Jackie Chan then read the script and fell in love with it immediately.

The story of "Plan A" is very exciting. It tells the story of the passionate detective Ma Rulong, the upright and brave instructor Hong Tianci, and the righteous and evil hero Zhuo Yifei, who use strategies to eliminate the pirate Luo Sanpao.

This story is completely different from the routines of revenge, martial arts, and revenge in previous kung fu movies. It tells the story of a law enforcer who eliminates violence and brings peace to the good.

It has the same story as "Police Story", the only difference is that "Police Story" takes place in a modern city, while "Plan A" takes place in the late Qing Dynasty.

If "Police Story" is a hit, then "Plan A" must be the same.

Therefore, Jackie Chan liked this script very much and was very grateful to Xiang Nan for his efforts. "Mr. Ning, thank you for giving me such a good script. I like it so much."

"As long as you like it." Xiang Nan nodded, "Then make preparations as soon as possible."

"Okay." Jackie Chan nodded.

…

Xiang Nan then handed the project over to Jiahe for review.

Golden Harvest was very satisfied after watching it. Although the investment for this movie is a bit large, more than 7 million Hong Kong dollars, but in view of Jackie Chan's performance in the past year, they believe that the risk is still worth taking.

If Jackie Chan becomes famous, Golden Harvest will have a second action star. Moreover, since this movie has three male leads, Golden Harvest is also planning to let Sammo Hung play one.

Sammo Hung is a free man. He has previously filmed films for Golden Harvest such as "Monk San De and Chuang Mi Liu", "Mr. "Born", "Tiger and Frog", "Fazed and Confused" and so on.

Golden Harvest didn't pay much attention to him at first. Because it already had Xiang Nan at the time, and his box office appeal was far greater than the others, so Golden Harvest didn't pay much attention to Sammo Hung.

After all, Jiahe also had many talents such as the Yuan brothers and the Xu brothers at that time. Sammo Hung was considered talented, but not indispensable.

However, "Beware of Little Hands" released at the beginning of the year earned over 10 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office, and it was also released at the Golden Princess Cinema. This made Golden Harvest notice the value of Sammo Hung, so they were willing to make great efforts to recruit him.

This "Plan A" needs three protagonists, and they can just pick him up. In this way, Golden Harvest has an extra talent, and Sammo Hung can also star in a big production. It can be said to be the best of both worlds.

After Sammo Hung received the invitation, he readily agreed.

On the one hand, after all, he and Golden Harvest had been in a relationship for many years. After Bruce Lee passed away, Hong Kong Kung Fu movies were not very popular for a time, and all the movies that tried to imitate Bruce Lee were sold out.

Sammo Hung's life was not easy at that time, and he even considered changing his career to become a chef. At that time, it was Jiahe who provided him with monthly funding to help him get through those years.

And Sammo Hung is a very loyal person who cherishes old friendships. With this kind of kindness, it is naturally difficult for him to refuse Jiahe's solicitation.

On the one hand, Sammo Hung is a big brother, but Princess Jin doesn’t take him seriously and has no intention of letting him start his own company. He is also unwilling to join Xinyi City or Yongjia as a younger brother.

After all, it is one thing to be loyal, but it is another thing to be a younger brother. He, Mai Jia, and Chen Xunqi can be loyal, but they must not be inferior to others.

But Golden Harvest promised him that he could set up his own film industry, so Sammo Hung was naturally more willing to cooperate with Golden Harvest.

After Sammo Hung joined "Plan A", he also brought his junior brother Yuen Biao over and recommended him to play the third male lead, Hong Tianci.

Yuen Biao, Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung are brothers in the same school. Unlike Jackie Chan who likes to work alone, Yuen Biao has always followed Sammo Hung and is very loyal.

Sammo Hung is also very worthy of this junior brother. He praised him for filming "Lam Sai Wing", "The Family Guy", "Tiger Frog" and many other movies, making him even more popular now.

The three heroines were ready, and the filming of the movie officially started.

…

In April, the filming of "The Best Partner" was announced.

Xiang Nan is also preparing to leave for Hollywood to shoot the new film "The Dragon King 2".

This movie was also written by Xiang Nan. It tells the story of a former disciple of Professor Li who returns to the city and uses Jeet Kune Do to form a gang, dominate the area, and even infiltrate evil forces into the school.

In the end, the protagonist Daniel relied on the Jeet Kune Do killer move taught by Li Mi to defeat the disciple and restore peace to the story.

The formulas for these types of heroes' growth movies are actually pretty much the same, basically divided into three steps: acquiring abilities, reflecting on abilities, and mastering abilities.

For example, in the "Iron Man" trilogy, in the first part, Tony becomes Iron Man and gains superhuman abilities; in the second part, he begins to reflect on whether his abilities bring hope or destruction;

In the third part, even though he lost the steel suit, he still mustered up the courage and used his wisdom to defeat his opponents, proving that even without the steel suit, he is still a hero, allowing his spirit to sublime...

In this three-step strategy, it is a very common routine to set up a villain with comparable abilities but evil behavior for the protagonist.

In the "Spider-Man" trilogy, there is a dark Spider-Man possessed by venom; in the "Iron Man" trilogy, there is a whip cord that can also build the Ark; in the "Captain America" ​​trilogy, there is a person who has been injected with the same serum The Red Skull and Winter Soldier; there is a more powerful abomination in "The Incredible Hulk"; there is the evil General Zod in "Superman: Man of Steel"...

Xiang Nan is also very familiar with these routines, so in the second part, he set up an opponent for himself, who is stronger than himself and more vicious than himself... Only in this way can the confrontation between the two powers be watchable.

Otherwise, in the first part, the protagonist has already dominated the campus. If the second part does not have a strong opponent, the movie will be too boring.

…

Xiang Nan had already submitted this script to Warner Bros. for review at the beginning of the year.

After Warner reviewed it, it said there was no problem.

There is just one small problem, and that is how the heroine should deal with it.

The previous heroine was Brooke Shields, and her salary was relatively expensive. The last time I used her, I was worried that Xiang Nan would not be able to support the box office, so I asked Brooke Shields to support the scene.

But now that Xiang Nan has enough popularity and box office appeal, there is no need to hire Brooke Shields. In that case, a lot of money can be saved.

Xiang Nan has nothing to do with this.

He has an affair with Brooke Shields but there is no personal relationship, so it's okay to have her. He won't object if another actor is chosen.

So Warner began casting new characters.

"Charles, are you going to dump me?" That night, Xiang Nan received a call from Brooke Shields.

"What did you say? What did you say?" Xiang Nan asked in confusion.
Chapter completed!
