Baoqiang's consent made Jiang Yan's goal this time successfully achieved, the next thing to do is to find other actors and prepare for filming, as for funds and the like, with the large amount of money obtained by the casino as a backing, Jiang Yan said that the poor are only left with money!
"Brother Jiang, since you want to go to the mirror, then you can tell me about the drama first! It's good to be prepared in advance. "Baoqiang, who was born in the countryside, has the unique pragmatism of rural people, or don't do it, since you want to do it, you have to do the best you can, so although you hesitated before, you have decided to look in the mirror at this moment, and Baoqiang wants to do your best to do your best!"www.biquge.info
"Well, good!" Seeing that Baoqiang had put himself into his new identity so quickly, Jiang Yan was also happy in his heart. If Baoqiang, who decided to go into the entertainment industry, still demanded himself with the attitude of a migrant worker, Jiang Yan would not say anything, but he would be disappointed. Now that Baoqiang can adapt to his new identity so quickly, Jiang Yan expressed his gratification.
The movie that Jiang Yan is preparing to shoot this time is one of the classic works directed by Feng Xiaogang in his previous life, "There Are No Thieves in the World". "No Thieves in the World" is directed by Feng Xiaogang, Andy Lau plays the male thief Wang Bo, Liu Ruoying plays the female thief Wang Li, of which Ge You plays Uncle Li, and Wang Baoqiang plays Silly Gen!
The story is told: the male thief Bo and the female thief Li are a pair of pickpocketing partners and a pair of outlaw lovers who wander the world. However, because Wang Li was pregnant with Wang Bo's child, Wang Li decided to atone for her sins, so the two had a disagreement.
On a train, they meet a farmer named Silly Gen, who has just earned a fortune from the city and wants to return to his hometown to build a house and marry a wife. Silly Gen didn't believe that there were thieves in the world, Wang Li was moved by Silly Gen's simplicity and wanted to protect him secretly, Wang Bo initially wanted to attack him, but later he was moved by his simplicity, and also joined the camp to protect Silly Gen, fulfilling his dream of having no thieves in the world. As a result, the two and another pickpocketing gang sparked a series of open and secret fights.
The leader of the gang, Uncle Li, wanted to subdue Wang Bo but was refused, and the other members of the gang and Wang Bo were defeated in the competition, but the money was dropped by the lurking police, and then the police appeared and arrested both sides, Uncle Li, Wang Bo, and Wang Li all wanted to escape from the carriage, but they met. After Wang Li left first, Wang Bo was defeated with Uncle Li in order to protect the money of the stupid root, and when he was dying, he intended to alarm the police, and sent a text message to Wang Li to comfort her that she was okay.
This drama is completely composed of a number of thieves who fight around the stupid roots, but the police in the dark have been watching coldly! It can be said that the entire plot of this drama revolves around silly roots.
So you can imagine how important the role Baoqiang wants to play, so when he talks to Baoqiang, Jiang Yan also does his best to achieve the best!
In this play, Jiang Yan is ready to let Baoqiang play the role of Silly Gen, and for his role, he was ready to play the role of the thief Wang Bo at the beginning. But then he changed his mind and chose another role.
The police! This character, who only appears a few times in the plot, this character who looks like a trick, runs through the entire plot.
After carefully studying the script he had written based on the movie he remembered, Jiang Yan had a bold idea that the whole story would actually unfold under the surveillance and control of the police. The policeman appeared early, and no one would have thought that he was a policeman when he was at the train station!
It is precisely because of his good at hiding that he experienced the whole plot himself, but he only revealed his identity at the end of the plot. In this way, Jiang Yan thought that maybe they had determined the identities of the two thieves at the beginning and were ready to catch them all.
Although they don't seem to have too many scenes in the plot, and even except for the middle-aged policeman played by Fan Wei, everyone else doesn't even show their faces, but they play a vital role in the whole play.
People see two gangs of thieves engaged in a fierce and skillful battle on a train, but they do not know that all this is under the watchful eye of the police, who are silently watching everything unfold behind their backs.
From the moment Silly's purse was swapped, the policemen watched the situation as a stealth, and they seemed to have a very easy reason - just curiosity, and their duty in this play seems to be to sit in the shadows and watch the tiger fight.
So what are they looking at? Maybe they were going to arrest both parties at the beginning, but what happened on the train aroused their interest, and they were curious about one thing - the hero and heroine, the two thieves, why did they protect Silly Gen's property from being stolen by Uncle Li?
Exploring the reasons and analyzing the motives for committing the crime and "taking the facts as the basis" are exactly the principles of the police in handling cases. When the thieves are in a fierce rivalry, it is when the police have the easiest time to control the whole situation. They clearly knew that neither group could escape from the hands of the police, because they had already laid a large net. Therefore, the two gangs of thieves fought fiercely on the train, and a wonderful plot occurred.
It seems that the director has designed such a clue in the story: the police in the story can completely ignore whether there will be deaths and injuries in the fight between the two gangs, and even the personal and property safety of all passengers except for a few thieves is excluded from the scope of responsibility of the police. The police here are no longer in charge of the rights of citizens, they can make the necessary sacrifices in order to complete their mission, and these sacrifices can be made by anyone except themselves and the objectives of the mission. At the same time, we can only imagine that the cost of the price will be borne by both sides of the fight, and the police will only need to watch the fire from the other side, and the final attack will be a complete victory.
In the film, the director gave the police such a logic: as long as the police keep the 60,000 yuan of stupid roots, they are doing their duty, and the property and even personal safety of other passengers, whether the two gangs of thieves will be killed or injured has nothing to do with the police; Since there is no distinction between justice and injustice between the two gangs of thieves, the police do not care about a possible outcome until the truth of the fight is known: although they are thieves, the weaker party dies in order to recover the 60,000 hard-earned money of the stupid roots, and finally leave behind the beloved woman and the widow who will never see his father.
It is Feng Xiaogang who directs the film "No Thieves in the World", but the director of the tragedy in the film is the police!
It was such a discovery that made Jiang Yan choose this seemingly irrelevant or even brilliant police role, but it is indispensable to control the overall situation in applause!
