Chapter 282: Free killing, uproar in the circle

After holding a meeting with the senior management of New Line and Warner to confirm the publicity plan before the release of "Human Removal Plan", Zhou Yutang then went to see the preparation and operation of "The Voice" in North America.

Of course, I didn't forget to go to see Guo Fan and the special effects artists who were left here by him to study, and invited everyone to have a meal together.

"Study hard, at the latest next year, Jiangdong Entertainment's special effects company will be established, and you will all be the backbone by then."

After painting a big cake for these people to boost their morale, Zhou Yutang returned to China.

Just landed.

I got the news that there were a bunch of media reporters blocking him at the airport.

"Xiaoyu, what's the situation?"

Zhou Yutang asked the assistant Mao Xiaoyu beside him.

This girl is a gossip expert, and she can always control the news in the entertainment industry as soon as possible.

Mao Xiaoyu handed over the mobile phone and said, "Boss, the news of your movie in the United States has been transmitted back to China, and there are scandals." ”

Warner used some resources to promote, and the work efficiency was also very fast.

Zhou Yutang just returned to China, and the first version of the propaganda poster over there had already been released.

Even Zhou Yutang only felt that his eyes lit up when he saw it.

A man wearing a blue suit in the same Star-Spangled Banner color as the United States.

A knife in one hand.

AK47 with the Stars and Stripes painted in one hand.

He wore a hideous goat-headed demon mask on his face, and the pupils behind that mask were as black as devils.

Behind this man's back.

It's a couple of criminals with different masks.

Everyone has a gun or a strange blade.

Fires broke out everywhere, and demons danced wildly.

Directly above the poster are two lines of English letters with a sense of design, "The Purge" and "Keep American greatest" stained with red blood.

It means:

Killing Day, let America continue to be great.

The fragrance of freedom comes to your face.

The date with flowers at the bottom is the specific date of the movie's release, and coincidentally, it is the same day as the killing day in the movie.

This is the propaganda plan made by the new line company.

It makes people feel creepy when they look at it, but it's also very exciting.

"It works well."

Zhou Yutang's thick sword eyebrows raised slightly.

Walked out of the safe passage with the team around me, took precautions, and put on a pair of sunglasses in advance.

The mountains of media reporters, the moment they saw Zhou Yutang, their excitement was completely detonated, and they pressed the shutter one after another.

The flash lights shone violently, and the tourists at the airport also came to see the excitement, and took out their mobile phones to arrest the wild Zhou Yutang as soon as possible.

There was a female tank entertainment who relied on her size advantage to get closer, and almost stuffed the microphone into Zhou Yutang's mouth: "Director Zhou, I heard that you have reached a cooperation with the new line company in the United States?" ”

"You're so well informed."

Zhou Yutang was in a good mood, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Another entertainer asked: ""Human Removal Project", the media over there announced that it is a thriller drama movie, will it be listed in domestic theaters?" ”

"Released in North America only."

"Director Zhou, someone photographed you walking out of the American Chinese restaurant with Liu Yifei, Li Binbin, and Deng Wendi, what is your relationship?"

"Everyone is good friends, and it just so happened that they also had an announcement over there, so they got together for a meal."

I have to say that there are not a few people in China who have great entertainment powers.

The new line company made a publicity plan, and the next day the news was obtained in China.

There is even a high-definition photo of him walking out of a high-end restaurant with Liu Yifei, Li Binbin, and Deng Wendi, which is estimated to have been taken with Deng Wendi's paparazzi with professional equipment.

As soon as he returned to China, Zhou Yutang was on the front page of the entertainment page, but many acquaintances also called.

"Sissi, is it really fake?"

As soon as Aunt Liu saw the news, she called her daughter: "Did he really make a movie with Warner?" ”

"It's similar to Warner's new line company."

Liu Yifei had a tsundere in her voice: "Mom, didn't I tell you when I came back a year ago?" Xiao Zhou: He started working with them before the Chinese New Year, and I was involved in this project at that time."

Helping to do translation work and printing materials, that is also a real participation, Adou also followed Zilong to kill Nagasaka Slope.

"When did you say that? How come I don't remember? ”

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, it seems to have been told to Changchang, hehe."

“.”

"Oh, Mom, I won't tell you yet, the assistant is calling me, let's start filming right away."

Listening to the busy sound from the phone hanging up, Aunt Liu's face darkened.

It's really a big girl.

used to accompany her daughter to run around and film in the crew, and when she encountered a little trouble, Liu Yifei discussed it with her as soon as possible.

In recent years, he has gradually rebelled and began to have his own ideas.

It seems to have started when he met Zhou Yutang.

Thinking of this name, Aunt Liu couldn't help but reverie in her mind.

No matter how much you call for wind and rain in the domestic entertainment industry, it is better to gain a firm foothold on the other side of the ocean after all.

It would be great if Zhou Yutang could really break into Hollywood.

You'll have to figure it out for yourself.

Why don't you invite him to dinner, probe the mouth, and pull the relationship?

Maybe.

Sissi will be able to get a chance then

"Mimi, the opportunity will not come again, the relationship between you and Mr. Zhou should have been the first to get the moon near the water"

Zeng Jia said bitterly in Yang Mi's ear: "Look at it, he has gone to Hollywood to develop now, what's wrong with Liu Yifei, in order to chase men, don't you also go down to Hollywood?" Zhou Yutang also introduced her to Deng Wendi, this is the wife of Hollywood media tycoon Murdoch, do you know it? ”

"This woman is very well-connected, Li Binbin just caught up with her line and got the resources over there, I think it is very likely that she is talking about cooperation with Zhou Yutang, and the movie that cooperates with the new line is a signal"

"Okay, Sister Jia, don't chant the scriptures."

Yang Mi was quite speechless: "I still prefer the feeling of natural progress." ”

"Fool."

Agent Zeng Jia also hates iron and steel: "People are more active than you, they are ahead of you, don't miss the opportunity."

"Honey."

While the two were talking, Yu Zheng came over with a glass of wine, took the initiative to toast a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the crew, I heard that you will have a movie soon, right?" ”

"Well, rest for a few days, and then I'm going to join the group again."

Yang Mi drank a glass of wine and nodded: "Mr. Yu, I also toast you, I will work overtime to shoot during this time, thank you for taking care of you, I hope our drama will be a big hit." ”

From this point of view, the two people are on the same side.

When Yu Zhengyan heard this, he laughed: "Mimi, I heard that you and Zhou of Jiangdong Entertainment are always alumni, and they seem to be very familiar friends, right?" ”

"It's okay, just a normal friend."

Yang Mi said vaguely.

It used to be okay when I was honored.

After joining Jiangdong Entertainment, I am often approached by the excessive enthusiasm of those people.

Yang Mi is very smart and knows very well in her heart that the enthusiasm of those people is definitely aimed at Zhou Yutang.

"That's right."

Yu Zheng opened his mouth directly: "There is one thing, can you go and ask Mr. Zhou." ”

Huayi Company.

Wang Zhonglei was holding a cigar, and just had a meeting to discuss the completion of the media conference of Long's "Zodiac", when he heard many high-level executives in the office talking about Zhou Yutang's news, he frowned and asked: "How did he get on the Warner line?" ”

"Zhou Yutang acquired Golden Harvest shares, and may have secretly reached a secret agreement with Golden Harvest's Zou Wenhuai, Zou Wenhuai is a partner with the major shareholder of the American National New Line, and since the new line was acquired by Warner, it still retains an independent production department.

Zhou Yutang seems to have been invited to talk about cooperation over there last year because of the copyright issue of variety shows, and under the guidance of Zou Wenhuai's daughter, he reached a cooperation with the new line company"

There are also capable people at the top of Huayi, and they have already figured out the news through various channels and reported to Mr. Xiao Wang.

"I can really do things, I have a "League of Thieves" in my hand, and it hasn't been finalized yet."

Wang Zhonglei shook the cigarette ash on his cigar: "Another "Human Removal Plan" has been created, this horror drama type film is his test of the waters over there, right?" Maybe it really opened the door to Hollywood for him."

has been overwhelmed by Zhou Yutang for several years in a row, and Wang Zhonglei always smiles when he meets, but he is naturally unconvinced.

Huayi is a leader in the entertainment industry, and during this year's Spring Festival, Huayi's gold medal director Feng Xiaogang's "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2", the box office was even trampled by Jiangdong Entertainment's small-cost comedy, and it was also shameless

Although Zhou Yutang holds part of Huayi's shares, Wang Zhonglei has always regarded him as his biggest opponent.

Right now, he's stepping into Hollywood with one foot.

The manager of the film department gave his own analysis and judgment: "The main thing is to look at the box office performance of that movie, if the market performance is not good, then the possibility of the two sides continuing to cooperate is very small." ”

"What if the box office blows out?"

Wang Zhonglei frowned, and he didn't realize that the cigar burned out, and muttered: "Can he really go to sea and dock on this ship?" ”

"Yu Tang, come on, come on, let's taste the taste of new tea."

China Film Group, the chairman's office, Han Sanping took the initiative to make tea for Zhou Yutang, and said with a smile: "How about it, the coffee in the United States, is there any tea from its own country?" ”

"That must be your own tea delicious, Mr. Han."

Zhou Yutang was about to speak, Han Sanping first came over with a bag and put it beside him: "I know that you like to drink tea, I have already prepared it for you, I originally wanted someone to send it to your company, but I think it is better to wait for you to come over to discuss the movie schedule and let you bring it back yourself." ”

"Mr. Han, you are so polite."

Zhou Yutang said politely, and accepted the hardcover bag very honestly.

Han Sanping sat down next to Zhou Yutang and said with a smile: "You made a lot of noise this time, why didn't you talk to me in advance, what the hell is going on?" ”

"I made a movie with the new line."

Zhou Yutang briefly described it.

Han Sanping was also very surprised, he only knew that Zhou Yutang had a trip to the United States of America last year, but he really didn't expect him to invest in a movie there quietly.

Although it's just a horror movie.

But there's more to it.

This is a film aimed at the North American market.

If it is successful, it means that Zhou Yutang not only has the ability to dominate the Celestial Empire film market, but also has the possibility of gaining a foothold in Hollywood.

"Mr. Han, my foundation is still in China."

Facing Han Sanping's earnest eyes, Zhou Yutang said euphemistically: "Hollywood is not attractive to me, I met a producer of New Line Company by chance, and I happened to have a script in my hand that couldn't be released in China, so I took it there and tried it."

"Hehe, I think you can make this project!"

"Borrow Mr. Han's auspicious words."

Then, the two chatted a few words, and the topic turned to the movie schedule.

Han Sanping took the production table from China Film.

The later stage of "League of Thieves" is completed in a hurry, and the next step is to determine the schedule, and then formulate a publicity plan.

This is a cultural cooperation project between the two countries, several hot schedules, and Zhou Yutang can choose at will.

If you want the box office to look good, the schedule selection is very important, and the May Day file is still almost meaningless, either the summer file, or the National Day file, or the Spring Festival file.

"How?"

Han Sanping took out the domineering spirit of a mountain carving: "Which schedule you like, whether it is an imported film or a domestic film, you can give way." ”

"Just the summer file, the National Day file has "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party", which is scheduled for July."

Zhou Yutang glanced at the film schedule and quickly made a decision.

"Good summer season."

Han Sanping nodded: "There is a Xingmei film, Chen Kexing's "Martial Arts", do you want to adjust it?" ”

"No, you don't."

Zhou Yutang smiled slightly, very confident: "Everyone competes freely." ”

Han Sanping nodded his finger and laughed along.

It's all in plain sight.

March's March-based film market was a bit deserted.

Fan Xiaopang's literary film "Guanyin Mountain" became a big winner.

After its release, the box office was 43.2 million in the first week, and it won 38.3 million in the second week.

According to this trend, it is almost a sure thing that the box office will break 100 million.

This is already commendable for a literary film.

Cheng Long's "Zodiac" also held a media conference in Beijing.

This is Cheng Long's 101st film, which was previously released through media releases, and is expected to produce an action blockbuster with a production cost of up to 300 million yuan, and the production team has formulated a shooting plan in 8 countries and regions in order to show the local customs more realistically.

As soon as the news came out.

There was an uproar in the circle.

Zhou Yutang was naturally invited to participate in this media conference.

Nothing else.

Cheng Long's idea for this film is very good.

Previously, he has always been very concerned about the loss of national treasures overseas, and once personally went to the auction of the head of the national treasure lost overseas, but unfortunately failed to do so, this time in order to fulfill his dream of bringing cultural relics back, so Cheng Long prepared the movie "Zodiac".

"Ah Tang, I'm sorry about what happened last time."

Brother Chenglong became more and more kind as he got older, and when he saw Zhou Yutang, he took the initiative to come forward and hugged him cordially.

"League of Thieves" had several starring candidates at the beginning, and Cheng Long was also one of them, but the conditions could not be negotiated at that time.

"There will be a chance to work together again in the future."

Zhou Yutang also didn't pay attention to it at all.

Standing in Cheng Long's current position.

Sometimes he represents more than just himself.

It's the interests of the entire group around him, and it's understandable to pave the way for his son.

Zhou Yutang glanced at the Dragon Prince beside Cheng Long.

It's a pity.

Adou can't help him.
