In the next few days, as word of mouth brewed, Blair the Witch 2: The Book of Shadows continued to decline.The box office results of only more than 10 million in the second week made many theaters that were originally waiting to see give up the screening of the movie.And this approach, as a result, made the box office of Witch 2, which was not ideal, once again show a sharp downward trend, directly cutting nearly half of the box office.The owner of the cinema chain would rather make less money, but he will never do a loss-making business.Obviously, there has been a consensus in the market that the box office of Witch 2 is bad, and in this case, they are naturally unwilling to continue to invest in this movie.Next, the ending of Witch 2 can be expected.As a sequel to Hollywood's loss, Universal, as the filmmaker, will inevitably usher in a change within it.After all, in terms of production costs, Witch 2 continues the style of the previous work and is not high, but if you add the early copyright purchase costs and subsequent publicity, then Witch 2 can at least be called an investment in a medium movie, such an investment loss.No matter who you put on it, it's enough to hurt for a while.Of course, the box office failure of Blair the Witch 2: Book of Shadows is something that Universal only needs to think about.For Zhao Yuan, after the copyright of the movie is sold, it has little to do with him.The vast majority of media and film critics are also aimed at screenwriters and directors.Even the occasional mention of his name is only a condemnation of his failure as a producer.To be honest, the longer he stays in Hollywood, the more irrelevant this kind of remarks become to Zhao Yuan.Los Angeles, Beverly Hills.A lively party is taking place."
It's coming, it's coming, who is it this time?"
In Beverly Hills, the reporters who received the news gathered together, looked at the luxury cars driving into the villa, and hurriedly picked up the camera in their hands and took pictures.Click, click!
With a sharp shutter sound, the luxury car drove all the way into Beverly Hills.If they could, these reporters who were guarding outside would naturally hope to follow the owner of the luxury car into the villa and take more useful photos.It's just that, after making eye contact with the patrol security guards around the villa, looking at their complete equipment and strong muscles, several emaciated reporters had to swallow their saliva and give up this unrealistic idea and watch the results of this shooting instead."
Who's it?""
It's a little blurry" "Damn the driver, he's blocking my shot." ”"Haha, I photographed it, it's Tom Cruise, I didn't expect him to come to Alan Zhao's party."
Hearing that a reporter had taken a key photo, several reporters who had returned in vain couldn't help but pout, with expressions of some unwillingness."
Speaking of which, isn't it just a simple party, why are so many Hollywood superstars coming to Beverly Hills, is Alan Zhao really so attractive?"
Speaking of this, there was a hint of jealousy in the tone of the reporter who opened his mouth without even noticing it.After all, the current situation is simply unbalanced to the extreme.Some people are able to spend a lot of money in Beverly Hills, enjoying the party food and the beautiful women, while they can only huddle under Beverly Hills, fighting to the death to get a picture of the partygoers.Of course, if there are no changes in future elections.Perhaps, a certain president will use his own answer to give a reporter's answer."
Because, that's life."
Of course, at the moment, there is no wise quote from the great president to wake up these reporters.However, there are still sober reporters who said: "If you have Alan Zhao's box office appeal, Hollywood will also flock to you, he is currently the most profitable director in Hollywood, and it is said that Warner has released words and intends to invite the other party to form a Justice League universe belonging to Warner." ”Warner's invitation to Zhao Yuan to take over the Green Lantern movie, although it did not get an accurate reply from him.However, this did not prevent Warners from using it to build momentum for the new film.After all, it's just an intention, and in Hollywood, this method of hype through upfront invitations has been around for a long time.Even if Zhao Yuan refuses this invitation in the end, Warner will not lose anything.Of course, from Warner's point of view, they are actually quite willing to facilitate this cooperation.Nolan has made it clear that Batman 3 will be the final work in the series, and after losing Nolan's call, in the face of the menacing Marvel, Warner is desperate to have a new chess player to form Warner's own superhero movie.At the box office, Zhao Yuan has proven his ability.At the same time, he has also been involved in superhero themes.The combination of the two undoubtedly makes it one of the favorite candidates in the Warner Justice League universe.It's a pity that compared to the enthusiastic offensive that Warner has been showing, Zhao Yuan, as the invitee, has always shown a cold attitude.Doesn't seem too interested in the Justice League project in Warner's hands.If Zhao Yuan knew what Warners was thinking, he would definitely tell them.He is not completely devoid of ideas about the Justice League, and it is a pity that there is a huge problem in the project to form the Justice League Cinematic Universe that hinders the film itself.That's Warner himself.Don't look at the invitation now, Warner's eagerness to find talent, but once the film starts shooting, Warner's interference with the film itself will be immediately apparent.For Zhao Yuan, he made movies in Hollywood in order to enjoy life.Instead of trying to make yourself unhappy, instead of participating in Warner's film projects, it is better to continue to shoot simple and easy-to-earn pseudo-documentaries to feel comfortable.In addition, the main thing is:He was really not interested in the Green Lantern movie."
Congratulations, Zhao."
Beverly Hills, party-on.Ron Meyer held his wine glass and congratulated the party host, Zhao Yuan."
Thank you."
With a light touch of his wine glass, Ron Meyer turned his head to look at the wide courtyard of Zhao Yuan's new home and the lively pool party not far away, even as the vice president of the world, he couldn't help but have a trace of envy in his eyes.Beverly Hills in Hollywood is a symbol of wealth.Although he is the vice president of Universal, this does not mean that he has enough wealth to live here.After all, the price of tens of millions at every turn, even for Hollywood executives, is not money that can be easily taken out.
