"Zhou, you really brought me too many surprises."

Natalie's mouth was almost closed with a smile.

If it is said.

At first, she was skeptical that Bob attached so much importance to Zhou Yutang.

So after the success of the "Human Removal Plan" project, she simply believed in Zhou Yutang more than she believed in her husband.

Her husband will also go out to find Xiao San and do film and television projects with Zhou Yutang, but he can create huge benefits and help her go further in her career.

"The Conjuring series, you are going to ask Wen Ziren to direct, it sounds like a good idea, when are you going to set up the project?"

"Don't be in a hurry, wait for the end of the "Human Eradication Plan" first, and slowly make a project cost budget."

Zhou Yutang shook his red wine glass, looked at Natalie with deep meaning, and said with a smile: "I think, you should understand what I mean." ”

"Of course."

Natalie was slightly stunned, but soon understood, opened her arms, and came to a close hug, and the enthusiasm was almost overflowing: "Zhou, please believe that you are the best friend of the new line company, and our cooperation method must be a win-win situation." ”

"Thank you for your cooperation."

Zhou Yutang raised his wine glass and touched it with Natalie with a smile.

New Line is a strong company with a wealth of experience in various types of film production, including horror films such as "The Butterfly Effect" and "Here Comes the Grim Reaper", both of which are classic horror series.

Zhou Yutang chose a new line and walked the old relationship with Zou Wenhuai.

First time working together, quite pleasant.

Bob also gave him a lot of say, including the script and the editing of the finished film, which made him feel very comfortable.

Today's "Conjuring" series will be a money-making work after "Human Removal Project".

But.

No contract for the time being.

Because the water is very deep on this side of Hollywood.

Especially in the accounting of movie dividends, you can play a lot of tricks.

A movie that is obviously a good hit, but it can be made at a loss through a series of operations, so that the management cannot get dividends.

So Zhou Yutang is ready to look at the situation first.

After seeing the dividends of the "Human Eradication Plan", make plans.

Cooperation is cooperation.

He doesn't trust these white people unconditionally.

Dealing with these old foxes.

There's nothing wrong with keeping an eye on it.

After chatting with Wen Ziren about the script of "The Conjuring", he handed over the matter to Zou Zhongyan.

Old man Zou's daughter, regardless of business, her professional ability is still excellent, and there is no problem with being Zhou Yutang's agent here.

Then.

Zhou Yutang took the flight back to China.

It takes about 12 hours to fly directly from New York to Beijing.

When he arrived in the capital, it happened to be night in the capital, and he thought he could escape the siege of Yuji, but he didn't want to have a bunch of media reporters with long guns and short guns at the airport.

"It's out! It's out! ”

Seeing the assistant next to Zhou Yutang coming out of the passage first, the sharp-eyed Yu Ji immediately recognized it.

Then, the impatient Yu Ji rushed up like a chicken blood.

Zhou Yutang listened to seven or eight questions that popped up together, because of the upside-down time difference, his head hurt a little, and he said helplessly: "You guys are too hard." ”

"Director Zhou, may I ask if the box office of "Human Removal Plan" is expected to exceed 100 million, what do you think?"

"It's really a surprise, I didn't expect such a result."

There were not many people in the evening, so Zhou Yutang simply accepted a wave of interviews.

"Mr. Zhou, are you going to start a Hollywood business?"

"At present, the key business is still in China."

"Mr. Zhou, what do you think about your affair with Blake Lively?"

"What scandal? I don't quite know. ”

"There's a picture of you going to dinner together."

"We were just friends, and we just had a meal together."

Zhou Yutang simply answered a few questions, a team of security guards was in place, and he decisively chose to flash people: "Tomorrow, the company will hold a press conference."

Fight your way out of the encirclement, get into the nanny car, and go straight home to reverse the jet lag first.

It's not that he doesn't want to manage his time, it's mainly that Zeng Li has been busy as a producer of "Border Storm" recently, and he has gone to Yunnan Province.

Da Meiyuan and Liu Tianxian have advertising shooting again, and they are in the field

"The evaluation of rural people is: Zhou Gou really knows how to play."

"People in the city also think that Zhou Yutang can play, and that one is one of the four little flowers in Hollywood."

"Zhou Yutang's vision is really worth believing, Blake Lively is very good-looking, and "Gossip Girl" is too beautiful."

"Well done! I support Zhou Yutang to win glory for the country! ”

"Upstairs, with Sissi, that is also to win glory for the country."

"I don't envy mandarin ducks, I don't envy immortals, I envy Zhou Dog every day."

Just came back from abroad and finished the jet lag, and the Internet was already full of discussions about Zhou Yutang's disturbances in Hollywood.

The industry pays attention to the box office sales of "Human Removal Plan", and most of the viewers who eat melons outside the circle are fun people, and they prefer to watch Zhou Yutang's lace news.

It's still about the scandal between Zhou Yutang and Blay Lively.

I don't know how those people got the photos.

The first picture is at the banquet, Zhou Yutang, who is in a straight suit, and Blake Lively, who is wearing a dress, are smiling and clinking glasses.

Another photo.

It's probably the paparazzi in Hollywood, and I took a photo of Zhou Yutang and Blake Lively going to the restaurant to eat together, Zhou Yutang was wearing sunglasses, wearing a casual outfit, Blake Cleverly T-shirt and hot pants, this girl smiled happily.

There are pictures and truths.

When the news came back to China, the media began to add material, saying that Zhou Yutang, who became famous in Hollywood, fell in love at first sight with this popular Hollywood little flower.

Yang Mi is still resting at home these days, and then she is about to join the group "Painted Skin 2", and when she heard that Zhou Yutang returned to the capital, she immediately attacked.

The two made an appointment for a meal, and during the banquet, Zhou Yutang touched her conscience and swore that she was absolutely innocent.

"Is it really just a simple friendship?"

"What are you lying to?"

"That's right, in fact, I'm asking for Shi Shi. Take it away."

Da Mimi was very satisfied with this answer, and slapped Zhou Yutang's hand away very unceremoniously: "I believe in you, and you didn't do anything to be sorry for Shi." ”

"Yu Tang, when will Shi Shi's "Step by Step Shocking" be broadcast?"

"It's coming."

Zhou Yutang glanced at Yang Mi's expression, and knew in his heart: "Yu Zheng asked you to come and ask?" ”

Yu Zheng's "Palace Lock Heart Jade" and Cai Yinong's "Step by Step Shocking" are actually similar competitors.

He is also capable, and before the later stage was finished, Mango TV saw some of the trailers first, and decisively won the premiere rights of this show.

So.

Mango TV has two Qing palace dramas in its hands, but which drama will be broadcast first is undoubtedly to take the lead.

"Nothing."

Yang Mi twisted her body: "I'm curious." ”

"It's already decided over there, "Step by Step" is about to start the drama promotion work, and it will be broadcast in June at the latest."

Zhou Yutang laughed softly and revealed the news.

After "The Legend of Zhen Huan" became popular, Xiangtai took a fancy to the market of Qing court operas.

This year, the two Qing palace dramas "Step by Step Shocking" and "Palace Lock Heart Jade" were collected in succession, and Zhou Yutang, who was the producer of "Step by Step" made by the Tang people, also has part of the investment share.

Zhou Yutang still has a different love for Liu Shishi, and at this time he has a close cooperative relationship with Mango TV, and he said hello to Mango TV in advance, and the resources over there will also be prioritized towards "Step by Step".

"That's right."

"You don't have to worry, the market for Qing palace opera is huge."

Seeing that Yang Mi's expression was slightly lost, Zhou Yutang laughed softly: "In a year or two, the popularity will not be low." ”

"In a year or two, will there be any policy?"

Yang Mi is very smart, and she seems to have heard something from Zhou Yutang's words.

"If only you had a good idea."

Zhou Yutang chuckled lightly and didn't say much.

Naturally, he received some inside information.

There's a meeting going on again.

It is estimated that by next year at the latest.

The control and review of this kind of Qing court drama will become stricter and stricter.

Even when doing costume TV dramas in the future, it is necessary to take into account the complexity of various conditions such as historical authenticity and cultural traditions.

Of course.

It's not that you can't make costume travel dramas.

It's just a different way of putting it mildly.

With the national conditions of the Celestial Empire.

As long as you have a background and a way, even if you make a movie with a ghost, you can release it.

"You're so powerful."

Yang Mi nodded suddenly, then thought of her purpose, leaned closer, and said in a greasy voice: "Yu Tang, can I ask you for a favor?" ”

"You want to be in Hollywood?"

Zhou Yutang didn't wait for her to speak, and refused politely: "The next project, I still use the actors over there, which is not suitable for you." ”

Long before Yang Mi, Fan Xiaopang, Li Binbin and other big flowers who had a good relationship with him had already directly or indirectly expressed similar ideas.

Zhou Yutang also said the same thing.

Whether it is the "Human Eradication Project" or the "Conjuring" series, they are horror films made for the North American market.

This kind of theme relies on creativity and atmosphere to attract the audience, and the drama is not popular, and it doesn't make much sense to play a supporting role.

"I'm not talking about that."

Yang Mi's body is getting closer and closer, and her unique sweet voice sounds like she is coquettish: "Yu Zheng said let me sing the theme song of the TV series, can you help me write a song?" ”

After a small reunion with Yang Mi, Zhou Yutang went to China Film Group.

Han Sanping was talking to someone in the office, he sat outside for a while, and Secretary Xiao Zheng got up to greet him and greeted him thoughtfully: "Mr. Zhou, congratulations on the box office hit." ”

Everyone who is a secretary is very discerning, and Secretary Xiao Zheng is no exception.

He has served Han Sanping for many years, and it can be said that he has seen Zhou Yutang grow bigger step by step, and it is precisely because of this that he admires him more and more in his heart.

Zhou Yutang was not in a hurry, just drinking the tea made for him by Secretary Xiao Zheng in the hospitality area outside, and chatting a few words by the way.

When the people inside came out, they saw that it was an old man who was humming angrily, and it seemed that he had come to turn his fate and was beaten back.

Looking at the shape of his mouth, he was clearly scolding ugly words such as "mountain carving".

"Mr. Han, dissipating gas and getting angry is not good for the liver."

"Hehe, it's not a big problem, some old men who are wrapped in corpses know to keep an eye on this support fund."

Han Sanping's face was also a little gloomy, but after seeing Zhou Yutang enter the door, it turned cloudy in an instant, and he smiled: "Yutang is here, come and sit." ”

Zhou Yutang was already surprised by the art of changing his face, and took the initiative to hand over the publicity plan discussed by the company: "Mr. Han, the publicity plan of "League of Thieves" has been made. ”

"Oh, I'll see."

Han Sanping put down the thermos cup, took the information and looked at it, and talked to Zhou Yutang about Hollywood.

While affirming Zhou Yutang's achievements, he also expressed his support in an encouraging tone.

Borrowing a boat to go to sea is a very popular argument in the domestic entertainment industry, and Hollywood is always high above the domestic entertainment industry, and it seems to be shrouded in a veil of mystery.

And Zhou Yutang's achievements over there undoubtedly inspired and enhanced Han Sanping's confidence.

"There is no problem with the plan, you can start doing it this month, and China Film will fully cooperate"

Han Sanping crossed Erlang's legs and quickly finalized the propaganda matter.

"League of Thieves" is aimed at the summer file, and the two-month publicity time is enough to push the popularity of this movie up.

"That's right."

As he spoke, Han Sanping seemed to think of something, and continued to speak: "Yu Tang, you received an invitation to this year's college student film festival, right?" ”

"Hmm."

Zhou Yutang nodded slightly.

The Beijing University Student Film Festival is led by the General Administration and hosted by the Film Channel Program Center, Beijing TV Station and the School of Art and Media of Beijing Normal University.

In the past few years, Zhou Yutang also received invitations, but either the itinerary conflicted, or he was busy with time management, and he had not been there yet.

This year, the General Administration directly issued a gold medal and asked him to be an image ambassador, Han Sanping also opened his mouth, and Zhou Yutang couldn't push it if he wanted to.

Looking at Zhou Yutang's reluctant expression, Han Sanping shook his head and smiled: "Sometimes, don't be too low-key, the achievements you have made are also worthy of recognition." ”

Last year, "Big Man", which set a box office record for Celestial Empire films, received many nominations, and even "People in Embarrassment" was nominated for a comedy creation award.

Then Han Sanping asked about her daughter again.

Entrusted by people, loyal to people.

Zhou Yutang has always been reliable.

After the Chinese New Year.

Proper arrangements were made soon, so that Han Jianu was named in the screenwriter and production department of Jiangdong Entertainment.

"On the company's side, there are many film and television projects, and Sister Jia participated in the screenwriting of "Please Answer 1997", and followed as the producer of a film project in the hands of Wen Muye."

Zhou Yutang said simply, and also affirmed Han Jianu: "Sister Jia's ability is very good, and if she accumulates a little experience, there will be no problem in doing projects in the future." ”

This is also seeking truth from facts, Han Jianu's personal ability is really good.

A little old man like Han Sanping, money and beauty are like clouds to him.

The one who asks for nothing but fame, and the children of future generations will become a weapon.

Zhou Yutang's praise this time hit Han Sanping's itch.

"It's far worse than you."

Han Sanping nodded with satisfaction and patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder: "In the future, you can bring her more." ”

Han Sanping at this time.

Mao suit, small flat head, squinting and smiling, the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes bloom by themselves.

Like a kind and amiable little old man in the countryside.

It's not like the domineering mountain carving just now
