Blackstone Code Chapter 1205: Premier
Laltimore's tourism industry is well developed, and it receives about 20 million tourists each year.
According to the official data, this number is increasing every year, which is almost equal to one-third of the federal people who come here every year!
Of course, there are also some overseas tourists among them. The films and culture of the Federation are gradually being accepted by more people with the comprehensive strength of the Bayer Federation in the world.
This principle is easy to understand. Just like someone was punched, or someone was punched by the Federation, they would definitely analyze, why the Federation would win?
There's always a reason!
A country's understanding of another country cannot be purely from a military or economic perspective, but should be understood from an all-round perspective, which makes it not difficult to export the federation's culture to the outside world.
A large number of federal films, books, music and other cultural products are exported overseas. In addition to bringing a lot of profits to the businessmen of the Federation, it also makes more people have a vague idea about the Federation. Comprehensive understanding.
The inclusive and open culture of the Commonwealth attracts many people, and more and more people begin to choose the Commonwealth as a must-see choice for international travel!
It's tourist season again, and the streets are full of people!
People's attention is on those attractions, they don't notice, the real big stars are around them!
The three ate a "bullet steak", which is often eaten by the protagonist in a Western movie. He has a three-barreled machine gun and his favorite thing is to put the steak on the barrel and shoot !
Continuous firing will cause the barrel to heat up quickly enough to cook the steak, plus some... gunpowder smell, and this becomes the very famous "bullet steak"!
Of course, the cooking in the restaurant will be less primitive and safer.
In fact, these things are not much different from ordinary steaks, they are just cooked on a copper tube made of pure copper and made like a gun barrel.
Just because the utensils used to cook it are different from ordinary ones, its price is several times that of other steaks.
The people of Laltimore are very profitable, so are the merchants, and so are the natives.
On the way, Lynch met a lot of people who were selling star autographs with more than a dozen clipboards in their hands. These were all local residents.
They usually have their own jobs, and they may be extras in their spare time, but more often they run around.
The so-called "running field" means "chasing the stars" with a backpack and a tablet.
This is the capital of movies, and stars of all sizes come and go here almost every day. The locals have their own channels for these news, and all they have to do is to ask for autographs.
And these signatures are the signatures in the hands of these hawkers.
From tens of dollars to thousands of dollars, and some special treasures cost tens of thousands of dollars.
Tourists love these things, and they hope that when they go home, they will scream and envy in front of their relatives and friends and take out a writing pad signed by a star.
According to a less authoritative agency, Laltimore sells more than a million autographs of different celebrities every year, and 80% of them are fake!
Yes, almost all of them are fake.
It may be true at first, but later people find that tourists even buy autographs of celebrities they don't know, which gives them the courage and motivation to make fakes.
Anyway, all tourists need are souvenirs, and they are selling souvenirs.
You don't need to run or shout, just take out the writing board and copy it yourself, and a product with dozens of dollars will appear, which is no slower than printing money.
This has also led to a number of signature verification agencies in Laltimore, where handwriting masters can verify the authenticity of the signature, and they will issue a certificate to the signature to prove its authenticity.
Of course, these agencies also sell signatures, but the price of signatures here is much more expensive than those sold by people selling them on the side of the road.
"Don't sign autographs, you don't know if those people are fans or autograph dealers, I don't want my kindness to be treated as a deal!"
That's what Penny told Lynch, but luckily the three were never found.
In the afternoon they went back to the hotel to rest for a while to prepare for the night's premiere.
The premiere is set for five o'clock, which is... a bit subtle.
The Royal Palace is one of the five major theaters in Laltimore, and it is very luxurious. It was originally built for a biographical film, and the protagonist is of course the emperor.
In that era when there was not much film technology, in order to pursue a more realistic texture, the producers spent huge sums of money to create a miniature real palace.
It was not demolished after the film was shot, but sold to a merchant.
The businessman then transformed it into a multi-purpose theater, where not only movies, but also operas, restaurants, meeting rooms, etc. can be watched, and it also has a high status in Laltimore.
This premiere is scheduled to take place at the Palace Cinema. The film is about 80 minutes long. After the movie is over, it's time for dinner.
In order to win this award, Fox Pictures naturally has to be willing to spend money.
Anyone who attends the premiere can enjoy a sumptuous dinner after the broadcast in the huge restaurant, big enough to serve six hundred people at once!
In Laltimore, perhaps only the restaurant here is so huge. After all, its value is to reflect the scene of the royal family entertaining the nobles in the movie.
Some people saw what he was thinking, and some people were pretending to be stupid.
A little after four o'clock, Lynch and the two girls were up and ready to be the last "star" to appear, so there was still some time.
A lot of celebrities were invited to the premiere, and from three o'clock, the outside of the Emperor Cinema was crowded.
Locals, journalists and tourists of all kinds, people chanted the name of every star who walked the red carpet like crazy.
Hot people make it feel like a holiday!
The presence of the main production team has pushed the atmosphere to its peak!
People hysterically shouted the names of the actor, director and other actors.
As a social animal, human emotions are very complex. With the spread of group fanaticism, people who were not very interested in or were not so blindly fanatical about stars also began to go crazy!
Little Fox looked at all this and finally smiled with satisfaction.
It's the only way to get to the top of his life, and just a few years ago he could only offer some advice to his loan-sharking father in a dank basement.
But a few years later, he not only put the management knowledge he learned in college to use, but also achieved one of his life goals, becoming the president of a public company and a major shareholder.
As long as the film critics' comments come out after tonight, Fox Films will be listed on the Bupen the day after tomorrow, and then the hot box office will directly ignite the enthusiasm of the market, and the stock price will rise wildly!
He may not be the most powerful studio president, but he must be the youngest!
"How much more?"
He turned to his assistant with the glass in his hand, who glanced downstairs, "There's one last car!"
Yes, there's one last car, the lead actress and the first supporting actress are not in the creative team. It has been discovered that people realize that there must be someone very important to the premiere. , so the two most important roles were left and arranged separately.
The flashes of the scene didn't stop as an ivory-white, silver-edged limousine approached from afar.
The first to come out is Nelly, her name is chanted, and those rabid movie fans keep pushing the bottom line of security guards.
Penny was next, and the voices were louder and the anticipation for the last person in the car increased.
Someone shouted Lynch's name loudly at this time. It only took a few breaths before everyone began to shout Lynch's name.
The moment Lynch got out of the car was the first climax of this premiere!
Some foreign tourists and foreign reporters don't know Lynch, and they keep asking people around who it is.
In the palace theater, some people looked at Lynch, who was cheered like a returning emperor, with different expressions.
Some people like him, and some people don't like him. Some old academic filmmakers don't like Lynch very much, and movies are gradually being called "art".
And they are the founders of art.
There are many reasons for these people to dislike Lynch.
For example, he is very young, and they are old, and the times are passing by them, which also makes them hate those young people more and more.
For example, he is half a screenwriter. In the film industry, screenwriters...are always a small group of people who are not welcome.
Let's say he's a guy from a production company~IndoMTL.com~ These guys don't understand art at all, they're always messing around with filming.
Like...he's rich!
There is nothing wrong with being rich, but the fault lies in the palace of art, which is higher than life!
Unfortunately, they have to show their respect to Lynch again, because this is the Federation, and money is everything!
Lynch stepped on the red carpet with two hot girls in her arms, and a flood of fans flocked to them. Fortunately, the security guards stopped these lunatics.
Every time he stops, the crowd screams, every time he waves to the crowd, he gets a positive response, and people are totally in a mood!
Lynch was going blind after walking the red carpet!
He admired the two little girls in the Year of the Snake, who did not feel any discomfort in the face of such a strong light source.
Signing their names on the sign-in book, the three finally waved to the crowd before entering the theater.
"It's finally over..."
