Chapter 272: New Police Story (Part II)
The next performance is a bit beyond the ability of Jack Cheng in the past, because the gangster who can force the living mouth is dead, and he has to open a gap from this and that senior police officer who is watching him in a very short time. This is obviously going to do illegal and criminal things, Jack Cheng experienced a short period of psychological struggle here, and then took advantage of his feelings for his daughter to pass smoothly.
Here, the Chinese gang boss did him a favor and sent him a translator who knew Tagalog, because he knew that Chen Jiaju was going to get the Indonesian gang and the police officer, which was an opportunity for the Chinese gangster. Chen Jiaju did not refuse, which was obviously the help of bad people.
Because I used to be a police officer, it was easy and simple to solve the problem by doing my own people. Jack Chengtong guΓ² interrogated the younger brother of the senior police officer, and directly figured out the address of the high-ranking official's mistress, and the black money he collected and a series of criminal materials were placed in his mistress, so Chen Jiaju went directly to the high-ranking official's mansion and ruthlessly tied up his mistress, his mistress had to cooperate with the other party under the threat of Chen Jiaju, and Chen Jiaju promised to give her money to let her leave here. In fact, this mistress had already prepared her passport, and even prepared the criminal materials of the police officer, waiting for the opportunity to leave and destroy him, and the opportunity provided by Chen Jiaju made the two hit it off.
Nicholas Xie, who came to brush his face, was dressed as a dirty gangster, and was completely handsome by Shen Zhenghui, and the whole process was an expression of admiration for Chen Jiaju's calm and calm professional skills, and he couldn't be too demanding of him, the first post-80s actor in the future couldn't perform at all at this time except pretending to be cool, and under the pressure of Shen Zhenghui's aura, the cramped acting skills of his acting skills fit his current identity.
This is a role that Jack Cheng has never played, although it is said to be for his daughter. But his overall appearance is somewhere between good and evil, and in this special place in the Philippines, his expression has won the approval of the audience, who emotionally sided with the father who wanted to save his daughter, and what he did became emotionally and intellectually acceptable, especially after recognizing the overall evil of this Southeast Asian country. Even the gangsters began to accept it as part of the whole of society, after all, when the government was also evil, the underworld became a positive, legitimate order.
So, although he was annoyed by Chen Jiaju's behavior and the incompetence of his subordinates, he still rushed to his mistress's house after his mistress was summoned, and then he was tied up by Chen Jiaju. He saw with his own eyes that his mistress had betrayed him. handed over the evidence of collecting black money and violating the law to Chen Jiaju, and then left with his savings for many years. This is not only a physical injury to the high-ranking official, but his mistress actually spit on him in front of outsiders, saying that he was forced to be a mistress, and in fact, he has always hated him. This naturally sparked a backlash from high-ranking officials.
Children probably don't understand this paragraph, and only understand the superficial meaning on the screen. But in fact, this is Ning Huan's hidden deep ridicule, not only against the Philippines, but also at China itself. The argument that anti-corruption relies on mistresses has been vividly brought into play in the setting of this plot. The mistress's scolding of the corrupt official and the greedy scolding of the corrupt official to the mistress are even more deeply expressive of this contradictory knot. There is a certain mismatch between the needs of the mistress and the things that the corrupt officials can provide. Therefore, in the end, it is very likely that it will be the end of the common destruction of miè, which can be regarded as a kind of irony of Ning Huan for reality. I hope to see the reaction of some people to the number of seats, and now it seems that it is completely a pearl cast.
The corrupt official fell into a devastation after seeing his mistress take his savings, and at this time, Chen Jiaju showed his cruel side. It is not the same as beating a gang member in a police station, but it is all kinds of psychological and physical destruction. Nicholas Xie watched almost with a panicked expression as Chen Jiaju wrapped the household wires around this guy's body.
"I'll ask you again," Chen Jiaju said, "where exactly are they talking about the place of the deal?" How to get in? β
The stubborn guy eventually suffered from the development of civilization in the industrialized society, and in the end he had to make an honest confession, and then with some kind of hope. "Now you can let me go, right? My savings were all taken away by that woman, and I can help you. β
"I didn't expect to get your help from start to finish." Chen Jiaju pressed the switch, and then the guy fell down in exclamation.
"He's dead?" Nicholas Xie was terrified, "Big brother, he is a police officer, or a senior police officer." β
"yes, so he just passed out, and by the time he woke up, we'd have done our job." Chen Jiaju said calmly, this kind of mercy is completely different from the kind of pedantic justice that he used to like in Jack Cheng, "You bring these things back to your boss, he knows how to do it." β
Nicholas Xie accepted the criminal evidence handed over to him by Chen Jiaju with a blank face.
"Don't you need me to help you?" Nicholas Shea said, "You don't know the local Filipino language. β
"I don't need to understand." Chen Jiaju said, holding a pistol and bullets from the house, "I just have this thing." β
"There's a lot of that gang."
"It's useless when it's crowded." Chen Jiaju replied.
But Nicholas Shea, who was full of admiration for Chen Jiaju, insisted on being with the hero, and he tried to convince Chen Jiaju that even if he knew English, he would not be able to run amok in the Philippines, many Filipinos did not know English at all, and could only speak the local language, especially in the underworld, a relatively low-level cultural group, and in the end, there was another reason to support his follow-up journey, "I know Indonesian." β
So Chen Jiaju left the place with Nicholas and drove to the vicinity of one of the two trading points, which is a low-level clubhouse, where some of the trafficked girls are sent directly to work as sex workers. Chen Jiaju rushed in directly to find someone, and then met Gillian who was injected with drugs inside and was already unconscious.
Naturally, Asa was in another trading place, which was a high-end clubhouse, and as a high-end product, she was auctioned off in a market similar to an auction, and there were various other girls in the auction room, American girls, European girls, Russian girls, etc., Chen Jiaju calmly sorted out the equipment. Saying goodbye to Nicholas, he rushed straight in.
There is no long-term funny vaudeville performance in Jack's usual style in this movie, as if the eldest brother has completely forgotten his housekeeping skills. In this movie, he tries to take out the enemy in a concise and effective way like a soldier, and the gunfight is full of tension caused by dexterity, and the cold weapon combat when a few short bullets run out of bullets to change guns and bullets. It's also clean and neat, and it kills with one hit. This sudden change of style makes many people uncomfortable with the rhythm, as if Jack suddenly transforms into Jett, no, Jett's fights are not so concise, and the tension of this shot is full of brutal realism and beauty. Many people don't appreciate the subtleties of this, and simply think that the battle scene makes people nervous and can't breathe.
However, Ning Huan, the guy who began to become an insider, has a vague understanding, from "Fenglin High School" and "Black Fist" a long time ago to this "New Police Story", Shen Zhenghui seems to have undergone some kind of evolution. His battle scenes have come out of some kind of elaborate imitation, the continuation of previous styles, and the innovations of others out of a way of their own, called the requirement of storyline rationalization. Jack's usual comedy and juggling are different from the style of this film, so he was simply abandoned, and the action design adopted a choice that fits the storyline, which in turn adds tension to the plot table, like the result of careful design. But Ning Huan knew that the action design of this movie actually didn't take too much effort from others, and the specific design and requirements were all put forward by Shen Zhenghui. The action department is done directly. It can be said that the literary drama and martial arts of this film are highly unified under the command of director Shen Zhenghui. Whether it is the family class or the Yuan family class, they will not be in this way and style of expression. This proves. The director's skills and control have risen to another level.
Ning Huan's thoughts had already drifted to other aspects, and the subsequent plots almost flashed in front of him. Chen Jiaju saved his daughter and escaped from this high-end club, and Nicholas was outside to answer him. At this time, the police and other gangsters also appeared, and other gangsters wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob. The police swept up because of a series of things that Chen Jiaju had caused in order to save his face. The police's crowd tactics worked, but fortunately, Nicholas didn't really go, but stayed in a righteous manner, and the robbery of other gangsters also disturbed the police's sight. So Chen Jiaju was able to escape with Nicholas and his daughter.
After the tense plot passed, the atmosphere in the movie and the movie theater began to ease, and Chen Jiaju began to arrange for his daughter and his daughter's friends to return to Hong Kong. Whispers began again in the cinema. Chen Jiaju himself is on the wanted list, and it is clear that he cannot leave the Philippines normally, and he wants to send his daughter and his daughter's friend TongguΓ² a travel agency back to Hong Kong, and then find a way to smuggle them in.
At the same time, the senior police officer was asked to resign because of the report of his peers (in the film, it seems that the boss of the Chinese gang did this thing in the background, the purpose is his position) (just asking for resignation shows how dark the police scene in the country is), this guy is full of resentment, hating Chen Jiaju at the same time to the Hong Kong people, when he was ordered to hand over the gun, wearing a police uniform, with a gun with a bullet, on the way to the police station, he saw Asa and Gillian at a glance, finally remembered the photo that Chen Jiaju gave him at the beginning, so he immediately hijacked the tour group bus that was going to the airport to return to Hong Kong after completing today's trip.
He demanded that the police reinstate him, ask for a pension, etc., and then paid special attention to Asa and Gillian, with a certain pleasure of revenge, in fact, he wanted to beat his daughter to death in front of Chen Jiaju.
Because the tourist bus stopped at a hot spot, the hijacking incident was on the news all of a sudden, and Chen Jiaju, who was discussing with the gang boss how to smuggle the money, suddenly found out that his daughter was actually hijacked by the senior police official. In a hurry, he ran to the scene.
At this time, the mayor had already arrived at the scene and began to take full command. So the whole film returned to the climax at the end, and the follow-up development was the reenactment of the Hong Kong hostage incident in the Philippines, the police force at the scene was simply incompetent to the extreme, they burst the tires and tried to hit the car window with a sledgehammer, but the result was not opened, but was suppressed by the other party with firepower, and the assault failed.
After the defeat, the negotiators rushed to the scene. Claiming that the police were discussing the feasibility of an order to restore him to his position, hoping that he would release the old, weak, sick and disabled hostages, the guy became anxious and pushed Chen Jiaju's daughters Asa and Gillian together at the door of the car, pointed a gun at their heads, and shouted for Chen Jiaju to come out. Say, "I know you're there, if you don't want your daughter to die, come out for me." β
Chen Jiaju, who was already at the scene, snatched a policeman's rifle at the scene, rushed into the scene of the blockade, and pointed his rifle at the other party. Seeing Chen Jiaju's appearance, this guy immediately shot, and Gillian pushed Assa, but he was shot in the back. He fell to the ground and said in a confessional tone, "It's all my fault." β
Asa's expression at this time is still quite qualified, fully expressing the interweaving of remorse and fear and sympathy. Chen Jiaju still calmly pointed a gun at the other party.
"Looks like it's not your daughter." The villain began to chatter, babbling about how hard he worked to climb to this position, and now that this qiΔ has been ruined by Chen Jiaju, how he wants to take revenge on Chen Jiaju, just before he finished speaking. Chen Jiaju shot decisively and hit with one hit. And then he said. "A pistol is not as fast as a rifle." Then he turned to the Philippine police and shouted, "Such a good opportunity, why don't your snipers shoot?" β
A group of policemen rushed up and pushed Chen Jiaju to the ground, and in Asa's crying, Chen Jiaju was taken away.
He was first sent to a senior inspector. "I should thank you," he said, "because that guy is dead, and his expulsion would have been the final punishment." β
Chen Jiaju obviously understood this sentence. He struggled a little harder, and was pressed even harder.
The other party's face changed, "You have violated the laws of the Philippines, no matter what the reason," he approached Chen Jiaju and said in a low voice, "Stay in the Philippines and go to jail!" You guy who doesn't play by the rules of the Philippines. Although you helped me. β
The screen goes black.
This was a huge blow to moviegoers, who almost mistakenly thought that the movie was over, and many people cursed. But soon the camera turned, and the next appearance was a diplomat with the national flag pinned to his chest, this young man was obviously the diplomatic staff who had appeared before in charge of receiving Chen Jiaju to the mainland for exchanges, he had a straight face, used familiar diplomatic rhetoric, and came up with all kinds of evidence to ask for the extradition of Chen Jiaju to take away. The Philippine diplomats' various strong arguments were refuted by him to the fullest, and there was no evidence to prove the charges they had given to Chen Jiaju, and the only thing that was put on Chen Jiaju was to seize the policeman's gun and shoot the kidnapper, but in the end, the diplomat took out the order signed by the president, and then Chen Jiaju was brought out with a haggard face.
This kind of plot setting can probably be regarded as a hidden plot to please the mainland government, because I have never seen a similar plot in previous movies, which makes people feel a little bright. The diplomat and Jack Cheng said a lot about the heroes of the central government's request to come forward to rescue the Hong Kong hostage-taking incident that had been resolved. The other party deliberately kept silent about the cause and effect of the whole thing. In the end, the diplomat said that because of Chen Jiaju's merits, he personally owed Chen Jiaju a favor, and Chen Jiaju could ask for anything.
So at the end of the movie, the daughter who had eliminated the estrangement from her own father still didn't know what to say when facing her father, Chen Jiaju took her daughter to the Hong Kong Orchestra, and a female singer was rehearsing. Her high-pitched singing voice immediately surprised the audience in the movie theater, "This is ...... Major General, right? β
The diplomat walked over, "The general has a flexible schedule for this charity performance in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan," he said, "and she is also interested in teaching your daughter." β
Asa showed a look of surprise and hugged her father warmly, "Can I learn to sing with her?" β
Ning Huan, who was watching a movie, almost squirted out the sip of water he had just drunk.
Such a vulgar bridge was realized, and Ning Huan was dumbfounded.
Then the whole story ends and the subtitles start playing. But the audience seems to be still immersed in the plot. Some people can't help but discuss, "If you kill that policeman at the beginning, won't there be such a thing in the end?" Gillian who was still harmed died. Why did she push Asa away? β
"She was injected with drugs," argued, "probably knowing that she couldn't quit drugs, and it was all caused by her going to the Philippines to play, so she must have felt guilty too, so she pushed Asa along." You see that she is obviously addicted to drugs in the end, and she has no chance to drink methadone. β
Ning Huan didn't participate in this kind of discussion, even if his younger brother and girlfriend were talking right not far from him. What Ning Huan was thinking about was: Jack Cheng's acting style and style have completely changed in this movie, and Lao Shen can actually do this. When writing the script, Ning Huan couldn't imagine how Jack Cheng acted, and his memory was still stuck on what Jack Cheng looked like before.
Ning Huan, who was full of words and wanted to speak, couldn't find a suitable person to talk to, he was wandering around the county town alone, his heart was excited for a while, and he suddenly had an urge to rush back to Japan immediately. (To be continued......)
