Save the Bachelor of Heaven

   Chapter 1791 1793 [Popular Fried Chicken]

  Xiang Nan returned to Xiangjiang to continue filming "Police Story".

  At this time, because of the "Longwei Boy" he starred in, the total box office has exceeded 30 million US dollars, which is directly catching up with Bruce Lee back then, so his fame and status in Xiangjiang have risen to a higher level.

  Back to the crew, when those people saw him, their attitudes changed slightly.

  They were of course close to him before. But now it's more respectful, almost flattering.

  Xiang Nan understood after thinking about it.

  The so-called people go to high places, and water flows to low places.

  But there is no filmmaker who does not want to go to Hollywood to develop, it just depends on whether he can or cannot.

  Xiang Nan has established a firm foothold in Hollywood now, and is capable of supporting their past development.

   But there are too many monks and too few porridge, so it depends on the distance of the relationship.

  So they all want to please Xiang Nan.

   Xiang Nan has no objection to this.

  He will definitely bring Xiangjiang filmmakers to Hollywood for development in the future.

  On the one hand, it is easy for your own people to use; on the other hand, everyone earns money, which is also the responsibility of being a big brother.

  As long as they are loyal and hard-working enough, it doesn't matter if they help.

  …

   "Brother Viagra, you are really amazing. You actually chased Brooke Shields. I heard that she is known as the eighth wonder of the world. Looking at the photos, she is really beautiful." Curry flattered.

   "Yes, a foreign girl is well-developed. I read in the newspaper that she is only fifteen years old, and she is so mature, my dear." Tai Bao also said.

   "Boji Shields is so beautiful, she was still taken down by Viagra, so Viagra is the most powerful." Huo Huo laughed.

  They were all recruited by Xiang Nan when he was filming "Police Story". Because the scenes of "Police Story" are much larger than previous kung fu movies, more martial artists are needed. So Huo Huo, Taibao, Curry and other martial artists were all recruited.

  As a man, when work is over, the conversation is nothing more than eating, drinking and having fun.

   "Actually, she is prettier in real life than in photos." Xiang Nan laughed.

  Top beauties are like this, not only with face, figure, but also charm. And the content that the photos can show is too little.

   "It's just that my affair with her is fake, it's purely for hype." He explained with a smile again.

   "So that's how it is." When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized.

   No wonder Xiang Nan didn't bring her back when he returned to Hong Kong, the rumors of love affairs are all fake.

   "However, Viagra, with your ingenuity, wisdom, martial arts and wisdom, you are more than enough to match her." Qian Yuesheng laughed, "It is her loss that she doesn't follow you."

   "Yes, yes~" Everyone agreed unanimously.

  Xiang Nan also laughed when he heard this.

  …

   During the filming of "Police Story", Cong Shan's college entrance examination results were officially announced.

  Her grades are very good, far exceeding the admission thresholds of Chinese opera and Beijing Film Academy, which also allowed her to successfully enter the Chinese opera.

  Xiang Nan sent a special telegram to congratulate her after learning about it.

   In addition, the screening of Wang Jing's "A Thousand Kings Fighting Thousand Tyrants" also ended. It was released for 21 days, and the total box office was 4.5 million Hong Kong dollars. For a new director, such a result can be said to be quite ideal.

   Because of this, Wang Jing has successfully gained a foothold in the film industry, which also makes him very excited, so he immediately came up with a new script, hoping that Xiang Nan would allow him to start filming.

  After some screening, Xiang Nan finally chose "Ghost Horse Flying Man".

  Wang Jing likes to follow the trend when filming, and shoots whichever movie is popular.

  Warner released the "Superman" movie in 1978, which became popular all over the world. The sequel launched this year has continued the previous popularity and once again dominated the film industry. So he prepared to make a Hong Kong version of "Superman".

  But Wang Jing was born as a joke writer for "Happy Tonight", and his movies are always inseparable from jokes and spoofs. Therefore, the Hong Kong version of Superman is not only not as heroic and invincible as the American version, but on the contrary is still funny and full of jokes.

  Xiang Nan felt that this movie was very creative, so he supported him to make this movie, and also suggested Chow Yun-fat and Zhong Chuhong to star in it.

  Zhou Run discovered that with the success of "A Thousand Kings Fighting a Thousand Tyrants", he had initially shaken off the notoriety of box office poison; and Zhong Chuhong was directly signed into the company by Xiang Nan when he took over "Police Story".

   These two are the stars who will become popular in the future, so naturally they have to be praised.

   "Tiger Shaking Tooth" starring Jackie Chan did well at the box office after its release, and finally won 3.2 million Hong Kong dollars.

   This also made Luo Wei very happy, and immediately transferred him back and arranged for him to star in the Kung Fu movie "Eight Steps of Snake and Crane".

  Jackie Chan got the script and cried immediately.

  Such an old-fashioned script, even if it was filmed ten years ago, it would be outdated. Let him play the leading role now, clearly wanting him to die.

   This also made him more determined to leave Rowe Films.

  …

  "Police Story" started to be filmed in July, and it was not officially completed until December.

  To give an example, there are more than a dozen martial arts masters in the Ning family class, who work almost every day, and some of them are admitted to the hospital. Mars, who was the most injured, fell from the elevator and went straight into shock. He was sent to the hospital, and he woke up after three hours of emergency treatment, which shows the extent of the tragedy,

  However, it is also because everyone sacrificed their lives that the action scenes of "Police Story" are both thrilling and exciting. Although everyone has not seen the finished film yet, everyone believes that it will be a blockbuster.

   And just as "Police Story" was finished, "Longwei Boy" also ended its second round of screenings.

  In the United States, movies usually go through two rounds of screenings.

  The first round of screenings will be in mainstream large theaters, such as luxury theaters in downtown areas, with large venues, new equipment, complete configurations, and high prices, suitable for middle-class consumption.

  Second-run screenings are usually at community theaters. These theaters are generally distributed in Chinatowns, slums, or schools. The venues are small, the equipment is old, the equipment is poor, and the price is low. They are suitable for consumption by the poor.

  Such a differentiated distribution method can squeeze consumers' wallets to the maximum extent. It's like the advanced on-demand video launched by a certain video website.

  After the two rounds of screenings, the cumulative box office of "Longwei Boy" reached an astonishing $80 million.

  It turns out that the poor in the United States are dominated by people of color. They admired Xiang Nan, an Asian who slapped a white villain, and a beautiful girl named Brooke Shields, so they went to the theater to express their support.

  The first round of "Longwei Boy" had a total box office of about 45 million U.S. dollars. I originally thought that it would be good if it could get 20 million U.S. dollars in the second round of screenings.

   After all, the consumption power of the poor class is not at the same level as that of the middle class. Unexpectedly, this film would be so popular among people of color, and the second round of screenings was so good, which is rare in Hollywood.

   And with such a high box office performance, Xiang Nan has become a hot fried chicken in Hollywood in one fell swoop. In terms of popularity, it is even comparable to Mark Hamill who starred in "Star Wars".

   It is precisely because of this that major Hollywood companies have taken a fancy to his potential and want to cooperate with him one after another, and they will not hesitate to hand over large projects with investment exceeding tens of millions.

  It is completely different from the previous small projects that invested millions of dollars.

  However, Xiang Nan is still considering which one to pick up.

  …
