Best Supporting Actor Award. At this time, he really opened up his popularity.
If we say that "The Grandmaster" in 2014 was the film that made Zhang Jin really famous, then " Kills the Wolf 2" in the second year (that is, 2015) made Zhang Jin really popular in China s work.
In the movie "Slaying the Wolf 2", Zhang Jin played a warden with high martial arts, ruthless and always expressionless. In the film, the role played by Zhang Jin once singled out Tony Jia and Wu Jing , his movements are very smooth and very entertaining. With his outstanding performance, this time Zhang Jin won the Best Supporting Actor Award at the 20th Huading Awards of .
A "Master of the Generation" made Zhang Jin famous, and a "Slaying the Wolf 2" made Zhang Jin really popular. Under such circumstances, many people thought that Zhang Jin, a late bloomer, was really going to be a big hit this time. Big purple.
But what people didn't expect is that Zhang Jin was only a flash in the pan. After "Slaying the Wolf 2", he has never released a high-quality, high-box, high-reputation film, nor has he created a memorable one. Deep persona. Especially when playing the first leading role, it shows Zhang Jin's powerlessness.
On September 9 this year, on the Mid-Autumn Festival, the modern military-themed movie " Wolves " starring Zhang Jin began to be shown in mainland theaters. It can be seen from the trailer and the introduction to the plot that this movie called "Wolf Pack" is somewhat similar to Wu Jing's " Wolf Warriors " series, so it has also attracted a lot of attention. Although the
films are very similar, Zhang Jin is not as "happy" as Wu Jing. On the first day of
's release, because it received a certain amount of attention, "Wolf Pack" received a box office of nearly 10 million yuan, ranking third in the box office of the day. But on the second day, the film's daily box office dropped directly to less than 3 million, ranking tenth on the list. In the following days, the daily box office of "Wolf Pack" has been on a downward trend. Now that a month has passed, the cumulative total box office of the film is less than 30 million yuan. This box office result is quite low for the current Chinese mainland market.
In terms of kung fu, Zhang Jin is not inferior to Wu Jing; in terms of acting skills, Zhang Jin has also won the Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Performance. Zhang Jin, who has such favorable conditions, is nearly half a hundred years old but has not yet been able to become famous. This may be because he does not have a good opportunity, or it may be because he has not really found his acting route.
