Chapter 34 Reception
No matter how high-end the cocktail party, the form is similar.
It is usually in the form of a buffet, and several familiar people gather together to chat enthusiastically.
Of course, a deck area is also set up.
The "Huang Feihong" series successfully entered the North American market, and the starring Wu Jing's status has risen, and the director and Paohui are even more so.
Disney helped hold this cocktail party. In addition to introducing the company's employees to meet Xu Hui, it was more of a public relations event. For example, a woman in her fifties who was chatting with Xu Hui, who was a member of the Foreign Press Association.
"I like the love you show in the movie. The interaction between Huang and his girlfriend is very beautiful! It reminds me of my first love..."
"Thank you for your praise. In fact, Italian movies also have many beautiful memories. The director I especially like, Benardo Betorucci, also has many love-related whispers..."
Well, this aunt is Italian!
After a brief chat, Paohui apologized and said goodbye, and Wu Jing was waving to him.
The two sat in the booth and whispered in Chinese.
"Disney wants to make an action movie, I'll be the leading actor..."
"What do you think?"
Wu Jing's expression was a little excited.
After all, it is Hollywood, the center of world movies.
Xu Hui knew very well that the United States is now paying more and more attention to the Chinese market. Instead of letting Wu Jing stay in Hollywood, it is better to let him return to China and become a director.
The "Wolf Warrior" series can be launched!
However, Paohui still respects Wu Jing's own wishes.
“…I want to stay in the United States and learn how they make movies.”
"Okay, but, I have to wait for the filming of "The King's Wind"!"
"Don't worry!"
Since people want to learn, Paohui will not and will not be willing to stop him.
Maybe after two years of study in Hollywood, the effect will be better if "Wolf Warrior" is filmed again?
...
Yaya has been following Xu Hui, and there is no way. Her communication level is limited to 'yes', 'no'...
Even elementary school students are worse than those!
She now hates why she hasn't learned English well.
The young lady was dressed very well tonight, with a big red evening dress customized by Dior.
Yaya is very suitable for wearing such brightly colored clothes, which can make it look more beautiful and charming.
A few young people probably felt jealous and wanted to invite her to dance. She couldn't let go and declined with a smile.
"…Aren't you a dancer? Why don't you want to dance?"
Paohui couldn't help asking.
“…I’m a little scared!”
"What's scary about this? Although foreigners are very enthusiastic, as long as you clearly refuse, they won't do anything in public!"
As he spoke, Paohui picked up the small biscuits on the table and stuffed them into his mouth, chewed them a few times.
The eyes lit up and the taste was really good!
“…Then I’ll go dance!”
Yaya looked at Paohui, put down her wine glass, and walked towards the dance floor in the center.
"Go! Let those foreigners see our oriental beauties!"
Paohui was addicted to the small biscuits and responded casually.
"May…"
Paohui looked up and said it was Jenny, the female reporter from the Hollywood Reporter who had interviewed him in Foshan before.
"Jenny, I'm happy to see you!"
The two hugged each other.
"By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet. "Huang Feihong" won the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film nomination!"
"Thanks!"
"Do you like eating this kind of cookies?"
Jenny looked at Xu Hui, who was filled with small biscuits, and asked curiously.
“…Not it, I’m mainly a little hungry…”
Paohui smirked, but insisted on holding the plate...
"Xu, do you have time? I want to talk to you alone?"
"Now?"
Xu Hui looked at Yaya, who was dancing in the middle of the dance floor and nodded.
...
Chinese living in North America, including a group of international students, have recently been brainwashed by a movie called "The Man of Huang Feihong Should Be Self-reliant".
They like Huang Feihong shown in the movie, and they also admire Sun Yat-sen and Lu Haodong.
The more you wander outside, the more you miss the most authentic hometown!
The Wong Feihong series was first decided to introduce it, and the target audience was these Chinese and North American students.
But unexpectedly, the appeal of action movies does not have the distinction between race and national boundaries.
The small deal that I promised casually turned into a gold mine that could lay eggs!
Disney's annual financial disclosure, relying on "Wang Feihong", Disney actually received nearly $50 million in revenue!
Compared with other series of movies, such as Pirates of the Caribbean, "Wong Fei-Hong" has no benefits at all, but this movie has nothing to do with Disney from beginning to end, and they are only used for distribution and a small amount of promotion.
Unintentionally planting willows and willows to form a shade!
Last month, the second part of "Huang Feihong" was released in North America. The same period included "Legend of Narnia 3" and "The Deadly Companion Travel" starring Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie. The competitors are strong.
Then, "Men Should Strengthen Self-Reliance" beat two major North American productions and won $42 million in the first week.
In the second week, it fell slightly, with $37 million in revenue;
Week 3, $22 million;
The fourth week has not yet ended, and the cumulative box office has exceeded 100 million!
It is rare that the North American market has far surpassed China and Europe.
When "Hero" won the box office championship in the single week of North American, it caused a sensation in the entire North American film industry. "Men Should Be Self-Strength" almost completed three consecutive championships, which was like an earthquake for the entire Hollywood.
Although Hollywood has never released big-scale movies in January and February, it is lost if it loses the weekly box office championship!
As a magazine dedicated to studying North American films, The Hollywood Reporter is of course very concerned about this movie.
Jenny's last interview was effective, and many people said they had re-reached the filmmakers on the other side of the ocean.
This time, "Men Should Be Self-reliant" achieved another success, and the magazine owner wanted Jenny to have another exclusive interview.
The time is set at noon tomorrow.
Paohui was curious about what Jenny asked him for!
...
The two sat opposite each other.
"Hmm, do you know Hollywood-style PR?"
"I know, I just use the money to buy the prize!"
Paohui concluded in a concise and concise manner.
"…But, many people may not be able to get awards even if they spend money. Do you know why?"
"The problem with the movie itself?"
I haven't really studied this Paohui.
He stopped chewing and looked at Jenny seriously.
"In addition to the movie itself, the more important thing is that some directors do not show their enthusiasm for awards!"
Jenny gave an example: "For example, David Finch, his movies have been able to win Oscars for a long time, but the Oscars have always ignored her. The reason is very simple. He himself did not show his special enthusiasm for awards!"
"…So, what do you want to say about this to me?"
Chapter completed!
