China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 872: I can't bear to see the heroes grow old, and I will always remember the rivers and lakes when I return with white hair

"For eight consecutive days, Wolf Warrior 2 has been the single-day box office champion and grossed 20.25 billion yuan, breaking records!"

“People’s Daily commented on Wolf Warrior 2: Chinese soldiers are strong and unyielding, surpassing Western personal heroism!”

The perfect combination of patriotic themes and commercial genre films has set off a nationwide movie-watching craze this summer.

The influence is not limited to the domestic market. Even foreign media are shocked by the commotion created by the Tokyo University film market.

In just eight days, the box office in a single market reached 2 billion!

Converted according to the current exchange rate, it is more than 300 million US dollars, which is a considerable figure.

America's The Hollywood Reporter has already given a special report.

As far as the West is concerned, Zhou Yutang, the manipulator behind the scenes, is far more prestigious than Wu Jing, the director and leading actor.

His photo dominated the coverage.

According to the Hollywood media, it will only be regarded as another miracle created by Zhou Yutang.

IMDb gave it a score of 7.5, which is considered a good rating.

"Congratulations, Mr. Zhou. Wolf Warrior 2 is a huge hit at the box office."

Zhou Yutang was on the crew and received a congratulatory message from Zou Zhongyan.

"Sister Zou, the special effects plan for Aquaman needs to be revised again, and the casting work continues."

"No problem, there was a little problem with James."

In addition to reporting on the preparations for Aquaman, Zou Zhongyan talked about the shooting progress of The Nun: "During the shooting, Director Wen fell down the stairs and broke his calf."

“That’s a really sad thing.”

Zhou Yutang said calmly: "But even if the leg is broken, you can still sit in a wheelchair, so it's not a big problem."

Zou Zhongyan: “.”

There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds.

In fact, the two of them basically contact each other via email every day, and they report on their work over the phone once a week without fail.

As a prominent figure in Jiangdong International Pictures, Zou Zhongyan is very clear about his position.

This created sufficient conditions for Zhou Yutang to manage Jiangdong International Pictures behind the scenes.

"If nothing unexpected happens, we will be able to wrap up the filming in August."

"Almost in time for Halloween. Let James work overtime."

James Wan is a master of horror films. He personally directed "The Nun" and can be said to have a very good grasp of it.

Zhou Yutang asked about the overseas promotion of "Joker".

After the nominations for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival are announced, some things can be arranged in advance.

After talking about business, Zhou Yutang showed concern for Zou Wenhuai:

"I heard that you went back to Hong Kong not long ago. How is your father's health?"

"I went to the hospital at the beginning of the year. Thanks to Mr. Zhou, I had a check-up not long ago and the doctor said I'm in good condition."

Zou Zhongyan said, "A few days ago, I talked to my dad on the phone. He has also been following Wolf Warriors 2 and asked about Joker."

"Mr. Zou is old but his heart is young."

Zhou Yutang sighed softly: "The Venice opening ceremony is only about twenty days away."

After joining the group, time flies by and everything passes by like a cloud of smoke.

All in all, Zou Wenhuai, the founder of Jiahe Group, is already 90 years old this year.

This film industry giant once made kung fu superstars such as Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and Fatty Hung famous.

A very sharp vision.

He placed a heavy bet on Governor Zhou when he had not yet made his fortune.

At that time, Wu Kebo was making waves in the domestic entertainment industry with his Japanese capital and was planning to buy Golden Harvest and list it on the market through a backdoor listing.

Zou Wenhuaili's strategy of delaying caused her to have a miscarriage.

The operation of handing over Golden Harvest to Zhou Yutang surprised many people in the industry, who said that Zou Wenhuai was getting old and confused.

After all, compared to Orange Sky Entertainment, which was backed by strong Japanese capital and was at its peak at the time, Zhou Yutang's Jiangdong could only be described as a rising star.

But now, Orange Sky has long been smashed on the beach by the waves of the times.

There is no such person as Wu Kebo.

Only Governor Zhou has absolute power in the domestic entertainment industry, and the Jiangdong label is renowned worldwide.

The evaluation of Zou Wenhuai has reversed again.

To be fair, Zhou Yutang’s ability to expand Jiangdong International Pictures in Hollywood was indeed inseparable from Zou Wenhuai’s use of his connections.

It doesn’t mean that a good project can emerge and become popular on the other side of the ocean.

Every place has its own rules of the game.

With Hollywood's turmoil, even the bigwigs on Wall Street are being treated as leeks.

No matter how big a figure Zhou Yutang is in the domestic entertainment industry, he still won’t be able to succeed without this guiding stone.

Zou Wenhuai is not in good health, and Mr. He from Haojiang also recently announced his resignation as the executive director of Sun Hung Kai Properties.

The burden was handed over to Ms. He, the eldest daughter of the second wife.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a gradual transition of power.

Ms. He officially became the helmsman of Xinde, a company with a market value of over 10 billion yuan.

When Zhou Yutang was filming in Macau, he maintained a good relationship with the He family. He specially sent a message to Ms. He, and was also a little sad.

I can’t bear to see heroes grow old.

The trendsetters of the last era are gradually leaving the stage.

"Wolf Warrior 2" swept the entire Chinese film industry with a devastating force.

There were rumors all over the industry that Zhou Yutang was behind the scenes, which put Wu Jing, who directed and acted in the film, in the spotlight.

The news about the main creators’ roadshow swept through the entertainment headlines of major portals like a hurricane.

It also includes hot posts on major forums and hot searches on Weibo, all of which are about "Wolf Warrior 2".

With such overwhelming popularity, the director and leading actor Wu Jing naturally became the most sought-after superstar in the entertainment industry.

A phenomenally popular film or television project will bring in far more benefits than this.

For Wang Xiaocong, these days are probably the most wonderful moments he has ever experienced in his life.

Born in Lao Wang's family, there is no lack of attention.

He was used to living in the spotlight.

Even a little numb.

However, since the release of Wolf Warrior 2, Wanda Lao Wang has recently spoken to him in a much softer tone.

This is more useful to him than the flattery and licking of the internet celebrities and young models on WeChat.

This feeling of being recognized made Wang Xiaocong feel a little elated.

I checked the Maoyan app again, and the dynamic box office forecast has reached 55.8 billion!
If there is a background music at this time, it is Deng Chao's "How Lonely It Is to Be Invincible".

Wu Jing was still on the roadshow like crazy, and Wang Xiaocong followed him for a week, but he couldn't stand it anymore and ran away early.

After fighting for such a long time, it's time to enjoy yourself.

Wang Xiaocong hummed a little tune and called the FUSION manager of Xintiandi.

It is difficult for ordinary people to imagine the way the young master plays.

Of course, beautiful women are indispensable.

In addition to the messages sent to the girls via group mobile phones, the managers of these nightclubs also have the top resources in their hands.

They can’t compare to the Grand Commander who eats delicacies from land and sea every day, but the internet celebrities and young models are also quite delicious.

When thinking of Zhou Yutang, Wang Xiaocong couldn't help but think of Sun Yining, and his breath was held in place.

Ever since letting go of the past and attaining enlightenment, he has been unrivaled in the love field.

Girls nowadays are more proactive than each other. He happened to meet a female guest who made his heart beat faster and made a little advance, but was rejected miserably.

Women are really strange creatures.

You have been caring and acting like a warm guy for a long time, but you still can't win her heart.

But some people can fall for you with just a glance.

Not all women will be with men for money, but they will definitely risk their lives for the so-called feeling. Sports cars can't run in Shanghai. While Wang Xiaocong was waiting for the traffic light, he checked the news on his phone.

"Internet celebrity Sun Yining checked into the hotel where Grand Commander was staying and did not return all night!"

"Revealing the new top-notch Pisces girl!"

The green light came on, but Wang Xiaocong just stood there in a daze, forgetting to start the car.

It was clearly midsummer, but snow began to fall in his world.
What are you doing at the hotel where Zhou Yutang is staying?
We can't discuss the script in the middle of the night, right?
Sun Yining is not an actor, so it is possible that she is just making a guest appearance in "Snow".

"It is really good-looking, carefully selected by the Grand Commander, and the quality is trustworthy."

"Since the Grand Commander has worked so hard, I will allow Concubine Ning to enter the palace."

"I want to ask, Tianxian is also in the crew, won't she be angry?"

"I'm used to eating delicacies from land and sea, so I just try street snacks occasionally."

"Are you going to guest star in 'In the Snow'?"

News about Zhou Yutang's scandals and gossip never stops all year round.

Zhou Yutang had already gotten used to it and was even too lazy to keep the rhythm.

He originally worked in the entertainment industry.

It doesn't matter if passers-by just enjoy the meal and have fun.

Of course, this does not mean that the people in charge of those platforms are not working.

The current scale of Jiangdong Entertainment is a giant in the domestic entertainment industry.

It has mastered major online media platform channels including ByteDance, Weibo, and Xiaohongshu.

Tencent is deeply integrated and fully cooperating, and everyone has already reached a tacit understanding. If there is a little bit of excessive slander, the red card will be given and the account will be directly blocked.

“These marketing accounts are too shameless.”

Chen Duling took Sun Yining to wander around the crew, complaining to herself.

"It doesn't matter. I'm still taking advantage of the popularity."

Sun Yining looked nonchalant and held Chen Duling's hand: "Why didn't I see Liu Tianxian on the set?"

"We're split into two groups for this shoot, and Tianxian is still in Director Sun Hao's group."

"That's a shame."

"What are you sorry for?"

Chen Duling glanced at her and whispered, "Don't provoke the celestial being, or you will suffer the consequences."

"what are you thinking."

Sun Yining rolled her eyes and said, "Everyone says Liu Yifei looks better offline, but I just looked at her in person."

"You are such a face-hungry person, there is really no hope for you."

"Dudu, what do you usually do on the set?"

When I was in school, girls often went to the toilet hand in hand. Now Sun Yining and Chen Duling are in a similar situation.

Everyone in the "Snow" crew was quite curious about the internet celebrity who conquered Governor Zhou in the legend.

She is so brave that she rushed to the crew to see her lover in front of the beauty. I wonder if this can be considered an alternative NTR?

For example, Meng Ziyi pretended to pass by and asked, "Dudu, have you seen where the boss is? I want to talk to him about the script."

"It seems to be in the RV."

"Oh."

Meng Ziyi was talking to Chen Duling, but his eyes were looking at Sun Yining.

Even as a woman, I have to admit that with this face, I can still stand out even in the entertainment industry where there are so many beautiful women.

"Hello, I'm Meng Ziyi."

"Hello, hello, my name is Sun Yining."

There was no sense of familiarity at first sight. After a polite yet awkward greeting, Meng Ziyi left gracefully.

"Why is Meng Ziyi always staring at me?"

Looking at that twisting back, Sun Yining lowered her voice and said, "She looks like green tea. Look at her small waist. She's the best tea. She looks a bit like Nazha."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Chen Duling suddenly felt a headache. He covered Sun Yining's mouth and looked around guiltily.

When she found that no one noticed this, she breathed a sigh of relief: "You are going to die, Naza, how dare you say that?"

In this circle, everyone knows that Nazha is the godsister of the Grand Commander, who has been escorting her all the way to her debut.

It’s not like there weren’t male artists who approached Nazha, but without exception, they were all arranged to date.

"If you're in this circle, you must keep your mouth shut. There are some things you can't say."

Chen Duling said seriously with a stern face.

"Your circle is really chaotic."

Sun Yining made a gesture of zipping up her mouth, and the stage manager over there shouted that the stage was about to be cleared.

The security guards nearby were scanning in all directions like radars, mainly to stop all kinds of proxy photographers.

Those people are really powerful. Sometimes the styling in a drama needs to be matched with marketing and cannot be leaked in advance.

Sun Yining was Chen Duling's little follower, but she was not kicked out. She just watched the fun from the outside.

See Zhou Yutang with her makeup on.

With white hair and a textured white robe, she looked like a fairy from heaven in Ling Chen's world.

Sun Yining took a deep breath and his eyes became slightly straight.

The moment the brothers see a beautiful woman on the street, they may not even notice that there is light in their eyes.

The same is true when girls see a handsome guy they like.

While Zhou Yutang was having the final conversation with Kong Sheng before the shoot, Chen Duling pulled Sun Yining and whispered, "The shoot will start soon, don't talk."

"Why is Xu Fengnian's hair all white?"

Sun Yining pointed at her hair and asked in a low voice.

“That’s the story behind.”

Chen Duling explained to Sun Yining: "Persimmon went to Beimang, and then met the fifth He, the master of Tibing Mountain in Beimang."

"What a weird name?"

Sun Yining asked, tilting her head.

The first thing that came to her mind was the mink coat, which is a favorite of people in Northeast China.

Facing Sun Yining's clear and foolish eyes, Chen Duling put his hand on his forehead:
"Probably in the second season, there was a villain who was stronger than Persimmon. He killed him at the cost of his life. His white hair was the sequelae."

“That’s so cool.”

Sun Yining was talking to Chen Duling, but his eyes were fixed on Zhou Yutang.

This sentence really came from her heart, just like saying that Xiao Wang is greasy.

Sister Ning is out in the world, focusing on being real.

"Okay."

Chen Duling curled her lips, took a look, and added: "A little bit handsome."

When Zhou Yutang first debuted, he became famous for his good looks.

The super high brow bone and nose bridge match the delicate face and the neat and clean lower jaw line.

There are many kinds of handsome guys, but only Zhou Yutang is so handsome that he is impeccable.

Sun Yining suddenly thought of a survey conducted in South Korea that she saw on the Internet some time ago.

The standard template provided by many plastic surgery institutions in Korea is Zhou Yutang.

A Japanese program surveyed boys aged 10 to 19 about which actor's face they most wanted to have, and the top ten male artists were recently announced.

The first place is still won by the entertainment emperor of the Celestial Empire.

People like Sota Fukushi, Kento Yamazaki, Masaki Suda, etc. are all younger brothers.

The face of the Grand Commander of Jiangdong is indeed handsome and visually impactful.

They are so handsome that they touched Sun Yining's heart.
