After the release of "Seventy-Seven Days", no-man's land has returned to people's field of vision again.
The male protagonist of the film has all the characteristics of the current youth in literary and art: he is confused and overwhelmed in urban life, wants to pursue true freedom, and believes that Tibet, or this kind of feat of crossing no man's land, is his soul. home. In order to fulfill his dream, he came to Lhasa and met Jiang Yiyan, the innkeeper who was physically disabled but still had a beautiful smile, and she still had her own unfulfilled dreams, two people who wanted to explore herself and freedom. , and thus embarked on the journey across the Qiangtang side by side.
During the journey, Jiang Yiyan, a disabled beauty, gradually removed her disguise and burden from her companions, and told about her experience of injury and the past of flying on the African grassland. The hero was also moved by her optimism and strength. In Gang Rinpoche, the girl could no longer cross the no-man’s land and returned to Lhasa first. She made an agreement with the man to wait for him in Lhasa. . In China, no-man's-land seems to have always been a traveler's dream, but very few really succeed. The hero prototype of the film, the writer Yang Liusong, tried to cross in 2010, but ended in failure; in 2014, Li Congming tried to cross the Qiangtang but disappeared mysteriously, and his life and death are unknown to this day; only in 2016 did explorers cross the A no-man's land. In the process of crossing, the male protagonist has experienced countless hardships like learning from the west: a sandstorm filled with yellow sand, and was chased by two hungry wolves to run behind; a sudden snowmelt flood almost washed him away, and a land tornado blew Run all gear including bikes, tents. Short of water and food, on the 76th day, both the audience and him knew that he would never be able to return to Lhasa. He was exhausted and fell forever on the land of Changtang.
This 77-day journey was not over in the end. No man's land remains a mystery to China's outdoor adventurers.
In fact, in recent years, there have been many films made in Tibetan areas, such as "Zuanshan" and "Kang Rinpoche", all of which describe the lives of Tibetans. But the appearance of "Seventy-Seven Days" always reminds me of Lu Chuan's "Kekexili". The background is China's no-man's land. Maybe the director has a plan to compete with "Kekexili". The main body that can be selected is different, so that it is weaker than "Kekexili" in terms of ideological height. Too much use also leads to its authenticity and shock, which is not as good as the huge impact of the calmness and restraint of "Kekexili" on the audience.
"Kekexili" was filmed in 2004 and is well-known in the international film circle. This is also a film describing no-man's land in Tibetan areas, but its camera is aimed at the Tibetan antelope protection team. Because of the special geographical location of Tibetan antelopes, the cashmere on their bodies is thin and soft, but has extremely high warmth. The scarf made of Tibetan antelope in foreign countries is called "Shatush", which means "the king of cashmere". Known as the "ring shawl", the price of a piece is comparable to gold, and it can fetch thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars on the black market. Under the temptation of huge interests, poachers emerge in an endless stream. The members of the Tibetan antelope protection team run around in order to prevent the Tibetan antelopes from being driven out and slaughtered, but they are still no match for the harsh natural environment that may appear at all times and the presence of poaching teams. The cold guns cast from behind are not a few players who die every year. There is a long shot at the end of the film. The moment when the quicksand engulfs the team members is shot in real location, but in just a few minutes, the camera is on the quicksand, starting from the moment when the foot stumbles, not over the legs, not over the waist, not over the neck, until it is not over the top of the head, and finally Return to a dead silence that devours life and death, as if nothing had happened. As for the team member, I watched him struggle hard at first to escape, but fell deeper and deeper; he roared unwillingly, but to no avail, and finally gave up his struggle and watched the quicksand cover his face. In the scenes that seem to have no emotion, I can feel his intense despair, a despair that knows he is dying but is helpless. And their captain, who had fought with hunters for a lifetime, in order to protect the reporters who came to the Tibetan area for interviews, and in order to stick to his bottom line, refused to be bought by the poaching chief and died tragically under the shotgun. These characters are the epitome of the sacrificed Sonam Daje and Zaba Dorje. Fortunately, the Chinese government finally saw these killings and sacrifices in 1994, and set up wild Tibetan antelope nature reserves in places such as Hoh Xil and Qiangtang, bringing peace to this no-man's land that has become a land of blood and fire.
After the release of "Kekexili", this film, which is known for its coldness, cruelty and cleanliness, has won many awards at home and abroad, including the Golden Horse Award. And the beautiful girl Hoh Xil is also famous overseas because of this movie. Today, it is still a vast and uninhabited land, but it has become a paradise for wild animals such as Tibetan antelope, Tibetan wild ass, wild yak, etc., and has regained its former vitality and vitality. Presumably the team members who have already sacrificed saw such a scene in the sky, they should be happy here too.
