in 2006, Ning frequently re-casts actors who he has worked with,
especially Huang Bo and Xu Zheng (as well as himself in cameo

the set of the Hao-directed movie Crazy Alien. In the video, the dog

video was taped by a member of the movie crew. TMZ reported a
representative of the movie saying there had been a design flaw with
the suspended cage and that it had twice fallen into the water being
completely submerged after spinning out of control; a whistleblower
claimed that between shots, the dog was worked into a frenzy so he
would bark as loudly as possible, and that this had been done on
several takes. The director did not give a statement, but Crazy Alien
actor Matthew Morrison said he was heartbroken about the abuse.Ning
