Chapter 1835 1837 [the last part]

   Halle Berry knew that those who had rumored affairs with Xiang Nan, such as Brooke Shields, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Kim Cattrall, had done well in recent years.

   Many of Xiang Nan's movies have them starred in them. This allows them to always achieve high box office and maintain their status as Hollywood's first-line movie stars.

  So from this point of view, it is not a loss to follow Xiang Nan.

   After all, there are many liars in Hollywood, who falsely claim that they have connections and funds, and can help people become famous in one fell swoop. But in fact, they often cheat money and sex.

  Those young people who dreamed of being a star were deceived into willingly giving everything, but in the end they got nothing. This is no news in Hollywood.

   Therefore, Halle Berry is very happy to be able to hold this thick skirt. In order to hold her tighter, she did not hesitate to use her best skills.

  …

  In April, Xiang Nan returned to Xiangjiang.

  At this time, Jackie Chan has already prepared a new work - "Dragon Brother Tiger Brother".

   This movie tells the story of the treasure hunter Asia Flying Eagle looking for God to arm and rescue his friends.

  In the 1980s, with the advent of "Raiders of the Lost Ark", movies about treasure hunting became popular.

  Hollywood has launched "The Emerald", "The Jewel of the Nile", "The Goonies" and other similar films in recent years, and they have all achieved good box office.

  The Xiangjiang filmmakers are the smartest, they are good at learning from foreigners and learning from others, so Jackie Chan thought of making a treasure hunting movie. And this time, he plans to go out of Xiangjiang, go to the world, and shoot in Eastern Europe, further highlighting the superstar demeanor.

  Xiang Nan was very supportive of this, "Okay, Aaron, if you want to succeed, you have to dare to fight, dare to break through, dare to be bold. Come on, I support you!"

  Jackie Chan was very moved by what Xiang Nan said.

  He was a little worried at first, this trip to Eastern Europe to shoot scenes would cost too much money, and Xiang Nan would stop him. He never expected that he was so enlightened, which really made him so happy.

  …

  In April, Wang Jing also launched a new work - "Shen Yong Sister Mark", which tells the story of two cousins, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, who together managed to capture a robber.

   This movie starred Zheng Yuling and Maggie Cheung. After it was released, it earned more than seven million Hong Kong dollars at the box office, which is not bad.

  However, in the past two years, the box office of Xiangjiang movies has been increasing year by year. Seven million Hong Kong dollars, in the early 1980s, could still be considered a high box office.

   Now, the box office of a movie is less than 10 million, which is no longer considered a big hit. Therefore, Wang Jing was also a little worried, afraid that she might be dying.

"Don't worry, Director Wang, I'll show you the way." Xiang Nan smiled, "Action movies are king now, and in the field of male action movies, you basically can't get in. Then why don't you try female action movies? Woolen cloth?"

   "Female action movie?" Wang Jing blinked, "Can it work?"

  Xiangjiang has been popular for a while, such as Zheng Peipei, Xu Feng, Mao Yan, Shangguan Lingfeng and so on.

  However, with the rise of male action superstars such as Xiang Nan, Jackie Chan, and Sammo Hung, these chivalrous women have lost their market one after another.

   After all, men have more advantages in terms of physical strength. Fighting is more masculine, fiercer, and more destructive, and it naturally looks more enjoyable.

   "Why not?" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Isn't the Rafflesia in Sammo Hung's "Lucky Stars" very popular? We can make a movie with the Rafflesia as the main character with her as the center.

  Didn't I film "Police Academy" last year, which was very popular. We filmed a similar story. For example, the police wanted to set up a female special police team to protect the female guests who came to Hong Kong, and Bawanghua was the instructor.

   Find another group of female artists, beautiful and funny. Find another group of male artists to play the Flying Tigers, train with them, fall in love, and finally solve problems together. I think this story is interesting, what do you think? "

  Wang Jing was very moved after hearing this.

  The Overlord Flower played by Hu Huizhong received a good response from the audience. It shows that there is still a market for female stars.

   It's just a female star, and you can't follow the route of a male star. On the one hand, because of her image and physique, no matter how good an actress can be, she appears to be more feminine and has no deterrent effect.

  For example, Hui Yinghong, Michelle Yeoh, Li Saifeng, and Luo Fuluo are all capable of playing, but compared with male stars, their movements still look fancy.

  On the one hand, it doesn’t matter how badly a male star is beaten on the screen. For example, Jackie Chan has been beaten into a pig’s head many times, with a bruised nose and a swollen face. The audience can bear it and expect him to rise. But the audience couldn't bear to see the female star being beaten into a pig's head.

   Therefore, it is quite difficult for female stars to take the desperate route of male stars.

   It might as well be like Xiang Nan said, action, funny and pick up girls, I believe the audience will like it.

  …

  In addition to giving Wang Jing the idea of ​​"The Overlord Flower", Xiang Nan also agreed to Liu Guanwei's "Mr. Zombie" project.

  Liu Guanwei was originally a member of the Hong family class and a photographer. In 1981, Xiang Nan needed a large number of photographers to shoot "Police Story", so he was recruited.

   Later, Xiang Nan also promoted him to be the executive director of "Best Partner 2". Because this movie achieved a high box office, Liu Guanwei also successfully became a regular and became a director.

  In the past two years, I have also made some movies, such as "Learning Chinatown", "The Demon Hunter", "Phoenix and Dragon" and so on. Although it is not a big seller, it has accumulated a wealth of experience and has grown.

  Liu Guanwei's uncle is a Taoist priest, who reads Fengshui for others, criticizes horoscopes, and selects yin houses... He has been fascinated by it since he was a child, and he has more feelings for this aspect.

  In addition to the early 1980s, psychic action movies were in vogue. Many films such as "Scary People", "Ghosts Fight Ghosts" and "People Scary Ghosts" have achieved good box office.

  So Liu Guanwei asked someone to write a story about "Mr. Zombie", and planned to take a look at it.

   "Okay." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Just go and shoot, I fully support you."

  When Liu Guanwei heard this, he was naturally overjoyed, and immediately began to prepare.

  …

   While everyone was busy, Xiang Nan also began to prepare his own "Best Partner 4".

   "Best Partner 4", as expected, will be his last film in Xiangjiang.

  After this movie, he completely withdrew from the Xiangjiang film industry and devoted himself to working hard in Hollywood.

   This is also to make way for newcomers. Otherwise, with the pressure of the old people like them, when will the newcomers come to the fore.

   "Best Partner 4" Xiang Nan still uses the original cast, but the heroine to partner with him still needs to be found again.

   Just like 007, his female partner also has to change every movie.

  The French beauty Carol Bouquet was used last time, and Xiang Nan plans to use foreign actresses this time. After selection, he chose Nicole Kidman, a rising star in Australian history.

  Nicole Kidman was born in 1967 and is just eighteen years old this year. She debuted in 1983, and now she is just an unknown artist.
