The British media were friendly to Madame Tussauds. They only used the most conservative titles, such as "Inauguration Ceremony of Qin Guan's Wax Statue" or "Actor Qin Guan's Wax Statue Officially Enters Madame Tussauds".
However, the Chinese media were not so kind.
They couldn't wait for the contrast to be greater and the more topical the topic, the better.
Titles such as "The Ugliest Wax Statue in History", "Madame Tussauds Does Not Live Up to Her Reputation" and "The Collision of Li Kui and Li Gui" came out one after another.
People who saw them couldn't help but ridicule them for being so f * cking ugly.
Although they had thought the wax statues were fake, they had realized that the charm and details of the stars were perfect.
Why did they treat Qin Guan so differently though?
Fans couldn't stand it anymore. Some hot-blooded fans even tried their best to protest on various websites, asking Madame Tussauds to treat every star's wax statue seriously.
'Suggestion Report on the Need to Strengthen the Professional Training of Professionals'. Seeing that the person who posted the post was making reports on behalf of the leader every day,
"If you can't do it well, don't do it. You tried to make a wax statue for Qin Guan, but you ended up making such a thing. Are you Westerners face-blind?"
"But how could a face as recognizable as Qin Guan's can't be made?"
The staff of Madame Tussauds Wax Museum felt wronged.
They worked overtime to produce the finished product that couldn't be any more similar to the data ratio of a real person.
However, one was a living person, while the other was just a wax statue. How could a wax statue express Qin Guan's charm and eyes?
For example, Madame Tussaud's wax museum should be like the old days, only doing business with the dead. As a commemorative statue, people would only be able to cherish the memory of the deceased, instead of being so entertaining and being scolded by the public.
However, the public sentiment was too impassioned. More and more fans from all over the world joined in the ridicule. For this reason, Madame Tussaud even specially posted an unofficial explanation, as well as the biggest difference between a real person and a sculpture.
A living soul, supporting a different and exciting life.
Please focus on the beauty of Qin Guan. At least we have the most accurate data of his body, right?
After being reminded by the wax museum, the fans on the Internet suddenly understood.
That's right!
The wax figure in Madame Tussauds' wax museum was made according to Qin Guan's real data.
It was a true 1: 1 ratio. Whether it was the height, the length of the legs, or the outline of the muscles, they were all very strict. There was no possibility of it being faked.
Does that mean that I can see the real Qin Guan if I buy a ticket to the wax museum? If he was lucky, he might even be able to touch a whole body.
These perverts.
She didn't have many opportunities to get close to him. Those crazy men and women who rushed to the catwalk during the fashion week would end up having a cup of tea in the police station before going home.
But the wax figures in the wax museum were different.
It can take pictures, hold hands, and when the staff aren't paying attention, you can even do a few shy and intimate acts.
They could take pictures however they wanted and tell their hearts to the wax figurines. There wouldn't be any cold-faced bodyguards coming to drag them away, would there?
Madame Tussauds' wax museum had just taken a breather on the Internet, but in reality, the staff of its branches were going crazy.
As soon as the museum opened, there was a long line of backpackers waiting in line. Tour groups also changed their schedule and added this new activity to kill time.
You don't say, it's really popular.
People were screaming and taking pictures of Qin Guan's unreal wax figure. The other wax figures were also bathed in Qin Guan's light.
However, Qin Guan regarded all the commotion and laughter as a joke.
In his opinion, the news around him always came and went quickly, as there was always more exciting news waiting for him.
After finishing his work in England, he had been invited to attend the premiere of his first sci-fi film in the US, where he had received a shocking piece of news.
In 2008, "I Am Legend" and "The Legend of the Museum" had both been nominated for Saturn Awards.
The Teen Choice Awards and the MTV Movie Awards, which had always been difficult to deal with, had also extended an olive branch to Qin Guan.
Among them, there was the Most Popular Comedian Award. Naturally, there was also the Best Actor Award.
The close dates of the awards gave Qin Guan a headache.
He didn't want to disrespect the American awards, but he had a lot of work to do in China in the future.
Qin Guan had already reduced the number of films he took part in. Instead, he chose to be a guest actor. The Grand Slam in Europe seemed to have slowed down his pace.
He focused more on his family. He wanted to enjoy a relaxing life while he was still young.
Naturally, he wanted to receive the three awards on behalf of his managers. In order to show his impartiality, he decided to go to one venue each.
How big the news would be?
Qin Guan didn't care about that.
As the lights in the movie theater lit up, the film was greeted by the chatter of film critics and media people watching and discussing the film.
When the lead actors and the director in the front row left the stage, there was a continuous round of applause.
This award is dedicated to this outstanding film, and also to the people who created and performed such a film.
Qin Guan felt warm in his heart. It was already winter in the United States, but Qin Guan didn't know what to do with it.
"Director, everyone seems to be very enthusiastic. Does this mean that the film is a success?"
"No!" The director looked at Qin Guan worriedly. Then he added, "The good reviews at the screening don't mean the final ones."
"We have to wait for the comments of the film critics in the mainstream newspapers and the box office of the first day. Then we can draw a final conclusion."
"Those bastards are too treacherous. They can praise you as beautiful as a peony in front of you, but in the blink of an eye, they will write a pile of mud on the paper."
"I've seen too many of them!"
Looking at the worried director's back, Qin Guan felt that he was overthinking.
He was confident in the film's shooting techniques and the perspective of the end of the world.
Qin Guan believed that it was an excellent sci-fi film.
Of course, it was impossible for everyone to praise a movie. There would always be people who would criticize a movie, wouldn't there?
Qin Guan waited for the box office of Comrade Wang the next day.
Qin Guan smiled proudly as he looked at the first place on the three-day box office chart.
The box office had reached 40 million dollars on the first day, and the next two days had been even higher. The total box office had reached more than 90 million dollars.
No wonder the film had remained at the top of the North American box office. At this rate, the box office would reach 300 million dollars during the first two weeks of its release.
The North American box office might not be able to beat the global box office.
A rough estimate showed that the global box office of I am Legend could easily break the 500 million mark and break the 600 million mark. All it needed was a stroke of luck.
With such box office earnings, how could the reviews be bad?
In a good mood, Qin Guan picked up a free newspaper from the hotel while eating the exquisite breakfast provided by the hotel.
Coincidentally, the reviews and statistics of "I Am Legend" were on it.
"Let me have a look …"
"'I Am Legend' is actually a film about the last man on Earth, played by the last real movie star. Apart from that, there is nothing new about it."
Hehehe, this newspaper is not very famous. The Boston Globe cannot represent the opinions of one newspaper.
"Qin Guan is worth watching, but the film is not."
"Detroit News..."
The hotel has a complete set of newspapers.
Out of curiosity, Qin Guan called the waiter over. The brown-haired young man's heart stopped for three seconds in an instant.
"Mr. Xianxian, how may I help you?"
Why does such a nice young man stutter?
Qin Guan looked at him sympathetically. "The hotel has a complete set of newspapers. Do you have anything else? "
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"The Chicago Reader, The Hollywood Reporter, The Globe and Mail, Variety Show, Newsday, USA Today... We have everything. If you really want to find some small local newspaper, as long as the customer needs it, our hotel will try our best to help you get it! "
He stuttered hard at the beginning, but he was as fluent as reporting the names of the dishes. His professionalism was amazing.
Qin Guan nodded at him in a friendly manner. "Thank you. I'll need all these newspapers."
"Of course, of course. You're welcome."
Qin Guan was nervous again.
If it weren't for the young man's explanation and bragging, the lobby manager would have thought that he was going to take the newspapers from the public reading room home and sell them as scrap paper.
