Chapter 1168 1168 Grand Opening

In April, Los Angeles is filled with a warm spring, and the streets are full of flowers. Some people wear short-sleeved shorts, step on skateboards, and feel the carefree and lightness of the sea breeze blowing their hair; A scarf is draped inside for a rainy day; others are a T-shirt and a jumper, packing light to enjoy the short spring in California.

Burbank is really lively today, although it is said that because of the relationship between many studios and many film companies, people come and go throughout the year, but today is different. The main road outside the gate of the studio was full of people, and the crowds gathered on both sides almost filled the sidewalk, and it was mistaken for a Martin Luther King celebration.

If it's just a lot of people, it's no different for Burbank, there are special cases like this a few times a year, but the strange thing is that these people are not blocking a specific studio, obviously They didn't come here for a crew or a certain star. They had no plans to enter the studio shooting area at all. They were all surrounded by the main road outside. That scene made the staff who came by in the prop car tremble. I thought something went wrong in the studio.

After a rough look, there were at least 500 people at the scene, including nearly 200 reporters alone. Such a battle is indeed rare. Even "Terminator 2" became the first investment in film history. When there are over 100 million works, Burbank is only attacked by 300 people. So, what's going on today?

Nicholas McClen stood in the crowd boringly, and he didn't deliberately crowd it. The location was not the best, because he knew that with so many people gathered today, in fact, it was the same from any angle. Something special will be revealed. His goal of joining in the fun is not the backs of some cars on the main road. After the target person arrives at the scene, the interview into the filming site is the top priority.

Therefore, Nicholas was not in a hurry at all at this time.

James Larter, who was standing next to him, said loudly, "Hey, I saw Bond." Since both of them frequently interviewed Hugo, although they were rivals, one was from the Los Angeles Times and the other was from the Los Angeles Times. It was Us Weekly, but they became good friends. Peers are enemies, but on the other hand, only peers can understand their persistence and their hard work.

Nicholas followed James' line of sight and saw Anthony Bond Stewart who was cautiously looking around the situation. He was not surprised at all, still chewing gum, "It's strange that he doesn't show up, just see if he will. Will keep showing up." Nicholas looked around, "Did you see the Post reporter?"

There are many post newspapers in the United States, "Washington Post", "New York Post", "Globe and Mail", "Seattle Post", "Denver Post" and so on, but the reference to small talk between them has always been "New York Post".

James glanced at Nicholas sideways, "Did you say they might not come? I saw it just now. Four came. This is just the part I saw. Who knows if there are other places."

"An interview is not about winning by having more people." Nicholas was chewing gum carelessly, and while he was talking, a burst of force rushed over from the right side, and the person next to him didn't stand firm and hit Nicholas directly, almost falling. The friend next to the man tried to pull him, but after all, he couldn't react in time, and the thrust from the right side was too great, and he was too busy to take care of his companions.

Nicholas and James are both veterans of dealing with this kind of scene. Their standing posture is originally a horse stance, and generally they will not shift their center of gravity. So Nicholas took the opportunity and helped the man to avoid the embarrassment of falling and the danger of being stepped on by the crowd.

The man stood up and said hurriedly with lingering fears, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I mean, thank you, really thank you, I'm sorry about what happened just now..." The words were incoherent.

Nicholas raised his hand and waved slightly, indicating that it was all right, it was just a gesture of effort, and he didn't take it to heart at all.

James glanced at it, the two people next to him seemed to be too small, their height was directly overwhelmed by the surrounding crowd, they could not see anything, their faces were so green that they didn't even grow a beard, he guaranteed these two. He was definitely a child, probably only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Nicholas seemed to notice James' gaze and whispered, "It's probably a movie fan."

James nodded his chin in approval, looked away, and instead of paying attention to the two people, he changed the subject, "I remember that there was a paparazzi who had been following Hugo closely, why haven't you seen him recently? You saw him today. Yet?"

"You mean Doss Carter?" Doss, who is determined to become Ron Clara's heir, is also well-known in the paparazzi circle, especially after becoming a tail that Hugo can't get rid of in the past six months, he is even more famous Up, Nicholas naturally knew, "It seems that after Bond's challenge to Mr. Lancaster was unsuccessful last time, he disappeared. I heard last time that he seems to have other clues, and it is estimated that he is investigating secretly."

These reporters, who knew Hugo well, were used to calling Adam "Mr. Lancaster" to show respect.

Before Nicholas's words were finished, the scene began to riot, and screams were scattered on the side close to the main road. Nicholas and James immediately entered the state of preparation, and the two were almost indistinguishable. He raised the camera in his hand one after another, pointed it high at the main road, and then listened carefully to the sound of the engine, and when he noticed the approach of Ying, the shutter was immediately pressed.

After the car passed, Nicholas didn't turn his head, just said, "Cruise." James immediately understood that it should be the "Mission Impossible" crew entering Burbank now.

The scene immediately boiled, like boiling water, the crowd crowded in front and back, and the crowd who had been obediently on the sidewalk began to invade the road of vehicles. The whole team became chaotic almost in the blink of an eye. The vehicles were surrounded, which forced the car to slow down and move forward among the crowd in a snail-like manner. It was not like the engine was starting, but the crowd was pushing the vehicle forward.

In such a chaotic situation, Nicholas and James stopped paying attention to each other and focused on their work.

The reason why Burbank is so lively today is because it is the only day that the crew of "Mission Impossible" and "The Seven Deadly Sins" co-appeared in Burbank.

"Mission Impossible" started filming five days ago. This $80 million project shows Paramount's absolute confidence. They only have the first week of shooting in the studio, and then they will go to the UK and the Czech Republic to shoot the film. The main part of the film, and finally returned to Chicago to shoot the rest of the scene.

Rich and confident. This is the impression of "Mission Impossible" to everyone. Today is the last day of the crew in Burbank. Tomorrow, the actors will be the first to leave for London, leaving the staff to finish here.

Different from "Mission Impossible", "Seven Deadly Sins" costing only 30 million US dollars, as the "New York Post" said, this is a work of New Line Films asking for directions, and everything seems to be cautious.

"Seven Deadly Sins" did not arrange a grand opening ceremony - you must know that the opening ceremony of "Mission Impossible" invited more than 200 reporters from 90 media to arrive at the scene, which is the best for Paramount in recent years. Of course, the 90 media need Paramount to spend very little public relations expenses, and most of the media attended voluntarily. The issue of actor selection that has been raging in the past month has almost pushed "Mission Impossible" to the top.

The opening ceremony of the "Seven Deadly Sins" will be held today, but New Line Cinema has only invited 15 media to the scene, which is not too small but not too much, and it is quite satisfactory. According to the schedule of the opening ceremony announced by the New Line Film Company, the press conference will be held at ten o'clock, and then two scenes will be filmed in the afternoon, and 30 minutes of media interviews will be opened.

However, although "Seven Deadly Sins" is not as popular as "Mission Impossible", it is still Hugo's new work after all, and it also involves the showdown between Hugo and Brad, and there are still many uninvited media. Many people are curious about what the crew will be like after the movie starts.

Especially when many media found out that the crew of "Mission Impossible" and the crew of "Seven Deadly Sins" would appear in Burbank at the same time, everyone was in a frenzy. There was a group of reporters covering "Mission Impossible", another group of reporters covering "The Seven Deadly Sins", and another group of reporters who wanted to see Tom, Hugo, and Brad fight, so there was a rare scene at the scene. The scene, coupled with the fans who came here, made Burbank crowded.

Unintentionally, the opening ceremony of the "Seven Deadly Sins" was grandly launched.

In fact, in the opinion of New Line Cinema, "Seven Deadly Sins" needs to move forward in a low-key manner, because this work is completely different from "Mission Impossible" in terms of subject matter and style, and its publicity strategy is naturally different. But people's calculations are not as good as heaven's calculations. It involves the three top and most prosperous handsome guys in Hollywood today, and the trivial matter of sesame has become news, not to mention the big event where the three gather together.

New Line Films could have rescheduled, but after thinking about it, it finally gave up, and regarded it as a free pre-promotion for the movie.

More than 500 people surrounded Tom Cruise's car, making it impossible to move an inch. At this moment, I don't know who was shouting from behind, "Hugo, Hugo!" There were only one or two voices, but It quickly became one piece, so the whole main road presented a strange situation:

The crowd blocking the front of Tom's car did not disperse, but the crowd behind the car gradually dispersed, and then the car behind gradually approached, and the crowd gradually approached, resulting in the two cars being surrounded in the center. It looks like two isolated islands surrounded by sea water.

This is good, the news will definitely be a sensation tomorrow!
