Legendary Hollywood Producer

On June 5, a sunny day, it is advisable to go out, watch movies, and avoid being at home and getting moldy.

James drove his bicycle to a theater on Fifth Avenue in New York early in the morning. He usually doesn't like to watch movies, but yesterday's pictures kept appearing in his mind, attracting James to learn about those who are being chased by zombies. What will happen to the people.

Lined up and bought a ticket for "Infected", and from time to time other people’s ticket purchases were heard nearby.

"Three "Shrek"."

"A piece of "Troy."

But more people still choose to watch "Infected", after all, this movie was only released today, and the other two have been in theaters for a while.

James walked into the screening room of "The Infected" with a lot of people, so he had to sit down in the back right position. Other good positions had been chosen long ago. People came in one after another, and the spacious projection hall was soon filled with people, and the sound became noisy.

"Niken, this is the sequel to "Small Town Zombie", it must be very exciting." The speaker was a young white man sitting in front of James.

And the young man he called Niken also spoke, "I see, Lyle, you have repeated it many times."

"Hmph, Nikon, you didn't watch the last movie. If you miss it again this time, you will definitely regret it."

"Hope."

James listened to them, thinking in his heart. It turns out that this movie has a previous work, and it sounds like a good-looking one. No, when I finished watching this movie, I went back to look for the video tape of the previous work, James thought to himself. .

The theater, which was almost full of people, was a bit noisy. After the lights went out, it slowly returned to silence. James was not thinking about it, and focused on watching the movie.

After the opening of the title Manhai Entertainment's logo and Paramount Pictures' classic star-surrounding snow-capped logo, the feature film of the movie "Infected" also began...

"Ah..." The audience's exclamation sounded from time to time in the theater, but James didn't care, he stared at the big screen intently. The protagonist was fleeing with his daughter. They just met a large group of zombies at the exit of the station. If they didn't run fast, they would end up being bitten by the zombies. The audience in the theater will exclaim from this. Those who run slowly are surrounded by many zombies and bitten by them. What's even worse is that the director gave the close-ups of the bitten shots, and many people were caught. scared.

When the protagonist also turned into a zombie, the pregnant woman stepped forward and pulled him off the train together, sighing in the movie hall. James also thought it was cruel. When he was most hopeful of fleeing to a safe zone, the protagonist was bitten by the villain in the movie and lost the kind-hearted pregnant woman. In the end, only the little girl escaped to the police protection. The movie ended. The names of the main creators appeared on the big screen, and James followed the crowd and left the theater. "fantastic."

"The protagonist is so miserable, but in the end he became a zombie, and the pregnant woman."

"Yeah, the director is too bad, can't you let them all survive?"

......

From time to time, everyone’s discussion came from next to him. James listened to the words, but he thought in his heart that he was going to buy a DVD of "Zombies in a Small Town" and went home and watched the prequel. The movie was very good, which made James want to learn more. .

This kind of situation has been staged all over the United States, and "Infected" is indeed a film that can attract audiences very well.

In Hollywood, a screening of "The Infected" is over. The audience is discussing the movie in twos and threes. The film critic Bob from the "Los Angeles Times" stood up and followed the audience away. The movie I just watched may be the most exciting type of zombie. It's filmed, the plot is perfect, it's not the kind of brainless zombies, the characters are clearly portrayed, it's unforgettable, the special effects are also top-notch, don't appear abrupt, in general, very exciting. Bob thought about how to publish praise for "Infected" in a column tomorrow. Anyway, he must recommend it to readers to let them know that this is a good movie.

Roman is sitting in the office of Manhai Entertainment, and the movie is released today. Paramount opened paintings with as many as 3,000 premiere theaters. In all, Paramount also used its greatest resources to release the movie. Success or failure depends on the box office trend of the movie.

The next day, "The Infected" was still in theaters. There were already many film critics who made comments in the newspaper. Some of these people were spontaneous, and some were taken care of by Paramount Pictures. They are all complimenting the movie in different ways.

"This newly released zombie movie has a very good idea, the characters are also very vivid, and the plot is smooth. It is my most recommended movie this summer."-"Washington Post".

"Director Joe Det Durbar portrayed the character's image with a very delicate technique. The protagonist's selfishness, the kindness of his daughter, the persistence and greatness of pregnant women, under the attack of zombies, the humanity of everyone is fully exposed. I highly recommend everyone to go. Look." —The New York Times.

"In the past disaster movies, the protagonist is always the most responsible, and everyone will work together to survive the disaster, but "The Infected" was not filmed like this. The people in it have their own minds and always want to live. Regardless of what others are doing, everyone seems to be only selfish in the face of disasters, but there is a beautiful side to human nature. When pregnant women came forward to protect the little girl, I was very touched. If you want to see A good movie, I must recommend "Infected"."-"Los Angeles Times".

Roman looked at the newspaper and was very satisfied with the publicity of Paramount Pictures. It was only the next day that so many film critics recommended "The Infected". It seems that Paramount has done a lot, although there are bad reviews, such as Some people pointed out why there are two Asians in Hollywood movies, which makes the film a little flawed. Seeing such a statement, Roman did not pay attention to what the racist people have to say.

Later, Paramount Pictures sent someone to inform the first day of the box office of the movie "The Infected", which was $15.5 million. It recovered most of the production costs in one day, which was worthy of everyone's contribution.

Next, with the fermentation of word-of-mouth, the box office went up all the way, the next day was 19 million US dollars, the third day was 22.3 million US dollars, in three days, the movie "Infected" broke 55 million US dollars, and it reached the top of the box office as soon as it was released. On the daily list, "Shrek" ranked second, "Troy" ranked third, and the still struggling "Van Helsing" ranked fourth.

On weekdays, although the box office had dropped by 30%, the trend was still healthy. On June 13, the box office of the movie "Infected" officially exceeded 100 million in North America.
