Chapter 415 Sweeping Asia, the limelight is unparalleled
“Haha.”
The female reporter was so amused that she trembled: “Let’s return to the movie, “Bouquet” made the audience It gave me a very deep thought, what do you think is the most important thing in a relationship between a man and a woman?”
“In a relationship between a man and a woman, the most important thing is probably that they have similar views, similar interests, and there must be topics to talk about. If one day you feel that you have nothing to say to the other person, then it is time for the relationship to end."
"Director Zhou, you seem to be very experienced."
"It's not that I have experience, it's mainly because I have a friend who has been in many relationships."
"Director Zhou, you are so funny!"
Female reporter smiled: "" "Bouquet" is a movie about love in real life. Netizens say that you are very insightful about love. Do you have any advice for young people to fall in love? "
"Me too? "I don't know how to fall in love."
Zhou Yutang said with a smile: "If you really want to say it, no matter whether you are a man or a woman, don't be a sheep. Before you love others, you must first learn to love yourself and give more to yourself. Focus on improving yourself”
"Improve yourself?"
"Yes, fitness, reading, these are all self-improvements. Don't think that the other person is good-looking and think that it is your destiny. That is just looking for sex. Think about it while you are young. Make more money.”
“I understand.”
The female reporter’s eyes lit up with admiration: “That’s why Director Zhou has made so much money.”
From being at the top of the Forbes Celebrity List for several consecutive years to now becoming a hot nomination on the Rich List, Zhou Yutang can be said to be a super diamond in the entertainment industry.
"I will continue to work hard."
Zhou Yutang smiled noncommittally: "Economic issues are always very real. It is recommended that young people make good career plans and have sufficient financial capabilities to have the confidence to make a living for themselves. Don’t worry about the other half’s future.”
No money, no progress.
How can you cover so many older sisters?
“I have benefited a lot from listening to you.”
The female reporter sighed with emotion: "Director Zhou, do you have any plans to continue making such love movies in the future?"
"No more."
"No more?" This answer It was obviously beyond the female reporter’s expectation.
"The first love of campus youth, the love of social reality."
Zhou Yutang said calmly: "The love I want to express has already been expressed. If nothing else, this should be me The last love-themed movie.”
"That's really a pity."
"It's not a pity."
Zhou Yutang smiled: "There are many other types of movies, such as "Shocking" which I will make soon. "The Band of Thieves", this blockbuster has been in preparation for nearly a year. If the filming goes well, I hope to see you at the end of the year. "
"When the time comes, I will definitely go to the cinema to support it."
“The Youth Movie Emperor’s Last Dance!”
"The dream of more than a billion girls is about to awaken!"
"Let me take stock of the classic youth romance films that Zhou Yutang has brought to the audience over the years."
"It is reported that "Love Like a Bouquet" This will be Zhou Yutang’s last romantic film, and from now on, he will bid farewell to romance films!”
At this time, “Bouquet” is extremely popular, and Sina’s exclusive interview immediately released the explosive news, leaving no room for suspense! It made headlines, and various entertainment news outlets also reported on it.
Among the 10 hot searches on Weibo, at least six or seven are about Zhou Yutang's last dance in "Bouquet", and he will bid farewell to romance-themed movies.
"Zhou Yutang, please, please make a few more movies, one a year, otherwise the foreigner next door will think that I look down on you!" - Liu Dehu
"I just want to know how many relationships Zhou Gou had to fall in love with before he could make a movie. Such a profound love movie? "——Love is like a tide
"Not many, according to incomplete statistics, including Liu Yifei, Zeng Li, Gao Yuanyuan, Liu Shishi, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Li Yao ..."——Ji Chenhui
"Master, please bow to me as a disciple."——Sunshine Boy Xu Sheng
"I'm taking note of it, I've already taken it with my notebook. ”——Liu Li Jiyue
"Sissi, forget it. Zhou Gou was born in 1988. You can't play with him." - Tianxian Flesh Rice Right?" - Wu Xinshe Liu ""Those Years" is also a classic, thank you" - The Lion King KKK
"First there is "Those Years", and then there is "Bouquet Like". "Love", Zhou Yutang is undoubtedly the ceiling of youth romance movies."
"..."
Zhou Yutang also enjoyed the treatment of heraldry classmates.
"Don't be a hot sheep", "What women care about is their attitude", "Before you love others, love yourself first", "Ordinary boy Zhou Yutang, ordinary girl Liu Yifei" and other golden quotes began to become popular on the Internet.
It’s just that the 100 love words they said to Ma Yili, and Zhou Yutang’s various sobering quotes from the world, make people understand the reality more clearly.
No one thought it was against the rules.
Herald classmate plays the role of an affectionate young husband, while Zhou Yutang is a well-known playboy.
Netizens jokingly called him the Patriarch of Love, and the power of emotion gradually emerged.
The younger generation of audiences have basically seen Zhou Yutang’s film and television works.
Either I got into the trap with the hit "Want to Meet You", or I was attracted by "Those Years", or other youth-themed film and television works written and produced by Zhou Yutang.
The popularity of domestic entertainment is no joke.
So when he was about to withdraw from the field of youth romance films, the comments on the Internet were completely boiling, and the passion for watching movies was completely aroused.
The overwhelming emotional marketing offensive was a terrifying exposure, which directly fed into the box office of "Love in a Bouquet".
In the next few days, those theaters understood the idea and began to increase the number of films scheduled. The box office performance of "Bouquet of Love" is still strong.
74.35 million!
73.32 million!
75.19 million!
The theaters are not messing around. The improvement in film schedule is based on the fact that this romantic movie has an attendance rate of more than 90% in almost every show.
The morale here is high, but the daily box office of "Painted Skin 2", which was released at the same time over there, has dropped to more than 20 million due to poor reputation.
After an explosive start, although "Painted Skin 2" still performed strongly, it was steadily surpassed by "Bouquet of Love" in terms of reputation.
However.
This is not the beginning of glory.
"Love Like a Bouquet" also grossed more than 30 million at the box office on its first weekend in Hong Kong and Benzhou.
News just came out from Showbox that the film successfully exceeded 1 million viewers after 3 days of release in South Korea.
After "My Love from the Star", Zhou Yutang and Liu Yifei, the magical couple, have returned to the big screen again and have dominated South Korea's naver search.
Over the neon side, there is also good news coming.
The film attracted 133,000 viewers in the first two days of the weekend and earned 191 million yen at the box office. Its box office performance ranked first among love-themed movies this year.
There are flowers outside the wall and fragrance inside.
The news spread back to China one after another, and the entire entertainment industry was shocked.
The headlines of those entertainment portals were all about Zhou Yutang, and even the limelight of "Painted Skin 2" was suppressed.
“How is this possible?!”
Huayi’s Mr. Wang was in a meeting with the company’s film department and looked in disbelief after receiving first-hand information.
All hotels to celebrate the summer release of "Painted Skin 2" have been booked in advance.
Several senior executives in the film department also looked at each other.
Sounds a bit outrageous.
But what happened to Zhou Yutang seems to be understandable. After "My Love from the Star", he became famous all over Asia. Last year, "A League of Thieves" even topped the South Korean movie box office list. It is still at the top of the list and has attracted countless South Korean film and television circles. People came to the West eight times in a row, beating their chests and feet angrily.
This time, even the Neon Movie Market was penetrated.
“According to this trend.”
Wang Zhonglei stared closely at the latest box office data and frowned: “Maybe in another week, “Painted Skin 2” will be at the top of the list. I won’t be able to stabilize myself.”
Don’t look at Mr. Wang’s tricks, I am still professional and have no problem with my basic judgment.
It’s not that we can’t do anything, it’s that the enemy is too evil!
The top executives of the film department looked at each other with big eyes.
To be fair, "Painted Skin 2" was indeed a hit, but it encountered such a powerful opponent as Zhou Yutang.
Wang Zhonglei put down the information, pressed his eyebrows, and sighed: "Is his movie "Now You See Me" going to be released for the Lunar New Year?"
"That's what he said."
“What about the National Day period?”
"Mr. Wang, there is Wen Muye's "Rescue Mr. My" in Jiangdong in September, and the National Day schedule is the martial arts film "Xiu Chun Dao" by Jiangdong's new director Lu Yang."
Huayi Film Department The supervisor, Chen Guofu, was very professional. He pushed up his glasses and reported everything in detail without reading any information.
""Tai Chi from Scratch" will compete for the National Day slot."
Wang Zhonglei clenched his fist and smashed the table, gritted his teeth and said: "The publicity expenses will be increased by another 20 million on the original basis. If you can't beat Zhou Yutang, can you beat this new director Lu Yang?"
A voice of agreement suddenly sounded in the conference room: "Congratulations, Mr. Wang!"
"Bouquet" has been a hit at the box office, grossing 452 million in its first week, and the movie has received rave reviews.
However, as we enter the second week, the box office will inevitably decline.
The effect of emotional marketing can only have a stimulating effect, just like a weak man who takes a tonic and suddenly feels strong for a while, but it is impossible to stay strong forever.
The same goes for movie box office.
What Zhou Yutang wants is to get the first start.
Judging from the current situation, it has completely achieved its goal. Although it is still below "Painted Skin 2" for the time being, the daily box office growth of "Painted Skin 2" has dropped below 20 million.
Entering its second week, the daily box office of "Love in a Bouquet" remains at around 40 million.
Liu Yifei is visibly happy these days.
It's like playing a game. Your thighs will fly you directly, and you will become the king by lying down and winning.
"Bouquet of Love" was a box office hit in Asia, and Zhou Yutang easily helped her take away the title of box office poison left by "The King of Kung Fu".
In addition to her recent busy road show promotions, Miss Liu holds her mobile phone in her arms every day.
When I’m not checking the box office, I’m just reading the reviews, and I purse the corners of my mouth slightly from time to time.
I was completely lost in the rainbow farts online praising her great improvement in acting skills.
However.
Probably because Zhou Yutang will soon end his road show promotion early and return to the capital to prepare for "Now You See Me", Miss Liu is a little reluctant to leave, and has been obsessed with her these past few nights.
After another night of cultivating immortality, before going to bed.
With Liu Yifei's perfectly soft and round body in her arms, Zhou Yutang finished replying to work messages and took a tablet to browse film and television information.
The film industry is really busy these days.
"Love Like a Bouquet" has been wildly harvesting the Asian box office recently, and he has made a big splash, and the directors in Hong Kong who have been implicated have been criticized miserably.
A weekly magazine even wrote a special feature about directors from Xiangjiang making bad movies, which made Wen Jun complain repeatedly: "If you want to support Chinese-language movies, don't criticize bad movies. No director wants to make bad movies when they start filming. He worked very hard to make the movie, but his lack of ability may have caused the movie to be bad."
There is indeed nothing wrong with what you say.
There are not many capable directors in Xiangjiang. Some are not adapted to the local environment, and some cannot keep up with the times and have been eliminated by the market.
But Zhou Yutang was still shot. When Wen Jun was interviewed, he bluntly said that celebrities are too expensive: "In the past, you could hire big stars with 7 figures. Now the basic salary quotations for the most popular celebrities have risen to 60 million, it depends on the other party’s schedule!”
Some netizens said that they could just submit Zhou Yutang’s ID card.
Besides him, who else is the most popular celebrity in domestic entertainment nowadays?
People from the mainland and the Hong Kong film and television industry gradually joined the group. The scolding war lasted for several days, but Hong Kong director Chen Kexing stood up and said:
"Remuneration depends on the market, not on the government." It’s up to the actors to decide. Today’s movies often cost over 100 million yuan. For example, hiring Zhou Yutang would be worth it even if it costs 100 million. Now that “Love in a Bouquet” is so popular, he can earn more profits for the employer.”
"Xiao Zhou, when did you reconcile with Chen Kexing?"
Liu Yifei naughtily used her hair to gently scratch Zhou Yutang's cheek.
“What does reconciliation mean?”
With the fragrant breath blowing on his face, Zhou Yutang patted Liu Yifei's plump pussy, with a righteous look on his face: "I have no grievances with you in the past, and we have no grudges recently, okay? Director Chen is still sensible."
"Hmph!"< br>
Liu Yifei rolled her eyes cutely.
I don’t know who it is.
Last year, Chen Kexing's "Martial Arts" took over, and the Hong Kong director lost his face.
Variety shows recorded in advance are broadcast one after another, maintaining the popularity of the movie.
The next road show promotion will be left to Liu Yifei alone.
Zhou Yutang will fly back to the capital early.
Another batch of foreign equipment has arrived, and there are a lot of things to be arranged for "Now You See Me" over there.
Miss Liu can still endure hardships.
Then I have to suffer her again.
Not long after returning to the capital, I received a call from the other side of the ocean.
Now that "The Conjuring" has been released for a month, the box office in North America has reached 152 million US dollars, and the box office growth has gradually slowed down.
Professional movie box office data agencies have also given clear box office placement judgments.
Including global box office, the final box office is expected to be approximately US$350 million.
The cost of 20 million US dollars brought more than fifteen times profit.
In Zou Zhongyan’s words, the whole of Hollywood is crazy.
First there is "The Purge", and then there is "The Conjuring". Having two blockbuster IPs in hand is equivalent to mastering two golden mountains.
Zhou Yutang also received a call from Wen Ziren again: "Zhou, congratulations, your movie is a hit at the box office. There is a lot of news about you in Hollywood."
"Even Hollywood Any news?”
"Of course, you are a big shot now."
Wen Ziren complimented, and then smiled: "However, I have some news to tell you. The sequel to the "Conjuring" series may not be available in a short time. Yes, I have several other movie plans at the moment."
"Is it "Insidious 2"?"
"Yes, there is another big project from Universal. An offer I can’t refuse”
