China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 145 Green clothes and red sleeves, crazy drama

Whoa!
Zhou Yutang leaned on the sofa seat with a casual posture.

He admired the beauty in Tsing Yi holding a small teapot with an ancient charm and making tea for him gracefully and skillfully.

The beauty in Tsing Yi has a smooth forehead, a straight nose, and fair cheeks, delicate and beautiful.

Especially when she was concentrating on making tea, her back was straight and her curves were graceful, and her whole person was full of an elegant and calm charm.

Zhou Yutang finally understood why ancient people liked red sleeves to add fragrance and grind ink with bare hands.

Watching beauties doing things together is also a kind of visual enjoyment, which can at least make people feel happy.

"Okay, let's have a taste."

Zeng Li finished a set of procedures, rolled up his sleeves and smiled.

"good."

Zhou Yutang raised the tea cup and shook it slightly.

The tea is golden, clear and bright, with a rich aroma.

Then take a small sip. It is mellow in the mouth, but fresh and sweet. The tea soup rolls back and forth in your mouth, and you can feel the unique fragrance of Tieguanyin reverberating in your mouth.

Zhou Yutang is a realist who only wants to make progress. He is not interested in such arty things as drinking tea and reciting poems.

But Zeng Li likes to drink tea. Under her influence, she also loves Wujiwu and has some insights into tea tasting.

"Where did you get the tea? You can't buy it in the market."

Seeing Zhou Yutang's satisfied expression, Zeng Li pursed her lips and smiled.

I sat down next to him, quite contented.

"I got it from Mr. Han."

Zhou Yutang sipped tea carefully with one hand, and the other familiar hand fell on Zeng Li's waist.

The product produced by Mr. Han is indeed a high-quality product. I will order it next time.

"You've taken it several times. Does Mr. Han have no objection to you?"

"Mr. Han is a very nice person. Seeing that I am a student and can't afford tea, he gave me some tea. Isn't this reasonable?"

"Pfft!"

Zeng Li couldn't help but chuckle, but she felt sweet in her heart.

Needless to say, she also knew the reason.

Zhou Yutang actually prefers drinking iced Coke to drinking tea, all for the tea he wants.

Thinking of this, Zeng Li rested her head on Zhou Yutang's shoulder: "The company has hired a lot of people recently. How is the funding situation? Do you want me to take over some commercial performances?"

She is such a simple woman.

As long as Zhou Yutang is good, then she will be happy.

"No, things are different now, Sister Li."

Zhou Yutang felt a little touched, put down the tea cup, hugged the beautiful woman in Tsing Yi, rested his chin on her shoulder and rubbed it gently.

Although Zeng Li is nominally the first sister of Jiangdong, her career planning ability is not very good and she is just a hard-working part-time worker.

Normally, he completes the company's schedule for him. He has to drink tea, go shopping and travel with his best friends, and he doesn't pay much attention to the management of Zhou Yutang's company.

She knew that Zhou Yutang made a lot of money last year, but she also knew the hidden rules of the film and television industry. Some money would take a year and a half to arrive.

Since the beginning of this year, Jiangdong Studio has transformed into an entertainment company, recruiting people, and is also negotiating with Huayi Company for a film project worth tens of millions. Zeng Li was a little worried about the financial pressure, so she asked this question.

"It's best not to make too many announcements in the first half of the year. I want to reward myself for relaxing."

"."

Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed: "Sister Li, as long as you are happy."

If it were a woman like Yang Mi with a strong ambition, after the explosion, the announcement would definitely be postponed to next year.

Zeng Li also has announcements, but they are all carefully selected high-quality announcements. She doesn't want to work too hard to make money.

Typical mentality of becoming rich and settling down.

"Eh, that's right."

Zeng Li found a comfortable position in his arms and asked, "I heard that Zhao Yanzi really wanted to do this project, but you rejected him?"

"Yes, I have made several dinner appointments with my trustee. The copyright for the movie "To Our Perishable Youth" belongs to the studio. We cooperate with Huayi and leave it to the studio for preparation."

"The cost is about 3000 million. The studio will get 40% of the share, Huayi will get 30%, China Film and Yinghuang Group also participated in the investment."

Zhou Yutang told Zeng Li some work matters, but his hands began to become dishonest.

"Don't move."

Zeng Li gently slapped Zhou Yutang's rebellious hand away: "How about your movie "The Founding of the People's Republic of China"? I just saw the news and heard that more than 180 top stars in the industry all starred in it for free."

"The filming will start in two days. I have brought all the information."

Zhou Yutang pointed to a small stack of information placed on the coffee table.

These were all the information he had asked to collect about the character Kong Lingkan, and he was prepared to do research in advance.

In his opinion, there is no role, no big or small, no role, no importance.

Even if you are playing a small role, you need to understand the background and specific personality of the character in advance.

Kong Lingkan was the eldest son of Kong Xiangxi, one of the four major families in the Republic of China.

His aesthetic taste for women made Zhou Yutang feel very kind.
This Mr. Kong prefers mature ladies.

Logically speaking, someone who was born in the Kong family could definitely be regarded as a top wealthy man in that era.

Any woman you want is at your fingertips.

But he happened to fall in love with his nominal aunt, Zhang Yiru, the sister of his uncle Song Ziwen's wife.

The Kong and Song families were devastated by this, and the couple broke up abruptly.

As a result, Kong Lingkan gave his father and mother another big surprise.

When he was 23 years old, he decided to go abroad and marry a beautiful woman who was more than ten years older than him and was born in a wealthy family.

Kong Xiangxi and Song Ailing almost fainted at home.

However, Kong Lingkan fell in love with that beautiful woman and moved to the United States. He had no heirs for the rest of his life, and finally stayed together for the rest of his life.

"Master Kong is such a damn talent."

Zhou Yutang couldn't help but laugh after reading some information about Kong Lingkan and making a biography of the character.

Sort out the script and characters.

In order to better integrate into this role, I could only ask Zeng Li to help me try out the scene.

The night is dark.

Zhou Yutang was still communicating enthusiastically with the beauty in Tsing Yi and auditioning for the scene.

The lights in the bedroom stayed on until four o'clock in the night.

"The Founding of the People's Republic of China" is not our country's first gift film.

As early as the 40th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was a film called "The Founding Ceremony." Zhou Yutang watched that film in the school film room.

The selection of characters is more delicate and close to historical figures, and the interpretation of historical categories is more realistic and appropriate, including the lines and images are very appropriate, giving people a sense of majesty.

Characters are portrayed in detail, truly bringing the characters to life, thereby driving the entire historical event, giving a sense of seeing the big from the small.

Han Sanping's "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" just slaps the luxurious and top-notch lineup directly in the face.

Nearly 200 characters appear in a flashy way, describing that period of history. Naturally, it is slightly inferior in terms of character creation, but the lineup is luxurious.

Nearly 200 top stars + main themes.

Han Sanping's purpose is very clear, which is to win the box office, to present a gift to the motherland, and at the same time to knock down the "Titanic" that is weighing on his head.

mid-December.

Zhou Yutang joined the group "The Founding of the People's Republic of China".

I felt a shock on the first day.

Logically speaking.

At this time, he is also considered a popular star in the industry.

But being in such a crew is like a fish swimming into the sea.

Without him, there are too many big stars in the crew.

"Yu Tang, how do you feel?"

Mr. Han came to greet him personally, which attracted the attention of a group of people.

The crew has been filming for a few days, and Han Sanping rarely does this on his own initiative.

Judging from his attitude towards Zhou Yutang, he seems to be the most shining one among the bright stars.

Zhou Yutang felt many eyes on him, shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Han, there are so many seniors, I'm almost fascinated by them."

"Haha, behave well. The scene between you and Xiaokun is behind you."

Han Sanping patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Several meetings were held during this period, and "Lonely Agent" was confirmed to be released on May Day, and the announcement stage will soon begin.

Han Sanping will take care of the theater chain, film schedule, and screenings. Today we are talking about the first trailer of the movie and the subsequent publicity plan.

But it didn't take long before Han Sanping went over to get busy.

There are nearly 200 stars alone and even more staff. Managing such a huge crew makes Mr. Han very busy. He took the time to say hello to Zhou Yutang, which is also a big deal.

"Brother Ming."

"Yu Tang, you're here."

Zhou Yutang discovered that Huang Xiaoming, an old acquaintance, had been familiar with him in the past.

He also played the role of Captain Li Yinqiao. The two talked and laughed while looking at the lineup.

Tang Guofu, Zhang Guoli, Wang Wufu, Chen Baoguo, Chen Daoming, Ge You and other national first-class actors were all present.

Li Lianjie and Jackie Chan are all in the cast, the Four Heavenly Kings Andy Lau plays the old Chiang Kai-shek, Lai Ming plays Cai Tingkai, and hot stars such as Deng Chao and Donnie Yen are also there.

Half of the entertainment industry is here.

Zhou Yutang also heard rumors that his eldest brother Long wanted to play the role of a great man.
After chatting with Huang Xiaoming, Zhao Yanzi actually came to the door: "Yu Tang, it seems that the preliminary preparations for "Youth" between you and Hua Yi are almost completed, right?"

"That's almost it. I'm not sure. Hua Yi is doing it."

"It's a pity that we couldn't cooperate this time." "Haha, there will be opportunities in the future."

Zhou Yutang said a few polite words on the surface.

He didn't really want to get involved with Zhao Yanzi.

But it is undeniable that this woman is versatile and capable.

She had refused several times without showing any mercy, but at this time she was able to shamelessly come over and say hello. This is really not something that ordinary women can do.

Putting aside this episode, Zhou Yutang's attention returned to the movie.

I don't know what Han Sanping was thinking. The enemy's lineup included Liu Dehua, Chen Daoming, Jiang Wen, Chen Kun, Hu Jun, and Zhou Yutang, who was recognized for his good looks. He was so handsome that he alarmed the party.

Turn around and look at our army.

Wang Baorong grinned so hard that his eyes disappeared, Uncle Ge scratched his bald head, and Chef Fan Wei was stirring the spoon.
Zhou Yutang's role in the movie is actually not that many.

The most important thing is a scene with Chen Kun.

Chen Kun won the Huabiao Award for Outstanding Actor last year for his outstanding performance in "Yun Shui Yao".

Although the Huabiao Award is a government award, it has just been launched, but it is still quite important, even as much as the Hundred Flowers Award.

Chen Kun was able to win this award entirely due to his own strength.

After Zhou Yutang finished explaining the work in the company, he threw the phone to Mao Xiaoyu and began to immerse himself in the script.

A little bit of excitement and anticipation.

Under the management of the two bosses Han Sanping and Huang Jianxin, the crew ran in an orderly manner.

Finally it was Zhou Yutang's turn.

The plot is also very simple.

Du Yuesheng, played by Xiaogangpao, ran to Jiang Jingguo, the supervisory commissioner, and complained about Kong Lingkan.

To say that he is hoarding supplies and driving up prices in the Magic City is just lawless.

Jiang Jingguo was furious and decided to block Kong Lingkan's Yangzi company. In order to establish his authority, Kong Lingkan went to his aunt Soong Meiling to complain.

This is where the conflict broke out.

They are also all professional actors.

Needless to say, Chen Kun, who plays Chiang Ching-kuo, Wu Junmei, who plays Soong Meiling, is also a veteran actor, and Zhou Yutang is a hot super newcomer in the industry.

After simple word matching, positioning, and rehearsal.

Director Huang Jianxin and Huang quickly shouted the start.

Zhou Yutang was wearing a high-end vest suit and was sitting on a mahogany chair. His long legs were raised directly on the coffee table and shook. He tilted his head slightly and looked at Chen Kun sitting opposite, with a look of boredom and displeasure on his face:

"Auntie, I have such great power that I was sealed inside and outside the Yangtze Branch with just one sentence. They even sent people all over Modutan to summon me."

Song Meiling, played by Wu Junmei, was peeling an apple as if she hadn't heard anything.

click!

Bullets loaded.

Zhou Yutang took out the gun directly from his belt, raised his eyes slightly, and sneered disdainfully: "It's okay, we met today, and it saves my cousin a lot of trouble."

Wu Junmei's movements froze.

"Not bad!"

Zhang Guoli and Ge You were eating melon outside and nodded slightly.

Zhou Yutang added a few little actions of his own in addition to the script.

The rhythm is well controlled, showing Kong Lingkan's attitude of not being angry with Jiang Jingguo, and also showing that Jiang Jingguo is not afraid of doing anything to him.

His uncle Song Ziwen was Chiang Kai-shek's God of Wealth.

Even though Jiang Jingguo was the prince, how could he dare to touch him easily?

"The pressure is on Chen Kun."

Han Sanping also folded his arms and watched with interest.

He had not seen the filming of "The Lonely Agent" on site, but Zhou Yutang's detailed performance in this film made him feel a bit amazing.

And Chen Kun is also his confidant.

He is looking forward to how Chen Kun will take on this scene.

Wu Junmei, who was playing Soong Meiling next to her, saw that she had fired her gun, so she said, "David, are you crazy?"

"How dare I shoot the prince with a gun?"

With a cynical smile on his face, Zhou Yutang stood up and moved forward, slowly pushing the gun in front of Chen Kun with both hands. The handle of the gun was facing him, and the muzzle was pointed at himself, making a gesture of invitation.

Then he sat casually on the mahogany chair, loosened his tie, and spread his hands with a sneer: "Cousin, this matter is very simple. You can either shoot me to death and it will be over."

"I am a criminal, and you, Jiang Qingtian, are famous all over Shanghai."

Having said this, Zhou Yutang spread his hands and said indifferently: "In this way, we can each get what we deserve."

Snapped!
Chen Kun's response was very direct and powerful.

He slammed his gun on the table.

Then he leaned back on the leather chair, crossed his fingers, raised his head slightly, lowered his eyelids, and said in a calm tone:
"The official document from the Supervision and Inspection Commission makes it very clear that you are required to go for questioning within 10 days, otherwise you will be severely punished."

The tone sounded very calm, but it was unquestionable, as if he was really the aloof Prince Chiang, and one word could determine life or death.

Zhou Yutang's thick sword-shaped eyebrows were slightly raised.

Chen Kun caught his own scene and pushed it back in a softer way.

This is the power of actors with superb acting skills.

It is not a programmed performance, but the characteristics of this character are truly revealed through the tone, demeanor, movements and other details. As the opponent, I feel a lot of pressure.

Zhou Yutang seemed to be irritated by Chen Kun's attitude. He stood up suddenly and said angrily, "Yangzi is the property of the Confucius family. If you have the ability, arrest my father too!"

"How many years have you been working in Modutan, inside and outside, and everything changes when a supervisory commissioner comes?"

Zhou Yutang turned around and complained to Wu Junmei: "Aunt, everyone does this. This is the industry rule."

After a pause, he glanced at Chen Kun with disdain: "Doing business without following industry rules is the way of a feudal dictator!"

"it is good!"

Director Huang Jianxin’s eyes lit up.

Zhou Yutang perfectly demonstrated the lawless temperament of Kong Lingkan's second generation ancestor.

After saying this, Zhou Yutang seemed to feel the anger hidden in Chen Kun's calm eyes. He withdrew his gaze, put his hands in his pockets, and acted as if there was no one else around.

"Then do you know?"

Chen Kun stood up and exploded: "The currency is devalued, prices are soaring, and the people of Dawn are panicked!"

"And you, General Manager Kong, have tens of thousands of tons of supplies stored in your warehouse and are unwilling to sell them!"

"I'm a businessman, not a philanthropist."

Zhou Yutang's eyes twitched and he returned to his seat.

These two people seemed to have entered into a very subtle state of drama.

I forgot that I was acting.

It seems that it is really the second ancestor Kong Lingkan and Chiang Ching-kuo who are having a conversation.

Chen Kun's sorrow and worry about the Kuomintang cannot be true anymore.

Zhou Yutang's indifferent capitalist expression also didn't seem to be staged.

"Ka! Good! Very good!"

Director Huang Jianxin shouted from behind the monitor.

This truly comes from the heart.

Zhou Yutang and Chen Kun were matched against each other and contributed quite wonderful acting skills.

Zhou Yutang's spirited and delicate performance was also firmly caught by Chen Kun, showing his skills as a first-line actor.

But I was more surprised.

Chen Kun is a senior who has been in the industry for many years.

From an idol to an actor, he has accumulated countless experiences. He has just won the Huabiao Award for Best Actor, and his acting skills have been fully recognized.

But Zhou Yutang is just a newcomer who has only made his debut two and a half years ago.

What he can do is no worse than Chen Kun.

Such talent is really amazing. It is said that he can also write scripts, be a director, start a company and make money.
This guy is a monster.

No wonder Mr. Han thinks so highly of him.

Huang Jianxin turned his head and glanced at Han Sanping, and could clearly see the proud smile on Han Sanping's face.

This scene is over.

Zhou Yutang’s plot is almost over.

When he came back to his senses, he realized that there was a circle of movie stars surrounding him.

Chen Daoming, Ge You, and Zhang Guoli were all sitting there eating melons and watching the show, and the little steel cannon grinned at him with buck teeth.

They were all seniors, and Zhou Yutang also took the initiative to greet them politely.

On the way back to the backstage lounge, I met Chen Kun.

The two people had only spoken during the dialogue. They had not known each other before. They looked at each other. Zhou Yutang seemed to be able to sense that Chen Kun was a little embarrassed, so he took the initiative to say: "Brother Kun, you just acted really well."

"You acted very well."

Zhou Yutang took the lead to break the ice, and Chen Kun also relaxed a little.

The two chatted for a few words, mostly exchanging business information. When they were about to enter the lounge, Chen Kun suddenly said: "Xiao Xun mentioned you in front of me several times."

"what?"

Zhou Yutang was slightly taken aback.

The Xiao Xun mentioned by Chen Kun is undoubtedly Zhou Xun. He and Zhou Xun have a very good relationship. They are still neighbors.
But the friendship between Zhou Yutang and Mr. Zhou only lasted a cigarette.

That's it.

Can you make her miss you so much?
