Chapter 250 Go to the world's grand banquet and see the beauty of the world
"Jiang Wenli."
Zhou Yutang suddenly thought of this enthusiastic aunt.
Back then, there was the ridiculous thing of going on a blind date.
Throw aside everything else.
Her acting skills are really nothing to say.
When I was just a junior in college, my performance in Poet Chen's "Farewell My Concubine" was amazing.
His eyes were frivolous but there was a hint of sadness, and he knelt down while brushing his clothes.
Later, Bai Yuting in "The Manor", Wang Cailing in "The Beginning of Spring", and Wen Li in "Golden Wedding"
created many classic characters.
There are not many actresses like her in China who are just the right age.
With Zhang Guoli playing matchmaker inside, Zhou Yutang quickly contacted Jiang Wenli.
In the end, Jiang Wenli also had something to say, "Yu Tang, I saw in the news that Zhang Jingchu also came to your place to audition?"
"Yes."
“What was the result?”
"I haven't decided on her yet, I used Fan Binbin this time."
"You have such good taste."
When Jiang Wenli heard this, she couldn't help laughing.
“…”
Zhou Yutang suddenly felt enlightened.
I remembered the romantic affair between Director Gu and Zhang Jingchu.
Jiang Wenli made a big fuss back then, which caused quite a stir.
“I have no problem with your play.”
Jiang Wenli readily nodded and agreed.
“Sister Wen Li, it’s a pleasure to cooperate.”
Zhou Yutang is very good at dealing with women, and this call made Jiang Wenli very happy.
Zhou Yutang calls Zhang Guoli "uncle" and calls her sister. Doesn't this make her look younger?
No woman cares about the passing of her youth.
Especially women like Jiang Wenli need the affirmation of a handsome young man like him.
“That’s right.”
Jiang Wenli seemed to have thought of something, and asked with some enthusiasm: "Yu Tang, did Sichun find you to chat with me later?"
"I'm usually busy with work, so we can chat occasionally."
Zhou Yutang's expression twitched slightly.
That girl sent a lot of messages in one direction.
Some shared about her daily life, including Daoxi who was enjoying the box office success of "Big Shot", and others who congratulated Zhou Yutang when he won the award...
Like many little girls this age.
She intends to share her life, but the method is not that clever. She seems to be waiting for Zhou Yutang to ask her out.
She usually posts a lot.
When Zhou Yutang is free, he will occasionally reply politely.
As a popular traveler, I have a lot of schedule announcements and I have to be busy with time management.
I'm too busy even to spend time with my sisters, so how can I have time to chat with this little princess?
But Jiang Wenli smiled like a flower: "Yeah, your work is very important, but sometimes it's good to go out and play with friends of the same age..."
"Sichun, she admires you very much. She often mentions you in front of me. You don't know that her room is full of pictures of you. You are her idol..."
Probably because of age.
Aunt Wenli is a bit nagging, and she is also keen on pulling red strings.
She wants to pave a road to the sky for her niece.
Zhou Yutang finally dealt with it and hung up the phone.
He really has never encountered anything like this.
He was so eager to push his niece out, as if he was eager to see Zhou Yutang accomplish good things with her immediately
……
In early November, the highly anticipated movie "Western Wind" held its premiere.
This large-scale production jointly produced by China Film and Huayi was originally scheduled to be released in late October, but because the box office momentum of Zhou Yutang's "Big Shot" was so strong, it was chosen to block the murderer and the murderer. Postponement of release date.
I would rather watch "Speed", "Resident Evil 4" and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 1)" starring Denzel Washington in November than temporarily avoid it. Open the edge of "Big Shot".
There was an extra period of publicity period, and the release of the press release also whetted the audience's appetite.
China Film International Cinema.
On the red carpet, the stars were shining.
As the leading domestic entertainment company, Huayi still has a strong foundation even though several generals have left this year.
A group of actors including Li Binbin, Deng Chao, Yao Chen, Huo Siyan and others have walked on the red carpet.
Of course the most eye-catching thing is Zhou Yutang’s presence.
The luxury nanny car stopped.
Zhou Yutang brought Zeng Li to the scene, and immediately set off a tsunami at the scene.
An entertainment reporter squatting on the periphery was ecstatic, struggled to squeeze out of the crowd, and handed the microphone to Zhou Yutang: "Director Zhou, has the casting of "Thieves" been confirmed?"
“It has not been finalized yet.”
Zhou Yutang smiled slightly: “Please pay attention to the official announcement for details.”
“I heard that this time it is a co-production between the two countries. May I ask about South Korea? Who will be chosen as the next actor? ”
"Still communicating with them."
"Mr. Zhou, Xu Jinglei broke up a few days ago. It is said that it was due to your intervention that the relationship changed. What do you want to say about this?"
< br>"She broke up?"
Zhou Yutang was slightly stunned. He really didn't know about this.
The entertainment reporter who only wanted to engage in scandals pressed forward and asked: "A paparazzi photographed you and Xu Jinglei coming out of a hotel together at night, acting intimately. Are you in a relationship?"
< br>
"This joke is not funny. We are just friends."
After dealing with entertainment reporters for a while, Zeng Li also responded to a few questions, and the two finally entered the venue.
"League of Thieves" is still in the early stage of casting. During this period, Zeng Li took advantage of the promotion period before "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was released, so he lay down happily in the capital.
I run the small teahouse with my best friend Hu Jing, and I also ask Zhou Yutang for advice on the things that a producer needs to pay attention to.
Zhou Yutang also taught everything he had without reservation.
After having dinner with Xu Jinglei that day, they returned to their love nest. During their chat, they mentioned that several big beauties had dated him.
Zeng Li didn’t care much about this.
She knows her place in Zhou Yutang's heart.
As soon as he entered the venue, he saw that his old friend Mei Ting was also there, so Zeng Li went over to chat with his friends and reminisce about old times.
Zhou Yutang is also dealing with the proactive greetings from Li Binbin, Deng Chao and others.
Li Lianhua is really not an ordinary person. Even though she failed in this audition, she didn't look unhappy at all and treated Zhou Yutang with the same enthusiasm as before.
After chatting with old friends, I happened to see the director of this film, Gao Qunshu, being interviewed by the media: "This is an unprecedented type of film in China. What I made is a mainstream film that can be enjoyed by both refined and popular people." For popular commercial films, both the most literate and the least literate audiences will find something interesting in this film."
""Big Shot" is off to a good start, I think. It is expected that the box office of "West Wind" will not be less than 300 million. Of course, if the situation is ideal, it is not impossible to achieve a box office of 400 million or 500 million. We can even look forward to the record of "Big Shot"
"West Wind" "Fierce" is successful, then it means that there is still hope for tomorrow's movies."
The media reporters at the scene were very excited.
Oh, director Gao Qunshu is targeting "Big Shot" and claims that "Western Wind" is the hope of Chinese movies.
Breaking news is coming, isn’t it?
When Zhou Yutang heard this, his expression twitched and his whole body choked.
It seems that the success of "Big Shot" has brought strong confidence to practitioners in the film industry. This tall and fat man really dares to brag.
Director Gao Qunshu is as round as a ball. He is also the director of "The Wind". The two of them had met several times at that time. When they met Zhou Yutang, their eyes immediately lit up and they laughed heartily:
"Yu Tang, I was talking about you just now. You came just in time."
The purpose of holding a premiere is to expose the movie. Now that Zhou Yutang is attending, there will be news.
He came up to say hello with a very affectionate look, and Zhou Yutang responded with a faint smile, "Hello, Director Gao."
In fact, he was not familiar with Gao Qunshu. This time It was because of Han Sanping's invitation and for Wu Jing's sake that he came over to support him.
Naturally, there was nothing to talk about with him. After polite greetings, he turned to chat with Wu Jing.
“Yu Tang, you are so awesome.”
Wu Jing has always been so direct in his speech: “I took Xie Nan to the cinema to watch that movie three times. You're so good, your acting is even better. Now that I see you, I can't help but want to punch you."
"Brother Jing, thank you."
Zhou Yutang too. Somewhat funny.
I watched it three times and it really contributed a lot to the box office.
"By the way, do you still need people for your "Thieves"?"
Wu Jing also had a smile on his baby face: "I can play a supporting role or a supporting role. I don't want a salary. , Just take care of the food, I'll come here and learn a few tricks from him."
The film "Spike" he directed and acted in was a disaster, but he did not give up directing, but became clear about his own abilities. cognition, choose to continue to accumulate learning.
He really wants to go further on the road of directing.
"Okay."
Zhou Yutang's heart moved slightly: "Then you can come over then."
The starring lineup for the Chinese side has basically been decided, and only the South Korean side still needs to be decided. Look again.
But for such a crime action drama, there is no problem in placing a few outstanding thugs in supporting roles.
Zhang Jing from his own company is planning to play a supporting role in "Thieves", and more Wu Jing would be good.
The standard process of introduction by the host + interview with the main creative staff went quickly.
Enter the movie screening session.
Everyone in the screening room cheered up.
This "Western Wind", which is the first shot of the New Year, is directed by Gao Qunshu, who was previously known as the "No. 1 policeman" in China, and also stars Duan Yihong, Ni Dahong, Zhang Li, Wu Jing, Wu Zhenyu, Yu Nan, Liu Xing PLUS, and Yang Caini starred in the film.
This lineup is nothing short of luxurious.
Almost all members are powerful.
The producers are China Film and Huayi. Huayilai was responsible for the promotion and distribution, and spent a lot of money.
This film tells the story of four western policemen with special skills, who went thousands of miles into the no-man's land of the Gobi to collect murders.
First, a large panoramic shot from a high place kicked off the movie.
A pair of male and female killers, played by Wu Zhenyu and Yu Nan, enter a dilapidated small village.
Then.
A huge, bright advertisement for Biqi brand antidiarrheal medicine came into view.
There was a pause for several seconds.
Zhou Yutang frowned slightly as he watched.
The beauty in green clothes sitting next to him captured Zhou Yutang's emotional changes very keenly.
Even if it was just for a fleeting moment, she cast a questioning look with concern. Zhou Yutang patted the back of Zeng Li's hand to indicate that she was fine.
I saw Ni Dahong and Zhang Li chasing the killer. Zhang Li had diarrhea on the way, and they even threw him a bottle of Biqi antidiarrheal medicine.
Zhou Yutang finally couldn't help but shook his head.
He is recognized as the king of advertising placement in the industry.
Almost every TV series and movie has many traces of advertising placement. Sometimes in projects he participated in, the filming cost can even be recovered by advertising placement alone.
This kind of operation has also been cited as a classic case by many companies in the industry.
But advertising placement in film and television works also requires timing.
Just like Liu Yifei in "My Love from the Star", the lipsticks and cosmetics she uses are obviously extremely natural and silky, which can actually arouse the audience's curiosity to learn about the products.
But such forced implantation in "Western Wind" will only make the audience feel that the drama is abrupt and lower the grade of the work.
After watching the movie, Zhou Yutang did not accept an interview and just took Zeng Li away.
The two of them exchanged ideas in the car, and Zeng Li also felt confused: "It feels like a lot of things have not been explained clearly."
Zhou Yutang laughed and said: "The logic of the plot is flawed, and the rhythm is poorly controlled. Gao Qunshu did it this time Smashed."
"Which one should I make?"
"I was looking forward to this first western movie, but this is the result."
"Haha, the first one? Check out "The Swordsman of Two Flags Town"."
"I was confused."
"A bad movie, a waste of my movie ticket money."
"Western Wind" received 40% of the film schedule, and the box office on the first day was only 16 million. For a movie with a total investment of more than 80 million, this is obviously unacceptable.
After the movie premiered, online word-of-mouth reviews were almost exclusively negative.
The audience’s eyes are sharp.
Before the movie was released, Gao Qunshu also said, "Zhou Yutang is now alone seeking defeat, and I am alone seeking victory" and "is expected to challenge "Big Shot"".
As a result, my face was swollen.
…………………………
The recording of the first episode of "Where Are We Going, Dad" started, and Zhou Yutang went to the scene.
Lingshui Village is only dozens of kilometers away from the city, which is not too far.
Although this is the first time to record a program, after training for a whole season of "Running Man", the people in the working team of Mingjie Company are very professional.
The kids were really cute. They screamed when they saw Zhou Yutang and took a group photo at the scene, which can be used for publicity.
For "Thieves Alliance", the cast of China has basically been confirmed.
This time Zhou Yutang named Chen Xi as the producer and asked her to stay in the country to do the preliminary preparations.
Coordinate actors' schedules, survey and select locations, determine shooting locations, serve as actors, and plan shooting tasks.
There are also advertising sponsorships that need to be discussed first. For a blockbuster like this, the crew’s preparatory work is very important.
These are not achievements that can be achieved overnight.
Because we still need to communicate with South Korea.
According to Pei Yun.
The best actors and actresses in Chungmulu over there have publicly expressed their interest in this film project, and took the initiative to submit their resumes to the South Korean branch of Kodong Entertainment.
Several entertainment giants are also excited.
We are even ready, just waiting for Zhou Yutang to come to South Korea and start public relations immediately.
The purpose is also to plug their own actors into the group.
A big project like this with an investment of over 100 million is very attractive to top actors over there.
At this time, Zhou Yutang.
Already on a plane to the other side of the ocean.
He glanced at the work itinerary report that Mao Xiaoyu had compiled.
Rubbing his eyes, the white clouds outside the window seemed to condense into that pure and beautiful face.
The corners of Zhou Yutang's lips curved slightly.
Go to the world's stunning banquet and see the beauty of the world's prosperous times.
I will go to see you with flowers in my hands.
In a windy place.
