Coquettish Rebirth

Although Jia Hongjian doesn't believe in religion, he still knows that Christianity has the assumption of original sin, that is, man was born of Adam and Eve, but Adam and Eve did not listen to God's words and ate the forbidden fruit, so this is There is original sin... Jia Hongjian doesn't know exactly if this is the case, anyway, according to his understanding, this is probably the case?Even in the Middle Ages, didn’t various indulgence coupons were sold, and didn’t it just claim that buying coupons could redeem sins?So in this case, designing a certain background of the movie in line with the idea of ​​redemption should be quite adaptable to local conditions?Quite localized?

As soon as he brought up the concept of atonement, the eyes of Nolan and Jonathan lit up instantly. Sure enough, they also found this setting very interesting!Even Nolan couldn't help but said, "This idea is good! We can even use this idea to show the lines? The police officer asked why such a child from the underworld family wanted to be a policeman, did he want to sneak into the powerful department as an undercover agent?" ?Then the kid can say, no, I’m doing it for redemption, I hate my family! And the son of the note can be set as his father is a bad cop? Beating people innocently all day long? Do you like to bully black people? And you also charge protection money? It’s a bit like the policemen who caused the Los Angeles riots in 1992?”

1992 Los Angeles riots?That's right!Originally, this incident was about a black man's death - this black man was speeding on the highway, and was spotted by a female policeman, but he couldn't catch up, so he notified the colleagues in front to block the black man's car.As a result, after the siege, four white policemen asked the black man to get out of the car and be checked.As a result, the black man refused to cooperate, refused to be arrested and even showed signs of assaulting the police, which made the police angry.So the four policemen shocked the guy with electric batons, and beat him again after the shock was over.At first, the black man didn't beg for mercy, and seemed to be clamoring, so the police decided whether it was the stick or the black man's mouth.After more than fifty blows, the black man finally couldn't take it anymore and begged for mercy.Then the police stopped and called an ambulance to take the black man to the hospital.As a result, this incident was filmed by a family in the place where the beating man was located. They didn't film the clip of the black man resisting arrest and clamoring, but only filmed the police beating clip for more than 80 seconds.It's over.It was also sent to a small TV station in Los Angeles.

This small TV station edited the video of more than 80 seconds into a length of just over a minute.Then it was sent up to n and so on, a total of four TV networks. n When they aired it, they didn't even know that the video had been edited!As a result, after such a video of the police beating people was broadcast on the TV station, the whole Los Angeles condemned it!Everyone watched the video on their feet and concluded that the police beat people for no reason!As a result, at this time, the district attorney prosecuted the four policemen, but the jury and the judge acquitted the four policemen—the police beat the blacks because they resisted arrest.And at the beginning, no matter how he told him to stop the black people, he would not stop.So the police suspected that the black man had some unpublished behavior.He is on guard, and blacks resist arrest again, and they tend to attack the police.The police have to beat them hard, after all, this is the United States, and the bad guys have guns!

However, after the court and jury acquitted the police officers, the group of black groups and Latino groups who were brainwashed by TV into thinking that black people had been treated unfairly and that white people were racially discriminating against them started to take walks and make trouble. In the end, a riot broke out!This kind of big riot is all kinds of crimes that take advantage of the chaos. For example, a few black people drove on the road looking for targets, and when they saw something unpleasant, they would beat up or even cut off their ears!There were even homemade petrol bomb attacks on the streets, and various shops were looted. In the end, such a riot caused more than one billion dollars in damage, dozens of people were killed, thousands were injured, and tens of thousands were arrested!

During this riot, more than 380 militiamen from the National Guard of the United States were recruited, together with a small number of soldiers from the Army and Marine Corps, they were used to suppress the riots, and even black associations in some other cities in the west Some of us also responded to this kind of riot, and there were riots in other cities, but the scale was relatively small.Later, the four policemen were prosecuted again, and then the two policemen who mainly did it were sentenced to two and a half years in prison, and the black man who was beaten finally sued the Los Angeles government and even received [-] million US dollars in compensation. !

This matter has been used by Jia Hongjian in his previous life to tease all kinds of people who claim that the United States is a country ruled by law, and people who say that the United States is a country ruled by law. Are you inclined?Originally, their jury system in the United States stipulated that some people who did not know the case should be selected, so that they could make judgments without wearing colored glasses!But after the media's overwhelming publicity, the jury members will also be brainwashed!The point is that what the media says may not be right!In the end, the jury judged with colored glasses. Is this the rule of law?Obviously it is the rule of man!People in the United States still have a headache about this, but some Chinese are boasting that the rule of law in the United States is invincible?

But having said that, it is not impossible if this matter is used as a certain background.Jia Hongjian remembered seeing jokes on the Internet, which satirized various powerful institutions in the United States.That is to say, if the rabbit is lost, how does the FBI go in to find it? In the end, it is lapd, that is, people from the Los Angeles Police Department went in to look for it. The result was that the raccoon was beaten black and blue, and then the raccoon admitted that it was a rabbit... From this point of view, LAPD cops don't have a good reputation all over America.Even if you talk about it on the line, the police profession doesn't have a good reputation in the United States!You must know that the United States does not arrange police academies to enter academic education like China does. It means that anyone in China can apply for the police academies in the college entrance examination, and then become a reserve police officer after passing the political review. , and then learn.In the United States, anyone can apply for the police, and of course they will go through basic background checks.The so-called background check is just a good-sounding political review. After the review, they may be arranged to learn related technologies in the internal training police academy.

in this case.Ordinary police officers do not require a high degree of education, and anyone can apply to be a police officer. In addition, there are many scandals in the police force. beat up!After all, we must know that the salaries of grassroots policemen in the United States are not high. According to the statistics of police salaries in the United States in 2011 that Jia Hongjian read on the Internet in his previous life, the first-year patrol officers in a big city like Los Angeles have the lowest qualifications. The income of the police is only 2011 US dollars before going to bed, and the median income of a family of four in the United States in 5 is [-] US dollars.If the husband is a grassroots policeman, the wife does not go to work, and there are two children, this is definitely a poor family!So the status of the police in society is really different from that in East Asia!Even in East Asia, the income of the police is not considered high.But at least everyone won't have neighbors who have police subconsciously think that they are policemen for the purpose of beating people legally?

so.Under such circumstances, if the Hong Kong version of Infernal Affairs is to be filmed, it is really not in line with the conditions and conditions of the United States, and it will be unacceptable if it is produced!After much deliberation.Jia Hongjian still felt that Nolan's idea was still good.Mapping a little bit about the Los Angeles riots?Use a similar social background as the background of the story?This might be really good!Let a policeman's adolescent son see his father beating people for black money for no reason.They even caused a big riot, and they were sentenced afterwards. How can this make children have confidence in social justice?Plus half a child for thrills.It's normal to go for petty theft, and even in the end, to earn "pocket money" to help gangsters transport drugs. This is also common in the United States, and then slowly entered the underworld, and even second-year students thought that the underworld is the real one. The villain, the police are all hypocrites, do you think real villains are cuter than hypocrites?

On the other side, a child who grew up in a gangster family is naturally kind. He has seen the gangsters use cautious methods to kill people, such as throwing the enemy into the pigsty, and letting the pig take the flesh and bones of the enemy. Eat them all up or something.Watching the underworld family drug trafficking and so on, how many families have been harmed and how many people have been harmed.Even a good friend of this young man in school was harmed by a small drug dealer under his family. From a talented person who was originally excellent in character and learning with unlimited future, he became an addict who steals, robs and takes drugs all day long. Gentleman?How could this young man not hate his family?You can even design a little shadow of your childhood—for example, when you snatched my cousin’s toy when I was young, but my cousin shouted to kill me, but my uncle gave me me in the swimming pool, really almost killed me?Through all these settings, the two characters can be made fuller and more flavorful!

"By the way, although the script hasn't been written yet, I think how about Johnny Depp playing the undercover agent sent by the police to the gangster? He played the undercover agent in "The Traitor" in 97. His calmness , that kind of sharp eyes makes me think I want to be a real undercover! A real undercover should be quiet, quiet, and unobtrusive, but the eyes are particularly sharp? They are always observing, always It is calculated all the time, but nothing can be put on the face, at most it can only be put in the eyes for the audience's senses! Only in this way can we have that feeling!" Nolan said.

Thumbs up!Jia Hongjian agreed with this statement so much!In the previous Hong Kong version of "Infernal Affairs", although Liang Chaowei's performance was melancholic, it was still a bit lacking in this feeling.In other words, Jia Hongjian didn't feel that Liang Chaowei was playing an undercover agent, but he thought he was playing a policeman!The main reason is that Liang Chaowei's role is not calm enough, and he doesn't have that kind of "Yu Zecheng" rush!Yu Zecheng is also an undercover agent, but what he shows is that he looks very calm and even a little dull, but he is very smart when he should do things!But what about Tony Leung's character?After he suddenly discovered that Liu Dehua was the undercover agent opposite him, and after he found the file bag on Liu Dehua's desk, he ran away in shock. Can a real undercover agent be so flustered?Shouldn't it be a quick analysis of the pros and cons?Of course, this is not Liang Chaowei's problem, it's because there are loopholes in the script.But Jia Hongjian personally prefers the calm and stable acting style!It's not the kind of rush that Leonardo played in the American version of "Infernal Affairs" that is always on the verge of collapse!The kind of people who are quick to recognize people know that there is a problem at a glance, can this kind of person be an undercover agent?Are you really afraid that he will reveal his secrets?For a real undercover agent, it's best to find the calmest and smartest person with the best acting skills!

But if that's the case, who will play Liu Dehua's role?In fact, Liu Dehua's performance in the original version is not as good as Depp's performance in "The Traitor" in 97.Depp's eyes are really sharp, and the effect is absolutely amazing!According to Jia Hongjian's feeling, since Liu Dehua stated that he was an undercover agent at the beginning of the movie, he had better be the same as Liang Chaowei's character, with calm and sharp eyes!It's like two undercover agents who are exactly the same, and then these two people start to fight each other, how good is that?How many film emperors are rushing to play?
