Is it reasonable for me to build a space elevator when filming The Wandering Earth?

The role of the rebel leader in the plot needs to be played by an actor with 'camera persuasion'.

The so-called 'camera persuasion' means that as long as the actor is standing there and appearing in the film shot.

Even if he didn't say a word, the audience would bring in the role played by the actor, believing that the other party should be a real rebel leader.

And Jiang Wen, as an experienced actor who has been famous for a long time, undoubtedly has this kind of 'lens persuasion'.

At any stop, the audience can feel his gangsterism.

Even if you change into a military and police uniform, everyone will subconsciously think that Jiang Wen is an undercover agent.

His temperament and past film and television experience almost made him the most suitable actor in the domestic film and television industry to play this 'rebel leader'.

Liu Lang naturally couldn't let go of this opportunity, as for the scene of a cameo role, he almost caught up with an important supporting role, which is not a matter at all in Liu Lang's opinion.

In the first part of "The Wandering Earth", Wu Jin was also fooled like this.

This time in "Wandering 2" is better, Jiang Wen can be regarded as 'self-throwing'.

The filming progress of "Wandering 2" is not fast, which has a lot to do with the crew's excellence.

Just to wait for the climatic conditions to meet the filming conditions, the crew spent a month or two.

For this reason, Liu Lang discussed with Dong Yanling, who is in charge of film distribution, and did not choose the Spring Festival file of the next year.

Instead, it was decided to postpone it for a few months to give the crew more time to prepare.

Dong Yanling has no objection to this.

The first part of "The Wandering Earth" has achieved a double harvest at the box office and word-of-mouth, becoming an indelible monument in domestic film history, breaking a number of historical records.

In general, in this case, the sequel is not to mention surpassing the first part, even if you want to replicate the success of the first part and stabilize the global box office, it is very difficult for word-of-mouth.

As the first big IP with international influence released under the name of Byte Entertainment, the importance of "The Wandering Earth" is undoubted.

Released in a hurry, it is tantamount to killing chickens and taking eggs, and fishing with all your might.

In fact, if Liu Lang announced that "Wandering 2" needs to be polished for 3-4 years, I am afraid that Dong Yanling will be able to accept it.

So just postpone it for a few months, which doesn't seem to her to have any problems.

"However, the competition in May is a bit fierce, and there are several Hollywood blockbusters introduced, which may have an impact on the film schedule. "

The highest box office schedules in domestic cinemas are the Spring Festival, May Day, National Day, and the summer vacation from June to July.

In recent years, with the development of domestic films, the unwritten rule of 'Domestic Protection Month' has become somewhat loose.

In addition to the Spring Festival schedule and the summer vacation schedule from June to July, the other two schedules will introduce foreign commercial blockbusters as usual.

Among them, the May Day holiday is a very important schedule, which will attract many commercial blockbusters to compete with each other.

"Or, will it be postponed for another two months then?"

Dong Yanling's idea is very simple, let "Wandering 2" be released in the summer, and use the "Domestic Protection Month" to escort the film and improve its competitiveness as much as possible.

Although the first part of "The Wandering Earth" is a global success and has received a lot of recognition, both at the box office and word of mouth.

But I have to mention that Hollywood commercial blockbusters are still quite a threat in the minds of domestic filmmakers like Dong Yanling.

Competing with those Hollywood commercial blockbusters on the same stage? To be honest, Dong Yanling has no bottom in her heart.

"No need, let's go on May 1st, rely on the domestic protection month to avoid the war, and I will always feel inferior in the future. Liu

Lang didn't care too much about what domestic protection was or not.

He also now has nearly 2 billion "The Wandering Earth" exclusive black technology points.

You only need to get another 1 billion points to redeem the most expensive 'smart AI technology'.

In other words, the total box office of "Wandering 2" only needs to reach about 3 billion dragon coins.

In Liu Lang's opinion, this is not a difficult matter.

With the box office of the first part and the word-of-mouth foundation, the popularity of "Wandering 2" has continued to rise since the project was established.

Including many foreign audiences, they are looking forward to this movie, which is different from Hollywood's formulaic sci-fi films.

Professional film and television data agencies estimate that even if "Wandering 2" is not protected by the 'Domestic Protection Month', the estimated domestic box office can reach about 2.5-3 billion, which is still as conservative as possible.

Coupled with the vast overseas market, the most conservative estimate of the total box office can reach about 6 billion, and it does not include the income from other channels such as video tape rental, Blu-ray disc sales, etc.

The capital market is profit-seeking, and the overseas film market is naturally the same.

When the first part of "The Wandering Earth" was made, relying on the face of the Dragon Film Group, it landed in theaters in overseas markets.

However, at that time, overseas theaters were not interested in "The Wandering Earth".

Because before this, there were too many popular domestic movies that wanted to get a piece of the overseas market.

However, their overseas performance is often unsatisfactory, and the domestic comedy/romance films are not of interest to overseas audiences in different cultural environments.

Until the emergence of the hardcore sci-fi film "The Wandering Earth", the use of industrial sci-fi films, which is almost exclusive to Hollywood, made the global film market feel the shock of sci-fi from the Dragon Kingdom.

Hollywood's Terminator robots, Transformers, space battleships, alien zergs and other sci-fi films can attract the interest of moviegoers around the world.

Elements such as space elevators, Marauder drones, artificial intelligence, and even the detonation of the moon from the Dragon Kingdom have also been accepted by overseas audiences.

not only ordinary moviegoers, but also many overseas professional film and television artists and scientific research workers also highly respect "The Wandering Earth".

The movie can almost be fake and real special effects, which is different from the core of the American heroic science fiction film on the bad street, as well as the hardcore, various science fiction buildings that can stand up to scrutiny, planetary engine data, and the plan to blast the moon, etc.

It can allow all majors and all levels of movie-watching groups to find the excitement that interests them.

In this case, overseas theaters have greatly increased their confidence in the IP of "The Wandering Earth".

As soon as the project of "Wandering 2" was established, many overseas theaters contacted overseas distribution matters.

This is a treatment that has never been seen in other domestic films.

Therefore, Liu Lang is very confident in "Wandering 2" to obtain 1 billion black technology points, and there is no need to postpone the release plan for the sake of 'Domestic Protection Month'.

After confirming that "Wandering 2" was declared for release on May Day, Dong Yanling checked the list of films that are expected to be released on May Day.
