1905 Movie Network News On the afternoon of January 6, the theatrical movie "Under the Skin" held its premiere in Beijing. The film's director Wu Yong, screenwriter Liu Xiaofei, and starring Li Biao participated in the post-screening audience exchange activities.

The movie "Under the Skin" takes "Stone Gambling" as its theme and tells the story of the protagonist Qin Dazhi's life philosophy that changed dramatically after he was deceived by gambling on stones. Wu Yong has previously directed short films such as "Tea Eggs" and "Nostalgia", and "Under the Skin" is his first theatrical film.

“What interests me most about this story is its multi-line narrative structure. There have been similar movies before this, such as “Crazy Stone”, “The Chaser”, “Maze of the Heart”, etc. "Wu Yong admitted that he was fascinated by the multi-line narrative structure of the film. In addition, he also said that the script of the film is also very interesting and can especially reveal some of the dark sides of human nature.

Liu Xiaofei said frankly that the creation of the script originated from a chat with a friend who was in the jade business. During the chat, his friend told him some real events around stone gambling. At that time, he found these stories very dramatic, so he came up with the idea of ​​writing related scripts. During the later writing process, he also consulted a large amount of relevant information to make the script more authentic and credible.

"This movie was shot in Beijing, and many interesting stories happened during the period. For example, I also learned about jade and bought stones." During the filming, Li Biao's most vivid memory was his trip to Panjiayuan to buy jade. He took a piece of jade and made it into jewelry.

The film was approved in December 2019 and completed in Beijing on January 14, 2020. Later, due to the epidemic and other reasons, it was not released for a long time. On January 9, 2024, "Under the Skin" will officially be released in theaters nationwide.
