China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 692 Who doesn't know Zhang Ruonan?

"Eighty points?"

"What's up?"

Zhang Ruojun was slightly stunned, then reacted and complained unhappily: "Fuck you, it's a movie premiere."

Zhou Yutang smiled and said, "I'll be there when the time comes."

Wang Guangguang has made many achievements, except for Deng Chao's "Bad Angels", which is scheduled for the Lunar New Year holiday.

In addition, two low-budget films are scheduled for November.

One of them is "Master", in which Jiang Dong participated in the investment. After its release, it showed a trend of taking off as a niche dark horse.

In today's friendly match, the Grand Commander's exclusive midfielder Lee Modric should have had a seat, but he was on a roadshow in Shanghai.

The other one is "Spending the Long Years with Anthony", which is scheduled to be released on the 14th.

This love-themed movie is adapted from the best-selling novel of the same name. It is directed by Qin Xiaozhen and features a luxurious cast including Zhang Ruojun, Bai Baihe, Tang Yixin, Jin Shijia and Jiang Yiyan.

Before Zhang Ruojun spoke, Zhou Yutang's old friend Mr. Zhou had already greeted him.

This is also Zhou Xun’s first attempt to cross over to become a film producer, and her personal studio also has a share.

"Brother Tang, when will your drama start filming?"

"Soon, maybe another week."

The sun is shining today, and there is a cool breeze. Looking at the beauties who are full of youthfulness, Zhou Yutang narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling an indescribable sense of comfort.

"How's your recent trip, little deer?"

"I'm busy rehearsing the program for the Spring Festival Gala, and I also have several business events."

Lu Han said, "Director Chen has informed us that The Great Wall may need additional filming."

"Do you need to reshoot?"

Zhang Ruojun choked up: "How long did this take?"

"There's no problem with Xiaolu's scenes. They will be finished by next month at the latest."

Zhou Yutang had just returned from the crew of "The Great Wall". In addition to paying attention to the overall project, he had also seen the performances of Princess Tian and Lu Han, and had an idea of ​​what was going on.

At the beginning, Chen Hong sent Lu Han a film contract for the sake of traffic, and Zhou Yutang nodded.

The money offered was quite a bit, so there was no reason not to accept it. One of the three little ones was also taken by Chen Hong.

Xiaolu doesn't have many scenes, and almost all of them are opposite Matt Damon.

It can be said that the study at the foot of the mountain was not in vain, and his acting skills are really good.

Sweet Princess is pretty much the same.

The success or failure of this movie has little to do with them.

Zhou Yutang patted Lu Han on the shoulder and chuckled, "You and Baoqi are the main force in promoting Detective Chinatown. Be prepared. You are expected to start appearing on variety shows at the end of the month."

November, which covers the National Day and Lunar New Year holiday periods, is not a popular period.

But it is the soil for the survival of some low-budget movies.

After all, there are only a few big commercial films in the circle, and they are all aimed at the summer vacation, National Day, New Year's Day and Spring Festival periods.

Director Jia's film "Mountains May Depart" has been completed, and the final box office revenue was set at 3140 million.

After entering the working day, the single-day box office of "Master" dropped to more than 18 million.

After all, it is a niche movie with a limited audience.

Zhou Yutang took time out to attend the premiere of Zhang Ruojun's new film.

The connections of Wang Changtian, the top star Zhou Gongzi, and Zhang Ruojun almost alarmed half of the stars in the entertainment industry.

Except Zhou Yutang.

Zhu Yilong, Lu Han, Wen Muye, Lu Yang and Guo Fan all showed up to show their support. They all have a good relationship with Zhang Ruojun.

Stars such as Yang Lan, Tang Wei, Chen Kun, Yu Quan, Guo Xiaosi, Chen Chichi, Sha Yi, Yan Ni and others also came to show their support.

Even Eason Chan and Fan Xiaoxuan were present to sing the theme song.

This is not the first time Zhang Ruojun has worked with Tang Yixin.

Whenever Yang Mi has the chance, she will always bring Chen Yao into the group, and Xigou will try every means to support Tang Yixin.

Starting from the drama "Shang Jiangdong", Tang Yixin was brought to the second-tier position in the circle by him.

The movie started and it was pretty standard. It didn't have those clichéd youth film elements like rebellion, alcoholism, car accidents, abortion, etc., nor did it have any big surprises.

The ordinary life of young Anthony while studying abroad is too literary, or even pretentious.

Young Master Zhou is also one of the protagonists today. She is wearing a white women's suit and looks like a strong woman. She is busy receiving guests.

Zhou Yutang stood up and prepared to leave early, but he did not forget to chuckle and send his blessing: "Producer Zhou, I wish you a big box office success."

"Are you leaving now? There's a cocktail party later."

"I'll go ahead. I have something to discuss with Mr. Wang."

Zhou Yutang nodded politely to Gao Shengyuan who was accompanying Mr. Zhou, then turned around and went for a walk around the Colorful House with Wang Changtian.

This year, Jiangdong's "The Return of the Great Sage" sounded the clarion call for the rise of Chinese animated films, and also made film and television companies in the industry realize the potential market and amazing profits of animated films.

Mr. Wang from Guangxian is very methodical in his planning and work.

even.

Long before Zhou Yutang, he had already set his sights on the blue ocean of animated films.

Wang Changtian wants to be the Pixar of China.

"The first day box office of "Spending the Long Years with Anthony" was 1880 million!"

For a low-budget movie, the first-day box office data basically met the expectations of the two major producers, which is a good result.

Everyone can make money from this project, at least it is more stable than "My Puberty" which was released at the same time.

The latter is a romantic comedy produced by Wanda, starring Bao Bei'er and Sun Yi. It grossed 529 million on the first day and went down in the sea.

As for how much you will earn in the future, it depends on fate.

——Because November’s biggest BOSS “007: Spectre” will also be released in the same period.

The legendary agent has been making great success in the European and American markets, with global box office revenue exceeding 300 million US dollars.

The main creative team from Hollywood flew to China and held a grand premiere.

The box office on the first day was 9098 million, and it was unstoppable in the first three days, with the box office exceeding 3 million, setting a record for the first-week box office of the series in mainland China!

"The Martian" is still being postponed, but it still makes around a million per day, which is better than nothing.

"The Master" and "Anthony" combined could not stop it from dominating the Chinese film market in November.

Now the Chinese film market has officially become the world's second largest box office.

Moreover, at this rate of development, there is hope that it will catch up with North America in the next few years.

In order to get a piece of this sweet and delicious cake, Hollywood film and television companies have also learned to please Chinese audiences.

Following the premiere of "Spectre" in China, another Hollywood blockbuster produced by Lionsgate Entertainment has set its sights on the Chinese box office.

Francis Lawrence, the director of "The Hunger 3", came to China in person with his cousin, Liam Hemsworth and other main creators.

"Wow, I really like director Zhou Yutang's works. I had the opportunity to work with him, but unfortunately it didn't work out due to schedule conflicts."

With Weinstein's support, the cousin showed her acting skills that surpassed those of an Oscar-winning actress: "I really hope that I can have the opportunity to work with a great director like him in the future. China is also an incredibly beautiful country..."

Maybe it was the advice given to her by the public relations team.

When they arrived in China, my cousin first expressed her friendship to Zhou Yutang from a distance, then went to climb the Great Wall and ate dumplings at the foot of the Great Wall.

Beijing roast duck is her favorite, and Kung Pao chicken is so delicious.

At the premiere, this whole set of combined punches really made people feel more approachable.

Many viewers who were unaware of the truth felt that the actress had been recognized by the Oscar winner, and their favorable impression of her increased.

In fact, my cousin is always good at judging people by their appearance.

Even though she licks Zhou Yutang like crazy, it doesn't stop her from acting condescending in Hollywood and looking down on China in every way.

But he says things that are contrary to his mind.

Zhou Yutang rejected the invitation letter from Lionsgate Entertainment for the premiere in China and asked the public relations department to make a clarification without giving any face.

Even the fat guy Harvey has to please him and seek project cooperation.

A mere cousin is not even worthy of his attention.

This year's Jiangdong Entertainment can be said to have stolen the limelight.

The Ministry of Culture has recently announced the list of annual animation support plans for promoting socialist core values, and "The Monkey King: Hero is Back" is on the list.

Today, this is the benchmark of China's animation industry.

Many viewers are paying close attention to Jiangdong’s upcoming collaboration with Color House Animation, a subsidiary of Guangxian.

Soon, Guangxian's Wang Changtian and Jiangdong CEO Li Shuang jointly attended the cooperation press conference held in mid-month.

The two jointly announced the two companies' expected 15 new film plans.
“Guangzhou Color Strip House will reach a strategic cooperation with October Culture, a subsidiary of Jiangdong, to integrate resources and jointly develop the animation universe.”

This list of films includes Tian Xiaopeng's "Deep Sea" and Cai Tiao Wu's "Big Fish and Begonia".

The focus is naturally on the Chinese comic mythology universe series proposed by Zhou Yutang.

The two entertainment industry leaders joined forces, shaking the film and television industry.

After the press conference, major media reported on this list of films.

Recently Zhou Yutang has been standing in the news headlines.

From causing a sensation by filming in Hong Kong, to fighting against Jack Ma with the Dong brothers on Double Eleven, now there is another big move.

Many viewers are very interested in the Chinese comic mythology universe led by Zhou Yutang.

"Fuck, Grand Commander, are you serious?"

"During the last roadshow, I remember Director Tian mentioned that there was a surprise. It turns out that Zhou Yutang is going to launch the Mythology Animation Universe."

"Do it quickly, do it quickly, buddy can afford the movie tickets."

"Nezha? Yang Jian? Jiang Ziya? The Chinese audiences are in for a treat."

Today, Zhou Yutang's appeal can be said to be at its peak.

What's more, there is the successful experience of "The Return of the Great Sage", and fans are looking forward to it very much.

But you have to eat one bite at a time. It is impossible to become fat in one breath.

It takes at least two to three years to produce an animated film of excellent quality.

October Culture is still continuing to recruit, and Caitiaowu is also frantically absorbing industry talents.

To some extent, it has promoted the progress of China's animation industry.

……

There is only a little over a month left until the Lunar New Year holiday, and several blockbuster films that are set to stir up the storm have also begun their pre-promotional campaigns.

Zhou Yutang unexpectedly saw the figure of an acquaintance.

The battle for the Lunar New Year box office has not yet begun, but the TV drama market has started first.

The TV series "The Disguiser", co-produced by Noon Sunshine and Jiangdong Entertainment, perfectly followed the popularity of "Nirvana in Fire".

After it was broadcast on Mango TV's Golden Eagle Exclusive Theater, the ratings continued to rise, with an average viewership rate of 1.63%, and the audience share ranked first during the same period.

Hu Ge, who has just joined the crew of "Hunting Ground" not long ago, has become really popular now after his two works became a big hit.

However, "The Pretender" will not be lonely for too long.

Soon, "The Legend of Yuer" starring Da Tiantian and "The Legend of Qin", a top IP TV series of Tangren TV, which was acquired by Zhejiang Blueberry TV, will join the group.

This is just the appetizer for this year's Lunar New Year drama.

The most anticipated is the Jiangdong-produced fantasy drama "The Journey of Flower", which is already ready to go, and "The Legend of Miyue" directed by Zheng Xiaolong, which is also eyeing the spotlight.

Many heroes competed for supremacy and war broke out everywhere.

The entire TV drama market is in chaos.

Director Kong Sheng came to the company.

"Ode to Joy" was completed in November and its post-production was placed under Vision Media.

After the huge success of "Joy of Life" and "Nirvana in Fire", another drama "The Disguiser" has set off a viewing frenzy, and Noon Sunshine has established itself as a high-quality production machine.

In terms of performance, Director Kong Sheng can definitely be regarded as one of the most prestigious top directors in the current drama circle.

Zhou Yutang's impression of him has always been that he is a top film and television professional who is diligent, serious and steady.

But I didn't expect that Director Kong with thick eyebrows and big eyes would one day use the back door.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou."

"Ah hello."

At noon, Zhou Yutang had a special meal in the company cafeteria. Looking at the quiet girl sitting next to Kong Sheng, he was a little surprised.

Director Kong, who is not good-looking and looks haggard, actually has a beautiful daughter.

Kong Gezi is a few years older than Zhou Yutang. She is not a top beauty, but she has regular facial features, tall stature and long legs, which is quite outstanding.

Because of her relationship with Kong Sheng, she followed her father and worked behind the scenes after graduation.

All the way from "Life and Death Line" and "Iron Age", to "A Family in Wenzhou", "Parents' Love", "Battle of Changsha", "All Quiet in Peking", and then to "Joy of Life", "The Pretender" and "Nirvana in Fire".

He is now a well-known stunt director in the circle and has a special effects studio under him.

She is the one who does most of the special effects work for Noon Sunshine.

"A good father will have a good daughter. The special effects in those movies by Sister Pigeon are all very beautiful."

Zhou Yutang smiled softly and said, "This is also a rare opportunity. I will say hello to Chen Xi when the time comes. Vision Media has a lot of work to do, and it will be reassuring to have someone from our own to help with the work."

Mr. Kong wanted to send his daughter to study in the "Megalodon" project.

This project is a collaboration between Vision Media and the world's top special effects team and is of high value.

It is still in preparation, but the special effects team has already started working on deep and precise sampling capture and modeling.

"Mr. Zhou."

How could Kong Sheng not know the ins and outs of this? He smiled and raised his glass, saying, "Thank you for your trouble. I'll drink first to show my respect."

As he spoke, he raised his head and drank the more than one or two ounces of liquor in the glass in one gulp.

The way Shandong men express their gratitude is so simple and unpretentious.

Kong Gezi has been around in the television circle, and is obviously not qualified for a top Sino-US co-production project like "The Meg".

But with Zhou Yutang's nod, she could directly join the group.

The special effects work of "The Meg" is a huge project. When the time comes, some orders will be outsourced and handed over to Kong Gezi to do it, which can be regarded as an experience and gold-plating for him.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

Kong Gezi has the cheerfulness that is unique to Shandong girls, especially when she smiles, she looks extremely bright and pleasing to the eye.

"You're welcome. Sister Pigeon is a talented person."

Zhou Yutang said calmly: "It's good to accumulate more experience so that you can take on the responsibility yourself in the future."

That's how he does things.

If you can take care of your own people, you will definitely do your best to take care of them.

Don't let the rich water flow to outsiders' fields.

Zhang Ruolan's lifestyle during this period was very simple.

I spent most of my time receiving acting training at Yamashita Academy, and then came to Jiangdong Building to participate in script readings.

It was my first time to participate in a script reading, and I felt quite novel and nervous.

Especially when meeting big names like Zhu Yilong and Zhou Yutang, I was excited but also worried that I would appear timid.

But both Lin Yufen and Yu Feihong are easy to talk to.

The third male lead is Wang Jiaer, a member of the boy band who has become popular recently.

A sunny, cheerful and handsome guy.

In the drama, he plays the role of a wealthy son of a family that has served the gods for generations.

Zhang Ruolan has seen his variety shows and knows how to create show effects. Teacher Liu Tianchi is also responsible for guiding him. After all, the boy band members are good at singing and dancing, but their acting skills are slightly lacking.

The second female lead in the play, Gao Ye, was even more enthusiastic. She took the initiative to add Zhang Ruolan on WeChat and pulled her into the Jiangdong ladies group.

The company’s large group only talks about work, which is not very convenient for casual chatting. It is also basic operation for girls to create a small group.

Zhao Liying, Li Xin, Di Lieba, Nazha and others are all in this group. They have taken the initiative to add her WeChat and offered encouragement.

In less than a month.

Zhang Ruolan’s connections in the entertainment industry are no longer limited to Zhang Yuxi.

Even Zhang Yuxi doesn’t have the WeChat accounts of these top stars, and she feels quite envious when she talks about them.

Zhou Shufang has always told her that this circle is very realistic, and Zhang Ruolan now has a new understanding.

Zhang Yuxi, like her, also started out as an internet celebrity, and because of Wanda Xiao Wang, she can even be considered a third-tier star in the circle.

But when she usually attends events, she is so far away from the top stars that they can barely say a few words to each other.

However, because Zhang Ruolan is a new Pisces Girl, she can chat directly with these big stars in a group.

Even her new friends Zhuang Dafei and Li Gengxi at Shanxia School envied her network of contacts.

"Mr. Zhou."

"Hello, Mr. Zhou."

"Yu Tang, you're here."

With random thoughts in his mind, Gao Ye pulled Zhang Ruolan's arm.

She looked up suddenly and saw Zhou Yutang striding into the meeting room.

Ni Ni, who was wearing a professional suit next to him, was so beautiful that she stood out.

Yu Feihong was not there today, so all the main creative members of "The Lonely and Great God", including director Lin Yufen, stood up.

Everyone was very respectful. Zhang Ruolan supported herself on the table with both hands and stood up as well.

"Sit down, sit down, and relax."

Zhou Yutang sat directly on the specially reserved main seat, with a smile on his face:
"Today is the last meeting before the start of filming."

"Director Jiang, Director Lin is here to tell everyone about the filming arrangements and things to pay attention to."

Zhou Yutang was a little surprised when he received the message from Zhou Ye.

Zhou Ye plays the role of the protagonist Kim Shin's sister in the previous life, Princess Kim Sun, in "The Lonely and Great God".

She is in her third year of high school this year and did not participate in the early script readings.

Zhou Ye even sent a message to explain the reason, but Zhou Yutang didn't really take it to heart.

That character doesn't have many scenes, and Zhou Ye's makeup photo is very good, so he just needs some minor adjustments when the time comes.

"How's your preparation for the art exam going?"

"I will work hard to get into film school!"

There were also several cute emojis that were full of girlishness, which made Zhou Yutang feel a little funny, so he replied casually:

"Good luck."

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye the 16th level art exam is about to begin.

During this period, art schools are very busy.

Some parents have begun to come to see the school environment in advance, and various media are also ready to discover potential talents in each school.

The launch conference of "The Lonely and Great God" was very low-key.

Of course, this low-key is only relative.

About twenty media outlets that have good relations with Jiangdong Entertainment arrived at the scene.

On the same day, news that Zhou Yutang's new drama was about to start filming also spread.

The cast of "The Lonely and Great God", which netizens have been looking forward to for a long time, has finally been unveiled.

Apart from the most eye-catching brothers Zhou Yutang and Zhu Yilong acting on the same stage, the gradually emerging Wang Jiaer is also quite popular.

Then there is Zhang Ruolan, the new Pisces girl who suddenly appeared.
"Wow, is this another newcomer? Haven't you heard of him?"

"Tianxian and Yijie fainted in the toilet crying."

"I found out that this girl was originally a college student and worked part-time as a model. She has taken photos for the Yu Sheng brand."

"Wow, what kind of luck is this? I heard that she was chosen from thousands of auditions."

"Husband, praise me. I will act like a spoiled child, warm the bed, and not get jealous."

"The slutty chicken upstairs, please stop smelling it."

"The senior from Hangzhou Dianzi University sent a congratulatory message, congratulations to my junior sister."

"..."

Since there has been no related marketing before, the cast has remained a mystery.

Netizens have been discussing and speculating a lot.

But when he really learned that Zhou Yutang was going to recruit a new person, he naturally became very curious about the new fish girl Zhang Ruolan.

"Did you save the galaxy in your previous life?"

Many female stars looked at Zhang Ruolan, who was wearing a fresh plain dress and standing next to Zhou Yutang at the press conference.

I feel indescribable envy and jealousy in my heart.

They knew very well what it meant to be in this position beside him.

The famous Grand Commander in Heaven is a powerful figure in the entertainment industry and has always been the focus of social media topics.

There is a sarcastic statement that has received a lot of likes on a certain forum and has won the hearts of many passers-by.

The three major aesthetic benchmarks in Asia: neon fashion shows, South Korean chaebols, and Zhou Yutang's aesthetics.

Although he claims to be face-blind, no one takes it seriously. Just look at the previous Pisces girls.

Zeng Li, Liu Yifei, Liu Shishi, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Gao Yuanyuan, Li Xin, Meng Ziyi, Zhang Tianai
There are all kinds of plump and thin girls, and famous flowers of all colors.

All of them are beautiful women.

A few days ago, Governor Zhou logged into Weibo and followed Zhang Ruolan, which was quickly exposed by netizens.

"Zhou Yutang pays attention to Zhang Ruolan" has also become the most concerned topic among netizens at present.

Who is Zhang Ruolan?
Why is she being noticed by Zhou Yutang?
Many people flocked to Zhang Ruolan’s Weibo to find out the truth.

The result did not disappoint the audience. Zhang Ruolan's fresh and lovely makeup photos immediately sparked heated discussions online.

“Isn’t this speed of gaining followers too fast?”

Several hot searches appeared one after another, and Zhang Yuxi was talking on the phone with Zhang Ruolan.

“I was scared, too.”

Zhang Ruolan looked at the tens of thousands of new Weibo followers, which were still increasing wildly.

Various private messages were sent, and even fan groups were spontaneously established.

Feeling quite flattered and grateful, I communicated with the experienced assistant Zhou Shufang assigned to me and handed over the management of the fan group to her.

"Nannan, when will the filming start?"

"Let's do it tomorrow. I'm so tired after taking photos all day today." Zhang Ruolan rolled over on the bed.

"Come on, maybe I'll need you to protect me in the future."

After chatting for a while, Zhang Yuxi hung up the phone and silently checked Zhang Ruolan’s Weibo. The number of fans had increased by more than 10,000.

She couldn't sleep, and Zhang Ruolan also tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Before that, she was just an amateur female college student, not a professional model, and had only a few thousand fans on Weibo.

After the official announcement, he was claimed by Jiangdong Entertainment, had a certification added after his Weibo name, and was followed by Zhou Yutang, instantly gaining a lot of attention.

This is the value of the fish girl chosen by Zhou Yutang.

This overwhelming traffic is enough to change a person's destiny.
