Sudou Kyoichi (played by Chen Xiaochun)
used a small amount of space to describe Kyoichi in the movie, but he is indeed a character that must be mentioned. Because a professional racing driver is needed to set off the protagonist in the movie. His appearance is a studded leather jacket, black leather shoes, black Evo, all black, only his turban is white. White is actually a very pure color, but it stands out, especially when it appears in a pile of black. There is no doubt that Jingyi is a fan of racing cars, otherwise he would not be a professional racing driver, and at the same time he is eager to win, so in his few lines, there are two words said on different occasions. His mentality "Do you want to have a second time?" "I know very well who Ryosuke is, I will not lose to the same person, twice."
Yes, Jingyi is eager to win, but this kind of winning mentality does not Not deformed. As the saying goes to Michael Jackson, only a pure person can make music like that. Jingyi can achieve his own achievements in racing, presumably he will not be a dirty person. There are two reasons. He said "professional drivers and amateur drivers are all drivers", which shows that he respects amateur drivers like Takumi and Ryosuke; and the word "order" behind his rivet leather jacket, which shows that he has principles , The principle of a professional racing driver is different from Liu Genghong's Yancheng Qingji. The back of Qingji's clothes is "impulsive", which is already very pretentious in English. Besides, the meaning of this English is "impulsive, willful". It may be precisely because Jingyi used this principle to demand himself, so he was obsessed with losing to Ryosuke, did not allow himself to lose in the game, and even risked his life in order to win the game. So there was a tragic ending. He covered his eyes with a white turban and walked into the boundless night. His black Evo III was no longer there, but the white color still stood out and was still gorgeous.
Zhongliyi (played by Shawn Yue) Zhongliyi
's appearance in the film is not as concentrated as Sudou Jingichi, but he has never changed his clothes, which may make Shawn Yue's fans crazy, but in "Initial D", he It is Zhongli Yi, he is just Zhongli Yi. The shiny black Adi is also black, but it is not made of leather, so it is not as sharp as Jingyi's leather jacket, and it will be softer, which will make it easier to explain his friendship with Ryosuke and the others.
At the beginning of the film, Zhongli Yi wants to compete with Ryosuke, but Ryosuke refuses. In fact, Yi is as famous as Ryosuke, but everyone can see clearly in the film that he didn't win, he didn't win anyone. And the personality is very different from Ryosuke. Have you noticed his expression? When talking outside the car, whether it's overlooking the scenery on the mountain, or chatting with Ryosuke at a convenience store, he has a very handsome expression. But once in the car, his expression was nervous, restless, and restless. There is also the expression of his character through his car. The GTR is a very heavy and domineering car. If the AE86 cannot be as light as a swallow, naturally it cannot drift beautifully. But the GTR is still Zhongliyi's favorite car, and the car is just like the person - arrogant and impulsive. Yi is using horsepower to compete with other people's drifting.
Because it is a racing-themed movie, close-ups of the feet are essential. Naturally, the shoes were photographed. Yi is wearing air force I classic white (my favorite shoes ❤). AF1 is a shoe that has changed from sports shoes to trendy shoes. It is very versatile and looks good with any pants. Generally, people who choose the all-white AF1 are very good. Therefore, it can be seen that Zhongli Yi is a person who has his own choices, just like he chose GTR, no matter what else, as long as he likes it is enough. Anyone who has worn the AF1 knows that this shoe is prone to creases at the toe, and the solution is to loosen the laces. I saw Li Yi's toe cap in the video, the folds are still very shallow and the shoes are still new, which means that he is either wearing new shoes or not tying the shoelaces very tightly. AF1's new shoes are very hard, and the soles are too thick; the laces are too loose, how to drive, or how to drive the kind of car that is going to race against people. A pair of shoes is very important for driving, at least the film wants to express this meaning. Otherwise, there will be no close-up of Takukai's father driving barefoot, this is also to show the state of a casual and expert driving. When I say so much, what I want to say is actually one meaning: AF1 is not suitable for racing. It is more like showing that Zhongli Yi is a handsome guy, rather than the image of a specific driver appearing in the film.
Natsuki (Suzuki Apricot)
The only woman in the film who can write, but love is not the main line of this film, ideals and inspiration are. So the heroine's narration is naturally less than that of ordinary movies, but her emotional influence on Takumi is still great. As soon as Xia Shu appeared on the stage, like a pure student, Tuohai showed his unique feelings for her. They chat together under the beautiful scenery and take pictures on the romantic beach. Compared with the thrills of racing, Natsuki and Takukai are relaxed, happy and romantic together. Tuohai smirked all day because of Xia Shu, Tuohai and Amu fought because of Xia Shu. There is no doubt that Xia Shu has a lot of weight in Tuo Hai's heart. Why? Because Xia Shu and Tuo Hai are the same, they have been classmates since childhood and grew up in a single-parent family. Therefore, Xia Shu understands Tuo Hai, his vulnerability and his ideals. She saw the scars on Takukai's body, and said that this is how he felt like a man. It was also that she encouraged him to find his own world - racing.
The character of Xia Shu has changed, and there was a foreshadowing before (I mentioned my uncle once). In disguise, she sees selling herself to an old man as a job, which may have something to do with Japanese culture. Before she fell in love with Tuohai, she didn't think it was a shame. She felt that the man kindly helped her and her mother, and even said that the money was too much. She thanked that man, because it was with this man that she could live her life, which fully reflected Xia Shu's simplicity and kindness. The man's face is not shown in the film, but judging from his smoking and Xia Shu's description of him, one can roughly tell his age and identity. The film does not need to explain too much to the audience to see it at a glance. Everything changed when love came. We can see that the first time Xia Shu accepted the money given to her by that man, there was a bright and beautiful smile on her face, which made people completely believe that her happiness came from the heart. By the end she cried and said she didn't want to see him think about what happened between them. Love is still great, she made such a big change in a girl's inner thoughts.
Amu (played by Du Wenze)
Amu is the laughing point of this film. Almost as long as there is his appearance, there is a ridiculous place, and he does everything he can to exaggerate. Motion sickness can vomit for days, and nosebleeds can go on in a fight. He clearly loves his father very much, but he has been bickering with him all the time. Often thieves have no guts. So big, still drink milk all the time. Yearning for God, or wanting to be like God. If he can't become a god himself, he regards Takumi as a god.
Amu is a simple and lovely person. If you want to give him an identity, it is Tuohai's good friend. He said that he was the god of Qiu Mingshan and said that he was the boss, but when Tuohai showed his strength, he was not jealous at all, but cheered for him wholeheartedly, and was willing to pay for his friends. Others said he was a waste, he said it was okay, but when he and Tuohai fought for Xia Shu, he was so serious, he jumped up again and again, punched, and threw things. When have you seen Amu so concerned about something? No. But this time we saw it, and we also saw his true feelings for Takumi. After the incident, Amu also called Tuohai and apologized to Tuohai. We all know that Amu was right about this matter, but why was Amu the one who apologized first? Not only did Amu get punched, but he could not even get rid of the man's so-called face, but he couldn't lose Takuhai as a friend. To have such a good friend in life, what more can I ask for.
Ryosuke Takahashi (played by Edison Chen)
Ryosuke is probably the person with the most lines in the film besides Amu. Amu's talkativeness is more for fun, while Ryosuke shows his wisdom all the time. He is a master of theory. He can even know the history of Takuhai's father when he goes to Takuhai's house, not to mention that he is a hobby racing car. A series of professional vocabulary, people feel that he is amazing without understanding. If a person's strength is based on a solid theoretical foundation, it is very scary. Ryosuke is such a character. He is unusually calm and always uses his brain to do things. When others reject his request, he will ask others to consider giving him an answer, giving others a way out and giving himself a way out. Knowing how to take the opportunity to get into Zhongliyi's car and discover his weakness when driving, he will also deliberately run behind Takukai to learn his running method. A person with a brain knows exactly what he wants, but he is very broad-minded and high in quality. If he wins, he will lose if he wins. He walks his own way and lives his own life. He didn't feel ashamed when he lost to Takumi, but showed a charming smile, which is why Takumi was willing to join his team in the end.
Ryosuke's most moving scene was when Takukai and Jingyi were racing, the AE86 reached its limit, and after it broke, Ryosuke said something to Jingyi and Seiji's teasing: "You are professional drivers, how can you do that? Look up to us...amateur drivers". After speaking, he showed a charming smile and patted Takumi on the shoulder. The director made Edison Chen so handsome, and the smile was so charming. This series of actions shows: 1. He is angry at the domineering of the Emperor's motorcade, but he is very forbearing. 2. He is comforting Tuohai, putting himself and Tuohai in the same category, and narrowing the distance with Tuohai through this sentence. Why did Liang Jie say this when he clearly won Jingyi? People who are confident enough can laugh at themselves.
Ryosuke is wearing Dior's rebellious white retro shoes, which are comfortable and noble; the car is a white FC, which is graceful and dexterous; the whole film is dressed in a trench coat, which is chic and stable at the same time. Speaking of which, have you found that Ryosuke is a very perfect character, indeed, he is not the fastest runner, but he is indeed the perfect representative in the play.
Fujiwara (played by Huang Qiusheng)
Wentai is the most complicated character in the film, because he has drawn many clues, the father-son relationship with Takukai, past emotional experience, racing career, and friendship with Amu's father.
I don't know if Moon Tai is a good father, but he loves Takumi for sure. This kind of love is not said on the lips, but is hidden under the contrast of external behavior. He hits Tuohai, but it is the only time in the film that he makes an intimate gesture to Tuohai, touching Tuohai's head. On the surface, he doesn't care about Takumi's growth, but he cultivates Takumi's ability secretly (put a glass of water in the car). Everything at home is taken care of by Tuohai, but he is actually very distressed and concerned about Tuohai (Tuohai was sad for Xia Shu, he eavesdropped outside the door). He didn't seem to care about everything, but he went to watch Takuya's game, and went home before Takuya pretended that he hadn't been there. There is also a rare, unspoken understanding between father and son. Tuohai said a few words casually, and Mrs. Wen knew that Tuohai needed a car; Tuohai squatted in front of the car, and Dad knew Tuohai's inner confusion, and immediately took him up the mountain to demonstrate. Demonstration can be mastered by only doing Takukai once, because they are father and son, father and son who depend on each other for life. The two even drive the same way.
There is no positive narrative in the film about Wentai's emotional experience, but I think it is more powerful to describe it from the side. Drunk until dawn, the house is a mess, loves to see beautiful women, and looks like a pervert. This shows that he has a painful past, and he needs to drink to cover his sorrows. At this time, the director arranged for Ryosuke to explain the reason. Fujiwara gave up his ideals for a woman, but in the end he didn't get any results, his wife left, and he was left alone. It turned out to be because he was severely hurt by the woman he loved, that he had the attitude towards women now. At the end of the film, Wenta heard that Tuohai was going to join the team, and showed a sincere smile. We saw the depth in that smile. He was happy that his son did not let him down, and he did not become depressed because of the woman. He believed that his son's strength would definitely be able to walk out of his own sky.
Mrs. Wen is the real car god in the film, so Liang Jie and Zhongli Yi will look for him at the same time. Yi found the wrong one, and Liang Jie found it. He may not have any other specialties, but he can convert the AE86 into a top sports car in the shortest time. Tuohai's drifting technology is inherited from him. Looking at how powerful Tuohai is, one can imagine that Wen is too powerful. He drives barefoot, which is a casual guy, but also shows that he is a top player. Wen Tai carried a square scarf with him, which was actually tied to his hands to prevent slipping when he was driving. But he carries it at all times, which strongly proves that although Wen Tai has left the racing world, his habit is still retained, and he is still the god of Qiu Mingshan.
Fujiwara Takumi (played by Jay Chou)
has been in this movie for five years. During this period, I had a guess. I said that Takumi is definitely a Capricornus. Because I was going to write this homework, I went to check it out, and I scared myself. I guessed it right! Capricorns are paranoid and proud, have outstanding achievements in their own professional areas, and will be vulnerable, but in the end, their dedication to career and professionalism will defeat this vulnerability.
Tuohai has always had absolute confidence in his driving skills, otherwise he would not nod his head when Amu said, "You only got your driver's license last year"; he would not make an agreement with Ryosuke to wait for him to change his car before racing; he would not encounter a GTR on the road just won it. As a driver, Tuohai doesn't understand anything, only a car god father is still a former one, but it doesn't matter, Tuohai appeared as a genius. Takukai's restrained modesty stems from his family. Single parent, so sensitive. It doesn't matter to others' provocation. But when it comes to what he really cares about, he becomes extremely serious. Such is friendship, such is family, such is love, such is driving.
Takumi drives in gray New Balance, New Balance's presidential jogging shoes. New Balance shoes, some people think it's ugly, some people think it's ordinary, but they won't lose people who really understand it. Grey, understated glam, the shoes are soft and comfortable, and absolutely perfect for driving. Tuohai's car is the AE86, which is not good-looking, but after modification, it is full of goods. Tuohai said in the play: "I still like to drive my AE86". Who would doubt that the 86 is the most suitable car for Tuohai. 86 had a twist and turns, and then changed it into black and white. This is actually in preparation for the final race. Jingyi is an all-black Evo, Ryosuke is an all-white FC, and Takukai is a black-and-white AE86. It is intended to show that Takukai is not a professional driver like Jingyi, nor does Ryosuke's wise mind and abundant theory, he is Takukai, who seems to be the most inconspicuous but is the one who finally won the race.
Takumi is the protagonist of "Initial D", through him, the film tells us that people should be positive. Everyone has their own world. And all the pain and disappointment in the process of leading to this world is just a test, and the strong and brave people will pass the test and finally come to the other side of their dreams. The 4500-word character analysis I have not read any information or evaluation of other people's film reviews, all belong to the family. My feelings for "Initial D" are hard to describe. I think it must have touched and inspired many people not only for me, but also in the summer of 2005. I think, I get it.
