Chapter 103 There is a wolf before and a tiger behind
Midsummer is vast and July is not yet over.
Hollywood blockbusters generally begin their promotion several months in advance.
But "Little Miss Sunshine" is not yet qualified.
Promoting more than a month in advance is already pretty good, and there aren’t that many ways to do it.
"Hey Chen, is this the guy you brought here to rob the bank?" Jerry, who was picking up Chen An at the airport, noticed Zhao Xiong next to Chen An at first sight.
Chen An pointed his thumb at Zhao Xiong next to him and said, "No, we are here to launch a surprise attack on Washington."
"Ok, then can we finish the promotion before the attack? Our movie will surely be a great success then."
"No problem, we will call out your name when the time comes, and your contribution will not be in vain."
The two started chatting nonsense as soon as they met, because Chen An brought someone with him and the other person's Ford Mustang couldn't accommodate him.
Chen An and Zhao Xiong could only take a taxi to the same hotel as before, but this time they had to book an additional hotel.
But the hotel was big enough and there were enough rooms for both of them to stay, just not on the same floor as before.
"Director Chen, what should we do tonight?" Zhao Xiong, who had just put down his luggage, came over hurriedly.
Chen An was full of questions. Aren’t you tired? You’ve been on a flight for more than ten hours and you want to go out and have fun as soon as you land at night.
"You are really made of iron. Can you go to bed first?"
"That's it?"
"What do you mean?!"
Although the other party used provocation, Chen An refused to take any action and simply closed the door and went to sleep.
Zhao Xiong didn't understand the language, so he had to go back to sleep.
The next day, Jerry changed a car and came to find Chen An.
He was holding two breakfasts in his hands, "Good morning, Chen. Where's the big guy from yesterday?"
"Next door, what publicity do I need to take care of?"
"Not much. The budget for publicity is not much. Apart from the last show, there is no urgent publicity. The movie will be released on the 30th of this month."
"Is it really okay to release it in the summer, Jerry?"
Chen An couldn't understand why Warner wanted to release the film at this time.
As one of the hottest seasons in Hollywood, the summer season sees many blockbuster movies released every year.
This year is even more terrifying, with Julia Roberts' "Runaway Bride" released in the same period, and Tom Cruise's two classic films "Eyes Wide Shut" and "American Pie" before it.
There is also the famous "The Blair Witch Project", which was released twice before, not to mention the ones that came after.
The most heavyweight movie at the beginning of August, "The Sixth Sense", which has a global box office of 600 million US dollars, is blocking the way behind, which is like a wolf in front and a tiger behind.
Warner is really talented. They are in such a hurry to release the film and have so many capable people around them.
I got fucking hit on the head, and I can't tell the other party that these movies will be a big hit. If I do, people will just think you're a fool.
"Chen, this is arranged by the company. There's nothing I can do about it. Maybe they don't care about this movie and that's why they put it in this schedule." Jerry was also helpless because the schedule decision was not made by him.
"I'm not saying anything bad, Jerry, but your company leader is a genius. I feel we will be torn apart during this period." Even Chen An began to feel a little disappointed.
Sometimes it’s really not because you are not good enough, but because your opponent is too strong, especially the "Sixth Sense" blocking you from behind.
After washing up, Chen An went next door and knocked on Zhao Xiong's door. The other party had already woken up and had been exercising in the room.
After opening the door, Chen An called him to his room and started eating breakfast.
"Jerry, I feel the schedule is very bad, so bad that I have almost given up hope." Chen An, who was eating, couldn't help but say to Jerry.
Jerry sat opposite and said helplessly: "Don't be discouraged, Chen, the movie hasn't even been released yet, but I think our movie is pretty good."
"I hope so. You said before that they were parasites of the company, and now it seems to be true. Although it is only a small investment, it is still an investment of 8 million. How could they not take it seriously?"
"I've said it before, one day I'm going to kick them in the ass with my pointed leather shoes and kick all of them out!"
"Then I wish you success." For Chen An today, he sincerely hopes that Jerry can fulfill their dreams.
Even now, I want to go over and give him a series of left kicks, right whip kicks and five lightning whips.
These opponents, you give me 8 million to make a movie, how do you want me to beat you? If it’s an A-level blockbuster, I’ll tell them to put their hair up.
Although both of them were helpless, unfortunately the film had already been scheduled and it was not something they could decide.
Jerry left later. Today he just came to explain the situation to Chen An.
After saying this, both of them were worried.
Afterwards, Chen An could only go to Naomi to comfort her. As for Zhao Xiong, you can continue exercising.
The movie hasn't been released yet, and Naomi is still doing her job part-time while interviewing as before.
But after receiving this film pay, the frequency of my work has decreased and I don’t have to go every day.
Naomi was happily waiting at home when she learned that Chen An had returned, and Chen An took a taxi to pick her up.
But this time, Chen An walked up to the old apartment she rented, a five-story building without an elevator.
The facilities were a bit old. Chen An walked to the other party’s rented room on the third floor and knocked on the door with the flowers in his arms. He handed them to the other party when the other party happily opened the door to greet him.
"Chen, thank you, I like it very much." Naomi said with a smile while holding the flowers.
Chen An went in and closed the door, then saw the other party took out a transparent vase and put the flowers that Chen An brought in.
It adds a touch of warmth to the slightly dim room.
This was Chen An's first time sending flowers, so he asked the clerk what to send. He didn't know much about it. He didn't even have a vase at home, so how could he understand these things?
Naomi placed the flowers in a vase and placed it in the center of the table as decoration, "It looks very nice. The clerk must have chosen it for you, but I still like it."
"You saw it."
"The flower language of this kind of flower is looking forward to meeting again in the future. It seems that there was a miscommunication between you and the clerk."
As he spoke, he put his nose close to the white and pink petals and gently sniffed the fragrance. Chen An was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to start.
Naomi suddenly turned around and hugged Chen An, "Although you don't understand, I still like the flowers you gave me because you wanted to give them to me." She tiptoed and moved closer to Chen An's face.
Looking at the face in front of him with a bright smile, Chen An simply hugged the other person hard.
"Then teach me what flowers I should give you next time. I will remember it well."
"you guess."
"Then I'll give you every kind until I find your favorite."
"If every time represents a farewell, I think the flowers you gave me will be my favorite."
Chen An put the other person on the bed in the bedroom. The soft mattress sank deeply and a faint fragrance came from the clean sheets.
Quiet as orchid.
Although the house is simple, it has everything.
The kitchen is not big, but it is big enough to prepare a dinner.
Lying on the bed, Chen An, whose worries had faded away, came back to his senses when he smelled the fragrance emanating from the kitchen.
After putting on his clothes and getting out of bed, Chen An sat at the dining table waiting while watching Naomi cooking in the kitchen.
This is the first person I have met who can cook. I have to enjoy a delicious meal with him. Although he speaks English, the food still smells delicious.
"You're up, and I'm done too."
"I was wondering if I should light a candle."
Chen An looked at the two steaks in the other person's hand and said with a smile.
