Earlier, director Shi Jie has cooperated with Master Kong Co. and made a very vivid Master Kong character. The customer set up the tone of modeling virtual idols, made Cheng Xiao and virtual idol Xu Xingyou in a joint endorsement MV. However, the filming coincided with Shanghai's risk control quarantine, not only the budget is tight, but the whole industry is depressed. The producers are brave when the timing is very bad. Because the filming can only be implemented in Hangzhou, the production conditions are greatly limited.
After repeat discussion between producer and director, they decided to use the budget as much as possible for special effects to reduce the pressure in the early stage. The directors and producers left Beijing 15 days ahead of schedule for the film. The director's consistent practice is that a large number of preliminary design and preparation, art drawings and PPM previews are all available that client can receive a complete perception of the film. The early execution is very smooth, but a huge volume of work is left for special effect, which is burden on Taiwan i-two team(賞霖). The team was moved by director’s enthusiasm and the creativity of the film, and used all the human resources. The director himself undertook the design work, accurately planned, designed the filming. In just two weeks, he completed the amazing special effects work that fulfilled customer request successfully. When watching the gorgeous effect, the director did not cheer, but sighed that the special effects film could work well, there is still a long way to go.
