Xu Jinglei’s "Kidnapper" releases Valentine’s Day photos, multiple interpretations of love

Bai Baihe, Xu Jinglei


Directed by Xu Jinglei, the action police and bandit film starring Bai Baihe, Huang Lixing and Ming Dao released a set of "multiple interpretations of love" pictures on Valentine’s Day, which made people imagine the emotional ripples and cooperation opportunities of the four creators inside and outside the play. Several creators also revealed many on-set stories during the filming process, and released some of the plot characters in the film in advance. It is reported that the movie "The Kidnapper" will be officially released on April 1.

Love is a long-term love, Xu Jinglei Bai Baihe met for the first time in ten years


A police mother who lost her daughter, director Xu Jinglei felt that Bai Baihe was the best candidate for the role. In order to show the best character state, the crew hired a professional action directing team to conduct a brutal two-month special training for the actors before filming. During the training, Bai Baihe, as the heroine, has been training with illness. "Bai Baihe is very hard-working, and his body has long been blue and purple, and he is not squeamish at all." Such a serious attitude was certified by the director.


During the filming of this film, seeing the director deal with many affairs decisively on the scene every day also made Bai Baihe feel "very safe." When he saw Old Xu in private, he had another face, "Every time I see her, she is very happy." The two have been together for more than ten years, and the cooperation of "The Kidnapper" also generates mutual joy.

Ming Dao, Huang Lixing


Love is an argument, Xu Jinglei and Huang Lixing’s studio face off fiercely


Huang Lixing has co-starred with Xu Jinglei in the workplace romance film twice, and also participated in the cameo two years ago. The two who have cooperated many times are not so "polite" in their working state. This time, director Xu Jinglei challenged the action police film "The Kidnapper" for the first time, and Huang Lixing also upgraded to a tough guy look.


The Virgo Huang Lixing is a real "logic control". He plays a wanted man with amnesia in the film, and he often argues with the director on the set over the logic of the film. "Ask me a lot, I’m going crazy." Xu Jinglei complained bitterly. But such discussions provide more new ideas and perspectives for the film, prompting the director to think about these issues repeatedly and actively seek solutions with the team.

Ming Dao, Xu Jinglei


Love is a reunion, Xu Jinglei will meet again after many years


By chance, Xu Jinglei met him in Mingdao’s studio many years later.


In everyone’s impression, it was still Mingdao who looked like an idol drama star. The image when they met this time also made Xu Jinglei completely unexpected: "Tanned, tall and strong, very man, not very trimmed." It was exactly the same as Lu Ran in her mind.


It was also this re-acquaintance that made Xu Jinglei invite Ming Dao to join "The Kidnapper" and play the role of the Serious Crime Squad Sheriff. During the filming of the movie, Ming Dao, who had rarely shot action scenes before, worked hard to participate in training for the role. Ming Dao’s serious and hard-working attitude once again surprised the director and partners.

Huang Lixing, Bai Baihe


Love is tacit understanding, Bai Baihe Huang Lixing’s studio plays the code


The characters of Bai Baihe and Huang Lixing have a little emotional connection, "a fleeting ambiguity". However, due to the overall rhythm and logic of the action film, this emotional content was weakened in the film.


But this "emotion" has established a considerable sense of tacit understanding between the two. Because there are many fighting scenes in the film, Bai Baihe and Huang Lixing also set a password for an action rhythm to be consistent, and an action is deliberately repeated more than a dozen times in front of the camera, like a child who loves to play.


Love is to cherish each other, Huang Lixing, Mingdao, cooperation and mutual respect


From the hip-hop singer on stage who is full of energy, to the actor Yang Nian, who handles his characters with meticulous ease on the set of an action movie, Ming Dao can’t connect the person in front of him with the "Huang Lixing" in his mind, even when he is playing opposite scenes. Huang Lixing also expressed his great love for working with Ming Dao. "His charm is because of his hard work," and he was amazed by Ming Dao in the interview.


As the two main male actors in the film, Huang Lixing and Ming Dao went from being unfamiliar with each other to respecting each other and becoming good friends in private. Although the two are facing off against the police in the film, they cherish each other outside the film.

The film "The Kidnapper" is produced by Beijing Flower Blossom Film Company and will be released nationwide on April 1.
