The story begins
Lao Jin (played by Huang Bo) is a boat boss who often takes his crew to the high seas to poach, he has a very high status in the eyes of a group of fishermen, and he is a master who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and is not afraid of the sky.
He didn't panic when he saw the coast guard, and even dared to come forward to confront him, such a character laid the groundwork for Lao Jin's next road to revenge.
Lao Jin's life suddenly turned in an unexpected direction.
He learns that his daughter Jin Lina (played by Zhou Yiyi), who is studying in Japan, and her boyfriend Li Miaomiao (played by Zhang Youhao) have disappeared together.
This rugged man who has been fighting the wind and waves at sea has made waves in his heart, and he and his ex-wife (played by Yan Ni) embark on a journey to Japan, with mixed emotions, worry, puzzlement, and even some annoyance.
At this moment, Lao Jin didn't realize the seriousness of his daughter's disappearance, but he thought it was a willful move by a young man, he regretted coming to his daughter, and he was still thinking about fishing work, which can also be seen that Lao Jin usually lacks care for his daughter, and he is in a different place in two countries, and there is little communication between father and daughter.
This scene profoundly depicts the multifaceted nature of Lao Jin's character, as well as his confusion and confusion in dealing with family responsibilities and dealing with the relationship between father and daughter.
As soon as the camera turned, Lao Jin found Li Miaomiao's registered residence, but he was received by a COS young man dressed as a Grim Reaper anime character, and he told Lao Jin that Li Miaomiao had not come back for a week, and Lao Jin decided to wait for the rabbit.
At this time, my daughter's best friend sent a photo.
After identification, Lao Jin could determine that the COS youth who gave him a smoke bomb was Li Miaomiao himself, and things began to be unusual, and a big arrest drama of chasing me and escaping began.
Just as the tension gradually heated up, the Metropolitan Police Department also sent news that shocked Lao Jin! Jin Lina has died.
The camera turned again, Lao Jin and his wife stood in the morgue blankly, and the father and daughter met in a way that was separated by yin and yang.
Lao Jin saw the body of his daughter, she had 17 knife wounds in her lower abdomen, like a hornet's nest stained with donated blood, although they were not fatal injuries, but indirect blood loss caused shock death, this is a relatively long process, Jin Lina experienced physical pain that non-human beings can bear before dying.
Faced with such a scene, Lao Jin's first reaction was to start vomiting, but he hurriedly subconsciously wiped off the filth that he vomited.
The first thought that popped into his mind was "Why should I throw up? She's my own daughter," and he hated that he had such a physical reaction, and deep down he was ashamed of his actions.
He felt that as a father, he should show more grief and sadness than physical discomfort.
This is the second important foreshadowing of the story, revealing Kim's inner conflict in the face of extreme tragedy, and the gap between his expectations of being a father and reality.
As the plot deepens, Lao Jin's road to revenge officially begins, and the murderer of his daughter, all clues point to Jin Lina's boyfriend Li Miaomiao.
One chases, one escapes!
The fog is slowly opened, and all the answers surface, a fateful sadomasochistic entanglement, and a crazy tear of the original family!
Lao Jin tried his best to avenge his daughter from beginning to end, which became the biggest joke in the whole story, full of sarcasm and ridicule, Lao Jin turned out to be the culprit, and it was he who caused this tragedy.
The timeline comes to the important puzzle section.
Lao Jin read his daughter's diary and learned that after he and his wife divorced, 8-year-old Jin Lina had not been happy since she lived with her father.
Lao Jin educates children to adopt an alternative high-pressure mode, Xiao Jin Lina has a high fever, he only cools down physically, even if it is serious, the child is not allowed to take medicine and needles, through this way to enhance physical fitness.
Because Lao Jin is with water all the year round, he also hopes that his daughter will learn to swim, but Xiao Jin Lina is naturally afraid of water, and learning to swim will make her feel afraid.
Ignoring this, Jin tied her with a rope and threw her into the deep water, which not only did not help to dispel the child's fear of water, but could have exacerbated the psychological trauma, and such an experience lasted almost her entire childhood, becoming an incurable scar in her life.
Lao Jin is adrift at sea, sometimes leaving his children alone in an empty house, and the frequent absence of his father makes little Jin Lina feel uneasy.
In such a living environment, Jin Lina found the only safe haven, that is, the wardrobe at home, a small space, but for her, it is like a warm embrace, which can temporarily soothe the soul.
Whenever she felt scared and lonely, little Jin Lina would hide in the closet, the smell of clothes seemed to give her an illusory sense of security, and she would wait there quietly until Lao Jin returned.
A tragic childhood requires a lifetime of healing, and that's true.
Jin Lina, who has lacked family affection since she was a child, chose to study in Japan, also in order to escape from the current situation of life and escape from her father's control.
Jin Lina completely hid her true self, and used a bottomless deliberate flattering way to exchange for the so-called "sense of security", she longed to be loved, and she didn't want to become a child who lost her "love" again.
And she also used the same method in her relationship with Li Miaomiao, so even if Li Miaomiao was essentially a perverted evil boy, she didn't care, and even chose to stab herself 17 times in order to save Li Miaomiao.
It's a pity that Jin Lina chose the wrong person, Li Miaomiao's indifference and departure made her completely desperate, Jin Lina dragged her bloody body back into the closet, and used the blood donation left in her body to draw the sun, and finally died slowly.
Until the moment of dying, Jin Lina did not call her father, and the daughter did not want to contact her father for help at all, because in her life, her father has never been her safe haven.
This story comes from Lao Huang's original film adaptation of the film "Wading through the Sea of Anger", which uses an intuitive perspective that breaks through the scale to explain to the audience the profound impact of the original family on personal growth and mental health.
The health, integrity and harmony of the family of origin are crucial to personal growth, and the extended level includes many factors such as values, behavior patterns, emotional responses, etc., which are not only related to a person's happiness and psychological growth, but also related to how they interact and connect with the world normally.
Through this film, I want to say to those parents: please stop loving your children in the way of "thinking you love your children", you think it's good, but for children, it's not necessarily good. Reflect on it.
