Chapter 1076: Donnie's Invitation
The promoter of the film is not a vegetarian either, and immediately increased the promotion of the movie by taking advantage of this trend, so that more people know that there is a comedy film that has been released, and it is a good film that even Leila and Roy have seen and thought is funny.
In this regard, Leila and they did not care. The movie is really interesting and makes them happy, so it is okay to use their fame to promote the movie. If it were them, I'm afraid they would have made the same choice.
Hollywood says it's not big, it's a lot smaller, and no one knows when it will be useful to others?
There is an old saying in the East, many friends have many roads. No one would say anything about this little thing.
And this summer file made Leila very happy, "Transformers 3" locked the annual box office list in advance with a global box office of nearly 900 million.
Counting the entire summer file, she is definitely the one who has the last laugh. One company will carve up a large piece of the tempting summer cake. But she knows that now is not the time to laugh, because just when the summer file was still full of gunsmoke, another predator also began to show its hideous minions "Avatar" began to focus on publicity.
When it comes to publicity, Leila can definitely be the first person to win more with less, but director Cameron is also a person who pays a lot of attention to publicity, and is also a person who is very willing to spend money on it. It can be seen from "Titanic" that the money he spent on publicity at that time was unimaginable to other movies.
But also because of the appearance of him and the big ship, super blockbusters and super publicity all came out. There are successes, there are failures, and in general, there are more successes. As a result, more investors began to throw money into it.
It cannot be denied that such a money-throwing action has indeed made a lot of films that make the audience cheer, and it has also increased the box office results again and again.
Lyra will notice the arrival of Avatar at home thanks to Donnie's arrival. He's here to invite Roy and Leila to the premiere of his new movie.
"Are you sure it's a good day?Christmas?" Layla shrugged, not thinking it would be a very desirable day to go out. Maybe she's too homely, anyway, she definitely doesn't want to run out to watch a movie at that time.
"What can I do? I'm not a publisher. Donnie sat across from her and teased little Eli with a toy: "If it weren't for the movie, I'd definitely like to stay home with my son." ”
Leila glared at him angrily: "You want to be at home with your son, and you still send the invitation?"
"Hey, hey. Donnie smiled: "Isn't there a saying in the East, 'Happiness and hardship are shared together'?
"Are you sure it's not 'difficult'?" Leila complained, but still decided to go over, who called him an artist under his own company, what if he didn't even give this face.
Donnie leaned over to her: "Boss, give me a thorough explanation, how is Cameron's movie this time? You also know that there are not many great competitors in this Christmas schedule except for "Avatar". It's not that I'm bragging to you, anyway, I think in this "Sherlock Holmes", my acting skills are quite good. ”
Leila narrowed her smile in his questioning, "To be honest, you still don't want to overpower him. Seeing how obscene he smiled, you know that he must have the intention of suppressing the director who is the number one creator of the box office in film history. Unfortunately, this wish could not be fulfilled by him.
"Is it really that powerful?" Donnie was shocked by her serious look: "There is no chance of winning at all?"
"Not at all! It's not that your acting skills are good, or whether the movie is good, but "Avatar" is too strong, you are not a heavyweight player, what kind of competition are you talking about?"
"Is it that exaggerated?" Donnie was a little unconvinced.
After Iron Man brought him back into the ranks of Hollywood's A-list movie stars, he was very picky about the script. picked and chose "Sherlock Holmes", the director was good, the other actors were also good, the plot was also great in his opinion, there was not much to complain about, and the most important thing was that his acting skills played very well.
Before he asked her, he really felt that even if his movie was bad, it wouldn't be as bad as "Avatar".
What about investing hundreds of millions? Now Hollywood blockbusters are embarrassed to sell without investing one or two hundred million yuan. But it's not unheard of millions of movies that have hit hundreds of millions, isn't the Mo Lan in front of him the most direct example? People directly won the global box office of 300 million yuan with 100,000 yuan, and I don't know how many people have been swollen in the face.
But now in her mouth, she has become a loser who doesn't even have the strength to fight, that's not what he wants to believe!
Although she was embarrassed to destroy his expectations, Layla still hoped that he could be mentally prepared in advance, lest she see the actual situation hit even harder.
"It's a shame it's that good. Leila patted him on the shoulder, "Don't forget that he did some of it with us in post." I dare say it's a movie that will drive people all over the world crazy. ”
Hearing what she said seriously, Donnie's brows also furrowed: "What do you mean, can he still surpass the box office of "Titanic"?"
Leila smiled and didn't say anything more. She knew that even if she told the truth now, he wouldn't believe it. How do you want him to believe that a movie can win 2.7 billion in the world? More than 10 years ago, 1.8 billion still occupies the first place in film history, and no one believes that anyone will be able to break through.
In this I don't believe it, the box office of her movies has also contributed a lot of authenticity, who told her that several of her films have reached more than one billion, but they are always so close to the door, but they can't grab the last few hundred million?
As a result, those who were expecting the box office record to be broken were disappointed again and again, and finally thought that they probably couldn't break it all these years.
Donnie scratched at his hair and started to worry too. It's rare that he likes a script, wouldn't it be a pity if he was really suppressed too much? He really thinks that he in that movie is an innovation, and he should be loved by many audiences.
After Downey left, Roy asked Lyra, "Can Avatar really break the No. 1 box office record in film history?" In fact, she had revealed some similar meanings before, but he didn't take it too seriously at that time, after all, no matter how powerful it was, it had nothing to do with them, and their company did not arrange the release of the film on that schedule.
It's different now, Donnie and he are friends who don't know each other, and if he is really crushed, he will feel very uncomfortable in his heart.
