Recently, some netizens said that they came across a film crew filming in Qingdao, and saw the uniforms of the primary school attached to Xihong No. 7 Middle School on the spot, and said that they "heard Ma Li's iconic laughter." It is reported that the crew is filming the movie "Catch the Baby". The film is produced by the team of "The Richest Man in Xihong City", directed by Yan Fei and Peng Damo, and starring Shen Teng. Ma Li, who missed the chance to star in "The Richest Man in Xihong City", will return this time, and the "Shen Ma" group will reunite in the film.
After the success of "Charlotte Troubles" in 2015, Shen Teng and Ma Li announced that they would work together to create a new film "Capital Successor". The film was registered with the National Film Administration in 2016, but there was no follow-up. It is said that "Capital Successor" became "The Richest Man in Xihong City" after revising the script, and the heroine of the film was also changed from Ma Li to Song Yunhua.
In 2023, "Capital Successor" was renamed "Catch a Baby" and was submitted for registration again with the same story outline. The film tells the story of teenage Ma Jiye who lives in a large courtyard in poverty. For as long as Jiye can remember, his parents have been engaged in ordinary low-level jobs in society, and Jiye has been taking care of his paralyzed grandmother in bed. But just after grandma passed away, a series of inexplicable things suddenly happened.
