Save the Bachelor of Heaven

   Chapter 1971 1973 [True Lies 2]

  Xiang Nan then arranged the roles.

"X-Men" starring Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, etc.; Russell Crowe was used, and Xiang Nan planned to use Mel Gibson; the original version of "Listening to a Woman's Heart" was Mel Gibson, and Xiang Nan wanted to replace it with Brad Pitt.

   "Meet the Father-in-Law", "Princess Diaries" and "Resident Evil", Xiang Nan wanted to use the original cast. Milla Jovovich's Alice was replaced by Ali Larter.

  As for "Secret Agent Belle", the original version was played by Sandra Bullock. Her acting skills are fresh and natural, and she is proficient. She once won the Oscar for Best Actress.

  But Xiang Nan has no interest in her. After consideration, he decided to use Charlize Theron to play the role.

   Charlize Theron is not only beautiful, but also an acting school. She won the Oscar for Best Actress for her disfigured performance in "The Devil".

  After the roles are determined, the filming of each movie officially starts.

  …

  In the same month, Xiang Nan gave James Cameron two scripts.

  One is the script of "True Lies 2" and the other is the script of "Terminator 3".

   "True Lies 2" continues to tell the story of Agent Harry fighting against dangerous elements. In the previous work, his identity has been exposed in front of his wife and daughter, and his wife has also joined his organization to engage in dangerous missions with him.

  In this part, in order to fit the theme of [True Lies], Xiang Nan brought out his father-in-law, mother-in-law, father, and mother, and told about a family traveling together in the Middle East.

   As a result, the hero and heroine suddenly received a mission and were ordered to investigate a dangerous element. As a result, they had to work hard to conceal their identities while carrying out their tasks, which naturally created countless jokes.

  Finally, they found out the conspiracy of the dangerous elements and learned that they were going to hijack the airliner to attack the United States, so the hero and heroine had to take immediate action. What's more troublesome is that their identities were exposed and their parents were taken hostage by dangerous elements.

   Thus, an aerial battle started again...

   "True Lies 2" has both a thrilling conspiracy and a humorous family comedy. And Xiang Nan also specifically alluded to the Jiu Yaoyao incident... If Jiu Yaoyao still happened, then this "True Lies 2" will become a magical movie.

   "Terminator 3" is mainly about the growth of John Connor.

  At the end of the story of "Terminator 2", he was forced to flee to South America with his mother Sarah Connor because of his involvement in the cyber company bombing.

   While in South America, he met a beautiful and lovely girl, and gradually fell under her temptation. He was tired of the life of fleeing, and he didn't want to take on the fate of saving the world anymore.

But I didn't expect that the girl turned out to be a TX robot. The reason why he approached John Connor and caused him to fall was because Skynet discovered that killing John Connor could not stop the rise of the rebels, but was easily corrected by the timeline, so it caused His fall, perhaps more likely to alter the timeline.

  The T800 arrived at a critical moment. It turned out that it made a transmission error and was crushed by a heavy truck just after crossing, and its body was seriously damaged, so it arrived so late.

  Inspired by the T800, John rekindled his fighting spirit and fought against the TX robot. Finally defeated the TX nanobots...

  …

  Both of these two scripts were written by Xiang Nan. He thinks they are still innovative and believe they can satisfy James Cameron.

   After James Cameron finished filming "Titanic", he hasn't filmed any movies for three years.

  He is a person who pays attention to lack and excess. If there is no suitable script or suitable technology, then he would rather rest than go out of the mountain.

   Anyway, the "Terminator" series, "True Lies", "Titanic" and other films are enough to make him famous in film history.

   And the Lightstorm Entertainment company he founded is now the leading special effects company in Hollywood, so he doesn't have to worry about running out of money.

   "James, you should read these two scripts first, and we will discuss if you have any questions." Xiang Nan said to James Cameron.

  Cameron nodded and took the script.

  …

  In April and May, Universal Pictures released Christopher Nolan's "Memento" and Guy Ritchie's "Snatch".

   "Memento" is the second film directed by Nolan. It uses flashbacks to tell the story of the male protagonist who suffers from short-term memory loss and uses various clues to find the murderer of his wife.

   This movie is a very brain-burning suspense film. The exquisite story and meticulous arrangement have won the audience's praise and excellent reputation.

"This film is not considered a big production, but the director arranged the intricate plot under the calm and sharp lens language, which combines violence, suspense and many other factors. In addition, we can also see the thinking about life philosophy and psychology. , can be regarded as a masterpiece with an exploratory spirit." The Los Angeles Times commented.

"The fragmented feeling created by the film allows the audience to personally experience the inner world of the protagonist. "Memento" has found a seamless story for this thorough reverse narrative technique. Arranging the details of the reverse story requires special thinking, and finding a Subject matter that fits this framework needs the patronage of inspiration." The New York Times commented.

   Having such a good reputation has also made "Memento" popular with movie fans. In the end, the box office in North America was 18 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office was 32 million U.S. dollars.

   It may not seem like much, but compared to the $5 million production cost, this movie is still a very popular movie. Christopher Nolan has thus gradually gained the favor of the film circle.

  …

  Guy Ritchie became famous in 1998 with "Two Smoking Barrels".

  That movie uses a multi-line cross-narrative technique to make the original very simple story exciting and interesting. It was unexpected and reasonable, so it was a great success.

  With a cost of 1.6 million pounds, it earned 28 million pounds at the box office, making it the third highest-grossing film in British film history. As a result, Guy Ritchie, who was originally unknown, became one of the most outstanding directors in Britain.

   "Abduction and Robbing" is his latest work, which is also filmed in a multi-line cross-narrative technique. It tells the story of a boxing agent who is confusedly involved in a diamond robbery.

  Compared to "Two Smoking Barrels", the conception is more delicate, the scene is bigger, more stars, black humor is stronger, and it is more amusing. Therefore, after the release, the box office and word-of-mouth win-win.

  In the end, the movie grossed $32 million in North America and nearly $80 million worldwide. Compared with the investment of 10 million pounds, it is also considered a blockbuster.

   Guy Ritchie also won the affirmation of Hollywood because of this movie, and even won the heart of the big star Madonna. The couple had their first child in August and were officially married in December.
