Chapter 479: Return

Today's Lincoln Center is crowded with people. Countless movie fans and reporters gather in front of the New York State Theater. Every time a star walks on the red carpet, there will always be cheers.

"There are so many people here today."

Standing in the media area, Morrison Cole, a reporter from The New York Times, told Amanda Djoko, a New York Post reporter next to him, that “there are at least a few thousand movie fans.”

Amanda Djoko threw the brown ponytail behind her shoulders and said, "This is still for safety reasons. Didn't you see it when you came in? There are tens of thousands of people gathered outside the Lincoln Center for the Arts. But they are all with slogans supporting Murphy Stanton."

"Twentieth Century Fox is very smart." Morrison Cole asked, "Amanda, the New York Post and Twentieth Century Fox are also part of News Corp. Any inside information?"

Amanda Djoko shook her head, "I am not very clear about the specifics, but the newspaper has received instructions from the group company, let us focus on following up this incident."

They are all veteran reporters who have been engaged in the news industry for many years. Even without any factual basis, sometimes they can feel that there is a certain connection behind some hot news events. When you can't see the truth behind the scenes, you just need to see who is it. The real beneficiaries of the incident can be guessed somewhat.

There is no doubt that "The Wolf of Wall Street" and Murphy Stanton are the biggest beneficiaries of this "Investigation Gate", especially the film "The Wolf of Wall Street". It has attracted the attention of more than 500 media from all over the world, and it has benefited a lot.

But this kind of thing will only linger in people's hearts. Neither Morrison Cole nor Amanda Djoko will easily say it. Now the public opinion in the United States is on the side of Murphy Stanton. It is undoubtedly very unwise to contradict mainstream public opinion.

"The North American box office or even overseas box office of "The Wolf of Wall Street" shouldn't be a problem."

Watching a black Bentley car parked in front of the red carpet, Amanda Djoko said, "I just don't know that I can get hundreds of millions of dollars in the end."

Morrison Cole nodded and said, "Murphy Stanton is a natural winner."

"Is there a winner born?" Amanda Djoko did not agree with Morrison Cole, watching Murphy Stanton lead his beautiful and tall girlfriend onto the red carpet, and said, "All this , It's all the result of his hard work."

Morrison Cole smiled and didn't speak any more. As Murphy Stanton and Gal Gadot got closer and closer, the media area crowded with hundreds of people boiled like a pot, and he also raised it. The camera is in the middle, planning to take photos of the most famous couple in the United States in the last half month.

These two people walked the red carpet much faster than the average star, and soon walked into the interview area. Morrison Cole and Amanda Djoko, like other reporters, flocked to the vicinity of these two people. , Even if you can't squeeze around them, you still have to listen to what they say.

"Quiet! Quiet!"

A staff member behind Murphy kept shouting loudly in order to maintain order, and four bodyguards also formed a human wall to keep Murphy and Gal Gadot behind.

However, the number of reporters coming today was too much, and the scene seemed a little chaotic. After a while, it was a little quieter.

With the support of the staff, some reporters finally asked questions in order.

"Director Stanton, I'm Morrison Cole from The New York Times."

Taking advantage of the chaos, Morrison Cole squeezed to the front, separated the security personnel and Murphy's bodyguard, and asked loudly, "What do you think about the illegal investigation of you by the Los Angeles police?"

Hearing this question, Murphy groaned a little, and said loudly, “It made me understand one thing. The world is not as clean as I thought, but only by knowing the ugliness can I better understand what is beautiful and also Cherish the beauty more."

Regarding the question of the'investigation gate', Murphy answered very sharply. This is not the opposite of the Pacific Ocean where humility and moderation are emphasized. People are bullied to the head, and they have to say something indifferent cheerfully, so that they will only be considered. It's a soft guy, and there will be more people who come to ask for trouble in the back.

Hollywood and even any business circle are full of intriguing competition. Those who want to get involved in it are impossible to be a white saint, nor can they completely avoid being used to make articles about some things they have done. When someone makes an article, be tough. Going back to Zhiding and being a vacant saint will bring about completely different results.

The latter is undoubtedly more likely to cause more trouble than the former.

"Murphy, I'm Emile Ferrara from the Los Angeles Times."

A female reporter tried her best to move the recording pen closer to Murphy and asked, "The pre-sale of The Wolf of Wall Street reached 27.2 million US dollars, setting a pre-sale record for an R-rated film. What do you think?"

"Thank you for the support of the audience." Murphy said solemnly, "I will work harder to make a movie you like."

As of noon today, "The Wolf of Wall Street" has sold $27.2 million in advance ticket sales for the first weekend of the movie. In other words, in any case, the film's first weekend box office cannot be lower than this number.

This can be said to be the most direct feedback from the ‘investigation gate’, and some will only be revealed later.

For example, due to the large scale of the film and the relatively small audience of the subject matter, the number of theaters that Fox contacted in the twentieth century was only 3,560. The number of theaters showing "The Wolf of Wall Street" has been added to the line. Although the total number has not exceeded the 4000 mark, there are still 3950.

This is already the highest number of premiere theaters that R-rated films can get recently.

After accepting the reporter’s interview, and then some routine activities, after the crew took a group photo, Murphy and Robert Downey Jr., Jonah Hill, James Franco and Seth Rogen together Walk inside the New York State Theater.

"Our business, you helped so much."

James Franco sighed and said to Murphy, "What about you, we can't help except to say something that is in line with you."

Murphy patted his shoulder lightly. "We don't need to say these extravagant words between us."

"That's right." Jonah Hill answered, "I can't help much with Murphy, but as long as he needs it, I belong to him!"

"Fuck you!" Robert Downey Jr. gave Jonah Hill a little lightly. "What does Murphy want you to do with this fat?"

Seth Logan deliberately said, "You can squeeze oil."

Murphy and these people burst into laughter at the same time. While laughing, they also walked into the front hall of the New York State Theater, where many people had gathered.

"What are you laughing about, so happy?" Carla Firth and Megan Ellison walked over together, "Don't you share it?"

Jonah Hill shook his head hurriedly, "No, absolutely not, this is not something that can be shared."

He changed into a mysterious tone, "This is the secret of Stanton's party members!"

"Do you still have secrets?" Megan Ellison leaned over and said, "Don't tell me now, waiting for the book to be published in the future?"

"This is a good idea." Jonah Hill immediately widened his eyes. "In the future, I can put..."

Pointing to Murphy and James Franco, he said, "Write your affairs in the book, and my pension will be taken care of."

Several people laughed again. After the laugh, they gradually dispersed. Megan Ellison said a few words to Murphy and was about to leave. Murphy suddenly thought of something and stopped her.

"Wait, Megan."

Hearing Murphy's words, Megan Ellison stopped, turned back and asked, "Is there anything else, Murphy?"

In fact, she really wanted Murphy to trouble herself if something happened. This meant that she could continue to cooperate in the future.

Fools don’t want to cooperate with Murphy Stanton. If you look at the pre-sale of The Wolf of Wall Street, it almost indicates that the film will be successful. The only question is how much profit.

"Introduce someone to you." Murphy first said to Megan Ellison, and then to Gal Gadot, "Help me call Jessica Chastain."

He just saw a red-haired Jessica Chastain, not far from the left. He probably wanted to come over to say hello to him, and he waited there when he saw someone next to him.

Gal Gadot nodded, walked a few steps to Jessica Chastain's side, and murmured, Jessica Chastain followed her back.

"Jesse, introduce a friend to you." Murphy didn't bother and said directly, "This is Meghan Ellison. Despite her young age, she is a very good film investor."

Hearing Murphy's words, Jessica Chastain immediately understood that it was Murphy who was specifically helping her.

Murphy also introduced Megan Ellison, "This is Jessica Chastain, who was my assistant at the beginning, a very good actress."

The two women greeted each other, and Megan Ellison said, "I know you. You starred in Murphy's "Planet of Horror."

Jessica Chastain helped, and Murphy will naturally not forget that he has an excellent reputation in this area, which is why Jessica Chastain turned to him because she knows what she can do. In exchange for a certain return.

Murphy said to Megan Ellison, "I heard that you are going to invest in several projects. If you have a suitable role, don't forget Jesse."

Megan Ellison smiled, "No problem."

Jessica Chastain said quickly, "Thank you."

Murphy nodded to Jessica Chastain and said, "It's almost time, let's go in."

The screening of "The Wolf of Wall Street" is about to begin.
