Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 692: I have few friends

The premiere date of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was finally set in mid-May, after Memorial Day in North America.

Although Charlotte made a lot of adjustments to the special effects scenes and music of the film after the screening, but after drawing a lot of people from the "Lord of the Rings 1" crew, it was completed in time.

—The bounce event that Disney Pictures Chairman Robert Iger worried about the most did not happen.

In fact, by now, Robert Iger has no longer worried about "Pirates of the Caribbean".

On the one hand, they are done, regardless of success or failure, they have already done what they should do, and the rest can only pray;

On the other hand, the pre-sale results of "Pirates of the Caribbean" are still very good—

Thirty-two million!

—As an original movie that is not a sequel, there are no big stars besides Johnny Depp. This kind of pre-sale results are already quite exaggerated.

Of course, this may not be comparable to the pre-sale results of the sequel of super-large IP movies such as "Star Wars", but it is also quite good.

This achievement is a manifestation of Charlotte's box office appeal as a director, and on the other hand, it is also the result of Disney's publicity.

-With this pre-sale box office bottoming, Robert Iger feels that even if the box office performance of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is not satisfactory, it will not be much worse.

So, by now, Iger's mentality has been relatively relaxed.

In contrast, it is Disney’s president Michael Eisner who has a rather complicated mentality about Pirates of the Caribbean.

As the head of Disney, he not only hopes that his company's flagship movie can be successful, but also feels that once the movie's box office succeeds, it will prove that he has a price difference in the perspective of watching movies.

"Knowing this, I shouldn't have promised Iger to use this matter for publicity!"

Disney's "tyrant" secretly regretted it.

In short, whether the people involved are looking forward to it or worrying, the premiere date of "Pirates of the Caribbean" has arrived unstoppably.

On this day, movie theaters all over North America have turned into ports in "Pirates of the Caribbean"-this kind of decoration and arrangement of movie theaters consistent with the current main movie style is a very common means of publicity.

And in front of these cinemas, there was no accident that there was a long line again.

"I didn't expect so many people!"

Petunia sighed and suddenly felt that it was a mistake to agree to watch the premiere with Leonard.

"With so many people, I don't know when it will be our turn!"

"It shouldn't take too long!"

Leonard is also a little uncertain,

"However, if you watch the trailer, this movie will definitely look great! Let's wait!"

"All right!"

Petunia nodded.

"Husband Sally's movie should be as good as ever!"

Petunia comforted herself.

As a friend Charlize made before she became famous, Petunia actually received a lot of care—

Charlize has introduced several crews specifically for Petunia, all of which are relatively important roles.

However, after Penny's performance, the response was always tepid.

Sometimes, even if her performance was good, the audience couldn't remember her in the end.

-In this world, there is such a kind of person, who obviously has good resources and innate conditions, and he can count as hard work, but he just can't become popular.

—Penny thinks she is that kind of person.

So, by now, Petunia no longer asks Charlize for help, letting her introduce herself to the role.

She even gave up her star dream altogether and started to work on medicine sales down-to-earth.

This makes her a good income.

However, she did not break contact with Charlize because of this.

It's because the industry is different, and there is no direct interest connection, the friendship between the two is more pure.

At least, because of the entanglement in her heart, Petunia was unwilling to go to the movie starring Charlize in person. Now this problem no longer exists.

As for Charlize's husband, the film of the great director Charlotte Booth, Penny is also precious.

In fact, Petunia has become a fan of Charlotte.

She once begged Charlize to take her and Leonard to see the scene where Charlotte directed the film.

Although Penny and the others did not talk to the big director directly in order not to disturb the other party's work, afterwards, Charlize helped Penny get Charlotte Booth's signature.

-You know, unlike the stars, Charlotte, as a director, is essentially a behind-the-scenes worker, so he doesn't have many opportunities to sign his fans.

—It’s something to be proud of to get his signature.

Unfortunately, at the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean", Petunia originally had work to do, so she gave away the tickets for the premiere that Charlize gave.

As a result, the work schedule was cancelled and her boyfriend Leonard asked her to watch a movie, and she also came.

—In the end, what I saw was a long line...

In contrast, the situation on Emily and Jaina is much better—

Because they have not graduated from Stanford, the two beautiful girls have relatively plenty of time.

At least, there is still time to line up early for the movie premiere.

Although there is no flower-guard messenger, two young and beautiful girls watch the midnight movie together, which is a bit dangerous in a city like Los Angeles.

But on the one hand, Emily’s combat effectiveness is indeed sturdy;

On the other hand, the two came directly by car this time.

—To celebrate Emily's internship in this well-known firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers, Emily's father gave her a second-hand beetle that looked very good.

The bright yellow car body is very in line with the girl's aesthetic, and there is also a cute wasp ornament in the car.

Emily drove this car wherever she went recently.

-With a car, many dangerous places can be avoided directly.

Anyway, Jaina felt so.

Besides, she still has a hidden means—

She was able to confuse an adult man instantly, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com put him into a state of sleep.

Although it is only once in seven days, it is enough at the critical moment.

—This is the ability that Jaina has experienced several crises after becoming a reincarnation, and gained from the space of the main god.

There are many magical abilities in that space, but there are only a handful of them that can be brought back to reality.

But even so, Jaina still had a feeling of becoming a superhero.

-Every American teenager has a superhero dream hidden in the heart!

Only limited by the secrecy restrictions of the main god, Jaina was still unable to tell Emily about this.

However, she is still very confident that she can protect Emily at a critical moment.

—Although the two always like to quarrel, Emily has always been sturdy protecting her who likes to provoke trouble...
