Chapter 358: auction

There is no shortage of regional concepts in any country or ethnicity, and Russians are not included. Since the film market has opened its arms to Hollywood, this vast land, like other parts of the world, has been quickly produced by Hollywood commercials. Conquered.

In a movie from Hollywood, there are so many images of one's own country that can be seen by the audience. This is also proved by the fact that "Remains of a Deserted Island" quickly occupied major theaters after entering Russia.

The Red Square, the Volga River, the Lenin Cemetery and the ice and snow in Moscow, like Ryan's powerful appeal, attracted a large number of Russian audiences into the theater.

However, no one thought that at the latest regular press conference of the Russian Duma, the congressman who served as the spokesperson would openly criticize "Remaining on the Deserted Island" and Ryan? Jenkins made a serious protest and even bombarded the film.

"Hollywood films always vilify the image of Russians. This time, they are described as procrastinating and timeless slackers. This is slandering the whole of Russia. We should boycott Ryan Jenkins' films and boycott " The rest of my life on a deserted island""

This is what the congressman said in the face of the media. He even called on the Russian authorities to directly intervene and let "Leaves of a Deserted Island" be removed from the theater in advance.

The news quickly spread back to North America. Although Russia is not too important a market, Ryan will not let this happen, and the necessary public relations work will begin quickly. .

Used him to Julius at the time? In Stewart’s words, it’s ‘we can’t live with anything, we can’t live with money, even if it’s not very valuable rubles. ’

The other party obviously inherited the excellent traditions of the Soviet Union, and went online at every turn, elevating the incident to the height of the entire country and nation.

Ryan was keenly aware that Russia’s reaction was so overwhelming that it was very likely that it had something to do with the two Faberge eggs that Julius got through. After all, to a certain extent, this is considered the most representative of Russia. One of the artworks.

The problem is, those of them even dare to sell the entire country for money, so two small easter eggs need to be so real?

After all, zhengfu is a powerful organization, and Ryan will not be so stupid as to confront Russia’s zhengfu. Jenkins Pictures held a press conference as quickly as possible, and specially invited reporters from Moscow to say, “Chuck reprimanded in the movie. The procrastination of Russian employees is actually a mockery of the workaholic Americans, and does not mean anything to belittle the Russians."

Today’s Russia is no longer the former Soviet Union. Zhengfu’s influence has greatly diminished. In addition, Jenkins Pictures responded quickly. After this self-deprecating statement was issued, the Russian market did not bring too many adverse reactions. "Remains on a Deserted Island" almost dominated the movie market for polar bears in winter.

In the entire Western world, this film can be said to be both acclaimed and popular. It brings out the perception of life, even surpassing "Robinson Crusoe", plus Ryan's own crazy appeal. With one exception, he won the box office championship in the theater area.

In the Far East, the same is true. After "Titanic", Ryan has become the most well-known and box office Hollywood star in this region.

Even in Ben, the place where Godzilla was born, after "Godzilla" maintained its top spot at the box office for a week, it was pulled down by the later "Remains of a Deserted Island", and the box office was simply North American. In the reprint, there has been a serious polarization between the two sides.

Sony Columbia Pictures, in the "Godzilla" project, it can be said that there have been many mistakes. It did not please the American audience, but also lost the support of its birthplace. The huge production cost and publicity budget passed the box office. It is difficult to recover, and can only count on the follow-up derivatives market.

Of course, limited to the subject matter of the movie and the western values ​​of the reaction, "Leaves of a Deserted Island" has achieved great success in the Far East, but it is far less than "Jurassic Park 2" in the summer. It is better in North America. It is getting hotter and hotter, and the box office is almost superimposed with very stable numbers.

Some professionals don't understand why such a trivial simple story-or Tom, who has no talent for screenwriting? The idea that Hanks came up with—why came to Ryan? Will there be a completely different effect in Jenkins' hands?

Although they overestimated the movie, it caused a sensation far beyond imagination.

The hottest topic in North America during the Christmas period is the discussion about "Remains of a Deserted Island". From the plot of the movie, from the protagonist Chuck, it seems that every audience can experience different feelings that belong to their own.

Even those young students who lack life experience are also expressing their views on movies on the Internet.

"If you meet Chuck, can you survive?"

This is the hottest topic of discussion. Although they are a rebellious and confident generation, after a rational analysis, they found that they might be able to, like Chuck, rely on the existing conditions on the deserted island, they will not die because of hunger and thirst. , But how to endure that kind of loneliness?

The continued popularity of topics will inevitably bring a good box office harvest. The North American box office of the third week of "Remains of a Deserted Island" was fixed at a figure of just over 59 million US dollars, defeating the "Rush Hour" released this week for three consecutive Zhou Xiong ranked first in the North American box office rankings.

"strange."

Ryan thought about the North American box office rankings that had just been released, and Taylor, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help asking curiously, "Weird? What's weird?"

"Ah, nothing." Ryan shook his head.

He can't tell the little guy that the previous "Rush Hour" should have been released long ago, and should not be directly against his own movie in this highly competitive Christmas stall.

Forget it, let him, anyway, he doesn't have much interest in this series, otherwise, where will the new line be.

"What are you thinking about again? Ryan, if you don't take action anymore, I will call the number for you." The little girl's eyes fell on the number plate in Ryan's hand, "Don't forget, you promised me. "

"My dear, patience is a virtue." Ryan shook her finger and lowered his voice. "It's only three thousand dollars now. Do you think Mr. Wilson is worth that little money?"

What is going on now is a charity dinner gathered by celebrities. The charity auction is an indispensable activity. The best supporting volleyball ‘Wilson’ in the hearts of countless people is the item being auctioned.

"Five thousand dollars, now five thousand dollars..."

"Six thousand dollars, the tenth bid is six thousand dollars." The hostess who temporarily acted as the auctioneer was ostentatious and joking. "This is no ordinary volleyball.'Wilson' may win this year's Oscar. Best supporting actor."

Her words drew a burst of laughter from below, and then more number plates gathered.

"Seven thousand dollars..."

"Eight thousand dollars..."

"Ten thousand dollars..."

"Fifteen thousand dollars!"

When this price code appeared, the venue suddenly became quiet, saying that "Wilson" is a movie prop, and the price is already very high.

Seeing the little girl's eyesight, even though she was obviously pretending, Ryan still stuffed the number plate into his hand.

"16,000 U.S. dollars!"

The little girl's crisp voice and unusually attractive eyeballs, after noticing the shifted gaze, she stuck out her tongue mischievously.

At first, some people thought she was messing around, but after seeing who she was and who was sitting next to her, they suddenly understood that this was definitely not the little girl deliberately making trouble.

"Whose child is this? Why come to join in the fun?"

Perhaps it was because the scene was relatively quiet, and the voice of a young girl came from the other side, which made Taylor glaring at him, but there were too many people in the banquet hall to see who it was.

"Twenty thousand dollars!" It was the same female voice just now.

"Twenty-one thousand dollars!" Taylor did not show weakness.

"Thirty thousand dollars!" This is obviously grudge.

Ryan couldn't help being a little curious. This kind of charity auction rarely appeared tit-for-tat, and when the original owner of the item wanted to buy back the items he donated, the rest of the people would basically not compete. This is the default rule in the celebrity circle.

Whose girl is this? The age of listening to the sound should not be too old.

"Thirty-one thousand dollars." With a rich man sitting next to him, Taylor wouldn't hesitate.

"Fifty thousand dollars!"

As soon as this sound came out, there was some movement in the field, and the money was not too much, but such a figure used to buy a prop volleyball, it was a bit of a loser.

Many people followed the direction of the sound and looked over, while Ryan followed most people's gazes and saw the girl who was obviously in the rebellious period with an unruly face.

The girl was not alone either. There was a slightly older young man sitting beside her. Ryan looked at him a little familiar, but couldn't think of who it was.

"Really annoying!"

Taylor has indeed restrained a lot recently, but it is only in front of Ryan and others, and she is not polite to strangers. Her voice seems to be muttering, but it spreads clearly far away.

"Five thousand dollars!" Although she couldn't see the other person, she deliberately stuck out her tongue.

"Sixty thousand dollars!"

"Sixty-one thousand dollars!"

"Seventy thousand dollars!"

"Seven thousand dollars!"

"Eighty thousand dollars..."

"Ryan, UU reading , what shall we do?" The little girl looked at her for help. Ryan did not speak, but gave an encouraging look.

Five minutes later, the staff sent Mr. Wilson over. The little girl hugged the volleyball, pointed in the direction of the sound, and wrinkled her nose.

Is it worth buying a volleyball for a hundred thousand dollars? Ryan didn't care at all, Taylor was his favorite sister, as long as she was happy.

"I don't know who that person is." After all, he was a person who grew up in the upper class. Although Taylor was young, he knew a lot of things.

"I don't know." Ryan shook his head.

"They are the sons and daughters of a madman." It was a director of Paramount next to him who was speaking. "With that kind of father's teaching, can I expect them to understand the rules?" (To be continued.) ()
