Chapter 1314: Attend the grand event together
Ripley tried to ignore Lisa, but obviously, it wasn't easy.
Every thirty seconds, Lisa would confirm the situation outside the Angelica Film Center, then turn back and sigh with worry——
Over and over again, seemingly stuck in a time loop.
"Alas."
Lisa sighed deeply again, and she seemed to be able to hear the sound of her shoulders drooping without raising her head.
Ripley finally couldn't ignore it anymore, "Lisa..."
Lisa looked over with worry on her face, and even without Ripley asking, she poured out the bitter water, "Until now, there has been no one, no one came to sign in, and no one came to queue. It's not even a day outside. Hundreds of people, I have never felt that the road and square in front of me have been so empty.”
"Ripley, are we doomed? The last time 'Carrie' was re-screened, the door was busier than it is today."
Ripley looked helpless and laughed dumbly, "Lisa, it's only ten o'clock. Morning."
"I know. But..."
"No buts. It's Thursday, a working day, and people are at work now. You can't expect them to take a day off for a movie they haven't seen."
The re-screening of classic movies like "Carrie" can attract a large number of viewers to queue up even on weekdays. Firstly, because classic works have withstood the test of time; secondly, because re-screenings are often limited, if you miss it, you may be in trouble. Never seen again.
"Nuan Nuan Contains Light" is different. Firstly, it has no reputation, and secondly, it will be released on a small scale tomorrow. Even if the preview screening is limited to 3,000 people, there is no need to rush.
Not to mention Anson, no current top Hollywood star has the ability to make the general public take time off just for a brand new movie under such circumstances.
Lisa's breath was stuck in her throat, "But..."
Ripley herself was also nervous. The situation in front of her was indeed full of unknowns, and she could not give a definite answer. "Lisa, why don't you go check the curtains and speakers, and let the team start the third round of testing. No one hopes that tonight Something went wrong with the show."
As long as you are busy, there will be no time for random thoughts.
Now that the dice have been thrown, all they can do is done, and the rest can only be left to the audience.
Time passes little by little.
In the blink of an eye, it was past twelve o'clock at noon, but there was still no special movement at the entrance of the Angelica Film Center. More than a hundred people were queuing up one after another, but in front of the neat 3,000 seats, there was no one. Just a little rub makes it look particularly pitiful.
The rustling discussions are becoming more and more surging——
Wait, wait! Did Anson's first Waterloo really happen?
Not "elephant", but "warm and warm inner light"?
But after careful analysis, it seems reasonable.
"Elephant" won the Palme d'Or, and coupled with a suitable and correct screening strategy, it was not ambitious. From the beginning, it promoted the pace of screening in a down-to-earth manner. The good reputation spread by word of mouth became the driving force for the film's box office breakthrough
However, "Nuan Nuan contains light" has nothing, only an expectation that seems gorgeous but cannot be realized.
Moreover, it is worth noting that if "Nuan Nuan Inner Light" chooses to screen screenings down to the ground, or even a normal premiere, it will not be in trouble; but now it chooses a trial screening where the gimmick is greater than the content, the whole situation is completely different It's different.
Of course, the so-called Waterloo does not mean that the movie "Warm and Containing Light" may fail; it means that tonight's test screening may expose the water under Anson's superstar halo, allowing people to get a glimpse of the reality——< br>
Anson's rise is so fast that there is almost no time to breathe. Each work and every appearance continues to create shock waves, so that the entire Hollywood is involved in this storm, and it is dizzy and unable to recover.
Now, can you finally calm down?
"Originally, this preview screening was outrageous. What on earth were Angelica Film Center thinking?"
"This event was wrong from the beginning. They wanted to rely on the appeal of Anson, Kate, and Charlie to attract the audience's attention. But the problem is that the independent film market really relies on the appeal of the director. They don't care about the actors. This is a strategic mistake. "The original intention of the Angelica Film Center is good, but now the independent film market is immature and without the bonus of the awards season, it can hardly make any splash."
"To put it simply, Anson is still overestimated."
"Haha, Anson stumbled this time. He really thought he could do anything. The audience is interested in him because of his handsome appearance. Is it because of his good acting skills? It's so funny."
"People just want to see a handsome guy talk about love. He really thinks he is an actor."
Complain, ridicule, attack, ridicule.
Various voices continued, everyone was gloating and waiting to see Anson stumble.
After all, there have not been many such opportunities in the past two years.
Moreover, as time goes by, the disturbing voices become more and more louder, and the crowds of people gather more and more eyes——
The situation at the Angelica Film Center is not getting any better.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, it was still sparse.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the crowd gradually grew...but they were all media.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
It’s hard to believe, but the fact that there are more reporters than viewers… seems to have really happened.
It was so shocking and shocking that the reporters looked at each other in shock.
At the same time, at the Los Angeles Chinese Theater on the West Coast, the premiere of "Dawn of the Dead" is kicking off with great fanfare. Although it cannot compete with the summer season, and Universal Pictures, which has always been stingy, has no plans to spend money on the premiere, the scene is still Easily over two thousand people gathered.
For fans of the original movie, this is the event, and even though it's not Halloween, the monsters and monsters are still popping up around every corner to enjoy their extra holiday.
There is no harm without comparison, and it is rare to see Anson fall victim.
Shock and astonishment slowly spread, and even those voices supporting Anson slowly began to feel uneasy, and the situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable.
Could it be that...Waterloo is really coming?
In the queue, Karen, who had always been confident, had fallen into despair——
Denial, anger, bargaining. After experiencing it all, Karen is now in the stage of depression, her eyes are dull and she is hopeless and refuses to speak.
Originally, Blair was also worried, but seeing Karen looking like this, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Karen, people will show up, they just need some time. Do you think everyone is as free as us? Just made it here this afternoon because there is no class?"
"What's more, this is just a preview screening, there's really no need to make a fuss out of a molehill."
Karen sat upright suddenly, "Look, even you are starting to change your attitude. You said that the preview meeting is not important. That's because subconsciously... He! Blair, what is that?"
< br>
Halfway through her words, Karen suddenly started to make a fuss.
Blair followed Karen's gaze and turned to look——
A wave of people poured out of the subway station, gurgling like a Baotu spring.
