Best Actor

Vol 2 Chapter 164: continue

    "Good news?" Sean looked at Frederick with a smile. After asking this question, he didn't speak again. After a few minutes, the agent who had been there all the time became Some fidget.

    From what he looked like before, he obviously wanted to say it right away, but at the same time he hoped that Sean would ask first, so that he could show it, but Sean never spoke, and he was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do what is good.

    "Okay, let's talk about it, what is the good news." Sean laughed and didn't embarrass him for too long.

      Show!"

    It took several minutes for Sean to react, and he immediately showed a surprised expression: "Arrange the release of "Sniper Phone Booth" at the end of July? Summer vacation time? Is Fox crazy?!"

    "I thought I was crazy when I was first thought about by Richard Leyson's words, but the truth was the opposite. After Fox and the others discussed it... they agreed!" The agent was proud Said, although then added: "Of course, David Zucker and Joe Schumacher also helped lobby."

    Sean frowned and said nothing, obviously, he still doesn't quite believe that 20th Century Fox will make such a movie, without big investment and no big-name actors, at best it is a very creative one Movies are placed in the summer vacation gear to compete with those big productions. In fact, after the 9/11 incident and the delay last year to make way for "24 Hours", until today Frederick came, he hadn't heard the specific release news of "Sniper Phone Booth".

    There is news that Fox plans to arrange it in early October, and there is also news that they plan to arrange the film to participate in the Toronto Film Festival in September, but there is still no accurate information. Now that Frederick has come to say that Fox has been dealt with, "Sniper Phone Booth" will be released at the end of next month, or the summer vacation schedule. Sean's first reaction is naturally not to believe it.

      movie release.”

    "Really?" Sean wanted to retort, but was interrupted.

    "Don't think too much," the agent waved his hand, "I don't deny that there used to be actors who released three or four movies a year, but the point is continuity, understand? Continuous! "

    "I know, I know," Sean said impatiently, "for five months in a row, there are movies every month."

    "That's right, that's it!" Frederick clapped his hands approvingly, "So, what if you add another month?"

    Sean stopped talking, he began to understand how he persuaded Fox that Sean Tang released his sixth film for the sixth month in a row, and it was a one-man one-man show, while similar to " Like 24 Hours, a 90-minute movie tells a 90-minute story. In addition, the schedule does not seem to be very conflicting. Whether it is "Little Mouse 2" or "Men in Black 2", it is not the same type of movie as "Sniper Phone Booth", and it is all released in the middle of the month.

    "The new movies that will be released at the end of the month are only New Line's "Ace Power 3" and Disney's "Country Bear", which are still not the same type of movies, so there will be no threat to each other. "Frederick continued, "So, when films like "Mouse 2" have been released for two or three weeks, and "Ace of Power 3" is released together, even if it is not comparable to the big production, But the box office will certainly not be much worse.”

    "Is this your inference?" Sean asked, rubbing his chin.

    "That's right, but so is the analysis on the Fox side, and with the fact that you've created a buzz, the public will definitely want to know how your sixth film in a row -- and the only protagonist -- is. The agent said enthusiastically, "Furthermore, the North American box office of "The Fast and the Furious" has exceeded 100 million, and the results of "The Perfect Thief" and "The White Night" are also good. How could Fox not want to bet on it."

    Well, it's true, people are always full of curiosity, as long as they can hook it up, they will definitely pay into the theater obediently. Sean didn't plan to talk about five months and five movies in public. He talked too much and was easily attacked. Some guys liked and were good at finding loopholes. Anyway, in his five months It is a fact that a movie with a good reputation or a good box office is released every month. No matter how someone attacks it, this fact cannot be denied. In this case, it is better to let it automatically ferment among the public.

    However, Frederick's lobbying has also made him a little moved. So far, "Fast and Furious" has been released for three weeks, and the total North American box office has reached 110 million, and it is infinitely close to 120 million. It would be impossible to say that without the impetus of this blog at all.

    Similarly, the already exhausted "White Night Chase" and "Perfect Thief" also have some small improvements because of this, the former has accumulated 67 million box office, it seems that there are more than 7000 10,000 possibilities, and perhaps over 100 million globally. Although the number of theaters released for the latter has fallen below 100 at present, there are already more than 78 million. If it is extended for a period of time, if it exceeds 80 million, the global box office will exceed 100 million, and it is also possible to take the opportunity to preserve capital.

    In this case, coupled with the above analysis, 20th Century Fox may indeed bet on a gamble, after all, this is a work with a strong personal style, there are many things that can be promoted Where you make a fuss, the investment is not high. And once Fox is behind, then Sean can speak boldly about these to promote himself. At that time, even if someone wants to pick on the blame, someone will come forward and settle it without him.

    "Hey Galen, Sandy, come here." After thinking for a moment, Sean called up the two guys who had been thrashing in the pool.

    "I think it's worth trying, anyway, "YouRaiseMeUp" has been in the top 100 of "Billboard" for 33 weeks, breaking another record, and maybe will break another record in the future The record on the list, so as long as the conditions are right, there is no problem with showing yourself more." Sanders said so.

    Galen was even more direct: "Come on, Sean, you've already made up your mind, haven't you?"

    "Okay, let's do it." Sean laughed, then looked at Frederick, "Are you satisfied, Fred? Did Richard come to persuade me?"

    "We didn't think about that at all," the agent said with a sullen face, "We just talked about it by chance, but Richard said, if you get Fox, you will definitely promised."

    Sean laughed again.

    Now that the decision has been made, it is necessary to act quickly, before the promotion of "Fast and the Furious" is completely over. Although Universal did not arrange too many promotional activities at the beginning, after all, the investment of this film is only about 40 million, and a premiere is enough. However, after the movie sold out, they immediately changed their minds and arranged as many promotional activities as possible. Movies that can bring in profits are privileged.

    Although it has been released for three weeks now, and the publicity activities have not done much, there are still some tails to catch. For example, two days later, Sean was in a charity racing event. The reporter said that next month he has another movie starring him to be released.

    "Sean does always amaze people, after five months in a row, every month there is a movie with a starring or important supporting role, he continues to keep it, just In today's charity racing event, he has been silent about it, and finally admitted that at the end of next month, there will be another movie starring him, and I hope he will not keep the previous year." A few hours later network A related report appeared in , and then triggered a series of comments.

    "Support Sean to keep this going for a year, I love Fast and Furious and would love to see better work from him."

    "Idiot, even if he was shooting every month last year, he couldn't keep this momentum going for a year, and his movies are not all "Fast and Furious" commercials, you think Watching an art film starring him every month?"

    "Sean's art film is also good, I think his performance in "Dance of the Dead" is very good."

    "But will you get tired after reading too much of the same thing?"

    "What will be his next movie?"

    Anyway, five films in five months in a row — oh, six in six months in a row — really, right now, it’s an unheard of action, nothing more It's hard to believe anyone would be so sought after.

    Soon, ordinary media also reprinted such news, so it spread more quickly and surprised more people.

    Of course, some people questioned whether the reporter heard it wrong, or whether Sean said it wrong, just like the above message, even if he was shooting every month last year, and released six films for six consecutive months The movie is also a bit exaggerated, but soon Sean admitted it again on the radio when he was promoting "bewhatyouwannabe".

    "Yes, singing is just a hobby, just like to do it, want to do it, I'm still an actor to a greater extent, you know, I've been five months in a row, every month The movie is released, and this situation will continue until next month, because at the end of next month, I have another movie in the lead role to be released." In an interview with the host on the radio, when it comes to the old question, who is the singer? As an actor, Sean replied.

    As soon as this sentence comes out, it is basically certain that he will indeed have a movie released next month.

      The month is full, isn't it?"

    Of course, from the beginning to the end, he did not mention the name of the movie, what it was and when it was made, which is all a matter of 20th Century Fox.
