Laila habitually tapped the desktop with a pen: "There is no need to make any statement. Even if we blow the movie into a flower, not many people will believe it. What we have to do is to make more people pay attention to the matter itself. As long as one-tenth of these people are interested in movies and are willing to go into the cinema, then it is our success."
"But, what are we going to do?" Demi felt a mess in her mind, don't say come up with an idea, now I ask someone what her name is, I'm afraid she can't answer it.
"Now the noise is not big enough. Let's add more fire." Laila squinted and smiled slyly.
Demi looked at the hung-up phone blankly, and it took a long time to come back to her senses. She couldn't guess what the boss wanted to do. This is probably why she can only be a small secretary, but the boss can be a little younger than her but is already famous globally.
It was not until the next day, after receiving the latest newspaper, that she finally knew what method her boss was using to "add fire".
The headline of the entertainment section of the "Entertainer", an eye-catching headline reads like this-"Cooper, dare to make a bet?"
At the same time, the "Entertainer," whose sales volume has ranked among the five in the United States, is being held by countless people, and these people without exception see the massive line of headlines.
Laila now has no way to buy newspapers in France, but she can log on to the newspaper's news website through her computer. On the website, this line of topics still occupies the most conspicuous position.
In fact, the appearance of this website was also suggested to her grandfather. Perhaps this is not the first news website on the Internet, but it has a complete function, the easiest to read, and the most attractive to readers.
Not only can you see various news in more detail than in the newspapers, but you can also see many news that are not worth logging in to the newspapers but are still "interesting". Even readers can leave messages under the news and exchange ideas with each other. If there is a news report, you can even get a bonus of tens or even tens of thousands of dollars.
This kind of "advanced concept" allows news websites to have more loyal readers than newspapers, and it also will enable newspapers to have more sources of information than journalists and paparazzi, making it the most willing place for many young people who are not accustomed to reading newspapers to come to gossip.
Today, the website has the largest number of viewers since its opening, and it is the report that caused it.
The report was that Laila asked Anthony to the board, and the central idea was just one--"Cooper, if the box office of the second Halloween movie exceeds $100 million, you go and kiss the ass of the donkey. If it doesn't exceed $100 million, then change me. Dear. Would you dare to make this bet with me?"
It's not the $20 million that Cooper said with bold words, nor the $50 million speculated by Wall Street, which is slightly more optimistic, but a total of $100 million at the box office!
Almost everyone who saw the news took a breath at Laila's courage. You must know that it is a small-cost movie with a cost of only more than $2 million. Even with advertising, it cannot exceed $5 million.
And that movie has long been known to be a horror movie. How many horror movies have a box office of more than $100 million in history? I'm afraid you can count it with one hand, right?
On the comment page under the news, tens of thousands of comments have been accumulated in a short time.
The reader's point of view is also divided into two main types.
One is that Laila has a hothead or has been stimulated to talk nonsense. She was still young, and she had been repeatedly criticized and discredited, and she was so angry that she had lost her mind, so she made such a bet.
The cost of more than $2 million in exchange for $100 million in the box office can hardly be described as challenging, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is impossible to complete.
Some people took "The Blaire Witch" out and said, thinking that Laila can get a film with an investment of no more than 100,000 dollars at the box office of $300 million, so it shouldn't be that difficult to exchange more than $2 million for $100 million, right?
Unfortunately, there are only a few people who hold the latter view.
"A miracle is a miracle. If it always occurs, can it still be called a miracle? "The Blaire Witch" is a miracle. It is impossible to create such a miracle anymore."-Thumbs.
"She is still too young. A great movie has used up all her creativity, and it is impossible to find such a good idea without years of accumulation."-Uncle Tom.
"Laila is so beautiful, let that pesky Cooper kiss her ass!"-I love chocolate.
From the comments, it can be seen that most people are not very optimistic about Laila's bet this time, thinking that she is young and frivolous, and she needs to encounter setbacks to get back to her mood and go better.
But many young people don't care if she fails. They only see Laila daring to shout to a famous film critic and make such a sharp bet. It was so cool for them, and for this, they must also wave their flags for her.
Seeing the support left by these young people and the increasing number of clicks and comments, Laila closed the page with a smile.
Without looking at more things, she knew that she had succeeded in this fire. No matter whether you bet on Cooper or not, there will be more topics in the crowd.
Cooper was also the one who received the news the first time. He jumped up when he saw Laila's bet. It's just that this time he is not angry but happy.
"Hahaha! Too arrogant! You will pay the price for your arrogance!" The triumphant laughter went from the newspaper to the study, and it never stopped, making Cooper's family worried that he was crazy.
When a large group of reporters came to ask him for his response to Laila's bet, he nodded without hesitation: "It is good for young people now to have courage and ideals. If this is what she hopes, then, of course, I will promise her. I only hope that this setback can teach her a lesson. A successful director does not only have courage and confidence to succeed!"
If Laila were talking about betting $50 million at the box office, maybe he would hesitate. After all, many people are interested in her as a young director. Can it be $100 million? As long as the mind is not bad, everyone knows that it is absolutely impossible!
If horror movies are so good to shoot, and you can make dozens of times of profit by shooting casually, they will soon be badly shot by various film companies?
