Chapter 718: The Grand Commander sheds tears and kills the first sister

Chapter 718: The Grand Commander sheds tears and kills the first sister

The Spring Festival holiday has just ended, and Alibaba dropped a blockbuster on the entertainment industry.

Together with South Korean entertainment company SM, they simultaneously issued an announcement: "Alibaba purchased 870,000 shares of SM Entertainment through a third-party allotment of paid capital increase for 35.5 billion won. After the capital increase, Alibaba's shareholding ratio will be 4%. The two parties will Strategic cooperation agreements have been signed in the fields of entertainment business and e-commerce! ”

According to the current exchange rate, it is about 4% of the company.

Alibaba became SM’s second largest shareholder overnight.

The entertainment circles of the two countries were shocked.

Alibaba is undoubtedly the top financial group in China.

SM is also the leading entertainment company in South Korea. TVXQ, the boy group that took Asia by storm in the previous generation, Girls' Generation, which is at its peak, and EXO, all have extraordinary influence on the entire young people in Asia.

Lee Soo Man is the godfather of South Korean entertainment and a shrewd businessman.

The two parties had already started negotiations in the second half of last year, but since they wanted to sell, they naturally had to sell it at a good price.

——This old fox even wanted to draw Zhou Yutang into the game.

According to the tone of the media last year, they were all hyping up Zhou Yutang, Dong Ge, and Pony Ma Sanjia to join forces to fight Teacher Ma.

Even South Korea is keen to report on this capital game, waiting to see the entertainment tycoon and the former richest man in China fight against each other.

Although Jiangdong and Alibaba both hold shares in Weibo, most of the time they make money by being harmonious.

But since Alibaba has announced that it will enter the entertainment industry, it is inevitable that it will encounter Jiangdong. The two sides are undoubtedly in a competitive relationship.

This is exactly what Li Xiuman, an old fox, likes. He wants to have both sides and maximize his own interests.

It's a pity that he overestimated SM's status in Zhou Yutang's heart.

Several proposals and planning plans were sent to him, but they failed to impress Zhou Yutang.

In the business world, Lee Soo Man is a veteran. In recent years, he has used his own leather bag company to continuously attract blood from SM, so he probably doesn't have much focus on business.

EXO began to decline after its fourth son returned to China. Hong Beibei, the new generation girl group promoted by SM, is no match for the Jiangdong girl group.

Even if you buy a stake in SM, there are many high-level officials inside, and it is impossible to completely control it. Instead, SM will have to suck blood from the Kodong system.

Of course Zhou Yutang will not suffer this loss.

This time the Alibaba acquisition was completed, the industry was very lively. Zhou Yutang joked with Li Shuang, "Old Li Tou is also making a career, and he has embraced Teacher Ma's lap."

"Cooperating with Jack Ma is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger."

Li Shuang also laughed.

Who knows whether SM sucked Ali's blood or lured the wolf into the house?

Mr. Ma is by no means an ordinary person. He has long been targeting South Korea’s payment system business.

Pei Yun, who was in charge of Jiangdong's business in South Korea, came to the headquarters later in the year, saying it was to report on his work, but Zhou Yutang always felt that it was because of Li Shuang.

In the two days that Pei Yun has been in Beijing, the smile on Sister Shuang's face has obviously increased.

"It was released in South Korea for 7 days, with 2.5 million moviegoers."

In the small conference room, Pei Yun was reporting on the box office performance of "Mermaid" in South Korea.

"Mermaid" can achieve intense emotional marketing in China, and South Korean audiences don't owe Xingye movie tickets.

Although the popular goddess Lim Yoon-ah stars, "Mermaid" seems to have failed to make South Korean audiences laugh. The box office response was mediocre, and there is basically no hope of exceeding 10 million viewers.

"However, the test screenings of "Broken Tomb" were very well received, and 2wbox invited you, boss, to go to South Korea to participate in the promotion."

Zhou Yutang tilted his head slightly, and Ni Ni understood it, thought for a moment, and then said: "There is a trade fair soon, and there is also scheduled drama promotion work. At most, I can spare two days at the end of February."

"Two days is enough. The specific time will be arranged later."

Popular celebrities' schedules must be calculated by the day. For top celebrities like Zhou Yutang, their schedules must be accurate to the hour.

The key is to cooperate with time management. Ni Ni feels like she has lost a lot of hair.

"Ten days after its release, "The Mermaid" has made a huge success at the box office, exceeding 2.2 billion, leading the Spring Festival season, and ranking third on the list of Chinese-language films!"

"It was released simultaneously in South Korea, and its ability to attract money is amazing. It is a phenomenon-level hit that swept across Asia!"

On the working days after the end of the year, the box office of "Mermaid" dropped slightly, but it still maintained a trend of over 100 million in a single day.

It can't be said to be a big hit in South Korea, but Zhou Xingxing's team still sent out the press release prepared in advance.

For Xingye, this battle is enough to restore his prestige as a great director and prove with his actual performance that there is still a ship to carry him in the new era.

For Lin Yoona, it is also the most glorious moment of her acting career.

The box office performance of this movie is enough to kill all South Korean artists of the same generation, and even some veteran South Korean stars combined are no match.

She has now successfully taken off the label of idol and has directly risen to the top of South Korea's new generation of film and television stars.

"Qing Yu Nian 3" has finally started broadcasting in Shanghai and Jiangsu Province.

On the first day, the ratings of Modu Channel soared to 2.02, easily suppressing the audience, ranking first in the country during the same period, and the ratings share exceeded 9 points.

As the finale of the entire series starring Zhou Yutang, the series has been promoted with unremitting efforts for several months, and the number of reservations at Station B exceeded 15 million before the broadcast.

Achieving such results is also expected.

The ratings improved steadily on the second day. On the third day, Jiangsu Province Channel alternately topped the list with a rating of 2.3.

Zhou Yutang once again wore the crown of the ratings king, proving to the audience the value of the ratings king.

All major media are competing to report on this TV series, and hot searches and forums are full of related plot discussions, which have become popular all over the Internet at lightning speed.

In comparison.

Although Blueberry Channel's "The Legend of Mi Yue" broke one at the beginning of its broadcast, the quality is also above the standard line, and it can even be said to be excellent, but compared with "Joy of Life 3", it is somewhat bleak.

[Another king-level drama in Jiangdong is coming, and the annual drama king is locked in advance! ]

[The Grand Commander sheds tears and kills the first sister! ]

[In "Joy of Life 3", Xiao Fan's layout is initially completed, gradually getting better, and climaxes one after another! ]

["Joy of Life" series: the pinnacle of male IP adaptation, "Snow Sword" is worth looking forward to! 】

【.】

The foreshadowing of the first two parts ignited the audience's enthusiasm for chasing dramas, and the Matthew effect was generated. All the heat in the drama circle at the beginning of the year was on "Celebrating Yu Nian 3".

However, Liu Shishi relied on her legs with more than ten years of dance skills to win back a city outside the field.

"Hiss! Do you want to murder your husband!?"

Zhou Yutang lay on the sofa, holding Liu Shishi's slender and soft waist.

Feeling the soft and delicate touch, the fragrant hair fell on his cheek, and there was a rustling and itchy feeling.

Liu Shishi bit his shoulder firmly, making him take a breath, and he was in pain and happy.

"Humph! Who made your ratings so high?"

In general, Liu Shishi is reasonable, but as long as she is a woman, there are always unreasonable days.

This time, Blueberry Channel chose to start broadcasting after the New Year, and the ratings were suppressed. Although she had expected it in her heart, Liu Shishi couldn't help feeling depressed.

The white and graceful swan neck tilted back, and after a gentle and beautiful hum, the clouds finally dispersed and the rain stopped.

Liu Shishi didn't even bother to clean up. When she heard the theme song coming from the TV, she leaned out and ignored the spring light in front of the bear.

She took the remote control and turned the channel to Blueberry Channel, making a small contribution to the ratings of "The Legend of Mi Yue".

Such a slightly childish behavior formed a sharp contrast with the usual dignified and generous, and also made Zhou Yutang smile.

The depression of the first sister should be behind.

According to the Jiangdong data department's data feedback from the two TV stations and the current popularity, the ratings of "Celebrating Yu Nian 3" will basically break 3.

The advantage is huge, and it must not be wasted.

Zhou Yutang's teasing is also interesting, mostly with warm words of comfort.

After all, rabbits will jump over the wall when they are anxious.

If the lion bite skill is activated when it shouldn't be activated, it will be a lot of fun with a click...

The TV is playing "The Legend of the Female Doctor", and Zhou Yutang is watching the new variety show launched by Mango TV on the tablet.

The two of them are doing their own things and occasionally chatting.

They are an old couple. Even if they are separated for a short time and they are attracted by each other, they still have their own favorite things to do.

Huang Xiaoming took his mother to Mango TV's self-made large-scale reality show "The Tornado Filial Son".

Even Liu Shishi's eyes were attracted. She found a comfortable position in Zhou Yutang's arms and asked curiously:

"This show is really fun. It actually revealed Huang Xiaoming's childhood sweetheart's first love. Isn't it a script?"

Preview of the previous situation, using Huang Xiaoming's first love to hype, but Bai Yueguang was mosaiced throughout the whole process, and the real face was completely invisible, but it made people curious.

In this episode, the mysterious first love he wanted to see the most appeared, and the gimmick was expected to be full.

"Who knows?"

Zhou Yutang also became interested.

The barrage was quickly swiping the screen, tagging the leader's wife Qin Lan.

There were also people who were popularizing science online, saying that this girl was Huang Xiaoming's neighbor, and the two had been childhood sweethearts and had a close relationship.

Amid the expectations of countless viewers, the leader's first love, who had been tantalizingly eager to see her, finally showed her true colors in this episode.

"Is she pretty?"

The face-blind Governor Zhou nodded slightly.

Objectively speaking, in terms of appearance, it can only be said that she is pretty.

But the feeling of Bai Yueguang is irreplaceable for the young Huang Xiaoming.

Huang Xiaoming's expression was very interesting. He was stunned for several seconds before he showed a standard leader smile, trying to ease the embarrassment with a joke:

"You still look the same, but you've gained weight."

The people who were having fun all said,

"The leader is a straight man."

"All men are pigs."

"Qin Lan, take care of your husband."

The show was good, and Liu Shishi had a low sense of laughter, so she also laughed.

But it seemed that she thought of something, and asked worriedly:

"Dear, have I gained weight?"

"How could I gain weight? Just right."

"Tell the truth."

Liu Shishi slapped Zhou Yutang's mischievous hand away.

"My biggest shortcoming is honesty."

"I gained three pounds during the Chinese New Year, and I have to lose weight."

Liu Shishi thought about it, and Zhou Yutang felt a little itchy, and couldn't help but gently stretched out his hand to measure it.

The waist is slender, the curves are exquisite, and it is soft and round.

In the elegant and graceful girlish temperament, there is a bit of the sexiness of a mature woman.

Zhang Ailing said that every man has had two such women, at least two.

Marrying a red rose, over time, the red becomes a smear of mosquito blood on the wall, and the white is still the bright moonlight in front of the bed; marrying a white rose, the white is a grain of rice stuck on the clothes, and the red is a cinnabar mole on the heart

No matter whether it is white moonlight or cinnabar mole.

Zhou Yutang wants them all.

…

Naza finished shooting the commercial after the New Year and flew directly to North America. The crew of "The Meg" is expected to start shooting in March.

When Reba came to the company, she happened to meet Liu Huohua and Chen Minghao, and greeted them with a sweet smile:

"Brother Hua, Brother Minghao."

"Reba, you are beautiful again."

Liu Huohua and Chen Minghao did not put on any senior airs, and looked friendly.

They are all old hands. After shooting "Ghost Blowing Light: Seeking the Dragon", how could they not know that Reba is the favorite of the Grand Commander?

Some things are known in the heart and cannot be said. Basic respect is necessary.

At today's "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series meeting and study session, Tianxia Bachang was present and was talking to Guo Fan when Zhou Yutang walked in from outside.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou."

Everyone in the meeting room, including Hou Hongliang and director Kong Sheng of Noon Sunshine, and several senior executives of Tencent.

They all stood up in unison, indescribably respectful, Reba's eyes sparkled, and a faint proud smile appeared on her cheeks.

"Well, everyone, please sit down."

Zhou Yutang nodded calmly and took the main seat without hesitation. Without much greeting, he went straight to the point.

"This year's "Ghost Blows Out the Light" sequel is directed by Guo Fan, continuing the cast of the previous one, and the TV series project is developed by director Kong Sheng..."

Being named by the Grand Commander, Directors Guo Fan and Kong Sheng were refreshed, and stood up one after another to introduce the planning plan prepared in advance to everyone.

"The TV version of "Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Ancient City of Jingjue" should abandon the magical elements, return to reality more, and restore the texture of the times in the novel..."

It is very difficult to adapt the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series into a series of movies.

It is not a problem of special effects, but the whole story is linked together and integrated.

There are many details in it, which are not suitable for the narrative rhythm of the movie, but suitable for telling in the way of TV series.

This year's "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series of movies has the successful experience of the first one, and also imitates the previous work, extracting and adapting some of the essence of the plot elements in the whole series.

It is a pity that the master Yao who provided professional guidance for the movie is gone.

However, the original author Tianxia Bachang was deeply involved in the whole creative process.

Now it is said on the Internet that Bachang sold the copyright after drinking, and regretted it so much that his thighs were swollen.

Loss in the east, gain in the west.

He took this springboard to serve as the script consultant of the entire "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series, and reached a deep cooperation with Jiangdong Entertainment. He also made a lot of money and realized financial freedom long ago.

Also participating in the meeting was Sun Huaizhong, vice president of Penguin and the general manager of the film and television department.

As an investor in the "Ghost Blowing Light" series of online dramas, he has been observing Zhou Yutang silently.

There is news in the industry that the sentimental marketing of "The Mermaid" was Zhou Yutang's idea. He has superb marketing skills but is never arrogant. Although he is young, he can keep his emotions to himself.

He speaks and acts vigorously, but also feels that he can lift heavy objects with ease.

In fact, before today, more of the preparations were done at the beginning of the project.

Including scripts, project accounting, filming operability, and various possibilities for cost recovery.

It took less than two hours for the actual project to be finalized.

The whole process was decided by Zhou Yutang.

He alone carried the entire Jiangdong Entertainment forward.

It is precisely because of this that the scale of Jiangdong today seems a little incredible and truly admirable.

"Boss Sun, I have a meeting this afternoon, so I'll just have lunch in the company cafeteria. Sorry."

"I'll follow Boss Zhou's arrangements."

Sun Huaizhong was not hypocritical, and smiled: "I was watching Douyin a few days ago, and I saw that Jiangdong's work meal was very sumptuous. Today is a good time to have a meal."

It's called a work meal, but it's not vague at all.

The restaurant has a private small room with a quiet environment.

Ni Ni made arrangements in advance.

Zhou Yutang, who had just celebrated the Chinese New Year, prefers light tastes. It happened that most of the executives of Tencent who came today were from the south, so she made an appointment in advance for the chef from the famous Cantonese restaurant Fu Liyuan to come to her house for service.

Both the host and the guests had a great time, so I won't say much.

There was indeed a meeting in the afternoon, but it was a meeting with Reba in Nazha's little world, and she accidentally wet Nazha's beloved bed sheets.

In this regard, Reba can indeed be said to be gifted, and even Zhou Yutang, who has been through thousands of flowers, is amazed.

Watching Reba turn her back to change clothes, her exaggerated waist and hip curves were clearly revealed.

There is a safe in the lounge. The password is Nazha's birthday. Inside are her sexy underwear, props, and uniforms for role play.

Liu Shishi has already gone to Hangzhou to do drama promotion work at Blueberry TV, so Zhou Yutang took time out to accompany Reba.

This year's Berlin Film Festival coincides with the Spring Festival. The award ceremony ended a few days ago. The movie "The River Map" starring Xin Zhilei and Qin Hao won the Silver Bear Award for Outstanding Artistic Contribution to Photography.

This year's jury is attended by Aunt Mei, who praised "The River Map" greatly. Unfortunately, there are so many strong European films this year.

Several major awards, including the Golden Bear Award, all went to films that focus on current European politics, which is in line with the tone of the Berlin Film Festival.

Li Pingbin won the Technical Award in Cannes for his collaboration with Sunglass King in "In the Mood for Love" in his early years.

With six Golden Horse Best Cinematography trophies in hand, and the Golden Rooster Best Cinematography trophy in the mainland, he has now added another one to his outstanding record. He deserves a place among the top photographers in the Chinese film industry.

This is also an old acquaintance of Zhou Yutang. It was Li who shot the advertisement when he and Zhang Manyu served as the Golden Horse Promotion Ambassador.

Zhou Yutang sent a congratulatory text message to Li Pingbin, and Reba and Xin Zhilei were also chatting enthusiastically.

The fate of these two people can be traced back to the "The Banquet of Kings" that Lu Chuan had held an audition for the most beautiful Yu Ji.

Di Lieba and Xin Zhilei both signed up, but were cut in line by relatives and both ran for the same position.

Later, they met again at work and developed into good girlfriends who could talk about anything.

"Baba, let me tell you, before I joined the crew, I heard that I would stay on a five-star cruise ship, and I was quite excited. But after I arrived, I found out that the name of the cruise ship was a five-star cruise ship..."

"This is too funny, Sister Lei, it must be difficult to shoot on the river, right?"

"It is not easy. There was a scene where I had to jump off the boat and sink into the river. It took several days..."

"Brother Hao also had a hard time. For the role, I gained nearly 20 pounds and lived on the boat for three months. I hardly washed my face..."

"When will you come back?"

"Tomorrow's flight. When will you join the crew of "Ghost Blowing Lights"?

"We just finished the meeting today. I guess I will have to train for several months. Let's get together then."

People in Northeast China are really good at talking. Xin Zhilei didn't win the award, but she was very involved and a little excited for her first time on the international stage.

Chatting with Reba, I even unconsciously led her accent astray.

Thinking of the fact that Reba had studied for a year in the preparatory course at the Nationalities College of Northeast Normal University before entering the Shanghai Theatre Academy, Zhou Yutang couldn't help but chuckle.

Xin Zhilei's ears were sharp, and she immediately asked: "Baba, who is next to you?"

Reba adjusted the camera instantly, turned back and blinked her beautiful eyes, Zhou Yutang nodded slightly, and took the initiative to move the camera: "I just told Reba about the script, congratulations to Berlin for winning the award."

"Hello, Mr. Zhou."

Xin Zhilei stood in awe, and visibly restrained her casualness just now, and her words and deeds unconsciously became more serious.

"I remember, you have a schedule for drama promotion, right?"

"Yes, there are two variety shows, and a schedule for visiting the building..."

Being forced to work on the scene, Xin Zhilei was somewhat embarrassed, but she knew the relationship between Reba and Zhou Yutang.

Between besties, that's it.

Even if nothing needs to be said, the admiration and love that Reba inadvertently revealed in her eyes when she looked at Zhou Yutang, that can't be hidden no matter how hard she tries
