Entertainment: I really want to make progress

The charm of the two beauties from northern Xinjiang is irresistible.

Even the winter in Beijing is burning for them.

After a night of revelry, Reba followed the creators of "Ghost Blowing Light 2" to start roadshows, and she was the main force in publicity.

Nazha also reluctantly set off to return to the crew.

"Fighter of the Destiny" must be completed before the New Year, and the next shooting schedule is very tight.

Zhou Yutang directly entered the sage mode.

On the other side, poet Chen was probably doubting his life at this time.

The road paved by Mr. Chen, plus the rise of the first person to be deified in Cannes, is enough for poet Chen to live a lifetime, and it is natural for the audience to have high hopes for him.

After all, this is the top director of the country who shot "Yellow Earth" and "Farewell My Concubine".

The more expectations, the more disappointments.

As word of mouth continues to ferment, "The Great Wall" is destined to fail.

The sarcasm and ridicule from all sides almost drowned Director Chen.

The argument that "Farewell My Concubine" was shot by Mr. Chen has come out again on the Internet.

Pain!

It really hurts!

Yesterday, poet Chen sighed that his ambitions were difficult to achieve and there were many obstacles.

Today, the beautiful Diao Chan felt sorry for her husband.

Countless people are watching "The Great Wall", and it has been on the entertainment headlines almost every day.

Although the mainland box office of "The Great Wall" reached 925 million on the 30th, it has firmly ranked first among the Lunar New Year's Day box office.

However, neither the producer nor the director Chen Kaige himself is obviously satisfied with this result.

Apart from "The Great Wall", the premiere news of "Ghost Blowing Light 2" can be seen everywhere on major portals, hot posts on forums, hot searches on Weibo, and hot lists on Douyin.

Yesterday's premiere was very successful, including various film and television area up masters, and some film critics' first wave of viewing feedback, most of which gave good reviews.

"How was the first day box office?"

"Over 100 million in 11 hours, and 243 million on the first day!"

On the 31st, on the way to attend the seminar, Zhou Yutang took over the first day box office data report that Chen Duling had worked on all night.

"Well, this result is not bad."

The first day's screening was as high as 36.3%, plus the previous marketing work, it was slightly higher than expected.

Wang Changtian of Guangguang couldn't wait to call in, his voice could not hide his excitement,

"Yu Tang, when will we start making the sequel?"

On the first day of the movie's release, Guangguang's stock price soared on the spot, and Lao Wang tasted the sweetness.

"No hurry, let's talk about it after the movie is released."

"Boss, Sister Ni asked, how to arrange this year's annual meeting?"

"How is the voting on the company's intranet?"

"The girl group has a lot of support, and the TWICE group is also very popular this year."

Girls always have the dream of standing on the stage and shining.

Chen Duling is no exception

She likes girl group singing and dancing.

She is also a loyal fan of Jiangdong girl group and has bought many albums.

"TWICE?"

"It's JYP's girl group."

"Gorilla is quite capable..."

Zhou Yutang remembered that there seemed to be a cute girl with rabbit teeth in that group.

He only knew that Yoona and IU were very good, but he was not very familiar with the current girl groups.

"That's Lim Nayeon... Now the only one who can compete with ours is TWICE..."

Seeing Chen Duling talking about everything and being lively and excited, Zhou Yutang teased, "How about you go and perform a show?"

"Ah?"

Chen Duling was a little confused, and seemed to have considered the feasibility, and was a little embarrassed: "Well... I'm not very good at singing and dancing."

"Just kidding, just Wang Jiaer, and then let Cheng Xiao, Yang Chaoyue, and the SANA team come."

Zhou Yutang didn't tease her anymore, and smiled:

"If not, invite Nogizaka... Ju Jingyi and other popular ones, we have to spread positive energy."

Jiangdong also has a branch in Japan, and has business dealings with the local snakes there.

This year, the top has issued a ban on Korean artists, so we must pay attention to the impact.

There are no restrictions on Japanese artists, and letting the Japanese girl sing Chinese songs must be interesting.

"Can we invite Fujisai Asuka?"

"You decide."

Chen Duling nodded, her ponytail swaying.

In the past, she had only heard about the Jiangdong Annual Meeting on the Internet. Popular girl groups such as Girls' Generation, Crown, fx, and A pink had all come.

The scene was as good as a concert, and photos and videos were occasionally leaked, which was very enviable.

I didn't expect that she would have the opportunity to arrange these things in person this year, which was a bit dreamy.

Ni Ni was busy with the Starlight Awards at the end of the year on Bilibili. The Starlight Show held in conjunction with Yu Sheng last year was very successful.

This year, she must bring a wave of goods to the scene.

Talking to Chen Duling about the Starlight Awards and the company's annual meeting arrangements, time passed quickly. The driver in front slowed down and said:

"Mr. Zhou, we're here."

"Yeah."

Zhou Yutang opened the glasses case and put on the glasses, and instantly had a more elegant and gentle temperament.

Chen Duling glanced at it, handed over her makeup mirror, and said inexplicably: "Boss, these glasses..."

"What's wrong with the glasses?"

Zhou Yutang tidied up his appearance a little, and Chen Duling pursed her lips and said: "I think it matches this suit."

"Just do as I said just now. If you have any questions, go to Sister Shuang."

Zhou Yutang saw Li Dagou as soon as he got off the car, and he was slightly stunned.

In the past, Li Dagou usually wore a leather jacket and a pair of military boots. This elite dress of suit and leather shoes is a bit unusual.

He obviously didn't feel comfortable either, so he loosened his tie.

Film Bureau, in the conference room.

A seminar on the film "Operation Mekong" was held in Beijing.

Leaders from the Long Propaganda Department, the Film Bureau, the Six Gates, the Golden Shield, the Political and Cultural Department of the People's Daily, the Cultural Department of the People's Liberation Army Daily, the Navy, the Air Force and other departments gathered together.

Most of the top film and television company bosses were there, plus some scholars and experts in the industry, who could only sit at the end.

Official media reporters brought equipment to record the entire seminar.

A senior leader of the Six Gates headquarters said: "I don't understand movies, but Xiao Zhou's movie is very well made. The theme and story are perfect..."

When it was Zhang Hongsen's turn to speak, he praised: "Whether it is from creation and shooting to post-production, visual effects, etc., the unity and cooperation are all worth watching, showing the style of a great country...

It also found a new way to explore the innovative expression of the main theme of commercial movies and promote excellent main theme films in the new era of China..."

"Operation Mekong", which was released on National Day, was postponed and the total box office was finally fixed at 2.025 billion.

Another phenomenal main theme commercial blockbuster that broke through 2 billion has attracted widespread attention from public opinion, which is naturally of extraordinary significance.

The leader set the tone for this seminar.

As the MVP of the victory settlement stage, Zhou Yutang was undoubtedly the center of attention.

When it was his turn to summarize and share the successful experience of the commercial type of mainstream movies, Zhou Yutang was not at all nervous and gave a speech without a script:

"First of all, on behalf of the crew, I would like to express my gratitude to the organizer of this special seminar, and thank the leaders for their unremitting support, which has led to the current achievements of this project..."

In China, some things are never on stage.

What can be said at the meeting are all good and auspicious words.

This time, Zhou Yutang also covered all aspects and benefited everyone.

All the leaders present were very satisfied.

Director Tang of the Navy Political Department was even more confident and could not hide his smile.

On the Navy side, the ball was passed to Zhou Yutang, and she was very optimistic about the prospects of "Operation Red Sea".

On the Air Force Political Department side, the director of the Television Art Center saw that Zhou Yutang was earnestly retained by the leaders of the Six Gates News and Propaganda Bureau, and suddenly a trace of haze passed through his heart.

The tasks handed over by the superiors to Li Cheng and Huayi felt a little uncertain.

What level is Li Cheng?

Can he... compare with Zhou Yutang?

Governor Zhou's "Operation Mekong" was a big hit, and "Ghost Blows Out the Light 2" is still being screened, and it is expected to reach 2 billion box office, or even higher!

The momentum has been built up in the early stage, and now that the project has been launched, it is a done deal, and there is no use regretting.

There is only one way to go to the end.

"That's it."

Director Liu smiled and poured a cup of tea for Zhou Yutang: "Mr. Zhou, have you seen the news about the thunderous drug crackdown in 2013?"

Please... collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ (Six\\\\\\Nine\\\\\\Book\\\\\\!)

"What does Director Liu mean?"

Zhou Yutang is naturally familiar with this kind of major case that has made a sensation across the country.

"The department has discussed in a meeting that the drug crackdown should be made into a TV series, and you can do more work..."

"I will write the script first, and then contact Director Liu."

Zhou Yutang nodded slightly, knowing it in his heart, and did not refuse, and took on this burden readily.

The Director Liu he mentioned was the director of Golden Shield, and also Zhou Yutang's fellow villager from Yancheng.

They had worked together on "In the Name of the People", and he was also the producer and script consultant of "Operation Mekong".

He was responsible for the operation of the entire film and television project, and Director Liu was responsible for handling the troubles in the review. They had a tacit understanding of each other.

After returning to the company, after a brief communication, Zhou Yutang opened the word document.

After a little hesitation, he typed the four big words "Ice Breaking Operation"!

…

After the filming of "Chasing the Dragon" was completed, the post-production was placed in Vision Media. As the director, Fatty Wang went to Jiangdong Entertainment every few days.

He had bought a house in Beijing a long time ago, but he lived more in the mainland in recent years.

I heard that Zhou Yutang had taken on another main theme project of the Six Doors Headquarters. After curiously understanding it, he couldn't help but exclaimed:

"Boss Zhou, you are really playing big!"

Most of the film and television projects involving corruption in Hong Kong are undercover gangs, police and bandits fighting each other.

The prototype of the "Ice Breaking Operation" this time is a major case in which Guangdong Province assembled more than 3,000 police forces, and jointly attacked by land, sea and air, and seized nearly 3 tons of "flour"!

Zhou Yutang couldn't rest after all, and wrote the script outline overnight and formed a screenwriter team.

At the same time, he also started to work on the post-editing of "Joker".

Tian Zhuangzhuang took the lead, and a group of professors and teachers from the academy, including Wang Jinsong, Xu Haofeng, and Meng Haojun, came to join in the fun.

"It's a pity for Venice last year."

"La La Land" has a good chance of winning the Golden Globe Award."

"Which film festival will "Joker" be put in?"

Zhou Yutang is the face of the Film Academy, and now his film has naturally attracted the attention of many academies.

This is not an honor for Zhou Yutang alone.

The background and connections accumulated by the entire Film Academy can all be used by him.

In fact, Ren Zhonglun sent tea in the snow a few days ago, not specifically for Cricket Pu Kang.

In addition to maintaining the relationship, they may also be thinking of inviting Zhou Yutang to attend the Shanghai Film Festival.

With his painstaking efforts, he finally got through to the film festival, which was exactly what he needed to have a prominent figure.

"Let's wait until the film is finished to watch."

Zhou Yutang is not in a hurry to make decisions.

He more agrees with Tian Zhuangzhuang’s idea, which still focuses on the three major European companies.

The Berlin Film Festival will definitely be late, and the shortlist of films for the main competition will be announced soon.

The high probability is that you will choose between Cannes and Venice.

…

New Year's Day has just passed, and the single-day box office of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2" dropped to 156 million.

After all, they all have to go to work, but the box office has already passed the 800 million threshold.

At this time, the single-day box office of "The Great Wall" was declining along with its reputation.

Although it returned to glory during the New Year's Day holiday, it grossed 50 million for two consecutive days, and the total box office also exceeded 1 billion.

But after entering the working day, it was quickly knocked back to its original shape, and it had dropped to more than 10 million.

It's not even as strong as "Railway Tiger".

Of course, it’s also possible that emotional marketing plays a role.

The somewhat lonely interview with Jackie Chan was a hot search topic all over the internet.

“I’m already old, and I can’t do many of the moves I used to do.

I don’t know how much longer I can fight in the future, but as long as there are viewers willing to watch, I will definitely fight until the end..."

King Kaikai and Huang Zitao are also quite popular, and they followed the crew's hard-working road show.

The box office grossed more than RMB 70 million for two consecutive days, bombing the Christmas season, and has already come from behind to complete the counterattack against "The Ferryman".

This time Alibaba bet on Zhang Jiajia and suffered a huge loss. The box office dropped by tens of millions in a single day.

I originally thought that the Chinese Directors’ Peak Competition during the Lunar New Year period would be a battlefield for several veteran directors.

No one expected that it was Governor Zhou who set up the stage to send his beloved general Guo Fan to the throne.

Killed through the Lunar New Year stalls as a dark horse.

As the starring role, Dilraba truly feels the huge benefits that the entire Ghost Blowing Lantern series has brought to her.

All marketing releases are false.

Works are the greatest source of confidence for a star.

Only blockbuster film and television works can prove that they are recognized by the market.

This is specifically reflected in the new business and endorsements provided by the starring artists.

Female celebrities are almost envious of Ma.

Reba is really lucky. She can live a lifetime just by relying on the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" series of movies.

The industry is no longer unfamiliar with Governor Zhou's method of flattering people.

Nazareth was the hit of the Thieves series and immediately became a top star. The same is true for Dilraba, who has completely secured her position as a top star in domestic entertainment.

Liu Huohua, who was about to pass through the center of the earth, and Chen Minghao, who was basically unidentified, are now both commercial actors and receiving film offers.

After New Year's Day, Zhou Yutang attended the premiere of "The Lover".

The bosses of Xinli, Ruyi and Wanda are all here. The scene was quite lively.

Ke Liming smiled warmly and sent congratulations: "Congratulations, Mr. Zhou, for the box office success."

A low-budget comedy movie like "The Lover" is positioned to steal and pick up the slack.

Moreover, the two movies are one week apart, so they will basically not pose much of a threat to a giant like "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2".

This is a smart man who is well versed in the rules of the game. Zhou Yutang and Kelimy had a great time cooperating in "The Meg". They said a few scenes,

"Well, I also wish you a great success at the box office."

"Hello, Mr. Zhou."

Xiao Yang, who had worked with him in "Tang Detective", also came up to greet him, and Zhou Yutang smiled and nodded.

Xiao Yang's acting skills are indeed good for the Mesozoic era.

However, his eyes stayed on the woman in a red dress next to him for five seconds longer.

The biggest highlight of this movie is probably this woman in a red dress.

The clip of Clara shown in the trailer dancing to music in the underground parking lot in front of a one-way mirror is really indescribably charming and sexy...
