[US Entertainment] Wild Child

Tuesday, November 11, London.

Summer and Suzanne, Leonardo and Ilmelin were all in London for the premiere.Previously, "Romeo and Juliet" received more than 1000 million US dollars at the box office in the UK theaters, and ranked third in foreign markets, second only to Germany and Australia. The film starred young and beautiful Hollywood stars, and it was a remake of Shakespeare It is a masterpiece, and the British audience has a high acceptance of it.

Summer wore a sky blue dress skirt and a blue gemstone necklace resembling the "Heart of the Ocean". James Cameron praised her when he saw it: "You are so beautiful wearing this necklace!"

Earlier, Leonardo asked him for the design of the necklace, and asked the British jeweler Asprey&Garrard, who designed and produced the movie "Heart of the Ocean", to customize the same necklace.At that time, Asprey&Garrard made two very similar necklaces, one with blue tanzanite and white zircon; the other with blue zircon and white zircon, which was much cheaper; Summer was shooting During the process, I wore the one with tanzanite.

The one ordered by Leonardo is also Tanzanite as the main stone, but it is difficult to find a rough stone of more than 60 carats in a short time. The rough stone of this Tanzanite is less than 50 carats, and it is less than 40 carats after cutting. It is more expensive than the original props. It is slightly smaller; the color is slightly darker, but it is not noticeable unless you put it together and compare it carefully; the matching stone is a white diamond, and a heart-shaped tanzanite is topped with a pear-shaped light blue aquamarine.

Media reporters also asked if it was the same necklace in the film, Summer said no, it was a birthday present from Leonardo, and all the reporters were amazed with "wow".

The value of gems does not necessarily indicate whether the feelings are deep, but such a heart shows his love for Summer.

The film has not been officially released, Leonardo has already won the hearts of a large number of British audiences.

The Los Angeles premiere is scheduled for Sunday, December 12.

The leading actors and actresses were still all present at the premiere red carpet, including both parents.The two parents had a cordial and friendly conversation on the red carpet.

FANS shouted "Summer", "Leonardo" or "Leo" loudly beside the red carpet, and some shouted "Romeo" and "Juliet". Both men and women were extremely excited.Both Summer and Leonardo waved to FANS with shy and innocent smiles on their faces.

American media reporters have found out that Summer’s necklace was made by the original prop manufacturer, and it was made according to the original design drawings. Because the matching stone is a diamond, the cost is higher than that of the prop necklace. The original props are now stored in Fox’s vault. .This is a replica of an important prop in the film, and it is also a birthday present from my boyfriend, which means a lot.

As soon as Summer said it was Leonardo's custom-made necklace, he showed a sweet and shy smile, completely looking like a shy girl in love. FANS and the media all crazily smashed the young and beautiful couple. Tang, someone even made a plan for the two of them. Summer got engaged at the age of 18 and got married after graduation at the age of 20. The mother-in-law fans were also worried.

Both parents are not in a hurry.George DiCaprio respected his son's wishes very much. No matter how much he liked Summer, he would not intervene in their affairs; Ilmelin followed his son in everything, and no matter what he did, she would nod and say yes.The mentality of the Brooks is a bit subtle. Neither Dennis nor Suzanne want Summer to think about marriage prematurely, so they pretended not to have heard of it.

Premiere in Sydney, Australia on December 12.

On December 12, Australia and some countries in the Pacific region began to officially screen "Titanic".On the same day, the nominees for the 18th Golden Globe Awards were announced.

"Titanic" received 8 nominations: Best Dramatic Film, Best Director, Best Actor in a Drama, Best Actress in a Drama, Best Supporting Actress, Best Screenplay, Best Score, Best Original Song .Summer was the youngest nominee in the film category at 17, and Leonardo was the second youngest nominee in the film category at 23.

The focus of the entire Hollywood is not on the young leading actors and actresses, but on the real-time box office figures of each day: In the 3 days of the first weekend, the huge shipwreck earned less than 3000 million US dollars in box office revenue.

The executives of Twentieth Century Fox almost collapsed collectively: this schedule is the best prime time, and the Christmas schedule only earns 3000 million in the first week, so the next week is expected to be only 2000 million at most. In this way, a After about 4 weeks of broadcasting time, they will cry and thank the audience for their love if they can earn 1 million US dollars.

Cameron was also close to collapse after getting the box office figures: this figure is too far from his psychological expectations!He was so depressed that he got drunk, and after such a loss, it would be difficult to find investors who were willing to invest a large amount of money in the future. Even if he found the money to produce, it would be difficult to find a big film company willing to distribute.

Summer returned to Los Angeles, and Columbia University began its Christmas break.

The publicity period started as early as the beginning of November, and Fox also worked hard for the publicity, putting in a lot of effort.After the film was officially released, it was the awards season again, and Summer was extremely busy every day. In addition to various scheduled interviews, he also had to attend various parties and banquets.The public relations teams of both sides, including Fox's public relations, bundled her and Leonardo together for publicity. They don't have to personally end things like manipulating the list of award nominations and canvassing votes. They just need to be responsible for managing their own star image. It's an exchange of interests. All kinds of unspoken rules and everything are done by professionals.

On Christmas Day, on December 12, the film was released for a week, and the total box office in North America was 25 million.Fox has been desperate, and basically gave up the possibility of profit, just to preserve capital.

On Christmas Eve, the Brooks invited Leonardo's parents to Christmas dinner.

George has remarried and should have stayed at home to spend Christmas Eve with his wife and stepson, but this time the invitation was a formal invitation from the parents of his son's girlfriend, and it was very grand and he had to accept the invitation; Ilmelin's relationship with his ex-husband was not It's terrible, especially in the past few years, every time Leonardo signed a contract with George, he would read the script and give pertinent advice. He was very concerned about his son's career development, so he didn't have any psychological barriers to being a guest with his ex-husband.

The Brooke family moved to the Bel Air high-end villa area near Beverly Hills in October. The house is luxurious and luxurious, with front and rear yards, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and glass greenhouses.The number of servants at home has also increased from one maid to one chef and two maids. The Christmas dinner is also done by the chef. Susanna seldom cooks by herself now.

Summer's bedroom was bigger and richly decorated, with velvet drapes and silk georgette screens.

Christmas dinner was eaten very quickly. George, Ilmelin, and Leonardo arrived at Brooke's new home at 7:8 in the evening. They started dinner at 10:[-], opened two bottles of red wine, and finished eating before [-]:[-].The two parents went to the living room to chat, and Summer took Leonardo upstairs to his room.

Summer wondered, even if the parents have known each other for a long time, this must be a formal invitation?

Then he asked, "Do you know what Dennis means when he invites George to Christmas dinner?"

"Isn't it just dinner? It just happens to be Christmas Eve." Leonardo was also ignorant.He still knows that when two people fall in love to a certain extent, the parents of both parties will meet, but he doesn't understand anything else.Although it is said that falling in love is a matter between two people, the two parties have known each other for a long time, and the parents also know each other. It is normal to have a meal.The Brooks had also invited George and Ilmelin to their home for dinner before, but this was the first time they had been invited at the same time.

"Did George tell you anything?"

"What is he going to say to me?" He continued to be confused.

"Tell me and you."

"Oh!" He suddenly said, "He did ask, but that's just asking. Actually, I don't quite understand what he wants to ask."

"What did he say?"

"He asked me—is it because you have been studying in New York for a few years, and I have been living with you in New York."

"Then?"

"That's for sure, you are so beautiful and cute, if I'm not by your side, maybe you will be pursued by other men and run away." She squeezed her chin, "Say, will you?"

"Then I can't guarantee that it will never happen."

He sighed, "Oh! I was afraid you would say that!"

He bowed his head and kissed her for a while, vaguely thinking of something.

The unsatisfactory box office did not affect the high popularity of the male and female leading actors. Summer and Leonardo are still the favorite Hollywood couple in North America.

During the Christmas holiday, in the second week of the film’s release, a strange thing happened. With the same theaters as last week and no increase, the second week’s box office hit the 8000 million mark, and the cumulative box office in the two weeks was 1 million.

The six major film companies, including Fox, were stunned. Other small and medium-sized production companies, independent production companies, and various Hollywood seniors who were waiting to see the joke between Fox and Cameron were all collectively stunned, shouting in their hearts about this weird situation. What exactly is going on!

The Christmas holiday is the second golden period for all film companies to fight. After the holiday, most audiences will flock to the cinema as a family. In addition to the box office increase, the cinema can also sell many additional products. In addition to movie peripherals, The sales of popcorn and beverages are the real profit of the theater.The number of theaters has not increased, and the number of screenings has not increased, indicating that the actual number of viewers has increased significantly, and there are still a considerable number of viewers who watch it twice, three times or even repeatedly. Many viewers claim to cry when Jack sinks into the bottom of the sea. , moved by the great love that he would rather sacrifice himself than let his lover live.

The number of Jack Dawson and Leonardo DiCaprio on the Internet has increased significantly, and the number of mentions on various websites, forums, and chat rooms has also increased exponentially; Rose and Summer Brooke's popularity on the Internet also remains high. Throughout the end of December, the entire month of January, and the entire month of February, "Titanic", Jack, Rose, Leonardo, Summer, Heart of the Ocean , James Cameron, are the most popular words on traditional media and the Internet.

The author has something to say: *Diamond (diamond) is the most expensive gemstone, with the highest hardness of 10, followed by ruby ​​(corundum, composition of alumina, hardness 9) sapphire (corundum, composition of alumina, hardness 9) emerald (green beryllium - Aluminosilicate, hardness 7.5-8), value varies according to origin and clarity, but only these 3 are "gem quality".Others are "semi-precious stones", and the price is relatively cheaper.

*The "Diamond of Hope" was originally called "Blue Tavernier". It was produced in India and sold to King Louis XIV of France by the French jeweler Tavernier (yes, that is the Louis XIV played by Li Zi). With a gross weight of 112 carats, the diamond was worn by Louis XVI's Queen Marie Antoninette (then the couple were beheaded). Later, the royal furniture warehouse was stolen and the diamond disappeared.Finally donated to the National Museum of Natural History (Smithsonian Museum).

*The Hope Diamond was graded as "Dark Gray Blue" in 1996.

*Louis XIV also has a 135.80-carat "big blue diamond", but it is not actually a diamond, but a Ceylon sapphire.

* Tanzanite is definitely much cheaper than diamonds or sapphires. Americans like tanzanite very much, probably because it is cheap and beautiful in color. After the big ship, the price of tanzanite has risen.The cost of the heart of the ocean props in the movie is unknown, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, mainly due to handwork. Tanzanite rough stones should not be too expensive, and zircon is not expensive as a matching stone.

*I have never figured out whether the carats of different gemstones are the same, so they are all calculated according to the carats of diamonds.The Hope Diamond is 45.52 carats, and the original prop Ocean Heart should be as big as the True Hope Diamond in appearance.
