Motivation for being named "love"

Simply put, the director has a strong desire to create a film that escapes the shadow of television.

The adaptation of popular TV dramas into movies is a Japanese habit. The popularity of television, however, often succeeds in attracting viewers because of its strong and unique style. For example, Zhou Xingchi's TV series often have jingles such as "drinking tea and eating a bag", and the audience also expects the same jingle to satisfy their wishes when watching his movies.

Suspect X's dedicated TV drama detective Jia Liluo is the representative of characteristic TV dramas. The classic features are: 1) Signature laughter, 2) Deep thinking mode, 3) Unraveling guitar.

In the movie, each of the three features appeared once, the signature laughter appeared on the alibi, the deep-thinking mode met with Shishen in Yukawa, and the puzzle-solving guitar only appeared at the end of the film. Experiments and Yukawa-style theories There are only the initial big machine experiments for TV fans to relive the attraction of the first episode and the interesting plot of the Uchikai being questioned speechlessly. The whole movie has almost exhausted its original features, so? What else is nice?

The protagonists of this film are not Yukawa and Uchikai, but the genius mathematician Tetsuya Ishigami. The film is about two geniuses who understand love. The two have the same characteristics, they are extremely smart, and they are only addicted to their interests. However, after graduating from college, they each take a different path.

With the mentality of meeting an old friend, Yukawa visited Shishen Tetsuya. At first, he did not regard his old friend as a suspect, because Shishen had no motive for killing: "If it was Shishen, he would not kill, he would use a better method to deal with it. "Until Shishen Tetsuya said: "Since graduating from university, your appearance has not changed, I really envy you." He had a motive for murder, an act named "love".

In a broad sense, Yukawa has love for Shishen, which belongs to friendship and love for cherishing talents. Before they climbed the mountain, Yuchuan's reasoning was inseparable. In the cabin, Yuchuan said that because they were friends, he didn't tell the police what he really wanted.

Shishen's face was cold: "Even if the truth is revealed, no one will be happy." Probably many people thought that Shishen took Yukawa up the mountain, intending to use ice and snow to kill people and bury the truth. He came back to save Yuchuan because of the words "we are friends" that moved him. .

In fact, Shishen never regarded Yukawa as a friend. Shishen looked at the ceiling and only thought about the four-color problem. In his world, mathematics was everything. The reason why he didn't take the opportunity to remove Yuchuan was because "when the police found the body, the case was already closed." Yuchuan's life and death had no effect on the whole case, and he could not make the police delay the decision.

Stone God's love is undoubtedly distorted. He is not good at dealing with such feelings, so he makes a series of actions, which not only does not benefit him, but also tortures the mother and daughter. As for Yukawa, does he not understand love or is he pretending to be ignorant? Probably only I know. Facing Neihai's concern, he was numb; witnessing Shishen being taken into custody, he was numb. The film ends with the search team finding a body on the seabed, telling the audience that Yukawa's inference was correct, but did not reveal Yukawa's view of love.

Perhaps, this is the real mystery of the movie worth exploring. Deliberately taking the risk of putting aside all the existing features and bringing box office and criticism to the movie, if only the original good factors are reproduced, it will easily become a protracted TV series like the HERO movie version after satisfying the public. The director got rid of the shadow of the TV series, removed the inherent problems of the previous TV's entry into the film, and made the dedication of the suspect X: "Well! It's really a movie!" I thought.
