Chapter 143 Conscience
On the second floor of an office near the entrance of Warner Studio, Mene was rubbing his hands nervously. Looking out the window, he could see many reporters and paparazzi blocking the entrance of Warner Studio.
He returned to Los Angeles after filming "Land of the Living Dead" three days ago, and his boss gave him a big gift of appearing in front of the media.
Agent Munir, who is also a black man, came over and said, "Don't be nervous. You often say that big events are trivial to you."
Meine forced out a smile, which was uglier than crying.
Publicity Director Parker asked Martin: "Is his psychological quality not very good?"
Martin said: "He has a very good mental quality, but he has not adjusted for a while. From being unknown to becoming a celebrity in the media, it requires a process of adaptation."
Parker understood this, and many people suddenly became famous, their mentality collapsed, and they fell off the cliff.
Martin said at this time: "Mene, can you? If not, don't force it. I'll replace it with someone else. The kangaroo you beat in Australia is more relaxed than you are now."
Meine came over: "I haven't experienced it before."
Martin pointed at Bruce: "You have memorized the manuscript, what are you afraid of? Do you want Lao Bu to accompany you? Let him support you from behind?"
“No, no need.” Mene shook his head quickly: “Just stay with me, Munir.”
Martin lowered his voice: "Man, think back carefully, those people you have served, your swollen lips and tongue, you are so poor that you have to live with Lao Bu, isn't this the opportunity you have been waiting for?"
Meine pursed her lips and nodded silently.
These are not very effective. Martin frowned and suddenly thought of something: "Are you afraid of those **** in the media? Man, do I have to remind you to remember that you have nuclear weapons!"
Mene looked at the back of his hands and skin color and said, "Yes, I have nuclear weapons."
He raised his head and straightened up: "I have nuclear weapons!"
Except for Bruce, no one else present understood what this meant.
Meine called Munir: "Let's go out and **** the media!"
Munir followed Mene out of Warner Studios.
Just after leaving the security guard post, the flashing lights suddenly exploded and almost blinded people's eyes.
Munir is just a small agent of a small company and has never experienced such a scene. He subconsciously raised his hands to cover his eyes.
The paparazzi reporters swarmed us.
“Are you still in a relationship with Paris?”
“Tell me about your experience in Australia!”
“Why does Paris fall in love with you?”
This question fell on his ears, and Mene almost released a nuclear weapon on the spot, but the nuclear weapon was always at the bottom of the box, so he resisted.
The cowardly broker was so unreliable that he was pushed to the periphery by the paparazzi.
Meine regretted not asking Lao Bu to follow.
It’s good to support him from behind.
Parker, the production director of publicity, had already made arrangements. Several burly security guards from the set rushed out and erected a human wall between Mene and the paparazzi reporters.
Meine took a breath and shouted loudly: "You are so messed up, I can't answer."
The paparazzi reporters present all have experience. After the initial rush, they adjust the order themselves, because if the chaos continues, no one will get news.
It’s getting quiet here gradually.
"You want to know about Paris and me, I can tell you, free of charge, no charge."
Uncle Mene was bold once. When he was in front of the paparazzi media, he found that he was not as nervous as he thought. He said loudly: "This is a mistake that should not have happened, but Paris is young and beautiful, and you all know this."
The male reporters at the scene smiled knowingly.
Very obvious, everyone has seen the tape.
Mene continued: "Paris is so beautiful and sexy, and she threw a thick pile of money at my face." He spread his hands, very helpless: "You think, what can I do? Who in the right mind can refuse? ?”
These guys nodded slowly to show their understanding, and even if they didn’t give money, they would move forward.
"Later I returned the money to her. I'm not that kind of person!" Menei's chest thumped loudly: "I thought love had arrived, but it turned out that love came and went quickly."
A female reporter was dissatisfied and said, "Why did Paris choose you?"
Mene said with a smile: "During filming, Paris flirted with a male kangaroo. Anyway, it was very dangerous at the time. I rushed to seduce... no, I attracted the kangaroo and saved Paris. I thought a hero saves a beauty, love." Advent, it turned out not to be.”
After asking some random questions, some reporters shouted to take pictures, Mene put on a POS and let the reporters take as many pictures as they wanted.
Then he got into the car and left under the **** of security personnel.
Two hours later, Mene returned to Warner Studio and found Martin in the studio’s cafe.
“Boss, I give my performance full marks!” Mene came in and ran across from Martin: “You are so right, those people are not as strong as the Australian kangaroos.”
Martin added: "Let your agent maintain communication with the crew in the future. Susan Levin is a very powerful producer and will supervise more film projects in the future."
Meine nodded frequently: "I understand, I understand, boss, if anything happens to you in the future, just tell me."
Just as he was talking, Louise and Susan Levin entered the coffee shop.
Susan glanced at Mene: "I remember you. The crew played a supporting role and did a good job."
Meine took out his business card and sent it over: "Madam, if you need anything, just call me. I'll be on call."
Susan put it away.
Meine winked: "You guys chat, I have something to do."
Louise pulled out the chair, sat on the side of Martin, and said, "You have so many ideas." Susan sat opposite Louise and laughed: "The feasibility is not bad."
Martin asked the two what they were drinking, and then said: "Susan, it was you who made my idea feasible. Without you, it would just be a fantasy."
Susan kicked Louise: "Did you hear that? You speak so nicely, better than Donnie."
Louise's long brows raised: "Can the person I fancy be wrong?"
Susan finished her cup of coffee and said, "I'm going to work."
Martin and Louise sat for a while.
Louis said: "Come for a walk with me."
The two of them left the cafe and walked along the road with the most palm trees.
Louis asked: "Have you been planning Paris's matter for a long time?"
Of course Martin would not admit it: "Does it need planning? Isn't it normal for her to do this series of things?"
Louise did not pursue the question: "Actually, this film has done well at the box office. The actor's biggest gain is the heroine. You won't get much benefit."
She suddenly thought of a possibility: "Because I participated in the platter? You want to repay me?"
Martin just said: "My advantages are not as great as those of the heroine, but there are still advantages. I played the second role, and the film has a high box office. When other crews use me, at least they will not reject it as a commercial failure."
Louis said: "If the film's box office response is good, it will be like repaying the debt you owe me."
Martin asked deliberately: “Didn’t I pay it off last time?”
Louise, however, said nothing and walked forward with her head held high.
Martin inquired about "Alexander the Great" from elsewhere and it will be released in November.
Pacific Pictures participated in the investment of Platter. Although most of the funds for Platter came from various foundations, if the film failed miserably, he estimated that it would have a great negative impact on Pacific Pictures.
If "Horror House of Wax" is well-received, it should be easier for the drunkard.
Martin didn’t say much and accompanied Louise on the road.
After a while, Louise reminded: "The agent has prepared a promotional article for you, right? If the film succeeds at the box office, you are the leading actor. If it fails, you are just a supporting actor."
Martin said: "I understand."
The promotion of "Horror House of Waxwork" has been steadily advancing, with some newly released films being posted before the screening to warm up the market in advance.
TV and Internet promotional videos have also been released one after another.
Posters, road shows, trailers, various media advertisements and outdoor advertisements, etc., there are many conventional publicity methods.
This film is a remake of an old horror film, and it has some appeal among people over the age of 25.
The Paris publicity plan focused on by the crew is also progressing steadily.
Twenty days before its North American premiere, the distributor Warner Bros. held a screening meeting for theater managers and media.
The former has an estimated market value score of 65, which is at a medium level among traditional American murder horror films.
Warner Bros. easily secured 3,220 North American theaters for the film.
This is considered a relatively high theater opening among R-rated horror films.
At the beginning of October, all aspects of publicity began to work hard, especially Kim Kardashian broke more shocking news. For example, Paris was extremely narcissistic and deliberately called the paparazzi when she went out to have them take pictures.
Also, she went to see a reproductive doctor several times, even hiding it from the people around her, suspecting that she was suffering from some disease because of the blue glue.
Paris's agent Steve also stood up and declared that he was fed up with Paris's various evil behaviors and wanted to resign as his agent.
Gradually, there is a voice on the Internet. Do you want to see Paris Hilton get the punishment she deserves? Go to the theater to watch House of Wax.
Following this was a wax figure poster released by the crew.
A week before the premiere, the crew made a big move.
A female anchor at Warner TV lashed out at the media for pursuing Paris Hilton. She refused to read Paris-related news while hosting the show, and even openly took out a lighter to burn the press release, but was stopped by her colleagues.
She later said in the show: "I will definitely go to see "Horror House of Waxwork" to see how that lawless woman was executed in the movie! This will at least make me feel comfortable for many days."
The next day, Paris’s lawyer sent her a lawyer’s letter.
This matter has been dragged out and stirred up again.
Meine was also invited to appear on a TV show, face the camera, and tell the story of how he and Paris Hilton met through a kangaroo.
Kardashian’s loyalty has spread throughout the United States. Whether she has a good reputation or a bad reputation, she is already famous.
In an interview show, Kardashian announced that she was planning to publish a book, and she had already thought of the title - "What Paris Hilton and I Had to Say."
As long as you find the right promotion and marketing method, there is no need to doubt Hollywood’s execution ability.
Even if they are dead, they can be dragged out and cashed out.
Comparatively, the regular publicity of Martin and Eliza is much less powerful.
But more or less will have an effect.
Martin's blog Thomas has been hosting, updating it two to three times a week.
After the promotional materials related to "Horror House of Waxwork" were posted on the blog, there were at least hundreds of messages saying that they would go to the theater to support it.
