Chapter 896: Film Review and Xueyou

The lights were turned on, and everyone did not leave the scene, and after watching "The Siege of October", the hearts of everyone present felt as if they were blocked by something, and they felt quite uncomfortable.

Many people are even a little annoyed with Zhao Ze and some with Feng Xiaogang, but such a movie was released during the Chinese New Year, but it made them a little reluctant.

Bang Bang ......

After standing still for a minute, the audience spontaneously stood up and began to applaud before leaving their seats!

It worked!

Although he has long been full of confidence, Zhao Ze is still a little happy, he understands that with the first screening, the next word-of-mouth may be huge, but the next thing to see is the specific reaction on the Internet.

When they left the theater, many people who were about to enter the theater were also asking how the movie was.

"Anyway, you just have paper towels ready."

"It's better to be calm when watching this movie."

"Okay, this movie is good, and, it's cool."

"Look at it well, such a good movie is not something that you can encounter lightly."

……

Although the people who came out were unhappy with the abuse of the movie, they did not discredit the movie, but just expressed their most intuitive feelings.

As soon as they came out of the theater, these people couldn't wait to start expressing their opinions on the Internet.

"Say, we were all deceived by "October Siege", which are the two heavenly kings, these are the three heavenly kings, Zhang Xueyou actually has a play."

"I'm really speechless, Zhang Xueyou just hung up as soon as he came out, your sister. It's really a complete convincing. We don't stay like this. ”

"Let's be honest. "October Siege" is a good movie, but as expected, it is too sadistic, but the film shows us the demeanor of the Chinese people, and at the same time, it is also an inadvertent father's love, which makes people want to cry. ”

"Li Yutang is a businessman, he can be two-faced, even when he learns that an old friend has been killed. He can complete the task for his old friend and escort Sun Wen, but he is a father, so he doesn't want his son to be in danger, and at the end, when Li Yutang hugged Li Chongguang's body and cried bitterly, he just wanted to say that it was too miserable. ”

"Shen Chongyang is a gambler, and the more than 30 people in the troupe can be said to have died because of his whistleblowing. He's a police officer, but he just wants to gamble. However, when he learned from Yueru's mouth that Nian Ci was his daughter, as Yueru said, how would he tell his daughter about her father in the future, so when Yan Xiaoguo's subordinates insulted him as a waste, he resisted for the first time.

Moreover, he escorted Sun Wen for his daughter, I am afraid that no matter how rubbish he is, no matter how unreliable he is, the father's love in his bones is unstoppable. ”

…………

Some people who have watched the movie can't wait to express their opinions, and I have to say that every character in the movie has left a deep impression on everyone.

When a few movies came down, more and more people began to discuss "October Siege", especially many fans, who were even more dissatisfied.

Song Xiang's Ah Si died too miserably, many people really couldn't bear it, among these people, Ah Si's thinking was the most pure, in his opinion, as long as the old man and young master were happy.

He didn't even know how dangerous this mission was, he just wanted to marry Ah Chun after it was over!

As for Li Yuchun, fans can't accept it, Nima, it's just too miserable!

In the play, Fang Tian's father and daughter, Li Yutang's father and son, and even Shen Chongyang's father and daughter, this kind of fatherly love is an important part of the whole movie.

Compared with the evaluation of the movie, the evaluation of the film critic is extremely serious and comprehensive.

I close my eyes and see China's tomorrow

There used to be an old movie called "Bitter Love", in which the daughter questioned her father: I love him, and he loves me, but what about you? Do you love the motherland, do you love you? The latter was speechless. There is a formal asymmetry between the individual and the state, so this question may seem simple, but it is really difficult to answer. If we start from the perspective of "love is not reciprocated", then the result will tend to be tragic, just because we have seen too many personal fates played with by the times, repeatedly unfair, and turned into cannon fodder.

When I watched "The Siege of October", Sun Yat-sen's narration was still in my ears, and I kept thinking about this kind of problem between the small self and the big self. The film is a hymn to small people and ordinary people, and the farewell pictures of those peddlers and pawns are particularly shocking. They were pounced on by tigers and wolves, trampled like weeds. These people are undoubtedly patriots, but they have never met Sun Yat-sen, they are not relatives, and they don't even know who to protect. It looks confusing, but in fact, I don't care at all. They love their loved ones, they trust their friends, they are paid, they are willing to be bodyguards, that's all. Whether they actively participated or were passively involved, even if they were intimidated by the dangers ahead, they had to survive the hour.

Some people will be very strange, this is obviously a commercial entertainment blockbuster, with Guo Fucheng's happy play, and Li Yuchun Battle, how can he talk about patriotism when he comes up? "October Siege" is just such a film, it has everything it should have, and the things you look forward to can't get a full score but it must be enough.

There are real street battles in the film, as well as outflanking and breakthrough that focus on strategy, and there are also tragic chivalrous heroes who are freehand. Absolutely dazzled, no self-repetition. The additional touching and thinking it brings will benefit the audience a lot, even if it is the two father-daughter relationships between Guo Fucheng and Li Yuchun, which can be completely convincing and moving. There were also a few concise confrontational debates, focusing on why China and why the revolution was, and it was not easy to say, but it was about conscience. On the other hand, "October Siege" certainly has flaws, which may lie in the long foreshadowing, the shortcomings of a certain character, and the addition and subtraction of action scenes, but these are all different from person to person, and they are not big problems.

The story theme of Chinese blockbusters has been filmed thousands of years ago to modern times, and it finally makes people feel that this is related to our current lives. This topic can be invoked from the American spirit of Hollywood movies, emphasizing the individual, focusing on emotions, and not blindly preaching. "The Siege of October" speaks of a Chinese spirit in a broad sense, and there is not much of an obstacle to acceptance (with existing history textbooks). swept away the haze of the main theme and the great man film. The little people are doing something that seems to have nothing to do with history. I don't know what the future will be until I die. However, they did their best to complete their task. Not for generosity, but for the sake of death.

Li Chongguang said that as soon as he closed his eyes every night, he saw the tomorrow of China, and the feelings of worrying about the country when he was young spontaneously appeared. Borrowing Sun Yat-sen's small, tearful eyes, "The Siege of October" closely echoes this line, it turns out that what we are experiencing here is "the future of China". He seemed to see it, but they didn't see anything. A hundred years have passed. only sighs that reality is much crueler than the movie. Until Sun Yat-sen's death, he still left behind the regret that the revolution had not yet succeeded. What is the future of Huaxia? It's a pity that there is no fork in history. What is the future of Chinese blockbusters? I think "The Siege of October" gives another excellent and precious sample. ”

…………

Among the film reviews of many film critics, Jia Dao's film reviews are particularly rational and even profound-

Most people, don't know!

After the film review ended, I couldn't wait to ask Zhao Ze whether the script was real or fictional, as I expected, the story was fictional.

Since it's fiction, what? Let's analyze the details of the movie and see what this movie wants to express.

The story begins four days before Sun Wen arrives in Hong Kong. Every day, more people are involved. Most people don't know what kind of big things will happen on October 15, 1905, they want to protect, and what kind of person the Qing court assassins tried every possible means to assassinate; And what is the significance of their protective behavior?

First, most people don't know Sun Wen

Drama troupe Fang Hong, beggar Liu Yubai, coachman Ah Si, catch Shen Chongyang, "stinky tofu" Wang Fuming...... Among them, the young master seemed to know Sun Wen, but his knowledge was limited to the two Sun Wen books given to him by the editor-in-chief of the newspaper.

Second, most people don't know that they're going to die that day

Fang Hong thought about returning to her hometown Tianjin after that

The coachman, Ah Si, looked forward to the cave house after that

"Stinky Tofu" Wang Fuming plans to return to Shaolin

Catch Shen Chongyang and beggar Liu Yubai, one for gambling and the other for love, both put life and death out of the way

And although the young master is often impassioned, the two details before the end of his life, one is the trembling in front of his grandmother, and the other is the horror in the rickshaw, which shows that he at least did not expect this danger to be so terrifying.

Third, most people, very young, have no concept of death

As it is said today

Fang Hong is born in the 90s

The young master was born in 89

Ah Si is also a post-80s generation

Wang Fuming was born in 78

Shen Chongyang and Liu Yubai should also be less than 40

Therefore, this group of young people, who had no concept of death, were still very young when they died on October 15, 1905.

Fourth, most people do not see the realization of Sun Wen's ideals

Sun Wen is far from being the protagonist in the film, but his few words are the finishing touch of the film

"If you want to be happy with civilization, you have to go through the pain of civilization, and this pain is revolution!"

The end of the film lists a number of uprisings from 1905 to 1911.

We know even more, the 100 years from 1905 to 2005 saw revolutions come and go

So are we watching the movie today as happy as Sun Wenzhi is?

"The revolution is for the sake of 40,000,000 compatriots, everyone has a permanent job, no hunger, no cold"

What about the current situation?

Let me summarize myself, why in the past 100 years, there have been so many people who have died, there have been so many revolutions, and the basic ideals that Sun Wen originally used to inspire people are far from being realized?

The reason should still be "most people, don't know". To say more, our master Zhou Long wrote about so many ignorant and numb people, how can their personality essence and mental state be changed at one time by simple external forces. However, the education that cultivates people to think independently, question bravely, carefully verify, and enlighten the mind has never happened systematically.

Therefore, this kind of movement, which does not change the minds of the people and relies only on the brute force of the outside world, has been proved to be unable to make Mr. Sun "have a constant karma, not cry hunger, and do not cry cold" in the course of ten, fifty or one hundred years. If this 100-year history is not enough, it can go back 300 years, 2500 years. Going back 5,000 years. History is always proving time and time again. There is no opening of the minds of the masses. All violence is ultimately reduced to a means for the benefit of a few.

After talking about the "don't know" of these little people, talk about their "knowing".

Confirmed information indicates that the film is fictional;

What we can confirm is that Sun Wen and other big names are not the protagonists;

The protagonists are this group of little people

The little people don't know the big people, they don't know the big meaning, so we are still struggling today, hoping to "have a constant industry." No hunger, no cold"

What do the little people know?

Fang Hong knew that she had to follow her father's path

The coachman Ah Si wants to make the boss happy, but also for himself Ah Chun

Wang Fuming wanted to vent his anger, and his martial arts had never been used

Caught fast until before the incident, because he suddenly found out that he actually had a daughter, so he turned against him

As for the young master, it is a typical impassioned 17-year-old boy

So, there's this

The love of father and daughter, the love of love, the love of master and servant. Injustice, passion

Every feeling is so small that it can't be written in the history books. It can't be carved into stone, but it's so real, again and again, and it has happened again and again in the history of mankind.

Therefore, what the little people know is this simple truth.

Well, the little people don't know the big people, they don't know the big truths; The little people know the simple good, and the little people know the simple evil. What conclusions do these two points draw from the combination?

The little people don't know, because they "don't know", even if their death will be exchanged for some results, and the results themselves are always possessed by a few, and their children, grandchildren, are still the silent majority

The little people don't know, so despite the constant deaths, the simple ideal is still nowhere to be seen

The little people don't know, so they always die in ignorance

The little people have few requirements, and they can live and work in peace and contentment

The little people are pathetic and are always taken advantage of

The little people are pathetic and always blinded

Therefore, most people's "ignorance", most people's simple good thoughts and malice, have decided that the result of several external forces cannot change the fate of them, their children, and grandchildren once and for all. Therefore, the real hope lies in the opening of the people's minds. But the top-down, systematic opening of people's wisdom never seems to have happened, why is that?

…………

"Ten years ago, Brother Qu Yun and I were discussing what revolution is, and at that time I said that revolution is for the 40,000,000 revolutionary compatriots to have a permanent career, not to cry hunger or cold. Ten years later, I have returned from a wandering land, and my like-minded people have died one after another. The word revolution is not the same as for me, and today I will say what revolution is, and if you want to be happy with civilization, you have to go through the pain of civilization, and this pain is revolution! ”

…………

Finally, to sum up, Feng Xiaogang is not a loss to Feng Xiaogang, he has made a movie that everyone looks up to, and Zhao Ze is not a loss to Zhao Ze, he even wrote such a script.

In addition, there is a little bit of thinking.

1) As a small person, the fate is still the same; Why is it still the same, everyone knows for themselves

2) The real means to achieve the "happiness of civilization" is not a few violent movements, but a systematic enlightenment of the minds of many small people, making them think, making them awake, and making them do good

3) This systematic education does not happen from the top down. This is easy to understand, just like squeezing the bus, the seats on the bus are limited and there are many people under the bus, before you get on the bus, you can't wait to use the loudspeaker to shout "no matter how crowded you are, you can go up", as soon as you get on the bus, you want the door to close immediately, and your slogan has changed to "Hurry to death, still not close the door?" Wait for the next car! The next one will be there shortly."

4) Many people of real insight are devoting themselves to this kind of enlightening education!

5) What can we do before expecting someone to change? Read 10,000 books and travel 10,000 miles. As for books, you can read more history books (not diachronic textbooks) to figure out the history of the last 100 years, the last 60 years, and the last 30 years. As for the road, go around in the distance, and go around the country more. Just hugging the Internet, venting your feelings, being an angry youth, and finally just an online mob. Even if you can see the "door" break one by one, it will not do much good to the whole society and to your children and grandchildren.

Finally, the paradox about the "happiest generation".

First, we can prove that we are the happiest generation ever. The argumentation process is as follows

The 20th century is stronger than before. It seems like a certainty

The new society is better than the old. There is no doubt about this either

The fathers are better than the grandparents, because the father often says that the grandfather did not have a good life

We are better than our parents, who were hungry when they were children and ate pork that died of illness

So, all the way down, we are the happiest generation ever

Second, what about our personal feelings? It seems to be the happiest, but why is there so much pain and confusion?"

…………

Zhao Ze who returned home. At night, when he watched this Jia Dao's analysis, he was also silent for a long time, in fact, when Zhao Ze finished watching "October Siege", sometimes, he hated Chen Shaobai even more.

Chen Shaobai is a revolutionary party, he can be quite crazy, he is desperate, and even blindly believes that only revolution can the masses be happy, but. Is it really happy?

Originally, Li Yutang was happy. He is a businessman and has an identity and status in the entire Xiangjiang, but because of Chen Shaobai's pull, Li Yutang lost his son in old age.

Ah Si is happy, he has someone he likes, and he is even ready to get married, but he died because of escorting Sun Wen.

Fang Tian's father and daughter also died because of Chen Shaobai!

As for Li Chongguang, Zhao Ze believed Jia Dao's analysis, Li Chongguang had thought about danger, but he was only 17 years old, how could he have thought about such danger, so when he died, he was afraid.

Teenagers are always hot-blooded, even rebellious, so Zhao Ze actually regrets Li Chongguang's death!

As Jia Dao said, no matter how many years have passed, the little people are still the little people!

No matter what the history is, who can say clearly, at this time, Zhao Ze is concerned about the popularity of the Internet, and is about the discussion of "October Siege" on the Internet.

As Zhao Ze expected, at the end of the day, with almost eight movies, after being played in various places, there are more and more discussions about "October Siege" on the Internet.

And on the Internet, for the death of many celebrities, I feel quite painful!

However, in any case, "October Siege" seems to be a success so far!

Although Zhang Xueyou hung up as soon as he appeared, many people's love for Zhang Xueyou also wanted to go to the cinema to look forward to the movie.

In addition, the official micro-guest of "October Siege" has been posted at this time, the three heavenly kings are gathered, and the movie is worth watching!

In any case, almost propaganda has presented a huge wave of overwhelming arrival!

In addition, the media also jumped out at this time and focused on "October Siege" -

"Since the preparation for the filming of "October Siege", it has been a constant topic, especially the joining of the two heavenly kings has made this movie gain absolute attention, but who would have thought that Zhang Xueyou would also participate in the movie, the three heavenly kings gathered, this movie can be regarded as a miracle in terms of lineup, and in addition, the reputation of the movie is also showing positive growth."

"The popularity of "October Siege" can almost be described as crazy, and the most common sentence that everyone says, which is that today's "October Siege" can be said to be the most powerful movie, and this movie may create one miracle after another."

"Now, what I really care about is how much the box office of "October Siege" can reach on the first day, after all, now Zhao Ze can be said to have created one miracle after another, and what everyone is really talking about is the Zhao Ze effect, so at this time, what everyone really cares about is the box office brought by the Zhao Ze effect?"

………………

Suddenly, with the media reports, "October Siege" directly swept the headlines of major topics.

At the same time, when Zhang Xueyou in Xiangjiang was doing activities, he was also asked by everyone about the salary this time and why his role has always been kept secret.

"Brother Xueyou, I want to ask, what is your salary in "October Siege"? And, what do you think about characters who die as soon as they first appear? ”

A reporter from Xiangjiang asked.

"Okay, the first thing I want to tell you is that I didn't get paid, this time it's a friendship to help, as for hanging up as soon as I appear, I don't really want to die."

Zhang Xueyou said with a smile: "Actually, I really don't want to die so quickly, at the beginning, Director Feng told Mr. Zhao that there was a role that needed to be made a cameo, and asked me if I had time, I said that as long as passers-by A would be fine, but they said that there were no passers-by, only martyrs."

I thought that martyrs should be martyrs, but I didn't expect that not only would I die, but I would also have to roll down the stairs, so I didn't want to die. ”

This is indeed Zhang Xueyou's psychological words, so after answering the reporter's question, there were still people who wanted to answer the question, but he didn't answer anymore, but said: "Wait until you watch the movie and then ask me." (To be continued......)
