Entertainment: I really want to make progress

"Aunt Liu, before you made this decision, did you investigate the data of the Xiangjiang entertainment industry?"

"If we look at the Hong Kong scene 10 years ago, it was indeed the pinnacle of Asia. However, in recent years, the entertainment scene in Hong Kong has declined. Especially this year, the number of Hong Kong film launches has dropped by at least 58% compared to last year."

"In short, from the perspective of a friend, I am not optimistic about Sissi's development prospects in Hong Kong."

Aunt Liu clenched her hands tightly and frowned.

What echoed in his mind were what Zhou Yutang had just said at the dinner table.

He casually reported several sets of data on the development trends of Xiangjiang's entertainment industry.

Well-founded and inspiring.

She finally realized that she had really underestimated this young man before, and she also understood that it was definitely not just luck that made him achieve such a career.

Zhou Yutang also did his homework in advance before coming to Hong Kong to film.

When he frowns slightly and talks seriously about things with his handsome face, he is really convincing.

Aunt Liu was so distraught that she got up and paced back and forth in the elegant box. She even lost her appetite for the exquisite Western food on the table and murmured:

"how so?"

"how so?"

"Yes, yes, Xiao Zhou, how could this happen? My mother was confused by you just now."

Liu Tianxian raised his little face slightly and looked at Zhou Yutang beside him curiously.

The two walked side by side in the manor clubhouse.

This high-end club was specially opened for some celebrities in Hong Kong. The security around it is very strict, so there is no need to worry about paparazzi taking photos here.

"If you tell your mother the specific reason, she might not believe it."

Zhou Yutang put his hands in his pockets and thought of Aunt Liu's efforts to express her own opinions during the dinner:

"Nowadays, big-budget films are still made by big directors in Hong Kong. There are more opportunities here, and film production is much more advanced than in the mainland. If we develop here, it will be good for Sissi's future development..."

Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed.

What is so noble about Hong Kong?

In a few years, all those crazy people will come to the mainland to beg for food!

What is the difference between Aunt Liu taking Liu Yifei to join the Hong Kong circle at this time and joining the national army in 1949?

But Zhou Yutang didn't think about continuing to persuade Aunt Liu, and Liu Yifei, who noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere, took her out for a walk.

In fact, everyone has their own fixed understanding of things.

This is a judgment based on one’s own social experience and understanding.

He only spoke the truth from the perspective of Liu Tianxian's good friend.

Teacher Chen’s meritorious deeds are truly immeasurable, and with one stick he broke away all the remaining luck in Hong Kong.

Nowadays, big players in the Hong Kong circle with big ideas like Boss Yang are aware of the trend and are running towards the mainland.

Few people know that Yinghuang Group has opened a branch in Beijing, which is said to be handed over to Huo Wenxi. It has also reached a strategic cooperation agreement with China Film Group.

Why did Boss Yang come to see Zhou Yutang two days ago?

It's because he has good projects in hand.

The next few episodes of "The Voice" were aired, and the response became more and more enthusiastic. The ratings went straight to break the three major levels, and Mingjie Company became famous in the circle.

Boss Yang has great eyes and hands, and he has his own channels to know that Zhou Yutang is the driving force behind this music variety show. Yinghuang wants to gain a foothold in the mainland, so his attitude towards him is naturally different.

"Xiao Zhou, you seem to have a problem with those Xiangjiang directors? You said they have made many classic movies, why are they suddenly no longer good?"

"Because there is a cultural generation gap between the people in Xiangjiang and the mainland audience. Most of the so-called great directors in Xiangjiang still have a superior mentality and look down on the mainland. They all think that if they film the old-fashioned stuff in Xiangjiang 10 years ago, there will be people. They bought into it, but they didn’t expect that the development in the Mainland was so fast that it was beyond their understanding.”

"The films they make are not recognized by the market and cannot make money, so they will naturally be abandoned by capital."

Zhou Yutang looked at Liu Tianxian's innocent little face and patiently explained to her.

"Xiao Zhou, you know so much."

Liu Yifei chuckled, suddenly touched him with her elbow, and said somewhat reservedly: "You didn't dare to look at me just now, now you can look at me openly, how about it, I bought this outfit today with my mother while shopping in Xiangjiang. Does it look good?"

"?"

A question mark slowly appeared on Zhou Yutang's face, and he turned around to look.

Today, Miss Liu is wearing a green bottoming shirt on her upper body and a pair of light blue jeans on her lower body. She has a silver belt tied around her waist. She puts her hands behind her back and stands on tiptoe wearing white leather boots. shake.

Zhou Yutang really couldn't complain.

If it weren't for this innocent and invincible face, this outfit would really be inferior to that of a village girl.

"Did your mother match it for you, or did you match it yourself?"

"I matched it myself."

"Hahahahaha!"

"why are you laughing?"

Liu Yifei's little face wrinkled, and she felt that this guy was smiling sarcastically, and her mood suddenly fell to the bottom. She swung her pink fist and wanted to punch Zhou Yutang Bangbang twice.

Zhou Yutang had been sparring with the Thai boxing champion some time ago, and his reaction speed was exaggerated, and he easily got past him in a flash.

"You, you, you, stop!"

"Sissi, I really have no other intentions. How about you ask Aunt Liu to match your clothes in the future?"

"You're done! Zhou Yutang!"

Listening to Liu Yifei's murderous voice, even Xiao Zhou stopped shouting. Zhou Yutang started walking quickly without saying a word. After walking a few steps, he heard an "ouch" from the girl behind him.

He sat down on the ground and rubbed his feet.

A look of pain on his face.

Zhou Yutang was doubtful and stood outside her attack range: "Is your foot sprained?"

"Uh-huh!"

Liu Yifei's delicate little face was wrinkled up, which really made me pity her.

"It hurts?"

"A little."

"Can you walk? I'll help you."

Zhou Yutang saw that she didn't seem to be faking it, because how could an immortal have such acting skills?

I helped Liu Yifei to stand up, but as soon as her right foot touched the ground, she started to ouch and her face turned pale in pain. It seemed that she was not just faking it.

Zhou Yutang relaxed his vigilance and just bent down to help Liu Tianxian up. She put her hands on Zhou Yutang's neck and climbed onto his back in a swish. A pair of long and slender legs were tightly clamped around his waist.

The soft touch on his back made Zhou Yutang a little distraught, and he said helplessly: "I thought you were trying to trick me, saying that I caused you to sprain your feet and had to carry you back."

"My ankle is really sprained. Please carry me back."

"Come on, what you did just now was faster than Liu Xiang."

"Anyway, I won't go down if you don't carry me."

"."

Feeling something soft and swaying on the back, Zhou Yutang helplessly held Liu Tianxian's plump thighs and walked forward with her on his back.

Liu Tianxian suddenly asked with a little voice: "By the way, Xiao Zhou, when you were just eating, you said there was something you wanted to say to me, what was it?"

"Oh, I almost forgot."

Zhou Yutang pushed Liu Tianxian up and said, "My personal advice to you is, if you want to further your acting career, it's best to ask your mother not to be your agent."

"Why, my mother does everything for my own good!"

Liu Yifei's voice on the back was full of doubts.

"Sometimes it's difficult for family members to make professional and rational judgments. Of course Aunt Liu is doing it for your own good, but her way of doing things will invisibly offend many people."

Zhou Yutang couldn't directly say that Aunt Liu's professional ability was insufficient, so he used a euphemistic way of saying it.

From what I learned from my relationship with Cai Yinong, when Tangren Film and Television was filming Fairy Sword, they also wanted to sign Liu Yifei.

It's a pity that Aunt Liu's vision is too high. Of course, maybe due to the influence of the godfather, she doesn't like Tangren Film and Television, which only produces TV series. As a result, Mr. Cai became depressed every time he mentioned this matter.

"Then you mean to tell my mother not to be an agent?"

"You can set up a studio and ask professional people to help you run it. Your mother will take care of your clothes. Oh, no, she will be responsible for your daily life. I remember you said that you want to be a good actor in the entertainment industry. Bar?"

"Well, my mother's dream is for me to become an international star. My idols are Audrey Hepburn and Vivien Leigh!"

"Then how do you think your acting skills compare to Vivien Leigh?"

Zhou Yutang asked a very sharp question, and immediately felt the delicate hands around his neck tighten: "I feel that at your age, you have already got something that many people will never get in their lifetime."

"If you really want to go further as an actor, you have to have a solid background. Only when the role you perform is persuasive can you be recognized by the audience. You can act in the show yourself. In order to enrich your experience, you must continue to work hard. Reading, it’s good to pretend to be ugly for the sake of filming, but have you ever found that no matter how hard you try, there always seems to be a gap between the characters you present and the real people?”

"."

Liu Yifei behind her was silent for a long time before she asked: "Why?"

"You are a bit pretentious when acting, and you also have big problems with your lines. Your speech tone is very soft, with a heavy breath."

"Really?" Liu Yifei seemed a little surprised.

"You may not feel it yourself, and it may not be so obvious when filming a TV series, but when you are filming a movie, you often need the characters to deal with complex emotions. If your emotions cannot keep up with your voice and body, it will appear tense. If it’s not enough, it will lead to a sense of separation between you and the character, and the audience will get upset when they see it.”

"You can practice your lines. Did you know that Mr. Zhang Songwen is from Cantonese? When he first came to the film school, he had a very obvious Cantonese accent. He also encountered many difficulties. He just put a few pebbles in his mouth. Here, practice retroflexion and take it wherever you go.

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, he read his lines loudly on the playground. What do you think of his line skills now? "

"I have never taken Mr. Zhang's class, and I have never seen him act."

Liu Yifei said weakly.

"Oh, I forgot that "Insidious" hasn't aired yet."

Zhou Yutang pushed Liu Tianxian, who was gradually sliding down, up a circle: "Then remember to watch Beijing Satellite TV after a while, and you will know how good Mr. Zhang's line skills are."

"I will definitely watch it, so do I have to practice my lines with stones in my mouth?"

"You also want to make progress?" Zhou Yutang asked happily.

"Of course, I want to become a better actor and let more audiences accept me. Do you have any suggestions?"

Liu Tianxian lay on Zhou Yutang's back, and a soft and pleasant voice came from his ears. It could be heard that this girl was very serious.

"Teacher Zhang Songwen is the performance instructor of my studio. I'll ask him to help you take a look, or you can also participate in some theater performances."

Zhou Yutang talks about people when he sees them, but talks about ghosts when he sees ghosts.

Tell the truth when you see Liu Tianxian.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

Without that ability, even if she were asked to act in a big production, would she be convincing?

There are not so many fairy sister roles for her to play that suit her.

Liu Tianxian may have worked hard at acting, but his dialogue skills are really not good.

Some things are not enough just through your own efforts.

Not everyone has the talent of Master Zhou. If most actors in the industry want to improve their acting skills, they can only go through systematic training in a down-to-earth manner.

Just like Zhang Songwen, he cannot be said to be a top talent, but through his own observation and understanding of life, coupled with constant practice, he has honed his acting skills to a very high level.

Zhou Yutang learned a lot from teacher Zhang Songwen.

I also believe that Zhang Songwen, who has been working hard for several years, will soon become a blockbuster.

Then surprise everyone.

The walk from the clubhouse garden is short.

Soon the restaurant is in sight.

Liu Yifei lay on Zhou Yutang's back, suddenly feeling a little reluctant: "It's coming so soon."

She looked at Zhou Yutang's superior cheek curves, biting her lips and trying to get closer, but every time she got closer, the courage she finally mustered up suddenly disappeared, and she was so flustered that she didn't know what to do.

"Sissi, you guys"

Standing at the door, Aunt Liu's pupils were shaking. From a daze, she gradually stiffened, and then turned to shock, with an extremely wonderful expression.

"Oh, Auntie, Sissi sprained her foot. I'll carry her back."

Zhou Yutang explained and put Miss Liu down.

"Why are you so careless?"

Aunt Liu was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses immediately, walked up eagerly, supported Liu Yifei nervously, and asked with great concern: "Sissi, does it hurt?"

"Take off your shoes and let mom see if it's serious."

"I'll take you to the hospital."

have to say.

Although Aunt Liu's operation is a bit showy, there is no doubt that she cares about Liu Tianxian.

Growing up, mother and daughter have relied on each other. This kind of relationship may be difficult for children who are not single-person families to understand.

It was Aunt Liu's 365-degree care over the years that prevented Liu Yifei from being exposed to too many dark sides of the entertainment industry.

After the jade was returned to Zhao, after confirming that Liu Yifei was fine, Zhou Yutang said goodbye in a discerning manner.

Aunt Liu was still uneasy and said that she had bought a very effective medicinal wine for bruises in Xiangjiang and planned to put some on her daughter.

"Mom, I'm really fine!"

Like a medical miracle, Liu Yifei jumped on the spot twice to prove herself: "Look, it doesn't hurt at all."

"It really doesn't hurt anymore? Then what did you just do?"

Aunt Liu's thoughts changed and she sighed softly: "You just took a long walk, what were you talking about?"

"Mom, you asked me about this. I just have something to tell you."

"What's up?"

Aunt Liu felt that her daughter was a little strange, with a serious expression written on her little face.

"Mom, I think Xiao Zhou is right. It doesn't make much sense for me to come here to act. I want to find a professional teacher to teach me my line skills and then try to act in a play."

Miss Liu's clear eyes were full of light, and she said firmly: "There is a very powerful teacher Zhang Songwen at Xiao Zhou's side. He agreed to help me and asked if you can help me contact the theater."

"How could you have such an idea?"

Aunt Liu was a little stunned, and wanted to persuade Miss Liu in her own way: "With your current fame, you no longer need to learn those things. If you want to go further, you have to take on big-budget movies from big directors."

Liu Tianxian said stubbornly: "I think what Xiao Zhou said makes sense. I just want to make progress."

well!

The rebellious period is here!

The so-called knowledgeable daughter is Mo Ruomu, and Aunt Liu is a person who has experienced this, so she can understand Liu Yifei's little thoughts.

Aunt Liu opened her mouth, knowing that if she continued this topic at this time, it would probably turn into a quarrel, which was a situation she did not want to see.

"Then wait until mom gets back and ask for you."

She could only agree, and Aunt Liu said tactfully: "Sissi, mom knows what you think. It's normal to have someone you like during adolescence, and Zhou Yutang is also very good."

"Mom, what are you talking about?"

A blush instantly appeared on Liu Yifei's crystal-white ears, but she still said harshly: "Who likes him? What's the difference between me and Xiao Zhou?"

What's wrong with this?

You're already lying on someone's back. If I don't come down and take a look, will you all be kissing me later?

Aunt Liu's blood pressure soared, and she said earnestly: "Sissi, Mom is here, and she has experienced more things than you. In this circle, there are too many temptations. Zhou Yutang is excellent, but because he is too excellent, there are always people around him. The woman he pursues is definitely not a good match."

Finally, there is a classic stage summary: "Listen to me, you must be right."

"alright, I got it."

Liu Yifei listened to Aunt Liu's chatter and nodded obediently on the surface, but she felt a sense of rebellion in her heart.

Under the long eyelashes, the clear eyes are determined to have their own way.

Growing up, I was very obedient.

Only this time, I want to be willful.

"The ratings of these episodes of "The Voice" have steadily increased, with the average ratings reaching 2.8%, and the highest ratings reaching 3.5%. According to this trend, it will be a matter of time before the average ratings of the show exceed 3."

"How's the online copyright communication going?"

"Boss Jia of LeTV Video spent 100 million to exclusively buy out the copyright for this season."

"Mr. Jia is very generous."

"Haha, Fatty Jia has a very loud tone, and it's quite fun to make money. Yu Tang, you are right. "The Voice" will be a national-level variety show. The first money from the TV station has already been transferred to the company's account. Up."

"So fast?"

Zhou Yutang sounded surprised.

He has also collaborated with TV stations several times in TV series.

Generally speaking.

When cooperating with TV stations, the payment cycle there is at least 6 months.

Some TV stations have gone too far and will even deliberately hold back payment for more than a year. If you ask, the process has not been completed.

But Tian Ming’s background is here.

The magic city is all his own.

So he was able to complete the process in such a short time, allowing the TV Tower to spend money easily.

Zhou Yutang also realized what it means to have someone in the court to do things easily.

"Yu Tang, it's your idea that makes this show so beautiful. Counting the subsequent dividends, we made at least 120 million in less than half a year!"

Tian Ming's tone was filled with admiration: "What do you think is going to happen next?"

In this short half year.

Not only has Zhou Yutang's career taken off, but Tian Ming as a partner has also soared.

Mingjie Company became famous in one fell swoop. Tian Ming, who is standing on the stage, has already won the recognition and praise of several elders in his family after making such outstanding achievements.

And all this.

All because it is based on cooperation with Zhou Yutang.

"Brother Ming, you are still in charge of the show. Just follow this rhythm and maintain the reputation. It will not be a big problem to make it a national variety show.

There is one more thing I want to tell you. If other countries come to inquire about the copyright, the asking price does not need to be too high. One or two million can be given. The important thing is to sign a betting contract with the other party, and additionally it is linked to the ratings of the program. Floating terms for dividend income”

Zhou Yutang and Tian Ming exchanged views on the future layout and development of "The Voice".

The cooperation between the two people is very tacit and the division of labor is quite clear.

Zhou Yutang planned and controlled behind the scenes, while Tian Ming charged in front of the stage.

With his sky-high background covering him, he can naturally do anything to his detriment.

"Are you interested in the dividends from foreign programs?"

Tian Ming is indeed a veteran in variety shows, and he quickly understood Zhou Yutang's intentions.

"Yes, it is estimated that some countries in Asia will come to ask questions soon. When the time comes, you can come and negotiate. Once the agreement is reached, send people over there to supervise and guide. I think it will be very promising."

Zhou Yutang told Tian Ming his thoughts.

Magic City TV seems to be making a lot of money, but the real program copyright is still in the hands of Zhou Yutang.

In fact, the essence of the program "The Voice" lies in the voice and blind auditions. It is not difficult to copy it, just get a few swivel chairs.

Moreover, if it is copied by foreign countries, it will be very troublesome to file a lawsuit. In this case, it is better to sell the copyright quickly and sign a floating sharing contract linked to the ratings.

This type of variety show is still very popular abroad. After the original version of "The Voice of Holland" was broadcast, it attracted 18.2% of the total population of the Netherlands, which is nearly one-fifth of the country's population. It was introduced to Britain immediately became the most successful entertainment program in the UK, with an average of 9.2 million viewers per episode and a market share of 38.5%. It also topped the ratings list in the United States.

simply put.

The emergence of this novel music variety show model is completely indiscriminate.

Therefore, pursuing a royal approach in China, building a reputation as a national variety show, and then operating the foreign copyright management of "The Voice" will not only enhance its international influence, but even make more money.

Plenty of dollar bills seemed to be exuding an alluring aroma.

As long as a viewership sharing contract can be negotiated, even if it is only 10%, Zhou Yutang will earn unimaginable astronomical figures.

Ended the call with Tian Ming.

Zhou Yutang smelled a sweet scent like orchid.

The soft-bodied Hong Kong girl Wen Yongshan leaned forward and offered a sweet kiss.

As cute as a cat.

You can also see the light of adoration reflected in her eyes like a sea of ​​stars.
