The business car gradually faded away, and a gaze on the second floor accompanied by the car that was leaving slowly retracted. Behind the female reporter was a staff member busy packing things, but she stood at the window, her eyes kept staring at the Hollywood director who was leaving until the car disappeared into the night in Washington.

"A young man full of personal charisma, right, Jennifer."

A joke came from behind the female reporter. A director stood beside her and looked side by side at the night outside the window. At this time, a movie happened to have just ended at the front door of the theater. Countless movie fans were talking about the topic of Batman and the Joker, and disappeared in front of the theater in a bustling manner.

"Yes, if I were twenty years younger, I would definitely give him my number on my own initiative." The female reporter named Jennifer shrugged and said generously and straightforwardly: "Maybe they might not be able to go back to the hotel with him."

"Wow, don't be stupid, dear editor-in-chief Jennifer." The colleague standing beside him shook his head helplessly and exposed the woman's fantasy without mercy. "This guy is the most famous playboy in the United States. A female star who wants to climb onto his bed can line up from Los Angeles to San Francisco, so prepare to work overtime tonight."

As he said, Wayne himself could go to the hotel to rest without any psychological burden, but on this ordinary Sunday night in mid-to-late May, media industry practitioners in North America were destined to lose the opportunity to sleep normally, and overtime became an inevitable thing.

As time passed by, the theaters in major cities in North America gradually ended today's screening work one after another, sending away the last batch of customers of the theater. Statistics about "Jurassic Park 2" and "Batman: The Dark Knight" were also sent from major theaters throughout North America to the headquarters company.

In this era when the network was not yet applied to the theater system, all box office statistics must be sent first by the theater manager to their respective headquarters companies, and then there will be special third-party statistics companies to summarize them quickly and accurately calculate various data, and finally send them to the distribution company, media, etc. In this era, there is basically no possibility of simplification.

When it was twelve o'clock in the evening and it was getting closer to the early morning, Burbank, the media capital of Los Angeles, was more crowded than the crowd during the day. The streets are now extremely quiet, but several buildings remain brightly lit. There are many authoritative media, especially those related to entertainment.

All newspapers were waiting anxiously, especially those editors and senior executives who usually didn't see each other's heads and tails, and they were rarely sitting quietly in their respective offices.

Not only Burbank, the media capital in Los Angeles, but also the Chicago Sun newspaper building in Chicago, Times Square where many media outlets in New York are located, and the Washington Post newspaper where Wayne just recently interviewed not long ago tonight, are all brightly lit, and a large number of staff are working overtime.

An interview manuscript that had just been sorted out was held in the hand by editor-in-chief Jennifer. She quickly knocked on the door of the editor-in-chief's office. When the door was opened by the secretary, the scene inside surprised her. Almost all the editor-in-chiefs of the Washington Post were gathered in this small office at this time.

Edwards Jackson, editor-in-chief of the Washington Post, sat behind her desk. When she saw Jennifer come in, she was not in a hurry to watch the interview draft she had compiled after rushing for half a night. She just pointed to the empty space left and signaled her to sit down for a meeting first.

"It's all you need, just right, let's have an emergency meeting first."

Editor-in-chief Edwards Jackson knocked on the table with one hand, and the secretary consciously pulled up the shutters separated from the outside of the office. "If nothing unexpected happens, we will issue an additional special issue tomorrow, Jennifer, your interview manuscript will also be placed in this special issue."

Hearing the editor-in-chief, several editors in the office couldn't help but stand up. This is Washington. The newspaper they work for is the Washington Post, which shows its authority! It can make this authoritative newspaper with great influence in North America and even the world publish special issues, which shows how much influence the matter to be published.

“Will it be…”

An editor-in-chief who is mainly responsible for newspaper typesetting pointed to the manuscript that Jennifer put on his desk, and his tone was full of incredible. "We shouldn't have released an additional entertainment special issue for the film director or the Batman movie that is being released?"

Edwards Jackson nodded. "That's right!"

Several editors now have instantly become energetic, including Jennifer, who just interviewed Wayne tonight. The Washington Post does have an entertainment section, but they are authoritative media with distribution scope all over the world. The content and style of the report are mainly based on major social news. Entertainment is not the focus of this authoritative media at all.

In the style of their newspaper, it is actually two lines parallel to the entertainment industry full of gossip. Even the news related to entertainment published every day is mainly realistic. Such as the behavior of issuing additional entertainment special issues is the first time since the establishment of the Washington Post. This shows how surprised these editors this decision has surprised these editors.

"It's two o'clock in the morning." Editor-in-chief Edwards Jackson did not give everyone a time to report it. He raised his wrist and looked at the watch and continued: "When the North American theater market statistics came last week, we mainly wrote the movie "Batman: The Dark Knight" and wrote a box office news. The special issue issued by the additional issue was also mainly Wayne Greenberg."

Editor-in-chief Jennifer was very excited when she heard the editor-in-chief's words. She was not lying at least when facing Wayne. She was indeed one of Wayne's fans, so she has been paying attention to the box office trend of "Batman: The Dark Knight".

With the movie viewing craze that has only been launched for more than a week, all the box office records in the North American theater market can be said to have been broken in an instant. In the past weekend, the box office results of this film are destined to break more people's attention.

But even so, Wayne was the first Hollywood director to let The Washington Post issue a special issue for a special issue. He was the only one among the North American directors who received such honors.

This is just a scene that happened in the Washington Post newspaper, and this scene is also happening continuously in other major newspapers in North America. However, compared with the Washington Post, which focuses on serious and realistic news, other media that mainly report entertainment gossip are trying their best to add content about Wayne to the special issue issued tomorrow.

It is really amazing that the results of "Batman: The Dark Knight" have been so amazing that they used up all the praises as early as the box office of the movie's first weekend.

As the sky gradually turned white, another working day had arrived Monday. Various newspapers related to the box office in North America last weekend were also delivered to the entire North American public in the morning. The titles of each media may be different, but the main tone is surprisingly consistent.

The first thing to be affected is the Washington Post. This authoritative media has specially issued a special issue title:

“Death, tax payment, and Wayne’s successful movies, these three things will be with this generation of young people for the rest of their lives!

In the past weekend, the enthusiasm of North America's summer season is still high. Last weekend, in the North American theater market, there was only one large-scale film "Jurassic Park 2". The film achieved a good result of US$44.9 million on the day of its painting. The box office fell on Saturday, closing at US$31.75 million and US$23.6 million on Sunday. Although the overall trend was on the decline, the box office successfully exceeded 100 million in the first weekend of the release, and the total box office in North America closed at US$100.25 million!

As "Jurassic Park 2" achieved outstanding results as soon as it was released, the North American theater market figures continued to rise this week. According to data investigated by our reporter, this is the highest weekend in the North American theater market since the emergence of this summer. The reason for the audience's viewing frenzy is not "Jurassic Park 2", which was painted last weekend.

The North American theater market continued to rise during the summer season, mainly because the screening of "Batman: The Dark Knight" which entered the next weekend, the latest masterpiece of the new Oscar-winning director Wayne Greenberg, ushered in a strong rebound on the first day of the next weekend, and hit $47.5 million in the North American theater market on Friday!

$35.27 million on Saturday and $31.66 million on Sunday. The next weekend, it took $119 million from the North American theater market again. The total box office of "Batman: The Dark Knight" was $399 million, and it won the weekend box office championship for the second time, and it temporarily ranked first in the 1997 annual box office list. The film's North American box office has reached an infinitely close to $400 million. Perhaps before this night, it may become the first movie in North American film history with a box office of over $400 million!

"Jurassic Park 2" by famous Hollywood director Steven Spielberg, although the box office of the first weekend of the painting successfully exceeded 100 million, the film has been tightly pressed by "Batman: The Dark Knight" for three days. The film's performance is average and more in line with the outside world's expectations..."

"Is there anything else?" Wayne, who had just woken up early in the morning, smiled and shook his head at the Washington Post in his hand. He did not continue reading. The content behind was almost all kinds of praise for him. These uninformed praises were just passed by quickly and put down the newspaper in his hand.

"Well, this, the Los Angeles Times special issue on Batman: The Dark Knight." Nina yawned and handed her boss a new newspaper.

"The highly anticipated movie "Jurassic Park 2" started a large-scale painting last weekend, and the box office exceeded 100 million in three days in the first weekend, but this masterpiece by Steven Spielberg is destined to be a foil for Wayne Greenberg and "Batman: The Dark Knight". This DC epic masterpiece, which has entered the second week, continued to crush the theater market last weekend, and the total box office has reached a terrifying $399 million..."
