China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 135 The general trend is here, shining golden horse
“You don’t have to prove yourself to others to be who you want to be.”

With an understatement smile on Zhou Yutang's face, he stretched out his hand and plucked his chopsticks: "Eat, the spicy food won't taste good when it gets cold."

Tianxian was very willful and asked her what she wanted to eat in the car. She couldn't forget Malatang.

Apparently Aunt Liu was very strict in the past, so she had little chance to come into contact with this kind of junk food.

Then I had to ask the assistant to pack a portion and then take it to a private room of a high-end restaurant to eat so as not to cause a commotion.

Looking at the shocked look in the waiter's eyes when she saw the two people entering the box, she probably had already imagined 800 episodes of youth idol love plots in her mind.

"Xiao Zhou, do you often eat this?"

Liu Yifei was curious and stirred the food in the bowl with her chopsticks.

"I can't say it's often, I just eat it occasionally. There are quite a lot of delicious food near our school, such as Laobian Dumpling House and braised chicken and rice."

Zhou Yutang started to talk as he spoke.

I haven't eaten Malatang for a long time, but when I ate it suddenly, I felt it was really delicious, but the assistant forgot to add spicy food, which was almost embarrassing.

“Wow, it turns out this is Malatang, it’s so delicious!”

Liu Yifei felt like she had discovered a new world.

Wouldn't that be delicious?

It's full of technology and hard work.

The food was served quickly in the restaurant, and Zhou Yutang also ordered several dishes such as boiled fish fillet and Dengying beef.

Although he is from Jiangsu Province, his taste is usually strong, and this Sichuan cuisine is quite in line with his personal taste.

Just seeing Liu Yifei not touching the boiled fish fillets, she was a little surprised and said: "This boiled fish fillets are quite good, you can try it."

Liu Yifei frowned, but looked a little curious, and nodded slightly: "It looks quite appetizing, let me try it."

With her slender fingers slightly raised, she used her chopsticks to pick up a piece of tender fish fillet.

I didn't dare to eat more, I just opened my lips lightly and took a bite.

In an instant, that beautiful face burned like a red glow.

Hiss!

Liu Yifei leaned back unexpectedly, opened her mouth, spit out her sweet tongue, and kept fanning the wind with her hands:
There was no chili pepper in the Malatang just now, so the spiciness is not on the same level as this Sichuan style boiled fish fillet.

"You can't eat spicy food?"

"Who said this is okay and not very spicy."

Liu Yifei is still showing off.

Well, if it weren't for that plain little face that was as red as rouge, Zhou Yutang would have almost believed it.

After pouring her a glass of coconut juice, Zhou Yutang said, "Drink some of this to relieve the spicy taste."

woohoo~~~
Liu Yifei drank a large glass of coconut water before she recovered.

Huan Tan's mouth was slightly open, and he kept fanning the wind with his delicate hands, his cheeks were all red.

Realizing that Zhou Yutang was looking at her embarrassment, Liu Yifei blushed even more and asked in a low voice, "Was I embarrassed just now?"

"It's good. It used to be too fairy-like, but now it looks like a girl."

Zhou Yutang moved the remaining non-spicy dishes in front of her, "Just eat these dishes, and leave the boiled fish fillets to me."

Liu Yifei, who cannot eat spicy food, is very fond of spicy hotpot and also likes to eat saliva chicken.

The happy time is always short, after dinner is over.

Zhou Yutang handed Liu Tianxian to the female assistant sent by Aunt Liu.

After communicating privately, Aunt Liu listened to the advice and has gradually handed over the management of Tianxian's brokerage to professionals.

Liu Tianxian rolled down the window, waved to Zhou Yutang, and said silently in his heart:
Xiao Zhou, I still want to thank you.

..............................

This December, Poet Chen is leading the charge.

The great director's legacy is still there. "Mei Lanfang" released 1400 copies, even more than "Red Cliff". It directly took in 1500 million yuan at the box office on the first day, which was higher than "The Movie" in the same period last year.

The industry was shocked.

This box office has broken a new record for domestic literary films.

For example, the films of Chief Jia and others are also literary films, and the total box office of the entire film is not as high as the first-day box office of "Mei Lanfang".

but.

Everyone in the industry knows that there is something wrong with the box office. On the first day of the 6-hour screening, the national box office could be estimated at about 550 million, and on the second day the national box office was 950 million.

Immediately after, "Ip Man" came in a big way, and its first day of release coincided with the weekend. The box office on the first day soared to 1400 million, and it also exceeded [-] million.

"The domestic film market is really hot."

Tian Ming said with emotion when he chatted with Zhou Yutang about the domestic film market.

"What, Brother Ming, do you also want to make a movie?"

Zhou Yutang, who had just flown from the capital to Shanghai, sat in the back seat of Tian Ming's Mercedes-Benz and asked with a smile.

"I'll forget it. I have an uncle who works at Shanghai Film Group. He always talks about you. You'll see him at dinner tonight."

Tian Ming waved his hand.

Shanghai Film Group is also a major player in the domestic film and television industry.

The main purpose of Zhou Yutang's return to Magic City was to have a meeting with the production team of The Voice, and then meet Liu Shishi, and fly to the province to attend the Golden Horse Awards ceremony. By the way, he was invited by the elders of Tian Ming's family to have a casual meal at his house.

Before the launch of The Voice, Mango Channel was recognized as the king of variety shows in China. "Happy Camp" probably maintained an average ratings of about 2%, and another popular variety show "Tian Tian Shang Shang" had a ratings of 1.8%.

The Voice has suddenly emerged. It has only been aired for a few episodes, and the average ratings have already exceeded 3%. As the popularity grows, the ratings are rising all the way, and are even expected to exceed 4%.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a popular variety show.

As long as the reputation is stabilized, a national music variety show will be born.

Magic City TV cooperated with Zhou Yutang and really made a lot of money this year.

There are ace variety shows like "The Voice" at hand, and "Latent" is also broadcast on Shanghai TV. Now it has made it into the top ten of national satellite TV, and the TV station executives are celebrating.

Tian Ming also gained fame and fortune.

of course.

It was Zhou Yutang who benefited the most.

Not only has he gained fame and fortune, his status has been greatly improved, but he still has the copyright to "The Voice". When the time comes, he can have more than one fish with one fish, sell it abroad, and earn dollars and pounds.

"Yu Tang, over in South Korea, KBS has sent people to the TV station to have preliminary contact with the company. They have the intention to introduce this program, but the specific details need to be discussed there."

"Let me go over there. This time I am going to Wan Province to attend the Golden Horse Awards Ceremony, and I will also go to South Korea on the way."

Zhou Yutang smiled lightly.

In fact, the geographical location of South Korea is just above Ben Province, and it only takes about an hour or two by plane.

His trip to South Korea this time was also made by Li Shuang in advance.

Mainly because of the relationship with SHOWBOX some time ago, Mao Jianxin and Song Xiaotao, several team leaders responsible for makeup and lighting at the studio, were sent there to exchange and learn.

Zhou Yutang also stopped by to see the operation status of the Jiangdong Studio branch there.

"Yu Tang, did you really have dinner with the person you can see on TV?"

When Liu Shishi asked this question, his mouth opened slightly and he looked straight at Zhou Yutang.

There seemed to be disbelief written on that gentle and possible little face.

"Just had a meal."

Zhou Yutang felt a little funny and pulled Liu Shishi into his arms.

It doesn't feel right.

We haven't seen each other for a while, and Liu Shishi has lost some weight. After listening to her talk, I realized that she really has a lot of travel recently.

There is also a TV series to be filmed, as well as various commercial performances, and the platform to lead new people in the company. Even going back to the province to attend the Golden Horse Awards ceremony is a leave.

As he spoke, Liu Shishi switched the TV station to Magic City TV.

"Watch the sound!"

"Do you have any supporting singers?"

Zhou Yutang put his arms around the blind sister's waist and asked slightly curiously.

"of course."

Liu Shishi twisted around and found a more comfortable position to lean against in Zhou Yutang's arms. He said with interest: "I personally like Wu Mochou and Jike Junyi. Male singers Jin Zhiwen and Xu Song are also good."

Zhou Yutang chuckled and said, "I know Jin Zhiwen, a very capable singer."

Liu Shishi reacted and looked at Zhou Yutang suspiciously, "Yes, I remember you said that you even went to his house for dinner. You don't know how to do it, right?"

"It all depends on strength. Zhiwen is already very strong, okay? But you do have a good vision. Wu Mochou and Jike Junyi are also very strong."

Zhou Yutang angrily slapped the blind sister on the butt gently.

Jin Zhiwen took the stage and sang a song called "Crazy for Love" by Milk Tea, and his performance was quite amazing. This kind of singing skills is definitely the best among the contestants.

"What about Xu Song?" Liu Shishi asked curiously.

"Xu Song from the Princess Team is a composer and singer, and his creative ability is the best among the contestants. However, his live singing skills are not up to par, and he may not make it to the end."

Zhou Yutang begins to spoil the story.

We talked about it during a meeting with the production team of "The Voice" today.

The selection of The Voice is based on live singing skills. Nearly half of the first season of the program has been broadcast. The students with the best singing skills know it by heart, but the eliminated contestants also have a chance.

Xu Song went on stage to sing "The Constellation Book" written by himself. This song has entered the top ten of the QQ music rankings and is very popular.

Xu Liang also sang a song called "Chest", which was also composed by himself.

These two are both singer-songwriters, and their live performance is not as good as that of powerful singers such as Jin Zhiwen and Liang Bo.

But their creative ability is really amazing.

Mingjie Company has established a brokerage department and has signed Xu Song and Xu Liang in advance.

There are also Wu Mochou and Jike Junyi, whom Liu Shishi likes, and the company is also talking about them.

The financial contract conditions given by the company are relatively loose in the industry, and the resource advantage is obvious. Moreover, with full respect for the singer's wishes, the company will help contact commercial performances.

The most important thing is to provide them with good creative conditions. If they succeed, we will help them set up a music studio in the form of equity participation to increase the company's influence.

Contestants come to participate in The Voice for a good development platform. Now that there is such an opportunity to become famous quickly, smart people know how to choose.

Of course, if the players have their own ideas, the company will not force them. It will be enough to capture a few important talents and let the rest fend for themselves.

"By the way, Yu Tang, Lao Hu accepted "The Myth" and he said you recommended him for that drama? What's going on?"

"Ying Huang's Yang always wanted me to play the leading role. I wasn't very interested in the story, so I casually mentioned it to Mr. Yang and asked Lao Hu to take the role."

"Old nonsense, let me thank you properly."

Zhou Yutang became interested as soon as he heard this, raised his eyebrows and asked: "Then how are you going to thank me?"

Liu Shishi: "."

on the plane.

Liu Shishi wore an eye mask and had a sweet smile on her lips while sleeping.

Last night, it was better to say goodbye than newlyweds, and we were a little bit too hesitant. We kept talking until about 3 o'clock in the morning before going to bed.I got up early in the morning to catch a flight, so I had to catch up on sleep during the flight.

Zhou Yutang is full of energy and is conceiving a script.

Two assistants, Mao Xiaoyu and Taozi, got together. The two girls chatted very well and both felt sorry for the good voice singer who was eliminated last night.

Li Shuang and Cai Yinong sat together and chatted about work:

"Xiao Shuang, when will the movie "The Lonely Agent" be released?"

"It's still in post-production. I heard that the rough cut has more than two hours of content, and it needs to be compressed a little more."

"Besides "Classmates", do you have any projects in your studio recently? We can collaborate on them."

"Haha, there is a movie adapted from a youth novel, but it has been negotiated with Hua Yi. This is what Yu Tang has discussed privately with Mr. Wang."

After this trip to Wan Province, I will go to South Korea for inspection, and Li Shuang will also go there. Cai Yinong's eyes lit up when he heard about the movie project, and he couldn't wait to ask: "What do you mean, Yu Tang will act by himself?"

She really tasted the sweetness.

Zhou Yutang's "Those Years" brought out Liu Shishi, who rose to prominence.

Now Liu Shishi is the most competitive candidate for this year's Four Little Girls, and even beats Yang Mi. This makes Cai Yinong so happy that he can't sleep for several nights.

"Huayi is co-producing this drama with us. Yu Tang is not acting. He seems to be writing another script and will also act in Han Sanping's tribute film."

"You are developing too fast."

"This is the development direction set by Yu Tang. I am only responsible for executing it." Li Shuang smiled slightly.

Cai Yinong glanced at Zhou Yutang.

I feel deeply in my heart.

I used to call him Xiao Zhou, but now I really have to change my name to Mr. Zhou.

Zhou Yutang's status is not what it used to be.

From just one "The Voice" variety show, he made more money than Tangren Film and Television's annual revenue.

It also deepened the relationship with Modu TV. Now everyone in the circle knows that Mr. Tian, ​​the boss of Modu Mingjie, has a close relationship with Zhou Yutang.

Cai Yinong received news from Huo Wenxi from Yinghuang and decided to cast Hu Ge as the leading actor in the "Myth" TV series because of what Zhou Yutang said in front of Mr. Yang.

Then I suddenly realized.

Tangren Film and Television has begun to look up to Jiangdong Film and Television Studio.

..............................

The Golden Horse Award, the Golden Rooster Award, and the Academy Award are known as the three highest achievements in Chinese films.

However, the Golden Rooster Award has a governmental overtone, and the local protection of the Academy Awards is relatively serious. Although the Golden Horse Awards also have various problems, they are still quite convincing for now.

This persuasiveness is relatively speaking.

In other words, all awards in the world, including Oscars, are not absolutely fair and impartial as long as they are affected by human factors.

Before Zhou Yutang came, he exchanged opinions with Chen Guofu and teacher Tian Zhuangzhuang.

This year's "Those Years" youth storm swept across the Taiwan Strait and three places, creating a box office miracle, but there was also a local movie "Cape No. [-]" in Wan Province.

This film directed by Wei Desheng came out of nowhere and immediately caused a huge sensation in the local area of ​​​​Wan Province.

Moreover, this movie was not released in the mainland due to certain elements, and it also gained an advantage in public opinion. Many film critics even advocated that this was a loss for mainland audiences. In addition, Director Wei is a native of Benzhou, so it must be necessary. Taking advantage of Zhou Yutang.

Zhou Yutang's mentality was very stable.

Anyway, I’m here, so I might as well feel the atmosphere of the awards ceremony.

This time I came to attend the Golden Horse Awards, and the makeup team from Jiangdong Studio also came with me.

Zhou Yutang usually doesn't like to wear makeup, but she still has to do it on these important occasions.

Not long after he finished filming "The Lonely Agent", his hair has not grown out yet and is still short, which saves a lot of effort on the hairstyle.

Today I am wearing a high-end black slim-fit suit provided by the Armani brand, which is luxurious in a low-key manner.

Liu Shishi wore a simple but uniquely designed white suspender dress with long black hair shawl, which perfectly outlined her superior figure.

Elegant and refined, elegant and gentle.

Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall.

The red carpet ceremony started at [-] p.m., all the guests took their seats in the infield at [-]:[-] p.m., and the awards ceremony officially kicked off at [-]:[-] p.m.

The stars shine in Taipei.

Zhou Yutang took Liu Shishi's hand and got out of the nanny's car.

Click!Click!
On both sides of the red carpet, flashing lights were shining crazily.

At this moment, Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi seemed to have become shining stars and the center of attention of countless people at the scene.

Zhou Yutang was slightly surprised.

Unexpectedly, there are many fans here in Wan Province.

Fans burst into shouts of support one after another.

You can hear shouts of the names "Zhou Yutang" and "Liu Shishi", as well as the names of the characters played by Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi in the movie.

Shi Shi was probably a little nervous, and her little hands were a little tight. Zhou Yutang patted the back of her hand to comfort her.

"Zhou Yutang, your "Those Years" received four nominations tonight. What do you think?"

"Of course I'm very happy to be nominated, because it's recognition for me. I don't know if I can win the award."

Zhou Yutang smiled and responded appropriately.

The host on the periphery of the program interviewed Liu Shishi again. Shishi gradually calmed down and behaved calmly and generously.

Behind Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi were Zhou Xun and Gui Lunmei.

The two also wore black and white and walked together on the red carpet, which also caused a wave of exclamations from fans.

The female host from the periphery went up to interview Young Master Zhou. Zhou Xun looked around with an elf-like smile. His eyes paused for a moment when he saw Zhou Yutang, and then blurted out:

"A lot of people."

This sister's painting style is unique and is incompatible with the various female stars competing for beauty on the scene.

Zhou Yutang has received professional training and does not laugh under normal circumstances.

But at this time, the corners of his mouth still couldn't help but reveal a slight arc.

It was rumored that Mr. Zhou was the top performer for domestic entertainment actresses, and he had a certain halo. I didn't expect that it would be quite funny to see him in real life.

Entering the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, Zhou Yutang's position was relatively far back. This position also reflected his seniority and status.

For example, Liu Tianwang, who was undoubtedly sitting in the front row, was talking to the Kung Fu Emperor Jet Li next to him with a smile on his face.

Sitting next to them were Marshal Bi Jin Chengwu and director Chen Kexin, who were also communicating with each other with their heads down.

Tonight, "The Movie" received 12 nominations. If nothing else happens, it will be the biggest winner of this year's Golden Horse Awards.

Wan Sheng's "Cape No. [-]" also received many nominations. The location was not far from him, but Zhou Yutang glanced at it and didn't recognize any of them.

On the Mainland "Assembly" crew, Feng Xiaogang probably felt that there was no hope for the best director, so he stayed in Beijing to prepare for the release of the movie "If You Are the One". This time, Wang Zhonglei led the team, and Zhang Hanyu was nervously restless. He relied on "Assembly" The outstanding performance in "No. [-]" also received a nomination for Best Actor.

There was some expectation and longing on everyone's faces.

to be frank.

They all came to the award ceremony and pretended that they didn't want to win the award, but that was all false.

Who doesn’t want to hold the trophy under the spotlight?

Who doesn't want to become famous overnight?
Zhou Yutang thought too.

When you think about it, you have to calm down.

Zhou Yutang loosened the two buttons on his collar, folded his legs together, and occasionally shook the toes of his shoes.

Liu Shishi beside him seemed a little excited.

She held the hem of her skirt tightly with her little hands and stared blankly at the stage.

Zhou Yutang looked at her nervous and charming look and couldn't help but smile.

"Yu Tang, why are you not nervous at all?"

Liu Shishi seemed to notice Zhou Yutang's calmness, turned his head and spoke in his ear.

The warm breath seemed to carry an indescribable aroma.

Zhou Yutang's lips curled up in a gentle arc: "Tonight is all about participation. Just think of us as just people who come to watch the fun. Maybe you won't be so nervous."

"There's a chance, we have four nominations!"

Liu Shishi rolled her eyes at Zhou Yutang, raised her slender white fingers, and counted them one by one: "Best New Director, Best New Actor, Best Original Song, Best Actress"

"You want to win the Best Actress Award?"

Zhou Yutang looked at Liu Shishi's expression with a narrow smile.

to be frank.

He didn't quite understand what the organizing committee was thinking.

Maybe Liu Shishi contributed to the peak of his career and reminded the old judges of his first love.

But nominations are nominations. It cannot be said that there is little hope of winning the award, but it can only be said that I will definitely run for it.

Liu Shishi is a newcomer who has just debuted. Do you still expect the Golden Horse Awards organizing committee to award the Best Actress award to her?
What do those old-timers who have waited for several generations think?
Zhou Yutang knew clearly.

As for other awards, I hope to win one or two.

"You're so indebted!"

Liu Shishi's dark and bright eyes narrowed, and he instantly caught the meaning of Zhou Yutang's smile. He really wanted to pounce on the lion and bite him.

Fortunately, there were cameras at the scene, so Liu Shishi didn't dare to be presumptuous, so he could only give Zhou Yutang a subtle move with his elbow.

The two were playing around below, and the award ceremony finally began.

Today's host is Zheng Yuling, partnering with black Chen Jianzhou.

The process of the Golden Horse Awards is copied from the Oscars, but it is not as lengthy as the Oscars. The judges of this year's Golden Horse Awards seem to be biased towards promoting newcomers. It can be seen from the nomination list that "Cape No. 11" received [-] nominations, sweeping both sides of the Taiwan Strait. "Those Years" from the three places also received four nominations.

Starting from some less important awards, there are also stage performances by Fahrenheit. This provincial male idol group that copied TVXQ is now quite popular in the mainland.

Zhou Yutang thought that when he returned to South Korea, he would have to ask the old man Li Xiuman for a signed album by Dongshen. Shu Chang strongly requested it.

soon.

The main event is coming.

Zheng Yuling introduced in Mandarin that she was not very familiar with: "The following is the 45th Golden Horse Award for Best New Actor. My guest is Zhang Zhen, Zhou Xun."

"Chie Tanaka "Cape No. [-]""

"Pan Qinyu's "Awkward Boy""

"Zhou Yutang's "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years""

"Jiang Shengmin's "Jumping Grid""

Zhang Zhen announced the nomination list.

Highlights from several movies began to play on the big screen.

Zhou Yutang also lowered his crossed legs and looked at the stage with flashing eyes, his expression slightly expectant.
