Chapter 487 Vanity Fair, Evolving into a God
“Zhou, this is my good sister Taylor.”
With big golden waves and big eyes that seem to be able to talk, Taylor· Swift took the initiative to reach out and get to know the handsome guy in front of her.
“Hello.”
“Hello, Miss Taylor.”
Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows and shook Swift's soft little hand politely.
In the beginning, her nickname was "Little Beauty", and then when she was trying to win the Billboard title, she would always encounter all kinds of demons and snipers, and she would always be unlucky enough to end up in runner-up.
Then it is because of her colorful love life, she has been in love and broken up.
Over time, she became Swift among fans of China.
But no matter what, Taylor Swift can definitely be said to be a genius in the American music scene.
Under the age of 18, he released his first album of the same name "Taylor Swift", which became an instant hit and shocked the music industry with sales exceeding 3.9 million copies.
Then it was out of control, sweeping more than ten awards including the American Country Music Television Awards, MTV Music Television Awards, Country Music Association Awards, and American Music Awards.
Many diva-level singers have been killed in a row, and they are so popular that they become purple.
In terms of age, Swift is even one year younger than Zhou Yutang.
When People magazine selected the 100 most beautiful people in the world last year, Swift ranked among the top ten.
certainly.
Compared with her appearance, Zhou Yutang admires Blake Lively more, a bright and majestic type that is more in line with Eastern aesthetics.
Just looking at the way these two girls communicate, it is obvious that they are very good best friends.
After Blake Lively introduced Taylor Swift to Yutang Chow, Swift still took it very seriously.
After all, we had just met, so she was more or less reserved, but she glanced at Zhou Yutang from time to time, like a little girl who had discovered a favorite toy and was extremely interested.
"Zhou, how many days are you going to stay here?"
"There is a project to discuss, and I will probably go back tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
"That's a pity."
After chatting about each other’s lives, and seeing the old man Bob bringing people to look for Zhou Yutang, Blake Lively had the foresight to withdraw, and then showed his trademark bright and charming smile: "If there is any suitable role for your project, you are welcome to call me at any time."
"I will definitely do it if I have the opportunity."
The previous reminiscences are all foreshadowing, but this last sentence is the key point.
In this vanity fair, she has reached the position of one of the four Hollywood actresses. She is not a stupid person who doesn't understand anything.
Blake Lively is very aware of the potential of this young and handsome oriental director in front of him.
Although he is also a hot star in Hollywood, Zhou Yutang, who operates capital, is obviously more qualified. He has many friends and many paths. If he can star in one of his projects, it will naturally be of great benefit.
“Hello, I’m Joaquin Phoenix.”
The actor brought here by Bob was Joaquin Phoenix.
Zhou Yutang smiled and shook hands with him and said: "Joaquin, your performance in "The Master" was wonderful."
Paul Thomas Anderson's "The Master" won the Venice Silver Medal Lion for Best Director, the film's star Joaquin Phoenix also relied on his wonderful performance to share the Best Actor Award with Philip Seymour Hoffman, which is definitely worthy of the title.
“It’s my honor.”
It’s true that people carry people in sedan chairs. Joaquin Phoenix grinned and added a hug enthusiastically: “I I am also a big fan of Mr. Miracle Director and will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future.”
"There will definitely be a chance."
A meaningful smile appeared on Zhou Yutang's lips, leaving Joaquin Phoenix a little confused.
Old guy Bob is really old-hearted.
Zhou Yutang was trying to improve Phoenix's favorability. His eyes were scanning like radar, frequently firing at the busty female supermodels walking around the cocktail party.
Looking back and seeing Zhou Yutang finish chatting with Phoenix, Bob turned around and muttered: "Zhou, you are really more of an old man than me. There are so many beautiful girls on this occasion, you should enjoy it." It’s a rare happy time, those two girls just now were great.”
"Joaquin Phoenix is a very good actor."
Zhou Yutang smiled lightly.
"Well, his acting skills are indeed good, but what Hollywood is most indispensable for is actors with good acting skills."
Bob is also considered a celebrity in Hollywood, and he knows many people. Greeting, his eyes suddenly lit up, he came over and whispered:
"Zhou, Warner's top management is about to change its leadership. I will introduce you to the next boss."
Warner Bros. was founded in 1923 by three Warner brothers, Jack, Sam, and Albert.
Since its development, it has become one of the top six in Hollywood, but its internal struggles are comparable to The Legend of Zhen Huan.
Time Warner President Jeff Bewkes, in order to motivate his three Warner executives - Kevin Tesuhara in charge of digital home entertainment, Jeff Robinov in charge of film and Bruce Rosenbaum, who was in charge of television operations, created a president's office.
As a result, everyone wanted to be the person involved.
He shouted the slogan of becoming bigger and stronger, but in fact he was holding back in every way, just to defeat his opponent and sit in the CEO's office.
When Zhou Yutang communicated with Bob, he often heard the old man complaining and complaining about the internal power struggle within Warner.
According to his reliable information.
The Japanese-American little old man in front of me, Kevin Tesuhara, may be the one who laughs in the palace fight at the end.
The king of palace fighting seems to have some friendship with Bob, and is also extremely friendly to Zhou Yutang. After all, he has the entire Asian market behind him. Talking to people and talking to ghosts is Zhou Yutang's regular skill, and they soon started chatting enthusiastically.
Looking at the tall figure chatting and laughing with Warner executives, Blake Lively stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Swift's eyes: "You're gone, why are you still looking?"
"Oh my god, he is such a super handsome guy! "
Swift's eyes shone, and she pulled Blake Lively's arm and shook it.
Just now, she pretended to be a quiet lady, but now her true self is revealed in front of her best friend, and she is extraordinarily out of control.
“You don’t have to say it.”
Blake Lively looks like you've never seen the world before.
Zhou Yutang is tall and straight, with three-dimensional facial features and deep eyes.
The most offensive thing is his temperament, which is clear and transcendent, but also has a deep nobility. It is definitely a combination of Eastern and Western girls and young women.
"Tell me his contact information."
"Walt?"
Blake Lively looked at her best friend beside her and said speechlessly: "Are you serious?"
"Of course."
Taylor Swift held her best friend's arm and sounded quite excited: "He has a very attractive quality. Just staying with him, I suddenly had inspiration..."
"Zhou, a miracle director from the East, you are so popular."< br>
Bob put his arm around Zhou Yutang's shoulders with a glowing face and said teasingly.
At tonight's cocktail party, Zhou Yutang received many date applications from beautiful girls, including Scarlett, a beauty who would make a celebrity want to drink the bathwater.
But Zhou Yutang still held on.
He is not someone who lets the small head control the big head.
Some of the actresses who approached him tonight had some ulterior motives.
What annoys him is that nicknames in Hollywood are so awkward. When they meet, he will call him "The Miracle Director of the East", which makes him sound powerful and domineering like the Governor of Jiangdong.
"Bob."
Zhou Yutang acted quite calmly and said seriously: "I think they are just interested in money."
This is a country that advertises freedom but is full of discrimination.
Not only did the King of Warner Palace Show his kindness to Zhou Yutang, but also the top executives of several major companies met him.
In this fame fair, everyone uses hypocritical and exaggerated politeness.
Maybe not everyone is attracted to Zhou Yutang.
But everyone is interested in money.
Zhou Yutang's own outstanding record, and the two projects he cooperated with New Line, all of which made huge profits, have proven that he has a unique grasp of the market.
"Now You See Me" swept across Asia and created a box office miracle. Warner took a fancy to the distribution rights of this film and prepared to obtain the North American market to make money.
Zhou Yutang has no objection. Anyway, his share is indispensable. Naturally, the more he earns, the better.
After the social reception was over, Zhou Yutang went back to the hotel directly.
There is a time difference between here and China. It was late at night for him, but it was daytime for Liu Shishi. The two chatted for a while, and then fell asleep while Liu Shishi was filming.
The next day.
With Bob's introduction, Zhou Yutang finally met the French director who was extremely interested in his "Superbody" script.
This script was registered a few years ago, and Luc Besson was not the first person to be interested.
The gray-whiskered man with a kind face looked like a farm uncle. He was talking to the people next to him. When he saw Zhou Yutang, he stood up on his own initiative.
Shaked hands cordially and said with a friendly smile: "Zhou, congratulations, "Now You See Me" is really great."
"Three grams of oil."
Zhou Yutang also complimented very politely: "Jiang Wen asked me to say hello to you on his behalf. In addition, "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" is also my favorite."
It is this classic movie that makes People have recognized the little girl holding a potted plant and the cold killer. Now Natalie has won an Oscar for "Black Swan" and is also Miss Liu's latest idol.
Luc Besson actually has a close relationship with China. At the 53rd Cannes Film Festival in 2000, when he served as a jury judge, he awarded the Jury Prize to director Jiang Wen.
In 2006, he was invited by the Shanghai International Film Festival to serve as a judge for that session.
Before Zhou Yutang came, he asked Jiang Wen for various information about this person.
"The script of "Super Body" evolves from a human to a god. I had a similar idea a long time ago."
"It's just that I have been revising it, and I haven't been able to achieve it. Ideally, I saw your script some time ago and I know what the script is like in my imagination.”
Luc Besson's voice was full of persuasion: "How about we work together?"
"Of course there is no problem."
Zhou Yutang smiled: "I think we can Let’s talk.”
Evolve from human to god.
This is an excellent movie with a female protagonist.
