Although "Chinatown" directed by the famous Polish director Roman Polanski and "Chinatown Detective" directed by my country's director Chen Sicheng are both crime suspense films, both of which are the protagonist's investigation of the truth of the matter, both of them lie in the characterization and narration of the matter. Itself is totally different

"Chinatown" has a very three-dimensional portrayal of the protagonist. As a private detective, he does not want to have the observation and reasoning abilities beyond ordinary people like Qin Feng in "Detective Chinatown". In real life Jack is just An ordinary little person. Dissatisfied with the political darkness, determined to rely on his own strength to dig the truth. During the step-by-step exploration, he encountered a series of difficulties and ideological struggles, his nose was scratched by the underworld, and he was threatened by finger guns. These step-by-step dangers were frightening, and Jack faced this series of challenges. Difficulties have proper solutions. With the promotion of the plot, the audience's interest in watching the movie is more grasped and the event feels extremely real.

Behind the film are more political metaphors and the exploration of people’s hearts, while "Detective Chinatown" is a bit more commercial, with funny as the theme, and does not give the audience the feeling of horror like this film, as if the audience knows it. It's the same, the protagonist won't have any trouble. In every period, there will always be a dark force operating behind the politics, and these manipulators are people, maybe anyone around them, because everyone has their own desires, lack of money and greed for money, After having money, they are greedy for power, and then they are greedy for the future. People's desires always manipulate them to conquer everything, and they can't wait for everything to be at their mercy.

In the film, the incest relationship between Mrs. Morey and her father organically connects all the clues. All the truths have surfaced. All the clues are explored by Jack with his own body and spirit, rather than relying on the extraordinary. Observation and unlimited personal charm. The director and screenwriter are very clear about the development and trend of the plot of the film, and also understand how to narrate the time appropriately, which contains human emotions, but not vulgar. This is the perfect combination of art and commerce.
