1. Title of the film - Why is "Stone" "crazy"?
Jade, its chemical composition is sodium aluminum silicate, red is jade, green is emerald, and the bright green is the most expensive. But its essence is still natural ore.
There are countless natural stones. I don’t know why human beings favor jadeite. Maybe it is a rare commodity. Jadeite makes people forget its nature.
Stone is speechless and can't sing. It is countless thieves who make Jade become crazy. "Crazy Stone" reflects the strange status quo of society. Whether it is the RMB or the US dollar, it is nothing more than a piece of dirty waste paper, but people are thinking about it, worrying about it, and even losing their minds.
Second, the theme - the return and subversion of the "stupid thief baby story"
When we were young, we often hummed a song when we were herding cattle:
the moon rises in the 30th night, and the
stupid thief baby steals the water tank.
The deaf heard the sound of the water, the
blind saw that they were jumping over the wall, the
lame stood up and slammed it, the
dumb got up to scold,
broke the pole and fired a flashlight, and the
lunatic got up and finished.
In my memory, in the folk tales passed down from generation to generation by ancestors, robbers and thieves, without exception, are all "stupid thieves", which may be an important part of Sichuan regional culture.
Some people divide the human world into three worlds: temples (courts), rivers and lakes, and folk. The code of conduct, values, and cultural characteristics of each world are quite different. In a work of art, the author is more or less subject to the domination and subtle influence of various concepts and principles.
Judging from the prototype and motif of the story of "thieves" in film and television art, in temple culture, thieves do all kinds of evil, burn, kill, loot, run rampant in the countryside, and cowardly people dare not speak to them, but thieves are only fierce without IQ, and they are smart The good people are always full of ugliness. The righteous warriors draw their swords to help when they see injustice, but they often encounter difficulties. In the end, it is a judge pen of an honest official who seeks justice for the people. If good people unite (there must be a call from a spokesperson for a justice organization) to deal with thieves, they can always be easily defeated. For example, in Baogong’s story series about catching thieves, the more recent example is the encounter of Japanese soldiers who invaded China (also thieves in a broad sense). The three-year-old child is deceived round and round, always making some low-level mistakes, often straying into the ambush of the Eighth Route Army (or the guerrillas, Boy Scouts), and in the end always desperately retaliating and encountering disaster. Another example is the mainland police and bandit films after the 1980s. Most of them are one foot high and one foot high. The people's public security police can always solve the criminal mystery of thieves and bring thieves to justice. There are many examples in this regard, such as "The Magical Stealer" (director Shi Xiaohua, 1992), the female policewoman "Avalokitesvara of Thousand Hands" can't match the wisdom and courage of the female policewoman "Anti-Picking King".
In the "thieves" series of rivers and lakes, "thieves" are mostly enemies of the ruling class, and they are mostly gangsters. They are either highly skilled, or come and go without a trace, flying over the eaves and walls; or robbing the rich and helping the poor. , or to save people in distress. This is particularly prominent in Hong Kong films, and even the title of the film reveals the author's admiration and admiration for thieves. "The Jade Goddess Steal" (director Chu Yuan, 1967), "Spy Shots" (director Chen Desen, 1997), "The Next Generation of Thieves" (director Ye Weixin, 2003); and the mainland's "The Ever-changing Thief" (director Liang Zhiqiang, 1989, The Chivalrous Rogue Stories of the 1930s) and so on. In fact, such thieves are often the transformation of the knight, the embodiment of justice.
In the folk discourse system, a small number of thieves stories are the sprouting and blossoming of the Jianghu series of thieves stories left in the folk, and people's expectations for thieves are placed in them. Especially in the special regional culture of "Sichuan Mouse", robbers are rare, usually petty thefts, but they are not as smart as the common people (actually, "thieves are not as smart as me" that the storyteller thinks), as Bao Shihong put it. Said: "The thief smarter than me has not yet been born". Therefore, in "Crazy Stone", village thieves and international thieves, in the eyes of a small security section chief, are all characters who lack IQ.
Maybe we can compare Feng Xiaogang's "A World Without Thieves". Among them, Wang Bo (played by Andy Lau) and Uncle Li (played by Ge You) are two thieves who rely on technology to make a living. , As soon as he shot, he was planted in the hands of the fake police. If it weren't for the two "smart" police officers from the film bureau's Silly B hard fortress, the meaning and value of the movie might be much greater, because we don't know what Feng Xiaogang wanted to use to stop the robbery. Judging from the released films, Wang Bo was not defeated by his lack of skill and his opponents, but his true feelings became an obstacle for him. Judging from the stolen objects set in the story, the thieves in Jianghu have lost the principle and chivalrousness of "stealing is also right", and can only rely on a woman to stick to the last "stealing virtue". The film expresses Feng Xiaogang's sigh at the moral depravity of the rivers and lakes.
Compared with Beijing's temple culture and Hong Kong's Jianghu culture, Sichuan culture has strong regional and folk colors (people despise temples and don't believe in Jianghu). Therefore, Ning Hao chose to tell this story in the mountain city of Chongqing (the meaning here does not include the "laughing fruit" in Sichuan dialect). It can be said that the story of "stupid thief and child" in "Crazy Stone" is a subversion and rebellion against the "thief story" in temple culture and Jianghu culture, and it is also a return to folk culture.
The police in the film are completely negligent in this anti-theft campaign, although Bao Shihong graduated from the police academy and majored in criminal investigation, he is not a member of the state violence agency, but is just a state-owned enterprise that is about to go bankrupt (City Arts & Crafts). Factory), but he was the one who fought wits and courage with the thieves and thieves from beginning to end, and he was the one who used the most uncivilized law enforcement to catch Mike in the end. There are four police officers in the video. One is the traffic police dealing with illegal parking in real time when the three thieves committed theft in the name of moving. The traffic police couldn't see through the thieves' tricks. Later, we did not see the traffic policeman on the news screen broadcast on the bus. intervention. Second, the fire police questioned Bao Shihong earnestly after discovering that it was a false alarm. The third is that Bao Shihong went to the police station to report Xie Xiaomeng's kidnapping, but their reconnaissance was "carded" by Xie Xiaomeng's father. The last time was when the police appeared when Bao Shihong caught Mike. The ending of the police pointing their guns at the elevator was the same as that of the popular Hong Kong gangster movies. They always arrived at the scene of the dead body to clean up at the end of the "war". This is also completely contrary to the main theme of the movie.
At the same time, the Jianghu chivalrous thieves no longer exist in this film. From the cool and stylish appearance of the international thief Mike walking out of the airport, the director's stop-motion shooting almost modeled him. When this professional thief meets a thief, he is always the one who suffers. Immediately after he left the airport, he was tricked into stealing high-tech crime tools by thieves, and the thieves took the jade, and finally killed his employer in a foolish way. "The ridicule and subversion.
Brother Dao and his subordinates are typical representatives of Sichuan folk "stupid thieves". The two words that Brother Dao said to his subordinates the most were "quality" and "intelligence":
"Quality, pay attention to your quality."
(In the jade exhibition hall, his subordinate Heipi danced and said that he would smash the glass and take the jade. )
"What quality? What kind of wall are you knocking on in the middle of the night?"
(While the three of Dao Ge were studying the topographic map of the treasure temple, the three treasures separated by a wall shook Dao Ge's topographic map when they pinned the security map to the wall, Dao Ge He scolded. Hei Pi said to go and have a look, and Dao Ge said again):
"Forget it, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan.
"
(When the three of them checked into the hotel to steal jadeite, Brother Dao said to Heipi and Xiaojun.)
"You have insulted my personality and my IQ."
(Brother Dao's girlfriend Jingjing was soaked by Xie Xiaomeng, he tortured The jade that he gave to Jingjing was real or fake, he firmly believed it was fake, but Xie said it was real, but Xie had to say it was fake.)
Brother Dao, who is very confident in his "quality" and "IQ", can only deceive himself My girlfriend is busy with work, saying that she is in the rising stage of her career and has no time to accompany her, and she often engages in some unprofessional tricks to cheat money (on the bus, three partners want to use the trick of winning cans to cheat people for money, the whole car No one believed them. Later, the three treasures were tricked by a dead mouse and a blind cat), but because of "the small can't bear the big plans", the real jade that Xie Xiaomeng gave to his girlfriend was replaced by a fake one; In a hurry to snatch Bao Shihong's bag by the speeding car, he accidentally crashed into the car and died.
His two subordinates, Heipi and Xiaojun, are also "stupid thieves". The looks of the two are completely in line with the needs of the role of the face. Xiaojun is Dao Ge's preferred subordinate, but he likes to dig in Dao Ge's corner (want to eat Dao Ge's lover's tofu, and also said that if the fat water does not flow to outsiders, the fields can't be cheap for outsiders), and he always talks about "professionalism". ; Heipi is completely a "Guwazi", he doesn't need to think about anything, his catchphrase is "Why bother with this?". After failing to stage the "winning" scam on the bus, Xiaojun said, "I didn't get any results after I played all morning. This is not professional." ?" If under the leadership of Brother Dao, they can still compete with the international robbers Mike, Bao Shihong and others; then, when Brother Dao crashed into the car and died, Xiao Jun was accidentally caught, and the black skin was completely reduced from the little thief to a beggar. . At the end of the film, when the baker's motorcycle chases the black skin of the bread, it becomes a game of cat and mouse.
The burlesque performance of the three little thieves caught the appetite of all the audience. But the director's choice of actors and character dialects made the three "local thieves" foreigners. Brother Dao speaks Hebei dialect (actor Liu Hua learned the Hebei dialect from his elder brother's relatives), Heipi's "your mother" exudes a Shandong accent (actor Huang Bo is from Qingdao), and Xiaojun speaks from the suburbs of Beijing In the film, three thieves frantically "move" on the site of the "Bangbang Army" in Chongqing, colluded to cheat money on the bus, and competed with international thieves to steal jadeite. This just coincides with the common problem that most of the perpetrators in dialect films and TV dramas are foreigners.
3. Bao Shihong's Prostatitis - Desires and Anxieties of Middle-aged Men
We can now imagine a 35-year-old man who was born during the "Cultural Revolution" and whose mother had no milk for him, no rice or pork. For him, he can only eat some wild vegetables and sweet potatoes and drink some cold water in rice soup. He once had a dream of becoming a policeman, but it backfired. After graduating from the police academy, he could only go to the city handicraft factory to be the security section chief. Although he felt aggrieved, he still did his best to fulfill his duties, guarding a dead salary of 600 yuan a month, and guarding a family with his equally poor wife. Entering the new century (reasons: 1. Xiaojun sang "the first shit in 2002" when he went to the toilet; 2. The slogan in the exhibition hall: Emancipate the mind, study hard, be good at thinking and keep pace with the times), the aftermath of the reform of state-owned enterprises has caused the unit to face Bankruptcy, no wages for eight months, creditors come every day to ask for money. Suddenly, the unit accidentally discovered a precious jadeite when dismantling the factory building. Therefore, the factory director planned a handicraft exhibition centered on jadeite. Since the unit had no money to pay for insurance, he was asked to be responsible for the whole process of safeguarding the exhibition. As a result, the anxious look on this good man's face became even more solemn.
He is Bao Shihong, the protagonist of the film. A special representative of middle-aged men in modern society.
Bao Shihong is a good worker. He abides by his duties in the unit, abides by his duties, and has never made up his mind about expensive jadeite. It can be said that he is the only person trusted by the factory manager. He sticks to the status quo and the hope of a better life, although "you can't pick up a Hongta Mountain if you pick up a cigarette butt", although the exhibition hall is set up in the incense hall of a temple, "even the door can't be closed", and there are thieves everywhere. gap. But he still obliged to accept the important task of caring for Jade. When he and Sanbao were placing the jadeite, Sanbao said: (Jadeite value) 8 million, and I won two grand prizes after planning the tax! But he said: It is worth 4800 in my place. Sanbao said: I give you 8400, you give it to me! Bao patted Sanbao's head: You are obsessed with ghosts. He is simply the unit's security door and safe. During the nursing process, he tried his best to prevent thieves from stealing. When he found out that the jadeite had been stolen, he could not sleep and sleep like a thunderbolt. He fought against the suspect and his right-hand man, Sanbao; mad. He is the only one in the whole unit who regards Jade as life. Later, the factory elder, Lao Xie, sold the jadeite and the company to Feng Dong, a real estate developer. All the people in the factory welcomed the new life with smiles. Only he angrily rebuked Lao Xie for "selling out his conscience" and "selling out the whole factory, young and old" (Sambo is out of Loyalty to help him); only he guards the last fortress of the professionalism of the employees of state-owned enterprises, and conservatively and paranoid maintains the last dignity of state-owned enterprises, but as the sun goes down, his protection is destined to be isolated and helpless.
Bao Shihong is a good old man. When a person reaches middle age, he can't see any great ideals, except that the police belt he wears shows that he still has a police complex in his heart, and his former dream has long been empty. He treats his lover sincerely. He also attached great importance to his friends. He suspected that the three treasures had lost the jadeite but refused to call the police. What he considered was the future of his friends and their families. He doesn't make trouble with the outside world. When he smashed Siyan's BMW, Siyan scolded him and beat him, but he didn't fight back, and he didn't bargain for the 8,000 yuan claim. He needed cupping with a glass cup, and he could only swallow his scolding at the two hotel waiters who were consuming melon seeds and texting all day.
He was very confident, and at first he ignored all the thieves. From the beginning to the end, almost all his judgments were wrong: the "high voltage and electricity" designed by him "relentlessly deceived" could not stop Xiaojun's black leather insulating shoes from leaping; He thought it was the "Bangbang Army" who mistakenly "knocked the mountain and shook the tiger" for the thieves; Xie Xiaomeng, the son of the factory director, praised him that "you can't take it away even if you have your bag covered by a god", so he opened the cabinet to let Xie easily drop the bag; Sanbao went to Beijing to "redeem the prize", he thought it was Sanbao who had lost the package to Jade, and then beat Sanbao indiscriminately; he always misunderstood that Mike was sent by Four Eyes to stalk him to prevent him from owing 5,000 yuan to escape;... Although he made many mistakes , he is still very confident in his IQ, and often uses the criminal investigation knowledge he has learned to judge the situation. He looked down on the police's so-called "civilized law enforcement", saying "a bag of white ash and a smear on his face". Later, he dealt with Mike in the elevator. This was the trick, and it was his only successful trick. It can be said that Bao Shihong's victory over thieves is not a victory of IQ, nor a victory of "professionalism", but a victory of professionalism and persistence.
All the predicaments Bao Shihong faced, Baichuan returned to Haiti to focus on his prostate inflammation. It is born of everything, and everything exists because of it.
The first shot of the film shows his physical distress - he can't pee when he wants to. The shattering of the dreams of young policemen, the increased work pressure in middle-aged people, the tense source of life, and the worsening of a car accident and the responsibility for the livelihood of more than 200 people in the whole factory made Bao Shihong feel even more depressed, so his Prostatitis is getting worse. Using the theory of psychoanalysis, Bao Shihong's prostatitis is the result of suppressed desire, showing his inner anxiety and fear. This is also the general psychology of modern middle-aged men who were born in the "Cultural Revolution" and whose youth began in state-owned enterprises. feature. According to what he said in the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon, "the five elements are mutually generated, and the internal fire is governed by the external", Bao Shihong's internal fire is too strong, which is caused by the external pressure of survival. He once picked up a sword on the ground abruptly by the pier (we can understand that this situation is a revelation of his heart, not a real scene), and learned the Peking Opera tone of Bawang and shouted: Cang Clang pulls out the sword , Hualala horses step into the camp - the sword is usually seen as a symbol of the genitals, here it symbolizes that Bao Shihong's inner desires cannot be satisfied and released, so it is suppressed, anxious, and fearful. come out.
The film repeatedly presented his distress that he couldn't urinate. At first, he asked the doctor for treatment, and returned to the unit to start cupping. When he went to the toilet after resolving the fight between the factory manager and his son, he hid in the stool pit when he heard the factory manager's footsteps entering the toilet, and unexpectedly heard Xie Xiaomeng "defrauding his father". ” conspiracy, he was very envious of the smoothness of the flush toilet when the factory manager chased and beat his son, but suffered from his own blockage. When he became a "public toilet" where the thieves "come and leave whenever they want", he couldn't urinate in the toilet, so he smashed the tunnel and the water pipe angrily, the water pipe burst and sprayed freely, but he looked in the mirror in pain Curse yourself: You can't even pee out, you fool! From the beginning of the film, he has been suppressing his desires and anger, and then gradually released it. From scolding thieves, hitting three treasures, and making a scene at the company transfer meeting, his "internal fire" was slowly vented. When the fact that the unit he guards is sold cannot be reversed, when all the thieves are wiped out, when he trades "fake" jade for the warm support of his lover, when he arrests the international thief (this is undoubtedly the best way to shatter his police dream) After returning), he poured a thousand miles in the toilet, and experienced the unparalleled happiness and pleasure of urinating smoothly. Once the desire is released, the inner anxiety will also be resolved. In the end, Bao Shihong liberated his urethra and liberated himself.
4. Lao Xie and Feng Dong - the fate of state-owned enterprises and the rogue nature of real estate developers
The city handicraft factory in the film is a representative of small state-owned enterprises in the mainland. In the 1990s, the system was restructured, and the factory manager responsibility system was implemented. After struggling for several years, the crisis has not been alleviated. In the new century, the city handicraft factory is faced with the dilemma of not being able to pay wages and going bankrupt. Fortunately, the factory occupies a good piece of land in the city, and real estate developers are coveted by it, and they want to defraud that treasure land through borrowing and loans. But Xie, the elder of the handicraft factory, was a piece of ginger, and while the eyebrows were on fire, the handicraft factory found another piece of expensive jade.
So jade became a life-saving straw for saving the lives of more than 200 people in the handicraft factory. Lao Xie wants to turn the tide through "Emerald set up a stage and perform economic drama". Although the exhibition took a lot of risks, but relying on Bao Shihong, the treasure of the town factory, Lao Xie gave it a shot. Obviously, Lao Xie has no confidence to increase the game weight with real estate developer Feng Dong through jade. Therefore, when Feng Dong promised to bid 8.5 million to buy jade in the factory and merge with the city handicraft factory, Lao Xie was "eating" in exchange for it. Under the sign of "cooperation", I readily agreed.
Lao Xie had no choice but to agree to Feng Dong's request, because even after the handicraft factory repaid the debt by selling jadeite, "there is only one empty shell" and "more than 200 mouths to eat". The factory is as dedicated as Bao Shihong. There are not many workers. The workers go to work and paint every day. It is also Sanbao's fist to maintain order. As the head of the first factory, making the factory "dead early and reincarnate early" really "did a good deed". It is the fate of all small state-owned enterprises to let powerful enterprises "eat" themselves, and it is also the inevitable outcome of their reforms.
In recent years, due to the support of the bureaucratic government and the injection of financial capital, China's real estate has become abnormally developed, and it has almost become the most lucrative, most inhumane, and farthest socialist bubble industry in China. Therefore, the film chose real estate developers to "eat" state-owned enterprises. Among them, we can't see the power of the government. If it is in reality, most of the real estate developers will buy the government. However, the film set up a plot of a real estate developer buying an international thief, trying to let the international thief steal the handicraft factory's game weight, but it was unsuccessful, and Feng Dong's small business cost a lot of money. Furious after his defeat, he killed his assistant who had been fired and threatened himself. When Siyan was fired, he said to Feng Dong, "I know what you've done. Eight lifetimes in prison are not enough. I know there are pockmarks on your ass, so you can sit here and wait for the police." The sinful and rogue nature of a real estate developer's fortune is clearly revealed in this sentence. We can't help but want to give another fist to Ren Zhiqiang and others' insubstantial remarks.
5. Pseudo-artists - the pursuit of sexual satisfaction at all costs
I've always been skeptical of the pseudo-artists' pseudo-caring for the underprivileged. Walking on Shangxiajiu Road in Guangzhou, the sculptures of farmers, porters, and beggars made me very angry, and the so-called spokespersons of migrant workers in newspapers and magazines made me disgusted-artists all day long, posing as if they were saving sentient beings, playing with cameras all day long. Playing word games to defraud the royalties, and then the bar disco sensuality is drunk to death, and also brazenly advocates paying attention to the bottom, just look at the virtues of you when you are drunk, you will know how hypocritical!
Comparatively speaking, Xie Xiaomeng is still a relatively simple liar.
Xie Xiaomeng firmly believes that "fighting with dady is endless fun", and often defrauds his father's money to pick up girls. And his method of picking up girls is nothing more than under the guise of art. He said to Bao Shihong:
"I specialized in body art in Hong Kong, but I was forced to become a tabloid reporter. Do you think it is forcing good to become a prostitute?"
To himself I feel unsatisfactory with my status and status, so I have to find pleasure in women. He clings to Brother Dao's girlfriend, Jingjing, and pretends to show off what "mother city and uterus" he is researching in front of her. Flattery words, supplemented by money jewelry, and even the real jadeite from my father's factory is sold to win women's favor. In Daoge's words, "You kid is really paying for a girl!" In
today's world, men consume their bodies, women It is physical consumption. Artists use their bodies to make money and then consume women's bodies.
6. The director's introspection - Ning Hao corrects himself
. The smart director will not let the characters in the work complete their lives according to their own settings, but enter the work by himself to observe and reflect the characters' lives. Many big directors in the world do this, such as the recurring old man picking up trash in Antonioni movies, the cyclist in raincoat popping up in Angelopoulos movies, Kubrick's trademark in every movie. Appearing in a movie, etc.
Half a year ago, I was pleasantly surprised by Ning Hao's excellent performance while watching Ning Hao's last film "Green Grass" (aka "Mongolian Ping Pong", 2004). The young director at the age of 27 has already walked ahead of many predecessors in storytelling, which is really the hope of Chinese films. However, in my opinion, a Han director who lives in a yurt for a few months and makes a film that reflects the living customs and values of the local people needs to set a character or plot for self-reflection in the film, because we are in When intervening in the life of another world, no matter how hard you try, it is only a perspective, and you can only see one aspect. So I think Green Grass is a film that lacks the introspection of the director.
Ning Hao is not from Chongqing. In the film, he reflects the confusion and anxiety of middle-aged people. This time, he realizes that he cannot forcefully intervene in the life of the characters in the work. So, in "Crazy Stone", he chose the first shot himself to play the doctor to diagnose the protagonist Bao Shihong. Although the role played by the director is not necessarily an introspective character, in this film, we can see the doctor's appearance as the director's introspection on the film itself.
The director's introspection seems high profile. At the beginning of the film, only three blurred shots were given to the doctor, one was a close-up flat shot, and two were shot upwards, one of which was used as a backdrop for the examination of Bao Shihong's disease. Ning Hao used the identity of a "doctor" to "diagnose" the protagonist of the film. He said to Bao Shihong, "Apart from not being able to urinate, what other symptoms do you want to urinate?" "Come, I'll check it for you." "Don't be afraid." Three lines have already diagnosed Bao Shihong's prostate, who was screaming in pain on the hospital bed. From the later episodes, we infer that the doctor did not give Bao Shihong any cure for his inability to urinate, but only asked him to go back to cupping ("internal fire and external treatment"). Later, Bao Shihong solved his physical illness by himself. The audience was beaten to death by Bao Shihong and others, and they could not see the doctor's shadow. This seems to be understandable as a metaphor: to other people, to this era, each of us can easily point out their ailments by naming them (such as "the disease of the era"), but we can't prescribe them a cure. . Calling ourselves a doctor is a habit of each of us, but the doctor in the film is self-aware.
From not introspecting to just right introspection, Ning Hao surpassed himself.
7. Soundtrack - the finishing touch to the work
Finally, let's talk about the soundtrack of the film.
In addition to Peking Opera elements in the film (weird, why didn’t the director use Sichuan Opera? Maybe I didn’t hear it), musical elements were used many times, especially music with lyrics. Among them, the theme song at the end of the film and the three supporting songs impressed me deeply.
Let me start with the best song I feel. At the beginning and end of the jade exhibition, the film chose the theme song of the TV series "The Legend of Muyu Stone". This song was written by Zhang Minghe and composed by Lu Yuan and Cheng Kai. It was once sung by Yan Weiwen and others. The lyrics are as follows:
There is a beautiful legend, a
beautiful stone can sing
, it
can joy to the kind,
as long as you understand its
preciousness you can get it from a long distance
. Hi...
There is a beautiful legend, a
beautiful stone. It can sing,
it can give strength to the weak, and it
can also give harvest to the diligent.
As long as you keep it in your heart, you
will not be lost for a long time.
Hi ...
When the exhibition started, people came and went to see the exhibition, and Bao Shihong was nervous. On the scene, the songs drifted around the ancient Luohan Temple, and it seemed that a beautiful legend was really brewing.
However, this is a legend that is not beautiful. The beautiful stones do not sing, the strong are still strong, the cowardly are still weak, the kind people have no joy, the diligent people have no harvest, the thieves never leave the mountains and go far, and they have been lost for a long time. At the end of the exhibition, the stone has changed hands and the legend has ended.
Let's talk about Andy's "Forgetting Love". The films that Andy invested in use his songs and subtitles can be saved without writing. This song appeared twice in the film. Once when Bao Shihong and Sanbao were practicing the car, Xie Xiaomeng's cans that fell from the cable car broke the car window. At that time, "Give me a cup of forgetful water" was playing on the car. , almost euthanized me at the time. The second time was when Dao Ge found his girlfriend Jingjing and Xie Xiaomeng sleeping on the bed, planning to kill with a knife. "If you've never been heartbroken/You won't understand my sadness/When there are tears in my eyes/Don't ask who I'm for/Just let me forget all this/Ah give me a cup of forgetful water/I don't cry for a night." As a result, poor brother Dao still left sad tears for love.
I don't know what the third song is called, and I searched the Internet and no one knew it. Appeared when Xie Xiaomeng met Jingjing for the second time in the game hall, the lyrics sung in the film were: "I love you dear girl / I panic when I see you / The wind blows slender hair / caresses me Those eyes that are already fascinated", Xie Xiaomeng was already fascinated without drinking, this song adds a little ambiguous mood to the pair of dogs and men.
Finally, let's talk about the ending theme song. The ending song is called "I Am Chongqing Cubs" (see Appendix 1), and the lyrics are full of the blood and arrogance of Shancheng people, as well as the customs and culture of Chongqing. Since the characters in the film, except for the protagonist Bao Shihong, basically speak foreign accents, and Guo Tao's Sichuan dialect is also so-so, so this song has basically nothing to do with the film. As for the theme song "Tired Fighting Tired" written by Andy himself later, it was written in Cantonese and sung. I don't understand it, nor do I know what it has to do with the film.
———————————————————————————————————————
Appendix 1: "Crazy Stone" ending song "I am Chongqing" Lyrics:
Once upon a time, there was a mountain, and there was a city on the mountain, and the head of the city was nowhere to be found (read lăo) a group of people from Chongqing.
The men are black and upright, the women are black, and they are never allowed to eat hot pot without sea peppers.
The messy skin wants to make money, the mountain city beer is drunk, the drunk who can't drink, and the can't help lying down.
Anyway, when I get home, I want to make that ear droopy, so the brothers have to stand up when they are beaten to death outside.
You don't know, I don't know, no one knows, there are so many levels in the ridge of Chaotianmen.
Bangbang is never afraid of heat, and thief is never afraid of the dark. No matter how many beauties there are in
Jiefangbei, the bell of Jiefangbei, my guest, still rings on time. No matter how small the boat at the dock is, it will make waves.
There was not as much boat as bridges, not as much fog or rain, watching cars pass by the road on the roof.
Winter has the nectar of the roadside in summer, and summer has the temperature of the fire in winter.
Men don't admit defeat, women don't cry, all the spicy seasonings are great supplements here.
Once upon a time, there was a mountain, and there was a city on the mountain, and there was an old group of Chongqing people living in the city.
The men are black and upright, the women are black, and they are never allowed to eat hot pot without sea peppers.
If you play badly, we will call him brother. Since childhood, his grades were not good, and his classmates called him reckless. The girl only rakes her ears, and the boy doesn't have a square head. The person who angered me is in danger and I kicked from behind. When I was eating, I had to call my little sister when I was serving food. My mother called me when I was young.
