Chapter 145 Fans need management(1/2)
At the end of the film, the twins Carly and Nick narrowly escaped death and defeated the murderous twins with difficulty.
There was warm applause.
Susan opened her arms and asked all the crew to stand up.
Martin and others turned around and faced the audience and applauded.
When the first movie in his life was released, Zomi was very excited and came over to hug Martin: "I still can't believe it, this is true!"
Martin smiled and said: "Man, if there is a first part, there will be a second part!"
Zomi was very happy and turned around to hug other crew members.
Martin high-fived Susan and fist-bumped with Mene.
Mene said: "I died miserably. I was stabbed to death by big scissors. There was not even a frontal view of me when I died."
Martin used his strength and punched his fist hard: "You are the most popular person in the whole crew except Paris."
Mene smiled cheerfully. Regardless of his performance as an actor, at least his value in the club will rise a lot.
Susan took the cast and crew to the small stage in front of the screen for the curtain call.
This concludes the premiere.
Martin followed the crew through the side door and entered the adjacent lounge.
The crew prepared champagne.
Everyone raised a toast to celebrate the successful premiere of the film.
Martin glanced at Eliza. She didn't drink alcohol, she drank pure natural juice.
Thomas came over at this time and reminded: "Let's go together later."
Martin knew he had something to say: "No problem."
The atmosphere on the set was pretty good. Even Zomi and Susan, who were worried about their grades, had smiles on their faces.
The specific results will not be known until the film is released on a large scale, but the response to tonight's premiere was acceptable.
Not only did the audience not laugh or leave early, but when Paris was made into a wax figure, the atmosphere was so hot that it almost exploded.
Susan was also keenly aware of this. Without waiting until tomorrow, she went to Parker, the production manager for publicity, and said, "Continue to work hard on Paris."
For many films, as long as one point appeals to the audience's appetite, the box office will be much better.33

After the premiere, people who supported Martin, including Rachel, Emily, Jessica and Phoebe, came out of the theater and did not disperse immediately.
Jessica suggested: "It's not easy for us to get together through Martin. Let's go have a drink together?"
Rachel looked at the time: "It's better not to go back too late, the public security is not good recently."
Emily said: "Martin's role is very good, isn't it? Please go back and say more favorable things about Martin on your blogs and movie websites!"
Phoebe reminds: "IMDB can give scores."
The boy with freckles on his face said: "Martin plays a good role and looks good. The only pity is that he is not the protagonist."
Another person said: "The male lead is second only to the heroine."
Rachel raised her voice: "Don't forget to rate and leave a message on Martin's blog. If you have a blog, remember to write a special blog post. Also, please promote this film to people around you."
Others responded one after another.
Fans are a very peculiar existence. Even if there is no benefit to themselves and it is difficult for outsiders to understand some things, they will still do them enthusiastically.
Emily and Jessica reminded loudly: "Let's go for it with Martin!"
Rachel and others also shouted: "Come on!"

For every large-scale movie premiere, reporters and paparazzi are indispensable.
Especially in a place like Los Angeles, in addition to reporters working for various media companies, there are also a large number of wild paparazzi, who like to chase hot spots.
The main actors of the crew came near the exit. Parker left first and then called to say that a large number of reporters had gathered outside.
Susan turned to look at Mene: "Go and make more news."
Mene walked towards the gate, looking back three times: "Am I going to be like Diana?"
Martin encouraged: "You are the focus now, the only star among us, go ahead and take all the firepower away."
"I'm coming!" Mene opened his arms and walked out of the theater exit, shouting: "Where's the flashlight? Turn it on!"
At this moment, the door was as bright as day, and Mene was like a superstar.
Then a reporter asked loudly: "Mene, there are rumors that you and Paris took that kind of video, is it true?"
Under the protection of theater security, Menei squeezed towards the vehicle, not forgetting to say ambiguously: "What video? I can't remember clearly."
Another reporter shouted: "When Paris is released from prison, will you pick her up?"
Mene was deeply in love: "I will go see her, I love her!"
Both parties need each other and are very cooperative.
Mene got into the car, and a large number of paparazzi chased him.
Looking at the whole of Los Angeles, Uncle Mene is definitely a hot spot because of his close relationship with Paris Hilton.
Others came out of the theater one after another, got in their cars and left.
Thomas got into Martin's car.
Bruce drove out of an intersection and reminded: "There are two motorcycles following."
Thomas looked back: "It's okay, wild paparazzi."
Martin laughed: "I started to be followed and photographed too."
"Being a star, you have to get used to this." Thomas said: "Since you stand up and become a public figure, don't be afraid of the paparazzi. Not only paparazzi need stars, but stars also need paparazzi."
Martin thought of the information leaked by Kardashian: "Paris often has people call the paparazzi to expose information about herself."
Thomas said seriously: "This is worth learning."
Martin is very conscious: "Don't worry, I will fully cooperate if needed."
"The newspaper space I bought will wait until the first week's box office is released, and then I will decide how to publish the news." Thomas followed Martin's instructions and made two preparations: "The box office is not high, you are just a supporting role. The box office is good, you are
Protagonist."
Martin said: "There's no rush for this."
As far as actors are concerned, Eliza benefits the most from success, and the same goes for failure.
Thomas said another thing: "Today you have met your fan group. There are not many people at the moment. Your blog is mainly used as a gathering place."
Martin nodded: "Rachel is the leading organizer?"
Thomas remembers this person: "She has a certain appeal. Martin, you need an assistant who specializes in managing the blog and communicating with the fan group, but of course not now."
Martin said matter-of-factly: "You are responsible for it now."
Thomas opened his mouth and could only respond: "I'll deal with it for now."
Martin thought more: "Pay more attention to the fans section on the blog, and communicate in time if you have any questions..."
Thomas thought to himself, why is it all my business? But then he thought, as long as "Horror House of Wax Museum" and "The Hills Have Eyes" do well at the box office, Martin will be able to have a separate office, and then an assistant will be sent to the mailroom.
Martin's words continued: "Is there a suitable company? I want to build an official fan website. They will be responsible for the backend maintenance for the time being, and will be handed over to a professional team to take care of it later."
Thomas said: "You are really thinking too far, the blog is enough for the time being."
Martin smiled: "We find the right company, the company gives us a plan, we confirm the plan, and then they produce it. It all takes time. If it goes slower, maybe "The Mountain Has Eyes" will be released."
Fans need management.
Thomas said: "I'll find someone to ask."
Martin will not rely solely on his agent. He will ask Louise later.
Like an accountant, he declined the candidate recommended by Thomas.
At this stage, Martin and Thomas have the same interests and can basically work together.
Who can guarantee the future?
Bruce drove to Century City and dropped Thomas off.
Martin called Louise, who was going to have a late night chat with Kate Winslet, so he asked him to return to North Hollywood.
Kate wants to win awards. Louise has been a producer in Hollywood for many years, so she naturally has certain connections and energy.
Martin knows very well that film quality, acting skills and roles are often not the deciding factors for Oscar awards.
The most recent tragedy was just a few years ago, and "Shakespeare in Love" was relatively easy to say, but the queen did not know how much she had to pay.
The paparazzi on two motorcycles followed Martin to his North Hollywood apartment.
