Save the Bachelor of Heaven

   Chapter 1973 1975 [Anne Hathaway]

  In September, Xiang Nan asked Anne Hathaway for coffee.

  Anne Hathaway was born in 1982 and is currently studying at Vassar College, a prestigious American university, majoring in English and minoring in Women's Studies. When she was in school, she liked drama performances very much. She starred in the stage play "The World of Gold Powder" and won a Rising Star Award to reward newcomers with outstanding performance.

  In 1999, she officially entered the film and television industry and starred in her debut work, an American family comedy series "The Green Family".

  Although this series had a good reputation, it was a pity that the ratings were so poor that it was cut off after only one season. However, Anne Hathaway was nominated for the second Teen Choice Award for Best TV Actress by virtue of her performance in this series, which also made her initially famous in the circle.

   "Princess Diaries" is her second movie. For her, this movie with an investment of 30 million US dollars and written by Xiang Nan is undoubtedly a big cake from heaven.

  In fact, she never expected to act in Xiang Nan's movie. After all, there are too many girls like her in Hollywood, and she doesn't expect to reach the sky in one step.

  I just hope that I will be down-to-earth, develop step by step, and grow into an acting school like Meryl Streep and Susan Sarandon in the future.

   Unexpectedly, Xiang Nan actually appointed her as the heroine of "Princess Diaries", and because of this, she became famous overnight, and became the most anticipated rising star in Hollywood.

  So she felt as if she was in a dream these past few months, and it felt a little unreal.

   But seeing Xiang Nan in front of her today, she felt even more unreal, so by accident, she reached out her hand and touched Xiang Nan.

  …

  Xiang Nan was taken aback for a moment, he hadn't acted yet, why was someone taking advantage of him instead.

  Just as she was about to speak, Anne Hathaway sneered and said, "I'm not dreaming, it's actually real."

   "Why, do you think you are dreaming?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile, "Am I that unreal?"

   "No, of course not." Annie quickly waved her hands, "I just didn't expect that one day, I would sit with you."

   "To be honest, I didn't think of it either." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

  If he hadn't traveled to this world and achieved such a great achievement in advance, it would be impossible for him to want to have dinner with Anne Hathaway.

   "Mr. Charles, I haven't thanked you for letting me star in "The Princess Diaries." Anne said respectfully again, "This is really my honor, thank you so much."

   "You're welcome, I'll arrange you to play the role because you are suitable for this role." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "You should be the one to thank."

   "No, no, without your support, no matter how suitable I am, I have no chance." Annie waved her hands repeatedly.

  There are many actors suitable for the role of "Princess Diaries", and she alone knows countless. Many of them were prettier and more famous than her.

   It can be said that if it wasn't for Xiang Nan's handpicking, she would never have been able to play this role.

   "You know that gratitude is a good thing, and I also like people who know how to be grateful." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled.

  Many celebrities in the entertainment industry don't know how to be grateful. They thought that they could become popular because of their own strength. Therefore, once they became popular, they immediately began to float up, arrogant and arrogant.

   Seeing what Xiang Nan said, Annie smiled even sweeter.

   "Behave well, if there are good movies in the future, I will arrange for you to star in them." Xiang Nan said again.

   "Okay, I will definitely satisfy you." Annie nodded immediately.

  She knows that "Princess Diaries" can only make her popular for a while, but it is impossible for her to enjoy a lifetime bonus. If she wants to continue to be popular, there must be new and good works coming out.

  The most outstanding producer in Hollywood is Xiang Nan, and there are no films he produces that are not blockbusters. Therefore, she is looking forward to working with Xiang Nan again.

  …

  In the following September and October, Universal Pictures successively released "Clash of Heaven and Earth" and "The Trap of Stealing the Sky".

  "Clash of Heaven and Earth" is the same as "Peerless Heavenly Tribulation", both tell the story of an asteroid hitting the earth and human beings are forced to save themselves. Although the stories are similar, the styles are quite different.

   "Peerless Cataclysm" is the work of Michael Bay, with a hot and exciting style, which makes the audience almost breathless. The blood pulsed, the hormones soared, and it was addictive.

   And "Clash of Heaven and Earth" is the work of Mimi Ryder, she is a female director, so the style of this movie is more delicate and realistic.

  In this movie, the planets hit the earth is not the point, the point is the reaction of people from all walks of life under the disaster, which reflects the good and evil of human nature, bravery and cowardice, true love and hypocrisy, steadfastness and betrayal, dedication and demand.

   Therefore, the global box office of this movie is 350 million US dollars. Although it is not as good as "Peerless Catastrophe", it is more memorable.

  …

   "The Trap of the Sky" is an action movie starring Catherine Zeta-Jones and Sean Connery. It tells the story of a pair of male and female thieves who took advantage of the brief downtime of the millennium computers to rob the World Bank.

  This commercial film combines many commercial elements such as stealing treasure, cops and robbers, fighting, chasing, etc., coupled with the trendy concept of [Millennium Bug], forming an extremely refreshing popcorn blockbuster.

  Although Catherine Zeta-Jones and Sean Connery are 40 years apart in age, the young and old love in the film is still very harmonious and well matched, which has become a major selling point.

  So in the end, the North American box office won 110 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office reached 250 million U.S. dollars. Compared with the cost of 66 million US dollars, it can be said to be a great success.

  …

  In October, Xiang Nan finished filming "The Matrix 2", and then he left for Xiangjiang.

   Before heading to Xiangjiang, he received good news from ATV.

  After the unremitting efforts of ATV's management, the mainland finally agreed to ATV's landing in the Pearl River Delta through Guangdong Dongdong Cable TV Company. As a result, ATV's viewing audience increased by more than one million.

   This is really great news for ATV. Therefore, ATV is very excited from top to bottom.

  WiFi next door almost went crazy seeing this.

   After all, the mainland market is much larger than Xiangjiang, with a population of 1.2 billion hundreds of times that of Xiangjiang, and the annual advertising cost is as high as tens of billions.

  After ATV lands in the Pearl River Delta, the annual advertising revenue is expected to reach more than 300 million Hong Kong dollars. Coupled with Hong Kong's local income, ATV's revenue and expenditure can become more balanced, and even profitable.

   In this way, ATV's confidence will be stronger, and the program production will be more sophisticated, so the ratings will be higher. Sooner or later, ATV will surpass TVB and become Nabovan of Heung Kong TV.

   Therefore, on the one hand, Wireless is actively preparing for the war, and on the other hand, it is also actively striving to settle in the mainland.
