This director is very reliable

"I don't know much about Hollywood, so the casting of "Knives Out" was handed over to Warner, because only they know who is at odds with whom, and these are all resources in the pockets of Hollywood bigwigs."

Shen Changlin was interviewed by "Hollywood Reporter"...

Propaganda is always done!
"I feel that Hollywood is different from what I imagined. It's a bit too particular about cards. Traveling is at least first-class... I used to travel, and I often took economy class, because first-class can't arrive 10 minutes earlier. Later, I bought a private jet..."

"To be honest, Hollywood has lost the idea of ​​making movies, and they are all thinking about making money!"

"I often say a word, if you want to make money, don't make movies, you can do the Internet, you can see for yourself, the market value of the six big names in Hollywood can't match the Oracle of Silicon Valley!"

"Of course making money is very important...but you can't just do comics, you can also shoot Marvel and DC, who will make "The Godfather" and "Once Upon a Time in America"?"

"A healthy film market cannot just circulate films of one genre..."

"But if I stood in their position, I would also do manga..."

“Because manga movies can avoid many cultural differences to the greatest extent, and can be accepted by audiences all over the world. Moreover, the low production capacity of original stories is accompanied by risks. At this time, manga movies with a mass base are the best choice! "

"But I'm not very interested in this kind of movie...and we are not a large company, so we can't afford to make big productions of the non-mainstream model..."

"About "Knives Out", I have to admit that I am a fan of Agatha Christie, and I have always wanted to make an Agatha Christie-style mystery suspense film...So, I made "Knives Out"..."

"I don't talk about politics. These things are added by the second screenwriter, and have nothing to do with me!"

"The story of "Detective Huang Rank" will definitely continue. I should not be the director. After all, my main job is to serve Chinese audiences!"

Talking about this, a reporter from The Hollywood Reporter asked about Longwood's sale to Comcast.

"This is very complicated. Anyway, I explained to the outside world that 'North America is not easy to mix'!"

"What's the real reason?"

"The year before last, 16 members of the U.S. House of Representatives jointly submitted a petition to suspend Wanda's acquisition of Dick Clark Productions... The reason is that China is trying to censor the subject matter and impose propaganda control on the U.S. media. I am thinking that the U.S. may not welcome foreign investment, so, Just sell it!"

"It's that simple?"

"Yes, the most important thing is that Comcast is very generous, and the conditions offered are tempting enough!"

Lao Wang buys and buys in Hollywood. For these frequent large-scale investments, the CNBC host used the popular Hollywood "dumb money" (dumb money) to describe...

Clearly everyone is not friendly to money from China!

"Of course I hope that art and politics will not be related, but we all know that art, especially film art, is usually closely related to politics... Otherwise, Hollywood would not be the stronghold of the democratic party!"

"The reason why "Wolf Warrior 2" is a big hit in China is very simple. This movie was made for Chinese people..."

……

The "Hollywood Reporter" interview also mentioned Shen Changlin's assets. Shen Changlin didn't make exact statistics, but only said 'I'm pretty rich'...

In fact, according to Forbes' forecast, Shen Changlin's worth is around $80 billion.

The game company still owns Toutiao. Of course, Toutiao is still dormant, and Douyin has not yet become awesome...

Go on for a few more years!
With the release of the latest issue of The Hollywood Reporter, Knives Out topped the box office for its second weekend...

It also turned the cumulative box office into $9200 million...

In fact, the influence of "The Hollywood Reporter" is just like that.

The main reason is that the opponent is not strong!
In the new week, "The Great Felicia", "Birth of the Dragon" and a literary film "They Are All Saints" are released...

"The Great Felice" is a French cartoon, a very failed work - the French guy gave up his strengths in art and philosophy, and tried Disney-style animation routines. The plot is very simple: an energetic The bluffing silly Baitian counterattacked Bai Fumei under the halo of golden fingers that exploded into the sky...

Not bad at the box office, $1.02 million worldwide!
It can be seen that the story of Silly Baitian's counterattack has an audience!

Of course, the cost of this film is not low...

"Birth of the Dragon" is a biographical movie about Bruce Lee!
The investor is Kirin Films...

The boss, Pang Hong, was the vice president of Ningxia Film Group before, and he did "Painted Skin"...

Established Kylin Films, produced several films, all of which are foreign-related, and each film started with an investment of [-] million yuan - "Sun and Moon Mermaid", "Birth of the Dragon"...

It is said that the cost of "Birth of the Dragon" is 2.5 million!
Except for "Blood War Hacksaw Ridge", other word-of-mouth box office hit the street, and some of them are not even released in the foreseeable future...

Just to add, in the past few years, many companies have taken the route of international blockbusters, but they have no regard for the quality of the films. They claim to invest hundreds of millions and hundreds of millions.

Moreover, most of the bosses of these companies come from former state-owned film companies.

Where did they get the money from?

do not know…

……

Shen Changlin only stayed in North America for ten days, and then returned to China...

I also talked about a few projects, "Sea King", "Joker" and "Ready Player One"...

"Sea King", in fact, Warner is not very optimistic, because Aquaman is inferior - "The Big Bang Theory"...

"Aquaman Sucks!" gradually became the new label of this character.

In the latest restart comics, Aquaman was even kicked out of the Big Seven, and when he went to a restaurant to order food, he was complained "You can talk to fish, so you can't eat fish..."

Not very popular in itself!
Why shoot it?
The five giants of "Justice League" must have solo movies!
After watching "Sea King" and seeing the majestic underwater world, I can't help but think of the East China Sea Dragon Palace in Journey to the West...

Uh, in the second half of this year, Journey to the West co-produced by China and the United States will be officially launched. I will continue to play the role of Monkey King Monkey King. I will use the artistic image of Monkey King to create a positive image. Both style and style will blossom and promote Chinese culture. I hope everyone Can you pay more attention to...

"Ready Player One" is because Spielberg hasn't had a big-selling work for several years!
After messing up "The Giant Dreamer" the year before last, the four-film cooperation contract that Disney originally signed with Spielberg was also torn up by Disney...

Pulling it back, after negotiating the cooperation of the three films, Shen Changlin went back to China directly.

He didn't even participate in the casting of the queen of the sea...

After all, Amber Heard is the one who cheats on other people's bed, and Shen Changlin's taste is not so heavy!
This woman is so ruthless that Depp has been suppressed by her for three years.

The so-called gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, why bother?
……

After returning to China, Shen Changlin followed Yuqian to NMG for a week, and then returned to the capital.

Brother Qian specially invited...

It just so happened that Shen Changlin didn't want to work, so they hit it off!
Back in the capital, I immediately received a call from Lao Guo...

I still have to go to work - "Knives Out" will be released in China soon.

"Knives Out won the North American box office three consecutive times. You broke Wu Yusen's record!"

Shen Changlin was speechless, this flattery was too blunt: "...don't talk nonsense, "Mission: Impossible 2" is the third annual box office in North America and the world's annual box office champion!"
