Legend of Tomorrow

?

In addition to inviting his teammates, Guo Xu also invited some friends in Los Angeles to support him, which was a way of promoting publicity.

Without Robert Smith's participation, Guo Xu would not be able to make movies even if he had money to invest. The industry is in deep water. If he makes the wrong move, the movie box office may be seriously affected and suffer a sharp decline.

Robert has only been in the industry for a short time, but his family found experienced people to assist him, and a series of early promotions for the film were very successful. Several trailers and scandals between Guo Xu and Megan, Dunst, Avril Lavigne and others have given the movie enough attention.

The movie did not have any screenings or test screenings, but was directly released and had a grand premiere.

Film previews are nothing new in Hollywood. Back then, Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon started from being screened, and then became famous in one fell swoop. Preview screenings are an important part of audience research. Commercial films produced by the six major companies usually have close interactions with the audience from the script stage, constantly soliciting suggestions from the audience, and constantly debugging until the final release version is determined. It is related to the box office performance of the movie.

This requires money and time, and Guo Xu and others will definitely not be able to do it. Holding a test screening will not only not increase the box office, but may also completely mess it up, because there will be professional film critics watching the movie and writing reviews.

American film critics are a rather strange profession. Most of them make a living by trolling people and finding faults. How can critics say good things about a movie with a basketball star as the protagonist? A group of people were already ready to find fault with him and spray him severely.

As long as it is not a literary and artistic film, film critics will basically not say anything good. Of course there are commercial films with good reputations, but they are too few. There are only a few films a year, and they may even have received public relations fees.

Many people think that Hollywood is very awesome and must produce high-quality products. In fact, Hollywood also produces a large number of bad movies every year, and only a very small part of them are good. It's just that those parts are released all over the world and are well known by movie fans.

Film critics look down on low-budget comedies and commercial films. Even if reality and box office slap them in the face again and again, they have never thought of changing their tone. If you are not a young man, they will criticize you. If an actor does not look miserable, frowns, thinks about life, and sheds tears silently, then he has no acting skills.

There is no depth and the plot is vulgar. Movie reviewers keep saying these things over and over again in order to appear to be of high quality. If a commercial movie’s box office is too high and it’s hard to find fault, they still have a way.

There are no black people, no Asians, no women, no old people in your film. You are not politically correct enough. The crew’s buttocks are too crooked! They will try their best to distort the rhythm and strive to make the movie complete. They will be comfortable if others don't make money.

To put it bluntly, American film critics are composed of a group of sour-minded entertainment industry sluts and pretentious criminals who like to find the meaning of life.

As long as these bastards who stare at other people's butts all day long participate in comments, the reputation of commercial and comedy films will definitely plummet.

If Robert doesn't hold preview screenings, the film critics won't be able to preview the film, and there will be no opportunity to set the pace.

Guo Xu invited celebrity friends to support the movie, and the movie was very popular. Fans of these celebrities were also attracted to watch the movie. As long as the audience thought it was good, the reputation would rise immediately.

Amid a lot of attention, the premiere of The Innocence of a Dancer kicked off.

Reporter Audrey Jones from ABC Radio is also here. It is also interesting for the NBA program to occasionally talk about Guo Xu’s entertainment news.

Audrey was surprised when she arrived. It wasn't that there were few people, but that there were too many people. It was not what she imagined a small-budget movie with an investment of 10 million should be like. It was almost like a blockbuster premiere.

From the beginning, the stars walking on the red carpet became a different kind of scenery. They were much taller than the fans, and they were all giants. Not only the Suns players, but also Big Shark O'Neal came to join in the fun. The Lakers happened to have no games in the past two days.

After the Hollywood star arrived, many fans screamed.

Look, Keanu Reeves is here.

Keanu and Jason are really like brothers, except they are a little older.

Is that Frank from Traffickers?

Is this the premiere of a kung fu movie today? JetLi is here too...

Jet Li is a basketball fan. He met Guo Xu in 2001 and was invited to come with his wife to support him.

Guo Xu and Megan appeared together, and there were fans on the sidelines holding NBA posters of him. The most popular one was of him dunking over Piller. That dunk made him even more popular.

Walking on the red carpet, Guo Xu was not nervous at all. Having experienced two NBA championship parades, he was used to seeing all kinds of big scenes. Compared with the number of fans during the championship celebrations, the number of people at the premiere was much smaller.

Megan put her arm around him, and the two of them smiled and waved to the fans on both sides.

Their clothes are all fashionable and they have dedicated stylists. Guo Xu wore a black casual suit, handsome and tall, while Megan wore a strapless golden dress, with a charming front and back.

Both of them have good figures. Megan put on high heels and stood next to Guo Xu today, feeling a bit like a golden girl.

After walking the red carpet, they arrived at the media area. They stood together in front of countless photographers, posing in carefully practiced poses for the reporters to take photos. They would be on the news tomorrow.

Then they went to the media area to be interviewed by reporters.

The reporter asked: Jason, what do you think the box office performance of this movie will be?

I guess the box office in the first week will definitely exceed 20 million US dollars. I believe in my fans. Guo Xu did not avoid this question and said loudly and confidently.

Another reporter asked: If the movie box office exceeds 20 million, it is likely to become the box office champion this week. Do you think you will have the opportunity to participate in the Oscars in the future?

If Oscar invites me, I'd definitely be willing to go.

The reporter asked: Film critic Armond White said that he was not optimistic about the movie you starred in. He thought that as a non-professional actor, it would be difficult for you to have acceptable acting skills. What do you think?

Um... Guo Xu paused and asked the reporters at the scene: Who can tell me how a professional actor should answer this question at this time?

Everyone burst out laughing, and this was Guo Xu's answer.

New York film critic Armond White is well-known in the circle. He has always been known for his sharp words and unique opinions (that is, criticism), which has offended many filmmakers and actors.

In Guo Xu's previous life, this person did several famous things. For example, in 2010, he criticized the movie Black Swan for not being as good as an MV, which triggered a war of words between him and the director.

He also strongly denied 12 Years a Slave and believed that the film should not win the Best Director Award. There were reports that he loudly questioned director Steve McQueen in public at the banquet. As soon as this incident was disclosed in the media, it caused an uproar, and the outside world accused Almond of being so rude.

Guo Xu didn't recognize this lunatic now, so he smiled and said: Skip this question, I can't answer it. Is the movie good or not? Do I have acting skills? You will know after you go to the theater and see it. Let 'that so-and-so' see it for yourself. .

Guo Xu made his attitude clear. What special thoughts could he have on someone who couldn't even remember his name? He wasn't even interested in slapping that person in the face because he didn't have time to interact with every cat and dog who hated him. He was very busy.

After the main actors were interviewed, they stood in a row with other creative members of the crew and took photos together, and then the movie started.
