There are more and more domestic police and bandit dramas, especially the adaptation of real major cases, which are more enjoyable, such as "Anti-Riot" starring Wu Yanzu and Wang Qianyuan last year.
Recently, another police film based on a real and major case has begun filming, and the protagonist is a Class A wanted criminal of the Ministry of Public Security who has committed a lot of crimes: Zhou Kehua.
On August 14, 2012, Zhou Kehua, the maker of the Su Yuxiang series of gun robberies and murders that shocked the country for eight years, was killed on the spot by the police in Chongqing; in May 2021, the movie "Chinese Criminal Police" based on the story of the case was quietly launched on the streets of Sanhui Town, Chongqing.
The gangster Zhou Kehua caused a national sensation in that year, and in his eight years, he crossed many provinces and cities, committed many crimes, killed 11 people, and caused several injuries, cruel means, hidden deeply, and made people think about it very carefully.
In order to arrest Zhou Kehua, the amount of rewards offered by the police in many places has reached a total of 5.4 million yuan.
(At that time, the Changsha Municipal Public Security Bureau alone offered a reward of 300,000 yuan)

In recent years, there have been more and more domestic police films adapted from real cases, which have been artistically adapted and visualized, showing the complexity and darkness of human nature from different perspectives, because they come from reality, so the audience can receive a higher degree of authenticity and reduction, so as to examine good and evil, and trigger multiple thinking.
There are many excellent films based on real cases, and "Blind Well", adapted from the 1998 case of three super large mining tunnel fraud and murder gangs, has a high reputation, and Wang Baoqiang won awards for this film. Andy Lau and Wang Qianyuan starred in "Rescue Mr. Wu", which was adapted from the kidnapping case of actor Wu Ruofu in 2004, and received great attention when it was released.
Speaking of "China Criminal Police" based on the Zhou Kehua case, it is inevitable to think of the police film "Crackdown" released last year. The film is based on Zhang Jun, China's first gangster, and tells the story of the criminal group headed by Zhang Jun who committed consecutive crimes and eventually was arrested.
The prototype of Zhang Falcon played by Wu Yanzu in "Crackdown" is the murderer Zhang Jun, and the major cases such as "Friendship Store Robbery", "Pucheng Bank Robbery", and "Telecom Sub-bureau Robbery" in the film are all supported by real events.
"Crackdown" won box office success last year with its large-scale theme and high-burning plot, as well as the wonderful performances of actors such as Wu Yanzu and Wang Qianyuan, and has also officially announced that it will shoot "Crackdown 2".
What kind of perspective will "Chinese Criminal Police" be presented?
Judging from the current reuters photos, the currently identified actors are Li Xian, Yuan Hong, You Yongzhi, etc., and there are also Wang Jingchun, Zhu Yawen, Bai Jingting, Chen Shu and others rumored on the Internet.
And everyone's most curious thing is: who plays Zhou Kehua?
Many netizens have said that if Wang Jingchun really plays Zhou Kehua, it will be absolute!
Wang Jingchun's acting skills have been repeatedly proven, he won the Best Actor Award at the Tokyo International Film Festival in 2013 for the film "Police Diary", and in 2019 he won the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor at the 69th Berlin International Film Festival and the Best Actor Award at the 32nd Golden Rooster Awards of Chinese Film.
Wang Jingchun, who won the prize and got the soft hand, also has a label - police professional household.
He has played police roles with different functions in many film and television works such as "Crazy Rose", "LOVE", "Police Diary", "I Am a Witness", "The Hidden Corner" and many other film and television works, whether it is a film policeman, an anti-pickpocketing police, a household registration police, an anti-drug police or a public security bureau chief, Wang Jingchun has acted over and over again, and the image of the police has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Especially in the annual web drama "The Hidden Corner", which was both topical and word-of-mouth last year, Wang Jingchun, who once again played the policeman, with superb acting skills, perfectly interpreted an old policeman who was about to retire but still wanted to find out the truth, and received countless praises.
When participating in the film "Shadow" directed by Zhang Yimou, Wang Jingchun said that he very much wanted to have more new breakthroughs from the role.
At that time, he mentioned that he hoped to break the audience's impression of his decency, so when playing the minister Lu Yan in "Shadow", Wang Jingchun made a lot of adjustments in language expression and emotional communication, showing the image of a courtier who speculated on the holy will, creating a completely different character from his usual interpretation.
In an interview, Wang Jingchun emphasized that it is probably because of Aquarius, so he always wants to try new things, and he really wants to play a killer, or the kind of perverted killer.
This time, Zhou Kehua in "Chinese Criminal Police" can undoubtedly meet Wang Jingchun's wish to break through, and the image of the policeman in the past is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so everyone will also look forward to what Wang Jingchun will look like to play the gangster Zhou Kehua.
With his acting skills, what kind of painting style will it be to shape Zhou Kehua's viciousness and cunning? Just thinking about it is challenging.
"Chinese Criminal Police" has been launched, but the exact information revealed is not much, but it is already very eye-catching from the perspective of the exposed cast.
Li Xian and Bai Jingting are all small students who have successfully transformed at the moment, whether it is appearance, figure or acting skills, they are more eye-catching among the young generation of actors, and the shape in Li's current film in Reuters photos is refreshing and green, and should be the role of playing a young policeman. Judging from the comments of netizens, the cast of actors generally expressed a sense of expectation.
It is worth mentioning that the director of this film is Xin Yukun, his film style is ling, good at realistic style of social stories, representative works are "Labyrinth of Hearts" and "Bursting Silence", the scores on Douban are 8.7 points and 8.3 points, respectively.
At that time, the movie "Labyrinth of Hearts" written and directed by Xin Yukun cost only 1.7 million yuan, all the actors were unknown, and the overall salary was only 200,000, and it took 26 days to shoot the whole movie.
But it is such a low-budget small-scale film that swept the major awards after its release and became unanimously selected by the audience - the best Chinese film of 2015!
Therefore, director Xin Yukun's filming of police films is indispensable, and if the script of "Chinese Criminal Police" can keep up, this film is indeed worth looking forward to.
Zhou Kehua's case was made into a movie, which should be another "Riot Eradication", do you want to watch it?
