Save the Bachelor of Heaven

   Chapter 1815 1817 [A big gift]

  The preparations for "Back to the Future" and the filming of "Ghostbusters" were carried out simultaneously.

   "Back to the Future" tells the story of the young Martin who accidentally traveled back to thirty years ago, matched his parents, and changed the fate of his family.

  Although the theme of time travel was not new at the time. But "Back to the Future" is a hit largely because it hits the American nostalgia psyche.

   Entering the 1980s, the US economy grew slowly, the unemployment rate remained high, and inflation was very serious. Under such circumstances, it is easy for the public to miss the good old days.

  It’s like there are so many bad movies in mainland China, so fans miss Hong Kong movies in the 1980s and 1990s.

   And Martin traveled back to 1955, which was the golden age in the hearts of the American people. Movies unintentionally fit this psychology, which is why they have become phenomenal hits.

   It was as if "Wolf Warrior 2" hit the patriotism of the Chinese people, so the box office exploded, exceeding everyone's expectations.

  In this movie, Xiang Nan will not act in person.

   After all, he is of Chinese descent, starring in this movie is a bit embarrassing. Americans probably don't want to see Xiang Nan, a Chinese, taking them back to the golden years of the 1950s.

  It’s like Chinese people don’t want to see a certain blond foreigner represent Chinese people in the war in "Wolf Warrior 2". As soon as the color of the skin changes, the taste changes completely.

   Therefore, Xiang Nan only acts as producer and screenwriter.

  In order to ensure the quality of the movie, he basically used the original crew.

  For example, the male lead is Michael Fox and Christopher Lloyd, the female lead is Lee Thompson, and the director is Robert Zemeckis.

  At this time, most of them are unknown people, at most second- and third-tier, so after receiving the invitation, they are very happy to play.

  …

  In April, "Ghostbusters" was officially completed.

  In fact, it doesn’t have a lot of shooting content, and the main reason is that the production of special effects takes time. It is estimated that just those few minutes of special effects will cost nearly 15 million US dollars, which is a gold swallowing beast.

  After the film was finished, Xiang Nan bid farewell to Tom Hanks, Nicolas Cage, Tom Cruise, Jim Carrey, etc., and then returned to the mainland by plane.

  Since returning to the mainland in July last year, he hasn't visited the mainland for nearly a year now.

  After returning to the mainland, I went to meet my parents first.

  Qi Aihong has retired, and Ning Weiguo is still in office, but he is no longer in charge of specific work.

  The two usually just look after their children, raise cats, and feed fish. They live a leisurely and comfortable life.

  The only thing to worry about is the marriage of the youngest son.

   "Xiaowei, you are not young anymore, when will you get married?" Qi Aihong asked with concern.

   "Mom, don't worry about it. Are you afraid that your son won't find a partner?" Xiang Nan laughed.

"I'm afraid you'll be confused." Qi Aihong explained, "Actually, Cong Shan's child is pretty good. During the days when you were away, she often came to visit us, cook for us, and talk with us... My father and I They both like her, or the two of you can handle the formalities."

   "I said yes." Ning Weiguo nodded, "You two have been together for almost six years. You know each other well, so what's the delay?

   You kid don't want to admit it, I tell you, if you dare to do that, I will give you a discount on your legs. People from our old Ning family can't do such wicked things. "

"Dad, what did you say? How could I do such a vile thing." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "I absolutely love Shanshan, but I'm only twenty-five this year. It's my career. In the golden period of development, there is no time and energy to run a family. After you wait for my career to stabilize, of course I will marry her, so you don't have to worry about it, I know it."

   "I have counted, I have counted, you are going to disappoint such a good girl, you see, I will not break your legs." Ning Weiguo said angrily.

   "Okay, my son has finally come back, so don't keep getting angry with him." Qi Aihong urged quickly.

  Xiang Nan nodded, "Okay, I'll go find Shanshan now."

  …

  Xiang Nan then went to find Cong Shan.

   "I'm sorry, I've been really busy this year, and I didn't take time to see you. It's all my fault." When we met, he first apologized.

   "Okay, I don't blame you." Cong Shan waved his hands and said, "You must have worked hard this year, your face was tanned a lot."

  Xiang Nan nodded, "That's right, I'm really tired because I'm busy filming. By the way, how are you doing now? Has your relationship with your teachers and classmates eased?"

   "Well, your teaching method is really good." Cong Shan nodded.

  Before, she was excluded by her classmates and teachers because of the filming of "The Wrangler". After that, according to the method taught by Xiang Nan, she used money to open the way, and bought a dinner today, a snack tomorrow, and a drink the day after tomorrow...

  The so-called short-handed, cannibalism. Especially in the early 1980s, material resources were very scarce, and the power of money was naturally greater.

  So within a few days, Cong Shan won over a large group of friends and formed a small circle with her as the core. In this way, not only will she no longer be excluded, she will even be able to exclude others.

   Fortunately, she was kind by nature and didn't do that. However, those who used to exclude her are afraid to stab her anymore. Otherwise, they will be the unlucky ones.

   "That's good." Xiang Nan nodded, "You still have one year to graduate. After you graduate, I will give you a big gift."

   "Okay." Cong Shan nodded.

  …

  Xiang Nan then returned to Xiangjiang.

  At this time, "The Negotiator" starring Wang Jing, Guan Zhilin, Yan Niu, etc. is in theaters.

  The box office of this horror film is still good. With an investment of less than one million Hong Kong dollars, it has already won more than four million Hong Kong dollars at the box office.

   According to estimates, it will not be a problem to win 7 million in the end.

  For a horror film, such a result is not bad.

  The popularity of this movie also allowed Guan Zhilin to come out successfully and won the favor of many film companies.

  But she chooses east and west, and she really doesn't know which movie to choose.

   "Just choose this one." Xiang Nan helped her choose "The Frog Prince".

  That is a new work that Wang Jing is preparing. It tells the story of Chen Lipin, the son of a rich man, who, in order to investigate the corruption incident of the branch manager, switches identities with his friend Rolando to go undercover in the company, and finally falls in love with the company staff.

   It's still a romantic comedy, but it's better because the story is lively enough, and I believe it can get a good box office.

  …

  After returning to Xiangjiang, Xiang Nan also began to prepare for the filming of "Best Partner 2", which will be released during the Spring Festival.

   "Best Partner 2" tells the story of King Kong being chased and killed by his white-gloved brother, black gloves. It is lively and exciting. In real life, this film once again earned more than 23 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office. Although it was not as good as the first film, it was still the box office champion of the year.

  The preparatory process of "Best Partner 2" is relatively smooth. The original cast, except for Guan Zhilin, almost all returned, except for a glamorous heroine.
