China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 880 Embroidering the Dragon Flag Overnight

This is a fact recognized by both insiders and outsiders.

Zhao Liying's achievements are there, and she is undoubtedly a top-tier actress.

And Wu Yifan should not be underestimated.

With the momentum of returning to Korea, he made another breakthrough with "Sister-in-law Loves Hip-Hop" and achieved real popularity.

In terms of momentum, he is catching up with Lu Han, one of the top four kings.

She has successively become the spokesperson for two top luxury brands, Louis Vuitton and Burberry.

It also appeared in Hollywood's "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" series of IP movies.

Although Didi didn’t perform a freestyle in “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets”, she is qualified to be in a Hollywood blockbuster, which is enough to show her status.

After all, Teacher Hong Rufan is just a minor character in Tin Man.

With a box office of nearly 2 million in three days, it has slightly surpassed "Wolf Warrior 2", which is about to be postponed.

Unfortunately, the domestic film market is currently in a cooling-down period after its popularity was drained by "Wolf Warrior 2".

After performing strongly for three days on the first day, the box office quickly dropped to around 20 million, and it was difficult to achieve any success at the subsequent box office.

The Meganes were all excited.

Just say whether you win or not?
Wuli is standing up straight, and is going to defeat Leng Feng head-on? !

Now facing Zhao Liying, I am not afraid at all, I am going to beat you, a country girl!
The Internet is full of people who are just there to watch the fun and enjoy the show.

The drama between the local and top stars was in full swing, but it was suppressed by a mysterious force.

Wu Yifan's studio published a Weibo post almost overnight:
"We deeply apologize for the recent discussion of "Miss You" which has gone beyond the scope of artistic creation and has occupied public resources.

After friendly negotiations with @赵丽影工作室, the misunderstanding has been cleared up. Mr. Wu Yifan always respects every collaborator, and he also respects and is happy to have the opportunity to work with Ms. Zhao Liying.

At the same time, I also hope that everyone can return their attention to the work itself.

Mr. Wu Yifan will bring us more excellent works. We will initiate legal proceedings for some irrational remarks.

Welcome everyone to listen to my new song, and I wish Ms. Zhao Liying's new drama "Princess Agents" will have long-lasting ratings.

The mountains remain green, the water flows forever, and we'll meet again."

I don’t know how Wu Yifan’s team restrains the big fans, but the Meganes who were passionately battling with Fireflies yesterday have all lost their enthusiasm.

"That's it? Is this the end? Wu Yifan, can you slide down faster?" - Did Ke Ke quit the circle today?

"Alas, I knew this would be the result. Zhao Liying has been kept by the Grand Commander for so many years." - This account has been cancelled
"Take away my unique beauty, the new drama "Princess Princess" by the queen of domestic entertainment, produced by Jiangdongjia and Tangren, welcome everyone to join in." - Firefly Carrying the Flag

"Why are you so cowardly? Show the dragon flag all night long. [Funny]" - One withered and one flourished

"It must be the Grand Commander who spoke. It's not that Ke Ke knows he's wrong, he's just afraid that he's going to be in trouble." - Ming Xiaoyao
"."

The villain bosses in countless Chinese entertainment novels have knelt down in front of capital in such a magnificent way.

Even Zhou Yutang did not show up in person. Chen Duling felt the taste of power and felt a little complicated.

Just a few phone calls and you can decide life and death. This feeling is really intoxicating.

Meng Ziyi has also been paying attention to this matter.

She didn't have many roles in the early days and spent most of her time just slacking off on the set.

Anyway, with Zhou Yutang's permission, I can get on and off the super luxurious RV freely.

It's so nice to enjoy the cool air conditioning, play the trumpet, dive and eat melons.

Yesterday, I accidentally liked a post that mocked Wu Yifan’s fried noodles. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and canceled it immediately.

I also talked about this with my bestie in private, and finally Li Yitong made an envious summary:

"It's so blissful to be an artist of the Jiangdong family!"

"Is there any?"

"You really don't know the blessings in the blessing!"

Li Yitong's mouth twitched slightly, and he said speechlessly:

"You are really too well protected. You don't know how dangerous the world is. The entertainment companies in the circle are more cunning than each other. I have a little sister who signed a 20-year contract with a company."

"No way, 20 years?"

Meng Ziyi was startled, his mouth was like a machine gun: "How did you sign the contract? Isn't this a contract to sell yourself?"

How many twenty years are there in life?

In another twenty years, maybe even rabbits will have landed on the moon.

"It's a contract to sell one's body."

Li Yitong was filled with righteous indignation and said: "At that time, they made big promises, saying that they would train her to be the top actress in the company, but after signing the contract, she didn't have any resources at all. She stayed there for three years and only played supporting roles in two dramas, and she had to go through the trouble of signing up for the dramas herself."

“That’s too tragic.”

Sister Meng sympathized and asked, "Why don't you terminate the contract?"

"It's written in the contract that the termination fee is 300 million. She's now preparing to hire a lawyer to sue."

"."

Following Wu Yifan's topic, the two best friends complained without reservation.

Li Yitong was also a little envious.

Although SMG is also a giant in the Shanghai circle, the film and television resources it controls cannot be compared with Jiangdong Entertainment.

In recent years, they have focused on family emotional dramas, which is the track of female artists such as Hai Qing and Bai Lao Shi, leaving Li Yitong little room to perform.

Of course, the main reason is definitely to be able to get close to your idol.

What else do I need when I am with the Grand Commander day and night and filming with him?

"Let me tell you, Governor Zhou looked absolutely stunning on the red carpet at the BRICS Film Festival a few days ago."

Speaking of Zhou Yutang, Li Yitong was unusually active, "Sister Meng, is your boss going to the Venice Film Festival again soon?"

"Don't you have WeChat? Why don't you ask him yourself?"

"How presumptuous."

Li Yitong was a little hesitant: "I'm afraid of disturbing his filming."

"Aren't you afraid of disturbing my filming?"

"You're just here to help anyway, so it's not a big deal."

"That's enough, I have an exciting scene coming up."

"Let me reveal a little bit."

"I really can't tell you. There are confidentiality regulations."

Meng Ziyi said carelessly: "You want to find my boss, there is nothing to be afraid of, he is easy to talk to, I have even slept in his RV."

Her mouth speaks faster than her brain, and she realizes something is wrong only after she has said it.

"What did you say?"

Li Yitong on the opposite side reacted instantly, and the fire of gossip in his eyes burned fiercely.

"No no"

Meng Ziyi's face suddenly turned red, and he quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just slept in his car."

"Slept?"

Li Yitong accurately captured the key word, pupil earthquake.

After three days of separation, you should look at each other with admiration.

It's only been a month since we last met, and Sister Meng, you've even captured the Grand Commander?
No, your sisters are very close to you, so why are you sleeping with your boyfriend behind their backs?
"Oh, listen to me, it's not what you think."

Mengzi was in a state of anxiety, and tried to organize his words: "I mean, when the boss was not around, I took a rest in his RV. You don't know that his RV is really super comfortable, even more luxurious than the presidential suite."

"Yeah, I believe it."

After a lot of blah blah, Li Yitong reluctantly gave her a way out.

"It's so hot in this weather, why isn't the car cool?"

Meng Ziyi fanned himself but still felt a little dry, so he turned the air conditioner to 16 degrees.

She didn't realize that her pretty face had become as beautiful as a peach without her knowing when.
******
end of August.

The episode of actor variety show in which Zhou Yutang served as a guest has finally been aired.

Arthur is really lucky.

The last time I appeared on a variety show with poet Chen, "Arthur, please take a seat" became a famous internet meme.

This time, it was his Uncle Zhou, who was born as a saint of public opinion, who made it to the headlines.

"Fuck you, do you think you're handsome?"

"Watching Zhou Yutang's original version, I saw two people's innocent and beautiful first love, watching Arthur's performance, and the old man on the subway looking at his phone.jpg."

"By the way, who is that girl who acted with Arthur? She looks pretty."

"It seems to be the newcomer Wang Rongran from the Jiangdong family. Zhou Yutang's aesthetic taste is indeed good."

"Oh my god, where did this Zhang Yu come from? His acting is really good."

"Xie Junhao's acting skills are even more explosive. I went to see Nanhai Shisanlang, it's so classic!"

"Support the Grand Commander. I'm following this variety show."

"."

After the phenomenal hits of "In the Name of People", "Joy of Life", "Snow Swordsman" and other dramas, various acting highlights were spread virally through the most popular short video platform.

Comparing these veteran actors with the popular young actors, the gap is immediately apparent.

All I can say is that being the ratings king is no joke.

The ratings for this episode of the variety show where Zhou Yutang served as a guest more than doubled compared to the previous episode!
Including the online playback volume of this episode, it exceeded 10 billion within hours!
Whether it is Weibo or the entertainment section of Douyin, the hot searches are almost all about news about actors and variety shows. Zhou Yutang single-handedly opened the era of traffic.

Traffic is rampant nowadays, and the world has suffered from it for a long time.

With the help of this variety show, Governor Zhou has put the brakes on the era of traffic.

Maybe the effect is not obvious at the moment, but at least the audience's aesthetic taste has been influenced subtly.

I have a clear idea of ​​what qualities a good actor should possess.

The audience was all making fun of Arthur.

However, Zhang Yu's acting skills impressed most of the audience.

In particular, his grassroots character in the performance clips is quite likable and can completely resonate with most of the audience.

Jiangdong Building, fourth floor conference room, audition summary meeting for "Nobody".

"Mr. Zhou still has a sharp vision."

Guo Fan rested his head on his hands and sat back in his chair: "After testing so many people, this octopus is really amazing."

"It's Zhang Yu, not Octopus."

Rao Xiaozhi pushed the glasses on his nose and said with a smile, "He has an ordinary look but a hint of wildness. He is really suitable for the role of Hu Guangsheng."

"Zhang Yu or Octopus, they are almost the same."

Guo Fan stretched and muttered, "Is that settled?"

"Ok, deal."

******
"Congratulations, Brother Yu."

Zhang Yu, who received the notice from his agent, had just finished an audition for another crew.

After the episode of "Actors" variety show in which the Grand Commander participated was broadcast, he became a little famous.

There are many savvy people in this circle. Many film and television companies that bought shares in advance have extended olive branches to him.

There is no doubt about the male lead, but there are many supporting roles like the second and third male lead.

"Aren't you kidding?"

"Brother, I am kidding you. Manager Mao from Jiangdong notified us to go over and sign the contract. However, this drama will start shooting in September, so the contract with another crew may have to be postponed."

"Push it for me."

After digesting the excitement, Zhang Yu took a deep breath.

In front of the leading male actor of Jiangdong Entertainment’s film and television project.

Is this even worth considering?
Even if it is a low-budget production with a relatively small investment, the quality of the script is there, and the golden signboard created by Jiangdong Entertainment's undefeated record is there.

Any fool knows how to choose.

Zhang Yu was very proactive. He booked a direct flight to Beijing and took a taxi to the airport.

The blazing summer sun shines on the glass curtain walls of the high-rise buildings that fly past quickly, reflecting a light so dazzling that it makes people dizzy.

Life is like this, ups and downs.

If it weren’t for what Zhou Yutang said.

Maybe I am still playing the role of a pure love warrior in a casual urban romance drama.

Or maybe he was a tough guy who tore apart the Japanese in a war drama.
Zhang Yu was very clear about the value of the recommendation made by Governor Zhou that night.

The so-called noble person is nothing more than this.

Gather your thoughts.

Feeling grateful, Zhang Yu solemnly sent a WeChat message to the benefactor to express his gratitude.

******
Zhou Yutang had just finished a scene and was sweating profusely.

Just as I was taking off my costume and taking a shower in the RV, I received a message from Chen Duling informing me that the early casting work for "Nobody" had been finalized.

The entertainment reporter who was hiding in the bushes under the Jiangdong Building released the first-hand news report:

"Supervised by Guo Fan, produced by Liu Shishi, directed by Rao Xiaozhi, starring Zhang Songwen, Zhang Yu, Ren Suxi, Pan Binlong, Yang Chaoyue and others, the black comedy "Nobody" will start filming next month!"

More than ten years ago, there was a black comedy movie that made Ning Hao, Huang Bo, Xu Guangtou and others famous overnight.

The Crazy series has contributed many famous memes, which are still talked about even after ten years.

Now, Ning Hao has started filming the third installment of the Crazy series "Crazy Alien", following Stone and Racing Car.

Jiangdong Entertainment is now the center of media attention. The release of this black comedy film has also attracted a lot of attention from both inside and outside the circle.

"I heard that it was Zhang Yu who was chosen by the Grand Commander. It's worth looking forward to."

"Why doesn't Liu Shishi personally participate in the performance?"

"Yijie is now a capital. It seems that Tangren has received investment from Shangshi Pictures."

"Is this Koi's first movie?"

"If I remember correctly, she has been studying acting for several years, so she should have improved a lot."

"."

The entire crew, from the director to the main creators, except Zhang Songwen and Xiao Jinli.

The fame of the other actors combined is not as great as that of producer Liu Shishi.

It’s just like the title of the movie, they are all unknown people.

On the other hand, the academic seminar on "Wolf Warrior 2" has become a hot news at the moment.

The figure of six billion can be said to be a milestone in the history of Chinese-language films. With official media taking turns to report on it, it is naturally worth writing about in detail.

The main creators of the crew, including Wang Changtian and Liu Xiaobing, received invitations and all accepted the invitation to attend.

After all, it was a gold medal issued by Long Xuan and the Film Bureau, so it was only the Grand Commander who was willful and did not come.

The reason given was: time was tight and I was about to leave for Venice.

Before leaving the crew, Zhou Yutang did not forget to call Wu Jing:

"Brother Jing, how do you feel about being a director with a box office of 6 billion?"

"Almost, almost"

Wu Jing grinned so hard that wrinkles appeared on the corners of his eyes. "It feels like a dream, a little unreal. It's going to cost 6 billion?"

The box office has now exceeded 59 billion, and the single-day box office is still over million.

What's more, there is an extension key, so it is only a matter of time before the number exceeds 60 billion.

“We can go up a little further.”

Zhou Yutang took a look at Maoyan's dynamic box office forecast and said, "It will probably peak at less than 63 billion."

This time, in addition to Jiangdong Entertainment's full-channel promotion, the ground-based promotion power of Guangxian Entertainment and the assistance of official media were added, and the influence broke through the circle.

Over 1.5 million moviegoers!
Only people in the industry know how exaggerated this data is.

It directly broke the record for the number of moviegoers in a single market worldwide, and it is a record that is very difficult to break.

A lot of film and television companies in Hollywood were dumbfounded.

But some media organizations that received the dog food also started barking.

"This is a Chinese action movie full of nationalism. The bluffing Chinese patriotism is actually the spread of blind arrogance and irrational emotions.
It’s basically a typical Hollywood action movie plot, but this time it’s the Chinese who are upholding justice and protecting world security, which seems a bit strange. Not everyone in China agrees with the message of Wolf Warrior 2. ” - BBC
Some domestic experts actually jumped out and said: "The box office revenue of this film was basically achieved domestically. We need to reflect on how Chinese films can go global."

A teacher from the Central Academy of Drama made a stern criticism: "This movie has no logic and no values. The author's psychology seems to be a little twisted and perverted. It simply relies on selling blood and gore to create ignition points, without considering the negative impact on children at all."

“Isn’t RMB money?”

Wu Jing's response was very aggressive: "I don't care about your this or that. If you don't like it, just don't look at it!"

Being at the center of the storm, there are bound to be a lot of controversies, but no matter what, times create legends.

It has basically reached the current box office limit of the Chinese film market.

Everyone who should watch it has already watched it, some even watched it twice, and some brought their family and elders to watch it a third time to support it.

I just want to see Chinese films make further progress on the global box office charts.

While I was talking to Zhou Yutang, several more calls came in.

Wu Jing dealt with them one by one, feeling a little emotional.

In just one month, he has become the most watched person in the entertainment industry besides Zhou Yutang.

Except for some dog barking on the Internet that he automatically filtered out.

All the people I meet around me are good people.

Under such circumstances of being popular among the public, Wu Jing felt a little elated.

Wu Jing, who was tossing and turning at night, took advantage of Wu Suowei's sleep and hugged Xie Nan and asked:
"Honey, are you asleep?"

"Ok?"

"I can not sleep."

Wu Jing suddenly sighed: "I feel like I'm a little bit floating when I walk recently. Do you think I've fallen?"

"Where have you been?"

Xie Nan turned around and said seriously: "Think about Zhou Yutang, he reached the top a few years ago, and he did things down-to-earth. Don't take the outside world's flattery too seriously. It's important to know your own position."

"The horses will keep running, the dances will keep going, and the girls will keep picking up."

Wu Jing nodded.

"Why, you want to try it too?"

Xie Nan raised his eyebrows, full of murderous intent.

Without waiting for Wu Jing to answer, he suddenly used his unique skill, the Dragon Catching Hand.
