Chapter 28 Opponents!

At 6 p.m., there were crowds of people in front of the Hollywood Chinese Theater.

Many enthusiastic fans concentrated on the red carpet around the theater.

Most of them are yellow people!

"Linzai! I like you so much!"

Generally, California is a settlement for Chinese people, and most of the people who like to visit are Chinese!

Chen Linze smiled and waved his hand to signal.

Soon, Matthew and Scarlett both came. They walked through the enthusiastic movie fans and walked to the end of the red carpet, and were interviewed by reporters with Shen Lin.

"Why use Matthew? Because he has the temperament of a cowboy and an astronaut!"

"Scarlett? No one doesn't like Scarlett, I'm her movie fan!"

"This movie is not a simple science fiction film. We have conducted countless scientific experiments to prove that it is indeed feasible to travel through wormholes. In order to prevent the movie from appearing obscure, I even found several ordinary people who do not understand physics at all and asked them to watch it first. As long as they ask questions, I will solve it!"

The taboo of commercial films is obscure!

Disney reporters came over and said, "Chen Lin, why do you have to shoot this movie? What I mean..."

"I understand what you mean, why do you have to ask yourself so many problems?"

Chen Lin paused, "When I was a child, many of us wanted to be an astronaut. That was a very cool thing, and that was the biggest reason why I created this story! With the reason, then let's talk about the story structure. The earth was in despair and someone had to travel through wormholes, so I chose the astronaut! Every astronaut is destined to be extraordinary!"

"The earth is a good place to live. If one day we have to leave, how would you choose? Or, what kind of existence does the earth have in the entire universe? What kind of existence are humans and the universe?"

"I won't just shoot this one!"

After saying this, Chen Lin nodded to the reporter.

Matthew and Scarlett looked at each other, and the three left the interview area and turned toward the door of the Hollywood Chinese Theater.

Before entering the theater, Chen Lin paused to take a look at this famous building in the United States.

A sentence describes the style of Hollywood Chinese Theater: inappropriate.

It is said to be a landmark building that combines Chinese and Western styles. The handprints and footprints of nearly 200 filmmakers are gathered on the concrete floor in front of the theater.

Unlike the stars on the Avenue of Stars, leaving hand-to-hand marks here, it is more about business behavior.

Because there is no particularly clear and strict standard for the Hollywood Chinese theater, the leading actors will leave handprints, footprints, and even noseprints when some movies are screened in theaters.

Not only the main creators of the movie, but also the props in the movie can be left behind, such as the magic wands starring in the "Harry Potter" series...

Moreover, since the new century, the number of people leaving prints here has surged, and many of them are paid by film companies or foreign celebrities to achieve the purpose of publicity and hype!

It is said that it is difficult to leave a seal or leave a name.

Leaving a name on the Avenue of Stars means that the recognition of the American film industry represented by Hollywood and leaving a print in the Chinese theater. There are many reasons, either commercial or publicity, but the weight is not so heavy!

...

The first thing that caught my eye was two huge red pillars made of coral at the door.

Each of them is inlaid with a fabricated iron mask, and two red pillars support the copper roof above. Between the two red pillars is a nine-meter-high stone carving with Chinese dragons carved on it.

Until now, two stone-made big tengods, originally shipped from China, still guard the entrance of the theater.

Chen Lin walked through the theater gate and exchanged a few words to the person who came to greet him while looking at the internal structure.

The interior design here is dazzling and has a strong Chinese atmosphere.

(Forget it, I won’t write these anymore, I haven’t been there either)

"The latest box office statistics have come out," Cook Dick walked to Chen Lin. "Captain America 2" has poor box office performance today, and the box office decline has emerged. The three major commercial theaters will reduce the screening rate of this film from early tomorrow morning. If our box office is excellent in advance, we may get a higher screening rate than before!"

"A common problem with Marvel movies!"

Chen Lin said something casually.

Of course, I still didn't relax my guard: "Where is "Training Day" and "Olympic Eye"?"

These two movies are also films released today, and are two works that are not expensive but cannot be ignored.

"Training Day" is starring Kevin Costner. If you don't know Kevin Costner, then "Dancing with Wolves" and "Body Guard" should know!

Of course, the box office appeal of veteran movie stars is not as good as before, but as long as they encounter a suitable movie, they can still produce good chemical reactions!

"Not much surprise, these two movies shouldn't have any impact on us!" Cookdick hesitated: "Our opponent is probably "The Rio Desert Adventure""

Walt?

Are you playing?

Is "Rio Adventure" an animated film?

"The Rio Adventure has a very good reputation and is probably a good animated movie!"

“But our audience is different!”

Today is not only the North American screening of Interstellar, but also 32oo pre-screenings are held at the same time.

Due to its good reputation in the preview, both ordinary audiences, media and film critics have praised Interstellar for their praise. In terms of the show, Disney has adopted the exclusive screening strategy in some areas.

As the name suggests, exclusive screening refers to a contract signed between the merchant and the screening and the same film as the screening, to ensure that the screeners located in the hinterland of the city can conduct exclusive film screenings!

Simply put, some theaters are only allowed to screen "Interstellar" films, and are not allowed to screen other movies!

If they don't comply, then I'm embarrassed. The next big production can only be handed over to other theaters in that area!

For filmmakers, "exclusive screening" can reduce unnecessary waste of screening or dilute the audience.

This is a common method used by the six major Hollywood companies, and it is also a strategy for them to master the theater companies. Nowadays, almost all the big-selling films are run by six major companies or subsidiaries of six major companies. This strategy alone makes it difficult for small companies to have a way out.

"It has always been like this. Every decision we make for exclusive screening is based on our best commercial judgment and is also our consideration of maximizing the benefits of each movie."

This is the original words of Disney Department Director Dave Hollis!

Capitalist!

However, this is the rules of the game in Hollywood. Chen Lin is not qualified to refuse. Of course, he cannot refuse!

After the crew and the guests participating in the screening entered the theater, ordinary audiences with relatively back seats gradually entered the venue. Fans who could participate in the filming were either fans of Chen Lin or supporters of a main creator of the crew.
