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

Although I know that this one-star bad review has no impact on "The Wandering Earth", which has been rated by tens of thousands of people.

But Xu Lei still couldn't help but do it.

However, when he clicked on the review, he did not feel much satisfied and relieved, but became more and more empty.

No matter how much you slander "The Wandering Earth", you can't stop it from soaring into the sky.

The media film critics have a good reputation, and the audience who has seen it has a high evaluation, and the cinema theaters have also hurriedly increased their efforts to schedule films.

Xu Lei couldn't think of anything else he could turn around for a while.

"Director, the chairman just called and asked you what the situation is today, and asked you to go to the company to explain to him and the co-investors... The

assistant's voice sounded in his ears, and Xu Lei only felt that his mind was buzzing for a while, and his ears were ringing constantly.

。

When Liu Lang arrived at the imperial capital by plane, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening.

Dong Yanling led the team and picked up Liu Lang on the tarmac directly as a VIP customer of the airport, and then galloped away in the direction of the city.

"At present, the main creative team has been assembled, and the first roadshow will be held at midnight.

In the following month, the first round of roadshow promotion cities were 'Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Chongwu, Chenghang', the eight major ticket warehouse cities.

Each of them grossed more than $1 billion a year, which is the top eight in the national city box office and the top priority of our first round of promotion.

After completing these eight cities, the next step is to use them as the center of the circle and spread to the surrounding second- and third-tier cities.

The goal of our roadshow publicity is 30 days, 50 cities!" Dong

Yanling, as a representative of the publicity and distributor of "The Wandering Earth", has long made a plan for the promotion of the film.

Not to mention the publicity on the Internet, the most mainstream way of film promotion at the moment is the roadshow, which is a general term for the main creators of the film, stars and the media, the audience and fans to meet offline and promote the new film, that is, the activities that you have seen in the cinema or shopping mall to build momentum for the new film.

Every movie is preceded by an inevitable publicity battle that usually lasts more than a month. It seems that only by fighting this battle well can it be possible to exchange for a high film rate and high box office in theaters. And the secret to winning this battle is that the country must be swept in a short period of time.

Liu Lang had a headache when he heard Dong Yanling's roadshow publicity plan, especially 'Thirty Days and Fifty Cities'.

This is destined to be a 'hungry and thirsty, thirsty, sleeping, and out of breath overnight'.

But there is no doubt that Dong Yanling, who believes in big data, her film roadshow promotion plan is well thought out, which city to go to, and how long it will take are all based on helping "The Wandering Earth" achieve a higher box office.

In the face of such a dedicated publisher team, Liu Lang certainly will not be ignorant, so he can only choose to cooperate.

。

It didn't take long for Liu Lang to join the main creative team of "The Wandering Earth" who had gathered in the imperial capital first.

"I'm sorry everyone, but I called you over for a roadshow on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Looking at Wu Jin, Hua Tsai, Li Xuejian, Sha Yi and others who had not seen him for a few months, Liu Lang said slightly apologetically.

"It's okay Director Liu, everyone is happy! The

box office on the first day has broken 550 million, let's work harder and strive to rush to the top ten in film history!" Wu

Jin said with a smile, and everyone around him hurriedly agreed, beaming with joy without the slightest unhappiness.

Among the people present, except for Andy and Wu Jin, the films starring others together may not be as much as 550 million.

If you want to reach the top ten in the history of domestic box office films, you must have a scale of at least 4 billion.

This is undoubtedly a fantastic number in the eyes of the vast majority of people in the main creative team.

Now they have the opportunity to contribute to this goal themselves, not to mention how happy they are.

Among the main creative team, the most surprised by the box office performance of "The Wandering Earth" are Wu Jin and Andy.

Originally, they were told by Liu Lang that they were only starring as special guest actors, and they could only be regarded as a supporting role at most, but after watching the whole movie, they found that "The Wandering Earth" originally had three 'protagonists'.

Liu Peiqiang, Tu Hengyu, and Zhou Zhezhi of the three lines in the movie have the same roles, which also indicates that Wu Jin, Andy, and Li Xuejian will receive a high-grossing commercial blockbuster as another representative work of their own.

This will be Wu Jin's most powerful weapon to fight back against 'Wu Jin PTSD patients'.

It will also be Andy who proves that he has not been abandoned by the new era film market.

After everyone greeted each other for a while, they soon boarded the bus and went to the target theater under the urging of Dong Yanling.

As a temporarily selected first stop for the roadshow, the audience in the target theater did not know about it.

So when the film ended, the main creative team of "The Wandering Earth" appeared in front of the theater audience with the lights, and the audience waiting for the movie easter eggs was pleasantly surprised.

screaming and cheering, frantically taking videos and pictures with their mobile phones and posting them on their respective social platforms, as a way to express their inner euphoria.

After the introduction and greetings, it soon came to the audience's question session.

"Hello Director Liu Lang, I have watched the two sci-fi short films you made before, and then just after watching the movie "The Wandering Earth", I feel that there has been a qualitative leap in the production of special effects, and many props in the movie are simply too real.

I want to ask how the special effects are handled, and I feel that there is a generation gap between domestic movies, such as "Magic City Fortress"...

"In terms of special effects, our budget is relatively sufficient, and the crew is responsible for it themselves, and we didn't look for high-priced special effects companies abroad, so it may be more cost-effective.

Liu Lang separated the issue of special effects in two sentences.

"Do you think the special effects are too real, is there a possibility that some of the props in it are real?"

Liu Lang smiled and threw the question back to the audience, which made the audience stunned for a moment, and before they could react, Wu Jin immediately complained on the side.

"Let me tell you, Director Liu is a real shooting maniac.

Do you know? In the scene of the space elevator air battle, he really found 1,000 'Marauder drones' of equal proportions and military fighters to shoot, and the close defense guns and other guns were also firing with real guns.

An air battle scene was filmed, and more than 100 drones were destroyed, and everyone on the set at the time was almost stupid...

Wu Jin's complaint quickly attracted the echo of the members of the main creative team.

If it weren't for the signing of a confidentiality agreement, what they wanted to complain about most was actually the drama in the 'space elevator car'.

Who would have thought that in order to shoot weightless fight scenes, director Liu Lang really fooled them into a geosynchronous orbit more than 30,000 kilometers above the ground.

It's outrageous!
