In "The Three Brigades" which is currently being released, there is a plot that made me wet my eyes in the cinema.
Cheng Bing, played by Zhang Yi, and his teammates from the Third Brigade encountered a series of murders and captured one of the suspects, but were imprisoned for causing the suspect's death during the interrogation. After being released from prison, they went to visit the grave of their master Zhang Qingliang. In the cemetery, Zhang Yi announced his decision. He would continue to pursue the murderer and catch the murderer Wang Eryong. His teammates were stunned. They all had In their respective lives, some sell insurance, some become toy dealers, and some have stalls in night markets. Maybe they can forget the past. If you continue to pursue the murderer, it means overturning the life you have worked so hard to rebuild after being released from prison. But within ten seconds, Xu Yizhou, one of his teammates, responded. He was willing to follow Cheng Bing to catch the murderer. Then came Ma Zhenkun and Liao Jian, and then Cai Bin, who had become a toy dealer. The three teams reunited. , a group of people embarked on the road to pursue the murderer. The successive responses from
people remind me of the popular replies on the Internet. If you agree with someone's opinion, +1, if you respond to someone's call, +1, or even +10086, they are all using their own ways to +1 . Cheng Bing gave +1 to his master, and Xu Yizhou +1 to Cheng Bing. Just +1+1, and a team was re-established.
There is the same +1 moment in "I'm Not the God of Medicine". Do you want to find medicine, do you want to save yourself and others? Cheng Yong +1, then Lu Yiyi, Peng Hao, Liu Sihui. I can’t remember the order. I only remember that they all gave their own reasons in order to make themselves less conspicuous. Those reasons, listen. It sounds so far-fetched, but the most fundamental reason may be to save himself and give Cheng Yong +1 to make him not so lonely and helpless. Also let yourself not be so lonely and helpless. All the +1s given by
seem to be given to others, but they are actually given to themselves. It’s because I don’t want to be alone and helpless, and it’s because I hope that when I stand up, someone will +1 me. This matter is like a deposit. The entire society is a big account. Someone has to save money and withdraw money when needed. +1 is to show some appreciation for this account.
I have had so many moments where I longed for a +1. Watching the short video, the murderer committed the crime, waving the weapon repeatedly. From the title of the short video, I knew that this was a scene of bravery, but those seconds seemed very long. I looked at the progress bar of the video, and I didn’t know when someone rushed. I didn’t know if the victim could stop until the end of the video. Finally, a passerby rushed up with a broom, followed by a second and third person holding various strange self-defense devices. Some even lifted bicycles. But finally someone +1+1+1. Looking at the report on Zhu Ling’s case, after she was injured, her classmate Bei Zhicheng gave a +1, and then there were +1’s from all over the world. This action has lasted for almost thirty years to this day.
When I first entered the society, one of the warnings an elder gave me was: "Go less to crowded places." At that time, there was a stampede accident somewhere, and I took it for granted that he meant: go to crowded places. It’s not safe. Later I gradually understood that going less often to crowded places may also mean not to follow other people’s opinions easily and not to blindly join a trend of opinions, even if the opinion seems so correct and well-argued. There are so many followers.
But in many cases, those who need us to follow and merge are actually one or two lonely people who only need our +1. There is so much unspeakable longing in +1. In 2024, if I still have any wishes, it would probably be +1. I don’t want others to +1 me, but I want to +1 others. Being able to give +1 to others means that you are safe and happy, and it shows that you are still tenacious. +1 is the strongest blessing to yourself.
But not everyone can be the +1 person. Especially in movies, we actually have great expectations for those +1 people. They have a kind of personality ideal and a kind of interpersonal utopia. Very few people are qualified for this role. So, when I knew that the story of "The Three Brigades" was going to be made into a movie, I took a look at the story and thought, this story can only be written by Zhang Yiyan. This is the story written for Zhang Yi.
The kind of dark fire-like person. The kind of people you can only see in western towns, forest farms, military camps, the Akon Playing and Singing Convention, the Naadam Convention, and in Rockwell Kent's prints. A very fragile yet very determined person in the torrent of worldly affairs. The kind of person who can bring some people together, the kind of person who won't leave even if he falls asleep drunk, the kind of person who makes people unforgettable for a long time. Someone you'll still be asking for news from years later.
The accidental believability of this story is established because of him. If it were another person, a lot of plot support and situational support would have to be added. At least half an hour of filming is needed to talk about the personal history and character development process to explain why this person is where he is. But where Zhang Yi goes, there is no need to say another word. You know that he will definitely do this, and you also know that someone will follow him. All the roles he has played in the past have guaranteed the instant establishment of this role.
This is a kind of existence that goes beyond acting skills and role allocation. It is a kind of existence like a spokesperson for social capital and social accounts. It is also the whole secret of Zhang Yi’s achievements, but this secret actually belongs to all of us. , embodying all our desires and all our hopes. All those who give us a +1 desire have a thousand words to say.
