Rebirth In Hollywood

Chapter 259 First Week Box Office

"A love story worse than a shipwreck!"

"Titanic itself is a serious historical event worthy of our reflection, but Ryan Jenkins put a vulgar love story that lacks logical thinking into it. The movie lacks enough creativity and is just a copy of old Hollywood love. Full of hypocrisy!"

"What's worse than the story is the hero and heroine. In the film, Ruth called Jack eighty times, and that's not counting the number of times he called him Mr. Dawson, and Jack called Ruth fifty times."

"These all show that the script is so lacking in dialogue that they can have dialogue, which shows that Ryan Jenkins's so-called never-dry inspiration has reached its limit, and his talent and potential are far below our estimates." Titanic will be a testament to his downhill and failure!"

After the movie landed in North America across the board, the "Observing the Titanic" column of the "New Englander" once again issued an attacking comment.

"Historical mistakes are everywhere in the movie, and this huge production that has spent years and hundreds of millions of costs will only make people feel extremely disappointed, perhaps because Ryan Jenkins has never been able to find his own love, "Titanic" ” focuses too much on romantic ideals and ignores the selfless virtues of credibility, responsibility and heroism that we have always mentioned and cared about!”

"Besides, there's Ryan Jenkins and Kate Winslet, which is nothing..."

These critical remarks are mixed with various praises. Although it makes people uncomfortable to watch, it has nothing to do with the overall situation, even if they shout again. No more critical remarks can stop the audience from watching the movie.

Especially as time passes by day by day, the film has generated a huge good reputation. The power of word of mouth, the direct effect brought by it, is even better than any publicity.

No surprises, no exceptions, just this summer. Horrible waves of queues have once again appeared in front of movie theaters across the United States.

"I want to watch it again!"

This sentence has become the most popular and common language among the moviegoers, even if they are heartbroken and grief-stricken during the viewing process.

In this country, monetary benefits can almost overwhelm everything. Seeing that "Titanic" is so hot, more theaters have joined the ranks of negotiations, including many theater companies that are deeply influenced by Disney.

When the time entered the last day of this weekend, the number of movie theaters in North America increased from about 3,500 to nearly 3,900. Hundreds more theaters are in negotiation, and the number of theaters next week could reach a staggering number.

The hot rhythm brings a lot of work. But neither Jenkins Pictures. It is still Paramount, 20th Century Fox and other film companies. All the staff involved in the release of this film are enthusiastic.

The motivation to make history is amazing, and the motivation to get big bonuses after the movie sells is amazing!

"Ryan, our copy is a little tight."

Jon Landau was worried in the lounge of Pittsburgh's largest theater. "At present, we are still stepping up production, I am afraid that time will be too late."

"Getting staff to work overtime, pay is not an issue."

Sitting in the chair in front of the glass window, listening to the loud thunder and rain outside, frowning. "Jon, when does the weather forecast say the rain will stop?"

"It will last two to three days." Speaking of rain. Jon Landau is more helpless than Ryan.

After the crew left Los Angeles, they headed straight to the East Coast. The entire promotional trip only went to one city, and they encountered extremely bad weather. Thunderstorms shrouded the northeastern part of the United States. Flights in Pennsylvania, New York and other regions were almost all cancelled. , the crew is temporarily trapped here.

Opening the window, thick humidity and rumbling thunder came in at the same time. Ryan looked out at the front of the theater. Hundreds of people were hurriedly dispersing, but more people stayed in front of the theater, waiting Buy tickets to watch Titanic again.

Seeing these people, Ryan couldn't help but think of the meeting with the crew just now. It was a terrifying scene that scared almost everyone.

Come to think of it, the scene of nearly a thousand girls shouting a person's name, eager to rush onto the stage and snatching him home, is absolutely chilling.

There are even many women who are too crazy, taking off their shirts on the spot, facing the camera lens, and showing the words "r-y-a-n" tattooed on their chests.

"Ryan, if you want, these girls will be waiting in line to enter your room." James Cameron deliberately mocked him at the end of the event.

"It's not just them, there are a lot of girls waiting in Hollywood." Kate Winslet is also amused.

The rain did not weaken at all. After someone came to notify, Ryan and others got into the car from the back door of the theater. Just as they were about to leave quietly, a large number of paparazzi poured out, and the flashing lights almost illuminated the gloomy sky. , The question thrown like a cannonball, even the huge thunder was suppressed.

"Mr. Jenkins, it's June 8, and it's the last day of the week. How much did "Titanic" have at the box office? How much do you expect from the premiere?"

"Ryan, the "New Englander" once again issued a critical comment, believing that the film's recent achievements are entirely a victory of computer technology, and it must not last long. Next week, the box office of the film will have a huge drop. What do you think?"

"Ryan! Ryan! Mr. Gary Graham of The New York Times thinks your cat-and-mouse and Titanic performances were a disaster and a total face show, you don't want to Respond?"

Hearing the sound from outside the car, Ryan lowered the window of the car, and the reporters, regardless of the pouring rain, shoved dozens of small tape recorders in front of him in an instant.

"The box office for the first week of the movie will be announced tomorrow, everyone just needs to wait a moment, everyone, patience is a virtue." Ryan began to talk about it again, and the reporters rolled their eyes when he heard, "Also, the movie The development of technology and the application of computer technology are just like the industrial revolution, irreversible and reversible, as for what you are talking about... Mr. Gary, sorry, who is he?"

The last sentence made the reporter pause for a moment. Although Gary Graham is not a top critic, he is also famous in the United States...

"drive!"

Just at Ryan's words, the car sped away.

After returning to the hotel and taking a shower, Ryan started to make a phone call, and asked the staff stationed in major cities across the United States to keep an eye on the local theater chains.

The crew has allocated a considerable amount of money for emergency use. Although according to the current momentum, breaking the box office record of the first week of "Jurassic Park" is inevitable, but if there is a sudden large-scale refund...

This kind of thing is not unheard of in the history of Hollywood.

As he grows older, Ryan needs to ask more and more things. Even if 99% are left to professionals, some things still need to be paid attention to.

It is not uncommon for people to have a controlling stake without being aware of it.

In the middle of the night, the rain is still falling, and the lightning that lights up from time to time can always light up half the sky. These will have an impact on how much the movie will be seated, but Ryan is annoyed that this thunderstorm hinders his travel.

Pittsburgh is less than 400 miles from New York. If you take a business jet leased by the crew, you will arrive very quickly. Even if you take the highway, more than six hours is almost enough.

What if it doesn't change after dawn? Take the highway? I'm afraid it can only move forward at a snail-like speed.

He promised Nate to celebrate her sixteenth birthday!

For an American, the sixteenth birthday means too much. He can not care that he is sixteen. After all, it has already happened once, but Natalie is different. When she was on the phone, she hesitated. The tone, Ryan still remembers.

It was probably because of his wild thoughts at night. The next day, Ryan woke up a little late. After washing up, he saw the pouring rain and the lightning flashes outside. He felt a little depressed, so he simply left the room and went to the theater packaged by the crew. Breakfast in the hotel restaurant.

Just walking into the restaurant, Ryan found that all the crew members who participated in the promotion were all waiting here, staring at him with strange eyes, as if... as if he was a monster from ancient times...

"Did something happen?"

The crowd gradually gathered around with their hands behind their backs. Ryan was very puzzled. Did he cause public anger?

"It's now~"

Kate Winslet suddenly shouted, took out her hands from behind her back, twisted it hard, and colorful bars all over the sky flew towards Ryan.

Immediately afterwards, more color bars fell on Ryan's body, and everyone's reluctantly suppressed expressions completely collapsed, and all they showed was - ecstasy!

That's right! The crew was extremely excited, even James Cameron almost laughed, and even Jon Landau's whole body shuddered.

"Ryan! We did it! We set a record! The North American first-week box office record now belongs to Titanic! It's ours!"

James Cameron came over first, first gave Ryan a big hug, and then slapped him on the back, almost killing him.

"Jim, you're murdering!" Ryan complained.

"And me, Ryan~"

Kate Winslet leaned up and stamped his face hard.

"and many more……"

Seeing that Jon Landau was covered in fat, Ryan quickly stepped aside and asked, "Who can tell me how much the first week's box office was?"

"The latest statistics, $109.53 million!"

The speaker was James Cameron. At this time, he was not only excited, but also relaxed after the huge pressure dissipated, "Ryan, "Titanic" has set a record! We have made history!" ()
