Hot Pot, Mahjong and Sichuan Opera, "Nothing That Can't Be Solved by a Hot Pot" not only have the elements concentrated, but the scenes are almost concentrated in the backstage space of the Sichuan Opera theater. While the suspenseful narrative is being told, there will also be Sichuan opera actors based on the characters of Shi Qian, Bao Zheng and Guan Gong. Different costumes suddenly break into the space, and the traditional lyrics and the story happening at the moment form an intertext, which brings a comedy effect and also gives the film the look and feel of a small theater experimental drama. A professional viewer said that this film is a "house drama". "To complete a film in a single space requires extremely careful narrative and plot. The most fearful thing is that the story told in the house will not interest half of the audience. However, this movie can tightly grasp the hearts of the audience. The new secrets that the protagonist constantly reveals make people unable to guess the ending. I had an idea, and I wanted to choose a name that was both easy to remember and entertaining.” Director Ding Sheng said that he put a lot of effort into the film’s script, which ultimately resulted in the film having a “refined sense of rhythm” and “quick reversal”. The characteristics of the story, including the fighting scenes, hot pot scenes and literary dramas, all have to present a state of "people appear gentle on the surface but are actually turbulent on the inside", so it will be difficult to shoot.Therefore, Ding Sheng did not hesitate to be "cruel" to the actors, just to "extort" more of their talents as much as possible.
videos also have high standards and control over details. For example, in order to show the sharp contrast between the before and after image of "Yao Ji", Ding Sheng hoped that the character would have "particularly strong red hair" in the later period. For this reason, Yang Mi needed to bleach all her hair white and then dye it red. The whole process Seven and a half hours long. Since this "intense red" lasts so short, she had to reapply it every three days during the rest of the shoot. The actors are also willing to pay for it.
In the film, the four members of the "Mahjong Group" worked hard to move two large suitcases from Director Fu's house to the theater, one filled with money and the other filled with people. Some viewers were curious about how the weight was expressed when several people moved boxes in the movie. Ding Sheng revealed that the boxes in the film were not empty. One was filled with mineral water, and the other actually had staff hiding inside. "Every time we shoot a scene of moving boxes, we are very concerned about the sense of reality, and we are especially worried that the audience will think the box is not heavy enough."
