Ning Hao and Xu Zheng have come together again to produce a new film—Dying to Survive (《我不是药神》)—as they return to the summer movie season after 12 years.
This time, director Wen Muye joined the team after Ning Hao recognized his talent for showing true themes. It was Ning Hao who handed Wen Muye the play and asked Xu Zheng to act in the leading role.
The film is about Cheng Yong, played by Xu Zheng, a medicine salesman who becomes a hero by helping people get cheaper cancer medicine. The 117minute film combines both laughter and tears together, showing the humanity(人性) of one man up against the reality of society.
“It's touching because it pays attention to the better side of people, and you can see how society changes, thanks to just one small act of kindness,” said Xu Zheng at the film's premiere(首映) at Tsinghua University in Beijing on July 2.
The movie is based on a true story—Lu Yong, who got cancer in 2002, helped more than 1,000 patients get cheaper, unapproved(未经批准的) medicine from India.
Lu was invited to the movie's premiere, and after he watched the whole film, Lu said it shows what happens when people can't afford the imported(进口的) medicine. He agreed with the message at the end of the movie that the situation was improving thanks to the recent efforts of government.
