China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 46 Dameiyuan, That Night!
The shocked gazes of Huang Xiaoming and Gao Yuanyuan all fell on Zhou Yutang.

"Every actor has a dream of making a movie. I want to try it too."

Zhou Yutang shrugged his shoulders, and replied with a light smile: "When Teacher Xue was filming "Want to See You", I served as her assistant director. At that time, I had an urge to make my own movies in the future."

In fact, there is an invisible and invisible chain of contempt in the current domestic entertainment.

Movie circle > TV drama circle > variety show circle.

Liu Tianxian is a good example.

After the two TV series Xianjian and Shendiao have accumulated enough popularity, Aunt Liu sharpened her head and wanted Liu Tianxian to switch to filming and move to the big screen.

"Xiaotang, making a movie is very different from making a TV series. The risk is very high. You have to think about it carefully."

Huang Xiaoming also couldn't accept Zhou Yutang's unrestrained thinking, and felt that his younger brother might have been a little popular recently, so he was a little bit drifting away. He wanted to pull this impulsive little brother back from his lost way, and persuaded him earnestly:

"Based on my personal experience, you'd better make a few more TV series to consolidate your fan base, and wait until you have a certain fan base before thinking about making movies."

"Xiao Ming is right."

Gao Yuanyuan also deeply agrees.

"You have to know that making movies is completely different from making TV dramas. After all, TV dramas can be watched by turning on the TV without everyone spending a penny, while movies require the audience to pay real money out of their pockets to go to the cinema to watch your movies. So it was really, really hard.”

When Brother Xiaoming said this, his tone was a bit sad.

After making his debut in "The Son of Man", his star journey has been smooth, and it's not that he hasn't thought about climbing to a higher level in the film circle.

Then I made a movie by the big brother Hong Jingbao in the Hong Kong circle. The result can't be said to be a hit, but it can also be said to have disappeared.

Later, he took over Director Feng's "Night Banquet", forming a super invincible and luxurious lineup with the international chapter, handsome Azu, and Ge You.

The results of it?
It was released last year, and there was a lot of criticism.

The domestic box office cannot recover the cost. If it is not for the subsequent overseas release and the profit, Huayi's big and small kings are always afraid to vomit blood.

Now when Brother Xiaoming talks about movies, he feels a little dark in his heart.

"Making a movie is really not that easy, Yu Tang, you have to think about it carefully."

Gao Yuanyuan also persuaded very seriously, and she took her friends around her as an example.

Some made a movie and lost everything, some sold their house to pay off their debts, some failed and jumped off a building, and some simply disappeared from the circle.

We are all friends, so we should be persuaded.

In short, the meaning is also in place.

The water in the film industry is very deep, brother, you are still young, so you can't grasp it.

"Hehe, thank you Brother Xiaoming and Sister Yuanyuan, I will think about it when I go back."

When Zhou Yutang said this, he had already made up his mind.

These days, even fish sellers know that the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish.

He wants to make progress, and he wants to make progress quickly, so he can't follow the steps.

Only by daring to walk the road that others have not gone before, can we harvest a different kind of beautiful scenery.

"One step at a time, let's take it slowly, you are still young, but now you are very powerful."

Huang Xiaoming's emotional intelligence is still very high, and he praised Zhou Yutang without any trace.

As for the investment in "Want to See You", at least it brought him at least twice the income, which can be said to be quite impressive.

The only pity is that Zhou Yutang was not impressed by him and was hired under his command, but was planning to start his own studio.

"Yu Tang is indeed very thoughtful and excellent."

Gao Yuanyuan also felt a little strange in her heart, and only after getting in touch with him did she realize that Zhou Yutang was really a treasured boy.

She is a bit of a literary artist herself, and she admires talented men, not to mention that Zhou Yutang is so talented, it's fine to be talented, she speaks nicely, and even has such a top-notch appearance.

Ordinary people can only silently like stars and support them secretly, but it is different for people like Gao Yuanyuan.

They are all insiders, and during this period of time, Da Meiyuan doesn't have much work. She has been following the drama "Want to See You" very much, and found Huang Xiaoming to inquire about the news, and asked him to act as an intermediary to contact Zhou Yutang and come out to meet.

Then there was the game like today.

Zhou Yutang also likes to communicate with her mature, gentle and beautiful sister, chatting about music, literature, and film art. They have a common language.

These two people can't say that they hit it off at first sight, or they can say that they met each other later.

"Xiaotang, do you still have a suitable TV script in your hand? If there is a chance, we can continue to cooperate."

After returning to the topic, Huang Xiaoming asked suddenly.

He is now the number one student in domestic entertainment. Apart from being an actor, he also has another identity, that is, an investment businessman.

Although I don't like Zhou Yutang's movies, it is undeniable that this Nortel junior is extremely talented, and he has already tasted the sweetness of cooperating with him once, so he wants to eat it again.

"Brother Xiaoming, to tell you the truth, my studio doesn't have any TV scripts to shoot in the short term."

Zhou Yutang also said frankly: "As for the future, TV drama projects will continue to be done... There is a big production project, if there is an opportunity in the future, I hope to make it."

For now.

Jiangdong Film and Television Studio is still in its infancy, and there is no way to compare with some large film and television companies.

If Zhou Yutang wants to make movies, then the main force must be concentrated on this aspect, and there is no spare energy to make TV drama projects.

Of course, it is possible to participate in investment.

"Big production project? Can you tell me about it?"

Huang Xiaoming's eyes lit up, and he became interested decisively.

Zhou Yutang expressed his plan enthusiastically: "I am going to adapt the novel in the snow to a TV series. The original plot is too long, so it will be divided into several seasons like the American TV series, and the total investment of the first season is expected to be around More than 1.5 million."

Huang Xiaoming: "."

Gao Yuanyuan: "."

Both of them fell into a state of sluggishness, their eyes widened in astonishment.

Brother Yu Tang, you didn't drink much, why are you so drunk?

An investment of more than 1.5 million yuan in a TV series sounds like a fantasy to two people.

What concept?
The total investment of the movie banquet is only 1.2 million yuan. This TV series used 1.5 million yuan. Can the cost be recovered?

"It really is a big production. To be honest, I was a little shocked."

The corner of Xiao Ming's mouth twitched, but he regained his composure in a moment, and nodded with a smile, expressing affirmation to Zhou Yutang:

"However, as far as the current situation is concerned, there is definitely no way to do this project. When we really want to shoot in the future, just tell me, I can help you act without a salary."

"I'll play for you for free, too."

Da Meiyuan also expressed her willingness to support.

Apart from other things, if this 1.5 million TV series is actually filmed, it will really be the ceiling in domestic entertainment TV series.

If you dare to dream, then we will dare to draw cakes to support you, but it is impossible to realize it anyway.

"Okay, then I will remember."

Zhou Yutang also smiled, he himself knew that it was unrealistic at the moment.

How many more years can we wait?

He felt that with his own development speed, there might not be no hope.

The three of them drank red wine and listened to music, and the atmosphere was quite good.

The main thing is that Huang Xiaoming's high emotional intelligence will come to the event, and Zhou Yutang is also very good at socializing, which makes Da Meiyuan laugh and tremble.

Chat about the gossip in the circle, talk about the prospects of the industry, who is promoted, whose salary is downgraded, which newcomer the company has signed and is ready to support, and who will cut whose cake.

Instead, Zhou Yutang heard a lot of top stories.

What about the secrets of a certain boss in the Beijing circle, and the stories of some of the Sidan Shuangbing who fought openly and secretly.

Da Meiyuan's gossip is understandable, Xiao Ming is not someone who would say such things in front of ordinary friends, Zhou Yutang can feel that he really treats himself as a good brother.

Stimulate!

quite exciting.

In fact, the reason why the entertainment circle is torn apart is very simple. In the final analysis, it is all about profit.

Those who are in the middle or bottom may not feel it, because the resources they can access are limited, but to sit in the top star position, competition is indispensable.

After all, the most delicious cake in the entire entertainment industry is only this big, whether it is top film and television resources, fashion resources or business resources, they all have to compete.

Being able to obtain these top-level resources is the actual benefit that can really bring fame and real money.

It is said that blocking people's money is like killing their parents. At this stage, tens of millions or billions are really enough to make people tear their faces.

The most classic is the four denier double ice, and the shows are full of firepower, all kinds of violence.

Somehow, the relationship issue came up, and Gao Yuanyuan shook her red wine glass and asked:
"Xiao Ming, you are so successful in your career now, have you ever considered personal relationship issues?"

Zhou Yutang knew it when he heard it.

Brother Xiao Ming seems to have just broken up last year. It can't be seen that Da Meiyuan is still a good sister with a warm heart. She probably wants to introduce a girlfriend to Brother Xiao Ming.

Huang Xiaoming rubbed his nose and smiled smartly: "I think it's good to be single, have fun, and have no burden. Falling in love takes time and energy, and you will get hurt in the end."

"Then you're old enough to get married, right?" Da Meiyuan rolled her eyes.

"I don't think I'll ever get married in my life."

Huang Xiaoming believed himself.

"Okay, then you can play on your own, don't lead Yu Tang into trouble, he is still a simple student."

Seeing that she couldn't convince Huang Xiaoming, Gao Yuanyuan had no choice but to say.

She felt that compared to Huang Xiaoming, the younger brother Zhou Yutang she just met was like a blank sheet of paper.

"Sister Yuanyuan, you are really accurate."

Zhou Yutang smiled honestly: "I have always scored full marks in the ideological and moral exams since I was a child."

Don't look at Xiao Ming's thick eyebrows, big eyes, upright face, and his playfulness. From time to time, gossip media will take pictures of him going to nightclubs to have fun with young models and young ladies.

However, Brother Ming is still sober in the world, and he doesn't want to get married even if he is killed.

As for the future, who knows what will happen?
"Xiaotang is indeed very simple. She devotes herself to her career. That's what a man should do. With a career, what kind of woman won't be there in the future?"

Huang Xiaoming is so shrewd, he immediately shifted his firepower to Gao Yuanyuan: "Yuanyuan, don't talk about me, what about yourself, how are you doing with that great music talent?"

Come on, everyone hurt each other.

Gao Yuanyuan: "."

Da Meiyuan didn't speak, but just drank the red wine in the glass.

Needless to say, it's all in the wine.

After drinking the bitter wine, her heart ached, and Da Meiyuan's eyes were blurred and sad.

"Actually, my expectations for relationships are very simple. I just want to find someone I love who also loves me, and then get married. But why is it so difficult?"

Gao Yuanyuan sighed in distress, poured another glass of wine, and continued to drink it down.

"Come, come, let's not talk about these disappointing things, let's have a toast together."

Huang Xiaoming saw that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so he stopped exporting and immediately poured wine.

Zhou Yutang also drank a few cups with Da Meiyuan to soothe his emotions.

Then we talked about work. Huang Xiaoming has just finished filming "The Deer and Cauldron", and "New Shanghai Beach" will be broadcast soon, and he has several other film projects in his hands.

Gao Yuanyuan was a little envious: "Oh, now people in the circle say that I'm not good at acting, and no one is looking for me to film. The script sent to me is like a fool. I don't even bother to connect to it. It's such a boring life. .”

After being emotionally hurt, Da Meiyuan feels a bit melancholic and beautiful.

Huang Xiaoming nodded to Zhou Yutang: "Then please ask Xiaotang to help you tailor a script. My younger brother is very talented, and Zeng Li is the one who became popular in one of his plays."

"Brother Xiaoming, don't be kidding me. My studio has just started, and all I do are low-cost productions. How can I hire a big name like Sister Yuanyuan?"

Zhou Yutang smiled wryly and shook his head.

Really not exaggerating.

Da Meiyuan is now also a first-line female star in the four-dan double ice circle. Back then, she earned several million yuan for filming Yitian Tulongji. This was a few years ago, and now the quotation for a single episode is at least 15 yuan.

"As long as the script is good, I can lower the salary."

Gao Yuanyuan sighed quietly: "I haven't been able to get any interesting roles recently, so I can only act in a drama."

Although Da Meiyuan's acting skills are relatively casual, she still has a bit of artistic pursuit in her bones.

This can be seen from her acting career. She takes on commercial films that make money, but also literary films like "Green Red".

"It depends on fate, maybe one day I will meet a good script."

While talking, Huang Xiaoming's phone rang again. This was the fifth time he answered the phone tonight.

"Hey, Mr. Wang, what's the matter?"

Huang Xiaoming held the wine glass in one hand, and picked it up with the other, "The director from Xiangjiang? What project? Hmm, ok, where is it, I'll go there right away, that's all."

After hanging up the phone, Huang Xiaoming also put down the wine glass in his hand, and said apologetically, "Xiaotang, Yuanyuan, I'm sorry, a director from Xiangjiang is here to talk about cooperation, I want to go and accompany him."

"Xiaotang, please take care of Yuanyuan."

"You should, brother Xiaoming, be careful on the road."

Zhou Yutang nodded, not surprised.

Huang Xiaoming is now very close to the two presidents of Huayi, and the news that he is about to quit Huayi is no secret in the circle, and it is almost an official announcement.

After Huang Xiaoming left, there were only two people left in the box.

Gao Yuanyuan drank some wine, seemed a little enthusiastic, brushed her hair casually, and smiled while holding her chin: "Brother Yu Tang, tell me, do you have a notebook suitable for my sister?"

Alcohol welled up, and a touch of rouge flashed on the snowy cheeks, which made the pure bright eyes and white teeth a little more charming.

Seeing the anticipation in the bright eyes of the beautiful girl, Zhou Yutang shook his head slightly, and was about to speak, but there seemed to be a soft and gentle voice echoing in his mind:
"I just want to find someone I love who also loves me, and then get married, but why is it so difficult?"

Zhou Yutang looked at Gao Yuanyuan, and suddenly wanted to say something to her.
