Chapter 266
《The success of"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" is inseparable from the popularity of the character Legolas.
According to media statistics, an important reason for the success of"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" around the world is that it attracts female fan groups of different races.
During the opening weekends in various countries, adult men accounted for 48% of the total ticket purchasers, and adult women accounted for 36%. This is the highest proportion of adult female ticket purchasers in history. The remaining 16% are made up of underage movie fans..
This can also be seen from the box office explosion in various countries around the world."The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" is more popular locally than other Hollywood blockbusters, especially among women.
It seemed that suddenly, Martin's"Legolas" replaced Leonardo's"Jack" and became the favorite of women around the world.
The movie is a hit, everyone is running more vigorously to promote it, and the fatigue is replaced by excitement.
…………
On the plane, Martin wore an eye patch and closed his eyes to rest.
Cate Blanchett and Liv Tyler are chattering in my ears.
Orlando is listening to music on headphones.
He has been in a much better mood recently. Perhaps because the movie is so popular, more and more fans are starting to shout his name at the scene, although it is still pitiful compared to the number of fans of"Legolas". But at least I caught up with Liv Tyler.
"Ladies and gentlemen:
The plane is about to land at McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas. The temperature outside is XX degrees Celsius and the plane is taxiing. For the safety of you and others, please do not stand up or open the luggage rack yet. When the plane comes to a complete stop, please unbuckle your seat belt, pack your belongings, and prepare to get off the plane.……"
The promotional team arrived at the desert city of Las Vegas, the largest casino in the world.
This is a city built in the desert
""Las Vegas" comes from Spanish, meaning"fertile green grassland."
As the name suggests, Las Vegas is the only oasis with spring water in the surrounding desolate stone desert and Gobi area.
Because of the spring water, it has gradually become a post station and railway for highways and railways. A transit station.
In 1854, Las Vegas was built by the Mormons who were in the western United States at that time. Later, the Mormons moved away and the American soldiers turned it into a military station, but the population here was still very small.
1905 On May 15, 2015,"Las Vegas" was officially established. After the discovery of gold and silver mines in Nevada, a large number of gold prospectors poured in, and Las Vegas began to prosper. However, like other mining towns in the West, once the mines were Lighting would be abandoned.
Sure enough, as the gold mines were exhausted, the city began to decline.
But the construction of the Hoover Dam made the city prosperous again, and the sufficient supply of water and electricity promoted the city's development. Development.
In 1931, during the Great Depression of the United States, in order to survive the economic difficulties, the Nevada State Assembly passed a bill legalizing gambling. Las Vegas has since become a gambling city and has risen rapidly.
So far, after seventy years of development , this city has become a world-renowned resort city for tourism, shopping, and vacation centered on the gambling industry. It has the reputation of"Entertainment Capital of the World" and"Wedding Capital". Interestingly, white people account for 75% of the city. About %, blacks account for 15%, and Asians account for 10%. Asians are a very small minority, but entering a casino will make people feel that Asians are the majority in this city.
Because most of the dealers in the casino They are all Asians. I don’t know if it’s because Asians are good at math.
Martin and his party stayed at the famous Caesar Palace Hotel in Las Vegas. The bottom floor of the hotel is the casino.
After entering the hotel, everyone put down their luggage and They dispersed in a hurry, and even Orlando, Cate Blanchett and Liv Tyler went to the casino with excitement.
Martin was not interested in gambling and did not join everyone. After packing his luggage, he was ready to go out. Go shopping.
It was already evening.
Martin decided to find a nightclub to sit in.
When he took Gordon out, the car prepared by the hotel was already parked at the gate.
"Sir, where are we going?"The driver asked politely
"Marquee nightclub. Martin said something, then turned to Gordon and said,"Brother, don't be so stern, we are here to have fun, have fun."
Gordon said:"I want to, but I'm afraid you'll cause trouble again!""
"Please, I just want to see the No. 1 nightclub in North America. I won’t cause trouble, okay!!!"
Martin's comfort could not make Gordon relax his vigilance at all.
His boss was too capable of causing trouble.
Half an hour later, the two arrived at their destination.
"Sir, I'm nearby. If you need a car, just call me ten minutes in advance."The driver warned and drove away.
Martin took Gordon to take a look at the long queue at the door of the nightclub. They showed no intention of queuing up and walked directly to the entrance of the nightclub.
At the entrance, there were two giants, one black and one white. The big man was guarding there.
Two beautiful girls at the door were pleading:"Please, please, just let us in.""
One of the girls quickly took out two bills from her bag and stuffed them into the hands of the big white man.
This is a common way to get into the nightclub. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Elsewhere , generally beauties like them will not be stopped by security guards.
Because beauties are the resources of nightclubs. The more beauties there are, the more popular a nightclub will be.
But this is Las Vegas - beauties like In Yun's place, there are excess resources, so they are not taken seriously.
I saw the strong white man looking at the two ten-dollar bills handed over by the girl, and then looking at the cheap clothes and jewelry on the two of them, and sneered in his heart. He slapped the girl's hand away and said in a businesslike tone:
"Just wait, it's full until someone comes out to let you in. The strong black man on the side continued to sneer,"It's only twenty dollars. Who are you looking down on? This is not one of those garbage places.""
As the most famous nightclub in Las Vegas and even all of North America, the security guards at Marquee Nightclub are also"arrogant" and want to bribe them with at least fifty dollars each. The two girls don't look like they are rich. They probably entered the nightclub. Just to catch Kaizi, maybe the twenty dollars is all they have. Sure enough
, after being rejected by the strong white man, the two girls looked embarrassed.
While they were hesitating - suddenly, there was a clear snap of fingers. , rang in the ears of several people.
Then there was a clear and low shout:"Please get out of the way, we are going in!""
"Someone is provoking?!"The strong white man opened his eyes and turned to look.
What he saw was a pair of blue eyes.
(Brothers, please take care of me, please give me some comments, flowers, collections, and rewards. Thank you.).
