Hollywood Road

On Monday morning, Daisy walked into the office on time. Due to the relatively idle work, she was located in the corner of the big office. She turned on the computer and checked the work mailbox casually, and forwarded the boss’s mandatory request on Twitter and Facebook. He forwarded a few messages, and then quietly entered the names of 'Murphy Stanton' and 'Wolf of Wall Street' on the Google website.

Gently pressing the Enter key on the keyboard, a large piece of related content appeared in front of Daisy's eyes, many of which were comments on "The Wolf of Wall Street", both good and bad.

Daisy gritted her teeth angrily when she saw those comments calling 'bad movies', wishing to drag those guys in front of her through the internet and screen, and beat them up.

Beating is not enough, you should hang them on the big hooks, put them into the electric oven to roast, drag them out when they are slightly charred, and then drag them out, apply oil and salt, and then continue to roast.

It must be roasted eighteen times in a row to let those guys die. Finally, they will be charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and they will be dragged to the market to sell barbecue!

Taking her eyes off the comments, Daisy was attracted by the title at the bottom of the page.

""The Wolf of Wall Street" was a big box office hit in the first weekend, and Murphy Stanton's new film has no suspense to top the weekend box office in North America!"

Daisy only glanced at the headline and clicked on the link. This is obviously the first weekend box office statistics for "The Wolf of Wall Street".

This is the latest North American box office bulletin. Daisy temporarily put aside other thoughts and read it seriously.

"The Wolf of Wall Street hit North American theaters early on Thursday night, earning $9.4 million that night, not only far surpassing Murphy Stanton's previous film "Inglourious Basterds," but also creating a new North American R-rated film It broke the box office record, and then expanded to 3960 theaters on Friday, winning the box office champion of the day with an income of 3.16 million US dollars without any suspense."

"The film grossed another $2.74 million on Saturday, up from Friday's first day excluding the advance, showing good box office trends, and then another $2.25 million on Sunday, the film opened for three days The North American box office will reach 79.25 million US dollars, easily won the North American box office champion, Murphy-Stanton continues to show a strong box office appeal!"

"Men accounted for 77% of the audience in the first week of the film, occupying an absolute dominant position; 58% of the audience in the first weekend of the film were over 25 years old, showing that it is relatively distinct in terms of age; among them Forty-six percent of the audience came to support the Murphy Stanton brand, and 31 percent of the audience identified themselves as fans of starring Robert Downey Jr."

"In terms of word-of-mouth, "The Wolf of Wall Street" has an audience score () of 'A+', and its popcorn index also reached 93%, and the audience's word-of-mouth is overwhelming. According to the audience's word-of-mouth response, the film is expected to hit 200 million in North America $5,000,000."

"The media evaluation of "The Wolf of Wall Street" is also mainly positive. Ninety percent of the 225 media included in Rotten Tomatoes gave the film a favorable rating, with a score of 81; Good reputation."

Seeing this, Daisy was in a daze. Murphy Stanton was still the same Murphy Stanton, and his talent in movies was really remarkable.

But she shook her head suddenly, thinking of the protest at the Los Angeles Police Department, some dissatisfaction with Murphy Stanton rose in her heart.

They supported him so much, and launched a huge protest action, the result? The sheriff was only fired by the Los Angeles police and was investigated for duty-related crimes, which was far from what she expected.

How could he let that sheriff go so easily? Daisy shook her head straight, and said to herself in a low voice, "It turns out that Murphy Stanton is not as tough as his videos show, he is just a softie!"

The sheriff should be arrested and cut his flesh piece by piece with the smallest scalpel until the skeleton remains!

Thinking of this, Daisy made a decision to go back to find a few "Chain Saw" at night,

Watch it again from beginning to end, maybe I can think of a better way to torture those bastards!

Well, it's decided! She took out her mobile phone and added this item to the itinerary.

With the release of the box office of "The Wolf of Wall Street" in its first weekend, the disputes in the media and on the Internet have become more lively. There are many people who criticize this film, and more people speak good things about this film, and there are some onlookers. People are cheering and cheering, watching the excitement is no big deal.

Although dozens of Oscar judges are still slamming this film, the old men at the core of the academy have remained silent. People like them are all Hollywood people. After decades of Hollywood, I haven't seen any messy things, so I won't easily express my position.

In fact, all these disputes are for Oscar.

No matter who is blackmailing "The Wolf of Wall Street", and no matter how loud the voice of praise is, these disputes over the Oscars can be summed up in one sentence: elevate yourself and belittle your opponent!

From a certain point of view, this is like the US presidential election. Similarly, in the promotion and public relations of the Oscars, it is also allowed to slander the opponent to a certain extent.

In the past Oscars, there have been many more exaggerated situations than this. Compared with those unscrupulous slanders, the criticisms received by Murphy and "Wolf of Wall Street" are nothing at all.

In the distant past, Hearst, a media tycoon in the 1940s, was angry at the insinuations of "Citizen Kane" on himself. He not only mobilized all his propaganda machines to block the film, but also threw money at the studio in an attempt to destroy the film. After failing, he even took personal attacks against director Orson Wells, even arranging underage sex in the latter's hotel room in an attempt to ruin director Orson Wells.

Thanks to the well-meaning police who informed in advance, Orson-Wells was able to escape unscathed, but "Citizen Kane" was not so lucky, and finally hated the Oscar that year.

As for the closest ones, there are more, and the most typical one is Harvey Weinstein, whom Murphy has worked with before.

In fact, Harvey Weinstein has been known as "the most unscrupulous pusher" in the Oscar game for nearly two decades.

It can be said that since he joined, the previously relatively peaceful Oscar selection process has become full of blood.

"Shakespeare in Love" is undoubtedly Harvey Weinstein's most classic achievement, and it is also his most notorious "black PR".

At that time, Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan" was the most popular in the "Olympiad", but at the critical moment when the second voting was about to determine the award, there were many rumors about "Saving Private Ryan" in the media Negative news, such as passing through the British World War II veterans, questioning the inaccurate depiction of the Omaha beach scene at the beginning of the film, and so on.

In the end, "Shakespeare in Love" won the best picture upset, but became the object of ridicule in the later test of time.

In all fairness, Harvey Weinstein's public relations strategy is not as extreme as Hearst's. The most common trick he uses is to disclose the opponent's black material to the media, and use the media's mouth to hold back the opponent.

For example, when Harvey Weinstein was still at Miramax in 2003, Rob Marshall directed "Chicago", and the PK was the powerful "The Pianist". According to Hollywood standards, "The Pianist" is undoubtedly Dominate the best picture.

But in the awards season, many media began to hype the personal history of Roman Polanski, the director of "The Pianist", and finally "Chicago" won the best picture.

So far, what Harvey Weinstein has criticized the most is not "Shakespeare in Love", but that he did everything he could to "black" "A Beautiful Mind". He said that the film deliberately concealed the homosexuality of the protagonist Nash Tendency, and then said that Nash was "anti-Semitic" back then.

Considering the strong influence of the Jews in Hollywood and even the entire United States, the latter's "distortion of facts" can be said to be particularly vicious.

However, Harvey Weinstein can't cover the sky with one hand at all, and Oscar is not a game of the Weinsteins. Behind "A Beautiful Mind" there are also powerful producers and distributors, and it finally won the best picture.

In order to avoid an unnecessary war, Harvey Weinstein later had to call Universal Pictures, the distributor of "A Beautiful Mind," to apologize.

Compared with other rumors, this has also become the only confirmed "black PR" of Harvey Weinstein.

The academy does acquiesce in slandering opponents appropriately, but it is not black without limit. After learning the lesson, the "black" became more cautious, just like Murphy this time, it was difficult to see who was really behind the scenes.

"The problem is that the public relations behind the Oscars have been around for a long time, and it is no secret to the American media or the public."

Sitting on the plane back to Los Angeles, Gal Gadot asked curiously, "Why does the academy allow it to exist?"

"This is the same as political campaigns. 'PR' represents the will to campaign and the spirit to win."

In this regard, Murphy has enough understanding, "Although there may be deviations in the application process, the lack of public relations shows that there is not even the most basic competitive posture; in this country that advocates free competition, it will be regarded as unqualified competitor."

According to his judgment, in the foreseeable future, the public relations behind Oscar will continue to provide gossip for ordinary people, just like the presidential and congressional campaigns.

Bill Rossis has already flown back to Los Angeles ahead of schedule to prepare for the awards season PR of "The Wolf of Wall Street" with 20th Century Fox. Murphy is still increasing his exposure, which can increase the box office, It can also attract the attention of the judges of various awards.

After arriving in Los Angeles, Murphy received good news that could stimulate the film's box office. (to be continued)). If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users please read here. )
