Chapter 59: "Terminator II" released

With the arrival of July, the temperature in London also started to climb to the highest peak of the year, but even this highest temperature is 72 degrees Fahrenheit, which can be said to be quite pleasant. Except for morning and evening the weather is cool and you need to wear a jacket, other times are very casual, just pay attention to wear an umbrella to prevent possible showers at any time.
In addition, entering July also heralds the arrival of various peak seasons, such as tourism, fashion, entertainment, and so on. Business people are doing their best to promote their hopes to attract more attention. However, in the movie market, many of the movies originally scheduled for release on July 1st have quietly changed their schedules, because there is also a movie released on this day-"Terminator 2"!
Prior to this, the publisher successfully raised people's curiosity about this movie that has invested over 100 million yuan through various publicity. The liquid metal robot T-1000 appeared in the trailer also surprised many people who like visual effects. Also, the "Terminator" produced by Cameron also cultivated a lot of movie fans, so in the first week, it got more than 30 million box office in North America, and the total box office reached 60 million in a week!
Many film critics have expressed shock at the film, whether it is the plot or visual effects, and some even pointed out that the scene where the T-1000 slowly walked out from the explosion scene has no less impact on the film industry than the "Star Wars" of 77 ". Regardless of whether this statement is exaggerated, the release of "Terminator 2" has indeed attracted the attention of countless people in the shortest time.
"In this movie you can see a lot of things, a slight mockery of industrial civilization, a movie atmosphere that looks dignified because of the addition of religious atmosphere, and an alternative relationship between father and son. The director always controls the film's rhythm. Slow, but always attracting the attention of the audience. The actor's performance is also very brilliant, Linda highlights the feminist color, Edward, who is only 14 years old, is perfect, and congratulations Arnold, finally found a suitable My own way of performing. Of course, and Robert, the scene where the T-1000 came out of the fire is bound to leave a heavy stroke in film history! "
This is part of a film review written by a critic in the column of The New York Times. I can imagine how shocking Terminator 2 is. Therefore, after the second week of release, the total box office in North America has exceeded 100 million!
"Remember what I said to you, La Verne? This movie will set off a wave all over the world." Adrian sat on the sofa with his legs on the phone and said, although he is now in London, and "The End It will take some time before the film is released in the UK, but he is still watching the film.
"This is indeed an excellent movie, but there is not much to say yet." Lafferne's voice remained calm. Steady, not ill, and able to maintain a good mentality under any circumstances is his characteristic and advantage.
It's true that for any movie, two weeks at the box office is worth congratulating, except for "Terminator 2", after all, the investment in this movie is unprecedented for the moment. According to the regulations of the box office, if the box office cannot exceed 200 million, then the loss is a certain thing.
Adrien didn't justify, and hanged up after saying a few more words. To be honest, he really wanted to go to the cinema to watch this movie for the first time. The extra 10 million investment was not a waste of money. He had seen the strengthened T-1000 in Cameron's studio before arriving in London. CG is really different from what he remembers. Adrian wondered if it would look more perfect and shocking when viewed on the big screen.
But it doesn't matter. About half a month later, this movie will be released in the UK. It will not be too late to check it out. Speaking of which, Cameron's burning up the money was really great. Although it seemed that he was satisfied after getting the 10 million investment, Adrian knew that this guy in private did not plan to pull more investment.
Crazy guy, but it is also this crazy guy who dared to burn a "Titanic" for $ 240 million in the mid-1990s. Although "Terminator 2" opened the CG era of the film, and "Jurassic Park" carried it forward, but the trend of high investment production began with "Titanic".
"So, this guy should be in his hands, too," Adrian muttered to himself.
Then, as soon as his ear hurt, he saw that Emma was sulking and looked at him with a little grievance.
"Okay, what is it?" Adrian asked helplessly, more than a month after the disaster-like accident, the little girl seemed to have come out of the haze, not only smiling a lot more Little, communication with other people is relatively smooth, and sometimes no different from ordinary children over 1 year old.
She said sometimes because she still wanted to stay with Adrian. Even if he no longer needed to accompany him to take a bath or go to the bathroom, he would be upset and panic if he left him for too long. Moreover, her perception of Kate has hardly changed, and she still rejects, no matter how hard the other party pleases her.
"Origami!" The little girl held up her hand and spit out a few simple words from her mouth, "frog."
"Are you alright? Ha, Emma, ​​you are so smart." Adrian took the frog origami in her hand and looked at it, then waved it to Kate curled up on the sofa on the other side.
I noticed that the two of them, Kate, gave Adrian a glance, and said nothing, and lowered his head to continue reading.
"Really so beautiful?" Adrian couldn't help asking.
"Of course, this is" Resident Evil "." Kate smiled half-ridiculously.
正式 The official publication date of the novel Resident Evil is in late June. Because the same language is used, the British version will soon be available in London. In addition, only the Japanese version enjoys this treatment. After all, Adrian's motivation for writing this novel was to want a little disgusting Japanese.
Of course, Adrian's explanation for this is, isn't the Japanese also interested in zombie novels? You can publish a small amount of trial water. Although the publishing company is surprised, it still does.
It ’s just that the sales volume of this novel is really unsatisfactory. The sales volume of the first print was not bad. 300,000 copies were sold for about 200,000. The print company printed 100,000 copies and then sold them immediately. Already. Although it is a bit profitable, it is not very much. You know, in order to enrich the content, Adrian deliberately combined the plot of "Resident Evil 1" and "Resident Evil 0" into one book, the refined plot is relatively more impressive, but did not expect such sales The general-of course, this is also related to the pseudonym of Adrian, otherwise the gimmick "the first science fiction directed by a newly emerging ghost talent" will attract enough attention.
I was dissatisfied and dissatisfied, and Adrian didn't say much, so that the success of Resident Evil was a game. It is already very good for the adapted novel to have such sales, let alone he is not bad for this. As for the second-rate writer Ben Arnt, who co-authored or wrote for him, there is no comment. He has not contributed much and has received less royalties than before. There was no opinion from the publishing company, and their business was in danger when they were acquired. Although Resident Evil did not make a lot of money to at least stabilize the situation, coupled with the injection of new funds, it was also foreseeable to regain strength.
不过 "But I want to read another book," Kate's voice suddenly turned, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "I don't know when I can see it."
"That one, it won't be too long, and it should be more exciting than Resident Evil, I promise." Adrian could not help laughing, and then he felt Emma was pulling his own corner.
"Ed!" The little girl in her arms raised her hands and muttered, "Bath!"
"Are you going to take a shower? Okay ..." Adrian looked down the corridor, "Ms. Malson, the little one is going to take a shower."
"No! You!" Emma hurriedly stunned Kate with unhappy eyes.
"Hey, obedient, Emma, ​​we said yes." Adrian did not compromise, and when Ms. Malson came over, she picked up the little girl and handed it to her.
"Well, Emma, ​​it won't be long." Malson comforted the little guy. "You'll see Ed soon."
Although reluctant, although always looked at Adrian pitifully, Emma was taken away.
"How does it feel to be enamored, Ed?" Kate sighed. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com
"Very good." Adrian, who saw the little guy leave, finally turned his head and looked at her with a smile.
Kate snorted softly, got up and walked across the corridor, and Adrian shrugged and followed behind her. Pushing open the door of the study, the two walked in one after the other, and hugged and kissed fiercely without saying a word.
Their tongues were entangled fiercely, and their hands were soothing on each other's body. From one side to the other, crunching sounds came and went. In the end, Kate sitting on the table clamped her long legs around Adrian's waist, and Adrian began to exercise vigorously with a strong back.
Various voices echoed in the study, and the accumulated enthusiasm was released at this moment. After a long time, the continuous tremor of the body was over, and the two men calmed down in a gasp.
"What a hell, now every time I do something, it seems like we can't see people." Kate, holding Adrian and not letting go, grumbled with a gruff voice.
"No way, Emma is entangled, and I can't ignore her," Adrian kissed her cheek gently. "Well, this situation will soon improve-yes, you said before The California College of the Arts has approved the application, right? When things here are over, we will go back to Los Angeles together, and then you can do whatever you want. "
"I know that!" Kate snorted softly at Adrian, who was laughing, and his unstruck legs suddenly forced again. "Is there time, would I do it again?"
德里 Adrian raised an eyebrow. "As you wish."
Then the various sounds soon rang again.
