Chapter 411: 50 years of life

Many guests came to Ronan to congratulate him.
Tom Cruise and Ronan gave a strong hug, and then said: "It's a great film, it's really touching. It's a pity that Will went to New York to film, otherwise he must take Jaden and Vero to watch. Watch this movie."
Ronan knew that he was talking about Will Smith's son and daughter: "The two will have to grow older to understand."
Tom Cruise patted Ronan's arm: "Old wine in a new bottle, but it's amazing."
Ronan smiled, not being polite with Tom Cruise, and then shook hands with the person who came to congratulate him, saying polite words.
In Hollywood, it's normal to show up for each other.
The premiere ended smoothly, and there was a press conference. Ronan did not attend and left the theater directly.
On the first day "Hurricane Rescue" was released in North America, another grand event was held in Los Angeles. Ronan found time to chat with Amanda Seyfried.
"I just finished a script here." Ronan said directly: "The heroine is very suitable for you."
Amanda Seyfried put down the cup of water and said, "Ronan, I will act if you think it suits you."
Ronan said roughly: "The theme of youth campus, about the life of high school students, is just right for your age."
Amanda also went to high school and said, "Well, I have no problem."
Ronan saw the public relations staff of the crew come to Amanda Seyfried and said, "Go ahead. The production manager of Shahai Entertainment has already started to form a crew. I will let him contact your mother. Send the script to your mother too. You should prepare in advance. The audition process must go."
"Well, good." Amanda Seyfried smiled dimples: "I will definitely be ready."
Watching Amanda Seyfried enter the recording scene, Ronan found Jeffrey Abrams to chat for a while.
Ronan said: "The film has a good response."
"I heard that I got 5.28 million US dollars in advance." Jeffrey Abrams was obviously in a good mood: "Ronan, is this film a success?"
Ronan nodded slightly: "Success is already an inevitable result. We are ready to put the sequel on the agenda, Jeffery, continue to be the director of this project."
The two parties signed a contract for the director of the trilogy. Jeffery Abrams certainly couldn't refuse: "No problem." But he still said: "Ronan, it only took a year for this film to be set up and released. Over time, I have been under tremendous pressure. I am still very nervous and need a few months of rest and adjustment."
Although the investment in the film is only 20 million US dollars, it is only a medium-scale production of a general scale, but the work pressure caused by tight time is real. Ronan cannot refuse this reasonable request and said: "Yes, my initial plan is next year's Oscars. Then start preparing for the sequel."
Jeffrey Abrams thought about it briefly, and said: "This rest period is enough." He said with a smile: "Pressure is what every director must bear, and pressure is often the driving force for progress."
Ronan reminded: "The investment in the sequel will increase a bit."
Needless to say, the increase in salary for the sequel alone will increase production costs.
Although "Hurricane Rescue" has only been released for one day, the well received and excellent early box office have given Jeffery Abrams, who directed the film for the first time, considerable confidence.
He smiled and said: "The increase in costs will increase the pressure on the director, but it is also a good opportunity. I have participated in many low-cost films. The huge challenge facing low-cost films is how to attract the audience to see your work. The benefits of shooting high-cost films are obvious. It has the opportunity to meet with global audiences. As a filmmaker, this is the best opportunity."
Ronan nodded slowly. As a director who has to bear the cost pressure of tens of millions of dollars or even hundreds of millions of dollars, learning to face pressure and work under high pressure is the most basic skill.
Jeffery Abrams said seriously: "In fact, I enjoy the process of making movies, especially when working with teams and creative people to make movies. The sparks of thinking collide all over the room. It’s very exciting."
Ronan shook hands with Jeffrey Abrams: "I look forward to you bringing another masterpiece in the future."
Jeffery Abrams is undoubtedly a very thoughtful director.
Ronan also knows that to turn a movie in his head into a movie that can be screened, the cooperation of these directors is needed.
Some directors may have some differences in philosophy, but as long as the ultimate goal is the same, they can cooperate.
Ronan always believes that even if the number of public in theaters decreases, the future market for movies will become larger and larger.
The greatest power of movies is that they can bring experiences and experiences that audiences have never had before. Whether it is real or non-existent, fantasy, etc., movies are an excellent way to let audiences see what they have never imagined. Or something I've seen.
Although he seemed to be busy every day, Ronan enjoyed the process very much.
I have the same interests as my work. How lucky is this? It is not too much to say that he is the son of the goddess of luck.
The quality of a movie is determined by the production, but in recent years, the commercial performance of movies has become more and more closely related to publicity and marketing.
Ronan wouldn't have a good reputation because of "Hurricane Rescue", so he would take it for granted that the film could sell well.
The promotion of all aspects of "Hurricane Rescue" is still continuing.
At the promotional activities on the first day of the release, the distributor Embassy Pictures and the producer Shahai Entertainment jointly announced that they would spend five percent of the film’s North American box office into the just-established Missing Girl Relief Foundation. Find and help relevant people to provide donation support.
Although purposeful philanthropy will be criticized by some people with the highest morals, charity with a commercial nature is very common in the United States. In fact, most charities are of this nature.
Help with purpose is always more commendable than those who only know that they occupy the moral high ground but have no actual action.
Frankly speaking, purposeful philanthropy can often go on for a long time.
At the same time, some propaganda resources are also approaching Liam Neeson.
Liam Neeson has a good reputation in Hollywood, has also received an Oscar nomination for best actor, and he is also a typical old man.
Under Ronan's instruction, the Embassy's Film Industry Propaganda Department carefully concocted an article about Liam Neeson, which the navy could spread on the Internet.
"Life is fifty years old! Remember Liam Neeson's rescue career!"
Although it is still far away from becoming the God of Rescue, there are only two films that are really rescued, "Schindler's List" and "Hurricane Rescue", but it does not hinder Liam Neeson's publicity and hype in this regard.
This can also pave the way for the next cooperation between Liam Nissens and Shahai Entertainment.
In addition, the propaganda hype also focused on Liam Neeson's skill, telling all the audience that Liam Neeson is also a good action player in reality.
"Liam Neeson was a boxer when he was young and loved boxing champion Ali. He started punching when he was 9 years old. When he was 15 years old, his nose was interrupted, but he still won the Irish Youth Championship. Until the age of 17. When he was completely knocked out in a match, Liam gave up his boxing career completely."
The audience also bought Liam Neeson's account. In the copyright comment section of IMDB "Hurricane Rescue", there are many comments that praise Liam Neeson.
"Liam Neeson is the best acting performer in action movies! In "Hurricane Rescue" you can see his love for his daughter in his eyes!"
There are even audiences mentioning Liam Neeson’s regret at the Oscars.
"The last cry of "Schindler's List" is really an actor-level scene, but it's a pity that I can't help it with Tom Hanks!
Some female movie fans seem to have a soft spot for older men.
"It would be nice if the uncle is twenty years younger, and he will have more energy to shoot action movies. In addition, the uncle's voice is really magnetic."
"Liam Nissen is definitely the spokesperson of Uncle Charm~EbookFREE.me~ In contrast, because of the extensive media coverage of the missing girl, Amanda Seyfried did not receive obvious attention after the screening. increase.
But Ronan, as a producer, praised Amanda Seyfried in an interview.
"Amanda is very professional. She takes her work seriously, and can quickly integrate herself into her work, and she has an outstanding performance at the first time. She knows how to act and how to express what kind of emotions in the face of different things. She has already He is an experienced performing veteran."
When the film's first day box office was released, all the efforts were rewarded.
The first day of "Hurricane Rescue" in North America, including the advance show, in 3120 theaters, won 18.6 million US dollars.
This result also surpassed the $12.85 million of "Die Another Day" and became the North American box office champion of the day.
"Hurricane Rescue" has gained not only the box office, but also a good reputation.
"The whole film was completed in one go, without any sloppyness, and the plot is smooth and complete."
"Very good commercial film, very well made."
"The success of this film is that it uses the plot to mobilize the audience's sense of presence. I watched the 007 film last weekend. Although the various effects and actions were designed particularly well, there was always a sense of liveliness. And "Hurricane Rescue" It is about the father saving his daughter, and the daughter was arrested by the most hateful trafficker, facing the fate of drugging and forced prostitution, so I was nervous for her. There is a special feeling that the protagonist of the father is killing I would secretly applaud every bad guy, because in this film, the separation of good and evil coincides with the instinctive perception of the audience."
