Chapter 269 Tonight or later, I’ll hold you in my arms

"magician?"

"right."

Zhou Yutang explained to Liu Tianxian, who was as curious as a baby: "You have read the script, right?"

"Uh-huh."

"Then what are your thoughts on the character Akai?"

"It's very mysterious and powerful."

Liu Yifei suddenly said: "He is the final winner in "Thieves". The magician you are talking about is Akai, right?"

"so smart."

Zhou Yutang briefly told her about Akai's identity and the outline of the story of "Now You See Me".

"A League of Thieves" is a group drama, and even the characters of Leslie Cheung and Huang Zhengmin have a lot to explore.

The protagonist Akai is full of mystery and can perfectly take on "Now You See Me". Yu Tang has already written part of this drama this week and will wait until "Thieves" is released to see the market response before making a decision.

After watching the movie, cultivating immortality, and before going to bed.

Zhou Yutang frowned and looked at the script Liu Tianxian took out from his bag.

There are two copies in total.

The first one is "Four Famous Catchers" by Chen Jiashang.

This is Wen Ruian's big martial arts IP. Now there is a saying on the Internet that "Jin Guliang Wenhuang". The fact that Wen Ruian is ranked behind the two masters Jin Yong and Gu Long shows that this person is very capable.

Zhou Yutang has also read Wen Ruian's novels. Although there are many historical common sense errors, it is undeniable that he is indeed quite talented and his works have film and television adaptation value.

Chen Jiashang can be regarded as a mountain in the mainland of Hong Kong.

Being under the tutelage of Zhang Zhao, the boss of Enlight Pictures, is also quite ambitious.

His "Famous Four" should be the first of a series of movies.

But even if Qing Qing turns into a woman, each of the four famous catchers on horseback has superpowers.

He had read the script, and the company offered him a salary of 20 million yuan, plus dividends linked to the box office, and asked him to star in Cold Blood, teaming up with Liu Yifei.

Zhou Yutang refused at that time.

He can probably get the thinking of this group of Xiangjiang directors. This is what "Fist of Heroes" is like. They want to play tricks and incorporate the superhero settings of Hollywood hero movies to create a so-called modern new martial arts.

"If this movie is made, the reputation will be terrible."

Seeing Zhou Yutang comment confidently, Liu Tianxian was a little confused: "Xiao Zhou, what about the second part? Mom thinks this drama is very good."

The second script is "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet".

This movie is controlled by Starlight International. It was announced last year that Lu Chuan was initially chosen. However, Lu Chuan had many ideas and said that he would use a contemporary perspective, compare history and restore history, and let the camera go back to ancient times to make a movie. A film that cares about modern values.

The investor's father felt that he was unreliable and immediately kicked him out. However, he turned to Hong Kong director Li Rengang.

Lu Chuan has made another movie of his own, "The King's Feast", and is in the lap of Xing Mei and Ying Huang. Not only do these two movies have conflicting themes, but they also seem to be about to collide next year, which is a good show.

Scan the script at a glance.

Zhou Yutang shook his head slightly.

No surprises, nothing to look forward to.

When Liu Tianxian waited for him to read the script, he couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Zhou, how is this movie? They are going to let me play the role of Yu Ji."

"It's not that great either."

"That's it"

Liu Yifei looked a little disappointed: "But this is the best script the studio has ever received."

"."

Zhou Yutang was also silent.

Resources that he despises.

For Liu Tianxian, it is already the best choice.

Nowadays, there are many mountains in the film and television industry.

Although Liu Tianxian is very popular, he has no foundation.

Huayi will definitely not look for her, and the top film and television projects in the industry are basically for big stars.

Only Hong Kong representatives who wanted to make money from Liu Tianxian's fame extended an olive branch.

Liu Yifei rested her head on his arm and blinked: "Xiao Zhou, you seem to have a lot of objections to those directors in Xiangjiang."

"It's not that I have an opinion, it's that I respect the laws of the market."

Zhou Yutang hugged Liu Tianxian's fragrant and soft body and said: "This group of Xiangjiang directors lack the most basic respect for history and mainland audiences."

"They don't care at all about what the mainland audience wants to see, or in other words, they don't have the ability to empathize with the mainland audience. They just want to sensationalize and attract attention. They make movies purely to make money. Sooner or later, their reputation will be ruined and they will be It’s appropriate to scold them. In the future, when you choose scripts, you must pay attention to these Xiangjiang directors. If you are not careful, you will fall into the pit.”

"oh."

Liu Tianxian nodded, looking at Zhou Yutang with a pair of beautiful eyes.

"Look what I'm doing, haven't you seen a handsome guy?"

She was so tough after entering the sage mode. Liu Yifei leaned her head in his arms and said coquettishly: "You are so thick-skinned. How can anyone say that you are a handsome guy?"

Liu Tianxian's fragrant and soft body and the sweet and greasy sound of her breasts made Zhou Yutang's sage mode end early.

Just when he was about to make a move, Liu Tianxian suddenly raised his head, stared at his cheek, and said: "Xiao Zhou, I want to make a movie with you, is that okay?"

"Let's see next year. There will be opportunities in the future."

"Just like the movie you made with Liu Shishi."

"."

Zhou Yutang knew that she was talking about "Those Years".

After the movie was released, it helped Liu Shishi become a national school beauty, and her popularity skyrocketed.

First Love CP is even more popular on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

Until now, a considerable number of viewers are still talking about this couple. Every time Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi walk on the red carpet at some award ceremonies, you can hear the call for the two to be together.

Seeing Liu Tianxian's soft and expectant eyes like a cat looking at its owner, Zhou Yutang really couldn't bear to refuse.

After a slight change of thought, he hugged Liu Yifei, rested his chin on her shoulder, and said firmly: "Let me think about the script first."

Liu Yifei smiled sweetly, leaned into the strong and warm embrace, slightly pursed her lips in a nice curve, and said in a sweet and soft voice: "Xiao Zhou, I will listen to you."

Liu Tianxian only stayed for one night and then left.

As a popular actress, although she took a break, her popularity has not diminished at all.

At the end of the year, there were many business activities, and she had to fly to Mango Terrace to attend the event, and then spend the New Year with her grandma in her hometown.

Zhou Yutang continued to devote himself to the work of the crew. The remaining scenes of "Thieves" were not difficult, but the visual effects shots were more cumbersome.

It's very complicated, and many of them are all CG, so a lot of preliminary preparation is required. If you want to complete it in a short time, you must know exactly how many shots there are.

Zhou Yutang led a visual effects team of several hundred people and discussed with Chen Xi for a long time to determine the amount of tasks, the number of shots, and the division of labor.

With so many people on the crew, the overall labor cost is a huge expense, so it must be completed as soon as possible.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, so he asked Mao Xiaoyu to prepare various New Year gift bags, dumplings, glutinous rice balls and other new year goods, and each person wrapped a red envelope.

I will do morning work these days and no night scenes will be filmed.

Let the crew gather together in the evening to celebrate the New Year lively.

It's a bit bitter, but you still have to have a sense of ritual.

This year, my grandmother was in poor health. Zhou Yutang asked her parents to stay at home to take care of the elderly. Instead of letting her family come over, she made a video call to her home.

After getting through, I greeted my parents first.

Then I saw Yang Chaoyue’s delicate and beautiful face in the video, and was slightly startled.

"Why are you here?"

"Hey, brother."

Yang Chaoyue smiled slyly: "I came to see Aunt Wang. Besides, the doctor said that your grandma's health has recovered. Are you still filming on the set? Aunt Wang just gave me a red envelope, look."

She seemed to have a lot to say, and she took out the red envelope from her pocket as if it were a treasure.

Xiao Koi seems to have some good luck. Thinking that his grandma is getting better, Zhou Yutang is relieved.

After chatting for a while, Zhou Yutang couldn't help feeling that time flew by so fast.

When he first met Xiao Koi, he had just debuted, and Xiao Koi was also a primary school student.

In the blink of an eye, they are all grown up girls.

"Little Koi, do you still want to be a star?"

"Of course, I want to be a big star, a very popular one!"

Yang Chaoyue raised her superior little face, full of confidence and determination.

"Not afraid of hardship?"

"I'm not afraid!"

"Okay, I'll make arrangements"

Zhou Yutang looked at the firm light in the girl's eyes, and the gentle smile in her eyes became stronger.

It just so happened that Pei Yun reported to him yesterday that the talents seconded from the SM branch were very efficient and had basically completed the department structure there.

Zhou Yutang plans to start recruiting trainees next year.

The little koi is undoubtedly one of them.

He was not worried about whether Yang Chaoyue could adapt to the living environment there.

For a young girl with a precocious mind, a tenacious personality, and a determined goal, no matter how unfamiliar the living environment is, she is not insurmountable.

"Xiaoyu?"

After hanging up the phone and withdrawing his thoughts, Zhou Yutang called softly.

Mao Xiaoyu was not here, but Zhang Ruojun's head poked in from the outside: "Brother Tang, Xiaoyu has gone home, what do you want to do with her?"

"fine."

Zhou Yutang suddenly felt that he had given his assistant a half-day holiday and asked her to go home for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Originally, he was going to Zhang Zhen's father's place for New Year's Eve dinner. After all, he and Zhang Ruojun also had a father-son relationship.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ruojun had another quarrel with Zhang Zhen's father today, and he ran to the crew first to join Zhou Yutang.

Although the love between father and son is thicker than water, from an outsider's perspective, Zhou Yutang found that the relationship between father and son was very problematic.

Zhang Zhen's father is a bit like a feudal patriarch, and he always speaks his mind at home. However, Zhang Ruojun has become popular this year, and his wings have become hardened. How can he bear it?

I had a few words against Zhang Zhen's father at home and they broke up unhappy.

However, Zhang Ruojun's stepmother Liu Bei called Zhou Yutang and said a lot of good things.

"Where's your 80 points?"

"Brother Tang, her name is Tang Yixin."

"Tang Hexin?"

"Tang Yixin."

"Tang Yi what?"

"Tang Yixin, stop playing with me, Brother Tang."

Zhang Ruojun's expression twitched slightly, and he came forward and gave Zhou Yutang a slap on the back in a clumsy manner: "I have something to do with you."

"Not strong enough."

"Brother Tang, are you satisfied?"

Zhang Ruojun pounded his shoulders harder: "You usually work so hard on the crew, and you have to work overtime even during the Spring Festival. If you feel uncomfortable if you have any, just tell me, and I will serve you well."

"okay."

Zhou Yutang wasn't teasing him, and glanced at him with a smile: "You want to trick someone into joining the crew of "Reply"?"

"Brother Tang Yingming, how did you know?"

Zhang Ruojun was startled for a moment, and then began to sigh and praise.

The expression is just right, but the expression of emotion is not smooth enough, and it is a little less intense than Xu Guangtou.

Zhou Yutang glanced at him with a smile: "Zhou Shufang said that you went to find her. Was it Tang Yixin who asked you to help?"

"No."

Zhang Ruojun shook his head and said in a frank tone: "She has become somewhat famous after the broadcast of "The Legend of Zhen Huan". During this time, she has been running around to audition for dramas. I think this drama you made will be popular. For her, He said it was a good opportunity, so I wanted her to try it.”

"Are you stupid? Why don't you come to me directly?"

"Hey, you've been so busy lately, I don't have the nerve to disturb you."

Zhang Ruojun scratched his head: "Brother Tang, if possible, just let her play a supporting actress."

Zhou Yutang looked at Husky, who looked obsessed with love, picked up the phone and dialed Xu Ming's number, deciding on the role in a few sentences.

The heroine must be Yang Mi from our company.

But the heroine in this drama has a best friend, so Tang Yixin can be cast.

Zhang Ruojun, who heard the dust falling to the ground with his ears pricked, was overjoyed. He came up to express his hospitality and beat his back: "Brother Tang, I am really my good big brother!"

"My father is really worried about you!"

"Brother Tang, Brother Long will be on the Spring Festival Gala later. He will sing and dance with the little yellow duck on the same stage. I am going to take screenshots and record the whole process."

"Are you human?"

Zhou Yutang said disdainfully: "Remember to be more clear about it later. This is Brother Long's dark history."

"I may not be a human, but you're a real dog."

Zhang Ruojun's mouth twitched slightly, thinking that he must not offend Zhou Yutang in the future, lest he would put his foot in the sand.

The two brothers were talking and laughing until Tang Yixin's call came in, and Zhou Yutang immediately smelled the sour smell of love.

This girl went back to her hometown in Sichuan for the New Year and was pleasantly surprised to learn from Zhang Ruojun that she had chosen the role.

Listening to his daughter-in-law wishing him new year's greetings, Zhou Yutang felt a little lonely.

Gao Yuanyuan is filming on the set. Liu Tianxian and Zeng Li have returned to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year. Liu Shishi has an event today and will probably get home very late.

I searched all over for my confidante, but no one was around.

Zhou Yutang was thinking about asking Teacher Fan out for a heart-to-heart talk. Fan Xiaopang had already settled in the capital and opened an acting school here as the principal.

As soon as he picked up the phone, Zhang Ruojun ran over excitedly to tell the news: "Brother Tang, Shi Shi is here."

Zhou Yutang didn’t expect it either.

Liu Shishi actually came to visit the class and brought a batch of new year's goods.

Dressed up similarly to the event that day.

Wearing a simple black slim turtleneck sweater with a black skirt.

Her arrival caused a small commotion among the crew.

The people who eat melons are very excited.

On New Year's Eve, Liu Shishi was away from home and came over to visit Zhou Yutang. The relationship between these two people was very unusual.

In front of everyone, Liu Shishi was very gentle and reserved, asking Zhang Ruojun to help distribute some new year's goods, showing her demeanor as the wife of the governor of Jiangdong.

Zhou Yutang was still a little restrained, but when he entered his room, he became a little unscrupulous.

He grabbed Liu Shishi's waist and gently held this beautiful black swan in his arms.

Then.

Slowly lowering his head, he pressed his lips towards those particularly charming lips.

Liu Shishi did not evade, but raised his chin slightly and responded enthusiastically.
