"The Wandering Earth 2" broke 3.4 billion at the box office, and Wu Jing's "falling in love" scene is really not so important?

The Spring Festival film market in 2023 "Kill crazy!" ”

After 18 days of its launch, the box office exceeded 3.4 billion, and the data of "The Wandering Earth 2" has soared all the way, quite a contrarian trend.

As the two leading actors of this film, Wu Jing and Andy Lau have also earned enough eyeballs and popularity.

But what you don't know is that there is still a tacit understanding and relationship between the two of them.

On the evening of February 7, Wu Jing's wife Xie Nan posted a set of photos on her social account, which attracted the attention of fans.

In the photo, Wu Jing's two sons and daughters took a happy photo with Andy Lau.

Hua Zi stood in the C position the whole time, and was still next to Xie Nan, in order to match the height of the other party, he squatted down slightly, and hugged each other very gentlemanly, which seemed particularly amiable.

Could it be that they have an unknown relationship?

It turned out that Xie Nan was Andy Lau's super fangirl, and Wu Jing also helped his beloved wife successfully chase stars this time, fulfilled his wife's wishes, and smiled on his face.

And Xie Nan was also excited to be in the same frame with Hua Zi, and also posted: "Drop a few road show photos, PS: Boss Wu is so cool because he interrupted him to eat sandwiches."

However, Wu Jing and Hua Zi, who have such a harmonious relationship outside the play, because they are both starring in "The Wandering Earth 2", their acting skills are compared by the audience.

After watching "The Wandering Earth 2", some people said that Wu Jing's performance can only be regarded as stable and steady, there are no highlights, and there is no impressive scene between Andy Lau and Sha Yi!

Some people say that Liu Peiqiang's emotional line is a bit redundant and boring and can be removed.

Some people say, is Wu Jing an acting school or an idol school? The idol school can't see it, and the acting skills can't see the excellent performance, why do so many people like him?

So, in "The Wandering Earth 2", a domestic epic sci-fi blockbuster with extremely high popularity and great stamina, is Wu Jing's role really not so important?

Is Liu Peiqiang's character's emotional drama a surprise or a failure? Sister Loulan Entertainment discussed one or two with everyone.

Liu Peiqiang's story

Liu Peiqiang, played by Wu Jing, has a complete three-dimensional character growth history.

When he was young, he entered the Ark International Space Station to work under the leadership of his master Zhang Peng.

From worshipping his parents to bravely pursuing love after meeting his favorite girl, Han Duoduo, he is full of courage and fearlessness, and a little cute and humorous boyhood.

To be honest, it was really a challenge to let a 50-year-old actor play a young man, but Wu Jing did a good job.

Later, when the space station was attacked, Liu Peiqiang and Han Duoduo, two people who had experienced life and death together, tied the knot and gave birth to Liu Qi, a family of three, and they were happy.

But unexpectedly, the earth crisis happened again, and at the same time, his beloved wife Han Duoduo suffered from cancer due to radiation many years ago and was dying.

After accompanying his wife, fulfilling her dying wish to return to Shanghai and take another look at her hometown, the death of his beloved wife allowed Liu Peiqiang to truly grow into a husband, father and son-in-law with bonds and great love.

In order to win two dungeon entry places, protect his family, and protect the earth, Liu Peiqiang had to fight again.

But in the face of the intimidation and provocation of MOSS, the control system of the 550W manned orbital space station, Liu Peiqiang was so angry that he cursed.

But realizing the safety of his family, he immediately apologized, and the sharpness in his eyes turned into an adult's compromise.

Adults are all weak and fettered, no matter how sharp the momentum, no matter how angry the flame burns, they will also temporarily choose to forbear and compromise because of the love, responsibility and protection for their families.

I have to say that in this scene, Wu Jing's performance is still remarkable, and he handles Liu Peiqiang's character arc very three-dimensional and vivid.

It not only shows Liu Peiqiang's spirit in his youth, but also shows his responsibility and maturity in adulthood.

It also shows his sincere, deep and unforgettable love for his lover and children, which gives this character an emotion, thickness, and realism.

Therefore, in terms of the completeness and success of acting skills and character story lines, Wu Jing is in line with expectations and qualified performance.

Was he a surprise or a failure

Let's take a look at whether Liu Peiqiang's role is redundant, and whether this role is a surprise or a failure.

In fact, the existence of this part of the play has four functions.

First, make up for the shortcomings of the first role.

In the first part of "The Wandering Earth", Liu Qi has a deep misunderstanding of his father Liu Peiqiang, and everyone also feels that although he is a hero, he is too indifferent to his son and family.

Also, Who is his wife? What touching stories are there between them?

Why did Liu Peiqiang leave his son behind and let his father-in-law raise a son for him in the dungeon?

These have left the audience with space for reverie, and also caused everyone to have various conjectures and doubts.

But in "The Wandering Earth 2", Liu Peiqiang fell in love, got married and had children, and went out again for his family, giving these questions a complete answer, making up for the regrets of the previous work, and also making this character more grounded and the story line more complete.

Second, from the perspective of human nature, make the characters more real

It is true that everyone worships and admires heroes.

But from the perspective of personal heroism, crazy sensationalism, watching too much will not only the audience be tired and disgusted, but also produce the feeling that the characters are divorced from reality and do not eat the world's fireworks.

Liu Peiqiang is an aviation hero who sacrifices himself for great love, sacrifices his family, and bravely undertakes great missions and responsibilities.

But he is also a husband, father and son-in-law with flesh and blood, great love and small love.

No one is born a hero, no hero can get rid of the relatives who have been entangled with him all his life, and no hero can not eat the world's fireworks, no seven emotions and six desires.

Therefore, heroes are certainly worthy of respect, admiration, and our appreciation and praise.

However, ordinary heroes born in the mortal world, because small love extends to big love, can make the character image of aviation heroes more three-dimensional, vivid and real, so as to fully resonate with the public and deeply touch the hearts of the audience.

In particular, when Liu Peiqiang said goodbye to his son, Wu Jing tried to put on a smile and twitching shoulders.

All of them show the tear-jerking fatherly love and nostalgia for his son behind Liu Peiqiang, a hero, and also let us see the struggle, transformation and growth of ordinary heroes.

Third, highlight the greatness of the hero in the subtleties

The hero's story is not only that he is facing a crisis, he is righteous and brave to save the earth and save mankind, which shows his greatness.

Behind their tragic and great behaviors, those sacrifices, those helplessness, those sacrifices, those sacrifices, are even more touching.

Why does Han Duoduo get cancer? Why did Liu Peiqiang's small family break up, and his relatives were separated from each other, and it was difficult to reunite?

This scene just explains that after the mountain moving plan, those astronauts who had made great contributions died at a young age due to cancer caused by radiation.

This is the sacrifice and tragic price paid behind the scenes of the heroes.

So many people are hungry and full due to the lack of materials due to the crisis of the earth; So many people have been homeless and even destroyed by the earth crisis; So many people, secluded in the dungeon, see no hope of living in the endless darkness.

Even, in order to fight for a ticket to the dungeon, so many people have to make a difficult choice between accompanying their loved ones or protecting their loved ones.

These further highlight the helplessness, tenacity, struggle, and even deeper sacrifice and greatness of the hero.

Without them, more people would have experienced these pains, and without them, more people would have walked into death.

When sending his son into the dungeon, when receiving the distribution materials, Liu Peiqiang really felt the hardship of the people and was really worried about his relatives.

Therefore, he can only lead the way, without hesitation, and shoulder his own responsibilities and missions.

The reason for the hero to fight, the price paid by the hero, the meaning of the hero's sacrifice, and the sense of strength and depth of the character can be like a punch at the last moment, hitting the heart and breaking the defense.

Fourth, it serves as a buffer for the overall story

Wu Jing not only threw off the excessive personal heroism of the first part of "Wolf Warrior 2" and "The Wandering Earth" in this new film, but also performed the difference in previous roles.

Moreover, Liu Peiqiang's entire story line is light and humorous, but also tragic and heavy.

Eased the first and second half of the film, super shocking hardcore technology.

Let the overall plot rhythm of "The Wandering Earth 2" be ups and downs, relaxed and measured.

There are highs and lows; There is tension and relaxation; There are visual shocks, but also emotional touches; There are shocking scenes of industrial science and technology that explode, and there are also delicate displays of big love and small love.

It can not only steal the brilliance of other protagonists' story lines and make space, but also make each story line full and complete, with many highlights.

Therefore, from the perspective of these four points, Liu Peiqiang's scene is not a banal and boring paragraph, but a surprise of this film, which is a stroke of God.

Of course, this is not the words of the entertainment sister family, let's take a look at the evaluation of other audiences!

Some people say, "Many people spray Wu Jing for falling in love, I think this one is very good", he is the source of joy for this film, and there is quite a lot of laughter in the whole hall.

Some people said, "Wu Jing's emotional drama is very good, making the rhythm in front more relaxed, and also paving the way for the plot later." ”

Some people say,

"The bright line of the whole story is Wu Jing's emotional drama, and it also shows the background of the story through the emotional drama, from his small family to show the general situation at that time, the radiation caused cancer after the mountain moving plan, and the lack of materials so began to distribute materials and draw dungeon tickets. This part of the drama is very empty if it is only shown in the form of TV news. ”
