I also like the finale of "Flowers".
I'm happy if it's not finished.
On the night of October 1, 1994, Ah Bao and Miss Wang both went to a five-year appointment, and the two made a mistake.
"The affairs of men and women come from the right time and place, and the difference of one cent and one centimeter is an empty door. ”
That night, there was a major event in Shanghai, and the Oriental Pearl became the new coordinate of Shanghai, with 10,000 people jubilating and four people haggard.
Ah Bao and Miss Wang are both onlookers of the Oriental Pearl. They are wrong. There is a heartbreaking poignancy to not meeting.
This article focuses on the analysis of the emotional line between Miss Wang and Po, which is mainly divided into two parts, the first part talks about the main plot line of episode 30, and the second part talks about the emotional line of jewelry from the perspective of soundtrack.
1. Only Miss Wang is constantly looking for Bao.
There are a total of four women in Bao's life, Xuezhi died young, Li Li became a monk after being released from prison, Reiko left Shanghai, and Miss Wang has been looking for Bao.
In episode 30, Miss Wang is a well-deserved protagonist. She has only one purpose, to find Mr. Bao.
Miss Wang took her superhuman-looking client to Tokyo for dinner at night, and after seeing off the guests, Reiko chatted with Miss Wang.
Reiko started the topic, "Is your partner still together?"”
Miss Wang: "I can't get rid of it." ”
Then insert Miss Wang's memories, Mr. Wei hopes to eventually become a family with Miss Wang, Miss Wang said that they can have a career together, and there is no need to talk about love.
So, why did Miss Wang refuse Mr. Wei?
There is only one truth, Miss Wang still has Ah Bao in her heart.
The evidence is that after the memories ended, Miss Wang asked Reiko "Po's whereabouts." ”
Reiko said she didn't know.
Reiko gives up Night Tokyo and leaves Shanghai, which means that she and Po have completely turned the page.
Miss Wang went to Huanghe Road to return the car, and after getting out of the car, she looked at Zhizhen Garden, and it was easy to understand that she wanted to return the car.
It's not easy to understand when you go to Ruth. Ruth is the foreman of the red heron, and the red heron is the hotel that Po frequents, and Miss Wang is looking for Ruth in the hope of getting Po's whereabouts.
Miss Wang and Jingxiu talked about the Yellow River Road and Cadillac, and there was still only one theme, that is, Bao.
I know how I walked in and how I got out. This sentence hides a Po.
On October 1, 1994, Ah Bao and Miss Wang both went to a five-year appointment, but one was in Pudong and the other was in Puxi.
The two of them are separated by the Huangpu River, which is more than 500 meters away.
I don't know if Ah Bao and Miss Wang will meet, but I know that on the day of National Day in 1994, Miss Wang still has Ah Bao in her heart, and Ah Bao still has Miss Wang in her heart.
It's just that Wong Kar-wai never likes to shoot the love myth of a lover who eventually becomes a family. This hobby is like the life of most of us, and people who love each other may not be able to get together.
There is an unsolved mystery at the ending of "Flowers", mentioning that Mr. Bao and Li Li knew each other before.
Is this a pit dug for the movie version of "Flowers"?
2.The soundtrack is the most Miss Wang.
Show the hole cards first, I'm a jewelry party.
The soundtrack also shows that the two people have the closest relationship - mind you, I used the most.
Flowers spent tens of millions of dollars on the soundtrack copyright, and many characters have their own exclusive soundtracks.
Miss Wang and A Bao's exclusive soundtrack is "Obsessed Without Regrets", Li Li and A Bao's exclusive soundtrack is "Wordless Ending", A Bao and Lingzi's exclusive soundtrack is "Sudden Love", Lingzi and Qiang's exclusive soundtrack is "In the Night Wind" and "Red **", Tao Tao's exclusive soundtrack is "I am a little bird", Lu Meilin's exclusive soundtrack is "What to Ask for in Life", and the exclusive soundtrack of the three sisters of Xiaojiangxi is "I Want a Home".
Among them, Miss Wang's soundtrack is the most, and the soundtrack of Bao and Miss Wang has the highest degree of overlap.
In episode 1, when Po had a car accident, "Friendship Lasts Forever" sounded. In the eighth episode, on Chinese New Year's Eve in 1988, Po and Miss Wang watched the night view on the rooftop of the Peace Hotel, and "Friendship Lasts Forever" sounded.
In the second episode, Ah Bao became the president of Bao, and "My Future Is Not a Dream" sounded. In the 25th episode, Mr. Fan encouraged Miss Wang to go to Shenzhen to find a factory, "My Future Is Not a Dream Ringing", and this song has appeared in the first episode since then.
In episode 8, Mr. Bao went to Zhuji single-handedly, and Miss Wang staged speed and love. After seeing Mr. Bao, Miss Wang yelled, "If you die, I won't see you." ”
This is the true expression of "life and death, talking with Zicheng", which goes beyond their self-proclaimed revolutionary friendship. At this time, the pure ** of "Looking Back Again" sounded.
Since then, "Looking Back" has become Miss Wang's exclusive soundtrack. In the nineteenth episode, Mingzhu Company held a banquet in Zhizhen Garden, and Section Chief Jin sent a philatelic book to Miss Wang, and "Looking Back Again" sounded.
In the 27th episode, Mr. Fan said goodbye to Miss Wang, and "Looking Back" sounded. In episode 30, Miss Wang placed Jinke, the master and apprentice embraced, and "Looking Back" sounded.
Miss Wang wanted "Looking Back Again", but she couldn't go back.
She is no longer the Miss Wang who was coquettish and startled in front of Mr. Bao, and she is no longer the Miss Wang who is the 27th with a clear voice and a frizzy voice.
She didn't become Wang Ke, she became Mr. Wang.
Episode 9, Chinese New Year's Eve 88, Po and Miss Wang date for the first time. "No More Hesitation" appeared for the first time, and this song was also given to Li Li, who had passed too hard, and to Miss Wang, who was robbed in the factory.
There is a rule here, most of the soundtracks related to Po will be given to Miss Wang.
For example, "Stealing Hearts", such as "Random Fate".
In episode 16, Po and Xuezhi meet, and the soundtrack is Wen Zhaolun's "Casual Fate". Parallel editing is used here, Xuezhi from Hong Kong and Miss Wang from Shanghai are strung together with "Casual Fate".
The Wordless Ending is an exception.
Ah Bao and Li Li went to Xinlanju to eat hot pot, and "Wordless Ending" would sound, however, there was no "Wordless Ending" in Miss Wang's role.
In episode 16, Po and Reiko said goodbye in Tokyo, and there was a song "You Are the Eternal Pain in My Chest", which was also given to Li Li.
In episode 22, Li Li got into Bao's car, I watched this scene as a boat scene, and the ** was also "You Are the Eternal Pain in My Chest".
Found out, right?Miss Wang's soundtrack style is optimistic and positive in her career, and the common tracks are "No More Hesitation", "My Future Is Not a Dream", and "Glorious Years".
In terms of feelings, "Obsessed Without Regrets" and "Looking Back Again" are the mainstays.
The soundtrack of the whole play, the song that appears the most times is "Looking Back Again" (1 time in pure ** form, 4 times in song), one of which was given to Linghong and Lingzi, and the other four times are related to Miss Wang.
My Future Is Not a Dream (Episode 1) and "Obsessed Without Regrets" (Episode 1) each appear four times each. They dare to appear three times in each of the "Night Wind" and "Red **", these two songs are more when Reiko and Qiang are together.
I also watched Po and Lee's exclusive soundtrack "Wordless Ending", which appeared in episodes 12 and 24 respectively.
And Xuezhi and Po's soundtrack is "Casual Fate", which only appears once.
If the statistics are not wrong, this can also show Wong Kar-wai's obsessive-compulsive disorder.
The women in Po's life, from Miss Wang to Reiko to Li Li to Xuezhi, have a common soundtrack with a frequency of 4-3-2-1.
Wong Kar-wai is obsessed with the four-character title and the number 46 (one masterpiece is 2046), and more than 90% of the length of "Flowers" is 46 minutes. If it weren't for the fame of "Flowers", I doubt that Wong Kar-wai would have changed the title of the play to "Prosperous Fall" or "Blossoming Flowers".
No kidding. Miss Wang is different from the other three women, she grew up with Po.
When Miss Wang met Bao, Bao was not Mr. Bao. When Miss Wang became Mr. Wang, Ah Bao gradually broke away from the identity of Mr. Bao and returned to Ah Bao.
Miss Wang is the person who has the longest life with Bao.
The jewelry line is so good to knock. When Miss Wang told Brother Jingxiu, "I don't want this car, what I want has never been Cadillac." ”
I understand Miss Wang, and there is the next sentence, "It's Mr. Bao's love." ”
After watching the finale last night, I realized why Po insisted on going his own way, and would rather offend his uncle than help Miss Wang.
I thought he was uninteresting and couldn't see that Miss Wang didn't need his own assist. I only thought of another possibility last night, Ah Bao believes that Miss Wang can succeed, "Miss Wang has her own algorithm" is the evidence that Ah Bao can see Miss Wang can win. His real purpose in helping Miss Wang is not for Miss Wang, but for his uncle.
I made my uncle angry, I just didn't want my uncle to be implicated. Single-handedly fighting wits and courage with the strong boss is his real goal.
Let's really not underestimate Po's kindness.
It's just that the kind-hearted Ah Bao may not be able to get the approval of Chinese parents, there is a fact that no matter how powerful Ah Bao is, no matter how good the person is, he is still a single dog who farms.
