China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 336

“It’s been a hard time for everyone during this period.”

The day after Zhou Yutang joined the crew, the crew ended work early and specially found a hotel to treat the creative team to dinner.

In addition to director Lu Yang, screenwriter Chen Shu, action directors Dong Wei and Sang Lin, director of photography Han Qiming and others are all there.

Jiangdong Entertainment also has a lighting engineer named Dong Wei.

The Viagra star started working on "Those Years", and later signed with Jiangdong Studio. After a few movies, he became a well-known lighting master in the industry.

This Dong Wei is a Dragon Tiger martial artist who came from Shaw Brothers and has become the top martial arts instructor in the industry.

I had collaborated with Zhou Yutang in the drama "Sword Rain".

We also keep in touch privately.

It was originally scheduled that Zhang Jing would lead the team as the martial arts director, but he was rushing to shoot on the set of "The Grandmaster" and then had to prepare for "Slaying the Wolf 2", so the schedule was really not available.

Then another martial arts instructor Sang Lin was invited.

The photography director of "Embroidered Spring Knife" is Han Qiming, a 05 senior in the Department of Photography, who is also a very capable photographer and has won professional awards.

Except for the director of photography, who has a good relationship with director Lu Yang, the rest of the crew and creators are all veterans in the industry.

This is Lu Yang's first big project. Although he just won the Golden Rooster Newcomer Director Award, his qualifications are slightly insufficient, so Zhou Yutang has to help him stand up.

Huang Xiaoming, who has just joined the cast, has a high emotional intelligence. He raised his glass of wine and enlivened the atmosphere: "We are destined to meet together and work hard together. This drama will definitely be a hit."

This auspicious word is sure to be loved by everyone.

Sang Lin is also an old man, and he knew the elegant meaning after hearing Xian Ge: "Director Lu really put his heart into it. The set of scene scripts was more than 280 pages long. When I saw it, I was shocked."

This is Yuan Kui's proud disciple, and he has inherited Yuan Kui's small-scenario fist and weapon fighting features.

He is very good at fighting in this kind of small scenes, and Zhou Yutang used his connections to find the martial arts fingers specially.

"Brother Sang Lin helped a lot."

Lu Yang was also very modest. He drank a ounce or two of white wine in the glass and drank it all in one gulp: "If there are any problems during filming in the future, please ask Brother Sang Lin and Wei Wei for their advice. Let's work together to make this movie a success."

More than a month before filming started, the two martial arts instructors were already discussing the action scene scripts with Lu Yang.

"Director Lu is so polite. The script is really great."

Dong Wei is also very considerate: "Moreover, Mr. Zhou never fails to star in a movie, and the box office will definitely be good."

"Come, come, let's all drink together."

Several people chatted happily about what happened on the set, and there was inevitably business talk between them.

We will be working together for the next two to three months, so it is important to develop a good rapport.

"Xiu Chun Knife" itself is a Jianghu drama, and the cast is basically made up of old men. In contrast, Liu Shishi is as charming as a flower, especially after drinking a little wine, she looks even more radiant.

In addition to Liu Shishi, there is also Gao Ye, who plays Wei Ting, the righteous daughter of Wei Zhongxian.

There was only one "very smooth" medical girl Zhang Yan, and this role was given to Zhang Jiao.

Three women in one play.

I don’t know how these three women became familiar with each other, and formed a small group with Liu Shishi as the center.

We had a great time together in the evening, but we only had a few drinks and no other activities were arranged.

Since there was a show tomorrow, after the dinner, they went back to the hotel.

Zhou Yutang was in front of the computer replying to Zou Zhongyan's email and communicating about the filming progress of "The Conjuring".

Only a beep was heard.

The hotel room door opened in response.

Then Liu Shishi's light figure flashed in and closed the door with a click.

Seemingly seeing Zhou Yutang working, Liu Shishi stood behind him without disturbing him and rubbed his shoulders with his little hands.

Zhou Yutang leaned against the softness on the back of his head, and the familiar fragrance drifted over. He quickly finished sending the email and hugged Liu Shishi's gentle body.

Put her on the sofa, and then lie on the sofa himself, with his head resting on Liu Shishi's thigh,

"I see you had a great time chatting with Gao Ye and Zhang Jiao today. When did you meet them?"

"you forgot?"

Liu Shishi took Zhou Yutang's hand and interlocked his fingers: "When Gao Ye was acting with Lao Hu in "Snow on Thousand Mountains", I went to visit the crew and added my contact information at that time. Ye Ye Ren Very good, she also said that there is a delicious hot pot restaurant and she is going to take me to eat there."

"The movie "Snow in Thousand Mountains" starring Ye Ye seems to be airing soon. She just said she was a little nervous. I comforted her for a long time."

"What about Zhang Jiao?"

"Jiaojiao is Liying's best friend."

Lying in Zhou Yutang's arms, Liu Shishi moved around and found the most comfortable position: "Jiaojiao is also very good. She has been a model before. I didn't know it. It turns out that she tried the drama "Those Years". She’s in great shape.”

That girl's figure is really plump

Of course, it just looks.

Zhou Yutang's eyes are rulers.

He suddenly discovered another advantage of Liu Shishi.

It seems that she has quite a good network of connections. As long as she is on the crew she has been on, basically the actresses have a good relationship with her.

Zhao Liying met Liu Shishi in "Those Years", and until now, the two have kept in touch and chatted often.

As they talked, the topic turned to Hu Ge again.

"I hope the ratings of that drama will be a big hit. Lao Hu has been in such a miserable state recently. The box office of "Revolution of [-]" was so low. I heard that he is almost depressed."

"Is it such an exaggeration?"

Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed.

But if you think about it carefully, this is indeed the case. Except for his guest appearance in "Big Shot", all of the movies starring Hu Ge fell apart, which is quite unfortunate.

"I heard what Sister K said."

Liu Shishi touched Zhou Yutang's arm: "I haven't seen Xiaoying's movie yet. Do you want to watch it together?"

"."

Zhou Yutang's mouth twitched slightly.

This movie is good, but I only watched it a few times after it was finished, and then again at the premiere. Before joining the group, I even went to the cinema to watch it with the beauty in Tsing Yi.

No matter how good the movie is, he can't bear it after watching it so many times.

"Let's go, let's go."

Liu Shishi, however, had Zhou Yutang under control. He came over and exhaled and said to Ruolan, "You come with me to see it. I promise to help you with that."

"Which is that?"

"hiss!"

Liu Shishi bit him on the arm. Zhou Yutang took a deep breath and picked up the phone without any hesitation: "Xiaoyu, reserve the venue."

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

"Love Is Not Blind" suddenly hit the box office on Singles' Day, but the box office inevitably fell on the fourth day. The box office on that day was 4 million, and the box office on the fifth day was 4365 million.

The box office revenue in the first weekend was 1.83 million, which was a huge success among Hollywood blockbusters such as "Iron Fist", "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" and "God of War".

Dark horse!

Following "The Lost Road" at the beginning of this year, another dark horse appeared.

The official Weibo of Jiangdong Entertainment clearly stated that the total cost of "Thirty-three Days of Love" was only 2000 million.

This cost includes shooting, post-production, publicity and other expenses.

According to this box office trend, this movie can achieve more than 10 times profit, making countless movie companies in the industry jealous.

"Yu Tang, I've made a lot of money this time."

On the way to the airport, Zhou Yutang also received a call from Li Shuang.

Sister Shuang probably didn't expect that such a small-budget comedy film with a not-so-big cast would have such results.

"Haha, Sister Shuang, the news about my movie can be announced to the public when I come back from South Korea."

"Okay, have you finished filming your scene in "Xiu Chun Knife"?"

"There are still a few scenes left, we have to wait until I come back to shoot them."

Zhou Yutang chuckled softly and said, "If anything happens here, you can handle it."

After simply handing over the work, there was still some time before boarding the plane, so I turned on my phone and started browsing the entertainment portal.

Several major entertainment portals are all filled with news about "Thirty-three Days of Love".

This dark horse that suddenly emerged is still going strong. The box office can make Jiangdong Entertainment a lot of money, and it has also brought considerable popularity to the two leading actors.

Zhang Ruojun, who has gained a lot of popularity through "Classmates", "Snow Leopard" and "Running Man", finally proved his acting skills and ability to handle the box office after "Love Is Not Blind".

The three-year selection of the top four junior and senior students has begun to warm up. Online voting has put him and his good brother Zhu Yilong in the top two positions without any suspense.

Another leading actor, Zhao Liying, first became a hit this year with "Shanshan Is Here", and then her role as Huang Xiaoxian in "[-] Days After Love" rose to the top. Now she is as popular as Li Yao.

The surge in popularity is followed by countless business endorsements, and the company's brokerage business can make a fortune.

It can be said that it is a win.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

A few days later, Zhou Yutang met Song Qian again.

She was still working as a translator for Li Xiuman at the original high-end restaurant in Jiangnan District, but she looked much more mature.

"It's been a while since we've seen each other."

Song Qian smiled and shook hands politely, acting very reserved.

She knew deep in her heart that at this time, the status of the two of them was very different, and they were no longer in the same world.

Even Li Xiuman was extremely polite when facing Zhou Yutang. The old man smiled so much that his face folded: "Congratulations, as a director, you have been nominated for the Blue Dragon Award for Best Film and Best Director."

Zhou Yutang also chuckled and said: "Congratulations to President Li too. Girls' Generation's album sold well in Neon, and now they are a popular girl group in Asia."

"Don't call me president."

Li Xiuman waved his hand and said with a smile: "I am getting old, so I have to give up my position to capable young people."

Zhou Yutang laughed in his heart.

This old fox stepped down from the position of president of SM Corporation and switched to controlling the company behind the scenes.

I haven’t seen this old man for a long time, but he is still so energetic. When he heard that Jiangdong Entertainment was going to launch a trainee business, he took the initiative to invite Zhou Yutang to visit SM Company.

"There are several Chinese people in the boy group EXO, which is about to debut, right?"

"Mr. Zhou, do you still understand this?"

"Zhang Yixing, Lu Han, Huang Zitao"

Before coming, he had listened to Pei Yun's work report.

He has a certain understanding of the specific process of trainee selection and group debut.

Song Qian was a little confused, then nodded and smiled: "These are all your fans. I would be very happy to know that you came to see them."
