The film was released on Sunday, but the audience was shocked.
Fifteen minutes later.
In major cinemas across the country.
Fans of Chen Xiao's first three works, passers-by who were strolling around, adults and children who were having fun with their families, as well as people from the martial arts, film and television, and folk music circles all sat in the premiere hall.
The lights had dimmed, leaving only the light of the screen on everyone's faces.
After a few commercials.
On the green screen, a golden film flew out and turned into a golden dragon. Familiar music sounded, and the movie officially began.
Under the repeated accents of Western orchestral instruments, a golden butterfly crossed the desert, crossed the cliff, and flew up the valley.
As the butterfly flew upward, the sunlight on the distant horizon appeared in the picture.
The camera zoomed out, and the shape of the valley was the word "Kung Fu".
The camera went black, and the story officially began.
Screams echoed in the police station.
A policeman was thrown onto the plaque of "Evil Slayer", smashing the word "Evil Slayer" into pieces, and fell downstairs with the policeman.
With the sound of clanging footsteps, a man in a top hat walked in front of the camera, showing his black teeth and roaring: "Who else!"
The police officers bowed their heads and pretended to be busy.
The man took off his hat and pointed at the woman smoking behind him, "Such a beautiful woman, just because she spit on the ground, you caught her here."
He seemed to be a righteous person who spoke for the victims, stretching his neck and asking in a rhythmic manner: "Is there still the king's law? Is there still law?"
...
In front of the screen, everyone laughed.
"Why is it so funny, hahaha?"
"It's obviously a scene of gangsters trampling on the law, why is it a little funny?"
"Those black teeth don't look like they were dyed, they must be from smoking, it's awesome to be this black."
"This guy is too arrogant, he shouldn't be the ultimate boss, I guess he will be solved halfway through the movie."
However, what the audience didn't expect was that one minute later...
In the pink-toned picture.
In front of the closed door with "Industrial and Commercial Security Committee, Fifth Branch Police Brigade" hanging on it.
The arrogant Crocodile Gang boss fell in a pool of blood.
"Police, come out and clean up the floor!" The Axe Gang's little brother shouted.
The plot quickly advances, explaining the background of the times.
In this era, society is turbulent and gangs are prevalent. Even the sheriff's detective has become a gangster's lackey.
In such an era, only some poor communities that are not even interested in gangs can enjoy peace for a while.
The picture changes, and the melodious "Fisherman's Song of the East China Sea" sounds.
The quiet and peaceful atmosphere of Pig Cage City is presented to the audience.
In front of the faucet wrapped with cloth strips, neighbors lined up to get water; in the public bathroom, everyone used old-fashioned iron basins to brush their teeth and wash their faces...
As the camera panned, three-dimensional characters appeared on the screen.
Coolie Qiang who was honest and taciturn.
Fried dough sticks who spoke English humbly.
The sissy tailor with orchid fingers.
The fiery red-lipped and stormy Azhen.
The lustful landlord.
The landlady who was irritable and cursed as fluently as eating.
And the handsome guy Jiangbao with half of his round butt exposed.
In front of the screen, with the melodious and cheerful music, the audience's mood also relaxed.
In a movie theater, Vice Minister Wu's 12-year-old daughter chewed popcorn and muttered, "The landlady is so fierce, just like my grandma. I don't like her."
Vice Minister Wu poked her head with his hand, "Stinky girl, how can you talk like that!"
The daughter pouted and whispered, "I saw a trailer. She chased the protagonist and beat him up, bullying the weak."
His wife also echoed, "I don't like her either. She said something like 'You deserve to be a laborer for life because you are so strong'. Her mouth is too foul."
Vice Minister Wu shook his head helplessly and didn't continue talking.
Ignoring the two of them, he thought that this shot was great.
From the beginning to now, there are a lot of long shots, one character leads to another.
The landlord and Ah Zhen ran over, leading to the washing of the hair, the hair shouting because there was no water led to the landlady, and the landlady went downstairs to curse and led to the neighbors.
There is almost no meaningless shot, which is really worth learning.
Oh…I was really crazy last year. I dared to stay in the film industry. I was really snatching food from the tiger's mouth.
…
Soon, this "neighborly harmony" and "husband and wife respect each other" Pig Cage City welcomed two uninvited guests.
In the fast-paced pipa music of Ten Sides Ambush, two men in suits and straw hats came to the gate of the city and walked
With a heartless pace, they came to the barber shop.
As soon as the man in the gray suit appeared, many theaters were instantly excited.
"Ahhh! Director Chen, hahaha, the first shot on the screen."
"Even this sloppy hairstyle can't stop his coolness."
"Why does he look different from the last interview?"
"I heard from a friend in the beauty salon that he was asked by the makeup boss to go tanning, which was hilarious."
But everyone still knew the etiquette of watching movies. After a brief ten-second excitement, they all quieted down and continued watching the movie.
Many fans took out their mobile phones and secretly took photos or kept them as souvenirs or posted them online.
There were also a few fans who lowered their voices and discussed secretly.
"I want to know how the protagonist got beaten by the landlady."
"That landlady is a tigress at first glance. She gets angry over trivial matters. I guess the protagonist accidentally broke her things, so she chased him and beat him."
"Didn't it say earlier that the landlady cut off the water supply to the neighbors? That was a foreshadowing. I guess the protagonist did a good deed and turned on the faucet, so she beat him, right?"
"That makes sense. You are worthy of it!"
Just as the two were complacent about their wisdom, Jiangbao had already cut Feizai Cong's hair in the picture.
Jiangbao smiled elegantly and shyly, "After the cut, thank you, fifty cents."
He pointed at Feizai Cong's shiny boss head, "Isn't it beautiful?"
The protagonist with a stubble on his face folded his hands in front of his chest and frowned at Jiangbao, "Why did you cut it so beautifully? Who told you to cut it so beautifully? Are you looking for trouble?"
In front of the screen, two fans were stunned.
They thought that Director Chen's story was about the growth of a bullied little person.
But now it seems that he is playing... a villain?
The two looked at each other, and both saw disbelief in each other's eyes.
