"Miss Kayla Knightley, many movie fans comment on your character being dispensable in Pirates of the Caribbean. What do you think?"

"The character Elizabeth Swan is more like a supporting actress than a leading actress. Is this the original setting of the crew?"

"Kaila, there are rumors that you are dissatisfied with the scenes in the film. Is this true?"

"It is said that because of the imbalance in the role, you had a conflict with Matthew Horner and were about to break up?"

On Sunday morning, Keira Knightley attended an event at the Los Angeles Heights Business Center and was surrounded by reporters when she came out.

Faced with the various questions thrown by the reporter, Kayla Knightley was not interested in answering them. She had a stern face and got into the car with the support of security personnel.

"Kayla..." Her agent James Bairnst turned around from the co-pilot and said, "You need exposure now, be friendly to journalists."

Kayla Knightley pouted, "How can I be friendly when they ask such boring questions?"

Since the release of "Pirates of the Caribbean", although her fame has increased, many boring questions about Elizabeth Swan have also appeared. A heroine is regarded as a supporting actress, which is difficult for anyone to accept.

James Bairnst said at this time, "Don't worry about these things, the success of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is inevitable. You will definitely be able to enter the second line, and this is the most important thing."

Kayla Knightley remained silent.

"Yesterday's Pirates of the Caribbean's single-day box office was as high as $23.8 million!" James Bairnste seemed very excited. "In addition to the $22.2 million on Friday, the North American box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" will be $46 million in just two days. As long as nothing unexpected happens, the North American box office in three days this weekend will definitely exceed $60 million!"

He emphasized, "This is the first weekend data that only a big hit movie will have! Kaila, don't worry about those, you're really famous, this is the most important thing!"

Kayla Knightley looked at James Bairnst and said, "These commercial entertainment movies do not respect women at all!"

James Bairnst smiled but did not respond. In today's mainstream Hollywood commercial films, the greatest significance of the existence of female characters is that they are vases. If the producer of the film was him, it would not highlight the role of Elizabeth Swan.

"I've had enough of commercial movies!" Kayla Knightley seemed to say it to herself, and she seemed to be telling James Bairnst, "First it was "Pirates of the Caribbean" and then "King Arthur". I've taken on two commercial blockbusters in a row, so I'll take on more literary and artistic productions."

James Baynes's feature head, "This is also the route I plan for you. Even if Elizabeth Swan's role is not as good as Captain Jack Sparrow and Will Turner, it can also confirm your business appeal. There are two commercial productions in the short term. It is very important that we hone our acting skills and accumulate reputation in art films."

Kayla Knightley knew very well that this was also a relatively orthodox road.

"I'm coordinating with the crew and Helen Herman..." James Bairnst said at this time, "Jerry Brookheimer's meaning, Disney Pictures will announce the production sequel of "Pirates of the Caribbean" next week. Then you move to Matthew's home, let the relevant news explode and create hot events to promote the film's next weekend box office and subsequently maintain a stable box office trend. This is also beneficial to promoting the new film "King Arthur"!"

"I get it." Kayla Knightley didn't say much.

This was the agreement signed by both parties, and she also knew that Matthew had prepared a separate room for her.

The so-called cohabitation is nothing more than a nominal cohabitation created for the sake of hype.

The first week of Pirates of the Caribbean continues. Although it is not as big as last year's Spider-Man, it has attracted enough viewers.

Sunday's day passed quickly, and night followed. The number of viewers in popular theaters with good locations did not decrease at all, most of them were for "Pirates of the Caribbean".

Generally speaking, due to the next day of work, the audience in the theater will be significantly reduced on Sunday night than on Saturday night, but Alexander Djokav found that the Imperial Entertainment Cinema where he is located has a limited number of audiences tonight than last night.

Alexander Djokaft asked more than 20 viewers and asked, more than 80% of them came to watch "Pirates of the Caribbean".

He is a staff member of an investigation agency hired by Disney Pictures, mainly to investigate the specific situation after the release of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

As time approached 8:30 pm, Alexander Djokav appeared near an exit of a theater on time, and a screening of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was about to end.

The entrance door of the cinema suddenly opened, and audiences came out one after another. Alexander Djokav quickly glanced at the audience. The keen profession that had been trained in front-line market research for a long time told him that most of these audiences should be under the age of 25, while many of those older audiences were with their children.

"The main audience of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is teenagers and family audiences!" It is not difficult for Alexander Djokav to come to such a conclusion.

These thoughts flashed by, and he would make relevant records later. It is the most important thing to consult now.

As the audience got closer and closer, many people seemed to be still discussing the plot. Alexander Djokav stopped a boy in front and said politely, "Hello, I want to ask a few questions about the video "Pirates of the Caribbean". Can you delay you for a while?"

While speaking, he had already delivered a small gift to the boy. The boy nodded and took the gift.

This is not the first time he has encountered this situation. Many newly released movies will have staff on site doing data statistics.

Alexander Djokav put a small recorder in front of the boy and asked the first question, "What do you think of this movie?"

The boy praised it all the time, and it seemed that he had not completely emerged from the movie watching mood just now. "Great! Excellent! Very wonderful!"

Alexander Djokav then asked the second question, "Will you talk about this movie with people around you?"

"Yes! Of course!" the boy said very surely, "Yes, I will talk about this movie to my family, my friends and my classmates. This is the best movie I have seen this summer..."

Alexander Djokav continued, "Which character do you like the most?"

The boy hesitated, "Captain Jack Sparrow and Will Turner are both great, which one should I choose?"

Alexander Djokav was very patient and did not urge him.

The boy thought about Johnny Depp's performance for a few seconds, then thought about Matthew Horner, who was equally outstanding, and said, "If you have to choose one, will I choose Will Turner?"

"Why?" asked Alexander Djokav.

This time the boy did not hesitate and replied directly, "Captain Jack Sparrow is also great, but I know he can only exist as I imagined. Will Turner is different. He is the kind of person we can be."

"Thank you!" Alexander Djokav took back the small recorder.

Then he found a second audience, this time a girl, and asked the same question.

In addition to the one-on-one interview-style questions on the front, Alexander Djokav's colleagues also distributed dozens of questionnaires in the hall. Although these questionnaires are not as intuitive as one-on-one questions, they can also reflect the audience's impression.

The questions on the questionnaire are similar to those asked by Alexander Djokav. In addition to asking questions about the film, it mainly focuses on which character and which actor is the most popular.

Not only this theater, but in the three days this weekend, thousands of theaters across the United States that show "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" were conducting similar survey and statistics work to obtain first-hand intuitive data.

This is feedback from real consumers of the movie, which is far more reflective of whether the movie is popular in the market and future box office trends than media reports and critics’ mouths.

Hollywood film companies attach great importance to statistics in this regard.

As a result, many such survey and consulting companies specializing in film companies' business have emerged. They have good relationships with cinemas, rich investigators, and know how to arouse the audience's interest in accepting questionnaires.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Alexander Djokav and his colleagues withdrew from the theater and returned to the car to quickly organize the question recordings and questionnaires. Before midnight, the data was transferred to the investigation and consulting company where they were located. After the company summarized all the obtained data, it would make an intuitive report and send it to the relevant person in charge of Disney Pictures before going to work the next day.

Then, Disney Pictures will estimate the future box office trend of the film based on the data obtained from various parts of North America and make appropriate adjustments to the post-series promotion plan.

Such a data that directly reflects the market has a real guiding role for film companies.

The night in Los Angeles is getting darker, but in this international metropolis, there are many people who stay up all night. Some will revel in the morning, some will work all night, some will endure the pain of insomnia, and some will not fall asleep because the stakeholder data is not released.

Sean Daniel is one of the sleepless people. He stays in his study at home and refreshes his email every once in a while to see if the first week of Pirates of the Caribbean and other statistics have been reached.
