Xiang Nan knew that Melanie Laurent was a talented woman who liked to study acting and create. So he took advantage of her and talked to her about creation.
He is certainly no stranger to creation. In the world of "Little Willing", he lived until the 1970s. He had basically watched all the excellent films and TV series produced at that time, which was nearly half a century ahead of today's Hollywood.
Therefore, for him, there are so many good stories that he can never finish writing or filming them. Therefore, facing Melanie, he has half a century of knowledge to crush her, and it is naturally easy to conquer her.
Melanie was also quickly impressed by Xiang Nan's talent, and she was so impressed by him.
Xiang Nan later invested in her new film "Kiss My Love", which tells a twists and turns and bizarre love story.

In October, Universal Pictures released "Bad Bosses," which tells the story of three employees who are bullied in the workplace and decide to join forces to take revenge on their bastard boss. Originally their design was just a prank, but things took an unexpected turn...
This is a dark humorous film, full of absurdity. However, because of the exquisite and meticulous arrangement of the story, the audience did not feel that the development of the story was abrupt when watching the movie. Instead, it was unexpected, reasonable, and full of surprises.
In addition, the performances of several actors are also amazing. They make jokes, laugh and curse, which is really wonderful. What's more, workplace bullying is something that every working person will encounter. The experiences of the three protagonists in the movie are also empathetic to them and they have a sense of empathy.
Therefore, in the end, the movie resonated with everyone, so it achieved good reputation and box office. In the end, the North American box office was US$110 million and the global box office was US$210 million.
For a small-budget comedy film with an investment of only 30 million US dollars, such box office results are simply amazing.
…
In November, the movie released by Universal Pictures was " Gambit 2 ".
It tells the story of Gambit meeting the big boss Mr. Sinister, and with his help, he goes back to the past to save his lover.
But Mr. Sinister didn't tell him that after Gambit returned to the past, it was equivalent to restarting the timeline, so the result was not what Gambit wanted.
This is just like the fable of "The Three Monkeys' Paws". Your wish will indeed come true, but the method of realizing it is unacceptable to you. "Kaitan 2" tells such a story.
At the end of the story, mutants reappeared, with new versions of Professor X, Magneto, Mystique, Beast, Shockwave, and the old version of Wolverine all appearing. This is also the most exciting moment for movie fans.
There are many movie fans who are reluctant to let go of the "X-Men" series and the "Wolverine" series. Now is the time, the timeline is restarted, and the story of the X-Men is back.
As a result, Gambit 2 was a box office hit, with a North American box office of US$250 million and a global box office of nearly US$700 million. The results were quite good.
…
In December, the long-awaited "Men in Black 3" was released. Ten years have passed since the second part.
The reason why it took so long to get "Men in Black 3" was mainly because Will Smith's salary was too expensive. In recent years, he has been one of the most expensive stars in Hollywood, with a salary of US$35 million per film, plus a 15% profit share.
The film company asked him to film a movie, and after a lot of trouble, he might not make as much as he did. So Xiang Nan obviously wrote the script for "Men in Black 3" early tomorrow, but because it was too expensive, filming has not started yet.
The reason why he finally decided to shoot this movie was mainly because Will Smith gave in and decided to only charge 20 million US dollars in box office plus 10% profit sharing.
The reason why he gave in was mainly to pave the way for his son. Because Xiang Nan was stuck on "Kung Fu Dream 2" and was unwilling to invest in filming anymore. And "Beast Boy" starring Jaden Smith himself, with an investment of 30 million US dollars, only received less than 20 million US dollars at the box office, and its reputation was a mess.
Seeing that his son's stardom is not guaranteed, Will Smith naturally hopes that Xiang Nan will restart "Kung Fu Dream 2". In this case, Jaden Smith can turn around.
Otherwise, with his box office performance, no film company would be willing to hire him to film. By then, the son's future will be over.
So an agreement was reached. He reduced his salary to star in "Men in Black 3", while Xiang Nan restarted "Kung Fu Dreams 2".
…
"Men in Black 3" returns after ten years and fans are excited.
First of all, every one of its stories is so wonderful and full of imagination. Compared with it, other science fiction films seem too traditional and old-fashioned;
Secondly, the young and old pairing of Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith, one harmonious and the other harmonious, worked very well together and created a lot of sparks.
Therefore, the first two films are very good-looking and are regarded as science fiction classics by countless movie fans.
Therefore, "Men in Black 3" is naturally very popular. What's more, this movie also plays with time travel and nostalgic elements, making it even more popular with the audience.
Therefore, the final North American box office was US$230 million, and the global box office was US$620 million. Compared with an investment of US$180 million, this result is quite good.
However, after the filming of the "Men in Black" trilogy was completed, Xiang Nan decided to temporarily seal the project and would not start it again easily.
…
In January 2013, Xiang Nan formulated a new project for the new year.
"Skyfall", "X-Men: First Class", "The Avengers", "Midnight's Sons", "Pacific Rim", "Kung Fu Dreams 2", "Fake Family", "Gravity" , "Fast and Furious 6", "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire", "The Wolf of Wall Street".
"007: Skyfall" tells the story of a leak of information about all potential MI6 agents, and Bond is ordered to investigate the real culprit.
"X-Men: First Class" is the first story of the X-Men after the restart of the X-Men universe timeline. The original X-Men movie had a very confusing timeline.
The timelines of the X-Men trilogy, the X-Men reboot trilogy and the Wolverine trilogy simply don’t match up, and there are many flaws, but this time it’s almost done.
"The Avengers" is the first assembly film in the Avengers universe. Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, Thor, etc. have all had stand-alone movies before. Although Hawkeye and Black Widow have not had stand-alone movies, they have all appeared in them. The main characters have been gathered together, so naturally they can play together. .
The same is true for "Midnight's Children". Blade, Ghost Rider, and vampire Morbius have all appeared. There are also Punisher, Humanoid and Night Werewolf. They have also filmed American TV series before and have accumulated a certain degree of popularity, so it is time to give them a try.
