China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 702 His Words Are the Rules
Zhou Yutang tilted his head slightly.

He adjusted his tie slightly in front of the mirror.

This time, she was attending a high-level formal meeting, so the heart-shaped tie that Da Meiyu bought came in handy.

In fact, he rarely pays attention to his clothes.

When I first debuted, I was even criticized for always wearing canvas shoes.

Later, all the clothes of various styles in the wardrobe were basically bought by beauties such as Gao Yuanyuan and Liu Shishi.

A neat and well-ironed black suit highlights his tall and straight figure.

Compared with the previous casual and casual style, it has a more formal feel.

This is not the first time Zhou Yutang has appeared in an official occasion.

My visit to the Blue House with Teacher Ma also made headlines in both countries.

But this time, the person beside him was not Teacher Ma, but the princess of the Beijing circle, Xu Qing.

With her hair tied up behind her head and wearing a blue long dress, she exudes a graceful and elegant temperament.

There are many beauties in the entertainment industry, but not everyone can be like Xu Qing, who exudes confidence and composure in her every move, thanks to her family background.

However, the princess of the Beijing circle also knows who the protagonist is today.

Most of the time I just smile quietly and act as a beautiful vase.

With a translator acting as a bridge of communication, the atmosphere of the symposium was quite friendly and pleasant.

After the meeting was over, Xu Qing came out of the embassy and approached me to talk:
"Mr. Zhou, shall we go to the premiere together later?"

Today is the premiere of the movie "Mr. Six" produced by Huayi.

In order to avoid the release date of "Detective Chinatown 24" which was scheduled for the th, Huayi made a feint and took the lead in advancing the release date of the movie, claiming that it was for commercial considerations.

"Feel sorry."

Zhou Yutang glanced at the time on his watch and politely declined: "I have an interview scheduled later."

He is really busy.

This time, he came out of the crew mainly to promote the movie, and even postponed the premiere of Guangguang and Deng Chao's movie "Bad Angels".

Although we are friends, we are rivals since our movies are released at the same time.

Even Deng Chao only sent Li Shuang to attend the premiere, so it was naturally impossible for Zhou Yutang to go to support Guan Miao and Xiao Gangpao, with whom he had an average relationship.

"That's such a shame."

Zhou Yutang gave her a way out, and Princess Xu looked regretful but also expressed her understanding.

Recently, the TV drama circle has been in a fierce battle, while the film circle is quite quiet, apart from "Fall in Love Like a Star" co-starring with Da Mimi and Chen Xiao, which was suppressed by Huayi's "Ex-Files 2".

"The Incredibles", co-starring Wang Baoqi, Xiao Shenyang and Dong Xiaopeng, only grossed 5429 million in its first week and was also a bad hit.

Hua Yi was able to feel proud and had another trump card in his hand.

That is, the movie "Old Cannon" starring Xiao Gangpao will be released in advance to prepare for the Lunar New Year holiday.

"Li Yifeng is very sunny. Every time I see him, I feel that the room is very bright."

"Fanfan is a simple boy who is eager for change. He is very motivated and has a different feeling from Fengfeng.

I have seen a similar temperament in Zhou Yutang. From the image point of view, he is very suitable to play a popular lover, and his acting ability is also outstanding among his peers. He has his own personality. I think that when he reaches my age, he can take over my position and play the old man Liu Ye."

The little steel cannon has always known what to say to attract traffic.

In the past, whenever he had a movie released, he always had some outrageous words that would attract people's attention.

Having won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor this time, he acted like a senior and at the premiere, he did not hesitate to praise this new generation's top-tier actor.

Wu Yifan also licked him and said that Little Cannon was his idol and that who else but the great Chinese director could be his dormitory manager.

After recording the program, it was already evening when we came out of the CCTV building.

Zhou Yutang saw the coverage of the premiere of "Old Cannon", which had a very luxurious star lineup.

Megan started to get excited online, and it seemed that Wu Yifan, who was named by the little cannon, was about to take over from Zhou Dudu and become the next leader of the entertainment industry.

If it weren't for the secret things Lu Han had said, Zhou Yutang would have almost believed it. He shook his head and laughed, "What a great handover and inheritance."

“I feel very honored and excited to attend this conference.

First of all, I would like to say that our country's cultural and artistic undertakings are developing better and better. The country's emphasis on the cultural and artistic industry has given cultural and artistic workers more room to display their talents.

I have learned a lot from the spirit of the speech and the documents from above. We must go deep into the masses, create works that the masses like to see and hear, and create good works with positive energy."

In the official news coverage of this symposium, Zhou Yutang was given a rare ten-second solo speaking shot.

Zhou Yutang, wearing a neat suit and a pair of black-framed glasses, is still naturally handsome.

But compared to his appearance, his gentleness, refined conversation, and the profound temperament that is unique to those in a superior position are more attractive.

Zhang Ruolan watched the news in the hotel and took a photo to send to Zhou Yutang.

That's what women are like.

When a relationship crosses boundaries, it becomes very, very clingy.

Even though we have been separated for only a few days, we have not yet made it through the last step.

But in Zhang Ruolan's heart, Zhou Yutang has been placed in a very important position.

Not only Zhang Ruolan paid attention to it, but also Da Mimi, who ended the film road show early and rejoined the crew, sent a message saying that she wanted to unlock the skin of Governor Zhou wearing this suit and glasses.
It was reported in the official news and caused quite a stir.

The news headlines of major portals, the hot posts on forums, and the hot searches on Weibo were all about the photo of Zhou Yutang and Mei SIR, overshadowing the premiere of "Mr. Six".

"The Grand Commander has such a strong aura."

"Brother, you've been keeping a low profile for so long, why are you making such a big deal when you show up?"

"Detective Chinatown will be released soon, let's support the Grand Commander."

When netizens saw the news, they instantly became excited.

Logically speaking, the literary and artistic circle has never had anything to do with the political arena.

Apart from world-renowned superstars like Jackie Chan, there are also few who can sit at the table and have pleasant conversations with dignitaries from various countries.

Among the younger generation.

Only Zhou Yutang can enjoy such treatment.

Moreover, he is the behind-the-scenes helmsman of the Jiangdong Group.

To some extent.

Zhou Yutang's influence among high-level officials of various countries is definitely not inferior to Jackie Chan, and may even surpass it!
"The movie "Old Cannon" co-produced by Huayi and China Film Group, grossed 5500 million yuan on the first day. Feng Xiaogang once again showed his loyalty, and Li Yifeng and Wu Yifan showed their talents as top actors!"

"The online movie "Never Expected" created by the original team of Wanhe Tianyi grossed 4993 million on the first day!"

"The final trailer of Detective Chinatown has been released, with Governor Zhou, Lu Han and Wang Baoqi making surprise appearances!"

As Christmas Eve approaches, the film market is finally showing signs of recovery.

Although "Mr. Six" was highly hyped, its box office was just average and there were no big surprises.

Many movie fans went to the cinema just to see the new generation of top two stars, but they found that it was just the young actors showing off the whole time.

"The plot is good, Gang Paoer's acting is explosive, and the veteran actors also act very well, except for Li Yifeng and Wu Yifan, whose acting is really distracting."

"I talked about the rules for two hours and thought I was so awesome. In the end, they followed your rules and you turned around and reported them."

"Xu Qing is so beautiful."

"How come this sister never gets old? She's getting more and more attractive."

"."

The comments from netizens were very lively. Zhou Yutang took time out of his busy schedule to accompany Yi Jie, who had just returned to Beijing, to watch a movie.

It was an unexpected discovery that Ning Hao actually made a cameo appearance as an NPC who guides Little Cannon.

"Xu Qing is really beautiful."

Liu Shishi even expressed some envy when she talked about it: "She looked so good in the news that day. I don't know how she maintains her looks."

Don’t treat the old A8 as a luxury car.

Just the scene where Xiao Gangpao and Xu Qing are in the barber shop is enough to make countless young men have an orgasm.

Although many netizens said that Xu Qing in "Flowers and Youth" has princess syndrome and is very difficult to get along with.

But Zhou Yutang had a good impression of Xu Qing.

Anyway, I have never seen her being pretentious towards me. Every time we meet, she is always graceful and elegant, with admiration in her eyes.

He even took the initiative to ask me to act in a role with him, and was very humble. Unfortunately, there has never been a suitable opportunity for cooperation.

There are other reasons. Zhou Yutang grew up watching the TV series Xu Qing when he was a child.

In the film "Swordsman" starring a genius and invested by the ex-husband of the queen of pop, Xu Qing played the role of Saint Lady Ren Yingying, who was probably the white moonlight in the hearts of many young people.
Lu Chuan, who had been unsuccessful in his career and silent for a long time, was successful in love and won the heart of a beautiful woman.

Not long ago, Neon announced that his film "Jinling, Jinling" would be broadcast on Neon's video website NICONICON. In 2011, this film was screened on a small scale in Neon, but did not receive much response.

This time is different. NICONICON is now the largest video website in Japan and has publicly stated that it will provide considerable traffic support.

As soon as the news came out, Lu Chuan raised his head again. This time when he was promoting his new film and facing media interviews, he acted like a great director.
"I want to say that having 'Jinling, Jinling' screened in Japan is my lifelong dream and a great event for the Chinese film industry."

"I have been working hard on this matter over the past few years, and some friends in Japan are also helping to make this happen."

"I have observed that the film had a very good effect after being screened in Japan. A lot of people watched it and the discussion was very heated. Japanese netizens were very harsh, but at least 80% of the comments were positive. This made it more popular than The Thieves directed by Zhou Yutang."

Lu Chuan spoke freely: "In terms of eliminating the negative emotions between the two countries, I think that "Jinling, Jinling" has played a positive role as it should. As for historical memory, it is indeed necessary to resolve it. If it is not resolved, it will always become a dispute.
On the other hand, the recent domestic anti-Japanese drama is too outrageous and is completely misleading the public's historical perspective. I think the relevant departments must take relevant measures."

"Director Lu, since The Banquet failed at the box office, do you have any other plans besides The Lost Tomb which will be released during the Lunar New Year holiday?"

"Some films have a high artistic value and cannot be measured simply by box office performance. I will be approached by many projects in the future."

Lu Chuan said proudly: "I am personally very satisfied with the quality of this tomb-robbing movie that we collaborated with LeTV on.

I asked a professional box office analyst to watch the movie, and they all agreed that it has the potential to break the box office record of "Mojin: The Lost Legend". We'll wait and see.
There is also a big movie adapted from a wildlife theme, which can be considered a relatively special documentary.

In fact, most of my energy is still focused on connecting with Japan. I recently met with many members of the parliament there and had in-depth exchanges on issues such as Sino-Japanese relations and historical memory. I really benefited a lot from it."

"Lu Tailang, you have no shame at all."

"Damn, this bastard, I really want to punch him twice."

"If this kind of person lived in a war era, he would be a tough guy."

"It's so funny. You compare yourself to Zhou Yutang. How can you be compared with the Grand Commander?"

"Zhou Yutang's crime is not this serious."

As the interview with Director Lu was leaked, a storm broke out on the Internet.

The seventy-two princes opened fire at full force and launched a collective attack with all kinds of weird behavior.

He scolded Lu Chuan so harshly that he even shut down the comment section on Weibo.

Netizens still don’t feel relieved.

A large number of passers-by went to Zhou Yutang's Weibo and left messages, asking him to come out and seek justice.

Zhou Yutang seldom posts on Weibo, and it was only after Ni Ni reminded him that I discovered this.

"Zhang Zhao is crazy. He uses this thing to take over the task of "Grave Robbers"."

Zhou Yutang glanced at the trending searches on Weibo and frowned.

In fact, after the huge success of "Mojin: The Lost Tomb", China Film Group Corporation La Peikang came to him and wanted the film and television rights of one of the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series in Jiang Dong's hands.

Naturally, Zhou Yutang couldn't agree to that.

This piece of meat has to rot in my own pot, how can I let others do it?

The most important thing is that if the project fails to meet expectations, it will damage the reputation of the entire Ghost Blows Out the Light series.

There is a question mark over all the subsequent film and television plans for Ghost Blows Out the Light formulated by Jiang Dong.

La Peikang's reputation is not so great that Zhou Yutang would give up his own interests.

This matter will be settled.

Later, because the TV series "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" was very popular, LeTV proposed to pay a one-time buyout and enter into a profit-sharing contract for the subsequent film and television copyrights.

The price was raised all the way to 1.8 million, plus LeTV Video's film and television copyright library and other resources, Zhou Yutang finally agreed.

In terms of the completeness of the content of the work, "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" is obviously not as good as the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series.

With the good foundation laid by "Mojin: The Lost Tomb", most of the company's resources will definitely be invested in the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series.

Cashing in the film and television copyrights in a timely manner and recovering a large amount of funds can also help boost B Station's takeoff. This business is definitely not a loss.

What happened later had nothing to do with Zhou Yutang.

LeTV has its own operating ideas. The TV series features a cast of popular young actors including Li Yifeng and Yang Yang, with Tang Yan as well, and together they are going to hand over the cultural relics to the country.

It's a bit surprising, but the traffic is not low.

Except for Tang Yan, the other main creators basically reaped the benefits.

The original plan for the movie version of Tomb Raider was to invite the famous Hong Kong director Feidiemao to direct it.

With the team of Lu Han + Yang Yang + Tang Yan, Lu Chuan somehow intercepted the flying saucer hat and took over the piece of the Tomb Robbers' Chronicles pie.

Everyone knows the relationship between Zhou Yutang and Lu Chuan. Lu Han and Tang Yan withdrew from the project together. China Film Group and LeTV have joined forces, which is also a super traffic lineup.
Jing Bairan + Li Yifeng + Ma Sichun.

The famous actor Wang Jingchun was also invited to play the role of the third uncle.

The filming started in the middle of the year, and Boss Jia gave a strict order, so this dish was finally served during the Chinese New Year.

The movie is scheduled to be released on the 31st, one week later than "Detective Chinatown " which opened earlier. The slogan shouted by the producer is: "The annual blockbuster is booked."

Zhou Yutang's eyes flickered with a cold light like embers, and he turned around and notified Li Shuang: "Sister Shuang, postpone the release of Detective Chinatown to the 31st."

"The release date has been postponed?"

Li Shuang was a little surprised.

Zhou Yutang always plans before taking action, and it is rare to see him make decisions on a whim.

Zhou Yutang said firmly, "Yes, let's schedule it for the 31st, and have two rounds of advance screenings. I'll come and tell the theater chain."

During the same period, excluding the Little Steel Cannon's "Mr. Six", which grossed 2.53 million yuan in the first week, only Deng Chao's "Bad Angels" was still popular, and there were no other strong films.

Since he has asked for it, the preview will be guaranteed at least 20% of the screening time, so there is still some face.

“What about the roadshow plan?”

"The roadshow will continue as usual. I will give you a maximum of ten days."

"Okay, I'll do it."

Li Shuang didn't ask any more questions and went about carrying out the order readily.

"The movie "Detective Chinatown" directed by Zhou Yutang and starring Lu Han, Wang Baoqi and Gao Yuanyuan has been postponed to the 31st, and the advance screening has started!"

Soon, the news of the movie's postponement spread, and industry insiders who were waiting to see Governor Zhou fight the angels were probably going to be disappointed.

But the happiest person was Wang Changtian from Guangxian.

Because "Detective Chinatown" was previously scheduled to be released on the 24th, they were also worried that Christmas Eve would turn into a killing field.

Deng Chao, who received the news, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Changtian also called and said, "Yu Tang, why are you so disrespectful to Director Lu?"

"Is he worthy of my respect?"

"Haha, so domineering. I support you. Beat him down."

The corners of Wang Changtian's mouth were harder to suppress than AK at this moment.

In this way, "Bad Angels" will be released on the 24th, and it will be guaranteed to be scheduled for at least a week, so the box office is definitely worth looking forward to.

The purpose of holding preview screenings is actually to allow more audiences to see the film and lay a solid foundation for word-of-mouth communication after the official release.

Only those who are confident in the quality of a film will hold large-scale preview screenings.

Otherwise, if the movie receives a flood of negative reviews before it’s even released, subsequent audiences will be discouraged from watching it.

Lao Wang has seen the finished film of "Detective Chinatown" and knows its quality.

"How could he do this!?"

At the production company's meeting, Lu Chuan, who received the news, was so angry that his hands were shaking.

"Ugh!"

Zhang Zhao also frowned and sighed deeply.

He had seen Zhou Yutang's terrifying box office appeal.

If possible, who would be willing to fight Zhou Yutang?

But with such a sweet and tempting big cake available during the Lunar New Year holiday, who wouldn’t want to have a bite?
"Mr. Zhang, can you talk to Mr. La and ask him to still release the film on the 24th?"

"I don't have that much face."

Zhang Zhao glanced at Lu Chuan, who seemed to have suffered great injustice and whose eyes were red. He wanted to say something, but finally gave up.

Neither do you.

Neither does your father.

When Han Sanping was here, he could still control him by three points. Now that La Peikang has come up, he may not have that much face!
"But with the sudden postponement of the release date, the two films will be put together, and our schedule will definitely be occupied."

Lu Chuan spread her hands and muttered to Zhang Zhao: "This is against the rules!"

"rule?"

Zhang Zhao seemed to have heard a huge joke: "You tell him the rules? Then what he says is the rule."
