Entertainment: I really want to make progress - #509 - Chapter 509 Time is also fate, the power is about to start

At the premiere.

Miss Liu and Zhou Xun were chatting happily.

But after watching the movie, the whole person suddenly became a little quiet.

Seeing Zhang Songwen’s life in the movie being destroyed bit by bit by real public opinion, Liu Yifei felt the same way.

She was subjected to online violence and the overwhelming amount of negative information was an unimaginable pressure for a young girl.

It’s just that she never shares this negative emotion with her friends around her, including Shu Chang, and even Aunt Liu – it’s already difficult for her mother to be such a dragster, right?

She said that from now on she would only live for herself.

Liu Yifei didn’t want her to worry more, so she just suffered it silently.

At most, I would hide in my bed and cry secretly at night when no one was around.

So much so that for a long time, the self-protection mechanism was activated, making her somewhat invisible and alienated from the world.

Apart from Zhou Yutang’s side, Liu Yifei gradually felt that her world had regained its color.

The applause of the audience, the host’s words, and Zhang Yimou’s deep and powerful voice on the stage.

It’s barely audible.

Everyone was looking at the stage, including Zhou Yutang.

No one noticed, Liu Yifei just turned her head and looked at the clear and stern side face next to her.

Xiao Zhou would always be there when she needed him, and Liu Yifei suddenly felt a very warm feeling.

“Let’s go.”

Zhou Yutang, who had been crossing his legs, suddenly stood up. Liu Yifei was a little surprised and tugged on a corner of his shirt: “Xiao Zhou, it’s not over yet.”

“It’s okay, I said hello.”

Zhou Yutang quietly evacuated with Liu Yifei nonchalantly.

The procedures for the premiere have already been arranged, including reporters from various media and powerful professional film critics in the circle.

Today’s protagonists are Lao Mouzi and Zhang Songwen, and Li Shuang also arranged a reception for them in the evening.

Liu Yifei followed Zhou Yutang away obediently. Listening to his jokes, she unconsciously became happy.

The corners of his mouth also quietly pursed into a soft arc.

Sometimes she felt that she was not smart enough and could not tell what Xiao Zhou was thinking.

But Xiao Zhou is extremely observant. He must have seen that his mood was not right, so he tried every means to make himself happy.

“Xiao Zhou, what is this?”

After getting in the car, when Zhou Yutang put a string of crystal bracelets on her wrists, surprise appeared on Liu Yifei’s beautiful face.

“A gift.”

Zhou Yutang played with the fairy’s little hand, as if admiring a piece of exquisite art, and nodded: “Ni Ni has a good taste.”

“You and Gao Yuanyuan were shopping in Xiangjiang, and you took Ni Ni with you?”

“Yeah, she thinks this bracelet suits you very well.”

“Then thank her for me.”

Liu Yifei looked at her bright wrist, which was like frost and snow, reflecting the brilliant light, and she obviously liked it very much.

Her English name is crystal.

After Aunt Liu gave her the first crystal little red riding hood on a birthday, she fell in love with crystal jewelry.

Zhou Yutang often travels various places on business and never forgets to buy such gifts for himself.

If you don’t have the intention, how can you remember it?

“Xiao Zhou, why do you like me?”

His arms were hugged by the angel beside him, and he fell into the soft and delicate place. Zhou Yutang finally waited for the classic soul question.

Although Liu Yifei is a little prettier than ordinary girls, she is also a girl who grew up in a single-parent family and is a bit sensitive and insecure.

“Maybe that day on the set of The Condor.”

Zhou Yutang’s deep eyes were filled with contemplation, and he blurted out without hesitation: “I can’t help myself when I see you wearing a white dress.”

The little dragon girl, dressed in a white dress and looking cold and pure, is indeed the white moonlight in the hearts of countless teenagers.

“It was almost too hot at that time, and the whole hair weighed 6 pounds. It was so painful that my scalp was pulled when I wore it!”

Liu Yifei cooed and made a milky sound without realizing it.

“I feel very sad when I think about being robbed of 1,000 yuan by that piece of shit.”

“puff!”

Listening to Zhou Yutang’s somewhat depressed tone and thinking of his unknown dark history, Liu Yifei burst into laughter.

Zhou Yutang always has the ability to make people happy. Liu Yifei’s mood is not so low anymore, and she is chattering about her recent affairs in the martial arts school.

“Super Body” will be launched soon. During this time, Miss Liu is making final training preparations under the leadership of a professional team.

Time is tight and the task is heavy.

She also attached great importance to this opportunity, so she even declined invitations to two award ceremonies in Xiangjiang.

Even when I was quietly leaning in Zhou Yutang’s arms, I was a little excited, but suddenly I felt a little sad for no reason: “Xiao Zhou, do you think I can play this role well by then?”

From human to god, Liu Yifei herself liked this script very much.

“To tell my conscience, you are completely able to control it.”

“Hmph, can you please touch your own conscience!?”

Zhang Songwen went from being a bit player for several years to becoming the best actor in Berlin, which is a kind of progress.

Lao Mouzi crowned Berlin with “Hunting”, just like the old swordsman in “Snow”, he returned to his peak.

Liu Yifei has also made great progress, not only in her acting skills, but also in the planning and development of her acting career, as well as her own vision.

Next to Zhou Yutang, she saw a different world.

“Zhang Yimou won the Berlin Golden Bear Award for his film “The Hunt”, which grossed 35.32 million at the box office on its first day of release!”

Xue Xiaolu’s “Introduction to Architecture” had just finished singing, and then the National Master took the stage.

When it comes to box office appeal, Teacher Xue is still inferior to Guoshi.

After the premiere, various domestic film critics immediately published reviews, which can be said to have received rave reviews.

This movie, which brings together the two golden brands of Zhou Yutang and Zhang Yimou, immediately topped the theaters’ film schedule after its release, detonating the film market.

It was scheduled to be released in mid-April. It was also after an internal meeting at Soochow Pictures that Zhou Yutang made the decision personally.

The choice of movie schedule is particularly important.

The movie “National Master” is limited by its subject matter. In addition, this year’s May Day movie has a lot of heroes coming out, and there is also the “Iron Man 3” that is eyeing it.

“The national master is the national master, and the sword is not old.”

“Director Zhang Yimou + screenwriter Zhou Yutang = a classic, you might as well watch it.”

“I’ll go, Lao Mouzi is so fierce. Are you going to break the box office record for literary films?”

“Du Qifeng was a bit unlucky. “Drug War” was also good, but it was a pity that he encountered a monster.”

Hairun Film and Television has also begun to gradually expand its film business in recent years, so it threw an olive branch to Hong Kong director Du Qifeng.

This “Drug War” is a Chinese-language police and gangster film directed by Du Qifeng and starring Sun Honglei and Louis Koo.

The scale is staggering.

The flour seller played by Gu Tianle can be said to be dehumanized and extremely vicious.

The anti-narcotics agent played by Sun Honglei successfully challenged domestic censorship standards. Unfortunately, the box office on the first day was only 11.2 million, which was not satisfactory.

Not as good as “The Hunt”, not even as good as The Cook and the Actor.

This movie starring the three best actors Huang Bo, Liu Huohua, and Zhang Hanyu has an extremely strong box office. The box office exceeded 200 million in two weeks, and the box office in a single day was 12 million.

When “Introduction to Architecture” was released, he was the second child. He took over the stage in “Hunting”, and its single-day box office still ranked second in the same period.

As for those imported blockbusters, the total box office of “Oz: Oz” exceeded 100 million, and it became unsustainable. The single-day box office dropped to about 2 million.

“Giant Killer”, “Die Hard” and “Resident Evil” are all about to be released soon. The release of the premiere box office of “The Hunt” proves that Zhou Yutang made the right move.

Right now, it will take at least half a month to develop and wait for word of mouth to ferment.

Nortel classroom.

Zhou Yutang stood on the podium and talked.

Han Jianu, who had come to see the world, was stunned for a moment.

From film masters such as the Lumiere brothers and Méliès, we talk about multiple exposures of special films, the marketing of modern films, and then to the modern film industry and special effects.

She even felt something familiar.

Wait, isn’t this the way Old Han talks to his men on the phone at home?

Anyway, I talked about the scene one by one, and at the end I was very humble and didn’t forget to ask the teachers for their corrections.

Han Jia’v was muttering in her heart.

The old professors from the film school below nodded frequently.

The smiles as bright as chrysanthemums were filled with satisfaction and pride in capital letters.

“The future life is terrible.”

Sincerity and humility are qualities more precious than talent.

Zhou Yutang spoke sincerely, and while talking about movies, he seemed to put himself in the position of a junior in the film school, which was very useful to these old professors.

The soldiers we taught are so strong!

Seeing Zhou Yutang come out after shaking hands with the old professors one by one, Han Jianu’s expression twitched: “Director Zhou, did your postgraduate defense defense seem a bit too easy?”

“I just made a movie called “Now You See Me,” and several teachers recognized it and even awarded me a certificate for outstanding graduates.”

“You are awesome!”

Han Jia’v almost fainted and slowly uttered two words.

Everyone was extremely nervous during the graduation defense, as if they were going to the execution ground and fighting with bayonets.

But luckily for you, reaching the top of Asia is a complete dimensionality reduction blow!

Zhou Yutang, who finally graduated and entered the society, felt a little melancholy.

Looking at the youthful and energetic faces of the girls in the school, it seems like just yesterday they stuffed themselves little notes.

The young man entered the martial arts world without a proper sword, and unexpectedly he was about to become a martial arts leader.

Zhou Yutang took Ni Ni on a trip to America.

Although Zou Zhongyan is watching over there, he, the big boss behind the scenes, must of course be well aware of the projects there.

“Zhou, the post-production of “Annabelle” is already in production, and the promotion plan has been arranged. It is expected to be released in June.”

“I have no objection, I believe you.”

After several cooperations, the old man was very happy to make money, initial trust had been established, and Zhou Yutang was doing everything he could.

“Okey Okey, if we join forces from now on, there will be gold all over Hollywood, waiting for us to dig out it.”

Bob gave Zhou Yutang a firm hug, his grin almost reaching behind his ears.

He is also a veteran who has been in Hollywood for decades and has excellent professional abilities.

There is a saying in the film and television industry that the director has an idea of ​​the quality of a movie halfway through filming.

The same goes for producers.

Bob worked on both The Conjuring films.

At a glance, it is obvious that Old John’s skill is much inferior to that of James Wan.

But this movie is at least an above-average horror movie.

Moreover, with the golden signature of The Conjuring series, the sequels will definitely bring crazy profits.

“Bob, are the rights to Godzilla owned by Warner?”

“Choke, you are so well informed. Legendary Pictures purchased the remake rights of “Godzilla” in 2010. Now the project has started and casting is in progress. I believe it won’t be long before this legendary monster will be in the movie. Reborn on screen.”

“Bob, can the diva work.”

“Of course, let me find out for you. It shouldn’t be a big problem.”

As if he wanted to show off his connections and abilities in front of his collaborators, Bob agreed without much thought, and also revealed a piece of information: “The new president of Warner, he is quite interested in you.”

“I’m only interested in beautiful women.”

Zhou Yutang raised the red wine glass and clinked it with Bob, with a smile on his face.

Bob also smiled and joked: “You are very similar to that guy Leon, equally romantic, but he has gained weight now and is not as handsome as you. If you were in Hollywood, you would definitely make those girls not get along. leg.”

The two chatted about movies for a while, and then Bob said curiously about “Dallas Buyers Club”: “Zhou, with all due respect, the movie you invested in doesn’t look like a reliable project. “

It’s really unreliable. Just a few days after the movie started shooting, the investors immediately withdrew their investment and ran away.

This is a sign that investors have no confidence in the project.

Zhou Yutang smiled mysteriously: “You will know in the future.”

“Zhang Yimou’s “Hunting” grossed 95.25 million at the box office in its first week, ranking first on the weekend box office list. Director Du Qifeng’s “Drug War” ranked second, with a box office of 53.8 million.”

Continuing to lead the April movie box office, Guoshi has been quiet for several years, which can be said to be elated.

According to the box office sharing agreement he signed with Soochow Pictures, this is also a regular contract for top directors in the industry.

Just from this one movie, Lao Mouzi made more money than he did after working with Zhang Weiping for several years.

Of course, Lao Mouzi gained both fame and fortune, and Zhou Yutang definitely did not lose out either.

He has already made a small profit just by buying out the copyright of the movie. There is not much pressure on the domestic box office, so much of it is in vain.

As for Sir Du, that would be miserable.

This “Anti-Drug” is spearheaded by Hairun and boasts a huge investment of 180 million. Although the weekend box office bucked the trend, the film’s reputation is also good.

But according to this box office trend, it is undoubtedly a loss-making film.

All I can say is that time is destiny.

“Super Body” started filming, and the news that Liu Yifei joined the cast in advance spread back to China, and soon appeared on various entertainment portals.

“Glory of the Tang Dynasty” by another popular female star, Princess Tian, ​​is also about to come to an end.

In the end, the ratings of the TV series were even higher than 2. It can be regarded as a popular costume drama at the moment. While Jing Tian consolidated his status as a celebrity, Zhu Yilong also gained a wave of popularity.

At this time, Zhou Yutang, who returned to China, was involved in the casting controversy for the drama “The Condor”.

This is Jin Yong’s popular martial arts ip, and Yu Zheng Studio has already started to hype it after “The Swordsman” ended.

At that time, he called Zhou Yutang in a very low profile.

The purpose is also to hype.

This guy probably drew inspiration from Zhang Dabeard’s way of doing things. Every time there was a scene to be performed, he couldn’t help but make a fuss.

This time, Bo Da came: “”The Legend of the Condor Heroes” will invite Li Yao to play the role of Xiao Longnu and Jia Jingwen to play Huang Rong, and is in contact with Zhou Yutang. We are just waiting for the other party’s nod. Yang Guo is waiting for his role, and it is possible to return to the role. Now celebrating more than 10 years of CP.”

As soon as the news was released, the entire entertainment industry exploded.

“April Fool’s Day has passed long ago. What kind of international joke are you making? Zhou Yutang is going to act in Yu Zheng’s play!?”

“One glance at the hype, and it’s Yu Zheng’s old routine.”

“However, it would be perfect if Zhou Yutang could play Liu Yifei’s version of Yang Guo.”

Some netizens even used PS to splice together the version of Zhou Yutang and Liu Yifei’s Little Dragon Girl.

Not to mention, there is a perfect match and an indescribable sense of harmony.

Yu Zheng’s wave of hype actually aroused cynicism from many Jiangdong naval officers.

In fact, Yu Zheng Studio’s own artist management business is not very good. It was revealed before that it would use its own actress Yuan Shanshan to play the role of Xiao Long Nv. As a result, netizens collectively complained.

In terms of image, temperament, etc., compared to Li Ruotong and Liu Yifei in previous versions, they are far behind.

Anyway, Chen Xiao’s Yang Guo has been pre-decided a long time ago. For the role of Xiao Longnu, Yu Zheng is working with Bay Province Capital, and there is a high probability that the actress will be promoted there.

This time, Yu Zheng used the tiger’s skin as a banner to promote the situation, attracting black and red traffic. When the heat increased, both parties would come forward to issue clarifications.

Li Shuang and Zhou Shufang are responsible for this kind of thing.

Zhou Yutang didn’t care either.

Anyway, there are many people using his traffic, not more than one person.

Besides, this guy is really good at licking.

Chen Xiao and Zhao Liying both acted in many dramas produced by his studio.

Furthermore, all marketing press releases issued there must be handed over to Jiangdong Entertainment and handed over to the public relations department for review and evaluation.

No matter the scale or flow, it must be grasped just right.

Before the filming of “Ghost Blowing the Lamp” started, Zhou Yutang gathered the crew and creators for a meeting in Beijing.

I don’t know if he was influenced by Han Sanping, but he also likes to call people for meetings before advancing projects.

The purpose is of course not to be polite, but to promote mutual familiarity among the entire crew.

After all, we are going to work together for several months, so we need to have some tacit understanding with each other to facilitate the progress of the project.

Seeing the main creators, Zhou Yutang nodded with satisfaction.

What is the quality of an actor?

That’s Chen Minghao.

Because of the needs of the role, the fat man in the original work can go up to the sky to embrace the moon, and to swim across the five oceans to catch turtles. He looks down at thousands of people with cold eyebrows, bows his head and is willing to be a bully, and his own physical strength is quite strong.

He has silently gained nearly 20 pounds, and now he has a strong look on his face. The Bull Demon King is back again.

“Director Xu Ke, whom I believe everyone is familiar with, will serve as the producer and art director of this film.”

“This is Guo Fan, who is also the deputy director of this film.”

Zhou Yutang introduced Xu Ke, Guo Fan and others to the crew and creators.

The art director invited Hao Yi.

This person is a disciple of Cai Chonghui, Ma Jinxiang, Chen Junjie, and Bao Dexi. He has written “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”, “Flying Swords of Dragon Gate”, and “Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons”.

In terms of ability, he is definitely the best in the industry.

He was also recommended by Xu Ke to join the team.

Except for him, the editor used golden scissors Du Yuan

The overall planning, handheld console, lighting, equipment, costumes, makeup, martial arts, special effects, etc. are all at the top level in the industry.

As for the actors, Liu Huohua and Chen Minghao are classmates. After being classmates for several years, they are already familiar with each other in private, which saves them from getting in touch – after all, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang also have a close relationship.

Gulinazha and Dilraba, sisters from Northern Xinjiang, are as close as sisters on the surface.

Everyone knows that this is the young actress that Jiangdong Entertainment will be promoting, so their attitude is naturally polite.

The remaining Xia Yu is the best actor, and his acting skills are definitely no problem.

What’s interesting is that Zhou Yutang invited a foreign actor this time.

That is to say, at the beginning of the movie, the big gold tooth played by Xia Yu pulls the fat man into the sea and fools the foreigners.

“This is the 82nd generation successor of the Mojin Colonel named Captain Mo by Cao Cao in the late Eastern Han Dynasty!”

It can be regarded as an Easter egg in the movie. This foreigner who was deceived is called Cao Cao in Chinese, and he is a popular up host at Station B.

This guy is obviously from America, but he can speak authentic Beijing movies.

“Director Zhou, I think many foreigners have always misunderstood the Chinese culture. They have no idea what the world is like now.”

“I post videos about Chinese culture on YouTube, and many foreigners are interested. Station B is also a good video platform. I plan to make cultural exchange content.”

Good guy, just like a stand-up comic, he started talking about home affairs.

Brother, have you forgotten that you are also a foreigner?

Zhou Yutang was a little dumbfounded, but also found the person quite interesting, and showed corresponding respect to this international friend.

With him as the thread, several people chatted and laughed, and the overall atmosphere of the crew was very good.

“Producer Chen will send everyone the shooting plan for this time. The location scenes on the grassland will be shot first. At that time, director Guo Fan will lead the team to set off first, and then transfer to Huairou Film and Television Base.”

Everyone listened attentively to Zhou Yutang’s words.

After the meeting ended, everyone was slightly excited.

Zhou Yutang specially kept Dilraba here and waved: “Reba, come and sit.”

“Boss, what do you want from me?”

For some reason, Dilireba’s crystal-white ears gradually turned red, but she still sat down next to Zhou Yutang obediently.

“I heard from Sister Fang that you have been practicing very hard during this period?”

“It’s not bad, there are just a few more professional courses.”

Zhou Yutang definitely didn’t ask Di Lieba to stay alone to do bad things.

The main thing is to encourage and affirm.

When he is filming, he has very high demands on actors.

Dilireba must be mentally prepared in advance.

If you follow him, then the filming progress will definitely come first.

Among the leading actors, Liu Huohua, Chen Minghao and Xia Yu are all extremely professional actors.

Only Dilraba has a slight weakness, similar to Gulinazha when filming “Now You See Me”.

When Zhou Yutang told Gulinazha about the scene for a long time, she responded with a yes.

There was clarity in those eyes, and he probably just wanted to find a chance to hang out with his good brother.

“Boss, don’t worry.”

Reba’s understanding is higher than that of Nazha. She probably understood Zhou Yutang’s thoughts and cheered up her arms lively: “No matter how intense the work is, I will have no problem. It’s just that my acting skills are not good. Then I may have to You took so much trouble.”

After Xue Liyang in the original work became a mountain-moving Taoist, she had the heroic spirit of a woman who would not be inferior to a man.

Therefore, Zhou Yutang has extremely strict requirements for Dilraba’s body shape.

After the angle was determined, a professional team was immediately arranged to develop a complete training plan for Dilraba.

All other schedules had to make way for this project, and Reba was also very cooperative and obedient. After exercising during this period, compared to the thin and sickly beauty of many actresses, she has a more heroic look on her body. Feel.

Compared with Nazha, who is cold, sweet and different, Reba is cheerful and bright, but also reveals a bit of coquettishness.

“When the time comes, if you have anything you don’t understand about acting, just ask.”

“Thank you, boss.”

“Well, you go back first, I have a meeting to hold.”

The two of them had a tacit understanding, and no one mentioned what happened that day.

But some things have happened after all.

When Wen Nuan’s eyes met, Reba was like a frightened deer, trotting out with her bag in hand.

Zhou Yutang glanced at him.

Only the shadow of her buttocks was visible.

Very warped.
