The intersection of virtual and reality

Projecting the virtual onto real people is actually talking about staying in the United States.

Liu Mei had a dream of an idol singer, and transformed this dream into the image of Wei Ma and projected it on herself. In the first part of the story, studying in the United States to teach Wei Ma to go to the website is actually the foreshadowing of her identity as the owner of the website of "Weima's Ministry House". She approached Weima and wrote Weima's diary in Weima's tone. The diary is so real that the real Wei Ma has an illusion. Is there really another person in life who exists as an idol singer? At the same time, it is precisely because of the authenticity of Weima's diary that studying in the United States was able to convince the Weima madman that she was the real Weima, and the Weima madman became an accomplice in helping her do evil. The traffic accident notice Wei Ma saw in the elevator was a gangster who was in the United States instructing Wei Ma's madman to drive and destroy the concert. The screenwriter and photographer pushed Weima's idol image farther and farther, and Liumei instructed the Weima madman to kill the screenwriter and photographer. In the end, Wei Ma madman killed the manager, and Liu Mei took the opportunity to kill Wei Ma madman. And by killing the real Weima, I want to replace Weima and return to the idol singer I imagined. The film is both fantasy and reality. By switching back and forth between phantoms, studios, dreams and the real world, it shows the charm of Jin Min's style of the intersection of virtual and reality.
