"Audience friends, I'm at the gate of the cinema, and the one behind me is one of the most popular cinemas in Los Angeles. Through the lens, we can see that the number of people in and out of the audience is really considerable, let people really feel a fact: summer has finally come

Wendy haddock, the location hostess of Fox TV station, is standing in front of the camera with a microphone. She is recording the interview. Her face is full of bright smile and warm gesture, which benefits from the bright and hot sunshine of Los Angeles.

"All along, Saturday is the peak time for film viewing, and the opening battle of this summer festival has attracted countless attention. I believe every audience has their own choice and judgment, and they are looking forward to seeing more excellent films. Just now we interviewed the cinema manager and learned that as of 3 p.m., the number of people watching movies in a single day in today's cinema has reached the highest record of this year, and the attendance rate of movies has exceeded 50%. The summer archives really deserve their reputation

At this moment, the bustling scene behind Wendy is reminiscent of the bustle and bustle of the new year's Eve party, showing the powerful power of the summer camp. More and more attention is focused on the opening battle.

For Paramount and Raytheon, it's a torment, a bitter battle, and a disaster. They don't even know how they got into a dilemma; But for journalists, it's a Carnival Party. Even the TV station couldn't help but participate in it, and personally arrived at the scene to interview the grand occasion, hoping to foresee the development trend of the opening battle at the first time.

If - just assuming, if Raytheon's premiere box office fails to match the next week's box office of "speed and passion 5" and loses the winner of the North American weekend box office, then it's equivalent to lighting the crater. No, it's equivalent to throwing a ton of dynamite into the crater. For the news media, this is the New Year party.

"Then, let's go into the opening battle that has attracted the attention of the whole North America." Wendy waved to her cameraman, walked to the audience, and soon found an interviewee, "which work are you here to watch?"

"Speed and passion 5." Standing in front of him was a tattooed man. He simply replied that, after Wendy's questioning, he explained, "I originally intended to watch Thor. I saw it in the Super Bowl midfield ad before, but I heard that the movie was boring, so I chose 'speed and passion 5'. The tickets for this movie are very popular. I came a little late today and even had to wait in line. Finally, I missed the deadline for the 3:30 show and only got the 3:30 show. "

"Thor, of course, is Thor." Wendy's second interviewee is a young man who looks like a college student. His face is full of affirmation, but he attracted Wendy's attention. He mentioned the recent comments on "Thor". Unexpectedly, the young man waved his hand and showed a big smile on his face, "no, no, No. I mean, I know the reviews, but I don't care. I'm a big fan of marvel. It doesn't matter whether other people like it or not. The important thing is, I support it unconditionally. "

In addition, there are two movies that you choose to watch, such as the couple in front of you, "yes, we will watch both movies. Whether it's good or bad, you don't know until you've seen it yourself. What's more, the two movies have created too many topics. We also want to see what kind of works they are. Anyway, we have nothing else to do with our date today. "

Later, Wendy interviewed a ticket clerk who had just finished work and asked about the ticket sales of the two films. The middle-aged woman in her early 30s gave an unexpected answer, "yes, Raytheon's ticket sales speed is now ahead for the time being, and the advantage is very weak, but it is true."

Wendy didn't hide her surprise. "Is that true?"

After witnessing the box office decline on Friday, the mainstream view is not optimistic about the box office trend of "Raytheon", especially when the media and audience reputation are at a disadvantage. Is "Raytheon" going to walk out of the box office curve of "Transformers 2"?

"For now, it is. Now, Raytheon's pre-sale results are still ahead, but the real-time ticket sales of speed and passion 5 are rising rapidly. The viewing of this afternoon and evening is still unknown. " The staff member was calm and calm. To tell the truth, he was obviously familiar with this kind of interview. "Moreover, this is only the situation of our cinema, and other cinemas don't know."

Looking back on the interview, Wendy can't help nodding, "Raytheon" and "speed and passion 5" are really inseparable. But thanks to the premiere this week, and the huge energy of "speed and passion 5" burst out last week, Raytheon really has some advantages now.

But this is not good news for Raytheon. Originally, he was looking forward to a great victory, but now he is in such a hard struggle. Moreover, he is still facing the box office of the next week of "speed and passion 5". The situation is not optimistic. What's more, the current advantage is very weak, the situation is still extremely anxious, whether to win is still unknown.

After saying goodbye to the staff member, Wendy is ready to continue her interview, but her sight catches a tall and strong figure. The first reaction was just because of the physique, which was a little conspicuous in the turbulent crowd. But then Wendy narrowed her eyes slightly. With a flash of inspiration in her mind, she blurted out, "Chris!"

That's Chris Hemsworth!

Wendy didn't even have time to greet her entourage photographer, so she rushed to the cinema. But at this time, the crowd was too turbulent, and the crowd blocked her way one after another. Wendy could only watch the figure disappear in the crowd.

Then the photographer came up and asked what was going on. Wendy stamped her foot in frustration. "I think I saw Chris."

"True or false?" Photographers do not believe, "they are now in a period of intensive publicity, not to mention how the premiere box office, in a short period of time, their publicity density will certainly not drop, how can they have time to come to the cinema?" Wendy thought it over and found that she couldn't refute it. "You must have read it wrong."

Wendy gave a long sigh. "Maybe I'm too eager."

Chris Hemsworth only felt a cold sweat oozing from his back. He was already wearing a baseball cap, but he was recognized? Does this mean that his recognition has risen to a new level? Originally, this was a good thing, but he was not happy. He quickly lowered his hat brim and walked towards the ticket counter.

This morning, the "Thor" crew has just finished a live broadcast of a radio program, interviews with two magazines and photos taken on two websites. In the evening, they are going to open fan meetings in major cities in North America. The first stop of the evening is to go to Las Vegas. The publicity itinerary was full, and there was no rest time for the next half month, but they had four hours of free time before going to the airport, which was why he came to the cinema.

Sitting in a hotel or in a bar, he was on pins and needles. He couldn't calm down, especially after the box office on Friday, the atmosphere of the whole crew was extremely depressed.

Although the publicity team and the agent team are trying to cheer everyone up, everyone cheers up and pretends there is still hope; But after quieting down, the dull atmosphere is still almost breathless, and the bad box office data is like a huge stone, weighing heavily on the chest——

Each of them knows that hope still exists, which is a fact, but it is more and more dim, and is disappearing bit by bit.

Chris doesn't want to admit this reality. To be exact, the whole crew and Paramount Pictures don't want to admit this reality. They are still looking forward to a miracle, or yearning for a miracle.

Chris knows that in front of the media, they still need to show tolerance and confidence. They don't care about the negative comments, but show the appearance of active learning and listening; Worried about the box office trend, but showed a gesture of giving the audience more trust. Only in this way can the box office recover.

However, he still lacks confidence after all. Upset, confused, anxious.

One moment I think of lanli's contemptuous appearance, one moment I think of lanli's arrogant appearance, one moment I think of my determined appearance, one moment I think of my striving for sol, one moment I think of lanli's disheartened appearance after his success, Later, he remembered that lanli was still out on Broadway. All kinds of confused thoughts made him feel like he was on pins and needles. So he appeared in the cinema nearest to the hotel.

He didn't know what he was thinking.

Perhaps, he wants to witness with his own eyes whether the crowd of "Thor" is so bad; Perhaps, he can listen to the audience's comments and increase some confidence; Maybe he should watch "speed and passion 5" to spy on the enemy; Maybe, he should pretend to communicate directly with the audience and publicize "Thor"

Maybe he can buy a ticket in person and contribute to the box office of Raytheon - maybe he can pack a whole row of seats and make more contributions to the box office. But if the audience wants to watch the movie, but because of his behavior, they can't buy tickets, so they simply turn to "speed and passion 5", isn't that counterproductive? Or is he not so noticeable?

What kind of scene cinema is, in the description of the media, there is still a lack of realism. This kind of empty feeling also makes them more uncertain about the box office of Raytheon. 23 million, which is not good, but what is the picture in the cinema?

Maybe he can gain some confidence.
