Chapter 575: The God of Domestic Entertainment, Completely Shocked
This film festival has received a series of upsets.
But the biggest winner is naturally Zhou Zhou Yutang.
For the first time on an international stage like Cannes, he reached the pinnacle and won the Palme d'Or.
For domestic entertainment, tonight he is both the natural choice and the only one.
The official dinner of the awards ceremony is over, and the excitement continues.
Zhou Yutang also held a celebration banquet at the Pierrotier restaurant in Cannes.
Invited Pei Kang, Zhang Yimou, Gong Li, Huang Xiaoming, Qin Lan and others.
There are also the special reporters from Yangma who are currently in the honeymoon period, as well as several media outlets with close relationships.
French seafood feast paired with Taittinger champagne, let’s have a wild and fun time.
"Yu Tang, don't drink too much."
Zeng Li was happy for Zhou Yutang, but when she saw that he didn't refuse anyone who came, she felt a little distressed and came over quietly to give instructions.
Lao Mouzi and Huang Xiaoming are fine.
I just came over with a glass of wine, just like that.
That mountain sculpture is really full of fire, drinking one glass after another, paying homage to Zhou Yutang.
He was truly trained by the system. Drinking red wine was like drinking boiled water, but he didn't even notice it, his face was just glowing.
Everyone can see that Mr. Han is really happy.
La Pei Kang also felt like he was dreaming.
He never expected that in his first year in office, he was originally expected to make achievements and make progress during a smooth transition.
But I didn’t expect Zhou Yutang to lead Fei directly and win the second Palme d’Or.
This will undoubtedly bring Zhou Yutang's reputation to an unprecedented peak in the circle, and it is also Pei Kang's creation.
After all, the achievements were made during his term of office, and merit is indispensable.
In this case, what is the point of making progress while maintaining stability?
The plan has changed, become bigger and stronger, and create greater glory!
""Chi Ling" surprisingly won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival!"
"The Chinese film "Chi Ling" became the big winner at the Cannes Film Festival!"
""Chi Ling" won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, another monument for Chinese-language films!"
Assigned to Reporters from various media outlets in Cannes will naturally not miss such valuable news material.
The results of the awards ceremony have just been released, and the news has already been sent back to China simultaneously.
We had a great time that night. Zhou Yutang was sleeping with Zeng Li in his arms. The staff in China worked overtime. The news soon began to spread wildly on the Internet, instantly becoming the focus of national attention.
"When was the last time a Chinese-language film won the Palme d'Or?"
"In 1993, when I was just born, Brother Chen Kai became a god overnight in Cannes."
"The 46th Cannes Film Festival Festival, Jeanne Moreau announced that the Palme d'Or was awarded to both "The Piano Lesson" and "Farewell My Concubine", which are also double-yolked eggs. What's interesting is that the person who accepted the award with Chen Kaige was Jane Camping, and she also This year’s jury is waiting.”
“When will “Chi Ling” be released in China?”
“Zhou Yutang is awesome. It’s not difficult to win the Oscars in Venice and Berlin. Right? ”
“+1”
“+10086”
The news in Cannes is like a hurricane passing through. At this time, domestic Weibo and some forums are completely boiling.
In addition to being shocked, it is still shocking.
Looking back at Zhou Yutang's outstanding achievements, he can no longer be called a monster.
"Zhou Cao, the boss is simply a god!"
The private chat group of Lu Yang, Wen Muye, Guo Fan and others has also exploded.
Lu Yang forwarded a news link that reviewed Zhou Yutang’s brilliant achievements, followed by a series of admiring expressions.
“Wen Neng is in the running for awards for his literary films, winning the Silver Bear for Best Director in Berlin and the Palme d’Or at Cannes.”
“Wu Neng’s commercial film Killing, directed and starred by the boss himself The cumulative total box office of the movie, the first member of the 5 billion club in China, in one word, awesome”
Everyone was in shock, their expressions frantically painted on the screen, but their hearts were full of pride.
Zhou Yutang is the backbone of Jiangdong Entertainment.
With him here, they are full of expectations for the future.
"Sissi, wake up, don't sleep."
Aunt Liu opened the curtains, let the warm sun shine into the room, and then shook her daughter's side exposed outside the quilt. Cut off the snow-white arm.
Liu Yifei made an unintelligible murmur, turned over, and buried her head in the quilt.
On the contrary, the plump hip line is clearly exposed, and even with the pajamas lifted up, a touch of snow-white skin on the waist is heart-pounding.
She had just returned to the capital from a brand event, and she was really tired.
It is rare to have a rest today, so I must catch up on my sleep, and sleep until I feel tired and tired.
Aunt Liu sat on the edge of the bed and patted her gently: "Did you forget something?"
"Mom, please let me sleep a little longer."
"Zhou Yutang won the prize."
"Huh?"
Liu Yifei jumped up from the bed. The look of being a little confused and shocked made Aunt Liu feel a little funny.
When it comes to Zhou Yutang, it’s like a switch has been pressed.
She was stunned for two seconds before reacting, and asked in a daze: "Mom, what did you say?"
"I said, Xiao Zhou won the Palme d'Or."
"Are you kidding? ?" Liu Yifei was dumbfounded.
"There was news in the middle of the night last night. I thought you were watching. Why didn't he tell you?"
Aunt Liu was talking to her daughter while cleaning up out of habit. He picked up the clothes in Liu Yifei's room and kept mumbling: "I have told you many times that the clothes should be arranged neatly"
"Oops, I fell asleep."
Liu Yifei took a look at her mobile phone, and sure enough, there was a selfie of Zhou Yutang holding the Palme d'Or trophy and certificate after the award ceremony and before being interviewed.
It’s my fault that last night’s award ceremony was too boring, and I couldn’t fast forward during it, so I fell asleep watching it.
I was so excited that I wanted to call Zhou Yutang, but I thought There was a time difference between the two sides, so he was probably still sleeping, so he put down his phone again.
Think about it.
After all, she happily took her phone and sent a WeChat message.
“Ding!”
The WeChat message prompt sounded, and then the phone screen lit up, and Liu Shishi replied quickly.
Looking at the gentle smile on her face, Wang Jianhui next to him unscrewed the lid of the thermos cup and asked with a smile: "Shi Shi, when will Director Zhou return to China?"
After Wang Jianhui collaborated with Zhou Yutang in "Big Shot", he was invited to become a special acting professor at Yamashita Academy.
But before that, he had long been Cao Baoping's confidant.
The bully village chief Xiong Laosan in "Glorious Fury", the desperate drug trafficker Qiu Huogui in "Li Mi's Conjecture", and even the murderer in the yet-to-be-released "Heart of the Burning Sun" are all Contributed an extremely wonderful performance.
Now in "The Tuner", Wang Jianhui also plays a very important role in it, that is, the police chief.
"Just these two days, the movie "Celebrating More Than Years 2" is still waiting for him."
"Director Zhou is so amazing, he even won the Palme d'Or."
Another leading actor, Tan Zhuo, also laughed nearby and said: "Now he is the signature of the Chinese film industry."
Tan Zhuo's acting skills are also well-known in the circle. In this drama, he plays the role of the police chief. Lover|wife.
"Congratulations, Shi Shi."
The crew surrounded Liu Shishi like stars, and before work started, all they talked about was this topic.
There were rumors before that Zhou Yutang wrote this drama specifically for the first sister.
After the film was turned on, he even sent his own gold medal producer Chen Xi to come over several times.
Just looking at Chen Xi's close attitude towards Liu Shishi, the people in the crew understood everything.
Liu Shishi holds a very high position in Zhou Yutang's heart.
Maybe she is the future boss lady of Jiangdong.
With such an additional identity, everyone on the crew took great care of Liu Shishi.
Even director Cao Baoping, who has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, would suppress his temper and talk to Liu Shishi in a good voice when he was not satisfied with something.
Someone suddenly asked: "When will "Chi Ling" be released in China, Shi Shi, do you know?"
Listening to the crew talking about Zhou Yutang's rainbow fart, Liu Shi Shi couldn't help but listen. He praised himself for being happy, with a smile on his gentle face:
“I’m not sure, it seems to be scheduled for the summer.”
“Strike when the iron is hot, Let’s set it for June.”
Faced with Pei Kang's question, Zhou Yutang took over China Film's film schedule, looked at it for a long time, and gave the answer: "The July schedule will be given to "Wolf Warrior.""
""Super Body" It's also June, so the time needs to be staggered." La Pei Kang nodded.
“Thank you, Mr. La.”
Since the two parties reached an agreement, the quota for imported films has become very valuable every year, and even Hollywood giants want to take a bite of the fat.
But the final decision-making power still lies with the head of China Film Group. Since Pei Kang nodded, "Super Body" will be introduced into the country and there will be no problem with the schedule. "We are all our own people, small things."
La Pei Kang nodded and didn't take it to heart. Instead, he asked with interest: "Yu Tang, it's been quite busy these two days. How is the copyright negotiation going?"
As Cannes comes to an end, the copyright trading market has gradually entered its final stage. Zhou Yutang, who was waiting for a price, finally waited for a bumper harvest.
As the winner of the Palme d'Or, the overseas copyright of "Chi Ling" has been robbed.
“Almost, this number.”
Hearing Zhou Yutang's understatement of the numbers, La Peikang, who was very good at nourishing qi, his pupils were shocked. He was stunned for a long time before asking for the details.
The few film producers who still wanted to pick up the leaks were beating their chests and feeling extremely upset.
Had I known that I could win "Chi Ling" and win the Palme d'Or, no matter how much money I spent, it would still be worth it.
After winning the Palme d'Or, the copyright price soared like a rocket.
Including film distribution, audio and video and other copyrights in 12 countries including America, Canada, France, the United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, Greece, the Netherlands, and Belgium, the final transaction price was as high as US$83.8 million!
It has set a new record for Chinese film copyright transactions.
At the current US dollar exchange rate of 6.13, overseas copyrights have been sold for more than 500 million.
This means that the film has completely recovered its production costs before it was released, and even made Zhou Yutang earn at least 3 small goals.
The foreigners have the advantage. Zhou Yutang wants to buy the team and add another amount of start-up capital.
La Pei Kang finally calmed down and slapped his mouth: "You made a lot of money."
"I just make a little money."
Shunfeng Bureau Zhou Yutang's main character is modest and steady: "La Dong is now the one carrying the entire Chinese film industry forward. I still have a lot to learn from La Dong in the future. ”
Good guy, this is still small money! ?
Pei Kang shook his head and laughed, but thinking about Zhou Yutang's own net worth, it seemed that it was really the case.
Hearing Zhou Yutang's words, he felt indescribably comfortable.
Understand and experience Han Sanping's happiness.
If such a capable and sensible young man does not come to power, then who will?
Since Poet Chen became a god in Cannes, his time has passed by in a blink of an eye for twenty-one years.
After so many years, only "Alive" directed by Zhang Yimou and "The Devil Is Coming" directed by Jiang Wen have won the Jury Prize at Cannes, second only to the Palme d'Or.
This time Zhou Yutang won the Palme d'Or, which caused a huge earthquake in the entire domestic entertainment industry.
The film school worked overnight to make a banner and hung it in front of the school, and sent a text message to congratulate him.
As the face of the film school, it can be said that it has earned enough face for the alma mater.
Zhou Yutang posted a photo of himself holding a cup backstage on Weibo. In just 12 hours, the number of forwarded comments has reached nearly 3.8 million.
Liu Yifei, Liu Shishi, Gao Yuanyuan, Fan Binbin, Hu Ge, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Xu Jinglei, Xu Guangtou, Deng Chao and his wife and other first-line celebrities in the industry who are close to him have appeared in Post a comment on Weibo and forward it.
“Only he can do it. That’s really awesome. I’m convinced.”
Feng Xiaogang, who came from Xu Dugu to seek defeat, expressed his conviction in an interview with the media.
This is the hottest topic in domestic entertainment nowadays. It is inevitable that some entertainment reporters will go to interview Brother Chen Kai about his views on this.
“You asked me what I think?”
Brother Chen Kai’s expression was calm and full of nostalgia.
He wanted to say, this subclass is me.
But then I thought about it.
It seems that my performance is not as good as Zhou Yutang's, and what I say is somewhat inappropriate. I will avoid being ridiculed by the media and humiliating myself.
That’s all.
Poetry Chen changed his mind and said: "First of all, congratulations to him. I have talked to Yu Tang a lot before. He is a young man with great ideas and abilities. His achievements are not surprising."
“This is also a major achievement for Chinese-language films. I am looking forward to where he can go in the future.”
After dealing with the entertainment story, Poet Chen tossed and turned that night and found it difficult to fall asleep.
When he walked to the window and stood with his hands behind his hands, he saw the bright moon, and Poet Chen sighed quietly.
If the spring breeze feels pity for the flowers, can it allow me to stay young again?
The contract for the film copyright has been signed. Zhou Yutang took the opportunity to interview the Sixth Princess with several media, leaving Li Shuang to deal with the aftermath and boarded the plane back to China first.
These days, he is the darling of the media.
The most satisfying thing in life is this.
Zhou Yutang finally understood why Brother Chen Kai floated.
When you are promoted to a very high position, there are only voices of praise and reputation around you, and nothing else.
In this case, even if you can control it initially, it will gradually expand.
However.
After Zhou Yutang was suddenly ecstatic, he gradually calmed down.
Before he won the Palme d'Or, there were many people who praised him.
It would have floated into the sky long ago.
The main reason is that he has clear plans and goals for his future.
And he also has his own way of relieving stress and downplaying emotions.
That is to indulge in gentleness and divert attention.
Still taking a private plane back to China, Zeng Li was unwilling to give in even to death, because outside the compartment, there were Ni Ni and the stewardess.
But in the end, he still couldn't defeat Zhou Yutang.
Thousands of miles a day is naturally indescribable thrills and excitement, and a unique and wonderful experience.
It’s done.
Zeng Li was a little embarrassed to see people, so she slept in her clothes.
Zhou Yutang just pretended that nothing happened, went out and looked through the film and television information, and saw some interesting news.
A few days ago, Xiao Lizi was playing with a water gun with a young model on the beach. Something big happened. The young model he hooked up with recently, Katie Cleary, was a married woman.
Poorly, her husband could not bear the cuckold attack and committed suicide with a gun at the shooting range on Sunday.
Opening his phone, Zhou Yutang received messages from all directions, so he simply replied to them. The first was Zhang Manyu’s congratulatory message,
"Sister Manyu, I heard that you went to the Strawberry Music Festival?"
"Thank you, Director Zhou, for paying such attention to me in Cannes."
"You're welcome, You can also go online in Cannes."
Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows and smiled, somewhat teasingly: "You sing very well, but the audience is ignorant."
The same domestic actress who won the title of Cannes. Ceiling Zhang Manyu, after quitting the film industry, recently moved to the music industry.
But the result was not ideal.
She just sang two songs on stage at the music festival, and even God didn’t want to hear her sing again. Suddenly a strong wind blew down the shed at the venue.
This girl was quite stubborn and insisted on continuing to sing on the stage. However, because it was really dangerous, the staff rushed over and stopped her, and the performance was forced to stop.
Many fans joked that This was the voice of being abandoned by God, advising her to return to her lost ways and come back to make movies.
“Hey, I can hear you laughing through the phone.”
Zhang Manyu's phone call came in quickly, and she said a little depressed: "There are quite a lot of out-of-tune sounds. I'm still searching on the Internet to find out how to sing without going out of tune. Ah Tang, you often go to concerts as a guest, and you perform very well. How did you do it? "
"That's it, don't think too much, just go up and sing, just treat it like a KTV."
"."
The other end of the phone was silent. After a few seconds, Zhang Manyu sighed: "For a talented guy, life is easy."
"Sister, believe in yourself, you can do it too."
Seeing that this sister was on the verge of being heartbroken, Zhou Yutang quickly poured her a bowl of chicken soup: "It was the same in acting back then. As long as you work hard, there will be rewards. If it doesn't work, let's come back to acting. It's more fun than singing."
"Do you have a book for me?"
"If there is a chance, we can cooperate."
Zhou Yutang agreed readily.
Thinking of cooperating with Zhou Yutang, Zhang Manyu's heart actually moved a little, and she laughed and said: "I was the one calling you to congratulate you, but I didn't expect you to comfort me instead. Thank you."
"Let's talk about acting later. I want to try singing again."
Actually, Zhang Manyu did not amaze everyone as soon as she debuted.
She acted in more than 20 dramas, and she was also called a vase. Later, she relied on accumulation to open up the two lines of Ren and Du, and she had so many classic roles, becoming the ceiling of Chinese actresses.
After briefly replying to the messages from several beauties, Zhou Yutang listened to Ni Ni’s work report,
“Boss, you are invited to attend the Magnolia Awards next month.”
"Push it."
This year's Magnolia, "In the Name of the People" and "Reply 1988" controlled by Jiang Dong received many nominations, among which Liu Shishi was mentioned twice as the queen of Magnolia .
“There will be a commendation meeting of the Directors Guild in June.”
Ni Ni flipped through her work diary and continued: “In Director Zhang’s movie, you were the starring role, and Lin Liang was in We are scouting locations in the Bay Area and it is expected that all preparatory work including casting will be completed in June.”
“According to Director Zhang’s intention, filming will start in July.”
Lao Mouzi is known as a model worker in the entertainment industry and is incredibly energetic.
After returning to China from Cannes, "The Return" was still in theaters. After the film promotion trip was over, he was about to start the project "Zhou Chu Destroyed Three Evils".
"The sequel to "Now You See Me" is expected to start shooting in August, and it will be seamlessly integrated into the series by then."
Zhou Yutang felt a little dizzy just listening to it.
Due to my schedule in Cannes, I took two weeks off from the crew of "Celebrating More Than Years 2". When I returned, I had to work overtime to finish filming at the end of June.
