In the entire history of Hong Kong films, "Crazy Calamity" also has its unique status.

This movie is Xu Anhua's debut work, telling a murder and ghost story in literary and artistic ways, thus opening the prelude to the new wave of Hong Kong movies.

The movie will break the box office record of Hong Kong art films as soon as it is released next month. It is hailed as the first film in Hong Kong to consciously explore the narrative mode, techniques and functions of the film, and will win three awards at the Golden Horse Awards next year.

The filming location of "Crazy Job" is a small street in Longhu Mountain, Hong Kong Island. Because the place is too remote, Kang Jian flew to Longhu Mountain and searched for more than half an hour before finding the crew.

The film only invested 850,000 yuan, and most of it was used to pay the actors.

Because the main actors of "Crazy Job" are all popular stars, in addition to Zhao Yazhi, there are also Zhang Aijia, Xu Shaoqiang, Wan Ziliang, Lin Zixiang and others.

Even his photographer Zhong Zhiwen was a famous director and Best Photographer for the Film Awards in the future.

The reason why she was able to invite so many popular stars is mainly due to director Xu Anhua's wide connections. Although she is only the first time she has been a film director, she has a good relationship with many stars. For example, Zhao Yazhi promised to play the heroine, and the salary she received was only a friendly price.

As for other places, the budget was pushed to the extreme: there were only one street or alley in total, and the crew did not even have art guidance.

Except for some major actors, the other actors in the entire movie are all residents near the filming location who come to make free guest appearances, which is simply saving money and saving home.

When Kang Jianfei found the crew, Sylvia Chang and Zhao Yazhi were in the opposite scene, while Xu Anhua, as the director, only stood aside and watched quietly.

Stop for a moment!

After all, Xu Anhua is a woman. When she is not satisfied with the actor's performance, she is not as fierce as other male directors. Instead, she walks to Zhang Aijia and Zhao Yazhi and explains carefully: You are arguing just now. Aijia, your expression should be paid special attention to, and the inner scene should be more complicated.Because the heroine is your friend, she killed someone but implicated an innocent person to take the blame. You are very conflicted and painful inside... As for Azhi, when you talk to Ai Jia, you must have a resentment in your tone, and then exert a little bit of it...

There were very few people at the filming scene, with less than 20 staff and actors in total, and the rest were residents coming to watch nearby.

Because this drama is adapted from a real murder case, which happened here that year, so residents nearby were curious about how the director would shoot it.

After more than an hour of continuous shooting, the rivalry between Sylvia Chang and Zhao Yazhi was finally over.

The crew also moved to the stone steps more than 200 meters away. Next is the scene between Zhang Aijia and Xu Shaoqiang. Zhao Yazhi can finish work and go home today.

Kang Jianfei was watching them filming from afar. Seeing Zhao Yazhi changing clothes and finishing work, he hurriedly chased after him and shouted: Sister Zhi, wait a minute!

Zhao Yazhi looked back and saw that although she had not met for half a month, she immediately recognized Kang Jianfei. She had a deep impression of Kang Jianfei and said in surprise: A Fei, why are you here?

Kang Jianfei smiled and said: I'm here to find you.

Looking for me?Zhao Yazhi looked at Kang Jianfei in confusion and found that his eyes were clear and bright, and he didn't look like the kind of man trying to harass and pursue her. He was a little surprised what Kang Jianfei did to her.

Kang Jianfei explained: That's right, Uncle Tianlin is preparing to shoot a new drama and wants you to play the heroine.I am the assistant director of this drama, and today I will find you to coordinate the schedule.

Zhao Yazhi was a little surprised why Kang Jianfei suddenly became an assistant director, but she didn't ask the bottom line, but asked, what kind of drama is it?Costume or fashion drama?Who plays the male lead?

Kang Jianfei said: The plot takes place in Shanghai in the 1930s, and the male lead is played by Chow Yun-fat.

Zhao Yazhi twitched her hair on her ears and asked: When will the shooting start?

Kang Jianfei said: It depends on when Sister Zhi has time.

Zhao Yazhi thought about it and said: "Crazy Job" started filming before "Chu Liuxiang" and was completed in at most five days.

Kang Jianfei calculated the day and asked: Then what if it is scheduled for No. 25?

Yes, just call me to notify me.As the two of them said, they had already walked to a car. Zhao Yazhi took out the key and opened the car door and asked, "Do you want me to give you a ride?"

Zhao Yazhi's car is an orange-red Ford Fiesta. This car was launched three years ago. It is characterized by fuel efficiency and small and fashionable models. It was launched in Asia only last year and is very suitable for women to drive.

Kang Jianfei opened the door and got into the car honestly and bluntly, and said with a smile: There is no need to send me away. Just take me out of this alley. When I came, I took a long way to go around.

The car door was not closed yet, a young man in a white suit suddenly ran in front of him. He looked at Kang Jianfei with some vigilance, and then smiled and said to Zhao Yazhi: Azhi, I happened to pass by here, so I came over and take a look.Are you free this afternoon?Why not go have a coffee together.

Kang Jianfei reacted for more than ten seconds and finally remembered that this man was named Huang Yuanshen, who played Huo Yuanjia and sang "The Great Wall Never Fall" on CCTV Spring Festival Gala. It was a bit hard to recognize when changing into a short jacket and wearing a suit.

Huang Yuanshen seems to have had a scandal with Zhao Yazhi, which was revealed by Ng Junru many years later.

Is there no scandal true?

He is a married person, and this thing is an extremely immoral extramarital affair.

Kang Jianfei has always been critical of this shameless behavior.Well, absolutely that's it.

It seemed that because Kang Jianfei was there, Zhao Yazhi looked quite embarrassed and said to Huang Yuanshen: No, I still have something to do today.

Huang Yuanshen looked at Kang Jianfei and couldn't help asking: Who is this gentleman?

Before Zhao Yazhi introduced her, Kang Jianfei had already got out of the car and held Huang Yuanshen's hand and said with a smile: Hello, I am the assistant of Uncle Tianlin's new drama. Today I am here to discuss the schedule and scripts with Sister Zhi. I'm afraid she won't have time to go to coffee with you.

When Huang Yuanshen heard that Kang Jianfei was here to discuss work on behalf of Wang Tianlin, he didn't say anything more. After all, Wang Tianlin could not afford to offend him, so he could only smile at Zhao Yazhi and said: Azhi, since you have something to do, let's talk about it another day.

He nodded to Kang Jianfei again and said, Goodbye!

After Huang Yuanshen left, Zhao Yazhi saw Kang Jianfei’s ambiguous smile on his face and quickly explained: A Fei, Mr. Huang and I are just good friends we can talk to. It’s not like you thought, don’t go out and talk nonsense.

Kang Jianfei said innocently: I didn’t think too much, Sister Zhi, you are too careful.

Zhao Yazhi felt that Kang Jianfei's expression was too owed, so she couldn't help but roll her eyes, and then started the car without saying a word.

Kang Jianfei was bored, with his elbow on the passenger seat, and his chin was tilted while watching Zhao Yazhi drive.

Zhao Yazhi will turn 25 next month, and she has a mature charm, which fascinates Kang Jianfei.

Her movements were very gentle and elegant when she drove, but her eyes were fixed on the road ahead, and her expression was always tense and dared not relax, as if she was driving in a war.

It is obvious that Zhao Yazhi's driving skills are not very good, and she is still a little nervous when driving.

Kang Jianfei was staring at her like a ruthless person. How could Zhao Yazhi not know?

After driving for a while, she couldn't stand Kang Jianfei's scorching eyes and turned her head and said: Hello, it's impolite to stare at a lady like this.

Kang Jianfei smiled shamelessly: It is human nature to like beautiful things. If you want to blame, you can only blame Sister Zhi for being too beautiful. I really can't control my eyes.

Seeing that Zhao Yazhi's face was not kind, Kang Jianfei knew that if he talked about it, he would only make her hate her. He immediately sat up straight and apologized and said, "I'm sorry, Sister Zhi."You know that I have just come from the mainland and have never seen a beautiful woman as beautiful as you, just as holy and beautiful as a fairy in the sky. I only admire you, and never have the desire to blasphemy.

Kang Jianfei's words were teasing before, and then he apologized openly, and then he praised his heartfeltly.

Moreover, from the beginning to the end, Kang Jianfei's tone was so sincere, without a trace of frivolity in it, which made Zhao Yazhi, who was teased, really not angry, but instead felt a secret joy of being admired and praised by the opposite sex.

Lying is also a skill. Combined with a specific tone and expression, expressing the sincerity in the lie will often achieve good results.

For example, at present, Zhao Yazhi clearly knows that Kang Jianfei is full of lies, but subconsciously listens to him as a sincere praise.

A happy smile appeared on Zhao Yazhi's face, but she quickly lowered her smile and pretended to be angry: What are you talking about?I'm a woman with a boyfriend.If you want to fall in love, Sister Zhi will introduce you to a beautiful woman.

Kang Jianfei was shocked when he heard this. Didn’t Zhao Yazhi get married in 1975? Why is it a boyfriend rather than a husband? Could it be that these two worlds are not exactly the same?

I was shocked but did not express it in my expression, but said in a very serious tone: OK, but I have to be as beautiful as Sister Zhi, otherwise I wouldn't like it.

Go and come to tease me again. Zhao Yazhi didn't pretend to be angry at this time and said with a smile, there are a few girls in the stands, and I will help you come out to meet you some other day.

Kang Jianfei said righteously: No, I am still young and should focus on my career.I said that I would open a film company within one year. This time I was working as an assistant director for Uncle Tianlin to accumulate experience.

Yes, young people should have ambitions and work harder while they are young and cannot get married too early.Zhao Yazhi said softly, so I have been in love for several years and have not gotten married.

When Kang Jianfei heard Zhao Yazhi's words, he was immediately delighted and knew that there was something wrong with her relationship.

Poaching is a technical job, I am afraid that the city wall is too hard and tight, and there is no way to start with even the cracks.

If the wall itself had opened a hole, it would be much easier to do. If you pry it along the gap, you would have pried out two bricks!
