Entertainment: I really want to make progress

#846 - The clean and tidy Governor Zhou, a historical war blockbuster

After a few days of fermentation, Chen Sicheng's scandal spread like wildfire.

Seventy-two wars were ignited on the Internet.

Netizens have been attacking and criticizing Chen Sicheng in various ways.

Chen Sicheng: Zhou Yutang is worse than me! Why don't you check him out?

Of course Director Chen didn't dare to say a word.

Some things, if not weighed, would weigh no more than four ounces, but if weighed, they would weigh more than four thousand pounds.

Governor Zhou is not married.

It's okay for people to occasionally make fun of his romantic affairs behind his back.

But if the matter really comes to the table, there is no need for Jiangdong Pizza Hut to take action.

The entire group with interests related to Jiangdong can directly deal with these negative voices.

The entertainment industry is so realistic.

Director Chen did not have such a strong background, and he married a beautiful female star who was currently popular, so he was naturally the target of public criticism.

He was not satisfied with this and was caught seeking pleasure from other women more than once or twice.

Such a scumbag should be punished by everyone.

This version of Chen Sicheng is known as a talented person in the entertainment industry. He has achieved great success in both the Northern Ireland drama and film versions, and with the support of Wanda, he is also doing very well.

He was even once regarded as a "bankrupt version" of the Grand Commander of Jiangdong.

Even though this incident happened, his career as a director has not been affected too much.

After all, I’m mainly doing behind-the-scenes work now.

As long as the quality of the work is good enough, the audience will still be willing to watch it.

Looking at Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Xiao Gangpao, Gu Changwei, and Wang Anquan

Which big director in the circle doesn’t have some romantic past?

Director Chen simply played dead, and when the heat died down a little, the studio issued a bland clarification announcement to the public.

Anyway, I have explained it, believe it or not.

On the contrary, Yaya herself remained silent in front of the media and did not make many comments.

Most passers-by also sympathized with this gentle and kind wife.

Her fans were even more indignant, feeling that the sky was falling and the earth was collapsing, and they spoke out for her in various ways.

It is common in the entertainment industry for stars to be swayed by the will of their fans.

As a result, Yaya’s work and life have been greatly negatively affected.

When she was traveling at the airport recently, paparazzi photographed her taking off her wedding ring.

Everyone inside and outside the circle was watching the fun.

Da Mimi is currently making final preparations to join the crew of "Wushuang", and her phone is almost smoking.

I made a video call to Zhou Yutang to chat about gossip. The topic turned to scumbag men. Da Mimi didn't forget to feel sorry for herself: "Are all the good men in this world dead?"

"Why not? It's just that women don't like it."

"Why do you say that?"

"Today's women want men to have a career, provide emotional value, and look good."

"What does Kayan mean?"

A question mark slowly emerged in Da Mi Mi's mind: "Cayenne?"

"The beauty part, don't girls all value looks and decide whether to continue the relationship based on appearance?"

“Actually, you don’t have to be too handsome.”

Da Mimi nodded in realization, "Being too handsome makes people feel insecure. Normally, it's better to be clean like you."

It’s very interesting to chat with Zhou Yutang.

Apart from sending out large-scale benefits for fun, she has heard many interesting new words.

I secretly took note of it and planned to show it off in a variety show next time.

Sister Mi added very seriously: "You can be poor, but at least you have to be ambitious."

"Being ambitious means having financial strength in the future, right?"

Zhou Yutang took a glance.

Sister Mi is really rich and generous.

“.”

Da Mimi opened her mouth, but was speechless.

Aquaman, you really understand what women are thinking.

She couldn't live with a mediocre man no matter how hard she tried.

Da Mimi changed the subject: "Zhang Xuan is so mean. I heard from Yaya that they had a pretty good relationship, but he could do such a thing."

As I was talking, I blushed and felt inexplicably guilty.

Fortunately, Zhou Yutang didn't seem to hear it, and instead asked curiously: "Sister Mi, do you chat with Yaya often?"

"Yeah, we are besties."

"When did she become your best friend?"

Zhou Yutang's expression twitched slightly.

"We met at an event before the New Year, and we got along quite well."

Da Mimi said: "She asked me out for dinner a few days ago, and she cried her eyes out."

“.”

Zhou Yutang was completely convinced.

Da Mimi seems to have a strange passive BUFF.

Whenever there are popular female stars, you can always see them in the same frame like wild sisters

"Boss, your place is so big."

"Where's the big one?"

"This isn't big. This lawn must be several acres."

Chen Duling paced on the lawn, holding the dog's leash, looking around and muttering, "Won't I be exhausted after just one stroll?"

I couldn't help but feel annoyed in my heart: these evil capitalists really know how to enjoy themselves.

This villa for cultivating immortals is right next to Tianxian’s house.

Liu Yifei had an announcement to make and was out of town, and Aunt Liu was not at home.

I specifically asked Zhou Yutang to take care of the Paw Patrol and Meow Meow Team at home.

Looking around, Zhou Yutang shook his head slightly, thinking that the place was still too small.

I was thinking about getting another piece of land and building a secret family villa estate.

If I have more children in the future.

Everyone has a villa and lives in adjacent houses.

In this way, young children can keep each other company and enhance their relationship.

He can also manage his time better.

The more I thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, so I immediately called Mr. Liu from Wanda.

Chen Duling was walking the dog and stroking the Schnauzer named Laifu when Li Shuang called her.

"Yu Tang, something has happened at the Su Provincial Television Station."

"What's wrong, boss?"

Chen Duling, who had a ponytail, heard the voice and looked up and asked Zhou Yutang.

There was a gentle breeze, ruffling a strand of hair on the side of her face, making her pure beauty seem a little shattered.

"nothing."

Zhou Yutang had a faint smile on his face.

I changed my hand to answer the phone.

But the corner of his eye twitched slightly.

There was a lot of information in this phone call.

Not long ago, Zhou Ningfeng mentioned to him that there would be a reshuffle within the Jiangsu Provincial TV station.

Including Zhang Yan from the former purchasing department, deputy director Wang Hong and a group of people, all of them will be liquidated.

Generally speaking, a company's purchasing department is often the place with the most money.

Television stations are no exception.

Television stations that control broadcasting channels occupy a very high ecological niche in the entertainment industry.

Many film and television companies in the industry have to ask TV stations for help if they want to sell their dramas.

Therefore, there is a lot of room for operation in several major areas such as TV drama purchase and sales, project construction, and advertising.

Some gentlemen who are more extreme will even explicitly instruct the producers to buy ratings from designated shell companies.

This has formed a gray industrial chain.

However, Jiangdong Entertainment, the face of Chinese drama, obviously doesn't need to do these little tricks.

The dramas produced are guaranteed to be high quality, and are expected to be hits, or even have the potential to become a phenomenal success.

Not to mention that there is Governor Zhou who suppresses the destiny.

In the cooperative relationship with the TV station, Jiangdong undoubtedly took the absolute initiative.

"Sister Shuang, it has little to do with us."

Zhou Yutang gently combed the hair of the chubby black cat in his arms.

Dongdong meowed comfortably.

Squinting his eyes, he seemed to be enjoying this moment of tranquility.

In late May, the annual ceremony of the China Film Directors Association was held in Beijing.

Many top names in the film and television industry gathered together.

As an important industry award that receives much attention from the industry every year, it attracts a lot of attention.

The current person in charge of the Directors Association is Li Shaohong, who is Da Mimi’s mentor and also an old classmate with whom Tian Zhuangzhuang has a special relationship.

Even though Lao Tian refused to admit it even if he was beaten to death.

But if their relationship was just average, how could we invite him to Jiangdong as a lobbyist and invite Governor Zhou to attend?

Except for Governor Zhou, who is an executive member in name only but does no work.

Teacher Fan’s good friend Li Yu, as well as Yin Li, Wang Hongwei, Xu Guangtou and others are also members of the Executive Committee of the Directors Association.

Teacher Fan is in Cannes. He just signed autographs for a group of foreign friends and became a hot topic in China.

Won another award here.

It was her good friend Li Yu who came on stage and received the association's annual actress award from Li Shaohong.

The Actor of the Year award went to Zhang Yi for his role in The Dark Knight.

At this time, Zhang Yi had just taken leave from the crew of "Operation Red Sea".

"Operation Red Sea" has now completed its overseas filming and is now continuing filming in China.

While filming this military drama, Zhang Yi got a lot darker, but he looked even more muscular.

He has a tough temperament that was honed in the military.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

Taking the trophy from Zhou Yutang, Zhang Yi grinned.

When he doesn't smile, he looks like a tough guy.

When he smiles, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes naturally pile up, giving people a sense of being both shy and stubborn.

"Well deserved, congratulations."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Zhou Yutang patted his shoulder and didn't say much.

As for the scene in "The Murderer" where they eat boiling hot mutton noodles, it can be called a textbook performance.

This year, Zhang Yi also reached the peak of his acting career.

The trophy from the Directors Association is just the beginning. The upcoming Magnolia Award also sees him nominated for Best Actor.

It was the TV series "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" broadcasted by Jiangsu Provincial TV Station after the New Year, which saw a surge in both ratings and word of mouth.

The Best Film award was again given to "I Am Not Madame Bovary".

After all, he won a grand prize at a Class A film festival abroad last year, and he is also the vice president of the Directors Association, so he has some status.

Shanghai Tomato TV broadcast the entire ceremony live, and director Li Yong was personally on site, also an acquaintance.

The awards were being presented on the stage, and Zhou Yutang sat downstairs and chatted with Cao Baoping, whom he hadn't seen for a while.

You'll know after you hear him talk about it.

Recently, Xu Haofeng's self-written and directed movie "Hidden Blade" was announced to be released in the summer vacation, but suddenly a conflict occurred with the producer.

Speaking of Xu Haofeng, he is also a number one oddity in the circle.

The courses offered at Beijing Film Academy are very popular among students, and the classrooms are always packed.

His previous movies have always been critically acclaimed but not commercially successful.

It was not until the year before last that he collaborated with Jiang Dong on "Master". After unremitting publicity and marketing, the box office exceeded 200 million, which was considered a small proof of himself.

Soon after, he was approached by the capital giants in the circle.

Film projects including "The Arrow Master Liu Baiyuan", "The Hidden Blade" and "The Treasure Land at the Doorstep" have all been put on the agenda.

The big stage of domestic entertainment, come if you have money.

The value of the two words "Poly" is not only well-known, but also earth-shattering.

In terms of strength, it is definitely a giant in the country, but it has always been low-key.

However, at the beginning of the year, it announced that it would accelerate the layout of the entertainment industry, which caused a stir in the film and television industry.

Xu Haofeng's "Hidden Blade" is on the list of films invested by Poly this year.

"What's going on?"

Zhou Yutang asked Cao Baoping.

"Poly's going to re-edit it."

They were all teachers at the academy and had their own private connections. Cao Baoping knew the inside story and said calmly, "Old Xu won't let go."

"Director Xu's films have rather heavy themes, and are not the kind where you tear Japanese soldiers apart for fun.

Judging from the current shooting situation, it is still in line with the mainstream aesthetics of the public, but there are many deep thinking contents in it, which need to be chosen. We hope that this film can have a greater breakthrough and play in commercial performance."

The next day, Zhou Yutang saw an interview with Mr. Liu of Poly Film on the news.

The way things play in the circle now is still determined by capital.

But Xu Haofeng is also a tough nut to crack.

He said that he would rather give up his credit as a director than have his work altered beyond recognition.

At the end of the month, Cannes finally came to an end.

Ms. Fan performed normally, wearing a light blue shawl-length dress from the ES Spring/Summer Haute Couture collection.

Paired with De Beers diamond jewelry and long wavy hair, she made a stunning appearance on the red carpet of the closing ceremony, stealing countless films and looking like a true queen.

Including the opening ceremony, the jury media meeting and other large and small events during the Cannes Film Festival.

Teacher Fan changed into thirteen haute couture dresses in total, stunning a group of foreigners and even reported on by overseas media.

Chinese women are very competitive, but this year's Chinese-language films are not very good.

Only "Passing by the Future" directed by Li Ruijun was shortlisted for the "Un Certain Regard" unit.

Others include Boss Jiang's "Monster Hunt 2", Xiying's "Asura" with an investment of up to 100 million US dollars, and the very popular Director Chen, who also went to do pre-promotion for his "Legend of the Demon Cat".

One person worth mentioning is Nicole Kidman, who starred in two competition films, "The Beguiled" and "The Killing of a Sacred Deer", both of which won awards.

Sofia Coppola won the Best Director award, while The Killing of a Sacred Deer won the Best Screenplay award.

In the domestic film market, the extension key for "Chasing the Dragon" has been issued, and the total box office is still growing slowly.

After breaking through 1.2 billion, the box office growth of "Dangal" has finally slowed down.

This also made a number of film and television companies breathe a sigh of relief, especially Bona's Fatty Yu.

Ever since Jiangdong Entertainment released information about three movies scheduled for summer release.

The entire film and television industry is like a calm lake with a huge rock thrown into it, and the water waves are constantly shaking.

Various film and television companies have begun to urgently adjust their screening strategies.

Those that should be postponed should be postponed, and those that should be advanced should be advanced.

Fatty Yu from Bona was also one of the victims.

This summer, Fatty Yu teamed up with Hong Kong director Gordon Chan, Hong Kong big brother Fatty Hung, and mainland action star Vincent Zhao to make the movie "God of War".

"This is a historical war film. The reason why we chose this period is because General Qi is a household name and there is a lot we can explore. With the current box office depth of Chinese-language films, I think it will take at least 1 billion yuan at the box office, with no upper limit."

Originally, during the Beijing International Film Festival, Fatty Yu had already fired his first shot, ambitiously aiming for the summer season.

As a result, misfortune struck, and Jiang Dongjia officially announced three blockbuster films to target the summer season.

If you can't afford to provoke someone, you can afford to avoid him.

After an emergency internal meeting at Bona, the schedule was brought forward.

It was scheduled during the Dragon Boat Festival between the May Day holiday and the summer vacation.

Although this period is not very popular, it is also a helpless move.

Wen Muye, one of the three great generals of Jiangdong, teamed up with Governor Zhou's favorite sister. Can you afford to offend this luxurious lineup?

Let’s watch "Wolf Warrior 2". The trailer alone is enough to make you excited.

"The Meg" has anchored the global film market, it's magnificent, and it's going to hit you with your head?

"Captain Depp is back as the king. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales has grossed 133 million yuan on its first day since its release in China, recreating the Caribbean legend!"

"On its first day of release, Going Out did not perform well at the box office, earning only 17.8 million yuan. Bona Film Group failed in the Dragon Boat Festival!"

Han Sanping attended the premiere of Going Out to War, and when he came back he started to complain to Zhou Yutang: "What on earth was Yu Dong thinking? Using Gordon Chan to make a historical film is a waste of such a good subject!"

In fact, Yu Pangzi's market sensitivity has always been online.

It's just that the main theme of the commercial blockbuster was intercepted by Zhou Yutang.

As a result, Bona has always lacked significant projects to support its development, and its influence has been greatly weakened.

This time, we chose a historical war film, also wanting to take the opportunity to promote national sentiments.

I do not wish to be a marquis, but I wish for a peaceful sea.

General Qi Jiguang led the Qi Family Army to fight against Japanese pirates on the southeast coast for more than ten years. What kind of hero was he?

According to Fatty Yu, if you want to play, play big.

The goal is to make a Chinese version of “Myeongryang”.

It’s a pity that Chen Jiashang’s ability does not match his ambition.

If the story is told poorly, the audience will naturally not buy it.

"These directors in Hong Kong."

Zhou Yutang also laughed softly and said, "I can't handle this kind of movie with historical and cultural background."

“.”

Han Sanping suddenly thought of an old friend and felt uncomfortable. He couldn't help cursing.

Back then, he placed a heavy bet on Wu Baige, but the two "Red Cliff" films ended up being complete failures in terms of both word-of-mouth and box office.

Even with all the efforts of the Chinese film industry, they were unable to make it work. Movies based on the Three Kingdoms never recovered from this slump, and no one was willing to invest in them anymore.

It is no exaggeration to say that there has been a gap in the Three Kingdoms series of films in the Chinese film industry, and Wu Baige has made an indispensable contribution to this.

When Han Sanping was in power, he would still be more considerate of others.

Now that he has retired, the menopausal eagle is at full fire, full of resentment and all kinds of crickets.

"Boss Han, calm down."

Seeing this, Zhou Yutang poured Han Sanping a cup of jasmine tea.

Han Sanping took the teacup and took a sip: "How do you say this year's white magnolia?"

"Go there early, there are some things to deal with at the game company."

******

The box office of "God of War" on the first day was only tens of millions, which basically buried Yu Pangzi's ambition.

With the right time, right place and right people, if Gordon Chan had just shown a little more fighting spirit, the entire Dragon Boat Festival box office would not have been completely destroyed by Captain Jack's Black Pearl.

As the saying goes, failure in love may lead to success in career.

Captain Depp's "Pirates of the Caribbean 5" received a lukewarm response abroad, with North American box office taking in only 62.18 million U.S. dollars in its first weekend, the second worst opening in the series.

In regions such as Italy and Australia, the overall box office performance was lower than expected, and the Rotten Tomatoes rating was as low as 32%.

However, it unexpectedly achieved unexpected success in China.

In just three days of release, the film grossed 465 million yuan.

Disney had already prepared itself for the possibility of not being able to recoup its $230 million production costs.

I never expected that an unexpected effort would lead to such a great success.

The box office in the Chinese market was a huge success, so Disney was naturally overjoyed and quickly sent the main creative crew to China to promote the film.

Captain Depp ate dumplings happily.

Ma Sheng on the other side of the river was also busy, taking the captain's ex-wife on various romantic dates
