Chapter 2006 2008 [more red]

  Jackie Chan couldn't help being very moved when he saw that Xiang Nan had re-arranged a new film project for himself.

   "Mr. Ning, thank you, I thought you didn't need me anymore." He said to Xiang Nan.

"How could it be, Brother Long, you and I are the pride of Chinese descent, a big banner in Hollywood, how could I give up on you." Xiang Nan comforted him, "Not only will I continue to use you, but I will also continue to use you. Try to make you more angry."

   "Yeah." Jackie Chan nodded movedly, deeply regretting the previous complaints against Xiang Nan.

  In addition to starring Jackie Chan, Xiang Nan also arranged for Owen Wilson to play his partner Roy.

  Owen Wilson made his debut in the 1990s, and later starred in "Meet Your Father-in-Law" and "Wedding Crashers" all achieved very high box office. He is now a Hollywood actor with considerable box office appeal.

  Xiang Nan asked him to partner with Jackie Chan, as a match for Jackie Chan, which can not only boost the box office appeal, but also help Jackie Chan raise his coffee, killing two birds with one stone.

  In addition, Huang Shengyi is going to star in Daqing Gege. With her good looks, it is quite convincing to play the role of Daqing Gege who escaped from marriage.

  …

  In January, Xiang Nan took his family home to visit relatives as usual.

  In January, Universal Pictures also released Matt Damon's action film "Bourne 2", which tells the story of Bourne's resolute resistance and search for the truth after being hunted down.

  Compared with the previous work, the investment of this one is larger, the story is more twists and turns, and suspense abounds. Therefore, the box office performance is much better than the previous one.

  In the end, the North American box office was 180 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office was nearly 400 million U.S. dollars, making a good start for Universal Pictures.

  In February, Universal Pictures released "Princess Diaries 2" starring Anne Hathaway. It tells the story of Princess Mia who has to follow the ancestral precepts and find a suitable husband within 30 days in order to successfully inherit the throne.

  The film continues the relaxed, humorous and funny style of the previous film, and after five years of precipitation, Anne Hathaway's acting skills are getting better and better.

   Therefore, in the end, the box office of "Princess Diaries 2" was not bad, with a North American box office of 50 million US dollars and a global box office of 108 million US dollars, which is considered a blockbuster.

  …

  In the same month, after spending the Spring Festival with his family, Xiang Nan brought his family to Xiangjiang.

  At this time, Huang Shengyi had already received the invitation from the crew of "Shanghai Noon", which made her very happy, so she came here to express her gratitude to Xiang Nan.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "Going to Hollywood to film this time will really test your acting skills, your adaptability, and your language ability. How is your English level? Can you carry on a conversation fluently? ?”

   "Hmm..." Huang Shengyi hesitated for a moment.

"You'd better hire a tutor and polish it well. After all, when you go to Hollywood to film, the crew basically speaks English. If your language skills are not strong, you don't understand what they say, and you don't understand what they say. Then you won't be able to stand up in Hollywood." Xiang Nan reminded.

  For Chinese actors to develop in Hollywood, they have to pass the language barrier first. If you can't pass this test, you don't need to talk about development anymore.

  Huang Shengyi nodded immediately.

  …

  Xiang Nan then asked Liang Luoshi to drink tea.

  Liang Luoshi was born in 1988. He participated in the Super Girl Voice Competition in 2004 and won the championship in one fell swoop. After that, he was signed by Asia Records and made his debut.

  Because of her pure and sweet appearance, she became a popular girl idol after her debut, and she is still very popular in Xiangjiang.

   "Mr. Ning~" Seeing Xiang Nan, Liang Luoshi was a little cautious.

   "Don't be nervous, I invite you here today, just to chat and talk." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Don't think of me as your boss, just treat me as an ordinary friend."

   "Don't dare." Liang Luoshi waved his hands quickly.

  She is now an artist under Asia Records, and also has a film contract with Real Kung Fu Films, and both companies belong to Xiang Nan, so she really doesn't have the courage to treat Xiang Nan as an ordinary friend.

  Xiang Nan chuckled, but didn't force it, "I've been planning to shoot a few films recently, and one of them, Daredevil 3, needs an Asian face. I think you are suitable, do you want to think about it?"

   "Of course." Liang Luoshi nodded immediately upon hearing this.

   "Daredevil" is starring Ben Affleck. In recent years, two films have been released in a row, and the box office is very popular, even setting off an upsurge of comic book movies.

  If she starred in this movie, she would also be eligible to be promoted to an international movie star.

   "Okay, then it's settled." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "However, you need to practice hard. Because in this movie, you have many fighting scenes. I hope you can perform well."

  Liang Luoshi nodded upon hearing this.

  …

  In March, Xiang Nan brought people back to the United States and began preparations for "Fast and Furious 3".

  He originally wanted to ask Gal Gadot to play the role of Gizelle, but she had no choice but to enlist in the army at this time, and it was impossible to escape from the army to film, so Xiang Nan had to find someone else.

   He then picked Alexandra Daddario. She was born in 1986 and made her debut in 2001. She is a well-known beauty in Hollywood. She not only has a very high appearance, but also has an outstanding figure.

  Bold performance in the American drama "True Detective" has attracted countless attention. It's a pity that her acting skills are not very good, so she has debuted for many years and has no representative works. She only acts as a screaming girl in small and medium-budget horror films, and shows off her figure by the way.

  However, in "Fast and Furious 3", she played just a vase, without much character depth. It is expected that with her acting skills, she should have no problem completing this role.

  Alexandra Daddario was also very happy when she heard the news of her successful competition. She immediately reported to the crew and learned fighting skills with Xiang Nan, Liang Luoshi and others to prepare for the next filming.

  She plays Gizer, an assistant to the drug lord, who is proficient in firearms and fighting skills. Therefore, before the filming starts, she needs to go through a period of training, at least to show a shrewd and capable look.

  In the process of learning, the relationship between her, Liang Luoshi and Xiang Nan is naturally advancing by leaps and bounds.

On the one hand, it is due to Xiang Nan's charm. Big stars, rich men, and great talents are not ugly or greasy, but they are also very friendly, and the charm of mature men is naturally very attractive to little girls. is attractive.

  On the one hand, when practicing fighting skills, physical contact and brushing are inevitable. Wipe it back and forth, and sparks will easily pop out. Therefore, in ancient China, male masters rarely accepted female apprentices, and female masters rarely accepted male apprentices.

  …

   And during the preparation period, the Oscars ceremony came as scheduled.

  In this year's awards ceremony, "King Kong" was shortlisted for many technical awards, but it's a pity that "Brokeback Mountain" didn't come to the theater in time, otherwise, this movie must be a hit.
