Chapter 242 The unparalleled king sets a record
He who travels a hundred miles is half a mile.
It is not Zhou Yutang’s style to lie flat during the golden publicity period.
I didn’t go to bed until after 3 o’clock in the morning last night. When Zhou Yutang got up to catch the plane, Yu Feihong still fell asleep late in Haitangchun.
After the kiss goodbye.
Zhou Yutang continues his road show.
On the plane, I thought about co-producing a blockbuster.
There is a process for doing things in the system.
This is the situation in China.
According to Mr. Han, the outcome of this matter has been decided, but there are still many meetings to be held.
After Zhou Yutang discussed with Han Sanping, they tentatively decided to come up with a script plan first.
"Co-production between the two countries, big scenes, big productions, big stars."
Zhou Yutang held his chin in his hand, pondered for a long time, and clicked on one of the files among several alternatives. Clip, murmured: "That's it."
The other side.
The road show continues.
Fan Xiaopang has worked hard for so long, and her face is a little haggard.
During this period, we had a video call one night. In addition to seeing the enchanting figure of this sister, it was also obvious that she was in a very happy mood.
Tang Yan is in another publicity group with Hu Jun and Mei Ting.
I once again saw Zhou Yutang, who was energetic and full of electricity, joining the road show team.
Tang Yan's tone was full of surprise: "Yu Tang, you went back for a day of meetings, took on a talk show, and then flew back to do promotions. How can you still be so energetic after working so hard?"
"Everyone is so tired, so I deserve to suffer."
Zhou Yutang, who had just come out of Sister Yu's gentle village, said shamelessly: "Actually, I forced myself to do it. I haven't fallen asleep at all."
"Young people are full of energy."
Hu Jun waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "I'm old. I go back to the hotel after the road show during the day. I can fall asleep just by touching the bed. I fell asleep while talking on the phone with my wife. She said that my snoring was like thunder. "
"Who says it's not the case? I have dark circles under my eyes. All came out.”
Mei Ting pointed to his big eyes, and the bags under his eyes were getting deeper.
“Everyone grit your teeth again.”
Zhou Yutang clapped his hands: “The final stage of road show promotion has ended with a celebration banquet at the Beijing Dynasty Hotel.”
“Zhou Long live the director!”
The final box office of Guoshi’s “Hawthorn Tree” was 155 million.
Donnie Yen's "Fist of Heroes" has completely become cannon fodder. It only took 58 million at the National Day box office and was released ahead of schedule.
On the contrary, "Empire of Heaven" directed by Xu Ke had a total box office of 248 million.
The National Day file at this time.
It has become a stage where "Big Shot" shines.
With good reputation and excellent attendance, theaters will also further increase their film schedule. After 8 days of release, "Big Shot" is unparalleled,
The cumulative box office is 440 million!
This is a pretty astonishing number.
After setting the fastest box office to exceed 400 million, it also broke the record of the fastest "Avatar" to exceed 420 million.
On the first day after the National Day holiday, the box office declined significantly, but the box office still reported 26.5 million that day.
This is already the well-deserved king of the National Day show.
"Yu Tang, who did you just call? I called several times and you didn't answer."
Listening to Yang Mi's very recognizable sweet voice, Zhou Yutang said lightly: "Shi Shi .”
Okay, it’s my real girlfriend’s phone number.
Yang Mi instantly changed the subject: "Congratulations, you broke the record again. This is heading towards 900 million."
"You can use your imagination a little more."
Zhou Yutang's mouth twitched slightly.
"How much box office can it have?"
"Probably between 600 million and 800 million."
"By the way, I have something to ask you. ."
"What's wrong?"
"Zhang Yimou's "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling"."
Yang Mi asked with hope: "Do you think I have a chance in this drama?"
"You too I really want to make progress."
Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Don't you have two movies and a TV series in hand?"
"Big Shot" has been steadily occupying the Internet recently. The headline, and then Zhang Yimou’s blockbuster.
It tells the story of the dark years in Nanjing in 1937. A church hid several clergy, a group of ladies, 13 prostitutes on the Qinhuai River who escaped from the war, and 6 wounded soldiers who crawled out from the dead. Together we face the most horrific and inhumane massacre in history.
At present, the scenery has been set up in Nanjing covering an area of 150 acres.
What the National Master is doing this time is a big production.
Yang Mi's voice became sweeter: "I think this is a good opportunity, what do you think?"
Zhou Yutang thought for a while and said: "That drama female role It’s quite a lot, I’ll let the agency arrange it, and you can go over and try it out.”
Yang Mi's heart moved slightly: "Then do you think I can be chosen?"
"It doesn't matter what I say."
Zhou Yutang chuckled softly: "The drama of the national master needs to be Who it is depends on his choice."
Yang Mi couldn't help but ask: "Then how did you stuff Zhu Yilong into "The Hawthorn Tree"?"
Zhou Yutang was speechless when he heard this. : "At that time, I just mentioned it to the national master. Zhu Yilong himself performed well in the audition, so he nodded."
He is very popular in the circle and has deep connections, but he does not cover the sky with one hand, and he has no friendship with Zhang Weiping, the "boss" of the National Master.
"That's it."
The slight disappointment in Yang Mi's voice flashed away: "Congratulations on your box office success. When will the road show end?"
" Probably next week, you will come to the celebration party later.”
“Oh, okay”
"Is there anything else?"
"It's okay."
Yang Mi listened to the busy signal of the phone hanging up.
Wei Wei was startled.
The eyes quickly regained clarity and determination.
Although there is little hope.
But this is also an opportunity for her.
I will definitely audition for the show when the time comes.
Because she never hides her ambition to move up.
In the second week of the release of "Big Shot", with the sad exit of "Hawthorn Tree" and "Empire of Heaven", the absolute dominance of the National Day film was completely confirmed.
The box office revenue on October 9th was 25.3 million.
In the second week of release, the daily box office growth is slowly decreasing, but the single-week box office still grossed 160 million.
At this time, the total box office has reached 580 million, which has exceeded "The Lonely Agent".
Zhou Yutang’s road show promotion has finally come to an end.
Some interview programs will be released soon.
Beijing.
Dynasty Hotel.
Although the movie is still in theaters, the champagne has been opened during the intermission.
The four giants Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun, Wang Changtian and Yang Shoucheng were all present.
Yang Shoucheng flew over from Xiangjiang on the same day and would go back to handle group affairs the next day.
Huo Wenxi and Li Xiaoping were helping greet the guests.
Lu Zheng also took Jing Tian to the celebration banquet.
“Brother Yu Tang, congratulations.”
Jing Tian blinked his big Kazilan eyes, his smile was still so sweet.
Zhou Yutang smiled: "Thanks to Mr. Lu's help this time." Wanda Cinema has developed rapidly in the past two years and has become the leading cinema chain in the country. Lu Zheng said for himself at Wanda Pictures After that, the relationship with theaters such as China Film and Magic City United is in place.
Several people worked together, so the film schedule of "Big Shot" has remained high, which is why it has achieved an almost miraculous box office today.
Lu Zheng patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Yu Tang, you're welcome, but the quality of your movie is still excellent. Besides, we are all our own people, and Tiantian will need more help from you in the future. ”
He was also quite pleased.
Zhou Yutang really makes everyone famous.
In the middle of this year, Jing Tian participated in the outdoor variety show Running Man. In just a few months, he attracted countless fans and his popularity skyrocketed.
This is not the fake popularity he used to spend money to buy drafts, but the real national fan base.
To put it simply, many passers-by got to know Jing Tian, a down-to-earth young lady, through the variety show Running Man.
There were many guests here tonight, and Big Dog Brother also hugged each other familiarly, "I originally thought "Sword Rain" was enough of a surprise, but I didn't expect there would be something more powerful. Congratulations, Yu Tang .”
Big Dog Brother felt really emotional.
After this movie.
Zhou Yutang was directly promoted to a top domestic first-line commercial film director.
"Brother Big Dog, don't be offended if you don't treat me well later."
"You are busy with your business, I will drink with you."
Brother Big Dog poses He waved his hand to show understanding.
The banquet was star-studded today.
Cai Yinong from Tangren Film and Television brought Hu Ge to join in the fun. Seeing this luxurious lineup, I couldn't help but secretly chuckle.
Had it not been for Hu Ge, the first brother of the Tang Dynasty, to control the situation, she would have been embarrassed to say hello to others.
In addition to Zhao Yanzi and International Zhang, Fan Binbin, Li Binbin, Xu Jinglei, and Zhou Xun were all present in the Four Days Double Ice.
For Jiangdong Entertainment, Zhang Songwen joined the group for filming. Zeng Li, Zhu Yilong, Li Yao, Yang Mi and others were all present, and they were all honored.
Big-name artists from Guangguang and Yinghuang also came, and all members of the recently popular Running Man Brotherhood were also present.
This scene is not inferior to an award ceremony of ordinary size.
The entertainment reporters outside the hotel were as excited as if they were celebrating the New Year.
We have a good relationship with Jiangdong Entertainment. The media reporters who were invited into the banquet hall were even more ecstatic. There were too many news materials.
But among these bright stars.
Zhou Yutang is undoubtedly the shining star.
"Director Zhou, congratulations on having the opportunity to cooperate."
"Mr. Zhou, congratulations on the box office success."
When Zhou Yutang appeared in a silver-gray custom-made suit , which immediately caused a small commotion.
A flood of flattery.
Zhou Yutang looked calm and smiled, greeting guests from time to time.
“Why is Donnie Yen here?”
“I don’t know, I’m not familiar with him.”
“I’m familiar with you.”
Zhou Xun touched Zhou Yutang with his arm and joked in a ghostly manner: "Next time you have a movie, remember to come to me. I can act well, and I can get a discount on the salary and a friendly price."
The integrity of the three golden actresses was shattered to pieces.
At the celebration banquet.
Of course, leadership speeches are indispensable.
Mr. Han, the head of China Film Group Corporation, delivered a speech without hesitation.
The scene of him holding Zhou Yutang's shoulders with a glowing face, as if he was in control of the country. The high-spirited and exciting scene was also photographed by the media reporters present.
Next is the ice crushing session.
The applause was thunderous and the flashing lights never stopped.
Zhou Yutang sat at the creative team’s table.
Although very tired.
But when they saw the ice sculpture numbers that symbolized the extremely prominent box office figures, they were still excited.
Not only was Zhou Yutang promoted to a top commercial film director, but Hu Jun, Mei Ting and others also benefited a lot.
After Hu Jun starred in "Red Cliff", he successively starred in "Roboman", "Mulan", "My Brothers from the Tang Dynasty", and "October Siege". None of the movies could recover the box office.
His performance in "October Siege", which won many awards, was quite outstanding, and he was ranked behind many actors from Hong Kong.
But it’s different now.
Hu Jun's character, the old policeman, in "Big Shot" is very plain and not as impressive as Zhou Yutang's chaebol son.
But he is also the undisputed leading actor.
After starring in this phenomenon-level blockbuster movie, Hu Jun's popularity rose sharply, and his salary was directly raised to 8 million.
Even before the movie was released, he had received many endorsements and business activities.
“Yu Tang, I won’t say thank you anymore, it’s all in the wine.”
Hu Jun’s face turned red with excitement, he raised his head and poured the wine in the cup into his mouth. .
Wang Jinghua's smile was almost crooked, and she had a vaguely flattering attitude: "Yu Tang, who do you want to use in the future, just tell me directly, and I will help you arrange it. There will be a schedule at any time."
This is also a hero among women. He did not hesitate at all. He raised his glass and drank three glasses in succession.
"Haha, thank you very much, Sister Hua."
Zhou Yutang also had a drink with her.
This is beautifully said.
But if given the opportunity, he would definitely prioritize his own people.
"Director Zhou, if you can get my role in the future, just say a word."
Although Mei Ting has serious dark circles under her eyes, the smile on her face never stops.
She made the right move by taking the wife route this time.
Originally I just thought of trying Zeng Li, but I actually got the role.
Unexpectedly, the box office of the movie was so explosive. The box office of all the movies in her acting career combined was not as high as this one.
After the excitement of the evening.
Zhou Yutang returned to Zeng Li’s house.
Sister Li can still take care of people.
I know Zhou Yutang drank a lot tonight.
As soon as he entered the house, he made honey water for him, and then put the water for him to take a bath.
However, due to Zhou Yutang’s strong request, the two of them did the bathing session simultaneously.
Mandarin ducks playing in the water, omitted to mention.
It’s done.
Putting on a soft cyan nightgown, her face as fresh as cheeks was shining with radiance. Sister Li was wiping her hair with a dry towel.
But seeing Zhou Yutang already sitting in front of the laptop, he walked over with a little curiosity, glanced at the open word document with his beautiful eyes.
After following Zhou Yutang for so long, I naturally knew that he was writing a script.
The beauty in Tsing Yi was very considerate and did not say anything.
Gently wiping his hair, he quietly watched Zhou Yutang’s fingers typing flexibly but rhythmically on the keyboard, looking at the four bold characters at the top of the WORD document:
< br>"The League of Thieves."
…………………………
“It has only been 18 days since the release of “Big Shot”, and the total box office has exceeded 654 million, breaking the record of “Earthquake” soon!”

That’s it.

And it’s not just domestic kingship.
This is a blossoming inside and outside the wall, sweeping the film markets in other places such as Hong Kong and South Korea!
