Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 692 I have few friends

? The premiere date of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was finally set in mid-May, after Memorial Day in North America.

Although Charlotte made a lot of adjustments to the film's special effects scenes and music after the preview, it was still completed in time after redeploying a lot of people from the "Lord of the Rings 1" crew.

——The delays that Disney Pictures Chairman Robert Iger was most worried about did not happen.

In fact, by now, Robert Iger is no longer worried about "Pirates of the Caribbean".

On the one hand, the deal is done. Regardless of success or failure, they have done what they should do, and the only thing left is to pray;

On the other hand, the pre-sale results of "Pirates of the Caribbean" are still very good——

Thirty-two million!

——As an original movie that is not a sequel, and there are no big-name stars except Johnny Depp, this kind of pre-sales performance is already quite exaggerated.

Of course, this may not be comparable to the pre-sales results of sequels of super big IP movies such as "Star Wars", but it is still quite good.

This achievement is, on the one hand, a reflection of Charlotte's box office appeal as a director, and on the other hand, it is also the result of Disney's publicity.

——With this low pre-sale box office, Robert Iger feels that even if the box office performance of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is not ideal, it will not be much worse.

Therefore, now, Iger's mentality is relatively relaxed.

In contrast, it is Disney President Michael Eisner who has a rather complicated mentality towards "Pirates of the Caribbean".

As the head of Disney, he not only hopes that his company's flagship movies will be successful, but also feels that once the movie succeeds at the box office, it will prove that he has a poor eye for movies.

"If I had known this, I shouldn't have allowed Iger to use this matter for publicity!"

Disney's "tyrant" secretly regretted it.

In short, no matter whether the people involved are looking forward to it or worrying about it, the premiere date of "Pirates of the Caribbean" has arrived unstoppably.

On this day, movie theaters across North America are transformed into ports from "Pirates of the Caribbean" - this kind of thing where the decoration of the movie theater is consistent with the style of the current main movie.

It is a very common publicity method.

Unsurprisingly, long queues formed in front of these cinemas again.

“I didn’t expect there would be so many people!”

Penny sighed, suddenly feeling that she had made a mistake by agreeing to accompany Leonard to the premiere.

“There are so many people, we don’t know when it will be our turn!”

"It shouldn't take too long!"

Leonard was also a little unsure,

"However, if you look at the trailer, this movie will definitely be great! Let's just wait!"

"All right!"

Penny nodded,

"Sally's husband's movie should be as good as ever!"

Penny comforted herself in her heart.

As a friend that Charlize made before she became famous, Penny actually received a lot of care——

Charlize has introduced several crew members to Penny specifically, and they all play relatively important roles.

However, after Penny finished her performance, the response she received was always tepid.

Sometimes, even if her performance is not bad, the audience cannot remember her in the end.

——In this world, there is a kind of person who obviously has good resources and congenital conditions, and he works hard, but he just can't become popular.

——Penny thinks she is that kind of person.

So, now, Penny no longer asks Charlize for help and asks her to introduce characters for herself.

She even gave up her dream of becoming a star and started a down-to-earth job selling drugs.

This actually made her a lot of money.

However, she did not cut off contact with Charlize.

It's because the industries they are in are different and there is no direct interest connection, the friendship between the two is more pure.

At least, in the past, Penny was unwilling to watch the movie starring Charlize in person because of the entanglement in her heart. Now this problem no longer exists.

Penny also knew the movies of Charlize's husband, the great director Charlotte Booth.

In fact, Penny has become a fan of Charlotte.

She once begged Charlize to take her and Leonard to visit the set of Charlotte's movie.

Although Penny and the others did not talk directly to the great director in order not to disturb each other's work, afterward, Charlize helped Penny get Charlotte Booth's autograph.

——You know, unlike celebrities, Charlotte, as a director, is essentially a behind-the-scenes worker, so he doesn’t have many opportunities to sign autographs for fans.

——It’s something to be proud of to get his signature.

Unfortunately, this time for the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean", Penny had work to do, so she gave away the premiere tickets given by Charlize.

As a result, her work schedule was canceled and her boyfriend Leonard invited her to watch a movie, so she came.

——But what I saw was a long queue...

*********

In comparison, the situation on Emily and Gianna's side is much better——

Since they have not yet graduated from Stanford, the two beautiful girls have relatively plenty of time.

At least there's still time to come early and queue up for the movie premiere.

Although there is no escort, two young and beautiful girls go to watch a midnight movie together, which is a bit dangerous in a city like Los Angeles.

But on the one hand, Emily’s fighting ability is indeed fierce;

On the other hand, the two drove directly here this time.

——To celebrate Emily’s internship at PricewaterhouseCoopers, a well-known firm, Emily’s father gave her a second-hand Beetle that looked very good.

The bright yellow car body is very suitable for girls, and there is also a cute wasp decoration hanging in the car.

Emily drives this car everywhere she goes lately.

——With car transportation, many dangerous places can be avoided directly.

Anyway, that's what Jaina thinks.

What's more, she also has a hidden method——

She can instantly confuse an adult male and make him fall into sleep.

Although it only happens once in seven days, it is enough at the critical moment.

——This is the ability that Jaina gained from the main god space after experiencing several crises after becoming a reincarnation.

There are many magical abilities in that space, but only a handful can be brought back to reality.

But even so, Jaina still felt like she had become a superhero.

——Every American teenager has a superhero dream hidden in his heart!

However, due to the Lord God's confidentiality restrictions, Jaina has never been able to tell Emily about this matter.

However, she was still very confident that she could protect Emily at the critical moment.

——Although the two always like to quarrel, it is always the tough Emily who protects her who likes to cause trouble...
