China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 737: The Three Kingdoms Military Advisor Series, Xiao Gao Yuanyuan
"Signal" is nearing the final stage of its broadcast, but the popularity remains.

Another bombshell has exploded in the entire film and television industry.

"Directed by Zhang Yongxin, produced and starred by Wu Xiubo, and starring Li Cheng, Yu Hewei, Zhang Junmi, Tang Yixin and other stars, the large-scale historical drama "The Advisors Alliance" started filming today at Hengdian World Studios!"

"It took three years to prepare for this drama, with a total investment of 3 million yuan. The crew built six studios based on historical restoration, covering a total area of ​​nearly 2 square meters! The treacherous heroes of the Three Kingdoms and the struggle for power will recreate the legendary life of Sima Yi, the great military strategist of the Wei Kingdom, for you!"

Another S-level major project has been launched, and all the film and television companies in the industry are paying close attention.

Even Jiangdong Entertainment was slightly shaken by this.

Jiang Xuehuan, director of Jiangdong's TV drama business department, and Fang Tianliang, head of the Three Kingdoms series film and television project team, all looked grim when they reported their work to Zhou Yutang.

Because the Three Kingdoms series of film and television plans is a key development project personally designated by Zhou Yutang.

However, "The Advisors Alliance" collided with Jiangdong's own "The Advisors Alliance" series. Even before Jiangdong made any progress, the other party took the lead.

"Boss Zhou, we have checked out all the producers. Do you want to let the people below do the work?"

Jiang Xueluo was a strong woman who was in charge of Zhouyi back then. Now she holds even more power in Jiangdong, and the resources she can mobilize are incomparable to the past.

From her point of view, since the projects collided, of course she would wish for the death of her rival.

"Need not."

Zhou Yutang sat in a chair, his posture relaxed and comfortable, and threw the pen on the table: "Follow our own plan, don't let others disrupt our progress, call someone to come to the meeting."

After all, the copyright of the Three Kingdoms is not exclusively owned by Jiangdong.

The Four Great Classical Novels are the treasures of Chinese culture.

Just like Journey to the West, Romance of the Three Kingdoms is inherently popular.

Even as early as seven or eight years ago, a number of Three Kingdoms series film and television works had emerged in the circle.

It was those people from the Hong Kong circle who went north and operated a bunch of Three Kingdoms series film and television projects, such as Wu Baige's "Red Cliff" and Feidiemao's "Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon".

Because these people's projects failed miserably, the popularity of the Three Kingdoms theme has gradually faded in recent years.

After all, film and television projects are not charity. If they don’t make money, investors won’t go for it anyway.

However, according to market assessment, TV dramas and movies on the Three Kingdoms theme undoubtedly still have a considerable audience group.

Before "The Advisors Alliance", a Sino-Korean co-production drama "The Legend of Zhao Zilong" was launched last year.

This project was led by Mango TV, and they originally wanted Lin Yoona to be the lead actress, but later Yoona did not accept the role. As a result, the role was given to Kim So Hyun.

This drama was delayed for a long time and was broadcast simultaneously with "Signal", which whetted the audience's appetite, but in the end it was a big disappointment.

The costumes, special effects, plot, lines and other aspects are all low.

The Douban score is 4.4, and there is still room for decline.

Kim So Hyun, who has been very popular in South Korea in the past two years, was wildly mocked by the crowd, and the male lead Lin Gou was also unable to escape.

Zhao Zilong, with his white horse, silver spear and courage, holds a very high status in the hearts of the Chinese people.

Lin Gou's portrayal of Zhao Zilong, however, only knew how to keep a straight face and act cool. No matter he was happy, angry, shocked or serious, he only frowned and glared.

Lin Yoona, who was far away in South Korea, also saw the news and breathed a sigh of relief.

Feeling lucky to have survived a disaster, the Girls' Generation idol said that they had no way to repay the general and could only wear their stage costumes to pledge their love to the general.

In the conference room, the executives of Jiangdong Entertainment's TV drama business department couldn't help but straighten their backs and listen to Zhou Yutang's speech attentively.

"On the contrary, I hope that they can make a name for themselves. The entire Chinese film and television drama market needs more types of high-quality film and television dramas. It will definitely be a good thing for the audience if a hundred flowers bloom."

Zhou Yutang is tall and slender with his sleeves rolled up.

His calm words conceal passion, as well as a sophistication and pattern that is totally inconsistent with his age.

Ni Ni crossed her graceful legs under the table, her toes raised on her double-toed bow-knot flat shoes, and her two slender white hands crossed under her chin.

Precocious girls like her are particularly interested in charming and successful men like Zhou Yutang.

In the conference room, some people were quickly writing something down in their black leather notebooks; some people nodded slightly, as if thinking about something; and some people had expressions of admiration and relaxed smiles on their faces.

So scared!
As long as Zhou Yutang is there, Jiangdong's position as the leader in the entertainment industry will always be as solid as Mount Tai, and no one can shake it.

This is the absolute confidence that the Grand Commander's glorious military achievements over the past few years have brought to everyone.

We are still digesting the success of last year's "The Journey of Flower". Since the beginning of this year, "Joy of Life 3" has become a phenomenal hit, and "Signal" has also seen a surge in both ratings and reputation.

And all these are just the beginning of Jiangdong’s glory this year.

The PPT projected on the projection screen well presented the annual strategic goals of Jiangdong's TV drama business.

This year, with the drama "The Lonely and Great God" as a guarantee, it has basically booked the title of the best drama of the year.

"Snow" is the ultimate S+ king bomb, and "Eternal Love" and another "Princess Agents" co-produced with Tangren Film and Television, are also rated S.

Zhou Yutang changed the subject and talked about the company's arrangements for the Misty Theater.
"My Dangerous Wife is still in communication with Shanghai Tomato TV. The next two dramas of Misty Theater are The Undocumented Crime and Day and Night Chase, which can be prepared in the second half of the year."

The meeting room gradually began to discuss in low voices. Zhou Yutang took a sip of water to catch his breath and continued, "For "The Undocumented Crime", Lao Suan will be the director."

"Mr. Zhou, I..."

The young director who was called, who was sitting at the last seat, stood up as everyone stared at him. He felt a little excited and a little flattered.

"I'll leave the Undocumented Crime project to you. If you have any questions, please contact Director Jiang directly."

After a pause, Zhou Yutang tapped the table with his fingers: "As for 'Day and Night Chase', we will move forward with a low profile. Mr. Li will take the legal team to coordinate and strive to buy out the copyright in one go."

The Zijin Chen series of crime novels had long been in Zhou Yutang's collection, and "Day and Night Chase" was the winner of the Jiangdong Screenwriter Gold Award.

This is an interesting story.

Ever since Zhou Yutang pushed for the establishment of the Gold Award for Screenwriters behind the scenes, it has not only caused a sensation in China's professional screenwriter circle.

It also has a fatal attraction for the entire online writers and traditional author circles.

It is not even limited to literary and artistic workers, people from all walks of life in society are actively participating.

After all, the temptation of millions of dollars in bonuses is too strong.

For ordinary people, you can write a script in your spare time and submit it to see how it goes.

Even if you are not selected, you will not lose anything. If you are really selected, it means you have achieved class transition. A few million is enough to live a comfortable life in a small city for the rest of your life.

The scriptwriter of "Day and Night" used to be a lawyer. He collaborated with his girlfriend to complete the script.

The core setting of the twin brothers sharing the same identity and the outline of the plot and emotional clues are simply wonderful.

As expected, an accident happened.

Not long after the script was written, the couple broke up as neither of them was willing to give in over the bonus.

Zhou Yutang didn't bother to care about their bickering, so he asked the legal team to take action directly to completely resolve his worries.

Pony Ma’s Nanshan Pizza Hut is very powerful, and the Jiangdong Group’s legal team is no pushover.

Zhou Yutang received a call from Teacher Yao and went to the school to discuss the Jiangdong Scholarship.

I had just rejected a request for an autograph from a fellow junior and was signing autographs for a pretty female junior at the entrance of Beijing Film Academy when I heard the cell phone in my pocket ring.

I touched it and a familiar voice came out.
"Look at the back!"

Taking off his sunglasses from his nose, Zhou Yutang looked into the rearview mirror.

Ning Hao's big head popped out of the car window and waved at him excitedly.

Although he is wearing a big gold chain and looks like a idler, he is actually quite well-mannered and knows that you cannot honk at the school gate.

Zhou Yutang was very busy during this period, so Ning Hao took his wife on a trip abroad.

He also went to Anfield to watch a game under the banner of the Grand Governor, and when he came back he claimed to be a die-hard Red Army fan for 20 years.

After parking the car, Ning Hao excitedly pulled Zhou Yutang to talk about football: "The Red Army has a good record this year, and they will definitely play in the Champions League next year."

"The season still has a month to go before it ends, so it's hard to say." Zhou Yutang said modestly.

"It was a great game. Klopp is really good."

Since Zhou Yutang took over and replaced the new coach, the Red Army has sounded the clarion call for its rise.

Currently, they are 7 points behind the top Arsenal and basically have no chance of winning the championship. However, considering that this is the first year of the team's reconstruction and the team is in the running-in stage, being able to remain in the top four of the Premier League can be regarded as achieving the goal of advancing to the Champions League set at the beginning of the season.

The Reds' performance in the Europa League this season has also been remarkable.

Just last night, Ning Hao stayed up late to watch the game. In the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals, Liverpool was still trailing Bundesliga powerhouse Dortmund 1-4 with 23 minutes left at home.

As a result, in a crazy counterattack at the end, Pharaoh Salah and Mane flew on both wings and scored two goals in a row. In the stoppage time, Van Dijk completed the winning goal with a header, achieving a miraculous reversal.

Zhou Yutang’s account on TikTok followed up with a video celebrating the team’s advancement.

Ning Hao suddenly thought of something and said, "Oh, by the way, I saw that the Anfield stadium was full of TikTok ads. Many foreigners are playing this."

After all, football is the world's largest sport and has a very wide influence abroad.

Use the influence of football to promote the overseas version of Douyin, that is, TikTok.

This was the layout Zhou Yutang had made in advance.

Now it seems that the results are remarkable.

However, there is no need to tell this to Ning Hao.

"What are you doing at school?"

"Mr. Guo from the photography department said there was a film screening and asked me to help out."

"What kind of movie could attract Director Ning?"

"How would I know? Old Guo is so mysterious. Aren't you here for this?" Ning Haoqi asked curiously.

"Teacher Yao asked me to talk about the scholarship."

"Damn, if you had been born a decade earlier, I might have been able to get a scholarship."

Ning Hao muttered to himself as he walked side by side with Zhou Yutang towards the teachers' office building, chatting casually along the way.

The Film Academy is actually not very big, and it only took a few minutes to reach the teachers' building. I happened to see a girl walking out of the building, chatting and laughing with someone.

Zhou Yutang and Ning Hao were both stunned and paused slightly.

"Ah!? Mr. Zhou? Hello!"

The two girls' eyes lit up instantly, and they greeted him respectfully, not forgetting Ning Hao beside them: "Director Ning, hello."

"Well, hello."

"Mr. Zhou, Director Ning, we are your fans. Can we take a photo with you?"

Girls from the film academy are somewhat more outgoing than ordinary girls.

"No problem at all."

Ning Hao grinned and pulled Zhou Yutang to ask, "What year are you in?" "She's already a senior, and she's been admitted to graduate school."

"Keep up the good work."

After going upstairs, Ning Hao suddenly said, "These two school girls are pretty good-looking. The one on the left is prettier. Do you think they look like the same person?"

"Who?"

"Gao Yuanyuan."

Ning Hao's eyes lit up. Zhou Yutang thought about it and laughed: "It seems to be quite interesting."

In a trance, there really was some shadow of Da Meiyuan.

Judging from her face, she looks more like a combination of Gao Yuanyuan and Han Ga-in.

But she is more immature and does not have the mature charm of a queen like Da Meiyu now.

The two of them acted separately, Ning Hao went to find Lao Guo, and Zhou Yutang went to sit in Teacher Yao's office.

Teacher Yao is the vice president of the School of Performing Arts and one of the main persons in charge of the Jiangdong Yuyu Scholarship.

The Jiangdong Yuyu Award is a funding program for potential female college students.

The selection criteria are not limited to any major, and mainly depend on the academic performance of regular professional courses and active participation in Jiangdong charity and public welfare activities.

Zhou Yutang flipped through Teacher Yao's form, his expression slightly surprised.

The little Gao Yuanyuan just now was actually on it too.

After asking about the situation, I found out that the girl named Jiang Peiyao is also quite amazing. She grew up in a military compound, graduated from the undergraduate program of the Film Academy this year, and was admitted to the graduate program of the same school.

"Yu Tang, do you want to sign her?"

Teacher Yao said with a smile: "Yaoyao seems to have signed with a company, Taiyang Chuanhe."

"That's okay."

Zhou Yutang just asked casually and didn't pay much attention to this fish that slipped through the net.

While chatting with several teachers, he browsed through the documents and signed them in a flamboyant manner.

I heard that a relative of a teacher in the office invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in the "Ip Man 3" project, and my pen paused.

When signing the investment contract with Kuailu, the other party made a lot of promises, promising guaranteed profits and no losses, and that the investment period was only three months with a rate of return starting at 9%.

Zhou Yutang laughed when he heard this.

In the film and television industry, is there any guarantee of making a profit?
The failure of a major project could potentially bring down the company.

Now even LeTV's boss Jia can't stand it anymore and has given up the plan to list LeTV Pictures independently.

Capitalists are heartless. Boss Shi got wind of the news and ran off to America to have a good time, leaving the investors in tears.

After chatting with Teacher Yao for a while, Wang Jinsong came over mysteriously and invited Zhou Yutang to join the film screening.

"Teacher Wong."

Zhou Yutang asked curiously, "Whose project is it that is being planned so grandly?"

Wang Jinsong coughed twice and said vaguely: "You will know when you see it."

"What is your name?"

Zhou Yutang frowned, realizing that something seemed wrong.

"Pure Minds: Chasing the Dream of Show Business", since you are here, go and watch it together and give some opinions."

Just hearing this name, Zhou Yutang's pupils trembled, dead memories in his mind awakened, and his expression changed slightly without being noticeable.

"What's going on?"

"Teacher Wang, I suddenly remembered that Director Liu from Golden Shield just called and said there is a meeting to be held later."

"."

Wang Jinsong did not force Zhou Yutang to stay.

He knew the value of the Golden Shield, which mostly involved some mainstream projects.

The driver had just driven the car out of the school gate when he received another message from Ning Hao: "Why haven't you come yet? Lao Wang said he went to invite you?"

"I have something to do, so I'll leave first."

Zhou Yutang mourned for him for three seconds in his heart and left the school without looking back.

Da da da.

The high heels made a crisp sound when hitting the ground.

Gao Yuanyuan has soft black hair falling on her shoulders and light makeup on her face.

She was just wearing a fresh white long skirt with lace on the hem, and a black suit jacket that looked like a fairy tale on the outside, and a black chain bag on her shoulder.

The whole person is dressed in a fresh and simple yet dignified manner.

Da Meiyu is obviously in a good mood today, with a bright smile on her delicate face.

The eyes of the entertainment reporters who were stationed in the grass in front of Jiangdong Building were shining, and passers-by couldn't take their eyes off them.

It's extremely beautiful and breathtakingly beautiful.

It was not the first time that Xiaoxue, the front desk lady at Jiangdong Entertainment Building, had met Gao Yuanyuan. She was always amazed every time they met, and this time was no exception.
Pulling Huihui to her feet, Xiaoxue came forward and said, "Sister Yuanyuan, Mr. Zhou is in a meeting. He asked me to take you to see the finished film of My Dangerous Wife. The schedule for the evening concert has been arranged."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Gao Yuanyuan smiled with her eyes curved.

Huihui said with some envy: "Sister Yuanyuan, are you going to Lu Han's concert tonight?"

"Well, are you a Lu Han fan?"

"Hui Hui is a fan of Lao Lu."

"Then I'll tell Yu Tang to reserve tickets for you two."

"Thank you, Sister Yuanyuan."

"Director Liu, I'm sorry to trouble you with this matter."

“Art creation requires space. As long as the core value is correct, the rest is trivial.”

The middle-aged man with a crew cut and a resolute face looked at the youngest richest man in China with a friendly smile.

All projects of the Misty Theater are produced by Zhou Yutang and Han Sanping. In addition, Director Liu of Golden Shield Film and Television was invited to be the script consultant.

Jindun has several directors, and Zhou Yutang maintains good relations with all of them.

For example, Director Li from the Logistics Support Department who was the nominal chief producer of "In the Name of People".

For example, Director Liu, who is currently the producer and script consultant of "Operation Mekong", is from Yancheng, Jiangsu Province.

With the relationship of fellow villagers, many things will go smoothly.

Jiangdong Misty Theater mainly produces suspense crime dramas, which are sensitive in subject matter and can easily cross the line.

Now we have the endorsement of the Golden Shield Film and Television Culture Center, plus the support of Han Sanping’s connections, plus Governor Zhou’s own deterrent power.

This is enough to ensure that the TV series of Jiangdong Misty Theater will proceed smoothly without too many cuts in content.

After checking the progress of Operation Mekong and taking a tour of Vision Media under the guidance of Zhou Yutang, Director Liu looked around and sighed:
"Mr. Zhou, your Vision Media is indeed of the highest international standard. You put a lot of effort into it."

He is also a director himself and has shot many mainstream dramas, so he knows the value of Vision Media.

"Director Liu is overpraising me. There is still room for improvement."

Zhou Yutang chuckled, with a smug look on his face.

He has been tirelessly sucking blood from Hollywood and continuously investing, which is why Vision Media is what it is today.

"After we finish filming Mekong River, there will be another major case in the department. We may have a chance to cooperate then."

"Is it the big thunder case in the south?"

"Haha, I won't hide it from you, this is it."

Thinking of Zhou Yutang's relationship with the guy in Shanghai, Director Liu smiled even warmer: "We'll discuss this after the meeting."

After exchanging pleasantries and accompanying Director Liu to the car, Zhou Yutang finally had time to go see Da Meiyuan.

She was alone in the video room watching the full movie of "My Dangerous Wife", sinking into the sofa chair, sitting elegantly and quietly.

Seeing Zhou Yutang push the door open, her big round eyes and her smile bloomed, as if the whole room came alive in an instant.

"Busy working?"

"Yes, I just sent Director Liu away."

Zhou Yutang stretched out his hand and embraced her, feeling Da Meiyuan's waist which was as soft as a spring willow.

Then slightly downward, for a brief moment of tenderness.

Da Meiyuan supported Zhou Yutang's shoulders with both hands, her eyes flowing with charm, with some of the beauty that only a mature woman can have.

Hupu is permanent, but goddesses are ever-changing.

This sentence was really not wrong. Zhou Yutang hugged the beauty in his arms and told her about what happened to Xiao Gao Yuanyuan today.

Da Meiyuan was skeptical, but after searching on the Internet she realized that what Zhou Yutang said was true.

But what she was more concerned about was the Lu Han concert that she was about to attend, and she was actually as excited as a little girl.

Last month, Zhou Yutang attended the concert of South Korean pop diva IU and became a hot topic.

Da Meiyu saw it all and was envious. She was also an artistic young woman, so when she came back she started to act coquettishly and pestered Zhou Yutang to go to the concert with her.

Jiangdong’s own Lu Han released a new album “RELOADED” this year, and the performance was pretty good.

The Reloaded tour, planned by Mingjie, kicks off this month.

The first concert in Beijing will start tonight, followed by stops in Shanghai and Huadu.

As a top star in the circle, Lu Han's popularity is unquestionable. The tour tickets were sold out within 30 seconds after they were released.

There are definitely more wealthy people in China than you can imagine.

Even the VIP Special Package worth 7777 was sold out in ten seconds.

This is a specially customized ticket package for Lu Han's first tour. From concert tickets, airport shuttle, hotel accommodation, round-trip air tickets, and even a dinner after the concert, it can be said to be a comprehensive and thoughtful service.

Zhou Yutang and Gao Yuanyuan entered through a special channel and had an excellent location.

Looking around, the Capital Experience Center was almost full. Thousands of fans wearing deer antler headdresses cheered for Lu Han, and the golden glow sticks waved at the scene formed a yellow ocean.

Da Meiyuan felt the atmosphere and her smile became more charming, but she saw Zhou Yutang beside her sending WeChat messages and suddenly laughed, and she couldn't help but feel curious.
