章 76: Chapter 78
Beverly Hills, a well-known rich and celebrity colony in North America, is located on the south hillside of Cruise Manor, which occupies half of the hill alone. This is the residence of Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise, who is on the way to the super king, and it is also a paparazzi And the focus of media attention, every move of him and his beautiful wife can easily attract the attention of the American public.
The morning sun had just climbed into the sky, Tom Cruise went out of the gym, took a towel to wipe off the sweat from his head, heard Nicole Kidman's greeting, first took all today's newspapers from the newspaper rack , And then slowly walked into the restaurant.
"My dear, your breakfast."
Just sitting at the dining table, Nicole Kidman brought coffee and porcelain plates and placed them in front of him.
Picking up the coffee cup and taking a sip, Tom Cruise didn't immediately enjoy his breakfast. Instead, he opened the newspaper. Nicole Kidman, who was sitting across from him, frowned, as if he wanted to say something, but finally endured it.
Turning to the entertainment page, Tom Cruise only took a few glances, and the corners of his mouth rose up, looking in a good mood.
"Despite the collection of characters and magnificent scenes in "Break into Death Island", the story is old-fashioned and the plot design is unsatisfactory. This is the kind of movie that we will soon forget after seeing it. It is a typical American fool entertainment film!"
⌒, it is obvious that caa and 20th Century Fox's propaganda action for "Break into Death Island" has begun.
"The action is cool or cool, the design is too strong; the plot is clichéd, and the logic is too bad..."
Even knowing that most of these are the results of his own public relations, Tom Cruise still opened the entertainment pages of newspapers and browsed them endlessly. It seems that by virtue of these, "Break into Death Island" will become a super lousy rejected by the audience. sheet.
However, in the next few newspapers, Tom Cruise saw a lot of negative comments about "Interview with the Vampire".
"The film is flashy and verbose. The acting skills of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt are not enough for the vampires they perform!"
"A numb movie, a so-called hodgepodge..."
Seeing this, Tom Cruise understood that Warner Bros.'s propaganda department was not idle either. While praising its films, like them, they did not hesitate to strike at their competitors.
The phone in the living room rang suddenly, and Nicole Kidman hurried out, and walked back with the cordless phone ten seconds later.
"Pat's phone." She handed it over.
After answering the cordless phone, Tom Cruise heard the numbers reported by his agent, his face gradually darkened.
"Tom..." Seeing Cruise put down the phone, Nicole Kidman tentatively asked, "How much did our film get at the box office on the first day?"
"$13.89 million!"
This number sounds pretty good. If it can be maintained in the next two days, maybe the film's first week of box office can reach 40 million U.S. dollars, and winning the weekend box office championship is definitely not a problem.
"What about "Break into Death Island"?" Nicole Kidman asked again.
"10.13 million dollars!"
Hearing the number mentioned by Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman immediately understood the reason for the change in his face. Her famous husband contributed a whole lot to the box office of "Interview with the Vampire" yesterday. $3 million!
In other words, if no one else is doing tricks, the real first-day box office of "Interview with the Vampire" is $10.89 million! Only more than 700,000 US dollars higher than "Brave to Death Island", while the latter has only 2,512 theaters in the first week, the former has as many as 2,689!
Nicole Kidman knows that from the director to the actors, the other party is basically regarded as a relatively poor group of people in the circle. Presumably, the first day of the box office of "Break into Death Island" did not have much water, and these people's box office calls The power is really limited, even if they are added together, they are not as good as the opposite Cruise. Could it be that the Super Bowl midfield advertising effect is so terrifying?
But she did not know that Tom Cruise's face changed because of the other two numbers!
With the expansion of the screening scale, more and more people watched the film. The survey and consulting company hired by Fox in the 20th century collected more real audience feedback. The audience's reputation of "Interview with the Vampire" was 7% from midnight. The score of "a" above 19 quickly dropped to 68.5%, while the "a" score of the competitor "Cross to Death Island" dropped by only 3 percentage points, still as high as 89%. !
Although the first day to watch "Courage to Death Island" must be action movie fans or tendents, but "Interview with the Vampire" also has many book fans and his own fans?
Even if arrogant like Tom Cruise, he understands one of the simplest truths in the industry, the sum of the summer commercial films, media ratings and professional film critics' reputation and multiplied by two times can't compare to what the audience's reputation can reflect. Film market acceptance, the first two are just propaganda means, the latter represents market response!
More importantly, according to the feedback from the survey company, during the screening of "Interview with the Vampire", there were various degrees of early exit!
Yesterday morning, Tom Cruise went to watch "Courage to Death Island", a single-round artistic expression, "Interview with the Vampire" finished the film, but the summer and all the films, art has never Neither is the determinant of market revenue!
For a moment, he even had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Tom Cruise's new game is defeated..."
"Superstars cannot withstand the impact of the new director..."
Don't think about it, Tom Cruise also knows that the media will be ridiculed by the time. He has gone so smoothly these years. Countless people are eager for him to be unlucky and look good at jokes and step on a few feet by the way.
Thinking of this, he picked up the cordless phone and dialed the agent's number, "Pat, I have something to discuss with you, okay! See you in caa in half an hour!"
"Tom..."
There was an admonishing voice on the phone. Pat Kingsley obviously knew that Tom Cruise was not actually the kind of star that can be reassuring. If it weren't for her, Caa and PR, he Where can there be such a healthy image as it is now, and the arrogant personality and belief issues alone will cause countless troubles.
"Interview with the Vampire" has just been released. There must be reporters and paparazzi guarding around your house. Don't talk nonsense!" No one in the pillow knows these stars better than the agent.
"I see." Tom Cruise hung up impatiently, stood up and said to Nicole Kidman, "I'll go out."
"Do you need me to accompany you?"
"no need!"
He strode towards the garage, and a blue supercar quickly rushed out and went straight to the gate of the manor.
When going out to turn, the speed of the car will inevitably slow down. A large number of journalists, paparazzi, carrying cameras, cameras and tape recorders, flocked to the sides of the sports car. The voice of words.
"Tom, the first day of "Interview with the Vampire" box office and word of mouth have been released, can you talk about your opinion?"
"Mr. Cruise, did Brad Pitt and Kirsten Dunst actually kissed during the filming? I heard that the Child Protection Association has intervened in investigations?"
Hearing this question, Tom Cruise thought of Warner Bros for the first time. They must be doing something like this.
In an instant, his already gloomy mood became a lot worse.
"Mr. Cruise! It was revealed that you had seen "Breakthrough Island" yesterday. Can you comment on this movie?"
Suddenly, a louder voice sounded, even through the window glass, Tom Cruise could hear clearly, "Also, according to the data released by Warner Bros. in the media this morning, The audience's reputation of "Fate Island" completely beats "Interview with the Vampire". Warner believes that "Break into Fate Island" will definitely come from behind and win this week's box office champion. If you lose the weekly box office champion, will this be a good match for you Movie choices have an impact?"
Subconsciously, Tom Cruise stepped on the brakes. It was like a tortoise-speed sports car and completely stopped. You must know that there are two days left this week. The future box office development is still unknown. In the eyes of the reporter, it seems like his The movie has been a complete failure!
The audience's reputation of "Break into Death Island"? Tom Cruise sneered a few times in his heart, thinking that he should do something, after all, he is a superstar with a super appealing power!
There is no public relations, no agent, no deep-minded Nicole Kidman, and no one can stop Tom Cruise. If Duke stood here, he would have guessed that Pat Kingsley and The caa is packed in layers. In fact, a guy with an arrogant and arrogant personality will definitely speak without hesitation!
The window of the sports car was slowly lowered, and all the reporters were stunned, and then countless camera shots and tape recorders were aimed at the faces in the windows.
"Is "Risk to Death Island" great? I don't think so, this is a film full of errors everywhere!"
Shrugging pretendingly, Tom Cruise suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, showing a trademark smile, without the reporter even asking, he jumped out one sentence after another about "Brave to Death Island".
"As you all know, I have worked with the military and filmed military-themed movies like "Rising Clouds". As long as you look at it with a more serious eye, you will find that "Brave to Death Island" is full of errors. The error is very low-level, and it has seriously affected the logic of the film and the reality of the subject matter, and even makes people wonder whether the director Duke Rosenberg is going to shoot a film with realism or a pure fantasy film! "
Hearing Tom Cruise's always confident words, the reporter and the paparazzi were as excited as they were licked. They could see that there was no one else on the sports car to remind Cruise that they would definitely dig out some tough materials today!
"Tom! Tom!"
When a reporter asked questions, the others remained silent tacitly, "Tom, can you point out a few low-level mistakes in "Course to Death Island"?"
