Chapter 834 Huge success at the box office on the first day

"Why wasn't he at the premiere of Fast and Furious 5?"

Standing in the VIP lounge of the El Capitan Theater, David Ellison asked an agent sternly, "Don't forget, you have signed a contract with the crew, and attending the premiere is an obligation you must fulfill."

Facing this Hollywood upstart, the agent was neither humble nor overbearing, "Sorry, Mr. Ellison, Dawn is ill and cannot attend the premiere. According to our agreement, if such an accident happens, Dawn is not in breach of contract. "

David Ellison narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were as sharp as knives.

The manager stood straight in front of him, with a faint smile still on his calm face.

When necessary, their group can bow their heads to anyone; when not necessary, they will also be rebellious.

In the eyes of this agent, David Ellison is already an unnecessary person, because he learned from Nancy Josephson that Dwayne Johnson got Duke in a private audition. ? Rosenberg's assistant Anna Prinz recognized that as long as there are no accidents, his client will definitely play an extremely important role in Duke Rosenberg's new work.

Dwayne Johnson found an excuse to refuse to attend the premiere, just to avoid accidents.

Between David Ellison and Duke Rosenberg, it was never an issue for him or Dwayne Johnson.

The full release of "Fast and Furious 5" has brought a certain impact to "The Avengers" that entered the next weekend. After the start of the new weekend, the attendance rate of "The Avengers" has dropped compared with the first weekend. More than half, "Fast and Furious 5", relying on the huge topicality and the fans accumulated in the first four films, ushered in a big explosion on the first day of screening.

Vin Diesel still has a certain reputation in North America, and his death is quite an obvious addition to the film.

The fifth installment of The Fast and the Furious. The plot followed the previous one. O'Connor and Dominique Toletto went into exile in Brazil. A risky action angered the gang boss in Rio de Janeiro and also alarmed the American policeman played by Dwayne Johnson. The highlight of the film is Dom Nick? Toledo has his own team for the first time, and most of the protagonists of the previous departments appear. The scene of the last two sports cars dragging the box and running wildly is absolutely exciting...

In the North American film market on Friday, the just-released "Fast and Furious 5" showed the vigor of a new film, and it overwhelmed "The Avengers", which has been released for a week, and became the number one protagonist in the film market.

Saturday has just arrived, and an extremely beautiful North American box office statistics are placed on David Ellison's desk.

Seeing this data, David Ellison's mood also became very good, he used so many means. Don't you just want to overwhelm Duke Rosenberg? It now appears that the first step has been achieved.

In one day on Friday, "Fast and Furious 5" earned $48.65 million from 3,780 theaters, easily overtaking "The Avengers," which earned $38.77 million from 4,480 theaters, and became the top North American movie of the day. box office champion.

Either gross. It is still a single box office, "Fast and Furious 5" has defeated "The Avengers", and the advantage is quite large.

As for the fact that "Fast and Furious 5" was released in the first week, and "The Avengers" has entered the second weekend. was automatically ignored by David Ellison.

Leaving his desk, he took down a bottle of red wine from the nearby wine rack. David Ellison poured himself a glass, and walked confidently to the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking down at the entire City of Angels through the huge windows.

"Fast and Furious 5" will definitely succeed. To make up for all the losses I suffered on "Tron Legacy" will also make my father Larry Ellison and even people in Hollywood look at him with admiration!

He, David Ellison, is definitely not a waste who can only rely on his family. In the future, he will surely spread his wings and fly high, have his own world in Hollywood, and make achievements beyond Duke Rosenberg!

Looking at his faint reflection on the glass, the corners of David Ellison's mouth curled up unconsciously, revealing an unusually confident smile, and an idea popped into his mind.

"David Ellison, who created the brilliant achievements of "I Am Legend" back then, is back. After the release of another big production "Super Battleship" invested in July, all Hollywood will recognize my leadership in the film industry. powerful!"

A person who has failed too many times always likes to seize a little bit of temporary success, even people like David Ellison are no exception.

David Ellison was still reveling in the great success of "Fast and Furious 5" at the box office on the first day, when there was a knock on the door, and his new assistant, who was most popular with him, walked in.

"Boss, CinemaScore just released their latest stats and forecasts."

CinemaScore has proven its strength in this area countless times. Hearing the assistant's words, David Ellison looked away from the floor-to-ceiling windows, walked over a few steps, put the wine glass on the desk, and took the share. The statistical report, just glanced at it, and the confident expression just now turned gloomy again.

He took a deep breath, went back behind his desk, sat on a chair, and carefully watched the statistical briefing of "Fast and Furious 5" released by CinemaScore.

In this briefing, "Fast and Furious 5" has a CinemaScore rating of 82 percent, with an average rating of 'A'. In terms of movie audiences, men account for the vast majority, more than 100 percent. eighty……

The statistical reputation is quite good, and it can even be listed as first-class among the commercial films in the summer file.

What really annoys David Ellison is not the statistics, but the later predictions. CinemaScore believes that "Fast and Furious 5" has insufficient stamina, and this week's North American box office champion is still "The Avengers"!

David Ellison really wanted to slap the table and ask the forecasting department of CinemaScore if their heads had been hit by pigs. The first-day box office of "Fast and Furious 5" surpassed that of "The Avengers" by nearly 10 million US dollars. How could it not be the box office champion this weekend?

CinemaScore also gave a reason later-the female audience of "Fast and Furious 5" is seriously missing!

But in David Ellison's view, the people at CinemaScore are crazy, isn't it the female audience? What's the big deal, the male audience is enough to support the box office of "Fast and Furious 5"!

Indeed, with the publicity and topicality of "Fast and Furious 5", compared with most films, it will also become a big winner, but in front of films of the level of "Avengers", only male audiences are far away. not enough.

And David Ellison also ignored that the fans of "Fast and Furious 5" are equally serious. The outbreak on Friday has consumed the enthusiasm of a large number of fans and the feelings brought by Vin Diesel.

CinemaScore's investigators have been working on the front line of the theater market, which is an important reason why they can always predict the box office and trends of most films.

Bill Morrison only rested for a few hours and appeared again at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood. CinemaScore has a stable cooperative relationship with several major theater companies, and he easily obtained the relevant statistics in the morning.

This is a completely different statistic from yesterday. "Fast and Furious 5" was as unstoppable as a crazy sports car yesterday. The advantage of easily winning the single-day box office champion.

Today's "Fast and Furious 5" is like the sports car driven by Vin Diesel, which encountered a car accident.

Yesterday was a working day, and today is a rest day. Compared with yesterday morning's data, the attendance rate of "Fast and Furious 5" has dropped sharply today, with a drop of more than 40%. For a movie released in the first week Said, this is definitely not normal.

Unless it's a pure fan movie like the Twilight series!

"Fast and Furious 5" has certain fans, but it is not a pure fan movie!

Sitting in the lounge of the theater, Bill Morrison knew that his speculation was very likely to become a fact, and the lack of too many female audiences would have a very serious impact on "Fast and Furious 5".

For a whole afternoon and one night, Bill Morrison was carefully observing and analyzing the two hottest films on the market, "Fast and Furious 5" and "The Avengers", and when it was close to midnight, He has come to relevant conclusions.

Compared to Friday, the attendance rate of "Fast and Furious 5" has dropped by an absolute 40%, while the attendance rate of "Avengers" is not only stable, but also higher than yesterday.

"A weekend consists of three days. It's very difficult for "Fast and Furious 5" to win the box office champion this weekend!"

After muttering, Bill Morrison left Hollywood's Chinese Theatre, ending his day's work.

The sun was shining brightly on Sunday morning, and it was quite hot in Los Angeles in May. Gal Gadot was dressed beautifully and stylishly. After getting out of the car, she walked towards the coffee shop she had made an appointment with. Regardless of the paparazzi snapping photos of the reporters, she just showed off her short photos to her heart's content. The two super long legs under the skirt.

This is where she is most satisfied with herself, and it is precisely this pair of legs that allowed her to win an extremely important role. It will not take long for her to change her destiny and become a popular star in Hollywood.

Gal Gadot is confident because she's about to star in Duke Rosenberg's film!

For this reason, she specifically rejected "Fast and Furious 5". Gal Gadot saw clearly that since she chose Duke Rosenberg's side, she would stand firmly on that side.

Pushing open the door of the cafe, Gal Gadot waved to the welcoming waiter, and walked directly to a booth in the corner with her satchel. With the advantage of her height and long legs, she had already seen that she asked her to come over Natalie Portman was already sitting in the booth, stirring a cup of coffee absent-mindedly, completely gone from her former high spirits.
