Chapter 562 The little queen who is a money-spinner and the most popular male god in Asia
The four major masterpieces in the entertainment industry are just a picture of fun.
Zhou Yutang didn't care much.
Speaking of Xie Tingfeng, Ni Ni suddenly said: "Since the divorce of the princess, Xie Tingfeng seems to be a lot more cheerful and lively."
"Have it?"
"It seems to be true."
Everyone was slightly startled.
Then they started gossiping, and the more they chatted, the more enthusiastic they became, and their eyes lit up.
Two days ago, Xie Tingfeng met the princess while watching a show at Paris Fashion Week, and his eyes never left this mature elder sister who had just returned to being single.
He was at a loss and smiled like a young boy who was just starting to fall in love.
Zhou Yutang couldn't help but mutter: "Could it be that the young master of Xiangjiang has some wild dreams?"
"Now You See Me 2" basically continues the starring cast of the first film, including Jay Chou's joining, which was decided in advance and no audition information was publicly disclosed.
On the other hand, Wen Muye's "Manslaughter" has many important characters besides Zhang Songwen and Gong Li.
Among them, the hero's wife and two daughters are important supporting roles.
This is a script written by Zhou Yutang as the screenwriter, plus Berlin Best Actor Zhang Songwen and Gong Huang, a top luxury cast with an investment of 100 million, even if they are playing supporting roles, they are magical resources.
"Sister Jinglei, Gengxi's age is not suitable."
"Sister Wenli, do you want Xiaochun to come over and give it a try?"
"What, Sister Hua, Zijian also has an idea?"
The gods and goddesses in the circle are very well-informed, just like sharks smelling blood.
Phone calls and dinner invitations poured in, making Zhou Yutang a little dizzy.
They are all trying to build relationships and use the back door.
Even Cai Yinong wanted to stuff the little colorful flags that Tang Dynasty had just signed into the crew, but there was really no one else.
He simply pushed the whole matter to Wen Muye and was at ease.
Preparatory work for the two films is proceeding in an orderly manner.
After several movie viewing sessions, there was fierce fighting during the period, and the inventory of several TV series from Jiangdong Entertainment was also divided up by various TV stations.
When a TV station accepts a drama, it mainly depends on the qualifications of the producer, and then the cast. By watching the film in advance, they can grasp the overall quality of the drama and estimate the profit margin.
Generally, producers have to use off-site recruitment for public relations. After all, the TV station that controls the broadcast channels is the boss.
But Jiangdong Entertainment is the target of public relations.
The first round of "The Best of Us" was packaged for 72 million and released to TV Station.
This drama only has 24 episodes in total, and the price of a single episode exceeds 3 million. Ordinary campus youth dramas will never be sold at this price.
But this is a drama produced by Koto.
Chang’an’s campus trilogy in August is now considered a hot IP.
In addition, the cast includes Zhao Liying and Zhu Yilong, all of whom are currently popular.
If you don’t give a high price, some TV stations who want to boost ratings will give you a high price.
Another drama, "A Little Smile Is Alluring", ended up falling to both Magic City and Mango.
The first round of 30 episodes sold for 125 million, and the price of a single episode was even higher than that of "The Best of Us".
It is mainly an adaptation of Gu Man's work, directed by Lin Yufen, and starring Chen Xiao and Gulinazha.
Chen Xiao is one of the most popular young students at the moment, and has basically reserved a seat for the next four young students in the entertainment industry.
The just-announced "Now You See Me 2" has Guli Nazar in the starring cast. With the resources of gods all the way, Guli Nazar is also a hot trend at the moment.
Coupled with the novel theme of a youth idol drama combined with online games, after comprehensive discussions between the two film purchasing departments, they gave it a very high score and therefore donated generously.
Zhou Yutang made a small profit in the first round alone, and the subsequent profits will definitely be huge.
certainly.
The highlight of the film viewing party is "Gu Jian Qi Tan", a large-scale game adaptation that is initially positioned as an S-level film.
This drama had the most TV stations participating in the bidding, all wanting to get a piece of the action. In the end, Mango and Jiangsu TV Station had the last laugh.
Yusanjia's strong financial resources are difficult for other TV stations to match.
Everyone has a top variety show at their disposal, and advertising investment is starting at one billion a year, which can only be envied.
The exclusive first-run broadcast rights of "Gu Jian" were sold for 192 million. The sky-high price of 4 million for a single episode is quite exaggerated. It is expected to win the throne of drama king this year.
Zhou Yutang glanced at the summary report of the movie screening submitted by Jiang Xuexiao, and couldn't help but sigh: "Mango TV has been bleeding heavily recently."
After spending so much money at once at the beginning of the year, I estimate that I spent more than half of my budget on purchasing dramas this year, and this does not include some hidden resource replacements.
"There's nothing we can do about it."
After a beautiful victory, Jiang Xueliang was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Mango Channel suppressed the new year's drama "Dragon", but was attacked by "In the Name of the People" and "Reply 1988". Straight away."
"It's a bit unlucky."
Speaking of this, Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed.
Generally speaking, TV dramas that can be aired in the prime time slot at the beginning of the new year are usually evaluated internally by the TV station as a guarantee of ratings.
However, Mango Channel's New Tianlong was not aired to the end because the ratings were terrible. It only aired when Duan Yu participated in the Zhenlong chess game and then ended abruptly.
As a producer, Cehua has been at odds with Mango Channel recently, and he may not be able to get back part of the final payment from the TV series.
Adhering to the principle of joining if it can't beat it, Mango Channel gritted its teeth and bought the first-run broadcast rights of "Gu Jian Qi Tan" and planned to put it in the Diamond Theater to help it regain its throne as the domestic TV ratings king.
“Mango TV has a lot of money, so it’s time to spend some money.”
Zhou Yutang was quite satisfied with the price, but his attention was focused on an internal message that Zhou Ningfeng told him just last night: "From now on, there will be no talk of four-star broadcasts."
"Has it been decided from above?"
"At the internal meeting on TV drama broadcasting management held a few days ago, the General Administration officially approved the implementation of the one-drama, two-star broadcasting model."
The so-called two-star TV series means that a TV series can only be broadcast on two star channels at the same time, and the number of prime-time TV series broadcasts per night is limited to 2 episodes.
Prior to this, several S-level major productions of the Koto series were four-star broadcasts, which also allowed him to have both sides, and his mouth was full of oil.
After the introduction of this policy, four-star broadcasts will become history, which will undoubtedly have a considerable impact on TV stations.
The TV station’s evening programming, advertising, and TV series purchasing strategies must all be adjusted.
But for Zhou Yutang, it has an impact, but not much.
As long as he has access to high-quality film and television resources, he can still enjoy it.
The movie viewing party has come to an end. Except for "Gu Jian Qi Tan", which is scheduled to be broadcast in the summer, the broadcast time of several other TV series has to be discussed again.
"Searching for the Dragon" in late March has gradually come to an end, but there are good news in variety shows.
"The average ratings of the previous episodes of "Happy Comedian" were 2.69%, and the second episode broke 3. The trend is very stable."
Zhou Yutang glanced at Zhang Yibei's report. This program was the contract signed by Mingjie and Modu TV last year.
Mingjie is now a benchmark in the industry, and many TV stations are watching.
Somehow the news leaked out. After other TV stations got the news, they immediately started to follow suit and created their own comedy variety shows.
Such as Hubei Satellite TV's "I'm a Comedy Crazy", Lantai's "Chinese Comedy Star", Gan Province Satellite TV's "Who Can Fuse the Comedy Star".
Various TV stations strongly participated in the war. They thought it was a situation where the heroes were competing for victory, but in the end, they became cannon fodder.
Mingjie's position as the leading domestic variety show cannot be shaken.
The program format of "Happy Comedian" is very novel. A total of ten comedy teams are invited to participate. The first season has twelve competitions.
Shen Teng, Yue Yunpeng, Da Pan Jiajia, Wang Ning Ailun, Jia Lin
The purpose of the program is also very simple. Regardless of whether you are a successful comedian or a grassroots comedian, there is only one ultimate goal, and that is to make the audience laugh.
Through the voting of 500 on-site audience judges, one comedy star will be eliminated every two issues and a comedy star will be replaced.
After the knockout round, the finals will be entered, and the champion, second and third runners-up will be selected.
Liu Shishi liked it very much. She was stationed in the capital these days because she was participating in a reading of new drama scripts. Zhou Yutang also watched a few episodes with her in the evening.
By the way, I happily read the online reviews, most of which are positive.
"Because of The Comedian, the meaning of Sunday has changed. Sunday is no longer a sad weekend about to go to work, but a Sunday party about to take place."
As an entertainment consumer product in public life, it brings joy and relief to the audience.
This is the purpose of this program.
"A certain popular boy who has always presented himself as a good man was caught cheating on him!"
Zhuowei Studio was probably negotiating terms with her young husband, and it vaguely revealed some news, which also attracted the attention of many gourmets.
After the two sessions, it was officially announced that Han Sanping would step down from China Film Group.
In fact, the smooth transfer of power was completed as early as the end of last year.
Although Mr. Han is no longer in this position, his connections are still at work.
The Wenhua Award for Screenwriters that he and Tian Zhuangzhuang jointly created has spread throughout the industry, and Jiangdong Entertainment has teamed up with dozens of film and television companies in the industry such as Guangguang, Xiaoma, Huayi, Huanrui, etc. to jointly release Reputation and public support will respect and safeguard the status and rights of screenwriters.
"The first Wenhua Award, with an investment of 60 million, is worthy of Zhou Yutang."
"Does anyone know who is richer, him or Wang Xiaocong?"
"You should compare Xiao Wang's father with Zhou Yutang."
"It's really unscientific. Why isn't he on the rich list?"
Most of the netizens are actually people who enjoy themselves and pay attention to how much money Zhou Yutang has, and they actually spent 60 million to get it.
Only the screenwriters in the circle, the real vested interests, are grateful to Zhou Yutang.
The key is that the reputations released by leading film and television companies such as Jiangdong Entertainment and Guangguang are very valuable.
Screenwriters are no longer little transparent people who are stepped on at the bottom.
Moreover, the Wenhua Award is definitely an opportunity for them to realize their ambitions and achieve a class jump.
Things are slowly getting on track, and Zhou Yutang continues to follow up on the preparations for the second season of "Celebrating More Than Years".
The show is scheduled to start filming in April, and he still has to take time to practice singing in the recording studio.
Li Zhien is going to hold a solo concert in Shanghai. When the time comes, he, the boss, will have to go and support his employees.
On the 21st, Zhou Yutang landed at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai.
IU's Morden Times concert was held here.
This girl not only dominates the South Korean music scene with her solo solo, but also has many fans across Asia.
When the news of the concert was released, it attracted great attention from fans. Many fans posted various comments on Weibo @Zhou Yutang: "Master Governor, sister IU is not familiar with China. If you don't take good care of her, at least You have to be a guest too, right?”
"See you in the devil's capital."
Zhou Yutang only replied with a few words.
The ticket prices for the concert are 480 yuan/680 yuan/880 yuan/1280 yuan respectively.
There are several grades. The more expensive the price, the better the location. Among them, grade 1280 is an infield ticket.
I thought it would be a little difficult to sell concert tickets, but they were unexpectedly popular.
There are many South Korean fans who flew here specially to support national sister IU's first concert in China.
Many local Jiangdong Marines who wanted to support complained that they could not buy tickets. Without saying anything, Zhou Yutang directly drew hundreds of infield tickets on Weibo, which was considered as a way to give back to his fans.
After practicing singing for several days, the professional musicians in the recording studio praised him as the reincarnation of the god of singing, which made Zhou Yutang's self-confidence almost overflowing.
When I saw Li Zhien again, the rehearsal had just ended. She returned to the backstage and was still practicing singing. She looked a little nervous. Even Zhou Yutang didn't notice that she had entered the backstage.
"Zhien, relax, don't be too nervous."
It wasn't until he heard his boss's voice that Li Zhien woke up from a dream.
He turned his head and smiled gracefully, but not at all reserved: "Because there are fans in China who like me, and I'm afraid they will be disappointed, so... I'm a little nervous."
It can be heard that she has put a lot of thought into Chinese, her words are correct and her pronunciation is smooth, and her words are no worse than Yoona's.
"Don't be too nervous, I will support you when the time comes."
"I'm really causing you trouble."
As he spoke, Li Zhien bowed again: "I'm so busy but I still have to find time to come here."
"It's a small thing, did you put on these clothes yourself?"
Zhou Yutang felt that Li Zhien's outfit today was a bit funny.
Wearing denim suspender shorts, paired with a white T-shirt, and matching Lee Ji Eun's delicate figure, it looks particularly like children's clothing.
Probably aware of Zhou Yutang's gaze, Li Zhien asked with a little excitement: "Oppa, how are you? These are my performance clothes for tomorrow's concert."
"Well, a girl should look full of energy."
But don't look at this little girl's immaturity. Last year, she earned more than 20 billion won from music income alone.
Coupled with miscellaneous income from endorsements, commercial performances, concerts and other miscellaneous income, he has remained in the top three of the South Korean celebrity list for two consecutive years.
It's like a money tree.
All entertainment companies in South Korea are drooling with envy.
Zhou Yutang actually picked up Li Zhien like a cabbage on the roadside.
Moreover, the ten-year contract was so tight that even an entertainment company with a chaebol background could not afford the liquidated damages.
Because of Li Zhien's feat of milking Jiangdongnan Branch alone, she was nicknamed by fans as the chosen working queen.
Facing the fans who filled the venue, the roar of support moved Li Zhien who was standing on the stage inexplicably.
In the stage name IU, "I" stands for Lee Ji-eun herself, and "U" stands for her fans.
This has been her original intention since entering this circle, to be with her fans forever.
Now his singing voice can resonate with so many people who listen to the song, which almost makes Li Zhien so excited that it is difficult to breathe.
After singing 10 songs in a row, there was a brief interaction time with fans.
Li Zhien spoke completely in Chinese: "I am very happy to hold a concert in a beautiful city like Shanghai. I am also very happy to see so many fans who support me today. You are my motivation to stand on the stage."
"In addition, I would also like to thank a very important guest present. I think he is the most handsome man in the world."
At this time, the lights on the stage suddenly dimmed without warning, and the lights intertwined and hit the screen behind him. Li Zhien pretended to be shocked and looked back.
But on the big screen is Zhou Yutang's debut film "Want to See You", which is so sunny and handsome that it can make countless girls enchanted.
At this point, it was self-evident that Li Zhien was the important guest, and the fans at the scene began to cheer so loudly that they almost overturned the entire dome:
"Zhou Yutang! Zhou Yutang! Zhou Yutang!"
"It seems that everyone has guessed it."
With a sweet smile on his face, Li Zhien made a cute gesture sideways: "I want to see you, Zhou Yutang."
"When love is left as a relic, it is carved into memories with pictograms"
"Thinking about it for centuries is what will be unforgettable"
"If I could go back to the ice age, I would hold you tight~~~"
Zhou Yutang's debut work, "Feng Shen", swept across the Taiwan Strait and three places, and even made countless kimchi girls obsessed with it.
Even after several years, the song "Want to See You" is still very popular.
In the prelude of fresh and melodious singing, fans in the venue began to hum along.
The lights suddenly turned on, intertwined and converged, hitting Zhou Yutang's body.
Her impeccable facial features became more profound and three-dimensional under the stage lighting. She was wearing a white shirt that was slightly open and the cuffs were rolled up, making her look somewhat casual.
This is by no means a handsome guy who needs filters and personality to show his temperament.
Rather, he is a radiant male god who has reached the top of Asia.
