Chapter 1817 1819 [Art pressure as a pedestrian]

  Xiang Nan filmed two more scenes.

  At night, go to play with Binny, Keith, Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Yuan Biao, Laura and others as scheduled.

   "Everyone just have fun tonight, I will pay for all expenses." Xiang Nan laughed.

  Everyone will be happy when they hear it.

   "Charles, I watched "The Late Show with Raymond", and your performance of opening a monument with one palm, is it real or fake?" After drinking for three rounds, everyone was familiar, and Binny curiously asked Xiang Nan for advice.

  He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is proficient in judo, taekwondo, aikido, etc.

  But in his opinion, opening a stele with one palm is still unimaginable, at least he is far from being able to do it himself.

  Xiang Nan smiled, "It's a mule or a horse, let's pull it out for a walk. Now, let me show off for everyone to see."

  Everyone applauded after hearing this.

  Xiang Nan immediately picked up the empty wine bottle, "Everyone pay attention~"

   As he spoke, he slapped with one palm, and there was a bang, and the bottom of the bottle shattered.

   "Wow~" Everyone cheered when they saw it.

  If the wine bottle is full, many martial artists here can smash the bottom of the bottle.

  It uses the impact of wine to break the bottom of the bottle.

  But Xiang Nan was able to achieve this effect with an empty wine bottle, which is really incredible.

   "Unbelievable, how did you do it?" Binny asked in surprise.

   Case was also shocked.

  Xiang Nan's kung fu is beyond his comprehension.

   "Chinese Kung Fu~" Xiang Nan laughed.

   "Unbelievable~" Everyone exclaimed, even Laura Fangna had a strange look in her eyes.

  …

   After dinner, everyone went to dance together.

   "Miss Fangna, can you dance with me?" Xiang Nan invited Laura Fangna.

   "You can speak Spanish?" Laura Fona asked in surprise.

   "I learned a little bit when I was in Hollywood." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "My pronunciation is pretty standard, right?"

   "Very standard." Laura nodded with a smile, and then entered the dance floor with Xiang Nan.

  Everyone looked a little envious.

  Laura Fona is the champion of the Miss Spain beauty pageant in 1979. She is blond and blue-eyed, with a slim figure and a charming beauty.

   Sammo Hung also asked her to be the heroine of the movie because of her beauty.

  At that time in Spain, everyone was busy filming, not thinking about picking up girls.

   Now he was about to strike, but Xiang Nan took the lead, which made everyone a little depressed.

  But they also knew that as long as Xiang Nan made a move, they would basically be out of business, so they had to find another project.

   Fortunately, most of them are celebrities, so it is not difficult to pick up girls.

  …

   "Charles, are you a good dancer?" Laura laughed.

   "Thank you, you dance very well." Xiang Nan also nodded.

  The two dance disco together. Laura has long hands and legs, and is beautiful and sassy. She dances naturally and beautifully, attracting the attention of the audience, making Xiang Nan's heart feel hot when she sees it.

   "Actually, you are so beautiful and have such a good temperament. You should go to Hollywood to develop. You are only filming in Spain. I really feel wronged." He said with a smile.

   "I also want to develop in Hollywood, but I don't have a chance." Laura said immediately after hearing this.

   "I'm going to shoot "Die Hard 2" in the second half of the year. If you're interested, I can arrange for you to play a role." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

  Laura's eyes widened suddenly.

   "Die Hard" was one of the top-grossing movies in Hollywood in late 1981 and early 1982, with a global box office of 140 million US dollars.

   Although "Die Hard 2" has not yet been filmed, but given the success of the first film, the second film is likely to achieve high box office. Being able to play a role in it, even if it's not the heroine, just the third female lead, the fourth female lead... It's very rare for her.

  After all, Spanish movies are completely incomparable with Hollywood. It is purely a daydream for her to make a name for herself in Spain and then go to Hollywood to film.

  So she must seize this opportunity.

   "Really?! I'm interested," she said immediately.

   "Then let's go back to the hotel and talk slowly?" Xiang Nan laughed.

  Laura nodded immediately.

  …

  Xiang Nan then took Laura back to the hotel. After a night of in-depth communication, the two got to know each other deeply.

  Xiang Nan agreed to help Laura arrange a role in "Die Hard 2", and Laura was also grateful for Xiang Nan's generosity.

   In return, Laura stayed with Xiang Nan for the next few days, so much so that the movie promotion was delayed.

   Fortunately, "Food Truck" sold well because of Jackie Chan, Yuan Biao, Sammo Hung, and the real kung fu of head-to-head, so her absence from the promotion is not a hindrance.

  In early June, "Food Truck" was officially released.

   Once it was released, the movie did well at the box office.

  On the one hand, it is a rare large-scale production of Hong Kong Films, with an investment of 15 million Hong Kong dollars, which is not something any film company dares to spend. Big productions are naturally easier to attract attention.

   On the one hand, its content is really exciting. Not only is the story novel and the fights are exciting, but also the rich exotic style, as well as the blond and blue-eyed exotic beauty, make this movie full of viewability.

  So the box office exceeded one million on the first day of its release. Judging by this momentum, it is very possible that the box office will exceed 20 million.

   This also made Jackie Chan, Yuan Biao, Sammo Hung and others breathe a sigh of relief.

   After all, this drama overruns so much, if it loses money, they can't afford it. At that time, it will be their star journey.

   Just like Chu Yuan, two years ago, the Gu Long martial arts film directed by him became popular in Taiwan, known as Chu Wanwan. Gu Long, Ti Lung, and Chu Yuan are also known as the Iron Triangle in the film industry.

  But in the past two years, the box office of the Gu Long martial arts films directed by Chu Yuan has been worse than that of the other. He was kicked out by Shaw Brothers because of this, and he didn't have to shoot a single film.

  Chuyuan Yinjian is not far away, and they don't want to repeat the same mistakes.

  …

   At the same time, in the United States, "Ghostbusters" has also begun trial screenings.

  The so-called test screening is to invite audiences and film critics to try the film before it is officially released, so as to solicit their opinions so that further arrangements can be made.

   If everyone responds well, it can be officially launched. If the response is not good enough, it will have to be re-edited, or even re-shot.

  The production cost of the movie "Ghostbusters" reached 18 million US dollars, and the follow-up special effects cost more than 10 million US dollars, a total of 30 million US dollars. Coupled with the distribution cost, it will be almost 40 million US dollars.

   If the response is not good, then Columbia Pictures will have to vomit blood. Therefore, it attaches great importance to this test screening and is ready for it.

  Xiang Nan received news of the trial screening early, but he wasn't worried at all.

  Because he knows that this "Ghostbusters" is highly completed, even better than the original. Moreover, its such a strong star lineup will make it the pinnacle of American fantasy horror films in the next twenty or thirty years.

   Therefore, instead of waiting for news by the phone like the boss of Columbia Pictures, he asked Xia Wenxi to go out to play.
