Save the Bachelor of Heaven

"Ning Wei, you are really amazing." Cong Shan said happily after returning to the stage.

Not only did he win the Best Original Screenplay Award, but he was also Lian Zhuang, which is really amazing. It seems that it is not enough to describe it as talented and talented.

"Low-key, low-key." Xiang Nan smiled, "No matter how good I am, I'm not as good as you."

"How am I so good?" Cong Shan asked in bewilderment upon hearing this.

"You are amazing because you can marry me." Xiang Nan laughed, "I only defeated four opponents, but you defeated women all over the world."

"Bah, put gold on your face." Cong Shan scolded with a smile, but she was very happy.

Xiang Nan is right, she is blessed.

...

Afterwards, "Dead Poets Society" seemed to lose its chances of winning awards, with Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Picture all missing one after another.

Best Picture went to "Driving Miss Daisy", Best Actor went to Daniel Lewis for "No Regrets", Best Director went to Herbert Roberts for "Steel Magnolia"... …for a while, everyone was very sorry.

But Xiang Nan didn't care, on the one hand he won the award, on the other hand the movie made money. He didn't force anything else, he won the prize if he could, and it didn't matter if he didn't.

Although "Raise the Red Lantern" was shortlisted for the best foreign language film, it still lost to the Danish film "Pell the Conqueror".

"Director Zhang, don't be sad. Being shortlisted already shows your strength. There are many factors that affect whether you can win the award." Xiang Nan persuaded.

The awarding of many Oscar awards is controversial. The criteria for awarding awards are not only based on strength, but also status in the industry, word of mouth, and the preferences of the judges.

Like the Oscars in 1999, "Saving Private Ryan" actually lost to "Shakespeare in Love" is the best example.

Zhang Yimou is still a newcomer in Hollywood, so it is very rare to win an award when he first arrives. Xiang Nan has worked in Hollywood for so many years, and has only won three awards in total, which shows that it is really not easy to win awards.

Zhang Yimou nodded, "Thank you Mr. Ning, it's okay, I'm not sad. To be shortlisted is already a winning prize for me."

"Hey, you're right to think so." Xiang Nan smiled, "Keep working hard in the future and look forward to your better works."

Zhang Yimou nodded.

...

Xiang Nan attended the party after the awards ceremony with Cong Shan and Zhang Yimou.

"Come on, each of them has an Academy Award, this time it's not like returning empty-handed." Xiang Nan handed them each an Academy Award chocolate.

Cong Shan and Zhang Yimou held chocolates in the shape of the Golden Statue trophy, dumbfounded, but they were all relieved.

At the party, Xiang Nan was still the most popular favorite, surrounded by investors, producers, directors, and celebrities.

On the one hand, his career is really successful. In the first three months of the year alone, the cumulative box office of his three films "New Father-in-Law", "Lies, Video Tapes" and "Love is Unfinished" has reached nearly Three hundred million.

Earning an average of 100 million US dollars a month, who can see it without envy, and who doesn't want to be happy after seeing it.

On the one hand, Xiang Nan usually rarely attends social occasions. There are parties in Hollywood almost every day. Investors, producers, directors, stars, whoever is happy can throw a party to celebrate.

As long as you like to socialize, as long as you are a little famous, and you don't act obnoxiously, you can party all year round, there is no downtime.

And at parties, people tend to drink and chat, and things are finalized. Don't think that Americans don't talk about business at the wine table.

However, Xiang Nan hardly participated in such occasions. When he was not filming, he basically stayed at home, and he couldn't be seen if he wanted to. Therefore, everyone can only seize this limited opportunity to communicate with him.

...

"You and Director Zhang go over there to have something to eat first, and I'll go over to accompany you later." Xiang Nan said to Cong Shan.

Cong Shan nodded, she didn't like being surrounded by so many people either. Although many of them are well-known Hollywood existences.

Xiang Nan then discussed business with those people and finalized two projects.

One is "Speechless Asking the Heaven", which is adapted from real people. It tells the story of a doctor who accidentally discovered a treatment method and cured a patient with dementia for decades. As a result, the patient found it difficult to find himself. It is better to be abnormal than to be normal... …eventually the therapy failed and the patient reverted to dementia.

Xiang Nan felt that this story was a bit like "Shutter Island" played by Xiao Lizi. The mental patient managed to return to normal, but found that the reality was unbearable for him. In the end, he chose to have his brain lobotomized and became a real idiot.

One is "The Hunt for Red October", which tells the story of a submarine being hunted down. The film is adapted from the original work of the same name by the famous American writer Tom Clancy.

After it was published in 1984, the novel caused a sensation, so it was quickly bought by the producer Mace Newfield for the film and television adaptation rights.

Mace then began to attract investment, but it was not too smooth. The main reason is that the investment in this movie is a bit large. Thirty million dollars was a big production at the time.

And this movie may not be a hit, after all, if you make a movie about pilots, you can fly the plane out of the sky. But it is very difficult to photograph such a large submarine.

So many film companies rejected him, until now he found Xiang Nan.

Xiang Nan knew that this movie was a hit, and it was Sean Connery's turnaround after 007.

After Sean Connery resigned as 007, he was basically out of breath. This is his first starring work, and won the sixth place in the annual box office list. As a result, Sean Connery became popular again and became a representative of old Hollywood students.

Therefore, it is impossible for Xiang Nan not to invest in such a successful project.

...

At the party, Xiang Nan also met Winona Ryder again, and made a plan to drink coffee with her again.

After the Oscars, Xiang Nan proposed four major projects.

One is Dances with Wolves. The novel has been sold for two years, and the sales volume and reputation are not bad. So Xiangnan is ready to invest in it.

One is "Home Alone". This classic comedy film has sold 530 million worldwide. Such a gold brick, Xiang Nan will not take advantage of others.

One is "Detective Airplane Head". Originally, this movie was made famous by Kim Carey, with a box office of more than 90 million US dollars, which is quite good.

The last one is "Pretty Woman". The classic level of this romance film is no less than that of "Human Love Is Ending", and the box office is also almost the same. Of course, Xiang Nan will not miss it.

"Dancing with Wolves", Xiang Nan appointed Kevin Costner to direct and star in, and the heroine was Sophie Marceau.

He is now the darling of Hollywood, and his performances in "Ghostbusters 2", "The Untouchables", "Millions of Golden Arms" and so on have both received good word-of-mouth and box office results, so the industry favors him very much.
