China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 820: Power and Wealth, Love Becomes

"Dear fans, welcome to the grand premiere of La La Land"

The host Zhou Tao on the stage was introducing the main creative crew of "La La Land".

After director Damien and starring Ryan Gosling, when Anne Hathaway came out, the applause and cheers reached a climax.

"Annie is so popular."

Shu Chang in the audience was talking to Liu Yifei next to him, but the latter kept glancing at Zhou Yutang's actions on the other side out of the corner of her eye.

He just sat there with his legs crossed, lowering his head and sending messages, looking relaxed.

Liu Yifei has some friendship with Anne Hathaway, and this time she came to support her friend.

Shu Chang was drafted into the army, and he pulled his best friend to cover her mouth and whisper:

"I saw her in Love and Other Drugs before. She was in great shape then. Now she seems to have aged a lot."

"My Chinese fans, I love Anne Hathaway, happy New Year."

The big-mouthed beauty had her usual bright smile on her face and added, "Happy Chinese New Year!"

The Chinese blessing was not very standard, but it aroused warm cheers from the audience.

Anne Hathaway can be regarded as America's sweetheart.

Especially in "Batman", Catwoman in uniform is at the peak of her beauty, and she has many fans in China.

"Welcome everyone to come here and communicate face to face with the fans in China."

Zhou Tao was obviously well prepared and asked in fluent English, "As a director, how do you feel about being able to create such a movie?"

"Wow, this is absolutely incredible."

Director Damien smiled and said: "When we first started working on this project, Zhou once said that this movie would be a unique surprise for the audience. Now it seems that this is true. We have done it."

"He was sitting down there."

“Yeah, we were supposed to tell you about the creative process together.”

Damien spread his hands. "But he said something important happened. I saw the beautiful lady next to him."

The audience followed the camera and focused their eyes on Governor Zhou, who was stepping over Liu Yifei and talking directly to Shu Chang, and burst into laughter.

Everyone knows that Liu Yifei is his favorite.

"I want to thank Crystal."

Anne Hathaway took over the conversation at the right time: "I heard that I would come to China for the premiere, so I took time out to attend the event."

Liu Yifei greeted Annie with a smile.

By the way, he gave Zhou Yutang a push in a covert manner.

Zhou Yutang was as thick-skinned as a city wall. He was not moved at all and continued to do as he pleased.

Shu Chang's gossip was really explosive, saying that Master Zhou and Gao Shengyuan were going to break up.

As Miss Liu's best friend, Shu Chang knew a lot of gossip that others didn't know.

When Master Zhou and Gao Shengyuan first got together, Zhou Yutang was not very optimistic about them.

It's not even the seven-year itch yet, but changes have already occurred.

Shu Chang felt it was magical when he thought about it, and when he looked at Zhou Yutang again, his eyes were full of metaphysical colors.
"Boss Zhou, you really got it right."

"Do you know why?"

Zhou Yutang said calmly.

While attracting Miss Liu's attention, he also held her little hand.

Liu Yifei struggled a bit, but couldn't break free, so she just let him do what he wanted, mainly because she was very curious.

"The reason why men and women get together is very simple, either it's love at first sight or it's love that grows over time."

"So what's your reason for Sissi?"

"First of all, we ruled out love at first sight. When we first met, she was not yet an adult and was drinking AD calcium milk all day long."

"hiss!"

Zhou Yutang, whose foot was stepped on, coughed lightly and continued, "At the beginning, I could only see the other person's strengths and was moved to tears by love.

After being together for a long time, you have to face life, and all your shortcomings will appear in front of each other, and you have to consider the reality factor.

Every minute at the beginning is always wonderful, and everyone thinks the enthusiasm will never diminish.

Gao Shengyuan grew up in the American social system.

The way of thinking and living habits are all Western.

Miss Zhou was a native of Quzhou.

You eat pizza, I eat duck neck.

When the beautiful filter at the beginning is broken, there are huge differences in the living habits and rhythms of the two sides after all.

Of course, the most important thing is the huge gap in social status between the two.

Ms. Zhou is the winner of three major film awards in China and a top star in the domestic entertainment industry, while Gao Shengyuan is just a nobody in the entertainment industry with no background.

You're just a supporting role in Hollywood and want to make a living in China, but you can't even speak Mandarin properly. How can you survive?

If this goes on for a long time, even if he doesn't say it, he will feel resentment in his heart.

Admiration for the strong is engraved in women's genes.

A man must have one of the two, power and wealth, in order to be able to stand tall.

Zhou Yutang didn't say much to them about what happened later. He just chatted with them about gossip in the audience until they started watching the movie.

The friction between dreams and reality, the collision between love and ideals.
The story of Mia and Sebastian is told in a delicate and sincere narrative style.

Seeing the romantic scene of the two dancing under the starry sky, countless female audience members cheered.

Among them are Shu Chang and Xiao Liu.

Zhou Yutang withdrew his gaze from Liu Yifei's superior profile.

When the movie was over, listening to the warm applause from the audience, he also clapped gently, with a slight smile on the corners of his mouth.

“It’s a really touching movie.”

Zhou Tao is a very capable host and said with emotion: "We know that last month, La La Land broke the Golden Globe Awards history by winning seven out of seven nominations. It is really amazing. So far, it has won nearly a hundred awards, which is a really remarkable achievement."

“Yeah, the movie won a lot of awards.”

The audience gave a lot of feedback, and Anne Hathaway smiled even sweeter: "Our crew traveled around with this movie all the way. This was a very unique experience for us. Many audience friends liked it very much, and some even watched it five times without getting tired of it."

"Valentine's Day is coming soon. Boys can take their girlfriends to the cinema to watch La La Land. That would be a very romantic thing."

Commander Gao is also good at speaking and has made full preparations for this premiere in China.

He used a brush to write the word "love" in capital letters on the spot, and it looked quite realistic.

"Sister Zhou Tao, thank you for your hard work."

After the entire premiere ceremony was over, Zhou Yutang specially found Zhou Tao.

He has been a national-level host of the Spring Festival Gala for 16 consecutive years since 1996.

Coming in person to support him at his movie premiere was a real honor for him.

"Anyway, idle is idle."

Zhou Tao, who was wearing a professional suit, smiled and said, "Just treat it as getting familiar with professional skills."

"Sister Tao, why did you want to resign from the Central Bank?"

"I was too busy with work before. Changing the environment will allow me to spend more time with my daughter."

Zhou Tao smiled and said, "Boss Zhou, you can always come to me for any business in the future."

"Just call me Yu Tang. I will definitely do it if there's a chance."

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Zhou Tao, Zhou Yutang went to the hotel, which could be considered a small celebration party.

As the top candidate for this year's Oscars, La La Land has seen steady box office growth following its large-scale global release.

Moreover, its reputation has been on the rise, with a high score of 8.9 on the professional film review website IMDB and a score of 93 on the professional film critic website MTC.

Many professional film magazines and well-known media such as Time Magazine, Rolling Stone Magazine, and Entertainment Weekly have unanimously advocated and selected it as the best film of the year.

"Zhou, you talked to that beautiful lady for quite a long time."

Bob, who came over first, welcomed Zhou Yutang into the box with his signature winsome smile on his face.

The playboy tycoon has a reputation as a playboy, and the other main creators of the crew also smiled ambiguously.

"I won't be going to Shanghai tomorrow because of the trip." Zhou Yutang didn't bother to explain. "Just kidding."

Bob put his arm around Zhou Yutang's shoulders and said, "I know you are a principled person."

“I can verify it.”

Anne Hathaway took the initiative to give him a hug, hugging him left and right: "Zhou is definitely the most gentlemanly oriental man I have ever met. If I were not married, I would definitely pursue him."

"Wow, Annie, it's a shame you're married."

The rest of the crew followed suit, and old Bob laughed strangely: "He has no interest in other people's wives."

In addition to the premiere held in Beijing today, the crew will fly directly to Shanghai the next day to hold an offline movie-watching event.

Then I will fly directly from Shanghai to London, England to attend the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards ceremony.

The situation is favorable now, and the entire creative crew has reaped the benefits, and everyone is smiling.

Zhou Yutang didn't stay long because according to insider information, Liu Yifei's game was about to end.

After the premiere, Liu Yifei and Shu Chang had a small gathering with Yao Beina, a close friend who happened to be working in Beijing.

Eating and singing K, it’s so lively.

When Zhou Yutang arrived at the Pony Club, Liu Yifei was singing "Liangliang" with Shu Chang.

A clip from Eternal Love was still playing on the screen in the box.

The TV series is currently on air, and this ending song has also become very popular, and is on the must-sing list of countless KTVs.

Miss Liu was actually very playful in front of her friends, but when she saw Zhou Yutang arrive, she immediately regained her dignity and reserve.

I promised to stay calm, and I must stay cool.

"Boss Zhou, why are you here?"

A hint of surprise appeared on Shu Chang's face, and Yao Beina was also a little confused.

Looking left and right, what's going on?
"Isn't it disturbing you?"

"Don't bother me, since you're here, sit here."

Liu Yifei didn't say anything, and Shu Chang warmly invited Zhou Yutang to come in and sit down.

"Huh, what are you doing here?"

Liu Yifei, with rosy cheeks, saw Zhou Yutang sitting down next to her very naturally.

Move your butt to the side.

The long black coat she was wearing today was hanging on the hanger in the box.

The inner layer is a black tights, showing off her slim waist.

The lower body is made up of slender and well-proportioned legs wrapped in black pantyhose, which, when folded, present a slightly flattened arc shape.

have to say.

Compared to the ethereal and fairy-like look she had in her teenage years, the current Miss Liu has a more mature and graceful manner.

"I came here right after I finished my work there. I didn't even have time to eat."

Zhou Yutang just pretended Shu Chang and the other guy didn't exist, and showed off his fruit plate: "Well, these cherries are really good."

Why can scumbags succeed so often?
It's because he is shameless.

As long as a woman doesn't say no, she's sending a signal of permission to make progress.

The real host had already arrived, and Shu Chang and the other person exchanged glances and tactfully ended the situation early.

A lot of preliminary work has been done, and it will be a natural outcome if we can give them some encouragement now.

Liu Yifei reluctantly let Zhou Yutang get into her business car.

"Hey, don't move."

Liu Yifei clamped Zhou Yutang's wandering hands between her legs, and glared at him, her voice filled with jealousy that she herself was not aware of:

"Didn't Zhou Tao resign from CCTV? How come he's hosting your premiere?"

"Sister Zhou Tao used to take good care of me."

He was just transferred from the position of deputy director of the Cultural and Art Center of CCTV to the Beijing Performing Arts Group, and immediately served as the chief performance officer, taking charge of the important task of planning the group's performance programs.

It is hard to say that there is no one pushing him behind the scenes when he transitioned from the front stage.

Or maybe this is just a bridge built through Zhou Tao in the hope of future cooperation.

Liu Yifei listened to Zhou Yutang's talk with great interest. She didn't feel bored at all. Instead, she felt that she had learned a lot.
"Xiao Zhou, can La La Land really win an Oscar?"

"By any chance, do you like this movie?"

"Well, Anne played it very well."

Liu Yifei seemed to have thought of something, but she didn't say anything in the end.

Zhou Yutang did not push his luck further and just held her all the way home.

"Stinky little Zhou, what are you doing following me down here?"

"I just want to see if Dongdong can do a backflip."

"You better be."

Liu Yifei glared at Zhou Yutang without any harm.

There was a watery look in his eyes, so moist.
This year's preliminary art examination has gradually begun.

Dean Zhang of Beijing Film Academy was really good at his job. He failed to get Zhou Yutang over, but instead pulled his good friend Zhang Ruojun over.

This year, Xigou also served as a celebrity examiner and was very active in the brothers' group:
"Brother Tang, Brother Long, do you still remember Lin Miaoke?"

"Is that the little girl from the Olympics that the national teacher attended?"

"That's her. I met her in the preliminary exam today and she was eliminated."

Time really flies. This year's art exams are dominated by those born after 00.

Beijing Film Academy planned to enroll 499 undergraduate students, but in the end more than 4 people signed up.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is like thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge.

A performing arts academy with the great fortune of having the Grand Commander of Jiangdong in charge must be a golden signboard, and candidates flock to it.

The number of applicants this year increased by more than 45, and the School of Performing Arts expanded its enrollment from 75 to .

Zhou Yutang took a quick look and knew what was going on.

Some of the places had already been reserved, and he was also a beneficiary.

Lin Miaoke was very cute when she was a child, but she lost her charm when she grew up. She also had no background, so it was not surprising that she was eliminated in the initial test.

As for Wang Junkai among the three little ones, he has basically reserved a seat.

The day before the Lantern Festival, Zhou Yutang convened the Jiangdong Entertainment 2017 opening ceremony.

At the beginning of the year, "Eternal Love" became a huge hit, and everyone in the company was excited.

"The three seasons of "Snow" are a billion-dollar production. It's worthy of Governor Zhou. He has great courage."

"Both Ode to Joy 2 and Nirvana in Fire 2 are produced by the Noon Sunshine team and are worth looking forward to."

"The Grand Commander is changing his track again. What's the situation with the period drama "Long River" that is being prepared?"

"I checked it out, and it seems to be adapted from A Nai's novel. Anyway, just believe in the Grand Commander."

"Please start streaming Misty Theater's "Day and Night" soon, my membership has been fully topped up!"

The media reported Jiangdong Entertainment’s film list.

It has sparked widespread discussion throughout the film and television industry, and even on social media.

At this time, "Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" was getting better and better and was still dominating the TV screen.

Recently, as soon as netizens opened Bilibili and Youku APP, pink peach blossoms immediately appeared on the screen.

Jiang Xuehuan also organized an offline event and created a magnificent "Peach Blossom Theme Channel" in the Xidan subway station in Beijing.

During this period, there are various activities such as drawing love lots, praying for love luck, receiving flowers and gifts, etc.

The Peach Blossom Special Train on Line 4 will be launched after the Lantern Festival.

"Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" aired to the 20th episode, and the average viewership ratings reached 2.28%, ranking first in the same period!
As for the number of online views, it has exceeded 52 billion.

And it is growing rapidly with more than 5.2 million online broadcasts per day.

In terms of momentum, there is no other like it.
