Chapter 1831: 1833【Black Pearl】
Chapter 1831 1833 [Black Pearl]
In the next few days, Xiang Nan mainly took Cong Shan around to see the world.
Los Angeles is much more prosperous and open than Xiangjiang, which really opened Cong Shan's horizons.
"Hey, why is that man's hair in strands?"
"That's called dreadlocks, and it's in fashion."
"Hey, why is she wearing her underwear outside?"
"It's called underwear, and it's also fashionable."
"Hey, why isn't she wearing anything on her lower body?"
"That's called missing clothes, and it's also fashionable."
"Hey, why everything is fashion, it's really unacceptable." Cong Shan said with emotion, feeling that the Americans are too unconventional and weird, which really makes her dislike it.
"Just get used to it." Xiang Nan smiled, "The biggest advantage of living here is that as long as you don't affect others, you can do whatever you want.
You can wear whatever you want, eat whatever you want, drink whatever you want, live whatever you want, no one can control you. "
"If no one cares, you can do whatever you want, wouldn't everything be messed up?" Cong Shan asked in surprise.
"If it's messed up, it's none of our business." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled.
It is true that some places in Los Angeles are quite chaotic, especially those areas where black people gather. For example, Compton, where the well-known hip-hop group NWA was born, is known as the city of violence, with thousands of violent crimes every year.
However, Beverly Hills is a luxury residential area, and those who live here are either rich or expensive, so the police here are also very responsible.
After all, the American police serve the capital, and there are police patrols here day and night. As long as it is an unfamiliar face, even if it stays a little longer, it will be questioned and searched by the police.
"Unbelievable." Cong Shan said with emotion.
…
Xiang Nan accompanied Cong Shan for half a month, took her to the Grand Canyon, to Las Vegas, to Yellowstone Park, to the Great Lakes, to the Statue of Liberty...
After Cong Shan returned to the mainland, he was busy working on "Lethal Weapon".
This film has an investment of 30 million US dollars, but it is a big project, and there is no room for loss.
"Danny Grove is very suitable, so let's appoint him." Xiang Nan confirmed his partner.
Danny Grove, born in 1946, made his debut in the 1970s, and has starred in a large number of film and television dramas. Although he has never played a leading role, nor has he had any particularly successful works, but the reputation in the circle is very good.
Everyone knows he can act, and if a black man is needed in a play, he is generally recommended. Just like those green leaves in Hong Kong dramas, there are three aunts and six wives, and there will be a fixed number of people.
"Tracey Murdoch's candidate, Charles, I have a good recommendation~" the casting director said.
"Let's take a look." Xiang Nan nodded.
He is only responsible for deciding the main role, and most of the other casting is handed over to his subordinates. After all, he is not a superman, and he cannot do everything by himself.
And everyone has three relatives and two thick. As long as the choice is not too bad, he is willing to be considerate. After all, if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if people observe it, there will be no disciples.
The casting director then handed over a document.
Xiang Nan opened it and was taken aback for a moment. He saw that the person on the file was Halle Berry, who was called the Black Pearl.
At the end of the 90s and the beginning of the 21st century, she was definitely considered the top of Hollywood.
Storm in "X-Men", Jinx in "007: Die Another Day", Jin Jieer in "Operation Swordfish"...all left a deep impression on people.
It is said that when Pierce Brosnan heard that she was a Bond girl, he specifically asked MGM to include a **** scene clause in his contract. It can be seen how attractive she is.
But now Halle Berry is still a little transparent. Looking at her resume, she has only worked as a model for a while and has shot a few unknown commercials.
"She looks pretty good." Xiang Nan nodded, "Well, since it was recommended by you, let her try."
"Okay, thank you Charles." The casting director nodded.
…
In December, "Best Partner 3" was officially released.
This drama is more elaborately produced, has a broader vision, and has a more international perspective. Whether it is the joining of the Bond girls or the shooting in Paris, France, it all illustrates this point.
Moreover, the action scenes in the film are more thrilling and grander. In particular, Xiang Nan's long jump from a 20-story building made the audience hooked.
Therefore, after its release, the box office has been rising steadily, setting off a new round of movie-watching boom.
In the end, the film took over 32 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office, surpassing the box office record of "Fuxing Gaozhao" starring Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, and Yuan Biao. uncle.
However, Sammo Hung is not bad this year. In addition to "Fuxing Gaozhao", he also starred in "Owl and Dumbo", and produced "The Brave Double Cannon", "The Brave Double Cannon 2: Double Dragon Going to Sea", etc., all of which won more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars box office.
So on the whole, Sammo Hung is actually the filmmaker with the highest cumulative box office in 1984.
…
At the end of December, "Lethal Weapon" officially started filming.
Xiangnan also met Halle Berry for the first time.
At the age of eighteen, she is indeed youthful and invincible. With a pure smile, firm skin, and a well-proportioned figure, it is no wonder that she participated in the Miss America beauty pageant and won the sixth place.
Xiang Nan wasn't very interested in black people at first, but after seeing her, he couldn't help but twitch his index finger.
But he is not in a hurry, anyway, with his current status, no matter who he looks at, it is just a matter of pointing fingers.
"Charles, I really like your movies. I really like you in "Die Hard", "Die Hard", "Ghostbusters". Even the movies you made in Xiangjiang, I really like watching them "As soon as we met, Halle Berry said to Xiang Nan familiarly.
Since Xiang Nan became famous, his box office appeal has been astonishing, and each movie has a box office of over 100 million US dollars. But he has a limited number of films a year, only one or two.
So in order to make more money, Hollywood giants specially introduced Xiang Nan's films made in Xiangjiang, such as "Drunken Master", "Junior and Brother", "Best Partner", "Police Story" and so on to the United States.
Those kung fu movies and action movies, although the investment is not large, at best they are B-movie standards in the United States. But it can't stand the novel theme and rich imagination.
For example, in "Police Story", Xiang Nan drove a car into a shantytown, took an umbrella and jumped a bus, and jumped a light pole in a supermarket. These plots are not something American filmmakers can shoot, because they are too dangerous.
Coupled with the name of Xiang Nan, they actually sold a lot of money, and the worst ones had tens of millions of dollars at the box office. For example, "Police Story" sold more than 30 million US dollars, making Golden Harvest happy and crazy.
"You don't need to say too much about flattery. If you want to make me happy, just show it well." Xiang Nan laughed.
Halle Berry nodded immediately.
