Chapter 1814: 1816 [Back to the Future]
Chapter 1814 1816 [Back to the Future]
"Don't believe the random bullets in the newspaper, it's all nonsense." Xiang Nan smiled and said to Zhong Chuhong, "I only like you, how can there be other women. It's all hype, you know, don't take it seriously .”
"Did you really not move to her house and live with her?" Zhong Chuhong asked suspiciously, "I saw a picture of you entering her house in the newspaper."
"I entered through the front door, but then exited through the back door." Xiang Nan explained, "For publicity, there must be some explosive news, and those reporters are willing to report it. Otherwise, who cares."
"Is this really the case?" Zhong Chuhong asked worriedly.
"Of course it is. How could I lie to you? If you don't believe me, come to America to see for yourself." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "It just so happens that I miss you too, so come and stay with me."
"I can't leave now, I just accepted a new play, "The Young Master Hollow" directed by Chen Xunqi." Zhong Chuhong explained.
"Alright then." Xiang Nan sighed.
"Why don't I ask for two days off to see you over there." Seeing that Xiang Nan was not in high spirits, Zhong Chuhong said hastily.
"Okay, if you don't want to ask for leave, then I'll tell Director Chen." Xiang Nan said immediately.
"No, no, I'll go." Zhong Chuhong said, "Then I'll see you in two days."
Xiang Nan nodded. After hanging up the phone, he immediately re-booked the room and prepared to move back to the hotel.
He just lied to Zhong Chuhong on the phone that he really moved into Phoebe Cates' house. After all, his advantages are not in vain.
Phoebe Cates has always maintained a high degree of exposure by relying on gossip and hype. This is a very important thing for her newcomer.
As she was worried, there are many beauties in Hollywood, and there are even more uncommon ones who dare to show off. A **** icon like her can easily be eliminated once she loses exposure.
Xiang Nan's fame helped her maintain a high exposure. In return, she naturally has to do something. This is the simplest exchange of interests.
…
Two days later, Zhong Chuhong came to the United States.
"Let's go to the crew of "Ghostbusters" first to see how Americans film." Xiang Nan went to pick up the airport in person, "Then go to the famous Sunset Boulevard, how about shopping for you?"
"No, I'm just here to see you, other things are not important." Zhong Chuhong waved his hand.
"I'm so lucky to have caught up with such a good girl like you." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go back to the hotel first."
Xiang Nan then took Zhong Chuhong back to the hotel.
After arriving at the hotel, Zhong Chuhong went to the bathroom first to check whether there was a second toothbrush, whether there was a woman's hair, whether there was a used aunt's towel, etc.
This is the gang-checking technique she learned from her friends, but the result is of course in vain. A four-star hotel has done a good job in terms of hygiene.
Furthermore, Xiang Nan's fineness will not leave obvious flaws.
After settling down, Xiang Nan took Zhong Chuhong to the crew of "Ghostbusters" and introduced Phoebe Cates and others to her.
"My girlfriend Cherie~" he introduced generously, without any concealment, "he came here from Xiangjiang to visit my class."
"Welcome, welcome~" Everyone said with a smile, and even Phoebe Cates had the same face.
This kind of open, transparent, and generous attitude made Zhong Chuhong's doubts disappear.
In her opinion, if Xiang Nan and Phoebe really have something, then she will never be so calm when she sees herself. On the contrary, since she is so calm, it is really nothing to think about.
So she was relieved, and after spending two days with Xiang Nan in the United States, she hurried back to Xiangjiang.
…
"Ghostbusters" continues filming.
At the same time, Xiang Nan also presented his second film project - "Back to the Future".
The "Back to the Future" trilogy is one of the most classic IPs in Hollywood in the 1980s. It not only achieved a box office of nearly one billion US dollars, but the most important thing is that it has also become a part of American culture.
For example, the Nike shoes that appeared in "Back to the Future 2" are currently auctioned at 810,000 yuan per pair; "Back to the Future 2" sets the future time as October 21, 2015. This day is also called "Back to the Future Day" by movie fans, and quite grand celebrations were held.
Even the U.S. presidential election used the lines of the characters in the film to promote it, which shows how successful the film is.
Such an opportunity to make a fortune, Xiang Nan naturally wouldn't miss it.
The "Back to the Future" project was quickly recognized by the industry, and even Disney Pictures wanted to invest in this movie.
You must know that Disney’s investment is very prudent. If it is not fully sure of making money, it will never spend real money.
Throughout the 1980s, Disney didn’t produce many movies, and it always focused on remaking its own animation IP.
Although this made it miss a lot of opportunities, it also avoided its losses. Therefore, throughout the 1980s, Disney's financial situation was the healthiest.
Unlike Paramount, Columbia, Universal, Fox and other companies, they are almost bankrupt.
Xiang Nan finally chose to cooperate with Fox Films.
The reason is very simple. Only Fox Pictures agrees to the conditions he offered.
His condition is to get 15% of the box office share, and video tapes, games, peripheral products, etc. also account for 10% of the revenue.
This income ratio makes him almost on an equal footing with the six major film industry giants. Naturally, apart from Fox Films, which has the worst operating conditions, no giant agrees to such a bold condition.
…
In January, "Police Story 2" was released during the Spring Festival.
Although it is a sequel, compared with the first one, "Police Story 2" is not inferior at all, and there is no suspicion of a sequel.
Moreover, because of the confidence in Xiang Nan, the investment in this movie is larger and the scene is more popular. There are two big explosion scenes alone, one bombing a supermarket and one bombing a factory, both of which are rare big scenes in Hong Kong movies.
Because of this, its box office is still good. It only stopped when it reached 27 million Hong Kong dollars, and it almost broke the record of 30 million Hong Kong dollars. This also made other Xiangjiang artists envious.
Especially Liu Jiaban and Yuan Jiaban, who were pretty good before, were all dumbfounded seeing Xiang Nan filming like this.
They all played kung fu movies like Xiang Nan before. Because the investment is only a few hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars, the scenes are very small, and the competition is nothing more than fist and kick. Whoever is better at fighting is more likely to get angry.
But now Xiang Nan is fighting for both fist and foot, but also for appearance. Even if he is better at playing than him, it is not easy to get a high box office if he is not as big as him. Just like "Eighteen Kinds of Martial Arts", which Liu Jialiang worked so hard to film, didn't even win the box office of 5 million.
In this way, their life will be difficult.
The less their films sell, the less companies dare to invest money in them. The less money they have, the less they can make a good movie and compete with Xiang Nan.
This becomes a vicious circle.
