Chapter 262 Asian beauty reaches the pinnacle
The meeting here will end.
The agent took Lin Yuner to catch a plane.
Looking at the cheerful and smiling Lin Yuner, her manager was also very happy: "Although there are not many roles, I am really happy to get such an opportunity. In the future, I must have a good relationship with Director Zhou on the crew. You know, Yun Son?"
"Sister, I got it."
"I'm already looking forward to this movie."
The female manager took Lin Yoona onto the plane, still feeling excited.
Being able to participate in such a commercial blockbuster co-produced by the two countries, Lin Yoona has completed the first step in transforming from an idol to a movie star.
This is a breakthrough in the entertainment industry.
The agent couldn't even think about it.
She was just a low-level worker in SM Company, so naturally she didn't know the exchange of interests between the senior management and Zhou Yutang.
From her point of view, this is pie from the sky.
Fragrant and sweet.
If Yoona got this opportunity because of the scandal with Zhou Yutang, then she wished they could really get together.
People in the entertainment industry are so realistic.
Anyway, I will definitely find a man in the end.
That's not as good as being with a man who has ability and status.
Looking at the white clouds outside the plane window.
Unknowingly, Lin Yuner fell into a sweet dream.
A girl's heartbeat.
Like the wasteland on a midsummer night, it can never be cut or burned.
When the wind blows, the weeds cover the sky.
"Your little lover is here, why don't you stay with her for a while?"
Fan Binbin's eyes flickered and he glanced at the man in front of him.
After the meeting, it is scheduled to hold a launch conference at the end of December, and then the filming will last for three months.
Everyone had their work to do, and Fan Binbin found Zhou Yutang. They had a rare get-together, so they started joking.
This enchantress has pretty red lips and a lazy attitude, which reveals her seductive charm unintentionally.
Zhou Yutang turned his eyes away from the goblin, scrolled through the news on his phone, and denied it: "What a little lover, don't talk nonsense, it's nothing."
"Oh, it looks like it hasn't reached your mouth yet."
Fan Binbin stretched out his legs and rubbed Zhou Yutang's legs and feet under the table, holding his chin in his hand: "Next month, "New Shaolin Temple" will be released, and I may have to ask for leave."
"New Shaolin Temple" is scheduled to be released during the Spring Festival, and promotional releases will begin to be distributed this month.
But the most discussed thing is not the luxurious cast such as Andy Lau, Jackie Chan, Xie Bianwang, Fan Binbin, Wu Jing, etc., but the producer of the movie.
This is the first big-budget movie for the Shaolin Group to join forces with Emperor and spend 200 million to enter the film and television industry!
"The filming will start here by then."
Zhou Yutang frowned slightly with his thick sword eyebrows and glanced at her: "I'll give you two days' leave at most."
Other crews and big-name actors can take 10 days and a half off to go out and promote.
But in his crew, it doesn't exist.
Everything must be done according to his shooting rhythm.
All actors have signed contracts in advance, and big stars have no special privileges.
If anyone has an opinion, change someone else.
Seeing his unfazed expression, Fan Binbin quickly assured, "Don't worry, it won't delay the filming. I'm just going to attend one or two road shows. Do you want to come to the premiere?"
"I won't go."
Zhou Yutang shook his head.
To be honest, there are quite a few familiar faces in this drama.
The director is Chen Musheng. In addition to Fan Binbin, Liu Dehua and Wu Jing also have a good relationship with him.
But after "The New Shaolin Temple", "The Lost Road" will soon be released in the Lunar New Year period, and the two parties are direct competitors.
Seeing Zhou Yutang's relaxed expression, Fan Binbin was still frightened and secretly cursed: "What a heartless man."
……………………
On the 10th day after the release of "Let the Bullets Fly", the box office reached 360 million, and it became a hit at the box office. Only Xiaogangpao's advertising blockbuster "If You Are the One 2" can compete with it.
By this time, it was starting to feel like a battle between dragons and tigers during the Spring Festival.
This "If You Are the One 2" has more than 20 advertisements, and it has already made a huge profit of 60 million from advertisements alone.
Some people have previously called Zhou Yutang the king of advertising and marketing. The advertising placement in "My Love from the Star" has been cited as a marketing case, but he has never done this in a movie.
Including this time's "Thieves Alliance", we have talked about several endorsements such as suits, watches, cars, beer, drinks, etc., focusing on quality rather than quantity.
All of them create more benefits without affecting the audience's movie-watching experience.
But Xiaogangpao's "If You Are the One 2" movie hasn't even started yet, and the 15-minute commercial at the beginning has left people stunned.
However, at this time, Xiaogangpao was firmly in the top three directors in the country, and his prestige was still there. Many viewers walked into the cinema just by looking at his name, and Huayi Company spared no effort in publicity and marketing.
It took in a box office of RMB 35.25 million on the first day. It bucked the trend and surged on the second day, taking in a box office of RMB 46 million, still beating out "Let the Bullets Fly".
At this time, "Let the Bullets Fly" has successfully exceeded the 400 million mark, and the Spring Festival period has completely become a battlefield for these two movies.
The launch conference of "Thieves Alliance" was held as scheduled in Beijing.
Han Sanping, who was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, had a red face.
Two big names, Yang Shoucheng and Ren Zhonglun, were also present, collectively supporting this blockbuster.
But the one who gets the most limelight is undoubtedly Zhou Yutang, who is wearing a slim-fitting Armani suit. He is tall and tall and looks extremely handsome.
"Oppa is really, really handsome."
Lin Yoona, who was wearing a small dress, her eyes sparkling with excitement, covered her mouth with her hands and whispered to Li Zhien.
Li Zhien looked at his boss and nodded in agreement.
Since Han Sanping is taking action, this "Thieves Alliance" press conference will be grand enough.
After all, this is the first co-production between the two countries, and it is directed by Zhou Yutang himself. It has already attracted a lot of attention during the casting process. At this time, the luxurious lineup emerged, which attracted the attention of countless people.
Dozens of media were present today, as well as Weibo and specially invited media from South Korea, who were broadcasting the entire press conference live.
Lin Yoona is paying a lot of attention. Zhou Yutang, Liu Dehua, Fan Binbin and others are almost unrivaled in popularity in China.
The audience at the scene was as if they were on fire, especially when the leading actors came on stage after being introduced by the host, the roar of the mountains and the tsunami shook the roof.
The host is Zhou Tao, who has a good relationship with Zhou Yutang. After introducing the starring cast, he is responsible for controlling the audience and asking questions: "Yu Tang, your previous works "The Lonely Agent" and "Big Shot" have been widely praised in the film markets of the two countries. For this What can you expect from the movie?”
"This is a group drama where characters come first. The story is unfolded based on the character's personality. I can only say that there is a way to cheat, and there is a way to thief."
Zhou Yutang answered a few questions, and the main creative members such as Liu Tianwang and Fan Binbin also won the favor of many media.
The crew of "Thieves" took the initiative to release several photos of the final makeup, and the scene was quite lively.
In order to keep confidentiality, some crews will not reveal the plot in advance during filming to avoid leaking the plot.
For example, Lao Mouzi's Thirteen Hairpins were kept strictly confidential by the entire crew.
Several of the girls, probably because they were too excited to become a girl, revealed some photos of the training details on their social accounts, and then they were encouraged by interested people. Reporters immediately followed the clues and found the training base.
The final result was that the four actresses were talked to by senior management of the crew and subsequently fired.
"Thieves" has released the final makeup photos of the starring team. The ones that have attracted a lot of attention are Zhou Yutang, Liu Dehua, Zeng Li, Fan Binbin, and Lin Yuner.
The rest, Zhang Guoli, Huang Bo, etc., are much worse.
After all, this is a society that values appearance.
Zeng Li wore a women's blouse and unbuttoned a few buttons on the shirt. She was full of heroic spirit and showed off her body curves to the maximum extent, which perfectly interpreted the charm of a mature woman.
Fan Binbin is even more bold.
Wearing a slightly see-through leopard print dress with slits reaching the top of her thighs, she showed off her proud and charming figure.
The launch conference and the makeup photos caused an uproar on the Internet:
"Hua Zai becomes more and more handsome as he gets older, and Zhou Yutang is even more top-notch in Asia."
"Zeng Li is really beautiful, Fan Binbin is so beautiful, and the eldest sister must be good-looking, Lin Yoona is too young."
"If you were asked to choose one of the big ladies in China to be your lover, who would you choose?"
“It’s no brainer to choose Zeng Li.”
"I choose Xu Jinglei, the goddess of literature and art, this is the one she likes!"
"With all due respect, Xu Jinglei is not as good as the International Chapter."
"Hold the grass, the warrior upstairs, do you want to stir up the water tank with a toothpick?"
"Zhao Yanzi and Li Binbin are not very good either. They are beautiful, and they can easily make people lose their desire."
"It must be Fan Binbin."
"If Gao Yuanyuan is available, choose Gao Yuanyuan; if Gao Yuanyuan is not available, choose Fan Binbin."
"Fan Binbin +10086."
The movie has not yet started shooting, and the discussion is abuzz.
In a passionate battle among netizens, Fan Binbin won the first place in the voting for the most suitable female star to be a lover.
Not only is it on the front pages and hot searches in China, it also has a wide influence in South Korea.
SBS, who has a good relationship with Zhou Yutang, mentioned this press conference in the news.
According to the argument there, everyone is proud that Hwang Jung-min, Lim Yoon-ah, Lee Ji-eun, and Kim Soo-hyun can join the cast of such a blockbuster.
The Kimchi forum also held a vote for Asian beauty, and Zhou Yutang was elected by a narrow margin, defeating the neon actor Takuya Kimura.
And when the external heat continues to rise.
The crew of "Thieves" has officially started filming.
The schedule was coordinated in advance, and the South Korean actors did not have many roles, and the filming started in mid-to-late January.
Zeng Li is also busy with the follow-up work on the drama promotion of "The Legend of Zhen Huan", and it will take some time before he can join the cast.
"Photography team, how are the camera positions prepared?"
"Ready, director."
"OK, ready to start."
"Action!"
The opening scene shows Jiang Wenli and Fan Binbin pretending to be mother and daughter to deceive the rich man, the director of a private art museum. Then the gang of thieves work together to steal the treasures in the private art museum.
The actor who plays the curator Kaizi is Xu Guangtou.
This guy was going to participate in a variety show in two days to promote "People on the Road". His attitude was very positive and he said he was coming to study. Zhou Yutang got him to play a guest role.
With his acting skills, he can play this type of role well, such as the boss who can walk through the rocks at every step, and the cemetery manager in Racing Cars.
In the lens.
Xu Zheng is wearing a suit and leather shoes, a wig, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He has a smile on his face and makes people want to laugh.
When Xu Zheng stood together with Fan Binbin in a tight white dress and black stockings, he felt even more joyful.
Jiang Wenli is also a winner of three Grand Slam Awards, so her acting skills are unquestionable. When she came in, she immediately turned against the guests and opened a bottle of red wine in Xu Zheng's office.
"I heard that my daughter gave her virginity to you, Director Xu, right?"
"."
Bald Xu opened his mouth with a confused look on his face. He didn't expect his "mother-in-law" to be so unrestrained.
"Mom, don't be so direct." Fan Binbin, in a white dress and black stockings, looked shy.
"Even if it's a Mercedes-Benz, once you ride in it, it becomes second-hand."
Jiang Wenli continued to look at Bald Xu up and down, like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law: "Stand over there and let me take a good look."
Xu Guangtou held his head high and had a flattering look on his face.
Jiang Wenli looked like she was obsessed with money: "I am a more direct person. You have a lot of money, right?"
"hey-hey."
"I heard from my daughter that the entire art museum belongs to you?"
"For now, it belongs to my father."
Baldy Xu began to show off his wealth, and Jiang Wenli took advantage of the opportunity to ask to see the consignment collection managed by his art.
"I'm sorry, honey, my mom is a little weird, isn't she?"
Fan Binbin blocked Xu Guangtou's sight with his body and cooperated to distract him.
"Don't worry, I'll take her to see the collection later."
Xu Guangtou looked like a licking dog who was immersed in love: "She will definitely agree to our matter."
After Jiang Wenli stole the information, she followed Bald Xu to the museum's collection.
Fan Binbin began to perform a performance that stunned everyone present.
Take off your high heels.
A pair of black stockings showed off her slender legs on the carpet.
I took off my white jacket first.
Then she took off her white skirt.
Revealing a tight black suit, he walked towards the window sill with his long legs.
As he walked, he used the rubber band on his wrist to comb his loose wavy hair into a ponytail and put on the headphones to communicate with his teammates.
Then, her long legs stepped onto the window sill, highlighting her explosive figure to the fullest.
"Come on, launch."
"Oh, Kai has made some progress."
"I shot the ball."
Liu Dehua stepped on the edge of the rooftop and chewed gum with a relaxed expression.
Zhou Yutang, whose name is "Akai", assists in controlling Wia, with a childlike and handsome face.
"Perfect."
Zhou Yutang watched this footage behind the monitor and was quite satisfied.
He held the walkie-talkie to indicate that the scene was over.
This time there were more than 300 people in the entire crew, and they were divided into two groups.
He led the first group, and Wen Muye was watching the other group.
Of course, "Rescue Mr. My Life" will make way for "Thieves", and the filming team brought this time are all the elite old units of Jiangdong Entertainment.
Many of them have cooperated with Zhou Yutang several times, and their experience and ability can be regarded as industry leaders.
The literary and drama part went very smoothly.
The more difficult thing is Fan Binbin’s next Wia scene.
Fan Binbin has been in the industry for more than ten years and has experienced a lot of battles, but he has never taken on such an exciting scene.
Hang the wire, parallel to the ground, and run and climb on the building.
The most important thing is to capture nature and beauty.
This is also a big challenge for her.
After several trial shots, none of which went well, Zhou Yutang stepped forward and asked politely: "Sister Binbin, do you need a substitute?"
"Need not."
Fan Binbin gritted his teeth and said: "I trained for a month in advance for the scene in this high-rise building. There is no reason to give up now!"
"do it again."
Zhou Yutang was somewhat impressed.
They say this sister is a blanket star.
Only after working together did I realize that Fan Binbin is actually very professional.
A stand-in could have been used for this shot, but she still did it herself.
There was an action where he fell from a tall building and then rolled out of the window. It was quite dangerous. He was filmed several times and Fan Xiaopang's back was bruised after the fall.
But still insisted on completing this shot.
Zhou Yutang felt a little sorry.
Be prepared to find opportunities to comfort her.
"Let the Bullets Fly" is still booming at the box office.
On the other hand, after "If You Are the One 2" gained momentum in the first two days, the box office dropped to just over 30 million on the third day.
Hua Yilian's voice, which was originally shouting to break the box office record set by Zhou Yutang's "Big Shot", gradually became quieter.
Follow this trend.
I'm afraid it can't even beat "Let the Bullets Fly".
At this time, Jiang Wen has successfully joined the 400 million box office club.
He proved to investors that he was capable of making good commercial films.
The spring breeze is so proud that the horse's hooves are so fast that I can see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.
After several years of dormancy and frustration, I finally achieved today's meteoric rise.
According to the publicity plan formulated by Zhou Yutang, Jiang Wen led the creative team to start a road show.
On this day, Jiang Wen's wife Zhou Yun, who had just transferred from the Magic City to Huacheng, squinted her cat eyes and watched the box office rising steadily, her face full of joy.
"Lao Jiang, according to this trend, is it possible to hit Yu Tang's record?"
"Disaster."
Jiang Wen shook his head and said with emotion: "It's difficult. If you look at the comparison of box office forecasts on Maoyan, it is close to 100 million behind during the same period, and it is difficult for the final target to exceed 700 million."
Zhou Yun was also sincerely impressed: "Yu Tang, you are really amazing."
The box office record is close to 800 million.
It's like a towering mountain standing in front of the entire Chinese film industry.
Zhou Yutang reached the top.
Being condescending and arrogant.
sometimes.
After achieving some results beyond my imagination.
People will always drift.
Maybe you have always warned yourself not to get lost in those flowers and applause.
But this kind of emotion arises naturally and instinctively. You don't even realize it, and there is already a problem in dealing with people.
In the past, Zhou Yutang would still feel inflated after achieving success.
The method he chose was to go back to school and continue to settle down, or find a girl to relax and have a sweet love.
Anyway.
The key is to temporarily break away from that flashy circle.
From another perspective, live a different life for a period of time until you gradually calm down and understand that your original intention is to continue to make progress.
After getting acquainted with Bald Xu, Zhou Yutang's resistance has improved a lot under Xu Bald's all-pervasive rainbow fart skills. Most people don't even notice it when they are praised.
But this time facing the over-enthusiastic audience, Jiang Wen probably got a little carried away. His head got hot and he spoke bluntly: "Look at these audiences, how smooth and full their expressions are. Many people in the film industry don't have them." How can they make a movie for the audience at such a low level!”
The truth is this.
Everyone knew it, but when Jiang Wen said it, the film industry was in an uproar.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Many gangsters became angry and felt that the "many people" he mentioned also included themselves. Are they trying to ruin their jobs?
Suddenly, many industry experts and filmmakers who besieged Jiang Wen emerged one after another, which further increased the popularity of the movie "Let the Bullets Fly".
"Yu Tang, are you interested in this big project?"
"Mr. Yang, I really don't have time. My work has been scheduled until the end of next year."
"That's such a shame."
After hanging up the call from Yang Shoucheng, Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed.
Fan Binbin's fox eyes were shining, he raised his head and asked, "Is this the Yinghuang Yang Shoucheng?"
"Um."
Zhou Yutang pushed her head back again.
"Well!"
Fan Xiaopang let out a low groan of unknown meaning and bit him in retaliation.
