On March 25, during the day, the commercial street near Santa Monica Square.

The streets are full of traffic and people are weaving, and the first-line brand shops on both sides are dazzling, very rich in money.

As the most prosperous pedestrian street in Los Angeles, here is a shopping paradise for women.

At this moment, the third floor of a commercial building.

Mel Gibson was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, with a newspaper spread out on the table, the headline of which was particularly striking.

””Micro Love” has reached the top box office champion of the week, and director Lehmann's new work is like a rainbow.”

It makes people feel dazzling.

Boom boom boom.

The door was knocked, and when Mel Gibson turned around, his assistant broke in breathlessly.

”Boss, just called from the 20th Century Fox, saying that next week, our movies will be reduced in theaters and schedules.”

”Well, I got it.”

”Do you want to put a little pressure?” the assistant suggested.

”There are more than a dozen movies in the U.S. that are going to be released in a month. Is it possible to stop others from showing it? We have been fishing for more than half a month, so we must give others a chance.”

Mel Gibson looked as usual, with a faint smile on his lips, ”Remember to notify Fox and remind them to promote funding.”

Said so, but in my heart I can't wait to get rid of other movies.

Where can I make money?

After all these years, I have finally released a hit. I just thought about making a big profit. Whoever thought that Lehman would come up with a love-themed movie, and in a blink of an eye, most of the market’s scourge was gone.

At the end of last year, ”Chain Saw” was only released, and the profits were soft.Now in the March off-season, another one suddenly appeared.

So fast, hurry to reincarnate.

Mel Gibson was melancholy and aggrieved.

Looking at the good situation, ”The Passion of the Christ” rushed all the way to the 200 million box office mark. It was suddenly ambushed and pulled down halfway, and now it has to shrink the theater.

You must know that ”The Passion of the Christ” was produced by 20th Century Fox, but his Aiken studio did not invest money in it. It was another more serious collaborative shooting. The entire film was invested 25 million US dollars.To put it bluntly, when a group of people agreed to shoot such a subject, they were so guilty that they didn't dare to make a big deal at all.

After all, if the audience does not buy it, it will not lose too much, at least keep the word of mouth, and use it to redeem the prize-just like ”Brave Heart”.

In short, the market is not good, the awards come together.

However, Mel Jebson is a discerning director.

Perhaps it was the release evaluation of ”Brave Heart” that woke him up, and he realized some tricks in filming.

So the religious film that was originally thinking about going to the Oscars and exploring in depth has become a bloody cult film covered in a gimmick.

Then, when the movie was released, there were two things he didn't expect.

1. The audience scolded very harshly, even if they were shooting Jesus, they would scold them;

Second, the more fierce the scolding, the greater the controversy, and the results are actually good, which is considered to be a bad fight.

Moreover, Mel Gibson is not a director who takes these into account too much, so he scolds him. At least, some people in the industry have rated him fairly well. Many film critics regard money and the face of dealings with him in the past. If you can blow it, you won't say that public opinion has collapsed.

Just as he was sitting in the company, watching the data rise and excited, ”Micro Love” was released.

Originally, he hadn't put this movie or didn't think there is any overlap between the theme of love and his work. The audiences are different, so it's not enough to make money for each.

It's a pity that too many viewers are disappointed by this schedule, and the reality is that the face is fast.

It took only 4 days to directly lock the weekly box office champion, or take it from the ”Passion of the Christ”.
