Entertainment: I really want to make progress

"Guli Nazha made a stunning appearance, the goddess's beauty is off the charts."

"Now You See Me, the legend reappears, the premiere atmosphere was hot."

"The Four Knights of K Organization are back, presenting another wonderful magic show."

"The Grand Commander boasts that he will break the box office record of Chinese movies!"

"Hu Ge refuses to talk about the past, looks to the future, and concentrates on his career."

"The Chinese pop music king Jay Chou and his wife Kunling show their love on the spot!"

...

Entertainment headlines on major portals, hot posts on forums, and hot searches on Weibo.

All of them are "Now You See Me 2", even Hong Kong囧, which first set off the National Day file, did not have such attention.

"Please support "The Magic Team", it's a great movie!

Naza go, Magic Team go!"

After the cocktail party, the recently popular 90s flower Dilraba Dilmurat posted the above Weibo in Zhou Yutang's arms

She and Nazha are the bond of the sisters in the northern border.

They fought side by side at night.

Lu Han and Chen Chichi and other members of the Running Man team also forwarded the message.

Liu Yifei, Zeng Li, Liu Shishi, Li Xin, Zhao Liying, Chen Xiao and other celebrities who were still filming in the crew also forwarded the message in support.

On the day of the premiere, Zhou Yutang was on the road show when he received excited feedback from the data department manager:

"As of 12:30 noon, the cumulative box office has exceeded 142 million, and the attendance rate is more than 90%!"

"It's only been half a day, are you kidding?"

Nazha next to him opened her mouth slightly with a shocked expression.

"What are you doing?"

Deng Chao couldn't hold it anymore.

He suspected that there was something wrong with the data, and even Martian language popped out.

After coming over to check, Deng Chao was completely convinced: "It's really going to break the first-day box office record, congratulations to Director Guo."

"Congratulations to Director Guo!"

"Director Guo has become famous in one battle!"

The congratulatory voice in his ear made Guo Fan feel unreal.

It was like flying in the clouds.

The brain went blank for a short time and lost the ability to think.

Although I have envisioned the scene after success countless times.

But when the box office data came out, I was still shocked.

Those who work in the film and television industry know that the afternoon and evening are the real golden time for watching movies.

Guo Fan forgot what he should say.

He just smiled foolishly at everyone.

Until Zhou Yutang patted his shoulder:

"A journey of a hundred miles begins with a single step. You take Brother Chao with you, don't slack off, I'll be in the same group with Lao Hu and Nazha."

Tom Hiddleston only participated in the roadshow in Beijing and the promotional itinerary abroad.

Xie Tingfeng asked for leave from the crew of "Operation Mekong".

The filming was being filmed abroad and could not be delayed, so he only stayed for one day and then returned to the crew.

The main creative team of the crew was divided into two groups, covering most of the first-tier cities in China.

After a busy day, several universities in Beijing were hit.

In the evening, Zhou Yutang took Nazha and Hu Ge to the cinema together.

I went to the scene and watched "Lost in Hong Kong" in person.

After the movie, Zhou Yutang asked everyone about their movie experience when he took Nazha, Hu Ge and the team out of the cinema for a midnight snack.

Hu Ge was more reserved: "How should I put it? Lost in Hong Kong doesn't seem to be as funny as Lost in Thailand."

Nazha was very direct: "Bao Beier made me so embarrassed that I fell asleep just now."

It has to be you!

The agent beside him quickly drank a sip of iced wheat juice to calm down.

"It doesn't taste like Wang Baoqi."

Zhou Yutang laughed with everyone around him.

"Now You See Me 2" is not a classic, but it can be called a qualified commercial blockbuster, not to mention that it has the popularity of the previous series, so Zhou Yutang is confident about the box office.

But how far it can go depends on the quality of its opponents to a certain extent.

If Xu Guangtou's "Lost in Hong Kong" has 90% of the quality of "Lost in Thailand", then it is still unknown who will win.

Now it seems.

It's settled.

"On the first day of the release of Now You See Me 2, the box office closed at 293 million, topping the single-day box office champion!"

"Lost in Hong Kong closed at 642 million in the first weekend after three days of release, temporarily leading the National Day box office!"

With Now You See Me 2 fully landing in theaters, the movie market before the National Day has reached a climax in advance.

These two movies account for more than 85% of the movie market's screenings!

Cruise's hope to go further in China has been cut off.

After the minions have passed 300 million, it is difficult to continue.

Even Hollywood imported blockbusters can't stand the pressure, and domestic films are killed everywhere.

When the eldest and the second fight, the third is the most likely to die.

The Sino-Korean co-production blockbuster movie "The Third Way of Love" was jointly invested by Huashi Film and Television, SM Company, and iQiyi.

Liu Tianxian had received the script before, but later she focused on her drama career, and the pie fell into Li Lianhua's hands.

South Korean director Lee Jae-han, Lee Bin-bin partnered with Song Seung-heon, and added Ou Di, Meng Jia and others, sharpened their knives for the National Day, but only received 9.85 million in the first day.

It was announced in advance that it would become the cannon fodder of the National Day.

College students are undoubtedly the pride of heaven.

In their best years, they have the pride and childishness that are exclusive to young people.

They often feel that they are the center of the world.

For the leaders who are high above and symbolize authority, there is a sense of distance and disdain in the subconscious.

However.

Facing Zhou Yutang, who also started from scratch as an ordinary college student, rose rapidly, and sat on a high enough position.

All the distance and disdain turned into an almost fanatical worship.

This was not the first time Ni Ni had seen such a scene.

In the capital, Huaqing and Peking University, countless students looked excited and applauded him.

In Beiwu, countless beauties with delicate bodies and soft bodies made secret glances at him.

Today I came to Fudan Roadshow, and I also regarded Zhou Yutang as a spiritual leader.

Ni Ni looked on with a smile, occasionally thinking wildly:

If I had not entered the entertainment industry and was still in college, I would probably respect Zhou Yutang like a god.

Even if it is a working day, it cannot stop movie fans from watching movies.

On the 28th, a working day, "The Band of Thieves" continued to report a revenue of 257 million.

On the 29th, the box office of "The Band of Thieves" reported 223 million.

After three days of release, the total box office climbed to 773 million!

At this time, Hong Kong's single-day box office has dropped to 75.87 million!

Although it still leads the National Day stalls, the gap between the two is shrinking sharply.

Maoyan has updated its box office forecast through various data changes. The box office target of "囧" has dropped from 2 billion to 1.5 billion.

The headlines of major portal websites have been taken over by the battle between Tai Jiong and the Demon Thieves.

"I will reveal to you the secret of Director Guo Fan, the Three Great Generals of Jiangdong!"

"Director Guo Fan has accumulated a lot of experience and made a blockbuster success. The billion-dollar club is a piece of cake. He will continue to sprint towards two billion!"

"Zhou Yutang's box office appeal is still strong, and the first-day box office record for domestic films has once again been set!"

I called Pei Kang and Ren Zhonglun one after another, and I could feel their joy through the phone.

China Film and Film and Television are both producers, and they have experienced the joy of taking off.

But some people are happy and some are worried.

Hong Kong's "囧" was a hit at the box office two days ago, with Xu Guang's head inflating like an inflated balloon.

Even at this time, he was still leading the entire National Day season, but he didn't feel too happy.

According to the team's statistics, the audience's reputation is seriously polarized, with a considerable number of viewers expressing dissatisfaction with the quality of the film.

Guangtou Xu ran the road show for a day and was so exhausted that he didn't even have time to press his feet, so he fell asleep in a daze.

It was as if he dreamed that the band of demon thieves were suppressing Hong Kong and beating him, and he was stepped on by Guo Fan, suddenly waking up from his sleep.

"Brother, what happened?"

The assistant asked sleepily.

"nothing."

Guangtou Xu put on his glasses and asked casually: "You can sleep a little longer and I'll get up."

"Um."

The assistant responded vaguely and immediately fell asleep.

Being an assistant to a celebrity is really not something ordinary people can do.

Helping with all kinds of errands and accompanying me on road shows, I was so exhausted.

"Seeing Bao Bei'er changed my impression of Wang Baoer."

"The embarrassing laughs are far worse than the previous two films in the "囧" series."

"Stock god Zhao Feite's acting skills are so exaggerated."

"I went to see it for the "囧" series. I'm so disappointed."

"..."

Bald Xu flipped through the online comments and was so angry that he could only retort a few words.

But at the same time, I felt a little regretful in my heart.

He remembered that Zhou Yutang said at that time,

"This story wants to express too many things, and some of the things delivered to the audience are too forced, which deviates from the core and purpose of comedy, which is to make the audience laugh."

Bald Xu sighed softly.

A few drops of water came out of the faucet, shook it, and then let it go.

The night is very cold tonight.

But his heart was even colder.

Warm fragrance and warm jade in my arms.

The ringtone on the bedside cell phone rang tenaciously for a few times before Zhou Yutang reached out and pressed it down.

When Nazha was sleeping, her thick black hair was not used to being tied up, so it was a little messy.

The suspenders of the silk pajamas gently pressed against the white shoulders.

You can see the sweet smile on Nazha's delicate face.

Her gentle breathing caused the shallow waves to ripple, and it seemed that even the air became sweet and fresh.

The other party didn't give up yet, so Zhou Yutang got up helplessly and answered the phone.

"Mr. Ye?"

"Congratulations, Mr. Zhou, this is also my last shift."

Listening to Ye Ning's relieved voice, Zhou Yutang's heart moved slightly: "Mr. Ye, have you decided where to go?"

"It's settled, Huayi, we can continue to cooperate if we have the opportunity in the future."

"If there is a chance, definitely. What about Wanda?"

Ye Ning smiled and said: "The handover of Wanda's work is basically completed, and Mr. Zeng will be with you later."

"I wish Mr. Ye all the best."

"Haha, you too."

After saying some kind words and hanging up, Zhou Yutang frowned and pondered for a long time.

Wanda Cinemas went public at the beginning of the year and now has a market value of 100 billion, making it the leading cinema chain in the country.

Ye Ning undoubtedly made great contributions. No one knows what interest disputes were involved in his resignation.

But if he wants to go to Huayi, then he will be his opponent, and there is basically no possibility of cooperation.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Nazha hugged Zhou Yutang from behind, and her soft and delicate touch interrupted his thoughts.

She was probably half asleep, and her voice was still a bit lazy and confused.

"nothing."

Holding her good sister and continuing to lie down, Nazha instinctively got into his arms, found a comfortable position, and continued to sleep sweetly.

Zhou Yutang thought for a while and sent a message to Li Shuang.

It is necessary to prepare in advance for the back-up of Zeng Maojun, the new leader of Wanda.

I had heard some gossip before, and had a vague feeling that Ye Ning was leaving.

At the launch conference of Operation Mekong, it was another Wanda executive who came, not Ye Ning, which made Zhou Yutang more certain.

Unexpectedly, he was going to Huayi.

It can only be said that everyone has their own aspirations and must respect the fate of others.

Zhou Yutang hugged Nazha's sweet and soft body to sleep.

Ten years ago, Huayi was undoubtedly the industry leader.

However, with the rise of Jiangdong, Huayi changed its development strategy and started to de-film.

The big and small Wangs were determined to play capital operations, and Wang Zhongjun even said that Huayi must have several listed companies with a market value of tens of billions within two years.

The combined market value of 300 billion is equivalent to Time Warner in America.

As a result, a stock market crash in the middle of the year directly buried half of Huayi's body. Now the market value of Huayi has dropped from the peak of 90 billion to less than 50 billion.

But I don't know.

Does this count as joining the National Army in 1949?

"'Beijing Meets Seattle: The Unbreakable Love Letter' has been successfully completed, Xue-style warmth reunites, and stills of Fan Binbin and Pan Yueming are exposed!"

At the end of September, Xue Xiaolu's new play was finally completed.

In addition, Zhou Yutang received a call from Jiang Xueluan during the roadshow,

"The price is fine, I can give it."

'Beijing Meets Seattle' has become a valuable IP.

After the previous movie was a big hit, Anle and Dongyang Mengjiangwei Film and Television Company intended to spend a huge amount of money to acquire the copyright of the TV series.

Prepare to cooperate and promote the TV series version derived from the movie of the same name.

In order to catch the traffic of "The Unbreakable Love Letter".

So they spent money to invite Mr. Xue to be the screenwriter and chief producer, and booked the handsome uncle Wu Xiubo to partner with Huo Siyan, and the cast was also reasonable.

The same is true for "Love O2O", which was a hit last year. The TV series was very popular abroad, and the film project was born in time.

Jiangdong Entertainment could not do such a project on its own. Shangshi Pictures and Cehua Media were eyeing the amazing popularity of "Love O2O".

The film copyright was acquired by Shangshi Pictures and Cehua Media for 38 million.

Jiangdong Entertainment cashed in the accumulated copyrights and made a lot of profit.

Shangshi Pictures and Cehua Media also got the ready-made popular IP movie and prepared to make a big move.

In this business, everyone feels that they have made money.

As for the subsequent hype topic, it is completely within the acceptable range.

"Brother, Shangshi is going to invite me to play the movie version of Bei Weiwei, should I accept it?"

Nazha asked, shaking Zhou Yutang's arm.

Zhou Yutang made a decision for her without questioning: "Turn it off, Warner will officially announce "The Meg" next month at the latest."

According to Zou Zhongyan's latest report, the director and the leading actor have been negotiated.

Joe Detduba, who is in charge of the "National Treasure" series, is also a well-known director in Hollywood.

The male actor is Jason Statham, who is well-known to Chinese audiences. Because he looks similar to the famous Chinese actor Guo Da, he is suspected to be his long-lost brother.

Since there are many Chinese elements in the movie "The Meg", the remaining supporting roles will be digested internally by the company first.

With such a Hollywood A-level big production, it is not a pity to give up "The Allure of the City".

"Study English well, didn't I hire a foreign teacher for you?"

"Rose is too old-fashioned."

When it comes to studying, the delicate face of good sister Nazha fell.

Ni Ni couldn't help laughing: "Chen Xiao has no schedule, and the actors in the movie version have been replaced."

"Nini, who are you going to use in the plan?"

"I heard that it's your junior sister Zheng Shuang, and Yang Yang from Yuekai Entertainment."

When Ni Ni read Zheng Shuang's name, she heard Nazha snort softly.

Pursed her lips.

Nazha really can't hide anything at all.

Back then, Shuangzi publicly admitted that she had a crush on Zhou Yutang in college while dating the oil king, and even admitted to plastic surgery in front of the media.

She is famous for her "true nature" in the circle.

Ni Ni knows what's going on.

Her boss will definitely not touch a girl like Shuangzi, no matter how beautiful she is.

She is emotionally unstable and easily explodes.

"Jia Shikai's company is open?"

"Yes, it was just opened last month. We sent out invitations at that time. Since you didn't have time, Sister Shuang went there."

"You really set up your own business."

Zhou Yutang asked with interest: "What business do you do?"

"Performing arts agency, film and television investment."

Ni Ni remembered the evaluation of "800,000 Navy Coach" and laughed softly: "Well, it's mainly entertainment marketing."

"I heard that Wang Xiaocong will make a guest appearance in the play "Allure."

"Oh?"

Zhou Yutang laughed dumbly: "Old Wang just became the richest man in China, and Xiao Wang wants to develop in the entertainment industry?"

This year, Hong Kong's Li Chaoren was defeated by Wanda Old Wang, and Wanda Xiao Wang, who has mastered the full-level reincarnation technology, is becoming more and more high-spirited.

Not long ago, he was criticized for showing off his wealth and keeping a low profile, and he began to enter the entertainment industry again. He was photographed discussing cooperation with Wanhe Tianyi and others, and then he made a guest appearance in a movie again.

"Brother, Lao Wang just praised you not long ago."

"Ah?"

Zhou Yutang was slightly stunned.

"You were still abroad at that time, look, look."

Naza handed over her phone with a daisy phone case on it like offering a treasure.

Took it and looked at it.

Wanda Lao Wang was inevitably asked about his successor in a very valuable interview.

Lao Wang was also helpless.

He only has this one child, what can he do even if he grows up wrong?

He is over 30 years old and just broke up with a female internet celebrity who runs a Taobao online store.

Does he still need to practice trumpet at his age?

It is better to hope that Xiao Wang can settle down, find a partner seriously, and create a third generation to take over.

Of course, the key to this interview is not this. Wanda Lao Wang, who has just become the richest man in China, still said some practical things.

"Now, there are BAT in the Internet, and Wanda and Vanke in private enterprises. Entrepreneurs don't have as good development opportunities as before.

But China's entertainment, sports, and tourism fields will definitely produce giants in the future. They must be combined with the Internet and use Internet marketing methods, but the core is still the entertainment, sports, and tourism industries.

The iron law of business is profit. Only by achieving profit can sustainable development be achieved.

From the perspective of asset value and market value, there is such a company in China now. It has become the industry leader and is still making progress. Zhou Yutang has done a good job. In the next few years, it will definitely be world-class."

"He has a good eye."

Naza was so proud that her eyebrows and eyes were smiling.

She suddenly felt that Lao Wang, who loved to tell the truth, looked quite pleasing to the eye.

Sweet days are always short. Zhou Yutang's road show ended. Nazha was reluctant to leave: "Brother, you only attend the road show for three days?"

"I'm going abroad." Zhou Yutang rubbed Nazha's face, which was more tender than egg custard.

"Are you talking about Dong Ge's wedding?"

"Dong Ge's wedding was already arranged in advance. I have to go."

…………

Australia, Great Barrier Reef.

The Coral Sea runs through the northeastern Queensland, from the Torres Strait in the north to the south of the Tropic of Capricorn in the south.

The coral reefs are dazzling, the sea water is so clear, and the natural scenery is pleasant.

Here.

A lively party is taking place in the resort hotel.

A serious one.

All the people who come are Dong Ge's business friends and some JD executives, not the ones who are extravagant and spendthrift.

"Zhou, Now You See Me 2 is doing very well in the North American market."

Bob had arranged this for Dong Ge several times, and this time he was invited to join in the fun. When they met, he gave Zhou Yutang a firm hug, and did not forget to greet Ni Ni:

"Nini, you are getting more and more beautiful."

"Thank you, Bob, you also look full of energy."

Ni Ni smiled back, and they praised each other lightly.

Zhou Yutang and Bob went to one side to talk, and they were still talking about the performance of Now You See Me 2 in the North American market.

The first day box office closed at 29.5 million US dollars.

When Zhou Yutang flew to Australia, domestic marketing accounts were already collectively high.

The Internet was full of exaggerated headlines such as "Sensational in North America" ​​and "Shocking the World".

This result is indeed excellent, but it is not a big hit.

This year, Hollywood has "Fast and Furious 7", "Avengers 2: Age of Ultron", "Jurassic World" and other gems.

These monsters are all super blockbusters that earned more than 60 million US dollars on the first day of release.

But considering that the cast of the Magic Pirates is basically from China, it is incredible to achieve such results in an away game in North America.

"Zhou, Hollywood is very interested in you, the mysterious Oriental entertainment super rich man. There is a lot of discussion there now."

"It's all thanks to Warner's publicity and operation."

Zhou Yutang raised his glass to Old Bob modestly.

The two talked about the progress of "La La Land" for a while. After the start of filming, the filming went smoothly.

Ni Ni came over and leaned over to whisper in his ear.

Oh, Xiao Ma Ge is here.

There are two Xiao Ma Ge in the whole of China.

I'm afraid everyone knows it.

Compared with the high-profile behavior of Mr. Da Ma, this Pony Ma is much more low-key.

This time, it's not just Xiao Ma who came, but Tencent's Liu Chih-ping also came.

There are also Zhang Lei of Gaoling Capital, Shen Nanpeng of Sequoia Capital, Bao Fan of Huaxing Capital, etc.

"Mr. Zhou, congratulations on the box office success."

"The sequel to The Thieves is very exciting."

These people, including Xiao Ma Ge, were quite enthusiastic.

Tencent's relationship with Jiangdong is a bit subtle now.

There is both cooperation and competition.

However, in the field of film and television, Jiangdong is undoubtedly the leader.

As for the others who are good at capital operation, they are all dragons among men and have outstanding vision.

As early as the starting stage of Zhou Yutang, he had tried his best to join Jiangdong.

Zhou Yutang also had big ambitions and was known as the cash king of Jiangdong. He did not give them a chance.

They all met privately and did not reveal the news, otherwise the entire film and television industry in China would be shaken.

This small gathering.

Zhou Yutang heard another shocking news that was enough to shake the capital circle
