From the very beginning, the perspective was very grand. I chose to start with the changes in the international situation. Chile’s Pitcino was in power, killing countless people and mercilessly, including the country’s drug traffickers and the only remaining drug maker. The drug traffickers, with the ability to survive like an unkillable Xiaoqiang, finally fled to Colombia, retained the "revolutionary" fire, and wisely chose the courageous and courageous Pablo cooperation. From then on, the system of drug trafficking centers in South America began to shift, and then The structure of the drug economy in the entire world has been changed.
Many of the characters in this film have the power to grow savagely, especially Pablo. After this encounter with the Chilean drug maker cockroach, he stopped reselling cigarettes and started a career in drug manufacturing and trafficking. Drugs are sold to the United States to earn dollars and benefit the people of the third world. Through intimidation and bribery, the local police organization was settled, and the low-paid police officers who came from a poor background quickly became angry with them. Immediately afterwards, drugs were transported to Miami on a large scale through land, sea and air, the soles of leather shoes and the belly of pregnant women. Human imagination has been unprecedentedly magnified in the face of the infinite pursuit of wealth. As a result, a drug empire with a daily income of 60 million was established.
The center of this empire is naturally run by his own brothers and family members, and then by the partners Luo weaves into his subordinates-other drug dealers, large and small, and then countless killers who have died for it, as well as being bought and coaxed in government agencies. Frighten officials who provide convenience and secretly communicate.
At the beginning, he was not the incarnation of crime and terror in people’s eyes. To the majority of the poor, he was "his own person", a hero who came out of the slum, a generous boss, who can provide housing for irrelevant people and provide shelter to the poor. Generosity, participation in all kinds of public welfare, all kinds of good deeds hit the faces of those oligarchs who do not care about the life and death of the people.
As Aristotle said two thousand years ago, if a few rich people rule the city-state, an oligarchic regime that only considers the interests of the rich will inevitably result. Finally, there is a power that can challenge it.
All in all he is a Robin Hood hero. In the land where the official power was disorderly and incompetent, he filled the gap left by this disorder and incompetence. He created wealth, maintained order, and provided relief. He was almost a king in a sense.
In the communities he built, the icons all have his face and are enshrined.
However, when he wanted to get out of this dark world and walk towards the glorious upper world, his reputation, strength and even inner desire all reached the peak, but then he fell into the cliff soon. A person from the bottom still yearned for that glorious world, even though there were oligarchs he despised, so he began to be tempted step by step by the female reporter like the viper in the Garden of Eden and began to walk to the front of the stage. Everything went so smoothly in the beginning, and the easy access to the Congress seemed like the president's throne was also at your fingertips. But when he walked into the hall full of lords, what he got was ridicule and accusations about his crimes. He walked out of this hall angrily, only to find that he could never return to the original world.
Because his identity as a drug lord is already known to the world.
The next step is based on this resentment, shame, and the maintenance of self-dignity, he began to fight and tear with the master of the glorious world. If he can be corrupted, he will use money to buy it, and if he can be scared, he will use violence to threaten, but the key to the problem is Yes, the lords of that world are not all bad guys. There are still some people who are righteous, don't care for money, and bravely fight against drug lords.
For example, the colonel in the film, or the president, has a Dustin Hoffman-like face and a sad expression of a martyred. As you can see from the plot, he is also from the bottom. Through his own efforts, he has received a good education (people call him a doctor). Maybe he is not the typical tough guy, but he is still brave. Sometimes he almost thinks. If the drug lord in the film can also receive a good education, he may become even more remarkable than the president. The most important thing is to win the respect and recognition he wants. But the emergence of magic comes from this kind of magical dislocation arrangement. Two men from the bottom to different successes, representing different worlds, started a war.
The following plot is magical realism enough. In such a disordered country, the only clean institution is the Supreme Court, probably because it is close to Mei Dao, with an independent judiciary and a group of judges free from outside interference. After the bribery and car explosion were invalidated, Pablo even hired a left-wing guerrilla. After a battle with the army, he broke into the Supreme Court, burned the full house of criminal evidence, and killed half of the judges. In addition, he also kidnapped tickets, tore tickets, and caused air crashes, so Robin Hood became a demon in the eyes of the world.
To say something off topic, the left-wing guerrillas are too symbolic in the film. Although full of ridicule, they are still exciting enough. They have a Che Guevara-like appearance. They are men and women. They are highly educated and lurking in the jungle. Here, striving for the realization of ideals, and in this magical land, there is communist subject theology, and the priest’s belief is communism. There is also such a disorderly country. In addition to having a good judicial team, it still silently observes the rules of not using the army easily, otherwise this gangster team that crushes the police will be easily crushed by the national army. So if it weren't for the daddy's support, this fertile soil would really not know how many people call it lonely and how many people are widowed.
Finally, the president surrendered in exchange for a nominal surrender. Pablo was admitted to the prison he built. In this prison, the police can't approach it, there are music, women, and meat. Here he continues to rule. Own kingdom and lived a long holiday.
The story that followed almost took a turn for the worse. He was stripped of his heroic coat. His longing and pursuit have long since died. He can't be the person he wants to be. In addition, perhaps the long vacation is too boring, so he starts to toss himself. Suspicion, cruelty, killing, these common symptoms of tyrants manifested in him. Moreover, those who were close to him, and those who were loyal to him, gradually disappeared.
In short, after killing the two remaining partners who were loyal to him, the matter was revealed, so the army drove over. Even if he kidnapped the president’s messenger, the president still unavoidably resorted to thunder means and used special forces, his Ronaldinho. They were beaten to death and fled by themselves. As for what was waiting for him, everyone could guess. . .
Pablo grows savagely in darkness and sin, but longs to rush to the sky and the sun and rain, but in the end he has to bow to the dark world, and finally fall into the dust and turn into decay. The magical reality probably comes from this. This kind of dislocation world and brute force wrestling and tearing.
