Chapter 1865 1867 [Golden Globe Awards]
Xiang Nan then convinced Cong Shan's parents and his own parents.
The process is also very simple, he hinted that if he can't get married secretly, then he has been procrastinating not to get married.
Ning Wei's parents and Cong Shan's parents were looking forward to their early marriage, and they didn't want to procrastinate any longer, so they had no choice but to agree to Xiang Nan's conditions.
The two families picked a good day and had a meal together. Xiang Nan and Cong Shan were considered married. But in fact, the two did not receive a certificate.
After getting married, Xiang Nan and Cong Shan didn't stay at home for a few days, and went to the United States together, living in Xiang Nan's rented Beverly Hills mansion.
"In the future, you will quit the entertainment industry and become a housewife at home. Will you regret it?" Xiang Nan asked Cong Shan.
"As long as I'm with you, I won't regret it." Cong Shan hugged Xiang Nan and said sincerely.
Xiang Nan patted her head, "That's good."
…
Xiang Nan and Cong Shan had just returned to the United States, and the 46th Golden Globe Awards were held.
He participated in the production of "Rain Man" last year and was nominated for Best Screenplay, Best Film, Best Actor and Best Director.
And judging by newspaper opinion, this movie is likely to win an award.
As the screenwriter and producer of "Rain Man", Xiang Nan, once he wins the award, will naturally take great credit and great honor.
After thinking about it, Xiang Nan gave the Golden Globes a face and chose to attend the meeting.
The result really satisfied him. He successively won the Best Screenplay Award and the Best Picture Award, becoming the biggest winner in this field.
It is said that in the Best Screenplay Award, the original judges favored Neo Fangna's "Nothing". However, in the end, out of compensation considerations, they finally awarded the best screenwriter to Xiang Nan.
After all these years, Xiang Nan has created many box office masterpieces, which is enough to get a Best Screenplay Award.
Dustin Hoffman also successfully won the Best Actor Award. One shot and three shots, the results are quite good.
The most important thing is that the Golden Globe Awards have always had the reputation of the Oscar weather vane. "Rain Man" won three major awards at the Golden Globe Awards, and the Oscars may be able to reproduce its success, so naturally it has attracted much attention.
…
At the party after the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony, Xiang Nan accepted many media interviews.
"Charles, how do you feel about winning the Best Screenplay Award?" The reporter asked with a smile.
"Of course I am very happy to win the Best Screenplay Award. Everyone knows that I have no luck in winning the award. This is the first time I have won the award. I am really grateful to all the judges for their kindness." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"The Golden Globes are known as the barometer of the Oscars. How many awards do you expect "Rain Man" to win at the Oscars?" The reporter asked curiously.
"As for how many awards I can win at the Oscars, I haven't thought about it yet. Of course I hope that the more the better. But this time it seems that the competitors are very strong, and I may not be able to win." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "However, winning I am also happy to lose and happy, no matter what the result is, I will accept it."
"I heard that you have a grudge against the Oscar judges. Why didn't you attend the Oscars before?" Another reporter asked.
"This is completely out of thin air, how can there be any hatred between us." Xiang Nan laughed, "The reason why I didn't participate is because I have self-knowledge.
But the movie "Rain Man" is different. When I created this story, I didn't have commercial or entertainment considerations at all. I just wanted to write a good story. Sure enough, hard work will always be rewarded. "
…
At the party, Xiang Nan was also favored by the capital, producers, directors, and stars. Everyone liked to chat around him in order to get the opportunity to cooperate with him.
Xiang Nan mainly listens more and speaks less, because he knows the truth that if you speak too much, you will lose words. He doesn't have any new projects in hand now, so he hastily promised, but in the end he can't fulfill it, which will hurt his reputation.
However, the chat was not completely fruitless. He successfully found two new projects.
One is "Lies, Videotapes" and the other is "Beetlejuice".
These two films were recommended to him by producers Nick Hardy and John Wiesler.
These producers will look for suitable projects everywhere, and then take the projects to various Hollywood companies to lobby and raise funds for shooting.
Xiang Nan was favored by them because he had successfully invested in many films and was considered a successful investor in Hollywood.
After Xiang Nan heard about their project, he was very interested, so he decided to invest. One with an investment of 600,000 US dollars and the other with an investment of 7 million US dollars.
…
In February, the Berlin Film Festival.
"Rain Man" also received an invitation to participate in the exhibition.
Xiang Nan didn't lead the team there because he was preparing for the new movie "Speed".
"Speed" is a movie released in 1994, starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. It tells the story of a retired police officer who planted a bomb on a bus in order to retaliate against society. . Once the speed dropped below fifty yards, the car exploded.
At a critical moment, the special policeman Jack boarded the bus, used his great wisdom and bravery to eliminate the danger, rescued all the passengers, and finally brought the criminal to justice.
The plot of this movie is compact, exciting, and exciting. Therefore, after its release, it was well received and won a super high box office of 120 million US dollars. It also made Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock among the first-line .
In terms of actors, Xiang Nan chose Courtney Cox to be his partner.
Courtney Cox is Monica in the well-known American drama "Friends". She was born in 1964 and made her debut in 1985. She first worked as an advertising model, and then successively participated in film and television drama performances, accumulating a certain amount of acting experience.
The reason why Xiang Nan chose her was mainly out of his feelings for Monica. When he was depressed back then, he often watched "Friends" to relax. Therefore, the six old friends in "Friends" are like his friends.
Kourtney Cox also felt excited and excited when she learned that she was selected as the heroine of Xiang Nan's new film.
Now she is not well-known in Hollywood, not to mention starring in movies, even if it is starring in TV dramas, it is not her turn.
So now starring in "The Speed of Life and Death" with Xiang Nan, for her, it is simply a leap to the sky. She was naturally excited.
"Charles, thank you for choosing me. I promise that I will perform with my heart and will not disappoint you." Courtney said seriously.
Xiang Nan nodded with a smile, "Just try your best, but you don't have to be nervous. When filming, it's still tight inside and loose outside, so that it will be natural and there will be no trace of acting."
Kourtney's performance in "Friends" is a bit deliberate. So the other five were nominated for Emmys, and she was the only one who got a bye each time.
"Thank you, I remember." Courtney nodded.
