Chapter 15: Walking with God: Crime and Punishment (part 4 of 5)

Wu Ershan, after "Painted Skin 2", he fell silent on both sides, and created "Walking with God"...

This thing has an original comic, and the original comic is very simple - a few days of Hell Persuasion, in order to satirize reality.

On this theme, Japan has "Early Death and Early Reincarnation: Hell Rock Chapter"...

We have "Mu Lian Saves the Mother", the story of Mu Lian Saving the Mother, the earliest originated from the "Buddha Says the Bon Sutra", the Tang Dynasty has "Mu Lian Yuan", "Da Mu Ganlian Saves the Mother in the Underworld", the Song Dynasty began to move to the stage, and there are also "Filial Piety and Mu Lian Saving the Mother" miscellaneous drama in the Yuan and Ming dynasties.

The legendary script of the Ming Dynasty is adapted on the basis of changing texts and miscellaneous dramas, which is probably the story of good retribution and evil retribution...

The protagonist of the first part of "Walking with God" is firefighter Li Zihong, who was in danger of fighting a fire, and he hung up...

The three major emissaries of defense from hell appear...

All the deceased have to go through seven trials within 49 days of death, murder, laziness, deception, injustice, betrayal, violence, and family love, and only the deceased who have passed seven trials and are acquitted have the opportunity to be reborn.

If King Yama had reincarnated 49 deceased people within 1,000 years, the three messengers would have been reincarnated into the mortal world.

They believe that the 48th deceased, the noble man Li Zihong, who appeared in the past 19 years, can be successfully reborn.

The judgment of the seven layers of hell is sorted according to the crimes committed by the deceased in life from light to heavy, and Jin Zihong, who has the blessing of the identity of a nobleman, successfully passed the first five levels...

From the appearance of the perfect and righteous character, to the white lies in the trial, the non-stop work for the family, and the choices in front of life, the image of this character has been constantly raised.

Then when he went to the violent prison, Li Zihong's personality collapsed - he once used violence against his younger brother, and even wanted to kill his mother!

He ran away from home for 15 years because of guilt, but since then he has been desperate to earn money to support his family.

Violence, family...

Then there was a Korean tear jerker, and the mother forgave her son...

In addition, the younger brother also had an accident - he died unjustly.

The background and information are complete!

How to change?

It's very easy to do, the place of occurrence was changed to Thailand, Li Zihong's family of three are all Thai Chinese, he came to Hong Kong to be a firefighter, and his younger brother was killed by his teammates when he joined the army in Thailand...

There's no way, even if Tong Gang agrees that he can pass the trial, you have to change the background of the story to a foreign country, otherwise someone will really report it!

The propaganda of feudal superstition alone is enough to drink a pot.

......

280 million cost, Chen Kun, Hu Ge, Huang Bo, Chen Daoming, Feng Yuanzheng, Wu Gang, Ren Dahua, Liu Jialing, Liu Yifei, Hui Yinghong, Jiang Wenli, Jin Chen, it can be said that the stars are shining!

Seven halls of Yama, each of them is a big actor.

"Walking with God" is a big production of Mengxi, with big special effects, big actors and more directors, which can be said to play the mechanism of Chinese-style blockbusters.

The mother is played by Hui Yinghong, and Huang Bo is the male protagonist Li Zihong;

Chen Kun, Hu Ge, and Jin Chen, the three messengers of hell;

Chen Daoming, Feng Yuanzheng, Wu Gang, Ren Dahua, Liu Jialing, Liu Yifei, Jiang Wenli, respectively, correspond to the Seven Palaces of Yama...

If the premiere is in China, it is really..."The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China" is nothing more than that!

It's a pity that the premiere was in Cannes.

A group of actors, in addition to Liu Yifei's overseas popularity, a group of media are calling Liu Yifei's name...

Chen Kun is also okay, after all, the "Painted Skin" series is also a global best-selling series.

By the way, Liu Yifei is a cameo, she plays the betrayal of the king of hell;

Let's put it this way, except for the king of Yama played by Chen Daoming, the others are all special appearances - they are all paid for two or three days...

......

"You calm down, learn more from Chen Kun, look at others, how fanned!"

In the screening room, Shen Mengxi sat next to Huang Bo and muttered.

At the premiere press conference just now, Ya looked like a rookie, her expression was stiff, her eyes were wooden, and there was nowhere to put her hands...

"It's not my first time in Cannes, it's a movie show!"

“... I went to the Oscars first, and I didn't look like you!"

"People like you are naturally suitable for big scenes, I can't do it, I..."

"Let's watch a movie!"

Before Huang Bo's fart was finished, the lights in the screening room dimmed, the audience was quiet, and the big screen slowly lit up.

"Walking with God: Crime and Punishment" is officially open!

The reason why this movie cost nearly 300 million is mainly because the special effects cost money and time!

There are a lot of hellish special effects in the film, hell grinding plates, and seven hell spaces, all of which are CG plus real-life construction...

In order to create a realistic look of hell, the film art team visited various attractions around the world before creating CG special effects, such as the scene of murderous hell in the movie, which is based on the Kilauea volcano in Hawaii, which perfectly shows the appearance of hot lava, and the betrayal hell, which is a reference to the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia;

Reminiscent of the lazy hell of a leisure resort, it is actually an outdoor set in Xiangshan, where the art team airlifted a lot of bamboo from all over the country to build the bamboo raft mechanism.

The Hell of Lies, the Hell of Fire, and the Hell of Violence have all built their own large-scale sets that match the characteristics of hell.

Each hell has a different theme, with seven forms: water, fire, iron, ice, mirror, air, and sand, and the judgment of each hell is also in line with these seven elements...

It took half a year just to build these scenes!

The special effects of the hellbringer to fight in the sun, teleportation and spell condensation, completely reached the Hollywood level - before the release of "Doctor Strange", this special effect was used for the first time!

As for the outfit of the Hellbringer, it is a reference to Reeves in "The Matrix", a black suit, very handsome...

Okay, back to the plot of the movie:

Judging from the shell of the first hour, "Walking with God" is a film that celebrates Li Zihong's greatness...

He's just flawless!

He is kind, he risked his life in a fire to save eight people, and is known as a hero, and there are many deeds of sacrificing himself to save others;

He is hardworking, he wears many hats, working as a firefighter during the day, working in a restaurant at night, cleaning the bathhouse, staying up late to drive...

He did not rest a day before his death, and he was finally liberated until after his death.

And the reason why he is working so hard is because he has an old mother who is sick and needs treatment, and a younger brother who is still in school. If he hadn't worked hard to earn money, his family wouldn't have survived to this point.

He is warm, and after the death of a firefighter colleague, in order not to make his colleague's child Ji-yeon sad, he often pretends to be a colleague and writes to Ji-yeon: Dad will always be by your side. Don't get sick, live well...

Although Ji-yeon knew that Li Zihong was lying to her, she was very encouraged and rekindled her hope, not only obeying her teacher's words, but also getting along well with her classmates, even if her father died, she believed that her father would always be by her side;

plum

Zihong even wrote lies to his mother, such as that he was bitten by a wild boar, falsely claiming that it was caused by playing with his son, and for example, in order to keep his sick mother alive, he told his mother that he was married and had children, and lived a very happy life.

It was because of these lies that his mother was able to fight off her illness and live happily.

If Li Zihong had told his mother the truth, saying that he had worked many times and worked day and night for his mother's medical expenses, maybe his mother's illness would not have healed...

This is a human being, a saint!

The Three Emissaries had agreed with King Yama that if they succeeded in reincarnating 49 deceased people within 1,000 years, they would have the opportunity to reincarnate and be free to decide their own persona.

Li Zihong is their 48th nobleman, and he is just a little bit away from success, so they are doing their best to help Li Zihong.

They told Li Zihong that if he successfully passed the trial, he could give his mother a dream before reincarnation - Li Zihong also became combative!

When going to the hell of lies, there was an accident, time accelerated, and a gang of monsters besieged them - this means that Li Zihong's immediate family was killed, so the boss of the defense trio, Chen Kun, went to the yang world to investigate...

His younger brother Li Xiuhong was mistakenly killed by a colleague and died a very painful death, so he turned into a resentful spirit and turned the world upside down.

Of course, after that, Li Xiuhong chose to forgive the murderer who killed him negligently, and he also told Chen Kun: My brother hasn't come back for fifteen years!

Li Zihong went to the hell of violence,

When he was a child, he fought with his younger brother and even tried to kill his mother with a pillow, which made the judge angry and vowed to punish him severely;

Even the messengers who have repeatedly helped Li Zihong can't bear it, believing that there is no possibility of forgiveness for him beating his younger brother and attempting to kill his mother.

This...

According to the hell judgment, you must be forgiven by the person concerned in order to pass the trial.

Even if his brother forgives him, can his mother forgive?

Even if Mother forgives, will King Yama forgive?

The defense messenger played by Jin Chen also wanted to help him argue, but Chen Daoming directly exported the shot: It turned out that on the day Li Zihong wanted to kill his mother, his mother had already opened her eyes...

She knew her son wanted to kill her!

But she chose to close her eyes, she knew that only when she died could the child be a little easier.

Her wish is that her son can come back to see her...

Huang Bo began to play, he knelt on the ground, tears and snot spilled on the ground, he begged Hades: "I beg you, let me go back to see my mother..."

"Why don't you do it when you're alive? Why don't you regret it when you're dead? Give you fifteen years, what did you do with it?"
