Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!

"What is your name and which newspaper company?"

"My name is George. Nuo ... Linde is a reporter for" Hollywood Online "." George. Nuosen said half of the hastily wrote himself a pseudonym.

Eric did not realize that George. Northon was lying and nodded and asked, "You just said that" The Others "is a very stupid choice to be released on November 1, what about your reason? "

George. Northon replied confidently: "It ’s very simple. Although November 1st is Halloween, there are also many horror movies that will be released during this period, but this is actually not a hot date, even good. The schedule is not counted, the total number of Box Office movies in these weeks is no different from the off-season. Since Disney and Firefly have high hopes for this movie, then it will be released on November 1st, it is not stupid, what can it be, or Say, you actually do n’t have much faith in "The Others" before you leave this movie in such a schedule as a cannon fossil cemetery? "

Eric listened to George. Northon ’s words, and could n’t help but look at each other a few more times. This middle-aged man dressed in paparazzi is much stronger than those who only know to question the star *: “Since what you can say is right , Then you should also know that in the top ten of Box Office every year of Hollywood, there will always be so many movies, their release time is neither summer nor Christmas, but they still rely on their excellent quality, squeezed into Leaderboard. "

"Mr. Williams, I understand what you said, just like the" Leaping Childhood "released a few weeks ago, Samsung Film Studio was originally not very optimistic about this movie before putting it in the unpopular ten. This month, this Box Office dark horse with only a few million costs has now won nearly 60 million Box Office USD, and may even become a competitor of "The Others". However, Mr. Williams. You did not answer my question, you The dark horse movies mentioned were put into the off-season. It was because they were not optimistic in advance. However, "The Others" was obviously a movie with high hopes by Disney and Firefly, and also won the Silver Lion Award on Venice Film Festival. /

Eric smiled slightly. The tone said confidently: "I have just answered you, as long as the quality of the film is excellent, sometimes you can ignore the schedule."

Ignore the schedule? !

George. Northon's eyes widened in surprise, and some of the more professional reporters in the crowd also showed a surprised look.

Eric is so arrogant to say this.

For the entire Hollywood, there is no Director or Producer who dare to say such words with confidence. Most people have sharpened their minds and want to put their movies in the summer or new year. Because everyone knows that a high-quality movie schedule means higher Box Office income. However, the Eric in front of him not only did the opposite, but also shouted the slogan "Ignore schedule" arrogantly.

Many paparazzi are keenly aware that this will be a very explosive topic, squeezing forward involuntarily, and at the same time pushing the recorder in hand harder in front of Eric.

George. Northon also knows that this will be a controversial topic. He even has a preliminary draft in his heart. I believe that many people will see the arrogant side of Eric Williams tomorrow, and if "The Others" does not Achieve unexpected results, then. Eric Williams will wipe the face, and will even have a big impact on his Box Office scores in the next few movies during the New Year.

However, though I thought so. George. Northon still harmlessly brought the recorder closer to the Eric and asked: "Mr. Williams, did you really mean that the movie" The Others "can completely ignore the schedule limitation and get a high amount of Box Office? "

Eric shrugged and nodded: "Since I put the movie on November 1st, I must have had such confidence in my heart."

The group of journalists outside the cordon sent out a little uproar again.

After finishing talking about Eric, he no longer ignored everyone and pulled up Virginia to walk into the theater.

"Hey, Mr. Williams. Can you explain in detail?"

"Mr. Williams, why do you have such confidence in this movie?"

"Mr. Williams ..."

In the crazy cry of the reporter behind him. Eric took the Virginia head and walked up the steps of the cinema without looking back.

Because the premiere will start at seven o'clock, the two did not go directly to the screening room. Instead, under the guidance of the staff, go to the pre-prepared lounge, where the star guests who came to the show are waiting.

Walking in the VIP channel, Virginia asked softly, "Eric, wouldn't it be wrong if you just said that?"

"Did you even have confidence in me?" Eric asked with a smile.

Virginia quickly shook his head: "No, of course I have confidence in you, but anything can happen unexpectedly, in case ... in case ... you will definitely be laughed at."

Eric squeezed the girl ’s little hand comfortably: "Relax, do n’t worry."

Virginia opened his mouth and said something, but was pulled into the lounge by Eric.

Say hello to many celebrities who came to cheer, and after about ten minutes, Disney's CEO Michael Eisner also came to the scene.

"Eric, I just heard those words on red carpet." Michael Eisner said to Eric as soon as they met.

Eric raised the eyebrow: "Mr. Eisner, don't you think my words are very inappropriate?"

Michael Eisner shook his head: "I just think it's too risky for you to say that. In fact, even I am very curious. Why do you insist on putting this movie on November 1st? Now I will do what you say Now, you should always tell me the reason. "

"Let's go over there," Eric pointed to a set of sofas not far from the wall.

Michael Eisner nodded and walked along with Eric. Although the people in the lounge all wanted to have a relationship with Eric and Michael Eisner, they were also very interesting to see that they had something to discuss. Did not lean over again.

"Actually, I had this idea long ago, probably before the release of 《Running Out of Time》." Eric said, glancing at Michael Eisner, and said: "At that time, I thought, since the end of this year, Five movies related to me have been released one after another, so why not create a beautiful Grand Slam miracle on this schedule? "

"Grand Slam, miracle?" Michael Eisner repeated the two key words in the Eric words, but did not want to understand how the word Grand Slam has anything to do with the movie, but it is not a ball game.

Eric did n’t sell it, and quickly said: "Mr. Eisner," The Others "will be released on November 1, after we spent a lot of publicity, it is certainly no problem to win the Box Office championship for two weeks. Next," Home Alone2 " Released on November 17, last year, this movie won the weekly Box Office championship for a full 10 weeks, and I have watched movies released during the same period, only "Lethal Weapon 2" and "Back to the Future Part II" can compete with "Home Alone2", but those two The crowd of the film is obviously not enough to compare with the popularity of "Home Alone2", even if this sequel Box Office will be reduced to some extent, then it is certainly no problem to win the five-week Box Office championship. Finally, on Christmas, "Sleepless in Seattle" continues to receive I have watched the Box Office championship for the great week, and I have n’t had a blockbuster this Christmas, so I can still sit down for the Box Office championship for as long as there are no strong movies, then maybe I can keep this state until the second In addition, as long as we publicize this gimmick, then several films in this 'relay race' will receive more attention at the same time, which also plays a role in the Box Office between several films. The role of mutual promotion. "

When Michael Eisner heard Eric's plan, he was shocked and unable to add it. The young people around him obviously wanted to occupy the entire New Year's class!

A weekly Box Office champion movie can also win at least 30% of a week ’s Box Office, plus Box Office not obtained in the top movie, this number will rise to at least 40%, based on the total Box Office of 600 million USD These movies will win the total Box Office of 240 million USD, which does not seem to be too much, and even the total Box Office of the first part of "Home Alone" last year has not reached. But do n’t forget, after the New Year, these movies still have at least one to three months of Box Office harvest period, and the total Box Office will definitely not be much less than the number of 240 million USD.

On average, five movies, each with at least 100 million USD Box Office.

This is the case. Among the top ten of the Box Office list this year, Firefly should occupy at least five positions. This is obviously a thing that makes the seven major Film Studio faceless.

Even if Disney is the profitee in this matter, Michael Eisner does n’t feel any excitement now.

Perhaps it ’s time to do something.

Michael Eisner somehow came up with such an idea.

After a few glances at the young man who was still full of ambition, Michael Eisner pursed his lips, patted Eric on the shoulder and encouraged a few words, then got up and left.

Eric sat on the sofa again for a while, because he just seemed to see some other looks in the eyes of Michael Eisner, but he did n’t want to understand the specifics, after telling Michael Eisner his ambitious plan , Eric was a little excited in himself, so he didn't analyze the meaning of Michael Eisner's fleeting eyes in detail.
