Hello everyone, I'm the Picker.
On December 10, 2021, a love movie "We Once Loved Each Other" was quietly released in the mainland.
Why say "quietly", just look at the lineup.
The film is starring Chen Bailin and Guo Caijie, and starring Jiang Chao, Jackie Chan, Xie Tingfeng, Yingda, Yingzhuang, Wu Qixian, Jin Chi, Wang Hailin, Zhou Hui, Gong Yue and others.
Such a big battle, but without seeing the overwhelming publicity, is not unusual.
Back in January 2018, Jackie Chan's son Fang Zuming posted online that his first film, "Beijing, Nine to Five", was successful.
After four years, the "drug addict" turned into a big director.
Don't feel strange, after all, he also starred in Jackie Chan's "Railway Flying Tiger" before, and there were many scenes. But as a bad artist, can the works he directed be released in the mainland?
The film was originally scheduled to be released on December 24, 2020, but later changed the file to March 12, 2021 and renamed "Beijing Love Illustrated", I don't know if it is the reason for the impact of the epidemic.
Up to this time, the director column in the film introduction is still "Fang Zu Name".
On November 24, 2021, the film once again released a final trailer and poster, renamed "We Who Once Loved Each Other" and announced that it would land in mainland theaters on December 17.
Unexpectedly, the film was raised to December 10.
Also changing, there is the name of the director on the propaganda poster, from Fang Zu's name to Zhang Xiaolei, in some related promotional materials on the Internet, "Fang Zu Name" completely disappeared.
Why does the name "Fangzu Name" disappear? Why has a film changed its name and withdrawn many times? Why is the road to the release of the film so bumpy?
The answer is self-evident.
On August 14, 2014, Fang Zuming was arrested on suspicion of drug abuse and sentenced to six months in prison, along with Ke Zhendong, who was labeled a "bad artist."
Even with Jackie Chan as his backing, he has also filmed film and television works after his release from prison, but Fang Zuming obviously cannot continue to develop his acting career in the mainland, and the audience does not buy it.
In June this year, Fang Zuming and Ke Zhendong once again apologized for their wrongdoing, but in fact they were hippie smiling faces and insincere.
Netizens angrily rebuked the two "don't be a demon again", but also sighed:
Those anti-drug police who risk their lives to fight drug lords, if they see stars who have used drugs and then come back to be infinitely beautiful, how will they feel in their hearts?
disappointed? Or anger? Or, chills?
Someone on the Internet has asked: What is it like to be a family member of an anti-narcotics policeman?
There are very few answers to this question, but if you read it carefully, every answer, every story, and the helplessness of every small family, you can't help but cry.
Someone answered anonymously and implored the questioner to turn off the question after satisfying curiosity.
In fact, on the Internet, there are many more such descriptions. The anti-narcotics police are anonymous and dare not share their lives and families on social networks like ordinary people.
They are often hated and retaliated against if their identities are revealed, threatening hundreds of thousands or even millions of people to buy their heads.
Liu He, the "pioneer of anti-narcotics in Liangshan", once encountered such a "reward", and the prisoner's family and "relatives and friends" intimidated each other and bid 300,000 yuan to ask Liu he to "land on the ground".
When a drug enforcement officer went out, he was recognized by his daughter and called his father, and three days later the whole family was wiped out. Some policemen can only tell their daughters: "If you see daddy on the road, I won't call you, and you won't call me." ”
According to statistics, nearly 400 anti-narcotics police officers in China die in the line of duty every year.
The number of people killed by the anti-narcotics police each year is 4.9 times that of the general police, and the injury rate is as high as 10 times. Can you imagine? This means that on average, one anti-narcotics police officer leaves us every day.
Before death, he did not dare to show his face and travel with his family; after death, he could not erect monuments or place photos. Some anti-drug policemen have been retired for many years and have gone away to hide their names in other places, but they are still found to take revenge.
This is the drug enforcement police, just like the sentence in the movie "Operation Mekong": "The reason why you can't see the darkness is because countless brave people have blocked the darkness where you can't see it." ”
However, the anti-drug police risk their lives to carry the weight forward, and some celebrities claim that the pressure is too high, and they excuse their drug use for various reasons.
Some people make mistakes more than once, and some people still want to come back all the time, saying "I hope everyone will give you another chance", I would like to ask, give you a chance, can the sacrificial anti-drug police be resurrected?
What is even more infuriating is that some fans, who say that "everyone will make mistakes" excuses them, for them to fight for the opportunity to come back, let them ask, give them a chance, who gives the anti-drug police a chance to be reborn?
The public gives drug-addicted artists the opportunity to reform themselves and become people again, but it is by no means to let them become stars and artists again, because they are not worthy!
Every penny that drug addicts spend on drugs is a bullet on the anti-drug police!
We are not qualified to choose to forgive and tolerate those drug addicts for the anti-drug police, and the sacrifice and sacrifice of the anti-drug police must be meaningful! We can't let our heroes shed blood and tears!
Write at the end:
It is worth mentioning that although "We Who Once Loved Each Other" has not yet opened a score, the evaluation on Douban is surprisingly consistent, and many people have given a one-star bad rating due to the quality of the film.
Some netizens even commented, "The whole staff is stupid to the extreme, and it can't even be called a "work.". The so-called "three like movies" - such as a man on the back, like a needle felt, like a fish in the throat! ”
In the 8 days of release, the box office is only 33 million, it seems that even if there are big coffee cameos such as Jackie Chan, Nicholas Tse, and Yingda, even if it is art ethics aside, it must be the strength of the director and screenwriter.
