Chapter 1773 1775 [Clay figures also have earthy nature]
"Who is this girl? She looks familiar to me. Is she the audition heroine?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.
It would be great to collaborate with her.
“It should be Brooke Shields, her "Beauty" was a sensation in the first two years." Cai Yongchang explained.
Xiang Nan suddenly understood when he heard this.
He has heard of the name Brooke Shields. It is said that because she is so beautiful, she is known as the eighth wonder of the world. Now that I see it, although it is a bit exaggerated, it is indeed very beautiful.
“However, although she is somewhat famous in the United States, she is not yet a first-line actress.” Cai Yongchang added, “Her starring role in “The Story of a Beautiful Girl” was quite popular, but its box office success was far behind.”
Xiang Nan nodded.
In real life, Brooke Shields is not famous for her works. Her popularity comes mostly from her scandals and hype.
?Her scandal targets include the King of Pop Michael Jackson, the golden family of American politics John F. Kennedy II, etc.
??And although she took photos for magazines when she was ten years old, she also had quite large-scale performances in movies such as "The Story of a Beautiful Girl" and "Youth Coral Island".
But she actually declared that she was a devout believer and resolutely refused to allow intimacy before marriage. She even bought insurance for herself, so she was jokingly called the last virgin in Hollywood.
?Through these scandals and hype, Brooke Shields, although her film and television works were unsuccessful, still firmly occupied the media and became the focus of media pursuit, so much so that Xiang Nan did not miss her news.
After remembering these things, Xiang Nan''s impulse aroused by her disappeared in an instant.
…
After the audition, Xiang Nan and Cai Yongchang stayed in Hollywood for a few more days.
During this period, "The Young Master" was officially launched. After its release, it did well at the box office and continued the success of "The Prodigal Boy".
The box office exceeded one million in two days, and as word of mouth grew, the box office continued to grow.
Such achievements have also made Xiang Nan''s popularity soaring and unstoppable.
At this time, Warner finally wrote back. After careful consideration, Xiang Nan still failed to choose the protagonist of "The Dragon King", and they finally decided to let Michael Fox star in the movie.
He is younger, handsomer and, more importantly, white.
When Xiang Nan heard this, he became furious.
?His script, his funding, but in the end he was left out, and of course he didn''t approve of it.
"I want to take the script back. This is my project. No one can take away my leading role." Xiang Nan slammed the table angrily, smashing a solid wood table into pieces.
"Ning Wei, you have to calm down, this is Hollywood." Cai Yongchang advised, "Warner is a giant, you can''t offend it!"
"It just knows that I don''t dare to offend it, so it dares to treat me with such contempt." Xiang Nan scolded, "I just want to let it know that clay figures are also angry. I have to take back the script, and I won''t even tear it up. Cheap it."
“Ning Wei, don’t be like this.” Cai Yongchang advised, “If you still want to come to Hollywood, don’t think about fighting it!”
"Then I won''t come." Xiang Nan said angrily, "I can still live a good life even if I don''t come to Hollywood."
“Ning Wei, don’t make a mistake.” Cai Yongchang said quickly, “With your talent and strength, this is your best stage.”
"Old Cai, do you want to speak for it or for me?" Xiang Nan suddenly looked at him and said, "You have asked me to endure it from the beginning, but is it useful to endure it until now? Isn''t it like throwing away garbage? I was pushed out.
?Now, I won’t tolerate him even if I endure **** or piss. You go and get my script back, otherwise, don''t force me to fall out with you. "
When Cai Yongchang heard this, he couldn''t help being startled and asked quickly, "What do you mean by that?" "It''s what you think it means." Xiang Nan said coldly.
??Cai Yongchang''s expression changed several times, and finally he retreated, "You calm down first, I''ll make a phone call."
…
??Cai Yongchang returned to his room, called Xiangjiang, and told Zou Wenhuai exactly what Xiang Nan meant.
Zou Wenhuai also had a headache after hearing about it.
??If Xiang Nan really falls out with Jiahe, then Jiahe will really be in trouble.
In the past two years, Xiang Nan has made a lot of money for Jiahe.
"The Strange Move of Laughing Fist", "Junior Brother''s Attack", "The Prodigal Son", "Ghost Fighting Ghost", "Scaring People", etc., were all box office hits. And it is not only popular in Hong Kong, but also in Taiwan, Nanyang, Japan, South Korea and other places.
If he were to leave Jiahe, how much less would Jiahe make?
??And if Xiang Nan''s request is followed and he falls out with Warner, all the roads previously paved by Jiahe will be cut off, and the price will be high.
After all, in order to win cooperation with Warner Bros., Golden Harvest had to invest both people and money, so they spent a lot of money.
"Leimeng, what''s going on? You have to make up your mind." Cai Yongchang said, "In my opinion, Ning Wei is really angry this time, and it''s not so easy to persuade him."
Zou Wenhuai thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let''s bring the person back first."
Xiang Nan staying in the United States will not help the situation, but will make him even more angry. On the contrary, returning to Xiangjiang, far away from the place of right and wrong, makes it easier to be persuaded.
?Cai Yongchang nodded, and then conveyed Zou Wenhuai''s opinions to Xiang Nan.
"Don''t think you can wait for change." Xiang Nan is so smart that he naturally saw through his intentions immediately. "If you don''t ask for the script for me, I will ask for it myself. There are many lawyers in Hollywood, so they must be very interested in representing me. This is a winning case."
?His script was neither sold to Golden Harvest nor to Warner Bros., and the copyright is still in his own hands. Therefore, it is still very easy to file a lawsuit. As long as Warner dares to film, he dares to hire a lawyer to block the project.
By then, even if the film is made, it will not be released, and he will have to compensate for all his losses.
When Cai Yongchang heard this, he was immediately shocked.
?He did not expect that Xiang Nan, who came from the mainland, would actually hire a lawyer to litigate the case.
?How did he know that Xiang Nan had lived in the United States for a long time in the world of "Little Shede". In order to protect his legal interests, he hired a private lawyer and had a certain understanding of American law.
…
?Cai Yongchang had no choice but to contact Zou Wenhuai again.
Zou Wenhuai didn''t expect that Xiang Nan would have such a strong temper, so he had no choice but to call himself, "Ning Wei, if you can''t do it once, there will be a second time, why should we make the relationship so tense.
In this case, for my sake, you go back to Xiangjiang first. Is it better to think about this matter in the long run? In short, I will not treat you badly. "
"Mr. Zou, I just want to ask you one thing, when will you give me the box office share of "Laughing Fist", "Junior Brother''s Attack", "The Prodigal Son", "Ghost Fighting", and "Scaring People"?" Xiang Nan heard this. , asked coldly.
??He has filmed so many blockbuster movies for Jiahe, so he should have received a lot of profit. But so far, no money has been seen. Now when filming movies at Real Kung Fu Pictures, they first borrow money from Golden Harvest.
?As for Xiang Nan, apart from the salary, he didn’t earn any of the extra money, which is at least several million Hong Kong dollars.
