After the preview of "Jurassic Park", Sony Columbia Pictures also began to make a move. First, it broke out that the protagonist Sam Neill had an affair with the heroine Laura Dunn during the filming, and it was published in a tabloid. A few blurry photos to confirm this.

Then it came out that Adam forced the sale of copies to shoot according to his ideas, and the two had conflicts during the filming. Although it was obviously fake news, who made Adam popular recently because of the release of You, Xing and novels? How about it? I have to drag him into the water, otherwise, no one will watch it, and everyone who should be scolded will be scolded, and now there is no word.

However, Adam did not accept the call at all, and still published tidbits and interesting stories about the filming in the "California Times" step by step, trying to show the various efforts made by the film crew to make the film conform to the original work, and attract the attention of fans of the original work.

In addition, New Line has not been idle. As early as after the filming of the film was completed, it actively cooperated with various companies to promote and promote the film in various aspects. With the help of Warner, it has successively signed hundreds of product agreements with dozens of companies. These include toys, comics, comic strips for young children, various dinosaur models and even games, which can be described as full bloom.

Now that the movie is about to be released, these things also need to be paid close attention to ensure that they can enter peripheral stores after the movie is officially released, so as not to hinder subsequent sales.

It has to be said that Warner has played a major role in this regard. Without Warner standing behind, 90.00% of the peripherals cannot be negotiated. This is the role of a large film company.

With these peripherals as a guarantee, before the movie is released, it is basically guaranteed that it will not lose money, not to mention that Warner, who had watched the movie as early as two months ago, listed it as the company's main project this year.

Of course, if this wasn't the case, Warner wouldn't work so hard. After all, these promotional and marketing tasks cost a lot of money. If there is no profit expectation, Warner won't be so free to work hard for Adam and the new line.

However, even if Warner Bros. took a large part of the revenue from peripherals, it would still be very impressive in the hands of New Line and Adam.

Of course, in terms of publicity, Shinsen and Adam didn't just let it go, he just didn't take up Nobuyuki Idei's shoddy methods, and the publicity funds paid to film critics alone amounted to millions.

After all, film critics still basically control the reputation of movies in today’s era. Among them, the most expensive senior film review programs and newspaper columns cost as much as 10,000+ US dollars. I have to say that film critics in this era are really making money up.

……

"President, the negative publicity we made for "Jurassic Park", the other party didn't respond, should we continue?" Ishida lowered his body slightly and asked cautiously.

He sent many men before, spent several months, but did not get any reliable information, which is a shame.In fact, it cannot be said that there is no reliable information, but unless he can get the sample of the movie, otherwise, no amount of news can change the schedule that has been set.

"How is the market reaction?" Nobuyuki Idei asked with a gloomy expression.

"Since "Jurassic Park" is still mainly a fan market, the scandals of several protagonists have not had much impact on the main body of the audience." Ishida replied with a bow.

"Baga! Then stop, don't spend money on that dinosaur anymore, and transfer the funds to the positive promotion of our movie." Nobuyuki Idei slapped the table hard, and then said decisively .

It's just some tabloids, which have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in the past few days. Those tabloids who say they can't slander a word-of-mouth movie out of thin air, which news is usually reliable, are like an upright righteous man when facing him. What is exasperating is that the quotations given to them are far higher than the market quotations, and they are completely regarded as fat sheep that can be slaughtered at will. It is a pity that their Japanese companies have no reliable propaganda outlets in the United States and can only be slaughtered.

Nobuyuki Idei waved away Ishida, secretly calculating in his heart, although "Jurassic Park" does have a huge threat, but their "Sleepless in Seattle" is not bad, not long ago, in the test screening, A and A+ The ratings of the movie are as high as 90.00%, with about [-]% of B and B+ ratings, and [-]% of the ratings from female audiences in movie theaters are A+ ratings. These all show that the movie has a strong reputation among female audiences. .

Even film critics have given favorable comments to this romantic movie. Compared with most criticized romantic comedy movies, this "Seattle" has received a lot of high praise, which is extremely beneficial to the trend of the movie after its release.

The hateful thing is that the theaters only gave "Seattle" only [-] theaters, but gave "Jurassic" a total of [-] theaters without big-name stars, which is really hateful.

You must know that the relationship between the box office of a movie and the theater is basically proportional, and the box office of the first week often determines the final box office of a movie. Left or right is the final box office. If the word of mouth is good, it will be no problem to reach five. If the word of mouth is bad, it may double the first week.

However, no matter how dissatisfied Idei Nobuyuki is, it cannot decide the decision of the theater.In fact, it stands to reason that although "Jurassic Park" is an excellent popcorn movie with a big IP, which meets the market demand, but after all, a small company, whether there are big directors and superstars in charge, is weaker than "Seattle" in terms of lineup. Even if the number of theaters is not much higher than the other party, it should not be so much less.

However, although Colombia is now in the hands of the Japanese, coupled with the fact that Japanese assets are now being purchased in the United States, many newspapers and media have exclaimed that the United States will be fully owned by the Japanese consortium.Hollywood is no exception. In the past few years, it did not block Sony and let Columbia be included in its pocket. The movie circle has a very bad impression of Japan.

What's more, the distribution of "Jurassic Park" is mainly carried out by Warner, and the production company is also his younger brother New Line, which has just been included in the bag, so if he intervenes, several major theaters will naturally give Warner face. I'm sorry, it's Laotang's face to be able to give so many movie theaters.

Of course, if "Jurassic Park" does not live up to expectations, then after the first week, it will naturally increase the number of theaters for you, and it is not bullying you.

But no matter how you put it, the two parties had a turmoil, and in the end it had to rely on the quality of the movie. On the evening of June 1993, [-], the two movies were officially launched for audiences throughout North America.

……

"Tom! Look this way, hey, Meg, look this way!" the cameraman shouted loudly towards the red carpet.

On the red carpet, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan walked hand in hand with a smile on their faces, waving their hands hard to the fans and photographers on both sides, stopping occasionally, and fixed their bodies to give them a chance to take pictures, as Hollywood late bloomers The typical old soup Tom Hanks is six years older than another Tom in Hollywood, Tom Cruise, but his reputation is far inferior to him.

He doesn't have the incredible looks of Liang Tang, nor does he have a shocking box office. The only thing that can be praised is his excellent acting skills. It's just that he has been nominated for an Oscar six or seven years ago, and there has been no movement.

Now he is close to 40 years old, and he is still in the ranks of Hollywood's second-tier stars. If there is still no major development in the past few years, then his status in Hollywood will be like this.

Last year, he and another female star, Geena Davis, filmed the Pink League, which was a success in terms of word of mouth and box office, so he took this opportunity to win this movie directed by a famous romantic comedy director, hoping to do well in the box office. He has made a difference, and at the end of the year there will be a feature film "Philadelphia Story", which he uses to hit awards.

It can be said that these two films this year are extremely important to him, and they are the key to further progress in the future.

Both he and Meg Ryan have seen the finished film, and are very satisfied with the quality of the film, and have great expectations for the film's box office.It's just that he also heard that their movie was on the front line of a movie adapted from a super-best-selling novel. In order to know himself and the enemy, he went to watch that science fiction novel. He had to say that it was indeed a good movie. According to rumors in the industry, their movie is bound to be greatly attacked, so he has been worried these days.

"Hey! Tom, it's time to go, the people behind are coming." Meg Ryan reminded Tom Hanks softly when he saw that Tom Hanks was distracted.

Tom Hanks hurriedly curbed his divergent thoughts, and Meg Ryan and the two continued to move forward. After dealing with the host at the end of the red carpet and walking into the cinema, he relaxed a little.

"Tom, what's the matter? I think you seem to be a little distracted today?" Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks asked in a low voice after they sat down.

The two have cooperated several times, and they can be regarded as good friends. Seeing that he was out of mind along the way, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"It should have been screened over there. I don't know what the audience thinks?" Tom Hanks murmured.

"Over there? You mean "Jurassic Park"?" Meg finally realized that the other party was worried that the movie would be squeezed by "Jurassic Park".

Compared with Tom Hanks, Meg’s career in the entertainment industry has been much smoother. She played the role of Liangtang’s wife in the movie "Top Gun" starring Liangtang. This role is insignificant, but because of her sweet appearance, It has received the attention of Hollywood, so the development has been extremely smooth all the way.

After the release of "When Harry Met Sally" in 1989, as the heroine, he soared into the sky, and was directly called the American national sweet sister, and was promoted to a first-line female star. This movie exploded Naturally, it's also good, but for her, as long as she doesn't rush too badly, it won't affect her too much.

But Tom Hanks is different, so it is normal for him to be uneasy, Meg comforted in a low voice: "Don't worry, the two movies have different styles, even if there is an impact, the impact will not be too big, you haven't seen the movie Already? We need to be more confident."

"Well, that's what you said." Tom nodded, although he was still a little uneasy, but now it can only be determined by fate, so he turned his eyes to the screen, and the scene was already dark. The movie starts right away.

The author has something to say: Why is it so difficult to find a job?The entry physical examination said that there was abnormal liver function, and a re-examination was needed. The doctor asked me to go for a re-examination in a week to make it better, and then pay attention to diet and go to bed early this week, so as not to be tired.

PS: "Jurassic" movie, there are only one or two more, it's over, suddenly I don't want to write, there is no new idea, and I have no motivation to write.In the future, I will mainly focus on original works. If there are some in history, I will try my best to go through one or two chapters. What do you think?

In addition, there are not many manuscripts left. I have no time to update due to various trivial matters recently, and I have to go to bed early later. This month's update may still be guaranteed, and there is a high probability that there will be a window next month.
