How influential is a movie with a global box office of more than 10 billion dragon coins?

Although Dong Yanling, the strategic director of Byte Entertainment, has been psychologically prepared, when the preparation for the "The Wandering Earth 2" film project began, the storm in the domestic film and television circle still caught her off guard.

Not to mention those second-tier and third-tier artists, many first-line big-name actors, producers, directors, etc. began to take the initiative to contact Dong Yanling.

Some of these characters, even in her capacity as the strategic director of Byte Entertainment, have to be treated with a flat attitude.

"Hey, is it Miss Dong?

I'm Jiang Wen, and I happened to have time recently, and I wanted to go to the set of "The Wandering Earth 2" to feel the shooting atmosphere of a large-scale industrial science fiction film.

It would be better if I had the opportunity to play a role or something!

What? The cast and crew have already been decided?

It's okay, it's okay, I'll go in and make a cameo!" Hearing

the voice on the phone, Dong Yanling couldn't help but have a headache, Jiang Wen is not only a famous director and actor in China, but also a famous 'Beijing circle' bigwig, and has a lot of status in the film and television circle.

Before she could figure out what to do, she received calls from several big-name actresses in person.

"Sister Dong, I'm a sheep honey, I heard that the heroine of "The Wandering Earth 2" has not yet been decided?

If you think it's appropriate, don't forget to help me recommend it to Director Liu!

"Miss Sheep, I can't give you a ticket for the heroine of "Wandering 2", harm, Director Liu Lang himself is very strict, and he has always had the final say on the selection of the protagonist and supporting roles.

I will mention it to Director Liu Lang here, as for whether it is suitable or not, it depends on his thoughts.

After hanging up the phone, Dong Yanling shook her head for a while.

When she was changed to the first part of "The Wandering Earth", if there was a big-name traffic actress with a coffee position like Yang Mi to join, she would definitely help Liu Lang agree without thinking about it.

But now is different from the past, the success of the first part of "The Wandering Earth" made Dong Yanling see Liu Lang's ability to control the whole movie.

In order to avoid doing bad things with good intentions, it is impossible for Dong Yanling to interfere in the choice of the protagonist and supporting roles in the second movie.

It's no longer the time to beg others, and after the first word-of-mouth started, some big-name movie stars were willing to join.

It's easy to do a small role like Jiang Wen who is willing to play a cameo, just a small role like a gangster leader, a rebel, or an engineer can be dismissed.

But when it comes to the main actors, Liu Lang has to make his own decisions.

As for why a domestic first-line traffic actress like Yang Mi is willing to put down her figure and call to recommend herself, Dong Yanling can also guess it.

The impact of this incident on the domestic film and television industry is tantamount to a ten-magnitude earthquake

, which has a great impact! Top traffic actor + famous director + best-selling novel adaptation script + big investment, which was originally a combination of a hundred trials and tried, actually encountered an unprecedented Waterloo.

This has made investors in the domestic film and television industry begin to examine the value of traffic stars.

In the past, the audience had no choice, so they could only be forced to watch it in a bunch of traffic film markets like panning for gold.

This makes investors and industry practitioners think that it is the traffic stars who have contributed to the false prosperity in the film and television industry.

But when the well-made industrial sci-fi film "The Wandering Earth", which did not rely on traffic stars, appeared, the audience voted with their feet, completely exposing the false and obviously excessive value of traffic stars.

The premium of traffic stars has been greatly reduced, and it is no longer the grand occasion it used to be.

As a top domestic traffic actress, Yang Mi naturally noticed the changes in the market.

In the past, those scripts with tens of millions of salaries at every turn, investors lined up and licked their faces and begged to shoot themselves.

I won't pay attention to a single script with a salary of less than 50 million.

However, with the rout of "Demon City Fortress", traffic stars were instantly given a cold reception in the domestic film market.

Since the beginning of the Spring Festival, it has been half a year now, not to mention movie scripts with a salary of more than 50 million, and there are not even a few that have reached 10 million.

After the blow of "Magic City Fortress", the market value of the top traffic male star completely collapsed, and there is almost no possibility of turning over.

herself, a top traffic actress, also suffered from the pond fish, and the market value assessment was greatly reduced.

So Yang Mi had to put down her body and look for an opportunity to turn over as soon as possible.

Traffic stars have become a determinative term in the industry for a while, and if you want to turn over, you have to change from 'traffic school' to 'acting school' as soon as possible.

But this is definitely not something that can be done overnight, and the quickest way is to cooperate with Liu Lang, the director of "The Wandering Earth".

Originally, the heroine of the first part of "The Wandering Earth", which she couldn't look at, was picked up by a third- or fourth-tier actor Wang Zhi, and relying on the popularity of the movie, her worth increased dozens of times, and she was close to the domestic quasi-first-line actress.

This makes the fierce competition of domestic actresses very hot.

The top traffic actress made a move, and other actresses who felt that they had hope were not idle.

Dong Yanling soon received a self-recommendation from another big-name actress.

Zhang Ziyi, since her debut, has won numerous awards at home and abroad, and is one of the few actresses in China with high reputation in the world.

After receiving her self-recommendation, Dong Yanling was a little surprised for a while, but soon understood.

What the other party values is the influence of "The Wandering Earth" overseas.

In the category of commercial films, "The Wandering Earth" can be said to be the highest-grossing domestic film in the international market.

The heated discussion and movie-watching boom it has caused in the foreign film market have made many domestic big-name movie stars who want to get involved in the foreign film market quite hot.

Zhang Ziyi is one of them, since her debut, she has won all kinds of awards, and she can't look down on the domestic market to be honest.

If she wants to achieve further growth in her career, a broader overseas market is her next goal.

However, Dong Yanling still didn't give the other party an exact reply, but the reply would help her inform Director Liu Lang.

There are a lot of weight on the female star's side, and there are also a lot of male stars.

However, Wu Jin, who played 'Liu Peiqiang' at the end of the first part, did not sacrifice, and the official publicity of the movie also hinted that the male protagonist would have actors from the first part.

Therefore, many big-name male stars have given up the idea of competing for the leading actor.

However, many second- and third-tier male stars of all ages are trying their best to find relationships from various channels to enter the crew of "The Wandering Earth 2".

The protagonists don't have extravagant expectations, and it's enough to be satisfied with being able to get a supporting role.

is like Sha Yi, who played the role of 'the protagonist Liu Peiqiang's master Zhang Peng' in the first part, just with this supporting role, he has successfully gained a firm foothold on the big screen of the movie as a TV series actor.
