"Big Time" is known as the first Hong Kong drama, I believe many people have seen it, coupled with the death of Lan Jieying's sister some time ago, many people have also revisited this series to remember Sister Lan. The reason why this drama is regarded as a divine drama is that the story is wonderful, the actors are powerful, and the ending is too tragic, basically the protagonists are dead. Another important reason is that it is said that every time "Big Time" is broadcast, the Hong Kong stock market falls sharply.
"Big Time" is also Liu Qingyun's famous work, which has been tepid before, and then began to jump into the film circle, growing into a movie emperor step by step, and over the years not only has his acting skills been praised, but also won the title of Mr. Liu, a grocery buyer. Many people know that Liu Qingyun acted in the stock-themed TV series "Big Time", but they did not know that he also acted in a stock movie "Stock Madness", Douban 7.6 points, is a co-production.
Released in 1994, Hong Kong director Li Guoguo directed "The Legend of the Paladin Sword", the lineup was co-starred by Pan Hong and Liu Qingyun, and a group of Shanghai burlesque actors joined in, jointly creating this slightly exaggerated realistic theme work, mainly about a period of stock speculation in Shanghai in the 90s.
Allie, played by Pan Hong, is a bus conductor, her husband works in the design institute, the family goes to the toilet with a mobile toilet, the husband travels to the straw paper to be careful, and sometimes steals the neighbor's water, although the day is poor, but the family is also happy.
However, since she helped others buy a warrant, she began to change, and then began to speculate in stocks, slowly became a big household, became a spokesperson for stock speculation, neighbors and colleagues all let her help herself to speculate in stocks. One after another, although the stock market has made money, but the family has problems, and the husband is not in harmony, the child is sick and no one cares.
Teacher Pan Hong has a very accurate grasp of the role of Ali, whether it is taking money to smash people on the bus, or the face is squeezed when queuing up to buy a warrant, or finally becoming a big household, the kind of sharp, spicy, and dashing are all vividly displayed. At the same time, Pan Hong is also one of the story creations of this film, it is said that she also bought some stocks to try it out, and had to praise the old drama bone.
Pan Hong became famous very early, won many awards at a young age, and her performances were often used as textbooks. The role of "Stock Crazy" Alone won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress, the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, the Golden Deer Award at the Changchun Film Festival, the Shanghai Film Critics Association Award, and so on. When she was young, Pan Hong was called a goddess-level figure, belonging to the elegant, quiet, and generous type, and now she is older and has become a professional household in Shanghai in film and television works.
Then there is The Hong Kong boss Arun, played by Liu Qingyun, who originally went to Shanghai to recover his girlfriend, and then speculated in stocks by the way, after all, people were stock gods in "Big Time" in 1992, and they were naturally invincible in the stock market. In the first half of the period, Liu Qingyun actually played soy sauce, did not play much, and finally persuaded Ali's husband to break out. The simple point is to say that you have no sense of belonging, and you are the one who should jump off the building. If this film is a tragedy in the end, I believe it should be remembered by more people, after all, "Big Time" is like this.
As for Liu Qingyun's girlfriend is Guo Jinen, who was once the five golden flowers of Jiahe Film Company, and has cooperated with Jackie Chan in "Flying Dragon Fierce General" and "Police Story Sequel", and Jet Li has cooperated in "Dragon Walking the World", the heroine May is her, teaching Jet Li to drive that section is more funny. After "Stock Madness", Guo Jin'en basically stopped acting in movies and switched to radio hosts.
Then Ali's husband is played by Wang Huaying, who portrays a traditional Shanghai man's kind of unconfidence and nest into the wood three points, seeing that his wife has made a lot of money on the stock market, not taking care of the family, his self-esteem can't stand it, using his friend's 200,000 decoration money to speculate in stocks, the result is all lost, helplessly decided to jump off the building and live lightly. Wang Huaying is also an old drama bone, and has won the Golden Eagle Award twice.
In the film, the three treasures who often rely on flickering and making a little difference are not small, and his actor is Wang Rugang, a national first-class actor, or a performance artist of the burlesque troupe, versatile, talking and singing, film and television music art is not a word, is a well-known comedy star in China. In the film, he often describes some foreign bosses as his cousins, cousins, cousins, etc., living by one mouth. For example, Arun gives him 100 to buy a warrant, she can find Ali for 60, and Allie can find another downline with 30 or 40. The most important thing is the final ending, he took the "cousin" and began to speculate, and the real prediction came true.
Allie's group of neighbors is also more interesting, three of them are specially arranged, a "grandmother", a "blind", a "dumb", in fact, they represent the shareholders, they do not understand anything, listening to the wind is rain, blindly following. At the beginning, I said that I lost myself, and finally I really lost everyone to find Allie, assuming that their money was finally lost, it would be difficult for Allie to move.
This film can be called a god film, the stock speculation boom of the sentient beings one by one ridicule, the theme is novel, the plot is undulating, the theme is profound, interpreting the values of the small people in that era. In fact, this film from 24 years ago is still applicable today, and the stock madness still exists.
