China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 575: The God of Internal Entertainment, Completely Shocked

This year’s film festival has received a series of upsets.

But the biggest winner is naturally Zhou Zhou Yutang.

It was the first time to appear on an international stage like Cannes and reach the top, winning the Palme d'Or.

For domestic entertainment, tonight he is both the natural choice and the only one.

After the official dinner of the awards ceremony ended, the excitement continued.

Zhou Yutang also held a celebration banquet at the Pierrotier restaurant in Cannes.

Pei Kang, Zhang Yimou, Gong Li, Huang Xiaoming, Qin Lan and others were invited.

There is also the Yangma special correspondent who is currently in the honeymoon period, as well as several media outlets with close relationships.

The French seafood feast is paired with Taittinger champagne, and the party continues.

"Yu Tang, don't drink too much."

Zeng Li was happy for Zhou Yutang, but when she saw that he didn't refuse anyone who came, she felt a little distressed and quietly came over to give instructions.

Lao Mouzi, Huang Xiaoming and others are all fine.

I just came over with a glass of wine, which was nice.

That mountain sculpture was really firing on all cylinders, drinking cup after cup in tribute to Zhou Yutang.

He was truly trained by the system. Drinking red wine was like drinking boiled water, but he didn't even notice it, his face was just glowing.

Anyone can see that Mr. Han is really happy.

Pei Kang also felt like he was dreaming.

He never expected that in his first year in office, he was expected to make achievements and make progress during a smooth transition.

But I didn’t expect Zhou Yutang to lead Fei directly and win the second Palme d’Or.

This will undoubtedly bring Zhou Yutang's reputation to an unprecedented peak in the industry, and it is also Pei Kang's creation.

After all, the achievements were made during his term of office, and merit is indispensable.

In this case, what is the point of making progress while maintaining stability?

The plan has changed, become bigger and stronger, and create greater glory!

""Chi Ling" surprisingly won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival!"

"The Chinese film "Chi Ling" became the big winner at the Cannes Film Festival!"

""Chi Ling" won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, another monument for Chinese-language films!"

Reporters from various media dispatched to Cannes will naturally not miss such valuable news material.

The results of the awards ceremony have just been released, and the news has already been sent back to the country simultaneously.

The night was full of fun, with Zhou Yutang sleeping with Zeng Li in his arms. The staff in China worked overtime, and the news soon began to spread wildly on the Internet, instantly becoming the focus of national attention.

“When was the last time a Chinese-language film won the Palme d’Or?”

"In 1993, when I was just born, Brother Chen Kai became a god overnight in Cannes."

"At the 46th Cannes Film Festival, Jeanne Moreau announced that the Palme d'Or was awarded to both "The Piano Lesson" and "Farewell My Concubine", which were also double yolk eggs. What's interesting is that it was Jane who accepted the award with Chen Kaige that year. Camping, she is also on the jury this year.”

"When will "Chi Ling" be released in China?"

"Zhou Yutang is awesome. It's not difficult to win Venice, Berlin, and the Oscar Grand Slam by the way, right?"

"+1"

"+10086"

The news in Cannes is like a hurricane passing through. At this time, domestic Weibo and some forums are completely boiling.

In addition to being shocked, it is still shocking.

Looking back at Zhou Yutang's outstanding achievements, he can no longer be called a monster.

"Zhou Cao, the boss is simply a god!"

The private chat groups of Lu Yang, Wen Muye, Guo Fan and others have also exploded.

Lu Yang forwarded a news link that reviewed Zhou Yutang's brilliant achievements, followed by a series of admiring expressions.

"Wen can make literary films to win awards. He won the Silver Bear for Best Director in Berlin and the Palme d'Or at Cannes."

"Wuneng's commercial film "Indiscriminate Killing", the total box office of the films directed and starred by the boss, the first member of the 50 billion club in China, in one word, awesome."

Everyone was in shock, their expressions frantically painted on the screen, but their hearts were full of pride.

Zhou Yutang is the backbone of Jiangdong Entertainment.

With him here, they are full of expectations for the future.

"Sissi, wake up, don't sleep."

Aunt Liu opened the curtains, letting the warm sunshine shine into the room, and then shook her daughter's snow-white arm exposed outside the quilt.

Liu Yifei murmured an unknown meaning, turned over, and buried her head in the quilt.

On the contrary, the plump buttocks line is clearly exposed, and even with the pajamas lifted up, a touch of snow-white skin on the waist is heart-pounding.

She had just returned to the capital from a brand event and was really tired.

It's a rare day to rest, so I must get some extra sleep, and sleep until I feel angry again.

Aunt Liu sat on the edge of the bed and patted her gently: "Did you forget something?"

"Mom, please let me sleep a little longer."

"Zhou Yutang won the award."

"what?"

Liu Yifei suddenly jumped up from the bed, looking a little confused and shocked, which made Aunt Liu feel a little funny.

When it comes to Zhou Yutang, it's like a switch has been flipped.

It took her two seconds to react, and she asked blankly: "Mom, what did you say?"

"I said, Xiao Zhou won the Palme d'Or."

"Are you kidding?" Liu Yifei was dumbfounded.

"There was news at midnight last night. I thought you were watching. Why didn't he tell you?"

While talking to her daughter, Aunt Liu habitually packed up the clothes in Liu Yifei's room, and kept repeating: "I told you many times that the clothes should be arranged neatly."

"Ouch, I fell asleep."

Liu Yifei took her mobile phone and looked through it. Sure enough, there was a selfie of Zhou Yutang holding the Palme d'Or trophy and certificate after the award ceremony and before being interviewed.

It’s all because last night’s award ceremony was too boring and I couldn’t fast forward during it, so I fell asleep watching it.
I was excited to call Zhou Yutang, but thinking about the time difference between the two sides, he was probably still sleeping, so I put the phone down again.

I thought about it.

After all, she happily took her phone and sent a WeChat message.

"Ding!"

The WeChat message alert sounded, and then the phone screen lit up, and Liu Shishi responded quickly.

Seeing the gentle smile on her face, Wang Jianhui next to him unscrewed the lid of the thermos cup and asked with a smile: "Shi Shi, when will Director Zhou return to China?"

After Wang Jianhui collaborated with Zhou Yutang in "Big Shot", he was invited to become a special acting professor at Yamashita Academy.

But before that, he had long been Cao Baoping's confidant.

The bully village chief Xiong Laosan in "Glorious Fury", the desperate drug trafficker Qiu Huogui in "Li Mi's Conjecture", and even the murderer in the yet-to-be-released "Scorching Sun" all contributed extremely wonderful performances. .

Now in "The Tuner", Wang Jianhui also plays a very important role in it, that is, the police chief.

"Just these two days, the movie "Qing Yu Nian 2" is still waiting for him."

"Director Zhou is so awesome, he even won the Palme d'Or."

Another leading actor, Tan Zhuo, also laughed and said: "Now he is the signature of the Chinese film industry."

Tan Zhuo's acting skills are also well-known in the industry. In this drama, she plays the mistress of the police chief.

"Congratulations, Shi Shi."

The crew was like stars surrounding Liu Shishi. Before work started, all they could talk about was this topic.

There were rumors before that Zhou Yutang scripted this drama specifically for the first sister.

After the film was turned on, he even sent his own gold medal producer Chen Xi to come over several times.

Just looking at Chen Xi's approach to Liu Shishi, the people in the crew understood everything.

Liu Shishi holds a very high position in Zhou Yutang's heart.

Maybe she is the future boss lady of Kodong.

With such an additional identity, everyone on the crew took great care of Liu Shishi.

Even director Cao Baoping, who has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, would suppress his temper and talk to Liu Shishi in a good voice when he was not satisfied with something.

Someone suddenly asked: "When will "Chi Ling" be released in China, Shi Shi, do you know?"

Listening to the crew's compliments on Zhou Yutang, Liu Shishi was even happier than hearing the compliments about himself, with a smile on his gentle face:
"I'm not sure. It seems to be scheduled for the summer."

"When the iron is hot, let's set it for June."

Faced with Pei Kang's question, Zhou Yutang took over China Film's film schedule, looked at it for a long time, and gave his answer: "The July schedule will be given to "Wolf Warrior."

""Super Body" is also in June, so the time must be staggered." La Pei Kang nodded.

"Thank you La Dong."

Since the two parties reached an agreement, the quota of imported films has become very precious every year, and even Hollywood giants want to take a bite of the fat.

But the final decision-making power still lies with the head of China Film Group. Since Pei Kang nodded, "Super Body" will be introduced into the country and there will be no problem with the schedule. "It's all our own, it's a small matter."

La Pei Kang nodded and didn't take it to heart. Instead, he asked with interest: "Yu Tang, it's been quite busy these two days. How is the copyright negotiation going?"

As Cannes comes to an end, the copyright trading market has gradually entered its final stage. Zhou Yutang, who was waiting for a good price, finally waited for a bumper harvest.

As the winner of the Palme d'Or, the overseas copyright of "Chi Ling" has been robbed.

"That's almost it. That's the number."

Hearing Zhou Yutang's understatement of the numbers, La Peikang, who was very good at nourishing qi, had his pupils trembled. He was stunned for a long time before asking for the details.

The few film producers who originally wanted to pick up the missing pieces were beating their chests and feeling extremely upset.

If I had known that I could win "Chi Ling" and win the Palme d'Or, no matter how much money I spent, it would still be worth it.

After winning the Palme d'Or, the copyright price soared like a rocket.

Including film distribution, audio and video and other copyrights in 12 countries including America, Canada, France, the United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, Greece, the Netherlands, and Belgium, the final transaction price was as high as 8380 million US dollars!
It has set a new record for Chinese film copyright transactions.

According to the current U.S. dollar exchange rate of 6.13, overseas copyrights have been sold for more than 5 million.

This means that the film has completely recovered its production costs before it was released, and even made Zhou Yutang earn at least 3 small goals.

The advantage lies with the foreigners. Zhou Yutang wants to buy the team and add another amount of start-up capital.

Pei Kang finally calmed down and said, "You made a lot of money."

"I just make a little money."

Zhou Yutang of Shunfeng Bureau played a humble and steady role: "La Dong is now the one carrying the entire Chinese film industry forward. I still have a lot to learn from La Dong in the future."

Good guy, this is still small money! ?

Pei Kang shook his head and laughed, but thinking about Zhou Yutang's own net worth, it seemed that this was really the case.
Hearing Zhou Yutang's words, he felt indescribably comfortable.

Understand and experience Han Sanping's happiness.

If such a capable and sensible young man doesn't come to power, then who will?

Since Poet Chen became a god in Cannes, his time has passed by in a blink of an eye for twenty-one years.

After so many years, only "Alive" directed by Zhang Yimou and "The Devil Is Coming" directed by Jiang Wen have won the Jury Prize at Cannes, second only to the Palme d'Or.

This time Zhou Yutang won the Palme d'Or, which caused a huge earthquake in the entire domestic entertainment industry.

The film school worked overnight to make a banner and hung it in front of the school, and sent a text message to congratulate him.

As the face of the film school, it can be said that it has earned enough face for the alma mater.

Zhou Yutang posted a photo of himself holding a cup backstage on Weibo. In just 12 hours, it had nearly 380 million retweets and comments.

Liu Yifei, Liu Shishi, Gao Yuanyuan, Fan Binbin, Hu Ge, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Xu Jinglei, Xu Guangtou, Deng Chao and his wife and other first-line celebrities in the industry who are close to him have commented and forwarded them on Weibo. .

"Only he can do it. That's really awesome. I'm convinced."

Feng Xiaogang, who came from Xu Dugu to seek defeat, expressed his conviction in an interview with the media.

This is the hottest topic in domestic entertainment nowadays. It is inevitable that an entertainment reporter would go to interview Brother Chen Kai about his views on this.

"You asked me what I think?"

Brother Chen Kai's expression was calm and full of nostalgia.

He wanted to say, this subclass is me.

But then I thought about it.

It seems that my performance is not as good as Zhou Yutang's. If I say this, it is somewhat inappropriate. I will avoid being ridiculed by the media and humiliating myself.

That’s all.

Poet Chen changed his mind and said: "First of all, congratulations to him. I have talked with Yu Tang a lot before. He is a very thoughtful and capable young man. His achievements are not unexpected."

"This is also a major achievement for Chinese-language films. I am looking forward to where he can go in the future."

After dealing with the entertainment story, Poet Chen tossed and turned that night and found it difficult to fall asleep.

When he walked to the window and stood with his hands behind his hands, he saw the bright moon, and Poet Chen sighed quietly.

If the spring breeze feels pity for the flowers, can it allow me to stay young again?
The contract for the film copyright has been signed. Zhou Yutang took the opportunity to interview the Sixth Princess with several media outlets, leaving Li Shuang to deal with the aftermath and boarded the plane back home first.

These days, he is a media darling.

The most satisfying thing in life is this.

Zhou Yutang finally understood why Brother Chen Kai floated.

When you are promoted to a very high position, there are only voices of praise and reputation around you, and nothing else.

In this case, even if you can control it initially, it will gradually expand.

but.

After Zhou Yutang was suddenly ecstatic, he gradually calmed down.

Before he won the Palme d'Or, there were many people who praised him.

It would have floated into the sky long ago.

Mainly because he has clear plans and goals for his future.

And he also has his own way of relieving stress and downplaying emotions.

That is to indulge in gentleness and divert attention.

Or take a private plane back to China, Zeng Li was unwilling to give in even to death, because outside the compartment, there were Ni Ni and the stewardess.

But in the end, he still couldn't defeat Zhou Yutang.

Traveling thousands of miles a day is naturally indescribable thrills and excitement, and a unique and wonderful experience.

Done.

Zeng Li was a little embarrassed to see people, so she slept in her clothes.

Zhou Yutang just pretended that nothing happened, went out and flipped through the film and television information, and saw some interesting news.

A few days ago, Li Zizi was playing with a water gun with a young model at the beach. Something big happened. The young model he hooked up with recently, Katie Cleary, was a married woman.

Unfortunately, her husband could not survive the cuckold attack and committed suicide with a gun at the shooting range on Sunday.

Turning on his phone, Zhou Yutang received messages from all directions, and simply replied to them. The first was Zhang Manyu's congratulatory message.
"Sister Manyu, I heard that you went to the Strawberry Music Festival?"

"Thank you, Director Zhou, for paying so much attention to me in Cannes."

"You're welcome. Cannes also has Internet access."

Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows and smiled, with a hint of ridicule: "You sang very well, but the audience was ignorant."

Zhang Manyu, who also won the Cannes Film Festival and is a top domestic actress, recently moved to the music industry after quitting the film industry.

But the result was not ideal.

She just sang two songs on stage at the music festival, and even God didn't want to hear her sing again. Suddenly, strong winds blew up and the shed at the venue collapsed.

This girl was quite stubborn and insisted on continuing to sing on the stage. However, because it was really dangerous, the staff rushed over and stopped her, and the performance was forced to stop.
Many fans joked that this was the sound of being abandoned by God, and advised her to return to her lost ways and come back to make movies.

"Hey, I heard you laughing through the phone."

Zhang Manyu's phone call came in quickly, and she said a little depressed: "There are quite a lot of out-of-tune sounds. I'm still searching on the Internet to find out how to sing without going out of tune. Ah Tang, you often go to concerts as a guest, and you perform very well. How did you do it?"

"That's it, don't think too much, just go up and sing directly, treat it like a KTV."

"."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for several seconds before Zhang Manyu sighed: "A talented guy will make life easy."

"Sister, believe in yourself, you can do it too."

Seeing that this sister was getting heartbroken, Zhou Yutang quickly poured her a bowl of chicken soup: "It was the same in acting back then. As long as you work hard, there will be rewards. If it doesn't work, let's come back to acting. It's more fun than singing."

"You have a notebook for me?"

"If there is a chance, we can cooperate."

Zhou Yutang agreed readily.

Thinking of cooperating with Zhou Yutang, Zhang Manyu's heart actually moved a little, and she laughed and said: "I was the one who called to congratulate you, but I didn't expect that you would be the one to comfort me instead. Thank you."

"Let's talk about acting later. I want to try singing again."

In fact, Zhang Manyu did not amaze everyone as soon as she debuted.

She acted in more than 20 dramas and was often described as a vase. Later, through her accumulation of experience, she was able to play so many classic roles and became the ceiling of Chinese-speaking actresses.

After briefly replying to the messages from several beauties, Zhou Yutang listened to Ni Ni’s work report,

"Boss, I invite you to attend the Magnolia Awards next month."

"Push it."

This year's Magnolia, "In the Name of the People" and "Reply 1988" directed by Jiang Dong received many nominations, among which Liu Shishi was mentioned as the queen of Magnolia.

"There will also be a commendation meeting of the Directors Guild in June."

Ni Ni flipped through her work diary and continued: "You are the starring role in Director Zhang's movie. Lin Liang is scouting locations in Bay Province. It is expected that all preparatory work, including casting, will be completed in June."

"According to Director Zhang's wishes, filming will start in July."

Lao Mouzi is known as a model worker in the entertainment industry and is incredibly energetic.

After returning to China in Cannes, "The Return" is still in theaters. After the film promotion trip is over, he will immediately start the project "Zhou Chu Abates Three Evils".

"The sequel to "Now You See Me" is expected to start shooting in August, and it will be seamlessly integrated into the production by then."

Zhou Yutang felt a little dizzy just listening to it.

Due to my schedule in Cannes, I took two weeks off from the crew of "Celebrating Years 2". When I returned, I had to work overtime in order to finish filming at the end of June.
