Chapter 157: Dominate South Korea, Huge Benefits
"Old Tian, stop laughing, you have been laughing for several days."
Xu Haofeng joked.
Tian Zhuangzhuang nodded slightly: "Indeed, there is nothing much to mention about Yu Tang breaking the box office record."
"."
Jiang Wei and Xu Haofeng shook their heads together.
It is indeed remarkable to have a proud disciple.
Zhou Yutang has really grown a lot of faces for Tian Zangzang in the past few days.
Seeing the depressed expressions of Xu Haofeng and Jiang Wei, Tian Zhuangzhuang said happily: "Yu Tang, why do you bring so much cigarettes and alcohol? Is it okay to give you some points for Teacher Jiang and Teacher Xu?"
"Of course it's no problem. You know that Teacher Jiang and Teacher Xu are here. I'll go to the trunk of the car and bring some more. Do you want to try a cigar? The goods over there at Mao Zi are all gifts from friends."
"It's almost done, I can't get used to that thing."
Tian Zhuangzhuang put down his pen and greeted with a smile on his face: "Come, come, come, everyone has a share, Lao Jiang, Lao Xu, you guys You’re welcome.”
“Then I’m really not welcome.”
Xu Haofeng’s eyes lit up, he was also a smoker and an alcoholic.
Zhou Yutang knew that Mr. Xu was an author, proficient in screenwriting and directing, and very capable.
Especially in class, he is very interesting. He often tells students some interesting things in the circle. His class is always full every time.
After dividing the spoils, Zhou Yutang took the initiative and said: "Teacher Jiang, I just happened to have something to do with you. Next month the Magnolia Awards will be presented and I will go to the Magic City."
"I won five items. Nominate me?"
Xu Haofeng pushed up his glasses, his tone slightly envious.
He is a teacher and also a director. Which director doesn’t dream of standing on the podium one day.
Jiang Wei only collaborated with Zhou Yutang on one work and went straight to the altar, which he couldn't help but be envious of.
"Okay, you can notify me when the time comes."
Teacher Jiang Wei nodded and handed over the script in his hand; "Yu Tang, the script of "Snow Leopard" is not finished yet. , take a look first."
Xu Haofeng asked: "Yu Tang, is this "Snow Leopard" also a project made by your company? "
"This is the copyright I bought, and I am going to let Jiang Teacher Wei will make a TV script, and our company will invest in the filming.”
Zhou Yutang looked through the script and explained to Xu Haofeng casually.
The script for "Snow Leopard" is in good progress.
"Snow Leopard" is expected to be made into a 40-episode TV series, and about half of it is currently completed.
This drama is different from "Latent". The original work of "Latent" only has 10,000 to 20,000 words, and it needs to be adapted into a script of hundreds of thousands of words, including the character setting and the plot.
The original work of "Snow Leopard" "Special Warfare Pioneer" is a long online novel with detailed character settings and a complete plot framework.
It is only necessary to extract the essence of the content inside. With Teacher Jiang Wei's strength, half of it is still the result of his seriousness and carefulness.
"Old Xu, please help me take a closer look. Yu Tang's main theme book is not bad."
"That's necessary. This Maotai can't be drunk in vain."
Xu Haofeng laughed and discussed the problems in the script with Jiang Wei.
“Go out for a smoke?”
Tian Zhuangzhuang stood up with a smile. Zhou Yutang knew that Lao Tian had something to say to him, so he came out to accompany him.
“How does it feel to have set a new box office record?”
“It’s not bad.”
“To be honest.”
“It’s great. ”
Zhou Yutang said honestly: "With so many people supporting me, I feel a little bit carried away."
He is also a human being, not a god.
When a department store counterman who is at the bottom of society one day stands on the forefront and has a net worth of over 100 million, he will subconsciously no longer regard himself as a small shopping guide, and he will certainly not be able to remain rigid towards customers. Start with that attitude.
Zhou Yutang has been walking on thin ice all the way, and now he is surrounded by flowers, which makes him feel a little drifting.
Tian Zhuangxang took a puff of cigarette and looked at Zhou Yutang with a hint of relief in his eyes: "It's normal. Everyone has this stage. Forget it, the important thing is that you realize this. It shows that you know what you are doing.”
"Anyway, I think you haven't changed. If you can put down those social activities, come back to school, and continue to work hard, it proves that you still want to make progress."
"Teacher Tian, I really want to make progress. "
Zhou Yutang said frankly.
The longer I stay in this circle, the more I understand how realistic this vanity fair is.
He has been making progress, from an ordinary student to a popular star, and is now completing his transformation from a popular star into a being of another class.
According to Zhou Yutang's mountain climbing theory, he has now taken a big step forward from halfway up the mountain and is on the road to the top of the mountain quickly.
You can only stand on the top of the mountain and watch the storm with a smile.
That is the person who plays chess in this circle, who can participate in formulating the rules of the game and let many people play according to his rules.
“By the way, Teacher Tian, is the one you just talked about Poet Chen?”
“I didn’t say it, you said it yourself.”
Lao Tian held a cigarette and lit it at Zhou Yutang.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Brother Chen Kai was also very talented at the time. His film "Farewell My Concubine" shocked the world and won the Palme d'Or.
Beauty is enchanting and honor is supreme.
Almost put him on the altar.
The result?
Lu Wei once said something very interesting: "I was very lucky. When I cooperated with Brother Chen Kai, he was in the purest stage of art."
After Poet Chen became famous, He is not very "pure" about art
He is not very able to listen to others' advice.
So his works are more like the narcissistic and sensational expressions of a middle-aged male director with a lot of literary talent.
"The key is the work."
Tian Zhuangzhuang patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder and said earnestly: "You still have to produce good works. The great man once said that art has value as long as the people like it. , Of course, this value orientation must not be as crooked as Lu Chuan, and you must know what you are doing when doing things.”
I’m beating someone like Lu again.
Zhou Yutang nodded slightly: "I understand."
Finished a cigarette.
Tian Zhuangzhuang continued to go back to the office to chat with Xu Haofeng and Jiang Wei.
Zhou Yutang went directly back to the company to arrange the trip to South Korea.
Both Zhu Yilong and Zhang Ruojun joined the group. He just came to see the teacher and listen to his teachings.
Very effective.
At least it made him more clear about what he wanted to do.
Came to South Korea again.
The situation is different from last time.
At Incheon International Airport, we saw hundreds of fans gathered around us.
“Wow, uncle!”
“Zhou Yutang, he is really handsome!”
"Does this kind of look really exist?"
"It's so handsome that I can't believe it even if I see it with my own eyes!"
"Salang, hey, Zhou Yutang!"
Wearing a pair of sunglasses, Zhou Yutang smiled and nodded, waving his hands from time to time.
The girl who is obsessed with sticks orgasms directly on the spot.
Li Shuang was busy with work and did not come with him this time. He asked Pei Yun, the manager of the South Korean studio, to come and pick him up: "Boss, you don't know how popular you are in South Korea now. There are fans who build their own websites, and the station sister handles them." Some of your interviews and videos in China.”
“Sister Zhan?”
“Simply put, it’s about supporting fans with love, tracking schedules, taking photos, etc. The one who retouches pictures, edits Amway promotional videos, and shoots you with a camera at the airport is the one you have here.”
“You really know how to play.”
Zhou Yutang said. It was an eye-opener for myself.
The version of the entertainment industry in South Korea is updated too quickly.
However, there is one thing to say. The station sister model does have a certain promotion effect on celebrities.
“Can we contact them?”
“Yes, boss, do you want to”
“No, I don’t want to.”
Seeing the doubts in Pei Yun's eyes, Zhou Yutang chuckled and said, "Send them some signed posters and peripherals. It's not easy to generate electricity with love."
"Boss, you are so kind."< br>
“Have the arrangements been made at KBS?”
“No problem, we have communicated in advance.”
“Let’s go to the hotel first.”
Zhou Yutang nodded slightly.
In addition to negotiating the promotional activities with SHOWBOX this time, he also had to hold a meeting with the executives of KBS TV station to discuss the recording and effects of "The Voice" here. Currently, The Voice is here The average viewership rating is 18%, and its popularity continues to increase. It can definitely be regarded as a popular variety show.
The place where I stayed this time was still the Shilla Hotel. As soon as I checked into the hotel, I received a call from the top management of SHOWBOX, saying that a big shot wanted to meet me.
Zhou Yutang was slightly distracted when he saw the woman accompanied by the SHOWBOX senior executive.
He recognized the true identity of this mature woman at a glance, she was Li Fuzhen, the eldest princess of Samsung.
Li Fuzhen was wearing a Chanel suit, her slender legs wrapped in black stockings and a pair of high heels. The collar of her white shirt revealed her fair neck and the skin of Xiangshuang Saixue under the collar.
Of course.
The graceful figure and delicate face are not the most attractive features of this woman.
The kind of temperament cultivated by the nobles and nobles is a ripe flower of wealth in the world.
After communicating with the other party and confirming his identity, Pei Yun was a little shocked and translated in Zhou Yutang's ear.
It turns out that Li Fuzhen is one of the shareholders of SHOWBOX, but this meeting was her personal request.
A dinner party was specially arranged for this purpose.
"Mr. Zhou, is the food to your liking?"
"I put a lot of thought into it, it's very good."
Zhou Yutang nodded slightly, with a smile on his face With a faint smile.
to be honest.
The only thing South Korea is good at is probably kimchi and barbecue.
But the food in Shilla Hotel is high-end and has many kinds, which is indeed good.
Samsung Group is the top chaebol in South Korea. As the eldest daughter of the chaebol, Lee Fuzhen is responsible for operating the Shilla Hotel and has strong business capabilities.
At least in Zhou Yutang's opinion, the entire Silla Hotel appears to be of extremely high quality under her operation. You can even taste Chinese food cooked by the chef here. This is also the designated hotel for Chinese leaders to stay when they visit South Korea. hotel.
Li Fuzhen has obviously done his homework in advance.
Knowing that Zhou Yutang is from Jiangsu Province, I specially arranged for a Huaiyang cuisine chef to cook Huaiyang cuisine tonight.
“Providing quality service to guests has always been the purpose of our Shilla Hotel.”
Li Fuzhen showed an elegant smile, raised the cup in his hand, and gently used a spoon to Stirring and making a pleasant tinkling sound.
Both of them communicated with their own purposes.
Zhou Yutang quickly understood the woman's intention. "You want to cooperate with me?"
"That's right."
Li Fuzhen swept the hair beside his ear, and there was an indescribable feeling in his smile. Confidence: "I have read Mr. Zhou's resume. His rise is incredibly fast. I heard that Mr. Zhou has the intention to develop in South Korea. Maybe we can cooperate."
"How to cooperate?"
"We can set up a film and television entertainment company together, and I will take care of all Mr. Zhou's troubles in South Korea from now on."
"Then what do I need to do for you?"
"You don't need to do anything. I just want your work. From now on, your distribution rights in South Korea will be handed over to the new company."
Li Fuzhen smiled sweetly and sincerely: "I don't think anyone is better than you." You know what those people want to see. You are a smart person and you must know what this cooperation means."
Zhou Yutang probably understood what Princess Sanxing was thinking.
Everything is based on its proven ability to output high-quality entertainment content.
Including the original "I Want to See You", "The Voice", and even the phenomenon-level movie "The Alone Agent" that is still in theaters.
These high-quality film and television entertainment contents will have a great impact on ordinary people in South Korea.
Li Fuzhen wants to further enhance his influence in South Korea.
Zhou Yutang can get a partner with a strong background and powerful enough to solve many problems in South Korea.
The two of them had their own needs, so they talked happily.
Of course.
We only discussed preliminary cooperation intentions, and the specific distribution of benefits still needs to be negotiated.
It wasn't until Li Fuzhen's secretary came to urge her for a group company meeting that she got up and left. Before leaving, she even arranged a vehicle for Zhou Yutang.
I talked about this matter with Li Shuang in the car.
Sister Shuang said with rare gossip: "Yu Tang, this three-star princess has fallen in love with you, right?"
"Sister Shuang, what are you talking about?"
Zhou Yutang shook He shook his head and laughed: "Everyone has a husband. Do you think I am a person who does bad things?"
"You don't think so, but I think you are."
>Li Shuang didn't speak, but her silence seemed to give the best answer.
Assistant Mao Xiaoyu was trying hard not to laugh.
When she first followed Zhou Yutang, Jiangdong Studio had not yet transformed into an entertainment company, and she was still a blank slate, but after experiencing Zhou Yutang's colorful love life.
Mao Xiaoyu also began to imitate Li Shuang’s behavior.
Do your duty as a personal assistant, arrange Zhou Yutang’s food, clothing, housing and transportation, and communicate with you about your work schedule.
Zhou Yutang is really generous to the people around him. Every time he goes on a business trip, he will buy gifts for those people and some things for the people around him.
Last year on a business trip in Xiangjiang, Mao Xiaoyu received an LV bag.
She vowed to stand by Zhou Yutang's side to the death.
As for emotional matters, just let the boss handle it by himself. Even if he sees something, just pretend he didn't see it.
“Yu Tang, what do you think?”
After joking, Li Shuang still asked Zhou Yutang’s thoughts in a professional manner.
"It's built on the basis of equality. It doesn't hurt to try to cooperate. Anyway, my base is at home, so I can play whatever I want abroad."
Zhou Yutang thought about it for a while before saying: "If the cooperation goes smoothly, we can lay a solid foundation for the future." The company has completed its layout in foreign markets.”
“Even if the cooperation fails, it will not have any bad impact on me.”
The chaebol princess is bluffing. But it only works well in South Korea. If Zhou Yutang pats his butt and returns to China, nothing will happen.
"Then do what you want and leave it to Pei Yun to discuss."
Zhou Yutang then had a meeting with Pei Yun. Pei Yun was a little impressed: "Boss, in order to make the company bigger, you have already planned your business here?"
"You may not believe it when I say it. There is no such long-term plan, I came here purely to make money, and because of one thing. "What is it?"
Pei Yun was a little curious.
"Just Jang Nara, do you know?"
"It seems that she is a second-tier female star here. She was very popular in China for a while. What happened to her?"
"The Korean wave swept Asia in the past few years, and there are many Korean fans in China. I was so involved that I could no longer survive, so I went to China to make a lot of money. After I returned, I said on a TV variety show there that I would go to China if I had no money. This meant that people in China were stupid and had too much money. I was a little unhappy. "
"."
Pei Yun opened his mouth wide and was speechless.
Zhou Yutang had a meaningful smile on his face: "I wanted to make money at the beginning, now I want to make their money, and I will still make their money in the future. This is called not changing my original intention."
So after "Want to Meet You" entered the South Korean market, he has been slowly making plans. The main purpose is to suppress the Korean Wave while also exporting reverse culture to South Korea.
Looking at his current popularity in South Korea, you can tell that he has already achieved initial results.
“Boss, if you go too far like this, you may cause South Korean officials to personally suppress it.”
“Haha, so it is necessary to cooperate with Li Fuzhen. "
Zhou Yutang smiled calmly and said: "The chaebols in this country have abilities beyond your imagination. Li Fuzhen also has an elder brother in his family, the next successor designated by the old chairman of the Samsung chaebol. "
< br>
"That's why she chose to cooperate with you, and with great sincerity."
"Yes, she cooperated with me and relied on hit film and television works to enhance her nationality and at the same time enhance her popularity. The influence in the family may even gain greater initiative in property inheritance in the future."
Zhou Yutang tapped his fingers lightly on his knees, always with a calm smile on his face.
Li Fuzhen brushed her influence.
I also have huge benefits to gain.
When the time comes, this chaebol princess will be in front.
Isn’t that just doing whatever you want?
"Why is a Chinese man so popular in South Korea?"
"Check whether his ancestors are from South Korea?"
"He is really handsome. Ah, Xiba! ”
"Seeing his face makes me wet."
On South Korea's most popular Naver forum, several of the top 10 hot posts are Zhou Yutang's posts.
After "Uncle", whose translation title is "Uncle", was released in South Korea, it was like a hurricane coming, sweeping through and overturning the entire South Korean film market.
Since its release in South Korea, this movie has dominated the big screen with overwhelming force.
The number of moviegoers in the three days of the first weekend was 957,035!
So far.
The cumulative number of movie viewers has exceeded 6 million!
The most important indicator of box office statistics in South Korea is the number of moviegoers and attendance.
This result even surpassed many popular movie stars in South Korea and created a moderate box office miracle.
And according to relevant media statistics in South Korea, this Chinese movie has a very high reputation and overwhelming praise. Especially after Zhou Yutang went to South Korea to participate in SHOWBOX promotional activities, the box office growth bucked the trend. , and may even break South Korea’s annual movie viewing record.
And all this.
It also brought extremely terrifying popularity to Zhou Yutang.
In this early summer, women all over South Korea seemed to be going crazy because of his existence.
He didn’t do anything, and the female fans here independently built a fan site for Zhou Yutang.
A website lady who understands Chinese also wrote a post about Zhou Yutang’s experience and posted it on the forum on Korean Net. The entire Korean Net was excited about it:
"Oh my God! Zhou Yutang has only been in business for two and a half years!"
"From a popular Internet author to a screenwriter, actor, director, and boss, he seems to be doing well in every profession. I am just now You know, it turns out that the popular variety show "The Voice" that I have been following for a while is actually a variety show promoted by this guy."
"Xiba, why is he so handsome and rich? "
"Sad, really sad. I, a woman from the Kingdom of Han Ming, was conquered by a man from the Celestial Dynasty."
"If such a man wants me, I will ignore him All promised.”
Lin Yoona happily browsed the forum page with a happy smile on her lips.
Kim Taeyeon, the leader of the same group, reminded: "Yoona, please restrain yourself. If you smile again, it will turn into a crocodile's mouth."
"Hahaha, is it so obvious? ?”
“Wow, you are really hopeless.”
Kim Taeyeon was unable to complain.
The joy that filled Lin Yuner's delicate and pretty little face could be seen even by a blind person.
Not only because of the enthusiastic response to their new album "Gee" at the beginning of the year, but also because of the huge sales of Yoona's idol Zhou Yutang's movies.
"I'm in a good mood today. I'll invite my sisters to watch a movie in the cinema together."
"You won't watch "The Lonely Agent" again, will you? You've already invited us to watch it twice. I also went to see it with Xiao Jingshu and Song Qian, and I can almost memorize the entire movie's lines."
Jessica, another member of the group who was applying a facial mask, also complained.
The group members in the girls' dormitory, including Yuri, Xiuying, and Seohyun, all shook their heads.
She came to a conclusion:
Yooner was completely hopeless.
Since Zhou Yutang’s movie was released in South Korea, this girl would take out her mobile phone during her spare time to read the good reviews about Zhou Yutang on the Internet, and then snicker there, sometimes Suddenly she blushed and bit her lip, looking like a girl in reverie.
“Isn’t it good-looking?”
Lin Yoona said confidently: "Xika, please ask Xiujing and Xueli to go with them. There will be more people and it will be more lively."
"Are you going?"
Jessica looked at Kim Taeyeon.
The remaining Huang Meiying, Xu Xian and others also looked at their captain.
As the leader of the group, Kim Taeyeon is quite prestigious, and everyone is used to listening to her make decisions.
Lin Yoona had already activated the coquettish mode, and came over to hold Kim Taeyeon's arm, and said in a sweet voice: "Sister, go ahead, we will be releasing a new album soon and will be busy playing songs, and we won't have so much free time then. It’s time.”
“There’s really nothing I can do about you.”
Kim Taeyeon shook her head and clapped her hands with a helpless expression: “Forget it, then just listen to Yoona. Let’s all go together. After watching this, I’ll treat you all to a barbecue.”
“Let me tell you in advance, I definitely didn’t agree because I wanted to relive Zhou Yutang’s perfect abs.”
“Wow. , thank you, captain!”
After participating in the promotional activities at the theater and reaching an agreement on cooperation with the Samsung Princess, Zhou Yutang went to KBS TV station for a tour.
When oranges grow in Huainan, they become oranges, and when they grow in northern Huaibei, they become oranges.
The same program will produce different effects and changes in different environments. This is quite a magical thing.
But with the professional correspondents from the variety show department of Mingjie Company watching, the overall program operation still follows the original framework of The Voice.
It can only be said that it is more difficult for low-level singers in South Korea to get ahead.
Because the entire industry is almost monopolized by companies controlled by chaebols and some large entertainment companies.
These are the rules of the game.
The area of this place is equivalent to a province in China. There are not many young people who are good at singing. The few who are good at singing have been discovered and signed with large entertainment companies.
What is left are some scraps that have been eliminated.
“Yu Tang, almost all the good prospects who have been promoted have been picked up by big entertainment companies. What are we doing with this?”
Pei Yun handed the complete set of contestant information that he took from KBS TV station to Zhou Yutang and asked with some confusion.
"Just take a look, maybe you can find something missing."
Zhou Yutang took the document and flipped through it casually. Suddenly he saw something and his eyes froze.
I couldn't help but sit up straight, and asked:
"Sister Yun, where does this Li Zhien come from?"
"She is an amateur who came to participate in the music audition. She passed the audition, but was eliminated in the second round."
"Then sign her."
