"Like a Fire in the Flowing Years": A film and television work that reshapes brotherhood On a sunny day, the hutongs of Beijing are unusually noisy. A group of people were chasing, their mouths full of invective and shouting. On this day, Zhang Peng stole Zhong Yunan's wallet, and the story of the five brothers began ......"The Year of Fire", formerly known as "Once Upon a Time in Beijing", was finally completed after five years of strong suppression and countless deletions, alterations and prunings. This film and television drama is produced by Wen Muye, who has filmed "I Am Not the God of Medicine". The director and screenwriter are Han Xiaohan and Han Xiaohan, who previously directed "Miracle Stupid Child". An excellent film and television work is inseparable from important directors and screenwriters.
The structure of the story and the foundation of the lines need to be deep and solid, because golden sentences can pierce the starry sky and hit people's hearts. For example, the classic line of Xiao Ma in "The True Color of Heroes": "I waited for this opportunity for three years, I don't want to prove that I am better than others, I want to tell everyone;."I must get back what I lost!This film is produced by Wen Muye's Dream General Pictures, and has the support of Ning Hao's Bad Monkey, Xu Zheng's Zhenle Dao and Beijing Culture, which have been established since "I Am Not the God of Medicine", and have also become the co-producers of "The Year of Fire". The film and television works of the past two years are generally marked with nostalgia, and the story background focuses on the ** decade.
Today's society is full of contradictions, the economy has also fallen into a downturn, and film and television works have become people's spiritual sustenance. The 80s is known as the most beautiful era, an era full of fireworks and poetry, an era of openness, inclusiveness and feelings, an era of free and unrestrained thinking, and an era of a hundred flowers. It was a time when we made promises that we would remember and live by, and we could never go back to the past. The eighties were a time of passion, romance and idealism, filled with utopias in the hearts of intellectuals and ordinary people. At that time, the dreams of poets and poems about ideals and love were intoxicating, and when you read the poems, you were surrounded by envious eyes.
Remember back then, when young people would climb water towers?They will shout like a biaozi: "This and that will be my territory from now on!""Before materialism swept in, a bottle of Arctic Ocean or beer could make people talk about the vastness of the sky, and after a few glasses, they could speak freely, like mountains and flowing water. At that time, there was not only a love story full of tenderness, but also a heroic legend of chivalry fighting the sword world in the legends of the rivers and lakes. Gu Long was once asked, "How should life be spent?"His reply was: "Drink the strongest wine, make a fuss, and quietly leave." He also said: "I don't dare to take the name of heroes, but I like those heroes."
When he learned that Leizi went to find change alone to avenge the murder of his mother, Biaozi also did not hesitate, and they killed the sky and the moon. This is the rivers and lakes, this is the rules of the rivers and lakes!Although it does not represent justice, it represents morality, brotherhood, and the delicacy and righteousness that we miss. Similarly, when the Zhongjia family was wiped out, a group of social elder brothers were full of benevolence and morality to Xiaozhongzi in Anhetang, which was in the name of righteousness. Especially to those who had a better relationship with his father, he said, "He will take care of this matter to the end!""How ironic!It has to be said that the rivers and lakes are full of interests, cunning and sophistry.
But the set of the film definitely borrows from Johnny To's style, which is great!Kudos it!The first villain in the movie is somewhat like the crow in "Crazy Boy" we watched when we were young, and his combat effectiveness is like "Yanbian F4" in Korean movies. However, it was this man who destroyed the social status of **lake for many years, as well as the values they recognized. The five brothers, the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, they eradicated He Erqing, and also ushered in their glorious moment. They were in that small house, where their dreams began, singing karaoke, Alan Tam's "Friends", which was the most glorious era of Hong Kong and Taiwan. In 1985, lyricist Xiang Xuehuai collaborated with Alan Tam to create the song "Friends".
This song is used to share hardships, and Xiang Xuehuai hopes that Alan Tam can be full of strength when he hears this song when he is in difficulty. The lyrics read: The stars flow and you have never known each other, and it is difficult to know the heart when the heart is close, and after several storms, it is you who do not take half a step back. The 90s, an era of awakening, an era of vitality, an era of colorful, and an era of preciousness. In this era, the movie "The Year of Fire" has become an unforgettable memory. The story ends with the death of Flower Butterfly and the wanted arrest of Leiko, however, the director's ambition was realized in the nineties. This age is slow, smiles are real, and love is beautiful.
At that time, there was a tape recorder at home, and there must have been Teresa Teng's tapes. At that time, if you had a video recorder at home, you must have watched the earliest American drama "Garrison's Expendables". At that time, it was already great to have a Xiali sedan at home! What's more, those who play pagers, sit on the Toyota crown with the big brother in their hands, and even sit on the tiger head (Mercedes), they are like gods! After Biaozi was released from prison, she married Huazi's sister Hongmei, and her business became smoother and smoother!Huazi is a very key character in the play, just like every episode will have an off-screen character who begins with a narration. They gradually formed opposites. Black and white, gray has become a family of police and bandits. They met real ruthless characters.
Wu Yi will be born with a villain atmosphere, I remember that only in the "Winner is King" series that he watched as a child, Hong Feng played by him began to feel very ok. The present age of capital determines the age of the power class!Would anyone really risk their lives to save their brother?The Biaozi Club of "Like a Fire Flowing Year", after learning that Pengzi was taken away by the underworld forces in the south, was desperate. Leizi is still the same sentence as "five hundred follow to the end". It's so burning!This is the youth whose blood has died, and this is the true and kind friendship that we dream of. People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. knew that his brother was at fault, but saving him at that moment was all there was to it. Knowing that his brother loves this woman, he will quit and fulfill it. They fought too much, whether it was like a tribute to a Korean film blessed by Netflix, or a Quentin mash-up. It can be seen that the director is very attentive, they think that when the revenge is revenged, "Flower Butterfly" also played and sang "Tomorrow Will Be Better", my life is yours, and we will definitely become famous in the future. The spring breeze is incomprehensible. Blow the heart of the teenager. Let the tears on yesterday's face. Dried with the memory. The original lyrics failed to surface, and later Zhang Aijia, who was heavy on literature and art, made some changes. To say that the difficulty of this play is that when a group of people went to rescue Huazi, the tragic death of Hua Butterfly, Leizi was wanted;Biaozi was sentenced to six years in prison. This is where the story should have ended. But the director's real ambition was in the nineties.
In the entertainment industry, there is a feeling of exhilaration, like releasing yourself in the joy of fish and water. In these challenging times, we need to lift our spirits. The loss of eros is also a frustrating phenomenon. Let's take Kunming as an example: in the first decade, Nanqiang Street, Xinghuo Theater and Prospect Road were called the "Three Kingdoms". The area outside the small railroad built by the French was called the suburbs, and the inhabitants of that area were called "chu you" (peasants in the Yunnan dialect), while those who thought they were ahead of the fashion wave called themselves "playmates". At that time, even for dancing well or wearing a pair of bell bottoms, long hair and ** glasses, you will be the center of attention.
At the same time, another big brother, Diao Yu, also began to emerge. After a chance encounter, Biao Zi and Diao Yu partnered to engage in import and export smuggling. Diao Yu said to Biao Zi: "Your subordinates are very interesting. And Biaozi replied, "They are all my brothers!.""This is how we lived when we were young!The rivers and lakes we once had, just like Pete Zhu wrote in the book "Waste City": "Youth is not the impact of time to grow old, youth is the ...... that dies in an instant.""This memory is full of unique charm, as if with a touch of nostalgia. From the "Three Kingdoms" in Kunming to the partnership between Diao Yu and Biaozi, all this outlines the style of an era.
In those days, fashion and crime were intertwined, and the lives of young people were full of energy and endless possibilities. This memory makes people sigh that time flies and sighs. However, just as the wheels of time roll forward, these past events have long since become memories. That era of passion and vitality is gone, leaving only a faint sadness. However, it is these memories that make up our youth, which bloom like brilliant fireworks and then fade away in the long river of years. Memories are always so beautiful, as if they are an eternal ballad, which makes people fascinated.
In that era, whether it was South Wall Street, Xinghuo Theater, or the "Three Kingdoms" on Qianjing Road, it was a paradise for young people's dreams. There, everyone can be the center of attention, and everyone can be their own hero. This kind of free and easy way of life is fascinating. **Kunming in the 10s seems to be a unique time tunnel, connecting the past and the present. The passion and energy of that era, as well as people's yearning for life, seem to never be erased. There, the personality and charm of young people make people sigh that the years are quiet and the time is like a dream. The story of Diao Yu and Biaozi is also a portrayal of that era.
The cooperation and tacit understanding between them shows the courage and wisdom of young people. In that era full of challenges and opportunities, they chose to take risks and struggles to create their own legends. This spirit of bravery and hard work is still admired today. However, time flies and everything fades. That era full of dreams and hopes has become a part of the memories and remains in people's hearts. The baptism of time has blurred everything, but that good time still shines brilliantly. In that era, everyone was the protagonist of their own life, and every memory was an eternal legend.
Whether it is the bustle of South Wall Street or the partnership between Diao Yu and Biaozi, they all connect unique stories. This unique atmosphere of the times makes people intoxicated, as if returning to that era full of passion and vitality. Time flies, memories are eternal. That era full of dreams and hopes left too many stories and legends. Whether it is the bustle of South Wall Street or the partnership between Diao Yu and Biaozi, it is the epitome of that era. The baptism of time has faded everything, but that good time still shines brightly.
Let us miss that era of vitality and passion, and let us cherish those good memories, because they constitute the background color of our youth and make us who we are today.
