Chapter 760: The gods descend to earth, and the storm is coming

Otherwise, it would be three years to be pregnant for one year.

Zhang Ziyi's agent and assistant really didn't hold back.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Zi Yi, you have just resumed work and may not be familiar with the market. With his current status, the script alone can cost 50 million."

"ah?"

Zhang Ziyi's eyes widened and she lost her voice: "Is it so expensive?"

"Sister Ziyi, times have changed."

"Otherwise, we can say that he is a fairy."

The assistant smiled and said: "That's it. It was just a basic quotation given to him for a script appointment some time ago, but he got a two-word reply: not available."

"With his wealth, it's not just like playing. It all depends on what he likes to do."

"Then... forget it then."

Zhang Ziyi was a little shocked in her heart, and her mind couldn't help but be turbulent.

Fifty million is definitely not a small amount for a celebrity like her.

Her film salary was quoted at 15 million, and her overall income last year was just over 30 million.

After working on three movies for a year, he still can't compare to Zhou Yutang's script.

He was not willing to accept the money that was delivered to his door.

What kind of fairy is this?

Zhang Ziyi thought of the close contact she had with Zhou Yutang at the Harper's Bazaar dinner that year.

At that time, she was returning to Hollywood and was in the spotlight.

And Zhou Yutang is not yet the governor of Jiangdong who covers the sky with one hand.

When she first met him, she felt that his appearance, demeanor, and good conversation all touched her aesthetic taste.

The International Chapter, which I have a good impression of, also has thoughts on developing in that direction.

However, out of reserve at the time, she waited for Zhou Yutang, known as the Royal Sister's killer, to take the initiative, but ended up feeling lonely while waiting.

Later, Zhou Yutang didn't have time for several dinner appointments, and he became very close to his old rival Teacher Fan, so the interactions between them gradually became less and less.

Now that Zhang Ziyi is a wife, all the fond memories of the past have gone with the wind and cannot be mentioned again.

Just thinking of Gao Yuanyuan who was so red that she turned purple, I felt a little bit envious and melancholy.

After pondering for a while, a look of disdain flashed in Zhang Ziyi's eyes, and she finally made a decision:

"Let's make contact with the outside world first. As long as it's a big production or a TV series with a big heroine, we can talk about it..."

"We'll do the operation, Ziyi, don't worry."

The international chapter inspired the idea of ​​gods descending to earth, and Liu Tianxian in the crew of "In the Snow" also encountered trouble.

For several days in a row, the filming of Jiang Ni's scenes was not going smoothly, and the filming was so frequent that acting director Liu Tianchi's words were almost worn out, and he taught her earnestly: "Yifei, what do you think of the role of Jiang Ni?"

"It feels... quite confusing."

Liu Yifei thought for a moment, glanced at Zhou Yutang, and said, "Jiang Ni should have very complicated feelings for Xu Fengnian."

"Be specific?"

"Because of her life experience, she is Princess Taiping, and the destruction of her family and country was all caused by the Liyang Dynasty and Xu Xiao..."

Liu Yifei had done her homework in advance before joining the team, and Jiang Ni's biography was written in great detail.

In the original novel, Xu Xiao is set to be a first-level god of war in the Liyang Dynasty, sweeping across the Spring and Autumn Period and riding across the Six Kingdoms.

The battle of Yu Jinghe defeated the Western Chu soldiers, and Yu Feizi's tomb penetrated the Western Chu barrier, allowing Ye Bai, a Western Chu soldier who had never been defeated in a hundred battles in his life and was praised by Shangyin Academy as the only one in five hundred years. Kui suffered the only failure in his life.

This defeat ruined Xi Chu's strength.

Then, the horse stepped onto the Divine Phoenix City and entered the Western Chu Palace with the sword in hand.

Then he threw the one-foot-long white silk to Queen Xichu, the mother of the little clay figurine, expressionlessly.

Let that beautiful but lonely woman be able to commit suicide with dignity and avoid becoming the plaything of the Liyang nobles.

Liu Tianchi helped Liu Yifei go through Jiang Ni's life experience again, and also helped her deeply understand and analyze the character, allowing her to better understand Jiang Ni and find a better way to perform.

This is the job of the acting director.

In fact, if it were an ordinary crew, let alone a performance director, it would be a blessing if a top celebrity like Liu Yifei didn't bring his own screenwriter and ask for the script to be changed.

As long as the performance is passable, the director will directly shout out.

He would even offer him a rainbow fart and praise him for his great performance.

But Zhou Yutang is so strict.

On his crew, if they didn’t do it right, they would reshoot it.

Even he himself was like this, Liu Tianxian had no privileges, and he had been tortured quite a lot these past few days.

"After the Western Chu destroyed the country, Jiang Ni was brought back to the Northern Liang Palace by Xu Xiao and became a maid."

Liu Tianchi continued: "At that time, Jiang Ni was only twelve years old. Will she never forget the hatred between the country and the family?"

"Yeah." Liu Yifei nodded.

"But she has no choice but to accept the situation. Jiang Ni is a kind-hearted girl. Of course, in terms of character design, her swordsmanship talent is very good. These are all things that will happen later...

At this stage of our performance, we don’t hide our dislike for Xu Fengnian at all on the surface. You can add a little trick..."

"But remember, you don't really hate him, you just use him as an outlet for your emotions in your heart. After so many years, it remains the same as before, and it has never changed.

This is like a seed, planted in your heart, and then the time of childhood sweethearts is the nutrients, and it slowly sprouts and grows..."

Liu Tianchi told her the story while showing her movements.

Zhou Yutang looked at Liu Yifei, who was listening to the lectures like a primary school student, and found it funny.

The original work of Snow in the Snow is too long, and if it is to be adapted into a film and television, it is inevitable to make reduction changes.

The age settings of some characters have also been slightly changed.

But the spirit is still there, and it's still an excellent drama about rivers and lakes.

Jiang Ni's growth curve has not changed, from Princess Taiping, to the little clay figurine serving as a maid beside His Royal Highness the Prince of Northern Liang, to Jiang Ni who was taken away by Cao Guanzi, and then ascended to the throne to become the Queen of Western Chu.

At the end of the battle between Liang and Mang, the fish and dragon drums were beaten, and the scene was unparalleled in splendor.

The two asked and answered questions, and Liu Tianchi nodded happily.

Although Liu Yifei's talent is not top-notch, she is better because of her hard work.

He gave her a role and pointed out the direction. She was really willing to work hard.

Three months before joining the group, special training for the role of Jiang Ni had been carried out.

Including body shape, martial arts movements, body etiquette, etc., the overall condition is maintained very well.

After listening for a long time, Wu Yuze came over and called someone, saying that the fight scene between Jade Bird and the Blue Bird wanted Governor Zhou to see it.

The entire crew knew that director Li Muge's words didn't count, and the governor had to nod.

"Yifei, you and Mr. Zhou are too close."

After Zhou Yutang left, Liu Tianchi pointed it out directly: "This feeling is wrong. At least at this stage of Jiang Ni, her heart is both hesitant and entangled. She wants the audience to feel miserable and feel sorry for your character." …”

"As for your performance, it's not that it's not good. Your lines and other things have improved a lot. A few small actions you added yourself also made the characters more vivid."

"Let me use an analogy. Every time you interact with Mr. Zhou now, it is like flirting with your lover. As an audience, I am afraid that you will kiss me..."

At the beginning of Snow in the Snow, Jiang Ni is in a very tangled state.

On the one hand, she is the subjugated princess of Western Chu, living under the fence of her enemies and filled with bloody hatred.

But on the other hand, she and Xu Fengnian were childhood sweethearts, but they couldn't hate each other. They talked arrogantly and stabbed her many times like a child's play.

The cutting is continuous and the rationalization remains chaotic. The taste needs to be presented through more delicate performances.

"Teacher Liu, I understand."

Liu Yifei lowered her head, her face suddenly turned red, and she brushed her hair around her ears unnaturally.

Can you blame her?

It’s all Xiao Zhou’s fault!

But having said that, she was really happy filming with Zhou Yutang.

Many times, the emotions outside the scene will affect the state of the performance on the scene.

A talented monster like Zhou Yutang can send and receive freely, but Liu Yifei cannot.

Listening to Liu Tianchi continuing to talk about the drama, Liu Yifei's eyes flew in the direction of Zhou Yutang, just in time to see Meng Ziyi talking to him.

Shen Ning's dark and bright eyes narrowed, with a murderous look.

"Yes, yes."

Liu Tianchi's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands: "This is the state we want!"

Look at that man in a green shirt, he looks majestic, and the instant gun in his hand is flying up and down like a dragon or a snake.

"This is really technical work."

Zhou Yutang's eyebrows raised slightly.

Do we still have such talents at Nortel?

Everyone who is a teacher knows that when you stand on the podium, you can see who of the students below is working hard and who is failing.

Standing in Zhou Yutang's position, with a commanding bird's eye view, it was also clear who was working hard in the entire crew.

Even Zhang Jing, the martial arts instructor next to him, nodded: "She must have practiced and she fought beautifully."

Not only is he the martial arts director of the show, but he also plays a part-time guest role as the No. 11 Wang Mingyin in the World, who can be regarded as the early mini-boss in the show.

Connoisseurs can tell at a glance that the airs and intensity of the action scenes of the Blue Bird actor can give people a beautiful visual experience, and they can tell at a glance that they have been specially trained.

The actor of Blue Bird is named Ding Xiaoying.

Governor Zhou is face-blind and cannot tell whether she is beautiful or not, but this girl has a small face, smart facial features, and outstanding appearance.

The blue bird in the play has a cold temperament, but outside the play, his smile is quite innocent and pleasant.

After filming this scene, not only the director applauded, but even the Governor of Jiangdong who was watching from the side did not hesitate to praise it.

"Thank you to the director, Mr. Zhou, and Director Zhang. I still have a lot to improve."

This made Ding Xiaoying, a pure newcomer, feel flattered and a little at a loss, so she politely thanked them all.

I had just filmed an action scene, and my forehead was slightly sweaty, and my face was a little red.

"How long did you practice before joining the group?"

"I've been practicing for two and a half months."

Ding Xiaoying spoke to Zhou Yutang, glancing quickly and covertly.

Seeing Liu Tianxian being dragged into class by Teacher Liu again, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you from Nortel Level 1 or Level 5?"

"Well, Mr. Zhou, please give me some advice."

"Just call me Senior Brother. Have you worked with Song Qian on "Fantasy City"?"

"Sister Qian is very nice and takes special care of me on the set."

"That drama is about to start airing. Are you going to do the drama promotion work?"

Hearing this, Ding Xiaoying was a little surprised and nodded: "Senior brother actually knows all this. I have a drama promotion schedule next month and it won't affect this place..."

"Fantasy City" starring Song Qian has been booked in advance for summer screenings on Mango Channel.

Recently, we are sparing no effort in promoting the show before the broadcast.

The chat ended with Zhou Yutang receiving a work call, leaving only a brief encouragement: "It's a good show, keep up the good work."

"I will."

Twisting a stray strand of hair behind her ear, Ding Xiaoying looked at Zhou Yutang's back and pursed her lips slightly.

There was a hint of disappointment in his smile after his expectations failed.

Unfortunately, I didn't hear Zhou Yutang ask her if she had signed a contract with a brokerage company.

Sure enough, there are only a few girls who are lucky enough to be favored by Governor Zhou like Meng Ziyi...

When Teacher Yao was pushing people into the group, Zhou Yutang specially greeted Lin Liang.

I thought it was just a passable role for a well-connected person. After all, I didn't rely on this small supporting role to carry the drama.

But unexpectedly, Ding Xiaoying gave Zhou Yutang an unexpected surprise.

The several action scenes were all clean and neat, showing a lot of hard work.

No wonder I passed the six schools of Nortel, China Opera, Shanghai Opera, National Opera, Nanyi, and Beicheng in one go in last year's art exam.

Among them, Nanyang University ranked first in the country outside the province, the girls in the theater ranked 7th, the girls in the Chinese Theater ranked 13th, and the girls from Nortel ranked 3rd. They are all talented.

Speaking of the college entrance examination, this year’s college entrance examination results have also been released.

Some are happy and some are sad.

Guan Xiaotong, who has attracted the most media attention in the past, won the first place in the Beidian Arts Examination with a total score of 552.

Zhang Xueying ranked first in the Central Theater Arts Examination, and other SNH members Zhao Jiamin and others also passed the art undergraduate score.

Zhou Ye immediately sent a screenshot of his college entrance examination results to share his joy with Zhou Yutang.

The cultural course score of the college entrance examination was 431 points, and the professional score was 66.37 points.

Not excellent, just average.

At least that's how it seems to Nortel Rongguang Zhou Yutang.

He just glanced at it casually, but for Zhou Ye, it was probably the top priority in his life.

In the past few days, Zhou Ye was particularly excited and even chatted more frequently.

"Boss, when will our drama start?"

“It’ll probably have to wait until December.”

"So long?"

"We must cooperate with the TV station's publicity arrangements."

Zhang Ruonan has asked this question several times in private.

As the heroine of "The Lonely and Brilliant God", Xiao Zhang can't wait to see her appear on the TV screen for the first time in her life.

The urgency is understandable.

But from the standpoint of Mango TV, I have my own plans.

Just like Doudizhu, if Wang Zha is caught in his hand, how can he go out casually?

Every year's new year's drama is basically reserved for the annual drama king.

This is also the default unspoken rule among TV stations.

For example, last year there was a fight between the gods of "Flower Thousand Bones" and "The Legend of Miyue". The dramas of other TV stations were postponed if they should be postponed.

If anyone is not convinced, let's have a head-on confrontation and see who has the strongest foundation.

This year, when Mango Channel had not completed the post-production of "The Lonely and Brilliant God", it cut the knot quickly and ruthlessly bought out the first-run broadcast rights at a sky-high price.

The largest amount of promotional resources have been invested, including peripheral derivatives of the Koto series, which are also being promoted simultaneously.

Liu Tianchi's performance coaching job is really not in vain. He has given Liu Yifei a small start in the past two days with great results, and the overall efficiency has improved a lot.

To end the work tonight, Liu Yifei went to Zhou Yutang specifically to talk about this problem: "Xiao Zhou, don't keep coming to my room at night, which affects my ability to participate in the show."

"What should I do?"

Zhou Yutang spread his hands.

Liu Yifei lowered her voice: "You can do it yourself and have enough food and clothing."

Those who are close to vermillion are red, and those who are close to ink are black. Immortals have come down to earth, and Miss Liu, who used to drink AD calcium milk, has also learned bad things.

Hearing such words from her mouth, Zhou Yutang was stunned for several seconds.

However, he was an old dramatist after all. Governor Zhou's face instantly switched to a look of reluctance, and he said with righteous indignation:

"Did Liu Tianchi teach you this? I'm going to find her. How can I sleep alone at night?"

"Teacher Liu also wants me to perform well, so don't embarrass her."

Liu Yifei held Zhou Yutang's arm, raised a white finger, and said seriously: "Just keep a distance. Distance creates beauty. You can do it once a week..."

"In this case, that dragon robe..."

"What do you want to do?"

Liu Yifei was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, a look of vigilance instantly appeared on her face.

"think."

Such a frank and direct answer made Liu Yifei's cheeks flush with an intoxicating blush, which was like a ray of sunshine reaching her crystal earlobes. She spat in a low voice:

"Then you go and think about it."

Liu Yifei snorted arrogantly: "I won't wear it."

Zhou Yutang was really willing to spend money on Fu Hua Dao.

No less than the $100,000 straw hat worn by Director Chen from Xiangjiang. Zhou Yutang personally invited top-notch craftsmen to hand-customize the costume for Miss Liu, which is even more perfect.

Including the dragon robe worn by the Queen of Western Chu. The style is different from that of Reba and Mencius, but it is also exquisite and gorgeous.

Purely handmade and customized, with gold thread pattern and dragon pattern.

They are all genuine materials and cost more than 1.8 million yuan.

The Empress of Western Chu's scene won't be filmed until next year, but the costumes have been customized in advance.

Liu Yifei also thought it was luxurious, but she fell in love with it the first time she saw it.

As a girl, who doesn’t like beautiful dresses?

Liu Yifei has a large wardrobe at home, which is specially used to store all kinds of beautiful dresses.

The most expensive and exquisite thing is this dragon robe. Miss Liu is not willing to wear it. She carefully keeps it in her wardrobe for fear of damaging it.

After some haggling and pushing to the limit, Governor Zhou finally nodded reluctantly.

Liu Yifei half-heartedly signed a series of contracts that were humiliating and humiliating.

As a professional actress, Miss Liu only needs to think about filming well.

Governor Zhou had a lot to consider.

Not only filming, but also time management, which requires a lot of effort.

Before Nazha joined the group, she warmly received Teacher Fan at the hotel.

After finishing the announcement in hand, Princess Pei Nanwei finally made her debut.

In the original work, Pei Nanwei, the crown prince who is called the Land God Realm, all stood up against the wall. The TV series version has made certain changes to the character positioning.

According to the treatment method of the "Celebrating More Than Years" series, Xu Fengnian is surrounded by many beauties, and everyone is a like-minded partner.

But that kind of vague ambiguity undoubtedly makes people more excited.

In particular, Teacher Fan still joined for free, which is an exaggeration to say that the industry has a clear conscience.

One is eagerly awaiting.

A flood.

A few days ago, Teacher Fan had a scene with Yang Mi at the Magic City International Film Festival. Teacher Fan felt anxious and unsure.

Afraid that the man would be angry, this time he was also unspeakably gentle.

The charm in those eyes was almost like molten honey, almost overflowing.

He raised his head that had been pushed down and asked vaguely,

"I heard that both Neon and South Korea sold the copyright to Gao Yuanyuan's drama. Did it really make more than 300 million?"

"You can think bigger."

Zhou Yutang tucked Teacher Fan's hair behind her ears and smiled comfortably.

Huang Xiaoming and Gao Yuanyuan both starred in the show at a friendly price. The series is not long and the production cost is about 70 million.

The first-run broadcast rights alone paid for themselves, and the second and third runs were snatched up by TV stations that missed the show before they even aired.

Online broadcasting rights are the big deal. Goose Factory is waving its checkbook and discussing distribution with Bilibili because this drama is unexpectedly popular on Neon and South Korean online broadcasts.

Neon and South Korea are East Asian experience servers. TV dramas with a marriage-themed heroine’s counterattack have broad market prospects.

At present, the overseas copyrights in South Korea and Neon have been sold.

Making money is certain, and making a lot of money is unquestionable.

Including the dividends from Bilibili’s overseas video platform, it is not as simple as the 300 million reported by the media.

"By the way, Chengcheng's transfer procedures have been completed. He said he can enroll in school after the summer vacation."

When he sat down, Teacher Fan's peach blossom eyes were filled with water.

The man beneath her just casually said hello that her brother would be admitted to a certain aristocratic college in the Magic City.

"There's no harm in reading more books. If you don't have the talent for acting, you can still find a class in the future..."

"Who said my brother has no talent?"

"I said it, hiss!"

After all, Mr. Fan has a keen sense of business. He noticed that Zhou Yutang has recently made changes in his business in South Korea, and couldn't help but curiously asked,

"What's going on now?"

"Don't ask, you will know after a while."

"Is there going to be any action taken against South Korea from above?"

Zhou Yutang didn't explain much. Teacher Fan drew inferences and looked back.

"Why do you ask?"

Seeing that this man's face was still stern and showed no trace of his thoughts, Teacher Fan felt even more certain in his heart and snorted softly,

"Women's intuition."

Seeing that Zhou Yutang did not answer, Teacher Fan asked with concern: "Is it important?"

"In two days, I'm going to the capital for a meeting."

Zhou Yutang supported Teacher Fan's waist and said calmly: "As for the preparations that need to be made, they have been made in advance."

On the 24th, "Warcraft", which has been wreaking havoc throughout June, grossed 1.45 billion at the box office, and is finally about to close.

Compared with the Chinese Film Market, which received a lukewarm response in the North American market, with only US$47.22 million reported, the Chinese Film Market has become the film's largest box office in the world.

Another film, "Independence Day 2" that was heavily promoted, has finally landed on the big screen.

Aliens are back to invade the earth, and Lao Mei, who has a great character, stands up to save all mankind.

As for Yang Ying, as expected, Yang Ying's scenes were cut, even less than in the North American version.

However, with a score of 70 million on the first day, it firmly secured the top spot at the box office in China.

And Sir Du, who launched the first shot of the summer season, "Threesome" entered the mainland, and its first-day performance of 22.86 million can only be said to be unsatisfactory.

Summer blockbusters such as "Butterfly 2", "Bounty Hunter", and "Cold War 2" are all warming up like crazy. The war is imminent and the smoke has spread.

After Teacher Fan joined the crew, it didn't have much impact.

It was a big scene in the snow, so we were divided into two groups and the filming was done at the same time.

She went to Sun Hao's group first, and the scenes with King Jing'an were concentrated in that group, and the two shooting locations were not in the same place.

On this day, Zhou Yutang was on the set and unexpectedly received a call from Han Sanping.

"Mr. Han, why do you call me when you have time?"

"I'll make a long story short. The ministry just held a meeting today. The trend is not right recently. You have to prepare in advance, especially for South Korean business..."

Although Zuoshandiao has retired, he still holds the title of consultant.

The connections are still there, so there is nothing wrong with some inside information.

But Zhou Yutang knew it earlier than the mountain eagle.

Hearing him reveal the inside information at this time, I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart. I nodded and said, "Well, I know it."

The trade strategy of the three East Asian countries has reached a critical moment, and some forces cannot sit still.

The overall situation often affects the whole body.

I didn't say much to Han Sanping on the phone. I had a meeting in two days and Zhou Yutang had to go back to the capital.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yutang raised his head and looked south leisurely.

I don't know when, the sky outside the eaves has become dark.

The wind suddenly picked up.

Among the dense dark clouds, there was a dull thunder that shocked the soul.

The storm is about to come and the wind is filling the building.
