Guo Yishan's eyes flashed with hatred: "How can I meet with the person who betrayed Ah Ming! When I was in Japan, it wasn't for Mr. Zhang, an overseas Chinese, who was afraid that something would happen and made up lies to send me back to China, and I wanted to kill him at that time!"

Guan Xiaozhou sighed: "Since that's the case, it's okay not to see it." But I hope you go to Peking and return to the chess world. The world has changed. Now is the time for you to show your ambitions in life, give full play to the talents of Jiangnan Chess King, and contribute to the people. ”

Guo Yishan looked at Xiao Ahui, shook his head lightly and said, "When I was desperate, she saved me. ”

The camera cuts to the edge of the Yangtze River, and Yi Yi walks into the Yangtze River with no expression on his face. The river was up to his waist, and he was still walking. Suddenly, a baby's cry rang out. Guo Yishan paused for a moment and continued to walk in the river. The baby's crying intensified. Guo Yishan finally stopped and looked back slowly.

The camera cuts to a deserted courtyard by the river, where a baby is crying for its life. The wet state Yishan looked down at the little life, bent down, and gently picked her up. The gray world slowly leached out of color, and the heart of the mountain like dead ashes came alive again.

The camera cuts back to the room, and Guo Yishan sighed: "I don't want to see Songbo, and I don't want to play chess anymore, as long as I can live quietly with my children for a few days." ”

At the Modu Wharf, the Dongying Go delegation walked down the ramp of the ship, and Matsuba was surrounded by his sister Shinobu and Hua Lin holding the urn. After Guan Xiaozhou shook hands with Song Bo, he told him that Guo Yishan did not want to see him. Songbo's eyes were gloomy, but he still said that he had to go to Wanghu Town to see the situation in Yishan. After getting into the car and looking at the scenery outside the window, Matsuba fell into memories.

In addition, Ah Ming is a Go genius, and after arriving in Toei, he was deeply respected by Matsuna, and became good friends with Matsuba's daughter Ba and classmate Morikawa. The time soon came in 1937, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out, and the entire Dongying was actively mobilized, and many parents took the initiative to send their sons to the front line. Morikawa was drafted by the military department and had to put down Go and go to the front to fight. Before leaving, he told Ah Ming to take good care of Ba and play chess well.

Fast forward to January '38, and the whole of Tokyo celebrates the victory. When Amin was celebrating with Ba in the restaurant, he met several Chinese students who were preparing to return to China. From their mouths, Amin knew the news of the massacre. Deeply shocked by the atrocities of the Toei soldiers, Amin decided to return to Japan like the other students.

Matsuba did not agree to Amin's return to China, and Morikawa fell ill and died on a ship bound for China, and he did not want Amin to die as well. He asked Amin to continue playing chess and win glory for the country. But Amin still left Songbo's chess hall and rejected Ba's wishes.

When Armin went to see Morikawa's mother, Morikawa's mother's words made him hesitate. Morikawa's mother said that Morikawa loved Go very much, and always said that playing chess with Amin was happy, and she hoped that Amin would continue to play chess no matter what he encountered, and play with Morikawa's share.

At Morikawa's cemetery, when Armin tells Morikawa about his inner struggles, Ba, who has been looking for him, runs over. Ba told him that the war was temporary, that chess was permanent, and that the government said that the war would soon stop. Ba also said that if it were not for that, she hoped to return to China with him as the wife of a Chinese. A pair of young lovers looked at each other in the snowflakes, and then hugged each other tightly.

Fast forward to 1941, when the Pacific War broke out. At this time, Kat gave birth to Amin's child, and he named the child Hualin. At the same time, Ah Ming, who had become a seventh rank, began to challenge the Heavenly Saint Throne. When Amin defeated his opponent in the last game and won the Heavenly Saint Throne, the people from the military department came. They asked Ah Ming to join Dongying because the title of Heavenly Saint Throne could not belong to the Chinese.

Ah Ming held a press conference according to the requirements of the military department, but did not announce that he would join the Dongying nationality according to the requirements of the military department, but announced his true thoughts, and announced that he would give up the Heavenly Saint position and withdraw from the Dongying Chess Academy.

The audience knew that Amin's actions had offended the military department, and the cause of Amin's death was about to be revealed. Unexpectedly, Matsuba's memories jumped to 1945, and Matsuba, who was wearing a torn military uniform and was weak, returned to Dongying. Prior to this, the color of the movie screen was a little weird, but at least it was colored, and by this time the color had been largely removed, leaving a large area of gray.

His sister Shinobu brother-in-law Enda, and people he knew persuaded Matsuba to play chess again, but he couldn't play chess again, and as soon as he picked up the chess pieces, he saw the broken fingers of Kuai Shan and the bloody chessboard.

In order to cheer up Matsuna, Onda mobilized him to go to the city of Go, near Hiroshima, to watch a Go match. As Onda rushed from Hiroshima to Itakachi, a B29 plane appeared in the sky. But when Onda saw the parachute dropped by the plane, a strong flash of light exploded, engulfing the whole world.

The news of the bombing of Hiroshima was broadcast on the radio, and Shinobu Matsuba cried out in tears. When Matsuba returned to Toei, the whole world was gray, and at this time, it was completely gray. Songbo turned into the walking dead and indulged in drunkenness all day long.

On this day, Dr. Zhang came to Songbo's house and asked him why he wanted to kill Ah Ming, and found that Songbo had completely become a waste, and no matter what he said, he did not react. Dr. Zhang said disappointedly: "You are no different from a dead person now, any kind of whistleblowing and murder, the way of making friends, the grief and resentment of the victim's relatives, all indifferent, it seems that my lie is in vain." ”

After Dr. Zhang left, my sister Ren walked out with Ah Ming's daughter Hua Lin: "Brother, you're not drunk at all, are you?"

Songbo remained silent, and poured wine with trembling hands.

Ren persuaded him: "It's okay if you want to quit chess, and I've had enough of living just to play chess!" But can you really go down as the dead as that person said? Brother, you have the responsibility to go to see Yi Shan and apologize to Ah Ming for his matter. If you don't become a new person and don't fulfill this responsibility, the murdered Amin, the Enda who died to help you, will not be at peace, and the crazy Ba will not be saved. ”

Two lines of tears suddenly flowed from Songbo's haggard face, but he still didn't say a word.

Ren said disappointedly: "Okay, brother, since you plan to do this, I'll leave." Drink it, drink enough, die on the road and pull it down!"

Matsuba, with blank eyes, watched them leave motionlessly. When they were far away, Songbo squatted on the ground, holding his brain and crying. In the sound of thin weeping, the gray world gradually took on a color, and although the color was very light and light, it was a light green that symbolized life.

Matsuba's memories end, and the film's perspective returns to the real world. Songbo and the others had already come to Lethe Lake Town and stood outside the courtyard of the Yishan family. Shinobu and Hua Lin walked into the courtyard with Ah Ming's ashes, while Songbo and Guan Xiaozhou were waiting outside.

After knowing the other party's intention, Guo Yishan took Ah Ming's ashes and said in a low voice: "Thank you for sending Ah Ming back, if you put it in Songbo's house, Ah Ming's soul will not be at peace, Songbo has Ah Ming's blood ...... on his hands."

Ren excitedly interrupted Kuang Yishan's words: "No, you have a misunderstanding about Ah Ming's death, so my brother has to come and talk to you no matter what." The elder brother did not betray Amin or kill him, his hands were clean......"

At this time, Songbo's voice came from behind: "No, it can also be said that Amin was killed by me!"

Matsuba knelt on the ground and began to remember. The news after Amin announced his withdrawal and renounced the Heavenly Saint Throne was suppressed by the military department, and they posted a news that Amin had joined the Dongying nationality. Amin was very indignant about this and decided to go back to China against all odds. Because Amin offended the military department and was under surveillance, it was very difficult to return to China, so he could only smuggle in. In order to get Amin and Ba to leave smoothly, Matsuma found the right-wing leader Hashimoto Takayoshi and asked him for help. Hashimoto Takayoshi agreed, but secretly informed the military headquarters of the news.

When Amin and Ba arrived at the dock where they were smuggling and were about to board the boat, Shimizu appeared with the military police. Amin knocked down a gendarme, pulled Ba's leg and ran. The gendarmes fired. The bullet hit Amin in the chest, and he collapsed in a pool of blood, and Ba went insane.

The scene cuts back to the real world, and Songbo kneels on the ground, bowing his head and saying, "It was I who killed Amin, my stupidity, credulity, and ignorance." Songbo took out Amin's fan and handed it to Kuang Yishan.

Guo Yishan gently opened the fan, and the word "Fenfei" was printed with black blood.

Songbo bowed his head and continued, "Soon after the incident, I was drafted into the army as a soldier. Send an old man who has long passed his service period and is nearly half a hundred years old to the front line to fight. This is the punishment of the military department. ”

The camera cuts to Dongying soldiers marching on a rainy and muddy field. Songbo, who was covered in mud, urged the horses to look at the baggage, and moved forward with difficulty. Songbo's voiceover: "I stayed in China for three years ......"

The camera cuts back to reality, and Yi Shan looks at Songbo with sadness, Ah Ming did die because of Songbo, but Songbo didn't mean to. He knew what to do, and turned around and walked out of the yard with Amin's ashes in his arms.

Hua Lin chased out of the yard and grabbed the situation. She told him that it was not just Ah Ming's ashes, but also Ba's, and that she had died of illness six years ago. When she was temporary, she always thought about going back to China with Amin.

Guo Yishan said bitterly: "Alas, if it weren't for that war, our family would ......"

Hua Lin said in Chinese, which is not very fluent: "It was the war that killed my father, but, grandpa, the war is over." You can't live in the past, you can't live in pain, and your parents in heaven will be sad to see you like this. ”

Guo Yishan looked at his granddaughter with tears in his eyes, and his heart fluctuated. He hurried down the bridge, crouched on the stone steps of the pier, covered his face with his hands, and wept bitterly.

The camera cuts to the Great Wall, where Chinese and Japanese chess players are partying. They climbed up in a team, bursting into laughter. Hua Lin took Xiao Ahui's hand and ran in front of his head. Guo Yishan, Songbo and Shinobi, and Guan Xiaozhou walked up side by side in the back. They walked breathlessly, but they all had smiles on their faces.

Standing on the beacon tower of the Great Wall, Song Bo asked Guo Yishan, do you remember that game of chess back then? Guo Yishan said, I don't know what happened, I always remember that game of chess in my heart. After 30 years of vicissitudes of life, the two of them regrouped and went down after 30 years of enmity and hatred, and then the game of chess that they didn't finish when they were young.

The high-altitude overhead shot, under the clear and bright sun, is the majestic posture of the ancient Great Wall and the vast and vast land. Immediately after, the subtitles crossed the screen, and faint music sounded.

When the movie ended, Roger Ebert let out a soft breath of air, as if after a long journey, and the whole person relaxed. At this moment, he heard a crisp applause, and he seemed a little lonely. He also stood up, clapped his hands vigorously, and the emotions that had been suppressed for two hours were released in the applause.

At the same time, Hannah Xugura, Jeanne Moreau and other guests also stood up and clapped their hands vigorously. Immediately afterwards, the audience stood up and clapped their hands silently. The huge applause turned the pitch-black screening hall into a flat boat in the ocean, and the entire screening hall shook in the tide of applause.
