"All or Nothing" continues the insight and profundity of the producer Fang Bad Monkey's label in realistic works. In the director's previous film "The Beneficiary" of the Olympic bid, he used "insurance fraud" as the starting point to reveal the human struggle behind a marriage scam; this time "All or Nothing" is the first time on the big screen to show the horrifying inside story of an overseas fraud factory.
The film starts from a programmer who strays into a fraud factory, a "beautiful dealer" who actively seeks profit and becomes a tool of fraud, a victim whose family is ruined by online gambling fraud, a manager of a fraud group who is greedy for profit, and who has no law enforcement power abroad but never gives up. From the perspective of the people's police who safeguard the safety and interests of citizens, they describe the routines of cyber fraud factories and the complicated human nature mixed in them.

Multiple perspectives to truly show how fraud is carried out
On the same day as the premiere, the film crew released a special feature on prototype characters. The prototype characters in the film appeared, telling their real experiences in overseas fraud factories, and telling the real scene of purgatory behind the Internet fraud industry chain. Crimes without a bottom line, closed and harsh environment, pervasive fraud methods... are all tragedies that really happened in the mouths of the prototype characters. Zhang Yixing and Jin Chen's encounters in the movie are just the tip of the iceberg of defrauding the factory. The real shady scene is far more terrifying than the movie.
"In the early stage of project preparation, a friend in real life chose to commit suicide after losing about 500,000 yuan due to online gambling and online fraud. During the interview and research, a policeman in a second-tier city told me that within a month, five students were Fraud to commit suicide." The director's bid for the Olympic Games bluntly said that these things had a great impact on him, which made him decide to set the style of the film as a film with serious themes.

Through the perspective of different characters, the movie goes deep into how the fraud factory works, and how the victims' money and lives are lost step by step.
The film is based on tens of thousands of real fraud cases across the country. The inspirations of Zhang Yixing, Jin Chen and other characters and the encounters in the film all come from the director's research. Before filming, the film team cooperated with the police and the anti-fraud center to collect all the news, photos, videos, etc. related to overseas cyber fraud in the past three years. The construction of the film comes from these massive first-hand real materials. "The script was written for a year and a half, and tens of thousands of cases broke them up, gathered some details, and made it into what it is now." Said the Olympic bid.
All fraudulent links finally presented in the film are extremely industrialized and professional. The screws in the interest chain of different divisions of labor are interlocking. From collecting personal information through big data, to "following what one likes" to attract people's greed and unwillingness step by step to the point of no return. After the large amount of money was transferred, multi-line parallel editing made "Selling Stolen" a thrilling blockbuster texture comparable to "Last Minute Rescue". "The risk is lower than that of drug trafficking, and the profit is higher than that of drugs." With the development of science and technology, new types of fraud methods are becoming more and more convenient.
And the slogans of "go crazy first if you want to succeed, rush to money desperately" and "get rich for three generations once, and work hard to not fail" are not only pyramid scheme brainwashing of defrauding factories' pre-job training, but also directly point to greed, selfishness and quick success in human nature. weakness. Some people succumb to violence, and a large number of people are willing to become tools of crime after seeing the wealth that "honestly working" can't get in a lifetime. Everything becomes real and believable.
The lead actor Zhang Yixing was brutally tortured in the film. Talking about his experience in shaping the characters, Zhang Yixing revealed after the screening, "The director gave me a 1TB hard drive before the filming started. It contained detailed pictures, videos, news reports and real cases. Gradually explored the heart of the characters, and walked into Pan Sheng's world of "there is no worst, only worse."

One more person sees, one less person is deceived
"If one more person sees it, one less person will be deceived", this is the slogan of the movie, and it is also the true feeling of everyone after watching the movie.
"Mobile phones have made our lives more and more convenient. It is very convenient to order takeaways and taxis, but it also makes Internet fraud pervasive. Under this premise, I hope that every audience will be more vigilant, and I hope this movie will make everyone pay attention to it. Wake up, crimes are happening, remind relatives and friends around you to pay more attention and take precautions, this may be a rare crime that can be restrained through previous warnings.” The Olympic bid talked about the original intention of the film creation very sincerely.
In the auditorium, the anti-fraud policemen in police uniforms saw the movie closely related to their daily work for the first time and deeply resonated.
"This is not only a commercial film, but also an anti-fraud promotional film and an educational warning film. I hope that everyone watching the film can be vigilant and beware of telecommunications and network fraud." The Ninth Detachment of the Criminal Investigation Corps of the Shanghai Public Security Bureau participated in the viewing Inspector Zhou Jie said.
Actor Ma Yili, who watched the movie at the scene, said in his post-screening speech, "Such a movie has merit." "Many times, painstaking publicity is useless. Bring it to everyone, let everyone be vigilant. Such a movie will definitely have a very good box office." At the same time, Ma Yili also encouraged Zhang Yixing on the spot, praising him for "having a very vivid face and a bright future".
Zhang Yixing himself also agrees with the significance of participating in this film. He also said at the premiere ceremony, "I have always said that I am not traffic, because I think traffic is meaningless. But if I can star in this film, it will help everyone prevent Being deceived, I think the traffic should continue to flow.”

At the end of the film, after the seemingly bright and successful closing of the net, a meaningful camera adjustment stopped at a close-up of a mysterious man playing with gambling chips. Regarding such an ending setting, the Olympic bid stated that he hoped to tell the audience, "There is no way to eradicate Internet fraud, and it will continue to breed. We can't just relax our vigilance just because our drama kills this gang."
At present, "All or Nothing" is the first crime film to reveal the inside story of the entire industry chain of overseas cyber fraud, and it focuses on current social hot issues. The film will be screened nationwide from 14:00-21:00 from August 5th to 10th, and will be released nationwide on August 11th.
