In November, "The Best Partner 2" starring Xiang Nan was officially released.

The reason why he didn't grab the Spring Festival slot was mainly because Xiang Nan wanted to give the opportunity to Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao and others.

Otherwise, if his movie gets the most investment, uses the best actors, and occupies the best time slot... then the box office will surely be indistinguishable.

In this way, it will be difficult for others to surpass him, and naturally it will be even more difficult for him to rise to the top. So Xiang Nan gave up the best schedule and randomly selected a schedule to show it.

Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao and others were all grateful after knowing his difficulties. When they were still trying hard to surpass Xiang Nan, Xiang Nan took the initiative to choose a bad road to let them pass.

This spirit of sacrificing the small self to fulfill the greater self moved them very much.

However, although "The Best of Us 2" was just randomly selected, the film was still a hit because of its compact plot, grand scenes, vivid characters, twists and turns of the story, and Xiang Nan's extraordinary box office appeal.

The final box office was more than 24 million Hong Kong dollars, which profoundly proved that your uncle is your uncle. Even if the schedule is not good enough, it still sells well at the box office.

This kind of box office appeal makes other filmmakers almost envious.

…

In December, "Die Hard 2" officially wrapped and then entered intense post-production.

Xiang Nan finally relaxed and was able to play games with Laura Fana and Michelle Pfeiffer.

It is worth mentioning that he currently has three projects on his hands, "Mermaid", "Police Academy" and "The Goonies", and he also has the casting rights for these three projects.

And now everyone knows that Xiang Nan's production is synonymous with blockbusters. Therefore, there are now a lot of people in Hollywood who want to take on his roles. In order to get a chance to perform, even if it is just an appearance, there are a lot of small roles that only last a few minutes. People are willing to sacrifice.

So there is really no shortage of beauties around Xiang Nan now, and there are as many as there are. After all, Hollywood is a distribution center for beauties from all over the world, and there is no shortage of young and beautiful girls here.

…

"Hello Cattrall, I remember your name. When I was filming "The Kid", you were one of the candidates for the leading role." Xiang Nan looked at Kim Cattrall and said.

Kim Cattrall's most well-known role is Asamantha Jones in "The City". She is uninhibited and daring, and is a goddess in the eyes of many people.

"Yes, I'm really sorry that I couldn't work with you." Cattrall said with emotion.

If she had filmed that movie back then, why would she have wasted so many more years?

"There is no need to regret. Missing the opportunity is not terrible. What is terrible is not knowing how to learn the lesson." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "In that case, no matter how many opportunities there are, you will always miss them."

"You are right. Charles, no matter what you ask me to do, I will do it." Cattrall immediately expressed his stance.

"Look, you said the wrong thing again. It's not what I want you to do, but what you have to do to satisfy me." Xiang Nan waved his hand.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong, I will correct it immediately." Cattrall said immediately, and then started to take action.

…

Late December, Christmas time.

"Die Hard 2" is officially released.

Compared with the first part, its scenes are bigger, two planes were blown up; the plot is more twists and turns, the story is more complex, and it is more watchable.

Therefore, after its release, the box office performance and audience reputation were quite good, even compared with "Raiders of the Lost Ark" starring Harrison Ford and directed by Spielberg, which was released at the same time.

Such box office results also shocked the industry.

Counting this "Die Hard 2", Xiang Nan has released three blockbusters this year.

"Ghostbusters", "Back to the Future", "Die Hard 2"... Such abilities are really shocking.

In Hollywood, capital is king, and whoever can make money will be the most favored by them.

Therefore, as Xiang Nan continued to create box office miracles, he also received strong support from capital, and his film salary increased to an unprecedented amount of tens of millions of dollars.

Newspapers and media reported his news extensively, and the most watched programs in the United States, "Saturday Night Live", "The Larry King Show", and "Good Morning America" ​​all competed to invite him to be a guest.

Raymond White, who had deliberately plotted against him on the show, now also took the initiative to send interview invitations to Xiang Nan, but Xiang Nan refused them all.

He has not forgotten how Raymond White treated him so slowly, and now he wants to be on the show to help him increase ratings. It is really a daydream!

…

In early January 1984, Xiang Nan returned to Xiangjiang.

At this time, "Five Lucky Stars" began to be released.

This movie has gathered many big-name stars. In addition to Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, and Jackie Chan, there are also stars such as Feng Suifan, Wu Yaohan, Qin Xianglin, Shum Jianxun, Chung Chuhong, Xia Wenxi and other stars.

Even the guest stars are all big names, such as Zhao Zhiling, Xigua Shao, Cao Dahua, Kit Chan, Xu Anhua, Wu Ma, Li Saimin, Ye Tong, etc. It can be said that it is a gathering of stars.

So many big-name stars are enough to attract the audience to the theater. What's more, the story of "The Five Lucky Stars" is so interesting, especially the five lucky stars playing tricks and making lots of jokes. It simply makes the audience grin from ear to ear, and the box office is naturally It's not bad.

The final box office was more than 23 million Hong Kong dollars. Although it was not as good as "The Best of Us 2", it has already gained fame.

The three brothers Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, and Jackie Chan have become the guarantee of the box office. The combined box office appeal of the three of them is not weaker than Xiang Nan.

This is already worth it for Jiahe.

After all, it is really rare for a talent like Xiang Nan to thrive in Hollywood.

…

Xiang Nan didn't stay in Xiangjiang for too long. He only stayed for less than half a month before returning to the mainland.

During his stay in Hong Kong, he mainly accompanied Zhong Chuhong, Guan Zhilin and Xia Wenxi.

After not seeing each other for more than half a year, the three of them have become even more beautiful, which makes it harder for him to let go of them, damn it.

"Haney, do you think I can go to Hollywood to develop my career?" Guan Zhilin asked Xiang Nan expectantly.

"If you are just filming, of course you can. I can always help you arrange a role." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "But it will be difficult for you to become famous."

"Why?" Guan Zhilin asked in surprise, "Do you think I'm not as beautiful as those European and American celebrities?"

"That's not true. In terms of appearance, you are definitely no worse than them." Xiang Nan smiled, "The key is that Hollywood has never been short of beauties. Moreover, beauties may not be popular in Hollywood."

Brooke Shields, Jennifer Connery, Denise Richards, Nicole Kidman... these are all top beauties, but they are not very popular.

The top actresses in Hollywood are the ones who are not very beautiful. Such as Julia Roberts, Sandra Bullock, Meryl Streep, Susan Sarandon, Whoopi Goldberg, etc.
