Chapter 485 They are too proactive, new inspiration
When he entered the office, Han Sanping, wearing a jacket, was talking on the phone.
Zhou Yutang was not polite to him. He walked straight to the tea cabinet on the side, opened the upper drawer, and started searching.
He is not very fond of coffee, but it is because the beauty in Tsing Yi likes to drink tea, and he also developed this hobby.
Han Sanping often has good tea that cannot be bought outside, most of which are cheaper than Zhou Yutang's.
"Uh-huh, Mr. Hou, let's do this first."
Han Sanping on the other side finished the phone call with a smile. When he saw Zhou Yutang's behavior, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly,
"Don't I have already prepared it for you, and you have plundered all the remaining dry food.”
“Mr. Han understands me.”
Zhou Yutang poured tea for the two of them. , first smell the aroma of tea, and then take a sip, the fragrance will linger on your lips and teeth, it is indeed the best tea.
"In the name of the people, are you almost ready?"
"It will start filming after the new year at the latest."
"It happens to be the Berlin Film Festival, Mr. Han, won't you go?"
< br>"I won't go this time and let Lao Meng lead the team."
Han Sanping crossed his legs and said with a smile: "This time the Berlin jury is sitting in the seat, and he is the king of sunglasses. He is very promising. .”
After the official announcement of Zhang Yimou by the Berlin Film Festival Organizing Committee, it was immediately announced that "The Grandmaster" will be selected as the opening film of this film festival, but it will not participate in the competition of the Berlin International Film Festival.
Although the King of Sunglasses has been sharpening his sword for several years, his influence in the international film industry is extraordinary.
His first work "Carmen" was screened in the forum section of the 41st Berlin International Film Festival in 1991. Subsequently, his "Chongqing Forest" and "Fallen Angel" also Participated in screenings in the same unit.
The Sunglasses King naturally has a relationship with the Imperial Master. They are both from the Celestial Dynasty, so there is room for maneuver here.
“The notebook you gave Lao Mouzi is really good.”
"Director Zhang's photography is still good."
Zhou Yutang chatted with Han Sanping about "Hunting" and was looking forward to this trip to Berlin.
Han Sanping took a sip of tea and nodded in praise: "You handled the matter between Lao Mouzi and Zhang Weiping very well. His daughter got married some time ago, did you go there?"
" Let Li Shuang go for me."
Zhou Yutang also raised the teacup and took a sip.
Even Zhou Yutang made clear arrangements for the daughter of the Imperial Master and his ex-wife.
It’s okay to plug in Han Jia Nu, and there’s no problem in plugging in Zhang Mo. Both of them are assistant directors and producers in "Now You See Me".
Once you are plated with this layer of gold, your journey in the circle will be easier in the future.
Of course, the eldest daughter of Lao Mouzi’s family graduated from New York University majoring in directing, and also worked as an editor, assistant director and part-time translator with a national teacher. She must have no problem with her own abilities.
“Yu Tang.”
Han Sanping was drinking tea when an idea suddenly came to him and he lowered his crossed legs: "Do you want to find a way to push the box office upwards?"
According to the current box office trend, "Shocking" The final target of "The Band of Thieves" is probably around 1.685 billion, and Han Sanping wants to go further.
A movie that can be recognized by the market has many ways to promote box office growth.
For example, if you hold a meeting with your boss and then organize some agencies and units to watch movies in the form of tasks, the movie box office will naturally increase a lot.
But if you do this, it will look too ugly.
"Forget it."
Zhou Yutang smiled and shook his head: "Mr. Han, we must respect the laws of the market. Tianchao Film continues to develop, and the box office of movies will be higher and higher in the future."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
After several years of cooperation, Han Sanping has enough confidence in Zhou Yutang's ability.
That is the confidence brought by outstanding achievements again and again.
Zhou Yutang was looking at China Film's film schedule.
The film schedule for January has been released, with more than 20 new films released, among which "The Grandmaster" and "007: Skyfall" are the strongest.
February is basically dominated by Xingye's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".
"As expected, "Introduction to Architecture" will be placed in March."
""Slaying the Wolf 2" is scheduled for the summer release"
After a brief chat about the film schedule, Han Sanping inevitably talked about Zhou Yutang's new film plan.
"Wait a while longer."
Zhou Yutang has always been accustomed to preparing for rainy days. During this time, the outside world was almost praising him to the sky, which made him calmer.
As for the new movie plan, there are currently several projects to choose from. However, the movie is still in theaters at the moment. He also has to take on the drama promotion work of "Celebrating More Than Years", so he can only spare some time to read the script. It must be settled and considered carefully.
"Yu Tang, "No Man's Land" should be fine."
"It's good to pass, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Han."
"This time, those old guys didn't even give me face."
Han Sanping looked at Zhou Yutang with deep meaning, and suddenly smiled He stood up and said, "It's still your way. The leaders above have spoken."
He felt a little emotional in his heart.
For people like Zhou Yutang, those who are successful in the entertainment industry are not just talented. They are also impeccable in terms of human sophistication. The key is to have the favor of their superiors.
Sometimes, Zhou Yutang's words carry more weight than him.
No one knows better than Mr. Han that if you want to succeed in China, it is important to have abilities, but it is even more important to have connections.
Many times, just one word from a person in a key position can outweigh countless efforts.
“No matter what, it’s good if you can get by.”
Zhou Yutang couldn’t help but sigh when he saw the shadow in the middle.
Since Ning Hao started working on "No Man's Land", he has been kicked back by reviewers countless times.
After much back and forth, after hearing the news, this tough guy who loves hanging thick gold chains burst into tears on the spot.
Even his wife Xing Aina couldn't help but wipe her tears.
Going to Ning Hao’s family’s villa in the suburbs of Beijing for a small gathering, Ning Hao who came out immediately gave him a tight bear hug.
I thought that the governor would hug countless girls, but this was the first time I hugged such a grown man. He patted Ning Hao on the back and said, “It’s not too late for good food, as long as it can be served.”
< br>
"It's been more than three years."
Ning Hao finally calmed down and sighed: "I thought this movie would never be released."
The movie finally passed The trial was also a happy event. Ning Hao entertained friends at home. All the people who came were members of the "No Man's Land" crew. Basically, everyone who could come over came over.
Xing Aina cooked herself and made a table of sumptuous meals.
“Don’t be so pessimistic, I’m quite happy.”
Huang Bo, with his usual high emotional intelligence, raised his glass and said: "Yu Tang's movies are all aiming for a box office of 1.6 billion, which is even more worthy of joy. Everyone will get better and better in the future."
"Yu Tang , I really want to thank you this time."
Ning Hao said with gratitude.
Zhou Yutang did this without telling him. He was only notified by General Manager Guang, and Han Sanping revealed that Zhou Yutang asked a leader above to help him speak.
"Brother Bo is right, we have to look forward."
Zhou Yutang consoled him.
"Don't just chat, eat the food. Try what I cook to see if it suits your taste."
Xing Aina and the aunt invited by her family arranged the food and drinks together, and did not forget to greet the guests.
After the five flavors of food and three rounds of wine, Ning Hao said with emotion: "It is really difficult to make this movie."
"It is indeed not easy."
Huang Bo also grinned and said: "Do you remember how you asked Baldy Xu to lose weight?" "Why don't you remember?"
Ning Hao slapped his thigh and said with a smile: "Ask him to lose weight, that guy Without saying a word, I lost weight so quickly by not eating staple food every day and only taking vitamins and sugars. I remember I lost about 15 pounds in a month.”
“More than that.” >
Yue Xiaojun, who looked a little melancholy, said: "At least 25 pounds. That guy went from having a bun face to an oval face due to starvation. I still have photos here."
As he spoke, he pulled out photos from his phone.
Zhou Yutang leaned over and took a look. When Xu Guangtou lost weight, he had beautiful features and looked a bit like Xie Tingfeng, the young master of Xiangjiang.
Movies in those days were really just movies.
Losing weight is just losing weight, not burning hot.
The director only wants to film the scene well, and the actors only want to better fit the role. Everyone’s purpose is relatively pure.
"What has Baldy Xu been busy with recently?"
"He is now a big director with a box office of 1 billion, and many bosses in the circle come to him to discuss projects."
"Yu Tang is even more incredible now, San A movie with a box office of over 1 billion, the only one in China, I’d like to toast you.”
Huang Bo came over again with a glass of wine: “If you have any suitable roles in the future, please bring them to me. It’s cheap and easy to use, absolutely. Cooperate.”
The outside world says that Huang Bo has high emotional intelligence, and his reputation is not in vain.
Getting along with him always makes people feel comfortable. Whenever there is a gathering of friends like this, there will never be a moment of silence.
"How can you use it?"
Yu Nan was very tough and started to make noises: "I asked you to kill pigs. If you become more murderous, you can run away directly."
< br>“The smell of the pig farm is really unbearable.”
Huang Bo shook his head and smiled bitterly: “Fortunately, the movie passed the censorship, it was not easy.”
"It's not in vain that we ate so much sand in the Gobi."
Yu Nan couldn't help complaining: "Director Zhou, you may not know that there is not even a toilet in that place, which is too unfriendly to lesbians. You're not friendly anymore, you have to hold an umbrella when you go to the toilet!"
"It's not easy for Yu Nan."
Ning Hao sighed: "It's a lot of sacrifice for this drama."
“Since you are eating this bowl of rice, there is nothing to say.”
Yu Nan shrugged his shoulders, but he was very open-minded.
Ning Hao has talked to Zhou Yutang several times about this movie, and he has also seen the finished film.
Yu Nan played the role of a dancer who was trafficked to the desert in this drama. It was only through listening to their chat that I found out that in order to better perform this role, Yu Nan actually went to a hair salon to experience life. , eating, playing cards, and doing manicures with the girls from the hair salon. After the sisters got along for more than half a month, they fully integrated into it and performed the flavor.
“I just remember that when I ate a box lunch, my mouth was full of sand.”
Lei Datou was also very good at creating atmosphere. He shook his big head and said, “I’m really scared. In the future, I never dare to film there again.”
Huang Bo joked: "Then if Director Zhou's next film is going to be filmed in the Gobi, will you go?"
"Then you must go."
Lei Datou is very unscrupulous in filming. Holding his chest, he grinned and said: "Director Zhou said, come through water and go through fire, there will be no complaints."
He has a bit of funny talent in him, and he makes everyone laugh. , Zhou Yutang couldn't help but smile, turned around and asked Ning Hao:
"When will the movie be released?"
"Let's set it in February."
"Are you sure? There will be Brother Bo's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" in February."
Zhou Yutang was slightly surprised, but Ning Hao shook his head: "The nights are long and the dreams are many. Now I just want to release it as soon as possible. There is still more than a month of promotion period, which is almost enough."
Lei Datou and Huang Bo were singing, while Zhou Yutang chatted with Ning Hao and Yue Xiaojun Writing a new script.
Ning Hao was recently working on an alien script. Zhou Yutang noticed that Ning Hao’s screenwriter Yue Xiaojun seemed to be in a low mood. He was just drinking alone and asked in a low voice: "What do you think of Xiaojun?" Not feeling happy?”
This guy is also a talented player who became a monk on the way. Before entering the industry, he set up a stall in the front door of Beijing, sold sweaters, and resold office equipment in Zhongguancun.
Later, I studied in Chinese opera and met Ning Hao. The two aspiring young people hit it off immediately. Because the funds were tight when filming The Stone, Yue Xiaojun personally played the role of Xiaojun, Brother Dao’s younger brother and fellow actor, and said to his sister-in-law He said: "How could you do such a thing? Are you worthy of big brother and worthy of me?"
This informative and saucy remark has become a popular meme even now. .
Later, he also participated in the screenwriting work of "Crazy Racing" and was a close friend of director Ning Hao.
“Just divorced.”
Ning Hao lowered his voice and replied, talking to Zhou Yutang and not forgetting to take care of his brother.
"There is no grass anywhere in the world, just be open-minded."
Huang Bo was teasing again: "You have to ask Yu Tang about women, he has always been very good at it."
Facing Yue Xiaojun's knowledge-hungry gaze, Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed: "Brother Bo, you are not bad either. You were photographed returning to the apartment to spend the night with a beautiful woman a few days ago."
"I was discussing acting skills, a very pure relationship."
Huang Bo coughed lightly: "We are all friends, Yu Tang, just give Xiaojun some advice."
"Director Zhou."
Yue Xiaojun really asked with a look of longing. Question: "How do you get women?"
We are all friends in the same circle, so of course we know that there are some scandals, but they are not rumors.
Imagine that I can't even get a woman, but Zhou Yutang is surrounded by beauties. Even his secretary Ni Ni, who came with him to the party today, looks like she's having an affair with him.
Several people at the scene had their ears pricked up like antennas, and their curiosity was overwhelming.
"Many times, they take the initiative."
"."
Yue Xiaojun opened his mouth, his expression twitched, and he choked.
The people on the side were also dejected.
Zhou Yutang is so handsome that he is notoriously powerful and wealthy. It is normal for women to cheat on him. This question is too difficult and there is no way he can learn it.
"Don't be discouraged, Brother Jun. The best way to forget your last relationship is to start the next relationship."
The atmosphere has reached this point, and Zhou Yutang made a casual joke: "When you have the opportunity, go out for a walk and relax. Leave this environment for a short time and see the beautiful scenery of the motherland. Don't give up a forest for a tree. There are many beautiful girls in China."
"This is what I said. Well done!"
Director Ning Hao praised the case: "Marriage is the tomb of love, Xiaojun, you should learn from Yu Tang, why should a man have no wife?"
"What tomb?"
Xing Aina came up with a cut fruit plate and glanced at Ning Hao lightly.
“Uh, wife.”
Ning Hao changed his face quickly and said, “I’m just kidding, Xiaojun said he envied me for having a good wife.”
Yue Xiaojun: “- _-||”
He wanted to say, "Sister-in-law, I really didn't say that."
"De Xing, Xiaojun, please be more open-minded."
Xing Aina obviously knew about this, put down the fruit plate, and turned around to chat with Yu Nan and Ni Ni. .
Today was a gathering between men, and she saved enough face for Ning Hao.
“Let’s do this.”
Ning Hao said: "Xiaojun, after the New Year, I will put down my work and drive out for a walk with you. Just like Yu Tang said, look at the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. There is no grass anywhere in the world. Maybe it can help you find love.”
“Will that work?”
“It’s definitely possible. I just haven’t felt comfortable writing the script recently. Maybe I’ll have some inspiration on the way. ”
ps: I’m so dizzy, it’s only 4,000 words today
