Heywood automatically filtered his words and asked again. "Do you think this movie is good? How do you feel after watching it?"

"Yeah, it's very satisfying, especially after I fucked a bunch of white guys, which is very pleasant." Schroeder recalled the scene he had just seen, and also imitated the action of the male protagonist's father-in-law with his hands.

"Ok, thank you!"

Heywood turned around and left when he heard the answer. He had already got what he wanted, so there was no need to waste time here.

Schroeder looked at the strange white man and walked out of the theater with his girlfriend in his arms. Their lives had just begun. Midnight in Los Angeles was just the same as noon for a normal person.

On Monday morning, May 17, 1992, the door of Wayne Hotel was knocked at a rapid speed, and Nina, who was confused, opened the door.

"Why is the boss so early? The boss hasn't gotten up yet?" Nina covered her mouth and yawned a big yawn, pointing to the door of her boss.

"Last night, a local TV station in Phoenix recorded the boss and they continued until two o'clock in the night. He was still sleeping. Do you want me to wake him up?"

Jimmy looked anxious, but she kept grinning. "I'm waiting for him in the living room. Is there coffee here?"

After saying that, he ignored Nina, who was obviously not awake, sat on the sofa.

“Coffee, there is.”

Nina walked to the coffee machine and picked him up. She didn't react until Jimmy took it and took a few sips. "Ah! Jimmy, shouldn't you be in Los Angeles? How did you come here so early?"

Jimmy opened her briefcase and yawned, as if she was infected by Nina.

"Come here? Of course! I set off at 2 a.m. and ran over as soon as I got off the plane."

As he was talking, the door of the master bedroom opened with a click, and Wayne walked out in his pajamas with a look of fatigue.

Jimmy selectively ignored the beauty on his client's bed, stood up and grinned and couldn't stop smiling. "Wayne, I have to come over. Warner is going to send you a fax, but I stopped him."

He took out the information from Warner Bros. and handed it to his most important client.

"Wake up, Director Greenberg, today's media will go crazy for you."

He took the printing paper handed over by his agent, glanced at his fatigue and instantly swept away.

Starting Saturday morning, the attendance rate of "Escape from the Deadly Town" screened in 2088 theaters increased significantly, and it achieved a box office of $19.5 million in one day on Saturday.

This is not the most surprising thing. The most surprising thing is that on Sunday, the box office figures actually exceeded Saturday, and they won more than 20 million US dollars across the United States, up to 20.35 million US dollars.

The box office of "Escape from the Dead" reached 49.64 million US dollars in the first week, which is simply a miracle!

This is a bit outrageous. The box office trend does not conform to the market rules at all. Normally, Monday is a weekday, and the box office on Sunday is definitely lower than Saturday.

In the North American theater market, if a newly released film is not adapted from a novel or a sequel to a successful predecessor, Saturday is the highest box office of the newly released film.

Because the Friday is still a working day when the film is released, and Sunday is also a working day the next day, Saturday is the benchmark for measuring the box office of a film.

But obviously "Escape from the Blind Town" did not follow this market rule, and the box office on Sunday actually grew against the trend!

"Ahhh, were you shocked too!" Jimmy was like a child who was eager to make a contribution, and his tone was full of pride. "You created a miracle that is not big or small, Wayne."

Holding his ploppy heartbeat, Wayne sat down and watched these sets of numbers repeatedly. He thought that the box office of the film could not be low, but the film needed to slowly adapt to the market, and the box office would slowly rise.

Unexpectedly, the box office of the film exploded on the first weekend!

"Jimmy, do you have detailed statistics and analysis? Some things I don't understand." Wayne took a few deep breaths, forced himself to calm down, and turned to ask his agent.

“Of course there is.”

Jimmy took out two more pieces of printing paper from his bag and handed it to him.

Wayne knew very well that according to all types of films, his "Escape from the Deadly Town" should be defined as a genre film, although he tried hard to make the films not niche.

But even if such a large-scale R-level film in a broad sense will have a good box office, it will only increase by word of mouth because of the audience's reputation of the film.

Sure enough, he found the answer from the Warner Bros. investigation report.

According to random investigators sent by Warner Bros., most of the surrounding theaters in the African-American community were filled with crowds.

There were actually many gang members who put aside their hatred and walked into the theater together to watch the movies.

This made Wayne himself feel incredible!

"I was also very surprised when I first saw it." Jimmy sat next to him and pointed to the investigation report. "Do you know why those black people go to movies like this? The reason is a bit funny.

It was because at the end of the film that black people killed all the white people, which made them feel very excited. Many people even bought tickets to watch the movies many times in two days."

It's a bit ridiculous, but no matter what it is, as long as the box office is high enough, there is nothing that cannot be done.

"Also, Warner Bros. investigators found that this video had formed a trend in the African-American community. Later, many viewers who entered the theater were ridiculed by their friends because they had seen it because they didn't watch it themselves!"

What else can Wayne say? This is a textbook-style promotion by Warner Bros. They fully considered the glass-hearted nature of that group and used their mentality to get these black people to enter the theater again and again.

"You can actually let Warner Brothers fax it, don't run so far in person." Wayne looked at the agent who couldn't cover his tiredness with joy, and felt that he was overly excited.

"No, I don't think you have time to rest. Warner Brothers has changed your itinerary and I want to accompany you." Jimmy put away the smile on her face and talked about the serious matter.

"What? I don't need to promote it across the United States?"

"Yes, take Harry Berry and go back to Los Angeles with me. Vanity Fair wants to conduct a special interview with you." Jimmy began to get excited again, and waved his arms unconsciously as he spoke.

"Do you know what this means? This means that your fame will become bigger. No one will say that you are a novice director in the future. When they talk about the name Wayne Greenberg, they will have a respectful tone. You are not far from the position of a first-line director in Hollywood!"

Looking at Jimmy, who was getting rid of the more he talked, Wayne calmly interrupted him.

"Hey, hey! Don't think too much about Jimmy. The director's achievements have never been made by the media. We must be sober. I am still far from being a first-line director in Hollywood!"

At this moment, the door was knocked by Dangdang again. After Nina opened the door, she saw Naomi Watts and Will Smith walking in with their agents.

"Hi, Nami, Will, aren't you sleepy so early?" Wayne thought of the yawning when he recorded the show last night.

"Wayne, today is Monday, Monday!" Will Smith excitedly gave him a hug, and then took the newspaper from his agent. "Look, now the whole country is discussing us, who can still sleep?"

I saw the Los Angeles Times in Will Smith's hands with the title in big words: Wayne Greenberg brought the video "Escape from the Deadly Town" to slap the market!!!

"I've got the news." Wayne shrugged and asked everyone to sit down. "I just happened to tell you, I won't go to the next city promotional event. I'm going to rush back to Los Angeles."

"Hey, bro, don't talk about that, don't you want to see how the media reports you?" Will Smith opened the newspaper and read it loudly.

"The director who won the first official feature film, which won the world's box office of over 100 million yuan, Wayne Greenberg and his new film "Escape from the Deadly Town" are coming in full force this week.

This film, which has a bad R-class background, started to open on Friday at the scale of 2,088 theaters. It achieved a box office achievement of US$49.64 million in three days on the first weekend, and directly landed at the top of this week's box office rankings, killing the North American theater market!

Director Wayne Greenberg, the two films he debuted have created terrifying return on investment. This young director with a strong personal style is very good at creating miracles of making big profits with small profits.

The box office of this film "Escape from the Deadly Town" exceeded the production cost ten times the first week. Warner Bros.'s absolute trust in it also created a foreseeable large revenue for itself."

Will Smith frowned and read this, put the newspaper under his armpit, and took the lead in clapping his hands. Everyone in the room clapped Wayne together.

"Brother, congratulations!"

"Hani, congratulations."

"Director Greenberg (Mr.), congratulations on your success!"

When Wayne saw the smiles on the faces of the people around him, he also smiled and raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

"Thank you, Will, Nami." He looked at the young Will Smith, Naomi Watts with collagen on his face. "The success of this video is not only my credit, but all of us work together to make it. So don't just praise me, think about yourself."

"Of course, we all understand that you are the core and leader of this project, Wayne, you deserve these praises!" Will Smith pressed him on the sofa and continued to pick up the newspaper.

"Ok, I haven't finished reading it yet, guys! Let's go on.
Chapter completed!
