China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 304: The Shocking Thief Group sweeps through the summer season

"Yu Tang, is this going to be a series of movies?"

Coming out of the cinema, Hu Ge asked enthusiastically.

Liu Shishi and Tang Yan were also very interested. Their beautiful eyes turned and focused on Zhou Yutang.

"The next part of the script is ready."

"So quickly, the script is finished!?"

Tang Yan's eyes widened in shock, which made Liu Shishijiao burst into laughter: "Tangtang, you are so funny."

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Tang Yan and Liu Shishi both work and live in Shanghai. They often go shopping together and have a very close relationship.

She probably felt that her reaction just now was a little big. Tang Yan blushed and hugged Liu Shishi, muttering: "I just asked casually."

Just ask.

But I have my own thoughts.

If there is a choice.

Who would want to lie down at home and pick their feet?
Tang Yan also has her own ideas.

There is considerable progress in negotiating a buyout contract with the company. If I can get my hands on Zhou Yutang, I can get a role in the sequel to this super hit movie.
Isn't it taking off?

While hugging Liu Shishi's fragrant body, talking and laughing, Tang Yan was thinking about Zhou Yutang.

Zhou Yutang will continue his road show tomorrow, and in a while, Hu Ge, Liu Shishi and others will also join the cast of "The Trace of the Sky". It is also rare to get together tonight. After watching the movie, we found a place to have a late night snack.

In order to stay in shape, the two girls ordered a fruit salad and left it to eat.

Watching Zhou Yutang chatting with Hu Ge while playing skewers,
"The last scene was quite interesting. It felt like magic. How did you do it?"

"Special effects plus editing."

"Okay, what about the sequel?"

Zhou Yutang sighed: "Actually, when I first started working on this movie, I had already made a sequel plan. It was okay at the box office, and a sequel should be possible."

"What do you mean it's okay?"

Hu Ge was touched by someone in Versailles, and his expression twitched slightly: "Brother, the box office of my entire acting career combined is not as high as this movie, okay?"

It's only been three days since it was released.

The total box office is nearly 1.5 million.

There is no doubt that there is only one person involved this summer.

That is Zhou Yutang.

After finishing the supper, Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi said hello to Hu Ge and Tang Yan and left first.

"Leaving so soon?"

Tang Yan was a little reluctant to leave.

The main thing is that she has nothing to do when she goes home.

"Tangtang, let's meet again when we are free."

Liu Shishi hugged her best friend: "Tomorrow I will shoot a web game endorsement advertisement."

"What ad?"

"The web game of the same name as "Bu Bu Jing Xin" seems to be a game produced by Yu Tang Company, right?"

Hu Ge smiled and joked: "Boss Zhou, your business is getting bigger and bigger now. I heard that the one in Sister K's family is working for you."

When Tang Yan heard this, she started gossiping again.

Looking at Zhou Yutang, there was a strange light in his eyes.

Zhou Yutang took his mobile phone to reply to Mao Xiaoyu's message and arrange tomorrow's trip.

The film and television development rights of "Bu Bu Jing Xin" are jointly developed by Jiangdong Entertainment and Tangren Film and Television, but the game rights are in their own hands.

Turn the left hand into the right hand and leave it to Jiangdong Game Culture Company.

Making client games is more troublesome, but with the experience of "Jian Yu Jiang Hu", making web games is relatively simple.

There is no reason not to take advantage of this wave of ready-made traffic.

"Shi Shi, bye, I'll contact you when you get home."

After gossiping for a while, Tang Yan watched Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi get into the car and leave, feeling a little envious.

Since the premiere of "Bu Bu Jing Xin" in late June, the ratings have soared, although the ratings failed to break three.

But today, when TV ratings are getting more and more important, it is enough to be called the hit drama of the year.

The most important thing is that it brought unprecedented popularity to Liu Shishi.

When she debuted in the past, Cai Yinong even used the word "spiritually similar" to the fairy sister in her draft.

But after "Bu Bu Jing Xin" became a hit, it was natural not to mention those past events again.

this time.

Liu Shishi turned red to purple.

Millions of little lions are attacking everywhere, and they can compete with the fans who have a strong foundation on the Internet. Just think about it and you will know how powerful the fighting power is.

Liu Tianxian is a part of several phenomenal blockbuster dramas such as "The Sword", "The Condor", and "My Love from the Star".

Discuss the nationality.

Undoubtedly the No.1 Xiaohuadan of the new generation.

The health bar is so thick that it has no edges.

Liu Shishi is now the Xiaohuadan at the same level as Liu Tianxian, followed by Yang Mi, followed by Wang Luodan, Li Yao, Tang Yan, Zhao Liying and others.
Liu Shishi was busy, and Zhou Yutang was even busier.

Then there will be a road show to promote it, and we will go to Huacheng, Shencheng and other places early tomorrow morning.

Then return to the capital and attend the celebration banquet.

"What does the K organization in the easter egg do?"

"What!? There are Easter eggs in this movie?"

"No way, there won't be any big villain who leaves without seeing the last two easter eggs, right?"

"Upstairs, I am the big bastard you mentioned. I drank too much milk tea and was in a hurry to go to the toilet."

"It is recommended to go and have a look. Zhou Yutang dug another hole."

"Damn, I have to go to the second brush!"

"K organization, tarot cards, very interesting."

This commercial blockbuster, a collaboration between the two countries, can be said to have unprecedented publicity.

Offline and online, the news about this movie is overwhelming.

Especially when it comes to the discussion about easter eggs, someone actually made some clues from tarot cards.

"The Akai mentioned in the easter egg is the king of the K organization, and that card is the four images of the Major Arcana in the Tarot - lovers.

The Lover tarot card is a bit interesting. Many people have a deep misunderstanding of the Lover tarot card. Almost when they see a lover, they think of love. In fact, the lover means choosing Zhou Yutang. If a sequel is to be made, I think what should be told is the story of the K organization.”

"Yu Tang, the box office report from South Korea is out. In three days of release, the number of moviegoers was 3 million, which is much higher than the big shots. Why don't you go over there to promote it? There's a lot to do!"

Even Fan Binbin, who was eavesdropping next to him, could vaguely hear the joy in Han Sanping's voice coming from the phone.

"As for publicity, let's talk about it. After this is over, the focus will still be on the domestic market."

"Okay, we will decide other things when you come back. As busy as you are, you should also pay attention to your health. Remember, your body is the capital of your career."

"."

Fan Binbin couldn't stand Han Sanping's eager greetings to Zhou Yutang. He always felt that it was not consistent with his style of painting a mountain sculpture.

Just as she was about to come over to talk to Zhou Yutang, another big boss called.

Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Group could tell that the voice on the phone was very gentle: "Yu Tang, what are you going to do with the sequel to this movie?"

"Mr. Ren, your news is really good."

Zhou Yutang smiled helplessly.

While working on "A League of Thieves", the script for the sequel "Now You See Me" had already been written and filed. "The circle is so big."

Ren Zhonglun laughed: "It's still the same as before. If you have any conditions, just ask for them."

Fan Binbin was surprised.

He couldn't help but glance at the handsome profile of the man next to him.

Ren Zhonglun is very sincere.

Let him say this.

It's clear the two have a deep friendship.

Zhou Yutang did not agree immediately, and only said: "We have to communicate with Mr. Han about this matter, and wait until at least next year to do it. I have other plans this year, and if there are no surprises, I think it is okay."

There are no surprises, it's almost like they are inseparable.

Ren Zhonglun smiled very comfortably, and seemed to be a little interested: "What kind of plan is there? If there is a need for funds, Shanghai Film Studio can invest in it."

The Magic City is the economic center of the country, and the Shanghai Film Group is also famous for being extremely rich.

For him, money is not a problem, but how to improve the influence of Shanghai Film Group is the top priority.

"It's a small-budget literary film, so don't bother Mr. Ren."

Zhou Yutang laughed softly.

The movie "Search" doesn't have any big scenes, and the most important cost is his and Da Meiyuan's salary.

"What's the trouble with that."

Ren Zhonglun said with a hearty smile: "I heard that the box office of Xiangjiang, Bay Province, and Neon is pretty good, and the box office of South Korea is even bigger. This time the project is successful, and the bosses are also very proud."

The two continued to chat for a while, and then Zhou Yutang hung up the phone.

He also has a close relationship with the Shanghai Circle, and there are many exchanges of interests among them.

"Yu Tang, can I star in the sequel of this movie?"

At this time, Fan Binbin also came to his senses. On the way to the next road show, the two of them were alone in the car, and when they found the opportunity, they started coquettishly.

This movie has done amazingly well at the box office. If a sequel can be booked, it will undoubtedly help her consolidate her popularity as a top actress.

It felt like my arms were immersed in a warm and delicate place.

There was a faint fragrance coming from beside him. Zhou Yutang remained motionless. He just glanced at Fan Binbin lightly and shook his head: "The sequel tells another story. You are the heroine of the drama "The Thief". The settings are all solid and not suitable for the sequel, as it could easily throw the audience off."

"how about this?"

"Do you think you can sway me with just your beauty?"

Zhou Yutang said solemnly: "I'm very sad, Sister Binbin, you actually want to hide the rules for me. I told myself in good conscience that movies are just movies, pure art, and should not be mixed with any interests."

In fact, Zhou Yutang only likes young women who look girly.

It’s just that I played too crazy with Liu Shishi last night, and I was bitten by Liu Shishi’s good morning message again in the morning. Today I am in sage mode.
"Get away! Touch your own conscience."

Fan Binbin curled his lips and smacked his hand away rudely.

A woman who is mature enough is good.

Very sensible.

After a little trial and error, I realized that there was no hope of getting the role, so I stopped struggling.

Her schedule will be very busy next, with several advertising endorsements and shoots, and then "囧囧" will start filming, in which she will also make a guest appearance.

"This place has a nice scenery."

Another day of roadshows ended, and Zhou Yutang was lying on the hotel bed and scrolling on his tablet.

A series of landscape photos.

Slightly pondered.

The trestle bridge is slanting, reed flowers are rippling, wind chimes are swaying under the wooden house, and hundreds of birds are passing by on the lake.

The breeze blew through Gao Yuanyuan's black and beautiful hair, and the sunlight illuminated her smile, which became even more charming.

He seemed to already have that image in his mind.

"Hangcheng Bay National Wetland Park, consider this place as the first preliminary option."

Zhou Yutang read it several times and quickly made a plan. He sent a message to Lin Liang: "When my road show here is over, I will go over there and have a look."

Lin Liang was responsible for the location scouting for the movie "Search". He traveled around the country in the early stage and then photographed the locations that met Zhou Yutang's requirements.

In the end, he made the decision after personally surveying the location.

In fact, Ningbo is very close to Hangzhou and not far from the Magic City.

It's just that the film roadshow promotion plan is prepared in advance, one city per day, and the established plan cannot be disrupted.

"Director Zhou, did you ever expect that the box office of this movie would be so high? The box office revenue in a single day yesterday was 5200 million."

"It's a bit unexpected, but it's also reasonable. Last year's summer movie box office peaked at 9000 to [-] million in a single day. This year, the domestic film market has developed again, and the overall capacity will only be higher."

"So how do you feel now? How much box office do you expect for this movie?"

"It's still relatively peaceful."

Zhou Yutang smiled calmly and said: "For a commercial film, I have done everything I can do. This should be a relatively interesting story. As for the box office, I will leave it to the audience and the market to give the answer."

"Before making this movie, I didn't think about how much box office it would get. I just said that I wanted to be better than "Big Shot"."

"You really want to improve."

Sina's female reporter also laughed: "I also went to see this movie. It was really exciting. The Easter egg at the end left a deep impression on me. Now many netizens are discussing it on the Internet. It's inconvenient for you." Tell me, are there plans for a sequel?"

"The script for the sequel has been prepared. I am one of the leading actors. The rest cannot be disclosed for the time being."

Zhou Yutang chuckled and said: "But it will use more special effects and be more exciting than this movie. It will take a long time to prepare. I have other projects in hand, which may have to wait until next year."

Exclusive revelations!

Revealing the sequel to "Thieves"!
Isn’t this the headline news? ?

The female reporter's eyes shone: "I'm looking forward to it. I will definitely go to see it when the time comes. I also wish Director Zhou a further success in the box office."

"Thank you."

"Wait a minute, can I take a photo with you? I'm your fan."

"of course."

Sina's exclusive interview began to end, and Zhou Yutang agreed to the pretty female reporter's request for autographs and photos.

"Thieves" has performed extremely well since its release, sweeping almost all its opponents at the same time.

"Snowflake and the Secret Fan", which was planned for the domestic film and television industry by the wife of an American media tycoon, Wendi Deng, ended in failure.

Previously, a lot of press releases were issued, claiming that the film would be released in more than 30 countries and regions around the world, but it failed to complete the release period, and the final box office revenue was 3480 million.

On the other hand, another film "The God of Wealth Inn" by Fatty Wang has a box office of over 5000 million.

As for "Martial Arts", it caused a lot of turmoil and despite repeated hype, the box office still did not improve, with the daily box office falling below 1000 million.

The single-day box office of "Thieves" exceeded 5000 million. It was released for 5 days in the first week and grossed 2.95 million at the box office, setting a first-week box office record for Chinese films!

When Director Chen and his wife were at an event, they were scolded by a very unscrupulous entertainment reporter and asked,
"Ms. Wu, you said that Director Chen's "Martial Arts" will defeat Zhou Yutang's "Thieves" head-on and dominate the summer season. What do you think of the current box office?"

"."

Thirteenth sister was embarrassed.

That face was red and black.

The expression is very wonderful.

In the end, he turned around and walked away without even daring to fart.

"You ask me what I think? I don't have any special feelings. I can only say that fortunately I don't have a movie to be in this time."

When interviewed by the media, Feng Xiaogang spoke a bit too much and looked quite emotional: "I have never doubted Yu Tang's ability. He is very good at making commercial films. I have a hunch that an amazing record may be born in his life." It’s in hand.”

It’s not just Feng Xiaogang.

At this time, everyone inside and outside the circle was filled with great expectations.

Will Zhou Yutang's "A League of Thieves" be able to break the previous Chinese box office record held by "Big Shot"?
