691 - They are only temporary partners

Facing the first ray of sunshine in Los Angeles, an extended Rolles Phantom sedan turned into Greenberg Manor at the end of Beverly Mulholland Road. Wayne, who was sitting behind the car, revealed fatigue on his face, but with a hint of pleasure as if he had vented.

The car stopped in the small square in front of the main building. The butler Hela was already waiting by the fountain. He bent down slightly and opened the car door.

"Ms. Watts has a bad face, sir."

Hearing the butler's whisper, Wayne patted the wrinkles that did not exist on his shirt and shrugged gently. "Where is she?"

"Eat breakfast in the restaurant." Haila followed him slowly.

He raised his wrist and looked at the time. Wayne nodded secretly. It was less than 7 o'clock now. It seemed that he was not too late to come back. Although he had fought with the two "Charlie's Angels" for most of the night, at least he did not miss seeing off his child's mother, right?

In fact, most outstanding men have one thing on the surface and one behind the other. Naomi Watts is now deeply touched by this.

Especially when I saw the man who walked into the restaurant openly, he was nearly 1.9 meters tall, with a tough and handsome face, deep eyes, and a erect brown round buzz cut. With a slim and slim British handmade suit three-piece suit and shiny leather shoes, at least from the outside image, he had successfully squeezed into the circle of outstanding men.

He has been competing with Hollywood celebrities, investing in film companies, and working closely with superstars in the circle. The works he films are regarded as the guarantee of commercial achievements, and his ability to make money in the film industry is the best since Hollywood's commercialization.

When all these conditions are concentrated on a man under thirty years old, I believe that 99% of the girls in the world will lose all their resistance. Don’t blame all kinds of hot girls, queuing up and trying all their tricks to climb onto his bed.

Naomi Watts had already figured out all this when she gave birth to this man. But what made her angry last night was that this man was actually taken away by two "coons" in front of her with a few words and deliberately showing off her charm!

"f**k, Hela, are I dazzled?" Nerome Watts thumped, putting the half-drinking milk cup in his hand back on the dining table. Then, with an incredibly surprised expression, he looked at the butler who handed the breakfast for the man.

"God, Hela, tell me all this is true? Our dark "tyrant" rushed back to his home early in the morning, and he actually knew to go home?! The shit is so disappointing. Didn't those two b***hs make him unable to get up from the bed?"

"Nami!"

Although her face was thick enough, Wayne frowned helplessly, raised his hand and knocked hard on the table, and glared at the Australian girl fiercely.

Then he winked at Hela next to him in secret. When the butler lowered his head and quickly withdrew from the restaurant, he acted as if he was not afraid of boiling water. While making a hand, he put on a piece of scrambled eggs and said with a smile: "Nami, you know, they are just temporary partners."

"Ahhh, my friend who is getting out of the sheets, ha?"

Naomi Watts knew that he was so angry that he was bleak when he saw his expression. He simply rolled his eyes, sighed in his heart, and picked up half of the milk he drank on the dining table again.

In fact, Australian girls are very smart and understand the deep meaning of a man's "temporary partner". The other party is actually expressing a certain attitude to him.

More importantly, men also know very clearly that they should rush back before leaving Los Angeles in the morning to run for publicity. To a certain extent, the "temporary partner" is definitely not as good as the "life partner", right?

"Have you packed your luggage?"

Wayne's tone did not change from usual, just like he didn't see a woman's bad-looking face at all. Because he was chewing scrambled eggs in his mouth, his voice said in a sensation: "Angelina Jolie and Cameron Diaz have already rushed to the airport one early. Do you want me to send you?"

"No, let Sergey send me."

Just thinking about the three of them last night, Naomi Watts couldn't help but curl his lips, and finally shook his head. "Dear Director Greenberg, remember to go to the farm to see Little Fendi. Our little princess misses her father. By the way..."

While wiping his mouth with a tissue, the Australian girl stood up from the dining table and told her, "You'd better pray to God at home, pray that I won't be able to help but beat those two bad guys."

After saying that, he ignored the man's reaction and turned around and walked out of the restaurant with vaguely hearing her conversation with Hela, asking the butler to help get his luggage.

Some things must be expressed in a necessary attitude, but they must never exceed the degree of patience of men. Naomi Watts has a very thorough understanding of such things. It is okay to show his own temper appropriately, but if he passes a certain critical point, it will only cause unnecessary disgust from the other party.

To put it bluntly, there is no legal contract or moral contract between them that needs to fulfill their responsibilities. At least the two are free. This is why she did not stop the man from leaving with two "Charlie's Angels" on their left and right.

Even among ordinary young men and women in North America, there are more friends and relationships, let alone the more chaotic relationships.

Not to mention singles like Wayne, even those couples in the circle who enter the marriage hall and swear loyalty to each other in front of God will not be able to play with their own personalities. A relationship like "temporary partners" is not considered anything that needs special attention in the circle. You can know that it is everywhere if you know it casually.

For crew, cocktail parties, various social events, men and women in the circle look at each other and turn their heads and roll onto a sheet. If both parties feel good about this time, then this "temporary partner" relationship will last for a few more weeks. If the situation is the opposite, then wave to each other casually and say goodbye.

Even ordinary little stars encounter countless temptations every day in Hollywood, let alone top-notch big bosses like Wayne.

Naomi Watts had already figured out this out early, so he never thought about going into a marriage that bounds both parties with Wayne.

She knew that no normal man could resist the temptation that was everywhere in the circle. Instead of letting himself live as a suspicious woman for the rest of his life, it would be better to take a step back and give each other more freedom and space.

"Ha, it seems that I'm going to get off for a very suitable time." The sound of footsteps sounded in the restaurant, accompanied by a joking greeting. "Good morning, boss."

Wayne looked up and saw the assistant lady who covered her mouth and yawned while pulling her chair open. She burped and threw the steel fork in her hand back into the dining plate. He raised an eyebrow at Nina. "It seems you've woken up long ago. If you came down early, you might have seen a war of the century."

"Boss, I'm very hungry now, but I'm not hungry as a fool now."

Habitually pushing the glasses on her face, the assistant lady glanced at her boss helplessly and said, "With Nami's personality, it is likely that she will just say a few more words. She needs to know your personality more than anyone else, unless she really wants to turn against you."

As the only close woman around Wayne who has no relationship with him, Nina always looks at things objectively and can always stand from the perspective of a bystander and analyze everyone's movement trajectory and choices. Although she herself also feels that the boss is a perfect scumbag.

"Just just now, Warner Bros. Distribution Department called." It seemed that in the world of Assistant Miss, business is always the theme of getting along with Wayne. After a few jokes, she stuffed food into her mouth and reported: "The fans who premiered "Charlie's Angels" have a good reputation, and the average score fluctuates between B+ and A. The distribution department called and said that they would adjust their promotional and distribution strategies at any time based on the subsequent performance of the film..."

In any aspect, the director of "Charlie's Angels" is a novice. The Warner Bros. distribution department arranged a large-scale theater chain for the film and held a grand premiere for the film, which was basically all due to Wayne's relationship.

Otherwise, let alone letting films like "Charlie's Angels" be released in North America on a large scale, even if Warner Bros. takes over the release of the film, it will definitely start with a small preview.

"I see."

After Nina finished reporting intermittently, Wayne nodded with a cigarette in her mouth. "Prepare, let's go back to the farm to see Little Fendi when you have time."

Leave professional matters to professionals, he understands very well that the staff of Warner Bros. distribution department of the promotional and distribution work of "Charlie's Angels" are professional. As long as the publicity and marketing can keep up, the film will most likely not have bad results.

Not to mention behind "Charlie's Angels", I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at it, especially a group of Warner Bros. executives and shareholders, who are very clear about the significance of the success or failure of this film to Warner Bros.

Even since the official large-scale painting was officially launched this morning, Warner Bros. and DC Comics have sent many investigation teams to start watching the response of "Charlie's Angels" in order to obtain first-hand market data earlier.

Just because of these very "special" attention, "Charlie's Angel" will not make mistakes in publicity and distribution. After being here for so many years and having been on Hollywood Zhongbian for so many years, Wayne has never been an ideal person. He understands the importance of publicity and marketing to the achievements of a commercial film.

There is a point that when it comes to Hollywood, it is exactly the opposite of the education he received in his previous life, that is, don’t be superstitious about what “gold will always shine”!

That’s right, “gold will always shine”. It’s a nonsense in the Hollywood film industry. Based on his experiences he has learned from childhood to adulthood, even if the gold is covered by a ragged rag, this piece of gold will never shine!

So there is one principle for commercial movies, that is, when you can promote it for a long time, don’t worry about every cent you invest. You must have how much money you spend, how much media resources you spend, and how much media resources you spend.

Good box office numbers are always inseparable from intensive bombardment marketing, just like the media resources that Warner Bros. smashed on "Charlie's Angels".

Just as Wayne got in the car and returned to his father's farm, the information related to "Charlie's Angels" this weekend began to appear in major North American media instantly. Roadside billboards in the city center, stand-up posters everywhere in the theater, TV advertisements, newspaper soft articles, magazine revelations, and photos of three sexy and hot female stars seemed to appear in everyone's sight within a day.

Even countless entertainment gossip tabloids have begun to publish the bumpy love stories that three female stars have to tell with Wayne.

Since this weekend, the new work released with "Charlie's Angels" is only one "Six Days and Seven Nights" released by Bowei International, a subsidiary of Disney. However, the promotional scale of this "Six Days and Seven Nights" is far from comparable to "Charlie's Angels".

In addition, a series of popular films such as "The Flash", "Godzilla", "The Great Crash of Heaven and Earth" some time ago have passed the hottest screening period, so the only films that can be called "Charlie's Angels" this weekend are "Six Days and Seven Nights" and "The Horse Whisperer" released last weekend.

With a large amount of intensive publicity and bombing, the largest scale of painting opening this weekend, it can be said that "Charlie's Angels" occupied all favorable conditions. After successfully allowing movie fans to enter the theater, "Charlie's Angels" was regarded as the first choice for watching movies.

As the weekend three days passed and the latest working day arrived, "Charlie's Angels" did not become the headline of the entertainment media, because after five weekends, "The Flash" successfully broke through to 300 million US dollars at a speed that shocked all media attention!

Although the film's performance in the theater market has been a cliff-like decline since the fourth week of the release of "The Flash", its performance in the first three weekends was too strong. Even though the box office fell to one million dollars in the later period, it still managed to successfully make the box office in North America exceed 300 million US dollars in a short period of time, reaching 3016 million US dollars with the huge advantages accumulated in the early stage.

Everyone knows that with the film attributes of "The Flash", it is basically impossible for the later box office to continue to maintain a high trend, but this film still has a long time to screen. What kind of box office numbers can be obtained in the end depends on when Warner Bros. is preparing to let the film be removed.

However, the special commercial film model of "The Flash" has taught all Hollywood film companies a lesson. "The Flash" has achieved more than 80% of the total box office of the film a few weeks before its release, and has successfully allowed all film companies to see the profitability of pure visual special effects commercial films.

"Charlie's Angels" was stolen by the North American box office of 300 million in "The Flash", which does not mean that its box office failed. This film, with the main selling point of three "sexy hot girls", also achieved amazing box office results on the first weekend of its release.

"At the beginning of this year's summer season, the DC series "The Flash" directed by Wayne Greenberg still did not disappoint North American fans. After last weekend, this superhero with extremely shocking audio and video special effects successfully crossed the threshold of 300 million US dollars in the North American box office.

"Charlie's Angels", also directed and invested by Wayne Greenberg last weekend, officially launched a large-scale painting in 2,800 theaters in North America, and the box office was 68.5 million US dollars in three days on the first weekend. This film, starring three female stars, had a box office of up to 24,600 US dollars in a single studio, successfully topped the box office championship last weekend!

According to many professionals in the circle, the production cost of this "Charlie's Angels" will definitely not exceed 70 million US dollars. Among the three main actors, only Cameron Diaz's salary is close to 10 million, so Wayne Greenberg's investment in the movie can be said to be all recovered in one weekend, which is a classic investment example of Hollywood commercial films!

The second-place box office last weekend was the film "Six Days and Seven Nights" released by Disney's distribution company Bowei International. This film successfully won 31.23 million US dollars in three days of the first weekend..."---"Premiere"

"Charlie's Angels", the entire screen is full of scenes that make men drool. Angelina Jolie, Naomi Watts, Cameron Diaz, these three actors with different temperaments but also hot figures are simply adding another big hit in the hot summer season..." --- "Daily Entertainment"

"The groundbreaking female action movies, sexy "angel" figure, clothing, action awards, and another new idea of ​​commercial action movies in the late 1990s, Cameron Diaz's legs, Angelina Jolie's bear, Naomi Watts' waist, and the rhythm, editing, action design of the film are everywhere that makes the audience excited"---"Holly Door Reporter"

Mainstream entertainment media fully affirmed "Charlie's Angels" on Monday morning. Strictly speaking, "Charlie's Angels" is still a typical commercial popcorn, but the unexpected starring of three sexy hot girls makes this film a beautiful landscape in late June.

As the film continues to be screened, the three heroines who are promoting outside have become the "angels" of most men in North America for a time. Every time they go to a place, a large number of male fans will go crazy about it.

When the film was screened in the North American theater market for a week, the box office of "Charlie's Angels" had reached 88.65 million US dollars. This box office result was exactly in line with the expectations of Wayne and Warner Bros. They all knew that the film's box office in North America this weekend will definitely exceed 100 million.

According to relevant media statistics, from a purely female perspective, "Charlie's Angels" is likely to become Hollywood's first female film with a box office of over 100 million yuan in North America.

There are countless works better than this film, but if the starring role is limited to pure female actors, the first thing people think of is a niche art film. In other words, this film is likely to be the only female-themed film that can exceed 100 million in North America.

This situation has also gained more attention for "Charlie's Angels". The media's successive reports, the spontaneous word-of-mouth spread of male fans, and some female organizations that can't wait to jump out have laid a solid foundation for the film's screening the next weekend.

The performance of "Charlie's Angels" did not disappoint those who followed it. After the second weekend in the North American theater market, the box office successfully exceeded 100 million US dollars, reaching 13.25 million US dollars.

Not only was the overseas distribution of the film included in the work plan by Warner Bros., and even the second part of the film's script was written, Warner Bros. senior executives have begun to tempt Wayne's meaning. Obviously, this is the consistent principle of Hollywood's large film companies. As long as the movie can make money, they don't mind keeping filming.

Especially the peripheral performance of "Charlie's Angels" is far better than Wayne and Warner Bros. The character dolls of Angelina Jolie, Naomi Watts and Cameron Diaz have almost become essential things for male movie charming hands.

From late June and until early July, Wayne was basically on a state of intermittent vacation, but his eyes did not leave the hot summer season, nor did he leave the "Charlie's Angels", which was obsessed with countless male mystery.

However, this is the hottest period in North America. Even "Charlie's Angels" only dominated the theater market for two consecutive weekends. When July 1st arrived, a "Perfect Heavenly Tribulation" released by Disney's Bowei International stole all the limelight as soon as it was released.

Explosion Bell's dominance in the summer season, or in the field of popcorn commercial films, is almost no less famous than Wayne's start in the summer season.

This work, starring first-line actor Bruce Willis, continues the usual hot scenes of Blast Bell, and even opened the painting scale of 3,127 theaters in North America. It won a terrifying box office of 36.09 million US dollars on its first day of release!

At the same time, with the release of "The Peerless Heavenly Tribulation", the short dominance of "Charlie's Angels" in the summer season was also over, but no one can deny the success of this female action film. It has only been three weekends since the film was released, and the box office in North America has reached 119 million US dollars.

After entering July, it officially announced the North American theater market and entered the hottest screening period of the summer season. There are several large-scale productions that are highly anticipated by movie fans, and Wayne has to withdraw from the intermittent short vacation because of the premiere of "Save Private Ryan" in late July, Steven Spielberg personally called the invitation call.
