Chapter 237 A girl with aura, explosive reputation

Chapter 237 A girl with aura, explosive reputation

With the news that "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was sold for a sky-high price, people outside the industry just watched the excitement and took advantage of it.

But those who are interested in the circle have already taken action.

At that time, several film and television companies announced the project of Qing palace drama. Tang Dynasty's "Step by Step" was the first to start filming and get the first shot. There was also another company who acted equally quickly.

"In "Palace" produced by Yu Zheng Studio, Yang Mi will be invited to play the heroine?"

Zhou Yutang was not surprised when he heard the news brought by Li Shuang.

After the project of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was established, there were many news about palace dramas, and Yu Zheng was one of them.

This is also a talented person. He has made a Qing palace drama script and is preparing to start filming immediately.

The heroine of this kind of palace drama naturally needs to be a popular online actress to handle the ratings.

There is Liu Shishi in "Bu Bu Jing Xin", and the only one who can compete with Liu Shishi is Yang Mi.

"Yu Tang, do you want the artist management department to get back to you?"

"No need."

Zhou Yutang chuckled lightly: "The filming of "Step by Step" has started. It will be broadcast first when the time comes, so that the others behind can also have a drink, but Yang Mi's asking price can be raised a little."

"Mimi, there is a new drama, and you are the heroine!"

After receiving the notice from Jiangdong Entertainment, manager Zeng Jia immediately found Yang Mi excitedly.

Although Yang Mi was happy in her heart, she didn't show it. She picked up the phone and said, "It's Yu Zheng's "Palace". I'll call Yu Tang first and see what he says."

In the past, I only knew how to act recklessly and work hard, but later I realized that a word from Zhou Yutang is not as important as Zhou Yutang's.

After following Zhou Yutang, Yang Mi also learned to be smart.

And after the ambiguous incident in the cafe, it seems that he has relaxed a little. Now that he has a project, he must call Zhou Yutang first to ask for his thoughts and opinions.

A few minutes passed.

After hanging up the phone, Yang Mi nodded to Zeng Jia with a smile on her face: "Sister Jia, Yu Tang said he could take the call. He wants me to accompany him to a dinner party in two days and he said he would introduce me to some friends."

"Congratulations, Mimi."

Zeng Jia was startled for a moment, then overjoyed: "It's about to take off."

Zhou Yutang took Yang Mi to the dinner and casually introduced some producers and directors in the circle. These are valuable resources.

……………………

The aftermath of "Earthquake" finally dissipated, and the final box office was fixed at 670 million.

Zhou Yutang was invited to attend the celebration banquet of "Earthquake".

Beijing, Hilton Hotel.

Wang Zhonglei held Xiaogangpao's shoulders and stood on the high platform. Facing the eyes of everyone looking up at him, his whole person felt a little elated:

"Huayi and Xiaogang have achieved each other's success. The record of "The Great Earthquake" is here, which is a kind of perfection for Xiaogang, and it is also a kind of perfection for Huayi."

Balabala talked a lot.

First, remember the bitterness and think about the sweetness, but the focus is still on showing off.

Making a movie is like all the people in silence.

Even giants like Huayi Company sometimes suffer losses.

Some time ago, "Spy Sea" lost more than 20 million US dollars. Zhou Yutang met Wang Zhonglei at an event, his face dropped, and he lost a lot of his hair in worry.

More than 20 million US dollars is not more than 2,000 yuan.

It may be equivalent to Huayi's profit for the entire year before it went public.

Moreover, the company's stock price continued to plummet during that period, and the two Wang brothers' net worth evaporated a lot. This time "Earthquake" can be considered proud and proud.

It created a box office record for Chinese movies. Although there was a lot of criticism about this result, investors seemed to be more confident, and Huayi Company's stock price also rose accordingly.

The ancients said that if wealth does not return to its hometown, it is like walking in brocade at night.

The high-spirited Wang Zhonglei gave up the stage of showing off to the little steel cannon.

Of course he also noticed Zhou Yutang, took the initiative to put on a smile, walked over and hugged Zhou Yutang's shoulders affectionately: "Yu Tang, it's so difficult to invite you here."

Everyone in the industry knows it.

Compared with ordinary celebrities who are keen on attending parties and banquets, Zhou Yutang does not like to attend such occasions.

If you are not a close friend, it is difficult to see him.

Zhou Yutang smiled and said: "Mr. Wang, congratulations on the box office success. This is my company's Yang Mi."

Yang Mi greeted her very discerningly: "Mr. Wang, hello."

"Well, you're good."

Glancing at Yang Mi who was holding Zhou Yutang's arm, Wang Zhonglei understood instantly and showed a smile that every man knows: "Yu Tang, you did a good job in promoting your movie. I saw the trailer and it was really exciting. .”

"Mr. Wang, you're welcome, "Tongtian Empire" is the one that is highly anticipated."

"Haha, I hope we don't lose too badly during the National Day event."

Although there were smiles on their faces and they were talking about each other's business, only the person involved knew how much of it was true and how fake it was.

Yang Mi held Zhou Yutang's arm obediently.

It was not suitable for her to interrupt in such a conversation between important people.

Wang Zhonglei was one of the protagonists tonight, so he was naturally very busy. After a while, he heard someone looking for him over there, said hello, and then left.

Wait until he leaves.

Yang Mi then came over and asked in Zhou Yutang's ear: "Yu Tang, why do I feel that he is showing off?"

"Your feelings are correct."

Zhou Yutang smiled.

Compared with Mr. Wang's calm personality, Mr. Xiao is obviously a bit wanton and flamboyant.

From his standpoint, the 670 million box office of "Earthquake" made Huayi Company the ceiling of the Chinese movie box office. He and Feng Xiaogang also appeared on stage and received the attention and applause of countless people.

Really proud.

As for the National Day stalls, don’t lose too badly?

It is estimated that Wang Zhonglei, who was a little arrogant at this time, did not mean what he said.

Some time ago, there were a lot of promotional releases all over the place, all promoting the fact that "Tongtian Empire" was about to point its sword at the Golden Lion.

Damimi felt a soft touch on Zhou Yutang's arm, and supported him with a sweet voice: "I think "Big Shot" will definitely have a higher box office than "Bongtian Empire". I will try to break Huayi's record."

After following Zhou Yutang, Yang Mi tasted a lot of benefits and subconsciously classified herself into the Jiangdong camp.

In the past, he would definitely not have said anything to offend Hua Yi.

Zhou Yutang was keenly aware of this, but didn't say much.

Because soon many people came to look for him.

Well-known figures such as Wang Jinghua, Chen Guofu, Big Dog Brother, etc. came to see him one after another, and they talked about the screening of "Big Shot" in the next few days.

Yang Mi finally had a deeper understanding of Zhou Yutang's connections.

A round of socializing and greeting.

Zhou Yutang chatted with Huang Xiaoming again.

"Brother Xiao Ming, what's going on?"

Zhou Yutang looked at the mature and beautiful woman brought by Huang Xiaoming and seemed to be talking to Yang Mi about something. The two women laughed wildly and looked a little confused.

Huang Xiaoming patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder and smiled: "It's the situation you thought."

"When did it get better?"

"On the night you were at the Pony Club."

Huang Xiaoming laughed: "That night, she drank too much, and I went to pick her up, and then she suddenly cried. What was supposed to happen next, suddenly happened."

No wonder.

Qin Lan is no longer in the cast of Lu Chuan's new movie "The King's Feast".

Zhou Yutang didn't say much about this.

Can old dreams come true again?

He doesn't know either.

But we are all adults and have our own way of thinking and doing things.

Huang Xiaoming will make his own decisions on emotional matters.

As a friend.

All I can say is that you stand by his side at critical moments.

Huang Xiaoming has reached an agreement with Huayi that the contract will not be renewed after it expires.

The two parties broke up amicably. At that time, he will set up his own independent studio and will star in the blockbuster "Anti-Drug" co-produced by the two places.

The two brothers skipped this topic with a tacit understanding, and talked more about the company's operation and development.

Huang Xiaoming asked Zhou Yutang for advice.

After all, he was able to start from scratch and develop the studio into an entertainment company of today's size in just a few years, which has been regarded as a miracle by many people in the entertainment industry.

"Uncle."

Zhang Zifeng is wearing a princess dress and looks so cute.

Compared with when she was filming "The Alone Agent", the little girl seems to have grown a lot taller, but her face also seems to be much rounder.

Zhou Yutang picked her up and pinched her round face, making the little girl giggle.

"This kid is really naughty. He asked for a day off from school today to attend the dinner. I'm so happy."

Mother Zhang also said to Zhou Yutang with some gratitude: "Mr. Zhou, thank you for recommending Zifeng to Director Feng."

"Sister Zifeng is very spiritual."

Zhou Yutang hugged Zhang Zifeng and said with a faint smile: "The future is bright."

With his stunning performance in "The Lonely Agent", Zhou Yutang won the Golden Goblet and the Academy Award for Best Actor.

Zhang Zifeng also became the youngest winner in the history of the Golden Goblet Award and Golden Horse Award.

It has attracted countless attention from inside and outside the circle, and the number of fans is even more than that of some female celebrities.

Moreover, her fans come from a wide range of ages. Most of them are fans of her parents, who are a bit like raising their own daughters. They all especially like this little girl’s amazing performance in "The Lonely Agent" and her performance in "Big Earthquake". Remarkable.

Mother Zhang has heard some words many times.

But what she said from Zhou Yutang's mouth made her excited, and she chatted with Zhou Yutang about trivial things during the filming of "Earthquake".

In fact, Zhou Yutang and Zhang Ruojun also chatted from time to time, and heard Xigou talk about sister Zifeng.

During the filming period, the weather was very cold. The crew gave Zifeng's sister the warm baby, which she shared with other extras, including Zhang Ruojun. She also showed her kindness when encountering difficulties during the filming. He is quite tough, and it can be said that he was born to eat this kind of rice.

Such a kind and sensible little girl is really endearing.

Zhou Yutang hugged Zhang Zifeng and thought of the little koi.

This girl worked hard and was admitted to the No. 2 Middle School. He also kept his promise and specially greeted Tian Ming, and then planned to transfer the little koi to the magic city to go to school.

Since she is interested in pursuing an acting career, she must be nurtured from an early age.

In the entertainment industry, looking good is very important.

But you can’t do nothing.

At least the business ability must be decent, otherwise even if Zhou Yutang insists on it, he will be ridiculed by a group of people, which is not very interesting.

Xiao Koi is the youngest artist under Zhou Yutang, so she was first given the most basic music and dance training there.

Let’s talk about winning at the starting line.

Strive to carry the banner of Jiangdong Entertainment traffic star in the future.

……………………

All the publicity that "Big Shot" needs to do has been done.

The first shot of the National Day schedule was fired by Zhang Yimou, and "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" was released first.

The national master is still the national master, and his skills are still there.

There is nothing fancy about this movie, the overall tone is gloomy, there are no bright colors and lights, there are almost no special effects, and even the story is very simple.

The realistic style is calm and calm, but the true feelings that directly touch people's hearts can be seen from small details.

Using only the simplest film language, it tells a story of pure love.

Zhou Yutang took Zeng Li to the cinema to watch this love movie.

When Zeng Li came out, her eyes were red, and Zhou Yutang comforted her.

There are also mostly positive reviews on the Internet, and the national teacher is really good at training actresses.

Zhu Yilong's performance is spot on, and the little yellow duck also expresses the character traits of the heroine Jingqiu very well.

The first-day box office was 12.8 million, which was also the best response from the market. It has broken the first-day box office record for literary films held by Poet Chen, and caused quite a shock in the industry.

Universe Dan and Liu Weiqiang also started to enter into crazy publicity mode, pretending to be in front of the media:

Universe Dan said confidently: "I had a great time filming "Fist of Fury". I believe it will bring you a different visual experience and the box office will be at least 500 million."

Liu Weiqiang also sounded very crazy: ""Fist of Fury" must be a very exciting blockbuster. The target is not the literary film directed by Zhang Yimou. The goal is to hit the National Day schedule."

"Just kidding, Zi Dan is Ip Man. He can hit 10. I think this movie can also hit the box office. Whether it is Xu Ke's "The Empire of Heaven" or Zhou Yutang's "Big Shot", I am confident Knock them out."

"This is too awesome."

Mao Xiaoyu, who was following Zhou Yutang, couldn't stand it any longer: "Boss, I think you should be conservative. Those two guys from Xiangjiang are so jumpy that they even blocked "Big Shot". How about we also publish a press release and build momentum first?" Make feet?"

"It's not necessary. The preliminary publicity is almost in place, and we have to go to the premiere there in a few days."

Zhou Yutang shook his head and said with a smile: "Let's wait and see. If the tone is too high, it might be difficult to step down in the end."

time flies.

In a blink of an eye, the day came for the screening of "Big Shot".

The Beijing Film Academy is particularly lively.

Zhou Yutang has been on the cover of the Beijing Film Academy's admission brochure for several consecutive years and deserves the honor of Nortel. This time, the screening was shown in the school's small auditorium, and the queue was full.

The school has already put up a big red banner at the gate, and has also hired a group of handsome boys and beautiful female students to serve as volunteers.

Yang Zi, who just entered school this year, pulled Guli Naza in his dormitory and said excitedly: "Naza, thanks to you, I got the ticket."

Zhou Yutang’s popularity at Nortel is no joke.

If it doesn't matter, I really can't get this ticket.

Liu Mengmeng also expressed sincere emotion: "Senior Brother Zhou is really amazing, there are so many celebrities here."

Today's Nortel can be said to be star-studded.

Except for Zhou Yutang, all the main creators including Hu Jun and Mei Ting were present.

Zeng Li, Zhang Songwen, Zhu Yilong, Zhang Ruojun, and Li Yao from Jiangdong Entertainment are also here.

Jiang Wen, Fan Binbin, Li Binbin, Xu Jinglei, Zhou Xun, Huang Xiaoming, Xu Zheng, Zhang Guoli and others, Wang Jinghua, Chen Daoming and others all came over.

Professional film critics include Zhang Baiqing, Huang Huilin, Fu Hongxing, Zhang Wei, Wang Renyin, Ding Yaping, Peng Jiajin, Chen Xuguang, Wang Xudong, etc. They are not ordinary people.

"Of course, my boss is the best."

A look of pride appeared on Gulinazha's delicate and beautiful face.

Her eyes were looking for Zhou Yutang's figure, but when she saw the figure among the bright stars, she suddenly felt a little humble.

After all, I didn’t have the nerve to go up and say hello.

At this time, Zhou Yutang had just finished chatting with Jiang Wen.

After a round of greetings, Zhou Yutang led the creative team to give a brief introduction on the stage. Without any more nonsense, they went directly to the film screening.

Everyone here is a professional in the industry.

If the movie is not good, all your hype about it will be of no use.

If the movie is good, these people will naturally help you praise it.

The famous film critic sitting in a row began to sit up straight.

The first movie "Those Years" directed and starred by Zhou Yutang has already given everyone a lot of surprises, and now this second movie is also sparing no effort in promoting it.

The trailer has already raised everyone's expectations.

The lawless rich second generation.

An experienced police officer.

Zhou Yutang played Zhao Tairen's arrogance and domineering to the extreme.

Hu Jun also played Sun Dasheng vividly.

The two people gave what can be called classic acting skills.

When the film screening ended, there was a burst of thunderous applause.

The film critics were all raising their hands to applaud, and they were excitedly talking to their companions.

obviously.

Zhou Yutang's "Big Shot" has been recognized by most people at the scene.

“I dared to take pictures, and the pictures were very good.”

"Old Tian, ​​you, a closed disciple, can do it."

"Don't flatter young people, there is a lot of room for improvement."

Tian Zhuangzi squinted his eyes, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

Several old men around him who were similar in age were speechless when they saw his happy expression.

Zhou Yutang has skyrocketed to the top, so why should he be praised?

There is still a lot of room for improvement.

Why, your apprentice still wants to hit the moon?

Zhou Yutang didn't forget to come over and say hello to Tian Zhuangzhuang.

Although these old men and women are old, in fact, this group of older generation filmmakers form a circle and have a considerable say.

The screening is over.

Critics began to leave the scene.

There were already many media reporters waiting outside the small auditorium.

These are all media outlets that have a good relationship with Jiangdong Entertainment. Because they cannot bring shooting equipment inside, they squat at the door, preparing to get first-hand interview materials.

There is another group of media reporters waiting outside the school gate.

The famous film critic Wang Xudong was helplessly blocked by several media outlets. An entertainment reporter almost put a microphone in his mouth: "Mr. Wang, what is your evaluation of this movie?"

Wang Xudong said: "Zhou Yutang did not disappoint me. If nothing else happens, this movie should be the box office king of this year's National Day."

The entertainment reporter suddenly became excited: ""Inception" has not been released yet, and there are also Zhang Yimou's "Hawthorn Tree Love" and Xu Ke's "Di Renjie: The Empire of Heaven", and Donnie Yen's "Fist of Heroes" is also If it is to be released, are you sure that Zhou Yutang's film will be a hit?"

"I am sure."

Wang Xudong pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and answered seriously: "I can only say that this is a film that has both commercial nature and profound connotation. Especially Zhou Yutang's performance, I am amazed."

"Mr. Wang, what is the ending of Zhou Yutang in the end?"

"Sorry, the plot of the movie cannot be spoiled. You will know it soon after the movie is released."

Seeing the crowds of people who refused to retreat, Wang Xudong gained a new understanding of Zhou Yutang's popularity.

After finally answering the questions here, I received another call from a colleague, and I staggered.

There was still a circle of media reporters blocking the school gate, and traffic was paralyzed.

While Wang Xudong was shocked by Zhou Yutang's popularity, he suddenly thought of a very practical problem.

The roads are blocked!

How could he get out! ?

the next day.

Zhou Yutang slept with the beauty in green in his arms until three o'clock in the morning.

I was too tired last night.

You must recharge your batteries.

Everyone in the team around me was given a half-day off today, but the conscientious Mao Xiaoyu called me at around ten o'clock, and her tone was quite exciting:

"Boss, the news that Nortel was blocked yesterday has already made headlines."

A gentle kiss on the cheek of the beautiful woman in Tsing Yi who was still sleeping soundly.

Get up and wash up, then open your laptop and read the news.

The screening of "Big Shot" caused quite a stir, and film critics worked overtime all night after returning home.

Wang Xudong: "From a script perspective, the story of Zhou Yutang's drama is very well completed. Whether it is the pushing and panning of the camera, the tone of the picture, the scene or the modeling of the characters, they are all just right. The overall structure is also very complete and the rhythm is perfect." Smooth, the most promising film in the National Day season."

Zhang Baiqing: "This movie combines fighting with humor, which is a tribute to Jackie Chan. But what impressed me most was Zhou Yutang's performance. He used his acting skills to tell people that success is not just about appearance, but also about acting skills. All I can say is that he deserves the Best Actor Award this year."

Ding Yaping: "Zhou Yutang breaks the shackles of his own image. He is a perverted plutocrat whose emotions are unpredictable and his heart is almost twisted. It gave me chills down my spine after watching it, and I felt hateful even when I got home. It is definitely a must-see movie during the National Day holiday. "

Zhou Liming: "The second film directed and starred by Zhou Yutang is quite exciting, but I am more concerned about the social issues reflected in the film, which are indeed very profound. In the film, a real estate developed by the Zhao Group is called Pearl River Garden. What is interesting is that a real estate company The first real estate product started by the richest man is called Zhudao Garden. Whether it is an intentional reflection is unknown, but it is undoubtedly thought-provoking."

I read a few movie reviews.

Basically, it's all good reviews, but of course there are some claptrap critics who are singing the opposite.

Zhou Yutang nodded with satisfaction.

The National Day war is gradually beginning.

Zhou Yutang has been busy with various schedules these days, and still has to take time to practice singing in the recording studio.

At the end of the month, I was a guest at Deng Ziqi's first concert in Beijing. During this period, I also received an invitation from Guangwang to attend the premiere of "Fist of Fury" with Zeng Li.

Universe Dan and Liu Weiqiang are in high spirits.

Li Xiaoping had a frown on her face, and Zhou Yutang soon learned the reason.

This drama is a project produced by Zhang Zhao of Enlight Pictures.

Led by Chen Jiashang, Liu Weiqiang was invited to be the director, and Universe Dan starred in the film. Shu Qi, Huang Laogou, Yu Wenle and a bunch of Xiangjiang people were used. Huang Bo could only play a supporting role in it.

Lighting is the main control, Shanghai Film and Television and Media Asia also participated in the investment.

This large-scale production, which cost 120 million yuan, is also an important project for Raytheon this year.

After watching the video.

Zhou Yutang crossed his legs and looked quite serious.

He didn't attend the cocktail party and got in the car directly to go home. Zeng Li asked curiously: "Yu Tang, how do you feel?"

"To be honest, it's not great."

"Then why did you look like that just now?"

"I'm professionally trained and don't laugh under normal circumstances."

"Then why are you laughing now?"

"I just can't help it."

Zhou Yutang hugged the beauty in Tsing Yi, and a subtle arc gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth.
