In just over half a month, the box office of "Titanic" has reached a point that many movies cannot hope to achieve, and the momentum has not weakened in the slightest, telling everyone that it will continue to occupy the top of the North American box office charts!
There is no exact and credible figure at the global box office, but it is estimated to be 2 to 3 times that of the North American box office. Anyway, it is said that several executives of 20th Century Fox have cried because of this - the authenticity of this news is impossible to identify, but it can be What is certain is that the film companies that negotiated the North American screening rights with Fox were somewhat depressed. How could Angela be so sure that this movie would be a big buy? This is what many people want to know.
"Probably because of Cameron's obsession with perfection, I want to help him." Angela shrugged, seeing the expressions of distrust around everyone, she just continued: "Okay, that's good. The script, the top-notch soundtrack, and the realistic shipwreck are all worth investing in, so what's the reason for that?"
"It's still not convincing," everyone shook their heads. "The film company is willing to pay, that's because they're a company. We really can't think of a sufficient reason for you to buy the screening rights as an individual."
"Then feel free to think what you want. For example, God told me that "Titanic" would sell well!" The girl waved her hand angrily, "Do you know why I always don't answer when reporters ask me? Because they Just like you, no matter what reason I give, I don't think it's convincing!"
"But at least we won't use our imaginations on this basis." Jim Ford's voice rang out, "We're just curious, knowing that you have never lost any investment in Titanic. ."
"That's true," someone immediately picked up the conversation, "Every time Angela's investment seems to be losing money, but the end result is surprising, maybe you can give us some pointers?"
"Wait, wait, who told you that my investment must be successful?" the girl hurriedly shouted, "Among my dozens of investments, there are many losses, don't just focus on the profitable ones?"
But Jim's goddamn voice rang again: "The rest we don't know, but the three investments you made the decision: Pixar, Blair Witch, and now Titanic, and the results were pretty surprising. ."
Angela glared at him, but the guy was still hippy and fearless. The girl just sighed and said, "Okay, if you want to hear something, then buy some Apple stock. Because Steve Jobs is coming back to Apple soon. Yes, I know it can't be. What does it mean, so I'm just talking about it, it's up to you to believe it or not! Well, say what you need to say, let me move! It's time to work!"
"Yes, boss, we'll start right away." The people in the room giggled, and then went to work. This is the studio leased from Disney, where post-production of "Lola Run" takes place. Angela's first job after the holiday is to continue to supervise the production of the film, which is nearing the end, so it can't be sloppy.
Angela doesn't want to be as strict as Cameron on every detail, like a perverted check, that will only make the production cycle of the movie longer and increase the production cost. The miracle of "Titanic" will only happen once. .
But now she has to keep all the processes in her hands, so that even if she fails, she can't put the cause on others, and she can also figure out why. Fortunately, the post-production has been going smoothly all the time. The staff basically obeyed her and tried to do the work according to the girl's request. Matthew also used his own experience as a reference for Angela's command, and Jim liked this The whimsical guy also helped a lot with the editing.
Jim is here because of Angela's special care for the film club. From the beginning of filming "Lola Run", she allowed several key members to take turns to the studio to observe their positions in the club. And learning, anyway, I occasionally took them around the studio before. Because Jim was editing, he could only bubble in the post-production studio after the shooting. During the period, Angela was dissatisfied with the shot several times, but now she can't retake it, so she has high requirements for editing, but the editor Stella always makes the girl feel wrong, until she observes Jim and mentions a few A good suggestion, this made the girl nod her head, and Stella couldn't help but praise him for his agility.
"According to the current progress, it should be basically completed by the end of the month." Angela sighed to Matthew as she walked out. "It took almost half a year. It's really not easy."
"this is yours
The first work, it should take some time. ' Matthew replied sympathetically.
"Thank you," the girl smiled, "if this movie is a big hit, I'll give everyone a bonus, I promise!"
As soon as they got out of the gate, the reporters who were waiting outside gathered around, holding up various recording equipment and asking questions impatiently, hoping to hear valuable answers. But not waiting for them to come around, Guan Shui and Bucket skillfully separated them from left to right, protecting the girl towards the car.
"It will be the end of January in another week, and they are still chasing so enthusiastically." Angela, who sat in the car, muttered while looking at the reporters who were constantly taking pictures around the car.
"That's because even though the momentum of 'Titanic' has begun to decline, it can still occupy the top spot in the North American box office, and it occupies 15 places on the latest Oscar nomination list!" Guan Shui exclaimed, "The newspapers said It set an unprecedented record, winning or not, it has surpassed "The Comet Beauty" as the most nominated film in Oscar history! You have four nominations for "Titanic" alone, which has already broken Kevin Jane Sterner's record for a single Oscar, if I were a reporter, I would definitely follow you."
The girl curled her lips. Of course she knew that she didn't want to be clean before the 69th Academy Awards. Guanshui was actually just talking about it. Some things were not involved. Island Cry was also nominated for Best Original Screenplay and was also nominated for Best Score for "Titanic" and "Breakthrough"!
Look, this is the storm caused by butterflies. "Cry on a Island", which had nothing to do with the Oscars, now has two nominations. In addition to the best original screenplay I mentioned just now, there is also the best actress— Nicole almost went crazy with joy on the phone call to her, and she bluntly expressed her gratitude to the girl for her creation in front of reporters!
Similarly, "Brave to the Dead Island" was nominated for the best soundtrack because Hans made a better soundtrack after incorporating her music. Although there was only one such thing, it also changed the fact that it had nothing to do with the Oscars. It's just that Angela is in fourth place, unlike "Titanic" where she has only one name, so it's a bit awkward to be in a ring with yourself!
As for the other two nominations, one of them, needless to say, is best original song, "My Heart Will Go On" is still at the top of Billboard's chart; design!
Angela drew some of the costumes she remembered as early as when she was writing the script for Cameron, such as the white striped suit that Ruth first appeared in, and the red lace-trimmed low-cut dress when she met Jack, or the captain of the old captain. wait. When visiting the studio in Rosarito, Ms. Lynn, who was in charge of costumes, had also communicated with her in this regard, so in the film company, in order to promote it with the greatest strength, she hoped to write her name in the column of costume design. There was no objection, but she forgot that "Titanic" had a nomination for best costume, so she personally had four nominations at the 69th Academy Awards!
So the reporters are crazy. Think about what Miss Talent has done. As early as the 67th Academy Awards, she has already tied Kevin Costner's record for the most nominations in a single session and the most awards in a single session, and at the same time because three songs Nominated for Best Original Music for the song, and Best Supporting Actress for "The Sixth Sense" and "Piano Lesson"!
That's not to mention that she invested in Pixar, fiddled with "Blair Witch" and bought the North American screening rights of "Titanic"! God! She's only 16 years old, she's still a girl! What girl had such grades when she was 16? Then if you are an adult, you can't take all the awards in the world into your arms
In short, at this moment everyone - yes, not just journalists - wants to dissect the girl from the end! That's why Angela will have a clear understanding that couldn't be purified before Oscar.
However, although the girl's wings are very strong, it has given "Titanic" more nominations for the best screenwriter, reaching a record of 15 nominations that have never been seen before or have never come before, but still failed to fan Leonardo into the best actor list. Knowing that he is still young and energetic, will he also refuse to attend the 69th Academy Awards
Hey, what does he think about, it's none of his business whether he goes or not. Angela waved her hand: "Fortunately, all the members of the "Titanic" crew have finished the promotion and returned to Los Angeles, James, Rachel, Leonardo can all distract a part of their attention, I just need to hide myself That's it."
Guan Shui shrugged noncommittally, but then he hesitated to look back at the girl.
"I know what you want to ask," Angela, who noticed his eyes, shook her head, then spread her hands, "My answer is—no."
Pu Guanshui was silent for a moment before sighing: "I apologize to you on her behalf."
"It doesn't matter, I think if I have time and she is willing, I can have a good talk with her." At this point, Angela suddenly snapped her fingers: "How about this? You tell me her home address. , I will write her two letters a week from now on, if I don't reply, I will keep writing, no need to write anything special, just daily life, like a diary, I believe she will communicate with me sooner or later!"
"In that case... then thank you." Guan Shui nodded gratefully.
"It's nothing, it's just a hand." The girl smiled, with this trace of unknown meaning.
