Save the Bachelor of Heaven

The original "Bad Boys 2" invested 130 million U.S. dollars, and the final global box office was 230 million U.S. dollars. It was not considered profitable, so "Bad Boys 3" was not launched until seventeen years later.

The reason why the original version of "Bad Boys 2" no longer sells money is due to changes in the social environment. In 1995, two African-Americans were invited to play the leading role. They shot guns while telling racial jokes and called it avant-garde. Arranging this way in 2003 would seem outdated.

Second, in order to show off his skills, Michael Bay arranged too many gun battle scenes and explosion scenes. Although the scenes seem to be really hot, they will inevitably make the audience feel bored. Just like people like to eat spicy food, but too spicy hot pot is also daunting.

Therefore, in the end, the box office of "Jedi Men 2" was not as good as the film company expected, so it was hidden for seventeen years.

Xiang Nan knew that "Jedi Men 2" had this problem, so he cut some of the gun battles and added more passages of brotherhood, love and family affection.

In addition, those racist jokes have also been cut and revised to avoid stimulating the audience. After all, today is different from the past, those jokes will go too far if you are not careful.

...

After the release of the new version of "Jedi Men 2", the box office performance is very good.

On the one hand, after the plot has been adjusted, it is more suitable for the tastes of the current audience; on the other hand, Will Smith is in his prime, and his box office appeal is amazing. Although Martin Lawrence is in poor condition, his ability to make jokes remains undiminished.

Therefore, in the end, "Bad Boys 2" has a North American box office of 150 million U.S. dollars and a global box office of more than 400 million U.S. dollars. Compared with the investment of 100 million US dollars, it is also a very good result.

It's just that Xiang Nan was a little hesitant to shoot "Bad Boys 3". If the conditions cannot be negotiated, then "Jedi Men 3" may be delayed for another few years.

...

In July, "Fast and Furious 4" was released, telling the story of Tang Boss' team gathering to fight against the big Brazilian drug lord.

Compared with the first three films, this movie has a higher investment and bigger scenes, especially the street racing at the end, which makes the audience full of passion and blood.

Coupled with the climax of the whole story, there is no urine point, which also makes the audience very enjoyable to watch. Therefore, in the end, the film won 350 million US dollars in North America and 730 million US dollars in the global box office.

Compared with the investment of 120 million US dollars, this box office is quite good, so "Fast and Furious 5" will definitely be shot again.

The global sales of "Fast and Furious 4" have greatly increased the popularity of Chinese actors such as Zhang Ziyi, Wu Yanzu, and Nicholas Tse. Nicholas Tse, in particular, became one of the international movie stars with this movie, which also allowed him to sweep away the haze of the photo industry in 2008, and his future development can be expected.

...

In August, the filming of "Mission: Impossible 5" ended.

During the filming, Xiang Nan and Wen Yongshan communicated several times. To be honest, the experience was not good.

Except for Wen Yongshan's face, other aspects are just not satisfactory. Especially knowledge, a mess.

Because she has been a model since she was a child, she didn't receive much education at all, so she didn't get into college, and her language was tasteless and her conversation was poor. It is really incomparable with Jennifer Connelly, Natalie Portman, Kate Beckinsale and other academic bullies.

Therefore, Xiang Nan only communicated with her a few times, and after the filming of her scenes, she was sent back to Xiangjiang directly.

After filming "Mission: Impossible 5", Xiang Nan immediately participated in the filming of "The Universe".

The original male lead was played by Guan Jiwei, and the original version was played by Jackie Chan. However, the investment in that movie was not large, so Jackie Chan was not invited, so Kwan Ji-wai played the role.

And now, Xiang Nan is going to play the role himself.

On the one hand, with him and Cong Shan as partners, he can cooperate with her and protect her to the greatest extent. After all, this is her comeback after 20 years, and it's the first time she's filming in Hollywood. It's inevitable that she won't get used to it. Having him by her side can save a lot of trouble.

On the one hand, this movie is her first comeback work, if the box office does not perform well, it will be a huge blow to her. With Xiang Nan's joining, at least the box office can be guaranteed.

In addition to him and Cong Shan, other actors in the film Xiang Nan also have arrangements.

Daughter Joey is played by mainland actor Shu Chang. She not only has outstanding acting skills, but also graduated from Yanjing Second Foreign Language Institute and has a foreign language proficiency;

Zeng Jiang played the role of the father-in-law. He also studied in the United States and participated in "007: Die Another Day". He is a familiar face, and his acting skills are naturally quite good.

Cate Blanchett starred as Delirte. She is well-known for her acting skills and is known as the Great Devil. She has also been nominated and won Oscars for Best Supporting Actress and Best Actress many times.

In addition, Xiang Nan also frantically swipes favor cards, and many big-name stars will come to guest star, even top superstars such as Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Tom Hanks, Johnny Depp, Nicolas Cage, etc. .

In addition to the above arrangements, the director of this film is Steven Spielberg, the most outstanding commercial film director in Hollywood.

He hasn't made any new films recently, mainly because he doesn't have any good scripts that catch his eyes.

As for Xiang Nan's "The Universal Universe", after reading it, he found it very interesting, so he decided to cooperate with Xiang Nan.

However, he has some opinions on Cong Shan's role as the heroine.

There are so many actresses with acting skills and famous names in Hollywood. Why did Xiang Nan choose this unpopular woman who is over 50 years old and retired from the industry for 20 years? It really puzzles him.

"Charles, do you want to reconsider the choice of the heroine?" He suggested.

"No, it's her." Xiang Nan insisted.

"Why, does she have any advantages?" Spielberg asked puzzled.

"Because she is my wife." Xiang Nan explained with a smile.

Spielberg suddenly realized, and then questioned, "The investment in this film is 100 million US dollars. Have you ever thought about what to do if you lose money?"

The investment in the original version of "The Transient Universe" was only 25 million US dollars, so the film was shabby everywhere, and even many special effects were done by the two directors themselves.

Xiang Nan naturally has no shortage of money, so he invested 100 million U.S. dollars to make this movie. Both he and Cong Shan don't want a salary. In that case, all 100 million US dollars will be invested in the production, which is equivalent to a large production with an investment of 150 million to 200 million.

However, the heroine is not enough box office appeal, Spielberg will still worry about the box office fiasco.

"It doesn't matter, if she loses, she will lose it, as long as she is happy." Xiang Nan said with a smile, he really didn't pay attention to the loss of 100 to 200 million US dollars.

With the development of the Internet in the past few years, his investment has greatly increased in value, and he has already become a super rich with a net worth of hundreds of billions of dollars. Spending 100 to 200 million to make your wife happy is like a person with thousands of dollars in his pocket, spending two dollars to buy a popsicle, not too simple.
