Chapter 161 The clarion call for the rise of Jiangdong Dynasty, half of the entertainment industry i
Zhou Yutang has always had a dream in his heart.
I have been fighting wits and courage with Ms. Wang Fengqin since I was a child, and I have read the complete set of novels by Gu Long and Jin Yong collected by Lao Zhou.
I just made a phenomenal blockbuster, and this "Jian Yu Jiang Hu" is to reward my feelings.
However, for "Jian Yu Jiang Hu", he only marked a few unreasonable points and prepared to send the script to the screenwriting department.
The studio's screenwriting team now works very well together. With them brainstorming and polishing the script together, they can make this story more reasonable and interesting.
As for Zhou Yutang himself.
I really don’t plan to play the male lead myself.
It’s not that the heroine’s brilliance outweighs that of the hero, but because he is too busy.
As far as the current schedule is concerned, it has been scheduled until October in the second half of the year. The most important thing at hand, apart from the implementation of the company building, is the "My Love from the Star".
This play was finished this week when Yu Tang was last in South Korea.
Later, a series of proper arrangements were made, and now the time is almost ripe to enter the preparatory stage.
This drama is great because of its novel subject matter and its plot is actually very simple.
A romantic love story between a beautiful female star with a realistic personality and a cold and ascetic alien male god.
As far as this drama is concerned, stylists, makeup artists, and behind-the-scenes staff such as art, lighting, and scenery are very important.
The current service methods in China still cannot achieve the expected results in Zhou Yutang's heart, so for this project, he sent people to South Korea to communicate for several months. Several plans were made within the company, and finally Zhou Yutang gave his own plan. After discussing their opinions, the team behind the scenes summed up the most suitable solution.
Positioning is quality.
And it is a top-notch product in the film and television industry.
I have held several meetings within the company, and all of them were very generous in terms of costumes, makeup, props and scene decoration.
"Yu Tang, you are really playing big this time. I will do as you ask. At the very least, you will invest more than 60 million, or even more."
"Sister Shuang, believe me, money is not an issue. Let the commercial advertising department contact you for advertising. As long as you make it, you will definitely make money without losing money."
Zhou Yutang hung out with Senior Brother Liu Jiang for a while and learned a lot of sexy tricks from him.
When "Let's Get Married" hadn't started filming yet, the direct revenue from pure advertising was tens of millions, and the cost was recovered immediately. Later, the first and second rounds of selling TV stations were pure and steady profits.
This "My Love from the Star" is a top-notch luxury lineup of Zhou Yutang + Liu Yifei, and some of it is paid for by advertisers.
There’s no need to go crazy with placements, just pick a few reliable ads and you’ll earn eight figures directly.
Li Shuang looked at Zhou Yutang's confident look, nodded slightly, and continued to report: "The box office revenue of "The Lonely Agent" in the mainland is 528 million. According to the share, and after deducting the publicity costs, the box office share revenue is about 210 million."
"After counting the revenue sharing in Xiangjiang and Bend provinces, 33 million was recorded. In Thailand and South Korea, after deducting local publicity and distribution, the revenue was about 78 million."
"The total revenue share of "Agent" is at least 320 million yuan. Excluding the shares of China Film, Enlight, and Emperor, the company has recorded at least 128 million yuan."
"The DVD audio and video rights are still being negotiated. Neon sent an email asking about the price of the remake rights."
"Sell it if it suits you. The remake cannot be better than the original."
Zhou Yutang sank into the boss's chair and rubbed his forehead with two fingers.
"Those Years" was remade in South Korea. The combination of the popular king Rain and Han Hyo-joo there only had 980,000 moviegoers and a box office of tens of millions. In total, the investors still lost money.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Zhou Yutang. Anyway, he will make money steadily after selling the copyright.
The project "Agent" has made Zhou Yutang a lot of money. The most important thing is that the influence of Jiangdong Entertainment has once again increased.
While talking about something with Li Shuang, there was a gentle knock on the door, and then Mao Xiaoyu's head poked in.
"Boss, Qin Hao is waiting in the reception room."
"Here? Then come here first and I'll go see him."
Zhou Yutang took the initiative to stand up and push out the door, walked into the reception room, stretched out his hands to shake Qin Hao: "Brother Hao, welcome."
Qin Hao came over to let him audition for the role of the villain in "My Love from the Star".
The male and female protagonists of this drama have already been decided.
But in addition to the male and female protagonists, there is also a very important villain. The setting of the play is Cao Ziang, the eldest son of the Cao Group. On the surface, he appears to be a wealthy second-generation son who is enthusiastic about public welfare, personable, and talented in business. In fact, he is a perverted murderer with an extremely dark psychology.
Casting director Lin Liang found many people according to Zhou Yutang's request.
In the end, Zhou Yutang fell in love with Qin Hao.
Ask Li Shuang to send the script to Qin Hao and notify him to come over and audition.
Qin Hao graduated from Chinese Opera. When he first debuted, he participated in the literary film "Green Red" directed by Wang Xiaoshuai. Da Meiyuan also starred in that film. At that time, he entered the main competition of Cannes and was nominated for the Palme d'Or, which is a rare honor.
However, Qin Hao was at his peak when he debuted, and his development in the next few years was not smooth.
So not long after Jiangdong Film and Television sent the script, Qin Hao took the initiative to come to the door.
"Brother Hao, have you read the book?"
"seen it already."
Qin Hao glanced at Zhou Yutang and saw that he was leaning back slightly, his hand supporting his chin, and there was no expression on his handsome face.
"Tell me about your understanding and analysis of this character."
"First of all, on the surface, Cao Ziang is the rich second generation of a top group. Countless people envy his status, but his own thinking and psychological state, how should I put it, are a little different from ordinary people. I think His family environment since he was a child has determined his personal psychology, and he cannot accept the slightest disobedience from others. Moreover, because of his family background, there is no lower limit for the means of doing things."
"In addition, he is also a very good actor. He uses his graceful appearance to cover up the viciousness and ugliness in his heart. He is even so vicious that he can even get rid of his brothers. However, this is a very complex character, but At the same time, he deeply loves his wife.”
Zhou Yutang listened with great interest, and there was an assistant beside him who was taking notes.
The character in the script he created is dead, but from the perspective of a powerful actor, this person is alive.
An excellent actor has his own unique understanding of the character and can sometimes provide the screenwriter with many ideas.
Qin Hao has obviously done a lot of homework to further explore the story from the character of Cao Ziang.
Then Zhou Yutang asked Qin Hao to try out a scene.
It mainly reflects the duality of Mr. Cao in the play.
Qin Hao adjusted the buttons of his suit gracefully, and suddenly an evil smile appeared on his face.
Repeatedly and suddenly, he transformed from an upper-class young man into a perverted murderous demon.
The expression changes quite naturally. His face is as gentle as jade, but it is filled with a creepy evil intention!
Zhou Yutang's thick sword eyebrows were slightly raised, feeling Qin Hao's acting skills.
Those few subtle expression changes just now vividly showed a villain with deep heart and vicious methods.
"Mr. Zhou, do you think I have a chance?"
Qin Hao finished this part and looked at Zhou Yutang with a little expectancy.
Not only the actresses are staring at Zhou Yutang's scenes, but now there are many male actors in the industry who are competing for their roles.
Didn’t you see that Zhang Songwen went from being unknown to becoming famous in one fell swoop, until he won the Magnolia Emperor crown?
Zhou Yutang held him up with one hand!
"Brother Hao, you did a good job."
Zhou Yutang's expression twitched: "I don't have any problems here. I can ask your agent to sign the contract later. I will notify you if anything happens."
This guy's acting skills are really impeccable.
Graduated from Chinese Opera, has solid basic skills and is quite talented in acting.
I plunged headlong into the pool of literary films, until later I started to change my life for the sake of life, acting as I did.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou."
Qin Hao's attitude was even a little respectful.
"I'll bring the script back later. If you have any other questions, you can contact me directly at my personal number. I'm glad to be able to cooperate with you, Brother Hao."
After adding contact information, Zhou Yutang patted Qin Hao on the shoulder again.
"Sister Jia, is it almost time?"
Yang Mi looked in the mirror and checked her makeup left and right.
Finding that face bright and moving, she pursed her red lips and showed a satisfied smile.
Today is the day that Zhou Yutang's Jiangdong Film and Television Culture and Entertainment Company moved into a new company building, so she pushed out an announcement and prepared to celebrate on site.
"It said it was 12 noon over there. Have you said hello to Zhou Yutang?"
"I told you, he said you don't have to go there."
"Then you send a flower basket, as long as I get the idea. There will be an announcement in the afternoon." Zeng Jia muttered with a little resentment. With Yang Mi's current status, a commercial performance can cost hundreds of thousands, after deducting the company's share. , she can also make a lot of money as an agent.
"The announcement can be made later, but we are all friends and we have to support him."
The other side.
On Jingcheng Road.
Tang Yan's manager Ji Rujing was communicating about the schedule: "Tangtang, the second and third seasons of "Classmates" will be broadcast soon. Then Jiangdong Entertainment Company sent a notice that it is expected to start filming the final season of "Classmates" in July. After the filming of this film is completed, I still have two TV series offers, let’s take a look at them when the time comes.”
"Well, Sister Ji, you can make arrangements when the time comes." Tang Yan nodded.
"Now it seems that you made the right choice when you took on the series "Classmates". The youth film and television dramas produced by Zhou Yutang are really top-notch in the industry."
Agent Ji Rujing was also feeling emotional.
Tang Yan's acting skills were originally ridiculed by various groups. When the audience mentioned her, she was just a silly sweet lady. However, after she played the role of the seductive Green Tea Lin Luoxue, she became quite popular.
As "Classmates" aired, fans online praised her for opening up her acting career and putting her acting skills at the forefront among popular actresses.
The main reason is that the dramas produced by Zhou Yutang have very good ratings and reputation, and they are very popular.
The two were chatting casually in the car, and Tang Yan casually mentioned: "Sister Ji, what do you think the current housing prices in Beijing are like?"
"Since the second half of last year, there has been turmoil. The real estate industry has been reshuffled and many real estate companies have gone bankrupt."
"Didn't Yutang miss something when he bought this building that week?"
"You can't say that. A 9-story company building, no matter how cheap it is, costs nearly 100 million. And you have to consider that the real estate market is still unclear. What if the price of the building you buy drops? It costs tens of millions. How can ordinary people afford losses?”
Ji Rujing's experience was obviously more sophisticated, and his analysis was clear and logical. After hearing this, Tang Yan was secretly stunned.
She made a lot of money last year during the famous dividend period, but she had to spend nearly 100 million to buy a house and possibly suffer a loss of tens of millions. That was simply unthinkable.
Ji Rujing said with envy in his tone: "Zhou Yutang has such confidence. The domestic box office of "The Lonely Agent" alone is 528 million, and there is also income from overseas box office accounts. He has made a lot of money. For him, tens of millions is just Sprinkle some water."
……………………
Jiangdong Film and Television Culture Studio has become famous in the industry after "Want to See You".
After "Let's Get Married" and "Those Years", it has risen at an alarming rate.
"Classmate" established its reputation and became a classic college youth film and television drama series. "Insidious" and "The Lonely Agent" at the beginning of the year directly made Jiangdong Film and Television Culture Studio the limelight.
After the studio officially transformed into an entertainment company at the beginning of this year, Zhou Yutang also began to officially enter another circle with another identity.
June 18th.
On an auspicious day, it is appropriate to relocate.
East of Changhong Bridge.
Under a building with a total of 9 floors, there are staff checking for any omissions from time to time.
Today is the relocation day of Jiangdong Film and Television Culture and Entertainment Company.
"Yiming, it's a pleasure to work with you."
"Yu Tang, I would like to thank you for your understanding and consideration this time. We will have the opportunity to work together in the future."
"There must be a chance."
Zhang Yiming and Zhou Yutang shook hands and hugged each other under the building, patting each other's shoulders familiarly.
After this cooperation, the friendship between the two people has undoubtedly deepened a lot.
The two of them watched downstairs for a while, then walked into the building side by side. While waiting for the elevator, Zhang Yiming asked: "Yu Tang, the office building is still a bit empty now. Are you considering renting it out?"
Zhang Yiming is very business-savvy.
Jiangdong Film and Television Culture has just transformed from a studio into an entertainment company, and it can be said to be in the early stage of development.
Naturally, such a large office building is not needed.
And his Jiujiufang also includes the subletting business.
Zhou Yutang chuckled and said: "There are not so many floors yet. Once settled, I will sublet some of them depending on the situation. This matter will trouble you."
To be an entertainment company, you have to remove all the basic departments that maintain the normal operation of the company.
In his plan, he will build an editing room, a filming room, a screening room, a recording studio, etc. in the future, which must be slowly improved step by step.
"The sublease agency fees are free of charge. This is my celebration of Jiangdong Entertainment's move."
It's easy for smart people to communicate. Zhang Yiming could also feel Zhou Yutang's sincerity towards him and took the initiative to show kindness.
At this time, the sign of Jiangdong Film and Television Culture and Entertainment Co., Ltd. has been hung outside the building.
There were also many journalists with guns and cannons outside, guarding the downstairs of the company with eager eyes.
Since everyone is in the entertainment industry, interpersonal interactions are inevitable. Zhou Yutang also informed some friends in the industry that his company was relocating.
The weather in Beijing in June is hot.
Above the sky, the sun hung high, the asphalt road seemed to be burning, and the cicadas on the treetops on the roadside sang hoarsely and endlessly.
The reporters were also sweating profusely, but they were also professional enough, carrying equipment and squatting in the shade of the trees.
Finally at 12 noon.
The show begins.
A black nanny car parked in front of the company building.
Yang Mi, a popular young actress, wore a pure black tight-fitting T-shirt that just reached her waist and light blue denim shorts with a navel-baring design, which made the curves of her body eye-catching.
Click! Click!
The media reporters at the scene, who were originally a little sluggish due to the hot weather, immediately became energetic and quickly took out their equipment and started working.
The flashbulbs were shining wildly.
"Why is Yang Mi in such good shape?"
“It’s really beautiful!”
"I didn't expect that even Da Mimi would come."
Damimi seemed to be very satisfied with being the center of attention of countless media reporters at the scene. She took off the pair of GIVENCHY sunglasses that covered most of her cheeks, and waved to the media reporters with a smile on her delicate face.
"Yang Mi, are you here to participate in the relocation of the Jiangdong Entertainment Company building?"
"Yes, I heard that Yutang's company has moved to a new building. As a friend, I came here to celebrate and wish him success in his career."
Yang Mi responded to the media reporters.
However, the fiery scene here did not last long, and in the blink of an eye, another silver-white nanny car arrived.
leg!
A pair of long legs stepped out of the car door.
The peripheral vision of everyone's eyes was attracted by those delicate and enchanting long legs like a magnet.
Wearing a blue pleated dress full of design, it perfectly modified the curvy figure of a hot woman.
Tang Yan wore a pair of white high-heeled shoes, with strands of ribbons wrapped upwards, and the white ankles that highlighted her were as exquisite as works of art.
After getting off the car, Tang Yan gently brushed her long, straight black hair, her iconic sweet smile appeared on her lips, and she also accepted an interview with excited media reporters:
"Tang Yan, what is your relationship with Zhou Yutang?"
"We have been good friends since "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3". I happened to have an announcement in Beijing, so I came over to celebrate the relocation of his company. I wish him a prosperous business and abundant financial resources in the future."
Wow!
These two most popular actresses are here.
The media reporters at the scene gradually became excited.
Is there anything good to report about the company moving?
It also has to be a female celebrity. Seeing how popular it is, isn’t it the right thing to do?
Tang Yan and Yang Mi's eyes collided and they were slightly stunned when they saw each other.
Didn’t I say I wouldn’t come if I had something to do today? ?
"What a coincidence. Suddenly the schedule was delayed."
"Me too."
The two women smiled and nodded, walking together warmly, holding arms and talking and laughing, as close as sisters.
One complimented his best friend on how fashionable she looked today, and the other praised her best friend’s long legs for being so eye-catching.
However, before Yang Mi and Tang Yan had even exchanged a few words, another nanny car stopped, and there was an uproar downstairs, accompanied by excited screams and shouts from fans.
"Wow! Fan Binbin! Fan Binbin is here!"
"Why is she here too?"
"Didn't you say that Fan Xiaopang is secretly dating Zhou Yutang? Is this an official announcement?"
have to say.
Although Yang Mi and Tang Yan were both popular Xiaopang at this time, they were still slightly inferior to Fan Xiaopang, the top performer among the Four Danshuangbing.
Fan Xiaopang held a small diamond-encrusted bag in his hand and looked around. The media reporters' attention immediately shifted. Countless guns and short guns were aimed at this super popular and shining female star from different directions.
"Ms. Fan, are you here to celebrate the relocation of Jiangdong Entertainment Company to a new building today?"
"Haha, Yu Tang and I are very good friends. When his company moves to a new building, of course I will come to support him."
Today, Fan Xiaopang is wearing a rose-red dress, her skin seems to be white and glowing, her hair is exquisitely tied, and she is paired with metal earrings, a necklace, and a magnificent peony flower.
What is Dahuadan’s aura?
What is radiant light?
Fan Xiaopang was able to play Tang Yan and Yang Mi alone, and there was no pressure at all.
Seeing the forced smiles on the faces of Yang Mi and Tang Yan, the media reporters at the scene were extremely excited:
[Zhou Yutang, a romantic and talented man, has an "extraordinary" friendship with the immortal swordsman! 】
[Fan Xiaopang personally visited the site of Jiangdong Entertainment’s relocation to a new building, suspected to be the official Jiangdong proprietress? 】
[Zhou Yutang’s new love and old love compete for favor, and his coquettish ex-girlfriend is jealous! 】
Those with a sharp mind have already made up the headlines for tomorrow's entertainment news front page.
but.
In front of the Jiangdong Entertainment Company building, the beauties, big and small, competed for beauty, but they couldn't last long.
Immediately afterwards, more heavyweights arrived, and even these big and small beauties were eclipsed.
"Hold the grass! China Film Group Han Sanping!"
"Big dog brother with a galloping pony!"
"Guangguang CEO Wang Changtian and Vice President Li Xiaoping are here!"
"Boss King Huayi and Chen Guofu, the boss of the film and television department!"
Click! Click!
The flashbulbs shine like crazy.
Along with the buzzing discussion from everyone!
Big news!
Absolutely shocking news.
In fact, company relocation is a common situation in the circle. Generally speaking, if you are a close friend, sending a flower basket will be enough.
But I didn't expect that these big guys would come to celebrate in person.
The significance of this is extraordinary.
Faced with these big guys, Fan Xiaopang could still go up and say hello, while Yang Mi and Tang Yan stood beside them as humble as minions.
What about the little beauties in the industry?
In front of these big guys who have mastered the rules of the circle game, it is not worth mentioning.
And Cai Yinong, standing with this group of heavyweight guests, was also a little weak and helpless.
She flew to the capital for business and stopped by to celebrate Zhou Yutang's relocation. However, she felt like a shrimp among the sharks.
Everyone was a little confused.
The other side.
Aunt Liu, who was wearing a decent dress, could not help but reach out and rub her eyes.
She wondered if she was dazzled or if she was dreaming.
What a joke! ! !
Several of the six major domestic film and television companies came.
Half of the domestic entertainment companies are here.
It is no exaggeration to say that with just a few people stamping their feet, the entire entertainment venue would be shaken.
They all came to celebrate Zhou Yutang's company's move to a new building in person.
When did Zhou Yutang's status and connections become so strong?
Aunt Liu couldn't help but look at the building, looking for that heroic and upright figure. Her heart was filled with huge waves, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.
