Chapter 294 A talented man and a beautiful woman, a gathering of old friends
"The mountain eagle has lured the wolf into the house again."
"How can domestic films survive with such chaos?"
"Imported blockbusters are ravaging the domestic film market, and Han Sanping must bear full responsibility."
China Film Group controls the schedule of imported films produced by China Film Group.
Nowadays, several imported blockbusters are killing people like crazy, and many film production companies in the industry are very angry.
Of course it was Han Sanping who took the blame.
This time Zhou Yutang and Han Sanping went to the Magic City together.
The Magic City International Film Festival is also the only international Class A film festival in China recognized by the International Film Producers Association.
Although it is not as good as the big three, it is at least Category A.
Of course, the head of China Film Group was indispensable for such an occasion.
"I'm sitting in this position. If I couldn't bear this, I would have been fucked long ago."
Han Sanping crossed his legs and acted calmly and calmly about the recent public opinion: "Some people only care about their own petty profits, open their mouths, and fire off random shots. They don't understand the overall situation at all, and they don't want to make progress. Now they are seeking for the better." Culture is developing and prospering. If you have time to complain about imported blockbusters crowding out the market, you might as well think about why "Anti-Drug" can earn nearly 400 million at the box office, and why they can't do it."
"."
Zhou Yutang somewhat admired Mr. Han's mentality.
It can only be said that we consider the issue from different standpoints.
When he arrived in Shanghai this time, Tian Ming got the news in advance and personally led the team to pick him up at the airport. By the way, he took Han Sanping to visit Mingjie Company.
"Director Han, welcome to come and give us guidance."
"Mr. Tian, you're welcome. How is Mr. Tian?"
"Thanks to Mr. Han, the old man is in good health."
"My daughter has always loved watching the show "The Voice."
Han Sanping smiled and shook hands with Tian Ming: "The stall you and Yu Tang run is really big."
Tian Ming also smiled: "It's all Yu Tang's planning, I'm just the errand boy."
"You can't say that. You two work well together."
Han Sanping shook his head and laughed: "I heard someone said that they are planning to buy a building?"
After walking around Mingjie Company, Han Sanping asked.
"I have this idea, but the details haven't been decided yet."
Tian Ming and Zhou Yutang looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
If Jiangdong Entertainment bought the company building a few years ago, it was purely a mistake.
So today's Mingjie Company is very wealthy and uses money to smash things.
I originally planned to acquire land and build a company building, but after making several plans, I found that the cycle was too long, at least three years.
Finally, Tian Ming and Zhou Yutang agreed to transfer 100% of the equity of the Investment Management Co., Ltd. held by a group company in Shanghai through bidding.
The main corresponding assets of the subject equity are investment real estate buildings.
A 17-story building located on Zhaojiabang Road, with a construction area of about 15,000 square meters and a total of 2 underground floors, will later be the headquarters of Mingjie Company.
Tianchao's bidding is very deep, but Tian Ming's relationship is strong enough and the management relationship is in place. The total price of this acquisition is about 350 million.
Now it's just a matter of process.
After the transaction process is completed, the renovation will begin directly. By next year, the entire company will be able to move there.
According to China's current national conditions, housing prices in the Magic City are not far behind those in the capital, and there is a trend of further soaring.
This move by Mingjie Company is also to further optimize the company's asset structure.
With the company's existing cash flow, there is no pressure to occupy this building. It can also reduce the company's cash outflow for future rent payments, which has a positive effect on maintaining the company's long-term stable development.
After walking around Mingjie Company, Liu Shishi came over after finishing his announcement.
She walks with wind, very sassy and beautiful.
After getting on the internal elevator dedicated to high-rise buildings, we arrived at Zhou Yutang's office by a familiar route.
Pushing the door open, he was about to say something cute, but when he saw someone inside, he swallowed his words again.
The whole person choked.
"Hello, Director Han."
Liu Shishi recognized Han Sanping and said hello politely. Mr. Han also greeted her warmly. He looked at Zhou Yutang and smiled: "A talented man and a beautiful woman, not bad."
He had been around for so long and couldn't see that the relationship between Liu Shishi and Zhou Yutang was weird.
This compliment made the thin-skinned Liu Shishi a little embarrassed, but he was also a little happy to be recognized by a heavyweight like Han Sanping.
The opening ceremony of the Magic City International Film Festival is tomorrow. Tonight, Tian Ming took the lead in organizing the festival and invited Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Group and Wu Heru, the boss of Magic City New United Cinemas, to have a meal together.
In front of these big guys, Liu Shishi held Zhou Yutang's arm and acted quietly like a gentle and beautiful woman.
Han Sanping has also been friends with Ren Zhonglun and Wu Heru for a long time. They are both from the film and television industry, so naturally they talk about things in the industry.
"Zhang Dapao is going to make a joke this time. He had a quarrel with Lao Mouzi on the set."
"His mouth will cause trouble sooner or later."
Han Sanping had a sullen face and snorted coldly, seeming to have some objections.
This is normal. The nickname "Mountain Eagle" was given by Zhang Dapao.
"."
Liu Shishi sat obediently next to Zhou Yutang, eating melon quietly.
After the dinner was over and on the way home, she couldn't help but ask: "Yu Tang, is Zhang Dapao the boss of New Picture, Zhang Weiping?"
"Well, that's the boss of the migrant workers' national teacher. He's quite awesome."
"Aren't Zhang Weiping and Zhang Yimou old partners? Why did they have a quarrel?"
Zhou Yutang naturally knew the inside story and said with a smile: "The film and television rights of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" were originally agreed with Yan Geling by the National Master. After the movie was released, she would be handed over to her. However, Zhang Weiping secretly sold it to Zhang Weiping at a sky-high price. , it means that Zhang Weiping earned a very generous copyright fee from it, which made the national teacher break his trust, and also cheated Yan Geling."
Liu Shishi suddenly nodded: "That is indeed too much."
During this period, the draft of "Thirteen Hairpins" continued.
Especially after Bale won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, Zhang Dapao became more and more crazy.
Last month's "The Purge" became a dark horse in the North American film market. Some media went to interview Zhang Weiping, and Zhang Dapao said again: ""The Purge" is too small. It's good luck to break over 100 million there. , I believe in Bale’s ability to handle the box office. After "Thirteen Girls" is released, the overseas revenue will be at least 150 million US dollars."
"These two will have a falling out sooner or later."
Zhou Yutang said calmly.
The dinner is just for socializing.
Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi only focused on eating melon and didn't eat much.
on the car.
Liu Shishi was chatting on her cell phone, patted Zhou Yutang's hand on her thigh, and said with a smile: "Tangtang knows that you are coming to Shanghai and wants to invite us for a late-night snack."
"It's too late."
Zhou Yutang looked at the time and put his hand back.
Liu Shishi has been practicing dance for more than ten years, and his body is very flexible, especially his legs, which can handle many difficult postures.
Due to regular maintenance, his skin is quite delicate and he couldn't put it down.
"Let's go, honey."
Liu Shishi hugged his arm and shook it, turning on the coquettish mode: "It's rare that Lao Hu is here, he just finished filming "Snow on Thousand Mountains", let's get together."
"Okay, let's put Lao Hu's restaurant out of business."
The blinking eyes of Buling Buling made Zhou Yutang a little unable to bear it, so he had to agree.
"Haha, why do you keep teasing me?"
Liu Shishi's smile was a bit low, but Zhou Yutang's words hit the point of laughter, and she leaned in his arms and trembled with joy.
The venue for the party was Hu Ge's restaurant. Zhou Yutang had been there some time ago. Business was pretty good at that time, and it looked like it was full of vitality and everything was in full swing.
After a few months, surprisingly things turned out well and there were quite a few people in the store.
"Director Zhou, Shi Shi, Mr. Hu has already reserved a private room."
It was the manager who led the way, and they chatted for a while on the way. When Liu Shishi asked about the hotel's business, he politely offered a rainbow fart: "The business is pretty good, thanks to the photo taken by Director Zhou and Shi Shi, no. All the diners come here to take photos with you."
Money comes quickly in the entertainment industry, and many celebrities have a lot of spare money, so they start investing.
Among them, the one with the lowest threshold is opening a restaurant.
When it first opened, relying on the celebrity's personal appeal and gimmicks, many fans would come to join in the fun.
But when the novelty wears off, it still depends on the taste and cost-effectiveness of the restaurant. After all, there are only a few fools, and some restaurants that are purely leeks will not survive.
Hu Ge's store has a pretty good reputation.
It takes the mid-to-high-end route, the decoration is quite stylish, and the ingredients are good. It is very popular among the petty bourgeoisie white-collar workers in Shanghai.
After sitting in the box for a while, Hu Ge and Tang Yan came one after another. Zhou Yutang hadn't seen Tang Yan for a while, but he felt that she had changed a bit and seemed to have matured.
"Boss Zhou, that movie you made in North America made hundreds of millions of dollars, right?"
Not long after Tang Yan finished filming "The Three Daughters of the Xia Family", she met Zhou Yutang and instantly showed a bright smile.
"How is it possible that hundreds of millions of dollars are not enough for you to make up for me?"
Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed.
"It's not enough even if you sell me for so much money."
Tang Yan sat next to Liu Shishi, curled her lips and said, "I strongly urge you to treat me!"
Liu Shishi faced Zhou Yutang, poured him tea, and said with a soft smile: "This is Lao Hu's territory. He has to treat you no matter what. Your store is doing well, Lao Hu."
"I opened a store in partnership with my high school classmate. I contributed some money, and he usually hired a team to manage it."
Hu Ge waved his hand and said with a smile: "Boss Zhou, don't forget to pay later."
“It’s impossible to pay the bill.”
Zhou Yutang confidently took a piece of dessert and put it into Liu Shishi's mouth.
Several people were talking and laughing, and even though they hadn't seen each other for a while, there was no barrier.
Tang Yan sighed with emotion about the deep foundation of friendship established in "Sword and Sword III": "It's a pity that Mimi is not here. I saw the news. She seems to have just finished filming a TV series and has joined the film crew again, right?"
""Painted Skin 2"."
"Yes, this is a big IP movie project."
"Tangtang, how about you, have you been busy lately?"
"I'm okay. I'm starving to death. I just acted in a TV series. I'm going to give myself a holiday and then join the cast of "The Trace of the Sky"."
Tang Yan felt a little envious and glanced at Zhou Yutang from time to time.
Who wants to take a vacation if they can make progress?
But she doesn’t have the resources like Yang Mi.
Wu Kebo suffered successive investment losses, his listing plan failed, and he was being liquidated by Japanese capital. He was also in a state of distress and had no time to manage the company.
Chengtian culture is in ruins.
Tang Yan also followed suit and lay down.
In the first half of this year, she took the role of "Xia Family Three Daughters" by chance. She had already discussed it with her agent Ji Rujing and tried to negotiate a buyout of the contract with the company. When the time came, she turned to Zhou Yutang and took over her. .
"Lao Hu, how does it feel to act in "Snow on Thousand Mountains" with Gao Ye?"
"It's pretty good. Gao Ye's acting skills are very good."
Hu Ge smiled bitterly and said: "This is the male protagonist, and his behavior is a bit outrageous. I'm worried that fans won't be able to accept it."
"If you want to improve your acting skills, you need to take on more different roles."
"That's the truth. You were much more perverted than me in "Big Shot"."
"."
Zhou Yutang shook his head and chuckled.
Baiwo Sicun's novels have always been famous for their "abuse", which will make readers heartbroken and unwilling to give up.
"Snow on a Thousand Mountains" is no exception.
The male protagonist Mo Shaoqian is a very complicated person.
He is both domineering and gentle, ruthless and infatuated, cruel and stubborn, ruthless and affectionate.
Zhou Yutang suddenly imagined Hu Ge playing Mo Shaoqian in his mind.
Suddenly he laughed.
perhaps.
It’s also quite interesting.
The Magic City International Film Festival has officially opened, and it can be said that it is full of superstars.
All kinds of big-name stars at home and abroad have gathered here, the stars are shining, and the blockbusters are gathered.
The red carpet show at the opening ceremony was also full of beauties, competing in all kinds of beauty.
Fan Binbin returned from Cannes, still the red carpet queen, full of aura.
This time, Wang Quan'an's new girlfriend, Zhang Yuqi, wore a light purple gauze see-through outfit, which also attracted many people's attention.
There is also Miss World Zhang Zilin’s blue-green antique lace dress, which has long legs and little exposure, which is also quite dazzling.
After that night's gathering, Liu Shishi had an important announcement the next day, so he had to reluctantly say goodbye to his sweetheart for the time being.
Zhou Yutang was staying with the crew of "Mr. Tree". When he saw Wang Baorong looking at the beautiful woman, he made a joke to him: "Baorong, wipe your saliva and stop looking."
"There's no saliva."
Wang Baoyu turned his head and wiped the corners of his mouth, narrowed his eyes, and showed his big white teeth: "I am a married man, Yu Tang, please stop joking."
"Really married?"
Zhou Yutang was slightly stunned.
Director Han Jie smiled and said: "Mr. Zhou, Bao Qiang told the media about this when he was promoting "Cai Li Fuquan" last month."
"It feels a little sudden."
"Hehe, it's not sudden. He has been following me for the past two years."
"Okay, Bao Qi, it's quite hidden."
Section Chief Jia also joined in the fun: "Tell me honestly, how did you get better?"
"We just met at an event."
Wang Bao'er still had a happy smile on his face: "Then we had feelings for each other and we got together."
The crowd started to boo, and Wang Baoyu couldn't resist it, so he showed off his affection.
"Baochao."
Zhou Yutang asked earnestly: "After marriage, who will take care of the money?"
"Submitted."
Wang Baorong looked as if he should be happy: "My wife is a female college student majoring in broadcasting and hosting. She is more educated and smarter than me."
"From now on, I'll be in charge of making money, and she'll be in charge of finances, matching men and women, and I won't be tired of anything."
"I think you have a lot of money. Don't you feel relieved if you leave it to her?"
"Why are you worried?"
Wang Baohao smiled and said: "She has already given birth to a child for me. I have found a treasure. I have to take good care of her."
Thanks for the monthly ticket support
