After the release of "Home Alone", it caused a strong response in the film market, and the praise was overwhelming.

Major entertainment newspapers have followed up with reports.

"Yesterday the adults and children in the cinema laughed together, and I knew that this movie was a great holiday gift for children."

"There's no doubt that it's going to be a classic comedy movie."

"Don't be too entangled in the problem that the bad guys are not bad enough and the bad guys have low IQs, we just need to appreciate it with an innocent mentality, and then laugh out loud without any scruples, this is a successful movie."

"Many children are shouting that they want to be a smart little treasure, and many parents feel that this trip is worthwhile."

"Presumably, many parents who have watched the movie very much hope that their sons can also be as smart and clever as Xiaobao in the movie."

Under the reputation, the score of Time.com also reached 8.9 points, and its box office was also singing all the way, earning 300 million yuan within a week, and the audience who heard the news was also endless, and the attendance rate has been maintained at more than 40%!

Compared to other movies, the attendance rate of 10% or 20% is really much better!!

And the only one that can be compared with it is Hollywood's "Finding Nemo", and its reputation is also quite good.

―――――――――――――

On June 15, in a large warehouse on the outskirts of the magic capital.

At this time, the crew of "Shocking Demon Thieves" was nervously arranging the scene here.

Forty piranhas were fed, thirty extras, and a number of magic props, which were made by Li Gaofei himself.

Today, the crew is going to shoot a magic trick of escape in the water here, in addition to the escape in the water, it is also necessary to add a more exciting part to the movie - piranha.

The specific content of this movie is: the magician protagonist played by Shen Yao enters a tempered glass aquarium filled with water. An escape attempt was unsuccessful, and 1 minute later, forty piranhas dumped into the aquarium from above.

Some time ago. Wang Shang specially invited several foreign hypnotists and magicians to give lessons to the four of them. After more than a month of targeted study, several people basically mastered the manned floating bubbles, streamers, and short-distance teleportation that need to be used in the movie. And Shen Yao has also mastered certain skills in the escape technique......

The scene reporter and the assistant director were very curious about these magic props, and they moved and touched them, looked left and right, and then looked at the aquarium on the ground with a look of fear, and there was a group of piranhas swimming around, flashing with sharp teeth and cold light.

No one is not afraid of piranhas, many newspapers say that everyone is bitten by piranhas, and there are many clips of piranhas eating people and animals into skeletons in an instant. So its ferocity has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

They looked at the magician Li Gaofei and asked in shock and curiosity, "Is there really a magician who has acted like this?" And there is nothing at all? ”

Li Gaofei nodded: "There is, and many magicians can do it, and the one who created this magic trick is called David. High wave flying. He is a famous American master of escape. ”

Again, they asked, "Piranhas don't bite??" ”

Li Gaofei explained: "As long as the piranha is fed and there are no wounds on the person's body, the piranha will not bite. ”

After speaking, Li Gaofei calmly put his hand into the aquarium under everyone's frightened gaze, and the piranhas inside not only did not rush up to bite it. Instead, they hid in the distance.

Li Gaofei pulled out his hand, shook off the water on it, and said lightly: "The courage of the piranha is actually quite small, or ...... You guys try? ”

Everyone stepped back in unison, shaking their heads again and again.

Wang Shang explained to them at this time: "You don't have to worry too much. When the escape technique is performed, it is definitely not a piranha, but an ordinary pomfret, and as for the piranha, it can be set off with a movie lens clip. ”

"Oh, I see!" Everyone can finally rest assured now.

In fact, Wang Shang heard that all the magic tricks of "Shocking Demon Thieves" in the former time and space were done by the actors themselves, and they did not invite magicians to replace them, nor did they use movie lenses to opportunistically, I don't know if it is true.

It took almost an hour to prepare, and everything was ready.

It should be that there are not too many acting scenes in this scene, so there is not too much ng in the filming, and after an hour, this scene is all filmed.

"Let's go, next stop!! Magic City Oriental Opera Hall, shoot big stage magic!! ”

In the entire "Shocking Demon Thieves" movie, there are a total of three large-scale magic tricks, two of which are stage magic tricks and one large-scale illusion magic trick. And the two stage magic kings were arranged to shoot in the Oriental Opera Hall in the magic capital.

When the crew chose the scenic spots, they negotiated the conditions with Jiang Ping, the owner of the opera hall, and began to renovate the two largest theaters in May, which were used for two stage magic tricks.

When the crew came to the Oriental Opera Hall in the Magic City, Jiang Ping, the owner of the opera hall, was waiting at the door early, and as soon as he saw Wang Shang, he immediately stepped forward and shook hands warmly: "Director Wang, can I also play a cameo role as an audience in the movie." ”

Wang Shang pondered for a moment and replied, "All I can give now is an actor......

The corners of Jiang Ping's mouth overflowed with a smile, and Le Haha said: "The dragon is the dragon!" ”

"Okay! I'll arrange a good location for you. Wang Shang naturally won't object, anyway, there are no requirements for this audience, as long as An An is an audience.

There were as many as 400 extras this time, which was much more than the piranha escape in the water.

400 people sat in the theater, accounting for only a third of the seats, but now computer technology can copy, paste, paste and paste 400 people, and the theater that appears in the movie must be full.

Cameras, props and other things were successively moved from the car and carried into the theater, and then placed under the command of Wang Shang.

Wang Shang said to them: "Wait a minute, it's time for you to perform magic tricks, let me see the results of your learning during this time." ”

These two stage magic tricks were not fake like the water escape trick in the morning, but real knives and guns.

The four of them were full of confidence: "No problem!! ”

It took two hours to prepare, and all the props, cameras, sets, and everything was set up.

The crew is ready. Cameras, lights, reflective screens, etc. are ready. The extras are in place, and the main actors are all ready.

The stage lights were turned on, and the lights were bright in an instant, and the black glass bricks flashed brightly, and the whole stage suddenly became beautiful. In order to make the scene more eye-catching, Wang Shang's transformation of this stage is as delicate as possible, modern, and sophisticated, which fits the technical background of the whole film.

Wang Shang took the loudspeaker and shouted to the entire theater: "Silence!! ”

The theater, which was originally a little noisy, immediately fell silent, and Jiang Ping, the owner of the theater, looked at the stage with excitement. He was photographed next to the main character in this scene, the magic revelator, and he could get a lot of footage later. However, the benevolent brother next to him looked at him with a resentful expression: "How can you paralyze you rob me of my good position?" ”

"Ready!!"

"Act 40, Scene 3 has officially begun!"

“!!”

With the 'click' of the scene version, Xie Tingfeng and the other four magicians began to disperse on the stage according to the route arranged by the assistant director to the edge of the stage, and said to all the audience on the stage.

"Today we're going to perform a magic trick!"

"It's going to be a magic trick that Huaxia has never performed before!"

"There has never been a performance anywhere in the world!"

Finally, Xie Feng (played by Xie Tingfeng), the leader of the four magicians, stepped up the steps, stepped onto the center of the stage, raised his hands, and said to the audience: "Gentlemen, ladies! Tonight, we're going to rob a bank!! ”

The audience applauded!!

Jiang Ping was stunned at this time: "Magic? Robbing a bank? The meaning of the Amazing Demon Thieves is to use magic to rob a bank?? ”

Jiang Ping felt very pleasantly surprised, using magic to rob the bank, no matter how he listened to it, he felt a strange kind of stimulation.

Other extras who were not mentally prepared also felt the same way as Jiang Ping, hearing that magic was used to rob the bank, they felt fresh and exciting, and applauded even more enthusiastically.

There was nothing wrong with the actors' performances, so Wang Shang didn't shout to stop.

Xie Feng greeted the warm applause of the audience and said with a smile: "Do you expect a crime so much?? ”

Shen Yao shouted loudly: "I'm looking forward to it!" What about you? ”

The applause and shouts at the scene became more enthusiastic.

Wang Shang watched the performances of several people on the stage, felt quite satisfied, and motioned to the scene reporter and photographer not to stop.

"Does anyone want us to rob which bank?"

Quite a few extras wittily raised their hands! Shout at the same time!

"It seems that many people have a big enmity with the bank! Haha, then we'll pick one at random!! ”

Powerful actors are different, the plot that was originally split into several paragraphs was successfully passed by the improvisations of these actors one by one, although some lines did not fit the script, but Wang Shang felt good, so he didn't shout to stop.

Then it was a table tennis ball to choose a seat, and then the person in the seat was asked to choose a bank.

"...... of the Paris Republican Trust Bank"

"Bank ...... in Farland, EU" Xie Tingfeng paused, made a constipated and tangled expression of pain, and said very regretfully, "It would be good if it was a local bank in the magic capital, and it would be better to have a small credit union without security......"

"Hahaha!!" When the extras heard this, they couldn't help but laugh.

The performances of the leading actors and extras were very smooth, and the whole process was done in one go, without a single ng.

In an afternoon and evening, the first stage magic was done.

When the extras saw the 100-yuan red bills (prop bills) that filled the entire theater, they couldn't help but be stunned. Fortunately, the crew had already told him, so these dedicated extras made a reasonable 'money-grabbing' action.
