I hope Chinese people can understand Chinese films with their own history that are very close to them.
After watching "Wolf Warriors 2", I suddenly remembered "The True Color of Heroes 3 Song of the Sunset" that I watched a long time ago. The two movies have similar plot settings. There is a country with a civil war, and a local child was taken in. In the end, only a helicopter was launched. The plane escaped, but the intentions were quite different. Compared with the strong heroic color and high-pitched patriotic theme in Wolf Warrior 2, Hero 3 is about the historical background of the exclusion of Chinese in Southeast Asia before 78 years (funny, the Viet Cong was in power and the Chinese were excluded, and the Indonesian gcd was not in power and also excluded the Chinese) Several generations of Vietnamese overseas Chinese in Saigon have lived on other people's land, but they are left with nothing in an instant. During the Cultural Revolution, the mainland could not go back. The overseas Chinese could only float from Saigon to Hong Kong by wooden boats. What a fool. At the end, when the plane took off, Chow Yun-fat held the dead Anita Mui in his arms, and looked down at the ants-like chaotic and panic-stricken refugees in the sunset, it was simply a tragedy of heroism. I didn't understand this movie at all when I was a child, but after all, I also played in Beihai Overseas Chinese Port since I was a child. Which movie is closer to reality? If Wolf Warrior 2 is worth 3 billion, Tsui Hark's Hero 3 is worth 6 billion?
It’s amazing to travel with the movie. It turns out that my travel experience in Ho Chi Minh City has all been seen in “The True Color of Heroes 3 Sunset Song” that I watched when I was a child: flower market, embankment market, Viet Cong tank, ancestral hall, church, resident singer of the Chinese Association , Even chatting up Vietnamese beauties..., the native Saigon overseas Chinese Tsui Hark combined the above elements into this classic "Saigon Life and Death", the history of China's neighboring countries is recorded by a Chinese, which is what the Chinese have done for thousands of years. thing.
