Chapter 556 Someone in the Court, Pay a Visit

A person stands alone in the falling flowers, and swallows fly in pairs in the light rain.

It rained lightly in Beijing last night.

The first rays of morning light after the rain were very warm.

But they could not warm the bed of three people.

Zhou Yutang removed the white arm of Reba that was resting on his shoulder.

He also removed Nazha's long legs from his waist.

At the celebration banquet last night, the sisters from Northern Xinjiang reached a consensus on cooperation under external pressure and became a team.

Both exerted their strength and were impeccable.

Even the powerful teacher Fan returned home in defeat and returned to Nazha's home, but the governor of Jiangdong enjoyed the blessing of having many wives.

"Brother, do you have anything to do today?"

Nazha had just woken up, and her voice was particularly soft.

Reba, who was on the side, was still hiding in the quilt pretending to sleep.

Nazha had the advantage of home court, so Reba was willing to give in.

But she listened to the noise next door, tossed and turned, and did not fall asleep until after one o'clock.

Then Zhou Yutang went to the wrong room in the middle of the night, and Nazha followed him somehow.

"There is a meeting in the morning, and there are several important documents to sign. You should have a good rest."

Zhou Yutang was affectionate with Nazha for a while, got up, put on clothes, and left without eating breakfast.

"Reba, stop pretending, you woke up early."

"Ah? I'm so sleepy." Reba yawned.

"What are your plans for today?"

"Too tired."

Reba didn't move in the quilt: "I don't want to do anything now, I just want to lie down."

During this period of high-load roadshow promotion, she was tossed for half a night yesterday.

As experienced as she is, she can't stand it.

"It's really tiring, then why did you scream so loudly last night."

"You want to die."

Reba thought of something, her face turned red, and she pinched Nazha's leg lightly.

"Baby, I'll hold you to sleep."

"Don't touch me!"

...

When I returned to the company, I found that the faces of the employees were filled with joyful smiles.

The 40-episode "Reply 1988" finally came to an end, with an average viewership rating of 2.38. Many viewers felt a sense of loss.

This drama is not very melodramatic. It seems bland at first, but the more you watch it, the more you become more and more engaged, as if it takes you back to the red era worth remembering.

"The best of the year, full of details, the story of the neighbors and relatives in the alley is really addictive, I want to watch it again on Bilibili."

"What I remember most is the plot of the heroine's father, which is really touching."

"Some people say that Liu Shishi's acting is not good, I think she acted very well."

"Thank you Zhou Yutang for giving me a wonderful time chasing dramas."

"The ending is a good one. I will watch "Mojin: The Lost Legend" three times to contribute more box office to Zhou Yutang."

So far, Douban has more than 100,000 people who have rated it.

The score is as high as 9.6, which is undoubtedly a great drama at the beginning of the year.

The TV drama business department led by Jiang Xue can be said to be in high spirits recently.

CCTV's opening drama "In the Name of the People" is a phenomenal hit, and now "Reply 1988" has an even better reputation.

Other companies are still making plans for this year, but Jiangdong Entertainment's TV drama department has already completed its annual performance indicators.

"Mr. Zhou, CCTV has received the first share of Renyi." Jiang Xuehui reported.

"So fast?"

Zhou Yutang was a little surprised.

In terms of the cooperative relationship between the producer and the TV station, the TV station is the boss, and CCTV is the boss's boss.

According to the regulations in the system, various procedures must be followed, and sometimes it is normal to wait for several years.

"The director said that it was a pleasure to cooperate with you, and hoped to have the opportunity to continue cooperation next time..."

Zhou Yutang took the report from Jiang Xuehui and took a look.

The phenomenal hit TV series are really money-making beasts. In terms of money-making ability, they are not worse than blockbuster movies.

"The post-production of "Gu Jian Qi Tan" is completed. You have to go and see it when the time comes."

"In addition, the screenings of "Gu Jian Qi Tan", "The Best of Us" and "Love O2O" are all scheduled for the 7th of next month, and they will be held by first-tier TV stations such as Jiangsu Province, Shanghai, Mango, Blue Channel, and Anhui Province."

"Well, you can arrange it."

Zhou Yutang turned the pen leisurely and nodded slightly.

Other film and television companies may worry about selling dramas, but Jiangdong's new drama is a fat piece of meat in the eyes of first- and second-tier TV stations in China.

Even as early as the beginning of the project, several directors of the film purchasing departments of TV stations with familiar relationships came to build relationships.

Jiangdong's products must be high-quality. Who doesn't want to master the ratings code?

The matter of the film screening was handed over to Jiang Xuehuan. With her ability, she can handle it on her own.

"Let me say a few words."

Zhou Yutang stood up and opened the PPT made by Ni Ni. The senior executives of the TV series department in the conference room immediately looked at the projection screen attentively.

"The second season of "Celebrating Yu Nian" has been almost prepared and is expected to start filming in the first half of the year."

"Dilraba Dilmurat will play the heroine in "Pretty Li Huizhen."

"I hope everyone will cheer up. These two projects in the first half of the year are very critical. There is also a drama in the second half of the year in cooperation with Noon Sunshine."

"The meeting is adjourned."

Zhou Yutang didn't say much. He attended the seminar himself and was most annoyed by the leaders' boasting.

I believe that no employee likes to listen to the boss giving him chicken soup and painting pie in the sky.

"Boss Hou, our boss meeting is over."

Ni Ni received a call and said to Hou Hongliang beside her with a slight turn.

When Hou Hongliang came to Jiangdong Building, Zhou Yutang was in a meeting, so he asked Ni Ni to take him around.

Hou was born in Shanying, and his business ability is beyond doubt. After walking around Jiangdong Building, his attention was all on Vision Media.

Even he, a veteran who has been in the industry for decades, felt that his eyes were brightened, both novel and shocking.

It can be seen that Zhou Yutang has spent a lot of effort on Vision Media.

This is a complete system cultivated with time and money, and it is currently unique in China.

"Director Zhou, I just went to Vision Media and it was really eye-opening."

"Mr. Hou praised me so much that I am embarrassed. There is still a lot of room for improvement."

"The filming of "Mojin" is so good, and the behind-the-scenes work is indispensable."

Hou Hongliang entered the office and tasted the fragrant tea served by Ni Ni, with emotion.

Since the beginning of the year, several film and television works have dominated the big and small screens.

In the huge entertainment industry, there is no one more popular than Zhou Yutang.

He sat there calmly, with a beautiful woman beside him, and his demeanor remained calm.

Noon Sunshine has become well-known now, and Hou Hongliang has a lot of things to do, so of course he didn't come to Zhou Yutang specifically for tea and greetings.

"Director Zhou."

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Hou Hongliang asked directly: "I heard that "Ghost Blows Out the Light" and "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" will be made into a series of TV series?"

"Yes, Mr. Hou is interested?"

"I have discussed it with Lao Kong and others before coming here."

Hou Hongliang leaned forward slightly and said with great interest: "Ghost Blows Out the Light" is very suitable for the model of seasonal dramas."

"The company just happened to have plans to make a tomb-robbing drama."

Listening to him talking freely, it really did do research. Zhou Yutang chuckled and said: "Then the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series will be handed over to Noon Sunshine, but the focus of this year's work is still on "Celebrating Yu Nian 2". We have to coordinate Director Kong's schedule in advance."

"No problem."

Hou Hongliang agreed very readily. After signing the contract for "Celebrating Yu Nian 2", he strode out of the Jiangdong Building.

There was also a faint smile on his face.

This drama is jointly produced by Jiangdong Entertainment and Noon Sunshine.

Jiangdong Entertainment's official website has launched an online reservation for "Celebrating Yu Nian 2", and the number of reservations has now exceeded 5 million.

As a popular figure in the domestic entertainment industry, Zhou Yutang's appeal is also unique.

The preparations for this S+ project have now entered the final stage and will be launched soon.

The "Ghost Blowing Light" series is also a project that Hou Hongliang is very optimistic about. Since Zhou Yutang has nodded, this project will most likely fall on Noon Sunshine.

Hou Hongliang feels that the contract in his hand is heavy.

It's like holding a mountain of gold.

This S+ project with Zhou Yutang's participation is enough to double Noon Sunshine's benefits next year.

Although a certain amount of shares have been paid, it is worth it to be able to board the big ship of Jiangdong Entertainment.

The key is that Zhou Yutang has not yet made any comments on the company's operations, and Hou Hongliang feels that it is not a loss at all.

If there were no resources from the Jiangdong system to help, Noon Sunshine would still be fighting alone and would definitely not make so much money.

A few years ago, a phenomenally popular movie "In the Name of People" made Zhou Yutang hold several seminars.

This time, it was "The Lost Tomb", and he had to attend the meeting to summarize the successful experience.

Zhou Yutang had a headache just thinking about it, but Director Tong personally called to invite him, so he had to give face.

The leaders, the bosses of the film and television companies in the circle, and several famous directors were all there, but Zhou Yutang was naturally the protagonist of the seminar.

When the seminar was over, Section Chief Jia came up.

Seeing that he seemed to have something to say, Zhou Yutang took him to Zeng Li's teahouse.

The environment there was quiet, and it was a good place to chat about things. Watching the beautiful waitress in cheongsam performing the tea ceremony was really pleasing to the eye.

"Yu Tang, has "Red Ling" been sent to Cannes?"

"Yes, it has been reported."

Zhou Yu Tang raised his teacup and took a sip: "Director Jia, I heard that you are busy with the art cinema recently. How is it going?"

This Section Chief Jia became famous in his early years and has been deeply involved in the field of art films. He is also an iconic figure of the sixth generation of directors.

In the past two years, he has used his influence to attract bosses to invest in building a cinema dedicated to supporting the screening of art films.

"It's still under renovation, just between the fourth and fifth ring roads east of Beijing. Come and guide the work when you have time. There are about 100 seats. Compared with your boss Zhou, it's just a small matter."

"It's still meaningful."

Zhou Yutang asked with a smile: "How is the review of that movie going?"

"That's what I came to you to talk about."

Chief Jia put down his teacup and sighed: "I've been running around for so long and have used so many connections. They all said there was no problem, but it hasn't been reviewed yet. I went to the bureau to communicate several times, and they all said that we need to hold a meeting to discuss it again, and then go through the process."

As for his "Sentiment", he was doing post-production at Vision Media at the time. Zhou Yutang also watched the finished film and won the Best Screenwriter Award at the Cannes Film Festival last year.

Later, I heard that there were problems with the review, and Chief Jia had been actively communicating with the bureau, and occasionally complained when they met and chatted.

But I didn't expect it to be so difficult for him. Zhou Yutang listened patiently to Chief Jia's confession and felt the frustration of a middle-aged man.

"There's really no other way. If the film continues to be banned from theaters, I won't be able to explain myself to those bosses."

Chief Jia reluctantly explained his purpose: "Yu Tang, Lu Ziye, can you help us report this to the leader?"

Now everyone in the industry knows that Zhou Yutang has a close relationship with the above. He can pass the review of a large-scale drama such as "In the Name of the People", and he has just won a project at the Six Doors Headquarters.

"I can't guarantee it, but I can ask for you."

"Thank you so much."

Section Chief Jia was relieved, held his hand and shook it hard, with a look of gratitude on his face: "I want an answer after it's been delayed for so long."

After chatting with Section Chief Jia for a while in the tea room, the two of them separated due to other matters.

"Boss, do you really want to help me with this?"

On the way to China Film Academy, Ni Ni was hesitant to speak next to her, but finally spoke: "This doesn't seem to be of any benefit to you."

"I have enough benefits."

Zhou Yutang smiled casually: "It's not bad to do silly things occasionally."

Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world.

He has made his mark in the entertainment industry, so he is definitely not poor, but he is not in a position to help the world at the same time.

However, if a friend asks for something and I have the ability to help, I will naturally try my best to do it. It is just a matter of a few phone calls.

Besides, this movie was shot really well, it’s a pity that the audience can’t see it.

Zhou Yutang has dealt with Han Sanping a lot in the past, and is no stranger to the office of the chairman of China Film Group.

It's just that this La Pei Kang is a little different from Han Sanping's vigorous and resolute way of doing things.

The decoration of this office is also suitable for the person, and it seems to be somewhat elegant and elegant.

"La Dong, let's put "Maze of the Heart" in March."

After scanning the movie schedule report, Zhou Yutang first arranged the schedule for the movie directed by Jin Yukun, and then began to ask about Section Chief Jia.

"Did you invest money?"

La Peikang raised his teacup and took a sip.

"That's not true."

Zhou Yutang chuckled and said: "La Dong, this film is good. I also participated in part of the post-production. Isn't the tone set above encouraging diverse types of creation? The theme of this film is anti-violence, which is very realistic and educational."

La Pei Kang nodded in a dignified manner: "I'll ask you, it will take some time."

Within a few days, La Dong had more specific news, and Zhou Yutang passed on the guidance to Section Chief Jia.

The theme of the movie is defined as anti-violence, and the bad guys in it must get the punishment they deserve.

This is actually quite reasonable. Movies have a certain guiding role in reality. They cannot be purely for the sake of art. They must be modified as appropriate based on the overall situation.

Chief Jia seems to know what it means to have someone in the court who can do things easily.

If it were him, let alone a year, even if he waited another two or three years, he might not be able to pass the trial.

Ning Hao's "No Man's Land" is a lesson learned from the past. He has a deeper understanding of Zhou Yutang's terrifying connections, and his words are filled with sincere gratitude: "Yu Tang, when you are free, I will treat you to dinner."

"Forget about eating, I have to go to America in two days."

There are many people who want to invite Zhou Yutang to dinner.

Especially artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan, who want to enter domestic entertainment, are trying their best to find relationships with Zhou Yutang.

If you want to eat well, how can you not go to the pier which is the leader in internal entertainment?

Liu Shishi, who came to attend a meeting with the crew of "The Tuner" that day, stayed at Yin Shi Xiaozhu that night.

Just as he was contentedly finding a comfortable position to lie in Zhou Yutang's arms and watch TV, a call came in. Zhou Yutang picked it up and looked at it, feeling a little surprised.

"Hey, Director Zhou, I'm Wu Qilong."

"It's Uncle Wu, is there something wrong?"

"Pfft haha."

When Liu Shishi heard him shouting like this, he couldn't help laughing on the spot.

He even slapped Zhou Yutang gently, but he was considerate and turned down the TV volume.

"."

There was silence for a few seconds before Wu Qilong continued to speak. It was just to make a dinner date and connect with each other.

After hanging up after a few words, Liu Shishi was a little curious: "Dear, why did Wu Qilong invite you to dinner?"

"I guess I want to hug my thigh."

Since the collaboration in "Those Years", the two have had little interaction.

Zhou Yutang's career took off, domestic entertainment soared, and Wu Qilong was also busy robbing the Japanese of their money in various anti-war dramas.

I don’t know how I got connected with Moon Entertainment recently, and I jointly opened a company in Beijing. I want to make it bigger and stronger.

"Then do you want to have dinner with Uncle Wu?"

"I won't eat anymore. Uncle Wu has taken over the Moon Entertainment business, so it's better not to get involved."

Zhou Yutang combed his fingers through Liu Shishi's soft and fragrant hair in his arms.

It was rare that a sister was interested in running the company, so he talked more about it.

All relations.

They are all based on resource equality and providing mutual value.

The resources Uncle Wu has at his disposal are somewhat unsatisfactory.
