Xu Nan has continued to be successful, and the North American box office of "Falling Cherry Blossom Axe Washington" has exceeded 270 million US dollars.

If he were a Mi countryman, with such achievements, he would have been recognized as a great director long ago.

But Xu Nan is a foreigner, and the success of his film seems to have an element of luck.

Let's not talk about the previous few copycat porcelain films, take "Titanic 2", a world-famous movie, for example, if it were not for the support of the theater chain and the assistance of Cameron, it would not have been possible to have a box office of hundreds of millions.

As for "Falling Sakura God Axe Washington", if it weren't for Paris, even if Xu Nan promoted it effectively, it was a question whether the box office could exceed 100 million.

Regardless of whether Xu Nan thinks so or not, people in the circle think so, and they always feel that Xu Nan's success depends on luck, and he feels that he has no strength.

So many people are paying attention to Xu Nan's next movie, if his next movie can still be successful, then there is no doubt that Xu Nan has strength.

Or he already has the strength, but the insiders can always find an excuse to say that he doesn't have it before, but as long as Xu Nan succeeds again, the insiders will have no excuse.

But Lin Ziyi has a different opinion from others, she knows that Xu Nan is powerful, and in China, Xu Nan's two movies have achieved great success, and they both rely on marketing.

Although the quality is not very good, the box office is real.

Regardless of whether he is a black cat or a white cat, he is a good cat if he can catch mice.

Xu Nan's new movie should have a good box office performance, and it is also a good resource to be able to ask for a role, and many people can break their heads when they are released, and even many people are willing to be unspoken rules.

Xu Nan shook his head: "There is no shortage of actors in my new movie, and besides, the cost of my film is very low, and I can't pay too high a salary." ”

Lin Ziyi said: "It doesn't matter, your movie, many newcomers are willing to pay even if they are upside down." ”

Xu Nan repeated: "I have no shortage of actors. ”

Lin Ziyi was a little regretful: "Okay, then forget it, by the way, what's the name of your new movie?" ”

Xu Nan immediately said: "This needs to be kept secret, you will know when the movie is released." ”

Lin Ziyi glanced at Xu Nan and didn't say anything.

Hollywood does have a tradition of keeping large projects secret, and there have even been cases where actors get the script and don't know what the name of the movie is.

But it's a bit difficult to understand that you rely on marketing and keep it secret.

This is the consequence of Mr. Xu Nan's crooked ways, even if he continues to succeed, people will subconsciously be prejudiced against him, even if it is an acquaintance.

This is the same as playing e-sports, the country recognizes it as a formal sport, and there are still many people who think that it is not a proper job.

There is no way, what you gain has to lose something, the world is very fair.

At this moment, a lean old man in a formal dress, black-rimmed glasses, a serious face, and brown and white hair walked over.

Lin Ziyi took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, Mr. Spielberg." ”

Xu Nan was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.

It turned out that this was Spielberg, the top director in the United States.

Cameron started out as a truck driver and became a director by chance, so he didn't shoot many films.

But Spielberg is different, he has loved movies since he was a child, he has been making experimental short films since he was not in college, and he has been making films since he was less than thirty years old, and it has been almost forty years now.

After more than 40 years of continuous filmmaking, Spielberg has accumulated an astonishing number of works, from science fiction films, war films, biopics, and even literary films, Spielberg can shoot them, and his style can be described as varied.

At the same time, Spielberg is also the director with the highest cumulative box office in the United States, and has won countless awards. Spielberg is different, he has dozens of successful films, many of which are groundbreaking.

For example, "Jaws" won the annual box office champion of the year, opening the genre of monster disaster films.

There's also "Jurassic Park", and "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and so on.

Spielberg's successful works are so numerous that they are too numerous to count.

Most directors make movies with high and low quality, but Spielberg is amazing, no matter what type of movie he makes, the quality is above the standard.

Maybe he doesn't have an epoch-making work like Cameron's "Titanic", but there are too many works of secondary order.

And in addition to being a successful director, Spielberg is also the owner of a film and television company, and his DreamWorks Film and Television is one of the largest entertainment giants in the United States, second only to the three major theater chains.

Qualifications, status, and net worth, Spielberg is all first-class, no wonder Lin Ziyi takes the initiative to say hello.

Facing Lin Ziyi, a smile appeared on Spielberg's serious face.

"Beautiful lady, your beauty is like the sun in the sky, lighting up the whole hall."

Lin Ziyi smiled slightly: "Thank you." ”

The two of them quickly began to talk, and Xu Nan listened carefully beside him.

It turns out that Spielberg's latest work is about to be released, hoping to get Lin Ziyi to give him a higher schedule.

Of course, this is right away, in fact, it will take a long time, more than half a month later, the movie will not be so easy, schedule, theaters, publicity, etc., a lot of things have to be done.

The bigger the production, the more complicated this aspect becomes.

It's like a cottage touching porcelain, and you can pick it up for a time.

For Spielberg's new movie, Lin Ziyi also attaches more importance to it, this is a big production of DreamWorks, you don't need to watch the quality of the movie first, just relying on Spielberg's name, when it is released, the number of theaters and the schedule will not be low.

Great directors have this privilege.

Of course, the specific number of theaters and film schedules can only be decided after watching movies, and the theater chain has always been strict in this regard.

Regarding Lin Ziyi's conditions, Spielberg was quite satisfied and nodded slightly.

At this time, he suddenly noticed Xu Nan: "This is"

Lin Ziyi introduced: "He is Xu Nan. ”

Spielberg knew who it was in an instant, the director of Huaxia, no one in the circle didn't know.

He just hasn't seen Xu Nan, it doesn't mean he hasn't heard of it.

Xu Nan nodded towards Spielberg: "Mr. Steven, I am your fan and I like your "Jaws" very much. ”

Spielberg nodded slightly: "Your movie is okay, the marketing is very good." ”

"But young people, I have to give you a piece of advice, the most important thing in a movie is quality, and marketing alone will not work."

Xu Nan nodded with a smile, with a teachable expression.
