In the end, "Game of the Brave 2: Fighting the Peak" has a North American box office of 350 million U.S. dollars and a global box office of 1.2 billion U.S. dollars, which is quite a good result.
So "Game of the Brave 3" was put on the schedule.
…
In July, "Fast and Furious 7" was released.
This movie tells the story of the grievances between Tang Boss' team and the hacker leader Cypher.
The story is actually nothing new, it is all routine, but the scene is spectacular enough.
Especially in this movie, for the sake of visual impact, even submarines are used, which is naturally exciting for the audience.
Combined with the popularity of the previous six works, once "Fast and Furious 7" was released, it was airborne at the top of the weekly box office chart.
The final North American box office was 450 million US dollars, and the global box office was 1.24 billion US dollars.
Xiang Nan once again created a new personal box office record, and also proved to the world that although he is over 60 years old, he is still young.
Just wait until the last film is finished, and he can retire smoothly.

In August, "Black Panther" was released.
This is the second African-American superhero single film in the United States, the first being "Blade Warrior".
Although DC also has African-American superheroes, only the Cyborg in "Justice League" has appeared so far, and there has not been a single movie.
The storyline of "Black Panther" is the same as the original version, and even the casting has not changed much.
Because the original version of "Black Panther" was very successful. Although the plot is a bit **** and has been criticized in China, "Black Panther" is still very popular in other parts of the world.
African-American audiences, in particular, praised this movie to the sky, thinking that it greatly honored African-Americans and was a symbol of the rise of African-American power.
Because of this, it achieved a very good box office and word-of-mouth after its release, and was even shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Picture.
And you must know that even Nolan's "Batman" trilogy and Zack Snyder's "Watchmen" do not have such glory.
So Xiang Nan didn't take any action to correct it, so "Black Panther" earned 700 million US dollars in North America alone, and the global box office was 1.32 billion US dollars, which was even more popular than "Iron Man 3" and "Captain America 3".
It can also be seen from this that Hollywood film companies are politically correct, which seems to be doctrine, but it is actually business.

And it is rich in resources. In addition to mineral resources such as gemstones, gold mines, uranium mines, and copper mines, there are also countless rare birds and animals. It is like a kingdom of unknown creatures, magical, magnificent, radiant, full of temptation, and fascinating.
Therefore, fighting here has more visual impact. The reason why people go to the theater to watch movies is to get better audio-visual enjoyment.
"King Kong 2: Battle to the Center of the Earth" guarantees this very well. The vast and magnificent underground world, all kinds of underground creatures, exciting and fierce fighting scenes, and gorgeous and spectacular special effects make this movie a very good explosion. Rice Krispies.
In addition, although the story is old-fashioned, it finally passed. Therefore, in the end, "King Kong 2: Battle for the Center of the Earth" has a North American box office of 280 million US dollars and a global box office of nearly 800 million US dollars. The results are still very good.
It only cost $150 million, after all. With the success of this movie, "Godzilla 3" is also on the agenda, and it will deal with the chief monster that is more terrifying than Ghidorah-the horde of death.

In October, Xiang Nan met Clara for coffee during filming.
Clara's original name is Li Chengmin, and her father is the lead singer of the well-known music group Gao Liyana. The most classic song of this group is the theme song of the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games "Hand in Hand".
Because she was born in an acting family, Clara debuted as a model at the age of 18 in 2004. She also won the first place in South Korea's first online beauty photo contest, and starred in her first TV series in 2006.
In 2015, he entered the mainland and became famous because of his bold performance in "Love Saint". After that, he participated in films such as "Fat Rangers", "Calling Crazy", "Silent Witness" and so on.
Basically, they mainly show off their figure and sex. Fortunately, the capital is rich, so it is still very popular.
Xiang Nan had also watched "Love Saint" before and was impressed by her performance, so he invited her to play an Asian killer in "John Wick 4".
Now her role has been wrapped, and she will return to China soon. So before she left, Xiang Nan wanted to communicate with her.
Clara naturally readily attended the appointment.
Although Xiang Nan wants to sell Universal Pictures, which will greatly reduce his power in Hollywood, he is still the top richest man with a net worth of hundreds of billions of dollars.
Just saying this makes her very attractive.
So when she was co-shooting "John Wick 4", she had already been firing Xiang Nan non-stop. Now that her dream has come true, she can't wait.
…
After some in-depth exchanges, Xiang Nan also promised Clara that he would try his best to arrange better roles for her in the new films shot by Real Kung Fu in the future, and even match her up in Hollywood.
Although he sold Universal Pictures, it seems that his power in Hollywood has been greatly reduced, but in fact he is still the most influential existence in Hollywood.
On the one hand, he has plenty of money. In a capitalist society, money is everything. With money in hand, he can reorganize the film and television company at any time. It is not impossible to rebuild a Hollywood giant with his talent and financial resources.
On the one hand, he has a lot of contacts. He has worked hard in Hollywood for nearly 50 years. He has been popular since the early 1980s, and he has made many stars popular.
Such as Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, Hugh Jackman, Robert Downey, Chris Evans, Ryan Reynolds…
Too many first-line directors have worked with him, Steven Spielberg, James Cameron, Peter Jackson, Christopher Nolan, David Fincher, Martin Scorsese...
If he wants to make someone popular, he can still make him popular. On the contrary, if he wants to step on someone, he will still be unable to turn over. In Hollywood, he has such strength.
Clara naturally knew this too, so she obeyed him and obeyed everything he said.
