Chapter 86 The Theory of the Refrigerator
"I'm sorry to be born as a human being", I'm afraid that no one understands the meaning better than Jiang Ya, before he met Wei Wei, every day of reality was no different from purgatory for him, and there were almost few happy times in his life, for him, this world was absurd.
He usually lives as if he is dead, and the walking dead is enough to describe that before coming to this city, his life was a torture, the ultimate torture, so this led to the fact that when Jiang Ya came to this strange city alone, he had to work very hard to make others think that he was very relaxed, in order to make others think that he was just an ordinary person, his life was not peculiar, and his past was not so noteworthy.
He worked hard to become what he thought was "ordinary".
Later, in this city, he met the girl he liked, and had a family with her, and he also had a stable income, and at that time, he thought that he was living the ordinary life of his dreams.
This matter is actually a very peculiar thing for Jiang Ya personally, so strange that he can't believe it, so he cherishes it unusually and refuses to relax in the slightest, so even after Wei Wei's accident, he still takes care of his wife without complaint, day after day.
In Jiang Ya's heart, Wei Wei is the only one who is willing to love him, is willing to touch his head, is willing to hug him, and is willing to touch his fragility...... For Jiang Ya, Wei Wei is the only ray of light in his life, the light that can illuminate his whole life.
Fang Mu's behavior of rescuing Wei Wei was not wrong, and it was not wrong to want to use Wei Wei to defeat Jiang Ya's psychological defense, but what was wrong was that Fang Mu underestimated Jiang Ya's dedication to Wei Wei, and also overestimated Jiang Ya's rationality in dealing with things related to Wei Wei.
For Jiang Ya, when the awakened Wei Wei appeared on the screen, the only light in his life was extinguished.
At that moment, Jiang Ya, who had even been robbed of the only light in his life, collapsed for the first time, as if at that moment, he returned to the darkness abandoned by the whole world, and in this world, there was nothing left for him.
The panic of being cut off from the whole world pervades this moment.
Fang Mu thought that his strategy was about to succeed, he let the murderer who had always kept calm and sanity collapse, and then naturally let him speak, so that this case that made the police fall into a huge controversy had an end, and the city light that defied the law had an end, but he still underestimated Jiang Ya, and with this series of behaviors that stimulated Jiang Ya, it directly became the key factor that caused Jiang Ya to go out of control.
Fang Mu's last shot made Jiang Ya completely turn into a person who couldn't suppress his madness.
I have already said before that Jiang Ya is stubborn and self-conscious, and when the two character factors of stubbornness and self are put together, it will evolve into an extreme paranoia.
So at this time, Jiang Ya, who lost Wei Wei, seemed to have lost all the shackles and became a madman who was only paranoid, and this madman was very likely to have given up his yearning for life because of a series of shocks.
Jiang Ya, who was completely disappointed in this world, was left with indifference in his heart.
Killing Liao Yafan has some meaning of revenge, but there is also some meaning of letting Fang Mu kill him, on the surface, Jiang Ya opened his mouth, saying that he wanted Fang Mu to become the light of the city, but probably only Jiang Ya himself knows, this is not exactly his real purpose.
With that comes the final liberation.
As we said before, Jiang Ya is unlucky, he thinks he is the light, but the fact is that he can only live in the endless dark night, there is no way out, the original family has caused his distortion and pathology, and he creates new evil with what he thinks is good, and when the life-saving straw that he finally breathes on is taken away, he has no desire to live, only a shell that relies on paranoia to persevere.
So it can be said that Jiang Ya's last madness is a countdown game, in this game, there are two parties facing each other, one of which is naturally the designer of his game, and is the adherent party of the justice of "City Light", and the other side is naturally the police represented by Fang Mu, who is the destructive adherent of "City Light".
This is a collision of two different ideologies.
Even if he Jiang Ya has no meaning to live at the end of this year and wants to find his own liberation, he still has to prove the correctness of the existence of his once wavering belief and the meaning of his belief before this.
He wants to show everyone with facts that the existence of City Light is justified.
Even Jiang Ya knew in his heart that his actions were paranoid and meaningless, but he still wanted to see what kind of scene this final ending would be.
So after he killed Liao Yafan, he stayed in the encirclement of the police like that, and confessed his crimes in front of all the policemen's heavy faces and painful Fang Mu.
However, Jiang Ya, who wanted to anger Fang Mu and make Fang Mu the light of the city, thus proving that his insistence was not wrong, did not expect that Fang Mu, who was furious, still did not kill him even though he had a gun in his hand.
The second interrogation began, and the subject of this interrogation was shifted by Fang Mu to Jiang Ya's childhood.
The scars of the past were torn apart little by little by the terminator he chose in front of him, and Jiang Yaju sat quietly like that, listening to the very mean language of the person in front of him.
He suddenly found that in fact, he was not as glorious as he imagined, it turned out that he was still the powerless person who raised his axe to face his father because of violence, when Fang Mu clearly restored those things he once wanted to bury, he was still afraid in his heart, and that fear was deeply rooted, making him sensitive. Irritable, even if he listens to other people's statements, he can't hear the slightest bit, those things that he once thought he could completely stop caring about, it turns out that he still cares, or rather, he never lets go.
The so-called Jiang Ya has changed from a pervert with psychological trauma to a normal and ordinary person, which is completely a lie he used to numb himself.
After so many years, he has never stepped out of the shadow of the year, nor has he become an ordinary person.
Feelings of helplessness, fear, and fear are constantly intertwined, along with infinite doubts about themselves...... At that moment, Jiang Ya was really stripped naked and stood in front of everyone.
In the first interrogation, Jiang Ya was completely out of control because of Wei Wei's departure, and the second interrogation, the uncovering of the old scars, made Jiang Ya feel great pain and made him doubt himself.
The faith that had been shaken in the first place became less firm at this time.
The self-denial that belongs to Jiang Ya has begun.
In this new script, the character of Jiang Ya is like being tortured in the name of "redemption", and the heaviness makes him almost breathless.
At that moment, Jiang Ya may not have thought about anything, but numbly thought that the game had not yet reached the result he wanted, so naturally it would not end easily, even if he suddenly found that he might not care about the final ending, but he still continued according to his previous plan.
He always has to find some meaning for his broken life, otherwise, how pitiful he Jiang Ya looks...... How can he be a poor person?
Therefore, Jiang Ya flatly denied his so-called surrender, and this huge interrogation finally only allowed Jiang Ya to be detained for ten days for obstructing official business.
Once again, he swaggered out of the police station.
Shortly after leaving, he continued his so-called "preaching" behavior.
Standing on the unfinished upstairs without the slightest protection, he called Fang Mu and once again put his life in the hands of his enemy.
At this moment, there is only one step between life and death.
And Jiang Ya's behavior finally made Fang Mu and the police in the whirlpool have to take some radical measures.
The initiative began to turn, and the situation began to change.
Jiang Ya began to fall prey in other people's traps because of his paranoia.
The last duel with Fang Mu came suddenly, but it seemed to be expected.
Mu Qing feels that the reason why director and screenwriter Xu Jizhou arranged the plot of Fang Mu and Jiang Ya's final fierce battle is to make the process of this ideological struggle manifest, so as to arouse the audience's thinking and let the audience truly distinguish whether the existence of "City Light" is reasonable in the process.
However, Mu Qing felt that the handling of this final battle was always a bit weird, well, how to say it? It seemed that something was missing, so the plot suddenly developed like this, and it always felt a little discordant.
Maybe I can also tell the director about this when I study the script? Mu Qing thought a little secretly in his heart, Xu Jizhou, who is both a director and a screenwriter, should not be angry and want to beat him at this time, after all, there is so much more workload......
In fact, in the setting of Jiang Ya, there are still some places that are not too good to talk about the past, such as his crime process and the crime scene where evidence can never be found, Mu Qing remembered that this matter was ridiculed by many people in his previous life, after all, according to Lokar's law of material exchange, this criminal will definitely leave some traces at the scene after committing the murder, and it is impossible to find nothing.
But at the crime scene in Jiang Ya, it was a setting where no favorable evidence could be found.
If he had to find a suitable reason for this setting, Mu Qing thought of Ted Tari's "refrigerator theory".
Ted Tari is the director of "The Lambs in Silence," and this "refrigerator theory" is his philosophy for his work.
He thinks that he has a lot of small details of the "refrigerator problem" in "The Silence of the Lambs", such as Hannibal stealing a pen and using the handcuffs to open the handcuffs to kill, when watching the movie, the audience focuses on the characters and the story, ignoring this detail After watching this film, when the audience comes home and turns on the refrigerator and blows the air conditioner, they will sober up and think, hey, how did he steal the pen? How did the pen open the handcuffs?
In fact, it is a bad word, that is, BUG, but in the screenwriting world, this is an unwritten "unspoken rule".
Sometimes, in order to achieve a certain degree of drama in the work, the screenwriter must make "some counterintuitive" settings, such as endless bullets, passers-by who know everything, and high-level executives who don't understand anything.
The most typical is "Indiana Jones 4", which greatly ridicules the "refrigerator theory", Dr. Jones hid in the refrigerator and escaped the nuclear explosion, and the audience is curious, what kind of material is this refrigerator made of? But in the screenwriting world, everyone will definitely laugh when they see this plot.
