Chapter 113 Lan Kui Shi Shi, an unexpected surprise

"Is this...given to me?"

Looking at the exquisite and beautiful Cartier lucky charm necklace in her hand, Liu Shishi's eyes were full of surprise.

Cartier's jewelry is very famous and is known as "the emperor's jeweler, the jeweler's emperor".

Zhou Yutang raised the price several times that night, and even outbid several actresses. The necklace he bought for 330,000 yuan was a Cartier limited edition. It was also inlaid with a diamond, exuding a sparkling brilliance, which immediately attracted Liu. Shi Shi’s gaze.

MUA!

Liu Shishi took the initiative to kiss Zhou Yutang on the cheek, and Zhou Yutang put it on for her with a smile.

She couldn't wait to run to the mirror and look at herself. She felt beautiful, but she muttered: "I think it would be most suitable with a white skirt, but it looks really good."

"As long as you wear it, it will look good no matter what you wear it with."

Zhou Yutang didn't raise his eyes, just complimented casually, and then replied to Wen Muye's message to communicate with him about the filming progress.

He is the producer of "Latent", but he has too many things on his hands. He has to practice singing for the Olympics, and he also has to start working out and doing special training for the movie.

There is no way to watch from the crew of "Latent". Fortunately, the filming team has matured, with the highly respected teacher Jiang Wei in charge, and Wen Muye is also a useful talent. The filming of "Latent" is progressing smoothly and is expected to be completed by the end of July. Finished successfully.

"You are so good to me, I also have a gift to give you."

Liu Shishi looked pretty in front of the mirror for a long time, and finally threw herself into Zhou Yutang's arms.

"What did you say?"

Zhou Yutang had just finished replying to Wen Muye's message, but he didn't even react.

"If you don't want it, forget it."

Liu Shishi said coyly, with a blush on her crystal white ears.

"What kind of gift is it that makes it so mysterious?"

Zhou Yutang also became a little interested.

Liu Shishi came over and whispered a few words.

"Really brought it?"

"Yes, I brought them all, in the box."

"Then I want Lan Kui"

Zhou Yutang sat up excitedly.

…

Lan Kui's skirt was thrown on the sofa aside.

After the artistic exchange.

Liu Shishi leaned in Zhou Yutang's arms and chatted with Zhou Yutang enthusiastically about studying at the Magic City Theater.

In fact, Zhou Yutang had contacted the female professor who taught her several times and had a rough idea of ​​Liu Shishi's situation.

The basic acting performance has improved to some extent, but compared to those talented players, it is indeed far behind.

To say that Zhou Yutang and Deng Chao are quite destined, they turned on the TV and Deng Chao's "The Difficult Love of Diamond Kings" was playing.

Zhou Yutang’s schoolmate Che Xiao is the heroine.

I have to say that at this time, Senior Che Xiao was really a rare queen-type beauty in the industry, with an excellent temperament. No wonder the coal boss liked her.

"By the way, Shi Shi, there will be a movie in two months, and you will make a guest appearance."

Zhou Yutang suddenly remembered the wife who lived in the uncle's memory in the movie "The Lonely Agent". This role just suited Liu Shishi to make a cameo.

Shi Shi's gentle temperament really makes her look like a good wife and mother.

Liu Shi and Shi Qingli had some surprise on their faces: "Do you really want me to act?"

Zhou Yutang nodded, "Well, you are very suitable for this role. You don't have many roles. The filming will probably start in September. Then you can ask Mr. Cai to reserve a schedule."

Concern was written on Liu Shishi's face: "Don't you want to sing at the Olympics? You also have to prepare a new play. Have you been very hard lately?"

"Fortunately, I found Teacher Yu Chenghui through some connections. I have to go for special training in two days. After the Olympics, I have to go to Hong Kong."

Zhou Yutang hugged Liu Shishi.

The most important thing in this drama is the male lead.

Not only does he have to be handsome, he also has an explosive figure, and it also tests his acting skills.

To perform the feeling of bursting out from hysterical despair like a beast.

This is actually a big challenge for Zhou Yutang.

Liu Shishi reached out and poked Zhou Yutang's eight-pack abs and muttered: "You have abs, they are so hard. Do you still need to practice like this?"

"I have a harder spot."

"What.!?"

Liu Shishi was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses, a touch of rouge suddenly flashed across his beautiful face.

"I'm talking tough."

"Watch TV and don't make trouble."

After slapping Zhou Yutang's dishonest hand away, Liu Shishi picked up the phone and said, "Tangtang called me."

Tang Yan's tone on the phone was filled with uncontrollable envy: "Shi Shi, Armani has officially announced that your family Zhou Yutang will be the brand spokesperson. What kind of fairy status is this?"

This is Armanier, which is a top luxury brand!

The brand spokesperson was directly airborne. Among the entire new generation of domestic entertainment, apart from Zhou Yutang, Liu Yifei is probably the only one.

"Yeah, I saw it."

Liu Shishi leaned against Zhou Yutang and smiled sweetly: "I'm with him now. Do you want to say hello to him?"

"."

Tang Yan on the other side of the phone was silent for a few seconds. She immediately figured out the situation and took the initiative to talk: "Yu Tang, congratulations. I heard that you collaborated on a film project with China Film Group?"

There really is no airtight wall in the entertainment industry.

Even Tang Yan knows about it, which proves that the news of Zhou Yutang's new film project with China Film Group has completely spread.

Zhou Yutang politely replied: "Yes, it is still under preparation."

"Oh, do you want to adjust the filming plan for the second and third seasons of "Classmates"?"

"No need to adjust, just proceed as originally planned. It will start airing immediately and you can go on variety shows again."

Zhou Yutang's Jiangdong Studio now has two stable shooting teams.

Lin Yufen has rich experience. She should be able to handle the filming of seasons 2 and 3 of "Welcome to School Together" without any problems.

The project "Lonely Agent" allowed Wen Muye to follow him as an assistant director, and it was also time to give him some experience in shooting for a large-scale production crew.

After chatting for a while about the upcoming "Classmates", the phone was handed back to Liu Shishi, who had a lively chat with Tang Yan.

Tang Yan suddenly asked: "Shi Shi, did you and Yang Mi have a fight? I haven't seen you talking to each other in the group recently?"

Liu Shishi hesitated and said, "Well, that's not it. It's mainly because the company has conflicts with her."

"Is it because Mr. Cai didn't sign Yang Mi?"

Tang Yan suddenly said.

"I don't know either."

After a while, Liu Shishi hung up the phone with Tang Yan, leaned against Zhou Yutang and asked, "Yu Tang, what do you think I should do?"

On one side is Sister K, who treats her well, and on the other side is her best friend.

In Shi Shi's heart, he was actually very confused.

However, she also has Zhou Yutang, who is mature and reliable. When she encounters something now, the first thing she thinks of is to ask him.

"This is none of your business, just treat it with a normal attitude."

The trailer of "Together" was playing on the TV. Zhou Yutang turned his eyes and rested his chin on Shi Shi's forehead: "This is a problem between Tangren Company and Yang Mi. They are both adults and they have to do things." You need to take responsibility for your actions."

He also knew the general outline of the matter.

At the beginning, "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" was the most important project of Tangren Film and Television. Cai Yinong gave the heroine of this project to Yang Mi, with the intention of signing her to further strengthen the strength of Tangren Film and Television.

In the end, Yang Mi ate this piece of cake and traveled to Europe with Tangren Film and Television. However, her attitude was still ambiguous. Later, she had a conflict with Tangren Film and Television because of the game endorsement.

Cai Yinong is also a human spirit, and he came to his senses instantly.

Because this drama became a hit, they had so many options in front of them that they didn’t even consider signing a contract with Tang Ren.

In the final analysis, the Tang people were still too weak and could not bring much leverage.

Zhou Yutang always felt that Yang Mi was similar to himself in some ways.

This is also a woman who is ambitious and wants to climb up.

……………………

It has been more than half a month since the college entrance examination.

Some are happy and some are sad.

Wang Yiran is probably one of them.

Her high school grades were not very satisfactory. After several mock exams, her score was only enough to pass the third level.

But in the end, after fighting against the odds, Wang Yiran suddenly got admitted to Communication University of Zhejiang Province. Although it was not 211, it was still a very famous university.

Wang Yiran was praised by her parents and relatives for this.

The most important thing is the feeling of being freed from the shackles.

So happy to take off!

Wang Yiran first went out to play in a nearby city for a few days with her best female classmates. After having fun, she then bought a new mobile phone and a new computer.

There's still some time before registration for the start of school, so let's watch some TV shows at home.

I have devoted all my energy for the college entrance examination for a year and saved a lot of dramas that I have not watched. Now it is time to enjoy them twice as much!

That night, Wang Yiran accidentally saw the theme song played in the TV series, and Wang Yiran suddenly became interested.

"This song is good. Is the author Zhou Yutang?"

When she saw the name, she became interested. She lay on her side on the sofa and continued watching. Soon the TV series started to air: ""Welcome to School Together"? It looks like a youth campus drama."

"The picture feels very comfortable. It is a script written by Zhou Yutang. It seems to be a story about college life."

"Hey, isn't this Zhang Ruojun, Zhou Yutang's good buddy? This time he won't play the warm guy. He seems to be a scumbag. His acting skills are really good."

Wang Yiran tore open a pack of original Lay's potato chips and looked at them while eating.

The plot develops slowly and outlines the life of ordinary college students at the beginning of school.

She saw Lu Qiaochuan, played by Zhu Yilong, sitting speechlessly in a taxi. He hadn't said a word since he got in the taxi, but the taxi driver kept chatting with him. Just because he looked mature, she misunderstood him. He is a university teacher

"Zhu Yilong is gentle and handsome. This university is so interesting. I won't encounter such a chatty driver uncle when I was in school, right?"

Wang Yiran couldn't help but chuckle.

"The painting style is completely different from Zhou Yutang's "Want to See You" and "Those Years"."

Seeing this, Wang Yiran could not be said to be attracted. She just felt that the novel subject matter, coupled with her curiosity about the university and the reputation of Zhou Yutang's production supported her to continue reading.

Soon, the two episodes were released that night.

After watching these two episodes, Wang Yiran hugged the bear as a pillow on the sofa and her mask burst from laughter.

"Lu Qiaochuan's way of picking up conversations is so embarrassing."

"Zhong Bai played by Yang Mi is so domineering, and Lin Luoxue played by Tang Yan has such long legs, both of them are so beautiful."

"Is the boys' dormitory so fun? It's so funny. Zhou Yutang, please pay for my facial mask! Who played Bi Shisan, a top student with facial paralysis? He's pretty handsome too."

This is a novel experience that I have never had before.

In this ensemble youth drama, there are no rich second generation or ugly duckling heroines.

Ren Yifan, a scumbag with a warm smile, Lu Qiaochuan who often gets into trouble, tomboy Zhong Bai, bright and beautiful Lin Luoxue, Bi Shisan, a top student with facial paralysis, Xiao Haiyang, a cheerful academic scumbag, Yu Hao, a gossipy and mean showman, who likes to save money With the money-making Gu Yixin, the gentle, beautiful and kind-hearted Li Shuci

But every character who appeared left a deep impression on Wang Yiran.

There are endless joke-like conversations between the characters, which are humorous yet natural. The whole story advances very slowly, but the pace is very comfortable for viewers.

It was as if the real story that happened on campus was unfolding before my eyes.

Wang Yiran finished watching two episodes and shared them with her best friends.

"Xiaoyun, watch "Crossing the Window Together", a new drama written by Zhou Yutang, it's really good."

"Huihui, I highly recommend a good drama. What, you just wanted to recommend it to me?"

"Feifei, I recommend it. Have you read it too?"

The next few days.

Wang Yiran, like many of her friends and classmates, has become a loyal audience of "Staying Together".

As the plot progressed, she was often amused by the jokes in it, and even her mother was curious about what her daughter was laughing at.

I heard it was a college TV series, so I sat down and watched it with her daughter for a while.

Then.

Goose goose goose goose!

What’s funny is that the mother and daughter both laughed and made pig noises at the same time.

"This TV series is good, there are no messy people."

Mother Wang nodded and commented.

As a glorious housewife, she has the power of the remote control at home. She has watched many TV series. She usually likes to watch TV series with realistic themes such as "Golden Wedding", but for the first time, she is also interested in the TV series "Together". The main reason is that she feels that the college life presented in the play is very real, and she wants to understand her daughter's college life from it.

Wang Yiran was also gradually attracted by the plot.

A very novel feeling.

It turns out that the protagonists of youth school dramas can be imperfect. Sometimes when they see them acting stupid, Wang Yiran is so angry that she wants to rush into the screen, hold them down and beat them.

Ordinary and real youth can also be wanton and public.

This is the only theme of this youth campus drama, and this theme also ushered in its first sublimation during the military training part.

Wang Yiran saw the military training end. The short, extremely strict instructor said goodbye to the students and suddenly hummed the song "Les Misérables" in front of the car in a low voice just before the car drove away. Choked.

Everyone in the car followed the instructor and sang loudly.

Wang Yiran's eyes turned red.

Then when she saw several members of the protagonist group ruthlessly killing Lin Luoxuefu's second-generation boyfriend, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.

She was happy or unhappy because of what happened to the protagonists, and suddenly she was looking forward to her own college life.

At the end of tonight's episode, Wang Yiran picked up her phone and called her good sister Huihui, who applied for the same university as herself.

Talk about the plot, talk about university, and talk about the future.

Now "Staying Together" has become a topic that will definitely be mentioned when chatting with their friends. Sharing the plot trends in the play is also a way for them to enhance their relationship.

The story of Lu Qiaochuan and Ren Yifan is still going on.

There will also be a wonderful college life for Wang Yiran.

……………………

"Yu Tang, the ratings of "Classmates" have finally gone up."

Li Shuang hurried into Zhou Yutang's office with a look of relief on his face.

"Sister Shuang, calm down."

Zhou Yutang took the report handed over by Sister Shuang and joked with a smile.

"Although it's okay, it's a lot worse than "Want to See You"."

Li Shuang shook his head with a little regret and couldn't stop laughing.

It’s true that after working with Zhou Yutang for a long time, my own vision has improved a lot.

The ratings of "Stay Together" are not a big hit. It is not a star at the moment. It is only broadcast in regions. The ratings of the regional premiere are not high, but it is slowly showing an upward trend. More than half of the TV series has been broadcast, and the average regional ratings have been It reached 4.4, and the highest ratings for a single episode were 6.8.

Within seven days, the TV series ranked among the top three in the province in terms of ratings for the same period.

"not bad."

Zhou Yutang put down the ratings report and nodded slightly.

To be honest, his original intention of writing this youth campus script was just to reward himself with a sentimental work after making a hit drama.

Due to its subject matter, "Classmates" has an obvious upper limit on ratings, and it will definitely not be as good as some of his hit dramas.

But he didn't expect it to be an unexpected surprise.

There are probably several reasons.

On the one hand, Zhou Yutang's super popularity has had a certain publicity effect. Now everyone knows that the products produced by Jiangdong Film and Television Culture must be high-quality.

On the other hand, the two heroines of this drama, Yang Mi and Tang Yan, are currently very popular, and their fan base will naturally support the TV series starring their idols.

Furthermore, this sentimental youth campus drama has a novel theme and the quality is indeed above the standard.

"Yu Tang, this drama has received a very good response from the student community, and the reviews online are also very high."

"Yeah?"

Zhou Yutang put on his vest skillfully and surfed the Internet, activating the secret observation mode:

"This is the first time I know that campus youth dramas can still be filmed this way."

"High school is tight, college is loose. This drama reminds me of my own college life. It's a pity that I can't go back. Let's cherish college life."

"I was just a sophomore, and I cried when I saw the end of military training. I was very touched."

"Mimi is the best, Zhong Bai is the most beautiful!"

"Is there anyone who likes the scumbag Ren Yifan as much as I do? I seem to be scumbag by him."

"Tang Yan's legs, no need to explain anymore, they are so smooth."

"Doesn't anyone like Bi Shisan? Although he is poor, he has backbone. Lu Qiaochuan is also a good squad leader. I cried when he bought Bi Shisan dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage in the cafeteria."

"I unilaterally declare that Zhou Yutang is the god of youth dramas. He understands youth so well."

Occasionally there will be a few negative reviews, but they are quickly drowned out by the positive ones.

Zhou Yutang closed the webpage, feeling quite satisfied.

This emotional work earned him more than 10 million in the first season, and it received rave reviews, further building up the golden brand of Kodong Studio.

What kind of bike do you want?

"Sister Shuang, have you sent money to Yu Feihong's crew?"

"Already called."

Li Shuang joked: "You are really generous."

"I'm lending it to her, and I'll have to pay interest back in the future."

Zhou Yutang looked calm.

Refunds from last year's hit dramas have been received one after another, and the company has also received the first payment from "Those Years".

Now excluding the investment in "The Lonely Agent", the studio still has more than 50 million in its account.

Zhou Yutang knew that Yu Feihong was having difficulty with funds for filming and had even mortgaged her house and car, so he sent her 5 million to make up for the funding gap.

Ignoring Li Shuang's teasing, he continued to give orders: "Sister Shuang, let Lin Yufen prepare to start filming the second and third seasons. It will be the same as the original cast. Give the main actors Yang Mi and Tang Yan a salary increase."

Li Shuang nodded: "Okay, I'll do it. Are you going to rehearse?"

"I just rehearsed yesterday, and I'm going to meet Teacher Yu today."

What Zhou Yutang wants to see is teacher Yu Chenghui.

Yu Chenghui is different from those martial arts masters who can be slapped five times a second on the Internet.

That's a really powerful person.

He was born in Shandong Province. He has been practicing martial arts for more than ten years as a young man. He has won the championship in martial arts competitions and even created his own drunken sword, which is famous in the martial arts world.

Later, by chance, he entered the film and television industry and participated in "Shaolin Temple", which made Kung Fu Emperor Li Liangjie famous. The Yellow River Hero of the last century was also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Zhou Yutang brought two bottles of Maotai to the door.

An old man and a young man had a delicious meal of peanuts and braised vegetables.

Teacher Yu usually doesn't talk much, but after drinking, he became more relaxed.

It can be seen that he also has a good impression of Zhou Yutang, a young man who is very famous but knows good etiquette, and he arranges for him with great care.

"Lao Yu, do you want to tie a sandbag?"

"right."

"Teacher Yu, I am filming, not practicing martial arts."

Zhou Yutang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and Lao Yu shook his head: "I have also filmed movies. If you want to make the film look like a master, you'd better believe that you are a master first."

"Is there any other way to say this?"

"Why not? I was filming Shaolin Temple with Jet Li back then."

Zhou Yutang listened with great interest to Yu Lao's stories about the past, and occasionally exchanged a few words.

What Mr. Yu said does make some sense.

Although the effects can be achieved through post-production editing, the shape and temperament revealed must also be convincing.

"I read your request. This play should pursue an explosive feeling. The most important thing is speed."

Yu Chenghui analyzed: "In an action movie, speed and the power of strikes are very important. I suggest you bring sandbags with you for several months, preferably iron sand. The effect is very good."

"."

"What expression are you looking at? This is a traditional method of light kung fu and heavy training. Tie a sandbag to the calf above the ankle. After tying it, don't take it off easily within a few months. You can only remove it temporarily for a while when taking a bath. After you take a shower, tie them up again before you can do anything else."

Mr. Yu stroked his beard with a nostalgic look: "When I was young, I could carry a sandbag weighing more than thirty kilograms, and I could still jump, jump, somersault, and dance with a sword. At critical moments, I could remove these heavy objects. But the body is as light as a swallow."

Seeing Zhou Yutang's disbelief, Mr. Yu put down his wine bowl, slapped the table and said, "Xiao Zhou, let's make a sign, you come and beat me."

"Forget it, Mr. Yu."

Zhou Yutang's expression twitched. He was really afraid that he would accidentally send Mr. Yu to the hospital, which would be great fun.

"Come!"

However, Mr. Yu couldn't help but stood up suddenly.

ten minutes later.

Zhou Yutang was convinced.

Despite Yu Lao's age, he was really fast and ordinary people couldn't touch him.

Moreover, Yu Lao's shots were very powerful, which was still several points better than that of a strong adult man.

"Xiao Zhou, have you practiced before?"

Mr. Yu also flexed his muscles and looked at Zhou Yutang with some fear.

"No, I just go to the gym to exercise. How about it, Mr. Yu, do I have the potential to become a master?"

Zhou Yutang said slightly excitedly.

"The understanding is good, you can have it."

Mr. Yu nodded: "But don't be proud. My physical talent back then was not inferior to yours! If you can abandon worldly chores and concentrate on martial arts wholeheartedly, you can become famous in twenty years."

"Forget it."

Zhou Yutang shook his head repeatedly.

He only practices martial arts for the movie, so that the actions in the movie can be more beautiful and fit the character's image as a master.

But if he were to give up everything to concentrate on practicing martial arts, that would definitely not be possible.

"I underestimated you before. I didn't expect that your physical talent is so good. Not only do you need to tie a sandbag, I will teach you another way to exercise your waist muscles. The strength of your waist is the source of your whole body's strength. If you can do it, The waist and horse become one, this skill is also very beneficial to the kidneys."

"Lao Yu, I want to learn this."
