Chapter 482 The busiest season

Behind every war epic movie is a huge investment of hundreds of millions, including the subsequent public relations expenses for the Oscars. The cost of Gladiator is close to 170 million US dollars. Such a huge investment, It also means that there are huge difficulties for movies to achieve profitability at the box office.

War epic movies have always been weak in the sales of peripheral products. Without advertisements, the sponsorship in the early stage was reduced. The dolls and toys in the back are generally R-rated because these movies are generally R-rated, so they definitely cannot directly target children and teenagers. This is the biggest market.

When the North American box office of Gladiator reached 200 million U.S. dollars, the sales of peripheral products still remained at seven figures, which can only be said to be better than nothing.

However, after entering 2001, Jenkins Films started other copyright negotiations, and the big box office sales also had the capital to raise prices.

In the end, the TV copyright of the movie was sold for 25 million US dollars, the five-year DVD and videotape rights were sold for 30 million US dollars, and the sales profit was 20%, which made a total of 55 million US dollars. With a good box office and subsequent other income, it is no longer difficult for the film to achieve profitability.

So, in the future, try to make less of this type of film.

In Los Angeles in January, it was a little cool at night, Ryan was wearing thick pajamas, sitting on a wicker chair on the balcony, Epic films are destined to decline.

When I attended Drew's party a few days ago, I heard that many companies are preparing suitable ancient war film projects after seeing the success of Gladiator.

Charlize Theron next to her hugged a cup of hot cocoa and curled up in a wicker chair, Especially Warner, it is said that they intend to invest 150 million US dollars to re-adapt Homer's Trojan Horse Massacre into a movie.

Okay, honey, we don't have to deal with other companies' affairs. Ryan stretched out his hands to South African diamonds, Let me try. Are you heavy?

I only gained five pounds. Charlize ignored him, pinching her slightly plump face, and said distressedly, I strictly followed the dietitian's plan, but the effect was not too obvious. I should reduce my exercise. At last Sleep after eating.

So. From today on, we'd better sleep in separate rooms. She said helplessly.

This is too cruel. Ryan seemed more helpless, spreading his hands, Don't you think our exercise every night can increase your appetite?

Charlize didn't answer and drank the rest of the hot cocoa. Stand up and walk towards the bedroom, I'm going to rest, together?

Are you going first?

Ryan waved his hand, Honey, you are so attractive to me, I can't help lying together.

Some things are destined to be unchangeable, when getting along. Ryan will try his best to make her feel happy and happy, and beautiful words of love and words of praise are undoubtedly a good way to enhance feelings.

Watching Charlize walk into the room with a bright smile on her face, Ryan unconsciously looked towards the east. A little closer was his former home. It is said that Nicole has returned and is going to Australia to shoot a new movie. Regardless of the follow-up How to develop, the two can only maintain a tacit understanding now. Exist as a passerby.

The farther place he can't see is New York, Harvard has started a new vacation, Natalie has returned to the Big Apple, because they keep in constant contact every week, the Long Island girl is much more cheerful than before, it seems that the original Natalie is coming back.

Walk slowly to the balcony. Ryan leaned on the guardrail, raised his eyes slightly, the dark night sky was dotted with starlight, and he didn't know which one could see Nicole and Natalie. And which one can tell themselves what they are thinking.

A familiar breath came from behind, slender arms hugged his waist, and his soft body was pressed tightly against his back.

Ryan didn't speak, and Charlize was also silent, because there are some things that don't need to be said, as long as a tacit understanding is enough.

After a long time, Ryan turned around and kissed her on the forehead. The South African diamond returned a bright smile. He kissed her forehead all the way, and finally landed on the bright red lips. The four lips were entangled. Together, gently sucking and accepting, gradually turned from tenderness to wildness, and the shallow kiss finally evolved into a French wet kiss.

Charlie, tell me you won't leave me again, will you? Ryan stared into her eyes.

Yes, I won't leave. Charlize said in her heart that only a fool would leave her current position, No matter what happens, I will stay by your side.

After finishing speaking, South African Diamond's eyes flickered, and the opposite was a very smart person. The sooner he talked about his little thoughts, the better.

Holding her slender and soft body horizontally, Ryan walked into the bedroom, put her down gently, and then lay on the side, with their heads touching each other, like naughty children who haven't grown up, talking intimately , Occasionally lightly brushing each other's most sensitive parts, before causing each other to vibrate, they cleverly escaped.

Sometimes, such tenderness is better than the most direct intimacy.

Under Charlize's intentional guidance, the topic of the chat turned to the past, and those little-known pasts came out of her mouth one by one.

Before I was ten years old, I had a happy family, and my parents treated me very well.

Unknowingly, Charlize slipped into Ryan's arms, her bright eyes flashed sadly, It all changed later, my father's career was not going well, he became addicted to alcohol, every time he got drunk, I will treat my mother...

She paused for a moment and bit her lip slowly.

These things were disclosed by the media as early as when Charlize became famous, and Ryan knew it well, he hugged the trembling delicate body in his arms tightly.

Honey, it's over. He kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Ryan, can you listen to me? Charlize suddenly opened his eyes and stared at him seriously, I know these things have been hyped up by the media, but I want to tell you personally, I have to tell you Listen, I don't want any misunderstandings between us in the future.

With a slight nod, Ryan motioned for her to continue.

This situation continued until I was fifteen, and my mother and I endured it until 1991. Charlize closed her eyes again, as if she didn't want to see the other side of the world, the real and cruel side, June 1991 On the 21st of August, I will never forget that day.

Father was drunk, and not only did he violently attack mother again, but after he became mad, he still wanted... and wanted...

After a moment of hesitation, the word finally squeezed out from between her teeth, You still want to rape me! My mother tried her best to protect me and took me to hide in the room. He made a big noise outside the door and finally smashed it open. door, and...then Mom shot him, and he fell in front of me, bleeding.

Although in the end the court ruled that my mother acted in self-defense and was not held accountable, we didn't want to stay in South Africa anymore, so I went to Europe and became a model. She slowly opened her eyes, Then, I found The reality of this world is terrifying, some people can do incredible things in order to get ahead...

No one can hurt you from now on. Ryan kissed his forehead forcefully, I will protect you, Charlie.

Ryan, the setbacks in the modeling industry and ballet school taught me how to survive and made me more realistic. I am not just myself, but I also want to protect my mother. Charlize hesitated and continued, So I……

I understand, Charlie. Ryan held her face in his hands and brought it close to his eyes, But you love me, and you will never do anything against me, right?

Trust me, Charlie, he said again, no one can hurt you again.

Hugging her majestic body tightly, with her face pressed against her fiery chest, Charlize listened to the vigorous and powerful heartbeat. Her past experience made her understand that everything is hard-won now, and how many people can meet the opportunity to reach the peak? arrive?

As for some things, try to ignore them as much as possible. She has officially moved into Jenkins Manor, and with Ryan's character towards people around her, as long as she doesn't take the initiative to leave, he won't drive her away no matter what.

Even... Even if you work harder, you will probably become Mrs. Jenkins.

Perhaps, after filming the movie officially titled The Devil, he can take all the contraceptive measures. Judging from Ryan's love for Taylor Swift, he should like children very much.

Now Ryan naturally can't guess what South African diamonds are thinking, after all, women's minds are always complicated.

Hollywood after the new year is the busiest season of the year. On Hollywood Boulevard, you bump into a guy in a suit and tie. He might be the agent of a big star. Any actor or actor who wants to get something in the award season Singers, all understand the importance of public relations in advance.

And the public relations companies whose business is extremely bleak at other times also ushered in the harvest season of the year. These companies, which are always inseparable from Hollywood bigwigs, can use all kinds of money and guarantees to customers. The means, many of which are infinitely close to the bottom line of the academy.

In fact, many people who are familiar with the operating rules of the Oscars sometimes say in private that 'no award is authentic', 'everything has a price and compensation', 'in order to win, you can pay anything'...

However, no matter how much they say in private, when it is their turn to hope to win the award, their enthusiasm for public relations is no less than that of anyone else. The escalating public relations activities have completely changed the way the film is promoted during the awards season, and it has become even more exciting. Active and effective, it looks like a political campaign.

In this Vanity Fair game, the rules behind it are full of controversy. Movies and characters are never the only criteria. Factors such as luck, popularity, and public relations will all determine the award at the end. (To be continued.
