Chapter 311: Loyal to Yue Fei, traveling in the circle
“Yu Tang.”
Jiang Wenli looked pleasant and had a particularly amiable attitude: “What do you think of Xiao Chun in that drama? Is it suitable for him? Her role? "
Has a relationship like Zhang Guoli.
We just worked together.
You could say they were acquaintances.
She spoke directly.
Zhou Yutang said tactfully: "Sister Li, we just finished the meeting. Those roles have been decided internally by the company."
"That's it."
Jiang Wenli's voice No disappointment either.
She guessed that it was a matter of whether there were dates or not.
But in the end, he was encouraged to ask Xiao Ma to go out.
Zhou Yutang put the phone aside and rubbed his forehead, feeling a slight headache.
It’s not that he received too many backdoor calls through connections. Hairun’s Chang Jihong and Wang Jinghua both called and wanted to recruit people into the team, but he rejected them all.
That's how he does things.
It’s good to know that we must give priority to our own artists.
Ma Sichun is not like him, so he naturally ranks at the back.
If there is a problem with the role adaptation of our own artist, we will only audition for the outside world.
What gave him a big headache was Jiang Wenli's tireless efforts to draw the red line.
He expressed his rejection to classmate Xiao Ma, but Jiang Wenli was persistent enough and seemed unwilling to give up.
At this moment, I received a call from Damimi,
“Why are you joining in the fun?”
“I want to try such a good opportunity.”
Yang Mi's voice did not conceal her ambition at all: "Yu Tang, do you think I have a chance?"
"Can you hold on?"
Zhou Yutang knew her little thoughts, shook his head and laughed: "When will "Painted Skin 2" be finished?"
"It will be over soon."
"When you come back, you will join the group "Reply 1997" , I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
“I can play.”
Da Mimi’s sweet voice always sounds like she’s acting coquettishly.
Not afraid of hardship or tiredness, this fighting spirit moved even Zhou Yutang.
"Why are you working so hard?"
"I want to make progress so much."
"."
Zhou Yutang knew she was playing tricks.
The video of his speech at Nortel not long ago was posted online, and now netizens are eager to make progress.
"If you want to make progress, rely on yourself. Don't always think about going through the back door."
"I'll just ask."
Yang Mi's voice is as sweet as honey: " Yu Tang, I bought a very sexy nightgown."
"Thieves" was finally fully successful, with a final domestic box office of 1.128 billion.
The total box office of Hong Kong and Benzhou exceeded 100 million, making it the most influential movie in both places that year.
Neon also performed well at the box office, but Zhou Yutang negotiated with Sony to buy out the copyright for a total price of 8 million US dollars, which is also a large amount of income.
As for South Korea, it is the film that has been the box office champion for the longest time since its release.
A total of 14.21 million moviegoers, with a box office of 111.8 billion won, has broken the South Korean movie box office record held by "Big Shot" last year.
According to the box office accounts there, the value-added tax and the film development fund must first be deducted.
After deducting these two items, the cinema will deduct 50% of the income, distribution fees, and other miscellaneous expenses
Nevertheless.
This movie still tops the box office list in South Korea.
It has brought benefits beyond imagination to Zhou Yutang.
Because we have a market base in South Korea, we did not choose to buy out the copyright.
All the film companies in the industry are jealous.
This movie.
Zhou Yutang really gained both fame and fortune.
The big leaders above also have bright faces.
To achieve such results for a project that was personally designated is definitely a sign that the instructions are in place.
The seminar was a natural fit for the occasion.
A large number of experts and professors in the film and television industry.
As usual, it’s about policy.
The government has formulated a series of macro policies to support the cultural industry in order to export culture in the great era.
The entertainment industry must also develop in the direction of all-media, globalization, and the entire industry chain
The seminar is over.
Zhou Yutang flashed out quickly, preparing to find Liu Tianxian, but was dragged to tea by Mr. Guangguang on the way.
"Yu Tang, congratulations on the box office success of "Thieves"."
Light Wang Changtian's voice was filled with envy that could not be concealed.
After missing this project, he couldn't sleep for several nights.
Zhou Yutang also smiled and said: "Mr. Wang, for the National Day holiday, I'll just watch your movie "Painting on the Wall" by Guang Guang."
After the summer season, the National Day season will follow.
"It's difficult."
Wang Changtian shook his head and said with a wry smile: "On the National Day schedule, there is also China Film's "The Founding of the Party", and you also participated in it."
This is a mission-oriented movie.
Movies released at the same time will naturally suffer from film schedules, and "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" is a good example.
"The company will go public in a while, and you are also a shareholder. Do you want to ring the bell together?"
"I'll forget it, I have to be busy casting."
Zhou Yutang said softly smiled.
"The drama "Search"?"
"That's right."
"It's good to be young, full of energy."
"Mr. Wang, you are also in the prime of life."
Old Wang praised himself. , Zhou Yutang also responded, and the two exchanged polite business compliments.
Then we talked for a while about company operations and industry prospects.
It can be seen that Lao Wang is also looking forward to the future of the company after it goes public.
Enlight went public, and the China Securities Regulatory Commission required that Enlight Pictures be merged into Enlight Media and packaged for listing.
I don’t know what twists and turns it went through, but in the end, Wang Changtian had the last laugh in the power struggle between the two brothers.
Zhang Zhao will leave his job soon, but senior talents like him have nowhere to go. He has long been hooked up with the ambitious boss Jia of LeTV.
Wang Changtian turned a blind eye to this.
As for director Chen Jiashang, Zhang Zhao's confidant and chairman of the Hong Kong Film Awards, the "Painted Skin" he collaborated with Huayi was very amazing.
After that, he was hooked up by Zhang Zhao and signed several film contracts in succession, but the results were not satisfactory.
That "Fine of War" movie caused Guangguang to lose blood. When the contract ends, if the "Four Famous Catchers" series does not bring enough profits, he will pack up and get out.
Profit is the eternal theme of this circle.
Lao Wang of Guangguang said this to Zhou Yutang, a bit sincerely.
The topic was full of twists and turns, but Zhou Yutang was not in a hurry to leave. Liu Tianxian was attending an event and would end later.
At this time, Wang Changtian suddenly received a call. He seemed to have remembered something and said, "Yu Tang, a friend will be coming over later."
"Then I will withdraw first. "
Zhou Yutang took the hardcover tea box prepared for him and prepared to escape.
Now everyone in the industry knows that he likes to drink tea.
Han Sanping and Wang Changtian always prepare some fine tea every time they meet.
"No, that person is here just for you." After hearing what Wang Changtian said, Zhou Yutang became a little interested.
In just a few minutes, a middle-aged man with glasses and a polo shirt, who looked elegant, pushed in the door.
“Yu Tang, this is Cao Huayi from Xinli Media, Mr. Cao.”
"Hello, Mr. Cao."
"Hello, Mr. Zhou. I finally see you."
Cao Huayi came up very politely and held Zhou Yutang's hand with both hands. Shake.
Before this, the two had met at some cocktail parties and award ceremonies.
Just a nod of acquaintance, not much friendship,
Wang Changtian smiled and said: "Yu Tang, I came to see you today. Actually, there is something I want to ask you for help with."
Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at Cao Huayi next to him: "Mr. Wang has to do something TV series? "
Cao Huayi, the new boss of Xinli, was secretly surprised.
This young man has really keen observation skills.
Wang Changtian poured a cup of tea for Zhou Yutang with a gentle smile on his face: "Actually, we have this plan. Have you heard about the project "Jing Zhong Yue Fei"?"
"How do you say it?"
Zhou Yutang became a little interested.
Wang Changtian and Cao Huayi looked at each other, and continued: "This drama is controlled by Enlight and Xinli Media. The information is here."
"Let me take a look. ”
Zhou Yutang put down his crossed legs, took the small stack of information, and began to look through it.
This is the first TV series about Yue Fei in China, and he is also very interested in it.
The cost budget is 120 million, and the male lead Huang Xiaoming and the female lead Fan Binbin are tentatively selected. The remuneration of these two people is not as good as Zhou Yutang, but it is not low. Part of the remuneration is used to offset the investment share. Huang Xiaoming's studio and Fan Binbin The studio is also one of the producers.
Seeing that Zhou Yutang had read the information almost completely, Wang Changtian asked:
"Yu Tang, are you interested in doing this together?"
Come out of Guangguang Media.
Zhou Yutang went to pick up Liu Tianxian first.
I kept making phone calls and arranging things on the way.
We have reached an agreement with Guangguang Laowang and Cao Huayi. He will guest star in this drama and take on part of the publicity tasks.
He also serves as the producer, artistic director, literary planner, and script development of this drama.
Receiving several salaries at the same time, and finally converting the investment share, can also allow Jiang Xuezhen to lead Zhouyi's behind-the-scenes team to accumulate experience and prepare for Jiangdong Entertainment's own big drama.
Lao Wang and Cao Huayi also felt that it was very profitable. As long as they could get Zhou Yutang to work on this drama together, it would be worth spending no matter how much money they spent.
"Xiao Zhou, how did you get involved with Xinli Media?"
Liu Yifei leaned on Zhou Yutang's shoulder, listening to him call Jiang Xueyuan to explain the matter, slightly He blinked his beautiful eyes curiously.
"They are all people from this circle. In fact, the ones standing at the top are the ones who have to deal with each other sooner or later."
"Cao Huayi is also from the Beijing circle, right?"< br>
"You actually know about the Beijing Circle?"
"I'm not indifferent to the world."
Liu Tianxian looked at Zhou Yutang's deliberately surprised look and raised his elbow angrily to him.
This girl usually exercises a lot and is very energetic.
Zhou Yutang sucked in a breath of cold air, Liu Tianxian rubbed him, took the initiative to come up and kissed him, and said in a slightly coquettish tone:
"Stop pretending, I know it won't hurt you."
"Xiao Zhou, is Cao Huayi very powerful?"
"Quite capable."
Zhou Yutang smiled and told Liu Tianxian these twists and turns of relationships.
In his early years, Cao Huayi worked with Hai Yan, a big boss in the Beijing circle, and worked as the general manager of his home, Sheng Chunqiu Film and Television. At that time, the vice president was Zhou Yanxi, another strongman in the TV drama industry.
After a few years of glory, Haiyan gradually fell behind, and these two fledgling producers set out to establish their own business.
Cao Huayi first founded Xinli Media and is an alumnus of Guangguang CEO Wang Changtian.
Lao Wang also took a lot of shares in Xinli Media.
Lao Cao’s wife Gai Lili has a close connection with Beijing circles. She is not only a classmate of Poet Chen’s wife Chen Hong, but she also frequents a celebrity club, the Mengzhou Sports Club founded by Zhang Ruojun and his father. .
Although Zhang Zhen’s father is not famous and does not have many projects, he has deep connections in the industry.
Including Chen Kaige, Chen Daoming, Zhao Baogang, Ge You, Yu Rongguang, Zhang Fengyi and others, many celebrities in the Beijing circle are members of his Mengzhou Sports Club.
Zhang Ruojun has often seen Chen Daoming playing mahjong at his house since he was a child.
"That's it."
Liu Yifei nodded suddenly.
She felt a little dizzy just listening to such a complicated relationship.
"I'll take you to expand my network another day."
"I still won't go."
Liu Yifei shook her head and leaned into his arms: "Actually, I'm not very good at these interactions. My mother is in charge of socializing. In that situation, I am afraid that I will say the wrong thing and embarrass others.”
“Forget it”
Thinking of her. Not being a sweet-natured person, Zhou Yutang put his arms around Liu Tianxian's small waist and said in a doting tone: "You don't have to socialize anymore. When you encounter something in the circle, just tell me my name and I will give you face."
"Xiao Zhou, do you have such a big reputation?"
"Of course."
Zhou Yutang smiled calmly and said: "Whoever dares to mess with you in the future will have no objection to beating him."
< br>Why focus on progress?
The main reason is to stand higher.
Can have a greater say.
This is how you can protect yourself and the women around you.
Today, he has shares in Huayi and Enlight, and is deeply tied to China Film and Shanghai Film Group.
Say something arrogant.
Beijing and Shanghai circles can be traveled almost equally.
Hong Kong also has powerful allies like Ying Huang.
Some people joke that Jiangdong Entertainment is gradually growing into the biggest player in the entertainment industry.
Although it is just a joke, it is enough to show that Zhou Yutang's wings are gradually becoming fuller and stronger.
"Xiao Zhou, you are so awesome"
As if infected by Zhou Yutang's confidence and domineering, Liu Tianxian looked at the handsome side face.
The bodies leaned closer together.
It seems to be melting into his arms.
Two years ago, my mother got into trouble.
It was also Xiao Zhou who came forward to help settle matters.
Liu Yifei, who was watching him silently, always knew.
He kept moving forward.
Didn’t stop.
A League of Thieves has made him the first billionaire box office director, and he has received countless flowers and applause.
But he still didn't think about stopping and enjoying it.
As far as Liu Yifei knows about her schedule, Zhou Yutang has at least two movies planned this year.
A "Search" has entered the final stage of casting.
A guest appearance in "Xiu Chun Knife".
In addition, while taking time to prepare the script for himself, he also had to worry about the affairs of the special effects company and began to prepare for the super-large project of "Now You See Me".
His energy , it’s so exuberant that it’s scary.
Think about yourself again.
Liu Yifei felt that she seemed to be a little too salty.
Since this year, I haven’t taken any roles yet. I have been busy with some commercials.
"My Love from the Star" has earned her countless traffic, and she has also received many high-end endorsements that female stars in the entertainment industry only dream of.
"Xiao Zhou, you still have to make a guest appearance in that TV series. Aren't you tired?"
"It's okay if you get used to it."
Zhou Yutang chuckled and said: "Actually, it's just a name. I'll give my opinion on the script and let the screenwriter studio improve it. There won't be many guest roles."
"You don't have to use our script for now. Urgent."
"Why?"
Zhou Yutang was slightly curious: "Didn't you say that Aunt Liu was anxious?"
Liu Tianxian leaned into Zhou Yutang's arms and murmured. He whispered: "Because, I don't want you to work so hard."
