Entertainment: I really want to make progress

Chapter 90 Boss, affectionate, corner



After a short break in the background, the song continues.

During this time, the beautiful female host in a short skirt and black stockings and high heels was controlling the scene at the front desk.

It is mainly a lottery activity.

Every fan who enters the venue is given a small card with a number on it.

Huang Xiaoming took a break and selected a few lucky audience members to continue on stage to interact with Huang Xiaoming during the song.

Then we played small games such as song solitaire, and then gave Huang Xiaoming’s signed album and some cute dolls and other small gifts.

The beautiful female fans were very lucky. After receiving Brother Xiao Ming's signed album, they also received a loving hug from the leader of the Ming Cult.

The activity proceeds to the next stage.

The beautiful female host took the microphone and teased the audience: "Brother Xiao Ming, I heard that your most popular new song was written for you by a good friend of yours."

"Yes, everyone knows that my good brother Zhou Yutang is very talented. He wrote this song specially for me."

Huang Xiaoming held the microphone in his hand with a calm smile on his face.

"Wow! Everyone knows that Zhou Yutang is a popular Internet writer and a very talented creative music talent. The songs "Those Years" and "Tomorrow, Love You" that he created not long ago are also his songs, and they are both very nice. This song has been on repeat for a long time."

The female host had prepared the information in advance, but she still showed a surprised expression in a professional manner and started a rainbow fart:

"Many viewers may not know that Xiao Ming's good brother is also a school idol of the Beijing Film Academy. He starred in a TV series at the beginning of this year and became popular immediately. Does anyone know his name?"

"want to see you!"

She pointed the microphone at the audience, and Mingjiao fans were also very proud of her, shouting like a mountain and a tsunami.

The main Mingjiao fan group is young people, and Zhou Yutang's "Want to See You" is still very famous among young people.

"That's right."

The beautiful female host patted her plump breasts and said in a pinched voice: "To be honest, I just saw him in person backstage. He is really handsome."

"I didn't expect you to be a fan of Ah Tang. He is really handsome."

Huang Xiaoming nodded slightly, and then said with a decent smile: "I just received news from him in the afternoon. He said he would come to the singing concert today. Now we invite him to come out and say hello to everyone."

The rainbow fart is over, and Zhou Yutang makes a shining appearance.

He stepped onto the stage in a few steps, took the microphone handed over by the glamorous host, and waved around naturally.

The eyes of female fans on several floors of the event lit up.

Accompanied by a burst of exclamation.

This young man has a tall and tall figure, like a walking clothes rack, with clear and cold cheek lines, and deep and gentle eyes.

It's so handsome that people can't close their legs.

Naturally, there were some who didn't know Zhou Yutang, but after listening to the excited introductions from the friends around him, they immediately understood.

This handsome guy is also a good friend of Xiao Ming.

That's great. Since he is one of Mingjiao's own and he is so handsome, we also support him.

A group of female fans raised their cameras and DVs to take pictures of Zhou Yutang.

"Hello everyone, I am Zhou Yutang. I am Brother Xiao Ming's friend and also his fan. I came to Brother Xiao Ming's concert today mainly to ask Brother Xiao Ming to give me an autograph."

When Zhou Yutang took the stage, he held an "IT'S MING" album that he had prepared in advance and waved it toward the audience.

Today is Huang Xiaoming's concert, mainly to promote his new album.

Zhou Yutang was a guest, so naturally he could not overshadow the guest. After a brief self-introduction, he cooperated with Huang Xiaoming to improve the program effect.

"I personally bought 100 albums and will give them to the lucky fans who are here today through a lottery later. I hope everyone will support Xiao Ming."

The response from Mingjiao fans in the audience was quite enthusiastic. Mainly because Zhou Yutang is one of his own, and with his good looks and figure, he is eye-catching, and his conversation is funny, making him stand out as a social hero.

Then I sat down with Huang Xiaoming and talked for a while about the experience of entering the music industry. Zhou Yutang sang "Those Years" and briefly promoted the movie "Those Years".

"This song reminds me of my lost youth."

Huang Xiaoming took the microphone and stood up to applaud: "Please support this movie when the time comes. I am personally very optimistic about Yu Tang's ability, and I am also looking forward to his youth movie."

"Just listening to the song makes me very moved."

"Brother Xiao Ming said, we must support it!"

"Zhou Yutang plays the leading role, he is a top campus male star."

"Damn, why haven't I discovered such a handsome treasure before?"

"I read the novel on his blog. It's a really emotional story."

The response from Mingjiao fans in the audience was also very good.

Huang Xiaoming rarely promotes other people's works in front of his own fans. Today, Zhou Yutang attracted a lot of attention from Mingjiao fans.

After these Mingjiao fans go back, some of them will post online, which will bring some attention to "Those Years".

activity ends.

Zhou Yutang met Huang Xiaoming backstage and realized that this brother was really busy.

The singing performance here has just ended, we have a dinner date tonight, and we have to fly directly to Xiangjiang tomorrow morning to attend another important event.

"Brother Xiao Ming, can you speak now?"

Zhou Yutang called the driver and took Huang Xiaoming's luxury business car directly to a private club at home.

"Chen Guofu."

Huang Xiaoming patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder: "Ah Tang, if you want to make a movie, you can talk to this person more. He is the boss of our film department in Huayi. He has rich experience and strong ability."

"Thank you, Brother Xiao Ming."

Zhou Yutang was slightly startled when he heard the name, but quickly came to his senses.

This is a real boss.

A native of Benzhou, he served as the director of the Asian production department of Columbia Pictures in 2000, responsible for the production and development of the company's Chinese-language films.

A few years ago, Mr. Wang of Huayi Company took action and recruited him to his subordinates to entrust him with important tasks. He became the film director of Huayi Brother Company.

When it comes to his status in the world, he can be compared with Feng Xiaogang, Huayi's number one director.

Moreover, as a producer, Chen Guofu is not like some film producers in the circle who often criticize empty words such as "the theme is a bit weak and the conflict is not sharp enough." He is a screenwriter and can often put forward very specific suggestions for the script from his own professional perspective. The opinion is quite sharp.

"I want to thank you for all this. The song you wrote has been well received. With a little work, I might even win an award."

Huang Xiaoming waved his hand and said with a smile: "Actually, Mr. Chen just wanted to see you, so I made a match and set up this bureau. Please pay attention when you see Mr. Chen later."

The two got out of the car, and Huang Xiaoming told Zhou Yutang some things to pay attention to.

soon.

The cheongsam girl led the way to an elegantly decorated small box.

Zhou Yutang met the industry-recognized number one producer of Chinese-language films.

Wearing a pair of black glasses and a black jacket with a stand-up collar, he looked like an ordinary middle-aged man.

However, some people cannot just take it at face value.

"Mr. Chen, I kept you waiting for a long time."

Huang Xiaoming smiled. He was very comfortable with this kind of occasion and introduced the two parties to each other.

"Xiao Ming, I'm sorry to help you."

Chen Guofu also stood up and shook hands with Zhou Yutang, "Hello, Zhou Yutang."

"Hello, I have long admired Mr. Chen."

Zhou Yutang has a very upright attitude, being humble and polite.

There was no politeness at all, we just greeted and served the food, and we sat down to eat and chat.

They were all talking about the film and television industry. Zhou Yutang occasionally asked a few questions for advice. Listening to Chen Guofu's analysis from his perspective, you could immediately feel his level.

No wonder the big and small kings always regard him as their confidant. Even crazy people like Xiaogangpao speak highly of Chen Guofu, saying that the real supervision system of mainland movies started with Chen Guofu.

Halfway through the meal, everyone became familiar with each other. Chen Guofu took the initiative and said, "Yu Tang, I want to ask you a favor."

"Mr. Chen, please tell me."

Zhou Yutang did not agree directly, leaving some room for himself: "If I can, I will definitely help."

The subtext is here too. If you open your mouth to embarrass me, there is nothing you can do.

"Is such that."

A smile appeared on Chen Guofu's face: "Liu Ruoying will hold a concert in Beijing next year. If possible, I hope you will be a guest at her concert."

"Next year?"

"Yes, March 1 next year."

Zhou Yutang was a little confused, but after being slightly stunned, he quickly recovered.

The relationship between Mr. Chen and the milk tea goddess seems to be unusual.

"Hey, Mr. Wang, what's going on?"

Chen Guofu was about to explain when he received a call from King Huayi. He nodded slightly to apologize, stood up and motioned to go out and answer the call.

"Brother Xiao Ming, is Mr. Chen related to Liu Ruoying?"

Zhou Yutang asked curiously. Huang Xiaoming nodded slightly and gave Zhou Yutang some knowledge about the boss's gossip.

As early as more than 10 years ago, Chen Guofu invited Liu Ruoying to star in the movie "My Beauty and Sorrow" because the cooperation between the two people developed their relationship from friends to lovers.

After that, Liu Ruoying frequently appeared in Chen Guofu's movies.

With "Marriage Notice" and "Two Eyes", she successively won the Asia-Pacific Best Actress and the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.

Even the heroine in "A World Without Thieves" chose Milk Tea as the heroine because of Chen Guofu's reputation.

The two have been in a relationship for more than ten years. They were infatuated with milk tea and even took the initiative to confess their love many times. Chen Guofu never responded directly.

But that doesn't mean he has no feelings for milk tea.

Some time ago, Milk Tea was interviewed by the media. The reporter asked her which concert guests she was looking forward to. Liu Ruoying mentioned Zhou Yutang's name and expressed her admiration for Zhou Yutang.

Then, there was the dinner tonight where Chen Guofu asked Huang Xiaoming to make an appointment with Zhou Yutang.

"Is that the reason?"

After hearing the whole story, Zhou Yutang choked up and felt a little emotional.

This boss is truly the most affectionate person in Huayi.

Just because of what Milk Cha said casually, she wanted to save her face by inviting Zhou Yutang to be her concert guest.

Zhou Yutang felt helpless when he thought that he had only met with Milk Tea: "Why do you keep asking me to be a guest recently? I am an actor and not a singer."

Huang Xiaoming shook his head and said with a smile: "Ah Tang, you don't know yourself clearly enough. You have been too outstanding recently. Now several songs are on the major music charts, and the media compares you with Jay Chou. Called Fortnight.”

Zhou Yutang's "Those Years" has been in the top ten of major music charts for more than a month. Jing Tian's "Hello Tomorrow" has become a hit and has successfully joined the top ten of the list not long ago.

This is not over yet, the song "Anything is OK" in Huang Xiaoming's new album is also Zhou Yutang's song.

This excellent song has also entered the new song charts of several music charts. With Huayi's support behind it, it is easy to reach the top ten of the charts.

The studio also received an order from Huayi a few days ago, asking Zhou Yutang to write a song for BOBO, a group that had just signed with Huayi, for any price. Zhou Yutang asked Sister Shuang to decline the offer. He really didn’t have time, and besides, with BOBO The combination is also unfamiliar.

With such a huge momentum, almost no one in the entire domestic entertainment world can achieve it.

Only Jay Chou, who released a new album in early November, can curb Zhou Yutang's momentum.

As soon as the song "Blue and White Porcelain" came out, it immediately dominated the major music charts and made all the singers lose their temper. The song "Rainbow" from the new album is also firmly in the top five of the major music charts.

The media compares Zhou Yutang with Jay Chou, but in fact there is no comparison.

The two are on different tracks.

Jay Chou is the king of the Chinese music scene who has been famous for many years. Chou Yutang's music aspect is purely for fun, and his main business is the film and television industry.

Just by accident, the character of this musical talent became more and more solid.

Taking advantage of Chen Guofu's absence, Huang Xiaoming said considerately: "Yu Tang, if you feel embarrassed, forget it, I will tell Mr. Chen."

"There's no problem on my end."

Zhou Yutang thought for a while and agreed readily.

Although he has been really busy recently and is expected to be even busier next year, there is no problem at all taking one night to be a guest at the concert.

Just think of it as a super large outdoor karaoke. Having had the experience of performing at Teacher Wu Bai’s concert, Zhou Yutang personally feels that it is quite a stress relief to come to this once in a while.

After the matter was settled, the smile on Chen Guofu's face became even brighter, and he had a good time chatting and laughing with Zhou Yutang, a rising star in the Beijing circle.

Coupled with Huang Xiaoming's involvement, the relationship between the two quickly became warm.

Zhou Yutang also admired this big man's ability.

He is recognized as the number one producer in the industry and he has real materials.

As we chatted, the topic went around and around, and the situation was almost settled, and we finally got to the point.

Chen Guofu crossed his fingers and asked with a smile: "Yu Tang, your studio has been very good recently. Is there a movie in post-production?"

"The fine cutting is almost done."

Zhou Yutang nodded and chatted with the boss about his experience.

The post-production of a film involves several procedures.

Rough cut, fine cut, color grading, special effects, soundtrack, finished film.

Every procedure has to be broken down, which is actually much more troublesome than shooting.

Zhou Yutang watched every step by himself, and learned a lot from the gold medal editor Du Yuan during this period.

Chen Guofu nodded and praised: "You are young and have a lot of potential."

He was also observing the young man in front of him. His conversation and behavior were neither humble nor arrogant. What was even more rare was that he seemed to have his own opinions on movies.

The evaluation of Zhou Yutang in my heart has also improved a level.

Huang Xiaoming praised: "Yu Tang has great ideas. He started his own studio right after the freshman year. I also worked on a project at that time and made a lot of money."

"It's mostly just luck."

Zhou Yutang said modestly: "This is just a small fuss. Compared with what Brother Chen has done, it is not worth mentioning."

"At this age, being able to do such a career is much better than what I was doing back then."

Chen Guofu said with emotion: "I used to be in the film and television industry in Benzhou. The first movie I made was also a youth-type movie called "Junior School Girls." The conditions were very difficult at that time."

"Actually, youth-type movies are very popular in Ben Province. I still have some connections there. I can help you ask when your movie comes out."

"Thank you, Brother Chen."

Zhou Yutang felt slightly happy.

This is reciprocating favors and reciprocating favors.

This big shot said, he estimated that "Those Years" will save a lot of trouble when it is released in Ben Province, and it will not be a loss.

Chen Guofu pushed up his glasses and said with a smile: "You are Xiao Ming's friend. You're welcome. If you need any help, just ask."

This boss seemed to like Zhou Yutang, and he had many suggestions in his words.

Perhaps it is also because the development trajectories of the two people are similar to some extent.

Chen Guofu started out as a screenwriter, and the first film he directed was a youth film.

Zhou Yutang also started out as a screenwriter, but his journey was smoother than him. The first youth TV series he wrote and starred in became a hit, followed by the youth films he wrote, directed and starred in.

"I'm very optimistic about this type of film. I'll go over and have a look at the trial screening of your film."

"Thank you very much, Brother Chen."

Chen Guofu's reputation as Mainland's No. 1 Producer is really not just a boast.

What impressed Zhou Yutang the most was the thriller movie "Twin Eyes", which was written, directed and supervised by Chen Guofu. It grossed nearly NT$40 million at the box office in Wan Province, becoming the annual box office champion of Wan Province movies that year. It set a box office record for the provincial thriller genre.

After switching to Huayi, the first project he worked on was "A World Without Thieves", which shows his ability.

After the dinner, Zhou Yutang took Huang Xiaoming's car back.

on the way.

The two of them chatted more casually, and they had a lot in common when it came to the development of the studio.

Huang Xiaoming is a superstar who enjoys privileges in Huayi. He has privately invested in a film and television company and is also making investments.

As soon as he mentioned the contracted artist, a shadow flashed in Zhou Yutang's mind and he said: "Brother Xiao Ming, I have something to ask you for help."

"What's wrong?"

Huang Xiaoming became interested.

"She's a female artist from Huayi. She had a supporting role in my movie. She's a pretty good girl. She hasn't been able to act in Huayi recently. I want to sign her here."

"What is your name?"

"Zhao Liying."

"Have not heard."

Huang Xiaoming thought for a while, then turned to ask his agent: "Does the company have such a person?"

Zhou Yutang couldn't help but chuckle when he saw his confused look.

Suddenly I remembered a joke Li Hao said.

Zhu Yawen became popular because of "Crossing Guandong". Mr. Wang felt that this young man had great potential and wanted to sign him, but he found out that he was his own artist.

Just like Miss Zhao, she has no background and no support. In Huayi Company, it means that her grandma doesn't care about her uncle and she doesn't love her. It's normal that Huang Xiaoming doesn't know her.

Zhou Yutang chatted with Shi Shi last night. She also mentioned her good sister Xiao Zhao, saying that this girl is very pitiful. After "Those Years" was completed, she had no filming and spent all day at home picking her feet.

In addition, Sister Shuang often talked about the need for potential newcomers in order to develop the studio, so Zhou Yutang started to think of poaching.

Zhao Liying was not popular in Huayi anyway, so she might as well shine in Jiangdong Studio.
