Chapter 214: Climbing to the top of the Forbes Celebrity List, stunning everyone
"Brother Tang, please calm down and stop being so promiscuous, otherwise the fish pond will really explode."
Zhang Ruojun, who came to visit the cast from the filming of "Snow Leopard", was looking through the gossip news with great interest, with a husky smile on his face:
"Brother Long, do what you say make sense?"
The members of the crew were very respectful towards Zhou Yutang, and a veteran like Baldy Xu was even more agitated.
Only Zhang Ruojun and Zhu Yilong could make such a joke with Zhou Yutang.
"I can compile 100 pieces of gossip news like this for the sake of popularity in an hour."
Zhu Yilong and his assistant distributed milk tea to the crew members, then moved a chair to sit next to them.
"Brother Long, do you have any special feelings about filming with the National Master?"
"Feelings?"
Zhu Yilong thought for a while and said with a smile: "I can't say it's special, but how should I put it? Director Zhang has his own requirements and standards when making films. If he doesn't meet this standard, if it feels wrong, he will have to do it again over and over again."
"How about the little yellow duck?"
"My name is Zhou Dongyu."
Zhu Yilong sighed helplessly.
Ever since Zhou Yutang mentioned this nickname once in a group chat, Zhang Ruojun also followed suit.
But when I think about the emoticons that Zhou Yutang found somewhere, I can’t say that they are somewhat similar, I can only say that they are basically exactly the same.
Brother Long, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, couldn't help laughing.
It is not so easy to be a girl. Zhou Dongyu, who is just starting out, may have talent and the youthful feeling that the national master wants, but his acting skills are too immature, and he has been trained by the national master for a long time.
"Ruojun, I heard Yu Tang say that you are going to participate in a variety show?"
"Yeah, what Brother Tang arranged is his company's new variety show Running Man. The news on social media has been crazy in the past few days."
Zhang Ruojun raised his eyebrows: "I think it's quite fun to play games outdoors."
"By the way, Brother Tang, when will the show start recording?"
"Next month, the planning department is currently working on the planning plan for the first episode, and I will be the guest for the first episode."
Zhou Yutang smiled and took a sip of his drink.
Zhang Ruojun has a temperament that likes to be active rather than quiet, and he also has a bit of a funny character, so he would probably be very fun to play in a running man.
Tian Ming's work efficiency was very high, and the domestic first-tier TV stations also showed considerable sincerity, and a meeting was quickly held in Shanghai.
In the end, the top management of the Magic City TV station reached a consensus, defeated several strong opponents, spent a lot of money to launch the first outdoor variety show in the country, and gave an astonishing dividend contract linked to the program's ratings.
Zhou Ningfeng, the deputy director of Suzhou TV Station, was very reluctant.
He also wants to take a chance on Stud, but there are many constraints in Suzhou Province, and he is not the one who has the final say.
Zhou Yutang has been calling every night for the past few days, and Zhou Yutang is also helpless. Apart from chatting with Liu Tianxian and Liu Shishi, he also has to chat with this brother.
After eating two variety shows in succession, "If You Are the One" and "The King of Masked Singer", this ambitious deputy director of Jiangsu Provincial Television Station still feels that it is not enough.
He wants to improve so much.
The old station director of Jiangsu Province Station is about to step down, and Zhou Ningfeng is considered one of the candidates with a better chance.
But there are several contenders with more senior qualifications than him. He needs a program that can allow him to secure his position. No one wants to build a good relationship with Zhou Yutang more than he does.
Zhang Ruojun nodded: "Okay, Brother Tang. When the time comes, together we brothers will be invincible."
At this time, the crew was taking a break from filming. The three brothers were sitting and chatting. Zhang Ruoyun suddenly seemed to remember something and patted his head:
"Brother Tang, you haven't been in the capital recently, so you don't know that there are dozens of large-scale high-end venues there that have been raided, and many celebrities in the entertainment industry have been caught on the spot. The scene is quite tragic, and the entertainment industry is very lively. .”
Speaking of such gossip, Zhang Ruojun was very excited: "I remember the Heaven and Earth store you mentioned before. It's a pity that I haven't tried that store. It seems to have closed down."
"I have never heard of such things as Heaven and Earth and Prince Hotel. Don't slander good people."
Zhou Yutang looked upright, and Zhang Ruojun twitched the corner of his mouth slightly: "Zhai Tianlin from our class went to play in the heaven and earth with the production crew, and was caught by Sir."
"Because he is our classmate, he was in the news a few days ago and was called a disgrace to the film school. The school received the news and expelled him directly."
"That's fine."
Zhou Yutang nodded slightly when he heard this: "It can be regarded as eliminating a scourge for society."
For a young actor like Zhai Tianlin who wants to develop in the entertainment industry, with this dark history, almost no crew will dare to use him in the future, and his acting career will almost be ruined.
At this time, everyone was of different levels. When they heard about this, they just took it for fun. Zhou Yutang didn't take that name to heart at all, and said calmly: "The place in the capital was swept away. Why do you sound a little regretful to me?"
"How can it be."
Zhang Ruojun rolled his eyes: "Brother, I am also a man with a bottom line. I would not be able to go to such an entertainment place even if I were killed."
Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly, and heard something from this guy's tone: "Is it better than 80 points?"
Zhu Yilong was a little curious: "What 80 points?"
"Brother Long, at the end of last year, on the day you went back early because of family matters, Xigou met a girl with a score of 80, tell me how you ended up falling in love with her?"
"Ahem. Brother Tang, if someone has a name, it's Tang Ting."
"At that time, I went to an audition with Brother Tang and bumped into someone else's car. I later compensated her and she even invited me to dinner. Later I attended a friend's party and she was there. What a coincidence, I saw her off that night. Going back."
"Have you done it yet?"
"Why go up and sit down?"
Zhang Ruojun was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted and said speechlessly: "Damn, Brother Tang, can your thoughts be more pure? We just had a brief chat, then held hands, and she even bought me an ice cream."
Can you be so excited just by holding hands?
Zhou Yutang shook his head: "Then why did you change your name?"
Zhang Ruojun suddenly became a little embarrassed: "Now I have changed my stage name to Tang Yixin. In fact, we are not together. Maybe we just appreciate each other and have a good impression."
Zhou Yutang seemed to smell the sour smell of love, and glanced at him lightly: "Did you change this name?"
"It can't be said that I changed it. After discussing with me, I felt that the name Tang Ting is too common. If you want to be in the entertainment industry, your stage name must be loud. I read books for several days and thought it would be better to call her Tang Yixin."
"Okay, little dog."
Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows and smiled, with a hint of ridicule: "I'm getting better so quickly. I have to let Brother Long learn from you."
Zhu Yilong smiled and shook his head: "I'll forget it, I'm not interested in this."
"Speaking of Brother Long, I'm a little dizzy."
Zhang Ruojun was speechless and said: "I send messages and chat every day to study acting skills. I also introduced one of Xiao Tang's best friends to him, but the girl almost fainted."
"What happened to Brother Long?"
"I added Penguin as my friend. I said I'm Zhu Yilong. The girl was still waiting for him to send a message, so he went straight to her."
Women will only affect the speed of Brother Long's acting improvement
Zhou Yutang nodded slightly, feeling a little funny.
In fact, given Zhu Yilong's conditions, he is handsome and has a lot of money. He bought a house in the capital before graduating, followed Zhou Yutang and became a popular niche in the industry, with a bright future.
If he wanted to find a woman, it couldn't be easier.
But compared to women, Zhu Yilong seems to be more interested in acting.
This is a very pure person, and Zhou Yutang also respects Brother Long's ideas. The next step is to arrange for him to perform in a drama at the People's Art Theater, and by the way, he will enter the advanced training class at Shanxia Academy.
Continue to settle down and make steady progress.
Zhu Yilong is not a talented actor, but because he works hard enough, it is not difficult to perform several movies.
Zhou Yutang has already negotiated with two veteran actors, Wang Jianhui and Wu Gang, to serve part-time as acting professors at Yamashita Academy.
Both of these two have decades of drama experience. Although they are not famous, their acting skills are very good.
Whether they are loyal, evil, good or evil, all kinds of characters can be handled with certainty.
Moreover, this person has profound performance experience and theoretical foundation, and has also taught students. Compared with a talented and experienced player like Zhou Gongzi who just plays the same teacher, he is much more reliable.
Thinking of Mr. Zhou, Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed.
Liu Yifei complained to him.
She was rarely free a few days ago. When she went to the Yamashita Academy for performance training for the first time, she was full of expectations.
It was also an acting training class given by Mr. Zhou, the three-time Best Actress in the Best Actress.
As a result, she was asked to perform a piece. Liu Tianxian felt that there was a difficulty, so he went to ask Mr. Zhou.
As a talented cheater, Zhou Xun looked stunned and said: "Hey, isn't this very simple? Just invest a little bit, and then you can do this or that."
Good guy, Liu Tianxian can't be punished directly.
Facts stated.
Being good at acting yourself and being able to teach students are two different things.
At least for now, the quality of Zhou Gongzi's teaching is very worrying.
Zhang Ruojun and Zhu Yilong returned to the capital soon after visiting the class.
Both of them are going to join the cast of "The Legend of Zhen Huan".
Zhu Yilong is the King of Guojun in this drama, and there will be another movie "Shanshan Is Coming", which is scheduled to next year.
As for Zhang Ruojun, he was probably very jealous of Tang Yixin at the time. He pestered Zhou Yutang to get a role in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", and they were going to focus on filming his scenes there because he also had "Running Man" variety show to follow. Recording.
The time soon came to late May.
The box office of "Sword Rain" has exceeded 355 million, and the average daily box office has dropped to less than 3 million, which is not far from the estimated box office.
The preparations for the "Running Man" variety show have finally come to an end, and the planning for the first episode has been completed.
While Zhou Yutang was filming, he personally reviewed the details of the process in the evening, and initially decided that he, Liu Shishi, and Deng Ziqi would be the invited guests for the first episode.
for the rest of the time.
Zhou Yutang devoted all his energy to the filming of "Big Shot".
At the end of May, the 2010 Forbes China Celebrity List press conference was held in Beijing.
This meeting aims to record and promote the rapid development of China's entertainment, sports and other related industries through the celebrity list.
This year's Forbes celebrity list covers Taiwan, Taiwan and Taiwan for the first time.
As soon as the list comes out.
Zhou Yutang inevitably became the absolute center of attention again.
With a cumulative annual income of more than 320 million, he topped the celebrity list.
Next up is the 56-year-old kung fu superstar Jackie Chan, with an annual income of more than 200 million. He is the first person to hold a concert at the "Bird's Nest". He is so respected that I won't mention it much.
Jay Chou ranks third with an annual income of 125 million.
Classmate Zhou has not released a new album, and his several film and television works have not been satisfactory. However, his position as the king of the Chinese music scene is untouchable, he has an astonishing number of fans, and he is rich in wealth.
Liu Dehua followed closely with an income of 89 million, and then came the little giants Yao Ming, Zhang Ziyi, Zhao Benshan and others.
Fan Xiaopang turned into a model worker last year, received more than 30 endorsements, earned more than 30 million yuan, and ranked 11th on the list.
Then there is Liu Feiren, and mainland first-line stars such as Huang Xiaoming, Zhou Xun, and Zhao Yanzi are probably around 20 on the list.
Income and exposure.
These two items are important indicators for the Forbes China Celebrity List to quantitatively measure the value of stars.
Mainly depends on income, which not only reflects the celebrity's net worth and activity level in the past year, but also reflects their respective development status in the industry.
This year's Forbes Celebrity List has been announced.
It can't be said that it was an uproar, it was just a tsunami, and the Internet completely exploded.
"I knew Zhou Yutang could make money, but I didn't know he could actually make money so much."
"Halo, Zhou Yutang is not really an alien, is he? He seems to have made more than 100 million just by investing in real estate and buying that building in Beijing. Is this included in the statistics?"
"Industry insiders tell you that it is not as simple as statistics. Last year's "Latent" and "My Love from the Star" can bring him at least more than 100 million in revenue, and the box office share of "The Lonely Agent" is at least more than 100 million. , "To Youth" also made tens of millions, and there are several TV series, how can it be only 320 million?"
"The people upstairs are just kidding. They really treat money as cabbage. It's probably an exaggeration."
"I'm dizzy. Why do you feel that Zhou Yutang makes more money than the listed Huayi Company?"
"Normally, Huayi Company has a big business and some investments have suffered losses, but Jiangdong Entertainment belongs to Zhou Yutang, and all the investment projects are profitable."
"I, a staff member of the TV station, would like to give you some information. Many people may not know that Zhou Yutang is the boss behind the largest variety show production company in China, including several phenomenal hit variety shows, as well as the variety show Running Man that is about to be launched by Modu Channel. , it was all planned by him.”
"Jiangdong Navy came to explore the way. The governor randomly opened an online clothing store for his mother. Calculating the sales, the annual income is at least tens of millions."
“The governor’s donation last year was eight figures, and many hope primary schools were built in impoverished mountainous areas.”
"Passers-by only know that Zhou Yutang plays with flowers. Is he so caring? He deserves to make a lot of money."
"You're handsome and talented. You're young and rich, and you know how to have fun. Zhou Yutang, you really deserve to die."
"No wonder so many female stars in the entertainment industry like him. All the men like him. Does Zhou Yutang lack a boyfriend?"
There are different opinions on the Internet, and many so-called professional revelations have emerged.
There are truths and lies.
Although some of them really capture Zhou Yutang's true income, there must be some discrepancies in the specific amount.
Zhou Yutang's real income is only much higher than the statistics from the celebrity list.
For example, "The Lonely Agent" was announced as a large investment of 80 million, but in fact it only cost less than 50 million.
There are also several dramas invested by Jiangdong Entertainment. The publicity costs are also higher than the actual costs, so the statistical data naturally has errors.
certainly.
Zhou Yutang will not release his specific income information to the public, but will only let the company's public relations department prepare press releases to guide public opinion.
However, only the tip of the iceberg has been revealed, which has already made the entire entertainment industry boil.
Everyone can understand that the second-placed brother Jackie Chan earns more than 200 million.
After all, this is an old man who has been popular for decades and has a high status in the world.
How many years has Zhou Yutang debuted?
It has achieved such outstanding results.
All of a sudden.
Inside and outside the circle, countless people's eyes focused on Zhou Yutang.
He became a hit when he debuted at the age of eighteen.
Within two years, his status soared.
Other celebrities are still busy competing with each other. Twenty-two-year-old Zhou Yutang has quietly climbed to the top of the Forbes celebrity list.
Astonished everyone.
There is also a lot of buzz on the Internet about Zhou Yutang's net worth.
There are outrageous rumors that he has a rich background and is one of the top three generations. He relied on his strong background to become successful and basically walked sideways in the entertainment industry.
I have to say that netizens are really imaginative.
The entertainment industry is not without stars with vast backgrounds, but most of these stars act in a low-key manner.
A sister like Yu Feihong just does her own thing and there is never any scandal about her. There is also a certain teacher who guest-starred in "Let the Bullets Fly"
The more special one is Miss Jingtian.
In ancient times, there was a saying of accompanying the prince to study, but now it is to accompany the princess to play in the entertainment industry.
Mr. Lu's star company is of this nature. The only artist signed is Jing Tian, and he also asked Zhou Yutang to take care of him.
There is a crazy discussion on the Internet.
In reality.
The attitude of the crew members towards Zhou Yutang was also different from before, and their tone of voice was a little more awe-inspiring and respectful.
The most typical one is Xu Guangtou.
This guy always comes to Zhou Yutang whenever he has something to do.
At the same time as Rainbow fart, he vaguely and roundaboutly inquired about Zhou Yutang's net worth, which also made him more determined to hug his thigh.
Others didn't dare to ask. Li Yao was one of Zhou Yutang's own. When the crew was having dinner at the hotel after work, he asked: "Boss, some of my classmates came to me to ask about you. They all admire you."
"What did you say?"
"I do not know either."
Li Yao blinked Shui Ling's eyes and smiled with white teeth: "I am the boss's employee. How can I know so much?"
Zhou Yutang smiled slightly: "Then next time you tell your classmates that your boss is basically well-off and is still working hard to make more money to find more wives."
Poof!
Li Yan covered his mouth with joy and chuckled: "Boss, you really know how to joke."
Zhou Yutang smiled and said nothing.
Not only Li Yao, but friends around Zhou Yutang are also very concerned about this matter.
Yang Mi immediately sent a message of condolence. She had always been concerned about how much money Zhou Yutang earned.
But this time when she topped the Forbes celebrity list, Yang Mi was really shocked. The figure behind her seemed to be getting further and further away from her.
Tang Yan's scene was over, but she still made a phone call and asked Zhou Yutang to treat her to dinner in an almost coquettish tone.
When Hu Ge came to the crew to reshoot the scene, he also teased: "Okay, Mr. Zhou, take your brother with you when you can, so that I can feel the feeling of taking off with your arms in your arms."
Yuan Hong, who followed, felt a little restrained.
Money has given Zhou Yutang a very dazzling coat.
Beijing.
Tianxianjia Villa.
Aunt Liu was sitting in the living room, watching TV absentmindedly.
The TV station is playing a popular drama. It's boring. Please change the channel.
Advertisement, cut again.
I saw Jiangsu Province TV station playing an advertisement for Zhou Yutang's upcoming new drama from Jiangdong Entertainment.
Aunt Liu looked at it with relish.
Suddenly she heard the sound of the door opening. Aunt Liu's heart moved and she tilted her head slightly.
"Mom, I'm back."
Then, Liu Yifei came in from the outside happily.
Putting down the remote control panel in her hand, Aunt Liu stood up and took Liu Yifei's bag. She seemed to be careless and asked:
"Sissi, Mom wants to ask you something."
