The reason why he asked Harvey to take action was because Bai Quinn actually had a suspect in his heart, but he did not dare to say it clearly in front of Sarah.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is currently on a season break. The next season will be released in April next year. Apart from Batman and Robin, which Sarah is preparing to join, she only has one movie to be released soon.

That is the story of the villain on November 1st.

Although there are still nearly two months until November 1st, it is difficult to tell clearly. Maybe Sarah is just the first target of the opponent's attack, and the next few leading actors may receive attacks in turn.

Some of the more threatening films from the same period as The Villain include the following:

Ransom starring Mel Gibson.

After Mel Gibson's Braveheart swept last year's Oscars, the new film Ransom, co-produced with famous director Ron Howard, is aiming to win the box office title of the month. With the strength of this combination, they should be disdainful of the evil messenger who poses little threat.

It's an outside move.

And considering the bad relationship between Mel and Harvey, even if the other party makes a move, the target should not be the unimportant Sarah.

exclude.

The black comedy Hot Girls starring Jada Smith is a black movie, has a different audience, and is released a week late, so it is unlikely.

exclude.

High School, High School stars Jon Lovitz, the comedy star from Saturday Night Live.

The film is a traditional American comedy and has a different audience than The Evil Dead.

exclude.

For the same reason, the comedy Bigger Than Life starring Bill Murray is also excluded.

Dear God, produced by Rui Xue Entertainment, is said to be not favored by distributor Paramount, so it probably doesn't have the energy to stir up trouble.

exclude.

The Funeral directed by Abel Ferrara is my own film and has already been screened in Italy. The U.S. screening is just to go through the process and not to worry too much about box office gains and losses.

Also excluded.

In the end, the only one left was to be released on the same day as The Villain, directed by Baz Luhrmann and starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes, Romeo and Juliet.

Comparing the two movies, it can be said that both are on par.

Romeo and Juliet has Leonardo DiCaprio, and The Bad Guys has Quinn Blanc and acting newcomer Edward Norton. Their looks are not much inferior, and their acting skills are even better.

Romeo and Juliet features high-profile newcomer Claire Danes, while The Bad Guys features new actress Mira Sorvino and teen idol Sarah Michelle Gellar.

The production cost of "The Legend of Evil" is about 10 million, with a preliminary publicity budget of more than 5 million. If the screening is well-received, Miramax may invest additional money.

The production cost of Romeo and Juliet was US$13 million, and the initial publicity budget may be a bit more. Twentieth Century Fox's publicity efforts have always been very high, and it has caused a lot of topics even before it was released, with tabloid news coming one after another.

"The final contenders for the role of Juliet: Jennifer Love Hewitt, Kate Winslet, Christina Ricci, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Claire Danes, Aaliyah... Is there something weird mixed in?

?”

"Breaking news, Natalie Portman once flew to the director's house in Sydney to win the role of Juliet in Claire Danes, but ended up hating Australia because of her actual age."

"During the audition, Leo caught sight of Claire Danes and tried his best to protect her."

"Claire Danes accuses Leonardo DiCaprio of being immature."

"They are dating! Reporters photographed DiCaprio and Claire Danes on a date in Verona Beach!"

"The film's filming location in Australia was destroyed by the storm, and the crew had to move to Florida to continue filming."

"While filming at the famous Chapultepec Castle in Mexico City, the stylist was kidnapped by a local gang and released after paying a ransom of three hundred dollars... yes, three hundred dollars!"

From the above, we can see how much attention this Romeo and Juliet in the modern gangster setting has received.

Although the villain's ability to spread news is not bad, it is still slightly inferior. Basically, Bai Quinn alone is responsible for the popularity.

In terms of market competition alone, Romeo and Juliet is the most suspect. Considering that Sarah entered the final round of casting for Juliet, there are reasons to target her.

But in fact, there was another important reason that Bai Quinn didn't dare to say.

He dated Claire Danes in high school!

If you include this one, there are so many reasons to attack Sarah!

After some analysis, Bai Quinn quickly identified the "enemies" who were slandering Sarah as the crew of Romeo and Juliet. While trying to find a way to relieve Sarah's crisis, he was also prepared to prevent his opponents from changing their targets to others, and finally planned a counterattack.

.

Chris will help contact the bank. If a large amount of funds is needed, he can help Bai Quinn use the expected profits of the two singles as collateral to lend a sum of money.

Harvey is helping to put out the fire and prevent public opinion from expanding. If the media needs help in building momentum, Harvey can also be the central contact.

But the most urgent thing at the moment is, is there any way to reverse the negative impact of smear reports before the public forms a fixed impression?

In fact, Bai Quinn has a vague idea about this. She just talked about it with Harvey on the phone. Although Harvey had no objection, Bai Quinn was also worried that it would be counterproductive due to the lack of professional opinions.

While Sarah went upstairs to clean up, Bai Quinn found a corner and dialed a number he had not contacted for a long time.

"Hi, Samantha? I'm qb, no contact for a long time...

That's right, do you accept private commissions?

...my girlfriend Sarah...did you see that?

...Okay, okay, I'll wait for you..."

In terms of media and public relations, the professional that Bai Quinn is most familiar with is Samantha Jones. Although she is currently responsible for the public relations work of a real estate businessman's Miss Universe, she happens to have some spare time and can take on "small jobs."

By the way, Bai Quinn also called Jerry to Los Angeles. Although Jerry was not Bai Quinn's personal lawyer, he was the legal counsel of Big Machine Records. To Bai Quinn, it almost meant the same thing. Some things should only be used once they are familiar.

Student, the worst possible outcome is extra money!

Samantha arrives in Los Angeles tomorrow. Before she can help make a complete plan, Quinn still follows her own plans and goes out to show affection with Sarah. They go out for shopping and dinner at noon, and in the evening go to the karate club where Sarah often goes to exercise.

Before going out, Bai Quinn repeatedly warned Sara that there would be paparazzi around today, and not to answer any questions from reporters, but to wait for the opinions of "professionals" and then give a unified reply.
