Save the Bachelor of Heaven

After Xiang Nan joined the crew of "Yanjing Le and Road", he got along well with Wu Yanzu and Shu Qi.

Wu Yanzu graduated from the Department of Architecture of the University of Oregon, and Xiang Nan is also an expert in architectural design; Wu Yanzu likes music, rock, hip-hop, and punk, and Xiang Nan also has a deep accumulation in this area; Wu Yanzu likes martial arts and won the mainland martial arts The ranking of the competition, Xiang Nan is proficient in military boxing, and is also quite good at fighting...

Therefore, the two have a common language, and often drink, chat, and eat together, as good as one person.

Although Shu Qi is from Taiwan, she has a bold and straightforward personality, which is like a big girl in the Northeast. Getting along with this kind of girl is actually the easiest.

You don't need to bother to guess what she wants, and you don't have to worry about saying the wrong thing and throwing face. Even if there is something inconsiderate, it will be fine if you say it, and you don't need to explain and beg again and again.

So Xiang Nan still likes Shu Qi very much. But at that time Shu Qi really had a boyfriend,

She and Li Ming were really dating, and they talked on the phone almost every day, and the phone bills cost tens of thousands. So even if Xiang Nan had the intention, he didn't have that chance.

But it's good enough to make friends.

...

During the filming of "Yanjing Music and Road", there was also a small episode.

That's Yanjing's rock circle, and they don't buy Xiang Nan's role as Ping Lu.

They all agreed that Xiang Nan's rock is just fake rock, a product of complete commercialization and pop, not real rock at all.

Since he is not a real rock player, he naturally cannot represent them, starring in this movie that reflects the underground rock scene in Yanjing.

For this reason, when the film crew went to Shucun to take pictures, they also jumped out to obstruct and interfere with the shooting.

In the end, Zhang Wanting had to seek help from the police to maintain order before the filming could continue.

However, the Yanjing rock circle did not give up, and they jointly issued a statement to jointly boycott the movie "Yanjing Music and Road".

It is said that this movie is completely a product of commercialization. Its understanding of underground rock is superficial and curious. Doesn't really reflect the lives, thoughts and feelings of an underground rock band.

Therefore, they announced that they would stop cooperating with the crew of "Yanjing Music and Fury" without violating legal and moral constraints, and called on all rock fans to boycott the film.

...

However, after the release of this statement, which gathered most of the underground rock forces in the Beijing circle, it did not cause much commotion.

Because rock is not mainstream in the mainland, and underground rock is a minority among the minority, and has almost no right to speak in the mainstream media circle.

This statement, except for a small number of niche media, which has a slight influence in the rock circle, has not been seen in the mainstream media at all.

But Xiang Nan felt like he had found a treasure, and immediately ordered Su Mang to intercept this article and post it on the mainstream media.

Because of this boycott, it can be used to promote "Yanjing Music and Road".

And it can also make him sell badly to consolidate the support of fans.

...

Sure enough, after this statement was published by the mainstream media, it actually expanded the popularity of "Yanjing Music and Road" and aroused public curiosity about this movie.

However, Xiang Nan's expulsion from the rock circle not only did not affect his popularity, but he took the opportunity to create a tragic scene of being collectively bullied by rock veterans, which in turn aroused the fans' strong desire to protect.

They helped Xiang Nan speak out through various channels, including newspaper contributions, magazine contributions, radio hotlines, and even buying Xiang Nan's albums to express their support for him.

For a while, Xiang Nan's popularity and reputation rose instead of falling, even hotter than before.

This is really beyond the expectations of rock veterans.

They originally thought that if Xiang Nan was knocked down by them and criticized as [false shake], it would be tantamount to a face-off.

His fans will no longer follow him.

Just like the stubborn master of Forty-Nine City back then, once his flag was pulled out and his position was lost, he would no longer be able to survive in this industry.

They never expected that those fans did not disperse, but united more faithfully. This really confuses them, and they can't figure it out.

...

While Xiang Nan was working hard on filming "Yanjing Music and the Road", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Li An finally came out after nearly a year of meticulous production.

The total investment of this movie is said to be 16 million U.S. dollars, or about 100 million yuan, and it was the most expensive Chinese-language movie at that time. Therefore, when it was released, the media paid attention to it one after another.

However, after its release, the film's box office performance was not particularly good.

The mainland box office is only 15 million, which is not much different from "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog" and "My Father and Mother". Even in Hong Kong and Taiwan, the box office performance of this movie is not strong.

The box office of Xiangjiang is only 14 million Hong Kong dollars, which is not as good as the comedy films starring Ren Xianqi and Zheng Xiuwen.

As soon as such results came out, the media on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, who were still excited, were a little dumbfounded.

Zhang Ziyi was even more annoyed. If she had known that the box office of this movie was so bad, she really shouldn't have separated from Xiang Nan so early.

What's more troublesome is that even if she wants to get back together, Xiang Nan may not be willing.

"Injustice!"

...

At the end of 2000, it was award season again.

In November, the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards were held.

Xiang Nan was nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Actor for his "The Mountain, That Man, That Dog" and "My Father and Mother".

Although he failed to win the award in the end, it is already very rare to be shortlisted.

As for Zhang Ziyi, with "My Father and Mother", he successfully won the crown of Best Actress. At only 21 years old, she became the Queen of Hundred Flowers, setting a historic record. It has to be admirable.

After the awards ceremony, Zhang Ziyi approached Xiang Nan, "I know you still blame me a little bit, I was indeed wrong about what happened before, and I hereby sincerely apologize to you."

"How do you say that?" Xiang Nan laughed, "Because of the dismal box office of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", you are worried that you will bear the burden of box office poison and affect your future development, so you want to ask me for help;

Or did you take the Hundred Flowers Shadow Empress today and saw me return empty-handed, so you were condescending and gave me an apology to show your victorious attitude? "

Zhang Ziyi's face turned green and then pale when he said that.

She knew that Xiang Nan was very popular in the film and television industry now, and many film and television companies were vying to use him. Moreover, he also got involved in the Hong Kong circle through Wang Fei, and is currently filming "Yanjing Music and Road".

And because of the failure of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" at the box office, even if she won the Hundred Flowers Queen today, she may not be able to film in the future. So she wants to reconcile with Xiang Nan, it is best to get back together, so that she can better use his connections to seek a comeback.

"Okay, I know your character, so tell me, how can you forgive me?" Zhang Ziyi gritted his teeth and said.

When Xiang Nan heard this, he laughed.

Thanks to the book friends Bugui Shenlong, Mo Xueyiyun, and sister Xiaxia for their rewards, I am grateful!
