Chapter 1795 1797 [Wrangler]

  In April, Xiang Nan's role in "Cannonball Run" has already been wrapped.

   After all, this play is a group play, and his total appearance time is less than 30 minutes.

  One month is enough for shooting.

  After the scene was finished, Xiang Nan bid farewell to Brooke Shields, and then flew back to the mainland to participate in Peking University's thesis defense.

   This was not difficult for him, and he easily got a high score.

   Later, he found time to meet with Cong Shan.

   "Ning Wei, good news, I'm going to make a movie." Cong Shan said happily when she saw Xiang Nan.

   "Making a movie?! Well, congratulations." Xiang Nan nodded, and then asked with a smile, "Which director has such a vision that he actually chose you to act?"

   "It's director Xie Jin. He wants me to make his new film "The Wrangler." Cong Shan said proudly.

  Xiang Nan clapped his hands and applauded, "Okay, director Xie Jin is now a leading director in the Mainland, it is definitely an honor for you to work with him. Work hard and don't let him down."

   "Well, I will." Cong Shan nodded, then frowned slightly, "But I'm just worried, whether I can act well."

   After all, she is still a first-year student, and she has just been exposed to acting for a short time. Let her be the leading actor now, and cooperate with the first-line directors, she really has no idea.

"Don't worry, you have to trust Director Xie's vision. If you don't have that ability, he will definitely not invite you to play. He is more cautious than you when it comes to works." Xiang Nan comforted, "So you don't have to worry, although Do as directed by the director."

   "Yeah." Hearing what he said, Cong Shan nodded, and she suddenly felt confident.

  …

  Xiang Nan stayed with Cong Shan in Yanjing for three days, and then returned to Xiangjiang by plane.

  At this time, Wang Jing's "Flower Heart" has been completed and is in post-production.

  He has always been a fast shooter when making movies. When he was most proud, he released eleven movies a year.

  Like "The Bewitched Boy: The Raptors Crossing the River", it only took nine days to shoot.

  Jackie Chan's "Dragon Ninja" directed and acted by himself is still in the process of filming, and only half of it has been filmed.

   Xiang Nan was not surprised by this.

  Jackie Chan has always had high requirements for his own works. When he filmed "Flying Eagle Project", the investment exceeded 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and the crew traveled to Asia, Africa and Latin America. Just to make the desert scenery, ten tons of sand were transported specially.

   "Dragon Ninja" is his turning point, of course he dare not be sloppy.

  Xiang Nan expressed his understanding and was willing to support him.

  Because he was going to hand over the Xiangjiang market that was vacated after he went to Hollywood for development to Jackie Chan to fill.

  Since he wants to make him a star, he must be willing to spend money.

   Jackie Chan is naturally very grateful for this.

   Before cooperating with Luo Wei, Luo Wei is not a generous person. Even Jackie Chan can't stand the crudeness of many sets and the perfunctory props. But he wanted to invest more, but Luo Wei refused to die.

  As a result, the quality of the film is very poor and lacks texture, and it is naturally difficult for the audience to agree.

   Now I am so happy to be with a boss who is willing to spend money and respects art.

  …

  Xiang Nan stayed in Xiangjiang for seven days, mainly to accompany Miao Kexiu and Zheng Wenya.

   "Ning Wei, I am going to immigrate to Canada, what do you think?" Miao Kexiu said to Xiang Nan.

   "Why do you have this idea all of a sudden?" Xiang Nan was stunned and asked in doubt.

"Now there is no place for me in the Hong Kong film industry." Miao Kexiu said sadly, "I filmed a few TV dramas in Li's, but the response was not very good, so I was discouraged and didn't want to film anymore. My family I have immigrated to Canada before, and now I am going to reunite with them."

  Xiang Nan nodded.

   Miao Kexiu is nearly thirty years old, neither too old nor too young. She debuted in 1970, now it is 1981, ten years have passed.

   In the eyes of today's young audience, she is already an artist of the previous generation. Even though she is still young and beautiful, to the audience, she is not as cute as the newcomer.

  In addition, Miao Kexiu has a deep bond with Bruce Lee, so most of the films he took on were related to Bruce Lee.

  Now, it has been eight years since Bruce Lee passed away. The audience may miss this superstar, but his box office appeal has inevitably declined.

  It's like "Tower of Death", which is a remake of Bruce Lee's posthumous work, with a box office of less than two million Hong Kong dollars. Compared with Xiang Nan's "Police Story", it is an order of magnitude worse.

  Bruce Lee is no longer popular, how popular is the former Dragon Girl.

   "Besides, aren't you filming in Hollywood? After I immigrated to Canada, I was closer to you." Miao Kexiu said again, "If you want me, come and see me. It's more convenient than going back to Xiangjiang."

   "Then what are you going to do after you quit the film industry? Do you have enough savings?" Xiang Nan asked with concern.

   "I might go back to school to study." Miao Kexiu explained, "You don't have to worry about the money. Although I haven't made much money from filming in the past few years, it is enough for me."

  Xiang Nan nodded, "Since you have already made up your mind, I won't persuade you anymore. Don't worry, I will definitely visit you."

   "Yes." Miao Kexiu also nodded.

  …

   Zheng Wenya also quickly became popular by virtue of her role as the glamorous girl Salina in "Police Story", and became a popular actress in the Hong Kong film industry, with countless film appointments at one time.

   Now she is filming "Ghost Horse Zhi Duo Xing" produced by New Art City.

   This is a comedy with an exaggerated and funny plot. It tells the story of the old man Hu who wants to use a beauty trick to defraud the godfather Kabon and others of his money, but is finally deceived by private detective Ye Laixiang and detective Robin.

   Zheng Wenya played the old man Hu's daughter, a beautiful and charming old lady, not too different from her character in "Police Story". She acted naturally with ease.

  Because of her busy schedule, even when Xiang Nan returned to Hong Kong, she could only spend two days with him.

   This made her very guilty, "Ning Wei, next time you come back, tell me in advance, I will definitely adjust the schedule and accompany you well."

   "No, your career is important now. I don't want you to give up your career because of me. That would make me feel bad." Xiang Nan waved his hand.

  The so-called small farewell wins newlyweds. Sticking together for too long, on the contrary, I lost the feeling.

  Furthermore, he happened to be able to make a date with a girl.

   This woman has been pestering him for almost two years. Out of humanitarianism, he should also give some rain and dew, otherwise it would be too cruel.

   Zheng Wenya didn't know what he really thought, but she was very happy to hear him say that.

  I feel that Xiang Nan is very open-minded and understanding, without masculinity, chasing girls only hope that she stays at home, cooks, wipes the floor and gives birth to children, and be his own yellow-faced woman.

   "Ning Wei, you are so kind." She said moved.

  …

  Xiang Nan then took Tanniu, rented a yacht and went out to sea, spending an unforgettable night, and finally followed her wish.

  Before leaving Hong Kong, Xiang Nan helped Wang select another project—"Eight Generals of a Thousand Gates", which tells a story of grievances and hatreds in the gambling world.

   For Wang Jing, this is definitely a good game.
