Entertainment: Start with Succubus and play Hollywood

Harvey Weinstein puts down his newspaper and smiles

"Yes, very good, that Roger Ebert guy has finally used all his energy, and his connections in the film critic world and the academy are still very good."

Then he walked out of the office and came to his brother's office next door. Without knocking, he opened the door and walked in.

Bob Weinstein was sitting behind his desk, sliding the mouse and looking at the computer on the table, with a look on his face. serious

"Hey, Bob, Roger Ebert has finally shown his strength. You should contact him now and send the follow-up money. This old man is still worth winning over."

Before Harvey finished speaking, he saw Bob on the opposite side turning to look at him seriously and said,"Harvey, I think you should come and take a look at this. The comments online are completely different from those in the newspapers."

Harvey was stunned and moved closer.

"I used to trust film critics, but now I just trust myself. Oh, I also believe in Martin, he has never made a bad movie"

"How do these critics measure the success of a film? I can't understand their thinking at all. Anyway, I approve of"The Matrix""

"Are they looking at a purely entertainment movie the same way they look at an art film? It's so funny. I even think that those film critics did this on purpose to show that they are different?"

"Haha, these film critics always put on the arrogant attitude that I am the only one in the world who has the right vision and you all must listen to me. But now, I believe in my own vision more!"

In an era of limited information, film critics were the benchmark for measuring a movie. People needed to choose the movie they wanted to watch from the critics' evaluations. At that time, what they said was really authoritative!

But with the development of the media, With the rapid development of the Internet media, especially the development of online media, the times have changed.

In the face of the fierce movie-watching craze, they cannot affect the status of"The Matrix" in the hearts of its supporters.

Their opposition is destined to be like clowns. It makes people laugh.

When it comes to influence and authority, Martin, who has always been successful, can beat them ten blocks away.

In the minds of young people and women, they are more willing to trust or even follow Martin, and It's not these traditional film critics who can't keep up with the trend of the times.

Therefore, Roger Ebert's efforts can only be in vain, and even all he has done has made major Hollywood companies see clearly the"weakness" of these film critics.".

For example, Harvey Weinstein now

"hiss~！"

After browsing the comments on the computer, he took a deep breath, and then asked Bob quickly,"How was the viewing of"The Matrix" today?"

Bob Weinstein did not answer, but took back the mouse. After two clicks on the computer, a news webpage was opened.

At the top of the page is a photo of people queuing up.

People queuing up were either wearing black windbreakers or black sunglasses, and there were even a few women wearing tight black leather jackets. Harvey felt uncomfortable for them on this hot day.

Isn't it hot?! Even if you fart, you have to stay in it for several hours, right?

(PS: Let me tell you a joke about Kim Kardashian. This eldest sister likes to wear leather pants. One day, I don’t know if she had a bad stomach. She kept farting when she went shopping. Then when she got home, because It was difficult to take off the leather pants, so I asked my assistant to help. However, the assistant pulled the pants down, and a smell of fermented farts came out. The assistant vomited on the spot - I saw it in a tabloid before, I don't know if it is true or not, everyone took it as a joke Look, laugh!)

"Damn, it looks like we really need to re-evaluate the role of film critics."Harvey scratched his head, looking depressed.

Bob asked:"Then do we still need to pay Roger Ebert again?"

"Damn it, let this old guy go to hell!"

…………

Critics' pushback didn't help.

This spring release is destined to belong to"The Matrix". It swept all other movies in the same period and has no rivals.

With the arrival of Sunday, after two days of screenings plus the premiere and word-of-mouth fermentation, the single-show attendance rate of"The Matrix" has further increased.

Especially in the later stage of publicity, the Internet has become an important position for the promotion team of"The Matrix". Posts discussing this film can be seen everywhere on major websites and forums.

In this era before the proliferation of trolls, Martin pioneered the era of online publicity, and the effect was simply astonishing.

Meyers Pictures has established its own online public relations department and marketing team since"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring", and has also experienced the practice of"Lord of the Rings". Now it has almost occupied important positions on the Internet. film position.

They control the evaluation of"The Matrix" on major website forums, and even control the rating of"The Matrix" not to drop to 9.5 points on imdb.

This kind of control is very important in the early stage.

As the first week of the movie's release comes to an end, the first-week box office statistics are also out.

In just three days (not including the premiere), the box office of"The Matrix" exceeded 90 million US dollars, reaching 93.24 million US dollars, almost breaking 100 million US dollars.

What makes Martin even more happy is that all derivative products, including clothing and glasses, are almost out of stock.

《"The Matrix" undoubtedly became this week's box office champion.

In second place is the animated film"Kung Fu Panda", also written by Martin.

Yes,"Kung Fu Panda" ended up being released ahead of"Spider-Man," a decision made by Michael Eisner and Martin.

Of course, the spring movie is not as popular as the summer movie, but there are few strong competitors. The two movies, both labeled by Martin, are soaring all the way, plundering the pockets of their respective fan groups.

《The peripherals of"Kung Fu Panda" also sold well, but Martin couldn't get much of the money, and Disney took most of it.

…………

Chicago, in a villa.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Roger Ebert was throwing things at home.

After venting, he sat slumped on the chair and found that he was at the end of his rope.

What's even more frightening is that because of this action, he angered Martin, and the other party's terrifying personal connections have been reflected.

Disney, Warner Bros., and even DreamWorks came calling and canceled invitations to several premiere movies.

Although the other party had their own reasons, (Li Nuo Zhao) did not mention Martin.

But Roger Ebert knew very well that this was Martin's revenge.

This fifteen-year-old kid is definitely not a harmless guy. He can climb up to his current position in Hollywood step by step at a young age. Only if he is not shady can he be evil!

…………

Martin did make a few phone calls.

To him, this was a trivial matter, but it ruined the career of a self-righteous"authority".

But there was no way he wouldn't take revenge. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

In a country like the United States where interests come first, once someone infringes on your interests or rights, you must fight back immediately, otherwise people will think you are weak, and then wait Say"The pack of wolves has finally arrived", Yang!

A gentleman takes revenge within ten years. This works in China, but in the United States - haha, after ten years, the bones will be rotten!

Therefore, in this country, a gentleman must take revenge from morning till night!
