Chapter 2025 2027 [The originator of the model]
"The Weakness" is based on the novel "The Weakness: The Progression of the Game" by Michael Lewis.
This novel is adapted from the real experience of Michael Oher, a well-known American rugby player. It tells that Michael Oher, as an orphan, is taken in by the caring Taoxi family. The stories of American football stars.
When this movie was released that year, it got a very high box office.
"The Hangover" tells the story of several bad friends who went to Las Vegas to have a carnival while their friends were getting married. But after a hangover, the groom was missing, and there was a tiger and a baby in the room...
This is an R-rated comedy with a lot of pornography, but the more so, the more popular it is. In the end, it won a box office of 480 million US dollars, setting a box office record for an R-rated comedy.
After this film, Hollywood R-rated comedy was once all the rage.
"The Devil Proposing" tells the story of a female elite in the workplace who suddenly finds out that her visa is about to expire and she will be deported to her country of origin by the Immigration Bureau. In order to keep his career, he had to choose a fake marriage with his subordinates.
In order to cope with the inspection by the immigration bureau, the two had to leave for Alaska, where the wedding was held in the groom's hometown, which resulted in a series of jokes.
This movie also achieved a very good box office that year.
The original version was starring Sandra Bullock, but Xiang Nan plans to replace it with Jennifer Aniston.
…
"Mission: Impossible 5", Xiang Nan invited Natalie Portman to star.
Actually, this movie was originally going to be filmed in 2008. Unfortunately, Natalie accidentally strained her ligament during fighting training. After a hundred days of pain, the filming had to be postponed.
Now that she has recovered, "Mission: Impossible 5" is on the agenda again.
This one tells the story of the struggle between Ethan Hunt and the rebel organization Syndicate. In the drama version of "Mission: Impossible", Syndicate is a mysterious organization that opposes the IMF.
In addition to Natalie Portman, Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, etc. all return, and the lineup is still very strong.
…
In January, Universal Pictures released "Night at the Museum 2", which tells the story of the three villains in the museum, Ivan the Great, Napoleon and Al Capone, who are preparing to use the power of resurrection to rule the world in vain. At the critical moment, the hero jumped out again, smashing the plot of the villain and saving the world.
Night at the Museum, which was released in 2006, earned a box office of 570 million US dollars. The results are quite good, and it also laid a solid foundation for the popularity of Night at the Museum 2.
Now that "Night at the Museum 2" has been released, the box office has performed well. The box office on the first day has exceeded 80 million U.S. dollars, and the final global box office is 410 million U.S. dollars.
Although it is 160 million less than the previous game, it is still profitable. It's just that if you want to make "Night at the Museum 3", you need to look at the sales of the DVD.
If a movie doesn't do well at the box office, but sells well on DVD, then it's okay to make a sequel.
For example, "Hellboy", the box office of the movie was not high, but the DVD sales were good, so "Hellboy: The Golden Army" was filmed again.
After all, they are all businessmen, and it is impossible to let money go without making money.
For example, Disney Pictures has decided to start shooting "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader".
Originally, the box office performance of this movie was not very good, and the DVD sales after three months were not too high, but because Disney really has no good projects now.
Its "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, "National Treasure" series, "Princess Diaries" series, "Shanghai Noon" series, etc. were all taken away by Xiang Nan. Not to mention that Xiang Nan bought Marvel before it did.
As a result, apart from those cartoons, Disney’s live-action movies are in a mess. It is precisely because of this that even if the box office of "Prince Caspian" is not good, Disney does not want to give up easily.
…
In January, Xiang Nan went home to spend the New Year with his parents as usual.
After the Lantern Festival, I went to Xiangjiang for a stroll.
I took a look at the company's operating situation in the past six months, and re-adjusted the company's future development strategy.
Xiang Nan knows that the next few years will be the take-off period for entertainment in the mainland, the box office of movies will be higher and higher, and the revenue of TV dramas will also be higher and higher.
This is inseparable from the overall economic development environment in the Mainland. The better the economy develops, the more people have spare money for entertainment and consumption. And after 2008, the mainland's economy will take off, and domestic entertainment will rise during this time period.
Therefore, the next few years will be the golden period for the development of ATV and real kung fu. As long as good works can be launched, then making money is a certain thing.
For this reason, Xiang Nan specially instructed Wang Jing and Shanshan to pay special attention to the cultivation of talents, especially creative talents. Because only good works can attract audiences.
Relying on publicity and hype, relying on top stars, relying on the popularity of the subject matter, just trying to fool the audience, this road will become narrower and narrower.
…
Xiang Nan then asked Wen Yongshan to meet.
Wen Yongshan was born in 1988, and was discovered by scouts in 2002. She started to shoot print advertisements, and later participated in the shooting of MVs, movies and so on.
Because of its cute and beautiful appearance, it is very popular among young people in the Internet age, so it is favored by advertisers and the media, even more popular than supermodels such as Zhou Wenqi, Le Jier, and Xiong Dailin.
However, compared with supermodels, Wen Yongshan has many shortcomings.
For example, the height is only 165, standing with supermodels has no aura; has not received formal training, and walks loosely; other than showing off cuteness and sexuality, there is no aura at all...
Therefore, everyone is not angry calling her a model, but calling her 【僆Model】.僆 means chick, and 僆Mo is also a small model who is not qualified, and the language is derogatory.
However, derogatory returns to derogatory, Xunmo is still favored by businessmen and the media because of its low price and high quality, and its daring to show off, and its popularity is getting higher and higher.
Wen Yongshan was also honored as the originator of supermodels because of her early debut and high achievements.
Xiang Nan knew her through the movie "Equator". She played the female killer, glamorous and cool, and her performance was quite eye-catching, so she was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the Academy Awards.
It can be seen that Wen Yongshan's plasticity is still very strong, and she will not be limited to the profession of model. Xiang Nan is also willing to support her, after all, there are too few talents available in Xiangjiang entertainment industry.
"Mr. Ning, it's really an honor to meet you." Wen Yongshan said happily upon seeing Xiang Nan, with a sweet voice and a contrived expression.
