Chapter 453: Once she becomes famous, she will be known all over the world, give her dignity
If we talk about the Internet slang that has become popular recently, it is probably the special investigative program "Voices from the Grassroots People" where a CCTV reporter visited and questioned a migrant worker The uncle's words: "Are you happy?"
The uncle replied blankly and calmly: "My surname is Zeng."
The reply instantly became famous on the Internet.
When Zhou Yiwei saw this sentence, he felt it was both funny and a little sad.
Then he felt sorry for himself.
He is also from the bottom of the entertainment industry.
I really miss the days when I spent a few dollars to buy sesame seed cakes with Zhang Songwen.
I have also dreamed that one day I could be like my good friend Zhang Songwen and become famous all over the country overnight.
It’s just that nine out of ten things in life are unsatisfactory.
He still submitted his resume silently, because he had the experience of playing a supporting role in "Insidious", so he didn't have to worry about not having any acting roles in these years.
However, limited by his personal image and temperament, Zhou Yiwei plays conscientious supporting roles in various production crews most of the time.
Today's brave generals tearing apart Japs with their own hands will tomorrow woo young losers.
Actors who are not popular are actually not much different from ordinary people.
If you have a job, act, but if you don’t have a job, live a good life. He also works part-time as a teaching assistant at Nortel.
But there is an advantage to not being famous, that is, if you don’t wear a mask, no one will recognize you when you go to the vegetable market to buy food.
And all this.
A change occurred after the National Day this year.
“Jiaqian layman, is that you?”
“Huh?”
"Ding Xiu in Xiuchundao, that's what people call you on the Internet."
"."
For the first time, Zhou Yiwei felt that he also had fans. It was when he was in the movie During the road show, when I was buying cigarettes at a convenience store, I was recognized by a customer in that store.
It was just the question he asked that made Zhou Yiwei a little embarrassed.
The boy said in a very excited tone: "You did a great job, but I have a question for you. Does Ding Xiu have a crush on his junior brother, the girl from the hospital?"
< br>
"."
Zhou Yiwei twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, and explained patiently: "Actually, it is set in the script that Ding Xiu killed the old Chinese medicine doctor at the medical center for a reason, because the old Chinese medicine doctor at the medical center had a reason. He has been playing tricks on his junior brother’s medicine, so his tuberculosis has never been cured.”
After all, a movie has limited space and cannot show all the plot details.
"I understand, but that girl is really smooth."
The male fan sounded regretful: "I think her name is Zhang Tianai, she is really beautiful."
"."
Zhou Yiwei didn't know what to say, but felt that it was rare to meet his fans, so he handed the cigarette to him: "Do you smoke?"
"Thank you Brother Run, I don't Smoke."
"Strictly speaking, Ding Xiu is really not a good person."
"What I want is a sense of both good and evil. You acted really well, especially the last one. The Tatar cavalry was so enjoyable to watch.”
The male fan said shyly: "I think you are super handsome, just a little less handsome than Zhou Yutang."
"Thank you."
Zhou Yiwei shook his head and laughed: "Although they both have the surname Zhou , I'm far behind Director Zhou."
"Can I take a photo with you?"
"Of course"
"You will definitely be popular."
"Some people will know your name soon."
Zhou Yiwei remembers clearly what Zhou Yutang said to him at the movie premiere This sentence.
In fact, after Zhou Yutang said these words, as the movie box office surged and word-of-mouth continued to ferment, he soon experienced firsthand what it felt like to become famous overnight.
“Director Lu Yang revealed that Xiuchundao’s martial arts ceiling is Ding Xiu!”
"Those are my beloved relatives and friends, brothers and sisters. I have to pay more."
"This girl is very smooth."
For the first time in my life, it was a hot search on Weibo. During the movie's release, The number of fans has soared to tens of thousands, and netizens have given him the nickname "Jiaqian Jushi".
I just received a call from my agent, saying that I have been approached by several endorsements and commercial actors, as well as invitations from several variety shows.
The price is more than ten times the original price.
soon.
In real life, calls and messages from relatives and friends flooded in.
Zhang Songwen was the first to call: "Congratulations, Yiwei."
These are good brothers who share the same sorrow. Zhou Yiwei is sincerely grateful: "Thank you, Song Wen. "
If it weren't for Zhang Songwen's help, he would not have the opportunity to stand in front of Zhou Yutang, and naturally he would not be as good as Jiaqian Jushi.
Zhang Songwen smiled and said: "I just mentioned it casually at the time. It was Yu Tang who took a fancy to you and it was you who played well."
"Are you still busy over there?"
"I'm busy. I'm still here in Xiamen. I shot the night scene last night until after 2 o'clock. I almost fell asleep after eating in the morning. When the filming here is completed, I have to join the team again. Are you still on the road show?"
"In Chengdu with Director Lu Yang."
"Come on, it will get better."
"Yeah."
Zhang Songwen is such a warm friend. Zhou Yiwei hung up the phone silently, and more calls came in one after another.
They are all directors, producers and some colleagues who were shamelessly added to the crew before.
Some of them, who used to have a condescending attitude, now came to him and became familiar with him, as if they were old friends who had been dating for decades.
Some friends also call him brother Xiu, and some directly call him a layman with more money as a joke.
Zhou Yiwei had never realized that he had so many good friends around him.
Compared with Zhou Yiwei's role as a sidekick for several years, no one asked him about it, but once he adds money, the world knows it.
Liu Shishi is on a very steady path, and she is already the most popular and popular actress in the industry.
Fans all know that Yi Jie has filmed many costume dramas and also has many dance scenes.
For example, Xin Shiniang in the original "Liao Zhai Qi Women", such as Ta Ba Yu'er in "Xuanyuan Sword", and even Ruoxi in "Step by Step Jingxin".
With more than ten years of dancing skills, every dance move is beautiful.
But in "Xiu Chun Dao", Liu Shishi dances for Zhou Yutang in the snow, which is more artistic than all the previous dances.
"Liu Shishi is so beautiful and her acting skills have improved a lot. Zhou Yutang really knows how to train actresses."
"There is only one word for perfect match, and I will say it once."
"Liu Shishi's temperament is really amazing. I really love her so much that I have become a fan."
"I got goosebumps all over when I saw that part in the cinema."
Ding Xiu in this movie made Zhou Yiwei immediately turn over and became popular, and Liu Shishi also gained a lot after being modified and added by Zhou Yutang Good reviews.
Especially the moment when she died in Zhou Yutang's arms, the moment when the two looked at each other, even the eye scene, which was admittedly inadequate, seemed extremely spiritual.
There seems to be endless affection and endless sadness, which has broken the hearts of countless viewers without a trace.
Liu Shishi dancing in the snow.
Like a beautiful goddess with a cool and broken atmosphere.
“I’m very happy that the audience likes this movie. I didn’t expect it to be so strong at the box office.”
When Director Lu Yang was interviewed at the road show, he was happy but still remained humble.
Logically speaking, it is difficult not to lose yourself in the flowers and applause when you can achieve such results, but thinking about Zhou Yutang, a monster, with two billion-dollar box office movies suppressing everything, Lu Yang's slightly impetuous heart calmed down Come down.
The reporter smiled and asked: "Director Lu, I believe everyone is curious, how was Shi Shixue's scene filmed?"
"Director Zhou gave me a lot of advice on that scene."
Lu Yang said with a smile: "He is very particular about details. During the filming of the scene in the snow, he had to dance dozens of times and spent several times. Days of work were spent just for one shot, but judging from the results, Director Zhou’s strict requirements have undoubtedly greatly improved the quality of the entire movie.”
“No one can beat Dancing in the Snow. Liu Shishi.”
The female reporter was convinced.
“I followed Director Zhou and learned a lot. I would like to thank Director Zhou for giving me this opportunity. The film’s original budget was 40 million, but it went over budget during filming. It was increased to 50 million. Director Zhou Money is great, and without him there would be no movie.”
Lu Yang made no secret of his admiration for Zhou Yutang.
“Is there going to be a sequel to Xiuchundao?”
“Of course, I just talked to Director Zhou last night and I’m sure there will be a sequel to Xiuchundao 2.”
"."
Last month, Wen Muye had just fought against four imported blockbusters. "Rescue Mr. My" had a final box office of 278 million, only slightly behind director Nolan's "Batman 3" and "The Amazing Spider-Man" "The Hero" has blocked the upward path of "Prometheus" and "The Expendables 2".
Lu Yang swept through the National Day event with a knife, and his performance was equally impressive, and he became famous from this battle.
The National Day holiday is over, migrant workers are beginning to return to their jobs, and the number of moviegoers is inevitably declining.
"Ten days after its release, ""Xiu Chun Dao"" has a box office revenue of 398 million, which has broken the box office record of martial arts movies set by ""Sword Rain"!"
""Tai Chi 1" total box office revenue 78.43 million, Feng Shaofeng and Yang Ying got drunk at the bar, and the box office and reputation were both disappointed! "
"The daily box office of "Dangerous Liaisons" dropped to 1.35 million. Zhang Ziyi's high salary may become a burden, and she refused to be interviewed by the media in a black face. ”
""Second Exposure" became a dark horse during the National Day holiday. It grossed 80 million at the box office in nine days of release, surpassing the previous box office record of "Guanyin Mountain" directed by Li Yu!"
Movie information during the National Day holiday is basically "Xiu Chun Knife" is so popular that the internet is full of interviews with the crew.
"Yu Tang, when will "Xiu Chun Knife 2" be produced?"
Han Sanping came to Jiangdong Entertainment to review the post-production progress of "Now You See Me", and waited for him to sit and drink tea in the office At that time, Zhou Yutang received calls from Wanda Ye Ning and Guangguang Wang Changtian. This was their biggest concern at the moment.
“The script is still being worked on, let’s wait until next year.”
Zhou Yutang exchanged a few casual greetings, raised his teacup, and took a sip.
Although the National Day holiday is over, Maoyan predicts that the final box office of Xiuchundao will be more than 550 million, which can be regarded as the most profitable top project in the industry.
Just like Hollywood, sequel plans are started when a movie project is approved. As long as it can make money, it will be arranged immediately.
Huayi is very knowledgeable, but the quality of the project is not very good. One "If You Are the One" can be filmed for more than ten years, and it captures the sunset love between Ge You and Shu Qi.
It is unrealistic to be able to live alone in the entertainment industry.
For the project "Embroidered Spring Knife", Jiangdong Entertainment only took 40% of the share, while China Film, Shanghai Film, Enlight, and Wanda all had shares in the rest.
“There is a lot to be done for the Golden Horse Awards next month.”
“It’s mainly because of Mr. Han’s good guidance.”
“Haha, you kid.”
Han Sanping pointed his finger, but he was in a very happy mood. Seeing that there was not much tea in his cup, he poured another cup for Zhou Yutang with a kind smile.
Pour the tea only 70% full, leaving 30% is a favor.
For someone like him, it is not easy to achieve results at a young age, but it is even more rare to achieve results without being proud of yourself. Sometimes when chatting with Zhou Yutang, Han Sanping felt like he was dealing with a veteran of his own generation.
Who wouldn’t like to get along with such a good-looking, well-spoken and sensible junior?
The second half of the year in the entertainment industry is the busy awards season.
Following Hundred Flowers, the 49th Golden Horse Awards announced the shortlist in early October and presented the awards in November.
Zhou Yutang's two films, "Search" and "Bouquet of Love", received a total of twelve nominations, leading all opponents.
In comparison, Lou Huohua's "Mystery in the Floating City" was slightly less impressive with six nominations, and "Hunter Chang", "Killing Life" and "The Killing" were even more bleak.
Zhou Yutang was once again nominated for the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, and was also nominated for Best Director.
The entire entertainment industry was shocked,
"First pick the Hundred Flowers Award, and then the Golden Horse. The only hero in the world is I, the Governor of Jiangdong."
"It has to be Zhou Yutang, just one word, awesome."
"See inside Those guys are fighting for the top spot every day and I just want to laugh. Look at Zhou Yutang. "Oh my god, Liu Yifei can be nominated for the Golden Horse Best Actress."
"Upstairs, Liu Shishi won the Golden Horse Best Actress nomination when she debuted."
"My mother asked me why I knelt down to watch the news."
Everyone in the industry was already envious of Ma. Hundred Flowers showed off its splendor, but it turned out to be just an appetizer. Xiuchundao's massacre in the movie market was also a prelude.
The Golden Horse Award, one of the three gold medals, is considered a very valuable award in China.
However, Zhou Yutang was relatively calm about this.
He is not a fool. The longer he has been in this circle, the more he understands the essence of award ceremonies.
Even the Oscars are the same. Good film quality is one thing, but public relations is also important.
“It seems that I have to go to the United States to find an opportunity.”
Zhou Yutang muttered as he replied to Zou Zhongyan’s email.
Basically, I don’t have high hopes for “Search” to win an Oscar, but I have a project to work with there, so I might as well try it out first.
Guo Shi’s recent post-production work has to be temporarily put on hold. As a prominent figure in Chinese films, he was invited to attend the opening ceremony of Asan’s important Mumbai Film Festival.
The Asan Film Association awarded Lao Mouzi the Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of his contribution in leading Asian films to the world.
As a leader of the younger generation of Chinese films, Zhou Yutang was also invited, but declined.
When he was telling the old man about the experience of the National Master, he still made a joke: "Director Zhang, have you been there?"
"I met Ah San abroad before. Director, this is my first time.”
“Asan’s food is clean and hygienic, you are lucky”
"."
"Hi, dear Zhou, I'm very happy to see your handsome face again."
After connecting to the video, what appeared in front of Zhou Yutang's eyes was old man Bob. A big face with a thick red neck.
"Bob, you look at least ten years younger."
"The hot chick said the same thing last night. I have regained the passion of my youth. ”
Bob opened his arms and laughed loudly: "Your share has been paid. It is a big sum."
"I can rest assured that you will do the work."
The corner of Zhou Yutang's mouth The arc is soft.
"Of course, you can trust me like Mr. Zou."
Bob, the old man, plays the emotional card and wants to get closer to each other.
The North American box office of "The Purge" exceeded 100 million, and the final global box office of "The Conjuring" reached 352 million.
These two consecutive films, with their small box-office miracles, allowed Zhou Yutang to earn a lot of money and at the same time, he also truly became famous in Hollywood.
At the same time, it also gave Bob, the old man, a real taste of the sweetness.
The current mainstream approach in Hollywood is that box office sharing is only part of the profit.
The remaining profit points are some back-end income, such as DVD sales income, pay TV income, movie peripheral income, etc.
Zhou Yutang has created huge benefits that even the Big Six in Hollywood are jealous of, making this bad old man pay more attention to Zhou Yutang than his son.
I sent congratulations when "Bouquet" created the myth of romance movies. Now that "Xiu Chun Knife" is a box office hit, I also sent a rainbow fart: "Hey, Zhou, you are really the most beautiful person I have ever seen." An amazing talent. "Xiu Chun Knife" is a wonderful movie. I think you are the next Ang Lee. Of course you are much richer than him. When your company in China goes public, it will be the beginning of this century. Oriental entertainment tycoon."
Listening to him saying the three words Xiuchundao in Chinese with a weird accent, it felt inconsistent no matter how I heard it.
Zhou Yutang did not lose himself in the compliments, and said with some humor: "Bob, let's talk business."
"Okay, okay, okay."
Bob grinned: "Two good news, "Human Purge 2" and "Annabelle" have been approved successively."
"The former is still handed over to James, and "Annabelle" is to the old guy John Do it."
"In addition, Warner has let go of the clown rights you want. When are you going to do it?"
"Wait a little longer, the projects in my hands are a bit slow now. "Well, you don't know, those idiots from Warner only know how to fight among themselves and play bitch. They didn't take this matter to heart at all. Instead, they laughed at me for being stupid and said. There is no way this project will succeed..."
Old people who have entered menopause like to chatter endlessly when they want to complain.
Watching Bob spit out fragrance, Zhou Yutang chuckled and said: "Sooner or later, we will let them understand who is the clown."
"Yes, I completely I believe you have the ability.”
The National Day holiday is over, and various breakups have begun in the entertainment industry.
First, the Hong Kong model Le Jier exposed her boat photos, and the king Li Ming sadly left the sad place of Hong Kong and returned to the capital to heal his wounds. Then he officially announced their breakup, causing an uproar.
When Li Tianwang was young, he was very popular and fascinated Japanese and Korean goddesses. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was popular all over Asia.
Unfortunately, we have to end up being hurt by love in the end.
The person who is even worse than King Li is Master Xing.
After she broke up with Yu Wenfeng, whom she had been dating for thirteen years, his girlfriend took him to court to recover nearly 100 million yuan in debt.
That woman is very capable. When the two were together, she also served as Master Xing's personal financial advisor, using her personal connections to help Master Xing manage his assets.
When they were deeply in love, Master Xing verbally agreed to pay her 10% of the profit after tax for each profitable investment as a commission.
How sweet and loving we were at the beginning, but how ugly it was when we were separated.
Men, you still have to rely on yourself.
Zhou Yutang decided to take the two seniors as a lesson, secretly reflect on himself, and then went to China Film and Television: "Mr. Han, I heard that Master Xing sold his equity in "Journey to the West"?"
“Your message is really good, that’s what happened.”
Han Sanping chuckled and said, "Don't worry about this plate. It has been taken over by Tianchao Culture Communication Group."
"I just asked casually."
Zhou Yutang understood instantly.
A lot of people are staring at this piece of fat.
Office.
Ni Ni, who was wearing a professional skirt, came over with a pile of documents and asked: "Mr. Zhou, Director Ha Wen sent me an invitation letter for this year's Spring Festival Gala."
"Push it for me."
Zhou Yutang rubbed his forehead and asked casually: "Who are we here this year?"
"Li Yao, Zhang Ruojun, Happy Mahua and Liu Shishi, and a few from The Voice "Deng Ziqi, Jin Zhiwen, Jike Junyi."
Glancing at the directory compiled by Ni Ni, Zhou Yutang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly sat up from lying in the boss's chair and asked: "This Qu Wuting, has also received an invitation?"
< br>"Yes."
Ni Ni leaned over and brought a nice scent: "Qu Wuting is very popular this year, don't you know, Mr. Zhou?"
"I didn't pay much attention."
Zhou Yutang frowned.
The Voice has been operating for several years, and once it gets on the right track, he doesn't need to watch over it.
"The song I sang was the song "In My Singing" that you wrote for Deng Ziqi, and I said that I am your fan."
The Voice has been held for several years, because the program has always been It focuses on word-of-mouth, so although the ratings have dropped a bit, it is still the undisputed number one music talent show variety show.
Whenever a singer appears on the stage of The Voice, almost everyone would label themselves as Jiangdong Navy.
There is a joke on the Internet that Zhou Yutang is the "principal" of the Whampoa Military Academy of Music, and all the singers who debuted on The Voice are his disciples.
Some of them are real fans, and some are just pretending.
After all, Zhou Yutang is the most popular celebrity in domestic entertainment. Just mentioning him will attract traffic, and he is also the big boss behind the scenes. Being his fan may give him extra points with his mentor.
Ni Ni felt that Zhou Yutang's expression was a little strange, and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Zhou, what's wrong?"
"It's okay."
Zhou Yutang looked solemn and shook his head slightly. Then he picked up his cell phone and called Tian Ming.
"Brother Ming, this year The Voice has a twist. How is your family background?"
"Why, have you found me?"
Tian Ming said with a smile: "At home It has something to do with it. When she was participating in the show, she sent someone to tell her that she would buy her daughter 20 million to win the championship. The old woman who came here said she was in a big business, so I'll give you my back. In short, she sounded very arrogant. She opened her mouth and said that money is not an issue. What she wants is to be dignified and support her daughter. If you can write to her daughter. Song, that can add money.”
"How much more?"
"If you add 30 million, are you excited?"
Tian Ming also smiled: "Yu Tang, what kind of monsters and monsters want to eat your traffic? ”
He has been doing variety shows for so many years and has encountered this kind of thing.
Those who have money and connections want to take shortcuts.
Twenty million is a very big number, but as long as you can win the title of The Voice, catch up with the Governor of Jiangdong, and become famous in the entertainment industry, you may not be able to recover the cost.
Tian Ming has also seen the world.
He and Zhou Yutang made it clear that they would follow the royal path and make The Voice a national variety show. The explosive ratings and overseas copyrights of this variety show also brought unimaginable benefits to Mingjie Company. Naturally, he doesn't like the money.
So, Qu was eliminated in the middle of the show, and the one who defeated her was this year's champion Yao Beina.
“Tsk, tsk, you are rich and powerful.”
"Yu Tang, your tone sounds like something is wrong?"
Listening to Zhou Yutang's tone, Tian Ming gradually realized that something was not right.
“No problem.”
The corner of Zhou Yutang’s lips curled up into a sneer: “It’s not about being dignified when riding a horse, so give her dignity.”
