1791 【Discrimination】

The scandal between Xiang Nan and Brooke Shields has been hyped up, going back and forth between confirmation and denial, attracting countless media reports and attracting the attention of countless readers.

Affected by this, the popularity of "The Dragon King" has also increased sharply, causing the film's box office performance to rise linearly.

Before, the single-day box office was only US$500,000, but now it has skyrocketed to more than US$3 million, a six-fold increase.

The production cost of this movie is only US$4 million. Including distribution expenses and publicity expenses, it is only US$10 million.

Therefore, judging from the current box office, this movie has already recovered its cost. All future profits will be net profits. And according to the current momentum of the movie's release, Warner may earn ten to twenty million US dollars.

Such achievements are enough for Xiang Nan to gain a firm foothold in Hollywood.

After all, of the 400 to 500 movies released by Hollywood every year, only half can recover the cost. None can achieve more than double the profit, not even 10%.

Therefore, Xiang Nan, who has such a report card in his debut film, has begun to attract the attention of major Hollywood companies. Several well-known Hollywood agencies have begun to contact Xiang Nan, hoping to represent his business.

This group of people are leeches, and they will attack when there is blood. In other words, if they can take the initiative to ask for cooperation, it already shows that Xiang Nan is of sufficient value. Otherwise, they will not pay attention to him at all.

Xiang Nan also knows that without the assistance of a brokerage company, it is difficult to survive in Hollywood by relying on one's own strength.

After all, professional people do professional things. Without a brokerage company to help manage the business, he cannot take care of his own career by himself.

Especially since he is becoming more and more popular in the future, he has so much business to negotiate that he will be exhausted by himself. Therefore, he finally chose to cooperate with CAA, which will represent his business in Hollywood.

CAA is one of the most well-known brokerage companies in the United States. Although it was established late, it has developed the fastest. Many celebrities and big names are under its umbrella.

It is worth mentioning that American brokerage companies only help artists manage their business and do not have much power. Artists have the power to fire their managers at any time.



After CAA won Xiang Nan's agency rights, it immediately helped him contact business. Several film crews offered him olive branches, hoping that he could participate in the show.

However, Xiang Nan took a look and found that most of these film projects were low-cost films with investments of several million. Moreover, most of the stories were very clichéd, and there were few works that stood out to him.

Of course, there are one or two major productions with investments exceeding tens of millions of dollars. But the role played by Xiang Nan is not the protagonist, but a supporting role. In terms of character setting, most of them are villains.

Xiang Nan knows that this is because his foundation is not deep enough and his reputation is not big enough. In addition, his identity as a Chinese is also a limitation, so those high-quality film projects will not consider him.

Because of this, Xiang Nan is not in a hurry to get involved in new films.

Because with the popularity he has so easily accumulated now, if the next movie is not a hit, he will be knocked back to his original form and become a penniless artist again, so he must not be careless.

Moreover, Xiang Nan still has vague expectations in his heart. If "The Dragon King" can replicate the box office miracle in real life and achieve a box office of over 100 million US dollars.

By then, with his performance, he will definitely win the favor of big projects. Therefore, he is also waiting for opportunities.



Ramone Late Night Show live.

Xiang Nan and Brooke Shields sat on the stage and were interviewed by Raymond White.

Late Night with Raymond is a well-known talk show owned by ABC. The host Raymond White is a senior in the talk show industry and has a high reputation and status in the industry.

Everyone who can appear on this program and be interviewed by him is a well-known person.

Xiang Nan was able to appear on this show, thanks to the hype surrounding his affair with Brooke Shields. This made him, a newcomer who was originally unknown, suddenly become the focus of public opinion.

That's why Raymond Late Night Show allowed him to appear on the show to promote "The Kid". Otherwise, he would have been ineligible.

Xiang Nan was also very happy about the promotion of this show.

Because he knows that the average viewership of this program is more than 8 million, and it is one of the more popular late-night talk shows. Its status is equivalent to Blue Channel's "Run, Brother" and Tomato Channel's "Extreme Challenge".

Being able to appear on this show will naturally be very helpful in increasing his popularity.

Xiang Nan originally prepared a lot of talents to show to the audience through this show, such as singing, dancing, kung fu, etc.

You know, he performed a moonwalk in "The Dragon King", which caused quite a stir after the movie was released.

People have never seen such magical dance steps before. It looks like they are walking forward, but in the end they are sliding back. Such dance steps are really eye-catching.

And the love song "as long as you love me" is also a very popular song now. Many people have called the radio station specifically to ask for this song.

Coupled with Xiang Nan's kung fu skills and being on the show to promote, there is definitely no shortage of talent and hot spots, and it will definitely be a lot to watch.



But to Xiang Nan's dismay, Raymond White only focused on interviewing Brooke Shields and ignored him sitting beside him. He didn't give him a single question and didn't give him the right to speak at all.

Even a few times, Brooke Shields tried to bring the topic to Xiang Nan, but he always interrupted her.

Seeing that the twenty-minute interview was coming to an end, Xiang Nan finally understood in his heart, "This old boy doesn't want to interview me at all."

Although he knew that his reputation was indeed inferior to that of Brooke Shields, he felt resentful because he favored one over the other.

"Fuck, after I become a superstar, if you ask me to appear on your show, I won't even get it." He thought to himself.

"Brooke, are you and Charles in love?" Raymond White asked with a smile.

"Actually, no, everyone has misunderstood. We are just good friends." Brooke Shields waved her hand and said.

"So that's it." Raymond White said with a smile, "It seems that we American boys don't have to be heartbroken."

Hearing this sentence, the audience cheered.

Although the scandal between Xiang Nan and Brooke Shields has been supported by some fans, most Americans are still opposed to this relationship.

After all, Xiang Nan is of Chinese descent, and Brooke Shields is known as the eighth wonder of the world and the most beautiful girl in the United States. If Xiang Nan pursues her, she will really be like a flower stuck in cow dung.

Xiang Nan sat on the bench all night and was already very angry. Now he heard the cheers from the audience again. Although he tried his best to keep smiling, he couldn't help cursing in his heart, "Fuck, you actually look down on me. Wait."

Look, I will soak up all your goddesses, leaving you red necks to just stare~"
