Chapter 710: Many heroes emerge, and the entertainment industry is shaken

Chapter 710: Many heroes emerge, and the entertainment industry is shaken

Except for the three Jiangdong generals Wen Muye, Lu Yang and Guo Fan who are in the limelight.

Zhou Yutang has promoted a group of very capable young directors.

Lao Suan and Guo Hu have not yet become famous, but Su Lun, the assistant director brought up by Xue Xiaolu, has already become well-known in the industry.

Some investors in the circle took the initiative to invest money and asked her to direct a movie.

Including Zhang Mo, the daughter of Lao Mouzi, has also begun to emerge.

Lao Mouzi is still finishing "The Big Buddha" in Tyrande, but the studio has officially announced the news of "28-year-old Minor", the debut film produced by Zhang Yimou, produced by Chen Xi, and directed by Zhang Mo personally.

From "The Love of Hawthorn Tree" to "The Flowers of War", Zhang Mo, who graduated from a professional school, has solid basic skills and is what the media calls a daughter of a general.

This trial work with a total investment of 30 million yuan, Dongwu Films joined hands with Lao Mouzi Studio, and three other companies participated in the investment.

In the Chinese film industry, which often invests hundreds of millions, it is definitely not a big project.

However, because of her special status, she has received quite a lot of attention.

"Boss, there's a call from Taiwan Province looking for you."

Zhou Yutang came out of the editing room of Vision Media, watched "The Lonely and Great God" and came out. Ni Ni, who was waiting there, stepped forward to greet him.

"A call from Taiwan Province?"

When doing post-production work, Zhou Yutang's mobile phone was given to Ni Ni. Sometimes the secretary even took on some of the chatting business and reported back to him.

Zhou Yutang nodded slightly to the several employees he bumped into, lowered his head to look at his mobile phone, and walked and talked with Ni Ni all the way into the elevator.

"It's Zhang Mo's new play. The heroine is Li Xin and the hero is Chen Xiao. Taiwan Province has the capital to promote Wang Dalu to play the second male lead"

"The audition has passed, but Chai Zhiping received the news and is arguing about the contract with Wang Dalu"

Ni Ni pressed the ninth floor first, and Zhou Yutang heard the whole story.

Wang Dalu is from Chai Zhiping's agency Qunxing Ruizhi.

Because "My Girlhood" was a big hit last year, it took up a large part of Ke's basic traffic base.

Now he is considered the most popular young actor in Taiwan Province. Chai Zhiping saw that he had brought out a cash cow, so of course he had to squeeze its value.

But Wang Dalu himself is a rich second-generation, a bit like the bankrupt version of Huang Zitao. Now that he has taken off, how can he be willing to work for you?

After the Golden Horse Awards, he unilaterally announced the termination of the cooperation relationship with his old employer Qunxing Ruizhi.

Wang Dad also used his own connections to take over the big pie of Jackie Chan's movie "Railroad Tigers" for his son, and then fought with Chai Zhiping, all kinds of quarrels.

This person's name is correct, Zhou Yutang has some impression of him.

But it is limited to an impression.

Too many people try every means to get in touch with each other and get on Jiangdong's boat.

In this regard, Zhou Yutang didn't take it seriously. He lowered his head to reply to Nazha's message and casually said: "Notify the director team and change people."

This kind of artist with contractual interests is a time bomb.

It's hard to say, the rivals will tear each other apart and reveal some explosive news, which will directly affect the entire project.

Without Wang Dalu, there are many young actors waiting to rise in the mainland, and their conditions are no worse than his.

Maybe even the popular young actor from Taiwan Province doesn't know.

Just because Zhou Yutang said something casually, this resource that was not bad for him became a dream bubble

There is less than half a month left before the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Monkey.

CCTV Spring Festival Gala is a hot topic among netizens. Recently, after two rehearsals without audience and makeup, an accident suddenly occurred again.

There was originally a duet song program of Princess Bai of Nihuang and Prince Kai Kai, but they received a notice to cancel it.

There are 40 programs in this year's Spring Festival Gala, including 8 language programs.

There were only 4 reviews last year, but this year's language programs have 7 reviews. The strictness is so strict that it makes people's scalps numb.

Shen Teng and Mary's programs were also rejected, including Yue Yunpang of Deyunse, who also fell during the review.

On the contrary, the skit that Guan Xiaotong performed with Ma Tianyu and Guo Donglin miraculously won the resurrection match, which immediately caused an uproar.

Even Reba was gossiping privately, and asked Zhou Yutang in a private chat: "Brother, she also took the initiative to add me on WeChat. People say that she has a strong background. Is it true?"

"Who else has a deeper background than you?"

Zhou Yutang smiled and said: "Do your own thing well, and the Starlight Awards will be coming soon."

Background, of course there is.

After all, my grandfather is a registered member of the Quyi Association and a veteran in the entertainment industry who participated in the delegation to visit the Northern Dynasty twice.

Both parents are veteran actors in the circle. Such an acting family may not be conspicuous, but in fact, they have deep connections and resources.

That's why Guan Xiaotong was able to star in Chen Shishi's "The Promise" at the age of four and a half, and also appeared in the movie of Little Cannon.

Last year, the popular TV series "One Servant and Two Masters" made her win the Most Beloved New Actress at the National Drama Festival.

Now she is directly recommended to the Spring Festival Gala.

As a freshman who applied for the Beijing Film Academy this year, Beijing Circle Gege has attracted much attention, but she is not inferior to the new Pisces girl Zhou Ye.

This year is the first Starlight Awards held by B Station. Since the official list of celebrity guests was announced in advance, the popularity is very high.

"Wow, the Grand Commander is here in person, Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi are both here, aren't you afraid of a fight?"

"Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Guli Nazha, Dilireba, Zhang Tianai, Li Xin, Chen Yao, Chen Yuqi, Zhang Yuqi, Jin Chen, Song Tie, my God, there are so many beautiful female stars."

"You also have to be the governor and know how to play."

"I can't imagine how much fun Governor Zhou has in private."

Rehearsal photos of various female celebrities at the Starlight Show were released, accounting for half of the entertainment hot searches, and making netizens full.

Entering its fourth week, the single-day box office of "Tang Detective" is still floating around 20 million, and the total box office continues to rise.

Nazha has been abroad for several months.

In the past few months, except for domestic business announcements, basically all of them were abroad.

After integrating into the foreign language environment, my English level improved by leaps and bounds.

During this time, I also took the diving certification exam.

Zhou Yutang was naturally very considerate of his god-sister and planned to give her a holiday during the Chinese New Year.

I went home to see my family. After all, Nazha’s father was in poor health. Nazha was also very excited and prepared to dominate the crowd at the Starlight Awards at Station B.

On the 24th, Zhou Yutang arrived in Shanghai.

The annual meetings of several companies were held one after another, and the Tang people were rectified by the way.

In the private room of the Peace Hotel, a group of shareholders from the Tang Dynasty stood up collectively, their faces beaming with joy, and they applauded like thunder.

The top tycoon in the Chinese entertainment industry, the Governor of Jiangdong with a net worth of hundreds of billions, such a great figure in domestic entertainment stood in front of them.

"In the future, Shi Shi can be more involved in the company's operations."

With such a simple but domineering sentence, Zhou Yutang pushed Liu Shishi to the top and everything went smoothly without anyone objecting.

"Mr. Zhou is right. I have long felt that Shi Shi has a talent for management."

"Yes, now Tang people have to keep up with the aesthetics of the new generation of audiences."

“Shi Shi can inject vitality into our company.”

"The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. We must look forward."

The last words were spoken by director Li Guoli to comfort Cai Yinong.

He understood his old partner's need for control and was worried that she might not be able to accept the reality.

Especially after the "Qin Shi Mingyue" project was thwarted and she was stabbed in the back by Jiang Jingfu, whom she felt was very important, she felt a little discouraged.

Unexpectedly.

Lao Cai didn't feel any regret or loss at all, but instead beamed with joy.

She was the one who brought Liu Shishi out. After more than ten years of friendship, their relationship was almost like that of a biological sister.

If Liu Shishi could make the cake bigger in his hands, it would be equivalent to everyone killing each other. Cai Yinong even had a happy smile on his face.

"Congratulations Shi Shi, you will be my boss from now on."

Hu Ge, the first brother of the Tang Dynasty who had just finished the Spring Festival Gala, cheered.

"Congratulations to Sister Shi Shi."

Song Tie, who was newly signed to the Tang Dynasty, smiled like a flower. He quickly glanced at Liu Shishi, who was holding Zhou Yutang's arm, and sighed in his heart.

If you can't sign with Jiangdong Entertainment, it would be great if you can sign with Tangren Film and Television.

Jin Daxi glanced at Song Tie, forced a smile on his face, and also congratulated Liu Shi.

Everyone has different thoughts.

Liu Shishi, who rarely experienced such scenes, had a slight smile on his gentle and beautiful face, and suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

These shareholders unanimously supported her entirely because of the powerful man standing beside her.

His eyes fell on Zhou Yutang, who was standing firmly beside him.

As if he had a tacit understanding, Zhou Yutang soothed and patted the back of Liu Shishi's hand, stood up and said, "Thank you for your support. We will make the company bigger together in the future. I'd like to toast to you all."

"bite!"

The light touch of the wine glass clinked, and the rim of the glass flashed with the overlapping shadow of red wine and warm lights.

"Lao Wang, President of Wanda Group, met with the top executives of Legendary Pictures at the Wanda Sofitel Hotel and agreed that Wanda would acquire Legendary Pictures in the United States for no more than US$3.5 billion in cash (approximately 23 billion yuan). The Board of Directors of Legendary Pictures Chairman and CEO Thomas Tull will remain in office!”

Just after coming out of Mingjie's headquarters and on his way to the Shanghai Circle Dinner, Zhou Yutang received a piece of news that shocked the entertainment industry.

"I really let Lao Wang negotiate it."

Both Tian Ming and Zhou Yutang were a little moved.

The outside world may not know, but they are at the top of the entertainment industry, so they naturally have some inside information.

As early as 2012, Wanda acquired AMC, America’s second largest theater chain, for US$2.6 billion.

Later, Lao Wang was not satisfied with this. In order to enhance Wanda's voice in the global film market, he targeted Hollywood film and television giants.

It was impossible to sell Six Nature in Hollywood, so they set their sights on Legendary Pictures.

Legendary may not be as famous as the six major Hollywood film companies, but it is by no means an ordinary person. It has a good relationship between Warner and Universal, and even in Hollywood, it is also a prince.

Just listen to the blockbusters produced by Legendary Pictures, such as the "Batman" series, "Inception", "The Hangover", "Jurassic World", "300: Rise of an Empire", "Pacific Rim", "Superman" ：Man of Steel》etc.

Both are very influential on a global scale.

"Wanda wants to enter the film industry in an all-round way. Legendary Pictures' thousands of IP intellectual property rights are Wanda's treasures. In the future, they will become a huge life for the entire tourism industry or children's entertainment industry, realizing the continuation of film products."

"Perhaps in the near future, we may acquire a so-called large entertainment company or even an entertainment group to strengthen our voice in the global film industry."

Zhou Yutang and Tian Ming were sitting in the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz, watching Lao Wang's impassioned speech at the press conference on the screen.

"Integrating Wanda's film production, theater chain, and distribution industry chains into one place, Boss Xu is not as bold as Lao Wang."

Tian Ming smiled and said: "It seems that Legend has a version of Poet Chen's "The Great Wall"? What other projects are there?"

"Warcraft."

Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed: "Now, the entertainment industry should explode."

Indeed, as he expected, a major earthquake had occurred in the Chinese entertainment industry.

The super blockbuster "The Great Wall" co-produced by China and the United States is a hit, and the movie "Warcraft" adapted from the Blizzard Entertainment game is even more popular IP in the world.

After Azu gave up, he settled in Los Angeles, North America, and took on this project to play an orc warlock.

There are countless fans of "World of Warcraft" in China. The industry's evaluation of "Warcraft", a global super IP, is the ultimate king against "Fast 7"!

The richest man in China made extraordinary moves, which caused a huge earthquake in the entertainment circles of both countries.

Not only did it hit the headlines of China Entertainment, it was even reported in Hollywood.

After two years of negotiations, the deal was finally settled.

This is not a shareholding, but a wholly-owned acquisition.

Wanda’s acquisition of Legendary Pictures is Wanda’s second largest acquisition.

This is also the first time that a Chinese-funded enterprise controls a heavyweight Hollywood production company, which is of far-reaching significance.

In addition to Jiangdong Entertainment, which is helmed by Zhou Yutang, another giant in the entertainment industry was born.

Everyone inside and outside the circle was in an uproar.

"It's such a big deal!"

Huayi's boss, Mr. Wang, was busy at the company's annual meeting. He received the news with a complicated expression.

The company executives all looked surprised and started talking loudly.

In terms of size, Huayi has been gradually distanced from Jiangdong in recent years.

With the stock market crash this year, Mingjie's stock price has fluctuated and failed to reach the 100-billion mark. However, with its leading status in variety shows and the reputation of Jiangdong Governor, investors' confidence is still there and the basic market has been stabilized.

However, after Huayi's dream of reaching 100 billion yuan was shattered, its stock price plummeted.

It wasn't until Guan Miao and Feng Xiaogang's New Year's blockbuster "Old Paoer" was released that the decline was somewhat restored.

Now Wanda has stepped on it, trampled through the Tianchao entertainment circle, and stepped on Huayi's head, becoming a super giant that can be compared with Jiangdong Entertainment.

"When will Ye Ning come over?"

"The reply from him means that he will be able to join the company after the year at the latest."

The night is already deep.

Princess Peacock walked into the study and thoughtfully put a piece of clothing on her husband who was still working: "Old Yu, it's cold at night, don't catch a cold."

Ever since the news about Wanda came out during the day, Fatty Yu seemed to have been stimulated and entered a hyperactive mode, full of energy.

Even Princess Peacock, who had specially put on a slightly sexy silk nightgown and still retained her charm, turned a blind eye and touched the beautiful woman's thigh and said,

"You go to sleep first, and I'll look at the content of tomorrow's speech."

"Don't work too hard, your health is important."

Gently rubbing the man's broad and soft shoulders with her hands, Princess Peacock said softly: "Old Wang has made such a big noise this time, what impact will it have on us?"

"Hey, it doesn't matter."

Fatty Yu's round face glowed red: "The cake is so big, can Zhou Yutang eat it by himself? Starting from tomorrow, the entertainment industry will be different."

The next day.

Bona held an announcement about next year’s film list and made several official announcements.

""Macau 3" produced by Bona and Moon Entertainment, produced by Wang Jing and directed by Liu Weiqiang, starring Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau, Zhang Xueyou, Zhang Jiahui, Li Yuchun, Liu Jialin, etc., will be released for the Spring Festival soon!"

"Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, the first 3D/4K/120 frame war drama blockbuster, co-produced by Sony, Bona, and China Film and directed by director Li An, has officially been completed and will hit the global film market next year! "

"The Sword of the Third Young Master" directed by Er Dongsheng, and the literary film "July and Ansheng" jointly produced by Bona, China Film Group, and Alibaba Pictures, produced and supervised by director Chen Kexin, are currently being filmed. , is expected to hit the Chinese film market next year.

In addition, Director Chen has obtained Li Na's authorization, that is, the movie "Li Na Biography" will be included in Chen Kexin's filming plan in the next few years! "

On the day of the press conference, media gathered in the industry.

Chairman of Bona, Fatty Yu, pointed out Jiangshan and scolded Fang Qiu: "Bona will reach a five-year cooperation agreement with directors Li An, Chen Kexin and Xu Anhua."

On the same day, Li An, Xu Anhua, Chen Kexing, Er Dongsheng and other major directors in the industry collectively supported him.

Liu Tianwang, Zhou Runfa, Lin Gengxin, Yuan Chan, Tong Yao, Li Fei'er, Jiang Yiyan and other stars shined together, and the scene was huge.

Suddenly, Bona stole the show because Fatty didn't let Lao Wang feel lonely.

"Fatty Yu has integrated the resources of Hong Kong and wants to do something big?"

Zhou Yutang has just finished reviewing the progress of MiHoYo's project and is preparing to attend the annual meeting of Star Games.

Li Shuang even sent a special message: "Yu Tang, why don't we also announce the film list in advance?"

"Sister Shuang, according to plan, he will fight his, and we will fight ours."

Governor Zhou still sat firmly on Diaoyutai and calmly replied to Lin Yuner's message.

With Koto's background, there is no need to rely on these to attract the audience's attention.

SNSD's schedule is extremely busy. They were still promoting "Mermaid" a few days ago. Yesterday they flew back to South Korea. Tomorrow they will come to China to participate in Station B's Starlight Awards.

It also includes Zhang Yuqi, another female star of "Mermaid", who also signed up for the Starlight Show.

The latest news came from Zou Zhongyan. The global box office of "The Conjuring 2" has exceeded 300 million US dollars.

Other countries are still releasing the film one after another. The box office estimate made by the data department is about 350 million US dollars.

The screenwriter team is working day and night to develop the entire Conjuring universe series of stories.

"Damien is expected to complete the filming of "La La Land" this week..."

Even in Hollywood, musicals are niche movies.

But because it is Zhou Yutang's project, it has attracted a lot of attention in Hollywood.

After all, he is a god who has never lost, and many people are waiting to see the quality of this movie.

"Everything is going according to plan."

Zhou Yutang nodded slightly and cared about another project: "Has the start time of "The Meg" been determined?"

"At least we have to wait until April."

"Take your time."

Zhou Yutang flipped through the detailed report submitted by Zou Zhongyan and asked casually: "By the way, Sister Zou, how is Mr. Zou's health?"

Kong Gezi and the special effects team of Vision Media have already connected with the top special effects team in Hollywood.

According to the feedback from the other side, Kong Gezi did not hold back. For this kind of blockbuster, the special effects plan is often made before the filming of the movie.

"Not bad."

Zou Zhongyan couldn't help sighing softly: "But after all, I am old, and my health is getting worse every year."

Zou Wenhuai was a giant in the Hong Kong film industry in the last century. He once stirred up the storm in Hollywood, but he could not resist the long years.

"I will attend this year's Academy Awards and go to see Mr. Zou then."

"Father must be very happy. I often hear him talking about you when I talk to him. I just heard him say that your "Detective Chinatown" was a big hit at the box office last night."

"Haha."

Zhou Yutang chuckled and said, "Mr. Zou is old but his heart is not old."

The martyrs are still ambitious in their old age.

Some people are probably born to be in the film industry.
