The earliest contact with Colin Farrell was in his 2010 work London Boulevard ("London Boulevard") as the local dragon Harry Mitchel and his classic line "Fuck off" (Fuck off). The first impression of this gentleman Ke is that he is not good-looking, but what makes people notice is his pure black straight eyebrows and his sharp eyes. After watching two of his films, I found more and more that Brother Ke was a rather imposing man. From this, I thought of three words to describe his image in the movie: steady, accurate, and ruthless. Guys, Colin in "London Avenue" is a heavyweight street hooligan. When the hooligans heard his name, they would only be frightened and run away, not to mention the fact that Brother Ke was fighting alone. There is a scene like this in the movie, it really made me look like a fox, as if I scare the hooligan away. Not even laughing!

Brother Ke's wisdom is not to fight casually, but once he finds out who is threatening him, he can strike first and ruthlessly. In addition, Brother Ke is a person who acts upright and dares to fight, so he will often provoke powerful people, including gangsters and gangsters.
Just as there are many villains in Baidao, hooligans are divided into gentlemen and villains. Why is the little guy so powerful? Because he can't control his own intelligence, he always calculates others habitually. Colin is smart and a real gentleman among hooligans. Therefore, the final outcome was unexpected, but reasonable: it confirmed the famous saying that "if you come out and mix, you have to pay it back". It can also be concluded that the villain cannot be offended, because he will always hold grudges in his heart, and he must kill people. Mr. Jin Yong's "Books and Swords of Enmity and Enmity" has such a passage to describe how to treat villains and gentlemen:

Xu Tianhong was unable to answer for a while, and after a while, he said: "Girls don't know that people in the rivers and lakes are sinister and treat friends, of course. Always put benevolence and righteousness first; but when dealing with villains, if you treat them with sincerity, you will be deceived.”

In addition, the historical stories of Guo Ziyi and the Tang Dynasty’s Biography of Traitors are also enough to reflect how to treat villains with care:
Another story is that in Guo Ziyi's later years, he retired to his home, forgetting his emotions to spend the years. At that time, the prime minister Lu Qi, who later appeared in the "Biography of Traitors" in Tang History, was not yet famous. One day, Lu Qi came to visit him. He was surrounded by a group of geeks who were raised at home, enjoying the fun with pride. As soon as he heard that Lu Qi was coming, he immediately ordered all the female relatives, including the singers, to retreat behind the screen in the conference room, and not a single one was allowed to come out to meet the guests. He talked with Lu Qi alone for a long time, and when the guests left, the family members asked him, "You don't shy away from our presence when you meet guests on weekdays, talk and laugh, why do you have to be so cautious when you meet a scholar today?" Guo Ziyi said. "You don't know, Lu Qi is very talented, but he is narrow-minded, and he will pay attention. He is not good-looking, half of his face is blue, like a ghost in a temple. You women love to laugh, no If you see half of Lu Qi's blue face, you must laugh, he will hold grudges in his heart, and once he succeeds, neither of you nor my children and grandchildren will be able to live!" Soon Lu Qi became prime minister. Anyone who looked down on him and offended him in the past could never get rid of the injustice of killing his body and raiding his home. Only for Guo Ziyi's whole family, even if there is a little illegal thing, he still saves him, thinking that Guo Linggong attaches great importance to him and is very grateful.
