The Chinese are so good at guessing. Guessing seems to be a pretty pretending activity in ancient China. Guan Ren likes to play with shooting, not only appears to have a blast of IQ, but also circumstantial evidence of the theory of "Yi". Famous ministers such as Li Chunfeng and Liu Ji left behind a few ballads and pictures. Later generations even guessed and misunderstood, and they could see that the Cultural Revolution had come, and that China was bound to perish in the 21st century. Little Japan came to fill the gaps in our country early. Nostradamus is such a big flickering blank.
The Chinese love to guess riddles so much that even things that are not a mystery can be regarded as a mystery. Watching tortoise shells, watching Qianxiang, watching Fengshui...If you catch a giraffe in Africa, you can tell that Ming is about to flourish. This is not a mystery but a strong solution.
Isn’t the story of Lost Highway just a story about the death of an adulterer and an adulteress who have been repeated thousands of times in the novel? David Lynch added some irrational monosodium glutamate, psychoanalytic anomalies, psychedelic with vague subject and object, and then cut the film into the pot and stir-fried it again. When it was brought to us, we still gave him this unique recipe. I studied it a bit. He doesn't know the Chinese riddles, not only the faces, but also the riddles. Some puzzle grids read the two characters in the puzzle as one character, or split one character into two or three characters, or add characters directly as needed, or read one character twice in a row, or split one or two characters directly Go, come to fit the mystery. In some riddles, a word is deliberately pronounced as a homophonic, or deliberately pronounced as a variant, or deliberately pronounced as a variant, or partly interpreted as justice and partly interpreted as a different meaning to fit the riddle. In other puzzles, the radicals of the same radical are removed, or a certain character is added to the specified radical, or the radical of one character is removed to lend to another character, or the order of the two characters is reversed, or All the words in the puzzle are rotated from the inside to the outside or from the outside to the inside to fit the puzzle. David Lynch’s tried and tested tactics in Lost Highway, Mulholland Dr., Inland Empire include breaking a person into two people who are distinct from each other (such as Renee and Alice), or turning a person into an independent person. (For example, The Cowboy, "Men without eyebrows" is the external reflection of the protagonist's evil thoughts), or realize the characters' inner desires as specious "suspected reality" (such as director Adam's doom), or create some confusing meaninglessness Elements (such as a small wooden house restored from a fire), or reverse the order (of course, it can also be said that this is a mode of cold jokes, such as the story of the stone hitting the rice cake into the sea, and the story of the little pig being thrown away by the mother pig , And then deliberately talk about an irrelevant plot, and at the last look, wow, the rice cake and the pig brother are back). To solve these tricks, one can learn from the solutions of Xu Feige, Yizhuge, Huanqige, Suhuangge, Yubange, etc., omitting small differences to understand the big unity, or interpreting the actual meaning as a fiction, or referring to Lu as If the fish refers to the hog, or remove interference elements that are irrelevant to the original meaning, or move a plot back and forth in the entire content, the truth can be drawn. Conan kids taught us: "Wow, a new magnet, a model of Cito magnet!"
Compared to other guessing activities in the art field, David Lynch is not a pioneer. From Homer’s epics to Kafka’s novels, people who read books began to guess puzzles; from Raphael Dali, people who watch paintings began to guess puzzles; from Gregorian chants to Kirt Cobain’s incomprehensible lyrics, even Everyone who listens to the song is fucking guessing. The process from Zhuang Shunxiaochang to the obscure and mysterious is accompanied by the development of Western civilization. The inhabitants of the earth have watched Westerners solve natural mysteries one by one, and enjoy the fruits of solving the puzzles. Now they have used literary works to present more mysteries of life that may never be solved, encouraging us to treat ourselves in a spiritual dimension. Some understanding and development of the essence of. After all, human beings are lacking creatures; mystery is the destiny of life.
Fortunately, we also see with mixed feelings that our Chinese people's detached and aesthetic guessing activities are also advancing with the times. From X'an, Shanghai to Harbin, from peek-a-boo, nightmares to handing out toilet paper, from a pair of underwear stained with body fluids, a car that deceives a horse, to a pedicure knife, countless IQs as high as 170 in all parts of the motherland People, succumbing to sleep at night, are struggling with one word and one word, and they work tirelessly to discover the real mystery! Even if the mystery makers claim that this is not a mystery, even if the mystery makers vowed to come up with the only "answer", people still believe that the answer lies elsewhere, and people's enthusiasm for guessing is getting higher and higher. The person who set up the riddle may not be as cunning as David Lynch, but the person who guessed the riddle has come up with a method that the ancients also regretted. However, whether these riddles will be deciphered eventually, or will remain a mystery forever, is probably the biggest mystery in our minds!
