Ace Hollywood

What is their purpose? Andy was a little puzzled, This did cause us a little trouble, but it will not have any fundamental impact. The public relations capabilities of DreamWorks and Universal cannot be weaker than Tracy or Philip. , Once we react, all their actions will be useless.

Fox leads this matter and lays a solid foundation for the box office of X-Men in the third week. It’s impossible to fight with Universal because of a supporting role.” Melissa understood at a certain level, this is Fox’s idea, staggered by two weeks, it’s true that they won’t meet each other again, but there will definitely be basic competition.

It's not out of the question that Johnny Depp and Matt Damon, and of course their managers, would take this ride to make Daniel sick.

I think it's not just that. Daniel obviously thought more, You can think about it, before the release of Gladiator, I accumulated some energy. If Commodius is a success, then CAA can Take advantage of this wind and push me to A-list star status, I mean, all it takes is an Oscar nomination and a Bourne deal, and I can basically achieve that status, at least quasi-A-list. But if Kang If Murdius is controversial, then CAA will definitely hesitate. Kevin's attitude clearly shows this point. As long as I can suppress my upward trend, I may enter the ranks of A-level, and I have to wait and see. This is In my critical moment, any action will have the effect of surprising them.

The faces of Melissa and Andy also became serious.

Then what do we need to do?

I don't need to do anything more this time. Daniel smiled, but his tone was full of confidence. The role of Commodius did condense his talent, training and talent. As long as DreamWorks and Universal did not give up on him, he would I believe that the brilliance of this character will not be overshadowed by some small tricks. This time, his enemies will be defeated by his performance.

...

People from Universal are starting to work hard. Philip answered two calls, turned his head and said to Matt Damon, with a somewhat indifferent expression, It seems that they are quite concerned about Daniel.

Matt Damon's expression was a bit dignified. In fact, from the beginning when Jacques Phoenix lost to Daniel, and even later when he lost in The Bourne, Damon still didn't have much different emotions for Daniel. It’s not bad, but for a person like Daniel with outstanding talent and extraordinary opportunities, someone will give him a chance, not just Gladiator and Bourne Shadow but also others. The important thing is that not every opportunity comes It works. In fact, the chances of turning into success are very low. After all, there are only so many A-list stars in Hollywood, and hundreds of thousands of movies are made every year, so many roles are always needed.

He didn't think Daniel could realize the opportunity so easily.

You know how down and out he and Ben were before Good Will Hunting won the Oscar statuette.

However, after the premiere of Gladiator ended, they got feedback immediately-almost one-sided praise.

A-level big production, Oscar-winning movies, brilliant characters and outstanding acting skills-this is almost the standard configuration for skyrocketing.

This is the important reason why Matt Damon and Philip are determined to encourage Fox to use Daniel as a breakthrough point. He cannot be allowed to use this to soar into the ranks of A-level stars. Matt himself absolutely understands the energy of an A-level star. The status of Hollywood basically comes from the twin stars of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck,

Ben's development is not good, and whether he can still be called an A-level star is a matter of two opinions. The power of direct contact with production executives at major studios.

Universal attaches too much importance to this movie, otherwise we can do more, Philip said regretfully, implying that he would stop here, However, Tracy's side doesn't know what to do. gone.

Fox was driven by two forces, which Philip and the others knew, and it was easy to know who the other party was.

It is not unheard of for Philip to hear the rumor that Daniel rejected Tracey and then joined CAA.

This is somewhat unbelievable, but it seems that Johnny Depp is indeed not an ordinary character. He seems to have understood that Daniel will soon become his competitor.

The very interesting game at USC gave Depp a lot of excitement. Matt smiled.

...

The efforts of the publicists of Universal Pictures stopped the malicious evaluation of Daniel, and the positive evaluation of Daniel's performance by several front-line publications also reversed the previous situation.

As the pre-screening in Los Angeles wrapped up, more comments and information came out.

In Los Angeles, Jenny of LAH pointed to The New Yorker and gruffly said to her brother Riller, This is a trustworthy evaluation. Those second-rate newspapers are paid by others to blackmail Daniel.

This one looks more like spending money.

Blunt's compliment did make one quite blush.

This film critic has a reputation, so he must tell the truth, otherwise, won't everyone ruin his own brand when he sees him? Jenny has worked as an administrator at LAH for several years and has a little understanding of Hollywood. , it is impossible for him to be so blatant, this is simply not leaving a way for himself. The only explanation is that he really thinks so.

Okay, when the time comes, we'll go to see it together, and we'll see the result, how about it? I'll go to see it on the 4th? I can take a day off. Reiler is a book agent—if you use an advanced expression, it is a book dealer IP operation. For example, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Tolkien's book, making it into a movie is a brokerage act. Of course Riller's grades are not that high, he just does some publication-related, adaptation recommendations, book fairs, and translations. Generally speaking, he has a little connection with the TV and movie circles, but he is not considered an industry insider.

It's a deal.

Many fans of Daniel's movie are gearing up, the time is getting closer, the 4th is Friday, and how much they can win in the first three days basically determines the performance of this movie—unless it is Forrest Gump. An unexpected work.

It has to be said that the behavior of movie fans always has something in common.

On Daniel's personal website and chat page, Sting, the senior movie fan who proposed to watch the movie together last time, recently joined the ranks of administrators and began to implement the plan of the website's head, Cathy.

They posted a link to the chat version of the post under Daniel's blog, which stipulated the format of the reply, and there were also some requirements, such as being over 17 years old, or accompanied by a guardian. Cathy found several responsible persons in different cities, of course, because This is the first time to do such a crazy thing, the number of people is not large, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Washington, Boston and other big cities. According to the address information left by the respondent, the person in charge contacted through the SMS tool in the board to finalize the itinerary.

Sting was in charge of the Los Angeles area—an important position, not unlike Kathy herself, who was in charge of New York.

Daniel's popularity in Los Angeles is indeed extraordinary, and most of the replies belong to Los Angeles.

From the second day of the premiere to the night of the 2nd, in about four or five days, there were actually more than 60 people who were able to watch the movie together.

The total number of people in the United States also exceeded 240 people.

This caught the attention of Fred and Evan.

The former is obliged to pay attention to the network dynamics related to Daniel. The latter is the person in charge of Blogger. Daniel is one of the important symbols of his work. He is now negotiating the life and death of the blog.

Google intends to acquire them, but the price is too different from his expectations. Maybe they just took a fancy to his Achilles' heel—the more time goes by, the more Evan can't hold on.

Now let him see this form of joint ticket purchase, which is very exciting for Evan.

Could this be an opportunity?

Evan decided to have a talk with that internet whiz over at Daniel's side, in fact Evan and Fred have had more connections since Daniel became the banner of blogger, Daniel needs some privileges like deleting ** on the blog etc Wait, of course Evan can satisfy him, and the blogger must also ensure that Daniel is always updated.

From Matt Damon to Evan Williams, Daniel is never short of things, and of course he's more than capable of being a dominant star these days.

Gladiator was officially launched in different emotions of many people. The 2,938 screens showed that Universal has indeed contributed a lot, and the nearly 3,000 screens are indeed the treatment only available to this type of blockbuster.

Compared with the producers, directors, actors, etc., the main creators pay more attention to the box office on the first day, the audience obviously pays more attention to the gossip.

Russell Crowe and DiCaprio—Hollywood replacements? boys and men?

This kind of discussion is indeed inexplicably exciting. Those who love Claw flaunt their mature views on men, while those who love Leonardo only need to mention Jack Dawson.

This is a matter of mutual benefit. In fact, the pressure on Leonardo is not small. After Titanic, his worth has risen to the 20 million club, but the achievements of the Titanic are almost irreproducible Yes, from the perspective of a latecomer, maybe only Daniel understands that he can end his own record until Kashen's Avatar comes out.

Russell Crowe's Maximus is also getting a lot of attention, and The Path of Heroes is full of controversy, all of which are fueling the box office.

The news released by Universal also made Daniel continue to receive attention.

A commercial blockbuster Bourne Shadow.

Take a look at Universal's manuscript. Although it is announcing another cooperation, more than half of the content is about how wonderful Daniel's performance in Gladiator is. If you don't read it, you will regret it for life.

This is actually very convincing. If it weren't for Daniel's performance, how could Universal have invested 60 million yuan to invite him to be the leading actor.

On this day in early August, the entire film and entertainment circle was contracted by Gladiator, and news about it was everywhere, including box office predictions, award predictions, directors, actors, good and bad, controversy and affirmation, almost everywhere.

This kind of pervasive marketing was something Daniel had never seen during the period of Campus Blues.

After the early morning of the next day, the box office statistics company will have the results. Of course Daniel will be nervous. According to the order, he will get the news after many people, but it is agreed in advance that Universal will call him.

I don't know why we are nervous. Isn't Universal's forecast around 15 million? The pressure doesn't seem to be too great.

The matter is imminent—hey, the phone is coming.
