China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 1008 The Layout of a Real-World Crime Universe: The First Year of Talent Shows in the Chinese Entertainment Industry
The entire real-world crime universe is a unified whole.

Occasional collaborations can bring a smile to the audience's face and add a touch of fun.

This time, the project that Six Doors handed over to Jiangdong also involved CCTV, and it will be broadcast on CCTV.

Jiangdong bought the copyright to the original novel "Trident" and adapted it into the novel of the same name published by Lu Zheng, a writer from the Six Doors.

The content will definitely follow the original work, mainly telling the story of three once-renowned veteran police officers who, in the face of new types of crime, work together to innovate investigative methods and ultimately crack down on a financial crime syndicate.

It emphasizes positive energy.

However, this story introduces another plot hole: the final clue to this financial crime syndicate points to Mianbei.
On the other hand, Lao Suan's "The Silent Truth" has already started filming.

Xin Shuang's drama "Bad Kids" had some issues with the title review and was changed to "The Hidden Corner". The casting process is now in its final stages.

Zhou Yutang withstood the pressure; as for the descendants of Celestial Dragons trying to get into the crew through back channels, there was no way they could get in.

This is a major project for Bilibili's Mist Theater. In addition, Bilibili also has a self-produced youth drama in preparation.

Jiang Xuerou is methodical and organized in her work, and the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series of film and television dramas, which she is collaborating with Tencent, has already been launched.

Post-production on "Snow in the Sky" was completed in April, and then pre-release promotion began to secure its place in the summer box office.

The white-haired prince in the trailer alone, so handsome that he makes countless young women and housewives swoon, has already shaken the industry and beyond.

No, if the Grand Commander of Jiangdong personally gets involved, how can the summer TV drama wars even begin?
Film and television companies in the industry are like tigers and wolves.

Several satellite TV stations got wind of the news and subsequently adjusted their pre-arranged schedules, truly trying to avoid it at all costs.

Given Zhou Dudu's style of doing things, the series will air during the summer vacation and he will definitely not keep the audience in suspense. At most, the peak period will not exceed two months.

If we can't afford to offend you, Grand Commander of Jiangdong, then can't we at least avoid you?

"Crack!"

Guo Fan, the "King of Takeovers," intently checked the camera footage behind the monitor.

After speaking with the heads of several teams, he picked up the walkie-talkie and announced: "I hereby announce that filming for 'Detective Chinatown 2' has officially wrapped!"

"Director Guo is awesome!"

"Wuhu! Filming is finally wrapped up."

Adrian Brody, still wearing a white lab coat, is a man.

However, caught up in the atmosphere, he also clapped and uttered two very pure words: "newbee!"

"Do you know how to do this?"

Everyone burst into laughter, filling the air on set with a joyful atmosphere.

"A little bit."

Adrian Brody made a gesture that infuriated the Koreans, and said modestly.

He is a very professional actor because of the roles he plays in movies, which demonstrate his deep understanding of Eastern culture.

So before joining the crew, I hired a teacher to teach me Chinese and Japanese, but I really don't know much Chinese, only a few phrases.

"Thanks to everyone for your hard work during this time."

Having taken on several large projects, Guo Fan was extremely familiar with the entire film shooting process. He stood up, cleared his throat, and picked up a megaphone to say:
"After the press conference, a wrap party was arranged for the evening, and everyone drank until they were drunk!"

"Wuhu, Director Guo is awesome!"

The film crew had been filming behind closed doors, and at the press conference after filming wrapped, reporters were so eager to get to Guo Fan that they practically shoved microphones into his mouth.
"Director Guo, when will 'Detective Chinatown 2' be released?"

"I just talked to Mr. Zhou about this; the filming took a little longer than expected."

Guo Fan said with a smile, "I'll try to meet everyone by the end of the year."

Jiangdong Entertainment originally positioned the Detective Chinatown series as a dish prepared for the Spring Festival season.

"Director Guo, when will the final installment of the 'Ghost Blows Out the Light' film series begin production?"

"The visual effects team is already working on a plan, but the specific timing still needs to be determined, because the company has several important projects running at the same time."

Guo Fan scratched his head.

To maintain secrecy, Adrien Brody had to keep his presence as low as possible.

He didn't attend the press conference at all, but Lu Han and Wang Baoqiang, who were the lead actors, were also the focus of media attention.

"Baoqiang, may I ask what your reasoning was for going to the event to accept the Golden Broom Award?"

The media, deliberately stirring up trouble, asked some rather pointed questions, drawing the attention of Guo Fan, Lu Han, and the others.

This year's Golden Broom Awards saw "Buddies in India" neck and neck with "Eternal Love" and "Dream Chaser," all of them major winners.

Yang Ying won the Best Actress award, but was humiliated by the bees from Da Mi Mi's family.

Needless to say, Teacher Bi is undoubtedly the best.

Wang Baoqiang also won the Golden Broom Award for Most Disappointing Director. Originally, everyone was just watching for fun and making some noise.

The other nominees ignored him completely, and no one went to the event to embarrass themselves.

Only Wang Baoqiang actually took leave from the film crew to go and accept the award, which is quite a strange story.

"I know the Golden Broom Award is not a prestigious award, but it can spur me to improve. I want to be a good director, and I have learned a lot from Director Zhou and Director Guo for this purpose."

President Zhou said something very true: if you don't do well, you're wrong, and you have to accept the consequences.

I should accept everyone's criticism.

But my greatest hope is that through continuous effort and learning in the future, I can become a qualified director and bring better works to everyone.”

Wang Baoqiang responded sincerely as always, leaving everyone bewildered. Lu Han, with his high EQ, picked up the conversation:
"We've gone a bit off-topic. Let's ask Detective Tang more questions instead."

"Lu Han, with 'Produce 101' currently airing and all the fuss, have you been watching it?"

"Of course, I watch every episode."

"Oh, so which player are you most interested in?"

"Several contestants are indeed very talented, such as Sakura, and Yu Shuxin is also very energetic, haha."

Since the success of "Idol Producer" last year, Tencent and Jiangdong Group's "Produce 101" quickly followed suit.

The Chinese entertainment industry has entered its first year of talent shows.

It vaguely resembles the nationwide SMS voting frenzy of over a decade ago, with shows like Super Boy, Super Girl, and My Hero.

The Sakura that Lu Han mentioned is Miyawaki Sakura, his younger sister from Japan. She was originally a core member of HKT48, a girl group belonging to the AKB48 family, and also a part-time member of AKB48.

Strictly speaking, he's not an amateur.

Compared to other contestants, Sakura already has a certain level of popularity and recognition in the Japanese idol scene.

As for why she suddenly decided to participate in "Produce 101," it was naturally due to a deal between her agency AKS and the Japanese branch of Jiangdong Entertainment, as well as her own strong desire.

AKS hopes to expand Sakura's international influence through international talent shows, and she herself also wants to improve.

The Grand Commander had previously stated that this was a large-scale talent show based in Asia.

We need a broad vision and a diverse range of ideas.

How could a genius like him who can read the boss's mind not know how to arrange things?

Japanese girls are a good option.

Sweet and well-behaved, full of energy.

Back then, wasn't the Grand Commander rumored to be dating Masami Nagasawa?

It's hard to say he has any special feelings for Japanese girls!

Now that the scope has been opened up, let's expand and strengthen it. We also have Tyrande and a pretty girl from the Vietnamese server participating, aiming for an all-Asian lineup. Since the show premiered in April, its popularity has continued to grow.

By June, the competition had entered its second half, and the second phase of the popularity rankings had been released. Wu Xuanyi, Yamy, Xiaoyinghua, Hu Lianxin, Sun Yining, and others were all very popular.

Thirty-six trainees advanced, while a number of contestants were eliminated.

The production team made a documentary-like segment about the girls' debut, showing them shedding tears and leaving in despair, causing countless viewers to drop their pearls in sympathy.
"The film 'Detective Chinatown 2,' directed by Guo Fan and starring Lu Han and Wang Baoqiang, with special appearances by Joaquin Phoenix, Ethan Hawke, Adrien Brody, Masami Nagasawa, Takuya Kimura, Yang Chaoyue, and others, has wrapped up filming today."

"It is understood that the film has entered post-production and is expected to be released during the Spring Festival!"

"."

As expected of the Jiangdong family's most prestigious brand, news about the film's completion quickly made headlines on social media's film and television front page.

Due to cost considerations, this Detective Chinatown film was shot on location abroad combined with studio shooting in China.

After filming in North America was completed, Guo Fan led the team to Japan to shoot a bonus scene.

Little Koi made a cameo appearance as the hacker Kiko, who ranks fifth on the Crimaster Detective World Ranking and is considered an important member of the Detective Chinatown main cast.

However, netizens weren't paying much attention to her; they were all stunned by the star-studded guest cast.

"Holy crap, the newly crowned Oscar-winning actor, Hollywood's top star Phoenix!"

"Does the Grand Commander have that much influence?"

"With such a high profile, he must be an important character, and I feel like he's the main villain."

"Ethan Hawke and Masami Nagasawa are both old friends of Governor Zhou, so why is Takuya Kimura involved?"

Takuya Kimura, the Japanese heartthrob who once held his own against the "Great Commander of Jiangdong" in numerous Asian media's male god polls, also made an appearance in the bonus scene.

Of course, Masami Nagasawa is also included.

In the second part, the doctor boss leaves behind a hook that allows his deceased wife to come back to life.

The blame then fell on Masami Nagasawa. The main characters of Detective Chinatown used hacking technology to reconstruct the photo, only to find that she was not exactly the same, but rather nine-tenths similar. This undoubtedly added a touch of eeriness and suspense to the ending of the movie, before abruptly ending.

When will filming begin for the third installment?

Even over the phone, Zhou Yutang could feel Masami Nagasawa's burning longing, and said frankly, "Depending on the release of the second film, the script may need to be adjusted."

"Hey, I've received the script. Do I need to make any adjustments?"

Masami Nagasawa asked curiously.

"That's natural."

Zhou Yutang spoke leisurely and calmly.

The market is not static.

Why do many great directors fail to achieve high box office returns?
It's not that they lack ability, but rather that they can't control their urge to express themselves and want to cram all the emotions they want to convey onto the audience.

Little did they know that audience tastes are also changing, and once they go against market trends, they will suffer a crushing defeat.

Zhou Yutang was well aware of this, so many plot details in the film and television projects he managed were not fixed and were constantly adjusted in subtle ways according to market trends.

The entire Detective Chinatown series is a golden goose, and the scriptwriting team has tentatively planned the plot of Detective Chinatown 3 to revolve around Masami Nagasawa, although changes and reversals are not ruled out.

"Find the dead inside, the first of the kingdoms!"

Masami Nagasawa nodded in realization, her voice soft and gentle: "Zhou-san, when can I see you?"

"Anytime is fine. I'll arrange a private plane to pick you up and bring you to Beijing."

"Wouldn't this be too troublesome?" Masami Nagasawa's eyes lit up, but she hesitated.

"Because it's Yami, never say anything like 'trouble'."

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhou Yutang added tender words and quickly made the necessary arrangements.

This smooth combo completely depleted the Neon Goddess's health bar.

"I'm really looking forward to meeting Zhou Sang."

Masami Nagasawa was overjoyed, her eyes sparkling, and she flashed her signature bright smile.

most of the time,
What women want is a man's attitude.

They can sense it from many details, and then constantly convince themselves in their hearts.

For Zhou Yutang, cultivating immortality and composing poetry were basic skills.

All the sisters should be treated equally, and the neon concubines in the fishpond should also be favored.

Fearing that too much affection would burden the beauty, even a strong-willed governor like Zhou could only manage his time to the extreme.
Like many trainees from "Produce 101", Yu Shuxin lived in an apartment arranged by the program team.

Many athletes showed considerable discomfort.

Most trainees are teenage girls who have their lives taken care of by their parents at home. They lack life experience, so living alone in an unfamiliar environment will definitely make them uncomfortable.

However, this is perfect for Yu Shuxin, who is naturally gifted.

She was sent abroad to study during middle school and lived independently, developing exceptional survival skills.

Now, participating in "Produce 101," in terms of looks, Yu Shuxin is at most a cute little beauty, and she is definitely not as good-looking as top beauties like Sun Yining and Hu Lianxin.

But everyone has their own preferences.

Standing on this grand stage, she has gained the love of many fans.

Moreover, he was highly praised for taking care of his teammates in daily life, and his ranking in several polls was among the top.

The top 22 ranking battle is coming up soon, and the finals are at the end of the month. The schedule is full of singing and dancing training. If you want to debut, you always have to put in sweat and effort.

Yu Shuxin returned to her accommodation with her teammates. The girls immediately collapsed on the sofa, scrolling through their phones, not wanting to move at all.

Only when Sakura starts playing PUBG does she become incredibly energetic.

"I heard that Liu Tianxian will be at the next ranked match!"

"I still prefer Governor Zhou. The teacher said he'll be participating in the finals!"

"Really?"

"Teacher Pei has a high reputation score, so he must be right."

"."

Someone suddenly said that, and all the girls in the room were drawn to it.

Miyawaki Sakura even stopped playing her favorite game, her beautiful eyes widening and shining: "Kuniichi, that's wonderful!!"

"Will he be performing then?"

Yu Shuxin suddenly had a whimsical idea, and Sun Yining chuckled: "What are you thinking? With the Grand Commander's current wealth, why would he want to perform on stage? You're overthinking it."

The former Grand Commander of Jiangdong often attended various concerts as a guest, singing and dancing with great enthusiasm.

Such scenes became increasingly rare afterward, and now that he has become the richest man in China, he has become even more low-key.

Sun Yining learned a lot of information through Chen Duling, but she wouldn't tell anyone else.

After all, you can't see into someone's heart, so we can't really say we're that close.
We're not in the finals yet, so everyone's a competitor.

Can you believe that he has created more than a dozen private groups?
She only tells many things to Chen Duling, who is also doing her best to support her best friend: "Go Ningbao! The finals are in Shanghai, and the boss should be there."

"Really?"

"Ah."

Chen Duling tilted her head and thought for a moment, then swallowed the rest of her sentence.

If Da Meiyuan's delivery goes smoothly
