Chapter 216 The movie is scheduled to be released, holding the Red Sweet Princess in one hand
“Mr. Zhou, the preliminary publicity plan for “Hello, Old Times” has been put in place and it will be broadcast the day after tomorrow.”
“Yeah "
At the high-level meeting of Jiangdong Entertainment Company, Zhou Yutang sat on top of the chair and turned his pen leisurely: "Has Li Yao and Zhu Yilong's variety show been arranged?"
Jiangdong Entertainment Planning? The manager of the department reported: "It's still Hunan TV's "Happy Camp" and "Tian Tian Shang Shang", and the variety shows over there have also been on."
Zhou Yutang thought for a while and continued: "Go and communicate with Zhang Yibei, cooperate with the broadcast of the TV series, and prepare to be a guest on the next Running Man."
"Okay."
Planning Department Manager There was a gleam of admiration in his eyes.
How can a TV series that has not yet been broadcast on Jiangsu Province Station qualify to be on Mango Channel’s flagship variety show?
It’s all for Zhou Yutang’s sake, and as a guest on a high-profile variety show like Running Man, the publicity effect is bound to be quite good.
This also has a certain stimulating effect on TV drama ratings.
"How is the filming progress of "The Legend of Zhen Huan"?"
"Mr. Zhou, this is a big drama, and it is estimated that it will not be completed until September."
" Chen Xi.”
“Mr. Zhou, I’m here.”
Producer Chen Xi stood up.
“Go over there and watch.”
Zhou Yutang tapped his fingers on the table: “Speed up the progress and finish it by August at the latest. The company also has a similar film of the same type. "Jingxin" is in preparation. "
"Golden Wedding" opened up the viewing market for reality-based marriage themes, and "Let's Get Married" took advantage of it and made Zhou Yutang a lot of money.
Now "The Legend of Zhen Huan" will also open the door to palace dramas, and "Bu Bu Jing Xin" can also take advantage of the popularity of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" to maximize its profits.
After a pause, Zhou Yutang added: "Let's shoot the scenes between Zhu Yilong and Zhao Liying first. Xiao Zhao also has a movie called "Shan Shan Is Coming"."
"OK!"
Chen Xi followed Zhou Yutang a few times After training in this drama, he became more and more capable, and he sat down with a slight nod.
Then the deputy manager of the film business department also stood up and reported: "On the movie side, "Sword Rain" has just been released, "Journey to the Road" has been confirmed to be withdrawn, and Mr. Zhou has just filmed "Big Shot" They are still in post-production, but it may not be easy to choose the schedule of the two films by then."
If "The Journey" is confirmed to be released during the Spring Festival, then "Big Shot" will have to be postponed.
After all, there is another movie during the Spring Festival, "Let the Bullets Fly," in which the company has invested a lot of money, and it is expected to be released around December, and "Journey to the Road" will be released in January or February.
The staggered schedules of two films are already the limit. If another "Big Shot" is inserted, there will be a situation where each other's box office is occupied, and the loss is still your own money.
"I'll take care of the post-production."
Zhou Yutang made a decisive decision: "As for the schedule, I went to China Film and Television to talk to Mr. Han about the script of "Thirty-three Days of Love". How's that going?"
"The screenwriting department is still working on it."
"Speed up the speed, and the company will try to launch another film project in the second half of the year."
"Okay, Mr. Zhou!"
The deputy manager of the film business department sounded a little excited, and the other few The key elites in the film business department were also refreshed.
As for the senior executives of other TV drama business departments in the conference room, they all cast envious glances.
Several departments of Jiangdong Entertainment Company have an internal competition mechanism, and there is no such thing as lying around and making big money. Commissions are distributed according to projects.
The department is divided into several groups. The higher the profitability of the projects each group is responsible for, the commission received by the entire department will also increase, and the more money each person will receive.
Last year's "Latent" and "My Love from the Star" made the company's TV drama business department full. This year Jiangdong Entertainment has not yet had a hit TV series, and "Qi Hao, Old Times" has the highest internal evaluation of A level project.
The annual key project "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is still being filmed. According to this progress, it will not be broadcast until at least the second half of the year. As for the project "Step by Step", the casting has not yet been decided.
As for the film department, in the first half of this year, the box office success of "Sword Rain" has been very good, followed by "Big Shot" directed by the company's boss Zhou Yutang himself, and the small-budget comedy "Journey to the Road" should not be underestimated. Now he actually wants to start another movie project, which makes people in the TV series department envious.
Zhou Yutang glanced lightly, taking in everyone's expressions, and smiled slightly: "The personnel administration department, please hire a few more screenwriters. I also have an interesting TV series script in hand, which I will be working on in the second half of the year. , I may be too busy by then.”
"Understood, Mr. Zhou."
"The meeting is dismissed."
After the meeting, Zhou Yutang looked at the computer screen in the office, resting his chin on his hand and frowning slightly.
Assistant Mao Xiaoyu came in with a stack of documents and put them on the table, and asked curiously: "Boss, when did you start trading in stocks?"
"I didn't trade in stocks, I was watching Huayi of stocks.”
Zhou Yutang rubbed his forehead with two fingers and closed the stock market interface.
Xiaogang Pao opened its doors not long ago, and then Huayi invested in the multinational blockbuster "The Spy", which only had a box office of 22 million in its first weekend.
For a movie with such a luxurious lineup, it is obviously an unqualified result.
After the movie was aired, there were many negative reviews online and low ratings.
This caused Huayi's stock price to continue to fall. Zhou Yutang had Huayi shares with a market value of more than 100 million, and millions of them were directly evaporated in this wave.
"The stock market is so scary."
Mao Xiaoyu, who knew the inside story, was secretly speechless.
"Xiaoyu, you also made a lot of money, where did you spend it?"
"I bought a house. Last year, boss, didn't you let me buy a house? I bought a house with a loan of 100 yuan. Even if it’s flat, it’s doubled now.”
Mao Xiaoyu said happily: “Then I’ll buy the figure.”
Even Mao Xiaoyu, Zhou Yutang's assistant, is a wealthy young woman with a house in the capital. Her monthly salary is tens of thousands, and there are two bonuses in the middle of the year and at the end of the year.
Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows: "What's so fun about a figure? Do you want me to introduce you to a handsome guy?"
Mao Xiaoyu disagreed: "How can a handsome guy be as fun as a figure?"
>
"Okay."
Zhou Yutang's expression twitched slightly, defeated by this girl, and he had no choice but to change the subject: "What's your next trip?"
"Starry Mr. Lu has invited you to have tea."
Lu Zheng's Starry Company is a weird one in the entertainment industry.
Because there is only one artist in this film and television company, Jing Tian.
Lu Zheng has a deep background and is also a shareholder of Wanda. Of course, he is not doing this film and television company to make money, but purely to promote Jingtian.
Every employee in the entire company has It is to serve Da Tiantian alone.
This year, Starlight Company originally planned to launch "Warring States," a major film and television project with an investment of over 100 million.
Lu Zheng wanted to find Zhou Yutang to play the male lead and Jing Tian to play the female lead. He also invited superstars such as Sun Honglei to join.
Later he was pushed by Zhou Yutang.
After having a deep conversation with Jing Tian in private, Da Tiantian also listened to the advice and chose to settle down and learn basic acting skills in school.
In addition, Zhang Songwen will also open a small stove for her when she has free time.
Now she is obediently playing an important supporting role in the cast of "The Legend of Zhen Huan".
Today Lu Zheng asked Zhou Yutang to meet, but it was for another thing:
"Yu Tang, welcome to join Starlight."
"I hope Mr. Lu will do more in the future Take care of it.”
“If so, the entertainment industry will be yours in the future.”
Lu Zheng's hand on Zhou Yutang's shoulder was strong and he smiled: "Thank you so much for helping Tiantian with the plan this time." , I'll run it."
A smile appeared on Zhou Yutang's face.
Starlight Lu Zheng approached him several times, and this time Zhou Yutang nodded and agreed to take 19.9% of Starlight's shares in the form of resource investment.
In fact, the company itself does not have much investment value, but Zhou Yutang is also a drunkard.
Lu Zheng is a shareholder of Wanda, and the cooperation between the two, coupled with the resources behind Jing Tian, will be of great benefit to Zhou Yutang's future career development.
"With your words, I feel relieved."
Lu Zheng seemed to have thought of something, and sighed: "The entertainment industry doesn't look big, and it's not something you can get around casually. , If Tiantian hadn’t met you, I wouldn’t have known how many detours he would have taken.”
Why does this sound a bit strange?
Zhou Yutang chuckled and shook his head: "Actually, Tiantian has a very good character. If he takes the right path, he will definitely become popular."
"Oh, I hope so."
Lu Zheng looked at Zhou Yutang, squinted his eyes and smiled: "I think Tiantian has had his own opinions since he was a child, and he listens to your words."
The past two years have not been without starry projects. Jing Tian acted in a movie "My Beautiful Boss" last year. As a result, stars from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places were invited. The box office of the movie was not enough to pay the salary.
From now on.
Just after getting the project, Miss Jing Tian came to see Zhou Yutang.
"Warring States" is one of the larger film projects. Others include "Destined to Love You", "Crazy for Love", and "Falling in Love with You in This Lifetime".
Zhou Yutang also didn't know Mr. Lu The scriptwriter wizard who was hired from somewhere produced a lot of scripts. After reading them at the time, what he told Jing Tian was very straightforward:
"If it were me, I would definitely not do these projects. The scripts are mediocre and the dramas are mediocre. If you don’t praise others, there is no need to do it.”
I want to be popular in the entertainment industry.
Participating in popular film and television dramas is the easiest way.
Otherwise, even if you make 100 popular movies and TV series, no one will remember you, or some viewers will remember your face, but they won't be able to call you by name.
With Zhou Yutang’s successful case in front of him, Da Tiantian has no doubts about him.
That’s why Princess Tiantian is determined not to act in bad movies.
Mr. Lu can’t do anything about her. Although he has the background and resources, how can it be so easy to encounter blockbuster projects?
So.
He set his target on Zhou Yutang.
In terms of background, Zhou Yutang may not be as good as the three major directors.
But when it comes to flattering people, Zhou Yutang is definitely no worse than anyone else.
The film and television projects he has worked on are all hits and have made many people famous.
Zeng Li was directly promoted from a third-tier actress to Magnolia and Feitian.
Liu Shishi went from being unknown to becoming a top star.
There are many cases ahead of us.
It’s a pity that Zhou Yutang has been busy making progress in the past two years, and the good resources are basically used to cultivate his own company’s artists.
Jing Tian is also learning basic acting skills in school, and Starlight Company is basically in a state of failure.
Now it is different. The gears of fate began to turn.
After having Zhou Yutang.
Da Tiantian is about to embark on another road that has never been seen before.
Huayi’s stock price continued to fall, and the two Mr. Wang finally couldn’t sit still.
We held meetings with the company’s senior departments for several days and finally made a response plan.
The press release for "Earthquake" has begun, and it has also been announced that "If You Are the One 2" will start filming ahead of schedule, continuing the story of the first film, starring Ge You, Shu Qi, Sun Honglei and others, and making an all-out sprint for this year's Lunar New Year release.
The stock price also gradually rebounded, which made the two presidents relieved.
The number of them was eight figures, and their hearts were bleeding.
However, Zhou Yutang has no time to pay attention to Huayi's affairs. He has to do the post-production of "Big Shot".
There are still six steps of rough cutting, fine cutting, color grading, special effects, music composition, and final film.
Every step is crucial. Zhou Yutang has been busy doing editing work recently. He first screens the shots and connects the film completely together for rough cutting.
Then proceed with technical fine cutting.
For example, when to cut into which shot, the speed of the picture rhythm, the color grading and correction of the shooting picture, and finally the subtitles and special effects.
According to the current work progress feedback, it can be completed within three weeks.
Then comes the soundtrack. You take the finished film to the soundtrack studio and directly combine the two. The result is the finished film, which is then sent for review, and then the distribution company arranges for theatrical screening.
During this period, I also went to China Film Studio to discuss the schedule with Han Sanping.
Zhou Yutang didn't even say a word. When Han Sanping saw him, he took the initiative to hand over the packaged tea.
"Mr. Han, I really didn't come here for the tea." Zhou Yutang was very innocent.
"I know."
Han Sanping had an I-know-you expression on his face: "The main reason is that my old friend took more, so you can help me share some of it."
< br>
"Then I'm not welcome."
"Yu Tang, your movie "Sword Rain" was really good. Do you have two more movies coming this year?"
Han Sanping The tone was a bit envious.
This "Sword Rain" was controlled by Zhou Yutang and Pony Galloping. At that time, they were on a business trip abroad, and the remaining share was divided between Guangguang and Yinghuang.
“Well, the company may make another movie in the second half of the year.”
"Come over and have a chat then."
A smile instantly bloomed on Han Sanping's face.
Top quality tea is not given away for free.
Book a parking space in Zhou Yutang’s new project directly.
“By the way, how is the post-production of “Big Shot” going?”
"Still watching."
Zhou Yutang flipped through the movie schedule in Han Sanping.
The summer film is definitely "Earthquake". This film has the nature of an official mission, and it is the kind of film that arranges a private theater, so you can't be head-on with it.
The National Day festival is also packed with blockbusters.
"Romance in Lushan 2010", "Jingwu Fengyun·Chen Zhen", "With You All the Way", "Inception", "Love in the Hawthorn Tree", "Di Renjie: The Tongtian Empire".
< br>
"Let's just do the National Day show."
Zhou Yutang rubbed his forehead and made a decision quickly: "The Lunar New Year show is mainly promoting "Let the Bullets Fly", and "People on the Road" is scheduled to be released in early February. Let's see if it can Don’t miss anything.”
Zhou Yutang is really busy recently.
While I was working on the post-production of the movie, I also needed to shoot the endorsement ads, and there were also some dinner parties that I couldn’t refuse.
I manage my time to the extreme, so I occasionally find time to date Liu Yifei.
That day, I sent Liu Yifei home, and then she received a call from Zhang Yibei, the person in charge of the Running Man project: "Boss, do you really want Jing Tian to participate in Running Man?"
"You want to say that there is someone better than her? "Is that the right choice?"
"That's not what I meant. If you choose her, boss, you must have some considerations."
Zhang Yibei's tone was hesitant.
After all, after Jingtian made her debut song except for the hit song "Hello Tomorrow", she has no outstanding masterpieces, and her popularity is much lower than that of the popular Xiaohuadan.
She made this call out of a professional perspective, and she was also a little worried about whether Jing Tian would be accepted by the audience.
“Don’t worry, the show “Runningman” will be popular because of this model, not because of a certain host.”
Zhou Yutang said lightly: “I want to support Jing Tian , she will definitely become popular.”
“I understand, boss.”
Zhang Yibei seemed to be infected by the strong confidence in Zhou Yutang’s words, so she stopped mentioning it.
"Has the notification arrived for the remaining few? The first episode of the program plan is to let the hosts be as familiar with their positions and program procedures as possible. I don't want any of the hosts to have problems by then."
"I'll make arrangements."
Zhang Yibei answered professionally.
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yutang rubbed his eyebrows.
The hosts of the first season are Deng Chao, Jing Tian, Chen Chichi, Zhang Ruojun, Wang Baojun, Sha Yi and Li Cheng.
Among these seven people, Deng Chao and Wang Baojia hold the highest positions.
Others also have many film and television works and have been in the industry for many years.
Only Jing Tian has acted in two movies with little influence, made a popular song, and is also filming "The Legend of Zhen Huan", plus the American Cherry endorsement
The coffee position can be ignored.
But it doesn’t matter whether there is a coffee spot or not.
Having someone to support you is the most important thing.
Today.
Zhou Yutang is the man behind the spicy Da Tiantian.
On the flight to Shanghai.
Jing Tian, who had just taken leave from the crew of "The Legend of Zhen Huan", held her chin with her little hand and listened carefully to Zhou Yutang's speech:
"This variety show is called Running Man. As the name suggests, you have to run, but it's not just that simple. Just treat it as playing games with your friends outside, but don't have too many worries. Dare to play, dare to fight, and don't be afraid of hardship. In the end, The important thing is not to have the baggage of being an idol."
Zhou Yutang told her sincerely.
This is the character design developed by the creative team for Da Tiantian.
Just think about it.
A rich lady with a good temperament and good education, but also down-to-earth enough, will definitely attract a lot of fans.
"Well, it feels very interesting. In fact, I quite like sports."
Jing Tian nodded, with a nice curve at the corner of his mouth: "Brother Yu Tang, you are so amazing, you will be mine from now on. Boss, I will listen to you.”
“.”
Listening to Da Tiantian’s sweet voice, Zhou Yutang’s head was a little big.
Nan Yihuan, Bei Jingtian, and Zhuang Xinyan, who is not popular in singing.
He remembered this sentence clearly.
Since I took over this hell-level mission from Lu Zheng.
He also thought about it a lot in private.
Miss Jing Tian doesn’t want to win the Best Actress Award, she just wants to be famous.
If it’s the former, there’s nothing Zhou Yutang can do about it. After all, winning an award requires not only connections and qualifications, but also acting skills.
His acting skills are not up to par, and even if his public relations are in place, he will still be ridiculed after winning an award.
Da Tiantian’s acting talent is actually a bit similar to Liu Tianxian.
According to Zhang Songwen, these two girls can be said to be like ducks in water when playing specific types of roles.
For example, Liu Tianxian's Zhao Ling'er and Xiao Longnv, it would be very appropriate for Jing Tian to play those rich and wealthy daughters.
But you want to be popular.
Zhou Yutang had many methods.
For example, the current variety show "Running Man" is a shortcut to the end.
According to the domestic entertainment debate in the past few years, variety show stars are undoubtedly at the bottom of the entertainment industry.
But after Zhou Yutang started the variety show, some celebrity guests also discovered that they could benefit greatly from the popular variety show.
The most typical one is Zhou Yutang’s promotion of Deng Ziqi.
A newcomer who just debuted in a music variety show with no fan base has skyrocketed and now has millions of fans.
It is better than countless singers who have worked hard for decades.
Deng Chao’s wife Sun Li was very discerning and used connections to book a seat as a running boy in advance.
Running Man is Da Tiantian’s first stop at becoming famous, and the top one is Yang Ying’s position.
Does Yang Ying have any good works?
No.
Does she have acting skills?
Still not.
Then why is she so popular?
A large part of the reason is because of "Running Man".
This variety show brought her unimaginable attention and boosted her self-confidence.
Even Yang Ying was able to gain popularity through Running Man.
Why can’t Da Tiantian do it?
When Zhou Yutang brought Da Tiantian into the conference room of Mingjie Company.
The hosts of the men's running team, who have been waiting for a long time, all stood up, with respectful tone in their tone:
"Mr. Zhou."
