As soon as Martin arrived home, he received a call from Jessica.
Just as I pressed the answer button, there was a scream from the other side.
"Ah, Martin, I'm finally going to be the lead in a movie. I got an offer for a movie and I passed my audition."
"Congratulations, Jessica. What's the name of the movie?"
"Dark night in the southern part of Lower District"
"Uh, what a bad name?"
Martin complained secretly, and then quickly searched his memory.
There was no information about this movie at all in his memory. It was probably another blockbuster movie.
He wanted to persuade Jessica to give up, but he didn't know how to say it.
Use magic?
Don't be stupid, how could Martin waste his magic power on such a small thing!
Maybe let Jessica accept a reality beating before making suggestions, which would be easier to be adopted.
So.——
"Hey, congratulations, girl, you're going to be a big star!"
"Giggle, thank you for your blessing, I will try to catch up with you."
Jessica on the other end of the phone smiled happily.
Did you see it? This is emotional intelligence.
To be honest, Martin doesn't have to worry about the Rouch test at all. He has already done a good job of pretending to be human!
…………
The next day, Jeff called
"Martin, I'm here to pick you up now. Harvey has faxed the contract. I've seen it with a lawyer. There are no traps. You can sign it."
"OK, come here now."
The summer vacation is coming to an end soon, and he has to finish some chores until school starts - well, he feels that he may have to take a long vacation again.
Does he still need to attend school?
Martin has seriously considered this issue.
But considering When I realized that all my friends were in school, and the relationship still had to be maintained from time to time, I gave up the idea.
Especially Mark Zuckerberg, this guy might become my helper in the future.
Face, an Internet with media functions The community is definitely an excellent publicity ground!
In fact, Martin himself could copy this idea and do it himself.
But he really doesn’t have that much time and energy. At most, he can invest some money and become a zombie shareholder (only investment , not to point fingers).
Time has quietly arrived in December
《Titanic" is released.
At first, no one took this film that was destined to go down in history seriously, and film critics from all walks of life also criticized the film in various ways.
"A special effects movie with a love theme, ha!"
"The film makes no sense at all. James Cameron spent two hours telling a shallow and boring love story."
There are even more mean ones.
"James Cameron spent 200 million to create the"Sinking of the Ship" for 20th Century Fox Film Company. Yeah, I think this movie will also sink like that ship at the box office"
"Two hundred million romance movies, my God, is Twentieth Century Fox crazy? Or is James Cameron crazy? I hear James Cameron has his blades ready, so hopefully the next time we see the director's name, it's not on a tombstone."
For a time, all kinds of cynicism was overwhelming.
Even 20th Century Fox's emergency public relations could not silence these voices, because his opponents were also adding fuel to the fire.
After the first day, the North American box office of Titanic was only about 8.6 million. Although U.S. Dollar"topped" the box office champion of the day, it did not make the executives of 20th Century Fox and James Cameron happy at all.
Because according to this trend, even if the box office on Saturday and Sunday increased Some failed to meet expectations.
Judging from past experience, the three days of the first weekend of the film's release are the three strongest days for the film's box office. After that, it will continue to decline. The difference is just the size of the decline.
Many people think that""Titanic" is over, James Cameron is over, and more and more people are badmouthing this movie.
But at this time, an insider stood up and stood up for this movie.
Yes, It is our little Martin.
He told reporters in public:"I have seen this movie. It is an extraordinary masterpiece. Mr. James Cameron is a great director."
"I think the box office trend of"Titanic" cannot be viewed with common sense. Its reputation, its special effects scenes, and its poignant love will make this movie become a trend. I am sure that its box office will rise against the market trend.……"
Now that he knows the movie will be a hit, Martin would be a fool not to take the opportunity to court 20th Century Fox and James Cameron.
This is not over yet, he not only wants to show his kindness, but also wants to be a"prophetic emperor""
"I think that the box office of this movie in the first three days of the weekend may not exceed 30 million, but its box office decline after that will be surprisingly low. When its reputation reaches a threshold, it will inevitably explode into a surprising box office Growth against the trend"
"I predict that the final box office of this movie in North America will probably exceed 600 million, and the global box office will probably exceed 1.6 billion."
Martin's words caused an uproar.
Even James Cameron called 20th Century Fox in confusion,"Did you find this little genius?"
The executives of Twentieth Century Fox were also confused at this time,"No, we have never contacted him!"
Is he really optimistic about this movie?
James Cameron was a little moved, and for a moment he actually considered Martin as a confidant.
It's not to blame for him being fragile and sensitive, he was actually under too much pressure during this time.
It’s not just external pressure.
You know, after the movie’s first-day box office came out, he received a call from Alan Ryder Jr., the CEO of 20th Century Fox, who said sadly on the phone:
"James, if this movie fails, I will pull you fromJump off the Bangkok Bank Building. Cutting your wrists is such a gentle way to die, bah, what are you thinking!"
(PS: Little knowledge, the Federal Bank Building, also known as the Library Building and the First Interstate World Center, is located at 633 West 5th Street in downtown Los Angeles, California, USA. It is the tallest skyscraper west of Chicago in the entire North America , is also the tallest building in California.)
In this time of embarrassment, someone suddenly jumped out and said that I support you and think highly of you. Your movie will definitely be a hit at the box office. Can James Cameron not be moved!
And in While James Cameron was moved, Martin was enduring countless cynicism
"Martin, do your own thing. Box office predictions are not for you."
"Our little genius just succeeded in one movie and then disappeared? Who does he think he is? God?"
"Martin courted James Cameron in a unique way, but maybe he should have been replaced by someone like Steven Spielberg"
