After the filming of "League of Thieves" ended, the editing process began.

During the period, Zhou Yutang took time to take Gao Yuanyuan, who had just returned from the crew, to participate in the celebration banquet of "People in Embarrassment".

"Yu Tang, you are here."

Xu Guangtou stood at the door waiting, and was on the phone, when he saw Zhou Yutang arrive, his eyes behind the lenses lit up.

quickly hung up the phone and greeted him with a smile on his face.

Seeing Gao Yuanyuan, who was intimate with Zhou Yutang, she immediately withdrew her gaze, and her attitude was as close as ever with a flattering meaning.

He is also an old man who has been in the circle for many years, so he naturally knows Gao Yuanyuan, and after a simple hello, he talked to Zhou Yutang with great interest about the things he encountered during the roadshow.

"Yu Tang, what do you say the sequel will do?"

"Don't worry."

Zhou Yutang shook his head and smiled: "The movies are still being screened, you come to the company for a meeting next week, and the screenwriting department is working on the script." ”

"Hehe, I didn't expect this movie to be so high at the box office."

Xu Guangtou touched his head, which was as bright as a light bulb, laughed twice, and began to habitually rainbow farts again: "In the end, it is Yu Tangling's unique vision."

“.”

Gao Yuanyuan felt a little numb, but Zhou Yutang had already developed resistance, and only smiled indifferently.

"People in Embarrassment" is directed by Ye Weixin and Xu Guangtou's deputy.

Now that Xu Guangtou knows that the embarrassing series is promising, Zhou Yutang sent him to direct the sequel, and it is estimated that his mind is full of progress, and he can't wait to start filming the sequel immediately.

Zhou Yutang is also happy to see it.

At the beginning, it was a small amount of money and a big thing.

The copyright of the embarrassment series is in his hands, and Xu Guangtou is also doing things for him.

There are people who talk and laugh with Xu Guangtou, and there are a bunch of acquaintances who take the initiative to come forward to say hello, and there are also people who are not very familiar but want to be close.

"Mr. Zhou, congratulations on your box office hit."

"Director Zhou, there is a chance to work together."

Like the stars and the moon.

Familiar or not.

These insiders all had kind smiles on their faces, and their eyes were about to overflow with envy.

Half a month ago, no one expected that "People in Embarrassment", a small-budget movie with a small volume, would achieve such amazing results in the end.

After winning the box office of 239 million in the first week, the box office trend in the second week weakened, but it still won the box office of 141 million, and it can be said that there is no suspense that the strongest dark horse of the year broke through 400 million.

400 million, compared with Zhou Yutang's highest box office record like a towering mountain, is a long way off, and it is not as amazing as "Let the Bullets Fly".

But this is stepping on the head of a group of strong opponents in the New Year stalls, and it can be ranked in the top ten of the year.

The most important thing is that this movie has a total investment cost of 10 million, but it can achieve such an ROI.

Zhou Yutang's investment was once again called a god in the film and television industry.

got out of the politeness and greetings, and asked Xu Guangtou to greet him, Zhou Yutang found Huang Xiaoming, who was talking and laughing with Qin Lan.

There is also a reason why Huang Xiaoming's connections are good.

Whenever there is a premiere of a big-budget movie in the circle, as well as some celebration banquets and other occasions, as long as he receives an invitation, he will go to the party.

Glancing at Qin Lan, who was holding Huang Xiaoming's arm in an intimate state, Zhou Yutang knew in his heart that these two people were only afraid that they would be reunited.

Qin Lan smiled generously and said, "Yu Tang, hello." ”

"Sister Qin Lan, hello."

Zhou Yutang also smiled and nodded: "Brother Xiao Ming, thank you for your hard work, you just came over from the Xiangjiang side." ”

"Your movie is a big hit, I'll come over and get some joy."

Huang Xiaoming smiled and hugged Zhou Yutang: "How did "League of Thieves" do in the later stage?" ”

"I'm doing it, I'm just here to be lazy tonight."

"Take your time, don't work too hard, your body matters."

Zhou Yutang chatted with this brother for a while, and was pulled over by the big dog brother again.

No way, he doesn't often attend gatherings in the circle, and even many acquaintances are rare to meet.

Tonight he is the absolute protagonist of this celebration banquet, so naturally he has received a lot of attention.

"Big dog, ponies have been gaining momentum recently, "Will Love" is a big hit at the box office, and PE funds are frantically scrambling."

"Haha, I'm all a small scene, it's not as good as you, a dark horse has killed through the New Year's stall, awesome!"

Big Dog smiled heartily: "Come, I'll introduce you to a few new friends." ”

Zhou Yutang only found out at this time that in addition to the signed director and screenwriter Zhang Yibai, Chen Ergou and others who were galloping on the horse, including the senior brother Chen Er, who was born in the film academy, and Zhong Lifang, the number one general under Brother Big Dog, was also there.

There are also many people in the capital circle, Wang Ran, CEO of Yikai Capital, Shi Libin, President of Tianchuang Film and Television, and others, all smiled at this time and came to congratulate them one by one.

"Congratulations to Mr. Zhou, the box office is a big hit."

It seems that the financing of the pony is going well.

Zhou Yutang glanced at it, and the big dog brother seemed to have some friendship with these capital circles, so he knew it in his heart.

Speaking of the "Border Storm", the two have communicated before, Jiangdong Entertainment and Pony Galloping each take 40% of the share, and the remaining 20% is from Yunnan Province.

Yunnan Province also brought a semi-official unit, and it was a big dog brother.

The big dog brother grabbed Zhou Yutang's shoulders and said with a smile: "Chen Er is looking for someone to ask me for, I can't be your master, you come to talk to him." ”

"Big dog, my schedule is over."

"If I don't look for you, I can't afford to pay for you if I want to."

The big dog brother made a joke, and everyone around him laughed too.

Now Zhou Yutang's coffee position is basically standing at the top of the pyramid of the entertainment industry, with a salary of 20 million yuan, and a box office profit share, which is equivalent to half of the investment in this drama.

Director Chen Er smiled: "Director Zhou, I want Zhang Songwen to take this book, can you help arrange it?" ”

"Zhang Songwen?"

Zhou Yutang was slightly stunned, and then nodded briskly: "No problem, how are the other characters looking?" ”

This is a good script, the actor is a flour seller, and he is also quite good at acting.

"Thank you Director Zhou!"

Chen Er shook his head: "It's not settled, but I want to find Ni Dahong to play a dentist." ”

"Ni Dahong is a good actor."

Zhou Yutang nodded slightly, the old Yan Song in "The Ming Dynasty" can be described as a three-point performance.

"Yu Tang, are you interested in making a big deal together?"

After chatting for a few words, seeing the mysterious appearance of the big dog brother, Zhou Yutang's heart moved slightly: "Is this going to be done?" ”

Brother Big Dog has said more than once that he is interested in special effects companies.

I also went to the United States to investigate Digital Domain, which is D2 Company, also known as the Digital Domain.

This is a special effects company founded by truck driver Cameron, which has done blockbusters such as "Titanic", "Terminator", "Lord of the Rings 1", "The Day After Tomorrow", "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", "Transformers" series, and won 7 Oscars, and the overall strength has always been at the top level in Hollywood.

"If you want to play, you can play big."

Brother Big Dog's eyes were full of ambition: "Yu Tang, what do you say, do you want to do it together, and directly spend money to acquire the digital field?" ”

This brother is estimated to have taken hundreds of millions of investments, and his speech is extremely tough.

Zhou Yutang shook his head and chuckled: "Now, the time is not ripe, wait another year or two, and the price will be at least 50% lower than now." ”

"Mr. Zhou, are you kidding?"

A CEO in the capital circle couldn't help but ask: "I got the news here, and I hired a professional management team over there to prepare for diversified development."

"Hehe, let's take a look."

Zhou Yutang smiled without saying a word, and did not explain much.

He wants to be a special effects company, and he has used a lot of resources to do background investigation.

Special effects companies are worth investing in, such as the domestic dragon elephant Taihe, Crystal, Base FX, Perfect, Viewpoint and other special effects companies are also profitable.

Outsourcing in North America, and even industrial light and magic projects have been handed over to China to do.

As far as D2 is concerned, the most valuable is nothing more than the special effects business that involves the core of D2 and the special effects studio in Canada.

…………………………

Come out of the celebration feast.

Qin Lan got into Huang Xiaoming's car and asked with some curiosity: "Aren't Zhou Yutang and Mimi a couple, why did you get along with Gao Yuanyuan again?" ”

Huang Xiaoming started the car, and his expression twitched slightly: "Is he with Yang Mi?" ”

"Probably not."

Qin Lan swept the hair around her ears and said casually: "But it should be a little ambiguous, I happened to be in Hengdian during the Chinese New Year, and when I went to visit Ban Yang Mi, I talked about Zhou Yutang, and I felt that her reaction was a little wrong."

“.”

Huang Xiaoming's hand shook, the steering wheel was crooked, and he almost hit the road on the side of the road.

Yu Tang, Yu Tang, you shouldn't call me brother.

I should call you brother, everyone is from the film school, why are you so showy?

"Because of love, you don't grieve easily, so everything is happy"

Zhou Yutang didn't drink tonight, so Xu Guangtou blocked it, Gao Yuanyuan drank a few glasses, leaned on Zhou Yutang's shoulder at this time, hummed softly, his cheeks were red, and he looked like a spring heart.

"Yu Tang, what's the name of this song?"

"You don't know the name, how can you sing?"

"I happened to hear the assistant's mobile phone ringing, and I thought it sounded good."

"It's really good, the song title is "Because of Love", and it is also the theme song of the movie "Will Love".

Zhou Yutang naturally listened to this new song sung by the queen princess and the instant noodle head Chen Yixun.

After its launch, it quickly exploded out of the circle and hit the top of the major music charts.

Xu Cainu's "Carry on Love to the End" is quite emotional, full of publicity, and it is also a strong rival of "People in Embarrassment" in the same period, after winning 18.7 million box office on the first day, it will collect another 23.4 million on the second day, and the box office trend is quite good.

In this film, Xing Aina participated in the screenwriting work, and Ning Hao also made a cameo appearance as a policeman in it.

Arrived home.

Zhou Yutang was lying on the sofa thinking about the special effects company.

Previously, he used a lot of resources and connections to send Guo Fan and other future special effects teams of Jiangdong Entertainment to the D2 headquarters to visit and study.

Guo Fan often sent emails to report to him, saying that he had met various technical experts over there and experienced the display and explanation of the latest technology.

He's like a sponge, greedily absorbing the knowledge of the most advanced technology over there.

Zhou Yutang plans to be a technical training institution, first to improve the technical level of Jiangdong Entertainment's special effects personnel.

Then start from the production tool level and cut into the global industry top.

Ultimately.

Foreigners are unreliable.

No matter how good things are abroad.

After all, it still depends on your own people.

Zhou Yutang's goal is to cultivate his own special effects power.

Watching the game at night was disgusted and slowed down for a long time
