Chapter 242 Unparalleled King, Setting a Record

Chapter 242 Unparalleled King, Setting a Record

Barry is only half of 90.

This is not Zhou Yutang's style of doing things during the golden publicity period.

He didn't go to bed until after 3 o'clock in the morning last night. When Zhou Yutang got up to catch the plane, Yu Feihong still fell asleep late in Haitangchun.

After kissing goodbye.

Zhou Yutang continues his road show.

On the plane, I thought about co-producing a blockbuster.

There is a process for doing things in the system.

This is the situation in China.

According to Mr. Han, the matter has been decided, but there will still be many meetings.

After Zhou Yutang discussed with Han Sanping, they tentatively decided to come up with a script plan first.

"Co-production between the two countries, big scenes, big production, big stars."

Zhou Yutang held his chin in his hand and pondered for a long time. He clicked on one of the folders among several alternatives and murmured: "That's it."

The other side.

The road show continues.

Fan Xiaopang has worked hard for so long, and her face is a little haggard.

During this period, we had a video call one night. In addition to seeing the enchanting figure of this sister, it was also obvious that she was in a very happy mood.

Tang Yan is in another publicity group with Hu Jun and Mei Ting.

I once again saw Zhou Yutang, who was energetic and full of electricity, joining the road show team.

Tang Yan's tone was filled with surprise: "Yu Tang, you went back for a day of meetings, took on a talk show, and then flew back to do promotions. How can you still be so energetic after working so hard?"

"Everyone is so tired, so I deserve to suffer."

Zhou Yutang, who had just come out of Sister Yu's gentle village, said shamelessly: "Actually, I forced myself to hold on. I didn't fall asleep until three o'clock last night."

"Young people are full of energy."

Hu Jun waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "I'm getting old. I go back to the hotel after road shows during the day and fall asleep every day on the bed. I fall asleep talking on the phone with my wife. She says I snore. Like thunder.”

"Who says it's not the case? I've got dark circles under my eyes."

Mei Ting pointed to his big eyes, and the bags under his eyes were getting deeper.

"Everyone bite the bullet again."

Zhou Yutang clapped his hands: "The final stage of the road show promotion has ended with a celebration banquet at the Imperial Hotel in Beijing."

"Long live Director Zhou!"

The final box office of Guoshi's "Hawthorn Tree" was set at 155 million.

Donnie Yen's "Fist of Heroes" has completely become cannon fodder. It only took 58 million at the National Day box office and was released ahead of schedule.

On the other hand, the total box office of "Empire of Heaven" directed by Xu Ke reached 248 million.

National Day file at this time.

It has become a stage where "Big Shot" shines.

With good reputation and excellent attendance, theaters will also further increase the film schedule. After 8 days of release, "Big Shot" has the potential to dominate the world.

The cumulative box office is 440 million!

This is a pretty astonishing number.

After creating the fastest box office to exceed 400 million, it also broke the record of "Avatar" for the fastest to exceed 420 million.

On the first day after the National Day holiday, the box office dropped significantly, but the box office still reported 26.5 million that day.

This is already the well-deserved king of the National Day season.

"Yu Tang, who did you call just now? I called several times and you didn't answer."

Listening to Yang Mi's very recognizable sweet voice, Zhou Yutang said lightly: "Shi Shi."

Okay, it’s my real girlfriend’s phone number.

Yang Mi instantly changed the subject: "Congratulations, you broke the record again. This is heading towards 900 million."

"You can use a little more imagination."

Zhou Yutang's mouth twitched slightly.

"How much box office can we get?"

"Probably between 600 million and 800 million."

"By the way, I have something to ask you."

"What's wrong?"

"The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling by Zhang Yimou."

Yang Mi asked with hope: "Do you think I have a chance in this drama?"

"You want to make progress too much."

Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Don't you have two movies and a TV series in your hand?"

Recently, "Big Shot" has appeared on the Internet and steadily dominated the headlines, and then there is Zhang Yimou's blockbuster.

It tells the story of the dark years in Nanjing in 1937. A church hid several clergy, a group of ladies, 13 prostitutes on the Qinhuai River who escaped from the war, and 6 wounded soldiers who crawled out from the dead. Together we face the most horrific and inhumane massacre in history.

At present, the scenery has been set up in Nanjing covering an area of ​​150 acres.

What the National Master is doing this time is big production.

Yang Mi's voice became sweeter: "I think this is a good opportunity, what do you think?"

Zhou Yutang thought for a while and said: "There are a lot of female roles in that drama. I will ask the agency department to arrange it. You can also go over and try out the role."

Yang Mi's heart moved slightly: "Then do you think I can choose?"

"It doesn't matter what I say."

Zhou Yutang chuckled softly: "The role of National Master depends on his choice."

Yang Mi couldn't help but ask: "Then how did you stuff Zhu Yilong into "The Hawthorn Tree"?"

Zhou Yutang was a little speechless when he heard this: "I just mentioned it to the national master at the time. Zhu Yilong himself performed well in the audition, so he nodded."

He is very popular in the circle and has deep connections, but he does not cover the sky with one hand, and he has no friendship with Zhang Weiping, the "boss" of the National Master.

"That's it."

The slight disappointment in Yang Mi's voice flashed away: "Congratulations on your box office success. When will the road show end?"

"Probably next week, you can come to the celebration party later."

"Oh well."

"Is there anything else?"

"never mind."

Yang Mi listened to the busy signal when the phone hung up.

Wei Wei was startled.

His eyes quickly regained clarity and determination.

Although there is little hope.

But this is also an opportunity for her.

I will definitely audition for the show when the time comes.

Because she never hides her ambition to move up.

In the second week of the release of "Big Shot", with the sad exit of "Hawthorn Tree" and "The Empire of Heaven", it has completely confirmed its absolute dominance in the National Day schedule.

The box office revenue on October 9th was 25.3 million.

In the second week of its release, the daily box office growth was slowly decreasing, but the single-week box office still reported 160 million.

At this time, the total box office has reached 580 million, which has surpassed "The Lonely Agent".

Zhou Yutang’s road show promotion has finally come to an end.

Next, some interview programs will be released soon.

Beijing.

Dynasty Hotel.

Although the movie is still in theaters, the champagne has already been opened during the intermission.

The four giants Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun, Wang Changtian and Yang Shoucheng were all present.

Yang Shoucheng flew over from Xiangjiang on the same day and had to go back to handle group affairs the next day.

Huo Wenxi and Li Xiaoping were helping greet the guests.

Lu Zheng also took Jing Tian to the celebration banquet.

"Brother Yu Tang, congratulations."

Jingtian blinked his big Kazilan eyes, his smile was still so sweet.

Zhou Yutang smiled: "Thanks to Mr. Lu for helping me this time."

Wanda Cinemas has developed rapidly in the past two years and has become the leading cinema chain in China. Lu Zheng has spoken for himself at Wanda Pictures, plus he has good relationships with cinemas such as China Film and Magic City United.

Everyone worked together, so the film schedule of "Big Shot" has remained high, which is why it has achieved an almost miraculous box office today.

Lu Zheng patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Yu Tang, you're welcome, but the quality of your movie is still excellent. Besides, we are all our own people, and Tiantian will need more help from you in the future."

He was also quite pleased.

Zhou Yutang really makes everyone famous.

In the middle of this year, Jing Tian participated in the outdoor variety show Running Man. In just a few months, he attracted countless fans and his popularity skyrocketed.

This is not the fake popularity that he used to spend money to buy drafts, but the real national fan base.

To put it simply, many passers-by got to know Jing Tian, ​​a down-to-earth young lady, through the variety show Running Man.

There were many guests here tonight, and Big Dog Brother also hugged each other familiarly, "I originally thought "Sword Rain" was enough of a surprise, but I didn't expect there would be something even more powerful. Congratulations, Yu Tang."

Brother Big Dog felt really emotional.

After this movie.

Zhou Yutang was directly promoted to a top domestic first-line commercial film director.

"Brother Big Dog, don't be offended if you don't treat me well later."

"You go about your business, and I'll have a drink."

The big dog brother waved his hand to express his understanding.

The banquet was star-studded today.

Cai Yinong from Tangren Film and Television brought Hu Ge to join in the fun. Seeing this luxurious lineup, I couldn't help but secretly chuckle.

Her subordinates would be embarrassed to say hello to anyone if Hu Ge, the first brother from the Tang Dynasty, was not there to control the situation.

In addition to Zhao Yanzi and International Zhang, Fan Binbin, Li Binbin, Xu Jinglei, and Zhou Xun were all present in the Four Days Double Ice.

At Jiangdong Entertainment, Zhang Songwen joined the crew for filming, and Zeng Li, Zhu Yilong, Li Yao, Yang Mi and others were all present, and they were all honored.

Big-name artists from Guangguang and Yinghuang also came, and all members of the recently popular Running Man Brotherhood were also present.

Just this scene is not inferior to an award ceremony of a normal scale.

The entertainment reporters outside the hotel were as excited as if they were celebrating the New Year.

We have a good relationship with Jiangdong Entertainment, and the media reporters who were invited into the banquet hall were even more ecstatic. There was too much news material.

But among these bright stars.

Zhou Yutang is undoubtedly the shining star.

"Director Zhou, congratulations on having the opportunity to cooperate."

"Mr. Zhou, congratulations on the box office success."

When Zhou Yutang appeared in a silver-gray custom-made suit, there was a small commotion.

A flurry of flattery.

Zhou Yutang looked calm and smiled, greeting guests from time to time.

"Why is Donnie Yen here?"

"I don't know, I'm not familiar with him."

"I'm familiar with you."

Zhou Xun touched Zhou Yutang with his arm and joked in a ghostly manner: "Next time you have a movie, remember to come to me. I can act well, and I can get a discount on the salary and a friendly price."

The integrity of the three golden actresses was shattered to pieces.

At the celebration banquet.

Of course, leadership speeches are indispensable.

Of course, Mr. Han, the head of China Film Group, was not allowed to speak.

The image of him holding Zhou Yutang's shoulders with a glowing face, as if he was in control of the country. The high-spirited and exciting scene was also photographed by the media reporters present.

Next is the ice crushing session.

There was thunderous applause at the table, and the flashing lights never stopped.

Zhou Yutang sat at the table of the creative team.

Although very tired.

But when they saw the ice sculpture numbers that symbolized the extremely prominent box office figures, they were still excited.

Not only was Zhou Yutang promoted to a top commercial film director, but Hu Jun, Mei Ting and others also benefited a lot.

After Hu Jun starred in "Red Cliff", he successively starred in "Roboman", "Mulan", "My Brothers from the Tang Dynasty", and "October Siege". None of the movies could recover the box office.

His performance was quite outstanding and he won many awards in "October Siege", but he was ranked behind many Hong Kong actors in the film.

But it's different now.

Hu Jun's character, an old policeman, in "Big Shot" is very plain and not as impressive as Zhou Yutang's chaebol son.

But he is also the undisputed leading actor.

After starring in this phenomenon-level blockbuster movie, Hu Jun's popularity rose sharply, and his salary was directly raised to 8 million.

Even before the movie was released, he had received many endorsements and business activities.

"Yu Tang, I won't say thank you anymore, it's all in the wine."

Hu Jun's face turned red with excitement, he raised his head and poured the wine in the cup into his mouth.

Wang Jinghua's smile was almost crooked, and she had a vaguely flattering attitude: "Yu Tang, tell me directly who you want to use in the future, and I will help you arrange it. There will be a schedule at any time."

This is also a hero among women, without any ambiguity, he raised his glass and drank three drinks in succession.

"Haha, thank you very much, Sister Hua."

Zhou Yutang also had a drink with him.

This is beautifully said.

But if given the opportunity, he would definitely prioritize his own people.

"Director Zhou, if you can get my role in the future, just say a word."

Although Mei Ting had serious dark circles under her eyes, her smile never stopped.

She made the right move this time by taking the lady route.

Originally, I just thought of trying Zeng Li, but I actually got the role.

Unexpectedly, the box office of the movie was so explosive. The box office of all the movies in her acting career combined was not as high as this one.

After the excitement of the evening.

Zhou Yutang returned to Zeng Li's house.

Sister Li will still take care of people.

I know Zhou Yutang drank a lot tonight.

As soon as he entered the house, he made honey water for him, and then put the water for him to take a bath.

However, due to Zhou Yutang's strong request, the two took the bath simultaneously.

The mandarin ducks playing in the water are omitted.

Done.

She put on a soft blue nightgown, and her cheeks were gleaming with radiance. Sister Li was wiping her hair with a dry towel.

But seeing Zhou Yutang already sitting in front of the laptop, he walked over with a little curiosity, glanced at the open word document with his beautiful eyes.

After following Zhou Yutang for so long, I naturally knew that he was writing a script.

The beautiful woman in Tsing Yi was very considerate and didn't say anything.

Gently wiping his hair, he quietly watched Zhou Yutang's flexible but rhythmic fingers tapping on the keyboard, and looked at the four bold characters at the top of the WORD document:

"A League of Thieves."

……………………

"In the 18 days since the release of "Big Shot", the total box office has exceeded 654 million, breaking the record of "Earthquake" soon!"

"Since its release, "Big Shot" has grossed HK$39 million at the Hong Kong box office. Zhou Yutang has dominated the Hong Kong movie rankings for three consecutive years!"

""Big Shot" has detonated the film market in Bay Province. Less than three weeks after its release, the box office has exceeded NT$150 million. It is now being shown in Southeast Asia and other places!"

""Big Shot" swept South Korea unstoppably. Two weeks after its release, the number of moviegoers exceeded 8 million, and it occupied the top spot in the single-day box office list and weekend box office for two consecutive weeks. According to South Korea's authoritative box office statistics agency, it has exceeded 10 million viewers. It’s only a matter of time before the movie hits!”

The headlines of entertainment portals every day, the box office information of "Big Shot" is refreshed on time.

Countless practitioners in the film and television industry are paying attention to this information.

So far.

"Big Shot" is the undisputed king of the National Day season.

And it’s not just domestic kingship.

This is a blossoming inside and outside the wall, sweeping the film markets in other places such as Hong Kong and South Korea!
