A huge modern oriental fantasy world view and a fascinating world of Chinese style and supernatural powers
The movie is called "Under the Stranger", so what is a strange person? They are hidden among thousands of ordinary people and can sense and use the innate Qi (same sound as "qi") in their bodies to perform supernatural powers. In movies, there are many such settings and plots rooted in traditional Chinese culture, which together constitute China's unique supernatural culture and a supernatural worldview that only Chinese people can understand. Wu Ershan said that the most attractive thing about comics is that it combines the most traditional and fashionable things in China. "If "The Trilogy of the Gods" is our protection and respect for traditional culture, then "The Stranger" "Underneath" is how to integrate traditional culture into contemporary life." As a leader in Chinese-language fantasy films, Wu Ershan has been using the most advanced film technology to continue to promote the creative transformation and innovative development of China's excellent traditional culture.
In the film, Zhang Chulan (played by Hu Xianxu), who has always hidden his identity as a foreigner, has been involved in the vortex of fighting between different alien sects since meeting the mysterious Feng Baobao (played by Li Wanda).

The famous comic scenes "break the dimension" and come from
The domestic comic "Under One Person" has become the "peak domestic comic" in many people's mouth because of its grand world view, traditional yet extremely novel superpower settings and rich and complex characters. ”, and this is also the first time it has been put on the big screen. Talking about the original intention of creation, Wu Ershan said that in addition to his fascination with the world of Chinese style and superpowers in comics, the expansion of genres is also an important reason. "There are very few comic-book movies on our screens, and movies like "Under the Stranger" "Such stories with supernatural powers and fantasy settings that happen around young people are even rarer. What I have always been interested in and hope to do is to fill the gaps in different types of Chinese movies." From the mythical "Fengshen Trilogy" to "Under the Stranger" adapted from a Chinese comic with 30 billion views, Wu Ershan has constantly challenged scarce themes, innovatively expressed traditional culture, and continued to "dominate" the big screen.
Hu Xianxu was asked to speak a talk show one day
In order to better present the status of aliens in the film, director Wu Ershan, who has rich experience in the "Fengshen Performing Arts Training Camp", opened the "Irregulars Training Camp" to Conduct casting and training.In addition to the familiar global auditions and harsh elimination system, the actors also have to study traditional martial arts, traditional culture, professional performance and other courses, as well as regularly try out makeup and report on performances. "Wulshan Strict Selection" plus "Devil Training Camp", the crew used ingenuity and perseverance to create a unique alien world. In order to get closer to the character image, Wu Ershan conducted "special training" for Hu Xianxu in addition to martial arts training, asking him to tell a talk show for everyone every day, so that he could develop the same ability and ability to "open his mouth anytime, anywhere" as Zhang Chulan. Strong psychological quality. Li Wanda was nominated for the Academy Award for Best New Actor for the movie " Ip Man 4". This time she will play the role of Feng Baobao, a martial arts expert. For this purpose, she has learned Bagua Zhang, Bajiquan, Tai Chi and Xingyiquan. After completing the filming, she participated in the Beijing Traditional Martial Arts Championship and won the first prize in the youth category of women's Bajiquan.
Naran and Narnaqi, who shined in " Fengshen Part 1 ", just left the "Fengshen Performing Arts Training Camp" and then entered the "Irregular Training Camp". This time they will appear A completely different look. In order to fit Xia He's charming temperament, Naran not only learned Baguazhang, Bajiquan, Snake Fist, Xingyiquan, Tai Chi, etc., but also mastered new skills such as riding a motorcycle, and her every move was soft yet strong. It fully shows the beauty of four ounces and a thousand pounds. In order to adapt to Feng Shayan's "Hundred Steps Fist" ability, Narnaqi, who was glimpsed in the easter egg of "Apotheosis of the Gods Part 1", specially learned the Fanzi Fist and the Through Arm Fist. Combined boxing techniques. In addition, young actors such as Lan Xiya and Wu Jiakai also trained hard in the training camp and polished their roles carefully. I believe that the sincerity and hard work of the creators will eventually be presented in every move on the big screen.
