Chapter 353: A ship destined to sink, mature and beautiful
"The relationship between Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping is completely broken, and after "Thirteen Hairpins", the two will part ways."
This is a fierce news released by an industry insider who does not want to be named and knows the inside story.
The new picture of the key Zhang Weiping did not respond to this.
Then, Ms. Pang Liwei, the person in charge of Zhang Yimou's studio, announced the news: "Director Zhang Yimou's contract with New Picture has ended, and I choose not to renew the contract"
The entire film and television industry was in an uproar.
The era of the sixteen-year-old golden duo of the two pairs teaming up to dominate the movies of the Celestial Empire has finally passed.
"Boss Jia of LeTV Pictures wants to spend a sky-high price to sign Zhang Yimou."
"The two broke up, and the future of Zhou Dongyu, Ni Ni and other girls is uncertain."
"Zhou Yutang rushed to North America to meet Zhang Yimou in the middle of the night, and the new king and the old king in the film industry may join forces."
…………………………
The reason why Zhang Weiping was able to dominate the film industry of the Celestial Empire was only by relying on the trump card of the national teacher.
Now that the national teacher is gone, the new picture immediately lacks confidence.
This situation is similar to Mbappe's entry into the transfer market as a free agent in the football world, attracting the attention of many giants.
The major domestic film production companies are completely boiling.
Most small and medium-sized companies can only sigh and eat melons greedily, because they have no strength, they can't win the big Buddha of the national teacher.
Only those companies that are strong will turn their hearts into action.
All of a sudden, the eight immortals crossed the sea, each showing their magical powers.
"What do you mean by a late-night meeting?"
Zhou Yutang looked at the news headline that Yu Ji was very undisciplined, and was a little speechless.
Coincidentally, the high-end restaurant where he and Zhang Yimou met in the United States happened to be photographed by an international student and posted on the Internet.
Then there was an uproar.
Wang Changtian of the light also called and asked: "Yu Tang, are you also interested in signing Lao Mouzi?" ”
"Let's take a look first, I have a project in my hand and I want to hand it over to Director Zhang to do, and I'm also interested in light?"
"It's not easy."
Wang Changtian sighed: "Boss Jia of LeTV, this time he is determined to win." ”
"Not necessarily."
A slight arc appeared at the corner of Zhou Yutang's mouth.
Jia Yueting has made a lot of big moves recently.
After the establishment of LeTV Pictures, a large number of stars were brought in.
Zhang Yimou is the ceiling of domestic directors, and of course Boss Jia will not miss it.
Although Boss Jia has spent a lot of money to win the webcast rights of several popular dramas of Zhou Yutang, he has provided him with sufficient start-up funds for his dreams.
We had a good relationship, but there are no permanent friends in the entertainment industry, only eternal interests.
Boss Jia threw money to dig Xu Ming.
Zhou Yutang kept it all in mind.
This time fishing for the big fish of the national teacher, he will not give in.
The box office of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" inevitably showed a decline in the fourth week.
The ensuing premiere of "Counter War" took place in early January.
Zhou Yutang had to put down the post-production work of "Bouquet of Love" in his hand.
In fact, the shots of this movie are all in his head, filming during the day when he was in the crew, occasionally cultivating immortals at night, most of the editing work, and when this drama is finished, the rough cutting work has basically been completed.
Zhou Yutang and Huo Wenxi are also old friends and were invited to attend the premiere of "Counter War".
This time, Gao Yuanyuan also accompanied him.
Da Meiyuan is wearing a red tight-fitting dress today.
Flaming red lips and bright eyes.
Stepping on a pair of long black boots, the temperament is gentle and elegant, showing the charm of a mature woman.
This film is the key project of Yinghuang Group of the year.
Lin Chaoxian personally took charge of the direct, with a total investment of nearly 200 million.
Jay Chou and Xie Tingfeng starring big stars from Hong Kong and Taiwan, they are definitely the top productions in the industry of luxury casts.
Listening to Huo Wenxi, in order to shoot this drama, the crew went to Jordan, Malaysia, Tyrande, Vietnam, the Middle East and other places to film.
After the regular interview process, it quickly moves on to the film screening.
Zhou Yutang finished watching the movie, looked at Gao Yuanyuan beside him, rubbed his forehead, and asked sideways, "Sister Yuanyuan, what's wrong?" ”
Gao Yuanyuan covered her mouth with her hand, leaned over and said softly: "There are too many action scenes, it looks a little headache." ”
In this movie, the action scenes account for almost more than 80% of the time, and the street cars are just trivial, all of them are big scenes, and even military aircraft, tank cars, rocket artillery and other equipment are borrowed.
Street battles in Jordan, chase by airplanes in Kuala Lumpur, fierce battles on giant ships in the Indian Ocean, and gun fights in Putra
Director Lin also said in an interview that in one of the street shootout scenes in Malaysia, tens of thousands of live ammunition were used.
"I'm afraid, Boss Yang will lose this time."
Zhou Yutang sat with his legs folded, his fingers tapping lightly on his knees.
Lin Chaoxian's big-scene action scenes are well filmed, but the action scenes are too dense and the story plot is not solid, it is like fighting for the sake of fighting, and it is difficult for the audience to get into it.
However, here it is.
The scene still has to be said, the premiere is over, and I went to the cocktail party arranged by Yinghuang with Gao Yuanyuan.
met Zhou, who had not seen each other for a long time, Zhou Yutang smiled and stepped forward to say hello.
After finishing the 3rd season of "The Voice" mentor, Jay Chou withdrew from the "Voice" mentor lineup due to his busy personal schedule and inability to coordinate, and Haring took his place.
Since "Golden Armor", Zhou has also participated in several consecutive big productions, but the box office of the movie failed as expected.
Even the Hollywood "Green Hornet" did not make any splashes in China, and now this "Counter War" is a work that Jay Chou values very much.
met Zhou Yutang, and Zhou's eyebrows danced: "How do you feel after watching the movie?" ”
"Ouch, that's good."
“.”
Student Zhou's face was black, but he was still quite excited, and he also gestured: "I'll tell you, what do you build?"
"It's really enjoyable to shoot this film, and we specially invited military research professionals to teach us the posture of holding a gun."
"So professional?"
"Of course."
Jay Chou raised his eyebrows: "It seems that our company also has a movie to be released next, right?" ”
"Well, comedy, "Thai Embarrassment."
"I've seen it too."
Zhou said with a smile: "The movie played by Wang Baoqiao, "People in Embarrassment" is really funny enough."
"It's a pity that there is no movie starring you to be released, otherwise we will have another showdown, and I will definitely not lose."
"Good luck."
Looking at Classmate Zhou's dragged look, Zhou Yutang smiled and patted Classmate Zhou's shoulder, turned his head to say hello to Ning Hao and Xing Aina, and was directly pulled aside by the big dog brother to chat.
"Yu Tang, "The Great Gold Robbery" will be released in June next year, and "Border Storm" will be released in March, and the publicity plan will be handed over to you."
"Big dog."
Zhou Yutang really couldn't cry or laugh: "No, you are just like this?" ”
I've seen investors who pay people into the group.
I really haven't seen a film investor who only pays money, doesn't stuff people, and basically lets go.
However, this is also the style of the big dog brother.
As long as it is someone he believes in, he can give a lot of autonomy to the project.
"You do things, I don't worry."
"Still busy acquiring Digital Domain lately?"
"This is still being discussed, but there is another matter."
Brother Big Dog said with great interest: "That's the case, there was a bureau recently, Zhang Zhao pulled me to meet Wu Baige, there is a big movie project."
Zhou Yutang was stunned when he heard this.
It turned out that Wu Yusen was finally going to reappear after being silent for several years.
This master of violent aesthetics is a blockbuster.
Zhang Kou wanted to make a top production in the industry, and threatened to spend one to two years preparing the Oriental "Titanic", which shocked Zhang Zhao.
"Yu Tang, Boss Jia is very satisfied with this project, at present, LeTV Pictures has confirmed the investment, are you interested there?"
Brother Big Dog smiled: "My opinion, leave this project to you to operate, and when the time comes, we will directly kick Wu Baige out." ”
This is a bit domineering, it is obvious that in Li Ming's heart, Wu Yusen, an international director, is far less important than Zhou Yutang's weight.
This kind of thing has already been done once in "Sword Rain", and he also followed Zhou Yutang to eat meat.
It's just that Zhou Yutang couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard it.
"Forget it, big dog."
Zhou Yutang shook his head: "I'll come back after the New Year, and I will have to join the group in a short time." ”
"Your company's "Celebrating More Than Years"?"
"It's this drama, and then I'm going to do "Shocking Demon Thieves", and I really don't have time to take on other projects."
After a pause, Zhou Yutang finally spoke: "This "Taiping Wheel", I think it's better to be cautious and try not to participate."
Li Ming was slightly stunned.
He has been friends with Zhou Yutang for several years, and knows that Zhou Yutang would not say such things under normal circumstances.
Implication: Zhou Yutang is not optimistic about this project.
"I'll think again."
The big dog brother nodded thoughtfully, and his face was a little solemn.
The big dog brother is a good person and very righteous.
As a friend, if he can pull it, Zhou Yutang will naturally pull it.
I couldn't bear to see him on this ship that was doomed to sink.
…………………………
"Yu Tang, when will our movie be released?"
Gao Yuanyuan leaned her head on Zhou Yutang's shoulder, and asked softly.
"In April, you will set aside a promotional slot when the time comes."
Zhou Yutang's fingers gently combed Da Meiyuan's soft hair up to her shoulders.
The drama "Search" is a literary film, and the box office potential of the company's side is estimated to be less than that of "Bouquet of Love", so after going to China Film to see the schedule, it was arranged in the May 1st file.
The two hugged each other quietly on the sofa, talking about the little things in life and work.
Gao Yuanyuan has a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment.
The beautiful woman seemed to have a fragrance on her body, and Zhou Yutang got up after a while, and slipped in under Da Meiyuan's black sweater.
Gliding gently over the snow-like body.
The delicate curves bring an extremely warm and soft feel.
Gao Yuanyuan slapped his hand away and asked with interest: "You say, how much will the box office be in the end?" ”
"This, I don't know."
Zhou Yutang's eyes were deep and gentle, and he smiled: "I can only say that this is definitely one of the most amazing roles you have ever played, Sister Yuanyuan." ”
The bodies of the two were very close, and Gao Yuanyuan could smell the faint breath of the man, as if it was as warm as the sun in winter, pure and clean.
Emotional, she stretched out her hand and wrapped her arms around Zhou Yutang's neck: "Carry me to the bedroom." ”
