Chapter 2026 2028【Twilight】
"That's not necessary, you sit down first." Xiang Nan waved his hands, he still likes the natural feeling.
"Yes." Wen Yongshan sat down, and then asked with a smile, "I don't know what orders you have from me, Mr. Ning?"
"Oh, I saw your commercial, you are very beautiful, so I want to meet you in real life." Xiang Nan explained, "Well, yes, real people are also very beautiful."
Wen Yongshan still looks very beautiful, with exquisite makeup and three-dimensional facial features. Whether it is natural beauty or acquired, in short, I feel very good-looking.
"Thank you for your appreciation." Wen Yongshan was very happy when she heard it. She didn't expect that Xiang Nan, who had read all the beauties in the world, would praise herself for being beautiful, which really surprised her.
"Actually, I think that with your qualifications, you shouldn't be limited to making commercials or acting as a vase in a movie. I think you should have better development." Xiang Nan said again.
"Really?! Mr. Ning, do you really think I have potential?" Hearing what he said, Wen Yongshan was pleasantly surprised.
Xiang Nan is a world-renowned gold medal producer and a giant in Hollywood. He said he has potential, absolutely not nonsense. After all, there are really not just one or two celebrities who have become popular from him.
According to incomplete statistics, now half of Hollywood's first-line movie stars are promoted by Xiang Nan, which is enough to prove how vicious his vision is.
"Not bad." Xiang Nan nodded, "You must know that I'm currently preparing to shoot "Mission: Impossible 5". I hope you will play the role of a female killer."
"I will play "Mission: Impossible 5"?" Wen Yongshan's eyes widened.
The "Mission: Impossible" series has released four volumes, each of which is a box office and word-of-mouth hit. Especially in "Mission: Impossible 4", the scene where Xiang Nan climbs the gecko in the Yao Lingyao Building is simply a classic in film history.
"Mission Impossible 5" must also be a big hit. She once played a role in it, even if it was only a small supporting role, it would be extremely beneficial to her future development.
Just like MaggieQ, who was lucky enough to star in "Mission: Impossible 3", and then gained a firm foothold in Hollywood, starring in one movie after another, earning tens of millions of dollars a year, much better than a model like her .
But in fact, MaggieQ was also a model back then. She was only 1.7 meters tall and had a shriveled figure. She also became popular by virtue of her mixed-race facial features, just like these models.
"What, you don't want to act?" Xiang Nan asked.
"No, I want to act, I want to act." Wen Yongshan nodded repeatedly.
"That's fine, you pack up the work at hand and spare at least three months." Xiang Nan said again.
"Okay, okay." Wen Yongshan responded repeatedly.
…
Subsequently, the news that Wen Yongshan appeared in "Mission: Impossible 5" was reported by the Hong Kong media, which caused an uproar.
On the one hand, Wen Yongshan was born as a supermodel. Although she has been making movies, photo shoots and commercials in the past two years, she is busier than a supermodel.
But her origin is still an original sin.
On the one hand, "Mission Impossible 5" is definitely a big cake. The investment for this film will not be less than 200 million US dollars, and it will also cooperate with top superstars Xiang Nan and Natalie Portman.
For all actors in Xiangjiang, this is a dream opportunity. Unexpectedly, Xiang Nan chose to cooperate with Wen Yongshan. A model who has no professional acting training and can only show off her cuteness and sexuality.
But for Xiang Nan, such disputes are meaningless, because he knows that his choice is absolutely correct.
Although Wen Yongshan caused a lot of controversy, it also increased her exposure sharply, and her popularity increased greatly for a while.
Besides, starring in "Mission: Impossible 5" will also increase her celebrity status, so many advertisers and media have seen the benefits, and have asked her to shoot commercials, cover shots, and interviews.
As soon as "Mission: Impossible 5" is released, Wen Yongshan will become a star, and these advertising endorsements and magazine covers will be worth a lot. Therefore, Wen Yongshan made a lot of profits for a while, and in Xiangjiang, it was also flourishing, and it was extremely nourishing.
…
Xiang Nan stayed in Xiangjiang for half a month, and then returned to Hollywood.
At this time, Universal Pictures is releasing the movie "The Twilight Saga" starring Grant Gustin and Lily Collins.
The original novel was released in 2005. After it was launched, it caused a great sensation among young readers, and it was on the "New York Times" bestseller list for as many as fifty-five weeks.
The reason why it is so popular is that on the one hand, fantasy themes, adventures with twists and turns, and strange and magnificent fantasies bring readers novel and interesting reading pleasure.
On the one hand, the author Stephen Melny is a graduate of English literature, so his works are full of British romanticism, and his brushstrokes are quite delicate and beautiful, so he is very attractive to young readers.
Shortly after the novel was released, the film and television adaptation rights were bought by Universal Pictures. This "Twilight Saga: The Twilight" is the first film adaptation.
The film faithfully reproduces the content of the original work, retains and magnifies the mysterious, fantasy, and romantic elements of the original work, and is very friendly to readers.
For viewers who haven't read the book, it doesn't prevent them from enjoying the movie. Therefore, after "Twilight Saga" was released, it sold well at the box office.
The North American box office is 180 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office is 350 million U.S. dollars. And its cost is less than 60 million US dollars, it can be said to be a very successful movie.
So "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" was immediately scheduled.
It is worth mentioning that more than 60% of the box office of "Twilight" is contributed by female audiences. This is very different from other movies.
Generally speaking, the proportion of male audience in the film market is slightly larger, about 55%. And when it comes to choosing which movie to watch, about 60% of them are decided by men.
But "Twilight" is the other way around, female audiences contributed more box office, which makes the industry a little curious.
…
Moreover, the box office performance of "Twilight" is so good that the industry is envious.
Because of the previous box office failures of "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian", "Dark Materials Trilogy: The Golden Compass" and "Tales from Earthsea", Hollywood has given up little hope of adapting fantasy novels.
It is generally believed that movies that sell well like "Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter" are just alternatives. Most of the movies adapted from fantasy novels can only hit the street.
Therefore, the popularity of fantasy movies started with "Lord of the Rings", and now it has gradually died down, and Hollywood companies have basically given up such movies.
But I didn't expect that the big hit of "Twilight" launched by Universal Pictures once again showed that it wasn't the adaptation of fantasy novels that couldn't do it, it was filmmakers like them who couldn't do it.
For a while, the industry was deeply moved.
