Chapter 706 Top stars tear each other apart, reverse hype
The road show lasted only a few days.
On average, no less than twice a day.
I played all kinds of tricks.
Even though Governor Zhou had the courage that Wan Niu wouldn’t deserve.
But some of them couldn't stand Da Meiyuan's crazy demands for several days.
Now, he just wants to look up at the vastness of the universe and observe the prosperity of categories.
Not only is her resistance to Da Mimi's private photos from time to time teasing greatly increased, but she is also very calm about Teacher Fan's provocative and seductive moves.
This symptom lasted until two days after Da Meiyuan left.
When the road show arrived in Chengdu, a local big shot hosted a banquet.
I thought I had firmly grasped the reputation of the romantic governor of Zhou Dynasty, and wanted to fulfill my friendship as a landlord.
Let him experience the tenderness of Shudu beauties.
The result was naturally rejected by Zhou Yutang righteously.
The reputation of Lu Chuan's "Tomb Raiders Notes" is still declining.
The audience this time is so strict.
Except for the marketing trolls who take money online, normal people will think that the movie tickets are not worth the money spent.
In the words of some angry netizens, after watching this spicy movie, labor and management might as well buy a catty of pork ribs and go home to beat them as a memorial ceremony.
During the road show promotion of the movie, an unexpected accident also occurred.
The problem lies with the film's two leads.
Xiao Ma, the niece of the great director Gu Changwei, didn't do anything wrong, but the two male protagonists of this film were at odds with each other.
In the official promotional posters released by the "Tomb Raiders" movie and the press releases sent to the media, whenever the five leading actors are mentioned, Li Yifeng, who plays Wu Xie, is ranked first.
Jing Boran, who played Zhang Qiling, was squeezed to the last place.
This is naturally due to Li Yifeng's popularity this year, with two movies released during the Lunar New Year holiday alone.
Anyway, according to the source of the photo, this arrangement was for Jing Bairan to have the finale, but this is obviously not normal.
The movie is still in theaters, and fans of the two families are already fighting each other passionately on the Internet after being slapped on the head by "Detective Chinatown".
You said that during the filming, Fengfeng spent nearly half of the time asking for leave, either doing variety shows or doing dramas, which was extremely unprofessional.
I poured dirty water on your head, implying that you were acting like a big star, making a bad face to the staff on the set, and even asked the assistant to tie his shoelaces. There are pictures and the truth.
Every celebrity artist is a commodity in itself.
Their status directly affects their commercial value.
Suddenly, the team around these two popular young men was on full fire.
All kinds of shady materials are flying in the sky, and marketing forces are mobilized to continue to increase the popularity, which also makes netizens enjoy themselves.
Jing Boran's manager couldn't help but posted on Weibo: "How can I say that I have no clothes? We share the same robe with you. We give in and don't tear up. As professional actors, according to the spirit of the contract, we have done everything we should do." .
For the sake of movie promotion, concessions and sacrifices can be made, but everything has a standard. "Tomb Raiders" is not a fan movie, and you can't blame one person just because it doesn't meet expectations."
"Not aggressive enough."
Zhou Yutang watched for a while and had fun.
He didn't even need to inquire specifically, Ni Ni had already forwarded him the news in the gossip group.
It is said that Jing Boran made a lot of concessions for this drama. Wu Xie was originally cast as the second male lead, but was pushed to the second male lead.
As a result, the box office reputation has not met expectations. Naturally, someone needs to be responsible for this.
But who wants to take the blame?
Fengfeng over there is definitely not willing.
He has ended his road show promotion ahead of schedule, joined the cast of "Zhu Xian" directly, and started posting photos of Zhang Xiaofan's style.
"Detective Chinatown" continues to lead the Lunar New Year season.
On the 7th, the box office finally passed the 2 billion mark, doubling the number of "Tomb Raiders".
At the same time, it also set a record for the fastest domestic film to exceed 2 billion box office.
Film and television companies in the industry have become numb with envy, and they all stare at the soaring box office figures with almost admiration.
Since its release, the schedule for "Tang Detective" has remained high. At this time, several pre-recorded variety shows have also been released, making the movie even more popular.
Zhou Yutang received a call from the director of Hui Province.
The top management of Huizhou TV Station was dismissed last year, which caused internal turmoil and reshuffle. It has been in the doldrums for a period of time.
This year, it received 1.5 rounds of follow-up broadcasts of "A Thousand Bones of Flowers". Although it is not as popular as the first two broadcasts of Jiangsu Province Channel and Mango Channel, it has also squeezed into the top five of the domestic satellite TV ratings list.
It was the first shot at the beginning of the new year, and it also brought back a wave of blood to Hui Province and Taiwan.
The director of the Hui Provincial Station expressed his gratitude on the phone and also had the idea of deepening cooperation with Zhou Yutang.
At the National Drama Ceremony held in Huizhou Province in early January, Jiangdong artists won a lot.
First, Hu Ge and Zhao Liying won the title of Emperor and Queen respectively.
A Jiangzuo Meilang from "Nirvana in Fire" and a Zhao Xiaogu from "Flower Thousand Bones".
His popularity exploded and he basically killed everything.
Dilmurat Dilraba also won the Most Popular Actress award, while Yue Kai Xiaosheng Yang Yang was the Most Popular Actor.
The gold content of the National Drama Ceremony is definitely not comparable to the three major TV drama awards, but it is still an honor. It is better to win a prize than to pick your feet at home.
"Xiao Wang still knows how to play."
During the road show, Zhou Yutang came across a piece of entertainment information.
Wanda’s little king held a birthday party in Sanya and had a great time.
Apart from his number one licker Lin Gengxin, he also has some friends in the industry and about 150 internet celebrity young models.
During the day, I had fun exercising with my bikini girls on the beach.
In the evening, the hotel will be converted into an Internet cafe, with more rows of people playing and letting yourself go.
During this period, hundreds of guests who came to Sanya to celebrate his birthday had all their food, clothing, housing and transportation covered, allowing the people of China to see what the magnanimity of the richest man in China was like.
"You don't know how to play." Ni Ni muttered.
"What did you say?"
Zhou Yutang's attention was attracted by a piece of inside information on his mobile phone.
"Nothing, I'm going to talk about what happened at the company meeting last year."
Ni Ni secretly cursed in her heart.
This year’s Starlight Awards at Station B is particularly grand.
Not only are the domestic entertainment girls making a collective commotion, they are preparing to show off their beauty at the starlight show.
A team of designers flew to Hollywood to customize a dress for Naza.
Even Lim Yoona, the face of South Korea's Girls' Generation, has to participate in the Starlight Show to promote the popularity of the movie.
"Is this really a big dog, are you really going to take action?"
The scene between Little King Wanda and his friends was very lively, but it was not as lively as Mr. Wanda. Zhou Yutang looked at the message and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Legendary Pictures CEO Thomas Tarr and his team are about to go to China to complete a meeting with China's richest man. It is suspected that Wanda will negotiate to fully acquire Legendary Pictures."
""Detective Chinatown" has been in theaters for 10 days, with a total box office revenue of 2.18 billion. It is making steady progress and swept the Lunar New Year festival!"
""Tomb Robbers" is a top-notch movie, its reputation has been on the decline, and its total box office revenue is 531 million!"
After ending his roadshow schedule ahead of schedule, Zhou Yutang returned to the crew of "The Lonely and Brilliant God" to complete some reshoots.
The assistant took Zhang Ruonan back to Hangzhou to help her handle the transfer.
Correspondingly, when Zhou Yutang passed through Hangzhou during the road show, he asked a leader of the education department to resolve the matter privately.
It's not a big deal.
Zhang Ruonan studied at the Adult Education College affiliated with Hangcheng University of Electronic Science and Technology.
Not a Hangzhou TV series.
She also answered this question from her fans seriously on Weibo.
Now that I have decided to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, there is not much benefit in studying this adult education.
Zhou Yutang plans to arrange for her to enter the film school, where she will be placed in the vocational high school class. It will also be convenient for her to go to the mountain school to solidify her acting foundation.
This is what Zhao Liying did back then. With Governor Zhou's endorsement, the teachers at the film school would naturally take extra care of her.
"The crew will finish filming at least until the middle of the year."
Yu Feihong was a little depressed.
She was responsible for the main scenes between Gao Ye and Zhu Yilong, but Gao Ye was shaken over by Lao Mouzi again.
She also participated in Lao Mouzi's new play "Big Buddha", playing the lover of a high-ranking official.
In fact, the scenes are not that many, but Zhou Yutang also received a report from the producer there. Lao Mouzi has a scene in a high field, and it needs to be re-filmed, which will probably delay it for another two or three days...
In its second week of release, "Detective Chinatown" grossed a total box office of 2.38 billion. Under the spotlight, it officially topped the Chinese film list!
Moreover, the box office revenue for the day was RMB 42 million, so there is still considerable potential to be tapped.
Media and Internet, various hot reports!
The industry once again saw Zhou Yutang's terrifying record. While feeling suffocated and shocked, they were also trembling with excitement.
"The Governor of Jiangdong is really powerful and deserves to be the number one person in domestic entertainment."
"Our movie market is really getting better and better. It's only been more than two months since the National Day, and the record of "The Thieves" has been refreshed. There will be a "Mermaid" next during the Spring Festival!"
"I'll go, it's true as Zhou Yutang said, the ticket depth of the Tianchao market will be increased to 3 billion!"
"Captain Zhou, you will always be a god!"
Crazy discussions have begun online, and theaters are also adjusting their film schedules based on the film's reputation, attendance and other factors.
Opponent Lu Chuan's "Tomb Raiders" has already shown its decline at this time, with a box office of 578 million, and the single-day box office has dropped to more than 10 million.
The stage was set for him, and the ball was passed into his hands. As a result, the industry expected the film to be a guaranteed Lunar New Year movie, but now it is reduced to competing with Deng Chao's "Bad Angel" for third place.
"Old Paoer", which has been quietly making a fortune, has already exceeded 900 million in box office.
The film schedule was not high at first, and it relied entirely on the support of its opponents. In the second half, it miraculously completed a counterattack at the box office.
Director Guan Miao, who has just finished his road show, has become famous as a result. Although his potential has been exhausted and there is no hope of entering the 1 billion club, such box office results are enough to restore his prestige as a great director in the Beijing circle.
Xiaogangpao was probably also very emotional, and publicly posted on Weibo:
"What I want to thank the most is the audience. Facts have proved that our Chinese movie audiences are very good..."
"As long as it is a good movie, it will definitely be recognized. Congratulations to Mr. Zhou. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Mr. Liu is convinced. There will be no rest during the New Year this year. See you in the world!"
"Director Feng, this is too true."
Ni Ni saw this on Weibo and found it funny: "The movie's box office is not high, that means this audience is not good enough. The aesthetics need to be improved. If the box office sells well, the audience will be very good..."
"This is what a small steel cannon looks like."
"It seems like his movie will be released soon, right?"
"It should be turned on in the next two days."
Zhou Yutang sank into the boss's chair, lowered his head and replied to Liu Tianxian's message, talking to Ni Ni in two threads.
Little Miss Liu has been having fun these days. She took Aunt Liu around Europe and took various selfies.
The film and television industry in China has completely taken off, and several big directors in the circle have taken action.
Lao Mouzi's new play "The Buddha" has entered the final stage.
Chen Shishi's "The Great Wall" was only completed last month and is still in the post-production stage. Soon, "Shamen Konghai: The Great Tang Ghost Banquet" was put on the agenda.
Xiao Gangpao's new film is "I Am Not Pan Jinlian", adapted from Liu Zhenyun's novel of the same name.
It seems that this year has tasted the sweetness. This absurd and ironic reality-themed movie is undoubtedly aiming for awards.
Many actors in the industry are eyeing this pie. There was a bloody storm some time ago, and all kinds of quarrels.
In the end, it was Teacher Fan who won the heroine of Xiao Gangpao's play.
Just talking about Teacher Fan, Zhou Yutang received a message from Teacher Fan.
These days, she followed the crew to Huangshan, Anhui Province, to make final preparations before the filming started.
"Dear, it's so cold, I'm freezing to death.jpg."
"You're still cold when you're dressed like this?"
Zhou Yutang joked.
In the photo, Fan Binbin is wearing a costume and a cotton-padded jacket, just like a village woman.
But with that face, even if she is dressed like a country woman, she still looks unique.
The battle for the Lunar New Year box office has been settled.
Now the industry is watching when "Detective Chinatown" will break through 3 billion.
On LeTV, there is another explosive news that Boss Jia is very dissatisfied with the "Grave Robbers" project.
As a director, Lu Chuan is to blame, not to mention the negative impact of the mutual tearing of the leading actors.
Many fans of the original book went to the cinema for the popular IP "Grave Robbers", but they returned disappointed and poured their anger on Lu Chuan.
Being a director and making a movie, the quality of the movie speaks for itself.
The audience paid to enter the cinema, but ended up eating a lump of food. Who else should they scold if not you?
Director Lu, who was scolded, activated his passive skill during the roadshow as expected.
In front of the media, he burst into tears. In short, it was not easy.
This is a regular program, nothing surprising.
Everyone is numb. As long as Lu Chuan's movie is released, there will definitely be such a scene.
But who cares?
People pay to go to the cinema, not to see you cry and play the victim. You are so miserable that you live in a big house and sleep with beautiful hosts. What is there to cry about?
Originally, as long as he could stand up to Zhou Yutang head-on and not lose too badly, Lu Chuan would be qualified to become a first-line director in the Tianchao Dynasty.
Who would have thought that he would be so lame?
The marketing and water army control of comments at all costs could not save the reputation of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles".
Let alone the challenge, the Grand Commander didn't even try hard, and he lay down automatically.
He didn't even beat "Old Cannon", and he met Deng Chao's "Bad Angels" on equal terms, and the fight was hard to tell.
There were so many people scolding him on Weibo that Lu Chuan was probably too embarrassed to log in, so he actually logged into Toutiao late at night and posted a sour essay on it:
"It has to be said that the aesthetic taste of Chinese audiences needs to be improved. These low-quality funny suspense films with no nutrition have such high box office, while those commercial blockbusters are ignored.
What does this show?
It shows that there is a big gap between the Chinese film market and foreign countries. This is the sadness of culture."
However, Lu Chuan soon came to his senses.
Because after his remarks were published, they quickly spread on the Internet.
# Who is Lu Chuan talking about? #
# Lu Chuan's grudge with Governor Zhou #
Related topics have become hot topics of discussion on social platforms such as Weibo, and even landed on Weibo's top search.
Zhou Yutang thought about it, and then he went on Weibo and posted directly: "Since I entered the film and television industry, I have done a lot of film and television projects of various types. I often reflect on myself and there is still a lot of room for improvement. But some people fail every time they do a project. Do you have the right to judge me?"
As a recognized top Weibo star, Zhou Yutang does not post on Weibo normally.
Now, when he posts on Weibo, it is like blowing the horn of charge, and the Jiangdong Navy goes out in full force.
In less than half an hour, there are more than 100,000 reposts and comments, and more than one million likes.
In addition, all data are still rising rapidly.
Lu Han, Zhu Yilong, Zeng Li, Chen Xiao, Li Xin, Zhang Songwen, Kaikai Wang and other Jiangdong artists have commented and reposted in support.
Liu Yifei, Liu Shishi, Gao Yuanyuan, Huang Xiaoming, Wang Baoqi, Fan Binbin, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Hu Ge and other artists have also successively joined the team and joined the group strongly.
Overnight, the popularity exploded, and the Weibo server almost crashed.
# Zhou Yutang denounced Lu Chuan #
# Jiangdong Navy started to charge #
# Lu Chuan was unworthy #
# The Grand Commander was furious #
# Lu Chuan cried during the interview #
# "Detective Chinatown" stepped on "Grave Robbers" and topped the Lunar New Year schedule #
# Liu Tianxian immediately forwarded and liked it # .
"."
From top to bottom, the top 20 hot searches were almost all related to Zhou Yutang.
His Weibo post triggered a major earthquake in the domestic entertainment industry, and celebrities who were closely related to Zhou Yutang joined the group one after another.
In addition to Lu Chuan and his father's friends, celebrities who were not familiar with him also forwarded and commented.
It is estimated that Commander Zhou would not read it either. He might not be able to see the forwarding support, but what if he remembered it without posting it on Weibo?
"Haha, Detective Chinatown is much better than your 'commercial blockbuster' The Lost Tomb!"
"I just had fun watching the movie, how can I get an education?"
"There is a saying that is very true. Movies are made for the audience. If the audience likes it, then the work is successful. Don't use big principles to constrain the audience, don't kidnap the audience's preferences, and let the audience cater to the work."
"Zhou Yutang has always said that a hundred flowers should bloom. Last year's "Mojin: The Lost Tomb", this year's "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils", "Now You See Me 2" and the current "Detective Chinatown" are all different types of movies. Why can't there be comedy suspense movies? Can only the bad movies you make be called movies?"
"I watched Detective Chinatown twice, and I left the theater halfway through Lu Chuan's "Grave Robbers' Chronicles". Movie tickets jpg."
"Has he been hit too hard and gone completely crazy?"
The hot posts on the forum and the hot searches on Weibo are all Lu Chuan's remarks on Toutiao.
Lu Chuan's personal studio issued an urgent statement in response:
"Director Lu Chuan's Toutiao account was stolen, and content not posted by him appeared. The company team has contacted the platform to retrieve the account and delete all relevant information not posted by the director. Please do not spread it further. At the same time, the company team and the director deeply apologize to the project parties involved in the false content."
Immediately, Lu Chuan forwarded the company's Weibo and said: "Although I am an opponent of Mr. Zhou, I have seen "Detective Chinatown", which is a very good movie. In each movie, the creators have poured their efforts and attitudes, and they are all worthy of respect. Let's cheer together."
The rapid change of face before and after amazed the crowd.
If he puts on a red nose, he will be a clown.
Ni Ni went to Yingdu Building.
After ByteDance moved out of Jiangdong Building, it temporarily rented an office there.
She went straight to Zhang Yiming, "Mr. Zhang, can Toutiao confirm that the message was sent by Lu Chuan himself?"
"That's easy."
Zhang Yiming received the message in advance, pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and explained with a smile: "The background log can completely confirm the specific information of the mobile device for logging in, posting, and deleting this account. If they match, it means that he operated it himself, and there is no possibility of hacking."
"Okay, the results will be given as soon as possible in the evening, and the public relations department will issue a statement to clarify."
"Haha, it's a small matter."
Zhang Yiming smiled confidently: "It doesn't need to be done in the evening, it can be done in the afternoon."
"Then I'll trouble Mr. Zhang."
After explaining the matter, Ni Ni left casually, leaving a cool and beautiful back to the employees of ByteDance.
She knew how to dress up, just this chiffon shirt and pencil skirt LOOK, a pair of beautiful legs wrapped in flesh-colored stockings, and flat rhinestone bow shoes.
The short earrings are the finishing touch.
The programmers of ByteDance were looking forward to it.
Their heads turned to different degrees, and their eyes followed Ni Ni.
ByteDance has been recruiting people recently, and many of them are new to the company and have not had much contact with the people at the Jiangdong headquarters.
However, they have heard that the female secretary next to the Grand Commander, who is vigorous and decisive, was a Mou Girl in the early years and a rising star in the entertainment industry.
It is true that seeing is believing, and she is indeed charming.
In comparison, the few girls in the company who are still outstanding are a little dull.
"Pah! Pah!"
Zhang Yiming clapped his hands, calling back the souls of everyone, and cleared his cough: "Don't look at it, I believe everyone understands what Mr. Zhou means, and get ready to work."
Zhang Yiming is famous for his efficiency.
In less than half a day, the results of the operation of various departments of ByteDance have provided complete evidence.
It was confirmed that Lu Chuan's login mobile device, posting mobile device, and deleting mobile device information were all consistent, denying the claim that the account was stolen.
Conclusion: Lu Chuan deleted the content herself, and Byte should not take the blame.
Oh, the Internet exploded instantly.
"Tsk, now your face is swollen, sour grapes are not good."
"You dare to say it but not admit it, you are so hypocritical, it's a waste of butterfly!"
"Excuse me, you are not worthy of touching Governor Zhou."
"."
As the entertainment headlines of major portals reported one after another, the scope of this matter is still expanding, but to a certain extent, it has also brought more attention to "Detective Chinatown".
The luxurious configuration of Zhou Yutang + Lu Han + Wang Baoqi, plus the beautiful Gao Yuanyuan, "Detective Chinatown" originally attracted a lot of attention.
But movies are not a necessity for everyone's life after all.
There are still some fish that slipped through the net and are busy with other things.
This wave is also a potential audience. On the contrary, because Lu Chuan was slapped in the face, they became curious about "Detective Chinatown" again, and then they had the idea of going to the cinema to find out.
If it is really as unbearable as Lu Chuan said.
How did it achieve both word-of-mouth and box office success, and top the Chinese film rankings?
Li Shuang has been laughing so hard recently that she can't close her mouth.
She has been unhappy with Lu Chuan for a long time, but this unexpected performance has pushed the popularity to the highest level, enough to offset the publicity costs of nearly 10 million!
The most direct effect is that it has given a new wave to "Detective Chinatown", which has lost popularity.
The box office on that day actually rose against the trend and closed at 53 million, one step closer to the 3 billion mark!
ps: Happy National Day everyone, how about "749", have you seen it brothers?
