Chapter 248: Endure to see the heroes of the world
After making a blockbuster.
You have to reward yourself with a feeling.
In the past, in order to make progress, Zhou Yutang also found time to write scripts at night in addition to filming.
But now that I have a screenwriter's studio, I have more resources at my disposal.
He only needs to make the outline of the script, and then he can let the screenwriter's studio supplement and improve the details of the story according to his own ideas.
Bang Bang Bang!
Zhou Yutang clapped his hands, and everyone in the small conference room who was still whispering immediately quieted down.
"After reading the synopsis of this script, what do you think?"
"Crazy chasing stars, that's my lost youth and memories."
As the boss of the screenwriting department, Pingshi stood up to speak.
"The youth of our generation."
Everyone here feels the same way.
Zhou Yutang's script is a youth drama for the post-80s generation of the Celestial Empire, although it has not been completed, the characters of several protagonists are already extremely distinct.
The stories of these people are touching enough to resonate with everyone.
One can't help but think back to the past.
A lot of big things happened in 1997.
In that year, the Internet began to become widespread.
This year, Xiangjiang returned.
But in the script outline made by Zhou Yutang, the timeline does not just stay in 1997.
The reunion of the hero and heroine a few years later, and even the high school reunion later, have stories, interspersed with various details.
With the growth of the heroes and heroines in the TV series, it also reflects the changes of the entire era.
Everyone listened quietly as Zhou Yutang continued.
"Next, according to the important task of the studio, you are to finish the script of "Please Answer 1997".
"If the ratings are acceptable after the broadcast, you can consider making it into a series model."
Babysitter in the car.
Yang Mi is holding the latest issue of "People of the Times" in her hand.
The cover photo of the magazine is Zhou Yutang.
Wearing a black slim-fitting suit with his elbows propped up on the table.
Ten fingers crossed, frontal close-up, fully reflects the superiority of Zhou Yutang's cheeks.
It's like a superior line drawn by a master sketcher, clear and cold.
Those deep eyes, with a heart-beating temperature, seem to glance at others unintentionally, and they also seem affectionate.
Behind his back.
is the box office number of the big shots.
The figures that set box office records for Celestial Empire movies are particularly dazzling.
It also seems to add a layer of eminent aura to him.
Yang Mi pursed her lips, flipped through the two pages, and then turned back to the cover again, looking at this guy.
It was the voice of the agent Zeng Jia that pulled her back to reality: "Mimi, hurry up and touch up your makeup, Mr. Zhou has come to see you." ”
Yang Mi suddenly perked up.
Put the magazine in your hand aside.
Today is the launch conference of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", and Bona has invested 35 million US dollars in a 3D martial arts blockbuster, which has made a huge noise.
Yang Mi, as one of the main actors, of course has to attend.
The key is that she also heard that Zhou Yutang will also attend today's press conference.
Seeing Zhou Yutang, Yang Mi's dark and bright eyes stared at him, and Zhou Yutang touched his cheek: "Is there anything?" ”
"Nope."
Yang Mi was embarrassed to say that she thought he was much more handsome than he looked in the magazine, and only asked, "When did you have such a good relationship with the people of Bona?" ”
Zhou Yutang smiled indifferently: "Wang Weiren is good, we can talk very well." ”
The entertainment industry is already so big, especially the upper echelons of this circle.
Look down and don't look up.
He was also a little cautious, and wanted to poach Wang Wei from Bona Pictures to do things.
After several contacts, I realized that this viagra is really a top talent in the film and television industry, and the relationship between the two was hot during this time.
"Yu Tang, I haven't auditioned in the crew of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".
Speaking of this, Yang Mi looked a little lost.
"Don't be too greedy, do your own things well first."
Zhou Yutang still has a good understanding of the work style of the national teacher, and this time he said that he wanted to use a rookie actress.
"When will "Palace" be filmed?"
"When the scene here is over, then go directly to the group."
Zhou Yutang withdrew his gaze at the skin that was condensed like fat snow by the neckline of Yang Mi's skirt, and chuckled: "Today's dress is good." ”
A simple black slip dress, with slightly curled hair just up to her shoulders, matched her tall figure and curves, which is really eye-catching.
"Thank you."
Women have always been very sensitive to men's eyes looking at themselves, and Yang Mi is no exception, she is a little proud at the moment, and her tone is getting sweeter and sweeter:
"Yu Tang, I just finished the line with Director Xu Keda's "Tongtian Empire" in the National Day file, I heard that he has a very close relationship with Wu Baige, come here now, aren't you afraid that he will have an opinion on you?"
"You're thinking a little too much."
Zhou Yutang shook his head and chuckled: "How can there be so many opinions? ”
It's no wonder that Yang Mi has such doubts.
There are too many stories between Xu Ke and Wu Yusen.
At the Venice Film Festival this year, Xu Ke personally awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award to Wu Yusen, and the two hugged each other on stage, which led to a heated conversation.
was communicating with Da Mimi, Wang Wei, the vice president of Bona Films, took Xu Ke over and took the initiative to say hello: "Yu Tang, say Cao Cao Cao arrived, I just told Director Xu about you." ”
"Director Zhou, I've admired my name for a long time."
Xu Ke held Zhou Yutang's hand and shook it, with excitement in his eyes: "I watched "Big Man", and it was very good. ”
"Director Xu, I grew up watching your movies."
The sedan chair carries people, and Zhou Yutang is also very modest.
The peerless Oriental in "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is undefeated.
"Huang Feihong" series, "Dragon Gate Inn", "Dao Ma Dan", "A Chinese Ghost Story".
There are really too many classics, and the kind of unbridled imagination of Xu Ke's works brings the audience a beautiful visual experience, which is indeed worth learning.
Xu Ke was slightly stunned, felt faced, and smiled enthusiastically: "Let's communicate more in the future." ”
Although he has gray hair, he still has his own ambitions and pursuits.
As for the grievances between Zhou Yutang and Wu Baige, what does it have to do with him?
He will have to eat in the mainland in the future, seeing that Zhou Yutang is about to become a giant in the mainland film and television industry, not to mention actively getting closer, he definitely can't be offended.
Yang Mi obediently stood beside Zhou Yutang.
Listening to Zhou Yutang and Xu Ke introduce themselves, Yang Mi was a little flattered.
But before her eyes were so sweet that they were like honey melting and drawing, she was soon called by Zeng Jia to take pictures.
There are really a lot of acquaintances at today's press conference.
Zhou Xun came over, looked at Zhou Yutang with smart eyes, and asked thoughtfully: "Are you getting along with Yang Mi?" ”
"Sister Xun, don't be kidding, we're good friends."
"She was almost on you as soon as she spoke."
"Is there one? No, Yang Mi is an artist in my company, and I will take her to meet the director. ”
"Huh."
Zhou Gongzi, who has been in love for a long time, has not been famous, he only smiled slightly, and did not speak, and the obvious message was conveyed in those big smart eyes.
You scumbag.
Zhou Yutang greeted Chen Kun without changing his face.
In the future, it will be the famous Xichang factory.
This kind of handsome guy with a feminine temperament is unique in the entire entertainment industry, and he can't find a meal replacement.
Kung Fu Emperor Li Lianjie also arrived, and since "Huo Yuanjia" and "Casting Names", he has never had a work that he can get his hands on.
"The King of Kung Fu" is not much to mention, but the film "Ocean Paradise" has a good reputation.
I don't know what he thinks, but he recently made a cameo appearance in "The Legend of the White Snake".
This time they met, after shaking hands, the two hugged each other and politely expressed their appreciation for each other.
Zhou Yutang inadvertently caught a glimpse of the deep wrinkles in the corners of his eyes.
I suddenly found out.
The Kung Fu Emperor is really much older than in previous years.
It was as if the spirit had been leaked all of a sudden.
The high-spirited kung fu emperor at the beginning was no match for the years after all.
Bear with the old heroes of the world.
The smoke of the National Day file dissipated.
But the film industry is extremely lively.
Xu Ke's "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" sparked a heated discussion, and several big directors in the circle also made big moves.
The actor of the new film "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" has been decided, and Batman Christian Bale will play this role.
When the news came out, one stone stirred up a thousand waves.
Brother Chen Kai is not willing to be lonely.
This time he didn't chant poetry, but he was also very confident and said in a high-profile manner: "I believe everyone has been looking forward to "Zhao's Orphan" for a long time, I can only say that this costume historical drama will definitely not disappoint everyone, not to mention how the box office is, I hope everyone can taste the artistic attainments in it"
The publicity team over there has already made a move, and began to send a press release with the popular top actress Fan Xiaopang, which attracted a wave of exposure.
Fan Binbin played Zhuang Ji in "Zhao's Orphan", and a pregnant woman photo was also on the hot search.
The gorgeous costume Aya Luo is beautiful.
According to the news released by the interview, in each strand of her hair, extremely fine gold threads are buried, and the hosta on her head is worth millions of dollars.
"Director Chen Da is playing so big this time?"
Zhou Yutang was curious and verified it in person, Fan Xiaopang said with palpitations: "It's really so expensive, it looks very beautiful, but when I was wearing it for filming, seven or eight bodyguards followed and cared for it all day long, and I didn't even dare to bow my head when I went to the toilet with makeup, and I was nervous to death." ”
Millions of Fan Xiaopang must be able to get it, but after all, this is the crew's thing, and it will hurt to lose money if you bump it.
Mr. Fan has been very active in the entertainment industry this year, walked all kinds of red carpets, and also participated in the investment of the film project "New Shaolin Temple".
That movie will be released at the end of the year, and it may become Zhou Yutang's biggest competitor.
Entertainment in the circle has always liked to do things, "Big Man" increased the box office record of Xiao Gangcang's Celestial Empire movies by more than 100 million, so he took the initiative to block Feng Xiaogang, wanting to hear a little stimulating words from his mouth.
"Director Feng, the box office record of "The Great Earthquake" was broken after only two months, how do you feel about this?"
"Thoughts?"
Feng Xiaogang's face did not change, but replied with a smile: "I feel very relieved, Yu Tang is an old friend, I am very happy that he can achieve such results."
Yu Ji pretended to be surprised: "Happy? Director Feng, didn't you say that "The Great Earthquake" made your life complete? Now that Zhou Yutang has made your life not so complete, you are still happy. ”
Feng Xiaogang probably wanted to give this entertainment a slap in his heart, but he still responded with a smile on his face: "I am very happy that the film industry of the Celestial Empire can develop so fast, which shows that the capacity of the film market is expanding, and emerging forces in the film industry like Yu Tang are also promoting the development of the entire industry to a certain extent, making the whole cake bigger. Also, his acting skills are very good, he just won the Golden Eagle Emperor, I hope we can cooperate in the future. ”
Ning Hao's Bad Monkey Studio.
Zhou Yutang stole half a day of leisure, drinking tea and chatting, and listened to Ning Hao, who was wearing a big gold chain, grinned and said: "Yu Tang, Director Feng is really interesting, and I want to cooperate with you." ”
"Kind words."
Zhou Yutang also read the newspaper.
Entertainment reporters are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, but Feng Xiaogang is not a fool.
People are shrewd.
Those were all guns that were fired during the release of the movie in order to expose traffic.
What's more, Zhou Yutang's status now is not just as simple as a new commercial film director.
The Jiangdong Entertainment he has mastered has become an existence that cannot be ignored in the entertainment industry, especially the variety show ace in his hand.
If you have a movie to be on in the future, maybe you have to beg to be on those popular variety shows to promote it.
"How's 'The Great Gold Heist'?"
"The casting is set, and you know the actor."
Ning Hao laughed: "Lei Jiayin, who is in the play, has appeared in your movies before."
Zhou Yutang's self-directed and self-starred debut work "Those Years", Lei Jiayin played a supporting role in it.
"Lei Datou's acting skills are okay."
Zhou Yutang also nodded slightly.
"Haha, why do you keep giving people nicknames?"
Ning Hao was drinking water, and when he heard the words, he couldn't hold back, and a mouthful of water squirted out.
Zhou Yutang chuckled: "His head is indeed very big. ”
Lei Jiayin graduated from the drama and was admitted to the Modu Drama Art Center with the first place.
He went to the magic capital to find Liu Shishi, and occasionally made an appointment with Lei Jiayin and the gang of people from the Drama Art Center, and everyone was also a friend.
"There is also a Guo Tao, this is also an old acquaintance, and he called me not long ago and said that he would let me form a bureau, and he wants to thank you."
"Forget about dinner, I'm too busy."
Zhou Yutang shook his head and said with a smile: "When are you going to start filming?" ”
"It'll be turned on next month, you have to make some money quickly, otherwise I'm sorry for the big dog."
Ning Hao also smiled bitterly.
The "No Man's Land" invested in front of me is still stuck, and now this "Gold Robbery" is the money paid by the big dog brother, Li Ming is indeed very righteous.
"I didn't win an award myself, and the Golden Horse Awards invited me to be a guest of honor, which is outrageous."
"The organizers of the Hundred Flowers Award also called me to be the guest of honor in the past."
"Then why didn't you go there?" Ning Hao's expression was a little surprised.
"Forget it, the Hundred Flowers Award doesn't mean much."
Zhou Yutang revealed his travel plan: "I'm going to go abroad next, and I have some personal matters to deal with. ”
Speaking of this Hundred Flowers Award, both of them were a little emotional.
At the beginning, one of the four major awards in the mainland was an award that represented the choice of the masses to some extent, but now it is in an embarrassing situation.
It turns out.
In the Celestial Empire, which has its own national conditions.
There are many people with great powers.
Zhou Yutang's script was submitted for approval all the way to the green light, and it was passed unimpeded.
Someone from the outside world soon got the news.
"Yu Tang, there is a bureau at night, many beautiful girls here are your fans, do you want to come and get together?"
Huayi's Wang Zhonglei's routine is very deep.
Don't mention the movie first, opening your mouth is to open the eagle party, directly hitting the weakness of the man.
Fortunately, Zhou Yutang had a firm willpower and politely refused: "Mr. Wang, I've been very busy lately, and I really don't have time." ”
Wang Zhonglei smiled at this time: "Is it the "League of Thieves" that you co-produced with South Korea?" ”
Zhou Yutang's eyebrows raised slightly: "Mr. Wang, I got the news so soon." ”
Then I exchanged pleasantries, but I still didn't agree.
Only then did he hang up Wang Zhonglei's phone, and Lu Zheng's phone also called, asking about film investment.
"Mr. Lu, Wanda can enter the game, but the share will not be too much, I want to connect to the back-end data center of Wanda Cinema Line?"
"Well, I'll help you get it."
At this time, the eight immortals crossed the sea, each with magical powers.
Zhou Yutang seemed to have become a fragrant dumpling, which immediately attracted everyone's scrambling.
"Shangying's share with Wanda can be reserved."
After dealing with a circle of friendship, Zhou Yutang rubbed the corners of his forehead, and had his own plans in his heart.
Wanda is the largest cinema leader in China, and the cooperation between the two sides is only beneficial, and to be a cat's eye, it is inseparable from this cinema leader.
He has a good relationship with Tian Ming, and he has some roots in the Shanghai circle, and he will also be useful to the Shanghai Film Group in the future.
As for Huayi, he is ready to wait until Huayi's shares are lifted, and he can cash out at a high level in the next few years.
It's November.
In the list of movie filings, information about "League of Thieves" appeared.
Director: Zhou Yutang.
Screenwriter: Zhou Yutang.
Main cast: TBD
The entire entertainment industry exploded.
Zhou Yutang is in the limelight, and there is no other one for a while.
Controlled by Jiangdong Entertainment and China Film, the new commercial film director Zhou Yutang who has just broken the box office record of the Celestial Empire films, is directed.
This crime action production with a total investment of 120 million yuan is still a co-production between the two countries, which has attracted the attention of countless people inside and outside the circle.
"Zhou Dudu is awesome, this time it's really a top-level big project."
"Looking at the news and breaking the news, it seems that South Korean actors are going to be used, is Zhou Gou going to South Korea to choose a concubine?"
"I want thigh times!"
"There's going to be a good show soon."
While discussing wildly on the Internet, Zhou Yutang was holding a meeting with Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun, Lu Zheng and others.
With "Big Man" in front of Zhuyu, the investment share of this film may involve a 9-figure box office share, of course, we must fight for it.
After an afternoon of meetings, an agreement was finally reached.
"Jiangdong Entertainment has a 40% share."
"China Film has a 20% share."
"Wanda's 15% share."
"15% share of the upper shadow."
"Emperor's 10% share!"
The results were relatively satisfactory to all parties.
Previously, Zhou Yutang made movies, especially like to control costs, and has always been small and big.
Needless to say, "Those Years" is a small-cost youth campus film with a return on investment ratio of more than ten times.
"Lone Agent" and "Big Man" include the cost of publicity, and the highest cost is 60 or 70 million in the sky.
This time it's a big production with an investment of 120 million.
Zhou Yutang really hasn't fought such a rich battle.
…………………………
"Rescue Mr. Wu" went to find Wu Ruofu, but it didn't come down.
This is all a psychological shadow of others, but the adaptation authorization was negotiated, and the script was renamed "Rescue Mr. Wu".
There are no special effects and big scenes in this movie, and Zhou Yutang is ready to hand it over to Wen Muye to try his hand.
has followed himself for several years, and has seen all the big and small scenes, and Wen Muye can gradually take charge of himself.
When he was at Gao Yuanyuan's house, Zhou Yutang called Wen Muye.
"Yu Tang, thank you."
"Your ability, no problem, I'll send you the script tomorrow."
"Okay!"
At night, Wen Muye, who put down his mobile phone, looked slightly excited.
During this time with Zhou Yutang, he really learned a lot.
Whether it's being a person or doing things.
For this junior brother who is a few years younger than him, he also respects from the heart.
Of course.
He also got the opportunity that many new directors dream of.
is about to direct the first film in his life.
Push open the window.
Take a deep breath.
Fresh air pours into the lungs at night.
Wen Muye seemed to feel that the bustling lights in the distance were lighting up for him.
