In December, "Police Story 2" officially wrapped.

Xiang Nan couldn't wait for it to be released, so he rushed to the United States without stopping, where "The Expendables" was waiting for him.

This made Zhong Chuhong very reluctant to give up.

They had just been together, less than a month ago, and they were still not tired of each other. They had to live apart, which she really couldn't bear.

"Be good, I'll come back to see you after I finish filming." Xiang Nan reassured her, "Or you can come to the United States to visit the class."

Zhong Chuhong had no choice but to nod.

…

After Xiang Nan came to the United States, he saw many things. Columbia Pictures had almost prepared them, and only the main actors were left to be selected by him.

"The Expendables" has five main characters, including four Expendables and one heroine. In the original version, the four Expendables members were all university professors.

But Xiang Nan is too young to be a professor, so he is set to be a college student. Other characters are chosen based on his age.

In the end, Xiang Nan selected several outstanding actors, namely Tom Hanks, Jim Carrey, Nicolas Cage, and Tom Cruise.

Such a cast can be called a magical lineup. However, in 1982, most of them were still unknowns.

Tom Hanks only became popular with "Mermaid" in 1985; Jim Carrey only became popular with "Planet" and "The Man in Disguise" in 1994; Nicolas Cage only became popular with "Birds" in 1984. "People" gained industry attention; Tom Cruise only became famous with "Top Gun" in 1986...

Therefore, when Xiang Nan invited them to star in the huge production "Ghostbusters" with an investment of more than 25 million US dollars, they all agreed without hesitation without any intention of shirk.

As for the heroine, Xiang Nan chose Phoebe Cates, a young actress who had just become famous with "The Open School".

Although she only plays a small supporting role in the film, she has become the dream lover of teenagers across the United States thanks to a series of scenes of her having sex in a bath, and is even more popular than the heroine.

…

Seeing that Xiang Nan's new film did not cast her as the heroine, Brooke Shields and Michelle Pfeiffer both called specifically.

They all hope to star in this big production.

On the one hand, big-budget movies tend to be more likely to be hits because they have a stronger star cast, better production, and are more willing to spend money on promotion. With the combination of powerful forces, the possibility of a box office hit is naturally greater.

On the one hand, Brooke Shields and Michelle Pfeiffer, although they have gained a certain degree of popularity with "The Kid" and "Die Hard", their subsequent development has been unsatisfactory.

The movie "Probation" starring Brooke Shields in "The Kid 2" and "The Dangerous Hour" starring Michelle Pfeiffer after "Die Hard" all experienced sluggish box office results, which also caused both movies to be sluggish. His box office appeal has been questioned by the industry.

Therefore, they urgently need a movie with a good box office to get them out of the quagmire of box office failure. This "Ghostbusters" was originally supposed to be their savior, but unexpectedly, Xiang Nan chose Phoebe Cates as the heroine. , which naturally makes them feel very unfair.

"I need some new faces, and the audience also wants to see fresh combinations." Xiang Nan explained, "Don't worry, I will still use you in "Die Hard 3/Die Hard 2."

The reason why he chose Phoebe Cates was mainly because she was the new dream girl of teenagers across the United States and a good target for him to flirt with. As for Brooke Shields, Michelle Pfeiffer is certainly better than Phoebe in terms of looks. ·Cates is much stronger, but after all, there is no freshness.

Hearing what Xiang Nan said, Brooke Shields and Michelle Pfeiffer had no choice but to give up.

If the quarrel continues, it will be terrible if they are not used in the sequel.

…

After the cast was assembled, filming began immediately.

The filming process was relatively smooth. Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise, Nicolas Cage, Jim Carrey and others are not big stars now. They are not even ranked stars. They are third or fourth tier at most. artist.

Xiang Nan is already a top Hollywood star, so when they cooperate, they try their best to please Xiang Nan. And Xiang Nan knows the potential of these people, so naturally he is willing to make friends with them.

As a result, everyone got along very well, and within a few days, Xiang Nan became friends with them.

As for Phoebe Cates, she is also happy to promote the scandal with Xiang Nan.

Although she is now the dream girl of American teenagers, everyone knows how quickly young people's minds change.

What's more, there are so many beauties in Hollywood with good looks and good figures. As long as they dare to take off their clothes and show off, anyone can copy her success.

Therefore, her position is very unstable and she may be ousted by latecomers at any time.

Just like the so-called [Otaku Goddess], at the beginning, this title was relatively valuable. Later, there were more and more Otaku Goddess, and Otaku Gods couldn't even use it.

Therefore, in order to consolidate her position, she must also maintain exposure and the support of good works.

And Xiang Nan is considered a top artist in today's Hollywood, no worse than Stallone, Al Pacino, and Harrison Ford.

Hyping up scandals with him will definitely maintain high exposure. This has been verified by Brooke Shields and Michelle Pfeiffer. Every time they have scandals with Xiang Nan, they create quite a stir.

Moreover, Xiang Nan can write and act, and has outstanding talent. If you have a good relationship with him, there will be many good works in the future. Therefore, Phoebe Cates and Xiang Nan hit it off right away.

Soon the photos of the two dating and kissing were published in the media.

"Charles is dating Phoebe Cates, and the talent and beauty are a perfect match~"

"Charles praised Phoebe for her cheerful and unpretentious character, which seems to be the connotation of his ex-girlfriend Brooke Shields~"

"Phoebe Cates praised Xiang Nan for his talent and confidence in the box office of his new work."

"Brooke Shields seems to have responded, hoping to find a dedicated boyfriend."

"Charles and Phoebe kiss, their romance is real~"

"Phoebe Cates seems to be responding to Brooke Shields, saying that Charles is very cautious about relationships."

"Michelle Pfeiffer speaks out in support of Phoebe Cates, Charles is not one to play with emotions."

"Shocking! Brooke Shields played with Charles' feelings, and the two fell in love because of her~"

The media's irresponsible reporting and the intrusion of Brooke Shields and Michelle Pfeiffer made the scandal extra exciting and naturally occupied a lot of space, making Xiang Nan, Phoebe Cates, and Brooke Shields, Michelle Pfeiffer's popularity has increased.

For them, this is naturally a good thing.

So everyone enjoyed it and the speculation became even more intense.
