Huayu Entertainment: Who let him be the director!

“When will the filming of Painted Skin begin?”

After expressing his feelings, Tian Zhuangzhuang asked about Zhou Qing’s new film.

It is no exaggeration to say that Zhou Qing's "Painted Skin" is now one of the top film projects that attracts the most attention in the industry.

Especially after Chen Shishi's blockbuster "The Promise" failed.

After all, "Painted Skin" is also a blockbuster.

Zhou Qing is a great director at the same level as Chen Shishi.

"The filming will start on the 10th. I came back so early this time just to shoot Painted Skin."

Zhou Qing told Tian Zhuangzhuang the truth.

"If you need anything, just tell me. As a teacher, I will definitely support you fully."

Tian Zhuangzhuang learned some other information and spoke to Zhou Qing very sincerely.

"Don't worry, teacher. This movie is backed by China Film Group. I don't think there will be any problems."

"But if there is really a need for a teacher, I will definitely come to find a teacher."

Zhou Qing felt warm in his heart, and then he said to Tian Zhuangzhuang with a smile.

Han Sanping is a well-known Third Master in the underworld. Who dares to act wildly?

"Boss Han, Happy New Year! I'm here to wish you a happy new year!"

"Happy New Year! Happy New Year!"

After bidding farewell to Tian Zhuangzhuang, Zhou Qing went straight to Han Sanping.

Han Sanping was very happy to see Zhou Qing, and he pulled Zhou Qing aside and expressed his feelings.

"I have to thank you. Your song "Hearing Girl" made my year much better."

At first glance, Han Sanping's words sounded exaggerated, but he was really not trying to fool Zhou Qing.

After all, "The Promise" was a huge flop.

Even Han Sanping's status has attracted a lot of gossip.

If it weren't for the impressive data of "The Hearing Girl" that was able to save some face, Han Sanping would have had a really bad year.

"Without President Han's support, 'Hearing Girl' wouldn't have the current box office success."

Zhou Qing naturally responded with some nice words, since nice words don’t cost any money anyway.

"The Hearing Girl has also made over 100 million yuan. Now you have the awards and the box office. Your status as a great director will no longer be questioned."

When Han Sanping said this, he felt a bit dazed.

After all, the face in front of me is too young.

Although they are said to be the sons of Zhang Chenfeng, they still seem young, but they have achieved the same level of achievements as Zhang Chenfeng.

Come to think of it, it is indeed a bit weird.

Considering that there will be a change of leadership next year, Han Sanping is trying his best to make further progress.

Then a talented and gifted director like Zhou Qing must be tied up tightly.

Han Sanping couldn't help but think secretly in his heart.

"Director Zhou, congratulations on the box office success of "Hearing Girl"!"

"Congratulations on the box office success of "Hearing Girl"."

"Congratulations, Director Zhou. The Hearing Girl grossed 1.34 million yuan!"

On February 2, "Hearing Girl", which had just made a strong presence, held a grand celebration party.

First, it won the Golden Lion Award in Venice, and then earned 1.37 million at the box office.

With such dazzling achievements, China Film Group has put in all its efforts to organize the event on a grand scale, and needless to say, the presentation is naturally top-notch.

The celebrities in the circle also gave face.

After all, to be honest, the box office of "The Hearing Girl" exceeded 100 million yuan, and Zhou Qing's status and weight were different.

A step further than before!
So the scene at the celebration banquet can be imagined.

It can be said that there are so many big names gathered here that it is dizzying.

"The box office of "Hearing Girl" is so high, I am so envious of Brother Hu."

Huang Xiaoming, dressed in a suit and tie, came to greet Zhou Qing enthusiastically, but after a few words he became envious and jealous.

It's not just him, who in the entire circle doesn't envy Brother Hu now?
Golden Lion Award + box office exceeding 100 million, isn’t this movie too explosive?
Although Hu Ge’s “Legend of Sword and Fairy” was very popular and made Hu Ge’s popularity soar, but before that, Hu Ge was at most a second-tier star.

It's just a temporary surge.

If you can't keep the heat going, it will fall off soon.

But with the popularity of "The Hearing Girl", wow.

Brother Hu’s net worth skyrocketed, and he became extremely popular, and it was out of control!
This is the terrifying strength of Zhou Qing, a top mainland director.

It would be a lie if Huang Xiaoming said he wasn't jealous.

The same goes for Shu Chang.

The other party was also very popular with "The Lotus Lantern" and "The Hearing Girl".

How many actresses in the circle are envious of this?

"Brother Xiao Ming, your movie "The Banquet" will surely do well at the box office."

Zhou Qing waved his hand and smiled.

Even though "The Banquet" was far below expectations, it still grossed over 100 million yuan.

It is still an achievement that most other movies cannot achieve.

These days, when a movie grosses over 100 million yuan, it’s really a lot of weight.

"Then I'll lend you some good advice."

When mentioning this, Huang Xiaoming was in a good mood.

Frankly speaking, he is actually very optimistic about "The Banquet".

Although Feng Xiaogang has not won any awards among the major mainland directors, his box office results have always been explosive.

"A World Without Thieves" was able to break 100 million with an investment of 30 million, and it goes without saying that the cast of "Night Banquet" has been comprehensively upgraded.

Not only is the investment much greater than that of "A World Without Thieves", there are also many more big-name stars!

Feng Xiaogang has never concealed his ambition for "Night Banquet", he is aiming for a box office of 200 million.

"There are too many people coming to your celebration party, right?"

Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli came together to show their support. Both mother and daughter were dressed up and looked very eye-catching.

"This is how it is in this business. If I fail one day, do you think anyone will care about me?"

Zhou Qing took it lightly and shrugged nonchalantly.

"Pah, pah, pah, what are you talking about? How can you talk like that?"

Liu Yifei almost covered Zhou Qing's mouth with her hands, but she stopped herself considering that it was a public occasion.

But he still glared at Zhou Qing.

"I'm just giving an example. Don't worry, I won't fail."

Zhou Qing smiled, with an indescribable confidence in his words.

It’s not that Zhou Qing is pretending to be cool, I’m actually a cool guy.

If the configuration of the reborn + the cheater can still fail, Zhou Qing might as well buy a piece of tofu and kill himself.

"Guess who I am?"

The two chatted for a while, and Shu Chang suddenly sneaked behind Liu Yifei and covered her eyes.

"Sing, are you childish?"

Liu Yifei slapped Shu Chang's hand away speechlessly.

The two girls started laughing and making a lot of noise.

"Both are pretty childish."

Zhou Qing shook his head and chuckled.

"Director Zhou."

"Mr. Lu."

Mr. Lu, who was very excited, also attended the celebration banquet.

But this time Lu didn't come alone, there was a girl with him.

A beautiful girl who looks sweet and rich: Jing. "Director Zhou, let me introduce you to Jing. She is planning to debut this year and enter the film and television industry. Director Zhou, please support her."

After the two sides chatted for a while, Mr. Lu began to formally introduce Jing to Zhou Qing.

"Hello, Director Zhou. I'm Jing. Director Zhou is a director I respect and admire very much. I'm so happy to meet Director Zhou today."

Jing immediately greeted Zhou Qing politely, but it could be seen that he was still a little nervous.

After all, no matter what, the young man standing in front of her is the top director in the industry.

A great director who is on par with Master Zhang.

"Hello."

Zhou Qing smiled and nodded slightly towards the scenic spot.

"Director Zhou, to be honest, I plan to make a movie tailor-made for Jing this year. I wonder if Director Zhou has any good suggestions?"

Mr. Lu exchanged pleasantries with Zhou Qing again, then he straightened his face and mentioned this matter to Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing subconsciously glanced at the scenery on the side.

As far as I can remember, Jing did make his debut this year.

Not only did he star in a movie called "Anaconda", he also released an EP.

It was produced by Zhang Yadong, one of the top musicians in the industry, and even the MV was directed by Ning Hao.

This move is really too cool.

"Jing's personal image is still very good, but considering that Jing has little acting experience, Mr. Lu should not give her an overly complicated role at the beginning. It should be as simple as possible to fit Jing's image..."

Zhou Qing just talked about it in general terms, without any depth, just clichés.

But even so, Jing stared at Zhou Qing with eyes wide open without blinking, listening attentively.

This was the advice given to her by a famous director from the mainland, and Jing was very excited.

"Director Zhou, I wonder if you could write a script for Jing?"

Mr. Lu exchanged pleasantries with Zhou Qing again and then made this request to him.

In fact, according to Mr. Lu, he was planning to invite Zhou Qing to be the director.

But in the end, I still couldn't open that mouth.

After all, Mr. Lu knew that such a thing was basically impossible.

But Director Zhou Qing is different from other directors. He can not only direct, but also write scripts!
Moreover, all the scripts he wrote are of excellent quality and have received rave reviews.

That's why Mr. Lu had to settle for the next best thing and asked Zhou Qing for the script.

If Zhou Qing was willing to write a script for Jing, it would definitely be a very explosive start for Jing.

It will definitely be a hit.

"Mr. Lu, I have to shoot Painted Skin this year and have a lot of work to do. I'm afraid I don't have the time."

Zhou Qing refused without even thinking about it.

As a famous director in mainland China, he would not promote others just for a little money.

It's really too low-class.

The scenery is inevitably a little lost.

How could she not be moved by Director Zhou’s script?
But unfortunately, Director Zhou refused.

Mr. Lu was not surprised by this, and his expression did not change.

He continued to greet Zhou Qing with a smile.

"Don't be discouraged. How could a director like Director Zhou write a script for someone else?"

"I guessed from the beginning that Director Zhou would not agree, but don't worry, I will arrange it."

"Your first film, I will make it a masterpiece."

After parting with Zhou Qing, Mr. Lu spoke to Jing earnestly.

"I understand, Uncle Lu."

Jing nodded repeatedly, but still subconsciously glanced in Zhou Qing's direction.

There was indescribable envy and longing in his eyes.

When will I be able to work with a director of Director Zhou's level?

That seems a bit far-fetched.

"Aoko!"

"Brother!"

Under Jing's gaze, another famous director in the circle walked up to Zhou Qing.

He chatted and laughed with Zhou Qing very familiarly.

It was Ning Hao, who became famous through "Crazy Stone".

"I knew your movie would make over 100 million sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to be so quick. You guys should leave us some room for survival."

Ning Hao and Zhou Qing have a special relationship, and they start by making sour jokes.

If it’s not sour, it’s fake.

Nowadays, every director doesn’t want to make over 100 million yuan.
Of course Ning Hao wanted to too.

"Brother, what you said is true. You will soon break 100 million."

Zhou Qing said to Ning Hao with a smile.

That was definitely not a lie to Ning Hao. If he had not been reborn, the fourth director to enter the billion-dollar club would be Ning Hao.

And this was achieved through a starless movie like "Crazy Racing".

The strength is naturally beyond doubt.

"I don't dare to think about it. I'm not a great director."

Ning Hao shook his head. Although his words sounded humble, there was a gleam in his eyes.

In fact, he is also full of energy and wants to give it a try and challenge himself.

However, Ning Hao also understood that it might not be that easy for him to achieve his goal, and he didn't know when it could be accomplished.

Not to mention anything else, Ning Hao can’t find any good scripts now, let alone box office success.

"Have you finished writing the script you told me about before?"

After the two sides chatted for a while, Ning Hao asked about this matter with great anticipation.

"How can I have the time these days? I have to wait until I finish filming Painted Skin at least."

Zhou Qing shook his head and told Ning Hao the actual situation.

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Ning Hao nodded, indicating that he understood what was going on.

"Director Zhou Qing held a celebration party for "Hearing Girl". Hu Ge and Shu Chang and other main creators were present. Zhou Xun, Li Bingbing and other stars showed up to support the event."

"Director Zhou Qing's "Hearing Girl" achieved a box office of 1.34 million yuan. At the celebration party, Director Zhou shared the stories behind the scenes."

"Many stars appeared at the celebration party of "Hearing Girl", and director Zhou Qing revealed the filming plan of "Painted Skin"."

The celebration banquet was also very popular, but Zhou Qing couldn't take care of it.

Now that "Painted Skin" is about to start filming, as a director, he has to keep an eye on every aspect.

However, before joining the team, Zhou Qing called Director Chen over and asked him about something.

"Did any good talents emerge from the Yahu Star Search event?"

"Director Zhou, this event has just begun, and there are still many contestants who have not yet come out. I have temporarily counted the ones with relatively high votes and good qualifications. Please take a look."

Director Chen then handed Zhou Qing some lists and information that had been sorted out long ago.

Zhou Qing took a quick glance and didn't see Zhao Liying.

He knew it in his mind, it seemed that Zhao Liying had not appeared yet.

"Keep staring."

Zhou Qing returned the information to Director Chen and gave him some casual instructions.

"Understood, Director Zhou."

Director Chen responded and left.

Zhou Qing no longer paid attention to Yahu's star search and continued to be busy with matters related to Painted Skin. (End of this chapter)
