China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 192: Popular throughout Asia, explosive effect

Zhou Yutang's dishonest little hands were already on Tianxian's waist.

He couldn't put it down for her frosty yet elastic skin.

At this time I received a call.

To be honest, Zhou Yutang felt a little resistant in her heart. Liu Yifei slapped away the offending hand with a blushing face. After answering the phone and hearing the content, these emotions dissipated a lot.
"Yu Tang, the latest ratings from South Korea's SBS have come back. The ratings for the first broadcast were 15.6%."

"Well, it's okay."

"What do you mean it's okay? This is the highest first-run ratings for an SBS drama this year!"

Li Shuang couldn't hide the excitement and smile in his voice: "Yu Tang, you and Liu Yifei will become famous all over Asia soon."

"Xiao Zhou, what is Shuimu Drama?"

Liu Yifei asked in a low voice in Zhou Yutang's ear, with a fragrant breath.

"In South Korea and Neon, the days of the week have inherited the names of the ancient Celestial Dynasty. Starting from Sunday, they are represented by the sun, moon, fire, water, wood, metal, and earth. The water and wood dramas are broadcast on Wednesdays and Thursdays. TV drama."

"Xiao Zhou, I just heard something about the highest premiere ratings. Are we popular in South Korea?"

Liu Yifei tugged on Zhou Yutang's sleeves, her mouth slightly opened, her cuteness sprouting from the inside out.

Looking at the clear eyes of Tianxian, which seemed to be filled with incredulity, Zhou Yutang also felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, "Not only is it popular, but it is also a super hit."

Bae Zhuhyun is a trainee in SM, South Korea's largest entertainment company.

Like many of her peers who dream of becoming idols and shining brightly on the stage in the future, she sweated wantonly in the practice room before her debut.

A break.

The trainees in the practice room drank water together to replenish their energy and chatted and gossiped.

Today, the trainees in the entire training room seemed to be discussing the plot of "My Love from the Star" with a little excitement.

Bae Zhuhyun sat next to her friend Jiang Seulqi and said with emotion:

"Seulgi, Professor Zhou is really popular. It seems that the dance teachers and the company's Korean director are all discussing it."

Zhou Yutang's drama seemed to be quietly promoted by someone. It attracted a lot of attention as soon as it was aired. After only a few episodes were aired, it seemed to have some kind of magical power that directly attracted the attention of many people.

"This seems to be a work written by Senior Zhou himself, which is really amazing."

"Same as "The Last Man", it's a completely phenomenal work."

Jiang Seulqi smiled innocently: "Even my younger sister is following the drama, and after knowing that I have a signed photo of my senior, this little guy actually wants to use his hard-earned pocket money to exchange for that photo with me. I am speechless."

"Pfft, we even took a group photo at that time."

Pei Zhuxuan thought of something, picked up her phone and opened the photo.

"It's a pity that the light was not very good, so the picture was not very clear."

Looking at the photo of himself and Zhou Yutang posing with scissor hands, Pei Zhuxuan pursed her lips and showed a smile.

There was an obviously younger female trainee beside her who asked curiously: "Sister Zhuhyun, I heard from seniors in the company that you are friends with Sister Song Qian from FX, and you even met Professor Zhou by chance together. Is it true?"

"Jin Yelin, I can guarantee that it is absolutely true!"

Jiang Seulqi took the initiative to raise her hand and said with a naive smile: "We even ate ramen together and took a group photo together. Professor Zhou looks far more handsome in person than on TV."

"Wow, can you let me see it?"

"of course can."

Jin Yilin received the permission and happily took the phone and looked at it. Her eyes were attracted like a magnet. She couldn't help but envy: "Senior Zhou Yutang is really very charming in real life."

She was a little excited and her voice was a little loud. She only mentioned the name Zhou Yutang, which immediately attracted countless female trainees to surround Bae Zhuhyun and Jiang Seulqi and join the discussion.

These people are obviously people who may become idols in the future, but at this time they seem to be fanatical fans.

"Oh my god! He can be so handsome in his daily life photos. Is this true?"

"I originally thought he was handsome enough in "Alone", but I didn't expect him to be even more charming in "My Love from the Star"."

"I saw his posts online. It is said that he and Liu Yiren are lovers in real life."

"How is that possible? Didn't you say that the year before last, there were scandals with SNSD's YoonA sister and FX's Song Qian sister?"

The trainees are also at a curious age. Facing Zhou Yutang who has achieved such results, they feel indescribable admiration and respect in their hearts.

The hit TV series "My Love from the Star" has unknowingly swept South Korea and become the absolute center of discussion for many people.

Pei Zhuhyun listened quietly.

Participate in everyone's discussions occasionally.

I didn’t forget to drink water in small sips to replenish my strength.

I thought about my favorite idol, who is not a native of the country and has never been active in South Korea. His works alone can cause such a big response in South Korea.

Pei Zhuxuan felt a strange sense of surprise and pride in her heart.

Ok.

It's an amazing feeling.

night.

SM Youth Dormitory.

"Hahahahaha!"

Wearing comfortable pajamas and sitting cross-legged on the sofa, Lim Yoona showed off her signature crocodile smile.

Kim Taeyeon, who had just come out of the bathroom and was flipping her hair, choked up: "Yoona, you have to pay attention to your image. You are the face of our SNSD!"

"Anyman again?"

"Sister Taeyeon, where can I find it?"

Lin Yoona was coquettish, but her eyes were reluctant to leave the TV screen. At this time, SBS TV station was playing "My Love from the Star".

"You are really hopeless. You are just a man. Is that so?"

Kim Taeyeon shook her head helplessly.

Jessica and Huang Meiying, who were sitting next to Yoona, rubbed their arms and felt goosebumps rising on their bodies, and they distanced themselves from Lin Yoona.

this year.

After all the hard work, SNSD finally became a big hit. There were a lot of schedule announcements arranged by the company, and they were basically in a state of making announcements all over the place.

It was only at the end of the year that we got a rare vacation. It happened to be that the hit movie "My Love from the Star" was on the air, so the few of us caught up on the show in the dormitory.

Huang Meiying couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "Yooner, you are also the face of our SNSD after all, but you are so obsessed with a man?"

"I've seen so many handsome guys, I don't believe he has such great magic power."

Jessica thought of her sister, Xiao Jingshu, who was also a big fan of that man, and curled her lips downwards.

The two women worked together to defeat the man far away in heaven who turned Yoona into a nymphomaniac, but their voices gradually fell.

Because their attention was completely attracted by this TV series.

Today I put your famous snow scene.

When he saw only these two people left on the snow, Zhou Yutang clearly had a crush on Liu Yifei, but drove her away.

When Liu Yifei left, she used the super power of stopping time. Witnessed by the white snowflakes, she walked over and kissed her gently.

And while walking, he took off his gloves and gently held Liu Yifei's hand.

Wow! ! !
A burst of shouting erupted in the junior girls' dormitory.

Jessica and Huang Meiying had little stars in their eyes.

"Oh my god, this is so good."

Kim Taeyeon was blow-drying her hair as if a soft spot in her heart had been touched. She couldn't help but put down the hair dryer, walked to the TV, and murmured to herself.

Even after the episode was played, the members of the group were still having heated discussions.

Huang Meiying: "I suddenly understand Yoona, and I also like Professor Zhou Zhou a little bit. What should I do?"

Kim Taeyeon: "Those male artists in the domestic entertainment industry will become amateurs if they stand next to him, right?"

Jessica: "It would be great if I could fall in love with him."

puff!
Seeing the scene of Zhenxiang that turned around not long after, Lin Yoona showed a very happy smile and joked: "Ah! That's my husband, please pay more attention!"

..............................

[The magical alien Zhou Yutang conquered South Korea with his charm and broke the record for the highest first-run ratings of a South Korean TV series!]

["My Love from the Star" is popular throughout Asia, and countless South Korean female fans are crazy about chasing the star! 】【Zhou Yutang was selected as the No. 1 male star most anticipated to date by Korean Net! 】

[Asian male idol is well deserved, Zhou Yutang single-handedly dominates the ratings rankings in the South Korean film and television industry! 】

The news that the ratings for the first broadcast in South Korea were huge spread quickly back to China, and many media rushed to report it, which immediately caused an uproar.

I saw that a South Korean female fan raised money to buy an advertising page of an influential newspaper in Seoul, and even posted Zhou Yutang's photo and rose confession on billboards such as subway stations.

The entire entertainment industry was shocked.

isn't it?
Everyone here is still fighting for the top spot.

Brother, you have become popular all over Asia without saying anything?
This unscientific.

It's really not very scientific.

Because I have only seen celebrities from South Korea come to China to make money crazily before. Everyone seems to regard this as a normal phenomenon. I have never seen anyone like Zhou Yutang who can reach South Korea like this.

thriving.

The key is to use phenomenal works to make the male star unable to hold his head up.

"Sister Fuzhen, I leave the matter to you."

Zhou Yutang ended the cross-country call, a slight curve appeared at the corner of his mouth, and received another call from Han Sanping: "Yu Tang, you are a little too big this time."

Han Sanping's voice was full of surprise.

In the first half of this year, "Alone" exploded in the South Korean film market, and in the second half of the year, "My Love from the Star" hit the market with explosive ratings.

Not only was his popularity in the domestic entertainment industry cut off, but he was also killing people in South Korea.

Since the broadcast of "My Love from the Star", five or six of the top 10 searches on Baidu Naver in South Korea are related to Zhou Yutang.

"Professor Zhou is played by Zhou Yutang."

"I want to date Zhou Yutang."

"Why is Zhou Yutang so popular?"

"Liu Yifei, you come from the stars."

"Are Zhou Yutang and Liu Yifei a real couple?"

This time things got a little big, and Han Sanping was alarmed, and he took the initiative to say: "Yu Tang, how are you? Are there any official resistance over there? If so, I can help."

"Thank you, Mr. Han. It doesn't seem to be necessary at the moment. Li Fuzhen will take care of it."

"Ah That's good"

Han Sanping was a little surprised by Zhou Yutang's connections, but he didn't say anything.

As usual, he encouraged Zhou Yutang, mainly to encourage Zhou Yutang to go ahead and do it.

After mentioning it vaguely, the senior leaders above felt pleased with Zhou Yutang's achievements.

Tee, Tee, Tee.

Zhou Yutang tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table.

Now it seems that the cooperation with Li Fuzhen is really a wonderful move.

Although some of its interests in South Korea were transferred.

All of Zhou Yutang's works, as long as they are released in South Korea, must specifically include the name of the private company that cooperates with Li Fuzhen, but he will definitely not lose money.

Feeling inexplicably happy, I switched my vest and went online to read a bunch of comments.

Several entertainment portals such as Sina Sohu are full of news about the popularity of "My Love from the Star" in South Korea.

Looking at several forums, there are also rave reviews:

"Captain Niu!" Jiangdong's black silk stocking Sun Shangxiang.

"You still have to watch Zhou Yutang. Girls who are obsessed with sticks clench their legs tightly. It's probably going to leak out." I've fucked a sheep before.

"I really didn't expect it to be so influential in South Korea. I think South Koreans are crazy about your stars and your CP. Zhou Yutang really has you."

"Haha, hype! Keep up the hype! Zhou Yutang will also buy drafts to promote himself. No one really believes that he is so popular in South Korea, right?" Lu Yechuanlang.

"Actually, I think Liu Shishi and Zhou Yutang have a better CP." Lion kkk.

Several online forums were very lively, and some people questioned the authenticity of the news, but they were quickly overwhelmed by screenshots that netizens forwarded from external reports.

it is true!
Great reviews!

At this time, the first round of screenings of "My Love from the Star" has ended, but several TV stations are still frantically rebroadcasting it, overwhelming CCTV's new year drama "Myth".

"Myth" was broadcast on CCTV, with a ratings of 5%, and it was considered a hit. However, "My Love from the Star" was too monsterous. It was a phenomenal hit film and television drama.

Since the news of the explosion in South Korea spread back to China, TV stations such as Lu Province, Rongcheng, and Lantai have been frantically competing for the second and third rounds. Several online video platforms such as Youku and LeTV have also sent offers to the company.

The connotation of the TV series "My Love from the Star" may not be as profound as "Latent", but in terms of market effect, it is definitely far superior to the former.

From the time the TV series was broadcast to now, coupled with the popularity of South Korea, the Baidu index has exceeded 200 million. With a search index of 25, Zhou Yutang beat the stars and ranked first on the Baidu entertainment celebrity list. No.2 is Liu Yifei.

The fans of this pair of star CPs on Weibo have increased even more astonishingly. Zhou Yutang’s current number of Weibo fans has exceeded 225 million, Liu Yifei also has 168 million fans, Zhao Yanzi and the following stars combined can’t beat only one Star your CP.

Not only Gao Yuanyuan, but also celebrities in the industry are fanatically following the drama.

Big stars such as Zhao Yanzi, Fan Xiaopang, Li Binbin, Xu Jinglei, Hu Ge, Tong Dawei, Lin Yichen, Chen Qiaoen, etc. have all shared their drama-watching trends on their social accounts.

Zhou Yutang went to Zeng Li's house after attending the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal.

As a result, Zeng Li asked for a signed photo card that night, saying that her sister was a fan of Professor Zhou and would give it to her sister when she went home for the Chinese New Year.
What’s even more outrageous is that the social effect of “Star You” has directly ignited the domestic fried chicken industry.

According to relevant reports, after the TV series aired, many fried chicken restaurants that were originally flat in business suddenly became popular, and now diners have to queue for a long time to eat.

Even the costumes and cosmetics of the same style as the protagonist were sold out.

"Yu Tang, there are more than a dozen film contracts and endorsements. The old rule is that these are high-quality resources after screening. It's up to you to decide."

Just after returning to the company for a meeting, Li Shuang placed a stack of organized documents in front of Zhou Yutang's desk.

They are all very good resources in the industry. If an ordinary actor receives so many film offers, he would probably smile crookedly.

Zhou Yutang flipped through it roughly, but still lacked interest.

The most noteworthy thing is probably that Boehner had the idea of ​​​​starting a remake of "A Chinese Ghost Story" and threw an olive branch to him.

Zhou Yutang was strongly invited to play the leading role, but no matter how the film was remade, how could it possibly surpass the version starring Leslie Cheung and Peter Wong?
Straight through.

Juli Pictures also started to spend money. Mr. Yang made a movie "The Legend of White Snake", and asked Zhou Yutang to be the male lead, and the female lead was Huang Shengyi, one of the four little actresses.

Not to mention that this is a bad movie, Zhou Yutang will not be idle to praise Huang Shengyi.

Then there is sister Zhilin’s love action movie "Love You Without Regrets".
The romance film has action elements added to it. Zhou Yutang looked at the book and wondered who wrote it.

The male protagonist is a descendant of ancient martial arts, probably borrowing from the setting of maxed-out martial arts in "The Lonely Agent", and works as a bodyguard in the city, while sister Zhilin plays the role of the beautiful wife of an old man in a large group.

Because the male protagonist was protecting Sister Zhilin, he was involved in a series of conspiracy whirlpools, and then the two of them developed feelings.
Very good, very YY.

There is also a bed scene.

Zhou Yutang rubbed his forehead and put the script aside, "Sister Shuang, how's the endorsement deal going?"

"Snacks, drinks, furniture, mobile phones, computers, TVs, etc. are all available, all high-quality endorsements."

Li Shuang smiled and said: "Now that you are a famous star in Asia, your endorsement value has increased a bit. Why don't you wait until after the Spring Festival Gala? It may even increase slightly by then."

"forget it."

Zhou Yutang shook his head slightly: "Let's talk directly."

Now that the movie "My Love from the Star" is popular in Asia, he doesn't even need to issue a press release. Naturally, the media is helping to stir up the hype. It's like a raging fire cooking oil. Even with the bonus of the Spring Festival Gala, it won't be more popular than this.

"I've sorted it out, you can take a look first."

Zhou Yutang pulled out several endorsement documents.

He didn't think about taking it all. In fact, he could earn [-] million just by endorsing Zhou Yutang, so he wouldn't have to do anything in the next one or two years.
For example, the first-line celebrities in the industry basically have more than 10 endorsement advertisements, and there are celebrities who work hard, and the number of endorsements and advertisements is as high as dozens.

After a round of screening, Zhou Yutang finally nodded and left a few of the best quotes.

Endorsement quotes for ASUS computers, Hisense TVs, Chow Tai Fook jewelry and Coke.

Nowadays, his endorsement price basically starts at 3000 million for two years. Compared with the basic price, this price is already super top-notch even in Hong Kong circles.

While sorting out the information, Mao Xiaoyu asked: "Boss, the quotes from Pepsi and Keke are similar, which one do you choose?"

"Of course Pepsi."

Zhou Yutang glanced at Mao Xiaoyu in surprise: "You don't know how to drink Coca-Cola, do you?"
