John is a symbol of England

John is a symbol of the United Kingdom. During the countdown to the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from Hong Kong, with John's eyes and cameras, we find a different Hong Kong, a confused Hong Kong, a Hong Kong that is afraid of losing its freedom and democracy. But as long as the economy can develop, China can still give Hong Kong a sense of security. With reluctance and pain, John finally fell asleep in the beautiful Victoria Harbour. The camera in his hand was still shooting, and he was still shooting Hong Kong after the British invaders left. It is still beautiful and full of vitality.


John has been in love with Gong Li for many years and has always been by her side silently, but Gong Li is watching over Zhang, a typical Chinese man who is difficult to marry her home under the Chinese moral system. This is also a symbol, a symbol of Britain's love for Hong Kong (Hong Kong is a treasure, everyone is rushing for it), but this love will eventually return to Zhang (China).


whatever, Hong Kong will always belong to China, this is an indisputable fact, just like Taiwan, we will never allow anyone to have any **

    I said I don't watch Wang Ying's film anymore, but I forgot to check the director because of the three leading actors. = =It was my mistake//Compared to the two films I've seen before, the look and feel is obviously better, although it's also quite a crazy political shooting maybe It would be better if the director could make these superficial symbolic expressions deeper.//These three roles should be familiar to the three leading actors. After all, they are also stereotyped by the outside world to some extent.

    If you can touch it, but you can't touch it, how is Hong Kong? Anyway, in my heart, Maggie Cheung is Hong Kong.

Chinese Box quotes

  • John: Money, money, money. That's all you hear.

  • John: Just a week ago all I wanted was to tell Vivian how much I loved her. But now I see that's the one thing I mustn't do. I can't offload my illness onto her, or Jim, or Mary and the kids. I don't want the look in their eyes to remind me I'm dying. I wonder if I can hold out longer than the British. Not that I could be described as an empire.
