Chapter 98 is a bit of a dick [10,000 updates please subscribe]
“No, Brother JAY, there are paparazzi!”
Two groups of light erupted from behind Dani’s lenses, instantly erupting with a figure similar to her size At an incompatible speed, he firmly protected Zhou Jielun behind him, then took out his mobile phone and dialed the bodyguard number.
"Gan! That's outrageous! Can I be caught dressed like this?"
Jie Lun frowned slightly as he looked at himself who was fully armed.
After Dani reminded her like this, she soon felt that there was a paparazzi filming her secretly.
"Jaylen, did you come to the cinema to watch "Those Years"?"
"Jaylen, how do you feel about the box office of "Slam Dunk" being overtaken by "Those Years"? ”
“Jaylen, please”
Dani used her size to squeeze out a way.
Jay Chou quickened his pace and walked toward his business car with his head down.
Several bodyguards also came up to stop the paparazzi reporters.
"Brother JAY, get in the car quickly."
Dani opened the door for Jay Chou first and waved to Jay Chou.
“It’s really bad to wear something like this and get blocked.”
After getting on the bus, Jay Chou took off his hat, sunglasses, and mask, sat back on the seat, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother JAY, don't be so impulsive next time."
Dani handed over a bottle of water and muttered: "If those reporters know that you went to watch "Those Years", It will definitely be embarrassing when the time comes."
"What does it matter?"
Jie Lun opened the water and took a sip, but he looked very excited: "Hey, Dani, You watched it too, what do you think?”
"I think it's not as good as "Slam Dunk"."
Dani is very conscious and expresses her position with her mouth.
"Please, if you tell the truth, I won't deduct your bonus."
Jay Lun's expression twitched.
Dani has been following him for a long time, and the two of them usually get along as if they were friends.
Dani thought for a while, then said: "I think "Those Years" is similar to "Slam Dunk", they are both very good-looking."
"Dani, show your conscience and tell the truth. I'm more optimistic about "Those Years"."
"Okay, I also think "Those Years" is better, but "Slam Dunk" is also good."
Dani stopped pretending. , finally said what was in his heart, and secretly glanced at Jay Chou's expression.
Hey, brother JAY, why don’t you look disappointed at all?
Why do you look a little excited instead?
"Yes, watching this movie reminds me of my first love in junior high school. That feeling is really beautiful."
Jay Lun put his hands behind his head and smiled. With a look of remembrance: "You girls may not understand this feeling of being the weakest person in the class. For a girl, you suddenly stood up and became a better person."
"Really."
Even the boss surrendered to the enemy, and Dani gradually let herself go: "Brother Jay, do you know? When I was in junior high school, I also liked a boy like Zhou Yutang, he was really cool."
"Wow, Dani, you have spring too, are you together?"
Jay Chou suddenly gossiped.
"Shit, it's just a secret love, I don't have the guts to say it out loud."
"This classmate Zhou Jielun from Class 2, Grade 3, who jumped on the street and made fun of me, is outrageous."
Jielun Zhou chuckled softly: "However, I think Zhou Yutang's acting skills are pretty awesome, and he is as handsome as me."
"Better than JAY. No, he's almost handsome."
Dani almost said what was in her heart, but immediately changed her mind: "In short, they are almost the same. Zhou Yutang is from the acting department of Beijing Film Academy, and his acting skills It’s normal to be a little better, but his singing is not as good as that of JAY.”
“To be honest, I have listened to a few songs he wrote, and they are pretty good.”
“It’s pretty good. , Brother JAY, it has only been released for a few days, and we still have a chance to overtake it at the box office."
Dani comforted.
Xiao Xiao lets herself go, but she still knows her position and will stand by Jay Chou no matter what.
But to be honest, Dani was a little shocked. Jay Chou is the king of the Chinese music scene. Although he is not a person with high ambitions, he is still arrogant.
After following Jay Chou for so long, this is the first time for Dani to see Brother Jay appreciate an opponent so much.
“No chance.”
Jay Chou made a cool shooting motion with both hands: “Writer, screenwriter, song writer, actor, director, he can do it all. He is really a cool guy. If there is a chance, I would like to get to know him.”
…………………………
“Introducing you to the romantic and talented Zhou Yutang!”
“A touching youth film without car accidents, sex scenes, or abortions to the end.”< br>
“Zhou Yutang captured the most authentic youth of the two generations born in the 80s and 90s!”
“The most unmissable Chinese film of the year, with such a reputation, it is a dark horse at the box office during the Lunar New Year.”< br>
""The Girl We Chased Together" will be released in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and it is expected to cause a sensation!"
Film critics have written many articles, and the media's praise of "Those Years" has reached a new peak. .
Zhou Yutang himself compiled a complete set of golden sentences and buzzwords in "Those Years" and handed it over to the publicity team. As the movie was released, the publicity gradually unfolded. Now the classics of "Those Years" are online The lines have already started flooding the screen.
“No matter how awesome a person is, the years are not as good as the time when a bunch of people are stupid!”
“You are the apple of myeye.”
"Actually, I'm not as good as you think at all. You only like me in your imagination."
"Because I want to chase you, I study hard and study hard, and it turns out to be a very passionate thing."
“Comb your hair like an adult and put on a handsome suit.”
We have not yet reached the Internet age, but young people are keen to accept new things.
Especially when your qq space signature can contain such popular phrases and popular words, then students of the opposite sex who come to your space will think that you are very stylish and fresh and handsome
Zhou Yutang was just the driving force behind the scenes and provided some opinions.
Specifically, it is Li Shuang and Li Xiaoping who will run it.
Li Xiaoping saw it and felt happy in her heart. She felt more and more that she had found a treasure.
While overjoyed, she also arranged for Zhou Yutang to meet in several cities
After running for many days of promotion, I was really tired, but seeing the crazy soaring box office, Zhou Yutang felt a sense of satisfaction that could not be described in words.
By late February.
The box office of "Slam Dunk" gradually stopped at 73 million, and the film schedule plummeted, basically declaring that the potential was exhausted.
The cumulative box office of "Those Years" has reached 138 million, which is a very gorgeous number.
What is the concept?
It has surpassed last year's "Lust, Caution" directed by Li Anda!
It has set a new record for the highest box office of a youth genre film
Moreover, at this time, the box office of "Those Years" is still increasing by more than two million every day, which shows that many fans have watched it several times.
"Boss, the Internet said that we are going to fight to the end and have a chance to hit the box office of 200 million!?"
Zhao Liying came to Zhou Yutang's side, her little face was full of excitement.
“What are you thinking about?”
"Ah?"
Zhao Liying was stunned.
"The statements on the Internet are unreliable."
Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed: "Two hundred million is not realistic, but 160 million is possible." The publisher of "Big Slam Dunk" At the beginning, a press release was issued to target a box office of 200 million.
Currently, there are only so many established audiences in the country, with a total of 4,000 movie screens.
There is also a very serious problem. "Those Years" has been released for almost 20 days, and there are many pirated copies online.
Unless it's a big cast like "Assembly Number" and "Report" that hit the box office at the beginning, it is basically impossible to hit 200 million due to piracy.
So far.
The box office of "Those Years" shocked many people in the industry, and it also exceeded Zhou Yutang's psychological expectations.
Zhao Liying stuck out her tongue and felt a little dizzy when she heard this number.
This is 100 million, followed by 8 zeros, how much does it cost?
How much money can your own boss make?
The way she looked at Zhou Yutang was different.
The boss is one year younger than me, how can he be so powerful?
And he seems to be more handsome than before.
Zhao Liying went to promote with Zhou Yutang this time and appeared on many programs, including "Tian Tian Shang Shang", a domestic first-line variety show. This was an opportunity that she had never had in Huayi before.
So Zhao Liying cherishes her very much. She follows Zhou Yutang all the way. She is diligent and capable, and is almost equal to half of Zhou Yutang's assistant.
"Boss, that's awesome. I'll ask my brother to go see it again and contribute some money to the box office."
"Do you have a younger brother?"
Zhou Yutang was also happy.
He is currently on a plane, flying first class.
It’s not boring to chat with a little girl like Zhao Liying.
"Yeah, my brother's name is Zhao Jianfei, he's so naughty."
Zhao Liying smiled and said: "If he doesn't study hard all day long, he likes to play with his female classmates. The little girl asked him out. I watched movies and invited him to dinner. I don’t know how he had the nerve to wait for me to come home. I must take good care of him.”
"There is a future."
Zhou Yutang felt slightly happy.
Fortunately your brother’s surname is Zhao and not Kang.
…………………………
Huayi.
A high-level meeting is taking place.
Boss and Mr. Wang were sitting on the leather seats with a solemn expression.
In an unknown corner, "Wedding 2008", a love movie produced by Huayi Company and released at the same time as "Those Years" during the Lunar New Year on 2.10, starring Guo Tao and Tao Hong, has a cost of "Those Years" was similar, but was defeated directly.
The box office of this period was almost completely sucked up by "Slam Dunk" and "Those Years".
Although Guo Tao and Tao Hong are both capable actors, when it comes to box office appeal, they are really incomparable to Jay Chou and Zhou Yutang.
Huayi also invested some promotional resources in this low-budget romantic comedy, but even if it couldn't get off the ground, there was nothing that could be done. In the end, the total box office was just over 4 million, so it had to be released early.
There was also "Pride and Prejudice" starring the goddess Anne Hathaway, which was released at the same time. It was also beaten by "Those Years" and the box office was dismal.
"Those Years" is the biggest dark horse in the Lunar New Year show.
The cigar ashes in Mr. Wang’s mouth fell on the table without even realizing it. He held the box office report handed over by his statistician, his face full of disbelief:
" The box office is expected to exceed 175 million, are you sure you are not kidding?”
"Mr. Wang, it's true. This is calculated based on the latest data. It combines the reputation of "Those Years" as well as the attendance rate and the number of moviegoers. The final error will not exceed 5 million."
Wang Zhongjun frowned and asked, "What's the background of this Zhou Yutang?"
Mr. Xiao Wang also had a cigar in his mouth and turned his attention to the manager of the film department.
The manager had a good memory, pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said: "Just a newcomer who just debuted last year, a student from the Beijing Film Academy. He debuted in a TV series last year and became a hit. Chen I always had dinner with him.”
“Oh?”
Wang Zhongjun turned to look to his right.
Chen Guofu pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, shook his head and chuckled.
Wang Zhonglei asked: "Old Chen, are you familiar with this kid?"
Chen Guofu smiled and said: "We met once and asked Yu Tang to do something. Xiao Ming has a good relationship with him. I also invested in his TV series."
"Is it possible to recruit him if we have a good relationship?"
"This is a very thoughtful young man. I don't think it is possible."
The boss has many things to do and associates with celebrities. He is not sure what an ambitious newcomer like Zhou Yutang thinks. Chen Guofu can probably understand. Mr. Wang’s thoughts, a gentle reminder:
“Mr. Wang, although this Zhou Yutang is a student at the film school, he has opened a studio of his own, specializing in film and television projects. So far, he has done several Projects, each project has achieved multiple times of revenue, and the operating conditions are very good, so it is unlikely that he will come here.”
“You are really talented.”
Xiao Wang. He took a puff of his cigar, flicked the ashes, crossed his legs and said.
Wang Zhongjun raised his hand, pressed the button out of thin air, and quickly made a decision: "The company has entered the IPO preparation stage and will make final preparations for listing this year. Zhou Yutang is popular and capable. We can acquire his studio at a premium."< br>
"Money is not an issue. Let the public relations department negotiate first. If you can get it within 60 million, come directly to me to sign. As long as Zhou Yutang can come over, you can make whatever conditions you want, including some of Huayi's S-level film and television resources. You can be open to him.”
All the senior executives of Huayi present took a breath.
Sixty million.
The king is really courageous.
With so much money, just spend it on Zhou Yutang and his newly established studio?
There are also subsequent S-level film and television resources, which is almost the treatment of first-line stars in the industry.
Some senior management raised objections: "Mr. Wang, this is against the rules. What do other people think of giving him such good treatment?"
"I will be responsible for what I say."
Wang Zhongjun stood up, supported the table with both hands, and made a decisive move.
Mr. Xiao Wang also put out his cigar in the ashtray and said with a smile: "How much world can such a young man see? If he wants to be in the circle, if he wants money or women, Huayi can satisfy him."
Chen Guofu laughed but said nothing.
The meeting dispersed.
The manager of the film and television department followed Chen Guofu out.
The manager of the film and television department couldn't help but asked: "Boss, I think you just seemed to have something to say."
"The king bought a horse bone this time for thousands of dollars, but 60 million is really too expensive. Even if "Those Years" had a final box office of 170 million, excluding the share from theaters and cable TV, he wouldn't be able to get much from the king. If you keep doing this, this guy is really lucky."
Huayi spent 60 million to acquire Jiangdong Film and Television Culture Studio.
If Zhou Yutang accepts it, it will mean a net worth of 60 million yuan.
I am only in my 20s, and with this kind of wealth, it is not an exaggeration to say that I have reached the sky in one step.
“Sixty million?”
Chen Guofu pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, as if he had heard some funny joke: "You underestimate Zhou Yutang, do you think he will take it seriously?"
"Such a dick? Not even 60 million Don’t you even like it?”
The manager of Huayi Film and Television Department was dumbfounded and roared crazily in his heart.
This 60 million riding on the horse, if you don't engage in gambling in China, basically means a lifetime of prosperity and wealth.
“That’s it.”
Chen Guofu patted his subordinate on the shoulder, shook his head and chuckled: "Pay more attention to the box office in other places, and you will know why I said that."
