Chapter 53: As long as you pay more, you can shoot Princess Sweet’s MV! [Ten thousand rewards plus updates]
The opening guest is Xue Zhixuan.
This man is quite capable.
After debuting on the talent show "My Style, My Show", the song "Serious Snow" became quite popular and even won the Top Ten Golden Melody Award on the Oriental Chart.
However, it seems that after this song, the career development was not smooth, and now it is half transparent.
When I saw Zhou Yutang, he kept his posture very low and called him "Teacher".
After a few simple greetings, we started putting on makeup.
This makeup artist was also arranged by the event party. She is a very mature sister in her thirties. She has big waves and her eyes sparkle when she sees Zhou Yutang.
After looking at it for a long time, she said with some envy: "Teacher Zhou, your skin is so good. You don't need to put on makeup at all. You can go directly to the camera. Do you want to put on a little lipstick?"
“No, just help me fix my hair.”
Unless filming requires it, Zhou Yutang never puts on makeup, and at most she only does hair styling for every event.
He also doesn’t have the semi-long hair that is popular nowadays, which is the non-mainstream style that covers the eyebrows. He just has a simple 40-60 parted hair with clear texture.
Pair it with a plaid shirt and jeans to look clean and fresh.
Fiddled with her hair according to Zhou Yutang's request, the makeup teacher marveled: "I have styled many famous celebrities in the industry, and you are much more handsome than them."
"Thank you. , but I don’t feel that I am very handsome.”
Zhou Yutang, who specially wore a pair of black-framed glasses today, looked somewhat elegant. He looked in the mirror with a calm expression.
Xue Zhixuan: "."
Chen Chen: "."
Backstage lounge, silence is tonight's Cambridge.
…………………………
"Qinbao, why hasn't it started yet?"
"Don't worry, the activity schedule says ten o'clock, so there should be no mistake."
A lot of people have gathered in the bookstore. However, Zhou Yutang, the real host, had not arrived yet. Li Yao frequently checked the time on his phone and tightly held the arm of his best friend Yaoyao.
“Pfft.”
Rich woman Yaoyao laughed.
"Why are you laughing?"
"Don't tell me to be anxious. You are more anxious than me. Are you checking your phone several times a minute?"
"You are not in a hurry."
Li Yao glanced around, pursed his lips and smiled: "The main reason is that I didn't expect so many people to come."
This new book signing event has not even started yet, and the queue waiting for the signing has already stretched. Forty or fifty meters away, there were hundreds of people behind, and as far as the eye could see, they were all black heads.
Li Yao felt a little lucky. If he hadn't come early today, he might have had to wait in line until his legs were broken.
"Zhou Yutang's popularity is really high now."
Yao Yao looked at the crowd of people around her, stood on tiptoes, took the camera and found an angle to start shooting.
"What's going on? Which star is coming? Such a big battle."
"Zhou Yutang's new book signing party."
"I know Han Han and Guo Xiaosi, who is Zhou Yutang?"
"The handsome guy is me, Zhou Yutang. Have you never heard of this? Isn't the village not connected to the Internet yet?"
"My husband is holding a new book signing event at the bookstore. Brother, can you let me come behind you?"
"You are a man, so get away from me!"
… ………………………
The bookstore was full of people watching the excitement, as well as some media reporters, and the flashlights lit up from time to time.
Suddenly there was a burst of exclamations in the venue. The host on the stage announced the start of the autograph session. Zhou Yutang also stood up from his seat and waved in all directions.
The assistant next to him, Xiao Wang, stuck out his tongue.
Wow, there are so many people.
It was dark and crowded.
She knew that before the autograph session, Sister Hong was afraid that her popularity would be low and the scene would be ugly, so she spent a lot of money to find a lot of support to enhance the atmosphere.
Now it seems completely unnecessary.
There are huge crowds of people.
Even the passage at the back was crowded with people, making the security uncle of the bookstore sweat profusely from his work.
The book signing begins.
Zhou Yutang waved and walked to the autograph booth to communicate with every reader in line.
These are all pre-determined processes. I just chat a few words, share a little bit about my creative process, and some interesting anecdotes I encountered during the creation, and then sign it to the readers.
After about an hour of seeing off a female fan, Zhou Yutang stretched his wrists and prepared to pick up the next guest.
A girl in a white shirt, holding a book in her hand, shouted excitedly: "Zhou Yutang! I am your idol!"
"."
Zhou Yutang was startled for a moment, then chuckled softly: "Hello, I am your fan, please sign for me."
He handed over the autograph pen in his hand, wearing a The girl in the white shirt took the signature pen and stood there helplessly, her mind went blank and everyone was confused.
There was silence for a few seconds, and then there was a burst of snickering.
In the end, Zhou Yutang signed her autograph. The girl in the white shirt was called Chen Sidan, which was a nice name.
The autograph session lasted for several hours, with a short break in between. At this time, it was Seol Zhixuan's turn to come out and sing live.
He is currently at a low point in his career, so he cherishes stage opportunities and spares no effort in performing.
Not only did he sing his famous song "Serious Snow" and several other songs in the album, but he also covered Zhou Yutang's TV series theme song of the same name "Want to See You Want to See You Want to See You" and "Anhe Bridge" .
The song "Want to See You" is a staple on the QQ music rankings, and "Anhe Bridge" is also a popular song recently.
I have to say.
Xue Zhixuan's singing skills are quite good, and his emotional interpretation is very good.
After the halftime performance, the autograph session continued, and finally it was Li Yao's turn with her best friend.
Yao Yao was very fast. After signing her name, she happily stepped back. When it was Li Yao's turn, Zhou Yutang looked at her a few more times.
Mainly, this girl with clear eyes, calm temperament, reminded him of Zeng Li, the beauty in Tsing Yi, the first sister of Jiangdong Film and Television Culture.
“Your name is Li Yan?”
“Yes.”
Li Yao was a little nervous.
The idol is more handsome in real life than in the camera!
While still smiling at her, Li Yao felt a little dizzy and his heart was trembling. He lowered his head and did not dare to look again.
"Come on, classmate Li Yao."
Zhou Yutang signed his name in a hurry, and then agreed to the girl's request for a photo.
"Don't be nervous."
When Biye tilted his head and posed for a photo, he could almost hear the girl's pounding heartbeat. Zhou Yutang comforted him with a gentle smile.
There was still a queue of people behind, and the autographs ended quickly. Yaoyao looked at Li Yao's group photo, feeling envious and regretful at the same time: "Oh, I was so happy that I forgot to take a photo with the governor. "
Li Yao looked over and over at the group photo on his phone. His gestures looked silly, but Zhou Yutang was really handsome.
"Yan Bao, I just heard you talking to Zhou Yutang. What did you say?"
"Hehe!"
Miss Li Yao said with a silly smile: "He said, come on, classmate Li Yao."
………………………………
The autograph session is finally over.
Not much else, Zhou Yutang felt that his hands were a little sore.
Two pens were scrapped, and each one was signed by Zhou Yutang. Even an iron man couldn't bear it.
In the evening, the organizer held a banquet at a hotel in Shanghai to celebrate the success of the book signing event. Zhou Yutang met many friends in the cultural industry.
The more famous ones include Teacher Long Yi from the Tianchao Writers Association and several authors from the Zhejiang Writers Association.
Zhou Yutang is considered a junior. Although he is more popular than these seniors and is still a popular star recently, he did not put on any airs. He took turns to toast and drank a few more with Teacher Long Yi. cup.
China is like this, the wine table culture has a long history. As soon as the wine was drunk, Teacher Long Yi, who was a little serious at first, put his arms around Zhou Yutang's shoulders and called him brother.
When modern literati get together, they don't just recite poems, they just talk about creation.
After finishing the meal, the several coquettish authors hit it off immediately, and after dinner they went straight to the club to press their feet for inspiration
Zhou Yutang righteously rejected the invitations of several brothers.
He has to catch a flight back to Beijing.
…………………………
Return to the capital.
Invitations to various events come one after another.
As Zhou Yutang’s manager, Sister Shuang is really enjoying herself recently.
Watching Zhou Yutang become more famous with my own eyes gives me an overwhelming sense of accomplishment. Recently, many film crews have sent invitations. Zhou Yutang read the scripts and rejected them all.
Basically, they are all small projects below A level. The characters are not outstanding, and it is not interesting to take them.
In this industry, it doesn’t mean that you can rise to the top by doing more dramas and having more experience. The most important thing is actual performance. You must have works that are good and recognized by the audience.
However, this is also a good thing.
The large number of invitations at least shows that Zhou Yutang is very popular.
He has officially shown his prominence in this circle.
"Yu Tang, what do you think of this new female singer's MV invitation to shoot the male protagonist?"
"Didn't you refuse?"
Zhou Yutang and Sister Shuang were talking about work.
Just kidding, with his current traffic and celebrity status, he may not be as good as the first-line stars, but he is still a popular niche.
The name Zhou Yutang is still in the top ten of Baidu Entertainment Hot Search List, and his two songs are also in the top ten of QQ Music Chart!
Let him carry the sedan chair for a new female singer?
No such possibility.
So when he received the invitation to be the male lead in the new singer’s MV, Zhou Yutang refused without even thinking about it, even though the other party offered him a price of 500,000.
"I think if you don't take a look, the other party has increased the money again, this time asking 1 million."
Sister Shuang said quietly: "I think it is very sincere."
"..."
Zhou Yutang was a little shocked.
Before filming "I Want to See You", Zeng Li's salary for a TV series was only a few hundred thousand, while A-list stars only received a salary of one to two million for a movie.
This is the male protagonist who directly spent 1 million on himself as the MV.
Not only is it sincere, it is simply too sincere!
Are all rich people today so willful?
Zhou Yutang is very cautious. He suspects that someone is trying to mess with him: "Sister Shuang, please find out more about the specific shooting content. Isn't it something inappropriate for children?"
"This Don’t worry, I’ve already inquired with people in the industry. This company was newly opened two years ago, but the boss is very powerful and is ready to spend money to develop the film and television industry. It’s impossible to do what you think.”< br>
“That can be discussed.”
Zhou Yutang still nodded.
As long as you add money, I can negotiate and shoot the MV...
Next, Sister Shuang stepped in and the matter was quickly settled.
Zhou Yutang accepted the order and spent 1 million to star in the new female singer's music video. He also met the boss of the Starlight Film and Television Company who spent money.
Well, he has a Chinese character face, a short haircut, and a POLO shirt tucked into the waistband of his suit. He looks like a dignified man in a position of power.
Beside Mr. Lu, there was also a beautiful girl with an oval face and big eyes.
"Hello, Mr. Lu!"
Zhou Yutang greeted politely.
I read the information collected by Sister Shuang before coming here. Mr. Lu is very powerful.
"Yes, you are young and handsome. You are the most popular and prominent person recently."
Mr. Lu looked at Zhou Yutang for a few times and nodded with satisfaction, as if he felt that he had spent the money Very worth it.
"Just call me Yu Tang, Mr. Lu." Zhou Yutang smiled brightly.
"Yu Tang, let me introduce you. This is Jing Tian, the daughter of an old friend of mine. Now she wants to enter the entertainment industry, so I asked someone to help her make a music EP."< br>
Music EP refers to the abbreviation of mini album, commonly known as a small disc, which contains fewer songs and is sold at a cheaper price.
"You can listen to the song later. In the MV, Tiantian plays the heroine and you play the male lead. The specific shooting will follow the director's arrangements. Is there no problem?"
"There is no problem. .”
As long as the money is in place, there is no doubt about Zhou Yutang's professionalism.
"Well, you get to know Tiantian first. I have a meeting to hold here. If you have anything to do, just talk to the assistant directly. Tiantian can also make the decision."
Lu He said something, then patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder, turned around and told the sweet girl to work harder as an elder.
"Thank you, Uncle Lu, I will try my best."
The oval-faced beauty smiled peacefully, showing her small millet teeth, and her big eyes were curved into crescent moons.
After Mr. Lu left, Miss Jing Tian shook hands with Zhou Yutang proactively and generously, blinked her big eyes, and looked at Zhou Yutang curiously:
"Zhou Yutang, you are more handsome than on TV."
"Thank you."
Facing the little rich woman's compliment, Zhou Yutang responded with a bright smile, which made the girl Tiantian feel dizzy.
The two of them weren’t very familiar with each other, and they didn’t chat for too long.
Next, Jingtian sent over several songs and music videos related to this album.
Zhou Yutang was shocked when he saw it.
How do I put it...
There are three songs in this music EP. The person who wrote the song for Jing Tian is the queen of the pop music world...
In addition, the director who shot the MV for the title song of the same name "Who Are You" is Zhou Yutang's senior at the Capital Film Academy, and he is also the dark horse director Ning Hao who made a name for himself in the industry last year with the movie "Crazy Stone"...
What kind of top-notch luxury lineup is this?
Newcomers’ debut music EP, created by a team of top music producers, plus a new generation of powerful directors who are well-known in the industry, plus the most popular niche actor Zhou Yutang as the leading actor...
Could it be Is this the right way for newcomers in the entertainment industry to debut?
Zhou Yutang said it was an eye-opener.
In short, the matter has been settled, and the assistants sent by Mr. Lu have made arrangements. A table has been set up at the five-star hotel in Beijing tonight. The main purpose is to invite the MV shooting team to get together and create some hype. .
Zhou Yutang nodded readily and agreed. He also liked the movie "Crazy Stone" and wanted to meet senior brother Ning Hao.
In the evening, Zhou Yutang met senior brother Ning Hao as he wished.
Ning Hao is a senior in the directing department. He is not handsome, with a popular face and a slightly high hairline.
When he is not smiling, he is fine, and he looks a bit like a simple and honest farm boy, but when he smiles and matches the small gold chain around his neck, he feels a bit treacherous.
“Hello, handsome guy.”
When he saw Zhou Yutang, Senior Brother Ning Hao grinned and came up to shake hands and hug him very familiarly.
We are both from the Film Academy, so we are naturally close to each other.
"Hello, Senior Brother Ning."
Zhou Yutang also smiled helplessly.
This is a very popular meme on the Internet right now.
After the character "The handsome guy is me, Li Ziwei" in the TV series "Want to Meet You" became popular, many students followed suit and used correction fluid to write "The handsome guy is me" on the shoulder straps of their schoolbags, and then there were Netizens joked, "I am the handsome guy Zhou Yutang", and unexpectedly it became a buzzword on the Internet.
Zhou Yutang has inexplicably become synonymous with handsome guys.
That night, the MV shooting team had a meal in the hotel, chatted by the way, and left a pretty good initial impression on each other.
Miss Jing Tian is very satisfied with the golden lineup of Ning Hao + Zhou Yutang. Ning Hao and Zhou Yutang are also very satisfied with the generous rich woman...
In short, Qin Shi Huang touched the switch and won. Numb.
The next day, Zhou Yutang saw the true power of Qian's ability.
The photos of him, Ning Hao and Jing Tian in the same frame were directly on the headlines of several entertainment portals.
[Crazy director Ning Hao secretly met with popular niche actor Zhou Yutang to discuss cooperation. Newcomer Jing Tian is suspected of starring in the heroine of director Ning Hao's new film! 】
【Hotel staff exclusively broke the news! Director Ning Hao is casting for the new film, tapping potential newcomer Jing Tian, and Zhou Yutang will be the leading actor! 】
This is not only the portal websites, but also the entertainment section of the newspaper.
It turns out that if you have money, you can really do whatever you want?
Zhou Yutang also received a call from Starlight Film and Television Company and explained to him in advance that this wave of hype is mainly for the sake of popularity and to build momentum for Jing Tian’s debut. When the music comes out, there will be another wave. , and then Zhou Yutang and Ning Hao will need to cooperate.
Understood!
Zhou Yutang was very professional and said that he would definitely cooperate.
There is absolutely no problem in collecting money to do things without involving your own interests.
Perhaps it was because the press release was well written, but director Ning Hao did have plans for a new film recently, so many viewers were attracted by the news.
Holy crap, Ning Hao + Zhou Yutang, did they start it?
There is also this newcomer Jing Tian, who seems to be an amateur. I don’t know where she came from, but the girl is pretty good-looking.
After this series of operations, not to mention anything else, attention and traffic are directly in place.
As an amateur who has not yet entered the entertainment industry, Jing Tian frequently appears in entertainment news and is even more popular than some celebrities in the short term.
Most of the audience are also people who have fun, and their thoughts are very direct and simple - this girl Jing Tian is very good-looking.
Of course, the Leziren audience only knows this girl through gossip news now. As for whether they will remember her in the future, that’s another matter.
Senior Brother Ning Hao also knows the rules very well. He did not come out to explain to the media at the first time. Instead, he waited until the entertainment reports were fermented before he stood up and said:
"You have such a rich imagination, misunderstanding Well, it’s not a casting for my new film. What I want to shoot is the MV for Jing Tian’s debut as a newcomer. Zhou Yutang is the male protagonist of this MV..."
Then, Zhou Yutang also told the media that he is very He is looking forward to cooperating with Miss Jing Tian and is very optimistic about her prospects. This girl is beautiful, generous and kind, which left a deep impression on him...
With such a smooth operation, Jing Tian's personal debut music EP has already gained a certain amount of attention even before it was released.
A few days later.
With proper preparations in the early stage, the MV shooting has officially begun!
