Since Douyin, Watermelon Video, and Toutiao launched "free online Spring Festival files", after asking people all over the country to watch 13 movies for free, "Crazy Aliens" "It's on fire again.
Ning Hao launched the crazy series of trilogy that year. This earthy sci-fi film beyond reality became the box office champion, and for a while it became one of the movies that continues this year.
lights up on the east and off on the west. With a box office of 2.2 billion, but a score of 6.4, some people think this is a "successful box office, failed movie." In fact, "Crazy Alien" does not have the humanity thinking after the joy in "Crazy Stone", nor the intricacies of the multi-line narrative in "Crazy Racing", but it still has the unique characteristics of Ning Hao.
If you can understand the two hidden metaphors of "Crazy Alien", you will understand Huang Bo's Shenteng absurd joke and this Chinese-style science fiction comedy.
This drama still continues the main line of Ning Hao’s unique small people doing big things in the market. Geng Hao, who has the traditional skills of monkey play and the brothers who only want to make a fortune, have their own traditional skills. Do business with liquor until the arrival of aliens.
Different from the previous Hollywood model, the aliens did not change the world and caused the war of the century. Instead, they were played by the two people drinking medicinal wine as monkeys, and the C nationals who were looking for advanced creatures were turned by aliens as monkeys. There are three different classes. The people who collide together are still familiar Ning Hao's black humor.
is ironic, funny, and absurd. This is the first story of "Crazy Alien". It is easy to understand without too much foreshadowing. The laughter all the way to the end and abruptly stopped, it can not help people feel that the meaning is still unfinished. If you think about it, it is not.
is like "Crazy Stone", there are meaningful closed loops everywhere, from farce back to farce.
The first level of farce: Geng Hao, who is a descendant of the Monkey King in Southwest China, built an all-encompassing Lehua Amusement Park and inherited the declining profession of monkey trainer. If there was no alien spacecraft to damage his only monkey, he would not There is the absurdity of training aliens to be monkeys.
also saw the monkey flying, as if seeing a business opportunity, thinking about selling aliens at high prices. At the moment, aliens who are scornful of humans have become monkeys in the hands of humans. Tom, who claims to be the most advanced country on earth, is looking for clues based on photos of alien locations but is tossed around.
The first meaning of monkey playing is particularly direct, a contest between grassroots culture and advanced culture. The little characters played by Shen Teng and Huang Bo are typical grassroots, life is not easy, the market is shallow, and they are eager to turn things around but they are looked down on everywhere. In their eyes, aliens are not merchandise for sale, but monkeys who inherit the mantle, and have nothing to do with advanced civilization. The slightest relationship.
, but aliens who always look down on low-level civilizations have become the most undesirable civilization. They have lived a hot pot life, played folk juggling, and drank the wine table culture, which can be said to be ridiculous.
The second meaning of monkey playing is specialObscure, a contest between grassroots culture and elite culture. At the beginning of the film, the people of Country C are the elites representing all mankind. They want to establish diplomatic relations with aliens. This is the kind of elite humans who are played around by two grassroots. They are not like a direct contest between aliens, but hidden in the positioning photos. .
looks like the elites of Country C were tricked into traveling around the world by the positioning photos of aliens, but they were actually led by the nose of the global architectural paradise built by grassroots characters, which is extremely humorous and ironic.
One open line and one dark line tell us two traditions: the tradition of global integration and the traditional craftsmanship of the folk.
The second level farce: The energy bar of the alien being tricked by
is like the monkey king’s golden cudgel. Geng Hao has no idea that Taishan uses the energy bar as a belt, and the aliens who have gained energy have begun to fight back— -Play them like monkeys. The monkey man became a monkey, the man began to tame the monkey, and the alien possessed by the monkey became the owner of the Lehua Park, where the owner made a noise in the global architecture.
The clan elite Tom, who was originally bowed down, was tricked by the alien monkeys, and was beaten up in the Lehua Park. The sum became a ridiculous battle against the alien monkeys. The appearance of
is like the Monkey King's trouble in the Heavenly Palace and being suppressed at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain. This farce has the same effect. Lehua Park, the epitome of global architecture, actually has another symbol of "the authority of the combination of Chinese and Western", which includes the pyramids of Egypt, the Eiffel Tower in France, the Statue of Liberty in the United States, and the legendary Five Finger Mountain and Huaguo Cave in China.
Lehua Park has both Western freedom and Eastern civilization, both Western globalization and Eastern authority, and aliens have become a symbol of monkeys, just like the monkey king’s rebellious constraints.
In the eyes of aliens, Lehua Park is like a cage-like low-end civilization, shackles people’s ignorance and low-level;
In Geng Hao’s eyes, Lehua Park is like a controlled society that is constantly required by the manager to discipline KPIs, full of Interpersonal relationships at a loss. The two duels played by
seem to be a ridiculous exchange of identities between people, but they are actually breaking through the cage of control and rebelling against ignorant interpersonal authority.
cheers Sun Dasheng today, because the demon fog is coming back again.
Between playing a monkey and being played, it seems to be mocking the traditions of the low-end national quintessence and the rebellious rebellion of the new forces. The main feature of the
story of tradition and rebellion
starts with monkey charmer, and ends with monkey charmer. It starts with the tricks that the monkey charmers are looked down upon, and ends with the monkey charmers using the unique Paplov principle to subdue the alien monkeys. Similar to the Monkey King, he was surprised by the Monkey King, struggling in a duel between tradition and rebellion, and was subdued by the low-end national quintessence. This is the first story "Monkey Playing" in "Crazy Alien".
Monkey opera, like the sugar man, has a thousand-year history of folk culture. From folk craftsmen all over the rivers and lakes to the fading out of the monkey school tradition, traditional art has fallen into the eyes of people under the impact of animal protection and modern commercial culture. "Low-end national quintessence" is the epitome of monkey opera artists.
Monkey play symbolizes the lament of material cultural heritage and the sadness of the bottom of society. The class gap in is to let monkey play disappear from the paranoia of "people look down on people", and to make the rebellion between civilization and civilization win a big victory. The tradition and rebellion of
"Crazy Aliens" is actually a food chain that hides the gap between classes, which is vividly expressed in ridicule.
Geng Hao and Da Fei represent the grassroots of the grassroots culture, a heritage of art, a commercial realization;
C representatives of the ChineseThey are the upper-class people of elite culture. They are proud and proud. They would rather worship the aliens than the lower-class people. The
aliens represent the senior people of the advanced civilization. They look down on the earth civilization, let alone the lower and upper-class people.
The future that was once despised looks different. The upper class is defeated by the senior, and the senior is subdued by a banana from the bottom. In the end, he defeated the world civilization with the low-end national quintessence that he looked down upon. This is the elation of the little man and the director's alternative tribute to tradition.
We always lament that Ning Hao used the little people's touch and roll to express the misery of social life, but ignored the most logical saying in "Golf and Movies": The tragedy and misfortune of social life began when people were divided into masters and slaves. of.
The metaphors of establishing diplomatic relations and cutting Hu
often appear in the shaking shots of Wong Kar-wai, hidden in the intense human struggle of Almodovar, but never thought of Ning Hao’s humorous comedy. The second story of "Crazy Aliens" is the establishment of diplomatic relations and the cutting of Husbands, which is full of absurd and ridiculous plot peaks. The establishment and withdrawal of diplomatic relations between Chinese citizens of C
cheers Sun Dasheng today, because the demon fog is coming back again.
The beginning of the story is that Chinese citizens of C went to space to establish diplomatic relations. Even in the various sneers of aliens, they still have a persevering friendship. This has the extension of searching for aliens. Unfortunately, the alien Chika was trapped in a potion bottle in Lehua Park. The monkey that Bei laughed at became an alien worshipped by everyone. After the ceremony of establishing diplomatic relations, the people of Country C felt that this was a victory in human history. taste.
is DNA and DNA. The result of the genetic ball research and analysis comes from monkeys. The people of C country are hidden in their growing ambitions from the superiors of establishing diplomatic relations to the retreat of diplomatic relations.
Xiaohu and victory of the little people
As the little people at the bottom of the food chain, life and death cannot be left to themselves. If you don’t follow the order to open the alien planet’s life, it’s fortunate that there are monkeys who have refilled the numbers and rescued halfway. The final victory of
is very subtle. The aliens have successfully established diplomatic relations, not with the C, but with the Chinese, because of the liquor culture.
"Crazy Aliens" has a lot of irony and humor. The aliens in C country may be monkeys, the monkey juggler became the final winner, Geng Hao chose the monkey show in Monkey and Da Fei, all of this Benefit from "ambition and culture".
ambition and culture
where there are people.
Geng Hao and Da Fei represent the grassroots culture bottom person, a mind to stick to the tradition, the desire to make money and turn over; the elite cultural star represented by country C, the senior civilization, the overlord who has the overlord, the overlord of the werewolves. Have the ambition to destroy the earth.
These big and small thoughts are finally transformed into the relationship culture of marginal figures. Da Fei and Geng Hao’s brotherhood of raising you is the unyielding brotherhood. The alien monkey (monkey) was defeated by the Paplov principle of mentorship. The aliens finally established diplomatic relations with China thanks to their acquaintances with liquor culture.
In the story of monkey playing, Ning Hao tells the story of cultural conflict and the establishment of diplomatic relations, and Ning Hao tells the story of cultural integration . Whether it is globalization or all-encompassing, it is a string of Chinese culture in the relationship between material and spirit.
Modern Chinese culture is the most human-oriented. The three people like to eat hot pot favors, fragmented aliens favorite is liquor favors, and Dafei's businessmen qualities are also in the wine table favors.
art originates from reality and is higher than reality. All humor, no matter how funny, is all in the real human stories, myths and legends. Those who understand must understand, and those who don’t understand are tasteless.
We say that when you see a work, you have to look at the future and raise a height to overlook the whole situation. Although "Crazy Aliens" does not have a series of stories in real life, it is full of the world's cold and warm, just as the successful counterattack of Shen Teng and Huang Bo in the final tidbits can not change the handshake of the superiors. After wiping hands details.
This is class and culture.
No matter how small the power is, there is a huge energy. I am Xiaobai Yueyu S. I believe in the power of words.
