China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 250: Go to the world’s grand banquet and see the beauty of the world’s prosperous times
"Jiang Wenli."

Zhou Yutang suddenly thought of this enthusiastic aunt.

At the beginning, they also engaged in the ridiculous incident of blind date.

Leave everything else aside.

Her acting skills are really nothing to say.

When I was only a junior in college, my performance in Poet Chen's "Farewell My Concubine" was amazing.

His eyes were frivolous but tinged with sadness, and he knelt down while brushing his clothes.

Later, Bai Yuting in "The Mansion", Wang Cailing in "The Beginning of Spring", Wen Li in "Golden Wedding"
Created many classic characters.

There are not many actresses like her in China who are just the right age.

With Zhang Guoli playing matchmaker inside, Zhou Yutang quickly contacted Jiang Wenli.

In the end, Jiang Wenli also had something to say, "Yu Tang, I saw in the news that Zhang Jingchu also came to your place to audition?"

"Here he comes."

"what's the result?"

"I haven't decided on her yet, this time I used Fan Binbin."

"You have such good eyesight."

Jiang Wenli couldn't help laughing when she heard this.

"..."

Zhou Yutang suddenly felt at ease.

I remembered the romantic affair between Director Gu and Zhang Jingchu.

Jiang Wenli made a big fuss back then and caused a lot of uproar.

"I have no problem with your drama."

Jiang Wenli nodded and agreed readily.

"Sister Wen Li, happy to cooperate."

Zhou Yutang is very good at dealing with women, and this call made Jiang Wenli very happy.

Zhou Yutang calls Zhang Guoli "uncle" and calls her sister. Doesn't this make her look younger?

There is no woman who does not care about the passing of her youth.

Especially women like Jiang Wenli need the affirmation of a handsome young man like him.

"correct."

Jiang Wenli seemed to have thought of something, and asked somewhat earnestly: "Yu Tang, did Sichun chat with you later?"

"I'm usually busy with work, so let's chat occasionally."

Zhou Yutang's expression twitched slightly.

That girl sent a lot of messages in one direction.

Some shared her daily life, some were happy about the box office success of "Big Shot", and some were congratulating Zhou Yutang when he won the award...

Like many little girls this age.

She intends to share her life, but the method is not that clever. She seems to be waiting for Zhou Yutang to ask her out.

She usually posts a lot.

Zhou Yutang would occasionally reply politely when he was free.

As a popular celebrity, she has a lot of schedule announcements and is busy with time management.

I'm too busy even to spend time with my sisters, so how can I have time to chat with this little princess?

Jiang Wenli's face smiled like a flower: "Yeah, your work is very important, but sometimes it's good to go out and have fun with friends of the same age..."

"Sichun, she admires you very much. She often mentions you in front of me. You don't know that her room is full of pictures of you. You are her idol..."

Probably because of age.

Aunt Wenli is a bit nagging and is also keen on pulling red strings.

She wants to pave a road to the sky for her niece.

Zhou Yutang finally dealt with it and hung up the phone.

He really has never encountered anything like this.

She was so eager to push her niece away, as if she was eager to see Zhou Yutang accomplish good things with her right away.
……

In early November, the highly anticipated movie "Western Wind" held its premiere.

This large-scale production jointly produced by China Film and Huayi was originally scheduled to be released in late October, but because Zhou Yutang's "Big Shot" had such strong box office momentum, it chose to postpone the release date.

I would rather compete with "Speed", "Resident Evil 11" and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 4)" starring Denzel Washington in November than temporarily avoid the edge of "Big Shot" .

There was an extra period of publicity period, and the release of the press release also whetted the audience's appetite.

China Film International Cinema.

On the red carpet, the stars were shining.

As the leading domestic entertainment company, Huayi still has a strong foundation despite the departure of several generals this year.

Li Binbin, Deng Chao, Yao Chen, Huo Siyan and other actors have walked on the red carpet.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing was Zhou Yutang’s presence.

The luxury nanny car stopped.

Zhou Yutang brought Zeng Li to the scene, and immediately set off a tsunami at the scene.

An entertainment reporter squatting on the periphery was ecstatic, struggled to squeeze out of the crowd, and handed the microphone to Zhou Yutang: "Director Zhou, has the casting of "Thieves" been confirmed?"

"It hasn't been finalized yet."

Zhou Yutang smiled slightly: "Please pay attention to the official announcement for details."

"I heard that this time it is a co-production between the two countries. Who will be chosen as the actors on the South Korean side?"

"Still communicating with the other side."

"Mr. Zhou, Xu Jinglei broke up a few days ago. It is said that it was because of your involvement that the relationship changed. What do you want to say about this?"

"She broke up?"

Zhou Yutang was slightly stunned. He really didn't know about this.

The entertainment reporter who only wanted to make scandals pressed for the truth: "A paparazzi photographed you and Xu Jinglei coming out of a hotel at night, acting intimately. Are you in a relationship?"

"This joke is not funny. We are just friends."

After dealing with entertainment reporters for a while, Zeng Li also responded to a few questions, and the two finally entered the venue.

"A League of Thieves" is still in the early stage of casting, Zeng Li took advantage of this period of time to enter the promotion period before "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was released, and was happily lying down in the capital.

I ran the small teahouse with my best friend Hu Jing, and by the way, I asked Zhou Yutang for advice on the things that a producer needs to pay attention to.

Zhou Yutang also taught everything he had without reservation.

After having dinner with Xu Jinglei that day, they returned to their love nest. During their chat, they mentioned that several big beauties had dated him.

Zeng Li didn't care much about this.

She knew her place in Zhou Yutang's heart.

As soon as he entered the venue, he saw that his old friend Mei Ting was there, so Zeng Li went over to chat with friends and reminisce about old times.

Zhou Yutang was also dealing with the proactive greetings from Li Binbin, Deng Chao and others.

Li Lianhua is really not an ordinary person. Even though she failed in this audition, she didn't look unhappy at all and treated Zhou Yutang with the same enthusiasm as before.

After exchanging greetings with old friends, I happened to see the director of this film, Gao Qunshu, being interviewed by the media: "This is an unprecedented type of film in China. What I made is a mainstream popular commercial film that can be enjoyed by both refined and popular people. Both literate and uneducated audiences will find something interesting in this film."

""Big Shot" has made a good start. I think the box office of "Western Wind" will not be less than 3 million. Of course, if the situation is ideal, it is not impossible to achieve a box office of 4 million or 5 million. We can even look forward to "Big Shot" "record of
The success of "Western Wind" means that there is still hope for tomorrow's movies. "

The media reporters at the scene were very excited.

Oh, director Gao Qunshu pointed his finger at "Big Shot" and claimed that "Western Wind" is the hope of Chinese movies.

Isn’t breaking news coming soon?
When Zhou Yutang heard this, his expression twitched and his whole body choked.

It seems that the success of "Big Shot" has brought strong confidence to practitioners in the film industry. This tall and fat man really dares to brag.

Director Gao Qunshu is as round as a ball.He was also the director of "The Wind". The two had interacted several times at that time. When they met Zhou Yutang, their eyes immediately lit up and they laughed heartily:
"Yu Tang, I was talking about you just now, and you came just in time."

The purpose of holding a premiere is to expose the movie. Now that Zhou Yutang is attending, there will be no shortage of news.

He came up to say hello with a very affectionate look, and Zhou Yutang responded with a faint smile, "Hello, Director Gao."

In fact, he was not very familiar with Gao Qunshu. This time he was invited by Han Sanping and came to support Wu Jing for the sake of Wu Jing.

Naturally, there was nothing to talk about with him. After polite greetings, he turned to chat with Wu Jing.

"Yu Tang, you are so awesome."

Wu Jing has always been so direct in his speech: "I took Xie Nan to the cinema to watch that movie three times. You shot it well and acted even better. Now that I see you, I can't help but want to give it to you." You punch."

"Brother Jing, thank you."

Zhou Yutang was also a little funny.

I watched it three times and it really contributed a lot to the box office.

"By the way, do you still need people for "Thieves"?"

Wu Jing's baby face also had a smile on his face: "I can play a supporting role or a supporting role. I don't want a salary, I just take care of the food. I'll come over and learn a few tricks from my teacher."

The movie "Wolf Fang" that he directed and starred in failed miserably, but he did not give up directing. Instead, he had a clear understanding of his own abilities and chose to continue studying.

He really wants to go further on the road of directing.

"sure."

Zhou Yutang's heart moved slightly: "Then come over when the time comes."

The starring cast for the Chinese side has basically been decided, and only the South Korean side remains to be seen.

But for such a crime action drama, there is no problem in inserting a few eye-catching thugs in supporting roles.

Zhang Jing from his own company is planning to play a supporting role in "Thieves", and more Wu Jing would be good too.

The standard process of introduction by the host + interview with the main creative staff went quickly.

Enter the movie screening session.

Everyone in the screening room cheered up.

"Western Wind", which is the first shot of the New Year, is directed by Gao Qunshu, who previously held the title of "No. 1 police and gangster" in China, and also stars Duan Yihong, Ni Dahong, Zhang Li, Wu Jing, Wu Zhenyu, Yu Nan, Liu Xing PLUS, Yang Caini starred in the full performance.

This lineup is nothing short of luxurious.

Almost all members are powerful.

The producers are China Film and Huayi, and Huayilai was responsible for the promotion and distribution, spending a lot of money.

This film tells the story of four western policemen with special skills who went thousands of miles into the no-man's land of the desert to collect murders.

First, a large panoramic shot from a high place kicked off the movie.

A pair of male and female killers, played by Wu Zhenyu and Yu Nan, enter a dilapidated small village.

then.

A huge, brightly colored advertisement for Biqi anti-diarrheal medicine came into view.

There was a pause for several seconds.

Zhou Yutang frowned slightly.

The beauty in green clothes sitting next to him captured Zhou Yutang's emotional changes very keenly.

Even if it was just for a fleeting moment, she cast a questioning look with concern. Zhou Yutang patted the back of Zeng Li's hand to indicate that she was fine.

I saw Ni Dahong and Zhang Li chasing the killer. Zhang Li had diarrhea on the way, and he even threw him a bottle of Biqi antidiarrheal medicine.

Zhou Yutang finally couldn't help but shook his head.

He is recognized in the industry as the king of advertising placement.

Almost every TV series and movie has many traces of advertising placement. Sometimes in projects he participated in, the filming costs can even be recovered by advertising placement alone.

This kind of operation has also been cited as a classic case by many companies in the industry.

However, advertising placement in film and television works also requires timing.

Just like Liu Yifei in "My Love from the Star", the lipsticks and cosmetics she uses are obviously extremely natural and silky, which can actually arouse the audience's curiosity to learn about the products.

However, such forced placement in "Western Wind" will only make the audience feel that the drama is abrupt and lower the grade of the work.

After watching the movie, Zhou Yutang did not accept an interview, but just took Zeng Li away.

The two of them exchanged ideas in the car, and Zeng Li also felt confused: "It feels like a lot of things have not been explained clearly."

Zhou Yutang laughed and said: "The logic of the plot is flawed, the rhythm is poorly controlled, and Gao Qunshu messed up this time."

"Should we make a movie or an advertisement? People who watched it were speechless."

"It's a shame I was looking forward to this first Western, and this is what happened."

"Haha, the first one? Check out "The Swordsman of Two Flags Town"."

"It's very confusing."

"A bad movie, a waste of my movie ticket money."

"Western Wind" received 40% of the film schedule, and the box office on the first day was only 1600 million. For a movie with a total investment of more than 8000 million, this is obviously unacceptable.

After the movie premiered, online word-of-mouth reviews were almost exclusively negative.

The eyes of the audience are discerning.

Before the movie was released, Gao Qunshu also said, "Zhou Yutang is now alone seeking defeat, and I am alone seeking victory" and "is expected to challenge "Big Shot"".

As a result, his face was swollen.

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

The recording of the first episode of "Where Are We Going, Dad" started, and Zhou Yutang went to the scene.

Lingshui Village is only a few dozen kilometers away from the city, which is not too far.

Although this is the first time to record a program, after a whole season of "Running Man" training, the people in the working team of Mingjie Company are very professional.

The children were indeed very cute. They screamed when they saw Zhou Yutang and took a group photo at the scene, which can be used for publicity.

For "Thieves Alliance", the cast of China has basically been confirmed.

This time Zhou Yutang named Chen Xi as the producer and asked her to stay in China to do preliminary preparations.

Coordinate actors' schedules, survey and select locations, determine shooting locations, serve as actors, and plan shooting tasks.

There are also advertising sponsorships that need to be discussed first. For a blockbuster like this, the crew’s preparatory work is very important.

These are not achievements that can be achieved overnight.

Because we still need to communicate with South Korea.

According to Pei Yun.

The best actors and actresses in Chungmulu over there all publicly expressed their interest in this film project and took the initiative to submit their resumes to the South Korean branch of Jiangdong Entertainment.

Several entertainment giants are also excited.

They are even ready, just waiting for Zhou Yutang to come to South Korea and start public relations immediately.

The purpose is also to recruit their own actors into the group.

A big project like this with an investment of over [-] million is very attractive to top actors over there.

At this time, Zhou Yutang.

Already on a plane to the other side of the ocean.

He glanced at the work itinerary report that Mao Xiaoyu had compiled.

Rubbing his eyes, the white clouds outside the window seemed to condense into that pure and beautiful face.

The corners of Zhou Yutang's lips curved slightly.

Go to the feast of the world, and see the beauty of the world.

I will go to see you with flowers in my hands.

In a windy place.
