Chapter 072
《One month after”La La Land” was released, the global box office exceeded US$500 million, as the media expected, and went straight to US$600 million.
Hollywood has revived the wave of musical films.
Xu Can’s title of”the most handsome jazz musician in the history of film” and”the most handsome dancer in the history of film” is not for nothing. Movie fans from all over the world have gone to theaters to contribute to the box office.
At the same time, well-known bloggers and Internet celebrities on YouTube and Face began to imitate the tap dance in it, and second-generation videos swarmed in like snowflakes.
It even includes the original male protagonist Ryan Gosling!
He also posted his imitation of Xu Can’s tap dance moves on YouTube, and then in the introduction below, Ryan Gosling said~：
“This dance looks very simple, but it is actually not easy to perform completely. It is said that Xu Can has no dance experience before. I really don’t know how he did it.-”
“I like this movie very much. Thank you Xu for bringing us a perfect work. I look forward to having the opportunity to work with him.”
A large number of second-generation videos have brought a lot of traffic to”La La Land”.
One month after its release, the box office has actually reversed the decline, and it is certain to exceed 600 million.
Compared with the original 4, Xu Can has more box office 200 million is not surprising, but with the inflation factor, the box office created by Xu Can is already a miracle.
For Sony, it is both painful and happy.
On the one hand, they can take advantage of Xu Can’s high popularity and reputation, Stimulating the box office performance of”Spider-Man 2″.
On the other hand, they are also heartbroken, why was this movie not produced by them?
Xu Can was originally a treasure actor discovered by Sony, and now he has gradually grown into a terrifying force in Hollywood..
Sony even suspects that if Xu Can is given a few more years, he might become another giant.
Now Disney, Paramount, Fox and other traditional giants have been suppressed by Xu Can.
Whenever Xu Can’s movie is scheduled, They didn’t dare to fight head-on, and they wanted to change their positions immediately and postpone the release.
Originally, at the end of July, there were blockbusters such as”Hancock”,”The Mummy 3″,”The Crucial Vote”,”Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D”, etc., but”The Mummy 3″ and”Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D””Journey to the Center of the Earth” announced that its withdrawal has been postponed.
《”The Mummy 3″ postponed to October, the box office harvest can still make up for it
《”Journey to the Center of the Earth” simply didn’t have a chance to be released, and it was put off until later.
The only one that dares to compete head-on with”Spider-Man 2″ is Pixar’s animation,”Wall-E”, which has been polished for many years.》
《Wall-E director Andrew Stanton said in an interview:
“This animation has cost us a lot of effort and invested 180 million. I believe it can still compete with”Spider-Man 2″”
“There’s no guarantee of box office success, but the quality is definitely much better than superhero movies.”
The financial backer behind Pixar, Disney CEO Bob Iger, is also supporting”Wall-E”》
“Nowadays, superhero movies are becoming more and more popular. Apart from flashy fighting scenes, what depth can they have?”
“Our animation contains a lot of thinking and is both educational and entertaining. I believe that it will never lose to the guys in tights in terms of reputation.”
Bob Igor is a more traditional”red neck” at heart, and his behavior and words will be more radical.
Xu Can repeatedly pressed Disney to the ground and rubbed him.
Bob Iger was simply a little incompetent and furious.
《”Wall-E” is an excellent work, and he is confident that it can surpass”Spider-Man” in terms of reputation, otherwise he would not have started the show at this time.
He hopes that through this method, he hopes that society will despise superhero movies and that public opinion will be on his side and boycott Xu Can’s movies.
These words may still have some effect 15 years later.
The comprehensive separation between Marvel and DC has made the market very disgusted with superhero movies.
But now the parallel world is in the”honeymoon period” of superhero movies!
Before Xu Can could respond, fans took the lead in criticizing Bob Igor online.
“Is it possible that we watch movies just to have fun? What to think about?”
“《”Spider-Man” has great abilities, but also great responsibilities. It’s not a brainless movie, right? They also discussed some social crime issues”
“I just went for Xu Can. Do you think you can stop me from reading it with just two sentences?”
“There is no doubt about Xu Can’s movies, but how can you get more confidence than word of mouth?”
“Dignified CEO, the layout is too small.”
Faced with such a turmoil of public opinion, the Hollywood media is known to like to stir up trouble. They are like sharks smelling blood, and they have joined in to make the matter bigger.
Bob Iger has been rendered by the media as”Disney President Bombardment” superhero movies”、”Disney declares war on Galaxy Entertainment”、”Disney CEO openly discriminates against characters who wear tights”……
As expected, the media found Xu Can again and wanted to see his reaction.
Xu Can is really too lazy to deal with these guys. He has been very tired from his recent incarnation as a time management master in Los Santos.
After dealing with Sister Shitou, I have to pretend to be energetic to accompany Swift.
Although he doesn’t drink water and soak wolfberry in it, Xu Can still has to exercise after work to stay in shape.
If you participate in the media, you will lose, and you will send traffic to others for no reason.
So Xu Can just replied lightly:
“《”Wall-E” is a good animation. I think”Spider-Man” and”Wall-E” should not be rivals. You can watch both movies together.”
“Hollywood can thrive more precisely because of the let-a-hundred-flowers-blooming genre.”
“I just won the box office championship a few times, it’s nothing worth showing off.”
“I hope to produce better works than before and contribute more charming characters than before.……”
Once Xu Can’s interview was announced, the entire Hollywood industry was moved.
He doesn’t seem to be taking on the challenge head-on, but in fact his overall status is infinitely higher than that of a Disney CEO.
Bob Iger is still counting on the box office of one or two movies, but Xu Can is already looking at the whole of Hollywood!
The dignified CEO of a tycoon actually competed with a Chinese who was just starting out.
A discerning person can tell which one is higher and which one is lower at a glance.
What’s more, Xu Can is also a bit like Bob Igor. He has won several box office championships, almost all of which were won by Disney.
Pirates of the Caribbean, which they had high hopes for, always falls short of Xu Can’s work.
This time there is no need to even compare the results. In the eyes of North American netizens, Bob Igor has become a clown in all aspects.
Under such public opinion,”Wall-E” was released first.
As an animated film with an investment of 180 million,”Wall-E” has a box office of 62.5 million US dollars in its first weekend, which is already very good.
But compared to Xu Can’s box office, which can easily reach hundreds of millions, the face of Disney executives is a bit ugly.
Fortunately,”WALL-E” has a strong reputation, with a Rotten Tomatoes score of 99% and an imdb score of 9.1/10!
This reputation is due to the stable performance of Pixar Studio, and Bob Iger finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the reputation of the next”Spider-Man 2″ is lower than that of”Wall-E”, he will still have something to say
“I don’t believe it. How can a superhero movie score more than 9 points?”
Bob Igor roared angrily.
As a result, his secretary weakly interjected:”Well,”The Dark Knight” is still 9.4, ranking second on imdb.”
Bob Igor was so angry that he almost couldn’t breathe.
As fo
r Xu Can, he was very happy.
《”WALL-E” is a movie that he liked very much in his previous life. Unfortunately, it was not introduced to the mainland market in his previous life, and Xu Can did not have the opportunity to watch it on the big screen.
The reason was quite helpless. The distributor was worried that there was not a single line in the first 40 minutes of the film, which would not suit the audience’s taste, so they gave up on introducing it.
Xu Can could only watch it on a computer, and later purchased the original Blu-ray disc.
Speaking of which, Pixar’s”Toy Story” series,”Wall-E”,”Up”,”Coco”, and”Soul” are quite outstanding works.
Unfortunately, as time goes on, the meaning of Hollywood zzzq has become stronger. Coupled with many factors such as the writers’ strike and the resignation of senior veterans, it seems that Pixar will never be able to return to the original studio that only told stories.
In order to make up for past regrets, Xu Can took Swift to the theater to watch the movie.
Throughout the whole process, Swift was moved by the pure love between wallE and Eva.
At the end, the emotional Taylor Swift really cried, tears streaming down her cheeks, which really made me pity her.
Xu Can had expected it and had prepared tissues.?
“My dear, this feeling is really beautiful. I want to be like them too……”
“Um? Do you think we are not good enough now?”
Xu Can feigned anger.
Swift laughed again.
“No, we are doing well now and I am very happy.”
She looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so she quickly pecked Xu Can on the face.
“anything else?”
Xu Can turned the other side of his face to the side again.
“Okay, okay.”Taylor Swift had no choice but to stamp the other side of his face.
“Is this the end?”
“Don’t worry, it’s up to you when you get back.” (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
“This is what you said……��
“YouDirtyBoy”
Swift usually looks outspoken and like a silly girl, but in some aspects she is a bit conservative and is always shy.
Xu Can’s development work has a long way to go
……
The next day, the same theater, the same seats, the same”Wall-E”, the same Xu Can.
But next to him has turned into Emma Stone
“Emmmm, as expected of Pixar, what a great story.”
Emma seemed much calmer and not as emotional as Swift.
She also talked a lot with Xu Can about animation production, story structure, etc.
If life is put aside, Sister Shitou is definitely a career fanatic in terms of work, otherwise In her previous life, she would not have climbed all the way from a walk-on player to an Oscar-winning actress.
She broke up with Andrew Garfield not because of their emotional discord.
0 Asking for flowers 0
But because of her career
《The performance of”The Amazing Spider-Man 2″ was not satisfactory, the film project was canceled, and Garfield’s career was severely damaged.
On the other hand, Sister Shitou has received many film contracts before, so her acting career is gradually broadening and her career is booming.
At this time, the fragile Garfield needs Sister Shitong’s company, her encouragement and support.
It’s a pity that Sister Shitou is busy filming and can’t take care of Garfield at all.
As a result, the two gradually drifted apart until they broke up.[]
Later, when she appeared in”La La Land”, Sister Shitou felt the same way.
In the parallel world, everything becomes different.
Xu Can’s career is soaring like a rocket. He doesn’t need Sister Shitou’s encouragement at all. Instead, he is Sister Shitou’s harbor and can help her create more opportunities.
When career and emotions do not conflict, their relationship will naturally be very stable.
Unless something goes wrong with Xu Can’s colorful flags outside.
With Xu Can’s caution, there will basically be no problems
“Xu, can I treat you to a movie?”
“what movie?”
“《”WALL-E””
On the third day, Emma Roberts also called to invite.
No, no matter how good a movie is, you will still vomit after watching it continuously. Xu Can didn’t intend to push Emma this time, and was just about to refuse.
Unexpectedly, Ai Ma Roberts’ tone became very low.
“Okay, I know, you must have watched it with Taylor or Miss Stone…I am not you or anyone else, and I really have no right to invite you to watch it.”
“Wait, I haven’t watched it yet, let’s watch it together.”
There is no other way. Xu Can is soft-hearted and doesn’t want to see the little girl cry.
Anyway, he has been relatively free these two days, so he feels relaxed when he comes out.
“Great! you are the best!”
That night, Xu Can and Emma Roberts, who was all dressed up and covered up, watched”WALL-E” for the third time.
Counting the previous viewings, they had watched it at least six or seven times, and Xu Can almost memorized it.
After the screening, the two went to a seafood restaurant to have a good meal, and Xu Can sent her back to his small two-story villa.
“Are you thirsty? Come up and let me make you some tea?”
In the passenger seat, Emma Roberts’s eyes are already drawn.
There is no way, the special effects of the male protagonist of”Love and Elixir” are a bit too outrageous.
If her favorability rate is 80% in the early stage, Xu Can has deliberately treated her coldly recently , the favorability can still soar to 99%, it is really unexplainable, it is a passive skill.
Today Emma Roberts wore an off-shoulder dress, and her fair skin is indeed full of charm.
Xu Can’s throat is really a bit dry.
Emma Roberts But she saw that Xu Can was getting closer and closer to her without saying a word, and their lips were almost touching.
When had the little girl ever seen such a scene? Her heart was so full that she almost died.
Her cheeks were inevitably red.
“Can’t be here……”
“What?”
“Eh?”
Emma Roberts suddenly realized that her seat belt was loose. It turned out that Xu Can came over just now to help her unbuckle her seat belt?
“I’ll come back for tea next time. I have something to do later. You go up and have a rest early.”
“Okay, let’s go out and play next time.”
Emma Roberts felt empty in her heart. She turned around and walked in the door.
Xu Can breathed a sigh of relief. He was almost impulsive just now, but luckily he calmed down at the critical moment.
According to Emma Roberts’ temperament, all he had to do was to be with her. She is closer, and she wants to announce to the world that her boyfriend is Xu Can.
Then everything will be in chaos, and Swifty and Sister Shitou will have to explode.
Xu Can will completely stabilize Swift, otherwise he will have to stop for the time being. , the future is long.
Unless the other party doesn’t like to keep it public, Xu Can has a chance to succeed, such as Anne Hathaway. Neither of them knows the story between themselves and Anne, and everything is under control.
……
Finally, two weeks after its release,”Wall-E” grossed more than $300 million at the box office.
Disney can no longer sit still, a major opponent has arrived!
“Spider-Man 2”, which fans around the world have been waiting for for a year and a half, officially premieres in the summer!
The creative team attended the premiere. Needless to say, Xu Can and Emma were the most eye-catching couple on the red carpet.
Xu Can was already used to being blinded by flash lights at this time.
Countless excited fans donned Spider-Man suits and showed up at the premiere.
It’s almost like Spider-Man’s multiple shadow clones. Thousands of Spider-Man from multiple universes are all gathered here. The scene is quite spectacular.
“I’m so excited!!”
“finally come!!”
Xu Can’s loyal fans, the foursome of Leonard and Sheldon from California Institute of Technology, appeared at the premiere.
They all wore Spider-Man masks, and their hands were numb with excitement!
“I’m worried, what if the reputation of the sequel cannot catch up with its predecessor? Howard said suddenly
“Do not worry. Sheldon was full of confidence,”Xu Can’s movies have no reputation decline.””
The theater suddenly turned dark!
《Spider-Man 2 is here!.
