The plot of the second part is completely fictional; Cao Kun is certain that the real Jigsaw never experienced it.
Because in the second movie, Jigsaw was confronted by the police from the United States.
The rebellious son of the M country police officer who led the team was also captured by Jigsaw.
But in reality, this doesn't exist.
Jigsaw was only arrested once, the time he was framed by Cao Kun.
However, with the release of this second film, combined with the news of Jigsaw's arrest, viewers might mistakenly believe that it's a true recreation of the actual scene.
Cao Kun then gave the final approval, confirming that there were no problems with the script.
This film can now officially begin pre-production.
The first thing to do is to calculate the budget.
This is where Seiko Yamashita, a professional accountant, comes in.
Now, Seiko Yamashita is no longer a lone commander; she has recruited two people to assist her in her work.
These two people are very knowledgeable about Hollywood affairs, which can make things much easier for Seiko Yamashita.
After three days of deliberation, the budget for Saw 2 was set at $3 million.
Cao Kun doesn't know the original price, but it's definitely higher than this.
However, the original filming took place later than it is now, and prices and labor costs were higher then.
If inflation is taken into account, the difference shouldn't be too much; in fact, it might even be slightly higher on his end.
After the first batch of special funds was allocated, the casting for "Saw 2" officially began.
In all other aspects, Cao Kun completely delegated authority to James Wen, Ray Warner, and Clark, and he only had one request.
Female characters in horror movies must be beautiful and have a good figure.
In addition, try to dress as lightly as possible.
The deeper you show your cleavage, the better.
Anyway, it's an R-rated movie, so as long as there's no nudity, it's fine.
Even if it's for a role, all it takes is makeup and a change of clothes to make a beautiful woman look ordinary.
But her figure has to be top-notch.
What kind of people watch horror movies?
More than 80% of them are men.
Do men prefer to look at ugly women or beautiful women?
Do you prefer small or large sizes?
That goes without saying.
…………
Seiko Yamashita is too busy.
She had just finished budgeting for "Saw 2" when "Fast & Furious" was waiting for her.
Cao Kun also assigned her a task: to negotiate with the copyright holder of the old film of the same name and buy the right to use the title.
Otherwise, when the movie is released, the other party will sue them for copyright infringement.
Then, it will cost even more.
Of course, there was another important task: to keep an eye on the time and pay taxes for Cao Kun.
In addition to these tasks, she was also responsible for collecting the poisonous substances that Cao Kun used to concoct Gu.
In other words, the special relationship between Cao Kun and her.
If it were someone else, they would have quit long ago.
That evening, Seiko Yamashita returned home more than an hour later than usual.
Behind her was a small van.
As soon as she reached the door, she called Cao Kun for help.
Once outside, Cao Kun opened the back door of the cargo compartment and saw several large cardboard boxes inside.
There were some small ventilation holes punched in the lid of the box.
Without even handling it, Cao Kun knew what it was.
He had been searching for those poisons for a long time.
Since the Holy Son of the Mountain has brought it back, it means that the collection is complete.
Carrying the boxes back into the house, Cao Kun opened them and his eyes lit up.
Inside were exactly the various poisons he needed.
Moreover, all of these are genuine wild varieties, not the kind cultivated in a biological laboratory.
These things all carry the natural essence of the earth.
He is a promising candidate for practicing Gu poison.
Seeing Cao Kun's expression, the Holy Son of the Mountain asked for praise, "Master, are you satisfied?"
Cao Kun smiled and praised, "Well done, Holy Son."
The Holy Son of the Mountain smiled and said, "I'm glad the master is satisfied, but these things aren't cheap."
Cao Kun: "How much did it cost in total?"
Seiko Yamashita: "All the miscellaneous things added up, it's probably more than three million US dollars."
If you're buying a biological laboratory, this amount of money could buy hundreds, even thousands of times more.
"Three million or so isn't a lot." Cao Kun thought the price was a good deal.
Labor costs are already high in country M.
These things are all poisonous, so there's a risk involved in catching them.
More importantly, the quantity of these poisons is simply too large.
There are hundreds of varieties.
The quantity of each type is in the hundreds.
Added together, it amounts to tens of thousands.
On average, each one costs less than $100.
So many pure wild poisonous creatures for just over three million? That's really not expensive.
Of course, it would be much cheaper in other poorer countries.
However, it will also take more time.
With Cao Kun's current wealth, there's no need for him to waste more time on such a small amount of money.
For him, the time and money spent could be earned back several times or even dozens of times over.
With these hundreds of poisons, Cao Kun could finally refine the natal Gu he had always wanted to create.
The natal Gu that Cao Kun was preparing to refine was the Golden Silkworm Gu.
As mentioned earlier, the Golden Silkworm Gu is not made from silkworms.
Instead, it is made from 120 different poisons, prepared according to a special ratio and secret method.
(To prevent anyone from actually trying this, the proportions and secret methods will not be described in detail here.)
Cao Kun then took out a pre-prepared earthenware jar, selected one hundred and twenty vigorous poisonous creatures, placed them inside, and closed the lid.
Late that night, Cao Kun went to the Hollywood Walk of Fame alone.
If we're talking about the two most popular places in the US, one is Times Square in the Big Apple.
Another place is the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Every day, tourists flock to these two places.
It's already past 3 a.m., and you can still see a few figures every now and then.
Of course, it's hard to say what these people do.
Following his memory, Cao Kun found a busy intersection and placed the earthenware jar in the very center of the intersection.
Immediately, he flicked his hand, and a Yin talisman fell to the ground.
Cao Kun made a hand seal: "Use the evil energy to control the qi, open!"
Something amazing happened.
A hole appeared at the bottom of the pottery jar, which was then swallowed up.
As soon as Cao Kun released the magic seal, the hole quickly disappeared, and the ground returned to its original state, leaving no trace.
Thus, the earthenware jar containing 120 kinds of poisons was buried in the middle of this crossroads.
This is one of the most important steps in the Golden Cicada Gu technique.
A crossroads means that you can go anywhere.
The flow of people is like drawing in the yang energy and vitality of ten thousand people.
In such places, the poisonous creatures devour each other, giving them an extraordinary power from birth.
Of course, if they are buried directly, there is no oxygen underground, and these poisonous creatures will die quickly.
However, with Cao Kun's secret Gu-refining technique, there is no need to worry about this.
At the crossroads, it must be buried for 99 days before it can be unearthed.
Only if the last poisonous creature inside is still alive after it is removed can the next step be carried out.
If all the poisonous creatures inside die, or if there is more than one, it is considered a failure.
We need to start over.
