China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 121 The anticipation is boiling, the voice of heavenly milk

mid-October.

The press conference of the new film "The Lonely Agent" was held, which attracted the attention of countless media.

Originally, Zhou Yutang wanted to keep a low profile and start filming directly, but Mr. Han had to make a big splash.

Many media reporters were invited to the scene, and a lot of drafts were sent out in advance, in order to grab the start and build momentum for the film.

[Super newcomer Zhou Yutang's new work, produced by China Film Group and Yinghuang Group, spent 8000 million to create a large-scale action drama "Lonely Agent"! 】

【International superstar joins in!Actors gather!It has been highly anticipated before the filming started! 】

[Unveil the most mysterious and powerful agent of the Celestial Dynasty for you! 】

Actually.

The total investment of "Lonely Agent" is only 5000 million.

But doing publicity is like leading troops to fight in the Three Kingdoms period. You have to blow up the numbers to attract more people's attention.

Many media reporters came to the new film conference.

The intellectual hostess first introduced the starring team of "The Lonely Agent" on stage.

The flash lights never stopped.

The main reason is that this lineup is absolutely luxurious.

Zhou Yutang himself acted as the leading actor, and standing beside him was Hongkong actor Liang Jiahui, another underworld leader Ren Dahua who was counter-killed by Liang Jiahui, and enthusiastic citizen Liu Qingyun
They are all big brother-level characters with heads and faces in the Xiangjiang film industry.

Another villain, An Zhijie, is too low-ranked, standing beside him like a minion.

Coupled with the heroine played by Fan Xiaopang, Xiaomei, who has an important role in the show, is played by a young mainland actor Zhang Zifeng.

however.

The biggest celebrity at the scene was Thai boxing champion Tony Jaa.

This time, thanks to Mr. Han’s connections, it took him US$100 million to hire Thailand’s number one martial arts star, who is quite influential on an international scale.

Those explosive muscles almost tore through the shirt on his body, and he looked like a peerless macho.

As the producers, Han Sanping, Wang Changtian, and Yang Shoucheng, the Big Three formed by the three big bosses even blinded the eyes of the media.

Big production!
Absolutely thrilling big production!

This combination directly filled the sense of anticipation of "Lonely Agent".

First, Boss Han and several other bigwigs spoke in Mandarin in turn, and expressed their enthusiasm for the film.

Then it was time for reporters to ask questions.

The two film stars Ren Dahua and Liang Jiahui were slightly surprised when they saw many reporters rushing straight to Zhou Yutang.

This pretty boy is really popular.

"Zhou Yutang, may I ask how you feel about acting opposite Hong Kong's two great movie stars this time?"

"Zhou Yutang, you are the crown prince of youth movies, why do you want to switch to action dramas?"

"Zhou Yutang, are you ready to accept Golden Harvest Zou Wenhuai's investment?"

"Everyone come one by one."

Seeing that the scene was going out of control, the hostess hurriedly came out with a microphone to maintain order.

"Zhou Yutang, you are recognized as the crown prince of youth movies, why do you suddenly want to switch to making this "The Lonely Agent", as far as I know it is an action movie?"

I don't know which dog thing gave him this nickname, Zhou Yutang was complaining crazily in his heart, but he still kept a smile on his face: "Correct me, I'm not a youth film prince, I'm just an actor, I wrote this When writing the script, I thought it was a story that could touch people, so I approached Mr. Han."

"I grew up watching the movies of Brother Hui, Brother Hua and Brother Qingyun. They are my seniors, and they are all actor-level actors. I feel honored to be able to work with these seniors this time, and I also feel When the pressure comes, I hope to learn from a few seniors.”

"Haha, Jiahe's investment? It's not convenient to disclose this. I did chat with Boss Zou for a while that day. As for what will happen, everyone will wait and see."

Flower sedan chairs carry people.

Old actors such as Liang Jiahui, Ren Dahua and Liu Qingyun who have been around for decades certainly understand this truth.

Zhou Yutang praised their actor-level acting skills, so they reciprocated, praising Zhou Yutang's amazing talent, and looked forward to working with such a talented newcomer.

Being able to be the guest of Boss Yang is really amazing talent, and most people can't do it.

Everyone blows each other's business.

Then some reporters interviewed Tony Jia, also speaking in Mandarin, and a small group of reporters interviewed young actors Zhang Zifeng, An Zhijie, and other supporting actors.

The most important thing is to besiege Zhou Yutang.

No way, whoever made him so popular in the new generation is a representative of traffic.

"You ask me how much I expect the movie to make at the box office?"

Facing the question from the Sohu Entertainment reporter, Zhou Yutang replied calmly: "My debut work has a domestic box office of 1.68 million. This movie has so many powerful actors and international martial arts superstars. I can only say that if there is no If the box office exceeds [-] million, it means that this is a failed movie."

It has already cost 8000 million to the outside world, and it will take at least 2.5 million to recover the cost, right?
It's better to round up and take the whole number, and there's nothing wrong with shouting 3 million.

There was an uproar!
You know, Zhang Yimou, the national teacher, is the only one currently released in China to get this box office. Xiaogangpao is so crazy that he dare not say that his movie box office has broken 3 million.

Ren Dahua and Liang Jiahui looked over one after another, with astonished expressions.

Enthusiastic citizen Liu Qingyun also opened his mouth, as if he couldn't believe it.

3 million at the box office, this kid has such big ambitions!
..............................

"Super rookie Zhou Yutang uttered wild words that the new movie will take 3 million box office like a bag."

"Zhou Yutang played the role of a mysterious agent of the Dragon Kingdom, and played with Xiangjiang's best movie stars."

Zhou Yutang's remarks at the press conference of the new film really aroused heated discussions.

"Yu Tang, I think it's too much, can it really have a box office of 3 million?"

At the opening ceremony, Fan Xiaopang came over to express his doubts.

"I don't want you to think, I want me to think."

Zhou Yutang glanced at her.

"If the box office really exceeds 3 million, how about I agree to one condition?"

Fan Xiaopang flew over with a wink.

In fact, apart from the "Perfect" filmed with Zhang Ziyi this year, she also has a movie "Jing Wu Men".

This is a work co-starred by Fan Xiaopang and Chen Xiaochun, directed by Fu Huayang, and written by Ning Caishen.

With such a golden lineup, and the addition of the hip-hop elements that are very trendy nowadays, it was able to earn 2800 million box office.

Although the word of mouth is poor, it still makes money. The production company in Xiangjiang is already rushing to arrange "Fist of Fury 2".
If this movie can really earn [-] million at the box office, then she is really making money.

Although she didn’t get a single cent for her acting credits, if she had the label of a heroine with a box office of over 3 million, how many press releases would she be able to issue?

"Hey, Yu Tang, people on the Internet say that you have strong opinions on Hong Kong. Why do you still hire so many actors from Hong Kong?"

Fan Xiaopang raised his hand to touch Zhou Yutang's arm, and whispered.

"Don't talk nonsense, pay attention to unity."

Zhou Yutang was very conscious and glanced at the goblin lightly.

In fact.

He does have some opinions on Wu Baige and Li Rengang, because he is a loyal fan of the Three Kingdoms.

When he was in elementary school, Comrade Zhou collected a complete set of the four great classics at home. Zhou Yutang loved "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" alone, and read it over and over again.

The classic in my heart was filmed like this, Zhou Yutang brought some emotions to answer the reporter's questions about "Red Cliff" and "Dragon Unloading Armor" in an interview.

As a result, when it was posted on the Internet, it became that he had opinions on the Hong Kong circle.

Zhou Yutang was also very helpless, and explained: "I have a problem with those people in the Xiangjiang entertainment industry who have their eyes above the top. The Xiangjiang actors I work with are all very professional and good actors."

Needless to say, Liang Jiahui has good acting skills, inexpensive film salary, and professional enough.

Ren Dahua is also a powerful actor, and Liu Qingyun, an enthusiastic citizen, is also a drama idiot. These few people are good.

There are many Xiangjiang people in the crew of "The Lonely Agent", so Zhou Yutang held a launching ceremony.

Soon the process was over, and the formal shooting stage began.

Compared with the small fights in "Those Years", this time it is a real big production.

There are more than 300 people in the entire crew, and the labor cost is a lot of money, plus the actors' remuneration and props.

Before the filming started, Zhou Yutang treated guests to a meal, mainly to build a good relationship with these senior film kings.

Han Sanping and Yang Shoucheng also showed up, plus Zhou Yutang is one of the film investors, Liang Jiahui, Ren Dahua and Liu Qingyun are all very professional veteran actors, and they know what they should do.

Zhou Yutang divided the crew into two groups.

In the first group, director Chen Musheng brought Feng Yuanwen, the director of photography who has worked with him for nearly 20 years, to shoot some big action scenes.

In the second group, Zhou Yutang handed over to the assistant director Wen Muye and the photographer Li Bingqiang. These two also cooperated tacitly in "Those Years".

The first day of official shooting was mainly about adjusting the production schedule, and then making final adjustments and modifications to the scenes, props, and costumes.

Liu Qingyun, an enthusiastic citizen, was quite surprised as he watched Zhou Yutang command the dispatch with a walkie-talkie.He really didn't expect Zhou Yutang to be so demanding about the details of filming.

The first scene is the night scene.

This scene is the beginning of the plot.

The leader of Sir, played by Liu Qingyun, is in ambush in the car, preparing to arrest criminal gangs selling drugs in nightclubs.

Needless to say, Liu Qingyun's acting skills, the Sir he played in "Dark War" can be regarded as a classic in the film industry.

Several of his buddies in the car are also acting online.

Liao Qizhi, Ng Zhuoxi and Xie Tianhua are all familiar faces.
Yuan Hong, a well-connected person, sneaks in and plays a member of Liu Sir's team.

The first scene cooperated well and passed quickly.

Then, the camera cuts.

Explain Fan Xiaopang's identity as a romantic dancer in the play, and how she accidentally overheard the phone calls of criminal gangs, and then became greedy, stole the drugs, and wanted to sell them privately, which promoted the development of the following plot.

Fan Xiaopang finished her performance and walked into the backstage lounge of the nightclub wearing a sequined skirt and high heels.

Before Zhou Yutang's role, he stayed behind the monitor and served as Chen Musheng's assistant director. By the way, he secretly learned a few tricks of director Chen's housekeeping skills.

"Yu Tang, what do you think?"

Director Chen Musheng has a good temper, and he communicated a lot with Zhou Yutang. The two often discussed shooting skills.

Zhou Yutang rested his chin in his hand, looked at the monitor screen, and made gestures: "Is it better to twist the hips a little more? We want to highlight the identity of this dancer more clearly, so that the audience received this message"

In human terms, it's not coquettish enough.

"Binbin, do it again according to Yu Tang's idea."

Director Chen nodded, and called Fan Binbin over for a brief exchange.

Fan Xiaopang is also an old actor, so he quickly understood Zhou Yutang's intentions and didn't say anything.

After accepting this play, I knew the nature of my role. They are all professional actors. What can't I let go of?
Originally, there was another scene where her organs were harvested by a criminal group, and her body was thrown naked in the trunk of the car, and then Zhou Yutang discovered her.

Because the scale is too big, this scene was slightly changed, and the audience was disappointed.
After a little adjustment.

Fan Xiaopang gradually turned on the flirtatious mode.

Zoom in.

Follow her swaying back.

Emphasis is placed on her buttocks.

Round and upright.

Zhou Yutang seemed to see the eyes of the male staff at the scene focusing and shining.

What is a stunner?
Still a coquettish stunner.

That's it for Fan Xiaopang, acting in his true colors.

99% of men will be attracted after seeing this shot.

Zhou Yutang stroked his chin and nodded slightly.

He decided to edit this scene as a trailer at that time, which should attract many LSPs.

The next section was shot several times.

Fan Xiaopang was changing clothes in the dark locker room. He was putting on a red coat when he accidentally overheard the phone call of Yin Ziwei, a member of the criminal gang, dealing drugs.

"Well, I've got the goods, I'll leave right away"

Fan Xiaopang is greedy for big students, and his heart is not as good as action.

So he picked up the electric shock baton he was carrying and stunned Yin Ziwei from behind while he was changing clothes.

Snapped!
Yin Ziwei's body fell down as soon as he said it, and he twitched for a while, and his performance was quite good.

Fan Xiaopang opened his backpack and found a large bag of flour wrapped in a transparent film in the shape of a brick.

"Crack, do it again!"

Director Chen Musheng called stop again, this time he directly pointed out the problem:
"Binbin, when you perform this part, your expressions can be a little richer. Think about your character setting. You are a dancer at the bottom of a nightclub, and you are addicted to drugs. You take such risks because of greed. The thing is, when you get this bag of drugs, you feel panicked and excited at the same time, because it’s a lot of money.”

"Thank you Director Chen."

Fan Xiaopang nodded slightly, and took the initiative to apologize to Yin Ziwei: "Brother Ziwei, I'm sorry."

She got stuck here, and Yin Ziwei was about to retake the shot, falling over and over again.

"It's trivial."

Yin Ziwei had a good temper and just smiled and dusted himself off.

This guy is also a professional actor.

Zhou Yutang and Chen Musheng discussed the next shooting, and let Fan Xiaopang adjust himself.

In fact, this is the sequelae of rolling drama.

When an actor takes several plays at the same time, it is easy to mess up the rhythm of the performance.

Because the roles you play in each play are different, which requires the actors to adjust themselves.

Fan Xiaopang just came out of the crew of "Perfect" in the international chapter, and then he joined the group non-stop. In that play in the international chapter, he played a big star. The difference between cloud and mud is not very natural to act.

However, Fan Xiaopang's acting skills have been certified because of the movie "Apple" that won the award.

After several trial shots, it quickly entered the state.

After electrocuting Yin Ziwei, she was short of breath, and with trembling hands, she opened the travel bag in the dressing room and took out the bag of brick-shaped flour.

His mouth was slightly open, his expression was fascinated, and he seemed to be dazzled by excitement.

She is a dancer at the bottom of a nightclub and a drug addict at the same time. She knows that the flour brick she got is worth at least a few million!

But soon, panic appeared on that delicate face with heavy makeup.

Thinking of the terrible consequences of being caught by a criminal organization, Fan Xiaopang put the bag of flour and bricks into his arms, and hurried out the door in a panic.

"OK, perfect, call it a day!"

Chen Musheng nodded in satisfaction.

After filming the night scene, we called it a day.

Zhou Yutang invited Liu Qingyun to have supper with several cast members.

This is also a fine tradition of Hong Kong films in the previous era. In the golden age of Hong Kong films, famous actors were filming films almost every day from morning to night.

Filming is a very energy-consuming thing, so after work is over at night, we will gather at the food stalls for supper.

Zhou Yutang is an investor and the leading actor. On the one hand, please have a snack to bring everyone closer. On the other hand, he and the enthusiastic citizen Liu Qingyun get along very well.

"A Tang, do you know Brother Feng?"

During the meeting, we talked about Feng Boyuan, and Mr. Liu, an enthusiastic citizen, was very surprised: "At that time when we were filming "The Great Times", I remember having supper with Brother Feng. I heard that he was working in the Mainland."

"Brother Bo was the producer of my first play "Want to See You", and he took good care of me at the time."

"That's really destined, touch one!"

Liu Qingyun also became popular after "Big Time", and Zhou Yutang also became popular with "Want to See You".

They all happen to be related to Feng Boyuan.

Sometimes the relationship is drawn closer at the dinner table.

It happened that through Feng Boyuan, the two chatted about "The Great Times", this TV series left a deep impression on Zhou Yutang.

The little Jew played by Zhou Huimin should be the perfect form of the wife that countless men dream of.

Enthusiastic citizen Liu Qingyun is a winner in life both on and off screen. He was with the little Jew in "The Big Era", and off screen directly married Long Jiwen, the eldest daughter of a wealthy family played by Guo Aiming. She was the Miss Hong Kong champion in the 90s, and her gold content was not needed. Mention more.

"Brother Qingyun, I saw that you were taking notes on the script with a pen when you were talking about the script in the meeting today."

"Yeah, I'm old and my memory is declining, so I'm not as good as you young people. I need to write down the important points of some characters. Ah Tang, your script is really well written."

"Where you are old, you are in the prime of life, and you will have to rely on Brother Qingyun to take care of you in the future."

Zhou Yutang said modestly.

Liu Qingyun had already been nominated for Best Actor at the Academy Awards for several times before, and was nominated again last year, and finally got his wish to win the best actor trophy. This year, he was nominated again for "Detective".

What Zhou Yutang admires most is his professional attitude.

Today, when he was filming a night scene, he came to the set early, put on his makeup and didn't play with his mobile phone, just practiced his lines silently with his own script.

This is the feeling of the older generation of filmmakers.

Cooperating with such a professional veteran actor also made Zhou Yutang full of confidence in this movie.

After supper, I returned to the hotel and took a shower.

As soon as Zhou Yutang lay down, he received a call from Liu Tianxian. Hearing the soft voice of milk,
　I am convinced, a brother voted for 16 monthly tickets yesterday

　　Thank you monthly ticket support
