Entertainment: I really want to make progress

Time quickly entered March.

After "囧囧" wreaked havoc on the Lunar New Year holiday, the Chinese film market has gradually become deserted.

Although Xu Haofeng's "Traces of the Pirates" was shortlisted for the Venice Horizon section and has a good reputation, after the film was released, the box office was shocking, with a total box office of just over one million, and it did not even complete its release period.

At this time, "Sister Tao" held its premiere in Beijing.

When Zhou Yutang met the cast and crew at the premiere.

As a director, Xu Anhua's happiness is visible to the naked eye.

Last year, she had great success in Venice. After that, she also won awards at the Golden Horse Awards and many Hong Kong association awards. She is even more optimistic about being the most powerful contender for the Hong Kong Film Awards in April this year.

Xu Anhua has become famous in the film and television circles, and now he has been awarded a film contract by the boss of Star America with a lot of money.

Andy Lau already won the Best Actor crown at the Golden Horse Awards last year, and was nominated for the Best Actor Award at the Academy Awards this year.

A literary film, the main creators have all benefited a lot.

Of course, Zhou Yutang definitely did not suffer any loss, and also gained both fame and fortune.

After greeting his friends, Liu Tianwang took the initiative to come over and give him a cordial hug: "Ah Tang, congratulations to Berlin for winning the award."

"Brother Hua, you have a good chance at this year's Academy Awards."

"It's hard to say yet."

Liu Dehua waved his hands modestly, but the corners of his mouth turned up even harder than ak's.

"Is sister-in-law giving birth soon?"

"Two more months."

Liu Tianwang put his arms around Zhou Yutang's shoulders and asked with a smile: "Now every day is news about your movie "Celebrating More Than Years". When will "Now You See Me" be filmed?"

"Let's wait until the TV series is finished filming first, probably by the middle of the year."

Zhou Yutang chatted with Liu Tianwang all the time.

The premiere of "Sister Peach" was quite successful. After all, it was a film that won an award in Venice and was filmed really well. Many emotional female viewers shed tears on the spot.

Because of the film's good reputation, the film's film schedule was not high, and it took in a box office of 14.2 million on the day of its premiere.

The movie was released simultaneously in Hong Kong, and the local box office performance in Hong Kong was also very good, with a revenue of HK$3.8 million on the day of its premiere.

"not bad."

Zhou Yutang glanced at the box office data of movies released in the same period in March compiled by Mao Xiaoyu and was very satisfied with the results.

This achievement is quite rare for a literary film. The box office of Guoshi's "Hawthorn Tree" on the first day was just over 10 million.

There were more than ten low-budget movies released at the same time in early March. Only this one, "Sister Tao", stood out from the crowd, while the others were terrible.

But then there are several imported films such as "The Time Bandits" starring Jessica Alba and "Furthermore" starring Jason Statham.

When the time comes, the box office of "Sister Tao" will inevitably take a certain impact, but last year the cost was recovered by just selling the copyright, and now it is a steady profit regardless of the box office.

The next few days.

Zhou Yutang and Lu Yang worked on the film's post-production together.

He mainly looked at Liu Shishi's part.

Liu Shishi dancing in the snow is poignant and beautiful, and will definitely become a classic scene in her acting career.

I was in the editing room that day when I received a call from Mao Xiaoyu: "Boss, Shen Teng and the others are here."

Zhou Yutang handed over the matter to Lu Yang and went up to receive him personally.

I happened to watch several members of the Happy Twist Team looking around.

Ailun looked at the trophy Zhou Yutang received in the honor room and expressed his feelings in the simplest language: "Wucao, Mr. Zhou is so awesome."

"Look at your unseen look. Now we can be considered as subordinates of the Jiangdong Governor and a regular army."

Shen Teng murmured: "Is this Silver Bear Trophy made of sterling silver?"

Hearing someone calling Mr. Zhou, Shen Teng turned around and saw that Zhou Yutang had arrived at some unknown time. He covered his mouth and coughed, and his face was instantly filled with an friendly smile: "Hello, Mr. Zhou, I have admired your name for a long time."

"Hello."

I don’t know why, but Zhou Yutang wanted to laugh when he saw Shen Teng: “The skit in the Spring Festival Gala was very exciting.”

After performing on stage during the Spring Festival Gala, Happy Twist is no longer an unknown person. Although it is not as popular as Xiao Shen Yang, who became famous all over the country overnight, it has also given Shen Teng and others a certain degree of popularity.

Zhou Yutang made another fortune by investing in Happy Twist in advance.

Shen Teng said: "We have already felt this from the red envelope given by President Zhou on New Year's Eve."

"Actually, I've heard of you a long time ago."

"Mr. Zhou has heard of me a long time ago?"

Shen Teng had a shocked expression on his face.

"Didn't you audition for Ning Hao's "The Golden Heist"?"

"Xiao Dongbei, it's a pity that I wasn't chosen. Director Ning Hao said I was a bit old." Shen Teng said with a surprised expression on his face.

"It's okay, pretty good."

Zhou Yutang has received professional training and finally couldn't hold back his laughter: "If you have the opportunity in the future, you can try to develop into a comedy-type film. I think it is very promising."

Maybe, some people are born with audience connections and are suitable to take the path of comedians.

Mao Xiaoyu, who came to pour the water, was a little surprised.

After following Zhou Yutang for so long, she rarely saw her boss be so optimistic about an actor.

"Borrowing Mr. Zhou's auspicious words."

After chatting with Shen Teng for a few words, the topic shifted to the script "Charlotte Troubles".

After the New Year, Peng Damo and Yan Fei were at the creative center, working with the screenwriting team of Jiangdong Entertainment to complete the script according to the outline ideas given by Zhou Yutang.

It’s better to make a basic drama about Ma Hua first and see how the audience responds, and then start the movie project.

After everyone in Mahua left, Mao Xiaoyu asked curiously: "Boss, why do you think so highly of Shen Teng?"

"I think he may be the leader of mainland comedies in the future."

"So exaggerated?"

"What did you say on the phone just now?"

"Boss, the Human Resources Department has brought over the assistant interview list. Do you want to take a look?"

Mao Xiaoyu remembered what she had just said and excitedly brought a small stack of documents over.

"Why are you so excited?"

"Uh, no."

Mao Xiaoyu smiled guiltily and said, "I'm happy for you, boss. There seem to be many beauties in this batch."

"You know, I'm face-blind and can't tell who is beautiful or not."

Zhou Yutang straightened up instantly: "What is the most important thing about being an assistant? Can you do it? Everything else is nonsense. Bring me the information and show it to me."

He had explained this matter years ago, but he didn't expect progress to be made so quickly. Now he felt a little more interested.

Ah, yes, yes, I am as blind as you, and I accurately targeted Liu Tianxian, Liu Shishi, and Gao Yuanyuan.

Mao Xiaoyu still had the desire to survive, so she suppressed her desire to complain and handed over the compiled information.

Zhou Yutang has a professional security team around him. They are all thick and round-waisted men, but all of his life assistants are women.

The main reason is that he feels that women are more careful and considerate than men, and this is indeed the case.

I took the information and read it over.

Applicants include experienced elder sisters who have worked in listed groups, as well as younger sisters who have just graduated from university.

Just looking at the ID photo, at least he has good facial features, which is dazzling.

"Milk Tea Sister hasn't even graduated from college, why did she sign up?"

Halfway through, Zhou Yutang was slightly startled, and pulled out a resume, which was a photo of Milk Tea wearing a white shirt.

"She has good abilities. She has written down and wants to come here for an internship to train herself."

Look at her college experience, it's really exciting.

Actively participate in various school activities and want to make progress at first sight.

"Forget it, she's not suitable."

When Zhou Yutang returned to Beijing at the beginning of the year, he even had a dinner date with his fellow countryman Qiang Ge.

Everyone is from Jiangsu Province, and they have all made a name for themselves in their respective circles. They have already met each other in the past two years.

Zhou Yutang is optimistic about Dong Ge's mind, and Dong Ge also appreciates Zhou Yutang's vision.

The two of them were going in both directions.

We became good friends after having dinner a few times.

Dong Ge has been seeking financing from venture capital institutions in order to expand his business in recent years.

Having set his sights on the Jiangdong cash king two years ago, Zhou Yutang established another investment company last year and invested tens of millions in Dong Ge. Compared with Tiger Fund, which invested at the time, the shares received were not many.

Naturally, this is done for capital appreciation and to make more money.

From a longer-term perspective, this investment can also expand your cognitive boundaries.

The matter of the female secretary needs to be looked at again.

The main reason is that Zhou Yutang can't live without Mao Xiaoyu now.

Although this girl looks cute on the outside, she is actually very capable of doing things.

Wen Neng provides a one-stop service for booking meals and arranging hotels to help with time management, and Wu Neng is good at making ppts.

Zhou Yutang had just finished explaining the mid-year work plan to the company's senior management in the conference room, and specially left Jiang Xuexuan and Zhou Shufang behind. "Manager Jiang, is it okay to communicate with Mango Channel about "Henmark in the Sky"? When will it be broadcast?" "

"Listening to the arrangements over there, it seems to be around June."

"Um."

Zhou Yutang nodded slightly: "Manager Zhou, when the time comes, your artist management department will contact Tangren to formulate a marketing plan for Guli Naza."

"clear."

Zhou Shufang understood: "I'll hold a meeting later and come up with a few plans."

She has been in the artist manager business for more than ten years and knows the ropes well.

In the entertainment industry, any star who wants to become famous cannot avoid marketing.

If you don't do marketing, you're just waiting to be trampled and hacked by your opponents.

If marketing is in place, there are many benefits.

You can bring passers-by fan disks, and whoever dares to take advantage of the situation will naturally have fans to help fight.

"The "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" led by Sister Fen does not have a large share in the company. You leave it to others to handle Huanrui."

"Next, your main energy will be focused on the "Celebrating More Than Years" project. I heard that the costumes and props are almost done. I will take care of the final casting work. The start-up time will be as early as the end of March. I will have some departments behind me." Movie."

"Chen Daoming is still accelerating the filming progress. He will be able to join the set as early as late April. You must do a good job of communication first..."

"I understand, Mr. Zhou."

"Sister K, you are so busy, why do you have time to call me?"

When he received a call from Cai Yinong, Zhou Yutang thought she was here to ask for a role.

I didn’t expect that this sister had changed her gender and didn’t mention it.
