The film of the same name adapted from the novel "Trident" by Lu Zheng, a post-80s police writer in Beijing, will be officially released in major theaters across the country on May 24. The night before last, a viewing party with the theme of "The Old Boys of Our Team" for the movie "Trident " was held in a theater in Shuangjing, Beijing. The film's director Gao Qunshu, lead actor Huang Zhizhong and the original author Lu Zheng talked with the audience about their impressions after watching the movie. . A retired police officer at the scene said that in recent years, public security-themed works have been particularly popular with the society, but there are not many that truly reflect the economic investigation police type. This film takes economic investigation as the leader, and also includes criminal investigation, pre-trial, patrol and other police types. They worked together to tell a wonderful story. When talking about the original intention of directing this film,
director Gao Qunshu said that he has filmed many police dramas and dramas involving crime since the 1990s. He interviews police officers every time and is familiar with this profession. "When I read the novel "Trident", I was first moved by the several police characters created by Lu Zheng. He provided a very good text and wrote about three old policemen who are about to retire and face tens of billions of money laundering. He was both public-minded and selfish, and finally regained his former glory," Gao Qunshu said.
Lu Zheng said that after watching this movie, his long-cherished wish was completely fulfilled. He started writing this novel in 2015, presented it in 2016, published it, and then adapted the film into a long production process. Eight years have passed before he achieved today's results. ""Trident" is different from previous crime-related themes. Unlike ordinary screenwriters who invent a heroic character, I wrote about three very capable people. They all have their own ambitions and abilities. They all think they are awesome, but the three of them face each other. When it comes to crimes, we will do whatever it takes to harm the common people. At the same time, "Trident" is about recycling the common people, so "Trident" is about local police stories in China."
The host asked at the movie viewing party. Huang Zhizhong, who plays Cui Tiejun in the film, uses animals to describe the images of the three old police officers. Huang Zhizhong said, "Cui Tiejun is the one who organizes the game and has the spirit of team fighting. I think he is like a wolf; the big stick Xu Guozhu is like a hound, attacking bravely and very quickly; Pan Jianghai, played by teacher Guo Tao, is like a fox, with nine twists and turns. The most cunning."
Talking about the actor's grasp of the role, Huang Zhizhong said that Lu Zheng's original novel first provided a good literary reference. During the filming process, several main creators kept communicating together and interviewed some current police officers to learn from them. "The police type itself also gives the characters a unique temperament. The audience can see it in this movie. We can capture the relevant atmosphere based on the temperament given to us by the characters in the film."
Officer Wang has been engaged in public security pre-trial work in Beijing for nearly 20 years. After watching the movie, he said, "Pre-trial, economic investigation, and criminal investigation police are different types, and arrogance and prejudice will also appear among them. Those who can complain in the pre-trial are called 'big trolls', while the criminal investigators are brave and resolute, and are called 'big sticks.'" Economic investigators are generally tall and tall, so they should have a 'big back'. The names given by Lu Zheng to these three police types are very vivid," Officer Wang said. He also saw the police's persistence in the film. When Cui Tiejun discovered. When my son had wages converted from stolen money in a fund-raising fraud gang, he asked his son to return the money in time. This very truly reflects the difficulty of the police's persistence in social life. A retired police officer at the scene said that "Trident" has become synonymous with outstanding police officers at the grassroots level.
