Chapter 205 The girls’ reactions, surprises and surprises

"Sissi, do you know about this?"

Aunt Liu held a newspaper and asked her daughter with a surprised expression.

Liu Yifei, who had just finished talking to Zhou Yutang, smiled and said, "Mom, Xiao Zhou told me on the phone."

"it is true?"

Aunt Liu was a little stunned.

That's Jiahe.

A Hong Kong film and television giant that was extremely glorious in the 1990s.

No wonder Aunt Liu was so shocked when she heard that Zhou Yutang had taken over Jiahe.

In the era when she grew up, among the mainstream values, Xiangjiang was a symbol of foreign style and high-end.

Aunt Liu is inevitably affected by this kind of thinking.

"Um."

Liu Yifei nodded with a little arrogance: "It's true, Xiao Zhou will be back for a press conference soon, you can watch it then."

"What!? Did you just know that too?"

Listening to Liu Shishi's confused voice on the phone, Yang Mi asked a few more questions, and then she was convinced that she knew it was true.

"Mimi, what do you say?"

Zeng Jia asked with some concern.

Yang Mi put down her mobile phone, her heart was in turmoil, and she couldn't calm down for a long time: "Shi Shi seems to have just found out."

"Zhou Yutang is so deep in the city that he didn't even let out the slightest news beforehand. Not even the people next to him knew about it."

"It's normal. For such a big thing, the fewer people know about it, the better."

Yang Mi said with complicated thoughts.

She is still confused about her future after her contract expires. Zhou Yutang over there has become a capital boss, and the distance between everyone seems to be getting farther and farther.

Zeng Jia also sighed sincerely: "However, from today on, his identity will be different."

Although Jiahe is no longer the Xiangjiang film and television giant it was at its peak, it is a skinny camel bigger than a horse. After all, it is a listed company with a market value of more than 100 million.

After a pause, Zeng Jia said more urgently: "Mimi, when will he come back?"

"From what Liu Shishi said, it seems like it's just these two days."

"Then hurry up and ask, your contract is about to expire."

"Hello, Sister Shi Shi."

Liu Shishi, who had just returned to the company after the first round of movie promotion announcements, was vaguely aware that the attitude of people around him towards him seemed to have changed.

The assistant Taozi beside her complained softly: "Isn't this too realistic?"

Although Liu Shishi was also a popular actress in the past, in the final analysis she was also an artist in Tangren Film and Television.

The company managers all regard themselves as the boss, and at most regard her as an important employee.

But after Zhou Yutang first invested in Tangren and then became the majority shareholder of Jiahe, the faces of those who used to put on airs now have faintly flattering smiles on their faces.

Within Tangren Film and Television, the relationship between Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi is actually not a secret.

Liu Shishi said hello one by one, and then Cai Yinong pulled her into her office and asked with a complicated expression: "Shi Shi, what did he tell you?"

There are a lot of rumors going on outside right now, and it’s all there.

But only those closest to Zhou Yutang knew the inside story.

"I don't know either."

Liu Shishi blinked and said with an innocent expression, "Yu Tang will be back soon. You can ask him yourself then."

"More than 100 million yuan in cash, just throw it away. How can he be so rich?"

Cai Yinong couldn't help but be envious.

If Tangren Film and Television had so much money, how many TV series could it produce?

I pulled Liu Shishi and asked for a long time before letting her out. It happened that Hu Ge and Yuan Hong were both at the company.

When they saw Liu Shishi, they started to make noises.

"Sister Shi Shi, from now on you will be the landlady of Tang Dynasty."

"You're kidding, Sister Shi is the proprietress of a listed company."

"Lao Hu, Yuan Hong, please stop joking."

Liu Shishi's quiet little face showed a gentle smile: "When Yu Tang comes back, let's all get together."

She was also full of pride for Zhou Yutang's achievements.

After handling the matters in Xiangjiang, Zhou Yutang flew straight to the Magic City.

Just came out of the airport passage.

It was blocked by the surging crowd of media reporters.

"Mr. Zhou, it is rumored that you have an old grudge with Wu Kebo of Chengtian Culture. Is this an attempt to snipe his backdoor listing?"

"Mr. Zhou, are you ready to shift the focus of your business to Xiangjiang?"

"Mr. Zhou, how do you feel after taking over Jiahe?"

Zhou Yutang was originally a top player in domestic entertainment, but now he made such a big move in Xiangjiang, and immediately caused a huge sensation when he came back.

Countless long guns and short cannons were aimed at him from different directions.

However, he wore sunglasses and smiled, and walked away under the guidance of the bodyguard.

night.

A high-end hotel in Shanghai.

"Mr. Zhou."

"Mr. Zhou."

Seeing Zhou Yutang walk into the box reserved in advance, everyone in the room stood up.

"Everyone, take a seat."

Zhou Yu greeted: "Sorry, I have to deal with some personal matters and kept everyone waiting here for a long time."

"Mr. Zhou's matters are important."

Baldy Xu stood up holding his wine glass in a very social manner.

When Zhou Yutang came back this time, he first invited the crew and creative team to dinner to communicate and get familiar with each other.

Zhang Jin is the action director of the "Big Shot" crew, but he also had to participate in the promotion of "Sword Rain", so he came a little late.

The director of photography used this time is also Li Bingqiang, a senior fellow from Nortel who Zhou Yutang has worked with.

The costume designer is Song Xiaotao, who is also from Jiangdong Entertainment.

Bald Xu is truly a talent.

A few words, threading the needle, and the atmosphere became lively.

The launch conference of "Big Shot" was held as scheduled.

There were a lot of people attending this press conference.

Han Sanping of China Film Group, Ren Zhonglun of Shanghai Film Group, Wang Changtian, CEO of Guangwang, Vice President Li Xiaoping, Yang Shoucheng, boss of Yinghuang Group, Huo Wenxi, head of Yinghuang's Beijing branch, and other producers were all present.

Such a luxurious lineup stood for Zhou Yutang, which aroused the excitement of the media reporters present.

It hasn't started yet.

There was already a buzz of discussion in the audience.

We also specially invited Chen Chen, the hostess of Shanghai TV Station who has a good relationship with Zhou Yutang.

The bald Xu next to him was as bright as a lightbulb under the flashlights in the audience.

Others were also a little dizzy.

It’s not that I haven’t sobered up from yesterday’s wine.

But having been in the film and television industry for so long, I have experienced a lot of big scenes.

But the lineup for today's press conference for Zhou Yutang's new drama is really amazing. This shows the depth of his connections, and it also makes the bald man more determined to embrace the project.

Zhou Yutang was very calm about this.

"Lonely Agent" also attracted a lot of attention at that time, and there was also the gimmick of foreign superstar Tony Jaa.

This time there is only one more person, Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Group, and the others are all old acquaintances.

Zhou Yutang is undoubtedly the center of media interviews today.

"It can be seen that everyone is very enthusiastic. Don't be anxious if you ask questions, just come one by one."

As the female host of Shanghai TV Station, Chen Chen's professionalism is unquestionable. With her driving the atmosphere and maintaining order, the scene quickly calmed down.

After introducing the creative team, the media reporters who were invited to the scene pointed their long guns and short guns at Zhou Yutang:

"Mr. Zhou, what is the purpose of Jiangdong Entertainment's acquisition of Jiahe shares?"

"For the company's development needs, Jiahe is a company with great foundation and has deep relationships in the foreign film market. It can also bring a lot of resources to Jiangdong Entertainment."

"Mr. Zhou, someone could ask you what your next plans are after taking over Jiahe?"

"In the second half of this year, there will be a new movie "Anti-Drug", and the script has been completed. Everyone should pay attention to the upcoming filming of "Big Shot"."

"Mr. Zhou, how much do you expect the box office of "Big Shot" to be?"

"The box office is determined by the audience. It's hard to say now. I hope I won't disappoint everyone by then."

Today, Zhou Yutang no longer needs any gimmicks to attract attention.

Here he stands.

That’s why topics and traffic are full.

After briefly answering the questions, Zhou Yutang began to direct the exposure to the crew members.

Hu Jun, Xu Zheng and others also answered questions from the media, and Li Yao also received a lot of exposure.

The press conference is over.

Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Studio approached him, and his expression was a bit direct: "Yu Tang, the film you made with The Emperor counts as a film director."

"Let's do a cost budget first."

Zhou Yutang nodded slightly, agreeing.

To make a movie, you definitely need to raise funds. You can't pay all of it out of your own pocket. As long as your share remains unchanged, you can still share the costs.

Great people have said that you have to make a lot of friends, and Shanghai Film Group is still very influential.

"good."

Mr. Ren patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder with satisfaction: "If you have any difficulties shooting in the Magic City, just tell me."

According to seniority, Tian Ming has to call him uncle. Zhou Yutang and Tian Ming have a close relationship. Of course, they are also their own people. The Shanghai Film Group has succeeded in getting involved.

Orange Sky Culture.

Look at the news on the front page of the entertainment portal news about the press conference held by Yu Tang last week.

Wu Kebo's anger level was full and he threw the vase ornaments on his table to the ground, breaking into countless pieces.

He still felt uneasy.

Become a desktop cleaning master and push all the computer keyboards and documents on your desk to the floor.

Chengtian Culture has been planning for several years in order to be listed on the market. He has been in charge of the Jiahe acquisition plan for nearly a year.

Zou Wenhuai was already close to letting go, but he suddenly became ambiguous again last year.

The plan of Chengtian Culture's backdoor listing was delayed because of this. Now that I heard the news that Zhou Yutang had invested in Jiahe and became the major shareholder, I was furious.

Zou Wenhuai, an old immortal, would rather sell his stocks to a guy like Zhou Yutang than sell them to himself.

This is the crew of "Big Shot".

The scenes, props, and costumes had been adjusted. As soon as Zhou Yutang finished discussing the production schedule with producer Chen Xi, Tang Yan moved her long legs and came to him with a drink in her hand.

"Boss Zhou, drink some water."

"Thanks."

Zhou Yutang took the rock sugar snow pear: "And don't call me Boss Zhou."

Well, this drink is a bit too sweet.

After returning from Xiangjiang, Tang Yan's attitude toward him seemed to have changed a bit, and she sounded a little coquettish from time to time.

Zhou Yutang glanced at her calmly. The little fairy's eyes were soft and bright, as if they had hooks.

However, before he joined the group last night, he had an in-depth exchange with Liu Shishi, who had returned to the Magic City. He was still in the sage time and his immunity was very high.

Tang Yan said in a soft voice: "Yu Tang, my contract with Chengtian Culture will expire next year."

"Um?"

Zhou Yutang looked at Tang Yan while drinking a drink, and said casually: "There are still two years, that's still early. You and Shi Shi are about the same. She is half a year behind you. Don't you want to renew the contract?"

"I don't want to continue."

Tang Yan smiled and said, "How about I come and join you when the time comes?"

"Let's talk about it then"

"Hey, Yu Tang, are you going to attend the Academy Awards this month? I wish you a fruitful harvest then."

Chatting with beautiful women is undoubtedly pleasurable.

Zhou Yutang definitely didn’t mean to be lazy, but to train assistant director Wen Muye’s ability to be independent.

Suddenly I felt like I was on a collision course with Wu Kebo.

Having just cut off Chengtian's opportunity to go public, are they poaching her company's young stars again?

This is just a small episode in the life of the crew.

Logically speaking, Tang Yan, a guest actor with few roles, shouldn't join the cast so early. Fan Xiaopang, who is similar to her, is busy working on another drama, and it will take some time before he can join the cast.

Tang Yan's explanation was that she didn't have any film appointment notices in her hand, so she was just idle at home, so she might as well learn more by staying on the set.

She really wants to improve.

The crew members soon got used to the long-legged beauty Tang Yan accompanying Zhou Yutang.

After the filming of "Big Shot" started, it still followed the easy-to-difficult mode.

It starts with the scene of the bullied honest man Guo Tao, who is also a veteran actor in "Crazy Stone".

This character may not seem to have much role, but he is actually quite crucial.

It is precisely because honest people are bullied that the character that makes Mr. Zhao arrogant and domineering becomes more fleshed out, and it also makes Hu Jun's behavioral motives more reasonable.

The entire conflict in the film and the emotions that arouse the audience are all borne by him.

Therefore, the choice of actors is also very important. Many people watched it in the early stage, but Zhou Yutang was not satisfied.

In the end, Bald Xu took the initiative to recommend Guo Tao to Zhou Yutang.

After the audition, my performance was really good.

This guy looks very honest just by his appearance. He graduated from Chinese drama and has been in the industry for more than ten years. His acting skills are quite solid.

Guo Tao's first few scenes were shot very smoothly, mainly explaining his relationship with Hu Jun, and then leading to subsequent conflicts.

Today is a night show.

After his home was demolished by thugs from Mr. Zhao's real estate company, he stood on the street, haggard and helpless, watching his home become a ruin.

My daughter's cries.

Tears welled up in the eyes of the honest man.

How miserable it is, it makes people feel sad.

"Click, passed."

Zhou Yutang, who was behind the monitor, nodded with satisfaction: "Teacher Guo, your acting skills are really good."

After filming the night scene, Guo Tao took the wet towel from the set manager and wiped his face, changed his clothes, and said with a smile: "Just call me Lao Guo."

"I would also like to thank Director Zhou for giving me this opportunity."

He looks honest on the outside, but he is also a social person, and his scenes and words are very beautiful.

This is completely normal. After being in the entertainment industry for so many years, even honest people have learned a lot.

"Brother director, what about me?"

Li Gengxi popped out of nowhere, looking as if you were going to praise me so arrogantly.

Li Gengxi plays the daughter of the honest man Guo Tao in the play. This post-2000 child is also the one who has been recruited by Xu Jinglei.

Since he was a minor, Li’s mother was on the set with her child. Just as she was talking to the crew, Li Gengxi came over to Zhou Yutang, and she quickly chased after him: “Xixi, don’t disturb the director’s brother’s work. "

"Oh, I'm sorry, brother director."

Li Gengxi nodded and apologized politely.

Those big eyes looked curiously at the handsome director brother in front of him.

Zhou Yutang touched her head and praised: "You are great too. Keep working hard and you will definitely become a star in the future."

"Really?"

Li Gengxi grinned and followed Silly.

In the film market, several movies scheduled to be released in April have begun to enter the stage of crazy promotion, with overwhelming press releases.

Xu Jinglei's "Du Lala" was released first. This movie, with a total investment of only 20 million, was adapted from Li Ke's novel of the same name. It also produced a TV series starring last year's frustrated competitor Wang Luodan. It is scheduled to be released in the second half of the year.

Zhou Yutang received an invitation to the premiere, but he was on the set filming and did not attend the premiere of this sister. However, this film was invested by China Film Group, and Han Sanping attended the premiere in person.

The box office performance after its release has also lived up to Mr. Han's expectations, with a box office of 8.5 million on the first day and 44 million in the first three days of the weekend. If this box office growth trend continues, it is almost certain that it will exceed 100 million.

However, due to the Yushu incident, the atmosphere was gloomy, and not many people discussed the movie's box office.

Li Shuang was still in Xiangjiang, so Zhou Yutang asked Mao Xiaoyu to fly to the capital for him and arrange the donation.

He was never shy about doing charity.

In addition to donating money, the main tasks are arranging various materials and donating to build Hope Primary School after the disaster.

With Zhang Ziyi's lesson learned, the entertainment industry was particularly enthusiastic about donations this time, and celebrities in the industry even issued additional invoices.

There are also opinions on celebrity donations. The amounts donated by first-, second- and third-tier stars vary.

This time, A-list celebrities donated about 500,000 yuan. Zhou Yutang donated 500,000 yuan, and Liu Yifei also donated 500,000 yuan through the China Children and Teenagers Foundation.

The other second- and third-tier stars probably all earn between 200,000 and 100,000.

The incident in Yushu diluted the entertainment atmosphere. Su Mang had 2008 years of experience and directly moved forward this year's Bazaar Charity Night.

"Xiao Zhou, this year's Bazaar Charity Night is being held in Shanghai."

After "My Love from the Star", Liu Yifei has received a lot of advertising endorsements recently, and she hasn't seen Zhou Yutang for a while. Her voice sounded a little missed:

"Are you still with the crew?"

"I might go to Hong Kong for a trip. I got a lot of nominations for the Academy Awards, but I have to praise you. Kindness is a beautiful quality."

Just after coaxing her, Liu Shishi called: "Yu Tang, I'm in Chengdu and will fly back to Shanghai to attend the Bazaar Charity Night."

"What about movie promotion? Aren't we going to the Flower City next?"

"Anyway, all the variety shows that I should appear on have already been performed. I specially asked Taozi to adjust her schedule. She will come back first to participate in the charity night, and then prepare to continue the road show promotion."

"How's it going? Are you surprised or surprised?"
