I Am a Taoist Priest in Hollywood

Chapter 649 Pirates of the Caribbean

Chu Feng said: "The rich man you can't handle in three months, you won't be able to increase much with more time, just three months."

Hunter was helpless, it was the first time he had encountered such a guest.

But he is a customer, and he is so powerful, what can he do, in the end he can only agree unwillingly.

The two parties signed the contract again.

Then, Chu Feng took the Zhuyan Dan back.

Three days before the shooting, he will send three Zhuyan Dans to give them a final check.

This is also what Hunter asked for.

He was afraid that if the three Zhuyan Pills were placed in their hands, they would not be able to hold back their greed and make some unwise choices.

It is better to let Zhuyan Dan be in Chu Feng's hands.

Chu Feng naturally doesn't care about this, so let him go.

The time has come to August unknowingly.

During this period, Chu Feng made a few more shots, but all of them were petty, and only earned 3,000 merit points in total.

Now that it's August, the release of "Pearl Harbor" is getting closer and closer.

The propaganda of "Pearl Harbor" has already been overwhelming.

After all, this is a big production with an investment of more than 100 million yuan, such as 287, why not step up publicity.

Jerry Bruckheimer also frequently appeared in various venues.

Cocktail party, movie viewing party, TV station.

Every time, he would hear the word "Congratulations".

Those people are congratulating him, "Pearl Harbor" will once again be a great success.

Bruckheimer would politely thank him every time, but deep down in his heart, he couldn't be happy.

Although he also felt that his failure might be small, he would not ignore Chu Feng's words no matter what.

In his heart, he was ready to fail.

Finally, the day of August 10 arrived.

At the grand premiere, "Pearl Harbor" was officially released.

Bruckheimer also stayed until the early hours of the morning until the box office statistics of the day came out.

Finally, he got a number.

It grossed $11.33 million on the first day.

Seeing this number, Bruckheimer raised his eyebrows and felt that it was not bad.

Although there are only more than 10 million, this is the first day.

In the next two days, it should be higher.

Sure enough, as Bruckheimer had predicted, the second and third days were even higher at the box office.

The three-day box office totaled more than $40 million.

Seeing this number, Bruckheimer was extremely excited and felt that Chu Feng's divination might be wrong.

But when the fourth day came, reality slapped Bruckheimer hard.

On the fourth day, the box office plummeted, and all of a sudden, there were only more than 5 million US dollars left.

Not only that, the fifth day, the sixth day, the box office is getting worse day by day.

Finally, a week later, Pearl Harbor's first-week box office was released, and it was only more than 70 million US dollars.

By the end of the second week, Pearl Harbor struggled past the $100 million mark.

Switch to other films, over 100 million US dollars, it is already a victory.

But "Pearl Harbor" production and promotion, a total of 240 million US dollars.

$100 million, less than half of the cost.

And, the box office is still getting worse day by day.

By this time, Bruckheimer didn't know where "Pearl Harbor" had been a complete failure.

"Sure enough, Chu Tianshi is Chu Tianshi, and what he said will definitely not be wrong.

Bruckheimer looked at the box office statistics in front of him and sighed in his heart.

"Jerry, don't take it to heart."

"My dear, I believe that you will soon achieve greater success. 39

"You're not going to be knocked down by a temporary loss.

"Who doesn't fail, no one succeeds all the time.

"I'm sure you'll have more success soon."

...(adfd)...

People around him came to comfort Bruckheimer, hoping that he would be too sad and sad.

However, Bruckheimer had already made preparations in his heart. Although he could not help feeling a little sad after he really failed, it was much better than expected.

He himself did not expect that in the face of such a big failure, he would be so calm.

He knew that it was all thanks to Chu Feng.

It was with Chu Feng's reminder that he would prepare himself mentally in advance.

Bruckheimer remembered another sentence Chu Feng said to him.

"If you fail at sea, you will succeed at sea.

Bruckheimer is about to go out to sea, and he wants to know how to succeed in the sea again.

But just as he was about to go to sea, his wife came over.

"Honey, let's take the kids to Disneyland, we haven't been in a long time."5

Bruckheimer knew that she wanted to soothe her mood and let the happiness of her family dilute the haze in her heart.

"My dear, I'm really fine. I've already prepared myself mentally. I'm not as vulnerable as you think."

Bruckheimer explained with tears in his eyes.

But Mrs. Brooke said nothing, just fixed her eyes on him.

Bruckheimer was quickly defeated: "Well, you won, we'll go to Disneyland tomorrow."5

Mrs. Brooke smiled when she heard the words: "Okay, I'll clean up now.

Bruckheimer shook his head and watched his wife leave, feeling helpless and moved.

I really don't feel so uncomfortable, why no one believes it.

The next day, the Bruckheimer family appeared at Disneyland.

Seeing his son and his wife having so much fun, the last bit of loss in his heart disappeared.

While playing, they came to another project.

"Dad, I'm going to play this. 35

"Okay, let's go to the queue. 35

Bruckheimer pulled his son behind the crowd.

While waiting, his eyes fell on the project's name: "Pirates of the Caribbean. 99

Bruckheimer read it out softly, and then his eyes turned to other places.

But as soon as he turned away, a light flashed in his mind.

Chu Feng's words echoed in his mind again: "If you fail in the sea, you will succeed in the sea.

"Sea, pirates, sea, pirates?"

"Is it this?

Bruckheimer was stunned for a moment, and the image of pirates, as well as stories and legends related to pirates, began to appear in his mind unconsciously.

The 1970s and 1980s were the golden age of pirate movies.

But by now, pirate movies are long gone.

In recent years, not even one.
