How influential is "The Oprah Winfrey Show"?

Just look at the weekend box office of "Romeo and Juliet". In the second week of its release, the box office went up instead of falling, directly reaching 8978 million. This is unbelievable for a small-budget literary film.A lot of people who hadn't planned to go to the movies before started going in after watching 'The Oprah Show' on a Friday afternoon and bought a Romeo and Juliet ticket to watch Margaret and Leona Lots of rivalries.Some of the curious even tried to count how many cherry stems two people had tied in knots, which, I have to say, was pretty boring.

事实上奥普拉本人也为周五下午的那期节目的收视率而惊讶。经过80s的发展和90年初期的辉煌，《奥普拉脱口秀》的收视率在90s末的现在大致稳定在了一个2000万到3000万之间的数值,除非是有超级巨星或者是大人物，比如说总统、国务卿、外交部长一类的政治性人物，否则的话收视率很难冲到4000万以上。

But the ratings curve of this issue of 'The Oprah Show' is so beautiful that people start to wonder if the personnel in the statistics department made a mistake.

When Margaret Jane first appeared on the show, the ratings had already exceeded 3000 million, and by the time Leonardo DiCaprio and Baz Luhrmann appeared, it was close to 4000 million.And when the amazing kiss between Margaret Jane and Leonardo DiCaprio appeared, the ratings directly rushed to more than 5000 million!

This data is really beyond the reach of ordinary Hollywood stars. Generally speaking, it must be a superstar like Tom Cruise to reach this data.Oh, and speaking of Mr. Cruise, when he appeared in the second half, he stabilized the ratings at around 500 million.This data did not fluctuate again until the naughty little girl's song "wewill rock you" at the end, and it rushed back to 5000 million.

Oprah Winfrey held her forehead and wanted to laugh out loud. She originally thought that the ratings of this show would drop if the style of the show was too different from the previous ones.Looking at the ratings data that was not at all lower than the ratings of previous shows that invited big political figures as guests, Oprah found that she liked this little girl more and more.

Clever, crafty, and a lot of fun.Oprah Winfrey is undoubtedly a shrewd and perceptive woman who has worked her way up from the bottom to her own show.

Of course she could see the tricks among the three members of the "Romeo and Juliet" crew.How could the tacit understanding of a few people be so good without rehearsal?Kissing scene with a cherry stem?This can only deceive the audience in front of the TV, who in the circle would believe it?As an Oscar winner and an Oscar nominated actor, if they really need a cherry stem to distract attention, don't mess with Hollywood either.

Look at Leonardo DiCaprio, with his hand on Margaret Jane's shoulder when kissing, it looks like he is acting.Which man would put his hands on each other's shoulders while kissing?They will only put their hands on the back of each other's head or waist, is this because they are afraid that the kiss will cause real anger?

As a producer and host with professional ethics, she went to the cinema to watch the movie "Romeo and Juliet" before doing the show. After zooming in on the big screen, the tenderness and life and death between the two people The parting was really touching, even though they knew it was fake, they still couldn't help laughing and crying with their emotions.If those rival scenes were indeed staged, she could only praise the other party for his actor-level acting skills.It's too bad that it can't win an Oscar.

But what was the truth and what did it matter to her?Margaret Jane and Leonardo DiCaprio obviously don't want to be led by public opinion about their relationship, so she will follow along.This is not a social topic, but to expose and criticize those unhealthy phenomena.The people involved don't care about her, so naturally she doesn't have to be so lenient.Moreover, these two people are people with superstar potential, and it is definitely more beneficial to befriend each other than to be hostile to each other.She is no fool and knows what to do and what not to do.

She is already thinking about when to invite these two topical characters again. These two people are definitely the golden partner of 1+1>2, and the effect of boosting the ratings is simply not very good!

Oprah Winfrey is happy about the ratings, and Mr. Gianopolis in the [-]th Century Fox office is also happy about the box office revenue. What makes him even more happy is that the manager of his distribution department has just Tell him the good news that next Monday the number of theaters and schedules for the release of "Romeo and Juliet" will increase again. The popularity of this movie has caused theaters such as Regal, AMC, CinemarkUSA and Carmik to shrink or downshift a bit. "Romeo and Juliet" was replaced by a movie with no potential.

If the box office forecast company's data is correct, the film's box office in North America is likely to exceed 1.5 million, which is a miracle for a small-budget film with an investment of less than 1500 million. dark horse.

Thinking of this, he was extremely thankful that the heroine was Margaret Jane instead of Natalie Portman.How can there be so many topics and potential movie viewers for others.Well, the company doesn't seem to have any suitable films to use her as the heroine recently, which is really a pity.

"I'm applying to Stanford at the end of this semester."

Evelyn Acheson, with her colorfully dyed hair, threw a thunderbolt at the dinner table.The shock made Mr. and Mrs. Acheson dizzy.It's like Mars hitting the Earth, it's incredible.

Since their marriage problems, Evelyn's rebellious period has lasted for two years. From the original top student with excellent character and academics to a student with headache and heartache that every teacher has no choice but to do.Even after their relationship was repaired, Evelyn didn't change her state, and she still smoked or painted so that she couldn't recognize her original appearance, and went racing with a group of gangsters.This kept them in fear, for fear that they would hear the news from the police asking to claim their daughter's body that day.

But they can't control their daughter. Her grandmother gave all her inheritance to her granddaughter after her death. Evelyn is completely independent financially.She is still living at home now, and it would be even worse if they were worried that she would run away from home if they were pushed into a hurry.

Seeing the surprised expressions of the couple, Evelyn didn't laugh at or attack each other with words. She just said flatly, "A ten-year-old girl can survive the blow of her parents' death and be admitted to California State University." Why can’t I get out of this damn family crisis when I have my own business? In the end, I should live for myself instead of punishing myself for other people’s mistakes.”

After taking a bite of the sandwich, Evelyn frowned, the nanny must be out today.Seeing that her parents were still staring at her, she picked up a sandwich and left the dining table, "I don't need your help for the recommendation letter, I will ask the principal to write it for me, and you don't have to worry about the tuition, I will pay for it myself. If you are in a good mood, you can separate."

After finishing speaking, Evelyn picked up her coat and walked out of the house, regardless of the expressions of the couple.

Her life is her own after all, why waste it for some unnecessary things?She should stand on a high ground and look down on all sentient beings, instead of living a drunken life with a bunch of motorcycle racers all day long.After thinking about it, she took out the phone in her bag and called a good friend she hadn't seen for a long time, "Hi, Annie! Ya, I'm Evelyn. I want to go to the barber shop to get my hair washed and dyed. Can you accompany me?" Shall I go?"

Evelyn's figure gradually moved away from the oppressive house and walked forward.

Different from Evelyn's family is the Thompson family. This is a huge family. Not counting the brothers and sisters of Mr. Thompson and Mrs. Thompson, the husband and wife have six children. The family lives very lively every day. There will be no quiet time.

"Mom, just buy me an electric guitar. Look, doesn't your favorite Margaret Jane also likes to play with this?" The youngest son, Bill, coquettishly persuaded his mother Then she bought herself an electric guitar, and the pocket money she got from delivering newspapers every day was not enough to buy this kind of instrument.

"If you can also be admitted to Caltech, I will buy you not only the electric guitar, but also a full set of audio equipment."

Mrs. Thompson sternly rejected her youngest son's wayward request. If he continues to play like this, don't expect him to graduate smoothly, let alone be admitted to a good university.

"Pfft—" Bill's sister, Madeleine, laughed. Bill stared at her without saying a word, but his eyes were filled with anger. He was really unloving.

"Come on, Bill, Mom is right, if you get into Caltech, she'll buy you a full set of sound equipment, and I'll help you pay the rent for a year so that your 'topguy' band has a Shelter instead of huddling in the basement every day. Before that, you can repair that broken electric guitar. I think it can still be salvaged. Hahahaha..."

Don't blame her for being unnatural, these kids did everything for that so-called underground band, and several families were tortured enough by them.Not only that, but they also spent all the energy they should have put in school on making music, and the result would really not be too good if it went on like this.If Bill can really get into a good university, then other things are not unacceptable.

Bill Thompson gritted his teeth and cursed Margaret Jane. Thanks to him liking her so much before, he had read "Romeo and Juliet" five or six times, but he didn't expect to fall here.A good actor, what kind of Caltech do you mix?

After thinking about it, he still bargained unwillingly, "Change another one, I don't think I fit in with the aura of this school." He didn't want to go to a school full of nerds and mad scientists. What do they know? music?

"Well, as long as you are admitted to a state university, you will pass the test. But the higher the ranking of the university you are admitted to, the more rewards you will get. Think about it yourself."

Mrs. Thompson finally let go, giving poor little Bill a little room to breathe.Don't push too hard, it won't pay off.Mrs. Thompson thought with a smile in her heart.Margaret is such a good child. In the future, when Bill is disobedient, she will be compared with her. This child is not abusive.

This scene happened in countless families in the United States. Housewives like Margaret and think she is a naughty, cute, but smart and motivated girl. It would be great if their children could be like her.The children love and hate her, they like her pretty face but hate their parents to use her as an example to ask themselves.Really contradictory.
