Chapter 566: Become a Target

Everyone has different criteria for judging success. Song Ya learned about the first week's box office before boarding the plane to Tokyo. This result is a million less than Universal's forecasted box office. According to them, the movie did attract a lot of young people, but it was not enough. After the weekend, adults started to go to work. The speed of life and death has been diverted a lot.

The attendance rate will drop in the next week, but Universal has simultaneously increased the film schedule to 2,000, and the publicity also focuses on making a fuss about the word-of-mouth in the first week, and the support will be the strongest week in the entire screening process.

According to this trend, it should be impossible to lose money for the first time you invest in and star in a movie. Then the Golden Raspberry Award, which you only like to step down, will most likely not be your turn. To some extent, it should be considered a success, but Compared with Spielberg and others who easily make hundreds of millions of dollars from a single movie, how is this so...

"Amy, don't cry, this level of personal attack is nothing at all, didn't I tell you before that Mira filmed the story of returning to the blue coral reef?"

However, after the first weekend, the intensity of slander against Dancing Out of My Life suddenly increased a lot. It wasn’t caused by Phantom. Universal is already compressing their film schedule. It’s too late to make trouble. Most likely it’s the three films that will start drawing next week. New film, and the most competitive Baseball Angels. There are many 'suspects', and there is no good way now, because dancing out of my life is standing on a bright height, and I am the one who wants to accept the challenge and strive to maintain my position.

"We succeeded, so we became the target of others. If they don't step on us, they can't get a good box office. This is a commercial struggle with a scale of tens of millions of dollars in just a few weeks. Our enemies must do everything they can of."

In terms of overseas box office, Dancing Out of My Life unexpectedly did not hit the box office in the main English-language box office regions where it was released simultaneously in the UK and Australia. I don’t know why, maybe it’s because of the black male protagonist? This is also different from selling records. You don’t need to look at your face to listen to music anyway. Of course, it may have something to do with the fact that the Football World Cup was not over last week. So this time the crew is divided into two groups. Song Ya takes people to the book that will be released a week later, while Amy and old Larry fly to Rome to use her birth in Italy and old Larry's literary achievements to focus on France, Germany and Italy. Wait for continental European box office.

"If you don't listen, ignore, or respond, they will lose interest after the movie is released. When people mention you, they will only remember the grades."

The media focused their attacks on him and Amy, the two male and female protagonists. The attacks on him were nothing more than gangsters, unspoken rules, stealing food, etc. These things have long been said to be bad by the media, and there is no new material. Well, he is a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, so he has no feeling at all. But Amy has no experience in dealing with these. Her main black spots are prying her girlfriends and boyfriends, sleeping with singers to get a position, and her acting and dancing skills are not good enough but she still got the heroine of a hit movie.

"I've sent Hayden to help bail your father out, just hit people, it's okay, okay? After this period, people will chase after your success, and no one will remember what the media once said."

Amy is now on the verge of a nervous breakdown from the flying attacks, and the high-contrast ugly photo of her unkempt and unkempt on the Highland Park balcony has been turned up for ridicule. After she became famous, her family also began to be harassed. Although her parents were much more reliable than Mira’s pair, they couldn’t adapt to the change of their daughter’s status for a while. Her father punched her in a fit of anger during a provocative interview. The reporter who asked the question was charged and imprisoned by the other party who succeeded in touching porcelain.

"You are not the same now. You used to be just a small commercial star in the region, but now you are a movie heroine with a box office of 14 million in a single week. You have to adapt, and so do your family members. Communicate with them well. , Linda will teach you how to do it."

Amy has six brothers and sisters, and the two families formed after her mother's divorce also have new members. If this kind of extended family is single-minded, it would be terrible. Fortunately, there is no such sign yet, and she is an adult and self-reliant famous.

"This is the worry of happiness, do you understand? How many girls in Hollywood want your exposure, huh? I have told you countless times before, and I think Hayden has taught you this too. Listen to him As for Linda, cooperate with the crew to promote well, squeeze out the most beautiful smile in front of the camera, and think about it a few times in your mind before you say it, I believe you can pass this test."

The agents of both of them are Hayden, and they also accompanied them to Rome this time.

"call……"

After finally persuading Amy, he called Mariah Carey again, boarded the first-class cabin, and after dealing with the crew members who wanted to sign, he turned off the phone and handed it to Taraji who came back to replace Linda.

"My shots are cut out a lot," Taraji took the opportunity to complain.

"You are content, and it has nothing to do with me."

It is true that her and Terrence Howard's scenes were cut a lot by Universal. Song Ya will not take the blame, and Terrence Howard seems to be a little upset, but neither of them is stupid. I am very happy to be able to give this opportunity. It's easy, the number of scenes should be a surprise, there is no reason to hate myself instead.

"I know, it's just that people always want more... Sigh!"

Taraji covered him with a thin blanket, "Oh, by the way, Sony Columbia Records just called and let me tell you that the sales of soundtracks can't keep up with word-of-mouth, and they probably won't get popular until after the movie is over, so they want to wait two months. We will hit the charts next week. The original soundtracks of The Lion King and Forrest Gump are also very popular, but one of them has an older style of music, and the other is simply a collection of classic old songs."

"Um."

Song Ya nodded and put on the blindfold. One's energy is limited, one has to finish the announcement of the film first and then consider the original soundtrack, although he should get more money for the original soundtrack...

He also took the time to listen to the soundtracks of those two movies. Forrest Gump’s old songs are fine. The soundtrack of The Lion King is a master. The soundtrack Hans Zimmer is very good, and the theme sung by British national treasure singer Elton The song CanYouFeelTheLoveTonight is also top-notch, and has reached the eighth place on the B list.

There is also bad news in the music industry. Both Kelly Lau and Aaliyah of JIVA Records have sold very well this year, and they have become popular very quickly. It is mainly due to Kelly Lau. In fact, Aaliyah is basically singing songs composed by him. That guy sings and Their creative ability is very strong, and the line is also the popular rhythm and blues. Therefore, the strength of JIVA Records has skyrocketed, and the old Quincy Jones seems to be able to play for a long time.

But there is also good news. WarrenG's record ranks No. 2 on the B chart, and DefJam is expected to turn a profit with his single and debut album.

The top list of the B list is ISwear, from All-4-One, a male rhythm and blues group similar to BoyzIIman under Atlantic Records, and it has been in that position for a long time.
