As soon as the video leaked out, Martin and Anne immediately held a press conference. The latter's assistant Laura cried bitterly in front of the camera, crying that she accidentally lost the USB flash drive and hoped that the person who found it would return it.
The temporary press spokespersons hired by the two people called on all media not to broadcast such private videos with shady origins, and reserved the right to pursue relevant parties, etc.
Martin also posted on his blog, asking the media not to allow personal privacy to occupy public resources.
Keep your posture straight.
A large number of netizens crowded into his blog area and left various comments.
No matter black or red, it will attract countless eyeballs.
Martin's blog was so crowded that it crashed.
How could the entertainment media heed the call? The louder the call, the more willing they are to spread it.
In just over a day, Martin and Anne’s selfie shot to the top of Google search terms.
People have an inexplicable thirst for knowledge about taboo things.
Especially celebrity privacy.
Many people who did not know Martin before also learned about Martin through the "gate incident" and the currently released "The Mountain Has Eyes".
There are many die-hard supporters of Martin and Anne, and some people organized "spontaneously" to protest in front of the media company where the selfie video was repeatedly played.
Correspondingly, there was another big wave of news and traffic.
A large number of passers-by and spectators entered the theater and donated generously to "The Mountain Has Eyes".
In a short period of time, Martin's attention was comparable to that of a Hollywood star's new movie.
As long as a small part of it is converted into box office, all beneficiaries, including him, can laugh.
Martin subsequently gave interviews to many television stations, calling for the protection of celebrity privacy, and received responses from many celebrities.
Selfie Gate marketing investment is limited, but the results are amazing.
This event could even change the industry.
After Paris Hilton, it was further proof that another path could lead to success.
A small number of celebrities with particularly sensitive senses of smell have also noticed this.
…………
Every time during festivals such as Halloween and Valentine's Day, celebrities, celebrities and even politicians will come out to show off and gain attention to show their presence.
Although the show of affection dies quickly, there are always a large number of celebrities rushing to show off.
"Rivals" is scheduled to be released on Valentine's Day. The leading actor Will Smith also sent a gift to his wife Jada, and asked the crew to film it and distribute it to various entertainment media. In order to grab entertainment headlines, he also sent a gift to his wife Jada before the release. Grab some heat.
But there are only a few followers, and all the attention of the melon-eaters has been snatched away by the so-called selfie video.
In terms of fame, Martin and Anne are far behind the Will-Smiths.
But it cannot stop the people's enthusiasm for gossip and their strong desire to peek into the privacy of celebrities.
In the living room of the mansion, Jada Smith changed several entertainment stations one after another. She was quite helpless: "They are all reporting on the crappy things about Martin Davis and Anne Hathaway."
She looked at Will Smith on the other side: "The two little stars stole our limelight."
Will shook his two provocative ears: "It's not us, they stole everyone's limelight on Valentine's Day."
Jada is not an open-minded person and couldn't help but say: "Why is it not ML's video that came out!"
Will is a very smart black man and has been working in the industry for many years. It is not difficult to see the problem: "It is probably deliberately released. "The Mountain Has Eyes" starring Martin is currently in theaters."
Jada was surprised: "Released on purpose? They have no shame! What a couple!"
She took the laptop next to her and opened the web browser. Martin and Annie's selfie was ranked first on Google's hot search keywords. You can click on it to see related videos.
After reading it again carefully, Jada thought her husband's words made sense: "There were no revealing scenes. All we talked about was "The Mountain Has Eyes", using the guise of being afraid to gain popularity..."
Thinking of the news he released at the same time, but a little guy stole the limelight, Will Smith cursed: "They are all crazy! The industry is getting more and more difficult, and these newcomers dare to use any bad means!"
As he spoke, he unconsciously looked at Jada. When his popularity becomes unbearable in the future, how about...
Jada had an unspeakable tacit understanding with him, and stood up immediately: "Asshole, don't even think about it!"
Will Smith knows that people can't stay popular forever, there will always be a day of bad luck.
At that time, I will definitely find another way and find a way to attract attention.
Jada is disgusted with the tape?
Will suddenly comes up with an idea, what about an open marriage with Jada? Think about it, the two of them sat on a talk show, without even needing a host, and talked "openly and honestly" about their open marriage life and their respective plans. The media and the public must be crazy about it.
When you are a star, your face doesn't matter.
Look at what this little guy Martin Davis has done. As an old man in the industry, Will Smith admires him a little.
This year's Valentine's Day is different from the past. In addition to traditional romance movies, many people choose to watch the horror action movie "The Mountain Has Eyes."
Will Smith's appeal is undoubted, and the King of History these days is synonymous with the box office.
"Rivals" earned a box office of US$43.14 million during the three-day Valentine's Day weekend in North America. It received an A rating from the CS live audience and a box office estimate of US$170 million in North America.
While winning the box office chart, it fully proved one thing.
Your Emperor is infinitely arrogant!
As expected, "The Mountain Has Eyes" fell to second place on the box office list. However, under the strong stimulation of the selfie scandal in mid-week, there was no big box office decline in the second week that horror movies usually have. The decline in the next weekend was controlled to five Spending Valentine's Day within 18.1 million US dollars.
Counting the previous four working days, the North American box office totaled US$59.11 million.
Warner Bros. immediately negotiated a new distribution agreement with theaters and requested to extend the theater screening time of "The Mountain Has Eyes" so that the North American box office can pass the $100 million line over time.
Such a screening strategy will not bring more box office revenue to the distributor and producer.
However, films with a box office of over 100 million in North America are treated completely differently in the TV and DVD markets.
In this era, the distribution company at the top of the Hollywood industry chain does not just take a commission from the box office when distributing films, but takes a commission from all copyrights.
In addition, it will take some time for the producer to get the money back from the publisher.
"The payment is related to the preparation of "Wanted"." Martin stood on the top floor of the North Hollywood apartment, admiring the downstairs as if he were watching a big show, and said to Louise on the phone: "Push more."
Louise said: "Don't worry, with the investment agreement, we can use the return as guarantee to get a bank loan." She added: "My people have communicated with Sophia and Vincent."
Martin is far behind Louise in actual project planning: "You think more comprehensively than I do."
Louise asked: "So, my Valentine's Day gift is a stone clown carving modeled after you? You really mean it!"
Martin recently said smoothly: "That is the work of the master sculptor Lily Carter, a masterpiece of art!"
"Very good!" Louise couldn't help laughing: "Lily Carter, a middle school student from Marietta, Atlanta, do you want me to bring her to Los Angeles? Huh?"
Martin then remembered that Louise and Kelly had mailed Lily a gift in return.
There is no way, there are too many gifts and letters sent out, and sometimes my memory is confused.
Martin felt that he had to learn a new course - time management.
Louise said a few more words and hung up the phone on her own initiative.
Martin saw Bruce looking through a telescope and asked, "Are there any new discoveries?"
These two shameless bastards watched the paparazzi surrounding the apartment as if they were watching a play, looking for fun in it.
Old Bu pointed to the parking lot: "There are two paparazzi, one male and one female. They may have gotten some information each. They started having sex in the car while exchanging information. It just ended now."
Martin picked up the binoculars and could only see the men and women getting out of the car adjusting their clothes. He regretted missing hundreds of millions and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
He suggested: "Shall we install surveillance in the parking lot? There are a lot of paparazzi recently, and the waistband of this business is similar to that of an actor."
Bruce was helpless: "Are you addicted to secret photography?"
Martin said deliberately: "It's actually very interesting. You can try to find Jin."
Bruce didn't want to mention Jin, mainly because when it came to Jin's sister, the rotten Martin was full of shit, wondering how he could do such rotten things as a civilized man.
He turned to ask Martin: "Aren't you going to give Anne a test of love?"
"How about you have some humanity?" Martin sneered at Bruce's inappropriate words and deeds: "Valentine's Day has just passed, and you want me to sing a happy breakup with others? Where's the morality? Where's the quality?"
Bruce didn't bother to refute. Based on his judgment over the years, Anne could not pass the test and said, "Tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars in jade in exchange for a box of chocolates worth 99 US dollars."
"Just give it away." Martin still had some magnanimity: "Am I going to ask for it back?"
The gifts he gave out were all real.
For example, crocodile tooth pendants, horn carvings and stone carvings are never fake.
After the first week's box office of "The Mountain Has Eyes" was released, in order to show his sincerity, Wu Maoting directly transported a lot of jade by air transport, half of which was sold and half given to Martin.
Martin was not polite and accepted it directly.
The one given to Anne Hathaway was one of the pretty good jade plaques.
Martin asked Bruce: "Take two dollars and give them to Kim and her sister."
"I'm giving it to Jin." Bruce emphasized: "As for who Jin is giving it to, I don't care."
Martin's phone rang at this time, and when he took it out, he found that it was a call from Angelina Jolie.
"Hi, Angie." He answered the phone: "Why did you suddenly remember to call me?"
Julie said: "I have officially signed a contract with the crew of "Wanted". You are the initiator of the project. I would like to treat you to dinner to express my gratitude."
Martin was curious, why did Julie suddenly ask him out? He responded: "No problem."
Bruce said: "You pick up Julie and get rid of Annie, perfect."
Martin directly gave him a middle finger: "I will not be the one who betrays this love."
