Entertainment: I really want to make progress

Zhou Yutang directly posted the essay on his blog.

Now his blog has very high traffic and the accumulated clicks have exceeded 100 million.

It is only slightly inferior to the early blog queen Xu Jinglei and similar to Han Han.

certainly.

The blog only has high traffic, but in terms of combat effectiveness, the 250,000 Jiangdong naval forces in Zhou Yutang's post forum are the most powerful.

In the early days, the Baidu Tieba community was quite fierce. When the Emperor Bar went out to fight, not even a blade of grass grew. Even the popular Super Girl Champion Li Yuchun Bar was maxed out.

The blog post was quickly forwarded to his personal post by fans.

It caused a great response.

The number of fans in Zhou Yutang's personal post bar is far higher than that of Bu Shenba, but his fighting power is also quite strong, so he chose to start charging directly that night:

"It's rare to see a governor get angry."

"Lu Chuan is such a stinky fish and rotten shrimp. If you dare to offend the governor, you should die!"

"You are a man of great ambition and talent, who deceives the world and steals your reputation. Now you are still whitewashing the Japanese invaders. Are you really a human being?"

"The media boasted that he has the potential to become a film master. He wouldn't really believe it, would he?"

"The Governor said it well. Lu Chuan wants to use such a heavy subject for speculation, which is simply disgusting!"

"Please, stop scolding me, or Director Lu will cry again."

The result is no doubt.

Lu Chuan’s blog and social media were directly destroyed.

Even Lu Tianming, an old-school literati who posted a few blog posts in support of him, was affected and driven into isolation.

This incident caused quite a stir, and in terms of impact, it was much more lively than the verbal spat between Han Han and the literati in 2006.

At that time, the dispute between Han and Bai was limited to the literary world. The literary circle was very small and its influence was naturally not as strong as that of the entertainment industry. Moreover, Zhou Yutang's "The Lonely Agent" is now a real phenomenon-level hit movie.

Also at this time.

Lu Wei, the top screenwriter in the industry, also stood up and spoke out: "To this day, the Neon people are still covering up this period of history from their own people. Lu Chuan's thoughts are also distorting history like the Neon people, so that they are upside down. , a film that arbitrarily sticks to the theme, I only ask, after you die, how will you face the 300,000 dead souls? How will you face the hundreds of millions of people who are still crying in their hearts?"

He is worthy of being a gold medal screenwriter. Every word is so inspiring that he directly tears off the last fig leaf from Lu Chuan's face.

Immediately afterwards, another big shot in the film and television industry, Zheng Xiaolong, also followed suit: "Lu Chuan hastily started making blockbusters without even understanding basic common sense, conscience and narrative skills. He is too utilitarian. The values ​​of "Nanjing, Nanjing" are absurd, and its narrative angle is too It’s chaotic and incredible.”

Jiang Wen did not want to be alone and posted: "In the process of interacting with Neon people, especially Neon young people, I found that there are many Neon right-wingers who deny the crime of invading China, and they are not a group of people as we often say. A small group, just a small group jumping up and down there. If we don't realize this, we are not facing up to the powerful opponent of neon.

Another bad tendency is that some of our literary and artistic works often apologize to the Chinese people for the Neon people. I don't understand Lu Chuan's "Nanjing!" Nanjing! 》What exactly do you want to express? "

All of a sudden.

Lu Chuan seems to have become a street rat that everyone shouts about.

Zhou Yutang finished posting his blog and had a clear idea.

He rarely trolls people unless he can't help it.

I felt quite happy after spraying it, and it was considered a response to Lu Chuan’s essay.

then.

Zhou Yutang did not mention this matter in front of the media.

If I mention it any more, it will make Lu Chuan more popular.

Han Sanping quickly contacted Zhou Yutang with good news.

"Mr. Han, don't joke with me. Are you really a great leader?"

"I'm really not kidding. Lu Chuan got smart and made things bigger this time. The big boss has spoken. "Nanjing" is expected to be released in a few days."

"What did you say?"

"Don't say anything that is not conducive to unity."

"."

After listening to Jun's words, Zhou Yutang felt that his thoughts had been baptized and his realm had improved a lot.

This is the significance of co-production between the two places.

His "Secret Agent" hired a lot of actors from Hong Kong, and the crew had a lot of people in charge of photography and lighting.

There are several layers of BUFF.

It's not that Zhou Yutang expected someone like Lu Tianming to jump out in advance.

It's just how he is used to doing things.

Keep a courageous and diligent mind and act like walking on thin ice.

That’s why we have progressed from nothing to where we are now.

Strictly speaking, if "The Lonely Agent" is shot in the Mainland, there is a real possibility that it will not pass the review, or that a lot of content will need to be deleted.

Therefore, the several layers of buffs that Zhou Yutang had superimposed in advance were equivalent to creating an invincible golden body for him.

Lu Chuan was killed by the power of magic this time.

But strictly speaking, there are real problems with his movie.

And the problem is huge.

……………………

On May 1st, the box office of "The Lonely Agent" bucked the trend, with actual revenue of 51 million!

On May 2nd, the box office grossed 48 million!

On May 3rd, the box office on that day was 46 million!

The three-day May Day holiday set off a movie-watching frenzy, with the total box office of "Alone" reaching 145 million.

Fatty Wang's "Empire of Money" was released on May Day, with only 3 million on the first day, and a box office of 7 million in three days during the holiday.

At this time, the theater chain received the news from above that Lu Chuan's movies had been gradually removed from the shelves.

And Zhou Yutang's "Lonely Agent" has a film schedule of more than 75%.

This is almost the same treatment as the National Master received when "The Golden Armor" was released.

God blocks and kills God!

Under such favorable conditions of the right time, place and people, the 340 million box office of "If You Are the One" was directly broken without any suspense.

Less than half a month after its release, "The Lonely Agent" has successfully exceeded 400 million in box office, breaking the box office record of Chinese movies!

Suddenly, the circle shook.

Feng Xiaogang couldn't sit still.

His "If You Are the One" box-office champion didn't sit well with him, and he was immediately dethroned by Zhou Yutang.

And this is still in hot release, and there is still a certain potential that can be tapped.

This kid wants to go to heaven! ?

The little steel cannon was so itchy that he took his wife into the cinema to watch it again.

When coming out of the cinema, Feng Xiaogang asked Xu Fan: "How did you feel after watching this movie?"

At this time, Xiaogangpao was still a very down-to-earth director.

Regarding the understanding of movies, he has always believed that the audience's viewing experience is the first priority.

That's why Xu Fan was asked to talk about the experience and perception from the perspective of a movie viewer.

"Zhou Yutang's performance is really good."

Xu Fan seemed to be still recalling the highlights in the movie and said with emotion: "Well, this movie made me feel very happy."

"Does it feel good?"

Feng Xiaogang nodded slightly, as if he was deep in thought.

Xu Fan's expression was slightly excited: "It's not just an action movie, but some of the details in the movie are well done, the plot is very touching, and there's also Zhou Yutang's acting skills and explosive power."

Xu Fan pulled Feng Xiaogang's sleeve and brought him back to reality, "Old Feng, what did you say?"

"What else can I say?"

Feng Xiaogang shook his head helplessly: "There are no sophisticated techniques in this movie. It can be shot with a dog! The key is Zhou Yutang!"

"If someone else had starred in this movie, even Jackie Chan would not have had such a high box office. I heard Zhang said that he made the script for this movie himself. This guy is really a monster."

"That's true."

Xu Fan couldn't help but be happy.

It's not that Jackie Chan's acting skills and action scenes are worse than Zhou Yutang's.

But the style is different.

"Agent" is not an ordinary action movie. When Zhou Yutang turned into a thug in a suit and transformed into a killing weapon, he relied on his good looks and temperament to make this action drama look like a fashion blockbuster. It's a unique feeling.

Xiaogangpao is a very smart person.

He is also a very capable director.

Otherwise, he would not have climbed from an ordinary alley boy to his current position as one of the three major directors in the country.

"Fuck."

Touching his own crew cut, Feng Xiaogang bared his teeth and said, "It's only been half a year since I was proud of myself, and yet my golden body has been ruined. The key is that my mother really didn't lose unjustly. Dasha X named Lu, what kind of movie did he make?" Damn it, the right time, right place, right people and everything are on Zhou Yutang’s side, I think it’s a sure thing that the box office will exceed 500 million in the end.”

A layman looks at the excitement, an expert looks at the door.

On the way home, Xiaogangpao dismantled the movie with a little excitement and learned the reasons for its success.

Xu Fan looked at the man beside him, shook his head and chuckled.

Based on her knowledge of Xiaogangpao, not only is he looking higher than his head, but he can also be said to be looking down on the film industry.

Feng Xiaogang is no longer the cautious Feng Xiaogang he was before.

But even such an arrogant little steel cannon can give such an evaluation.

This young man is truly amazing.

……………………

"Mr. Zhou, congratulations on the box office exceeding 400 million."

Walking into Mingjie Company, employees kept congratulating Zhou Yutang respectfully.

Everyone knew that this person was one of the big bosses of the company, and there were even several bold female employees with exquisite makeup who made secret glances at Zhou Yutang.

After all, it’s not easy to find a hexagonal male god who has good looks, money, and status.

If you can get close to it, then you will fly on the branch and become a phoenix.

Unfortunately, Zhou Yutang didn't seem to notice their diligence. He just nodded slightly and walked straight into Zhang Yibei's office.

Now Zhang Yibei is also the manager of the variety show department here. Her main task is to be responsible for the connection between Jiangdong Entertainment Company and Mingjie Company. She is in charge of the "I Am a Singer" program cooperating with Mango Channel.

"The boss is so powerful that he has set a box office record for Chinese movies!"

"Sister Bei, please stop flattering me. How are you doing with Mingjie Company?"

"We're almost communicating."

Zhang Yibei brought a stack of information over and said, "We have already negotiated with Mango TV. Now we need to make preliminary preparations, and we will probably wait until October to start recording and broadcasting."

The specific cooperation model of "I Am a Singer" is also based on the Good Voice program, and the ratings betting contract was signed.

In fact, gambling contracts are very common in the entertainment industry.

After all, the project involves huge interests, and neither party is willing to suffer losses. The gambling contract can achieve relatively satisfactory results for both parties.

"The requirements for the program "Singer" are to benchmark good voices. I want the best stage, invite the best band to sing, and the lights can't be turned down. In addition, the strength of Xiangtai is not worse than that of Magic City TV. These conditions It can still be done”

Zhang Yibei recorded Zhou Yutang's request while asking: "Boss, someone used Huayi's connections to recommend Shang Wenjie to us and wants her to be an invited singer. Should we consider letting her become an invited singer?" ?”

"Shang Wenjie? This is Super Girl, right?"

"Yes, the 2006 Supergirl Champion seems to be covered by someone."

"Is her singing skills good?"

"It's okay, but it's definitely not as good as some top singers."

"Then don't consider it."

Zhou Yutang sat on the leather sofa with his legs crossed and objected directly.

"I think Zhang Liangying is good."

"Is he your friend, boss?"

Zhang Yibei tentatively said Bagua.

She is also a seasoned person, and has a very good handle on people and sophistication.

If the boss mentioned it, he will definitely be taken care of when the time comes.

"I don't know Zhang Liangying either, I just simply recognize her singing skills."

Zhou Yutang’s expression twitched: “Also, let me reiterate again, this is a music variety show that competes with the Good Voice show. Even if the ratings of the first episode are not comparable, all requirements are in accordance with the standards of The Voice. Come."

"Singing skills are given priority for participating singers. It doesn't matter what background they have. If someone gives you trouble, just call me directly and I will take care of it."

"The boss is domineering."

Zhang Yibei smiled and flattered her, feeling very impressed.

Before joining Jiangdong Company, he thought Zhou Yutang might just be a popular star, but he also had talents in investment and variety show planning.

But after joining Zhou Yutang's staff, I found that it was not that simple.

This young man has already developed a very strong relationship network, including Han Sanping from China Film Group and Tian Ming, the CEO of Mingjie Company, who all have a close relationship with him.

No wonder he has the confidence not to even give Huayi Company face.

"As for singers, apart from Jane Zhang, is there anyone else the boss is optimistic about?"

"In terms of candidates, I suggest you consider Lin Zhixuan, Zhou Chuanxiong is also good."

Zhou Yutang is not involved in the music industry, but he still knows the powerful singers in the circle.

Lin Zhixuan, Zhou Chuanxiong and others are indeed capable singers, and they are very suitable for the stage of I am a singer.

The most important thing is that it is not too prosperous at the moment, so the fee for inviting them to appear does not have to be too high.

After having meetings all afternoon, it was almost time for dinner.

Zhou Yutang took Zhang Yibei and Tian Ming to have a meal at a private restaurant in Shanghai.

"The Voice Season 2 is about to be launched in July. This time the scale of the audition is bigger than that of the first season. Even singers from Hong Kong and Wan Province are participating. There are still many good talents. The mentor is still Liu Huan, Wang Fei, Jay Chou and Chen Yixun are the four, but this time there is a player with a special background, and some insider manipulation may be needed."

"Brother Ming, what's your background?"

"Haha, the girl from the Ye family is very interested in music. She is also a fan of yours and wants to come and have fun at The Voice."

Tian Ming chuckled softly.

"Then just watch the operation."

Zhou Yutang choked up.

He has such fans, that's really impressive.

This girl has a real background and is worthy of a small capriciousness in power.

In ancient times, we would accompany the prince to study, but now we would accompany the princess to sing.

certainly.

It's not that I'm recommending her to win the championship, I'm just letting her advance, and then letting a few instructors give her rainbow farts, praise the girl more, and let people have fun on the stage.

It can also be seen from this that the influence of "The Voice" as a national variety show is not limited to the mainland.

The response to the auditions this time in both Wan Province and Xiangjiang was extremely enthusiastic. This young lady settled in Xiangjiang, participated in the auditions, and came to participate in the show.

"The auditions in South Korea were completed last month. The first episode has been aired so far, with a ratings of 17%. It is considered a high-quality variety show, and it is also highly discussed there. I heard that your movie It will also be released in South Korea, when will we go there to see it?"

"Just wait a few days. Domestic movie box office will be the basic market."

"This movie was really well made. Xiaojie and I both went to see it three times. The box office of the movie soon exceeded 500 million. Congratulations."

"Thank you, Brother Ming."

"By the way, there is one more thing I almost forgot to mention. My old man gave me a death order and asked me to be a lobbyist. Your next film project must leave some share for Shanghai Film Group."

"."

I communicated with Tian Ming for a while and made arrangements for the variety show.

Everything is running in an orderly manner.

Zhou Yutang ended the road show promotion in Shanghai ahead of schedule today and gave himself a day off.

They say a break is better than a wedding. I haven’t seen Liu Shishi for a long time, and I miss her a little.

Two people came out of the cinema fully armed.

Liu Shishi sounded a little excited: "Yu Tang, do you think the box office is expected to exceed 600 million?"

Blind sister, do you really dare to think about it?

Zhou Yutang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "There is definitely no hope."

This is the objective reality.

The crazy hype in the early stage, coupled with the passionate confrontation with Lu Chuan, has overdrawn most of the potential of "Agent".

Almost all the viewers who should watch it have watched it.

Currently, the total number of screens in mainstream theaters across the country does not exceed 5,000, and another very important reason is the existence of piracy.

Generally, about half a month after a movie is released, pirated copies will leak out online, which will cause great harm to the movie box office.

These two conditions greatly restrict the box office ceiling.

Therefore, Zhou Yutang desperately wanted to get off to an explosive start, and only after he had taken advantage of the right time, place and people did he expect the box office to be 400 million.

Now being able to hit 500 million is already a surprise beyond expectations.

"It's also very good. The box office record of Tianchao movies has suddenly increased by more than 100 million."

"You haven't seen Sister Cai's expression. She is very concerned about the box office of your movie. She asks about it almost every day."

Liu Shishi held Zhou Yutang's arm and happily shared with him his daily life in the Shanghai Theater.

Tian Ming's reputation in Modutan is very high.

Through his connections, Zhou Yutang found a teacher for Liu Shishi who was a senior female professor at the Shanghai Theater Theater. She was also a national first-class actor and received a special allowance from the State Council.

She is also a girl with a bit of Buddhist nature, but after getting close to Zhou Yutang, she seems to have become more motivated.

Zhou Yutang communicated with the female professor in private to understand Liu Shishi's study progress.

It turns out.

Acting in a drama with a small focus can greatly improve an actor with a poor foundation like Liu Shishi.

"Shi Shi, are you familiar with Lei Datou?"

"Yeah, they are all from the theater. Lei Datou and Guo Jingfei, who has a big head, are both very funny."

Liu Shishi chuckled and said, "Lei Datou said last time that he wanted to treat you to dinner, flatter you, and prepare to hang out with you in the future."

"Lei Datou is still so out of tune."

Zhou Yutang thought about the interactions he had with the crew of "Those Years", shook his head, and couldn't stop laughing.

Lei Datou's acting skills are very good, but in life he is just a joke.

Talking and laughing all the way back to Liu Shishi's house, Zhou Yutang was wondering whether he should buy a house in Shanghai.

Ms. Wang Fengqin’s clothing factory is in Kunshan, and the designer studio she works with is in Shanghai, so she often travels back and forth between the two places.

If you buy an apartment, you can live in it yourself, and sometimes your mother will have a place to stay here.

Zhou Yutang was very capable and sent a message directly to Zhang Yiming.

Jiujiufang is located in major cities across the country. Cities such as the Magic City naturally have channels for housing supply.

There is no rush to explain this matter.

As soon as he entered the door and wanted to lift his legs to change his shoes, Zhou Yutang watched Liu Shishi squat down and took a brand new pair of men's slippers from the shoe cabinet to help him put them on.

What's going on?

Why was she so proactive tonight! ?
