White Lotus.
Treaty of Shimonoseki, ceding Taiwan, and submitting a letter to the public car.

Liang Kuan could never save Aunt Thirteen, and Huang Feihong was the hero who saved Mei.
In the first part, Aunt Thirteen made a suit for Huang Feihong; in the second part, Huang Feihong changed Aunt Thirteen into a Tang suit.

Zhang Tielin's Sun Wen felt a little bit of a long-awaited appearance. From the close-up of the pocket watch at the beginning, to the first saying that he wanted to help Huang Feihong translate, and then to Huang Feihong asking for his name, he turned his head and said that he was Sun Wen.

This narration of the medical conference: (1) The White Lotus Religion caused troubles regardless of whether it was right or wrong to see foreigners (2) Huang Feihong saw the advanced Western medicine, and regained a fortune through acupuncture of traditional Chinese medicine; (3) Huang Feihong and Sun Wen became acquainted.

A panoramic perspective view:
(1) "Wandering away, don't ask the cause, I saw the afterglow in the middle of the mountain, taking care of a worried person..." At night, in the street teahouse, the singers sang while pulling, this high-rise building Shang Huang Feihong was confused because he saw Aunt Thirteen changing clothes, and the white lotus sect was burning and killing him.
(2) The streets are crowded with people selling fried chestnuts and buying dog meat (feeding dogs with dog bones, implying cannibalism, implying that cults such as the White Lotus Sect are under the banner of helping the Qing Dynasty, destroying foreign countries and saving the country, but in fact the harm is innocent. own people).
(3) Those who buy lottery, hoping to get something for nothing.
(4) There are still people lying on the street smoking big cigarettes, struggling to survive in this troubled world.
! ! ! ! ! ! This panorama has all kinds of benefits! ! ! ! Nima, for this narrative, the sound and picture language, and all kinds of deep meanings, I want to add one star, five stars! ! ! ! This part is really rare in Chinese movies! ! ! ! ! It's not that there are no other movies, but in order not to be particularly provocative, but in order to avoid the perspective of the male protagonist's bitterness and hatred, and to avoid the unbearable criticism and sympathy that can't be done in such a calm manner. Avoid being so deeply portrayed in a few clips of "sorrow and anger"! ! ! ! ! Only the camera picture, accompanied by the singing singing, is vivid and vivid! ! ! !

[On the Internet, I took this song of the playing and singing artist:
The blind artist sang: "Wandering away, don't ask the cause, I saw the afterglow in the middle of the mountain, taking care of a sad person." There is a long way to go, and I can't help but feel sad. I was so confused that I burst into tears. I wanted to learn to write and join the army, and I wanted to work hard, but I was mistaken by the Confucian crown, which made it difficult for me to achieve my ambitions. I want to talk about five lakes and hide together, but I am enveloped by a demonic atmosphere, which is far from boundless. To say that the stone is rotten and the sea is dry, the love is not dead. Look at that deep twilight, the west wind is tight. Flying from the south to the north, geese are afraid to hear from the guests. Peace is not reported, ask yourself how can you bear it? Empty tearful eyes, looking at the cold and faint. Think I am affectionate and fraternity, both incompetent. Today, people in Yilou are far away, and the horizon is near. From then on, Piaoping and Duanjing have made many deep alliances and secret agreements, and every sentence has no basis. 】

Here, Huang Feihong taught the thirteenth aunt to take self-defense, while the thirteenth aunt looked at the shadow on the wall and fantasized about them dancing. \(^o^)/~

The court wants to arrest Sun Wen, and Huang Feihong will definitely help Sun Wen, so he is opposed to the court, and is opposed to Nalan Yuanshu played by Donnie Yen.

Aunt Thirteen pretended to have leg pain for Huang Feihong to carry on his back, and when he heard that something happened at Tongwenguan, he immediately became lively. This is a woman's innocuous little Jiujiu.

In the Tongwen Museum, there was a terrible tragedy. Because the Chinese were learning foreign languages, the White Lotus Sect shot these students randomly with arrows, and even peeled a human skin as a punishment. (There is a small detail here that is very warm. When Huang Feihong saw the human skin, his first reaction was to cover Aunt Thirteen's eyes.)

Huang Feihong easily picked up a child, Liang Kuan carried a child on his back and hugged him in his arms. One, so cute. ——The part of Liang Kuan holding the child to pee is also very cute, very realistic details.

The 48' stick battle is really amazing, Yuan Heping is a bull fork, various strength and speed angles, and the power of various real knives and guns.

Huang Feihong and Lu Haodong were talking at the embassy, ​​and it was only when Sun Wen appeared on the stage why he gave a close-up of the pocket watch instead of the front of the character:
Huang Feihong asked: "You seem to like to look at your watch often, are you waiting for someone? "
Lu Haodong replied: "This is a bad habit passed on to me by an old friend of mine. He said that Chinese people waste too much time." - This old friend must be referring to Sun Wen, so in this film, pocket watches are very important to Sun Wenlai is a sign.

This part of Chinese medicine and Western medicine saving people:
At that time, the Chinese who were injured by the White Lotus Sect could only escape to foreign embassies, and foreigners were willing to take in these injured people.
In the part of saving people in the embassy, ​​Huang Feihong's traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture and Sun Wen's Western medicine surgery can both save people, and they can both be Chinese and foreigners. The echo of this part is really good. ——There are a group of children lying outside the window. This scene must have left a deep impression on them. Tsui Hark can really take pictures. (Contrast and echo, study)
At the beginning of this narrative: the foreigners in the embassy did not want traditional Chinese medicine, but only Western medicine to save people, but as soon as Sun Wen came and called Huang Feihong, the traditional Chinese medicine finally amazed the foreigners. ——Look, this is the so-called "three correct views", even when the country is weak and the people are poor, it is not blindly bad-mouthing China.


The narrative of the White Lotus Sect’s night into the embassy is also quite exciting:
In fact, Nalan Yuanshu said a line a long time ago: “They (the counselor of the embassy) hid the rebels inside, but they wanted to use China to control China.” , This sentence is not unreasonable, foreigners are not so good, they hope that China will be more chaotic, and then it will be easy to fish in the muddy water.
So this time, Nalan sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, watching the White Lotus Sect massacre the embassy and ignored it.

Watching Huang Feihong's real-life battle in the Nine Palaces is really wonderful and breathtaking! ! From the altar to the beams, Nima's various highlights, Yuan Ping Niu Zai!

    The two battles between Jet Li and Donnie Yen were fantastic. Xu Laoguai's historical view is ahead of time and correct, and Hong Kong movies used to have cultural heritage!

    Re-watched it for the Nth time, and it was still very good. Although the White Lotus Sect was photographed as a group of mourning people, it is amazing to be able to toss this epic aura in the studio! In contrast, today's Chinese movies are called "affectionate fraternity and incompetence". "The Jade Emperor in the sky, the Hell King in the ground", you can see new ideas whenever you watch a good movie.
