Chapter 156 Two and a half years after his debut, he reached the top overnight

A night of tossing and turning.

Sleep in a hug all night.

Zhou Yutang went to China Film the next day.

Han Sanping was also invited to next month's Magnolia Awards ceremony.

China Film Group is one of the producers, and Han Sanping is also named as a producer, so he is naturally a part of the crew of "Latent".

When we met, we inevitably talked about the box office of "Lone Agent".

Han Sanping was a little happy and a little sad.

is happy because "Lone Agent" is a phenomenal hit, breaking various box office records in a row, and Mr. Han feels that his face is bright.

is still worried because of "Lone Agent", the box office of this horse is too high.

After "Titanic" landed in the Celestial Empire theaters in the spring of 1998, the total box office in China reached 360 million yuan, suppressing the luck of the Celestial Empire movies for more than ten years.

During this period, Zhang Yimou, Xiao Gangpao and others made a lot of commercial big-budget movies, but they still couldn't cross that mountain.

Han Sanping made the main theme blockbuster "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China", in order to present the motherland, and also had a purpose, that is, to break the box office record of "Titanic".

Unexpectedly, "Lone Agent" was a big hit, and the box office miraculously broke through the 500 million mark.

Although the current daily box office has dropped to several million, China Film predicts based on analysis that the box office of "Agent" will be around 525 million.

For now.

This is definitely a very scary number.

Will "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China" be able to break this record at that time?

Even if there is a luxurious all-star lineup of more than 170 people.

Mr. Han has no confidence in his heart.

After talking for a while, Han Sanping opened his mouth and asked, "Yu Tang, what projects do you have to do next?" ”

"The company has collaborated with Huayi on a movie."

"You're not involved yourself?"

"My schedule is full, let the people from the company get on, and I still have a TV series project in my hand."

"Oh?"

Han Sanping's eyes lit up, and after understanding it, he was quite interested: "This book sounds a little interesting, but don't you have a movie project plan?" ”

This is really the case in the current stage of the Celestial Empire film and television circle.

The appeal of movies is stronger than that of TV series.

However, in a few years, capital will pour in, the film and television industry will be reshuffled, and any actor and actress will run to act in TV series.

If you want to create an undefeated golden body, you must have a hit TV series that you can handle.

The high national degree is equivalent to the blood cow in the game, even if it is full of damage from the movie hitting the street, it can still gain a foothold in the circle.

Positive example, Liu Tianxian.

Negative example, Zhang Ziyi.

Zhang Ziyi's coffee position is very high, and she has become an international chapter, but her national degree in the Celestial Empire is really low.

Facing Han Sanping's eager gaze, Zhou Yutang smiled bitterly: "I have a few ideas, but I have just finished running the promotional roadshow for more than half a month, so I have to take a good rest." ”

Mr. Han shook his head and said earnestly: "How can young people choose comfort when they are energetic? I think back then, at your age, I worked in Emei Film Studio, starting as a lighting worker and a scene reporter, and in order to pursue progress, I only slept 4 hours a day."

Third master, when I was on the roadshow, you didn't say that on the phone.

You let me rest well, and I must pay attention to protecting my body, which is the capital of the revolution.

Zhou Yutang's expression twitched: "I have some immature ideas, I want to report to you." ”

"Tell me?"

Han Sanping was in good spirits, his eyes lit up, and his body leaned forward slightly.

"The script is not finished."

Zhou Yutang said: "But it's probably about the story of the struggle between a low-level Ah Air and the arrogant and domineering second generation of chaebol Zhiyong game."

Han Sanping groaned for a while, bowed his head slightly, but did not speak.

But his heart was full of admiration.

Zhou Yutang is really not simple, his perception of the film and television industry is particularly keen, just listening to it, I feel that the plot of this story is very tense, and there is no lack of depth.

"Mr. Han, what do you think?"

"The exchange of money and power, power and coercion and temptation, this film wants to expose social class contradictions?"

As a professional filmmaker, Han Sanping's vision is beyond doubt, and he can see the context of Zhou Yutang's story at a glance.

"That's pretty much what it means, the core of the script can be mined in combination with the social situation, which is easier to resonate with the audience."

"Not bad!"

Han Sanping nodded with satisfaction: "The plot tension is very strong, it's a good idea, but to make this film, we must be careful not to do too much, we must be positive."

"Justice will only be late, but it will not be absent, I mainly let the audience know that there is true love in the world."

"Your consciousness is progressing very quickly!" Han Sanping was halfway through his words, and Zhou Yutang was slightly stunned for a moment when he said the second half of the sentence.

"It's all Mr. Han's instructions, and the spirit is in place."

"Don't talk to me officially, by the way, don't forget the celebration banquet over there."

…………………………

Zhou Yutang and Han Sanping talked about "Veteran", and after Mr. Han's suggestion, it was renamed "Big Man".

This is a script he wrote during his night break during the filming of "Lone Agent", which tells the story of the experienced low-level old policeman who overthrows the arrogant and domineering chaebol II Zugongzi.

He also buried a small easter egg in "Lonely Agent", when Zhong Wen played by Leung Jiahui sent Ren Dahua on the road, there was a line, saying that the chairman of the Zhao Group in the mainland ordered a matching kidney on his side because of a bad kidney, and Ren Dahua was lucky to meet the matching type.

But.

This script is not yet perfect, and it will have to wait until the second half of the year to shoot.

On the way back to the company from China Film Group, Ning Hao, who was filming "No Man's Land" on the Gobi, specially called him to say hello.

Ning Hao was also happy for his friends.

The big male lead movie, Zhou Yutang alone carried a box office of 500 million.

directly took the box office record of the Celestial Empire movie flying.

At the same time, it also brought Zhou Yutang's status in the film industry away.

The main thing is to step on someone's head.

Ning Hao and Zhou Yutang felt the same way, just one word:

Refreshing!

"Lao Ning, how is the scenery over there?"

"You said here, do you want to come and have fun, ride a camel, it's fun, by the way, give me a cameo role, I'm talking to you, and I'm in a mouthful of sand."

I could clearly hear Ning Hao open his mouth and spit out on the other side of the phone, and scolded Lu again by the way: "Things were done so beautifully some time ago, and the guy who stepped on the horse is really not a thing." ”

Ning Hao talked about this topic, and Zhou Yutang smiled indifferently.

He rarely fired.

But when he stepped up, there were already many people standing behind him to support him.

Ning Hao was in the Gobi at the time, and when he heard about it, he asked his wife to post a message and spray it fiercely.

Lu someone's film invested 80 million, and the estimate given by the professional box office agency is to guarantee a box office of 150 million, and there is hope to hit 200 million.

As a result, Zhou Yutang came to snipe with a hand-held file, and directly hit the movie with a crooked ass to the box office of only more than 40 million.

"You said that grandson had to vomit blood, right?"

Ning Hao was so happy to say it, Zhou Yutang hurriedly took the phone away to avoid being infected by his demonic laughter.

Ning Hao seems to have other ideas: "Yu Tang, you said that movies from that angle can pass the review, then there is no reason for me to be ......stuck in this no-man's land."

He seems to be lacking in confidence and is cheering himself up.

"It's hard to say, let's see when the time comes."

Zhou Yutang is also not easy to evaluate.

Under the current review system, the scale of "No Man's Land" is a bit excessive.

In the next few days, the box office of "Agent" slowly exceeded 520 million.

Wang Changtian, the boss of Guangguang, paid a big bag for a celebration banquet in a five-star hotel in Beijing.

Gotta do it!

The new Celestial Empire movie box office record is too long for Light Media!

Han Sanping, Yang Shoucheng, and Wang Changtian were all red-faced, and the three giants held Zhou Yutang in the middle like stars and moons.

Click! Click!

The media invited to the audience are all related to several entertainment companies, and they are almost crazy for this explosive news material.

All of a sudden, the flashing lights shone one one after another, making the banquet hall as bright as day.

It was also accompanied by the buzz of the audience:

"The three bosses escort, Zhou Yutang is about to take off!"

"Two and a half years after his debut, he reached the top overnight, this Zhou Yutang is really a monster!"

"In this movie, Jiangdong Entertainment Company seems to have a very high investment share, how much money does he have to make at such a high box office?"

"Now his coffee position has completely soared."

The long table is covered with a curtain, and when it opens, there is a spectacular ice sculpture, and the series of numbers shines brightly under the brilliant light.

Several CEOs spoke separately.

At the end, the audience applauded enthusiastically.

Zhou Yutang also applauded gently.

"Yu Tang, you can also say a few words."

originally wanted to give up the stage to the three bigwigs to brag, but he didn't expect Han Sanping to take the initiative to hold Zhou Yutang's shoulders and hand over the microphone with a smile.

"Then I'll just say a few words."

Zhou Yutang took the microphone and said with a calm expression: "The success of "Lonely Agent" is inseparable from the support of Mr. Han and the release of light, and Yinghuang also provided a lot of help during the filming process."

"I just wrote a script, invested some money, played a role, thank you for your love, I will continue to improve, and I hope to bring better works in the future."

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

After Zhou Yutang finished speaking, the audience applauded like thunder.

Huayi's Xiao Wang was also applauding, but his mood was quite complicated.

Such a phenomenal hit, Huayi didn't catch it, but let the light be in the limelight.

If you don't make it yourself, and others make a lot of money, it is equivalent to losing yourself

Fortunately, there is still a youth script made by Zhou Yutang, and it is estimated that the box office is also guaranteed, and everything in the future will deepen the relationship with him.

I didn't dare to slack off a little time ago.

Right now.

Finally, it was time to open the champagne and taste the fruits of victory.

Zhou Yutang first touched glasses with the three bosses Han Sanping, Wang Changtian, and Yang Shoucheng.

"Yu Tang, have the opportunity to go to the crew of "To Youth", and communicate more in the future, you are also one of the shareholders of Huayi, you must have the spirit of ownership!"

Xiao Wang always smiled and politely took the initiative to come over to toast, and Zhou Yutang also clinked glasses politely to face.

As soon as I finished arguing with Mr. Xiao Wang, the big dog brother who was galloping on the pony came over again: "Yu Tang, you are a real cow X who stepped on a horse!" ”

Brother Big Dog's congratulations are so unpretentious, and they seem incompatible with Mr. Han and other bigwigs.

Zhou Yutang saw that there was still a group of people waiting to come over to toast, and took the big dog brother to a secluded corner to chat.

"I just came back from the United States last month, and I went there to see the special effects company."

"Big dog, do you really want to be a special effects company in the Celestial Empire?"

"Of course, future movies will be inseparable from special effects, and I tell you, I will gain a lot from going there this time."

"Big dog, you really have a vision."

Zhou Yutang really admired.

Big Dog Brother started as an advertiser, he has money and background, his vision is also good, and he is well-known in the circle, and Ning Hao has a good relationship with him.

At this stage, starting to lay out a special effects company is on the right path, but it has to burn money.

Tens of millions are not enough to spend.

Zhou Yutang is rich now, but he has not reached the point of taking tens of millions out to burn it.

Next.

He was going to take the company building first.

This is the foundation of Jiangdong Film and Television Culture and Entertainment Company, to do special effects, you can wait for the company to take off after the advanced Hollywood step on a point, and then continue to export talents to learn the process operation mode there, and then package and acquire the special effects company there, and establish a complete set of systems.

Of course.

That's all for later.

After finishing the work here, a young woman caught Zhou Yutang's attention

He's not a thief.

This young woman is Jiang Xueming, the proprietress of Zhou Yi, who is as famous as Cai Yinong of Tang Film and Television.

Zhou Yutang has been coveting the behind-the-scenes team of the Tang people for a long time, but after poaching Lin Yufen and Mao Jianxin and others from the Tang people, the remaining Li Guoli is a shareholder of the Tang people, and he can't dig it at all, and the others have made no progress.

Zhou Yi Company is also a well-known film and television company in the industry, and has done "Water Moon Cave Sky", "Wulin Foreign History", "Li Wei as an Official", "Eight Formations of Gods and Ghosts", "Xiao Shiyi Lang", "Young King".

Including the originator of the time-traveling drama "Love Through Time and Space" in the film and television industry of the Celestial Empire, it is also from Zhou Yi Company.

Pick out any one, and it can be called a wonderful TV series above the level.

"Mr. Zhou, congratulations on the box office hit!"

Jiang Xuezhen is an intellectual and dignified woman, and Zhou Yutang also shook hands with her politely: "I like Zhou Yi's TV series very much, especially "Water Moon Cave Sky", a very classic drama. ”

"It is an honor for Zhou Yi to be appreciated by Mr. Zhou."

Jiang Xueyan was slightly stunned, and then a friendly smile appeared on her face: "Jiangdong Film and Television Culture and Entertainment Company is really powerful, every one of them is a hit drama, and Mr. Zhou's transformation of movies is also very successful, I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

Although it is a commercial blow, there is a bit of sincerity between the words on both sides.

Jiang Xuezhen really admires Zhou Yutang, who started from scratch and can make such a career.

As for Zhou Yutang, he basically watched Zhou Yi's TV series when he was in school, and once thought that Brother Tong was the most handsome man in the world

After a simple exchange, we had a good conversation.

As soon as he added personal contact information with Jiang Xue, Fan Xiaopang appeared behind him out of nowhere, and said in a quiet voice: "Yu Tang, it turns out that you like this style?" ”

Looking at this goblin's face suddenly, as if he had discovered a big secret, Zhou Yutang calmly explained: "Talking about business matters, there is no other meaning." ”

"Mm-hmm, I believe you."

"Sister Binbin, why don't you go to socialize?"

"It's so boring to socialize."

Fan Xiaopang threw a wink and said curiously: "Do you and Jiang Xuejin have any business matters to discuss, do you want to work with Zhou Yi to make a TV series?" ”

In normal times, on this occasion, she would definitely go to socialize.

Fan Xiaopang also opened his own studio, and he also needs to accumulate network resources.

But now she has a new purpose.

Compared with the useless connections accumulated by frequent socialization, it is far less important than winning Zhou Yutang.

debuted for two and a half years, reached the top overnight, and talked and laughed with big guys, if there is a baby like Zhou Yutang, it is equivalent to taking a shortcut, so what connections do you need?

"You found out all this?"

Zhou Yutang deliberately made a look of surprise, which attracted Fan Xiaopang's coquettishness, and inadvertently gave Zhou Yutang a few blows with a pink fist.

"Yu Tang, what are you talking about, so happy?"

At this time, Gao Yuanyuan, who was wearing a one-shoulder bandeau dress, made her debut.

Da Meiyuan was dressed very gently and dignified tonight, without losing the charm of a mature woman, and her eyes glanced straight at Fan Xiaopang.

"Heh, Yuanyuan is here, we were just talking about project cooperation."

Fan Xiaopang was wearing a gilded long dress, which was also glamorous.

Both women were observing each other, as if analyzing each other's combat effectiveness.

"Tell me about any project."

“.”

The two beauties, one on the left and one on the right, each occupy one of Zhou Yutang's arms, although the fragrance is fluttering, and the blessings are not shallow, but these two big flowers are faintly a little sharp.

Fortunately, Fan Xiaopang has a lot of eyes, and when he received a call from his agent Mu Xiaoguang, he was decisively flashed.

The banquet ends.

On the way home with Da Meiyuan, Zhou Yutang dialed Li Shuang's phone: "Sister Shuang, do you know Jiang Xuejin of Zhou Yi's company?" ”

"It's okay, I've met a few times, but I'm not very familiar."

"How is the operation of Zhouyi Company?"

"Zhou Yi's development momentum has not been good in recent years, and Jiang Xuejin seems to have a relationship with her husband."

"Go talk to Jiang Xuejing."

Zhou Yutang's eyes moved: "Take this line first." ”

"Are you the team behind Zhou Yi?"

Li Shuang has been following Zhou Yutang for so long, and he knows his style very well.

"Don't be in a hurry, take it slowly."

A meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Yutang's mouth.

Zhouyi Company is a well-known mom-and-pop shop in the circle.

The boss personally went down to grasp the script creation, and led the screenwriting team to conceive new ideas every day, while Jiang Xuezhen was responsible for making dramas, and the first few years were booming.

However, Zhouyi's development model is a bit problematic.

If you hold a person alone for a long time, the drama is not popular.

In addition, in recent years, domestic film and television companies have risen one after another, a hundred flowers are blooming, and the overall operation of Zhouyi is gradually declining every day, and it is even inferior to Tang Film and Television.

No surprises.

Next, Zhou Yi is going downhill.

Maybe they will break up suddenly.

There is a behind-the-scenes team that has been working together for several years, and its tacit understanding and professionalism are beyond doubt.

Zhou Yutang hit this idea.

If it can fully accept Zhou Yi's behind-the-scenes team, it will definitely be a great reinforcement for Jiangdong Film and Television Culture and Entertainment Company.

Zhou Yutang was talking about things, and Da Meiyuan leaned on his shoulder.

Looking at this man's clear and superior cheeks, he felt the city and forbearance that were completely inconsistent with his age.

The heart is beating uncontrollably.
