A few days ago, the movie "The Beneficiary" announced the official trailer and three protagonist posters. The film is supervised by Ning Hao, directed by the Olympic bid, starring Dapeng, Liu Yan, and Zhang Zixian. In the three character posters released by
, Liu Yan's look is really subverted, and he almost didn't recognize it at first glance. With short blue hair and heavy makeup, he has the feeling of a small city ballroom ten years ago. His expression is full of vicissitudes and fatigue, and Liu Yan is always fashionable and sexy. The shapes are quite different.
"The Beneficiary" tells that Wu Hai (played by Dapeng) designed a trap of "marriage and harm his wife by cheating on insurance" under the instigation of his friend Zhong Zhenjiang (played by Zhang Zixian) in order to treat his 6-year-old son suffering from asthma. Wu Hai deliberately met a female network anchor Miaomiao (played by Liu Yan) who was at the bottom of society, and started this outrageous but close to reality scam. The reason why
says "close to reality", I believe everyone knows a little bit, in the past two years, there have been many cases of "killing wives and defrauding insurance" at home and abroad, and Thailand, where many incidents occurred, has been ridiculed by everyone as " Kill your wife and cheat to protect heaven.
used to think this kind of routine was outrageous, but now there are more real events to make the bottom line, such human evil, we will not hold an incredible mentality.
As for actors, Dapeng and Liu Yan are both old partners, such as "Men of the Cock Silk", "The Ferryman", "Pancake Man", "Qi Men Dunjia", "Monster Hunting 2", all comedies with Dapeng, Most of them will pull Liu Yan, and their friendship is also highly praised by netizens. In terms of the production of
, "The Beneficiary" is supervised by Ning Hao, which is another new film released by Ning Hao's "Bad Monkey 72 Film Project" after "Xiu Chun Dao: Shura Battlefield" and "I'm Not the God of Medicine".
Many friends are no strangers to this plan. In 2006, Ning Hao’s "Crazy Stone" was successfully filmed. The person most grateful to is Andy Lau, the investor. Andy Lau helped support newcomers in Chinese films and launched the "Asia Rising Star Guidance Project". Ning Hao is one of them. He directly promoted the success of "Crazy Stone", which in turn made director Ning Hao, newcomers Huang Bo, Wang Xun and other popular hits, and old actors Guo Tao and Xu Zheng also became popular again.
Ning Hao has always remembered the kindness of Andy Lau. In recent interviews or awards ceremonies, Ning Hao would also express his gratitude to Andy Lau very frankly, and bluntly said that because of Andy Lau, Ning Hao followed suit after becoming famous. He initiated the "Bad Monkey 72 Change Movie Project" to support new movie stars.
Lu Yang's "Xiuchundao: Shura Battlefield" (douban 7.2), and Wen Muye's "I am not the God of Medicine" (douban 9.0). It was Ning Hao's carefully selected "Bad Monkey Project" project. Judging from the results after the release, both times were very successful. The former had a box office of 266 million and the latter had a box office of 3.1 billion.
Now, under the supervision of Ning Hao, "Bad Monkey" has produced another new work. Same as the previous two works, this time the director is also a newcomer. Of course, this is also one of the original intentions of the "Bad Monkey" project, but what kind of work these newcomers can produce with strong support, whether it is an explosion or an overturn, depends on whether the audience likes it or not.
