Save the Bachelor of Heaven

"Charles, this beautiful girl beside you is..." the host asked with a smile.

"Miss Zhang Ziyi, the heroine of my new work." Xiang Nan introduced with a smile.

"That's really lucky." The host nodded, "What is the story of the new film, can you tell me?"

"It's a martial arts story." Xiang Nan explained, "I guarantee that this is an unprecedented story that no one has ever read before."

"Then we must look forward to it." Hearing what he said, the host smiled and nodded.

...

The award ceremony was held afterwards, and "Titanic" became the protagonist of tonight again.

Best film, best director, best cinematography, best editing, best art direction... A total of eleven awards were won. Only "Ben-Hur" in 1959 achieved such an achievement in film history.

No wonder James Cameron shouted excitedly on the stage, "I am the king of the world!"

And when Xiang Nan came to the stage to accept the best film award, he held the trophy and smiled and said to the audience, "I heard that when this movie was first released, because the box office did not perform well, many people thought I was going to be unlucky." up.

But now, I am standing on the stage with a trophy in my hand and a check for US$1.8 billion in my pocket. So listen to me, don't let anyone judge you, only you can decide your own destiny. Thank you everyone~"

Xiang Nan's acceptance speech really slapped many people in the face.

But what he said was indeed very popular, so it was unanimously recognized by the audience after it was broadcast, and soon became a classic quote.

At the party after the awards ceremony, Xiang Nan congratulated James Cameron.

"James, I really want to congratulate you. You have been nominated for 14 awards in one go and won 11 awards. You have created Oscar history." He said with a smile.

"Thank you." Cameron also smiled, "Charles, I know, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today."

If Xiang Nan hadn't accepted the project, the project would probably have died.

In that case, let alone win eleven Oscars and become [King of the World], he doesn't even have the qualifications to stand here today, and he would have gone back and continued driving his big truck long ago.

"Don't say that, I have always believed in your ability." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "How to raise, James, do you want to consider making "True Lies 2" or "Terminator 3"?"

Upon hearing this, James Cameron nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll think about it."

Xiang Nan also nodded, knowing that Cameron is not a prolific director.

Since his debut in the early 1980s, he has only made seven films in sixteen years.

After filming "Titanic" in 1997, "Avatar" was not released until 2009, and there was an interval of twelve years. "Avatar 1" and "Avatar 2" are also more than ten years apart.

So Xiang Nan really didn't have much hope for his subjective initiative. Therefore, he can only write the script first, and then urge Cameron to shoot.

...

At the party, Xiang Nan also finalized two projects smoothly.

One is "The Trap of Stealing the Sky", and the other is "The God of Death Comes".

"The Trap of Stealing the Sky" tells the story of two thieves taking advantage of the new millennium, when the bank's operating system was down due to the millennium bug, they took the opportunity to rob the bank.

Xiang Nan has seen this movie, starring Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

The film is also a classic of Catherine, in which she is not only beautiful, but also smart and witty, quite attractive.

And "Death is Coming" is an idea conceived by the screenwriter of "X-Files". It was originally going to be used on "The X-Files", but the idea was not taken up, so he expanded it into a script and was going to adapt it into a movie.

Xiang Nan has also watched this movie and knew it was a famous horror movie, so he also decided to invest.

...

Seeing that Xiang Nan was so popular at the party, those top Hollywood stars, directors, and producers all circled around Xiang Nan, hoping to cooperate with him, Zhang Ziyi couldn't help being eye-opening.

In her opinion, those celebrities, directors, and producers are all well-known, recognizable, and high-ranking masters. Don't say she knew him, she hadn't even met him.

But now, they were all around her, welcoming them with smiles and enthusiasm, which really flattered her.

And she knew in her heart that the reason those people were so enthusiastic was not because of how powerful she was. It was the people around her who were the most prestigious and prestigious filmmakers in Hollywood and even in the world.

Realizing this made her admire Xiang Nan even more.

...

Entering April, Xiang Nan finally made a breakthrough when he acquired MGM Pictures.

He finally bought MGM Pictures for $800 million, including the famous 007 series. In addition, there are more than 1,500 movies and more than 4,000 episodes of TV series.

Overall, the price is quite appropriate.

On the one hand, more than 1,500 movies and more than 4,000 episodes of TV series have effectively expanded the film library of Universal Pictures and allowed it to have more stable and abundant income;

On the one hand, although MGM’s film library has been sold once and lost well-known movies such as "Tom and Jerry", "The Wizard of Oz", "Gone with the Wind", and "Blue Bridge", it still has "007" " series, "Pink Panther" series, "The Addams Family" series, "Four Funerals and One Wedding" and other high-quality films.

At this time, MGM still has a 007 series work in production, which is "007: The Black Sun Crisis" starring Sophie Marceau and Dennis Richards.

To be honest, Dennis Richards is already amazing and can rank among the top among many Bond girls. Naihe met a more beautiful Sophie Marceau, and she is not only beautiful and charming, but more importantly, she is also a femme fatale, sinister, cunning, and ruthless.

For men, such a woman is more attractive. Therefore, Dennis Richards was left with nothing left, and his presence in the film was extremely low.

After the release, she also attracted a lot of ridicule, which even affected her stardom, so that she never received a commercial blockbuster in the future. How pitiful!

...

The news of Xiang Nan's successful acquisition of MGM did not cause much repercussions in Hollywood.

On the one hand, everyone knows that MGM Pictures is a mess. It has changed owners several times, but nothing has improved. Therefore, whoever buys it may lose money in the end;

On the one hand, Xiang Nan has already acquired Carolco Films and Universal Pictures before, and now it is no longer unusual to buy MGM Pictures. After all, with the tragic situation of MGM Pictures now, it is not as good as Carloco back then.

The current MGM, that is, the brand is still somewhat well-known, but its foundation has long been ruined. It is no longer one of the eight giants of Hollywood, and it is not even as powerful as Miramax, Orion Films, and New Line Films. So when it was acquired, it was naturally difficult to stir up a splash.
