Chapter 595 The best of us, creating a hit

At this point in the filming of "Away with Three Evils", only the finishing work is left, and some scenes need to be reshot.

In fact, this drama is not a large-scale production with magnificent scenes. There are almost no special effects scenes, and only the massacre in the auditorium requires rendering.

After Zhou Yutang's role was completed, he returned to the capital in a low-key manner.

As soon as I came out of the airport passage, I saw the very conspicuous green characters "One step away, 12.18, Jiang Wen" on the south side of the T3 terminal.

Good guy, it’s really novel to think of planting grass at the airport as a marketing method.

Zhou Yutang stopped to look at it for a while, and even took a photo and sent it to Jiang Wen. Unexpectedly, the other party called quickly.

"came back?"

"Well, as soon as I got off the plane, I saw your poster, Director Jiang. It was a bit eye-catching."

"It must be eye-catching. It depends on my brother's performance during the Lunar New Year."

It's still Jiang Wen's style, direct and domineering enough.

Today's Chinese film market is developing rapidly compared to a few years ago. Seeing Zhou Yutang reaching his peak, movies with a box office of over 1 billion have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, Zhou Xingxing, etc. are all making big moves. Jiang Wen probably feels the same in his heart. Something fiery.

Zhou Yutang chatted while walking, and hung up the phone only after getting in the car.

I haven't forgotten to tell Ni Ni: "This is a good way of publicity. When we go back to the meeting, you can ask the publicity department to take note of it."

Communicate with the Capital Airport in advance. The monthly price of this kind of grassland will not exceed 100,000.

This price, compared with the price of a light box for a bus shelter, which can easily reach millions, means you cannot suffer a loss or be cheated.

"Director Zhou, congratulations on wrapping up "Zhou Chu's Killing Three Evils". I wonder when this movie will be released?"

"This depends on Director Zhang. After the crew has completely finished filming, we will see the progress of the later stages. It's hard to say yet. I will try to meet you during the Spring Festival."

"Are you going to join the cast of "Now You See Me 2" next?"

"Wait until the company's matters are dealt with."

Zhou Yutang looked familiar to the entertainment reporter named Ah Fei on his badge. Before entering the Jiangdong Building, he answered a few questions for him.

Back in the office, there was another pile of documents to sign.

After finishing the work at hand, it was lunch time, so I had a long-lost meal of noodles in the company cafeteria.

I looked up and saw entertainment news.

Zhang Guoli held a media conference and apologized to the public on behalf of his son with a haggard look.

"He feels a lot older."

Ni Ni listlessly used a fork to fork the chicken breast in her salad nutrition package.

"My hair is a lot grayer."

Zhou Yutang was mixing noodles, and he hadn't seen him for more than half a year. Zhang Guoli looked like he had aged by more than ten years.

The only person in this circle who has achieved second-class merit, Lao Zhang must be a figure, but it's a pity that his son really doesn't live up to his expectations.

The progress of the bet between Guoli Film and Television and Huayi is probably not going smoothly. Zhang Guoli is busy working on various projects and has to wipe his son's butt|butt, which is also mentally and physically exhausted.

When mixed with noodles, the rich aroma of the sauce is tantalizing.

Zhou Yutang saw Ni Ni staring longingly into his bowl.

"you want to eat?"

"I'm trying to lose weight and don't want to eat."

Ni Ni shook her head and denied it, but the deluxe version of mixed noodles with fried eggs and beef made her salivate.

"You have just the right figure."

Zhou Yutang took a look.

Generally, girls with Ni Ni's weight will not be too big.

But she was gifted, and the thin branches bore fruit, stretching the white lace shirt tightly.

The shirt was tucked into her narrow waist, and her lower body was in an A-line skirt. Her fair legs wrapped in flesh-colored stockings were crossed, and her feet were wearing shallow soft-soled bow-tie flats.

This figure is probably the type that both men and women kill each other.

"I can't eat, can you do me a favor and solve half of the problem?"

"Well, if you want me to eat, I have to eat."

After a long battle between heaven and man in his mind, Ni Ni finally followed his heart.

It was just the look of the little tongue quietly licking the red lips.

It looks like a graceful and elegant ragdoll cat.

The meeting lasted until evening, with Jiang Xuezhen mainly reporting on his work.

"The Best of Us" has received rave reviews since it was aired on Jiangsu Province Channel. Although the average ratings of 1.5% is not a big hit, it cannot compare with the momentum and glory of "Gu Jian Qi Tan".

But considering the audience of campus youth-themed TV series, since it was broadcast, it has received a high score of 8.6 on Douban, which can be regarded as a great success.

And as the number of viewers increases, the rating actually has a slowly rising trend.

"Sister Xuenuo, "A Little Smile Is Charming" is scheduled to be broadcast on National Day. Please follow up on the follow-up series promotion plan."

"OK."

Jiang Xueruo was full of enthusiasm and handed over another document: "Mr. Zhou, there are still a few roles left in the casting process for "Flower Thousand Bones""

"You and Director Lin will take care of this matter, and finally bring us the list."

Zhou Yutang took out the customized Tissot men's watch from the drawer and put it on without even looking at it.

"Mr. Zhou, I suddenly remembered that Director Lin still has something to discuss with me." Jiang Xueyuan stood up and left sensibly.

"Well, go ahead."

Zhou Yutang adjusted the time and got up to go to the appointment.

Candlelight illuminated the dinner.

It also illuminated the pure and beautiful cheeks of Liu Yifei opposite her.

Miss Liu, who went to Rome some time ago, also went to Barcelona for a tour.

After returning from Paris Fashion Week, she was busy with a fashion magazine shoot. When she learned that Zhou Yutang had finished filming and returned to Beijing, she had a romantic candlelight dinner tonight.

It can be seen that she is very satisfied with Zhou Yutang's arrangements tonight. She doesn't talk much, but she is very excited to share interesting things in her work and life.

Xiuxian asked, "As a cultivator, we naturally have no choice but to do our duty."

Liu Yifei lay quietly in Zhou Yutang's arms, listening to the sound of his heartbeat.

Suddenly she thought of something, stood up abruptly, and turned to the Jiangsu Provincial Channel with the remote control. Zhou Yutang was slightly stunned: "You are still watching this?"

"The Best of Us" was playing on TV. This drama has a total of 24 episodes, which will be broadcast in the middle of the month and will end at the end of the month.

Geng Geng finally met Yu Huai, and the two were destined to be together.

As for Lu Xinghe, it was destined to be a tragedy.

Miss Liu rested her head on Zhou Yutang's shoulder, watching very enthusiastically, and occasionally talked about the plot in combination with her life experience.

She followed Aunt Liu to live in America since she was a child. The pace of school life there is very different from that in China.

Maybe it is much more relaxed in terms of learning, but students from different countries and skin colors gather together, full of all kinds of discrimination and hidden rules.

"I am very curious, how do you live there?" Zhou Yutang gently combed Liu Yifei's thick black hair with his fingers.

"For a period of time, I was particularly uncomfortable, and I didn't want to tell my mother, so I could only hold on by myself."

Liu Yifei tilted her head and said nostalgically: "So sometimes, I really don't want to go to school."

"I remember you said that you seemed to be bullied by Korean girls?"

"That degree is actually not bad."

Miss Liu continued to chatter: "There are a few South Korean girls who always make things difficult for me. I was sitting there in class, and suddenly the South Korean girl came over to pull my hair and drew something on me with a pen."

"I told the principal after class and called the parents. They were all punished."

Zhou Yutang hugged Liu Yifei tighter, with some pity.

As they were talking, Liu Yifei's phone suddenly rang. She thought it was Aunt Liu calling, so she made a "hush" gesture to Zhou Yutang.

When she picked up the phone, she found it was Jiang Xin.

The two girls chatted for a while and hung up the phone.

Zhou Yutang smiled and said, "Are you close to Jiang Xin?"

"Not bad. Sister Xin took good care of me when we were filming Tian Long."

"We often chat. I haven't seen her for a while. She was auditioning for a role in "The Journey of Flower" in Jiangdong."

Liu Yifei put her hair behind her head and said simply, "Xiao Zhou, you don't have to consider me."

With the success of "Gu Jian Qi Tan", Jiangdong's new drama "The Journey of Flower" also caused an uproar in the circle.

The supporting roles were fought over by all kinds of gods in the circle. Zhou Yutang picked up his phone and glanced at the casting report compiled by Ni Ni.

Jiang Xin tried out the supporting actress Xia Zixun, who was one of the five fairies. She loved Bai Zihua deeply, but could not get him. In the end, she ended up in tragedy, which was quite eye-catching.

However, she had many opponents, including Li Xiaoran, Huo Siyan, Jiang Yiyan, etc. They were all strong rivals.

Zhou Yutang thought about it and sent a message to Jiang Xueyun.

Since he had taken care of Miss Liu before.

It would be okay to give her a hand.

"Ah, this drama is really good. Xiao Zhao is so cute and adorable. The key is that the performance is very realistic, which reminds me of my high school days."

"Seeing their stories reminds me of many things about myself, which makes me feel a little sad. Maybe this is the youth of ordinary people."

"Except for the "Classmates" series, the best youth drama I have seen in recent years is Jiangdong Entertainment."

"The above, I feel the same."

"The bells and drums are late in the long night, and the stars are about to dawn. Am I the only one who thinks Lu Xinghe is pitiful?"

After the finale was broadcast, the highest ratings that night reached 1.83, and the Weibo topic # The best of us # had a reading volume of 550 million, and hundreds of thousands of netizens recalled and discussed their youth.

Since its broadcast, it has been ranked in the top three of the Baidu Fengyun List TV series and has never fallen out of it. The exclusive online broadcast volume of B station has exceeded 400 million.

Zhu Yilong and Zhao Liying are already first-line celebrities in the circle. Now it is just icing on the cake. The supporting actors in the play have received a wave of traffic.

Jiang Niannian, played by Yang Zi, is Geng Geng's best friend. She is a bit of a tomboy. She gave Geng Geng a lot of advice in the play, and then became a hot search, and her popularity soared.

On the way to the celebration banquet, Zhou Yutang looked through the comments on the Internet, and a slight arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Since the response is so enthusiastic.

Then, August Changan's "Unrequited Love: Orange Born in Huainan", the last part of the Zhenhua trilogy, can also be prepared.

He wants to personally create another youth IP hit after "Together with the Window".

"Congratulations, Director Zhou."

"Mr. Zhou, I toast you a glass."

"Red Ling" was successfully completed, and the final box office was fixed at 2.018 billion. Zhou Yutang joined the crew directly after returning from Cannes.

There was not even a celebration banquet, but this time it was made up, and many people were invited, including teachers from the Film Academy.

Zhou Yutang saw Wang Jinsong holding a glass and smiling, and always felt that he was like an old fox.

Since "Red Ling" won the award in Cannes, the Film Academy has hung a big red banner for two months.

As soon as you open the school's official website, you can see Zhou Yutang's bright smile hanging on it.

Zhou Yutang tried hard to talk, but finally did not arrange for the humanoid to stand up. However, Dean Wang had another idea. When the school started this year, he was invited to give a speech to the junior students.

The reasons are very good and powerful.

I don’t know how many juniors and juniors chose film school because of Zhou Yutang.

But Zhou Yutang has always been insensitive to troublesome things like appearing holy in front of people, and this time was no exception.

After arguing with Dean Wang, he said that he had something to do, but Lao Wang had nothing to do - he couldn't treat it as a delay in Zhou Yutang's project.

"Ignore him."

Lao Tian's face was red and he was in good condition recently. He looked more than ten years younger. He found his favorite disciple and said: "You are busy with your own affairs. If you have time, talk about it. If there is no schedule, forget it."

"Teacher Tian still understands me."

Zhou Yutang was somewhat moved.

"Ahem."

Tian Zhuangzhi covered his mouth and coughed twice: "But there is a commendation meeting at the Directors Association. You'd better take the time to come over. It will only take half a day."

Lao Deng would even sell his lover for the sake of his old sweetheart.

The emotional fire in Zhou Yutang's heart was instantly extinguished.

The current chairman of the China Directors Guild is Li Shaohong, and his relationship with Tian Zhuangzhuang goes without saying.

The high-rise building was full of guests, and they drank and drank among each other.

To be successful in life, you must have all the fun. Zhou Yutang did not refuse everyone who came tonight and drank a lot of wine.

Pei Kang was also very happy.

Although "Chi Ling" was a project led by Han Sanping at the end of his reign.

However, the box office performance has declined since he took office. The predecessors planted trees and the next generations can enjoy the shade. The system has its own benefits.

Being pulled to the side mysteriously by Pei Kang, Zhou Yutang was a little confused.

"La Dong, what's going on?"

"I have a project that I want to talk to you about."

La Pei Kang talked nonstop.

Zhou Yutang suddenly realized that the martial arts classic that once made a splash in Hollywood was also the film that made Director Li An famous.

The sequel to the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" project "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2: The Sword of the Dark" is launched.

The copyright is in the hands of Weinstein Pictures. Harvey, the profit-seeking fat man, saw that the Chinese film market was booming and sent people to contact China Film to prepare a Sino-US co-production project.

"La Dong, has the contract been signed?"

"The conditions given by the other party are very good, and I have already signed it."

Pei Kang looked at Zhou Yutang with a slightly excited expression: "Yu Tang, are you interested?"

"."

Zhou Yutang pondered for a long time and declined with a regretful expression: "Dr. La, my schedule is very tight and I really don't have time."

When he was in Bay Province, director Li An talked with him about the sequel to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

Weinstein originally approached director Li An first, but Li An had another project in hand recently.

This IP can be regarded as the golden signature of Chinese martial arts films, but in Zhou Yutang's view, it is undoubtedly a hot potato.

First of all, it is basically impossible to achieve the height of the previous work.

The box office potential of this old-school martial arts adaptation may not be ideal.

The answer to the previous generation’s version was novels by martial arts masters such as Jin Yong and Gu Long. Now the times are developing and entertainment methods are gradually increasing.

Young audiences of this generation and beyond are bound to be more influenced by online novels.

But everyone's position is different.

From La Peikang's perspective, the temptation of cultural exchange projects between the two countries is too great.

Now that the contract has been signed, Zhou Yutang can't pour cold water on him.

I can only mourn for him in my heart.

La Dong, wish you good luck.
