Regarding "Knives Out", Shen Changlin never thought that it would break any box office records...

In the original time and space, the global box office of "Knives Out" was US$313 million.

It's not a hit.

Let it break the record of "Wolf Warrior 2"?

unless…

The director of this movie is Nolan!

Neither can Nolan. Neither "Dunkirk" nor "Tenet" were amazing at the box office...

Especially "Tenet"...

Shen Changlin is very envious of Nolan. There are a lot of people helping to make up for the quality of "Tenet" - "20,000 words of commentary to understand every detail!!", "Masterpiece, take you to understand every detail" Every detail》…

Making the audience incomprehensible turns out to be an important support for this type of movie to achieve high scores?

Shouldn't the director's job be to let the audience understand and understand his work?

Brother, let's hide Nolan and replace "Tenet" with a director, such as Michael Bay...

What did you see through "Tenet"?

You can see that the director himself can't figure it out and can only rely on YY's high-end physics, obvious logical bugs, inadequate narrative, nonsense reasons, and sudden sublimation...

What are these?

These are standard features of bad movies!

Why is it different when directed by Nolan?

Coming back, Shen Changlin doesn't have much expectations for "Knives Out". Of course, he will still receive the necessary publicity. After all, it is his own movie.

But Huang Bo was very excited...

Nonsense, "Knives Out" is a movie he starred in. The North American box office exceeded 100 million, and the global box office has reached 280 million US dollars...

He became the fourth Chinese actor to conquer North America after Jackie Chan, Li Lianlian and Zhou Yunfa.

And what he relies on is not fighting, it is a pure drama...

Of course, he is different from Li Lianjie. Li Lianjie is a special type of actor - when Li Lianjie was filming "Lethal Weapon 4", his personal rating was second only to Mel Gibson. The day after the data was released, a producer came to Looking for him, he made a B-level movie tailor-made for him, and his net worth soared from hundreds of thousands of dollars to tens of millions of dollars.

Huang Bo relies on his acting skills and has a wide range of roles...

A little embarrassing!

Not many Americans are willing to watch a literary or drama film starring a Chinese actor.

As for superhero movies…

His looks and height are not suitable either!

We can’t let him play the Atom!

By the way, Atom is similar to Ant-Man. They are ordinary people who use technology to shrink and grow...

Zheng Kai once appeared in the original time and space, and he appeared in "Justice League", and then was cut off by Joss Whedon. Later, Zack Snyder's version of "Justice League" was released, and Zheng Kai appeared for three minutes...

Therefore, for the time being, he still only has the "Knives Out" series...

However, I heard that Tom Hanks was very optimistic about him and introduced him to Ron Howard, who confirmed that he would star in "Solo: A Star Wars Story".

…

"Nothing else. The idea for "Knives Out" came about at the same time as "Detective Chinatown," but I filmed "Detective Chinatown" first..."

Shen Changlin accepted an exclusive interview with "Watching Movies" to promote "Knives Out".

He has a good relationship with A Lang, the editor-in-chief of "Watching Movies".

"So the reputation and box office of "Knives Out" were within your expectations?"

"...it's not bad. In the field of suspense and reasoning, the box office of "Knives Out" is already high enough...As an original story character, it is considered a success!"

Indeed, the previous star-studded "Murder on the Orient Express" had a global box office of only 350 million US dollars, and the North American box office exceeded 100 million US dollars!

The North American box office of "Knives Out" is second only to "Sherlock Holmes"...

The latter costs $90 million…

Shen Changlin continued: "In fact, the original script did not have so many political metaphors. After Rian Johnson joined, he felt that this play was suitable for adding these political things... and then I agreed!"

"Rian Johnson?"

"He is also one of the screenwriters and the director of the sequel to "Detective Huang Lanke"..."

"Did you need other screenwriters to assist you in your previous filming?"

"It wasn't necessary before, but now it is... After all, my understanding of overseas situations is limited. When I was filming "The Wronger", I also found a few screenwriters to perfect the script..."

"Then your next work plan is to make a Chinese film a year, and then an English film?"

Shen Changlin was stunned for a moment: "No... the focus of my work must be Chinese-language films!"

Alang didn't quite understand: "Why? You have already conquered Hollywood."

"Conquer Hollywood?"

Shen Changlin couldn't help but laugh: "Making a suspense film is called conquering Hollywood?"

"There was also "Avenger" before..."

"The investors of these two movies are our own companies. Have you ever seen a director who conquered Hollywood and had to pay for his own movies? And I don't have any ideas about Hollywood, otherwise, I wouldn't sell the branch. !”

"Then do you think the mainland box office of "Knives Out" can surpass "Wolf Warrior 2"?"

"...You think too highly of me! No movie can beat the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" for at least five years! What is the concept of 165 million moviegoers? According to the data provided by the theater chain, in terms of viewing frequency, 3 The proportion of films below is about half, do you think these people will choose domestic films or Hollywood blockbusters?"

"What do you think of the domestic box office of "Knives Out"..."

"About 500 million... By the way, killing "Dunkirk" won't be a problem!"

"Why?"

"Who would be interested in a great retreat? Except the Brits!"

Shen Changlin did it on purpose, to provoke Nolan fans...

Otherwise, "Knives Out" will not be able to create a topic!

"Have you watched "Dunkirk"?"

"Yes, I watched it once in the United States...it's an experimental film...using music instead of plot and dialogue..."

"Do you think Nolan is too praised?"

"...I don't judge other directors..."

…

In fact, generally speaking, movies that have been successful in North America do not need too much publicity.

Your publicity is of no use. You should still go see what you should see. If you are not interested, you are still not interested!

A movie with a theme like "Knives Out" is a typical suspense mystery film. Everyone who likes it will like it very much, and those who are indifferent will continue to be indifferent...

However, the name of Shen Changlin and the starring role of Huang Bo are still very attractive.

It was released on September 1st, with a box office of 147 million on the first day, 182 million on the second day, and 129 million on the third day...

458 million in the first weekend…

Far exceeded Shen Changlin's expectations.

Then, "Dunkirk", released on the same day, had a box office of 188 million in its first weekend...

Nolan’s movie, ‘rare’ box office failure…

In fact, it's normal, just like Shen Changlin said - few Chinese are interested in the British evacuation during World War II...

Does it have anything to do with us?

Why, we have to study the history of Daidai Ying?

However, an exclusive interview with "Watching Movies" was published, in which Shen Changlin commented on "Dunkirk": "Killing "Dunkirk" will not be a problem!"
