"The Wind Listener" is adapted from the Mai family's original novel "Dark Calculation", starring Liang Chaowei, Zhou Xun and others, a spy war legend about the hunting of enemies in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
After watching "The Wind Listener", the biggest feeling is "moving". For the sake of faith, Guo Xingzhong was willing to let his comrades stab; Zhang Xuening, the best intelligence officer of unit 701, restrained his personal hidden love, still sacrificed his life, and only left a number on the tombstone
For the sake of faith, He Bing came from a small place to Shanghai to beg for a living, self-destructed his eyes in order to catch the enemy, and grew into a best listener. The script has been carefully polished, and the plot has been layered in layers. Infectious, convincing, especially at the end of the point, through this side of the meeting to arrest people, there is a memorial service, the two pictures formed a sharp contrast, the two scenes switch freely, played a trick to five "Chongqing" senior agents please Jun into the urn in one fell swoop to destroy the enemy, powerful! It's also the best gift to comfort the hero.
The film combines the anti-enemy spy elements with the elements of literary films, which is why the film has a high score. As a spy war film, although it is lacking in the degree of suspense and intrigue in the spy war, through the subtle elements of hidden feelings, plus Liang Chao, Zhou Xun and other people's interpretation of the inner activities of the characters, every eye, every action is a drama, a fine product, is a very interesting spy war film.
First, the high-level enemy special group quietly set up a situation to test.
In the contest between Zhang Xuening and "Chongqing", in fact, dropping Morse code notes on the mahjong table is a kind of temptation, as a group of code names "Chongqing" are high
The fat aunt, one of the level agents, could not have made such a low-level mistake. It was Luo San'er who had hurriedly seen the old ghost's side when he was being hunted down, and although it was not very certain, it also made them suspicious. A game set up to test the old ghost. When the mahjong table loses to give money, clip in the money
With a small note of the Fowles code, this was obviously deliberately left by the temptation. And the old ghost's performance is too calm, perhaps she is too eager to find out who among these five people is the code name "Chongqing" inner ghost, and wants to find information in this piece of paper? Beyond the reaction of normal people, the five chongqing high-ranking enemy specials recognized her as a CCP agent and an old ghost.
Second, the brutal struggle on the hidden front.
The sound of ticking telegrams, hidden radio waves, accompanied by tense music, set off the cruel atmosphere of espionage without smoke. As Shen Jing, an agent of the 701 Deciphering Bureau, said to him, "If you solve a password incorrectly, you will lose more than just a human life." This also paved the way for future plots, and mishearing the code will also kill people, directly leading to the death of an excellent intelligence agent.
The battlefield without the smoke of war is more cruel, and there is no room for error. First of all, the intelligence analysis of 701 was wrong, thinking that the code name "Chongqing" was one person, but it did not expect that it was an enemy special group composed of 5 people. After testing Zhang Xuening, the "Chongqing" enemy special group issued an order after gathering intelligence from many sources: "The old ghost" was exposed and a quick battle was resolved. However, He Bing mistakenly heard the old ghost as Chongqing, because the old ghost and the two codes of Chongqing were very similar
It seems that He Bing misheard it, so that the old ghost Zhang Xuening missed the opportunity to withdraw from danger in advance. Surrounded by five high-ranking enemy agents, his hands were pinned down when he was killed, and he was stabbed five times in a row, and there was no room for resistance and fighting, which may be a more real and cruel scene compared to the anti-Japanese drama.
Third, the emotional line looming is very complicated, but it is very real.
The relationship between Zhang Xuening and Guo Xingzhong is very complicated and stoic. Perhaps out of the rationality of the intelligence personnel, none of them showed too much affection, but it was meaningful. For example, after Zhang Xuening took over as the old ghost, when he learned that Guo Xingzhong's new task was to approach the daughter of Jardine Grand Class, he instantly said whether he could terminate the task, but Guo Xingzhong replied affirmatively: You will not. She was stunned for a while, rational returned, smiled heartily, and Zhou Xun's free performance made Zhang Xuening's role more brilliant.
When Guo Xingzhong burned her personal file information after Zhang Xuening's sacrifice, this scene collapsed in tears, the loved ones could not be together, and even her photos could not be left after death, all the data turned into ashes, leaving only a code name, which was also the tragedy of the unknown soldiers on the secret front.
