After the Huang Datou case, there was a tense atmosphere in the prison, and strict searches were carried out in various cells overnight, and countless contraband items were found, such as knives sharpened with toothbrushes, screwdrivers stolen from tool rooms, and iron rods and ...... removed from nowhere. Only Sun Ziming had the cleanest cell, and under the deterrence of the experienced Ah Hu, before the police searched, the prisoner consciously threw things into the pit, so no one was confined and punished.

After another three or four days, the atmosphere in the prison relaxed, and the prisoners were able to let off their breath and go to the library again. That afternoon, Sun Ziming was tired of writing the script in the picture, and when he heard the two policewomen gossiping in the corner, he learned that Huang Datou killed Ah Chan with his teeth, and he bit the throats of the two of them with his teeth, like a bloodthirsty beast.

"Hey" Sun Ziming sighed, and he didn't know whether he was sighing for Huang Datou or for this prison. The sigh attracted the attention of the two police flowers, and the two walked over, "Director Sun, congratulations!" ”

"Congratulations on what? Do time? Don't make fun of me, two Madam. "The grandson doesn't raise his head brightly, there are few women in this place, and occasionally I see two, no matter what age, appearance, and figure are, I will have a physiological reaction.

"You really don't know? Oh, martial law these days, you haven't seen the newspapers. Let me tell you, your "Gunfire" won another award at the Berlin Film Festival, Best Supporting Actor, Best Cinematography. Now all the newspapers and magazines are reporting your news. ”

Another police officer also gossiped: "A famous film critic in Berlin said, 'I guessed the beginning, but I didn't guess the development, let alone the result.'" This film should win another Best Screenplay Award. 'Director Sun, you're such a dick! ”

Sun Ziming was stunned when he heard this, can this film win the best supporting actor? Half a day before reaching out for the newspaper, "Madam, where's the newspaper?" ”

"Ah, you wait" The two policewomen turned around and ran, and even the round **** writhing in their police skirts did not attract Sun Ziming's attention. It's so sudden, this is an authentic Hong Kong gangster movie, can the Germans understand it?

After a while, two policewomen ran in panting with a copy of "Film Fortnightly" and a few newspapers, and Sun Ziming almost snatched it from their hands, "Congratulations to "Gunfire" for winning five nominations for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Cinematography, Best Screenplay, and Best Director at the Berlin Film Festival, and winning Best Supporting Actor and Best Cinematography' - "Film Fortnightly"

'The breakthrough of Hong Kong gangsters and action films: commenting on the pioneering nature of "Gunfire""

Last year, since I heard that Director Sun wanted to make a real gunfight film, the industry was not very optimistic about this film. Because its budget is too small and the time is too tight. After 12 days of shooting, with a budget of 3 million to shoot a shootout movie, what good film can be made?

As director Wang Jing said, when the script of "Gunfire" was reviewed by the 'Script Review Committee' of Light and Shadow Company, the jury was put down. Later, it was Director Wang Jing who persuaded the script jury to invest only 3 million, and Director Chong Sun's name couldn't be lost, so the later light and shadow company added 1.5 million funds.

The result? Five Silver Bear Award nominations, Best Supporting Actor, Best Cinematography! We didn't guess the result!

The author was fortunate to participate in the midnight show of professional film critics and fans of "Gunfire", and analyzed the success of "Gunfire" because of its innovation.

Since director Wu Yusen filmed "The True Color of Heroes", our Hong Kong shootout movies have been full of black coats, holding two guns, turning and shooting, blood splattering, jumping and slow motion, all of which are eating Director Wu's leftovers. And what about gunfire?

The biggest breakthrough of "Gunfire" is that it has a high degree of trust and requirements for the audience's viewing power, and the narrative layout has a large number of hints, dark scenes, omissions, meanings, and associations, and the points are up to the end. The whole film is smooth but the atmosphere is extremely depressing, ruthless but revealing a trace of warmth, and under a trace of warmth, it makes people feel the cruelty of reality.

This is also the reason why when the script of the light and shadow company was reviewed, there was no guò for the first time. Director Sun's film has too high requirements for the audience's appreciation, so much so that his number one general, Mr. Liu Weiqiang, has no confidence in the acceptance of Hong Kong audiences, and would rather not release it after four months, and take the film to Europe, where the audience can enjoy more.

So what are the specific features of this movie? Why is it causing a sensation in Berlin? My analysis is as follows:

Between the scenes, there are many static scenes to represent the waiting of each person. Due to the long period of silence, when a moving event (gunshot) occurs, it suddenly changes from static to moving, and instantly erupts with great explosive force.

The feature of the narrative structure, the film uses a large number of image compositions to highlight the cold and isolated image of the five gunmen. The dialogue is simplified to a minimum, creating an extremely depressing atmosphere, waiting for the time to move, and the repression will be completely revealed.

In particular, Anan played by Wu Yijiang, a "cold-faced little student", has three dialogues: when interrogating the fleeing bodyguard, 'he didn't die after ten minutes, let him go'; when he caught the inner ghost, after listening to his heart, he sighed softly, 'hey'; sue sù Ah Ghost, Ah Xin and his sister-in-law have a personal relationship, 'Ah Ghost, the sister-in-law has it, it is Ah Xin's'. Ah Ghost nodded, and went out with a solemn face, Anan turned around and picked up a chair and smashed it on the door, threw down the rotten chair and went to settle the account as if nothing happened.

Anan's extreme depression in front, and finally smashing the chair out of shape, and the movement after the static pole left the audience endless space for reverie. Wu Yijiang, the superstar selected by Director Sun from the little dragon set, became the first Chinese actor to win the acting award in the three major A-level film awards in Europe!

Another example is Liu Weiqiang's photography, in the shootout in the 'Parknshop' supermarket in Central, the difficulty of encircling the two brothers, five bodyguards, and seven gunmen under the long lens can be imagined, but he did it. Under the long shot, the wonderful gunfight scene is very explosive when it moves, but it makes people want to go crazy when it is quiet, exuding an almost weird charm.

Finally, I want to talk about the wonderful performances of other actors, after the shootout in the alley, Ah Lai went to question Ah Ghost. Ah Lai just gestured his hand into a gun and pointed at Ah Ghost from a distance, and Ah Ghost sighed, 'We are bodyguards'. The two best actors didn't have too much body language, just a simple gesture, a sigh, and anger and helplessness in their eyes.

There are also three supporting roles, Ashin, MIKE, and Fei, the three of them are also very distinctive, unlike ordinary Hong Kong movies, and the supporting roles are not outstanding.

When Ah Mike sent Ashin on the boat, he suddenly took out a gun behind his brother's back, struggled to put it down, and exclaimed sadly, "Ashin, one to four!" The struggle between brotherhood and self-interest is nothing but a trembling muzzle and a cry of sorrow.

Ah Fei's whole movie is also a dialogue, Ah Ghost called Ah Xin with his phone, and after feeling that something was wrong, he also made a call. When Ah Fei heard that it was Ah Xin's voice, he remembered the panic he and his sister-in-law had at the beginning, and hesitated, 'I'm not Ah Ghost, I'm Ah Fei'.

What is the implication? It's up to the audience to guess.

Finally, there are Japanese entertainers Masahiko Kondo and Dairo Uei.

After Kondo shot his sister-in-law, his face was expressionless, but when he saw the scene in the tea restaurant, he spat in Ah Ghost's face, why? It's up to the audience to guess.

Uei Dairo, too, has no dialogue. After a rainstorm, Ashin and her sister-in-law returned to the door of the house and tried to pull her hand down, and asked her to hurriedly open it with her hand, and both of them went to look at the surveillance camera in a panic. Just this one, looking at the surveillance in a panic implied that the two were having an affair. When Ashin heard Mike say 1 to 4, he also struggled and resolutely turned around. Between his own life and his brother's life, this young man, who had made a big mistake, made his own choice.

Finale? This can't be said, the biggest charm of this "Gunfire" lies in the final ending. In the words of Wiener Heisenberg, a member of the Berlin Film Festival jury, 'I guessed the beginning and development of the story, but not the end'

This person is a great talent, Sun Ziming read this movie review and hurriedly went to see who the author was. Ni Kuang? How did this big guy write a review for his movie? Oh, and in addition to writing novels, this big guy also loves to write scripts and bring his Wesley series to the screen.

Sun Ziming flipped through other newspapers, basically singing praises, almost never out of Mr. Ni Kuang's framework. It is estimated that they all use the views of the great gods to write their own articles and earn some manuscript fees for themselves.

Only today's publication of "Ming Pao", Sun Tzuming's royal reporter Luo Hui is insightful. He interprets this "Gunfire" from another angle - "gangs are just another kind of business, but its management system is called violence"

The murderer who secretly wanted to deal with Brother Wen was found out, and it turned out to be the most unlikely Fei Xiang, Anan sat in the restaurant, and after listening to his nagging, he asked his subordinates to shoot him. Why did Anan listen to the old fat man's nagging?

Because in Anan's mind, they are sorry for Fei Xiang! As the founder of their community, as he himself said, the gang was built by him and his father, and everyone contributed from one word to another. In the end, he and his eldest brother are sitting on hundreds of millions of family fortunes and are majestic, while Fei Xiang, the founder, wants to go to the casino horse and borrow money from the company's account. Where is the fairness?

In the end, Ah Ghost and Ah Lai discovered that Brother Wen's most secret subordinate, Kondo's car was outside the tea restaurant, and everyone shot without hesitation, and it was at the brother who had been forced to commit suicide. The righteousness of the rivers and lakes asked Director Sun to peel off the veil of warmth and vein, and present the cold and bloody hidden behind to the audience - righteousness is used!

Brother Hui observed really carefully, and he deliberately slapped Kondo's soaking saliva so obviously, which still made him see his original intention. Everyone is filming the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, and if you want to stand out in the rivers and lakes films, you have to find another way to be unconventional.

I changed Brother Wen to a scheming man, and Brother Nan to a conscience, didn't he just want to highlight the lack of loyalty under the interests? If it is still like the 'original', highlighting the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, and not showing the cruel and ruthless reality, can the Germans give two awards? I can be regarded as touching the doorway, and I photographed it for the Chinese people to see, and it doesn't matter if it is true or not. If you shoot it for foreigners, you must have logic, followed by feelings!

Seeing that Sun Ziming had finished watching it, the two policewomen began to flip through the social news, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Sun, what is the ending of the movie?" Now the newspapers are asking the audience to guess the ending, and we can't get out, so you can't sue us first? ”

Sun Ziming smiled, these two police flowers are really brainless, Luo Hui's film review is so obvious, they don't know yet? If they go to see this film, they will definitely be fooled!

"Say?"

Sun Ziming raised his head with a smile, just in time to see the married policewoman's chest, which rose and fell slightly with his breathing, and quickly looked away, "I don't know about this, I filmed three endings, and I don't know which one Wei Qiang used." You have to be on duty yourself, let your husband or boyfriend go to see it, don't you know? ”

Yes? The two policewomen stared at the prisoner with wide eyes, "Where can I buy a ticket?" The test screening at midnight the day before yesterday, it was only released in your high-end theaters yesterday, and tomorrow's tickets are all booked! 100 Hong Kong dollars ticket, Director Sun, you are too dark! ”
