This director only makes bad movies

If it were made in China, such a spoof of the founding president, even if it was released, the script would not be registered, and it would definitely be shot by 404 if it was produced, and it would be impossible to pass the review.

But in the United States, these are not problems.

Americans have no psychological burden for pranking celebrities, and such movies can be released even if they are made.

There are even some Americans who particularly like this type of spoof movies.

Xu Nan had a hunch that the box office of this movie would not be low. At the very least, it would be guaranteed to make money.

If nothing else happens, this series of movies will become a cash cow for Nanhai Film and Television, just like the Avengers series.

When the movie becomes popular, Tesla, the storm demon, Newton, the apple warrior, and Edison, the light wizard, can all be arranged and filmed continuously.

The United States does have an advantage in this regard, and China is far behind it.

The script has been finalized, and the next step is to prepare and select actors.

You don’t need to think about the protagonist, Paris Hilton. Letting this fair and beautiful person play the leading role is naturally a gimmick and extremely convenient, not to mention that the protagonist is Washington, the founding president of the United States.

The sexual transformation of Washington is exciting just thinking about it.

The founding president turned out to be a beautiful girl. How could American audiences resist this divine temptation?

As for whether Americans can accept it, Xu Nan thinks it shouldn't be a problem. Americans have always been very tolerant in this regard.

As for other roles, they also need to be chosen carefully.

This time it's not a copycat, but an original spoof.

The spoof film's scenery is poor and the actors are bad. The audience can actually tolerate it, but there is a limit. At least it cannot be so bad that it can't be watched.

In this regard, Xu Nan has rich experience and knows how to grasp this scale.

He plans to spend $3 million on the project, including $1 million for filming and $2 million for marketing.

As long as the first movie lays a sufficient foundation, subsequent movies can continue to make money.

To take a step back, even if it fails, it will only lose three million US dollars at most, and Xu Nan can afford the loss.

Moreover, the probability of this movie losing money is very small. With the gimmick of Paris Hilton and the work of a famous director, even a casual life documentary can make money, let alone such a novel and funny spoof. Filmed.

Xu Nan's usual producer George is currently preparing a new movie. Because this is the first time he is preparing a movie independently, he is very cautious and hopes to do the best in all preparations. He does not have time to make a movie with Xu Nan.

So Xu Nan picked a new person from the company, named Avi Arad, to be his producer.

This Avi is also an old man in the company and has rich work experience. In addition, all the employees in the company have experience. Everyone joined forces and quickly completed the preliminary preparations.

Although the cost of this movie is higher than the previous movies produced by the company, it is still much easier to prepare than a large-scale production.

After the preliminary preparations are completed, the next step is casting.

The protagonist has been decided, and that is Paris Hilton. As for the other characters, we have to choose them carefully this time and not be as perfunctory as before.

Strictly speaking, when making movies in the past, Xu Nan's casting was not perfunctory, and the actors in it were all very capable.

Because there are so many actors in Hollywood, countless people come here to pursue their dreams, but the opportunities here are too few. Many actors waste years and countless castings, and it is difficult to find a chance to appear.

Although Xu Nan's films are copycat films, they are still theatrical films and have a certain degree of popularity. They are a piece of cake for actors who are struggling to find opportunities.

Therefore, every time a movie is cast, even though the casting time is short, the actors selected are quite strong.

In this casting selection, Xu Nan decided to give priority to actors who have worked with him before for the main roles.

On the one hand, they have good abilities, and on the other hand, they have experience working with Nanhai Film and Television, so their cooperation will be more tacit.

The other characters weren't a big deal; the key was convincing Paris Hilton that she was the heart of the film.

Xu Nan had only reached an agreement with her before, and whether Paris Hilton would still agree to it is unknown.

But even if Paris Hilton doesn't star, it doesn't matter. It's just that the movie promotion lacks some gimmicks. Xu Nan is still sure to make money from this movie.

Of course, if you can convince Paris Hilton to star, you still have to try your best to convince her to star. She is super white, rich and beautiful, and is very valuable to the movie.

In order to convince Paris, Xu Nan specially polished the script and found an American with good writing skills to write a literary script, which Paris could understand.

The contents of professional scripts are mainly scenes and character dialogues and actions, which are not incomprehensible to professionals. Literary scripts are mainly written about plots and are specially designed for laymen to read.

Paris Hilton came to Nanhai Film and Television. After seeing the script, she was quickly immersed in it, looking a little surprised and a little confused.

"Director Xu Nan, is this the movie you asked me to star in? Playing Washington?"

"This will get you scolded."

Xu Nan smiled: "Miss Hilton"

Paris Hilton immediately said: "You can just call me by my first name."

Xu Nan nodded: "Okay Miss Paris, I admit that the characters in this movie are very subversive and challenge some people's common sense. Will they be scolded?"

"But this is a good thing for you. Any celebrity who is slightly famous in Hollywood will be scolded by others. A star is not afraid of being scolded. He is afraid that there will be no one to scold him."

"This is a typical American spoof movie. I am sure that through marketing, I will make this movie a big hit and at the same time make you famous and become a superstar."

"Really?" Paris asked. She really wanted to be famous, and it had almost become her obsession.

"Of course." Xu Nan nodded seriously: "Remember the actress who played Lucy in "Titanic 2" before? She is very famous now, and in China, I made a girl with no reputation become a front-line star. Star, and later starred in a $150 million production."

"You should know that China's economy is not as developed as that of the United States. A large-scale production of 150 million US dollars is the most expensive movie ever made in China. A person who was an ordinary girl a year ago made a movie with me. , directly become the heroine of a large-scale production worth 150 million US dollars, do you know what this concept is?"

"So please believe me, with so many examples in front of me, what else do you have to doubt."
