China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 753: The young are formidable, the country is unshakable
Governor Zhou brought back many antiques from abroad.

Some go through formal channels, while others use unconventional means.

After all, the main policy abroad is relaxation and freedom, and there are many cases like Brother Ni stealing from his employer.

Da Mimi held Zhou Yutang in her arms, looking at the documents and pictures on the tablet, admiring the treasure with great interest.

I would make a few comments from time to time.

After figuring out the value of this batch of antiques, Yang Mi didn't care about the mischievous hands on the pomelo-like honey, and sighed:

"Boss Zhou, you are so powerful."

"Sister Mi, same here."

Zhou Yutang laughed teasingly in Da Mimi's ear and said, "I see that your endorsements have been taken abroad."

There are many plots in "The Interpreter" that take place in Europe. The crew went to Switzerland for location shooting. Da Mimi was also invited to be the image spokesperson for the Swiss National Tourism Board and has been in the spotlight recently.

"Well, he is no match for you, Boss Zhou."

The ears were bitten and the business was blown, Da Mimi's body was soft and soft, and her eyes were as charming as silk: "He invested in Haidilao, played in clubs, and collected antiques."

No matter how beautiful a woman is, she still has the gene of admiring strong men in her bones.

This meaningless murmur ignited the desire in Governor Zhou's heart that had not yet completely subsided.

While discussing antique collections, Yang Mi pushed him away weakly with her palm.

She gathered her hair behind her head, licked her red lips, elegantly raised the goblet, and took a sip of champagne.

Then, she bowed her head and asked Governor Zhou to drink imported wine, and she sat on his lap without knowing when.
Tonight is a long night.

It’s long enough to listen to the spring breeze blowing the moonlight onto the windowsill several times.

He was dressed in rags and linen, looking as miserable as a refugee fleeing famine.

Today's battle-damaged version of the Grand Commander attracted a crowd of people from the crew to watch.

It was fine if they just enjoyed the sight, but no one dared to pick up their phone to take pictures.

The shabby and battle-damaged Prince first boasted about the achievements and background of Northern Liang King Xu Xiao in a rhythmic manner, and pointed at his own weathered and dusty handsome face and said with clear eyes:
"Old man, do you understand what I just said?"

The old man opposite folded his hands and nodded.

His Royal Highness secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and regardless of the dust, he sat cross-legged on the ground, pointed at himself, and said seriously: "And I am the prince of Beiliang, the most dissolute man in the world, Xu Fengnian."

"Now that I'm in trouble, I'll eat a few sweet potatoes from you. When I return to the palace someday, I'll definitely reward you handsomely. I won't let you down. Do you think about it?"

As he was talking, an old man with ragged clothes and white hair mixed with a few straws reached out stealthily to touch some sweet potatoes on the ground.

"Sweet potato thief! Stop! Don't run!"

The old farmer caught a glimpse of the dishonest hand, raised his fork in anger and started cursing.

"The wind is tight! Pull!"

The ragged old man who had taken the melon ran away screaming, leaving the equally destitute Crown Prince standing there in a daze.

Details everywhere.

The ragged old man is Lao Huang. He is very good at martial arts, so he can run very fast. When Xu Fengnian first appeared, he had not yet received the Dahuangting plug-in, so at most he was just a playboy who had suffered a lot.

——This is the opening scene of the first season of "Snow". At the beginning, Xu Fengnian’s narration introduces the background of "Snow" to facilitate the understanding of the audience who have not read the original novel.

It also points out the epitome of Xu Fengnian and Lao Huang's hard life during their three years of wandering around.

"OK, passed!"

After director Li Muge called out, Zhang Ruojun slapped his thigh and laughed like a pig: "Oh, this is too funny, Brother Tang, you have a talent for comedy."

Meng Ziyi, a girl from Northeast China who was watching, had no idea what fear was. She said frankly, "I suddenly thought of the recent online meme about Qin Shi Huang borrowing money."

"Qin Shi Huang borrowed money?" Brother Long was very curious.

“I’ve even received scam text messages.”

Zhou Yutang was watching the filming behind the monitor. He glanced at Meng Ziyi and saw him take out his cell phone. He smiled and said, "Go, go, go, go, go, go, I am Qin Shi Huang. Actually, I am not dead. I have 100 tons of gold in Xi'an. I need 2000 yuan to remove the seal of the gold. You can transfer it to me via WeChat or Alipay. The account number is my cell phone number! Call me and I will give you half of the gold!"

"There are still such liars. Will anyone really fall for it?"

"It's true. I saw it on the news a while ago, and some people actually believed it."

Everyone in the crew was talking about it, and the plot just now was indeed like that.

However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was lying. He said he would return to the palace and actually gave money to others.

Everyone in the crew found it funny when they thought about it, but no one dared to laugh. They all lowered their heads and thought about sad things, pretending to have work to do.

It wasn't until Zhou Yutang confirmed the effects with the director of photography that he confirmed there were no problems.

Everyone felt relieved.

In fact, the filming of this scene did not go smoothly.

The problem mainly occurred with Zhou Yutang.

In the early part of the first season of Snow in the Snow, there are many scenes between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lao Huang. The sincere feelings between this pair of loyal servants and the young master, and the shining character of Lao Huang, are also one of the highlights of the whole show.

However, he and the actor Fan Ming who played Lao Huang didn't even exchange a few words.

They were not that familiar with each other, so it was naturally difficult to perform the kind of tacit understanding of joking around and relying on each other.

We originally planned to finish work at five o'clock, but for better shooting effects, we delayed it to half past six.

Because he was late for get off work, Zhou Yutang used his money to treat the entire crew to a seafood dinner in the evening.

For the role of Jian Jiuhuang, the casting team auditioned many veteran actors and finally decided on Mr. Fan Ming.

When many people mention Teacher Fan Ming, the first thing that comes to mind is Lao Gao in "The Story of the Kitchen Team" or Constable Xing from the Seven Heroes Town in "Wulin Waijiao".

He has appeared in many comedy films and TV series, bringing a lot of joy to the audience, but this does not mean that this national first-class actor can only perform comedies.

Fan Ming comes from a drama background and has a solid foundation, and can handle many different types of roles.

For example, Ju Guangda, the male lead in the TV series "Migrant Workers", is simple and honest; in "Romance to the Left, Marriage to the Right", he played the literary and artistic intellectual editor Fan, and there was no sense of incongruity.

He is of the right age, thin and has a weathered look.

Apart from the missing front teeth which was a bit difficult to deal with, the other conditions were very close to the yellow formation diagram that Zhou Yutang had imagined.

Fan Ming, who is 52 years old this year, joined the crew of "Snow" since its launch.

In the first few days when he didn't have any scenes, he just watched other actors' scenes from the side and figured out the operating rules of the crew.

This is the instinctive survival experience of old hands who have been in the circle for many years.

Different crews have different ways of operating, and it depends on who is the boss of the crew.

The crew in the snow undoubtedly revolved around Zhou Yutang. Even directors Li Muge and Sun Hao had to get the approval of Governor Zhou before they could shoot any shots.

Fan Ming thought this was normal.

After all, General Jiangdong is a top-tier director in the country, and having him in charge of the quality of the entire drama is like adding an insurance policy.

This was his first time working with the Grand Commander of Jiangdong. He originally thought that Commander Zhou, who was well-known in the circle and had achieved success at a young age, would inevitably be a little arrogant. However, after getting to know him, he found that his worries were completely unnecessary.

As long as you work hard, Zhou Yutang is easy to talk to.

This wasn't the first time he had used his money power to treat the entire group to a meal.

We will be moving to another location tomorrow, so we will have a half-day break in the morning. Wu Yuze did the work of a life producer, and was notified that we were allowed to have a drink in the evening.

Seeing that Zhou Yutang had specially brought Tsingtao beer to his table, Fan Ming quickly stood up from his seat, looking a little flattered, and tried hard to force a smile.

"Sit down, Mr. Fan."

Zhou Yutang politely poured a glass of wine for Fan Ming and said sincerely, "It was my fault today. I didn't grasp the rhythm of the performance well, and caused you to run so many times."

There were many NGs during filming today, and it felt wrong, he couldn't get into the mood.

Lao Huang, played by Fan Ming, shouted "The wind is blowing!" at the end to show his agility and run away.

He ran back and forth dozens of times, which was really exhausting for the old man.

While Zhou Yutang was talking, he tilted his head back and drank, holding the glass upside down.

"Don't be impatient, Mr. Zhou, take your time."

Fan Ming quickly joined in with a drink. They were all grown men and didn’t have any petty minds.

After a few beers, Zhou Yutang heard that Teacher Fan Ming was from Xuzhou, so he took his hand and started chatting with him.

From the world-famous Xuzhou clay pot chicken to Yunlong Lake, the general was fascinated by Teacher Fan’s hometown.

Liu Yifei saw this and felt a little admiration in her heart - although Xiao Zhou was sometimes a little erratic, his way of dealing with people was indeed impeccable.

Moreover, he seemed to have a unique charm that could easily bring him closer to others.

The main reason was that Fan Ming was good at acting, had little trouble, and was also a half-fellow villager of the Grand Commander, which was why he treated him so well.

The next day, we rehearsed the play by Zhou Yutang and Teacher Fan Ming.

Li Muge was surprised to find that the acting between the two people was obviously much better.

He was naturally overjoyed.

The crew's progress has been accelerated, which can save a lot of time. He can't wait to shoot the scene where Jian Jiuhuang fights Wang Xianzhi and then tortures His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Xiao Zhou, how did you do this?"

During the break, Liu Yifei couldn't help but come forward and ask, her confused look was a bit cute.

Zhou Yutang pinched her cheeks, pouted her rosy lips into an O shape, and teased her deliberately: "What do you mean by that? It's just a normal scene."

Last night’s homework was not done in vain. The tacit understanding between each other was cultivated in the process of interactive communication in such details of life.

If it weren't for the cultivation last night, Zhou Yutang would have slept with his feet touching each other. In the end, considering that the temperature was not right, he gave up.

But today, when I was communicating and rehearsing with Teacher Fan Ming, things were obviously much smoother, and the number of NGs was less than yesterday.

Including a fight scene with Chu Kuangnu, the old leader in the lake, Lao Huang slightly revealed the strength that only a top master can have.

The rosewood sword box, which contained an unknown number of swords, was opened.

Three famous swords flew out into the air.

The sword energy is like a dragon and a snake.

He easily subdued this seemingly invincible knife-wielding madman.

The filming of the crew was proceeding in an orderly manner, and "Mr. Good" finally came to a perfect conclusion in early June.

From then on, the TV screen was dominated by "Dear Translator".

The ratings have steadily exceeded 2, ranking first on both charts.

Da Mimi has been in high spirits recently, surpassing Jiang Shuying and becoming the queen of Weibo.

It is common to be on the hot search list, and it is as easy as taking candy from a sack to grab the headlines.

The drama invested by Mixing Media has achieved unexpected success. With the overwhelming popularity, advertising and investment have been sold out. Da Mimi has evolved into Capital Mimi, and is one step closer to completing the gambling contract.

Cai Yinong personally attended the launch conference of "Princess Agents" held by Tangren Film and Television in Hengdian.

Li Guoli, Zhao Liying, Han Dongjun, Song Tie, Dou Xiao and others lined up in a row, with a great momentum.

Liu Shishi is currently recording a variety show on Mango TV. The Bad Genius, directed by Wen Muye, has also been prepared and will start filming in late June. The Blade of the Assassin 2 is scheduled for the summer season in July, and will collide with Tang Yan at that time.

Last year, the long-legged little coquettish girl from Shanghai took on a Sino-Korean co-production blockbuster "The Bounty Hunter". When the movie is released, there will definitely be a fight between the three beauties and two best friends from "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".

Dramas such as "The Mystic Nine", "The Decryption", "Rouge", and "Yuzui Season 2", which are expected to be aired in June, have also launched publicity.

One worth mentioning is the "Yuzui" series, which is a web drama adapted from the novel of the same name "Yuzui" by online writer Chang Shuxin.

The first season was broadcast on iQiyi last month and became extremely popular, with the viewing volume being comparable to Jiang Dongjia’s first production of the Misty Theater, “Signal”.

You know, "Signal" has Zhou Yutang's golden signboard, plus Zhang Songwen's guaranteed ratings, so it's not surprising to achieve this result.

However, the "Yuzui" series was single-handedly carried out by the little-known Zhang Yi.

After all, it was after the huge success of crime and suspense films such as "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" and "The Accidental Murder" produced by Jiangdong last year that Jiangdong Entertainment officially announced its cooperation with Bilibili to produce the Misty Theater, a suspense and crime-themed theater.

There has been a surge in the popularity of suspense crime dramas in the film and television industry.

In addition to the film projects of big directors, video platforms including Tencent, LeTV, and iQiyi have also launched their own drama projects.

It’s just that there are many people who follow the trend, but only a few can stand out.

The suspense dramas from Tencent, LeTV and other companies plunged into the sea without even making a splash.

However, iQiyi's "Yuzui" series won the championship.

Chang Shuxin’s original character has played a big role in the series becoming so popular.

The traditional policemen that audiences have seen in the past are all upright and awe-inspiring, but Yu Zui is a little afraid of death, and often likes to be clever and take advantage of others.

There is no doubt that the essential tone of this character is justice, and it is through this image of a policeman who does not play by the rules but is close to life that he has aroused a sense of freshness and resonance among many viewers.

Social media is currently abuzz with discussions about the drama, with even the crew of "Snowy" discussing it in their daily filming schedule.

"It's said on the Internet that Xiaoxue and Liu Xing, brother and sister, are seeing their careers take off this year."

Zhang Ruojun joked.

"It really is."

Zhou Yutang also burst out laughing.

Since "Home with Kids", Yang Zi has been silent for many years, and Zhang Yi has also been silent.

The former became a top-tier star with Ode to Joy, and the latter also became an instant hit.

The actress who played the "big-breasted sister" Lin Yujing in the play also became famous. Zhang Ruojun scratched his head and said, "This seems to be our junior sister, right?"

"Beijing Film Academy 11th grade table book."

Governor Zhou blurted out without thinking. Liu Yifei's eyes were like knives, slashing him: "How did you know?"

"The results are good, I'm a little impressed."

Back then, this big-breasted lady beat out Little Yellow Duck, Yang Caiyu and others, and entered the acting department as the first among female students.

Beijing Film Academy is not big. Zhou Yutang met her several times when he went to the school and even took photos with her. She was a very outstanding beauty.

The only problem is that Yu Zui has to go to the hospital to see an ophthalmologist, because this junior sister can't tell that she is
Zhou Yutang was filming in a low-key manner on the set and declined all media interviews. However, outside, Wanda's Lao Wang stole the limelight.

Disney announced that it would bring its talent to China, and the Magic City Disneyland landed in early June, which indeed attracted a lot of attention.

In the CCTV program "Dialogue", Lao Wang responded to the host's question with great dominance: "As long as I am here and Wanda is here, Shanghai Disneyland will not be able to make a profit in the next 20 years!"

The host was stunned.

After the program was broadcast, most of the viewers in front of the TV had the same expression.

This also includes the crew in the snow. During dinner, they gathered together to watch Lao Wang’s videos.

"The richest man in the Celestial Empire speaks with dominance."

"Wanda is really awesome at this stage. I saw in the news that Wang Jingwei said in an interview with CNN that the acquisition of Legendary Pictures is just the beginning and there will be big moves next."

"Oh my god, what a rich dog owner."

At this stage, Wanda is at its peak, and everyone in the Snow crew knows what it means to be rich and inhumane.

Zhou Yutang knew very well that Lao Wang targeted Disney because there was an irreconcilable conflict between the fundamental interests of both parties.

Wanda decided at the group meeting to make the cultural tourism industry an important strategic direction for the future.

Relying on the group's real estate business, it began to invest heavily in the construction of Wanda City projects in many places across the country.

Just last month, Wanda City, Wanda’s first large-scale cultural, tourism and commercial complex, opened for business. A few days later, Disneyland opened in this Magic City.

Compared with Disney's 400 yuan ticket price, 1800 yuan per night standard room, and 80 yuan per hamburger, Wanda City, which is equipped with the world's top amusement equipment, can be said to be quite affordable.

Lao Wang is also planning to open nearly 20 similar theme park projects across the country, targeting Disney!
"Mr. Wang, you mentioned the importance of the cultural tourism industry. Many senior executives have resigned this year. Can you tell us about Wanda's future plans in the cultural and entertainment sector?"

"The country is permanent, but the soldiers are transient."

Wanda's old Wang waved his hand and said: "The earth will continue to rotate without anyone. Wanda will continue to acquire the six major Hollywood film companies, including 20th Century Fox, Columbia, Paramount, Universal Pictures, Warner Bros. and Disney."

"In addition, we have a strategic partnership with Jiangdong Entertainment. Jiangdong's Zhou Yutang, I think everyone calls him Governor Zhou. He is the most outstanding young man I have ever seen. His sense of smell and vision for the entertainment industry often make me feel incredible."

"The young prince is also very good."

"Xiao Cong has a broad vision among his peers, but compared with him, I still have a lot to learn. I also have things to learn from him."

"You speak very highly of Mr. Zhou."

"I think, considering his achievements, no matter how high the evaluation is, it's not too much, right?"

The richest man in China smiled and said, "Including the e-sports industry and live broadcast platform that Xiaocong is working on recently, Zhou Yutang had already thought of it a few years ago and made a complete industrial layout. Now Bilibili live broadcast is the first in the industry. Look at how popular "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" that was just released this year is?"

“You play games, too?”

"I don't know how to play it, but I've seen the news. The total global sales have now reached nearly five million copies, which should be a milestone for China's gaming industry."

The richest man in China did not hesitate to praise Zhou Yutang, as if he wanted to have a son like Zhou Yutang.

There was a group of people gathered next to the tablet, listening to the frog sounds.

Zhou Yutang was very pleased with the passive pretense. He waited until the video was finished before he stood up and waved his hand.

"Stop watching the fun and get ready to work."

"Clear the area, be quiet, and prepare for the test shoot!"

"All departments are in place!"

On the other hand, "Wolf Warrior 2" has finally been completed.

The cold front of Wolf Warrior is naturally the unshakable Wu Jing. Yu Qian of Deyunse has a good relationship with Wu Jing and makes a guest appearance as a greedy and black-hearted businessman.

However, the heroine in the movie had to go through some trouble.

The script sets the character as a Chinese-American female doctor sent to Africa, who must at least be fluent in English.

At first, the crew looked for Wang Ching-ying, who is also a Chinese-American actress with some fame in Hollywood and has starred in the "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." series.

But later due to a temporary conflict in schedule, Wu Jing once met an old friend of the opposite sex when he was wandering in the Hong Kong circle, so he met the requirements.

When Zhou Yutang received the project report, he asked, "Brother Jing, aren't you afraid of being beaten by Sister Nan?"

"Ahem, the leader has approved it, so it's not a big problem."

Wu Jing said in a very manly manner: "The date is chosen, and the filming will start on the 15th."

"How did Xiao Wang perform?"

"He's fine. He works out in the gym every day. He looks pretty good. Haven't you seen the photos of him?"

Zhou Yutang was a little surprised when he heard this. He opened his phone and found Mao Xiaoyu directly.

Whenever there is any gossip in the circle, Mao Xiaoyu can always get the first-hand information without having to search hard.

In just 5 seconds, Zhou Yutang received the latest gossip about Master Wang.

Last night around midnight, he came out of the bar, hugged a young model in hot pants, and got into his sports car.

The prince is permanent, but the young models come and go.

That night, Prince Wang was wearing a slightly tight short-sleeved shirt from a luxury brand.

It can be seen that the arm lines and the slightly protruding belly, which is different from before, actually have the outline of muscles.

Zhou Yutang couldn't help laughing.

The effect of exercising during the day and at night is quite remarkable.

It just so happens that Wanda's Prince Wang plays a rich second-generation military-enthusiast in "Wolf Warrior 2" and looks like he can handle guns.

This year's Magnolia Festival came to an end on the 11th.

Jiang Xuehuan attended the event on behalf of Zhou Yutang and took home the Best TV Drama trophy for "Joy of Life 3".

Hu Ge, who had been highly favored before, defeated Jin Dong, Li Xuejian, Zhu Yilong, and Tong Dawei for his role as Mei Changsu in "Nirvana in Fire", and won the Magnolia Award for Best Actor in his hometown.

Compared with many empty-headed stars in the circle, Lao Hu is considered to be quite culturally cultured.

He sincerely thanked the crew of "Nirvana in Fire" and his alma mater, Shanghai Theatre Academy, and did not forget to mention several nominees for Best Actor.

Finally, special thanks were given to the Grand Commander of Jiangdong.

In fact, after "Chinese Paladin III", Hu Ge's several movies have failed one after another, and it seems that he is on a downward slope.

At that time, Zhang Ruojun and Zhu Yilong starred in a hit drama by Jiangdong Entertainment, and their popularity soared, and they quickly became one of the most popular first-line actors in the circle.

It was Zhou Yutang who helped his brother.

The "Now You See Me" series alone is enough for him to wash away the nickname of box office poison.

Then he was pushed to star in "Nirvana in Fire", and became extremely popular. This year, he also served as the tourism ambassador of Shanghai, and rose to the peak of his acting career.

The Best Actress award went to Sun Li from "The Legend of Miyue", an award that has been controversial.

Some netizens sarcastically said that Sun Li was selected to the Magnolia Awards because she has a Shanghai hukou.

"It's a pity for Teacher Li."

Zhou Yutang has always felt that Li Xuejian’s acting in "The Young Marshal" is amazing.

He portrayed the spirit of that unruly hero to the fullest, both inside and out, in spirit and form, and really brought Zhang Zuolin to life!

"It's not a pity. Xiao Hu acted quite well."

Teacher Li Xuejian said with a smile, praising Hu Ge generously.

He plays the role of King Xu Xiao of Beiliang in "The Snow". He has been in the crew in the snow these days and did not go to the Magnolia Awards.

Last year's Magnolia Awards, his performance as the elderly man with Alzheimer's disease in "Hey! Old Man" was equally stunning.

However, he was treated unfairly by Bai Yulan.

In the end, it was Zhou Yutang who stood up for him.

The Grand Commander was furious.

There is turmoil in Shanghai.

In the end, even the noble Lord bowed his head, and Li Xuejian took home the Magnolia Award for Best Actor.

He has won many awards in his life.
But this award is undoubtedly the most special one.
