If Li Yi shoots "Crazy Stone", it will definitely be different from the original version. Just from the cast alone, it can be said that it is absolutely crushing.
Although sometimes actors who are famous may not necessarily be suitable, but the difference is still obvious.
In fact, Li Yi didn't originally plan to find too many big names to star in "Crazy Stone", but he couldn't stand it. As soon as his project was approved, a bunch of people came to his door, wanting to get the role.
Li Yi did not refuse. Although "Crazy Stone" will not be a big production, it is definitely a very interesting movie.
Soon "Crazy Stone" began to enter the preparation period. Compared with "Joker", although this movie is also a feature film, it is actually much simpler.
After all, many things are ready-made and shot in China, unlike "Joker".
Chen Wen and others all came to join in the fun. It could be said that it was just Li Yi who wanted to play, but after reading the script, everyone expressed their intention to play together.
Therefore, what was originally a small-budget comedy became hugely popular.
In fact, these days, as long as it's a Li Yi movie, it can't help but be hugely popular.
Li Yi really didn't think about creating an all-star lineup at first, but in the end, there were too many old friends that he couldn't stand.
For example, the role of international thief Mike was directly won by Hong Kong superstar Chen Weijie.
According to what he said, he had never played an international thief before, but this was definitely his first time playing an international thief like "Mike".
Then the role of Bao Shihong was won by Chen Wen.
Other roles were also divided up.
Soon, the film entered the shooting stage.
Li Yi was not in a hurry during the filming process, and because the plot itself was very interesting, the filming process was really like playing.
During this period, we also specially produced many versions in other local dialects, which will be used in the future.
In fact, to a certain extent, "Crazy Stone" can also be said to be a crazy thief, because the entire movie is about the process of stealing "emeralds".
Li Yi positioned "Crazy Stone" as a pure comedy, and he really didn't want to create any connotations.
In fact, "Crazy Stone" is quite interesting.
Because the era when the story takes place is actually quite special.
This is a movie with very little "main theme", so I won't go into details here. Anyway, that's all for the fun.
Although I am not in a hurry, because "Crazy Stone" is really a movie that relies on "serious" speech to make it funny, the filming progress is really not slow.
Of course, it is precisely because of this that the comedy style of "Crazy Stone" is not as unique as Zhou Xing's. Therefore, the requirements for actors are more to tell lies in a serious manner and just tell stupid things.
The advantage of this is that there is no need for specific actors, so the audience can automatically get the laugh.
The filming progress of the movie was much higher than Li Yi imagined. As a result, the film was completed in less than three months.
Because there are no special effects in the movie, post-production is also very simple.
It just happened to be in time for the Spring Festival, so Li Yi simply set the schedule.
Li Yi has been absent from the Spring Festival schedule for a long time. The main reason is that his movies are usually released on a very random schedule.
But other movies in the Spring Festival stalls are facing serious enemies. After all, no one in China knows that the release of Li Yi's movie, even if it is a literary film, cannot be blocked by ordinary movies.
What's more, this time, "Crazy Stone" is a comedy.
What a comedy!
It's not that Li Yi has never taken pictures, but actually there are relatively few.
The expectations of movie fans were suddenly raised, not to mention that the movie also attracted big names.
Fortunately, the promotion time of "Crazy Stone" was not that long.
But even so, when the ticket reservation window opened, the tickets for the first two days of "Crazy Stone" were all booked directly.
This is the charm of the Big Devil movie.
The couple Chen Jingning and Liu Fei have never missed almost every movie of Li Yi.
This time is no exception. On the first day of the new year, because the movie "Crazy Stone" was shot relatively quickly and the schedule was tight, we didn't do any screenings and got it right in one go.
Released nationwide on New Year's Day.
So they bought tickets as soon as possible.
Although it was daytime, the cinema was packed with spectators.
"It's been a long time since Director Li was filming a comedy!" Liu Fei said with a sigh.
"I heard that Director Li himself was depressed because of the movie "Joker", so he wanted to make a relaxing movie," said Chen Jingning.
"The comedy is pretty good, and it's just released during the Spring Festival," Liu Fei said.
Soon the movie started to show.
The noise inside the cinema suddenly suffocated.
On the big screen, there is a river bank in the light river mist; on the river surface, there are high-rise bungalows on the streets of the mountain city; the camera passes by in aerial photography.
The narration sounded.
Xie Xiaomeng spoke in Mandarin with a Hong Kong accent: "This is the city of my childhood. Although I have been in Hong Kong Island for many years, this scene still often lingers in my dreams. When I see you, I have an indescribable feeling. I can't tell if it's deja vu."
We still feel like old friends at first sight. This feeling is so kind and strong..."
A young man with a mohawk, strong muscles and tattoos was sitting in the corner of an old cable car, listening to an MP3 player with his eyes closed, and a pair of boxing gloves hanging around his neck.
Xie Xiaomeng, dressed in Hong Kong style with a round head, a big face and a sun hat, leaned against the window of the cable car, leisurely admiring the beautiful scenery. His long hair was gently blown by the breeze, holding a bottle of drink in his hand, and he was intoxicated in his own strong poetry.
Next to him was a long-haired beauty with a delicate figure and fashionable dress. The beauty looked at him with a confused look in her eyes.
Xie Xiaomeng glanced at the beauty.
Then he looked at the beauty affectionately: "Do you know what your temperament attracts me?"
"——Melancholy! I can see from your eyes that you have a past that is hard to look back on!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xie Xiaomeng said and gently took the girl's hand.
However, at this moment, the "Mohawk" looked up and saw Xie Xiaomeng's actions in front of him, and took off his headphones.
The beauty looked back at him, couldn't help laughing, and suddenly looked behind Xiao Meng.
Xie Xiaomeng suddenly turned around, and Mohawk was standing behind him. The girl took her hand out of Xiaomeng's hand and stood next to "Mohawk."
The fist of "Mohawk" has been hit hard and powerfully.
Xie Xiaomeng's eyes darkened!
Then the subtitles appear.
"Mohawk" punched him again, and Xie Xiaomeng's eyes darkened again.
Actor subtitles appear again.
"Hahaha!"
This kind of scene is still very funny. There are subtitles for every punch, and it feels like being subtitled.
The other people in the old cable car disappeared in an instant, leaving only Xie Xiaomeng with a mohawk in the empty carriage, and the carriage instantly transformed into a formal boxing ring.
Xie Xiaomeng was beaten in various positions, his eyes kept turning black, and subtitles appeared continuously.
The drink in his hand was also thrown everywhere.
The scene returned to reality, and the "Mohawk" punched for the last time. Xie Xiaomeng's head fell back, his body completely lost its center of gravity, and the Coke can in his hand flew out of the cable car.
The scene changed to the outpatient room of a hospital.
The female nurse is using the computer, revealing her deep career line, and the collar on her chest is open, looming.
Of course, "Crazy Stone" is a comedy, but it is not a side comedy, so this thing also serves the plot.
Next to him, Bao Shihong, played by Chen Wen, stared at him sideways. Bao Shihong was sitting opposite an old doctor.
The old doctor raised his head and looked up at Bao Shihong.
Old doctor: "Hey, hey, you don't look sick. Apart from being unable to urinate, is there anything else wrong with you?"
The nurse looked at him in surprise, stood up and walked away. Bao Shihong came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly.
Bao Shihong said in a low voice: "I have no children. I have been married for three years and I can't find out the reason."
The old doctor opened the drawer smoothly, used tweezers to pull out a nude picture album, and threw it in front of Bao Shihong.
The old doctor didn't even raise his head: "Take a sample."
Bao Shihong looked at the picture album on the table with a confused look on his face: "What does it look like?"
"Hahaha!"
"Is it okay if I can't urinate?"
"Isn't it considered a disease if I can't urinate?"
Take a sample?
What's it like?
I understand everything!
In fact, in order to perform this scene well, Chen Wen had to laugh several times.
There's nothing you can do. You obviously understand, but if you pretend not to understand, that's just stupid, right?
The scene switched. In the corridor of the hospital, Bao Shihong came out of the toilet with a picture album in his elbow and a test tube in his hand. He flicked the test tube against the fluorescent lamp. Sanbao stood up from the bench and walked over.
Bao Shihong asked: "Is it rare?"
Sanbao stared at him without saying a word. Bao Shihong asked for trouble. He handed the test tube to his left hand, wiped his right hand on his buttocks, wiped away the wet stains, and walked towards the clinic. Sanbao followed behind. He started from Bao Shihong.
He took the album from his elbow and flipped through it. While reading, he tore off a page and put it in his pocket.
Inside the van, there was a case book in front of the window. Bao Shihong nervously held the steering wheel with both hands, his eyes wandering around, and occasionally patted the radio with poor signal. Sanbao, who was in the passenger seat, threw a letter on the driver's seat.
.
Sanbao slapped the radio and asked, "Are you really quitting?"
Bao Shihong drove the car carefully: "How about I take the driver's license test? My brother-in-law is waiting for me to run at night..."
Sanbao was suspicious: "Is it possible for you to travel at night to get sick?"
At this moment, a news report came from the radio: "...A priceless jadeite appeared in our city...a handicraft factory...This is extremely rare in the world."
Rare..."
Sanbao looked surprised: "Hey, are you talking about our factory?"
But Bao Shihong said disapprovingly: "It's almost closed, how do you still expect pie from the sky?"
At this time, a "bang" sound suddenly came from the roof of the car. Bao Shihong quickly stepped on the brakes.
The van stopped abruptly. Bao Shihong and Sanbao got out of the car one by one and saw the Coke can rolled down behind the car. Sanbao lowered his head to pick up the Coke can. Bao Shihong stepped on the door frame and looked towards the roof of the car.
Then he looked up at the cable car and cursed.
"Oh, you killed someone. Isn't that immoral?"
Sanbao handed the Coke can to Bao Shihong, and Bao Shihong weighed the Coke can.
Bao Shihong looked up at the cable car: "What if it hits someone!"
However, at this moment, the car behind him was sliding down the ramp.
Bao Shihong was cursing, and then a loud noise suddenly came from behind the two of them.
Bao Shihong and Sanbao turned around in shock and found that the van behind them had slipped away a few meters away and hit a large Mercedes-Benz parked on the street with its rear end.
Si Yan held a can of spray paint in his hand, walked up to the Mercedes-Benz and looked at it, and then walked over to the van to look at it.
Four Eyes: Damn it! Driverless, high-tech!
Bao Shihong and Sanbao walked up to the Mercedes-Benz and looked at the broken headlights in frustration. Siyan walked up to Bao Shihong with an arrogant attitude.
Four Eyes cursed: "Damn it, who is driving the car? Does he know how to drive? He can't even pull the handbrake. He is so fucking heartless..."
Bao Shihong said politely: "Speak politely and don't curse."
Siyan pointed a spray paint can at Bao Shihong: "You damn hit my car, what's the matter with scolding you..."
However, before he could finish cursing, he screamed: "Oh!"
It turned out that Sambo on the side kicked Siyan to the ground.
Sanbao kicked Siyan on the ground hard.
"Scold, scold!"
Seeing Sanbao going crazy, Bao Shihong hugged Siyan quickly.
At this time, a traffic policeman came over on a motorcycle and stopped.
The traffic policeman leaned over the front hood of the Mercedes-Benz, holding Bao Shihong's driver's book. While looking at it, he filled in the form. The ballpoint pen couldn't write, so he drew several lines on the back of the form, but still wrote
When he couldn't come out, he put the ballpoint pen into his mouth and let out a sigh of relief.
The traffic policeman filled out the form, pulled it off and handed it to Bao Shihong, and handed Bao Shihong's driver's license to Si Yan.
The traffic policeman spoke to Bao Shihong and Siyan respectively: "After you repair the car, you return the book to him, and then you fight and go to the police station!"
After the traffic police finished speaking, he turned around, got on his motorcycle and left. With four eyes he proudly got on the car, started the car, and rolled down the window.
"Remember, the original one is five thousand two!"
The car drove away.
Bao Shihong stomped on the Coke can on the ground: "Damn it, five thousand, five thousand!"
Sanbao looked at Bao Shihong helplessly.
The camera switched to show that in the factory toilet, the director was carefully studying a large hole in the toilet wall, followed by two workers.
"This toilet was built with scrap materials from the past. It's not easy for Master Zhang to find it!"
At this time, the follower Xiao Lizi whispered something into the factory director's ear, and the factory director nodded and stood up, instructing the workers: "Tear down these walls and look carefully!"
After giving the instructions, he took Xiao Li and walked away.
Xiao Li asked: "Who should we invite to start this work?"
The factory director put his hands behind his back: "I have already sent people to the capital to invite Mr. Wu."
"That will cost a lot of money! Is it worth it?" Xiao Li was a little surprised.
"I've been working in this factory for thirty years, and I've never seen such good materials. Who else would have fun if I didn't hire him?" the factory director explained.
In fact, although these paragraphs are not expressed directly and clearly, the audience can understand the situation clearly without being stupid.
The screen switches again.
In the factory yard, workers were carrying and wiping some handicrafts, while the four-eyed man from before was driving the hit Mercedes-Benz with the door open and looking into the rearview mirror to straighten his collar.
Seeing the factory director appear, he quickly walked over.
Four eyes pointed at the busy workers around him: "Hey, Lao Xie! You haven't paid wages for the past eight months, and you are still doing it in such a spectacular way?"
He said in a low voice: "You are bad enough. You let these employees jump off the building with you. You will die early and be born early!"
As he said that, he took out a contract from his bag: "We, Chairman Zhou, are considerate of you. Considering the situation in your factory, you won't even be able to repay the loan 80% of the time. Didn't we sign a land deed mortgage agreement at the beginning?
?This is a real estate transfer contract we have drafted. Please read it over first and see if you have any comments or anything to add. This old factory building will be turned into a high-rise building..."
