Chapter 743: What does South Korea use to conquer the world

This matter did not end immediately. Before the film was released, Ryan didn't want it to end. Keeping a certain topic hot was not harmful to the film.

Facing the surging pressure of public opinion, Roger Albert quickly responded.

"A lot of people have not watched a movie, but have been deceived by some people. "Transformers" is really bad, saying that it is good but still playing with toys. People with low education or cultural quality, those who have People with rich experience in watching movies and well-educated people will definitely think this is a bad movie after watching it!"

His counterattack just appeared in the online column and was met with sarcasm.

"I think this kind of talent is the saddest thing. He even used the level of education to talk about it."

"The recent Transformers incident showed me the shamelessness and ignorance of some people."

"In a word, old man...this film was not made for you. If you say yes, it is estimated that very few people have watched the film."

"This old guy clearly jumped out of the hype. I heard that the treatment of film critics in recent years has been very poor..."

This controversy gradually shifted from the Internet to TV shows. The TV station’s "Allen Show" program invited the main members of Ryan’s most fanatical fan organization in North America, the female fan organization in the Upper East Side of New York. They Facing the TV camera, he directly declared war on Roger Albert.

"After all, the audience decides whether a movie is good or bad, and the box office is the most intuitive reaction."

This fan organization is clearly prepared, "What is the name...what Roger? Albert, how about we make a bet? If the global box office of "Transformers" is less than $600 million, we will start from Streaking from the east coast to the west coast, if the global box office is higher than 800 million US dollars, you will no longer publish film reviews, dare you?"

It doesn't matter whether Roger Albert is trying to attract eyeballs in a slamming way, or he really hates "Transformers." After Alan DeGeneres’ talk show was broadcast, he became the target of many media reporters, and even after someone blocked him, he directly threw this question in front of him.

It is a pity that Roger Albert did not write a response. He is not a fool, and his head has not been flooded to the point of agreeing to such an unreliable bet.

Perhaps, deep down in his heart, he also admitted that this film has many factors that make it a big box office.

After all, that horrible pre-sale box office number. Enough to overwhelm the final box office of quite a few Hollywood movies.

Although entering November, "Transformers" has launched a formal pre-sale activity around the world, but after all, it is difficult to count specific numbers overseas. However, in North America, Hollywood's base camp, related personnel from Ryan and other crew boarded the plane to Seoul At that time, the box office pre-sale number of "Transformers" was already close to 110 million U.S. dollars.

Of course, 3d and imax contributed more than half.

The negotiations between Disney and the North American Theater Alliance were all over in October, and 4,150 first-week theaters were won for "Transformers", including 3,500 3D screens and 220 imax theaters.

Another round of 3D and imax theater construction boom started in the summer. Provided more high-ticket screens for "Transformers".

On November 19, earlier than North America, the world premiere of "Transformers" officially kicked off at Seoul Tower.

At the end of the red carpet, there is a one-to-one ratio model of Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. After some South Korean stars walked on the red carpet, Bilt pulled the truck head and the Camaro sports car slowly to the reserved positions in front of their respective models, triggering a wave of cheers from fans.

The two cars stopped and Ryan and Alessandra Ambrosio stepped out of the Camaro sports car. Michael Bay and Josh Duhamel jumped out of the Bilt truck.

Almost all the reporters gathered around, and the South Korean goddesses were no longer bothered by the media.

If it hadn't been long ago, security personnel had surrounded the four people. Hundreds of reporters could almost completely submerge Ryan and the others with human waves. Even so, they still stayed by the car for ten minutes amidst flashing lights and unintelligible Korean.

It was not until the security personnel separated a road that Ryan walked into the interview area with Alexandra Ambrosio. The South Korean reporters who followed almost turned it into a vegetable market. With additional personnel to maintain order, this gradually calmed down.

Subsequently, the routine interview ceremony must be indispensable, and Ryan also answered a few questions through an interpreter.

However, after asking a few questions about "Transformers", South Korean reporters gradually shifted the topic to South Korean movies.

"Mr. Jenkins, it is said that you are the one who advocated the premiere of "Transformers" at the Seoul Tower. Why is this?"

Upon hearing the translation, Ryan had the urge to roll his eyes. It was obvious that South Korea had offered a sponsorship fee that made Disney's heartwarming, okay?

"Film is a pan-world entertainment method. The language of film can bring the distance between any country and nation closer."

Maybe it’s dissatisfied with Ryan’s obvious response, and a South Korean reporter asked, “In recent years, Korean movies have made great progress. I don’t know which Korean movie and which Korean movie star left you. deep impression?"

"This..." Ryan couldn't help frowning slightly. He seemed to have seen a few South Korean movies in his previous life, but he had no impression at all. "Sorry, I don't know much about South Korean movies and movie stars."

Although he was sorry in his words, he didn't mean to be sorry.

"But South Korea has already entered the North American market with movies and has achieved good results."

It seems that Ryan does not praise South Korean films, so these reporters will not give up. They continue to ask, "Do you think Korean films will have an impact on the domestic film industry in the United States?"

"Do you think it will?" Ryan asked rhetorically, and then said, "I won't answer questions that are not related to Transformers."

"Korean film just won the Venice Film Festival..."

"Li Bingxian appeared in many Hollywood movies. I heard that Disney offered him 15 million dollars in remuneration and invited him to star in "Thor"..."

"Can Korean female celebrities break into Hollywood? Will their entry into Hollywood affect the status of the first-line female celebrities in Hollywood?"

Listening to a more confident question, Ryan simply winked at his bodyguards, and then left the interview area under their cover, leaving only the voice of ‘Smecta’ behind.

"Why are they so confident?"

Alexandra Ambrosio, who has been holding Ryan, was very puzzled. When she walked into the Seoul Tower, she asked incomprehensibly, "Perhaps arrogance is more appropriate?"

"They are always confident."

When entering the elevator, Michael Bey followed from behind. After declining South Korean staff to enter, there were no outsiders in the elevator. If Bey exploded, it was even more polite, "You know, a South Korean reporter asked me just now," If their films beat Hollywood films on a global scale, will I come to South Korea to develop?"

"God..." Alexandra Ambrosio muttered, "Their thinking seems to be completely different from ordinary people."

"Ryan." Michael Bay looked at this side and asked curiously, "Aren't you always studying Eastern culture? Do you understand why?"

"I don't know much about this country, and I only know some superficial things." Ryan looked at the elevators showing the changing floors, and said simply, "A country in history is just a subject country, and it doesn't really belong to itself. A country with its own history and culture has suddenly become one of the countries with the best economic conditions in the Far East. Naturally, it wants to seek a higher status in other places, such as culture, politics, and history."

"But..." Ryan made a gesture that you understand. "They really don't have much to be proud of, so they tamper with history at will, wishing to recognize celebrities all over the world as descendants of South Koreans."

"I thought about it." Michael Bey suddenly realized, "You wrote "The World's Largest Country and Zenith Stars" a long time ago, and now South Korea seems to be in the state described in that article.

"In fact, South Korea is the center of the entire universe." Ryan deliberately joked, "In the eyes of some of their own people, that's probably the case, so they think their movies will definitely conquer the world."

"It's just a dog raised in the United States." Michael Bay said disdainfully, "The culture of its own is not even the mainstream culture of the Far East. What do they use to conquer the world?"

"Use plastic surgery techniques."

It seems that Alexandra Ambrosio has paid attention to the Japan-Korea online controversy some time ago, and he suddenly made a joke.

"South Korean artificial beauties look much more refined than you Ryan waited for Michael Bay to laugh and said, "Do you mind if I say that, Colin? "

"You said they are artificial beauties!"

The elevator door opened at this time, and Alexandra Ambrosio took the lead to go out.

In public, the three of them and later Josh Duhamel became standard Hollywood celebrities, showing their own elegance and etiquette, while maintaining a sufficient distance from South Korean people.

Facing an individual introduced by the organizer, Ryan only nodded politely. He only reached out and shook the other person when he heard an introduction with enough weight, even if the person in front of him was the chairman of the South Korean Film Association or the culture. The head of the department is no exception.

Although these South Korean filmmakers are full of inexplicable self-confidence, even in the next few years, the so-called rise of South Korean films can only prevail in South Korea, let alone enter the mainstream Western market, even in the film market of other countries in the Far East. When it was released, there was only one result.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is much easier for South Korea to conquer the world with plastic surgery techniques than with movies. (To be continued...) ()
