Chapter 165: I'll take care of Aunt Liu
"First won the best screenwriter of Magnolia, and then won the Golden Jue actor crown, two and a half years after his debut, he improved faster than riding a rocket!"
"At the age of twenty-one, he has created a number of film records, and Zhou Yutang's amazing talent has been realized."
"Starting from scratch and spending hundreds of millions of dollars to buy a building, how much is Zhou Yutang's real worth?"
"Jiangdong Entertainment's "You from the Star", Zhou Yutang's ambitious work!"
"Gao Yuanyuan and Liu Shishi withdrew gloomily, Fan Xiaopang stepped in forcefully to no avail, and the merry and talented man regenerated his love."
"Sister Fairy is true love, Zhou Yutang spent 80 million to create a domestic super cast urban drama, and is about to create a classic of the year!"
Looking at the front-page news of a stack of entertainment newspapers bought by drizzle in the office.
Just returned to the capital after the Magic Capital International Film Festival, first accepted a wave of exclusive interviews with important media, and then began to make headlines.
Zhou Yutang flipped through it casually, turned on the computer and browsed the news on major forums.
This super production with Liu Yifei continues to ferment in popularity, attracting the attention of countless people in the circle, and also triggering a crazy discussion among a group of people on the Internet:
"Throughout Zhou Yutang's debut, there will be scandals in every play, which is this person's usual hype trick, which is really ridiculous." Future master Lu Zong Pingchuan.
"Haha, I just separated from Fan Xiaopang, and I immediately got along with Sister Fairy again, so I will supervise you to take it easy." Eat melon fun people Jiangdong Xu Sheng.
"Breaking a little news, in fact, Zhou Yutang has already had a girlfriend, it seems that in the magic capital, I once saw it at a private restaurant, and the two of them are very affectionate~~~" Lion kkk.
"It's not going to be Sugar Yan upstairs, is it? Tang Yan is a native of the magic capital, and she has a good relationship with Zhou Yutang. "Sugar is the first beautiful leg in domestic entertainment.
"Let's all retreat, Zhou Yutang is a good person, he can deal with it! Knowing that Sissi has been in a bad situation recently, and taking her to film, if you don't pay attention, I will support you. "Unintentionally planted willows and willows.
The "You from the Star" project was announced on the day of the company's relocation, and it had already caused a heated discussion at that time.
There are big items every year.
Every major entertainment company launches its own S-level projects almost every year, in order to enhance the artist's coffee position and increase the company's influence.
Koto Entertainment's major projects are particularly eye-catching.
The big projects invested by other film and television companies in the circle may fail, but Zhou Yutang has never missed.
The excellent reputation accumulated by continuous hit dramas has created an undefeated golden body for Jiangdong Entertainment Company.
As soon as the audience saw that it was produced by Jiangdong Entertainment and written by Zhou Yutang himself, they subconsciously felt that it must be a masterpiece.
Coupled with the project of 80 million yuan, Zhou Yutang, who has just won the Golden Goblet Award for Best Actor, starred, and the heroine is Liu Yifei, who has not had a new work for more than a year.
"My Love from the Star" has not yet started filming, and the popularity has been hyped to the sky by the media.
"Sister Shuang, the company "Star You" accounts for 60% of the share, and the light and China Film each invested 20%, with a cost budget of 60 million, the preliminary preparations are completed, and the filming will start directly in early July, and this time let Chen Xi be the producer."
"You trust her so much?"
"There is no doubt about employing people, there is no need for suspicious people, she has potential worth cultivating, the filming cycle of "Star You" is about two months, how is the commercial advertising department talking?"
"Armani, LV, and Mercedes-Benz have negotiated sponsorship, and several drinks and vitamin health products are still following up, and they can almost pull 30 million advertising investment."
"Speed up the progress and continue to talk, there is no ability to do things, and the department manager will be directly replaced at the end of the year."
Zhou Yutang was not very satisfied with this result.
"Let's Get Married" can pull in an advertising investment of 20 or 30 million, and a luxurious lineup cast like "You from the Star" is definitely only a lot more.
If the company wants to progress, it still has to continue to poach people.
After thinking about it, Zhou Yutang put on a pen and mentioned a little: "There is still a lot of room for operation in the advertising area, you are responsible for following up, and you can talk about cameras, cosmetics, etc." ”
In fact, it doesn't matter if there is no negotiation, some products are labeled with adhesive strips on the trademark, and after the TV series starts filming, the post-advertising is negotiated, and then these obscured trademarks are gradually revealed.
Let's look at the lineup of "My Love from the Stars".
The male protagonist is Zhou Yutang, and the female protagonist is Liu Yifei.
Yang Mi passed the audition for the second female lead, and the positioning in the play is a good girlfriend with the heroine, but because she has a crush on the second male, she is jealous of the heroine, and finally whitewashed.
The villain is Cao Ziang, the eldest son of the Cao Group, who decided to set Qin Hao.
This is a very powerful actor.
And he is professional enough, after getting the script, he often sends messages to communicate with Zhou Yutang about the plot and characters, and he is also a drama idiot.
The second male number is the little son of the Cao Group who has a crush on the heroine, that is, the younger brother of the villain, this role was originally expected to be internally digested and handed over to Zhang Ruojun, Zhang Ruojun's acting skills have also improved a lot in the past two years, and he made his debut as a warm man, and the second male in "Star You" did not violate the harmony at all.
However, he passed Feng Xiaogang's audition the day before yesterday, and he will join the group "The Great Earthquake" in the near future, and the schedule really can't be adjusted.
Zhu Yilong is also in the crew of "To Youth", and he also can't spare time.
Other people's actors are idle at home without filming, and following Zhou Yutang is a happy trouble, and there are so many scenes that they can't be arranged.
The two generals of Jiangdong Entertainment were all unavailable, so they had to hold an audition meeting in the end and choose people based on their strength.
Hundreds of actors came to the audition.
Cao Zizhi, the youngest son of the male No. 2 Cao Foundation, is the younger brother of the villain Qin Hao.
Through several stages of audition, Wang Kai was finally determined.
Kai Kai Wang is a graduate of Chinese opera, he is handsome enough, and he has also starred in several TV series, so he plays a warm man licking the dog very steadily.
In addition, Professor Zhou's good friend and brother, Zhou Yutang found Tian Yu, the ex-boyfriend of Tang Wei's sister.
Tian Yu is a second-level actor of the National Theater of the Celestial Dynasty, and his acting skills are beyond doubt.
However, his character makeup still needs to be made older, so as to highlight Zhou Yutang's youthful transcendence, which is in stark contrast to the passage of time of mortals.
There is also a heroine's younger brother Liu Zi'an, who has a lot of scenes, just one request:
Handsome!
After all, Aunt Liu can give birth to a peerless beauty like Liu Yiren, and as her younger brother, she will definitely not be able to pull her hips.
There were also a lot of people who auditioned, and in the end, taking into account comprehensive factors such as age and acting skills, Yang Yang, who was honored, and Chen Xiao of Huayi Company had the last laugh.
Zhou Yutang chose Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao is an undergraduate student of the Department of Chinese Opera Performance, a sunny and cheerful handsome guy, and his basic skills are quite solid, surpassing his peers a lot.
He starred in "Fellow Classmates" as Bi Thirteen, a cold student with facial paralysis, who usually acts conscientiously and does not do things, which has been praised by director Lin Yufen, and Zhou Yutang has a good impression of him.
In addition, the rival of the heroine of the plot, another female star is also very important.
originally wanted to invite Zeng Li to make a cameo, but after Sister Li won the vision at Magnolia, she connected seven or eight endorsements.
Among them, there are even top endorsements like Unicom, and the next announcement is full, and there is no time at all.
Zhou Yutang had no choice but to find Yan Danchen, a senior sister of the film academy, through an audition.
This is Concubine Yang in "The Love History of the Tang Dynasty", the Chang'e beauty in "Baolian Lantern", she also auditioned for Wang Yuyan at the beginning, Zhou Yutang saw her audition photos, and she was very impressed.
If you want to talk about appearance, Yan Danchen is definitely top.
And in the past two years, he has also been popular, and he is a good candidate.
The last important role is the mother of the big star Liu Yiren.
Zhou Yutang tentatively invited Aunt Liu for the first time, but she directly refused.
Sister Shuang felt funny: "Yu Tang, what do you think, do you really want Liu Xiaoli to play this role?" ”
"Nothing else, I think it's appropriate."
"She's hard to do."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of Aunt Liu."
Zhou Yutang is full of confidence.
He did it when he thought of it, and asked Liu Yifei to have dinner with Aunt Liu another day.
"Yu Tang, don't persuade me anymore, I will definitely not take over the play."
At first, Aunt Liu was very resistant.
"Auntie, Sissi has been working really hard lately and has made a lot of progress"
Zhou Yutang is not in a hurry, his routine is very deep, and at the beginning, he pulled a family routine, eliminated everyone's estrangement, and also weakened Aunt Liu's resistance.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Zhou Yutang always feels that Aunt Liu has a very complicated sense of herself.
On the one hand, he must be grateful, and on the other hand, he looked at Liu Yifei very closely, as if he was afraid that he would eat her
This misunderstanding is too deep, isn't it?
Speaking of Liu Yifei, Aunt Liu's face was a little pale, and she took the initiative to say, "I really want to thank you for Qianqian's matter." ”
In fact, Zhou Yutang can probably grasp Aunt Liu's thoughts.
It's not that Aunt Liu doesn't want to act, she was originally an artist, and she also played the Queen Mother in "The King of Kung Fu".
However, after that appearance, the box office of the movie was dismal, and it was all negative reviews, which gave Aunt Liu a heavy blow, and she was disheartened from then on.
Hey!
Liu Yifei listened to Zhou Yutang praising herself, the corners of her mouth pursed slightly, and her heart was so sweet that it seemed that the marshmallow was melting.
It turned out that Xiao Zhou saw all his efforts and efforts during this time.
So, she also helped Zhou Yutang persuade him: "Mom, you can act too, Xiao Zhou's script is very good, I think you can try it." ”
"Sissi, don't mess around."
Aunt Liu was very moved, and then still refused.
A mature woman is determined, but it is much more difficult to coax than a little girl.
Zhou Yutang spent a while, and directly resorted to a killer move: "Aunt Liu, you don't want to hit the street with the first work of Qian Qian just returning to the public eye, right?" ”
"This"
Aunt Liu's face suddenly showed a look of worry.
She was originally full of confidence in Liu Yifei, and at that time she felt that as long as she went further, she would really be able to enter Hollywood and soar completely.
I didn't expect to fall directly from the clouds.
Later, Aunt Liu knew what the rules of the game were and what was called the sinister heart.
When Liu Yifei was popular, countless people sought after her, but she pounced on a movie, and she made a wrong move, which made her reputation plummet.
If Zhou Yutang hadn't come forward to get Huayi, maybe now she would have to take her daughter to Xiangjiang to avoid the limelight, because at that time, no one in the entire domestic entertainment dared to cooperate with Liu Yifei.
Aunt Liu has always been a little grateful to Zhou Yutang in her heart, but she also has her own thoughts: "Yutang, it's not that I don't agree, but my acting skills are really not good, I'm afraid of dragging you down." ”
"You can be an aunt, if you play it, I can be sure that it will be able to better help Sissi into the play, which is very important to her."
“.”
From dinner to supper, Zhou Yutang spent three inches of tongue and dry mouth, and finally got Aunt Liu.
Aunt Liu said that it was only this time, and in the end she reluctantly accepted the role.
In reality, it was originally a mother and daughter, and if you bring it in, you will directly act in your true colors, and there is no problem at all if you can bring Liu Yifei into the play.
After getting Aunt Liu, Zhou Yutang directly asked the crew to make the final preparations before the start of filming.
In late June, the 2nd and 3rd seasons of "Together Through the Window" were broadcast on Mango Satellite TV.
With the happy base camp recorded by the main creative team, the ratings on the opening night exceeded that of the first season, which is also the positive feedback brought by the good word-of-mouth for a long time.
In addition, the broadcast time happened to be summer vacation, and many students who went home during the holiday turned into little bullies and occupied the TV set at home, contributing a wave of ratings.
If the first season gave everyone a glimpse of what it means to abandon the inherent routines of youth campus dramas, then the second and third seasons are like a real picture, pulling the audience into it.
No car accidents and amnesia, no terminal illness and no abortions.
There is no rich second generation who falls in love with white poor beauty.
Some are just characters with different personalities but portrayed very realistically.
The actor Lu Qiaochuan, who was sprayed very miserably in the first season, no longer has the arrogance of his freshman year in his sophomore and junior year, and has become more mature and responsible, but he is still a gentle but kind boy.
Ren Yifan is still the invincible cosmic scumbag skateboard, but he also met his true love senior sister, and his heart was blank for that woman.
The grinning female man Zhong Bai is so soft and kind, letting the audience know that the female man in love will also be shy.
No longer draw the ground as a prison, Xiao Haiyang, a rough man from the Northeast who came out of his past love.
Bi Thirteen, an all-round scholar with a paralyzed face and a poisonous tongue but backbone, and Lin Luoxue, a good girl who is obviously green tea but distressing.
There are also Gu Yixin, who is bent on making money, and Li Shuci, who has gradually become brave from a gentle little white flower
This group drama continues the style of the first season, and the theme of growth is mixed with daily fun and warm little things, portraying each character in a three-point and extremely down-to-earth manner.
The audience can more or less find the shadow of themselves or the people around them in this drama.
"It's still so joyful, so heartfelt, but it exudes a touching youth."
"The needle doesn't poke! Ren Yifan wants to be more scum, more scum, more affectionate and affectionate. ”
"It's really a divine drama, real college life is like this, sand sculpture and joy, when I watch this drama, I feel like I'm looking in the mirror."
"Woo woo, Lin Luoxue's growth environment is too difficult, no wonder she is insecure, she really wants to hold Tangtang in her arms"
"Doesn't anyone think that the female man Zhong Bai played by Yang Mi is also cute?"
"Zhou Yutang added drama to Li Li in the fourth season! Li Jun is invincible in the world! Support Qinbao white cut black! ”
"How much love did Zhou Yutang, the old thief, fall in love to understand youth so well?"
"Zhou Yutang, the god of youth dramas!"
Zhou Yutang skillfully switched into his vest and began to look through the comments on various forums on the Internet.
The Douban score of Season 2 is 9.2, and the score of Season 3 is 9.3.
The score is stable.
But the current number of people who score is basically fans who have chased "Classmates 1", so the score will be relatively high.
Later, after more and more viewers watch it, there will definitely be dissatisfaction, and the score will naturally drop at that time, but no matter what, the lower limit is estimated to be not too low.
"Sister Shuang, how are the ratings?"
"After the first week, the average rating has broken 4.8, and the market share has accounted for 11.8, which is higher than the first season."
Market share refers to the ratio of the number of viewers watching "Classmates" to the total number of viewers in the same period.
With the development of the network, it is difficult to see the 10 ratings as before, but in recent years, the survey data has become more and more detailed, and market share is also a very important statistic.
"It's not bad, it's barely a small hit drama."
Zhou Yutang observed the ratings of the same period and nodded with satisfaction.
Follow this trend.
If nothing else, "Classmates" is basically invincible in the same period.
It can be regarded as a classic youth campus drama worthy of the hot comments of netizens.
The so-called classics.
is the same as "I Want to See You" and "Those Years", even if it is a few years later, some people will turn it out and watch it, and it feels good after watching it.
This drama is worth it.
