Because with the popularity of the "Home Alone" series, Macaulay Culkin's parents were so proud that they couldn't find their way around.
The conditions they offered became more and more harsh, and they directly told Xiang Nan that if Macaulay Culkin was still to be used in "Home Alone 3", several other children in his family would have to appear in the film.
Moreover, it was even proposed to change the protagonist to two people. One is naturally Macaulay, and the other is his sister or brother. In this way, not only will their family get more salary, but they will also have another famous star.
Naturally, Xiang Nan was very dissatisfied with their insatiable behavior. He bluntly stated that there would be no more "Home Alone 3" to put an end to their greed.
The behind-the-scenes turmoil of "Home Alone 2" has attracted a lot of media reports.
After watching it, most of the audience criticized Culkin's parents for being too shameless and treating their children as cash cows. If they do this, they will ruin the child's life.

"Mr. Ning, I've never heard of "The Joy Luck Club"." Li Jiaxin asked doubtfully.
"This is a very popular novella in the United States..." Xiang Nan explained.
"The Joy Luck Club" was published in ** and became very popular after its release. It sold more than 200,000 copies and was on the New York Times bestseller list for nine consecutive months. It also won the New York Times Book Award and the National Book Award. Award, Commonwealth Club Book Award, California Book Review Best of Award, Best of America Award, and more.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I could have bought it earlier. In that case, I could better understand the character." Li Jiaxin complained.
Her acting skills were not good to begin with, and now that she is sharpening her skills in battle, her acting skills are even worse.
