Entertainment: I really want to make progress

"Mimi, how did you decide to take on this drama?"

"Yu Tang is a good friend of mine. He said there was a drama that would be suitable for me, so I came over."

As a popular young actress, Yang Mi has more media surrounding her than Shen Teng and the others.

Da Mimi, who has rich experience in the world of martial arts, has a sweet and moving voice, and accepted the interview with a smile.

However, the creative members of Happy Twist did not feel left out.

After all, I have waited for so long and finally waited until today.

Whether it was directors Yan Fei, Peng Damo, Shen Teng, Mary, Allen and others, they all clutched the microphone tightly and were emotional during the interview:

"I'm very grateful to Mr. Zhou for giving me this opportunity. This is really not easy for us. We are very happy and hope it can bring happiness to the audience. I hope everyone enjoys watching the movie."

The media was also moved by their sincere words and couldn't help but look forward to the movie a little more.

The regular interview process with the main creators ended and the movie screening session entered. The audience and guests at the scene were quickly immersed in the movie.

Fang Liriyue, a well-known film critic in the industry, is also like this.

Due to his excellent professionalism, he has never missed any of Jiangdong Entertainment's dramas.

The dragon mark appears and the story begins.

In the wedding of the goddess Qiu Ya during the school days, the male protagonist Xia Luo forced himself to show off. Seeing the snobbish teacher played by Tian Yu, Fang Li Riyue smiled knowingly.

I didn’t remember the classmate who gave me the calendar, but the classmate who gave me the TV set immediately called out his name without thinking.

Then Ma Dongmei made a scene at the wedding, and the middle-aged man's ridiculous dignity was severely trampled and crushed. Charlotte died on the spot and hid in the bathroom, unwilling to face reality.

Something magical happened, he woke up and returned to his high school days.

"This movie is interesting."

Many viewers at the scene just felt that their eyes were bright and they were already attracted.

This is a novel movie-watching experience that has never been seen before, but people can't help but look forward to it.

What would happen if we could go back in time?

Of course it is to make up for the regrets in my life.

Charlotte did exactly that.

"Zhou Yutang's script is excellent, and Shen Teng's performance is even more surprising."

Fang Li quickly recorded the movie-watching experience in his notebook. It is his personal habit to organize movie review ideas while watching movies.

Shen Teng's acting skills are very good, and he brings to life the middle-aged man with a bit of a conceited temperament.

Watching Xia Luo cheating all the way, pursuing Bai Fumei Qiu Ya, and humiliating the second-generation official Yuan Hua, all the limelight, the audience just felt extremely happy in their hearts.

"Hey Qiu Ya, I'm Yuan Hua. I want to ask you which university you applied to."

"Don't make phone calls in the future, I'm afraid Charlotte will misunderstand."

Qiu Ya's answer immediately stunned Yuan Hua, as if he couldn't bear such a blow, he fell to his knees.

"No! Qiu Ya!"

As the BGM of Yijianmei sounded, Yuan Hua's world began to snow.

The most outrageous thing was that Meng Tejiao suddenly appeared and put a school uniform on him with a shy look.

The scene has fallen into a sea of ​​joy. Fang Li Riyue is a very professional film critic and will never laugh when working. Now I really can't hold it back.

"This is an amazing comedy movie."

"Boss, this Yuan Hua is doing a good job. He doesn't seem to be from Mahua, right?"

Ni Ni couldn't help but laugh, came over and asked with a chuckle, Zhou Yutang nodded slightly.

During the audition, he made the final list and Yin Zheng performed well.

Ten years later, the role of Yuan Hua is a classic.

The plot of "Charlotte's Trouble" is very simple. The various laugh points are not forced jokes, but are naturally integrated into the plot, making the audience laugh unconsciously.

After more than a year of running in the drama, Shen Teng, Mary and others have a perfect tacit understanding, and the overall performance presented is wonderful.

When Jay Chou and the princess appeared on the stage, the audience exclaimed, but they also found it funny.

Jay Chou was completely fucked by Charlotte, and he has been living in his shadow. The Queen of Heaven even gave Mary a hard time.

However, while laughing, the movie gradually completes the theme sublimation.

Charlotte became famous and finally reached the pinnacle of life, but she found the emptiness in her heart.

After all, he still couldn't forget his childhood sweetheart Ma Dongmei. He had a strong impulse in his heart and put it into practice. He finally decided to find her again.

"What kind of plum is Ma?"

"Ma Dongmei."

"What Dongmei?"

"Ma Dongmei!"

"What kind of plum is this?"

"Uncle, please cool down first."

"okay."

When the old man had a basin of water poured on his head, he suddenly cursed Ma Dongmei, and the audience burst into laughter again.

Ke smiled and started to cry again as the story turned.

At this time, Ma Dongmei has a new family, but Charlotte's former goddess and now his wife Qiu Ya has an affair with Yuan Hua - he is addicted to wine and sex and is unwilling to face reality, but he still plays it out Got AIDS.

The most tragic thing in life was when his good friend and follower Zhang Yang gave him the final blow: "Luo'er, we can talk about our own affairs from now on. I call you brother, and you call me dad."

He got close to Charlotte's mother.

When Xia Luo heard the news, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He really wanted to tear Zhang Yang alive, but his mother still protected him: "Don't do this to your Uncle Zhang!"

Apart from being funny.

A little sad again.

When Charlotte's life came to an end, Ma Dongmei was still by his side.

Zhou Yutang was very engaged in watching it, and he was personally quite satisfied with the completion of the film.

The response from the audience was also extremely enthusiastic.

In addition to professional film critics, some of the people who came to the premiere were ordinary audiences.

The reactions of these people, to a certain extent, reflect the most intuitive movie-watching experience.

Yang Mi on the sofa was only wearing a set of unrestrained and passionate red pajamas.

The beautiful cheeks still had the blush of the aftermath.

With her fragrant shoulders and fair legs exposed, a slight movement of her body immediately revealed her excellent career line.

Zhou Yutang was talking about work with someone. She held her mobile phone and skillfully switched to the trumpet to read entertainment news.

The premiere of "Charlotte" that just ended tonight has been on the headlines of various entertainment portals, and we have seen the photos and interviews of the celebrity guests.

Then I clicked on the first wave of film reviews from several well-known film critics in the circle, and almost all of them were praise.

Da Mimi felt happy.

A message suddenly popped up on WeChat, and the sisters in the group reacted. Yang Mi quickly switched the chat interface.

Liu Shishi originally wanted to come over to attend the premiere, but he had an urgent schedule in Shanghai. After Tang Yan became a hit in "Why Shengxiaomo", she was also busy cashing in, and she was still making money in the deep city.

However, they all cared about their good sisters, posted on Weibo to support them, and even booked the venue for their own fans. Several fans once again boasted about the sisterhood of the Three Beauties.

"Mimi, tell the truth, is there a man by your side?"

Tang Yan's sudden question startled Yang Mi, and she felt somewhat guilty:

"Why do you ask?"

"I feel like you're particularly slutty at night, a little bit slutty."

"I think you are crazy about men, speechless·jpg."

The scale of chat topics between best friends would never be imagined by outsiders. Yang Mi sent several emoticons in succession to change the topic.

After the movie premiere, she and Zhou Yutang had an in-depth discussion at the hotel about the road show promotion plan for the whole night.

Now I am satisfied both physically and mentally. When I saw Zhou Yutang finish the phone call, Xiaoniao snuggled next to him lovingly, her voice was so sweet that it was too sweet to die for: "Yu Tang, what do you think the box office of this movie will be?"

"Let's start with 800 million."

"How could it be so high? A box office of 300 million would be amazing, right?"

Yang Mi sat up from his arms, startled, and looked at the calm man next to her, thinking he was joking.

Although she thinks the movie is good and the reviews are mostly positive, to be honest, she expects it to be successful if it earns 300 million.

The movies he has acted in the past two years have either failed on the street or received bad reviews. Once a person continues to fail, he will inevitably have doubts about himself.

Yang Mi is in this state now.

And the cast of this movie is really weak.

Except for Jay Chou and Wang Fei, who were called by Zhou Yutang, Yang Mi was the biggest star, and she got the friendship price.

The rest of Shen Teng and others were paid very cheaply, and the most money was spent on film production.

"With a box office of 300 million, who are you looking down on?"

Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly: "How about a gamble?"

"How to bet?"

"With the box office threshold of 800 million, I agree to one condition."

"If you don't count on me winning, just bet."

Yang Mi's mind changed slightly, and she secretly rejoiced.

If she wins, she will book the heroine of Zhou Yutang's next movie.

It doesn't matter if you lose.

The higher the box office of a movie, the more she earns.

Zhou Yutang doesn’t want his own money anyway.

Thinking of this, Yang Mi was afraid that Zhou Yutang would regret it, so she stretched out her small white finger and hooked it: "Come and pull the hook."

"childish."

"Come on, let's have a sense of ceremony."

Zhou Yutang looked at Damimi with a clear smile: "You said this yourself. I have recorded it. Don't deny it when the time comes."

"Puppies don't admit it,"

"Hang yourself on a hook and you won't be allowed to change for a hundred years!"

It's fun to bet against Da Mimi on the box office.

Zhou Yutang had a break from work the next day and took the time to look at the statistical report Ni Ni sent over.

Have an intuitive understanding of the moviegoers and attendance rates in your own cinema.

I probably know it in my heart.

Stable.

After calling a few familiar theater bosses, the movie's reputation will gradually grow with the first batch of viewers.

As long as the follow-up film schedule keeps up, it will not be impossible to realize the dark horse myth and beat Feng Xiaogang's "Private Customization".

The day after "Charlotte" was released.

Both Feng Xiaogang and Mr. Wang were not in good spirits.

Mr. Wang had a party last night and was so excited that he was still awake in the morning.

Feng Xiaogang had been running a road show for a whole day. After all, he was getting older. He woke up several times and couldn't sleep well.

"The box office on the first day was 83 million!?"

When these two people got the latest box office data compiled by Huayi Film Department, their eyes widened in unison.

Mr. Wang sobered up.

Feng Xiaogang was also completely sleepless and couldn't help but gasped: "This series of films is only 20%, right?"

The theater chain was able to arrange such a film because Zhou Yutang's connections played a role.

Otherwise, for a movie with such a cast, basically the film schedule will not be given more than 15%.

But the most terrifying thing is that only 20% of the films are scheduled, but "Private Customization" has a record of nearly 50% of the films being scheduled.

If we arrange a film for him, is that okay?

The hearts of Mr. Xiao Wang and Feng Xiaogang have sunk to the bottom of the Huangpu River.

"Thank you to the cast and crew of "Charlotte" for coming here to communicate face-to-face with our fans."

"Happy Twist, save your unhappiness. I hope everyone will promote and support this wonderful movie."

The host of the movie roadshow was trying his best to boost the atmosphere. Yang Mi suddenly heard someone in the crowd shouting: "Qiu Ya, I like you!"

"Thank you everyone for liking the role of Qiu Ya."

Yang Mi covered her face pretending to be shy, finished communicating with the audience along with Shen Teng, Mary and others, and then rushed to the next stop without stopping.

After coming out of a movie theater with Shen Teng, Mary and others, Yang Mi felt emotional as she listened to the enthusiastic audience's cries.

Last time she participated in the one-day promotion of "Tiny Times" and was scolded badly. Now she is full of rainbow farts, which makes people feel a little bit indifferent.

"Qiu Ya is so big, I like it so much."

"Yang Mi in "Charlotte Trouble" is really beautiful."

"Mimi's movie is very exciting, I feel like it's going to be a big hit."

"Mimi will cooperate with Zhou Yutang more in the future. He can help you fly."

There are rave reviews online, and Damimi is also full of joy.

When I see a comment that praises me, I like it one by one. When I see a black comment, I rudely report it and block it and send it away.

Compared with Yang Mi who communicated with fans with ease, people like Happy Mahua had not yet experienced the feeling of taking off. They were a little frightened and confused when facing the enthusiastic fans.

After getting in the car, Allen couldn't hide his excitement: "Are we popular?"

"It's not just a fire, it's a huge fire."

"Charlotte" grossed 83 million at the box office on the first day, and 88.7 million on the second day. On the third day, theaters scheduled movies, which happened to be the weekend, and it grossed 104 million in a single day!

After "囧囧", another comedy movie with a single-day box office exceeding 100 million was born.

The film and television industry was shocked.

"Charlotte" is like a hurricane, sweeping the entire Lunar New Year movie market.

Zhou Yutang's work phone was once again flooded with congratulatory messages from all directions.

Anyway, he contacted the acquaintance directly through his personal number, so he simply left it all to Ni Ni.

Everyone in the industry knows that the movie "Charlotte" was produced by Zhou Yutang. The production cost was only 30 million, and it only took half a year from filming to release.

According to this momentum, it is clearly the second Thai囧.

At this time, the domestic film market has developed a lot compared to when "Thailand" was released. Today's "Charlotte Trouble" may even go further.

"One movie is worth a year's profit of a listed company."

Wang Changtian, who is favored by the media, has a relatively calm personality, but after paying attention to the real-time box office data updates of "Charlotte" every day, he can no longer remain calm.

Countless film and television companies in the industry have left envious comments.

The most popular thing in the media right now is "Charlotte", including Lao Mouzi who publicly praised it in interviews with the media at the premiere of "Police Story 2013":

"The script written by Yu Tang is very interesting, Happy Twist is very well done, and the audience's eyes are sharp. This is the best comedy movie I have seen this year, and it is definitely worth watching."

"Ah Tang, you are really amazing."

Jackie Chan gave a thumbs up to Zhou Yutang who took the time to attend the premiere.

Prince Long, who was following him, smiled and said auspicious words. It was obvious that he had been educated by his father's thoughts.

Jing Tian, ​​who had only met at the Golden Horse last month, smiled sweetly when he saw Zhou Yutang: "Brother Yutang, congratulations on your box office success."

"Tiantian, you also have a movie called "Haojiang Fengyun", right?"

Zhou Yutang also stopped and chatted for a few words.

Da Tiantian's career has also taken off this year. After "Introduction to Architecture", she became the nation's first love with her pure and sweet image and temperament.

There are two movies to be released at the end of the year. In addition to "Police Story 2013" which is a collaboration between Six Doors Headquarters, there is also "The Storm of Haojiang" directed by the fat man Wang Jing.

"Well, I hope the box office won't be too bad by then."

Da Tiandian nodded, with a bright smile on his face. Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows, somewhat teasingly: "Didn't Wang Jing say that the box office will exceed 1.5 billion?"

"Brother Yu Tang, Director Wang is joking."

At the premiere, "Charlotte" was inevitably mentioned. Jackie Chan was very generous and made a joke: "You can always trust Director Zhou Yutang's vision. He came to attend the premiere today. I feel that I am very impressed with this "Charlotte"." "Police Story" is more confident, and I hope the box office will be better by then."

The "Police Story" at the beginning of the century created Shuaibi Azu. This time, the reboot of "Police Story 2013" was directed by Ding Sheng.

Zhou Yutang only had one feeling when he saw it:

No one can beat the sharp knife of time.

Jackie Chan is getting old after all.

"Police Story 2013, a police drama starring Jackie Chan, Jing Tian and Liu Huohua, grossed 64.8 million at the box office on its first day, breaking Jackie Chan's personal record!"

"The movie "Storm" directed by Yuan Jinlin, produced and supervised by Jiang Zhiyi and Andy Lau, and starring Andy Lau, Jiadong Lam, Yao Chen and Jun Hu, the box office exceeded 30 million on the first day."

"The total box office of "Private Customization" exceeded 400 million, and the film schedule was affected, and the single-day box office dropped to just over 20 million!"

""Charlotte" came from behind, with a total box office of over 500 million in the first week, dominating the Lunar New Year period, and the dark horse myth continues!"

In late December, with the entry of Jackie Chan, the Lunar New Year movie officially started its bloody mode.

The heroes fought in chaos, and it was extremely cruel.

"Jungle" has a cumulative box office of 49.1 million, and "Wolf Boy" has a cumulative box office of 2.4 million. The cannon fodder of the Lunar New Year festival has sadly withdrawn.

The total box office of Guangguang's "Famous 2" has reached 178 million. The single-day box office has only just over 1 million left, and the potential will be exhausted.

However, Lao Wang was very experienced, so he put the film on schedule for release at the beginning of the month, directly avoiding the strangulation situation, and he was able to escape unscathed.

In the movie "Private Customization", teacher Fan Wei really contributed a lot of interesting jokes.

But as far as the overall plot is concerned, there are big problems.

Money was made, but the movie completely failed to meet some viewers' expectations for Feng's comedy.

"You used to be a very down-to-earth director, but now you are no longer on the ground?"

"The most conscientious thing about Director Feng's film is that he didn't make it 3D to make money."

Feng Xiaogang has received a lot of scolding. His previous New Year films were "Party A and Party B", "See You or Be Parted", "Big Shot", and now he is "Private Customization".

On the contrary, Happy Twist's "Charlotte Troubles" was almost unanimously praised.

For example, if Feng Xiaogang's "Private Customization" is a Michelin tire chef in a five-star restaurant, and the customer spends money, but the result is all home-cooked food, the taste is not surprising, it will naturally make people feel disappointed.

And "Charlotte Troubles" is like a pushcart roadside barbecue. When customers enjoy their food, they feel that it tastes good and they are naturally satisfied.

At this time of the Lunar New Year, "Private Customization" and "Charlotte Troubles" are competing products of the same theme, and they are fighting each other like crazy.

"Private Order" had the first-mover advantage and once took the lead, while "Charlotte" caught up from behind. A week after the movie was released, the gap in word-of-mouth began to show.

The former scored 6.0 on Douban, and "Charlotte" scored 8.4 on Douban on the first day it was released. On the second day of release, the score rose to 8.5.

With the good reputation of "Charlotte", the box office has not been less than 60 million a full week after its release, which has surpassed "Private Order", and the box office gap is still widening.

Because of the negative impact of the film's reputation, Xiaogangpao pointed his gun at the film critics who gave his film bad reviews: "Everyone who sells pancakes has a certificate, but the film critic doesn't have a work certificate, and he still scolds him. He doesn't see the value of the film." Yes, you don’t deserve to be a film critic!”

During this time, Zhou Yutang stayed in the company to work on the post-production of the film. He was very happy to see the little steel cannon posting several messages on Weibo and blasting him wildly.

The film and television industry is so realistic and cruel.

The audience's aesthetics are evolving. If you can't keep up with the times, you will be eliminated.

With the popularity of "Charlotte", Happy Twist defeated Feng Xiaogang head-on and became famous in one battle.

Not only is Shen Teng famous all over the country, Mary, Allen and other little transparent people in twists and turns have also been recognized by the audience and gained countless fans.

The box office is still booming, which also helped Yang Mi get rid of her label as the queen of bad movies.

Although this movie is Shen Teng's one-man show, Qiu Yamei stands out a bit against the rustic Ma Dongmei.

Fans of Yang Mi have already celebrated the New Year in advance.

With the box office performance in hand, I will have more confidence to break up with my opponent in the future.

"Charlotte" starring my sister exploded at the box office. What do you think about the box office performance?

Zhou Yutang felt that this routine was a bit familiar.

Teacher Fan was originally the heroine of "The Alone Agent". When it was a box office hit, her fans were also crazy about it.

Now Yang Mi is following Teacher Fan’s old path.

but.

Happy Mahua and Yang Mi may make a lot of money, but Zhou Yutang will only make more.

In addition to the box office division, he also holds shares in Happy Mahua. Now there are capitals actively approaching him and offering generous prices to buy shares in Mahua.

The entire film and television circle is discussing the dark horse myth created by "Charlotte Troubles".

During this period, the crew ran road shows in first-tier cities across the country. During interviews, Zhou Yutang was mentioned the most.

The script was written by Zhou Yutang.

He is also the sole producer and executive producer of the film.
