If you want to say which role in the movie "The Legend of Shushan Xianxia" is the most sought-after, it is not the senior sister Yan Yunyan and the little junior sister Ling'er.

These two characters did not receive a boxed lunch in the script, and they are both outstanding, they are part of the protagonist group, if this first part is successful at the box office, the two characters will definitely continue to appear in the second part.

After the company's "first brother" Zhu Yawen was set in the male protagonist, all the actresses in the company were reluctant to let go of the other two roles.

Zhu Yawen has proven his ability to carry the box office in the movie "Those Years".

Well, although everyone remembers this movie more about Shen Jiayi played by Liu Yifei.

But in the era of light and shadow when yin and yang are declining, it is already the best situation to be able to play with Zhu Yawen.

From Jinsha, who first entered the company, to Yang Mi, who entered the company at the latest, every actress is imperative for these two roles.

Among them, the most confident is Yang Mi.

After all, she is really popular now, and the popularity of "Sword and Fairy III" plus the two TV series "Ghost" is superimposed, and she has the peak momentum after the broadcast of "Palace Lock Heart Jade" in the original time and space.

Among the actresses in the company, she is the most eager to hit the film industry.

Just like the mentality of acting in movies after "Palace Lock Heart Jade" became popular in the original time and space, Yang Mi now also has the courage to not stop acting in movies.

It's a pity that Zhang Guorong didn't take a fancy to her.

Gentle and strong, she played the role of the senior sister who acted as a harbor for her younger brothers and sisters, and after Zhang Guorong thought about it, she handed it over to Wang Likun instead of Yang Mi, the most popular in the company.

This made Yang Mi extremely puzzled, and even a little mentally collapsed.

What kind of small role is Wang Likun.

There is only one famous TV series, "Agent Group Five".

Even if he joined the company later, he only played a unit heroine in "Soul Ferry 2", and took on another "Beauty Scheming".

From popularity to appearance to temperament, Yang Mi doesn't feel that she can lose to her.

However, Zhang Guorong's decision is not something that Yang Mi can change, and even she did not question Zhang Guorong's courage in person.

And what made her even more frustrated was that the role of the senior sister was not grabbed, and the little junior sister who took a step back was not hers.

The role of the little sister lived up to expectations and was given to Jinsha, after all, the screenwriter wrote this character according to her.

And people like Tang Yan, Jiang Xin, Wang Ou, Haiqing, and even Su Chang, a supernumerary member of the company, have also won the roles of other young generation geniuses who will appear in the movie.

Zhang Guorong didn't have any special opinions on Yang Mi, and also assigned her a supporting actress with a role that was not light or heavy.

But Yang Mi really can't look at this kind of supporting role that only appears for three or five minutes in the whole film.

Even if it is possible that the supporting role will turn positive in the future, then she is not willing to chase this illusory hope.

For a moment, Yang Mi thought about simply jumping ship.

She felt that she had suffered "injustice", and her mood was called an indignation.

Fortunately, Zeng Jia persuaded her at the critical moment.

Unlike Yang Mi, an insider in the game, Zeng Jia can completely see that Zhang Guorong is only casting to fit the role.

He doesn't regard popularity as the first element of casting, even if the popularity is low, it doesn't matter, as long as the actor fits the role, then he is willing to use you.

After all, Zhang Guorong's own signboard, coupled with the name of the light and shadow era, no longer needs any superstar actor to gild it.

And Zhang Guorong, who holds the two major IPs of "Shushan" and "Walking with God", is indeed not offended by Yang Mi.

This is not a problem that can be solved by changing jobs.

"Mi Mi, don't worry."

"Doesn't the company have four blockbusters to set up a project?"

"Now these are just two films to be made this year, and there will be two more movies next year."

"These two are not suitable for your role, and it is impossible to say whether they will be next year."

"Moreover, I have inquired for you, this time the company is ambitious, and what it wants to do is a movie universe strategy."

"It's like Hollywood's "Iron Man", "Thor" and "Captain America" from Marvel Comics, it has to be strung together into a world view."

Zeng Jia's mother-in-law persuaded the "grief-indignant" Yang Mi.

Across the ocean, Marvel Studios' "Iron Man 2" will be released next month, and the news that "Thor" and "Captain America" will be filmed this year has long been reported.

Although he doesn't understand what the cinematic universe is, Zeng Jia has carefully checked the Marvel Comics universe and seen Marvel's layout in recent years, and he has almost a number of the company's cinematic universe plans.

In her opinion, it is very risky for the company to do this so-called Xianxia movie universe.

Marvel itself hasn't proven that this road can work, and the era of light and shadow is keeping up non-stop, and it's going to work hard.

No matter how you look at it, the risk of this new strategy of the company is very high.

If you smash the pot, it won't be good.

"Mi Mi, you don't have a role in the first two parts, it's not necessarily a bad thing." Zeng Jia rationally analyzed: "The company's Xianxia movie universe seems to be very powerful, but the risk of failure is also very high. ”

"If it fails and the box office results suffer a waterloo, not only will the company's investment not be recovered, but it will also delay the development of the participating actors, and even be named box office poison."

"In any case, the first two films have to take the risk of opening up the market, and the later films only need to take advantage of the fisherman."

"If the company's strategy is successful, it won't get in the way, you can fight for the roles in the last two films."

"With the foundation laid by the success of the first two films, the risk of failure of the latter two films is greatly reduced, and there is a high probability that the box office performance will be even better than the first two."

"Let Wang Likun and them bear the risk, and we will pick up the ready-made ones later, isn't it better?"

I have to say that it is worthy of being the person who later opened an entertainment company with Yang Mi, Zeng Jia's judgment is still very good.

Although there are no examples of Marvel's success yet, just through the information collected, Zeng Jia saw the risks of this road to the cinematic universe and the places where the benefits are greatest.

There is no doubt that whether it is "Iron Man" or "Shushan", the risk of "pioneering" is very high.

But after "Iron Man", "Thor", "Captain America" and even "The Avengers", that is, the predecessors planted trees, and the descendants took advantage of the shade.

The pressure is not great at all, and there is a good foundation laid by "Iron Man", the risk is much lower, but the return of success is much higher.

Instead of letting Yang Mi take the risk of "pioneering", it is better to let her wait and see first, and then pick up the ready-made bargain.

After all, there are still a number of actors in the company, and after these people acted in "Shushan" first, it is impossible to go to the next two films to play the leading role.

Pressing it back is not necessarily a bad thing for Yang Mi.

Of course, this is also the best comfort theory that Zeng Canon thought of after Yang Mi lost the role of "Shu Mountain".

"Seems to have a point." After being analyzed by Zeng Jia, Yang Mi also calmed down.

"Ride a donkey and read the record book, we'll see!" She snorted indignantly. (End of chapter)
