v2 Chapter 451： Undisputed leader

"The first movie in history with a weekend box office of over 100 million yuan, the first director in history with a weekend box office of over 100 million yuan!"

"Duke Rosenberg became the first person to break 100 million at the weekend box office in North America without any suspense!"

Also on Monday, public opinion was almost crazy. The news that the box office of "The Two Towers" broke 100 million yuan in the first weekend was put on the front page of the headlines. This is a super big event in the history of North American movies. Prince William from abroad is even more attractive.

"Los Angeles Times", "Washington Post", "San Francisco Chronicle", etc., countless major newspapers have placed Duke's portrait and "Two Towers" posters in the most conspicuous position. The bragging remarks can be seen everywhere on the front page.

"Ten years of directorship, Duke Rosenberg's road to becoming a god..."

"No one can compare, no one can compare to Duke Rosenberg today, great work, great director!"

"US$103.03 million, Duke Rosenberg is once again the market king!"

Not only the media, but the public responded strongly. This is the first movie in North American history to have a box office of over 100 million dollars on weekends!

"Congratulations, Evie."

"Ivanka, your boyfriend is really*", it's amazing."

Since sitting in the computer room of the library, Ivanka has never been idle. Many people have come over to say hello and say a few words of congratulations. She is aware of the influence of Duke’s films among the young people, but at the moment The feeling is quite complicated.

The most is definitely joy, even if the object of these people's congratulations is Duke, she is also proud.

It's just that there is a little bit of sourness in the joy, which is also the inevitable psychology of Ivanka, a very enterprising person, and it encourages her to work harder.

Ivanka logged into Duke's website and clicked on the "Two Towers" column. The message board below was almost maxed out.

"The first movie with a box office of over 100 million on weekends, as expected, only my Great Lord of the Rings and Explosive Madness can do it!"

"Looking back at Hollywood in the past ten years, it is not difficult to find that Duke got this result for granted!"

"Is anyone in the Chicago area going to watch "The Two Towers"? Form a team to do it for the third time..."

Then Ivanka went to imdb again and took a casual look. The score is basically stable at 9.2 points, and there are few negative reviews in the comment column.

After reading these, she logged into her instant sharing website with administrator privileges, and immediately noticed something unusual.

On the homepage of the website, there is a short message with a picture that has been topped by countless replies. The number of visits shown below is as high as 170,000 people!

Ivanka couldn't help frowning. As of yesterday, the number of registered users on the entire website was only more than 100,000. How could this article have such a huge number of visitors?

The first thing she thought of was the navy. But instant sharing is just a small website, and it has no value at all.

However, after seeing the picture and the publisher clearly, Ivanka showed a clear expression, with a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, because the person who posted it was Duke’s account, and the content that was posted was the "Return of the King" that countless people care about. "!

Move the mouse and click to open, Ivanka understands that her boyfriend is helping herself, although there are only two or three pictures about the battle between Black Gate and Minastiris. The content he wrote is just as simple as ‘the two battles of "The Return of the King"’, but it is a big hit in "The Two Towers". Countless people are eagerly looking forward to the third part now, it can easily attract a large number of people's attention.

"Really consistent style." Ivanka muttered looking at the picture.

The pictures are all a panoramic view of the battlefield, densely packed with the two sides at war, especially the Mordor Alliance. Not only are there ring spirits circling back and forth on flying beasts above their heads, but also countless huge trolls can be seen faintly. Even behind, the mammoth was faintly exposed.

Only then did Ivanka notice that in the upper right corner of her administrator authority, the number of website registrations has soared from yesterday's hundreds of thousands to 250,000!

Even the dullest person can see the tremendous contribution Duke and the Lord of the Ring have made to the website. This is like 9/11 to blogs.

Duke’s purpose in doing this is also to take advantage of his most popular stage to push the instant sharing website to the forefront and speed up its development slightly, just like he will not stop repeating the way of others and want to receive Like Christopher Rockencourt’s script, he would like to see how far this website can develop. ,

Will it become one of the countless submerged websites, or will it skyrocket just like those used to?

On Monday, Hollywood is not just major companies. Many actors, directors, and producers also responded strongly to the first weekend box office in history with a box office of over 100 million yuan, and some even accepted media interviews.

"I used to compete head-to-head with Duke's work and know what kind of terrifying pressure it is."

Walking out of the DreamWorks headquarters, Tom Cruise was stopped by a reporter. When talking about a good friend recognized by the outside world, he said, "No one wants to face Duke's work in the summer. I can get such results. No surprise, don't you think this is normal?"

Steven Spielberg, who is next to Liangtang, also accepted an interview. The old man said so, "Among the young directors of Hollywood, Duke is the undisputed leader. He has produced one film after another. Outstanding works, the various techniques he used in the fields of action films, science fiction films and magic films are groundbreaking, and he has profoundly influenced Hollywood film production."

At the same time, Duke and crew members have become the target of many TV shows.

"This is an official invitation letter from Oprah's Talk Show."

In the hotel room, Tina Fei put several invitations in front of Duke, "Oprah Winfrey invited you to a talk show for the third time."

Duke nodded, but didn't mean to agree. Instead, he looked at the opposite public relations manager, who was the professional in this area.

Penny Kelly received several invitations, but simply flipped them down, put them back, and directly suggested, "Take them all away."

"Push it all away?" Duke asked.

"Yes, Duke, except for the Oprah talk show, these shows are completely incompatible with your status and status. Participating in such shows will detract from your style."

Hearing these words, Duke thought for a moment and nodded slowly.

Pani Kellys added, "Although "The Two Towers" has a box office of over 100 million in the first weekend, we don’t have to rush to go out for a high-profile show. Box office appeal has never been a problem for your movie, and the movie is excellent , Warner’s announcement does not require us to add this more or less."

"The only thing that is classy is Oprah's talk show."

Speaking of this show, Penny Kelly shook his head directly, "Nearly 90% of the audience of this show are housewives over 35 years old. Maybe others need the support of housewives, but Duke, your the film……"

Duke couldn’t help laughing. His movies were never a housewife’s dish. As early as the early nineties, Nancy Josephson reminded him of this, and he counted on older housewives to support his popular work. Movies are simply not realistic.

No matter how good the movie is, there is no way to kill the whole world. His movie is destined to fail to shine among the housewives.

The fame that the Oprah talk show can bring is completely dispensable. Any show has a target group. For the current Duke, the Oprah talk show is basically a tasteless existence.

As for Oprah? What would Winfrey think? With Duke's current status and status, there is no need to care too much.

"I've got another news." Pani Kellys face suddenly turned serious, "Oprah Winfrey's people went to the Middle East and Northern Europe."

Duke frowned slightly, "What does she want to do?"

"It should be a measure against you on the show." Pani Kellys said, "Even if you refuse to participate, if she can invite the target person, it will create a sensational show."

People who have watched Oprah’s talk show can always see Oprah Winfrey with a generous understanding. After digging out the so-called past events and scars of the guests, they will accompany to tears when necessary. , The hug from her generous body is even more famous.

But why does she always dig out the other side of celebrities? Is her words really magical?

of course not!

As everyone knows, each episode is carefully designed, and before the design, Oprah Winfrey’s company and team will conduct a large number of targeted investigations, such as a celebrity suffering from childhood Father abused, then this father might appear in the show, and then expose the scars of the guests naked, then she jumped out to act as a sympathizer or savior...

Oprah's talk show seems to be a very conscientious show, but like other media, the process of production and preparation of the show is as far as the Pacific and the Atlantic from the word conscience.

Hearing what Penny Kelly said, Duke had guessed what Oprah Winfrey wanted to do.

Although his mother never mentioned it, nor did he investigate it, Du Ke faintly knew that his father seemed to be moving between Northern Europe and the Middle East.

Just how difficult is it for a talk show to invite people who hate publicity and are not short of money?

Duke asked Tina Fei to reject all invitations, including Oprah Winfrey, and threw the matter behind his head. Even if Oprah Winfrey invited his former father, he Don't care, after all, it has been almost 30 years since the other party disappeared.

It would be better if Oprah Winfrey could find him. Duke also wanted to see what the other party looked like after not seeing him in 30 years.

Ending the discussion about TV shows, Duke and the crew embarked on a national publicity tour to continue to build momentum for "The Two Towers". The crew can set off a tornado-like frenzy in every city they traveled, driving the box office and surrounding numbers Keep rising. (To be continued...)
