- Movie "Zhong Kui's Snow Demon Spirit"

This movie, at first looking, is not at all interesting. The reason why I continue to watch it when it is not interesting at all is just to see what kind of Zhong Kui is Zhong Kui? Is the devil a ghost? Is it a demon or a ghost?

Let's not talk about the plot and the various thoughts triggered by the movie. As far as the movie itself is concerned, I think the biggest failure is Zhong Kui's deformed appearance, the appearance of the snow demon after his appearance, and the appearance of all kinds of devils that make people uncomfortable in between.

Zhong Kui's deformed appearance is similar to that of a robot, not at all lively, not vivid at all, I don't know if it's poor level or poor technology. In my humble opinion, why not draw on Zhong Kui's physiognomy in folk paintings, make it more vivid, and make it more popular. So a dry robot pestle is there, expressionless, unusually rigid, and really doesn't dare to compliment.

The snow demon is a transparent puppet carved from ice or glass, which is inferior to Zhong Kui's "robot" image. Is the Snow Demon going to make her a frozen snow sculpture? Again, there is no such thing as any life!

The demon king was like a bunch of branches tied together. Light a fire in a bundle of branches and make it move, and this is the Demon King. After the demon king was restored to his original image, it was a combination of male and female voices. Can you get a little creative? If you don't look carefully, I thought that the "thousand-year-old demon" in "A Chinese Ghost Story" was resurrected again.

In "Zhong Kui Fu Demon", the images that belong to the "animation" part are relatively rough, and the traces of plagiarism, coping, and lack of seriousness are very obvious, which is a hard injury.

The above ugliness has not dissipated the various thoughts given to people in the development of the plot of this movie. Probably, this is also the value of the existence of this movie.

In terms of the large background of time and space, demons, humans, and immortals are three worlds, with three separate powers, each with its own place. Perhaps, these three worlds will also have conflicts large and small, but in terms of overall trends, they are able to check and balance each other. Because they can check and balance each other, they will not cause chaos in the Three Realms. Under the premise of mutual checks and balances, the Three Realms each operates according to its own laws, each with its own good and each with its own evil. From the perspective of the Three Realms, where the balance has not been broken, the demon is also a human being, and it has the goodness of a human being; Man is also a demon, and he will not distinguish between right and wrong; Immortals are also demons, and he also has inflated selfish desires; Demons are also human, and they also have sincere love...... And so on and so forth.

Let's talk about Zhong Kui again. Zhong Kui, a hard-working and talented scholar, originally hoped to enter the system through the imperial examination and contribute his full knowledge to the court and the people. However, the filth and squalor in the system turned his lifelong fame and great future into naught with just a slight stroke, and completely excluded him from the system. Zhong Kui fought in the fiercest way, using his life to express his dissatisfaction and anger at the corruption of the system: he died headfirst on a tablet posted on the list, in full view of everyone. Zhong Kui died, it stands to reason that he should have entered the Demon Dao or the Ghost Dao, but he didn't. He was saved by Zhang Daoxian. After Zhong Kui was saved, everyone thought he was human, but in fact, he was just a ghost or a demon in human skin. As a result, he became a person completely outside the system: neither demonic, nor humane, nor immortal.

The reason why Zhang Daoxian saved Zhong Kui was not what the people thought: the compassionate heart of the immortal family. The reason why Zhang Daoxian saved Zhong Kui was actually just to use him. As an immortal, according to the rules of the Three Realms, Zhang Daoxian could not enter the Demon Realm. If you can't enter the Demon Realm, you can't get the so-called "Demon Spirit"; If you can't get the "Demon Spirit", you can't realize his inflated ambitions. Zhang Daoxian is an immortal after all, and he first sees through personnel. Based on this, he took advantage of Zhong Kui's righteous character and made up lies to deceive him, and he asked Zhong Kui to serve the people in his own way. He constantly gave Zhong Kui a "soul rejuvenation soup" and constantly instilled the theory of cultivating immortals in Zhong Kui. He originally thought that he could control Zhong Kui, but what he didn't expect was that under his guidance, Zhong Kui would step by step towards the path of "True Immortal", and he would eventually have no way to control his own high disciples.

In "Dream of Red Mansions", the phrase repeatedly sung in "Okay Song" is "Everyone in the world knows that the gods are good". Are immortals really good? I don't know! However, listening to Zhang Daoxian's complaining words, you may be able to understand the distress of the immortals. After years of cultivation, after going through many difficulties and dangers, and suffering all kinds of irreparable disasters, Zhang Daoxian finally entered the immortal world. Although he is among the immortals, among the many Daluo immortals, he is just a small speck of dust. He can't participate in high-level meetings, can't enjoy Huageli dance, and can't perform unspoken rules...... Under the strict hierarchy of the immortal realm, Zhang Daoxian could only stand from a distance outside the nine heavens, and the path of the real high-level immortal would not let him, a little immortal, go—because his qualifications were not enough and his level was too low. Reality, the reality of the fairy world hurt Zhang Daoxian too much!

The easiest way to rise is to do whatever it takes.

Zhang Daoxian chose the best path.

He is hypocritical and creates an image of kindness.

He deceives and deceives the people with lies.

He is evil and steals "demons" by any means necessary.

……

Zhang Daoxian still did not succeed in the end and disappeared. He was exterminated by the apprentices he had taught. His own fate was to disappear, and from then on there was no trace of him in the Three Realms. The so-called "agency is too clever to calculate, but it has wronged Qingqing's life". Zhang Daoxian struggled outside the immortal system, and what he received from entering the system was not joy, but pain. Zhang Daoxian's tragedy is the result of the expansion of his own selfish desires (perhaps, there are still too many ordinary people's human desires left in his immortal body); The second is that all kinds of suppression within the immortal system completely distort his soul.

The immortals who the people thought they could redeem themselves were actually hypocrites who used themselves as pawns or stepping stones, or dignified-looking demons.

Zhong Kui, because of his anger at the dirtiness of the human system, fought against the system with death. After he was free from the system, his means of serving the people were completely civilian, that is, to subdue demons and eliminate demons for the people. However, this kind of demon subjugation and demon elimination is just a scam that has been used by others. Behind the seemingly righteous banner, there is an inside story that is even more unbearable than the human system. Serving the people is just a pretense for Zhang Daoxian to fool the people with the help of Zhong Kui.

The populace is the most easily fooled and deceived. The bright eyes of the people will only shine when the snow demon is powerful. Perhaps, in this entanglement and struggle between immortals, humans, and demons, many people did not understand the real plot until they died.

The fairy world is actually high up. They are too far from the world. When Zhang Daoxian was in turmoil, the omnipotent immortals did nothing. Come to think of it, if someone questions the immortals in the end, they will probably explain it in terms of karma. In the end, their beckoning to Zhong Kui is actually a kind of harvest.

After being deceived by Zhang Daoxian, will Zhong Kui accept the immortal's recruitment? Who knows!

Everything about the system is terrible and unpredictable.

Among the Three Realms, the only credible thing is probably love.

This love, whether it is human and human, human and demonic, demon and immortal, immortal and human...... They can all be moving, they can all be eternal!
