I was rejected when I wrote a song, but I became a king on my debut.

Chapter 313 Competition in the film and television sector?
After Zhou Yu finished chatting with Teacher Wang Teng and the others, he received several more phone calls. In short, because the box office of the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" exceeded 2 billion today, it took him a long time just to answer the phone and reply to the messages of congratulations.

At the moment, the Internet was also in an uproar because of this incident. The news that the box office of the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" exceeded 2 billion today instantly set off the entire network. The hot searches on major social platforms were dominated by this incident.

"Charlotte's Troubles has broken 2 billion box office!"

"The first Chinese-language film to break 2 billion box office history is born!"

“A new box office record for Chinese-language films!”

"Zhou Yu is the director of a 2 billion-dollar movie box office!"

“Charlotte’s Troubles is the No. 1 Chinese-language movie at the box office!”

……

Entries like this are high on the hot search lists of major platforms. In just over half an hour, the number of reposts and likes has reached hundreds of thousands, and the popularity and data are still soaring.

After all, this is the first Chinese-language film to have a box office of over 2 billion. And this is Zhou Yu's first film, which is his first film, and it has attracted a lot of attention. Even before this, because Zhou Yu's film is a comedy and the cast is not good, no one is optimistic about his film.

But now, Zhou Yu's movie has directly exceeded the 2 billion box office, becoming the number one box office movie in the history of Chinese-language films, setting a new movie box office record, and is a milestone movie!

This is a miracle. For so many years, Chinese-language films have not broken through the 2 billion box office. Now Zhou Yu has done it. He has really created a miracle!
"Oh my god! I just saw this news when I went to the toilet at the company. Two billion! That's incredible!"

"The first movie to break 2 billion in box office revenue, Zhou Yu is amazing!"

"This is now the number one Chinese-language movie at the box office. No movie has ever grossed over 2 billion yuan before, but Zhou Yu has done it now!"

"Hiss! I have to say, Zhou Yu is really terrifying, so powerful!"

"You know what, I also went to see the movie The Troubles of Charlotte, it's really good, this movie is worth it!"

……

Nowadays, everyone is discussing the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" on the Internet. It can be said that among so many movies throughout the summer vacation, the one that has attracted the most attention is Zhou Yu's "Charlotte's Troubles".

Not to mention that Zhou Yu's movie, which was originally not favored by everyone, has now exceeded the 2 billion box office, creating a miracle and a new record in the entire Chinese-language film box office history!
All these buff additions have directly made the popularity of this movie unprecedentedly high.

Netizens were watching the fun, but people in the industry, especially those in the entertainment companies that were competing with Zhou Yu during the summer, couldn't sit still. It could even be said that people in the entire film industry couldn't sit still.

Let’s not talk about Gu Tang Entertainment. This summer, Zhou Yu’s “Charlotte’s Troubles” was released at the same time. They originally wanted to surround and kill Zhou Yu, but Zhou Yu’s movie became a hit, and the box office soared, leaving them far behind.

Even their movie this summer had a high box office, and now it has exceeded 1 billion, making a lot of money. But this is already the top, while Zhou Yu's family has directly exceeded 2 billion box office, creating an unprecedented box office record, which is the reason why they feel unbalanced.

The point is, if this record was created by some famous directors in the industry, no one would be so shocked and would be more or less able to accept it.

As a result, now you say that this record was created by Zhou Yu, a newcomer who just switched to become a director. Moreover, the investment in this movie was so small, and the actors invited were also unknown little actors. But now it has directly won such a high box office result and has become a milestone work in the history of Chinese-language films. This is what makes everyone really envious.

This guy Zhou Yu is really enviable.

At this moment, Mr. Wang is in the office looking at the news online. Even in some of his own groups, everyone is discussing the fact that Zhou Yu's movie has broken the 2 billion box office today.

Such results really made Mr. Wang a little envious and jealous. This time, the film "Gunfire Charge" invested and filmed by their company did well, at least it made some money, but it was far from the level of Zhou Yu's "Charlotte's Troubles".

Even because their movie was blamed on Zhou Yu, many people on the Internet were mocking them.

But this time, Mr. Wang felt quite comfortable. Anyway, the current CEO position was not his. Those old guys looked down on him and forced him down. Now, isn't the guy they pushed up also no good?

Haha, he was talking about himself before, but now that they met Zhou Yu, weren’t they still defeated?
"You were talking about me before, but now you meet Zhou Yu, and you can't do anything to him either."

Mr. Wang curled his lips. This situation was exactly what he wanted to see. Only if those old guys made mistakes would he have a chance to return to the position of president.

On the Huatian Entertainment side, Mr. Liu sighed when he saw this situation. He was increasingly regretting his original decision.

Although their company did not have any movies released during the summer this year, he was still moved to see that Zhou Yu's first movie was such a great success, directly breaking the box office record.

He admired Zhou Yu from the beginning, but later...

Alas, I can only say that there was a mistake in the initial decision-making, and it is too late to say anything now.

Their company's main business is variety shows, Star Entertainment is movies, and Gu Tang Entertainment is TV series. This time, the movies of the other two companies were defeated by Zhou Yu, which also made him feel a little funny.

These two companies are experts in the film and television field, but now they are being firmly suppressed by a new director like Zhou Yu. It's really embarrassing.

"Movies and TV, this is a big cake."

Although their company has been one of the leading companies in the variety show field in recent years, they also want to get a piece of the big pie of film and television dramas.

"It all depends on whether our drama can become a hit in the second half of this year."

The reason why Mr. Liu didn't have any movies released this summer is because he and Gu Tang Entertainment jointly filmed a big-budget TV series. It was an ancient fantasy drama adapted from a classic novel, which is the most popular on the market in the past two years and the favorite subject of young people.

This is the first time their company has been involved in the field of TV dramas, so they sought cooperation with Gu Tang Entertainment, a leading company in the field of TV dramas.

Although Gu Tang Entertainment’s movie did not win the championship in the summer season, it still made the money it deserved.

For Huatian, it depends on whether the drama can become a hit in the second half of the year. The filming is now coming to an end, and it will be online in the second half of the year, around October or November.

"The film and television sector is our company's weak point. We hope to make a breakthrough this time. Otherwise, if we are two years late, we won't be able to get a share of the pie." Mr. Liu really wants to bite his teeth on this big pie. Their company is engaged in variety shows. The variety shows alone have made them one of the four largest companies. If they want to take over the film and television drama sector, they don't have to take over all of it. It's also okay to get a share of it.

In recent years, there are more and more entertainment companies, especially companies like Zhou Yu's, which are rampant in the circle. In such a short period of time, they have established a firm foothold in the capital management and disrupted the previously distributed interests.

Nowadays, many companies have started to work together for warmth, such as their cooperation with Gu Tang. Hua Tian needs to open up the film and television section, and Gu Tang needs the variety show section to increase exposure for its own artists.

Everyone gets what they need. As the saying goes, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. That's the truth.

When Mr. Liu thought about the TV series that they were going to release in the second half of the year, he realized that the cast was very strong, the original novel was very popular, and the adaptation was also very good. In addition, ancient puppet dramas have been very popular in the past two years, which made him very confident.

There was also heated discussion online about the fact that Zhou Yu's first movie had broken the 2 billion box office record, setting a new record in the history of domestic Chinese-language film box office.

Even today, CCTV specially sent out a message to congratulate Zhou Yu, and even commented and praised Zhou Yu's "Charlotte's Troubles".

All of a sudden, Zhou Yu and the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" were once again on the hot search list, and the popularity continued unabated.

"Oh my god! This is the first time I've seen CCTV praise a movie like this."

"This Zhou Yu is indeed the son of CCTV. Haha, CCTV can even send a message to congratulate him."

“But I have to say that Zhou Yu’s filming of Charlotte’s Anger is really good, and the meaning is really touching.”

"Indeed, this movie is really worth watching. If you haven't seen it yet, you really should go and watch it."

……

Zhou Yu didn't expect that CCTV would also post a message to congratulate him, or even post a special comment to praise his movie. He also posted a Weibo, which was a response to the box office of "Charlotte's Troubles" exceeding 2 billion, and also expressed gratitude to the many fans who supported the movie, and said that he would study hard in the future and strive to make more good movies.

In the evening, Zhou Yu and his team held a celebratory banquet at a hotel near the company. The entire floor was booked. After all, there were so many people from the crew, and Zhou Yu was such a big star, so not booking the whole place would easily cause some unnecessary trouble.

The celebration banquet was attended by people from Zhou Yu's company and the crew. Teacher Wang Teng and Teacher Li Li have recently participated in programs and activities in Zhonghai City. After the movie became a hit, their popularity also soared, and they received many invitations to programs and activities, and their work became busy.

Originally, the two of them had activities tonight, but when they heard Zhou Yu say that there would be a celebration banquet tonight, they came without saying a word.

At the dinner table, Teacher Wang Teng and Li Li stood up and looked at Zhou Yu excitedly and gratefully. Holding their wine glasses, they spoke with emotion.

"Xiao Zhou, thank you so much for this time. Without you, we wouldn't be where we are today. I have to toast you with this glass of wine no matter what I say."

As soon as the words fell, teachers Wang Teng and Li Li drank the wine in their glasses in one gulp.

They both knew very well that without Zhou Yu's appreciation and invitation to star in this movie, they would have no chance of becoming a hit, let alone becoming the male and female protagonists of a 2 billion box office movie.

Because of Zhou Yu and the movie "Charlotte's Troubles", their lives and careers were truly changed.

They originally thought that their lives would be like this, and they would just act in plays and make some money to get by. But who could have thought that they would be where they are today, becoming stars all over the country, and becoming the male and female protagonists of domestic box office champions!

Zhou Yu also knew what Teacher Wang Teng and the others were thinking, but he still stood up, accepted their toast, and spoke with a smile.

“That’s because of your wonderful performance, Brother Teng. It has nothing to do with me.

To be honest, even if Zhou Yu had such a good script, if there were no such good comedians as Brother Teng, the effect of the filming would definitely be different. It can be said that Teacher Wang Teng and others also contributed to the good results of the film.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Tonight is the celebration party. Brother Teng, Sister Li, let's eat and drink well."

Today is a happy day, and Zhou Yu doesn't want to hear these polite words anymore.

Teacher Wang Teng and the others saw this and said with a smile, "Okay, then let's eat and drink well."

Everyone was chatting, and after they had eaten and drunk their fill, Zhou Yu leaned over to Teacher Wang Teng and asked a question.

"Brother Teng, you told me today that you had something to tell me tonight. Now you can tell me what it is."

Zhou Yu still remembered that Wang Teng said on the phone today that he had something important to tell him in the evening, so it obviously couldn't be those polite words just now.

Seeing Zhou Yu asking, Teacher Wang Teng and Li Li looked at each other and asked Zhou Yu with determination.

"Xiao Zhou, your sister Li and I just want to ask you, is your company still short of people?"

They smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Your sister Li and I have always been self-employed. Our careers have not improved over the years. We have been busy recently. Your sister Li and I just want to sign a company to see if we can..."

Before Wang Teng finished speaking, Zhou Yu smiled and said, "No, Brother Teng, it's just this matter. I thought it was something big. No problem. I welcome it."

He was also very happy: "If you didn't mention it today, I would actually like to say it. What our company lacks is excellent actors like Brother Teng and Sister Li. If you want to come, I will definitely welcome you."

Zhou Yu actually had this idea a long time ago. If the company wants to develop, artists are definitely indispensable. Excellent actors like Wang Teng and Li Li are exactly what he lacks. If he hadn't been too busy some time ago, he would have told the two of them about this.

Wang Teng and Li Li were delighted to see this. Many entertainment companies had approached them during this period, but they didn't quite believe them. They had absolute trust in Zhou Yu and were optimistic about Zhou Yu's company.

That's why it has been delayed until now.

Zhou Yu said directly: "If you are free, Brother Teng, you can come to the company to sign the contract tomorrow. I promise to give you the best treatment."

"Thank you so much, Xiao Zhou!"
