Entertainment: I really want to make progress

When he entered the office, Han Sanping, wearing a jacket, was talking on the phone.

Zhou Yutang didn't show any politeness to him. He walked straight to the tea cabinet next to him, opened the top drawer, and started searching.

He doesn't like coffee very much, but it's because the beauty in Tsing Yi likes to drink tea, and he also developed this hobby.

Han Sanping often has good tea that cannot be bought outside, most of which are cheaper than Zhou Yutang's.

"Hmm, Mr. Hou, let's do this for now."

Han Sanping on the other side finished the phone call with a smile. When he saw Zhou Yutang's behavior, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Stop searching, I have already prepared it for you, and you have plundered all the remaining dry food."

"Mr. Han still understands me."

Zhou Yutang poured tea for the two of them. He smelled the tea first and then took a sip. The fragrance lingered on his lips and teeth. It was indeed the best tea.

"Is the preparation for "In the Name of the People" almost complete?"

"It will be launched after the new year at the latest."

"It happens to be the Berlin Film Festival, Mr. Han, won't you go?"

"I won't go this time and let Lao Meng lead the team."

Han Sanping crossed his legs and said with a smile: "This time the Berlin jury is betting that the king of sunglasses will be the winner. He is very promising."

After the official announcement of Zhang Yimou by the Berlin Film Festival Organizing Committee, it was immediately announced that "The Grandmaster" will be selected as the opening film of this film festival, but it will not participate in the competition of the Berlin International Film Festival.

Even though the Sunglasses King has been sharpening his sword for several years, his influence in the international film industry is extraordinary.

His first work "Carmen" was screened in the forum section of the 41st Berlin International Film Festival in 1991. Later, his "Forest" and "Fallen Angel" were also screened in the same section. .

The Sunglasses King naturally has a relationship with the Imperial Master. They are both from the Celestial Dynasty, so there is room for maneuver here.

"The notebook you gave Lao Mouzi is really good."

"Director Zhang's photography is better."

Zhou Yutang chatted with Han Sanping about "Hunting" and was looking forward to this trip to Berlin.

Han Sanping took a sip of tea and nodded in praise: "You handled the matter between Lao Mouzi and Zhang Weiping very well. His daughter got married some time ago. Did you go there?"

"Let Li Shuang go for me."

Zhou Yutang also raised his tea cup and took a sip.

Even Zhou Yutang made clear arrangements for the daughter of the Imperial Master and his ex-wife.

It’s okay to plug in Han Jia Nu, and there’s no problem in plugging in Zhang Mo. These two are both assistant directors and producers in "Now You See Me".

Once you are plated with this layer of gold, your journey in the circle will be easier in the future.

Of course, the eldest daughter of Lao Mouzi's family graduated from New York University with a major in directing, and also worked as an editor, assistant director and part-time translator with a national teacher. She must have no problem with her own abilities.

"Yu Tang."

Han Sanping was drinking tea when an idea suddenly came to him and he lowered his crossed legs: "Do you want to find a way to push the box office higher?"

According to the current box office trend, the final target of "Now You See Me" is about 1.685 billion, and Han Sanping wants to go further.

A movie that can be recognized by the market has many ways to promote box office growth.

For example, if you hold a meeting with your boss and then organize some agencies and units to watch movies in the form of tasks, the box office of the movie will naturally increase a lot.

It's just that doing this would make it look too ugly.

"forget it."

Zhou Yutang smiled and shook his head: "Mr. Han, we must respect the laws of the market. Tianchao Movies continues to develop, and the box office of movies will be higher and higher in the future."

"Okay, it's up to you."

After several years of cooperation, Han Sanping has enough confidence in Zhou Yutang's abilities.

That is the confidence brought by outstanding achievements again and again.

Zhou Yutang was looking at China Film's film schedule.

The film schedule for January has been released, with more than 20 new films released, among which "The Grandmaster" and "Skyfall" are the strongest.

In February, the world is basically dominated by Xingye's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

"As expected, "Introduction to Architecture" will be placed in March."

""Slaying the Wolf 2" is scheduled for summer release"

After a brief chat about the film schedule, Han Sanping inevitably talked about Zhou Yutang's new film plan.

"Wait a little longer."

Zhou Yutang has always been used to preparing for rainy days. During this period, the outside world was almost praising him to the sky, which made him calmer.

Regarding the new movie plan, there are currently several projects to choose from. However, the movie is still in theaters at the moment. He also has to take on the drama promotion work of "Celebrating More Than Years". He can only spare some time to read the script. He must settle down and carefully Think about it.

"Yu Tang, "No Man's Land" should be fine."

"It's good to pass. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Han."

"This time, those old guys didn't even give me face."

Han Sanping looked at Zhou Yutang thoughtfully, and suddenly laughed: "It's still your way, the leader above has spoken."

In his heart, he was really feeling a little emotional.

Like Zhou Yutang, those who are successful in the entertainment industry are not just talented. They are also impeccable in terms of human sophistication. The key is the support of their superiors.

Sometimes, Zhou Yutang's words carry more weight than him.

No one knows better than Mr. Han that if you want to succeed in China, your ability is important, but having connections is even more important.

Many times, just one word from the person in the key position can outweigh countless efforts.

"No matter what, it's good to get through it."

Zhou Yutang couldn't help but sigh when he emerged from the shadow.

Since Ning Hao started working on "No Man's Land", he has been kicked back by reviewers countless times.

After going back and forth, after hearing the news, this tough man who loves wearing thick gold chains burst into tears on the spot.

Even his wife Xing Aina couldn't help wiping away tears.

I went to Ning Hao's family's villa in the suburbs of Beijing for a small gathering. I was immediately greeted by Ning Hao, who gave me a bear hug.

He thought that the governor would hug countless girls, but this was the first time he hugged such a grown man. He patted Ning Hao on the back and said, "It's not too late for good food, as long as it can be served."

"It's been more than three years."

Ning Hao finally calmed down and sighed: "I thought this movie would never be released."

The film was finally approved, which was also a great joy. Ning Hao entertained friends at home. All the people who came were members of the "No Man's Land" crew, and basically everyone who could come came.

Xing Aina cooked a sumptuous meal herself.

"Don't be so pessimistic, I'm quite happy."

Huang Bo, with his usual high emotional intelligence, raised his glass and said, "Yu Tang's movies are all aiming for 1.6 billion in box office, which is even more worthy of joy. Everyone will get better and better in the future."

"Yu Tang, I really want to thank you this time."

Ning Hao said with gratitude.

Zhou Yutang didn't tell him what he had done. He was only notified by General Manager Guang, and Han Sanping revealed that Zhou Yutang had asked a leader above to help him speak.

"Brother Bo is right, we have to look forward."

Zhou Yutang consoled him.

"Don't just talk, eat the food. Try what I cook to see if it suits your taste."

Xing Aina prepared wine and food with the aunt invited by her family, and she did not forget to greet the guests.

After the five flavors of food and three rounds of wine, Ning Hao said with emotion: "It is really difficult to make this movie."

"It's really not easy."

Huang Bo also grinned and said, "Do you still remember when you asked Baldy Xu to lose weight?"

"Why don't you remember?"

Ning Hao slapped his thigh and said with a smile: "I asked him to lose weight. The guy didn't say anything. He just didn't eat staple food every day and only supplemented with vitamins and sugar. He lost weight so quickly. I remember he lost 15 pounds in a month. Bar."

"more than."

Yue Xiaojun, who looked a little melancholy, said: "At least 25 pounds. That guy went from having a bun face to an oval face due to starvation. I still have photos here."

As he spoke, he pulled out photos from his phone.

Zhou Yutang leaned over and took a look. When Xu Guangtou lost weight, he had beautiful features and looked a bit like Xie Tingfeng, the young master of Xiangjiang.

Movies in those days were really just movies.

Losing weight is just losing weight, not burning hot.

The director only wants to film the scene well, and the actors only want to better fit the role. Everyone's purpose is relatively pure.

"What has Baldy Xu been busy with lately?"

"He is now a director with a box office of 1 billion, and many bosses in the industry come to him to discuss projects."

"Yu Tang is even more incredible now. He has three movies with a box office of over 1 billion, the only one in China. I give you a toast."

Huang Bo came over again holding a glass of wine: "If you have any suitable roles in the future, please bring them with me. They are cheap and easy to use. I will definitely cooperate."

The outside world says that Huang Bo has a high emotional intelligence, and his reputation is not in vain.

Getting along with him will always make people feel comfortable. Whenever there is a gathering of friends like this, there will never be a moment of silence.

"How can you use it?"

Yu Nan was very tough and started to yell, "I'll let you kill the pigs. If you become more murderous, you can just run away from the battle."

"The smell of the pig farm is really unbearable."

Huang Bo shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Fortunately, the movie passed the review. It's not easy."

"It's no wonder we ate so much sand in the Gobi."

Yu Nan couldn't help complaining: "Director Zhou, you may not know that there is not even a toilet in that place. It's so unfriendly to lesbians. You have to use an umbrella to go to the toilet!"

"It's not easy for Yu Nan either."

Ning Hao said with emotion: "I have sacrificed a lot for this drama."

"Since you're eating this bowl of rice, there's nothing to say."

Yu Nan shrugged his shoulders, but he was very open-minded.

Ning Hao has talked to Zhou Yutang several times about this movie, and he has also seen the finished film.

Yu Nan plays the role of a dancer who is trafficked to the desert. It was only through listening to their chat that I found out that in order to better interpret this role, Yu Nan actually went to a hair salon to experience life with the girls at the salon. Eating, playing cards, doing nails, after the sisters got along for more than half a month, they fully integrated into each other and performed the taste.

"I just remember eating a box lunch and my mouth was full of sand."

Lei Datou is also very good at creating atmosphere. He shook his head and said: "I am really scared. I will never dare to go to that place to film in the future."

Huang Bo joked: "Then if Director Zhou's next movie is going to be filmed in the Gobi, will you go?"

"Then you must go."

Lei Datou patted his chest in an unruly manner and said with a grin: "Director Zhou said, come through water and go through fire, there will be no complaints."

He had a bit of a talent for comedy, and he made everyone laugh. Zhou Yutang couldn't help but smile, and turned to Ning Hao:

"When will the movie be released?"

"Let's make it February."

"Are you sure? There will be Brother Bo's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" in February."

Zhou Yutang was a little surprised, but Ning Hao shook his head: "The nights are long and there are many dreams. Now I just want to release it as soon as possible. There is still more than a month of promotion period, which is almost enough."

Lei Datou and Huang Bo were singing, and Zhou Yutang was chatting with Ning Hao and Yue Xiaojun about the new script.

Ning Hao was recently working on an alien script. Zhou Yutang noticed that Ning Hao's screenwriter Yue Xiaojun seemed to be in a low mood. He was just drinking alone and asked in a low voice: "Why doesn't Xiaojun look unhappy?"

This guy is also a talented player who became a monk on the way. Before entering the industry, he set up a stall in the front door of Beijing, sold sweaters, and resold office equipment in Zhongguancun.

Later, he studied in Chinese opera and met Ning Hao. The two aspiring young people hit it off immediately. Because the funds were tight when filming The Stone, Yue Xiaojun personally played the role of Brother Dao's younger brother and fellow member Xiaojun. He said to his sister-in-law: "You How could you do such a thing? Are you worthy of brother and me? "

This informative saying has become a popular meme even now.

Later, he also participated in the screenwriting work of "Crazy Racing" and was a close friend of director Ning Hao.

"Just divorced."

Ning Hao lowered his voice and replied, talking to Zhou Yutang and not forgetting to take care of his brother.

"There is no grass anywhere in the world, just look around."

Huang Bo was making noise again: "You have to ask Yu Tang about women. He has always been very capable."

Facing Yue Xiaojun's knowledge-hungry gaze, Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed: "Brother Bo, you're not bad either. You were photographed going back to the apartment to spend the night with a beautiful woman a few days ago."

"I was discussing acting skills, it was a very pure relationship."

Huang Bo coughed lightly: "We are all friends, Yu Tang, just give Xiaojun some advice."

"Director Zhou."

Yue Xiaojun really asked with a longing look on his face: "How on earth do you get a woman?"

We are all friends in the same circle, so of course we know that there are some scandals, but they are not rumors.

Thinking that he can't even get a woman, Zhou Yutang is surrounded by beauties. Even his secretary Ni Ni, who came with him to the party today, looks like she's having an affair with him.

Several people at the scene had their ears pricked up like antennas, and their curiosity was overwhelming.

"A lot of times, it's them who take the initiative."

"."

Yue Xiaojun opened his mouth, his expression twitched, and his whole body choked.

Several people around him were also downcast.

Zhou Yutang is so handsome that he is notoriously powerful and wealthy. It is normal for women to cheat on him. This question is too difficult and there is no way he can learn it.

"Don't be discouraged, Brother Jun. The best way to forget your last relationship is to start the next one."

The atmosphere was here, so Zhou Yutang made a casual joke: "If you have a chance, go out for a walk and relax. Leave this environment in a short time and see the beautiful scenery of the motherland. Don't give up a forest for a tree. The sky is beautiful." There are plenty of girls.”

"That's well said!"

Director Ning Hao praised the case: "Marriage is the tomb of love, Xiaojun, you should learn from Yu Tang. Why should a real man worry about not having a wife?"

"What tomb?"

Xing Aina came up with a cut fruit plate and glanced at Ning Hao lightly.

"Uh, wifey."

Ning Hao changed his face quickly and said, "I'm just kidding, Xiaojun said he envied me for having a good wife."

Yue Xiaojun: "-_-||"

He wanted to say, "Sister-in-law, I really didn't say that."

"De Xing, Xiaojun, please be more open-minded."

Xing Aina obviously knew about this, so she put down the fruit plate and turned around to chat with Yu Nan and Ni Ni.

Today was a gathering between men, and she saved enough face for Ning Hao.

"How about this."

Ning Hao said: "Xiaojun, after the New Year, I will put down my work and drive out for a walk with you. Just like Yu Tang said, look at the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. There is no grass anywhere in the world. Maybe it can help you find love."

"Is that okay?"

"It's definitely possible. I just haven't been feeling good about writing the script recently. Maybe I'll get some inspiration on the way!"

ps: I’m so dizzy, I’ve only written 4,000 words today.
