This is not the first time Chris Evans has worked with a foreign director.

He had previously filmed Bong Joon-ho's "Snowpiercer" and probably knew the Oriental director...

This is his idea, and when he meets Lu Xiaoran, he knows that there is more than one side of the Oriental...

Bong Joon-ho... Doesn't speak English.

In addition to the simplest daily communication in English, he understands a little, so he needs a translator.

Lu Xiaoran is quite fluent in English, and of course there is also a translator...

This is nothing, Chris originally thought that Lu Xiaoran would be very ... Respect, after all, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is popular all over the world, and the American team is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

As a result, Director Lu didn't pay much attention to him at all - he even thought his acting skills were too poor!

It's disgusting!

I used too much force, and my face was full of 'I'm going to break free from the role of Captain America'...

It's really better to listen to Wen Ziren and find Patrick Wilson to play this role.

Patrick Wilson, Wen Ziren's good friend, "Latent", "The Conjuring", he is the male number one...

Absolute true love!

As for Amber Heard...

Well, some of the cars look quite new, but in fact the kilometers are scary!

What you thought was fresh mutton has actually been rolled up!

Lu Xiaoran has no preference for Yanmar, but he knows a lot about Lao Mei's entertainment industry, and these second- and third-tier actresses all have stunts, and they are all practiced - the white on the outside can't hide the black on the inside, and all the disguises are pierced at midnight!

is past the age of dealing with outsiders, and he doesn't like to spit everywhere...

All, there is no common language with these people, except for Christopher Plummer, who plays Harlan Slumby, this is a real veteran actor.

won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor with "Beginner", he looks so much like Michael Kane that Lu Xiaoran was almost confused...

Michael Kane is the butler in Nolan's "Batman" trilogy, and Christopher Plummer has never worked with Nolan...

By the way, he's also quite busy, Kevin Spacey was knocked down because of a temperament incident, and he starred in "Money World" must be replaced, Christopher Plummer is the one who entered the scene to make up the shot...

It doesn't matter if you are an actor or not, if you make a mistake, you should be beaten!

Netflix is also very decisive, an ace project like "House of Cards", it is cut when it is said - in comparison, our cat is really...

......

The actors often get together and gossip about it.

Lu Xiaoran was an observer...

They are very satisfied with the script of "Knives Out", so they will join this crew...

Of course, through their chats, it is also known that they are not very satisfied with the existing order, especially Disney's dominance of the North American film market.

"'Blizzard Hills Mode', Agatha Christie's best creative mode, "No One Survives", "Murder on the Orient Express", I particularly like it, in fact, there are many movies of this kind in North America before, "Ambush on All Sides", "Fatal ID", "Eight Beauties"... However, in recent years, there have been very few suspense genre films in Hollywood..."

"Everyone is busy making manga works..."

"I like "Avengers" very much, and I like DC a lot, but movies shouldn't only have these two genres, there should be some other genres..."

“... Yes, now 90% of the market is encroached upon by these entertainment genres..."

In a sense, Marvel's stylized movies capture most of the resources, leaving very few resources for those bold films, reducing diversity...

"The essence of a modern film series: market research, audience testing, censorship, revision, refurbishment and rework until they can be consumed. ”

"Now, the genre of film output is becoming more and more concentrated, and Disney has publicly said that it will only make big-budget films with an investment of 200 million US dollars, and will not make low-budget films..."

This sentence was said by Alan Horn, chairman of Disney Studios: because after the release of "The Queen of Cartes" produced by Walt Disney Pictures in 2016, the box office was only more than $5 million. And with such box office results, the live-action version of "Beauty and the Beast" can do it in four hours a weekend...

"High-cost productions of about 200 million US dollars or more, each of which can attract the widest audience in the world, only need to release 10 or more films a year to achieve fame and fortune!"

Quite reasonable, but, as an industry leader, you take the lead in not making low-to-medium and low-cost films, have you ever thought about what kind of changes it will bring to Hollywood?

Lu Xiaoran listened while reading the Weibo news.

On the eighteenth day of its release, the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" climbed to 4.5 billion, and the single-day box office still exceeded 100 million...

"Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" also made a lot of jokes, at least making the "locked field" and "fan circle thinking" out of the circle...

Locking is well understood, which refers to the behavior of fans buying movie tickets in order to avoid the movie being offline and changed by the cinema due to the dismal box office;

Fandom thinking: movies get in the way so they are hacked, which movie doesn't lock the venue before it is released, and it is ridiculous sunspots that mock the lock.

The focus is on the latter sentence: either pink or black, and by extension, either friend or foe.

Fans, with their self-contained logic and desperate fanaticism, not only moved themselves, but also brainwashed the producers and investors...

They believe that without traffic, there will be no fans, without fans there will be no topic, without topics there will be no heat, and without popularity there will be no box office.

The final conclusion is that the box office depends on the fans, and the fight for the box office becomes a war to curry favor with the fans and eliminate the non-fans: everyone joins hands to duel the imaginary "sunspots".

And what about the audience?

When you get into this logic, the audience is the fan!

Fans are users!

Wake up, it's 7012, and you're still playing fan economy?

Lu Xiaoran looked at the post written by the media 'asking Wu Jing to apologize and directly scolding 'wolf fans'", and laughed out loud with a pig cry...

Especially the one in it: 'Behind the success of your wolf warrior is the grave of countless other films, killing the dreams of countless filmmakers!'

Ha ha...

This logic is really intoxicating, no one buys tickets for your own movie, so you blame other movies for selling too well?

"What are you laughing at?"

“... Nothing, I'm reading domestic reports..."

Lu Xiaoran looked up, it was Amber Heard, he put his phone in his pocket as if nothing happened, got up and walked to Daniel Craig, sat down, and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"Let's talk about Marvel movies again..."

"This Chris has the most say, right?"

Chris Evans waved his hand: "Don't worry about me, I just filmed Marvel to make money!"

Tsk, the American version of Sekiya magical...

"Director," Daniel Craig asked him, "what do you think of IP movies?"

"The choice of the market, when the audience's aesthetic fatigue is over, IP movies will naturally not be popular!" After a pause, Lu Xiaoran added: "Many audiences rely on IP to like movies, and then they are cultivated by more classic movies..."
