"By the way, how come you guys are in Thailand too? Are you here to shoot a movie?"
After sitting down, Chen Yiyang asked Cheng Sicheng why he came to Thailand.
"I bought the rights to a film. Because the subject matter is sensitive, it's difficult to shoot in the country, so we're planning to shoot in Thailand."
"Which movie?"
"An Indian film, 'Drishyam'." Cheng Sicheng replied.
"I think I've seen it."
Thanks to the many movie review bloggers online nowadays.
Chen Yiyang has watched general content explanations of any decent movie worldwide.
"We bought the rights to remake it, planning to reproduce the film."
"That indeed should be filmed in Thailand." Chen Yiyang agreed, nodding.
'Drishyam' is about a middle-aged man who kills a privileged young official's son for harassing his daughter, and to avoid detection, he engages in a battle of wits with the police.
This kind of subject matter, if set domestically, would definitely not pass censorship.
