Chapter 2017 2019 [Slumdog Millionaire]
Seeing that Zhang Yuqi was uncertain, Xiang Nan then made an appointment with Xiao Song Jia, Jiang Xin and Zhang Zilin.
Xiao Song Jia became popular in 2007 with the TV series "Crossing Guandong", Jiang Xin made her debut as Mu Wanqing in "Tianlong Babu" in 2003, and Zhang Zilin was the champion of Miss World last year.
The three of them, like Zhang Yuqi, are beauties with gorgeous features and protruding figures, and they are also very suitable to play the female killer in "007: Quantum of Solace".
The three of them were also very interested after receiving the invitation, and immediately expressed that they would put down the work at hand and spare time to participate in training as soon as possible, striving to win the role of female killer.
After the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation.
The media in the Mainland and Xiangjiang are all guessing who will be the next Bond girl.
Not only the four candidates, but also other competing actresses were also included by the media.
Xiang Nan also received some resumes from brokerage companies, and hoped that he would consider them as appropriate.
For a while, who will get the new Bond girl has become the most eye-catching event in domestic entertainment.
Xiang Nan didn't make a hasty decision. He brought Xiao Song Jia, Jiang Xin, and Zhang Zilin back to Hollywood to train them and choose the most suitable candidate.
Subsequently, Zhang Yuqi also ended the filming of "Women Are Not Bad" as soon as possible, and rushed to Hollywood to meet them.
When Xiang Nan was only looking for her, she still had some old gods around, so she thought she was on the safe side. But after Xiang Nan found Xiao Song Jia, Jiang Xin, and Zhang Zilin again, she started to panic. I know that if I don't work hard enough, it is really possible to be wiped out.
Therefore, she can only rush to Hollywood as soon as possible, and train actively and hard in order to win Xiang Nan's approval.
…
Although four people are participating in the competition now, the probability of getting the role of female killer is only 1/4.
However, among the four of them, none of them withdrew, and none of them chose to give up training. They all gritted their teeth and persisted.
Because they all know that this time is really a rare opportunity.
In normal times, they would not even be able to find the door to Hollywood, but now they are only one step away.
And even if they fail this time, as long as Xiang Nan is left with a good impression, good characters will think of them in the future.
Universal Pictures, MGM Pictures, and DreamWorks Pictures release more than ten films a year, and there is always one suitable for them.
Ten thousand steps back, they really can't go to Hollywood, so they can also cooperate with ATV and Real Kung Fu Films.
These two companies are now well-known giants in the mainland entertainment industry. A large number of film and television dramas are produced every year, with good reputation and box office.
Xiang Nan was naturally very satisfied with this.
…
In March, Universal Pictures released "Slumdog Millionaire."
After the film was released, it immediately caused a sensation.
On the one hand, although this story takes place in India, the way it is told is Western-style, with both American-style romantic inspiration and European-style humanistic care. Therefore, although it is an Indian movie, it has no barriers to audiences in other regions. feel.
On the one hand, the story itself is also very good, smooth paced, suspenseful, thrilling. A good story is naturally appreciated by everyone, so although "Slumdog Millionaire" is an Indian movie, it did very well at the box office.
It won a box office of 130 million U.S. dollars in the United States, and a global box office of 310 million U.S. dollars. It is the highest-grossing movie in Indian film history.
The success of this movie also made everyone admire Xiang Nan's luck. He just went to India to take a scene. He didn't expect to choose such a successful project. It was really invincible luck.
People have to think that he went to Australia to film in the 1980s. As a result, he invested in three "Crocodile Dundee", which won billions of box office worldwide.
The success of "Slumdog Millionaire" not only made Aamir Khan stand out, but also made Xiang Nan famous in India. At that time, many Indian stars and directors hoped to cooperate with him.
Xiang Nan didn't agree blindly, but he still kept in touch with Indian filmmakers.
Because he knows that the film production level of Bollywood in India is very high. Although there is no way to compare it with Hollywood, to be honest, it is slightly better than that of the mainland. One is that the themes are bold enough, and the other is that the production is rich enough. These two points are not comparable to mainland movies.
…
In March, the Oscars ceremony was officially held.
Universal Pictures has no achievements except for Will Smith's best actor nomination for starring in "When Happy Comes Knocking".
Instead, "Transformers" produced by DreamWorks Pictures last year was shortlisted for three awards: Best Visual Effects, Best Sound Effects and Best Sound Editing.
The film stars Andrew Garfield and Blake Lively. Originally, Spielberg wanted to invite Shia LaBeouf to play the role, but Xiang Nan rejected it.
Shia LaBeouf was born in 1986. Since he was seven years old, he has performed talk shows in cafes near his home. At the age of twelve, he officially appeared in a movie, and now he is an experienced, well-known actor with good acting skills.
Spielberg appreciates his acting skills, and LaBeouf is a caring person, so he is willing to support him. But Xiang Nan knew that Shia LaBeouf was a troublemaker.
After becoming famous, he went crazy, fighting, brawling, drinking, drunk driving, verbal abuse, and even domestic violence against his girlfriend, making himself notorious.
He originally relied on the "Transformers" series and has become one of the most popular stars in Hollywood. In the end, he was expelled from the "Transformers" crew for committing suicide, and has been stuck ever since.
His behavior like this also affected the filming of "Transformers", causing the crew to change people midway, which affected the movie's box office.
…
In addition, Megan Fox also intends to star in "Transformers", but Xiang Nan was replaced by Blake Lively.
The reason is the same as the replacement of Shia LaBeouf. Megan Fox is also a strange woman who started acting as a demon after becoming famous. She insulted the director Michael Bay as Hitler, and insulted the producer Spielberg as a psychopath and was late. Leaving early to play big names, so he was fired from the "Transformers" crew.
What's more troublesome is that because Hollywood is dominated by too many people, she hardly received any big productions after that, and could only waste her time in low-budget bad movies.
So Xiang Nan was replaced by the more obedient Blake Lively.
She became famous for starring in "Gossip Girl". She is a hot fried chicken in Hollywood. She is not only beautiful but also sexy. She can perfectly replace Megan Fox.
