took place in 2002 in Shanghai. The protagonist Cheng Yong is a self-employed seller selling sexual health drugs, facing a series of crises nowadays. When he was at a loss, a patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia, Lu Yingyi, approached him and asked him to import a generic drug of Glenin from India. The effect is equivalent to the genuine Glenin in the hospital, but the price is one-eighth of the genuine Glenin. Because India's Glenin drug is effective, the price is much cheaper than the genuine drug, so many patients stay alive. Cheng Yong also made a lot of money from it, but because he knew too many people, he was targeted by Zhang Changlin, a jealous fake maker, and was reported many times. Under pressure, Cheng Yong gave Zhang Changlin the power of agency in exchange for a sum. Qian started his own business and became the boss. But Zhang Changlin raised the price of the medicine to 20,000 yuan in order to make huge profits, and was reported by the patient to be chased by the police. Later, Cheng Yong's patient friend Lu Yiyi committed suicide because of lack of money. This incident deeply shocked Cheng Yong. He went west to India, imported Glenin from India again, and sold it at a price of 500 yuan per bottle, saving many lives of chronic myelogenous leukemia patients. But the good times didn't last long. Cheng Yong was arrested for smuggling illegal drugs. Three years later, Cheng Yong was released early. Nowadays, Glenin has been included in the medical insurance list by the government, and the price of genuine Glenin has also fallen due to multi-party negotiations...
There are many places where the audience shed tears. Feeling deep in the depths, weeping, can't help myself. The biggest tear point, in my opinion, is people's livelihood. In contemporary China, there are many such tears, such as housing prices, education, medical care, etc. Through the window of sky-high price drugs, this film shows the journey of seriously ill patients living in the ordinary class of society from getting sick, seeing a doctor, treating illness to death, and passing Multi-perspective coverage depicts the situation of fragile life individuals colliding with a huge hard system, reflecting the humble, insignificant and helplessness of life. In addition, it is through close contact with the people at the bottom of the society that the protagonist Cheng Yong has transformed from a cynical and selfish life pattern to a just image of compassion and sacrifice for righteousness, which promotes the positive force in human nature for good and makes people See the future and hope of society.
Do you still remember the paragraph that the old lady said when the police went to search in the show. That paragraph is undoubtedly the biggest tear point in the whole film, and it is also a paragraph that touched the heart of the police. There has never been a turning point, I said in this paragraph Halfway through, she was already in tears. Another tearful point in the play is that Huang Mao drove away in order to prevent Cheng Yong from escaping, but died in a car accident. At the door of the rescue room, do you still remember the emotional Cheng Yong said when he pulled the policeman by the collar? "He is only twenty years old. Is it wrong to want to live?" This sentence is a cry for life, which brings me emotions that cannot be expressed in words. There is also a very realistic and cruel sentence in the play, "There is only one disease in the world, that is, the disease of poverty." Although this sentence is too absolute, it is very real in the film.
The distinctive film theme is a crucial factor for the success of a film. This film is closely related to social hot spots and concerns hundreds of millions of people. It deeply reflects the people's livelihood under sky-high prices and is the primary reason for the film's popularity. Secondly, the smooth plot arrangement and clear narrative enable the audience to easily grasp the sequence of the story, understand the ins and outs of the story, the cause and effect, and make it easy for the audience to understand the director's intention. Third, the key part is very focused, and the sensational part is in place. It makes full use of the sympathy and compassion of the audience, earns enough tears from the audience, and pushes the theme in depth again and again. Highly-priced medicines have always been an extremely heavy topic for people's livelihood. The whole film is in a solemn atmosphere from beginning to end, allowing the audience to understand the pain and suffering of the humble people in an extremely heavy. The Oriental Pearl Tower on the banks of the Huangpu River appears in the misty Bund, and the slums in Shanghai are in the foreground. Such a scene is the only one in history, and it expresses the theme powerfully.
At the end of the movie, the subtitles show that Grenin is included in the National Medical Insurance Drug List. A ray of light rises from the bottom of the audience... In this pale, fluid world of greed and desire, there is always a small number of people who are insignificant through them Good deeds change the world little by little, warming usCool humanity. I can't help but think of a sentence by the American Afghan writer Khaled Husseini in "The Kite Chaser": The road for good people is always there...
