She knew that if there was no accident, today's stage is over.

As for the hundreds of thousands of annual salary offered to her by her agent Jimmy, she was able to get it steadily, but these things must not be told to the team members, this is a secret that belongs to her alone.

"What a pity, Daisy."

After the fans left the theater one after another, and even the nervous policeman left, Hector-Henry took his girlfriend's hand and walked out together with a smug look on his face, and said:

"You actually missed this great movie. Listen, if I were you, I would watch it again. To make up for this regret, you don't know how exciting the movie is."

"I want to watch it too, **** it!" Daisy was also very annoyed, but she was always worried, and was always afraid of unexpected situations, so she hardly watched what the movie said.

"You can come with me again tomorrow. I hope you can get tickets by then. Ector, this is my career, and managing Wayne's fan organization is my focus in the future, and I must take it seriously!"

Opening the car door for his girlfriend, Ector-Henry turned to the driver's seat, started the car engine, and drove towards the apartment they rented. "I understand, my dear, I will always support your work. To be honest, I always feel that your job is more promising than mine."

What the two of them didn't notice is that among the movie fans who walked into the theater today, one person was not in the discussion group at all, but watched a movie together by accident.

That is the black security Schroeder, but he is now one of them. Through chatting with a group of like-minded fans, he discovered the most important thing. During the movie, several fans who chatted with him did not Discrimination against his skin color.

This situation is too rare. When discussing Wayne's previous work and the plot of this movie, those people did not look down on him, but put him on an equal footing, which made Schroeder feel respected for the first time.

Through Wayne's movie "Joker", this black boy realized the value of life. After he gave up everything, he became a building security in Burbank.

If he could gain respect and some friends through Wayne's Batman, he would feel that his life would be complete. This was something he never dared to think about before. Before in downtown Los Angeles, every day he thought about it. Don't get shot with a black gun.

Although the last movie "The Clown Returns to the Soul" did not meet Schroeder's taste, he couldn't find a good point for those childhood memories that made people feel good, and he couldn't like that horror movie, but this bat He likes Xia very much. Although Wayne's style has changed, he finally came back with a new film.

The clock of midnight has struck, and the black boy Schroeder returned to his apartment with joy, went to bed early, and prepared to meet the next day's work in the best condition.

But the seventh floor of the Fox Building in Burbank is brightly lit, and some people are destined to be unable to sleep peacefully. In Townsend-Rothman's office, the main creators of "Die Hard 3" are all anxiously waiting for advance notice. Field statistics.

"Bruce."

The director and producer of the film, John McTiernan, called out to the leading actor with an ugly face, and reluctantly said, "After the premiere, when reporters are interviewing you, you shouldn't attack Wayne- Greenberg, I understand how you feel, but this can easily lead to more accidents."

"Listen, John!"

In fact, Bruce Wesley also regretted it a little later, but the words have already been said, and it is estimated that it will be reported tomorrow. At this time, he can only hold on.

"We are competitors. Do you expect me to praise that director? It's time for the bayonet to become popular, and we have no room to fall back."

Although he was tough on his lips, he felt uneasy for a while. After the premiere party, the reporter asked him to comment on the competitors when interviewing him, and he hardly said a few good words because of his drinking.

"Wayne Greenberg? That twenty-five-year-old kid? I'm sure Die Hard 3 will let him know what a real summer blockbuster looks like. Don't talk about his previous grades, in In my eyes, Wayne Greenberg is a director who can only direct low-budget thrillers, and the hundreds of millions of dollars invested by Warner Bros. are destined to be his Waterloo!"

Thinking of the words he said, he felt uncomfortable for a while, and he was accustomed to saying big things. Now he just hopes not to be slapped in the face.

Just when he thought about it, the secretary knocked on the door of the office, and then walked in with a few pieces of printing paper. Everyone knew that it was premiering at the same time, and at the same time, the two films that had been shown in advance were played, and the winner was on the first day. It's all on these sheets of paper.

According to the habit of big companies, 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros. hired a third-party investigation company tonight, plus some investigators from their own companies, to collect all the data related to the film.

"Okay, everyone has waited long enough, I'll read it to you."

Townsend Rothman, who is already quite old, yawned and picked up the statistics, looked at a few people and said:

"According to the preliminary rough statistics of the Cinema Alliance, the early box office of "Die Hard 3" was about 7.8 million US dollars. Well, this result is very good."

The first item is the box office statistics. This figure is already very good. The first two films have accumulated a large number of fans. This is the advantage of this sequel film.

And this number also made Bruce Wesley and John McTiernan smile confidently at the same time, no matter what the competition is, this film of his own has reached the expected level in advance at the box office.

"A third-party research company randomly distributed 2,200 questionnaires, and more than 2,110 were returned. Seventy-nine percent of the fans who have watched the film gave the film an A rating or above. These fans are generally I think that this film is very exciting, it is a rare Hollywood blockbuster, and the rest of the fans rated it above C!"

Now a few people in the office have completely let go of their worries. A Hollywood commercial popcorn can have such a high audience reputation, indicating that the performance of the film is in line with the tastes of most people, and the box office should not be a problem.

As for the professional reputation of the film? Since the "Shawshank Redemption" incident, Hollywood studios have found that the summer season can ignore the opinions of film critics, and their influence on the audience of the summer season is limited.

"Is there any statistics on Batman?" John McTiernan asked. They all knew that there were no secrets in Hollywood at this point in time, and these survey data were not confidential and would be made public in the future.

"Of course, I think there should be." Townsend-Rothman turned over the next page of the printed paper, the smile on his face darkened in an instant.

Bruce Wesley sensed something was wrong. "How much, Townsend? What's wrong?!"

""Batman: Time for War" has opened a total of 2,500 advance shows, and through the rough statistics of the theater alliance, it has received a total of about 15.8 million US dollars!"

"f**f! He broke the record?!"

Everyone understands what this number means, that is, almost every early stage is almost full of audiences, and this number, you don't need to check it, it should be breaking the box office record of the early stage!

"It may be because the film is rated PG13, or it may be because of other reasons. There is a situation to pay attention to. The die-hard fans of Wayne Greenberg actually booked a whole movie theater!"
