Chapter 157 North American Release
"Tonight Show" is an evening talk and variety show founded by NBC in 1954. Each episode consists of three parts: monologue, interview guests and band singing. It lasts about 50 minutes and has become a well-known and powerful program in the United States.
What everyone is more familiar with may be "Jimmy Fallen Tonight Show", but he is the fourth generation of "Tonight Show", and the third generation of the three generations are called Jay Renault.
After a monologue, Chen Hao came on stage, and the audience applauded with face and even whistled.
Chen Hao knew that Davis had greeted him before and found a lot of Chinese audiences and some of Chen Hao's movie fans, so the scene should be much more harmonious.
"Welcome tonight, Chen!" Renault applauded loudly.
"Hello everyone, I am the director of "Saw", Chen Hao!" Chen Hao bowed slightly, then sat down and said.
"I thought you would say you were the director of "Moon"!" Renault said, "After all, it just achieved nearly 10 million box office, and the critics sang praises to it."
Looking at Renault with white hair, Chen Hao was actually a little uncomfortable. The scene of "Tonight Show" was a table for the host, and then two chairs were placed close to his right.
Chen Hao and Renault are very close. Chen Hao is worried that Renault's saliva will squirt on his face, but Americans may feel that this is closer.
"The Moon has become a thing of the past, and I am now the director of "Saw"!" Chen Hao said with a smile.
"Hahaha, I'm very confident. This is different from the Chinese people we all think of." Renault said.
"Maybe it's because I've been successful!" Chen Hao said with a smile.
“Wow…”
There was a whistle sound!
"It seems that you are very confident in "Saw". Let me introduce the video to you all!" Renault said.
Chen Hao nodded with a smile when he heard this, really gave him face, "This is a suspense thriller in which a guy named Shuji punishes people who do not cherish their lives. He killed these people through various extremely clever killing methods.
But he has never shown up. When he really appears in front of everyone, I believe everyone will be shocked. You can go and take a look. I guarantee that everyone will not guess who this post is!"
"It sounds very interesting, and this kind of movie is also suitable for the Halloween atmosphere. Interested movie fans must remember to watch it." Renault said.
"That's right, watching "Saw" on October 31 will definitely make you have an unforgettable Halloween!" Chen Hao nodded with a smile.
"Chan, everyone and I are very curious. The Comet and Moon you filmed before are both very outstanding science fiction films. How could you think of shooting suspense thrillers now?" Renault asked.
"Maybe it's because everyone has some violent destruction factors in their bodies, so I'll try to vent it." Chen Hao said.
"Do you have the desire to destroy?" Renault asked.
"Well, when you see a beautiful woman, you know, men love 'bags'!" Chen Hao smiled.
Renault was stunned when he heard this, and then he reacted, "Hahaha, Chen, you are so interesting, so different from the Chinese people I know."
"Actually, there are many Chinese people as funny as me, but you only have too little experience." Chen Hao shrugged.
"Hahaha..." Renault laughed again after hearing this.
Chen Hao was a little puzzled when he saw this. What's so funny about it?
"Well, Chen, do you have any expectations for the box office of "Saw"?" Renault said after a smile.
"I hope "Saw" can surpass the box office of "Moon"!" Chen Hao said modestly.
"Do you want to burst your own ass? Hahaha..." Renault laughed constantly after saying that.
"Self-detonation? It's unlikely, you know, sometimes it's too late!" Chen Hao replied.
"Hahaha..." Renault and the audience laughed.
Chen Hao pulled the corners of his mouth, and his laughter was so low!
...
After the recording of "Tonight Show", Chen Hao and the crew still have to accept interviews from some media.
This time it was no longer Chen Hao. Donnie, Captain America, Hulk, Star Lord, Hawkeye, and Black Panther all participated, probably because of Sony Columbia's face.
Of course, in addition to Hulk, it is also very likely that as newcomers, they are relatively idle and have no scenes to shoot.
"Chen, we're meeting again!" When Donnie saw Chen Hao, he gave a warm hug!
"Donny, how are you doing recently?" Chen Hao asked.
"It's much better. Although there is still no show to shoot, I think everything will be different after "Saw" is released." Donnie smiled.
At this time, Donny lost his previous anxiety and his mental state would improve a lot.
"You are right. After the movie is released, I may not be able to afford you!" Chen Hao said with a smile.
"Hahaha..." Donnie was happy when he heard this, "Don't worry, I will give you a 10% discount when we work together next time!"
"Director Chen, thank you!" Captain America came over and hugged Chen Hao and said.
"Saw" was Captain America's first electric shock, and it was given to Chen Hao like this!
Although Chen Hao is not used to Western intimate behavior, except for beauties, he is still acceptable, as long as he doesn't pat his butt at all times!
Then, Chen Hao greeted Hulk, who had not turned green, was not a funny Star Lord, did not know how to shoot, and Black Panther who had not yet become the king of Wakanda.
Finally, Chen Hao took a photo with everyone. Chen Hao, who was standing in the middle, felt that he was the captain of the Avengers!
In the next few days, Chen Hao promoted it everywhere according to Colombia's arrangements, and Downey and Captain America followed, and the three of them got along very happily.
"The movie was rated R-rated," Davis said.
"That's good!" Chen Hao nodded after hearing this.
However, it was rated as R-level in the United States, and it is probably not available in the country!
"October 31 is Thursday, and the same week included Disney's "Merry Christmas Crazy", Fox Searchlight's "28 Days of Shocking Change", Sony Columbia's "Golden Spy" and "Boxing Love"!" Davis said.
"Sony Columbia has two more films released in the same week as "Saw"?" Chen Hao frowned when he heard this.
"It's all done by Tommy Motora. Although he can't interfere with the shooting of "Saw", he can intervene in the company's release." Davis said with disgust.
"How many screens are there for "Saw"?" Chen Hao couldn't help but worry when he heard this.
"I tried my best to make it, and I made countless calls, and finally negotiated a total of 1,800 companies." Davis said.
Chen Hao was stunned when he heard this. Good guy, he is one of the eight giants in Hollywood.
Chen Hao made many films in his previous life, and in his fourth movie "Super Body", there were only 800 paintings in North America, with a maximum of 1,500 paintings.
There are 2,900 "Inception" companies, but it is already considered an A-level production. In addition, many movies of Chen Hao have become popular in the box office in North America, and have a certain box office appeal.
Now a B-level film costing 1.2 million yuan has 1,800 paintings. I can only say that Hollywood giants are really not called in vain.
"No need to worry about "Boxing Love", it's preview, the main opponent or the other three movies," said Davis. "Especially "Golden Spy", it's going to surpass him anyway."
Chen Hao nodded when he heard this. The two of them were mortal enemies, and now they are head-on confrontation, which has a certain impact on the future president's competition.
"How many artists have created "Golden Spy"?" Chen Hao asked.
"There are 1,800 companies!" said Davis.
Chen Hao felt relieved after hearing this. He had no impression of "Golden Spy". It should not be a big fan movie. Now he is on the same starting line, so Chen Hao is more confident.
Chapter completed!
