[US Entertainment] Superstar

Chapter 358

To be honest, Eve herself didn't expect "Shrek" to explode like this.

When she was reading the script, she felt that the audience would definitely like this story and this naive, silly, and cute green monster.

But now "Shrek" almost occupies the content of every media and entertainment section, and it also makes Eve appear in the field of vision of the global audience again.

To be an actor, one must have works, without the support of works, all popularity and fame are castles in the air, and if you don't pay attention, you will fall to pieces.

If you have a work, you will not be forgotten by fans and the media, and you will not be unable to go back when one or two works encounter Waterloo.

Although Eve's debut time is short now, she has made many excellent works, and the box office and evaluation come from awards are very outstanding.

Although the success of "Shrek" cannot be attributed to Eve, it is undeniable that Eve's joining has brought a lot of attention to the film out of thin air, and it has become a hot summer movie in the eyes of the media from the very beginning.

After serious inventory and thinking, people were surprised to find that Eve not only has excellent appearance and acting skills, but more importantly, has a strong vision for film selection.

After such a long time, I have almost never encountered a bad film, which shows how unique the vision is.Actors almost cast a wide net when they choose a movie at the beginning. It is very good to get a role, and there is no right to choose.

So looking at the history of film for hundreds of years, there are almost no people who have not made bad films.

Even movie kings and queens, even the second generation rich second generation stars with sky-high resources have made bad movies.

But Eve was different. There was really no trace of any bad movies in her resume.Even if it's a purely commercial film, not to mention making a lot of money at the box office, the reputation will not collapse.

"The movie starring Eve has achieved another success. "Shrek" broke through 4500 million US dollars in North America in its first weekend, and the global box office exceeded 1 million US dollars!"

"Horrible, she has such a good eye."

"As long as it's a movie she starred in, she hasn't lost money."

"Not to mention that it hasn't been released yet, Eve must be a lucky star at the box office, right?"

"Either winning an award or exploding at the box office."

"The film and television companies, take a look at Eve, and take the script over quickly, mascot!"

These fans and netizens were surprised by Eve's ability to choose projects. Before, everyone was always worried that she didn't cooperate with big directors, and making some low-cost movies from time to time would consume herself, but it turned out to be her accumulation and background.

The success of a movie is not enough to rely on the script alone, but also the production company, production team, cast and crew, etc.

Therefore, once Eve's title of box office lucky star can be confirmed, it will be very beneficial to her development.

Hollywood companies are actually somewhat superstitious, they are superstitious about success.

When various reports from the outside world continued to hustle and bustle, Eve and her team came to Sicily, Italy from Cannes to prepare for a vacation.

Manager Robert stood on the side of the yacht with a glass of martini. He was wearing sunglasses, and the hair on his forehead was blown wildly by the sea breeze.

He couldn't help but be unhappy, with a high commission in hand, and a rare vacation.Signing Eve was his biggest success, and the star didn't need to bother at all.

"The head of DreamWorks, Carson Berg, called me just now. They are now trying their best to hit the box office and want to put Disney under their feet. The Oscars to be held next year, the first animated feature film award is sure to win, this will I have already started public relations."

Eve is wearing a cool dress, and next to her is the golden retriever Snoopy who sticks out her tongue and blows the wind. At first, she was a little worried that Snoopy would get seasick, but now she looks very good, and she was still on the deck just now. Catch seagulls.

After hearing the agent's words, Eve replied: "DreamWorks is very familiar with the Oscars. If "Shrek" really breaks the North American box office record this year, then it really has no rivals. With such a high evaluation, it is natural to win the award. If the Oscars are given to other animated films, it will be difficult to convince the public, and it may lose its authority from the first session.”

"That's the reason. Now you have really become a mascot. Many companies think that you have a good eye for choosing movies. The company specifically explained that if you have a fancy project, you must give priority to telling the company, so that you can plan ahead."

Robert is now in pain and happiness, and he can't go on vacation with peace of mind. He has already made up his mind to fly back to Los Angeles tomorrow.

Celebrities can rest, but managers can't.

The film had just been released, and it was the time when the popularity exploded, and there were too many businesses to be approached.

"Don't think too much about me, it's just good luck. Luck can't last long, and there will always be a time when it runs out. That's when it will be the hardest, and you have to be prepared." Eve was not successful If you get carried away with victory, the memory of your previous life will always be limited, so there will be a sense of urgency, and you want to have enough capital and popularity when the memory expires, so that you can control your future with ease.

So she is developing in many aspects now, not only investing in Apple and Netflix stocks, but also developing in the direction of director and producer, and shooting various types of movies.

Robert nodded, "I will try my best to direct public opinion towards the quality of the film, your acting skills and popularity, but the momentum is very good now, have you considered accepting new films?"

Keanu, who was fishing silently, couldn't help but said: "Guys, we are on vacation, can we not talk about work?"

He jokingly added: "You are all a bunch of workaholics, such a beautiful scenery can't stop it."

Eve picked up a glass of freshly squeezed juice, raised the glass and said, "Okay, don't talk about the new movie for now. Let's talk about it after I return to Los Angeles, anyway, there are so many movie appointments."

Robert is kind, and talking about work under the blue sea and blue sky is indeed a bit unpleasant.

……

After sending away Robert, Mandy and other staff on a special plane, Eve and Keanu began to live a real two-person world, but there was an extra dog.

The footprints of the two of them have left imprints in various places in Sicily, like a young couple on a honeymoon, as if they want to integrate into each other's bodies after not seeing each other for more than a month.

Under the bright starry sky, the sea breeze blows on the body at night, bringing a little bit of coolness.

Eve was covered with a tulle, and Keanu put her flying hair back with his fingers, then gently cupped her cheek, and kissed her affectionately.

The seaside villa is empty and empty, and no one in the room disturbs them. Eve responds to her boyfriend's enthusiasm, and the two light up the night.

Xiaobie is better than newlyweds, and they can always bring different feelings to each other.

After the cloud had disappeared and the rain had cleared, Eve lay in Keanu's arms and fell asleep against his heart.

……

Los Angeles is the entertainment capital of the United States, where stars gather, where stars gather.

When Eve and Keanu returned with their dogs, the reporters filming at the airport followed like crazy.

"Miss Campbell, I heard that Disney intends to invite you to participate in the dubbing of "The Lion King 3". Is this true?"

"Congratulations, another movie has broken through [-] million in North America."

"Eve, look this way!"

"There are reports that you are planning your first movie. Is this news accurate?"

"Keanu, do you have any new film plans after "The Matrix"?"

"What do you think of Shrek's failure at Cannes?"

"You are so beautiful today~"

Returning to Los Angeles from Sicily, all kinds of information rushed to her face, reminding her that she had come to the real world.

Both Keanu and Eve ignored the reporter's inquiry, but went directly to the place where the car was taken, where the assistant Mandy was already waiting with the off-road vehicle.

"Welcome back, Miss Campbell, Mr. Reeves."

Eve took off her sunglasses after sitting in the car. She responded with a smile, "Thank you. It's great to see you. I can't wait to take a good rest and have a massage or something."

Mandy showed a regretful look, "I'm very sorry, your rest time may be postponed. Evan and Robert have already waited in your living room. They have a lot of business and TV program invitations in their hands, and they all want to I want to talk to you."

Eve's popularity was at a high point, but she went to Asia to play and film for more than a month, and then she was on vacation in Sicily.

She has three movies to be released during the summer vacation. As the heroine or even the absolute protagonist, the organizer has too many promotional matters to cooperate with.

Fortunately, "Shrek" is an animated film, and I only participated in the dubbing, so I can accept media interviews in Cannes.

But "The Bourne Shadow" is different from "The Notebook" and needs to be warmed up.

After resting for so long, the sense of alienation from the world brought about by the filming of "Lost in Translation" finally disappeared, and her inner world was no longer cloudy and rainy.

"By the way, Ms. Campbell, I have good news for you. "Shrek" has set a new record for an animated film. Although the global box office is still far behind, North America has surpassed it."

Mandy knew that Eve didn't pay attention to the box office when she was playing in Europe, so she took the statistical data over.

Eve actually knew this result, and the reporters revealed these things just now when they were chasing the filming, but it is more intuitive to look at the data.

"Shrek" topped the box office for seven days after its release on Friday, before being hit with "Pearl Harbor" the following week.

However, what caught people's eye was that the movie with an investment of 1.4 million US dollars took a sharp turn for the worse after earning 7500 million US dollars at the box office in four days, and its word of mouth collapsed!

Shrek, on the other hand, benefited from good word of mouth, and actually achieved a reversal in the next weekend, earning 5500 million US dollars in four days.If it weren't for meeting Michael Bay and Ben Affleck, it would be a proper box office champion.

Fortunately, the audience is very realistic, and the green monster achieved a box office lead on Monday.

The highly anticipated "Pearl Harbor" only won the box office champion for four days and fell to the ground. It simply fell to the ground!

In the third week, there were no blockbuster releases, and Shrek, which had better control of the decline, continued to suppress and won its second North American box office champion. At this time, its North American box office had reached 1.49 million US dollars, far exceeding the level of "The Lion King" in the same period.

In the fourth week, Hugh Jackman teamed up with John Trawater and Halle Berry's action movie "Swordfish Action" to arrive as scheduled, but it ended in bitterness and was sniped by Shrek.

As for the global box office, "Shrek" already has a box office of 4.3 million U.S. dollars, and it has won the box office championship in the United Kingdom, France, Canada, Australia and other countries and regions.

The dark horse element has been tested, which shocked the entire film industry!

So many big movies can't do anything to it, so will "Bourne Shadow", which will be released this Friday, pull it down from the throne?
