China Entertainment Anchor

After Liu Yifei finished speaking, she walked out. At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the two of them went to the studio together. Met Zhang Yiming and several byte running programmers.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Zhang Yiming took out a mobile phone and handed it to Zhang Yang: "Director Zhang, the APP marked with a musical note above is the short video software we are going to launch. The tentative name is Douyin."

Zhang Yang took the phone and saw the software logo, feeling that something familiar was back.

He clicked on the software APP, and when he opened it, a video of a female college student dancing appeared. Don’t say it yet! It looks pretty good.

"The dance is beautiful!" Liu Yifei, who was sitting next to Zhang Yang, said lightly.

"It's not bad." Zhang Yang said and subconsciously scrolled up. A new video appeared, another video of a female college student dancing.

Seeing this, Liu Yifei couldn't help but complain to Zhang Yiming: "Why are there such videos in your software?"

A programmer from Byte explained: "Ms. Liu, our first step in promoting Douyin is to prepare to establish cooperation with major universities, especially art schools, and let them release related art music videos."

"Eating and sex, this is a good idea. In reality, there are a lot of old people." Zhang Yang checked again. This time it was a video of a beautiful woman playing the flute, but what she was playing made Zhang Yang raise an eyebrow.

"When did the music copyright of "Unknown" come to you?" Zhang Yang looked at the people opposite.

Zhang Yiming and several programmers laughed, and then an employee explained to Zhang Yang: "This is used during testing. We will pay attention to it after the public beta."

"Director Zhang, don't underestimate the two swipes you just made. This is the first of its kind in China. They didn't slide up and down at Kuaishou." Another employee told Zhang Yang.

For short videos, swiping up videos is a general trend, but Kuaishou didn’t start testing this feature until 18.

Next, they introduced Zhang Yang's various advantages of Douyin in detail, praising it as something that exists in the sky but not on the earth.

Finally, Zhang Yiming spoke up: "Ms. Liu, I don't know if you are interested in endorsing our software. When the time comes, you can just shoot a few videos."

Liu Yifei shook her head simply: "I don't know how to take pictures of these things. I am very ordinary in taking pictures myself."

She was telling the truth now. She had refused to admit it in front of Zhang Yang before.

"Our Douyin is different from Kuaishou. You don't need to shoot it yourself. You can ask professionals to help you shoot it. This will make it look good! This is not a problem for you, Ms. Liu." Zhang Yiming argued with Liu Yifei.

Not to mention that Liu Yifei has Zhang Yang by her side, but she doesn't. She also has her own professional team, so it's not easy to shoot a short video.

Liu Yifei still shook her head. She would be even less interested in this. If she had this time, she might as well practice the piano, read a book, sing, and play with the cat.

"Since Yifei is not interested, when will your software be launched?" Zhang Yang interrupted their conversation.

The people at Byte were a little disappointed, but they still replied to Zhang Yang: "The students will go back to school at the end of this month, and our plan can be launched just in time."

Afterwards, everyone communicated for a while, and the Byte people went back.

After Zhang Yang saw them off, Team Leader Zhou came to him with a serious face: "Boss, yesterday we guided the topic of "The Bourne Supremacy", and the employees of the General Administration seemed to be paying attention."

"Tell me more about it." Zhang Yang said as he walked towards the hall.

Liu Yifei, who was on the sidelines, became a little interested when she heard this. This was Zhang Yang's own fault, and now he has to bear the consequences.

After the three people sat down, Team Leader Zhou said: "Yesterday we created a lot of topics about converting "The Bourne Supremacy" to 5D, which caused a lot of discussion. At that time, I saw people from the General Administration recording something."

"Then did he ask you?" Zhang Yang said.

"No."

"With him here, you should be more careful in the future." Zhang Yang looked at Team Leader Zhou. This is also the reason why Zhang Yang introduced employees from the General Administration. With him as Team Leader Zhou, he can't float, so he has worries!
"I know, that for him..."

"Just pretend that he doesn't exist and do whatever you want. Isn't what we do shameful?" Zhang Yang looked indifferent.

"Okay." Team Leader Zhou responded in a deep voice and then returned to his department.

After Zhang Yang left, he immediately went to the private team. Liu Yifei saw Zhang Yang's whereabouts and followed him curiously.

After he came to the private team, he immediately asked Secretary Li: "Are there enough people in the team now?"

"It's enough. We have plenty of manpower." There are dozens of them, and they mainly serve Zhang Yang. It's enough. Even if they have to take care of Liu Yifei and Liu's mother sometimes, that's not a problem.

"Okay, then you must be ready to take on more burdens at any time. There will be more things entrusted to you in the future."

Secretary Li didn't feel embarrassed at all when he heard Zhang Yang's words. Instead, he nodded solemnly. He was not afraid of having too many things, but only that of having too few things.

After Zhang Yang explained the matter to him, he left the studio.

On the way back, Liu Yifei held Zhang Yang's hand and said with a bit of joking, "Is this what you mean by treating him as if he doesn't exist?"

Obviously, Zhang Yang was reminded by Team Leader Zhou that many things in the future would be handled by a private team.

"Just in case! Anything can happen in this world." It is essential to be on guard against others.

Just pay attention in the past few years, Douyin has come out.

The next morning, Zhang Yang received an unexpected phone call in his study.

Hou Hongliang called from Sunshine in the afternoon. He should be in the United States now.

"Director Zhang, I'm ready to return to China." Hou Hongliang said simply after answering the phone.

"Have you got any new ideas?" Zhang Yang thought.

Hou Hongliang sighed: "After looking around in Hollywood, I realized that the entire industry chain is a beautiful pie. There are too many things involved in it that we don't understand at all. What we are good at is just making TV series."

"so what?"

"I'm going to shrink my business after I go back. Huaren Culture..." "Invite him to come to the capital."

"Okay, then I'll go back today, and I'll take care of this matter as soon as I get back." Hou Hongliang felt that the matter had been settled.

Huaren Culture’s investment is only 3000 million, and they only hold 15% of the shares, but their energy cannot be underestimated. But as long as Zhang Yang is there to control the situation, everything will not be a problem.

After Zhang Yang hung up the phone, he was thinking about how to arrange things this time. For him, Huaren Culture will definitely not offend easily. Everything can be discussed carefully by then.

After a while, Liu Yifei walked into the study. She held a black suit in front of her and gestured to Zhang Yang: "How about you wear this suit to Venice?"

Zhang Yang looked at the clothes in Liu Yifei's hand and suddenly remembered something. The Venice Film Festival seemed to be opening!

"Could your choice of Yifei be any worse?" Zhang Yang complimented with a smile.

Liu Yifei looked at Zhang Yang's smiling face and instinctively felt that it was abnormal.

"Are you hiding something from me?" Liu Yifei looked at Zhang Yang and said firmly.

"It's not that I'm hiding something from you, but I have to help you deal with something. I can't go to the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival."

"What can I do?"

"Hou Hongliang of Afternoon Sunshine is back from the United States. This time he will make big plans when he comes back. I want to support him."

Liu Yifei was speechless for a moment. Afternoon Sunshine was invested in the name of her studio, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was her fault, although everyone knew that it was Zhang Yang's investment.

And Liu Yifei is a judge at the Venice Film Festival, and she will definitely be there for the opening ceremony.

She glanced at the suit in her hand: "I brought the clothes for you."

"Okay, you are still virtuous! By the way, you will also go to the premiere of "Joker" on my behalf."

"Got it." Liu Yifei said and turned to leave with an expressionless face.

Zhang Yang knew that Liu Yifei was a little disappointed when he saw her, so he got up and went back to the bedroom. When Liu Yifei put away her clothes and came out, Zhang Yang walked over and hugged her waist from behind: "This time, you can fly over on a private plane. !”

Liu Yifei was not ignorant, she was just a little disappointed. She shook her head: "I'll keep it for you!"

"It's not necessary. I can just send you there and then fly you back."

"Okay!" She was not pretentious.

The next day, Liu Yifei flew to Venice with her assistant, bodyguards and makeup team.

Time comes to Venice local number 31. During this time, two major events happened in the domestic entertainment industry.
First, Big Brother Cheng won the Oscar Lifetime Achievement Award. He is the first person in China and the fourth person in Asia to win this award.

The popularity he aroused in China was average. Since the beginning of the Internet era, his private life has been criticized by everyone. He does not recognize his daughter, and his son eats flour. The most important thing is that he is really not good enough in the film field.

Coupled with the comparison with Zhang Yang's achievements, domestic netizens basically said "oh" when he won this award.

The second thing is interesting. The bearded wife put a cuckold on him and still had a son with him.

Everyone likes to eat this kind of melon. I just had a baby boy about half a month ago, and at the end of the month, I also had a big beard. His food and sex habits are also bad! Not just empty words.

On the 31st, Venice, Lido Island, at five o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Yifei came to the red carpet backstage wearing a golden dress. After she arrived, many people came to say hello.

Although Liu Yifei is young, her honor and Zhang Yang behind her cannot be underestimated by anyone.

This year she is here to be a judge. Many film contestants are not allowed to interact with her too much, otherwise they will gossip, otherwise she will not be able to live in peace.

After everyone laughed and chatted, a senior executive from Phoenix and Warner came over.

"Crystal, nice to see you again." Phoenix smiled and looked at Liu Yifei.

"Thank you, me too." Liu Yifei nodded to him.

"It's a pity that director Zhang Yang couldn't come to the premiere of "Joker". This is really a pity." Phoenix said with regret.

Warner executives also nodded in agreement.

"You can think of me as him." Liu Yifei said playfully.

Both of them laughed when they heard this. She is director Zhang Yang's wife and can indeed represent him.

"But Crystal, it's good that you can come." Warner executives complimented.

Liu Yifei has "Mulan", "Li Xiuning" and "Extreme Escape". Her achievements in commercial films are no less than in literary films. She can now support her appearance by attending a premiere, even in Venice.

Liu Yifei smiled and was about to speak, when a group of beauties came over and shouted at the same time: "Sister Yifei."

Liu Yifei looked at the four people in front of her, Zhang Yuqi, Wang Ziwen, Zhou Dongyu and Ma Sichun.

"Hello." Liu Yifei nodded, then looked at someone and said hello proactively: "Professor Cao."

Professor Cao also nodded to Liu Yifei. This time, four people from the crew of "The Murderer" came over. In addition to him, there were also Zhang Yi, Liu Ye and Wang Ziwen.

The crew of "July and Ansheng" is interesting. In addition to the two heroines, the producer Chen Kexin is here. Director Zeng Guoxiang did not come.

The other three actresses don't feel much, they are currently too far away from Liu Yifei.

Zhang Yuqi, who was invited by the brand, was different.

She used to be the wife of a great director, but unfortunately she left. Now she can only come to attend the red carpet. In just a few years, she has lost her glory and things have changed!
