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

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Liu Lang was still asleep when he received a call from Dong Yanling, the strategic director of Byte Entertainment.

"Mr

. Liu, good news! The real-time box office of "The Wandering Earth" has exceeded 5 million at present, surpassing "Demon Capital Fortress"!"

Dong Yanling's excitement was overflowing, and Liu Lang could guess how excited her face was when she was far away in the imperial capital through the phone.

In fact, during the period of confrontation between "The Magic City Fortress" and "The Wandering Earth" before the release, in addition to the main creative team of "The Wandering Earth", she was the strategic director of Byte Entertainment who cared most about the performance of the movie.

Liu Lang is a rookie director whom she decided to fully support despite public opinion, and science fiction films are also decided by her, and Byte Entertainment will vigorously develop genre films in the next stage.

In order to break through the penguins, Ali's two overlords have layers of barriers in the Dragon Kingdom film and television circle, Dong Yanling has pulled up the resources of Byte Entertainment and bet all the treasures on "The Wandering Earth".

The menacing publicity of "Demon Capital Fortress" before attracted nearly half of the domestic film and television industry to stand in line, which really frightened Dong Yanling.

As a management who believes in big data analysis, Dong Yanling is anxious in the face of "Magic City Fortress", which has countless industry insiders.

For this reason, the pre-sale of "The Wandering Earth" was even canceled, for fear that the pre-sale data of the competitor "Magic City Fortress" would be too high, which would have a negative impact on "The Wandering Earth".

It wasn't until the end of the media preview screening that the media critics on the Internet applauded "The Wandering Earth" that Dong Yanling felt a little relieved.

However, she is not like Xu Lei, because of a little good news, she 'opened the champagne at half time', and before the box office came out, everything was uncertain.

Although she has been praised by media critics, Dong Yanling is not blindly optimistic.

She has seen too many movies that are not well received, and the success of a commercial film, compared to the praise of film critics, is the real determining factor at the box office.

Keeping an eye on the box office data, she witnessed that "The Wandering Earth" was released at 8 o'clock in the morning and reached a total box office of 5 million in just two hours.

You know, it's the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, and countless people in the Dragon Kingdom are busy greeting the New Year, far from the peak business hours of movie theaters.

It is quite surprising that "The Wandering Earth" was able to break through the box office of 5 million so quickly.

In comparison, the real-time box office of "Demon Capital Fortress", which ranks second, is only more than one million, even if the pre-sale box office is added, it is still surpassed by "The Wandering Earth".

Dong Yanling knew that this was the effect of the word-of-mouth fermentation of media film critics, and a large number of passers-by and audiences were attracted by the comments of film critics to watch.

Whether "The Wandering Earth" can continue to maintain its advantages in the future depends on the evaluation of the audience after watching the movie.

"It's good, thank you Sister Dong, I'm going to post the Spring Festival couplets, let's talk when I have time. Liu

Lang didn't care too much about the box office lead, because he didn't regard "Demon Capital Fortress" as an opponent at all.

In his eyes, the four movies in the Spring Festival file, "Magic City Fortress", "Bear Infested", and "Big Sea Fish Begonia" cannot pose a threat to "The Wandering Earth" at all.

However, hearing this, Dong Yanling was stunned on the spot for a while.

Is there any mistake about it, can you still be so calm after your movies have been released?

Co-author, the representative of the distributor, is more excited than you, the investor, director, screenwriter and original author of the novel?!

.

After pasting the Spring Festival couplets with his sister, Liu Lang continued to help his parents prepare a banquet to entertain guests, and this year it was their turn to entertain relatives for the New Year.

Liu Lang's fame has spread through the Internet, and Ningcheng's relatives and friends have also heard about it.

The Liu family has a director, which makes many relatives and friends envious, and Liu's father and mother also laughed all day long in the praise of relatives and friends, and the smile on their faces is almost fixed.

During the lunch meal, Liu Lang's mobile phone vibrated for a while, and when he opened it, it turned out to be Lin Hao.

"Brother Lang, 50 million is in a groove

! It's still rising! I can't break through 500 million today!

I'm taking off!" As

soon as he connected the phone, Lin Hao howled excitedly, causing the relatives at the dinner table to look sideways.

"Haozi, don't howl, I'm eating, go out and have a look after eating." "

Brother Lang, do you still have the heart to eat?!Can you still eat this?!

Hurry back to the imperial capital!

We have to increase our propaganda!"

"I know,

I know, the signal is not good, we'll talk later."

Liu Lang hung up the phone and looked up to see that all the relatives around him were looking at him.

"I remember, is there a movie made by your Liu Lang recently?" A

relative suddenly asked, although they rarely go to the cinema when they are old, but as the Spring Festival approaches, the promotion of several movies is overwhelming, and occasionally seeing the name of 'Liu Lang' on it also leaves an impression.

"Yes! It is directed by Liu Lang's brother, starring Andy, Wu Jin, Li Xuejian and others.

Several young juniors immediately popularized science to the older adults around them, and then looked at Liu Lang with adoring eyes.

The publicity about the movie "The Wandering Earth" on the Internet is more fierce than offline, and young people know better than older adults how popular Liu Lang is now.

"Andy?!And Teacher Li Xuejian?!"

The relatives who originally only thought that Liu Lang was an ordinary director suddenly lit up when they heard the names of Andy and Li Xuejian.

Andy's status in the hearts of these elderly adults is like the reaction of Lu Han's fans when they hear Lu Han's name.

And Li Xuejian is a well-known veteran acting school, a national actor and artist.

Being able to work with such a big star and veteran artist, Liu Lang was instantly elevated in their eyes.

It may be difficult for young people to understand, but almost all the relatives of the parents present can be regarded as passers-by fans of Andy.

When they were young, it was the most glorious era of Hong Kong films, Andy, as the hottest batch of top Hong Kong stars, in the eyes of the older generation of audiences, is far from being able to touch porcelain by traffic stars like Lu Han.

For a while, Liu Lang was asked by relatives and elders what it was like to film with Andy, whether Andy's Mandarin was good, what role Andy played, and other questions, which made him cry and laugh.

In the end, Liu Lang promised to get posters and photos signed by Andy for these relatives and elders, which ended the family dinner.

After dinner, at the instigation of relatives and juniors, everyone went to a nearby movie theater to prepare to watch the movie "The Wandering Earth" together.

Soon, however, they discovered that they were facing a new problem.

The tickets for "The Wandering Earth" in the afternoon have been basically sold out.

There are only a few scattered seats left in the corners.
