Director’s Legend

The Luohan Temple in the mountain city of Yuzhong~ County is the main filming location for "Crazy Stone" this time, and it is also Shao Shuaijun's earliest planned location. As early as Zhang Xiaobing and others from the art team came to Shancheng, Shao Shuaijun notified Qi Wansheng, Zhang Chao, and Dagang, who were producers of Wailian, to set down the use time of Luohan Temple in the next three months.

According to the instructions of the art team, the decoration team was asked to come in and renovate the entire Luohan Temple. The renovation of the entire Luohan Temple was not completed until the filming started.

After entering the shooting state, Shao Shuaijun set up camp at the Luohan Temple. The footage of the Luohan Temple is the most important part of the whole movie. Shao Shuaijun will personally lead it. In addition to the Luohan Temple, there is also an important place, a hotel with a bathhouse, not far from the Luohan Temple, which is also under the control of Shao Shuaijun.

As for the other location shooting, Shao Shuaijun and Li Kai have chosen a place, and the rest of the shooting will be done by Li Kai.

The movie "Crazy Stone" is a confrontation between good and evil around a piece of jade accidentally excavated from a factory toilet. Headed by Bao Shihong, head of the security department played by Guo Tao, as a factory representative, protect the jade on display. The real estate developer Feng Dong Yipai, played by Xu Zheng, was going to steal the jade and let the factory collapse in order to buy the factory's land at a low price. The Dao brothers played by Liu Hua, including Heipi played by Huang Bo and Xiaojun played by Yue Xiaojun, simply want to grab the jade for a good price.

This is already three lines, enough to complete a complex film, but the reason why this film is enduring, the success lies in the addition of two lines in addition to these three lines. One is Xie Xiaomeng, the son of the factory director, played by Peng Bo. This man is ignorant and specializes in body art. In order to trick Dao's girlfriend into bed, he stole the jade. The other one is the thief Mike played by Lian Jianwei. Four eyes played by Feng Dong's man and Wang Xun came forward to contact him to help the company steal the jade.

These five lines are intertwined at once, plus some other short lines, light or dark, through all kinds of coincidences and opportunities, weaving an amazing black comedy.

For the original film, director Ning Hao relied on Liu Tianwang's sponsorship of the Asian Rising Stars Guidance Program, and received 3 million investment. All of them were used to make the film. There was no money to promote. In this way, he still relied on the quality to win 23 million box office. In the top ten in the middle row, became a completely dark horse.

It shows that the success of the film is very deep.

To make this movie well, it requires not only director skills, but also hard work. The shooting time passed day by day, and the samples increased day by day. Shao Shuaijun looked through the previous samples almost every day to find out the shortcomings and compare them with the original in memory.

Eliminating the imperfections of the original version, adding it belongs to Shao Shuaijun's own ideas, trying to make the film surpass the original.

Shao Shuaijun is a typical workaholic. Once filming starts, he sleeps for no more than four hours a day, either rehearsing the actors or watching samples.

"Huang Bo, yesterday's sewer shots need to be shot again."

This morning, as soon as Shao Shuaijun entered the set, he shouted loudly. Huang Bo was having a scene with Liu Hua, and he ran over after hearing the words, saying, "I want to remake it again, director, I have retaken it three times, now that I smell the smell of the sewer, I want to vomit."

"I want to vomit too, but I have to retake the shot. The tension of the expression in the lens is not coherent. Come and see for yourself, experience it for ten minutes, and then retake the shot.

This shot was taken in the sewer, and the content was black skin played by Huang Bo, who was going to touch the Luohan Temple through the sewer and steal the emerald. However, Bao Shihong, the security chief played by Guo Tao, had long discovered that a stone statue of a Bodhisattva was placed on the manhole cover. The black skin could not be opened, so he could only crawl back along the same path.

What's funny is that the black skin on the front foot entered the sewer, and the BMW of the thief Mike on the back foot was pressed on the manhole cover, making the black skin unable to get out. What’s even more funny is that Robber Mike himself got stuck in the process of drilling the bellows, so no one drove the BMW, and the black skin was hungry in the sewer for three days...

"Look, at the very beginning, your emotions were excited because you were going to steal the jade to make a lot of money. When the manhole cover in the Luohan Temple could not be opened, your emotions became depressed, but because of the role of the black skin If you have a simple temper, you can't bring irritability when you are depressed. After that, when you crawl back, the manhole cover that comes is also blocked. Only then should you bring a trace of irritability."

Pointing to Huang Bo in the picture, Shao Shuaijun began to analyze: "Look at this group of shots again. You are making a phone call in the sewer, but your mobile phone has no signal. You have to worry a little bit. The latter group is when you climb up the shaft and turn your mobile phone. The antenna of Dao stretched out and finally got through to Brother Dao’s cell phone. You can’t wait to explain your situation, because Brother Dao is a ruthless person, you need to behave very eagerly, and be cautious in your eagerness...and this last group, Mike’s car was towed away, and you finally climbed up. You have been hungry for three days. At this time, your expression should be weak, you can't think of anything and don't respond..."

"Director, I understand what you said, but my expression looks very OK, I even smile when I look at it myself. There is nothing wrong with it." Huang Bo wore a night gown with a bird's nest-like hairstyle , To this stop makes people want to laugh.

"Single links are very suitable for the scene, but the film is interspersed with narratives. As a multi-line story, there is a lack of tension when connected. I will show you a little bit. A sample film I simply cut, you will experience it again. "Shao Shuaijun released the samples, and Huang Bo watched intently.

Only then did Shao Shuaijun turn around, pick up the loudspeaker and shout: "Wang Yixue, you will take the next three shots to take the shots. Sloppy, you can rearrange Gu Xuan's scenes for me, and finish filming her scenes a day earlier. Send her back to school one day, and the crew can save some food expenses!"

"Understood." Sloppy replied loudly.

Gu Xuan, who made up in the corner, flattened her mouth and said to make-up artist Yang Yang: "The director is also stingy. I'm not in a hurry to go to school. He is in a hurry. I'm really afraid that I will be poor."

Yang Yang is a female makeup artist in her 30s. She joked and said, "Then you can grab her by your hand and grab his heart to see if he is still stingy."

"Cut, the director is not my food, he has a face that strangers don’t want to enter all day long, as if I owe him 500 yuan. Looking at his situation, it is difficult to find someone in this life! Sister Yang, you still give He introduces a person, rushes for joy, washes away the cold air from him, and everyone lives more comfortably."

"I'm not a matchmaker, and I know you a little girl." Yang Yang said with a smile, "However, I have been a makeup artist for several years, have worked with many crews, and have met many directors. A director as young as Director Shao is still The first time I saw it, I thought it was a slogan selling dog meat. I didn’t know that Director Shao’s sharp glance was no worse than those directors. Tsk tsk, it seems that being a director depends on talent..."
