Leaving his boss in the ward to rescue him, Ding Qing insisted on taking a group of younger brothers to a Chinese restaurant to have a meal with Li Zicheng to congratulate Li Zicheng on his soon-to-be-born child. Halfway through the meal, a phone call came. Ding Qing immediately rejected the first few sentences: "I don't take loans, I'm not short of money."
Considering that Ding Qing is being stared at by South Korea, he will never take a phone call that anyone can call (it is estimated that there are not many people who know this phone number). Then it is estimated that the loan call comes from China. After all, Ding Qing is doing legal business in China. There is a domestic mobile phone that is very normal. If you can make calls, of course, you can hack into the South Korean police station and destroy the data.
Think about it, it's really international.
Korean films and TV dramas are adding Chinese elements more and more frequently, except that the two neighbors are too close to each other and are easily affected, because the relationship between the two countries is indeed getting closer and closer. Just like Ding Qing played by Huang Zhengmin in the play, an expatriate from Lishui, China.
Ao, I highly recommend this film, it is an enhanced version of Infernal Affairs.
Chinese elements are actually quite natural in the movie. Some people questioned that there was a loophole in Li Zicheng's arrangement to go undercover, because it was difficult to predict that Ding Qing, who was still a low-level gangster at that time, would rise. Of course, Li Zicheng was not sent to undercover Ding Qing, Li Zicheng was sent to the undercover Beimen faction, it doesn't matter who is the boss. He was chosen because of his overseas Chinese status.
Speaking of overseas Chinese, it seems that our impression is that they are rich, have status, and have a good life. But in fact, not all, or even most, are not. Many overseas Chinese actually have a hard time abroad, living at the bottom of society and struggling. Especially in Southeast Asia and East Asian circles. Therefore, the North Gate faction of the gangsters with Korean overseas Chinese as the main body will appear. They just want to continue to live and not be starved to death.
So Captain Jiang looked at Li Zicheng, just like those Mexicans in American movies. To undercover Mexican gangsters, of course, it is best to find Mexicans. After all, fellow villagers have closer customs and habits, and it is easier to gain trust.
More importantly, it is more troublesome to check the background of overseas Chinese than to check the Koreans themselves, and it can better protect the undercover.
Another interesting Chinese element is parallel imports. It stands to reason that the No. 3 person in the group, the default successor, and the person who holds the largest business are definitely not short of money (indeed, there is no shortage of money, look at the car, and when you look for the hacker team later, how much is that sentence? both). But for his best brother, he just bought a cottage. If you buy genuine sunglasses yourself, you can't wait for everyone to know. These tiny parts faithfully reproduce the image of a once-poor Korean overseas Chinese.
Shanzhai is the calling card of our country, which originates from poverty. Because there is no money, so I bought a cottage, which gave birth to a huge cottage industry. Even if they get rich later, seeing the price tag on the original version that makes people feel too tempted, Chinese people who are used to living a hard life will still choose cheaper cottages. The rising Chinese people at the bottom remind themselves of the memory of poverty, not to spend, but to be diligent and thrifty. This is something that can be seen in Ding Qing.
Therefore, this film does not have the American flavor, it is South Korea's own characteristics. What do the rich guys in the American gang do? You look at Mexicans and black people, they start to get shy with a little money, big gold chains and small gold watches, they don't even care about Mercedes-Benz and BMW when they drive a car, they must be out of print, they need four engines, and they need to wear famous brands from scratch. To my feet, I wish I didn't even tear off the label to show that I just bought it. Russia's is better, but spending money to play is also a waste of money. Only Italians, low-key and economical, less pompous, but also because their ancestors were poor (otherwise why the mafia prevailed).
Talking about the movie again, I will find that Ding Qing is a completely strange flower in the Kinmen Group. Everyone else is dressed in formal clothes, but he is the only one who steps on a pair of disposable slippers, wears sunglasses, and wears a suit like a comedy entertainer at a party. Others are strictly hierarchical, and everyone is strictly abiding by their class status, but he is neither big nor small, gossip about his boss, and messes with his younger brother. When others found out that he was undercover, he would have to make a cement block no matter how much he kissed him, but he kept his brother and did nothing. When he was about to die, it was like the emperor's deadline was approaching, and he arranged for the crown prince to take the throne. Really strong Chinese style.
Finally, let's talk about the death of President Shi. Personally, I guess this matter has nothing to do with Li Zhongjiu and Ding Qing. As the former prince, Li Zhongjiu was loyal to President Shi. The reason why President Shi changed his mind was not because he had a different heart, but because he lacked the ability to become the boss. Li Zhongjiu is fierce and brutal, but he has no sense of wealth and does not know how to negotiate, so he can only be manipulated by others. Although the real beneficiary of the death of the chairman is him (if there is no police intervention), his personality decides that he will not use such petty conspiracies as accidents, because he does not like it.
Ding Qing is the best at doing this kind of thing. He is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. A casual look, in fact, the next step has been calculated. But President Shi's death was actually a victim, because President Shi tried to help him rise to the top, and his own forces could not compete with Li Zhongjiu in the group. President Shi's life was his best strategy. That's why he would suddenly ask Li Zicheng in the car if it was murder, and when he heard the news of his death, he slumped in the seat at a loss.
Captain Jiang is suspected, but the suspicion is not big. The police have worked so hard to find the evidence but failed, and everyone will be angry, and the good show of the snipe and mussels in the back really needs to be built on the basis of President Shi's death. But this is not direct evidence and it is not in the interests of the police. Captain Jiang hoped that the gang would be honestly controlled by him, and the sudden death of the gang leader would lead to gang infighting that he definitely did not want to see. Even being able to get out of the accusation is most likely achieved through PY transactions behind the scenes. It is very likely that President Shi is already willing to cooperate with Captain Jiang, but the incident happened suddenly, and Captain Jiang was only forced to play the difficult dark-line operation.
Director Zhang is a very suspicious person, sitting in the operating room with a ghost in his heart, and the sense of crisis caused by the collapse of his faction. Director Zhang is the kind of person who doesn't show off the mountains and dew. Anyone who mentions him will not think of a threat, so it is easy to let people relax their vigilance, and the method of car accident is also in line with the essence of four or two thousand pounds. But the only problem was that he no longer had anyone he could trust, and he was dying, so he had no way of starting.
What many people ignore is the external enemy that has never appeared. If you are a gangster, you will definitely have enemies all over the street, and those who want to kill you are waiting in line. Obviously, the person in the black car that came to the accident was not someone who was familiar with Kinmen. Otherwise, as long as there were survivors, the incident would be a big one. The accident was very accurate, and it was very hard (hitting all the way until it hit the guardrail), and the accident could not have been like this. The enemy's problem is that they can't accurately grasp the time.
Therefore, it is most likely that someone inside Kinmen tipped off the letter and gave it to the enemy, giving the enemy a chance. And the person who tipped off was most likely Director Zhang. (President Shi has many reasons to get rid of this guy who has no real power. Director Zhang can only survive if President Shi dies). After all, it is not difficult for the former boss of the faction to know the secret lover of the boss of the friend businessman. By entrusting the work to someone he does not know, he can get rid of the relationship to the greatest extent possible (who would have thought that a lost person would do this) .
