MTL - After Buying Marvel, I Became the King of Hollywood-Chapter 20

Talking about the good reviews in the newspaper, Angelina Jolie, the heroine, couldn't help but smile.

The film's high praise means that the box office will not be too bad, and as the heroine, she can be regarded as having her own masterpiece.

Don't look at this as it doesn't seem difficult.

In fact, the vast majority of Hollywood actors will never cross this threshold in their lifetime.

There are only dozens or hundreds of movies released every year, and very few of these movies make money.

Having a representative work means that an actor has truly taken root in Hollywood.

With this role, Angelina can even eat a bowl of rice as an actor for a lifetime.

Looking at Julie's expression, Kevin deliberately said:

"You only see good reviews. Did you know that Warner Bros., New Line Cinema, and I spent a million dollars in PR for them?"

"These are just part of the marketing of the movie."

Julie was stunned. From Kevin's mouth, she really realized what Hollywood is, and everything is just a money transaction.

"Of course, this can only be useful if the film has a certain quality. Once the film is too bad, for their own reputation, they can only do so without speaking up."

Julie immediately rolled his eyes at him, and after a long time, Hollywood has to talk about some basic rules.

But it is.

After all, the audience is not a fool, but they still have their own ability to appreciate. It is a good movie to insist that a bad movie is a good movie.

It will only ruin your reputation.

Chapter 32 Premiere

There's only one case where they'll use their fame to help studios brag about movies.

That's when enough money is given.

Accompanied by the boasting in the newspapers, Escape from the Deadly Town suddenly became furious.

Proud of the publicity in advance, the masses already have a basic understanding of escaping from the fatal town. This is a thriller with a black man as the male protagonist.

Filmed by talented new director Steve Kevin.

At the same time, so many film critics exaggerated and exaggerated about escape from the dead, and it really aroused the interest of many people.

Some fans who are already fond of thrillers have expressed to the media that they want to take a look at the latest masterpiece of director Kevin.

With these calls, time quickly arrived on April 29, two days before the trial of the four police officers who assaulted Rodney King.

The premiere of Escape from the Dead has begun.

The first movie screening was in the Warner Bros. cinema chain in Los Angeles.

This is a relatively large-scale movie theater, which also has a venue for showing more than 30 movies at the same time.

As his first starring film, Will Smith worked hard for the promotion of this film, not only mobilizing relatives and friends.

He even tried his best to greet a lot of friends in the rap industry, and used their strength to greet those gang members, or some of their fans, to watch this movie.

The cinema, which can accommodate thousands of people, was already full at this time.

Dean couldn't help shivering when he looked at the scene outside, and looked at Kevin nervously and said:

"With so many black people, no accident will happen, right?"

Nine out of ten black rappers of this era were gang-related, and most of their audiences were also black.

And black people in this era are the representative of restlessness and the symbol of violence.

The reason why the United States has never restricted people from holding guns is somehow inseparable from the domestic contradictions.

Kevin's face was full of smiles, but his heart was also a little nervous.

For black people, what he learned from the news in his previous life was not a thing.

0 yuan purchase, violence, are their symbols.

If there is a real trouble, none of the people present will try to run away.

Thinking of this, Kevin quickly approached Will Smith's side and whispered:

"There won't be any trouble, will it?"

"Don't worry, these are my family and friends, and they won't make trouble at the premiere of my movie."

Will Smith said confidently.

At this point, Kevin can't do anything else, as for calling the police to maintain order.

With the relationship between the police and black people, everything will cause trouble.

At this critical juncture, Warner Bros. had enough experience in this kind of thing, and urgently hired some black security guards from other theaters in Los Angeles to come here to maintain order on the scene.

Also black, Will Smith's fans and friends who were present finally didn't feel so offended, and the current order is gradually becoming more stable.

Then came the premiere.

Kevin, Will Smith, Angelina Jolie and Dean made their debut on the stage of the movie theater.

Will Smith, as the leading actor and also the most famous singer, played a role in this premiere and vigorously promoted it.

"My friends, welcome everyone to the premiere of my first film in the lead role. It's a great honor to be here, and I'm very grateful for your support."

Will Smith was in high spirits on stage.

Judging from the support of Warner Bros. for Escape from Breakthrough, this is definitely a good work, and it is very beneficial to his development in the film industry.

There is an air of superstition in Hollywood.

A young actor who succeeds one after another has even more chances than a superstar who loses one after another.

If the first step is successful, Will Smith will be able to get better opportunities in the future, and in Hollywood at this time, black faces are extremely rare, which means that there are actually many opportunities for black people.

After Will Smith spoke, several well-known black singers he invited also spoke at the scene about supporting Chinese, and then the film began to be shown.

For gangsters, movies have never been their first choice for entertainment.

White people will always occupy the mainstream in movies, and black people also have no sense of substitution for the roles played by white people.

Therefore, in the past, the contribution of black people to the movie box office has been very small.

Film companies often rarely add some black favorite storylines to their movies.

....

It is rare for the black people to sit quietly on the viewing platform. Thanks to the relationship of Will Smith, these people were emphasized before coming to help their brothers warm up the scene.

Therefore, they all forcibly suppressed their own nature.

Watching the movie quietly.

However, at the beginning of the film, the relationship between black and white women's boyfriends and girlfriends instantly aroused the excitement of these blacks.

The cinema suddenly boiled over.

"Hey bro, look, Smith's awesome, he's got a white girlfriend."

"Hey, my wife is also white, didn't I tell you?"

"Damn Jem..."

"..."

Kevin, who was sitting in the front row, couldn't help but smile when he heard the reaction of these black people.

Black Americans have a weird psyche and are verbally dismissive of whites, but if black men achieve a certain level of achievement, their first choice is often white women.

This may be due to the special emotion of a slave turning over to be a master.

Therefore, seeing the settings in the plot, the black audience immediately came to the spirit.

The plot continues.

As Ruth's first boyfriend of color, Chris couldn't help but get nervous when he was about to meet his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but his girlfriend Ruth told him not to worry.

Said that the town where her parents lived did not discriminate against black people, and her parents liked black people very much.

This relieved Chris a little from his nervousness.

So Chris and Ruth set out on their way home. On the way, Ruth, who was driving, accidentally hit and killed a deer that came out of Dead Town.

Chris couldn't turn a blind eye to hit-and-runs because of his childhood experiences.

Get out of the car and check what's going on.

A police car came, and a white policeman got out and asked where Chris was going and where he came from.

Then ask to check ID.

Unlike China, the police in the United States check a person's identity information, which means that the police treat the person as a criminal.

In this case, the police have the right to fire at any time.

Every year in the United States, countless black people die because they resist censorship.

Chapter 33 Excited Audience

This scene immediately resonated with the audience below the stage.

"FUCK the police, he didn't do anything, why check him."

"If you kill him, he shouldn't live!"

"..."

The foul language was frequently sent out, and the few people watching the movie in front of the stage were not only not afraid, but very happy.

A movie that resonates with audiences is nowhere near as bad.

The foul language of the audience is the best recognition of this movie.

Then the female owner who drove the car got out of the car and prevented the police from deliberately targeting her boyfriend. This scene immediately won the favor of all the audience in the audience.

"Ruth is so perfect, I wish I had a girlfriend like that."

"Yeah, compared to those Bichi, Ruth is really nice and pretty."

Angelina Jolie's beauty bonus has made Ruth a lot of popularity.

And through this maintenance, the male protagonist's love for Ruth almost overflowed from the screen, making the audience in front of the screen full of dog food.

At this time, no one thought that this was a thriller that was promoted in the name of horror.

The car continued to drive and came to the town.

After seeing Ruth's parents, Chris finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her parents did not discriminate against him, on the contrary, they were very enthusiastic towards him, and their enthusiasm was somewhat unreasonable.

Ruth's father also enthusiastically led Chris to visit the development history of their family and the golf course in the backyard.

However, the black nanny with a weird smile and the black gardener with a stiff expression made Chris feel that something was wrong.

Immediately after dinner time, Chris chatted with Ruth and her family.

Ruth's mother tapped the glass and made a noise.

Suddenly, Chris became addicted to cigarettes, and his hands habitually imitated the action of flicking soot.

Ruth's father suddenly said that smoking is not a good habit. His wife is an excellent hypnotist, and she can completely solve the problem of smoking addiction by giving her a treatment and hypnosis.

Chris declined, and the black nanny and gardener in front made him feel a little bit wrong.

Facing this sudden kindness, Chris instinctively felt something was wrong.

At this moment, the black nanny brought the food and smiled at Chris at the same time.

A normal smile will make people feel good and make people feel happy.

But the smile of the black nanny only made the audience feel a sense of horror. It was not a smile that a normal person should have.

night.

Chris was lying in bed thinking about everything that happened during the day. The strange feeling made him toss and turn and couldn't fall asleep. Finally, he got up and lit a cigarette, went to the door and started smoking.

The weird black gardener in the daytime suddenly ran towards him from a distance. Before Chris could react, the black gardener turned back and quickly left.
