The release of the subversive iPad 10, the bombardment-like news coverage, and the equally popular "Ghost Story" keep pace. It is no exaggeration to say that the two hot spots contributed by the Westeros system basically occupy the The attention of the public in North America, and even the overseas influence are also spreading rapidly.
Not to mention the iPad 10, there are still two weeks before the official release, but "Ghost Story", on the second day of its release, once again created a box office leap.
In fact, since the media reported that there was a rare daytime queuing phenomenon in "Ghost Story", the result has been predictable.
The special promotion of "Ghost Story" at Tinkber's autumn new product launch conference not only increased the sales of its own iRec, but also added another bundle of dry wood to the hot "Ghost Story".
In the end, on September 9, the second day after its release, "Ghost Story" was screened on 27 screens in North America, and received an additional US$2045 million in a single day.
When many people see this number at first glance, their first reaction is to be skeptical.
Are you sure this is a single day, not a week?
However, this is indeed the case. In one day, "Ghost Story" collected another 1598 million US dollars. Compared with Friday, the single-day box office rose by an astonishing 68%.
You should know that in the North American film market, the three-day weekend is usually the highest on Saturday, followed by Friday, and the lowest on Sunday, which is about to enter the working day. The box office curve shows a parabolic trend.However, under normal circumstances, the box office increase on Saturdays compared to Fridays is often only 10% to 20%.
As for "Ghost Story", compared with the first-day box office on Friday, it directly soared by 68% on Saturday, which can only be described as unreasonable.
Under the impact of "Ghost Story", "Doomsday Alert", which was released at the same time, earned US$305 million on the first day, but on Saturday, when the box office should have risen, the single-day figure fell to a low of US$239 million.
DreamWorks put the mediocre film at the end of September in an attempt to avoid competition, but as the box office plummeted the next day, it became clear that the $9 million blockbuster, even its original $5000 million It is difficult to meet the expectations. If the local market fails, overseas will also be affected. Losses are a foregone conclusion.
With the release of the single-day box office results on Saturday, all parties' initial expectations for "Ghost Story"'s local box office of 1.5 million US dollars were clearly invalidated.
2 million?
even higher?
This is terrible. It's just an ultra-low-cost small film with a public budget of 30 U.S. dollars that actually cost tens of thousands of U.S. dollars at most!
long island.
Simon's position today was changed to Glen Cove City on the west side of Sandpoint City. The two places are only separated by a narrow bay extending from north to south, less than five kilometers away.
The same seaside estate, covering 25 acres.
It's just that the main villa is no longer a white modern building with an inconspicuous style at Sand Point, but a typical American country-style three-story villa with white walls and blue roofs.
Compared with Yingying Yanyan over at Sandian, there are only 6 girls here today.
If you don't count Mo Wuling who came with Zhu Momo.
Mo Wuling was very angry today.
I couldn't help but follow, and seeing my niece huddled in the man's arms like a kitten basking in the sun by the swimming pool made me even angrier, so I turned to the villa by myself and wandered around in the maze-like big villa. Go to the third floor and enter a living room. Through the glass windows, you can just see the large swimming pool surrounded by verdant hedges on the west side of the villa.
And those people over there by the pool.
So even more angry.
Momo, how can you be so depraved.
And someone, how many women does it take to be satisfied?
This bad world.
Poolside.
Zhu Momo, who was wearing a swimsuit and huddled in the man's arms, fiddled with a black iPad 10 by chance, glanced at the villa, looked away, and said to the man next to him suspiciously: "I feel that someone is watching us from the villa."
Simon also glanced casually, but of course found nothing: "I guess it's a waitress."
"It's not like that," Zhu Momo chuckled, "If my sixth sense is right, I have a lot of resentment."
"That's haunting, why don't we stay up tonight and catch ghosts together, and see how our western ghosts are different from yours?"
Zhu Momo suddenly felt competitive: "It is definitely not as terrible as our China."
"You can come out during the day, isn't it scary?"
"Well……"
Zhu Momo frowned, unable to refute for a while, so he turned his attention to the built-in mini-game on the tablet in front of him. The simple racing game designed by Ting Kebaier, of course, did not have the advanced operation of the gyroscope later, and needed a touch screen pen Make contacts.Zhu Momo, who was in pursuit of speed, crashed the car soon after he kept clicking the acceleration button next to him.
"Come again and again."
Simon looked at it with a smile. Compared with the antique tablet computer in his memory, he didn't have much interest in it. After all, there was no color screen, internet, or camera, and there were very few applications, and he needed to use it to operate the touch screen. Dedicated touch screen pen, all kinds of not used to.
However, for people of this era, it is avant-garde enough.
Then again, even though it is a leap forward compared to the last generation of NewtonPad, in fact, Tinkber can do better. At the Mountain View laboratory, prototypes with color screen, network and camera functions have been released.However, if one step is in place, there will be no room for replacement and upgrade in the future, and the long-term interests of Tinkobel will be damaged.
All in all, squeezing toothpaste is king.
When Zhu Momo started to indulge in the small game, there was the sound of rushing water from the swimming pool. The three girls left the swimming pool one by one, took bath towels to dry their bodies, and walked towards Simon together.
These are the three Chinese girls signed by Elite this year.
Shen Gui, 19 years old, 181 centimeters tall, has the word "gui" in her name, but she doesn't look like a lady, instead she has short hair cut to the ears. Fortunately, her pair of almond eyes and standard oval face give her a bit more charming temperament.
Simon Ke is not interested in neutral beauties.
Jiang Mi, 22 years old, with a cute name, but has a height of 187 cm, 1 cm taller than Simon, which has exceeded the industry's default suitable height for female models. The reason why Elite signed the other party is mainly because Simon She has a perfect oval face, thin lips, and a pair of red phoenix eyes, with a special feminine heroism, which makes people easily arouse the desire to conquer.
If she is not too tall, this girl is very suitable to be trained as an action actress.
The last girl has a quirky name that people can remember after hearing it once.
not drunk.
Qin Buzui, 18 years old, 179 centimeters tall, the lowest of the three girls this time, of course, is only relative, with a petite face, big eyes, and natural smiling lips, like a cat.
The three women came to the reclining chair of the same style as that in the manor in Sandian City with a little restraint. Seeing that Zhu Momo had no intention of moving at all, they could only gather together on the other side of Simon.
Qin Buzui, who seemed the most harmless to humans and animals, unknowingly snatched the seat closest to Simon, curled up sideways on the recliner, with his upper body propped up a little, whether on purpose or not, so that the other two girls could only lift up even more It took some body to see Simon.
Qin Buzui didn't dare to be as intimate as Zhu Momo, but he also touched the man around him intentionally or unintentionally, and found a topic: "Simon, it's really nice here, like a paradise."
Simon was not restrained, he put his arms around the slender waist of the girl next to him, felt the smoothness and softness of the palm, rubbed it lightly, and asked, "Who gave you this name?"
Qin Buzui was hugged by the man, his body was only a little stiff, and he quickly leaned over obediently, his head was carefully resting on the man's shoulder, and he raised his face: "Grandma got it."
"Ok?"
Qin Buzui explained: "When I was very young, my mother was always drunk, and my grandparents couldn't control me, so my grandma named me Buzui, hoping that I won't be like my mother when I grow up."
Simon laughed: "It sounds like there should be a long story."
