"Ms. Li, your performance in "Mr. Zombie" was very good. It made my eyes shine." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

After "Mr. Zombie" became a hit, he made an appointment with Li Saimin for coffee at the Peninsula Hotel.

"Thank you for your compliment." Li Saimin nodded immediately, "This is what I should do."

"Okay, you can carry it clearly." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "That's how you should be as a human being. You need to know what you have, you need to know what you want, and you need to know what you do. If you understand these three points, you are not far away from success. "

"Yes, thank you for your advice, I have written it down." Li Saimin said immediately.

"That's good." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "I'm interested in making a female action film, and I think you have good looks and skills. What do you think, are you interested in taking on this responsibility?"

When Li Saimin heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Of course I'm interested, Mr. Ning."

She debuted in the 1980s and became famous after playing Yang Yaman in Li's TV series "The Love of the Earth", so her nickname is also Aman.

After that, she participated in film and television dramas such as "The Drunken Master Wuji", "Bo Niu", and "The Legend of Shushan". Although she was the protagonist, she was never popular and always lacked a little luck.

As for those who enter the entertainment industry, there is no one who doesn’t want to be famous. Li Saimin naturally hopes that she will become famous as soon as possible, so now that she hears Xiang Nan say this, she is naturally very interested.

Because Xiang Nan is the most outstanding producer in Hong Kong and even Hollywood, and the movies he produces are all very popular. This is a well-known fact, so she has great confidence in Xiang Nan.

"Okay, as long as you're interested." Xiang Nan nodded, "In this case, we can discuss the details when we get to my room."

Li Saimin was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

…

After some in-depth understanding, Li Saimin took over the project of "Angel Operation".

She was originally starring in this movie in 1987. It is similar to the popular American TV series "Charlie's Angels" in the 1970s. It is also about a special operations team called Angels who accept missions and punish rapists. A story about eliminating evil and maintaining peace.

Although the box office of this type of movie is not very high in Hong Kong, the first one only had a box office of 8 million Hong Kong dollars, which is far less than the family comedy "Rich and Rich" co-starring Dong Piao, Shen Dianxia and others.

But in overseas markets, this type of movie is very popular, and there is even a special category called girl with gun. Therefore, although "Angel" did not have a high box office in Hong Kong, it can still be filmed one after another. Three reasons.

Xiang Nan also knew that there was an audience for this type of movie, so he was ready to put it into production.

Li Saimin didn't know this, so he thought Xiang Nan was specifically praising her, so he was naturally excited and grateful. He thought he had met true love, otherwise why would he be praising her with real money?

For this reason, she treats Xiang Nan even better.

…

Xiang Nan stayed in Xiangjiang for half a month, during which time he broke up with Zhong Chuhong and Xia Wenxi.

On the one hand, there are fewer gatherings and more separations, and we are becoming increasingly alienated; on the other hand, if the old ones don’t go away, the new ones won’t come.

Fortunately, the relationship between them has faded, so the breakup between the two of them was peaceful and did not cause any big trouble.

However, Xiang Nan kept Guan Zhilin. After all, beauties of her level are so rare that it would be a pity to give up.

…

In April, Xiang Nan invested in three projects.

One is "Overlord Flower 2" by Wang Jing. Last year's "Overlord Flower" sold well, so he thought about making a sequel to further squeeze out its value.

There is a proverb in Xiangjiang, if the boogers are delicious, the nostrils will be dug out. That's what Wang Jing is like now, he will keep taking photos of an IP when he catches it. As Guo Degang said, catch a toad and squeeze out the melatonin.

One is "Angel Act" by Li Saimin. Xiang Nan invested 10 million Hong Kong dollars in this movie and planned to invite artists from Japan, Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States to film it together, trying to appear more international in order to attract more people. audience.

One is "Mr. Zombie 2" by Liu Guanwei. Seeing that "Mr. Zombie" is so popular, Liu Guanwei naturally doesn't want to give up this golden job easily. He also wants to keep up his efforts and make more movies to make money.

Xiang Nan completely fulfilled his wish.

Three movies were shot together, and for a while, Zhen Kung Fu Pictures was prosperous and enviable.

But what they envy the most is that Xiang Nan wants to take Jackie Chan to Hollywood.

You must know that no one does not want to go to Hollywood to develop. After all, it is the center of world cinema and a holy place that filmmakers all over the world yearn for.

Now that Jackie Chan can go there to develop, and Xiang Nan is still escorting him, it is destined that he will have a smooth journey, jump over the dragon's gate, become worth a hundred times, and will naturally be envied by everyone.

"I wonder if we will have a chance in the future?"

"If there is one, there are two. If Jackie Chan can go, of course we can go too."

"Mr. Ning has such a status in Hollywood, he will definitely be able to bring more people to develop."

All the filmmakers in Hong Kong said this one after another.

But Xiang Nan knew that this was very difficult to accomplish.

On the one hand, in the United States, white and African Americans make up the vast majority, while Chinese Americans only account for a small part. As long as this basic base remains unchanged, it is impossible for Chinese Americans to become big in Hollywood.

On the one hand, Hong Kong's filmmakers lack attraction to Hollywood. Hollywood has no shortage of actors, and no shortage of handsome men and beauties. Unless they can fill a certain gap in Hollywood like Jackie Chan. Otherwise, they will face thousands of It is difficult to stand out from competitors who are not very competitive.

Just like Chow Yun-fat, one of the best actors in Hong Kong, when he went to Hollywood, he could only make bad movies such as "The Blood Is Not Cold" and "Bulletproof Monk". In the end, he couldn't stay any longer and had no choice but to come back. Because Hollywood, There really is no place for him.

But he can't afford to spoil everyone's interest at this time. Besides, he can't arrange the protagonist. It's not a problem to arrange some supporting characters. If they live up to their expectations, the supporting characters can also shine.

Just like Brad Pitt, he became famous because he played a pretty boy who cheated money in "Thelma and Louise" and his screen time was less than ten minutes.

…

In mid-April, Xiang Nan left Xiangjiang and returned to the United States.

At this time, he received a call from Cong Shan.

After Zhang Yimou read the script of "Ju Dou", he was willing to make it into a movie. The starring role is naturally Cong Shan.

Xiang Nan was very happy to hear the news and immediately arranged for people from Zhen Kung Fu Pictures to come over to discuss specific cooperation matters.

Xiang Nan himself is preparing to start filming "Die Hard 3".

Xiang Nan has already made two films in the "Die Hard" series, and both of them achieved very good box office and reputation.

John McClane has become synonymous with tough guys, and "Die Hard" has also become the benchmark for police action movies.

Its theme, its rhythm, its style, its lines, its soundtrack... have all been imitated by its peers one by one. This is its success.
