Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Xiang Nan then arranged roles.

"X-Men" starring Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, etc.; Russell Crowe was used, and Xiang Nan planned to use Mel Gibson; the original version of "Listening to a Woman's Heart" was Mel Gibson, and Xiang Nan wanted to replace it with Brad Pitt.

For "Meet Your Father-in-Law", "Princess Diaries" and "Resident Evil", Xiang Nan wanted to use the original cast. Milla Jovovich's Alice was replaced by Ali Larter.

As for "Secret Agent Belle", the original version was played by Sandra Bullock. Her acting skills are fresh and natural, and she is proficient. She once won the Oscar for Best Actress.

However, Xiang Nan had no interest in her. After consideration, he decided to cast Charlize Theron in the role.

Charlize Theron is not only beautiful, but also an acting school. She once won the Oscar for Best Actress for her disfigured performance in "The Devil".

After the roles are determined, the filming of each film officially begins.

...

In the same month, Xiang Nan gave James Cameron two scripts.

One is the script of "True Lies 2" and the other is the script of "Terminator 3".

"True Lies 2" continues the story of Agent Harry's fight against dangerous elements. In the previous work, his identity has been exposed in front of his wife and daughter, and his wife has also joined his organization to engage in dangerous missions with him.

In this film, in order to fit the theme of "True Lies", Xiang Nan brings out his father-in-law, mother-in-law, father, and mother, and tells the story of a family traveling together in the Middle East.

As a result, the hero and heroine suddenly received a task and were ordered to investigate a dangerous element. As a result, they had to work hard to conceal their identities while carrying out their tasks, which naturally created countless jokes.

In the end, they found out the conspiracy of the dangerous elements and learned that they were going to hijack the passenger plane to attack the United States, so the hero and heroine had to take immediate action. What's more troublesome is that their identities were exposed and their parents were taken hostage by dangerous elements.

Thus, an aerial battle started again...

"True Lies 2" has both a thrilling conspiracy and a humorous family comedy. And Xiang Nan also specifically alluded to the Jiu Yao Yao incident... If Jiu Yao Yao still happened, then this "True Lies 2" would become a magical movie.

"Terminator 3" mainly tells about the growth of John Connor.

At the end of the story of "Terminator 2", he was forced to flee to South America with his mother Sarah Connor because of his involvement in the bombing of the Cybertin computer company.

While in South America, he met a beautiful and lovely girl, and gradually fell under her temptation. He was tired of the life of fleeing, and he didn't want to take on the fate of saving the world anymore.

But I didn't expect that the girl turned out to be a TX robot. The reason why he approached John Connor and caused him to fall was because Skynet discovered that killing John Connor could not stop the rise of the rebels, but was easily corrected by the timeline, so it caused His fall, perhaps more likely to alter the timeline.

The T800 arrived at a critical moment. It turned out that it made a transmission error and was crushed by a heavy truck just after crossing over. The body was seriously damaged, so it arrived so late.

Inspired by the T800, John rekindled his fighting spirit and fought against the TX robot. Finally defeated the TX nanobots...

...

These two scripts were both written by Xiang Nan. He thinks they are still innovative and believe they can satisfy James Cameron.

James Cameron has not filmed any more movies for three years after filming "Titanic".

He is a person who pays attention to lack rather than excess. If there is no suitable script or suitable technology, then he would rather rest than go out of the mountain.

Anyway, several films such as the "Terminator" series, "True Lies", and "Titanic" are enough to make him famous in film history.

And the Lightstorm Entertainment company he founded is now the leading special effects company in Hollywood, so he doesn't worry about running out of money.

"James, read these two scripts first, and we'll discuss if you have any questions." Xiang Nan said to James Cameron.

Cameron nodded and took the script.

...

Universal released Christopher Nolan's Memento in April and Guy Ritchie's Snatch and Snatch in May.

"Memento" is the second film directed by Nolan. It tells the story of the male protagonist suffering from short-term amnesia in a flashback manner, looking for the murderer of his wife through various clues.

This movie is a very brain-burning suspense film. The exquisite story and meticulous arrangement have won the audience's praise and excellent reputation.

"This film is not considered a big production, but the director arranged the intricate plot under the calm and sharp lens language, which combines violence, suspense and many other factors. In addition, we can also see the thinking about life philosophy and psychology. , can be regarded as a masterpiece with an exploratory spirit." The Los Angeles Times commented.

"The fragmented feeling created by the film allows the audience to personally experience the inner world of the protagonist. "Memento" has found a seamless story for this thorough reverse narrative technique. Arranging the details of the reverse story requires special thinking, and finding a Subject matter that fits this framework needs the patronage of inspiration." The New York Times commented.

Having such a good reputation has also made "Memento" popular with movie fans. In the end, the box office in North America was 18 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office was 32 million U.S. dollars.

It may not seem like much, but compared to the $5 million production cost, this movie is still a very popular movie. Christopher Nolan has thus gradually gained the favor of the film circle.

...

Guy Ritchie became famous in 1998 with "Two Smoking Barrels".

That movie used a multi-line cross-narrative technique to make the original very simple story exciting and interesting. It was unexpected and reasonable, so it was a great success.

With a cost of 1.6 million pounds, it won a box office of 28 million pounds, making it the third highest-grossing film in British film history. As a result, Guy Ritchie, who was originally unknown, became one of the most outstanding directors in Britain.

"Stealing and Robbery" is his latest work, which is also filmed in a multi-line cross-narrative technique, telling the story of a boxing agent who is confusedly involved in a diamond robbery.

Compared with "Two Smoking Barrels", the conception is more sophisticated, the scene is bigger, there are more stars, the black humor is more intense, and it is more amusing. Therefore, after the release, the box office and word-of-mouth win-win.

In the end, the movie grossed $32 million in North America and nearly $80 million worldwide. Compared with the investment of 10 million pounds, it is also considered a blockbuster.

Guy Ritchie also won the affirmation of Hollywood because of this movie, and even won the heart of the big star Madonna. The couple had their first child in August and were officially married in December.
