Chapter 1865 1867 [Golden Globe Awards]
Xiang Nan then convinced Cong Shan’s parents and his own parents.
The process was also very simple. He hinted that if he couldn''t get married secretly, he would keep putting off getting married.
Ning Wei''s parents and Cong Shan''s parents were looking forward to their early marriage and didn''t want to delay it any longer, so they had no choice but to agree to Xiang Nan''s conditions.
?The two families then picked a good day and had a meal together. Xiang Nan and Cong Shan were considered married. But in fact, the two of them did not receive certificates.
After getting married, Xiang Nan and Cong Shan didn''t even stay at home for a few days. They went to the United States together and lived in the Beverly Hills mansion rented by Xiang Nan.
"From now on, you will quit the entertainment industry and become a housewife at home. Will you regret it?" Xiang Nan asked Cong Shan.
"As long as I''m with you, I won''t regret it." Cong Shan hugged Xiang Nan and said sincerely.
Xiang Nan touched her head and said, "That''s good."
…
Shortly after Xiang Nan and Cong Shan returned to the United States, the 46th Golden Globe Awards was held.
Rain Man, which he co-produced last year, was nominated for Best Screenplay, Best Film, Best Actor and Best Director.
??And judging from newspaper public opinion, this movie is very likely to win an award.
As the screenwriter and producer of "Rain Man", Xiang Nan will naturally take the greatest credit and be honored once he wins the award.
After Xiang Nan considered it, he still gave the Golden Globe a face and chose to attend the meeting.
The result was indeed satisfactory to him. He won the Best Screenplay Award and the Best Film Award successively, becoming the biggest winner in this game.
It is said that in the Best Screenplay Award, the judges originally preferred Neo Fana''s "Nothing". However, in the end, out of compensation considerations, they gave the best screenwriter to Xiang Nan.
After all, Xiang Nan has created many box office masterpieces over the years, enough to win a Best Screenplay Award.
?Dustin Hoffman also successfully won the Best Actor Award. One shot and three shots, the results are quite impressive.
The most important thing is that the Golden Globe Awards have always been known as the Oscar bellwether. "Rain Man" won three major awards at the Golden Globe Awards, and it may be able to repeat its success at the Oscars, so it is naturally attracting attention.
…
At the party after the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, Xiang Nan accepted many media interviews.
“Charles, how do you feel about winning the Best Screenplay Award?” the reporter asked with a smile.
“Of course I’m very happy to win the Best Screenplay Award. As everyone knows, I don’t have much luck in winning awards, and this is my first time winning an award. I’m really grateful to all the judges for their love.” Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"The Golden Globe Awards are known as the bellwether of the Oscars. How many awards do you expect "Rain Man" to win at the Oscars?" the reporter asked curiously.
"As for how many awards I can win at the Oscars, I haven''t thought about it yet. Of course I hope the more the better. But this time it seems that the competition is very strong, so I may not be able to win." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "However, if I win I am happy to lose and happy, no matter what the outcome, I will accept it.”
“I heard that you have a grudge against the Oscar judges. Why didn’t you attend the Oscars before?” Another reporter asked.
"This is completely out of thin air. How can there be any enmity between us." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "The reason why I didn''t participate is because I know myself.
?Most of my films are commercial and entertainment films, and their style is not high. I admit this myself. I also don’t expect these movies to win awards.
?But the movie "Rain Man" is different. When I created this story, I had no commercial or entertainment considerations at all. I just wanted to write a good story. Sure enough, carefully crafted works will always be rewarded. ”????…
At the party, Xiang Nan was also favored by capital investors, producers, directors, and celebrities. Everyone liked to chat around him in order to get the opportunity to cooperate with him.
Xiang Nan mainly listens more and speaks less, because he knows that talking too much will lead to loss. He currently has no new projects on hand, and making hasty promises only to be unable to fulfill them will hurt his credibility.
?However, the chat was not completely fruitless. He successfully found two new projects.
One is "Lies, Videotape" and the other is "Beetlejuice".
??The two films were recommended to him by producers Nick Hardy and John Wisler respectively.
?Producers like them will look around for suitable projects, and then take the projects to various Hollywood companies to lobby for funding for filming.
Xiang Nan is favored by them because he has successfully invested in many movies and is considered a successful investor in Hollywood.
Xiang Nan was very interested after hearing about their project, so he decided to invest. One has an investment of US$600,000, and the other has an investment of US$7 million.
…
February, Berlin Film Festival.
"Rain Man" also received an invitation to participate in the exhibition.
Xiang Nan did not lead the team in person because he had to prepare for the new film "Speed ??of Life and Death".
"Speed" is a movie released in 1994, starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. It tells the story of a retired police officer who planted a bomb on a bus in order to retaliate against society. . Once the speed drops below fifty yards, the car explodes.
?At the critical moment, SWAT Jack boarded the bus and used his great wisdom and courage to eliminate the danger, rescued all the passengers, and finally brought the criminals to justice.
The film has a compact plot, is thrilling and exciting, so after its release, it was well-received and received a high box office of 120 million U.S. dollars. It also brought Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock to the forefront. .
?As for actors, Xiang Nan chose Courtney Cox to partner with him.
? Courtney Cox is Monica in the famous American TV series "Friends". She was born in 1964 and debuted in 1985. She first worked as an advertising model, and then continued to participate in film and television dramas, accumulating a certain amount of acting experience.
The reason why Xiang Nan chose her was mainly out of his feelings for Monica. When he was depressed back then, he often watched "Friends" to relax. Therefore, the six old friends in "Friends" are like his friends.
?Cortney Cox also felt excited and excited when she learned that she had been selected as the heroine of Xiang Nan''s new film.
At present, she is not well-known in Hollywood. Not to mention starring in movies, even starring in TV series, it is not her turn.
?So now starring in "Speed ??of Life and Death" with Xiang Nan, for her, it is simply a step to the sky. She was naturally excited.
“Charles, thank you for choosing me. I promise that I will perform with my heart and will not disappoint you.” Courtney said seriously.
Xiang Nan smiled and nodded, "Just try your best, but there is no need to be nervous. When filming, it is better to tighten inside and loosen outside, so that it will be natural and there will be no trace of acting."
?Kourtney''s performance in "Friends" was a bit deliberate. Therefore, the other five were all nominated for Emmy Awards, and only she received a bye every time.
“Thank you, I’ll remember it.” Courtney nodded.
