Chapter 300 Stunning and famous scenes, the power of a great director
Zhou Yutang finished recording "Running Man" and appeared on another episode of "The Voice".
They are all our own programs.
To increase the exposure and influence of movies, popular variety shows are a must-see.
Fan Xiaopang is also a busy man. He just finished recording the program here. By the way, he had an in-depth discussion with Zhou Yutang about the road show promotion work for the upcoming movie. He left for Shenzhen the next day. There was a businessman there. The schedule of activities includes advertising shooting, so we will come over to meet up on the day of the movie premiere.
This special episode of "Running Man" Thieves Alliance was recorded in the Magic City.
The most popular couple Zhou Yutang and Fan Binbin teamed up to appear on "Running Man". During the recording of the show, many fans got wind of it and went directly to the scene to block the show.
Enthusiastic fans blocked the park intersection where the photo was taken, and it became a hot search topic on Weibo afterwards.
Another hot search on Weibo is that Mingjie Company announced the purchase of an office building in Shanghai.
"Mingjie Company's current office space is a leased space and does not have its own office building. In order to adapt to the company's business development needs, promote the smooth implementation of the company's overall strategy, and improve the company's asset allocation, the company decided to acquire equity through equity acquisition Purchase an office building"
There was an uproar inside and outside the circle.
“According to the housing prices in Shanghai and the average price in this area, this newly purchased company building will probably cost several hundred million. Mingjie Company is really rich.”
“ Trivia, the copyright of "The Voice", which has been sold to Europe and the United States, as well as the popular variety shows "Running Man" and "Where Are We Going, Dad" are all produced by this company, which is the leading domestic variety show production company."
" Hot knowledge, Zhou Yutang is the major shareholder of this company.”
“Real or false? Isn’t Zhou Yutang the boss of Jiangdong Entertainment?”
"Upstairs, if you check online, you will know that among the big bosses now, which one doesn't hold a bunch of company shares in their hands?"
"I'm curious, how much is Zhou Yutang's net worth?"
Frenzy discussions began on the Internet, and Zhou Yutang once again stood at the forefront.
Also at this time.
The movie "Snowflake and the Secret Fan" that was hotly hyped by the media was released.
The box office on the first day was 8.89 million, which surprised countless people who paid attention to this movie.
The top team in Hollywood was agreed upon.
International luxury cast.
Is this the result?
Even Huang Bo and Jiang Yiyan's "Pretend to Be Couple" with an average cast had a box office of 7.8 million on the first day.
Although the director of "Snowflake and the Secret Fan" has repeatedly reiterated that this is a "folklore and historical blockbuster" that shows the friendship between women of different eras.
But it is an indisputable fact that it contains some homosexual content, and it is outrageous that it can pass censorship and be released.
This film also proves that it is not feasible to shoot Eastern stories from a cultural perspective that caters to the West.
Li Lianhua's fans comforted themselves: "It's a good achievement for a literary and artistic film."
"Nothing else, "Mr. Tree" produced by Zhou Yutang's company some time ago was also a literary and artistic film. , won a lot of awards, and the box office seems to be about the same, right?”
"When "Mr. Tree" was released, the final box office was 48.2 million. Can "Snowflake and the Secret Fan" have 50 million?"
"The original novel is very well written, but the movie adaptation is too big and makes people speechless. ”
“Traveling back and forth between ancient and modern times, viewers felt dizzy and left the theater early for the first time.”
Since the movie was released, polarization has become serious.
A reporter took a photo of the audience's reaction in the theater, which explains the situation very well.
Some male audience members yawned profusely, while the female audience members on the side clung to their besties and cried and choked with sobs.
The overwhelmingly positive press release cannot be saved. The market has already given the best answer. This film is destined to be a loss.
Previously it was rumored that Wendi Deng took the lead in organizing the film, and the wife of the president of MGM Film Company jointly invested. When the box office of the movie came out on the first day, it was immediately clarified that the producer also had domestic funds, Xiong Xiaoge's Carly Age Film and Television Culture and Shanghai Film Group are also producers.
For this movie, Wendi Deng originally approached Zhang Ziyi first, but after the "Splash Ink Gate" incident, Zhang Ziyi was replaced by Li Binbin.
Anyway.
Deng Wendi’s first step in laying out domestic entertainment was considered a failure.
Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Studio called, his attitude became more and more eager: "Yu Tang, when is the premiere of "The Thief" scheduled?"
"The premiere is on the 29th."
“Okay, I will definitely come over then!”
Fat Wang from Hong Kong is a very interesting person.
My dad is TVB veteran Wang Tianlin, the same Dumbledore who was defeated by Alec in the movie "Underworld".
Wang Jing relied on Wang Tianlin's relationship to write scripts for TVB when he debuted. Later, he finally had the opportunity to direct a movie by himself.
He makes his own movies.
The sole principle.
Cannot lose money.
For him, movies are business, not art.
The most important thing is to let investors make money.
It is really simple and unpretentious, which is in sharp contrast to the high style of Wang Jiawei, another great director in Hong Kong.
Later, he moved to the mainland, and "Xiao Bao and Kangxi" became popular in one fell swoop, including Zhang Weijian, the crazy beauty Jiang Yuyan in "Little Fish and Flowers", and the rare martial arts drama "The Best in the World" in recent years. , all of which were created by Fatty Wang.
Fatty Wang has received a lot of criticism from the outside world, and many people have called him a bad movie maker, but Fatty Wang still lives a healthy life.
Few people know that Fatty Wang actually invested in many literary films behind the scenes.
Xu Anhua and Wang Jing have a very good personal relationship and have been friends for more than ten years.
The two often get together in private, Xu Anhua tells stories, and Wang Jing decides whether to invest.
In the movie "Night and Fog in Tin Shui Wai", Fatty Wang is the investor behind the scenes.
This time Xu Anhua came to the capital to meet the big boss. Fatty Wang was in the capital and followed him to Jiangdong Building.
"Mr. Zhou, I have admired you for a long time. I came here specially to study."
Fatty Wang was wearing a black POLO shirt with a round belly. He was quite modest. He grabbed Zhou Yutang's hands with a smile and shook them vigorously. .
"Director Wang, nice to meet you."
Zhou Yutang is also very interested in Wang Jingting.
People of his generation basically grew up watching movies by Fatty Wang and others.
After working in the film and television industry, he also studied the fat man's movies. Like Mr. Xu, he was very good at photographing women.
There is a saying on the Internet that there are several famous scenes of beauties in Xiangjiang movies,
Zuxian's dressing in A Chinese Ghost Story, Zhang Yan's looking back in "The Heaven Slays the Dragon", Shuzhen's red lip biting in God of Gamblers 2 Qingxia pours wine in Swordsman and Swordsman
Almost half of them are made by Mr. Xu.
The other half are Fatty Wang’s movies.
It can make a 90-point beauty look like a 120-point one.
This is indeed worth learning.
We all exchanged pleasantries for a while. For the film "Sister Tao", the editing work was done by Jiangdong Entertainment.
"We can spend 30 million to make a literary film. Mr. Zhou’s courage and structure are really admirable.”
Wang Jing smiled like a Maitreya: “I have been in the mainland for so long, and only after meeting Mr. Zhou do I know what movies should be like now. Do.”
"I heard that Director Wang lives in the capital, so we can communicate and learn from each other in the future."
Zhou Yutang chuckled softly, and Fatty Wang's smile became brighter: "That's right, I have long wanted to learn from Mr. Zhou. .”
This meeting.
It was quite a pleasant conversation.
It’s hard to dislike such a guy with such high emotional intelligence and flattery.
Fatty Wang is a rare smart person in Hong Kong circles.
A few years ago, he shifted his business center to the mainland.
In order to integrate into the mainland market.
I have basically been living in Beijing in the past few years. I have also watched almost all mainland movies, researching and pondering the styles suitable for the mainland film market, and want to make comedies that suit the tastes of mainland audiences.
There are constant scandals outside the court, but there is no big loss. In terms of stance, there is no problem.
The post-production work of the film is not accomplished overnight. Xu Anhua has to spend a lot of time in the capital.
Zhou Yutang made arrangements for accommodation in advance, and also invited Xu Anhua and Fatty Wang to have a meal together.
During the banquet.
After three drinks, Zhou Yutang asked: "Is Director Wang's "The God of Wealth Inn" about to be released?"
"Mr. Zhou still knows about my drama?"
"Haha, I've heard a little about it."
"Eh, it's not popular."
Fatty Wang said He waved his hand and said with a smile: "I came across "Thieves Alliance". I hope Director Zhou will be merciful and I won't lose money."
In his movie "The God of Wealth Inn", Bona invested 20 million. The original plan was to give it a try in the summer season.
However, after "A League of Thieves" was announced to be released in the summer, we made a prompt decision and moved it to release in mid-June.
Fatty Wang’s idea is very simple.
He would rather compete with "Snowflake and the Secret Fan" with a luxurious cast.
I don’t want to go head-to-head with Zhou Yutang, a new commercial film director.
The box office of "Snowflake and the Secret Fan" is still tepid. For such a luxurious cast, the box office is indistinguishable from "Pretend Couple" by Huang Bo and Jiang Yiyan. I guess Aunt Deng who organized the show will be depressed. to vomiting blood.
At this time, "The God of Wealth Inn" directed by Fatty Wang was released next.
Although it is called a bad movie maker, the film's first-day box office of 9.8 million can recover its cost at the first weekend box office alone.
It’s not that the quality of this movie is excellent, but that its competitors at the same time were really awkward.
Bad to bad, it has grasped the sinking market of movies.
Fatty Wang once again made his investor father make money.
The final promotional period before the release of "Thieves".
Zhou Yutang did not forget to take some time out from his busy schedule to date Liu Tianxian.
At this time, Shu Chang had already gone to Qingdao to film "Magic Phone 2". Without the light bulb, the two of them spent more time alone together.
After hugging each other tenderly in the car, Liu Tianxian played with Zhou Yutang's big, well-jointed hands.
The outside world praises Zhou Yutang as the face of Asia's ceiling, but Liu Yifei likes Zhou Yutang's hands the most.
Like some kind of beautiful work of art.
When we are together.
She especially likes to put her hands together with Zhou Yutang's palms.
Fingers intertwined, water and milk blend together.
There is a strange sense of satisfaction.
Even if Zhou Yutang is dating, she still has a lot of things to deal with.
Every time this time.
Liu Yifei was very sensible and kept silent, holding his hand quietly.
Just as he likes to touch his waist gently.
Zhou Yutang was left with only one hand to send messages.
Shh!
Made a quiet gesture, Zhou Yutang's cell phone rang, and he answered the call. A polite smile instantly appeared on his dazzlingly handsome face:
"Liu Brother, congratulations, "Before Dawn" won the Magnolia TV Series Gold Award."
"Haha, you got the news."
Liu Jiang's loud laughter came from the phone.
Liu Tianxian leaned on Zhou Yutang's shoulder and held his hand, knowing the identity of the caller.
Director Liu Jiang, who just won the most popular director at the Shanghai TV Festival.
When Xiao Zhou first debuted, it seemed that he had a good relationship with him. At that time, they collaborated on the movie "Let's Get Married", and Gao Yuanyuan's Carambola became a hit.
At that time, there were also scandals about the relationship between brother and sister.
Knowing that Zhou Yutang would be cooperating with Gao Yuanyuan in a movie, Liu Tianxian felt a little resentful and held Zhou Yutang's hand to his mouth.
Tan opened his mouth slightly and took a small bite, leaving slight tooth marks.
Director Liu Jiang seemed to be in a good mood, with a smile in his voice: "Yu Tang, Song Wen is a good actor. He almost won another TV Series trophy this time."
"Magnolia TV Series" , forget it, Zhang Jiayi is also good.”
Zhou Yutang smiled slightly: “Brother Liu, it’s a pity that he didn’t win the best director.”
Magnolia this time. "Before Dawn" won the Gold Award for TV Drama, produced by Galloping Horses, and "Three Kingdoms" directed by Gao Xixi won the Magnolia Silver Award for TV Drama.
Director Liu Jiang was nominated for Best Screenplay, Best TV Series, and Best Director.
Zhang Songwen was nominated as a TV star for "Before Li Ming", and Zhang Ruojun also received his first TV star nomination for his outstanding acting skills in "Snow Leopard".
But before that, Zhang Songwen had already taken the White Magnolia Emperor, so it was impossible to connect the village this time.
As for Zhang Ruojun, he was still young and lost to Zhang Jiayi without any suspense.
Let’s not mention Zhang Jiayi’s Shanghai background. He has gained momentum in recent years, and his performance in "Borrowing a Gun" is also worthy of praise.
In addition, Zeng Li was once again nominated for Best Actress for "The Legend of Zhen Huan". She also failed to win the Best Actress Award from Magnolia Zhuang. In the end, it was Chen Shu from "Tie Lihua" who won the Best Actress trophy.
"The gold medal for TV series is not bad."
Liu Jiang paused, then continued to smile and asked: "I'll be back tomorrow. The premiere of "Thieves Alliance" is on the 29th, right?"< br>
“Welcome Senior Brother Liu to come and support us.”
“I will come over for a drink then.”
The chat lasted several minutes before ending.
Liu Tianxian looked up at that beautiful little face and took the initiative to claim credit: "Xiao Zhou, I specially spared a day in my schedule to attend the premiere of You's movie. How do you want to thank me? "
"Then I have nothing to repay, I can only pledge myself to you."
Zhou Yutang looked touched, put down his phone, and wrapped his arms around Liu Yifei's waist with a familiar touch. Take her into your arms.
"You hate it, who wants you to tickle me with me?"
That place is a sensitive area. Liu Yifei twisted her body a few times, but could not escape Zhou Yutang's grasp: "It seems that "Martial Arts" directed by Chen Kexing will also be released by then. Are you nervous?"
" Haha."
Zhou Yutang smiled back, and with a little strength in his arms, he picked up Liu Yifei's body and placed it on his lap.
Liu Tianxian is tall and has long legs.
I usually exercise a lot.
Not that kind of paper beauty.
Lean where it should be thin, and there should be meat where there should be meat.
Zhou Yutang gently hooked his hand around her waist, and felt a soft and delicate touch in front of her.
He pressed his lips to Liu Tianxian's lips very rudely.
A long time.
Just separated.
Liu Tianxian's crystal-white ears were heavily flushed. She brushed her hair around her ears to cover up her shyness, and gave him a charming glance:
"What were you laughing at just now? ."
"When the time comes, you will know that it is him who should be nervous."
