Chapter 441 Very high attendance

Los Angeles at the beginning of May was hot enough, even in the afternoon, it didn't feel much cooler, crowded in the shooting area, Jarvis constantly adjusted the camera lens, and photographed the figures walking on the red carpet, even if they came. Just a small role in the film, he still showed his attitude towards superstars.

This is the most anticipated film this year. The content related to The Lord of the Rings and The Two Towers are all hot spots of public attention. If it is a small role in a normal film, maybe you don't need to pay too much attention, but who knows which is not famous. Character, will be as popular as Alessandra Ambrosio in the first movie?

Jarvis remembered very clearly that Arwen's dolls and models were second only to Legolas in sales among all the characters in the first episode.

Why hasn't Duke come yet?

The other cameraman next to him seemed to be talking to himself. Jarvis knew him and replied, Donnie, that's the soul of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and of course it's going to be the finale.

I don't care if it's the finale, the man named Downey put down the camera and stood on tiptoe to look at the end of the red carpet. I only care if he will show up with Ivanka Trump.

Just now, a Rolls-Royce parked in front of the red carpet, and two people in black and white dresses walked over with their fingers interlocked.

The photography area immediately boiled, and all the reporters were crowding forward. If it wasn't for the security personnel forming a human wall, they would have rushed to the two people on the red carpet.

Downey and Jarvis had already picked up the camera, and their fingers that pressed the shutter never stopped. Unfortunately, the two people walking on the red carpet had no sense of cooperation at all. They neither signed autographs for fans nor Take any look. It's not like the people who walked by before, slowly, almost at a normal walking speed, passing quickly on the red carpet.

Duke!

Downey couldn't help shouting, hoping that the other party could stop in front of the photography area for a while, and Jarvis also raised his voice, Ivanka. This way!

Those two people were completely different from the Hollywood couple. They had no intention of turning to this side at all. They didn't even look this way and walked to the interview area in front of the Chinese Grand Theater.

Couples in Hollywood will show their love in front of the camera, and they can't wait to tell the world how deep their relationship is through this way, but it's a pity, whether it's Duke. It's still Ivanka, who has no plans to show at all.

You don't even have Xiu's consciousness! Downey said bitterly.

Do they need a show?

The most anticipated person has walked over, Jarvis put down the camera, and said to Downey, One is a top Hollywood director. The top 100 richest person on the Forbes rich list, and the other is the heir to the billionaire fortune after the famous family. , they don't have to show at all. All the media will go after them!

Downey unwillingly glanced in front of the China Grand Theater and sighed. Indeed.

He retracted his gaze and asked in a meaningful way, What do you think the final box office of The Two Towers will be?

do not know……

Although not a professional forecaster, Jarvis said confidently. It can't be lower than The Fellowship of the Ring, right?

That's not necessarily! Downey pointed to the fan area opposite, Didn't you realize that the number of fans who came to this premiere was obviously less than last year's The Fellowship of the Ring. I suspect that the first film has already been released. It has consumed the enthusiasm of many fans...

Have you become uninformed recently? Jarvis handed over the camera and tripod to the assistant. Don't you know?

Know what? Downey looked blank.

Although the two sides work in different media, the relationship is not bad. Jarvis reminded him, The release method of The Two Towers is different from The Fellowship of the Ring and Duke's past movies, because the first movie is hot enough, The second part did not hold a preview, but at the same time as today's premiere, there are about 2,000 pre-show screenings in the United States, and many ardent Lord of the Rings fans have gone to see the pre-show...

So it is. Downey suddenly realized.

Brad Miller did not attend the premiere, but chose the nearest Nokia Plaza Theater with Pitt. When the two of them walked into the lobby of the theater, due to the early hours, they found that there were people everywhere. There is only one focus of discussion.

Hey, check the tickets soon, don't delay me watching The Two Towers!

I've been waiting for a year, please, hurry up!

There are all fans of The Lord of the Rings here, there are no terrorists, let us in...

There were too many people. Brad Miller and Pete found a corner with few people and planned to wait quietly for a while, but they didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here.

Chrissy, why are you here? Pete asked in surprise.

Why can't I be here? Chrissy didn't have any embarrassment, This is a theater, of course I'm here to watch a movie.

Brad Miller frowned and asked, The Two Towers?

Chrissy nodded directly.

Aren't you protesting all the time? Pete said again.

I don't protest anymore, I'm now a fan of The Lord of the Rings! Krishna said generously, The Fellowship of the Ring can conquer you two diehards, and of course it can conquer me too.

Pete still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Brad Miller, Everyone used to be friends, let's sit together for a while.

Countless moviegoers poured into more than 2,000 theaters across the United States on Thursday night to watch the film.

Because of the time difference, it was a little late when the New York screening was about to be shown. As the chief film critic of The New Yorker, David Dembey got out of the car and hurried into the theater. He didn't go to buy tickets. It means that they just showed their media credentials at the ticket gate. Most of the time, film critics are privileged. By virtue of their special status, they can watch movies for free.

Sorry, Mr. Denby.

It's just that his credentials were not easy to use this time, and the ticket inspector stopped him directly. The distributor has notified that all film critics, like ordinary audiences, must buy tickets to enter the venue!

What? David Denby's eyes widened immediately.

The film is about to be released. This time period is very busy. The ticket inspector has no time to say anything, so he just threw him here and continued to check other people's tickets.

David Dembey waited for a few seconds, turned his head and walked towards the entrance of the theater, only halfway through, and then changed his mind, such a popular film, if he doesn't write something to gain attention, then Too stupid!

Walking to the ticket office, David Denby bought a ticket angrily and finally entered the screening hall.

It was really too late for him to come in. There were too many people in the theater. He stood at the entrance and watched for a while. David Dembey couldn't find a suitable spot, and all the seats were almost full. the audience.

What a high attendance rate!

With a sigh in his heart, David Denby could only walk towards the far right corner, but he did not choose the nearest way, but walked through the aisles in the middle row of the cinema hall. This face is the best tool, and many older fans often give up their seats to him.

However, David Dembey walked all the way. These audiences, who were mainly 15 to 35 years old, didn't even give up their seats on their own initiative. There were not even a few people who looked at him, and some people even chased him in disgust.

Hey, I said you, hurry up, okay, you're blocking my view!

What the heck, the movie is about to start, if I miss a scene, I will never let you go!

David Denby wanted to get angry, but after seeing the huge size of the other party and the fierce look on his face, he had to speed up his steps and walked to the far right corner.

There were originally a few seats here, but after David Denby dawdled, all the other seats were filled, and only the one in the farthest corner was vacant.

Just like a film critic for the summer season, David Denby can only endure infinite anger and sit here.

The audience in the theater is waiting for The Two Towers to start, and the people outside the theater are also waiting.

Santa Monica Commercial Plaza, a chain of gift shops has just opened. The owner, Pete Ke, sits in person and instructs the staff to quickly distribute the goods. The early screening of The Two Towers is about to be released. According to the news that Edward Yang has learned in advance , the length of the film is about 2 and a half hours, which means that they will soon welcome a large number of customers.

Just like what he said at the beginning, Pete Ke's biggest business secret is to sell various peripherals of Duke films. He has some relationship with Warner Bros. in the Duke studio. Often huge sales and profits.

Although his chain stores have only opened to major cities on the west coast, from the end of May last year to the present, the surrounding area of ​​The Fellowship of the Ring has brought him nearly three million US dollars in profit. He's always concerned with being well stocked, and on the other hand he's always getting all sorts of scarce limited-edition products.

For example, this time, the Lord of the Rings Studio and Tiffany jointly launched the Lord of the Rings series of jewelry. Although the materials used are only crystal, gold and platinum, the circulation is extremely limited, not only the price is high, but also for channel sellers There is enough profit margin.

This is a peripheral product that many merchants are rushing to purchase. Except for the direct sales of Warner and Tiffany, it is difficult for ordinary merchants to get the goods.

However, he got a batch by virtue of his relationship, but the goods have not arrived in this time period!

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded, and his new partner Edward Yang walked in with a tall woman holding several boxes.

You're finally here! Pete Ke hurriedly greeted him, and asked people to take the goods from the two of them, Have you got them all?

Ten sets, one set is quite a lot!

Edward Young replied, and then introduced to Pete Ke, This is Miranda Kerr, the model I met when I was on vacation in Australia.

Pete Ke just nodded politely, and then fell into busyness again. In his eyes, every time Duke's movie was released, it was the best time for him to expand his business territory! (To be continued ^)
