The Best Entertainment Era

Chapter 476 Confidence and Doubt

This is Relativity Entertainment's highest-invested movie, and it is also Relativity Entertainment's first first-line major production. Pirates of the Caribbean is related to the future development of the entire group company.

A grand premiere kicked off at the Kodak Theatre.

Another Pirates of the Caribbean that Ronan has experienced, Disney put the premiere in Disneyland, California to realize the interaction between the film and the theme items of the amusement park,

At that time, Disney was not optimistic about this pirate film at all, and the promotional resources invested in the early stage were far inferior to the current embassy film industry. Even Disney's head Michael Eisner just regarded Pirates of the Caribbean as a Disneyland amusement project. promo.

But in the hands of Relativity Entertainment, Pirates of the Caribbean is the most important project, with an announced budget of up to 100 million U.S. dollars, and it can be added at any time.

The grand premiere kicked off from the west of the sun. Stars stepped onto the red carpet. Even Will Smith and Tom Cruise, who were not in Los Angeles, all rushed back to celebrate Roosevelt. Cheer Nanjiao.

The top management of Relativity Entertainment and all its subsidiaries are basically present, and they seem to want to collectively witness the success of the company's first top-level production project.

Call of the Pirate also awakened many people's memories of pirate movies, and a large number of fans gathered at the premiere.

Wherever there are stars, there is never a shortage of entertainment reporters. Hundreds of media reporters and photographers crowded the media area. Although it is not as grand as the Oscars, it is no worse than the premiere of any first-line major production.

In the media area, Arenas from Hollywood Reporter watched the Latin diva Shakira walk on the red carpet, and said to the colleagues next to her: The momentum is really big.

Los Angeles Times entertainment reporter McNeese said: For this premiere alone, Embassy Pictures has spent a million dollars. I have a friend who works for Embassy Pictures. It is said that as of last week, this film is promoting Marketing spend is approaching $80 million.

That's what went into the premieres of X-Men 2 and The Matrix 2, but both films are sequels to hit films.

He couldn't help admiring: Don't think that Relativity Entertainment is a second-tier company, it's really rich and powerful.

Arenas sneered, and said, No one dares to invest so much money in a pirate movie. Once the movie fails, will Relativity Entertainment go bankrupt?

You don't like it? Of course McNair could understand the sarcasm in these words.

Arenas didn't answer, but instead asked, Do you think a pirate movie can be successful?

McNair was silent, because the answer was self-evident, and few people were optimistic about this Pirates of the Caribbean.

Look! Ronan Anderson is here! McNeese reminded: The boss of Relativity Entertainment is here. It is said that he initiated this movie project!

Seeing that Ronan Anderson was about to enter the media area, Arenas turned on the recording pen and drilled forward, preparing to interview this producer who dared to invest huge sums of money in filming and making pirate movies.

Ronan walked briskly down the red carpet and saw posters of Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Keira Knightley held up in the hands of many fans.

Due to the signing of relevant contracts, as long as Shahai Entertainment launches a sequel, the return of these three people will not be a problem.

And they themselves want to star in the sequel movie.

For star actors, if they want to make a lot of money, sequel movies are actually the best and least risky choice.

This is a very realistic situation. Although Christian Bale and Keira Knightley are famous, they are definitely poor among Hollywood stars. Johnny Depp is in a better situation, but he is not particularly rich. kind of.

Pirates of the Caribbean was a huge hit. If Shahai Entertainment wanted to make a sequel, it was impossible to change the protagonist unless it was absolutely necessary.

Those who have acted in many sequel movies and want to jump out are basically people who have made a lot of money.

For the promotion of the film, Ronan was also preparing to go into battle in person and walked into the media interview area.

After answering a few routine questions, a reporter wearing a Hollywood Reporter badge asked aloud, Ronan, do you think 'Pirates of the Caribbean' will be successful?

Of course it will succeed! How could Ronan doubt his own company's film at this time, not to mention that he was very confident, even if he didn't have confidence, he still had to bite the bullet and say success. He asked back: Have you seen the trailer? Don't you think the film is whimsical, full of incredible imagination and creation? The intoxicating scenery of the Caribbean Sea, the endless style of Port St. Vincent, the heroic spirit of the Black Pearl, as wide as the sea the song...

Ronan seemed particularly confident: I think this film has all the factors for a successful commercial film, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't sell well.

Regardless of whether you will be slapped in the face later, you must not say discouraged words now.

The red carpet ceremony is still going on, and in the VIP room of the Kodak Theater, Robert Iger, like George Clint and Garcia Rodriguez, is welcoming the guests as hosts.

Robert Iger had just left where Tom Cruise and Will Smith were when he saw his former boss.

Michael Eisner came to Robert Iger and said with a smile, Hi, Bob, long time no see.

Robert Iger showed a charming smile: Mr. Eisner, welcome to the premiere.

How is your work at Relativity Entertainment? Michael Eisner asked with concern as if he were an old friend: Is it going well?

Robert Iger replied politely: Everything is fine.

Michael Eisner added: If you don't like it, you can come back, I welcome you at any time.

Robert Iger smiled like a Mickey Mouse: Thank you. Mr. Eisner, thank you very much for taking care of me all the time.

As for returning to Walt Disney, there is no need to think about it at all. Compared with entertainment, he is the chief operating officer who holds power. Can Disney provide a similar career? Could it be that he jumped back and lowered his position? Isn't that a joke.

Michael Eisner smiled and said, Bob, I have a question.

Please speak. Robert Iger has always maintained an extremely respectful attitude towards his old boss.

I don't know what Ronan Anderson thinks about it. Michael Eisner said lightly: Why did he shoot such a movie with the same name as the Disneyland amusement project? Does he have a problem with Disney?

Robert Iger said: How could Ronan have an opinion on Disney? The story of this movie is about the adventures of pirates in the Caribbean, and the title must match the theme.

Michael Eisner added: The film failed? Will it affect Disneyland?

Robert Iger has a relatively gentle personality. Even when he heard such words, his expression did not change. He said: The movies of Relativity Entertainment and Disney's amusement projects are independent commercial products. I believe no one will associate them in this regard.

He also knows that many people are not optimistic about Pirates of the Caribbean, but as a company executive, he must have confidence in his own film.

Besides, all procedures of Pirates of the Caribbean complied with laws and industry regulations, and did not infringe any legal rights of Disney.

Ronan entered the VIP room at this time, and specially greeted every guest who came over. As for Michael Eisner who came here to congratulate him, he just listened to something.

He is also not worried that Michael Eisner or Disney will target Pirates of the Caribbean and Relativity Entertainment. Disney has many internal conflicts. As long as it does not take the initiative to provoke Disney, Disney has no energy to take care of external affairs.

As for the success or failure of the film, it will not be known until after it is released.

Entering the theater, director Gore Verbinski sat next to Ronan.

I heard a lot of voices just now. Gore Verbinski was a little worried: They are not optimistic about our film, and they all say that Pirates of the Caribbean will lose.

Ronan was very calm: Gore, we all know how good this film you made is, don't we?

Gore Verbinski smiled embarrassedly: Being talked about a lot has affected my mentality.

Ronan vowed: This film will not only be successful, but we will continue to make sequels.

Gore Verbinski was distracted by the sequel, saying: I've read the sequel script, it's a very grand worldview and storyline.

Ronan thought for a while, and decided to give Gore Verbinski an air first: As long as The Curse of the Black Pearl is successful, I plan to use the method of set shooting for the next two sequels, and finish shooting all at once.

Gore Verbinski was silent for a while, then said, Okay, I have no problem.

But if you want to shoot a sequel, you must first succeed in the first one.

As a director, Gore Verbinski has always had confidence in his films, but people are always affected by the surrounding environment. Recently, there are too many voices watching Pirates of the Caribbean badly, even Gore Verbinski My self-confidence has also been shaken.

Hello, Mr. Anderson. Christian Bale walked over.

Ronan nodded first, then stood up and shook hands with him: Hi, Bell. He patted Christian Bell's arm lightly: The dress is good, and it highlights the figure.

Christian Bale couldn't help laughing, and said: Two action movies in a row, the training was a bit hard, and all the muscle contours came out.

Ronan said: Little blacksmith Will Turner and Batman Bruce Wayne are the pinnacles that ordinary people can reach, and your strength is the most suitable.

As the screening time approached, a large number of fans also poured into the theater.

Although pirate films have declined, thanks to the high-investment and large-scale full-coverage promotion, there are still a huge number of fans who have noticed the film Pirates of the Caribbean, and the premiere theaters are all full.

These fans will soon embark on a magical and happy pirate journey.
