We only let the most upright people become citizens of UTS. These people happen to be very rich. ——The movie "Victory"
one
The Korean movie "Victory" is a science fiction movie starring Song Joong Ki. Some people say that "Victory" is the Korean version of "Wandering Earth", and some say that it is the Korean version of "Guardians of the Galaxy".
Are these two statements correct?
"The Wandering Earth" tells the story of mankind united as one at the critical moment of life and death, and put all of mankind's efforts to save themselves. In the film, human beings are united, there is no class, no confrontation, and they exist as a community.
"Guardians of the Galaxy" is not to mention, it is not about human stories at all, except that the crews of the two movies are more amusing, there is nothing in common.
"Victory" uses the shell of science fiction stories to tell the story of the division of human society and the frantic exploitation of the bottom by capital. An unexpected factor caused the crew of "Victory" to rise up to resist.
The background of "Victory" was set in 2092. The earth's ecological environment was destroyed and it became no longer suitable for human habitation.
A technology company called UTS builds a new home for mankind in earth orbit.
There, the green mountains and rivers, the sweet air, people worry about food and clothing, and laughter and laughter everywhere.
That is the Garden of Eden built by humans.
However, only a few people can live here.
As the boss of UTS and the villain of this film, Sullivan said: People who can become UTS citizens are very upright, and they happen to be very rich.
The remaining 30 hundreds of millions of non-UTS citizens just wait to live on the earth, linger, and earn money to eat and have to work for UTS.
The setting of the movie is more like the other two movies: "Elysium" and "Battle Angel Alita".
Simply put, human society is divided into "rich areas" and "poor areas", and there is very little room for the "poor" to rise.
"Victory" is the name of a space garbage recycling ship.
When UTS Company built UTS City, it produced a large amount of space junk.
They hire garbage recycling boats to recycle space junk.
Don't underestimate the job of recycling garbage.
The risk of recycling space junk first is extremely high. The speed of space junk is extremely fast, 10 times faster than the speed of a bullet.
It is also a highly competitive industry.
At the beginning of the movie, the scene where "Victory" and several other recycling ships compete for space junk is very exciting.
For a space junk, everyone will not hesitate to fight for a bloody battle.
In the end, the garbage was snatched by "Victory", do you think they are the winners?
not at all.
In the process of grabbing garbage, the spacecraft ran into an antenna of UTS, and the cost of recycling the garbage was not enough to compensate the antenna.
What's even more annoying is that they have to pay taxes for their worthless rewards.
This is the true status quo of living at the bottom (non-UTS citizens):
The internal madness is "involved", the external is continuously exploited by capital, and finally a drop of blood is sucked.
Kim Tae-ho, the driver of the Victory, played by Song Joong-ki, has been working hard to make money in various ways.
His adopted daughter was lost in an accident. Because he was a non-UTS citizen, he had to pay 194,000 yuan in cash.
It has been almost three years, and he still can't save the money.
For this reason, he even blacked his companion's money.
Why is this happening?
Because in addition to the meager remuneration, bank interest, fuel, oxygen, water, insurance, non-citizen taxes, how much money will be left after the payment?
That’s why he yelled to his companions: The harder we work, the more debts, right?
Isn't this the daily routine of 996 "community animals" every day?
Rent, water and electricity, transportation, mortgage, car loan, education, which one does not need money?
UTS's plunder of the earth is all-round.
UTS, headed by the villain Sullivan, not only exploits the surplus value of non-citizens’ labor, but also steals talents who can save the planet.
This is actually very easy to understand. In real life, excellent talents always gather in economically developed regions.
In China, talents are flocking to economically developed areas such as "Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou". Internationally, talents from backward developing countries are absorbed by developed countries such as Europe and the United States.
In the movie, Kim Tae-ho was once a citizen of UTS. He was recruited by Sullivan himself as a talented fighter.
Zhang Xianshu, the captain of the "Victory", was once recruited by the UTS Genius Project.
In the student days, he developed stereo lenses, lightweight laser guns, and electromagnetic pulse mines.
One is a heavenly UTS city, and a hell-like earth. You don’t need a brain with a high IQ to know how to choose.

Dorothy, also known as: Hua Lang.
The crew found her in the abandoned spacecraft, and her appearance triggered resistance from the members of the "Victory" and other bottom layers.
The name Dorothy has a metaphor.
The name comes from the American fairy tale "The Wizard of Oz".
In the story, Dorothy and her little friends are Scarecrow, Robot, and Lion. Together they defeated the Wicked Witch of the West.
In the movie, Dorothy (Hwarang) is the key factor leading to the demise of UTS.
She is the hope for the earth to be restored to life, representing sincerity and kindness.
The crew of the Victory corresponded to Dorothy's friends in The Wizard of Oz.
The captain Zhang Xianshu likes to drink while driving the spacecraft (drunk driving properly). He has a hot temper. A former genius girl, she later formed an armed organization to resist UTS. After the organization was eliminated, she changed her status and fled to this day.
Kim Tae-ho was one of the first geniuses recruited by Sullivan, and his combat power was exploding. After adopting an abandoned baby, his kindness was ignited. Because he could not continue to hurt others, he was expelled from UTS. It belongs to the category of "discard when used up".
Still fierce in appearance and soft in heart, the once big drug lord Park Kyung-soo. He distributed all the money he earned to the poor and was later arrested and sentenced to death. He has absconded to this day.
Brabus, an intelligent robot with strong combat ability. As a robot, he desires to have the appearance of a human being by skin grafting, and to have the appearance of a young girl.
This is a group of marginal figures at the bottom of society.
But it is also the most rebellious.

"Victory" is a standard assembly line commercial film, with more than neatness and insufficient innovation.
No matter it is the plot or the character setting, it doesn't make people's eyes shine.
The film is full of entertainment, special effects and special effects, scenes, funny, sensational, and a lot of commercial elements.
It can be read in one go, but nothing more.
Although the division of social classes and capital's exploitation of the bottom have been portrayed, it has not given a good solution.
When a villain dies, the system he represents will not collapse with it. The actual result is: another villain will come to power, the original system will continue to exist, the rich or the rich, and the poor or the poor.
The ending of the film is more like a fairy tale.
The fairy tale only says: The prince and the princess live happily together.
But the reality is: life after marriage is often just like a feather.
