Chapter 100 The celebration banquet is famous all over the world [Please subscribe for more updates]
"Are you okay?"
Holding Li Yan, Zhou Yutang asked with concern.
I glanced at her, I haven’t seen her in person for a while, and this girl seems to be more delicate and good-looking.
“Well, it’s okay, boss.”
Li Yao actually felt a little pain from being hit. His face instantly turned red. He was a little embarrassed and embarrassed to say anything.
Zhou Yutang was distracted by talking on the phone. She also ran out in a hurry, not paying attention to both parties, and ended up bumping into him.
After Jiangdong Film and Television Culture Studio signed Li Yao, she was assigned the role of Li Shuci in "Going to School Together". The first season has been completed.
This drama hasn’t aired yet, so Li Yao usually doesn’t make any announcements and just studies in school.
Now that "Those Years" is so popular, various media are rushing to interview it. Li Shuang wanted to bring a wave of popularity to Li Yao, so he called this girl who was still in school over.
While Sister Shuang was still sending reporters away, the boss Zhou Yutang chatted with his employees to express his concern: "Are you used to running back and forth like this?"
"Actually, it's okay. I'm studying in an opera school. The courses in art colleges are actually quite simple.”
“It’s obvious that there’s really not much pressure. Otherwise, where would you have the time to watch Milk Tea’s concert?”
“Ah, Boss, have you seen me?”
Looking at the narrow smile on Zhou Yutang’s face, Li Yao was slightly startled, and then quickly realized that a trace of light appeared on his delicate and beautiful cheeks. surprise.
"Well, that night, you and your best friend Yaoyao were sitting in the front row, and I saw you at a glance."
"Well, Yaoyao is your loyal fan, boss, and saw you on the post bar. I wanted to be a guest at Liu Ruoying’s concert, so I bought a front-row ticket. She was also at Teacher Wu Bai’s last concert.”
“That’s really a big fan.”
Zhou Yutang was a little impressed by this little rich woman who bought the infield tickets, and smiled: "Did she also play a supporting role in "Classmates"?"
"Yes, she didn't come to the set just for that. When I was a star, I just wanted to take a photo with you, but you were too busy, so I came here once. At that time, Yaoyao had finished her work and returned to the magic city.”
Zhou Yutang's spring breeze-like attitude made Li Yao gradually lose his inhibitions and communicate freely like a friend.
"That's such a pity. In the second half of this year, maybe the second and third seasons of "Classmates" will be filmed together. Then you can call me directly and I will definitely take a photo with her."
"Boss, what you said, then I told Yaoyao, don't forget."
The corners of Li Yao's mouth slightly pursed in a soft arc, and after chatting for only ten minutes, he was pulled over to do business. Got interviewed.
Conference room.
Zhou Yutang and Li Shuang were in a meeting.
The theme of the meeting was the benefits that "Those Years" brought to Koto Studio.
The total publicity cost of "Those Years" was about 8 million. The initial publicity cost was 5 million. Later, when the box office started to gain momentum, publicity efforts were increased, and another 3 million was invested.
The profit generated by a film mainly depends on the box office.
But the box office is divided between theaters and investors in a roughly half-and-half ratio, followed by taxes. After excluding these, the remaining 40% of the net profit is divided between the issuer and investors. party’s profit sharing.
In other words, Kodong Studio and Raytheon can get about 40% of the box office profits.
The final box office in the Mainland was 168 million, which is 67.2 million.
The calculation method of box office in other places is more complicated, because there are more relationships to be established. The total box office of Benzhou and Xiangjiang has a profit of 28 million after deducting the share.
Calculating this way, the total revenue of the movie "Those Years" is nearly 100 million.
Of course, light also costs money.
The announcement of the release was all done by Enlight Media. Putting aside the publicity costs and sharing the share with Enlight, Jiangdong Studio will finally gain about 43 million.
"Yu Tang, I have announced the "Latent" project to the outside world. Several companies are interested. What do you think?"
"The total investment in this project is 20 million. , Enlight and Guoli Film and Television each have a 20% share, and then leave part of the share, and the remaining studios will come out."
Zhou Yutang tapped his fingers on the table and made a decision quickly.
In this circle, if you don’t have a strong background and absolute strength, don’t think about living alone.
Koto Studio made "Those Years" which became a hit, but after all, it was still just emerging and its background was somewhat lacking.
At this time, pushing Zhang Guoli to the front to attract firepower is the most correct approach. Jiangdong Studio can take the opportunity to seize the time to develop.
“Okay.”
Li Shuang nodded in response and wrote down the conversation in his notebook.
"Then there is the drama "Classmates". According to the arrangement of Mango TV, it may be scheduled to start broadcasting in July."
"That's no problem. How is the search for new screenwriters going? I've almost written the outline for the two seasons. If everything goes well, we can start the second and third seasons of "Classmates" this year."
Zhou Yutang rubs He rubbed his forehead.
Now his name is a golden sign. Several satellite TV stations heard that Jiangdong Studio produced a youth campus TV series, and they came directly to grab it.
"Classmate" was finally sold to Mango TV. On the one hand, it was due to the good relationship with the TV station, and on the other hand, there was another consideration. After all, Mango TV's variety show has the highest traffic in the country, which is very important to Jiangdong Studio. It's very important for newcomers here.
“According to your requirements, we have selected two good candidates. I have notified them to come for interviews in a few days.”
"I'll see for myself then."
Zhou Yutang nodded slightly.
If the studio wants to expand the screenwriting department, it actually means finding a gunman for him.
Anyway, the characters of the protagonists of "Born Together" are very stable, and this is Zhou Yutang's plan.
He wrote the plot outline and asked the new screenwriter with certain writing skills to fill in the details of each episode's script according to his ideas, and finally handed it over to Zhou Yutang for review.
With a few minor changes, the script could probably pass.
Many first-line screenwriters in the industry, including those who have been famous for a long time, have similar operations.
"By the way, the celebration banquet over the light will be held tomorrow night, don't forget it."
"Well, I will take Shi Shi with me then."
< br>…………………………
Beijing.
Five-star hotel.
The driver parked the car, and as soon as Zhou Yutang came out, he was faced with a flash of lights.
Buttoning a suit button, Zhou Yutang still maintained a brilliant business smile even when it was difficult for ordinary people to open his eyes.
This is also the basic skill of being a star, you must always maintain good appearance.
Today he wore a white shirt and a black Armani blazer.
Tall and straight, he is like a walking clothes rack.
In order to cooperate with the dozen reporters present, Zhou Yutang made various handsome poses, smiled and waved frequently in all directions.
There was a burst of wild shouts at the scene.
A few female reporters’ eyes were shining and they pushed forward desperately.
Fortunately, there were staff maintaining order and setting up a line of defense. Although it was a bit crowded, there was no trouble.
Liu Shishi, who had just gotten out of the car, was a little uncomfortable being illuminated by the crazy flash lights.
But seeing Zhou Yutang standing next to him, Liu Shishi relaxed quickly, showed a sweet smile, took Zhou Yutang's arm, and waved.
One of the female reporters stood in front of her tank and managed to get stuck. She held a microphone and asked: "Zhou Yutang, I am a reporter from "Movie Century". Liu Shishi seems not to be a professional. I have never acted in a movie, and only have some experience in TV series. Do you approve of Liu Shishi’s performance in the movie?”
The corners of Zhou Yutang’s mouth raised slightly, and he held Liu Shishi’s slender waist. Protecting her as she walked toward the hotel, she replied casually: "The first time I saw Shi Shi, I decided it was her.
During the audition, I asked all the actresses to wear ponytails. Only Shi Shi gave me the feeling that best matched the heroine in my mind.
As for not being from a major, there is no problem at all. Mr. Zhou is not from a major either, but her acting skills are very spiritual. I think Liu Shishi has great potential."
Zhou Yutang opened his eyes and said It's a lie, and your face doesn't turn red and your heart doesn't beat.
As long as you dare to brag, then Liu Shishi can be a good actor.
At least her performance in this movie is above the standard.
Liu Shishi was very happy. I was selected at first sight.
She also subconsciously moved closer to Zhou Yutang and answered another female reporter's question: "You asked me how it feels to work with Zhou Yutang? Well, it's a very special feeling. I can only He said that Yu Tang is the most talented person I have ever met. I have learned a lot from him and I feel that I have made great progress."
While speaking, he smiled softly and looked at Zhou Yutang with his eyes, his eyes sparkling. Glittering, eyes pulsing, as if they could draw threads.
The scene where Liu Shishi looked at Zhou Yutang with admiration just now was caught by many sharp-eyed reporters.
Click! Click! Click!
There was another flash of light.
[The romantic and talented Zhou Yutang and his beautiful lady went to a banquet to celebrate their achievements, and Liu Shishi, a young lady from the Tang Dynasty, fell in love with him! 】
Tomorrow’s news headlines are ready!
Another entertainment reporter asked: "Director Zhou, if the score is 100, how many points would you give to this movie?"
"That's a good question."
Zhou Yutang paused slightly and responded with a chuckle: "If the perfect score is 100, I would give it 95. I personally have tried my best, but this is my first time as a director. , there are definitely things that are not done well, but I think the natural and subtle emotions of adolescence have been expressed very well. The reaction of many viewers is the best answer. To be honest, it is not just me, Shi Shi also tried his best, She is also a newcomer, and I am really surprised that she can do this."
"Where are the last five points deducted?"
"I don't give full marks because I am afraid of being proud. . "
Immediately, those who are worried about the world's chaos also came: "Director Zhou, the box office of "Slam Dunk" released at the same time is now strongly suppressed by "Those Years", do you have anything to say about this? ”
".I am a fan of Jay Chou, I have no other comment."
The reporter wanted to fish, but the hook was a bit shallow. Zhou Yutang did not fall for it and protected Shi Shi and moved on.
After casually dealing with interviews with several entertainment media, Zhou Yutang’s answers were impeccable. The gossip reporters felt that they could not dig out any serious information, so they immediately turned their guns and launched a collective attack on Liu Shishi:
"Shi Shi, do you have a boyfriend?"
"No."
"Shi Shi, Shi Shi, look here! Someone photographed you and Zhou Yutang traveling in the capital at night. Are you two dating?"
"Everyone has such a rich imagination."
Liu Shishi smiled slightly and said: "Actually, Yu Tang and I are just good friends. It was a dinner party for the crew, and all the assistants were there. After dinner, we went to the cinema. Mainly because Zhou Yutang wanted to see the direct reaction of the audience. ”
The movie was released and was a hit at the box office. Cai Yinong from Tangren Film and Television even smiled crookedly.
She has been in the industry for decades and has seen big and small disturbances. She had given Liu Shishi a lesson in advance on how to deal with these tricky questions from the media. Now she is answering It's quite decent.
Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi waited outside for more than ten minutes and finally walked into the hotel lobby.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiaoping was waiting at the door, with a middle-aged man wearing glasses and a straight suit standing beside him.
"Mr. Wang?"
Zhou Yutang was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the boss of Guangguang would greet him at the door in person.
“Yu Tang.”
Wang Changtian saw Zhou Yutang over there, his lenses flashed, and a warm smile instantly appeared on his face, "You are finally here. If you don't come, Xiaoping and I will go and invite you in person."
< br>"Haha, there are a lot of reporters outside, so I'm a little delayed for a while, Mr. Wang, please forgive me."
Zhou Yutang smiled slightly.
Mr. Wang took the initiative to say hello to Liu Shishi: "This must be Shi Shi. Xiaoping just talked to me about you."
"Hello, Mr. Wang."
Liu Shishi said politely, still looking a little reserved.
After all, she is just a young actress, and the person standing in front of her is a giant of a domestic film and television company, even worse than Mr. Cai.
The light of this project was unintentionally planted with willows and willows forming shade, and I made at least tens of millions.
Money is secondary. The most important thing is that the reputation of Guangwang has soared. This is the real benefit for a large entertainment company.
Today’s celebration banquet, Mr. Wang invited many guests.
Big names include Mr. Wang from Huayi, Li Lianhua, Big Dog from Galloping Pony, Jackie Chan from Xiangjiang
Dark horse director Ning Hao, bald Xu Zheng, Huo Siyan and many more are also here.
And Zhou Yutang’s old friend Huang Xiaoming came up and hugged Zhou Yutang and said congratulations.
Guang Guang’s CEO’s appearance must be in place. There were many well-known people in the circle, and the whole banquet hall seemed to be a gathering of stars. At this time, there was a small commotion at the door.
Zhou Yutang looked up.
Oh haha.
It turned out that Fan Xiaopang, another member of Shuangbing, was also present.
The golden sequined suspender skirt with her hair tied up reveals her white neck and the skin under the collar. The curvature of the curves is quite amazing. In addition, she is tall and waist-high when walking. As she twisted, she was really shining, attracting the attention of most of the men present.
Liu Shishi seemed to notice Zhou Yutang's gaze and curled his lips. Before he could speak, he was taken directly by Mr. Cai to accumulate connections.
Mr. Wang chatted with Zhou Yutang for a few words, and the female seductress who dominated the audience with her beauty had already walked over.
"Mr. Wang, congratulations on the movie's box office success."
With a bright business smile on his face, Fan Xiaopang said hello to Mr. Wang, exchanged a few pleasantries, turned around and rushed to Zhou Yutang. .
As he came closer, Fan Xiaopang took the initiative to extend his hand and smiled sweetly: "Yu Tang, you are really a blockbuster. Your first movie has such a high box office. Congratulations."
"Thank you, Sister Binbin."
Zhou Yutang also shook hands politely and gently, and then let go.
This female goblin is really well connected. She seems to be able to talk to the big guys on the field. She covers her mouth with her little hands from time to time, looking very happy.
The guests were almost there. Mr. Wang clapped his hands and started to speak with a blushing face: "This is also the first movie of Enlight with a box office of over 100 million this year, and it is also one of the best investments I have ever made."< br>
Crack! Snap! Snap!
There was a burst of applause below. Zhou Yutang looked calm and clapped softly.
Mr. Wang raised his hand and pressed it, and continued: "This is also the first time Yu Tang and I have collaborated. This young man's talent left a very deep impression on me. "Those Years" It is undoubtedly a good movie. It is precisely because of its excellent quality that it has been recognized by the audience and performed well at the box office. Yu Tang is the biggest contributor. Today I would like to pay a toast to Yu Tang here and pay tribute to the beautiful youth of those years. ”
The boss talks, that's it, a lot of blah blah blah.
Actually, Zhou Yutang has never even met Mr. Wang. He only discussed the investment with Li Xiaoping. Guangguang initially thought it was a small project.
Now, everyone has become Mr. Wang. Total credit.
Finally finished speaking, Mr. Wang raised his wine glass and pointed it towards the guests present: "Finally, I wish you all a prosperous career!"
The guests present also stood up very respectfully. Let’s raise a toast together.
Many reporters came into the banquet hall. They were all arranged by the lighting side in advance, and they took pictures of the big shots in the banquet hall.
Zhou Yutang glanced slightly and saw Mr. Cai of the Tang Dynasty chatting with Fan Xiaopang.
I don’t know what they are talking about, and I look towards myself from time to time. The smile of Liu Shishi beside me is slightly stiff, but the female demon Fan Xiaopang is much more at ease.
It can’t be said that she was at ease. She simply regarded this place as her home court and took the initiative to assume various enchanting poses. Every important person present, including Mr. Wang, Brother Big Dog, including Zhou Yutang, They all took photos with her.
Mr. Wang came over to have a drink with Zhou Yutang again, said a few words of encouragement, and then went to communicate with several other bosses.
On such occasions, socializing is inevitable.
As the director and star of "Those Years", Zhou Yutang has been approached by an endless stream of people.
"Director Zhou, congratulations on having the opportunity to cooperate."
"Yu Tang, this is my business card."
"Mr. Zhou, I am Galloping Pony. Manager, I have always admired you. I wonder if the book "Introduction to Architecture" you have is for sale. We can negotiate the price."
"Yu Tang, I have a play here. I haven't found the male lead yet. If you are interested, I will send you the book."
The reason why entertainment is called entertainment.
Everyone is treated well, coming and going, and there are huge crowds of people, all with smiling faces and good things to say.
Some people take advantage of this opportunity to expand their contacts, while others take advantage of this opportunity to discuss cooperation.
These are normal things.
Fan Xiaopang has been paying attention to Zhou Yutang's situation.
Looking at this young man surrounded by stars, he quickly adapted to this situation. Not only did he not feel unfamiliar at all, but he felt like a fish in water, chatting with this group of people who were considered prestigious in the industry.
"Excuse me, excuse me."
Fan Xiaopang raised his glass to apologize to a producer beside him, then twisted his waist, took enchanting steps, and walked towards Zhou Yutang and Pingtingting came over.
Thank you for your generous reward.
