"Where to Use" first exposed the overseas hostage industry chain Xiao Yang Qixi couple was kidnapped and only one person could live

Supervised by Ning Hao, directed by the Olympic bid, written by Xu Luyang, and starred by Xiao Yang, Qi Xi, Ren Dahua, and Zheng Kai, the film "Where to Use It" released a preview of the "Overseas Hostage Industry Chain" today. It exposed the large-scale inside story of the overseas hostage industry chain for the first time on the big screen-thugs abuse slave workers, cultivate child soldiers, secretly lay eyes, and even wantonly trade human lives. Foreign journalist Ma Xiao (Xiao Yang) and volunteer doctor Pan Wenjia (Qi Xi) were deliberately kidnapped. The only way to leave here is to pay a huge ransom of US$5 million. In war-torn areas abroad, massacres can occur at any time, and the two of them have to face the unspoken rules of hostage trading-it is difficult for the couple to pay two ransoms, and the thugs will often kill one and keep the other. If they want to live, they can only save themselves and escape! The film is based on the real self-rescue experiences of surviving hostages abroad and goes deep into the war-torn hinterland to survive from the perspective of ordinary people. It will be released nationwide on December 31, New Year's Eve.

The big screen reveals for the first time that the overseas hostage industry chain has a sky-high ransom of 5 million yuan per person who is overdue and killed

The latest trailer of "Where to Use" exposes the inside story of the operation of the overseas hostage industry chain for the first time. Audiences will directly target unprecedented terrorist atrocities on the big screen for the first time. In war-torn areas outside the country, civilization is out of order, and human lives can be worth thousands of dollars or worthless. Hostages from various countries who were clearly priced at "US$5 million" one second were brutally killed in the next. Innocent local children were taken away and brainwashed into "war machines" carrying guns to fight and pulling triggers. Local villagers may be spies of the thugs, and foreigners are surrounded and suppressed because they are "valuable", making danger everywhere. Foreign journalist Ma Xiao and volunteer doctor Pan Wenjia were about to return home, but they were accidentally involved in war and riots and became "hostages" and turned into "slave workers." Not only were they blackmailed to pay a sky-high ransom, but overseas Chinese businessman Zhou Weijie (Ren Dahua)'s kind reminder that "couples often kill each other and keep the other behind them" also made the two feel afraid to hide their identities. In addition to threats to human life, dangers in war-torn areas are also everywhere. Engineer Miao Feng (played by Zheng Kai) was attacked indiscriminately and shouted "Hide" to his companions regardless of his broken leg. At the end of the trailer, there was suspense. Ma Xiao led everyone to save themselves and survive, but they were caught up again. How could they get rid of the armed thugs who were chasing after them without any weapons? Which wife, husband, and companion will eventually successfully escape? I couldn't help but make people feel cold sweat. In a documentary style, the film stretches its lens into the dark area where there is little exposure on the big screen. The crew went overseas to shoot shots. The entire film was specially shot in IMAX, striving to restore the cruel atmosphere and human impact of the war zone.

Ordinary people's perspective reproduces hostage self-rescue through massive details to restore the truth of war and riot

"Ordinary people's perspective" and "real materials" have always been the key words in the director's Olympic bid. The movie "Where to Use" is based on the real self-rescue experience of surviving hostages abroad. The director's Olympic bid captures details from a large number of documentaries and memoirs of captured hostages, striving to truly reproduce the thrilling experience of compatriots being kidnapped abroad. The couple being arrested together and pretending not to know each other is part of the training content for foreign staff. He revealed: "Extremists will coerce their wives by threatening their husbands. These are real means in their operating mechanisms." At the same time, extremists will adopt a very primitive way to communicate. The director said: "They often hand in hand and see each other. They don't use the Internet or mobile phones, communicate through walkie-talkies, and pass all evidence through cars and bicycles."

The crew also strived to restore the art scenes."The cave where hostages were held was designed based on the descriptions in the memoirs. Not only did there be a kitchen to store food, but there was also an area where bombs were made to store ammunition." These little-known details were designed into the movie by the director, and before shooting, the director also prepared a data hard disk of about a few hundred gigabytes for each actor to help the actors enter the role faster. Xiao Yang lamented: "The director and the screenwriter provide a very realistic soil that will make people believe in these things." The film focuses on the hostage self-rescue process that has not been disclosed in the news, and immersively leads the audience to escape from the hinterland of the war from a new perspective. The characters are driven by their strong desire to survive and create miracles of survival. Qi Xi can't help but marvel at "seeing them." The resilience of vitality." Overseas violent attacks and other incidents are common, and the encounters in Ma Xiao and Pan Wenjia's films are also constantly staged in reality. The films truly reveal the cruel atrocities that are taking place on the other side of the world and the survival difficulties of ordinary people in war. Smoke is filled, and peace is always an eternal common vision for all mankind.
