Chapter 2051 2053 [Pacific Rim]
"I wonder if you are interested in going to Hollywood." Xiang Nan asked with a smile.
"Of course, I am very happy." Ni Ni said in surprise when he heard it.
Many mainland movie stars want to go to Hollywood, so why would she not want to go? It's just that if you want to develop in Hollywood, you must have capital push and the support of noble people.
Now is the opportunity, she is naturally willing.
"Okay." Xiang Nan nodded, "I asked you to make this film called "Pacific Rim". It will be a sci-fi action blockbuster, very exciting."
He then briefly told the story of "Pacific Rim". This is a science fiction story, telling the story of human beings building huge mechs to fight against the invasion of alien monsters.
When this movie was released that year, it caused a strong sensation, especially among male audiences.
After all, every boy has a dream of a mecha, and they all have a passion, willing to fight to the death with the invading enemy. That's why "Ultraman", "Transformers", "Armor Warrior" and so on are so popular.
After hearing the story, Ni Ni felt very shocked.
The "Transformers" series of movies has been very popular in the past few years. Even though word of mouth has dropped again and again, it still does not prevent it from being filmed as the fourth film. The theme of "Pacific Rim" is similar to that of "Transformers", so I believe it will be popular too.
What's more, this movie is still produced by Xiang Nan. Xiang Nan's production must be a high-quality product. He has made his debut for more than 30 years, and he has almost never had a failure. She has great confidence in him.
"Mr. Ning, your story is really good. I feel very honored to be in this movie." Ni Ni nodded and said, "I will definitely work hard."
"Very good." Xiang Nan nodded, "But you really need to work hard, at least you must pass the English pronunciation. Because Hollywood filming always uses the original voice.
I don't want you to stumble over your lines, when the time comes, not only will you lose face, but mine will also be lost. "
Most artists in the mainland are not good in cultural subjects, and a score of 300 to 400 in the cultural subjects of the college entrance examination is considered good. With such grades, ordinary students can only go to junior colleges.
English is also a cultural class. Mainland artists who speak English, unless they have studied abroad, most of them speak so-so, lacking in pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary.
"Yes." Ni Ni nodded immediately.
"How about this, you go to the United States as soon as possible, in that context, you will learn things faster." Xiang Nan said again.
Ni Ni nodded. Although she still has a lot of things to do in the mainland, she decided to put down everything and go to the United States to finish filming "Pacific Rim".
Although she did so, it will cause certain losses. But she believes that as long as she finishes filming "Pacific Rim", all those losses can be made up for.
…
Xiang Nan then returned to Hollywood, and Ni Ni also rushed to Hollywood three days later to join him.
Training with her is also the French actress Léa Seydoux. She will play Bond girl Eve in the next Skyfall movie. She is not only Bond's lover, but also Bond's assistant, independent, witty and brave.
In addition, Xiang Nan also invited Dongying female artist Satomi Ishihara to play the role of the research and development personnel of Dongying mecha in "Pacific Rim". This invitation caused an uproar in Japan.
Because it is very rare for Japanese artists to come to Hollywood to film.
Although there are many Japanese elements in Hollywood movies, such as "Kill Bill", "Wolverine 2", "The Last Samurai", "Memoirs of a Geisha", "Lost in Translation", "Fast and Furious 3: Tokyo Drift" and so on,
But the Japanese artists who can gain a foothold in Hollywood are Ken Watanabe, Devon Aoki and a few others.
The reason for this is that the film industry in Japan had declined as early as the end of the 1970s. Since then, there have been basically no world-class influential movies, and naturally no world-class influential artists.
It’s like the Hong Kong film industry. When it was booming, it could still support internationally influential artists such as Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Chow Yun-fat, Zhang Manyu, Yang Ziqiong, and Li Lianjie. Now with the decline of the Hong Kong film industry, no Hong Kong movie star can gain international fame.
Satomi Ishihara, together with Léa Seydoux and Ni Ni, received English and fighting training to prepare for the filming of "Pacific Rim".
…
Xiang Nan then asked Melanie Rolland for coffee.
Melanie Laurent, born in 1983, is a French actress, young and beautiful, with a refined temperament and amazing acting skills. She has starred in "I'll Get Well", "Inglourious Basterds", "Round Up", etc. Cesar Award for Best Newcomer Actress, and multiple nominations at the Cannes Film Festival. She is a very talented and very attractive actress.
Xiang Nan noticed her, but not because of these movies, but because of "Hainan Chicken Rice" starring her and Zhang Aijia in 2005. In the film, she plays a romantic, sentimental and eccentric French exchange student. She is beautiful, pure, and loves life. She has different views on things and is very attractive.
"Miss Roland, it's an honor to meet you." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "How about it? Is the filming of "Now You See Me" going well?"
"It went very well. Mr. Charles, thank you for asking me to be in this movie." Melanie laughed. "Your script is really well written. I like this story very much. Can I ask how you came up with the idea to write this story Is there a source of inspiration and creativity?"
Melanie herself has also been a director, made some short films, and was nominated for an award at the Cannes Film Festival. She is a talented woman.
"It's very simple, because I am also a magic lover myself." Xiang Nan smiled, then put a spoon in his palm, looked at Melanie and said, "Attention, look carefully, the following is the moment to witness the miracle .One, two, three ~ change!"
He then threw the spoon into the air, and when Melanie looked up, he saw that the spoon was gone.
"Huh?! Where did it go?" She asked suspiciously.
"Touch the left pocket of your jacket." Xiang Nan laughed.
Melanie reached out her hand in doubt and found a spoon, "It's really here, how did you do it?" She asked in surprise.
Xiang Nan smiled, "It's just magic, it's meaningless if you unravel it."
Actually, he took advantage of Melanie's distraction when she looked up, and quietly stuffed the spoon into her pocket. He is proficient in stealing, and his hands and feet are agile, so naturally he will not be noticed by her.
"Okay then. Mr. Charles, you are really amazing." Melanie said admiringly.
