In the "Infernal Affairs" series, the most exciting is the second part. Everyone in it is pushed to the cusp of fate, making their own choices in an extreme environment, and love, family affection, and friendship are interpreted to the extreme. In contrast, the first part is slightly less bloody; the third part is slightly moderate.
I have always had no feelings for Zeng Zhiwei before, but in the "Infernal Affairs" series, I have to admit that he is the most three-dimensional and plump figure. From the beginning of the contented and always happy and grateful Maotou guy, to having to hide his true temperament and trying to survive, until he cultivated into the final cold-blooded and ruthless ultimate BOSS. As it is often said in the plot, people cannot change things, only things can change people. He believes in karma, so he doesn't want to make too many murders, and he doesn't want to be unable to eat at the same table with police friends at the end. The big wheel of fate ran over, he resisted, and the person he loved still left him. He finally succumbed to the arrangement of fate, ascended the throne of the boss, and became a "bad guy".
I remember such a scene. At that time, Han Chen still had the vigor of a young man on his face, and Superintendent Huang was an idealist. They sat face to face, Han Chen buried his head to eat, like a ghost reincarnated from starvation, and Superintendent Huang didn't look at him, he just talked to himself. His hesitation led to the death of his senior brother. In the end, he pulled out a gun and shot the gangster six times. The gangster was rescued and returned, and he was still doing his best after his sentence expired. Speaking of which, Superintendent Huang said with emotion: The golden belt of murder and arson, bridges and roads, no corpses, the world should not be like this, and life should not be like this. Han Chen just raised his head, smiled softly, and said, you are a good person before six shots killed anyone. Superintendent Huang then asked back, "Do you know why I didn't arrest you during your two years in Tsim Sha Tsui?" Because I think you are still human.
Still like a person, yes, he originally believed in Buddhism, believed that good and evil would be rewarded in the end, and he was trying to reduce his sins as much as possible; on the other hand, he was complacent, successful in business, beautiful in his arms, and the whole world seemed to treat him With his arms open, what else could he not be satisfied with? This time was a rare bright spot in his life. In such a time, how could he not be grateful? How is it not like a person?
When the moon is full, it loses, and when the water is full, it overflows. Later, of course, even God was jealous. Overnight, disaster strikes, career falls apart, and lover suffers misfortune. From then on, he was the only one left. I remember that when he was in Thailand, he could not protect himself, and he still tried every means to get back to his lover. The confrontation at the airport between him and the Thai was particularly exciting, and the Thai said, you know you can't go. He said, my woman is very dangerous in Hong Kong, I beg you to help me. The Thai asked back, why should I help you. He said, I helped you get rid of your boss, I know where you want to sit, and... He took out the gun he was wearing, put it on the table, and pointed the muzzle at himself... Bloody, decisive, in At this time, it was extremely evident.
I thought that there would be a turning point at this time: the Thai people would eventually be moved by Han Chen and help him return to Hong Kong. The gun finally rang, he survived the disaster, and returned to Hong Kong after his woman had died for a long time. The bitterness in his heart, except for Superintendent Huang, he told no one else. He said, a few months ago, I helped my wife make one... I asked some masters to read the scriptures for her for three days and three nights... During these three days, I hadn't shed a single tear... I didn't expect that on the day of the funeral, 廵The worker carried the coffin to my living room. At that time, I was very angry and wanted to beat someone. The master told me that this is a Thai custom. A dead person needs us to accompany her. After a while, she can rest in peace. , but I said to the master, my wife is not in the coffin, can she rest in peace? The master immediately held me here, he said, no problem, your wife is here, it just happens that this is where the Thai people shot me, I said to myself, I can't look back... my
lover's death, yes The last straw that broke the camel's back, his innocence, his romance, and his youthful feelings also went away... Overnight, he showed his old state, his face was not old, and his heart was vicissitudes.
At the end, he was in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the photo taken with his lover, and he was in tears. Outside the window was the fireworks of Hong Kong's return. He swallowed his choking, picked up the wine glass, turned around, pushed the door, and exchanged greetings with the people who had been waiting outside. It was as perfect as if death had never come, and everything had never happened.
The people in "Infernal Affairs" are not only Han Chen, but other people also have their own destiny, like Liu Jianmin, like Chen Yongren, like Ni Yongxiao, like Ni Kun, like Superintendent Huang... No one escaped. There is a saying in it, which runs through the whole time: if you come out and mix, you will always have to pay it back. It was Ni Yongxiao who first said it. He said, Dad has something to say, he always has to pay it back when he comes out to hang out. Ni Yongxiao's father is Ni Kun, who made his fortune by opening a small casino, and later became the boss of the underworld. He knew that he was guilty, so he had this sentence. As a son, Ni Yongxiao knows his father's words intellectually, and also knows that his father will have such a day. At that time, Hong Kong was very human. Ni Yongxiao finally spent four years enduring humiliation and burdening, and arranged the relevant steps for revenge, just waiting for the time to come. At this time, he was quite the shadow of Coppola's godfather. It's a pity that the chess was one move, and in the end, the half-brother's move was missed, and the success fell short, and the Ni family finally failed to clean up. He himself also responded to his father's words, and when he came out, he always had to pay it back. The hero is broken.
Liu Jianmin joined the team because of Han Chen's woman, but because he glanced at you in the crowd, he has never been with good people. He went to kill Ni Kun for her, he went undercover at the police station for her, and he gave up the opportunity to immigrate for her, just because she said that being a woman is easy, as long as a man is good, he can do anything. With a word from her, he was willing to give up his life. Even his marriage, he married Mary because she had the same name as her. At the end of his life, he had already forgotten everyone, but only remembered what he owed to her. Such a person can no longer be defined simply as a good person or a bad person. He follows his inner feelings. On another level, we do not occupy a higher moral high ground to criticize him.
Chen Yongren is relatively pure. He only believes in his own beliefs and firmly believes that he is a policeman and a good person. All of his actions take this as a starting point, and if there is a deviation, he will correct him immediately. When his enemy became his half-brother Ni Yongxiao, he was moved by his elder brother's spirit, wandering and hesitating. In the end, the idea of being a good person triumphed over everything. Although it is said that he is the spirit of the "Infernal Affairs" series, I don't like him because he lacks blood, as I saw a sentence not long ago: a person who is too attached to his own spiritual world must be selfish people.
As for Superintendent Wong, I just want to say one thing, he is the most deserving of the infernal affairs.
Once they are successful, they are all victims of the great wheel of fate. Over time, all of this will be annihilated.
