Relive Jet Li boy when self-improvement has a feeling

When I was a child, I really liked Jet Li's "Huang Feihong" series of movies, but I was more intoxicated by the fights and kills and the shaping of personal heroism during the period.

Recently, idle, I revisited Jet Li's "Boys Should Be Self-Reliant", in addition to enjoying the wonderful martial arts scenes, but also deeply infected by the content inside. This is perhaps the film with the richest artistic standard and connotation in the Wong Fei Hung series.

The background of this "Boy When Self-Reliance" is the Qing court, which is worried about internal and external troubles, at this time, foreign powers have fully invaded China, and land-cutting indemnities have become a norm. At this time, the Chinese was still in a period of ignorance that only the emperor was in the eyes and the gods were in the gods, and regarded foreigners and Western musical instruments, clocks, and even spotted dogs as monsters. Both the imperial court and the commoners regarded themselves as "heavenly emperors", but this era was gone forever, and what the Qing Dynasty was waiting for was nothing more than the destruction and crumbling of life.

For most of the people who joined the White Lotus Sect, they were blind, eager for the divine protective body and some simple ideas, one did not take into account the complex interest entanglement of the Qing court, and the other was to reject Western civilization in all directions, and for the top level of the White Lotus Sect, these are indifferent, as long as the myth of the "Divine Guardian Body" has always existed, there will be a steady stream of believers to join, and the top people can continue to draw benefits from it. This is also the reason why almost all religions are reluctant to renovate themselves. And as a science, it is about constantly making real progress in self-denial. In this sense, there is no essential difference between the imperial power that is high above and the White Lotus Sect in the opposition. The West, on the other hand, developed the Industrial Revolution on the basis of the Renaissance and created its own strong ships and cannons, opening the door of the Qing Dynasty.

Huang Feihong and Na Lan Rong are the world's best martial arts masters in the movie, if there is no foreign gun and cannon, even a foreigner cannot defeat his character setting in the movie. In reality, it is unknown how many people intervened and confronted the foreigners who all nodded their heads.

The age of the hero is destined to be replaced by the era of another hero, Sun Yat-sen seems to be weak, and medicine itself, although it can save a few Chinese, cannot save the whole of China. The destruction of the dynasty became an exploration and inevitability of that era, but the indifference of the people would make this exploration have more blood and sacrifice, and although the old man who played the song had the idea of saving the country and enlightening the country, this idea was like his powerless chanting that could not impress others.

Compared with Huang Feihong's confusion and helplessness, Nalan Yuanshu's personality is very complicated, when he was a child, he observed this character, but he just felt that he was like a perverse lackey, and today I found that he still had that simple kindness in his heart, but he was oppressed by his own role and the foolishness of the court, otherwise he had a reason not to take in those children. He seems to have no intention of winning with Huang Feihong, and as a court official he has an open-minded heart, but his foolish loyalty makes him have to be narrow-minded, and eventually dies at the hands of Huang Feihong.

About the Chinese and Western medicine between Director Xu Ke also belongs to his own thinking, although Huang Feihong is skilled in medicine, but in the face of foreign Western medicine, Huang Feihong obviously has no right to speak, although there is Sun Yat-sen as a translator, but for people in Western medicine, this translation is also in the clouds and fog, and through acupuncture points to suppress the knee jump reflex can also be regarded as winning back some thin aspects for the medicine of the motherland. The plot of acupuncture anesthesia is based on the trend of acupuncture anesthesia in the 1970s, and director Xu Ke did not directly answer the future of Traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine and even China. Instead, the camera is pointed at a group of children who have received a Western-style education but have experienced ups and downs, but they are full of ignorance and yearning for the future.
