Anyone who likes to watch Du Qifeng's movies knows that his "Gunfire" is like a black hand behind the scenes. People cannot control their own destiny. They have a very pessimistic mentality, extremely cold and sad. pole. The core content of
, directed and written by Cheng Er, and produced by Ning Hao, is a bit similar, but after watching this film, I found that there is no such thing as fate. The choices we accept are just our willingness. Only what we are willing and agree to will be the "Last Supper".
"Border Storm"
story background
Sun Honglei: drug dealer, brought up by Burmese drug lords, considered a righteous son.
Ni Dahong: Dentist, the innocent was involved in a fight between the police and the robber, and his daughter was robbed by Sun Honglei.
Wang Luodan: Ni Dahong's daughter, was kidnapped by Sun Honglei when she was a child, and she fell in love and got married when she grew up.
Yang Kun: The cruel gangster.
Zhang Mo: Anti-drug police.
The four chapters of the film "Dog", "The Past", "Daughter" and "The Past" tells that the drug dealer, played by Sun Honglei, followed his foster father to trade, but was arrested by the police. When he fled, he abducted the daughter of dentist Ni Dahong, and the daughter of the dentist Wang Luodan. When he grew up, he married drug dealer Sun Honglei. The policeman played by Zhang Mo accidentally catches the gangster played by Yang Kun. Drug dealer Sun Honglei is betrayed by his subordinates and finds the gangster Yang Kun for the last deal.
Sun Honglei, who does not believe in destiny, bowed his head only because he was willing.
Drug dealer Sun Honglei is a "end hero". His life is a bit complicated. He grew up with a drug lord, was taken as a righteous son, and was used to murder. He set fire, but his conscience was not clear, and he could not kill the child. In order to protect Xiao Wang Luodan, he killed the drug lord's son and became his own home. When he wanted to abandon evil and do good, life didn't give him a choice.
He was betrayed by his men and fled to the house of his father-in-law Ni Dahong, thinking of making the last vote so that he could have money to let his wife live a good life.
Three-way transaction
He found an abnormality in the mouth of the trade partner Yang Kun, and knew that it was discovered by the police Zhang Mo, but he still took the risk to trade, just to get money.
The police contacted his father-in-law, Ni Dahong, and knew that he would go abroad eventually, so they arrested him at the airport. But the money he took back from the risk was hidden. Before being shot "dead" at the airport, he gave the key to the hidden money to his father-in-law, Ni Dahong.
Judging from his results, it looks like a fateful arrangement. His only result is death, and the drama emphasizes on rendering the "Last Supper" scene, which also expresses that he knows everything, but he still chooses to face " "Death", however, is not a fateful arrangement, but the result of his affection and willingness.
Sun Honglei: When he was in charge of his own
from the beginning, he robbed Xiao Wang Luodan. On the road, he was softhearted and could not kill her. He brought her back to Myanmar. The drug lord’s son wanted to kill her, and Sun Honglei also protected her. Finally, the drug lord’s son Continuing to use her to threaten, Sun Honglei could only choose to get rid of the drug lord's son and become his own home.
Then Wang Luodan grew up, the two got married, and under Wang Luodan's guidance they built a primary school so that the children could study. Later, he wanted to abandon evil and do good, betrayed by his subordinates, and begged with great grief to spare his wife's life. In the end, in order to guarantee his wife's life, he went to make the last vote, even if he would die, he also chose to face it. From the kindness in the heart of
to the husband and wife Wang Luodan later, the two fell in love with each other deeply. She was willing to die with him, and he was willing to protect her life and face death.
These seemingly fateful webs can only proceed with his willingness and consent, and there will be the "last dinner" in the play. Although
must be "dead" because of his personality in the play, the thought conveyed is a reflection of life.
It is him who succumbed to his fate, not his fate. His willingness to bow his head for his wife and children does not mean that he accepts this fate.
is like a choice in life, there are active and passive, but the result must be what you want, because life will not be like a movie where someone takes a gun to force you to choose.
Wang Luodan, who doesn't believe in fate, is willing to change
. If Sun Honglei is a bad guy, then Wang Luodan is willing to make him change for the better. She doesn't believe in fate, she wants to change the so-called fate.
is like the Jin Dynasty philosopher Fu Xuan said: near Zhu is red, near ink is black.
Sun Honglei is in the environment of the drug lord’s lair, and if it continues to develop naturally, it may become worse and worse. Eventually, both of them will go nowhere. In
, Sun Honglei can be guided by Wang Luodan to build a school to teach, so that children can go to school, because of her guidance, he decides to abandon evil and do good.
is because she didn't want to believe in fate, so she did her best to change Sun Honglei, although in the end, because of Ni Dahong's "betrayal", Sun Honglei "deed".
But she achieved her goal, she did not compromise like fate, even though Sun Honglei grew up in the drug lord’s nest, despite his cruel murder, she did not succumb to this destined result, so her choice is right, yes successful.
In life, we cannot choose the beginning, but we can choose the middle and the result. No one is born a bad person or a mediocre person. These are not arranged by fate, but chosen by oneself. Only by surrendering and compromising willingly will they consider it as a fateful arrangement.
Father-daughter conversation
There are always people in life who feel that God is unfair, and they are afraid of comparison in everything. If you are a healthy person and lament the hardships and hardships of life, then what should those disabled compatriots do? When you believe that fate is sinking, those disabled compatriots have achieved results that you cannot believe.
is like the Athenian writer Sophocles said: Heaven will never help those who do not want to act.
God will not be willing to help those who do nothing. If you believe in fate, then you will only be wailing, and even the God you believe will not help. If you can make changes, then it is not God who will help you, but you will help yourself, without fate. Every result of
must be one's own willingness, either willing to compromise or pursuing to the end.
Ni Dahong, believes in the fate, but "slaps the face"
Dentist Ni Dahong is a man who believes in fate. He always thinks that Sun Honglei is a bad person. He will not bring happiness to his daughter. He does not really love his daughter. He tried every means to make Sun Honglei leave and disappear.
turned out he reached, because of his "betrayal", Sun Honglei was "shot to death" by the police.
But before Sun Honglei "dead", he gave him the living security expenses for Wang Luodan's mother and son.
Until this moment, the so-called fate he believed was a big joke, and his conscience would be condemned for his "betrayal".
In the play, Ni Dahong said: He does not understand what his daughter does. Daughter Wang Luodan said: Let him try to understand, she tried to make Sun Honglei be good.
He didn't do it, because he believed in fate, he compromised and accepted his fate. The daughter did, because she didn't compromise or accept her fate.
father-daughter conversation
Although in the play, because of the background and standpoint of the characters, Ni Dahong is this choice of resignation. However,
jumps out of the standpoint in the play and reflects the things in life. His incomprehension is like he cannot accept it in life. If he cannot accept the change in life, then only waiting for himself is assimilated and then perished.
Many complaints in life are like succumbing to the so-called fate. I didn't think about the reason or how to change it. I just kept wailing.
is like Ni Dahong's choice. He can't accept the change. He can't understand the change. He can only face it with the flow. This kind of life is like being enveloped by the so-called fate, and then sinking into life, passively accepting life.
is like ThaiGore said: If you shed tears when you miss the sun, then you also miss the stars. There are many explanations for the sentence
, but it can be understood in this way: Many people in life suffer from a blow, and then stay in regret. When you finally get out of grief, you miss another opportunity. You Lamenting the unfair destiny, it's just my inaction.
Everyone can only choose their own results, and they can only make their own decisions, complaining about the existence of others, and can only always compromise.
has no fate, only his own choice
director Cheng Er, through the different choices of these three people, seems very similar to Du Qifeng's fatalism, but the result is completely different.
Through the choices of Sun Honglei and Wang Luodan, he slapped the face with Ni Dahong's choice.
The so-called fate is just the result of everyone who is willing to believe and choose. Those who compromise will believe in fate, and those who do not accept fate will not believe in fate.
Sun Honglei’s choice to get back the drug money
seemed to bow to fate, but he was just to let his wife and children live a good life. He never resigned his fate, just because his wife and children were willing to bow his head, but from the perspective of his hiding the money, there was no compromise. .
Wang Luodan did not believe in the so-called fate, so she went to change Sun Honglei, let him abandon evil and do good, turn him into a good person, she succeeded, because she chooses to change, only Sun Honglei will be good.
Ni Dahong fell under the so-called fateful arrangement. He believed that Sun Honglei was not sincere to his daughter. He did not believe that he would change for the better. He could not make changes and could not understand her daughter. But in the end, Sun Honglei was "slapped". Whatever you believe is overthrown.
In the last shot of the film, Sun Honglei dresses out for the third time. He opens the door with a powerful sound, like opening the door to a new world. Through this shot, the director wants Sun Honglei to be reborn. He does not want those who resist fate. "Death", he is willing to give them another chance, but there is no in life, and some have only their own awakening. The director in the play can decide, but outside the play can only decide himself.
Conclusion
Fatalism is pessimistic and cold, but life is sweet and beautiful.
has never had any destiny, it's just that there are too many complaints against others, so this voice will appear negatively, because they don't want to change, they are afraid of change.
Everyone is independent, and you need to be responsible for your own choices. You can choose to do nothing, or you can choose to go straight up. Everything is the result you are willing to accept, not a fateful talk.
