According to Teacher Yu Chenghui's arrangement, Zhou Yutang wore sandbags on his feet and waist.

At first, my walking steps were a little heavy, but I quickly got used to it, and in the old words, this physical condition is too good, and it is a pity not to practice martial arts.

After getting used to this kind of intensity, Zhou Yutang also specially invited a professional fitness coach to set up recipes and additional training items for him.

Why?

In this play, he has a very important shot showing his abdominal muscles.

The movie is expected to start filming around October, so Zhou Yutang will train his abdominal muscles to perfection during this time.

Body management is also a compulsory course for being a star.

Zhou Yutang's professionalism is beyond doubt.

specially shared his training plan and video with Liu Tianxian, but this girl was shocked.

She originally thought that she had worked hard enough, but she really didn't expect Zhou Yutang to be more ruthless than her.

In addition to taking a bath, he has been wearing a set of sandbags weighing dozens of pounds, so he trains every day, and also finds time to participate in the rehearsals at the Olympic Games.

Liu Tianxian was completely convinced.

July.

Han Sanping was in a bad mood.

Zhou Yutang looked at Mr. Han sitting on the sofa and sighed several times.

And it's no wonder.

"Red Cliff Up" was released on the 10th of this month, and the box office exceeded 110 million after 7 days of release.

This box office trend is even worse than "Assembly Number", and it poured cold water on Mr. Han.

How much investment is "The Assembly"?

It took hundreds of millions to shoot "Red Cliff", and the box office of the two films combined was less than 10 billion, which was a failure.

According to this trend, the full number of films has not been saved, and the box office has finally exceeded 220 million after nearly a month of release, and then the box office growth rate has been declining by a dive, although it is still hanging in theaters, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the market potential is almost exhausted.

The piracy of the film has long spread all over the Internet, and the Olympic event that the whole country is concerned about is coming, who cares about this outrageous film with a low reputation?

Mr. Han looked at the ultra-low scores given by the two major professional film review websites, Time.com and Douban, and his face was very dark.

He took a sip of the water from the thermos, shook his head and sighed.

China Film Group is the main producer, and Han always puts a heavy bet on Wu Yusen.

However, Han Sanye, who has never missed a move in the film industry, has also taken a look.

Mr. Han threw the box office statistics report handed over by the following department on the table, and frowned: "Yu Tang, what do you think is the problem?" Why are so many viewers not accepting? ”

"Mr. Han, I will talk about my personal understanding from the standpoint of the audience."

Zhou Yutang took a sip of water: "The most serious problem is probably the cultural bruise, unable to resonate, I don't mean Director Wu's cultural problem, but the Three Kingdoms he understands, or the set of Hong Kong films, the Three Kingdoms that our audience watchs, what we want to see is the heroes rising together, Jin Ge Iron Horse, swallowing thousands of miles, and the script is very problematic."

Han Sanping rubbed the corners of his forehead: "There is a big problem with the script, and the screenwriter Wu Yusen wanted to find at the beginning was Lu Wei." ”

"It's not a book written by Reed, is it?"

Zhou Yutang said curiously.

Lu Wei is really a great god, and the "Farewell My Concubine" he wrote allowed Chen Shiren to ascend to the altar in one step.

"It didn't matter, at that time, Lu Wei asked Wu Yusen what the core theme of the Red Cliff Battle wanted to express, Wu Yusen said peace, Lu Wei asked again, which character do you want to use as the main core, Wu Yusen said Xiao Qiao"

“.”

Zhou Yutang's expression twitched.

There is everything in the three countries, but there is no peace.

He remembered the classic scene he saw in the cinema with Liu Shishi: Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao, played by Lin Chilin, wanted to name the horse, Zhou Yu said: "It was born in the land of Jingchu, and it must be reflected in the name", Sister Zhilin thought for a while and said: "It's called Mengmeng".

Stand up.

I heard Mr. Han say that this bridge is a line written by Wu Yusen's wife.

This movie has changed nine screenwriters before and after, and plot confusion is inevitable.

Anyway, Zhou Yutang is very optimistic about this group of Xiangjiang directors doing this kind of magnificent historical theme, magnificent war scenes, and they can shoot the feeling of gangster fighting.

These remnants of the old era, the new era no longer has a ship to carry them.

…………………………

Liu Shishi flew back to the magic capital after watching the movie, and the first sister of the Tang Dynasty has a lot of notices now.

Zhou Yutang is also busy with Olympic singing rehearsals and special film training.

Simple and fulfilling time, time always flies.

July has passed in a blink of an eye, and it has finally arrived that day of the world's attention.

Zhou Yutang specially asked Han for two internal tickets for the core area, and asked Zhou Zhengping to take Wang Fengqin to watch the event in person.

When the clock turned.

Brilliant fireworks circling the stadium and blooming like flowers over the bird's nest.

A huge sundial emerges, and the light of time emitted by the sundial illuminates the giant array.

When thousands of people shouted and shouted, Zhou Yutang stood at the scene.

He really felt the frequency of the resonance of a thousand people, and even the earth was trembling slightly.

That kind of magnificent scene made Zhou Yutang feel extremely shocked, and he couldn't help but admire it.

To play this kind of big scene, you have to be a national teacher.

In other words, Zhang Yimou and the entire behind-the-scenes team are the biggest contributors.

They spent years conceiving the layout, and from the opening ceremony, every second was filled with the wonder and romance of the Celestial Empire.

The movable type printing technique was shocking, the picture scroll was unfolded, the holy flame was ignited, and Zhou Yutang's blood was faintly boiling.

Only these few exquisite programs, but in a sense, they tell the inheritance of China's 5,000-year-old brilliant culture, and also symbolize the strong heritage of the great family.

In Director Zhang's words, it is "different snowflakes from all over the world gather in the capital and become a common snowflake of mankind." ”

Before today, the Celestial Empire was in a period of dormant development, and did not open the door to look at the whole world.

The vision of the Chinese people has always been limited to the previous era.

Many people have a strange mentality.

I feel that the Celestial Empire is backward, and the moon in foreign countries is particularly round, and even the air in the United States is sweet.

But after this world-renowned event, the eyes of the whole world will gradually focus on this big country in the East, and some Chinese people will gradually wake up.

"Teacher Liu Huan, hello."

Zhou Yutang also met the great artist Liu Huan, who sang with British singer Sarah Brightman at the opening ceremony, and said hello politely.

"Hehe, hello Xiao Zhou."

Teacher Liu Huan was wide-hearted and fat, and he was very kind, so he took the initiative to greet Zhou Yutang, shook hands, and patted him on the shoulder.

The two sat backstage and chatted for a while, and let him perform well at the closing ceremony, which made Zhou Yutang a little flattered.

"Brother Huan, why are you so polite to that kid?"

On the way back, Brother Huan's assistant was a little surprised.

According to Liu Huan's status in the music world, the juniors should take the initiative to greet him.

"Hehe, this Xiao Zhou, Shangdatian listened."

Liu Huan smiled and pointed to the roof of the car with his chubby finger.

"Hold the grass!"

The assistant spat out only one word.

The status of the rivers and lakes is important, but sometimes it is not important.

The big leader thinks that it is a talent, that is, a talent who needs to be formed.

…………………………

"Yu Tang, do you know Liu Huan? Yesterday he pulled you and talked for a long time. ”

In Jiangdong Studio, Li Shuang looked at Zhou Yutang suspiciously and looked at it for a while.

"I don't know."

Zhou Yutang was also inexplicable, but quickly recalled: "I remember that Mr. Han said that some leaders are quite optimistic about me, maybe it has something to do with this." ”

"It's possible, Teacher Liu Huan is also an old man, you will still be on variety shows in the future, Yang Mi and Tang Yan went crazy on variety shows last month, which brought a lot of traffic to the drama "Classmates"

"That's right, Sister Shuang."

Thinking about Teacher Liu Huan's amiable smiling face, listening to Li Shuang talk about variety shows, Zhou Yutang had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and his body, which was originally sitting on an office chair, suddenly sat up straight, and asked with a little excitement: "How about you say Jiangdong Studio will do a variety show?" ”

"Variety shows?"

Li Shuang was slightly stunned: "What type of variety show?" ”

"It's a music genre amateur talent show."

Zhou Yutang took a piece of paper and drew a few strokes on the paper: "Look, this is the stage, and then below is the judges' seat, sit on a specially made chair, let them turn their backs to the stage, and only listen to the singers singing on the stage."

"If the singer's voice on the stage can impress the judges, then the judges press a switch on the chair to turn the chair around"

"It's a bit of a novelty."

Li Shuang originally just had the attitude of listening, but he didn't expect to be attracted all of a sudden: "Yu Tang, I probably understand what you mean, don't rely on the singer's appearance, just rely on the singer's voice to let the judges choose people, what about after that?" ”

"After that?"

Zhou Yutang laughed softly: "Let a few judges be mentors, and those selected by him will join his team, and then each mentor team will enter the second stage after it is full." ”

"The second stage is to let the mentors perform on the same stage through professional training, and then select the most potential and excellent team members."

"Then start the PK between several mentor teams to see which team can teach students who can get more recognition from the audience."

"Hearing you say that, I'm kind of looking forward to this show."

Li Shuang listened fascinated, and at the same time asked questions: "Yu Tang, but there is a very important problem, we are not a TV station, even if the program is made, there is no place to broadcast it in the end?" ”

"What does it matter?"

Zhou Yutang smiled indifferently: "We can find someone to work with, this show can't be eaten by our own studio alone, I just roughly calculated, the initial investment is at least 100 million." ”

"100 million?"

Li Shuang's pupils shook directly.

"yes."

Zhou Yutang said slowly: "According to my ideas, this program must be done well, the audio equipment must be bought from abroad, and a few respected mentors must be invited, which is also a lot of expense."

"You're playing so big."

Li Shuang muttered: "The production costs of Supergirl and Fast Man are not so expensive, who are you going to cooperate with?" Mango Terrace? I have a good relationship with you over there. ”

"I can make my own."

"Yu Tang, although this show sounds very attractive, I still hope you can think carefully, now Jiangdong Studio has not yet reached the stage of casually taking 100 million yuan to invest in variety shows."

Li Shuang persuaded tactfully.

The studio has tens of millions of working capital on its books, and several popular dramas still have a lot of follow-up income because of the long-tail effect.

gritting your teeth and borrowing money from the bank can also take out 100 million.

But what's the difference between doing this and gambling?

Li Shuang, who pursues stability and progress, of course, has to advise.

Zhou Yutang smiled mysteriously: "Sister Shuang, you will know in two days." ”

…………………………

In the past two days, Zhou Yutang has been practicing hard in the way of Yu Lao, and the gym has not fallen, and then he took the time to accompany Lao Zhou and Ms. Wang to watch the Olympics together.

Lian Shun took a tour of the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, and several scenic spots in the capital.

For Ms. Wang Fengqin, who grew up in the south, seeing a different world does not need to talk about novelty and happiness.

The main reason is to see that Zhou Yutang is promising, and he is even more relieved.

Lao Zhou bought a batch of Olympic souvenirs to take back and prepare to give them to the students of the local poor primary school.

Zhou Yutang's project to help local poor students was handed over to Zhou Zhengping to watch, and it was running well.

Two days later.

Tian Ming arrived in Beijing.

This time, he took Zhu Jie to the capital to watch the Olympic Games.

When they arrived in the capital, they made a direct phone call to Zhou Yutang, and the two of them got together as usual.

"Yu Tang, how is the later stage of the drama "Latent"?"

"The later stage will be completed this month, and it is estimated that it will be ready for trial broadcast in October."

"Now your project, the whole circle is watching, next time there is any project, remember to say hello, I am interested in cooperating with you."

Tian Ming said with a smile.

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

The golden sign of Jiangdong Studio has been launched, and "Latent" has already attracted a lot of attention when filming has not started, and several TV stations are still thinking about starting in advance, but Zhou Yutang did not nod.

The main theme belongs to the film and television category vigorously advocated above, and with the quality of the drama "Latent", there is no worry about selling at all, it is better to wait for the finished film to be produced, and wait for several TV stations to bid to make a big profit.

"Brother Ming, when you talk about the project, I have an idea."

Zhou Yutang said directly: "How about we do a variety show together?" ”

When Sister Shuang said that she needed a front-line cooperation platform, he immediately thought of Tian Ming.

This show, if it is very profitable if it is done well, will definitely attract some people to covet it.

Then you need a person with a background to escort you, Tian Ming's background is unfathomable, and he is a good partner to work with.

"Tell me about it."

Tian Ming was also slightly stunned, made a listening posture, and listened to Zhou Yutang finish explaining part of the process of the variety show, and immediately became interested.

"This idea is very interesting, it can be said that it has never appeared in a music competition program in China, and it is also a highlight to tap amateurs through auditions."

Two bright lights erupted behind Tian Ming's glasses: "But the investment is not small, the top foreign audio equipment, and the music tutor, what do you want to do?" ”

"We'll do it together, half of one person, and then we'll make it and sell it to the TV station."

"Yes."

Tian Ming is a professional after all, and he quickly noticed the business opportunity: "This year's talent show has collectively disappeared, if this show is done well, it will definitely be able to win this piece of the young audience ratings market, but there are some details, I don't think it's perfect enough"

"For example, in the first part you said, I think there can be more interaction between the host and the singer to add a little fun."

"In this way, you can make an off-site connection in the first link, and then let those singers who have entered the blind audition from the audition can bring their relatives or friends"

Zhou Yutang added: "Insert some interview clips, you can also place a camera in the background, record the expressions of relatives and friends when some contestants are selected by the mentor or no one turns around for him, and you can also record the interaction of the tutor in order to compete for students, which can well mobilize the audience's emotions and make the show more interesting."

"In the second round, you can shoot some tutors, record songs and make music with students, and some life clips in the adaptation process, so that the audience can see the real life state, and also see that the tutor is a student who has really been trained by heart, and then let them compete in pairs, and whoever can win will be able to stand in the next link."

"Yu Tang."

Tian Ming slapped his thigh and couldn't help laughing: "You have so many ideas, why don't you be a star, just do a show with me." ”

"Brother Ming, I'll forget it."

Zhou Yutang shook his head: "Make some money by doing this show, my main business is still doing film and television projects, and when the Olympics are over, I still have a movie to make." ”

"What did the show's mentor say?"

"Four, please, and divide into four groups."

"In that case, there are two in the mainland, one in Xiangjiang, and one in Wanzhou."

Tian Ming pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and looked at Zhou Yutang's slightly stunned expression: "Is it conducive to unity, what do you think of the specific candidates?" ”

It is worthy of being a talent cultivated by a big family, with this ideological awareness, who will be in charge if you are not in power?

Zhou Yutang admired it very much in his heart, and suggested: "In terms of mentors, you must have a certain degree of popularity and respect, the mainland can invite Liu Huan, Princess, Xiangjiang Chen Yixun or Zhang Xueyou, if you want to bend the province, it is best to invite Zhou Jielun, take a step back is Harlem, it is very good at creating an atmosphere." ”

"The princess has withdrawn from the circle, will she still come out to do the show?"

"Take the money and smash it, if it doesn't work for a few million, then smash 10 million, I really don't believe that she can not be moved, if she really doesn't eat the fireworks in the world, then invite someone else."

Zhou Yutang disagreed.

The money is still very valuable this year.

The endorsement fee of a superstar of the level of Fa Ge and Liu Dehua in the Xiangjiang of the Celestial Dynasty will not exceed 10 million a year.

"Raying?"

"This is not good, the fame is enough, but the background is too complicated, and it is easy to have problems. If you can't do it, please Mao Amin, the first sister in the music scene in the 90s, when the ratings are this part, I want the old, middle and young generations to kill them! ”

"There's a head, my old man likes this."

Tian Ming pushed his glasses and said happily: "Ah Tang, when the time comes, I'll talk to the TV station first, what's the name of our show?" ”

"Just call it a good voice, a good voice of the Celestial Empire."

"That's a good name!"

Tian Ming was very excited, he seemed to have seen the huge potential of this show.

Zhou Yutang's expression was calm.

Just said silently in my heart.

This is the good voice of the Celestial Empire that belongs to me.
