"There was once a sincere love placed in front of me that I did not cherish. When I lost, I regretted it, and there was nothing more painful in the world than this. ——" Journey to the West
It is said that this classic line was conceived by Zhou Xingchi according to his own emotional experience when he was on the bus. As we all know, before Zhou Xingchi made a relationship with Zhu Yin in the filming of "Journey to the West", that "former feeling" belonged to his first love object Luo Huijuan.
Many people think that this passage is for Zhu Yin to hear, but in my opinion, this passage should be more to Luo Huijuan.
Stephen Chow is a person who is recognized as "seeing the film as life", but in all his classic comedy films, he constantly depicts the most ideal love in his heart in the play, which is undoubtedly an extreme performance.
Because in his real life, it seems that he has not been able to obtain the pure love in his mind.
Whether it was Luo Huijuan, who he had long forgotten, or Zhu Yin and Mo Wenwei, even Yu Wenfeng, who finally became an enemy, he could not give the love that Zhou Xingchi wanted.
Reality cannot be satisfied, so it can only be attached to the movie. And this has also become one of the bases for many people to think that Zhou Xingchi does not understand love.
In an interview, the reporter asked: "Why do you always arrange for the characters in the play to get love when they are down?" ”
Zhou Xingchi's answer makes people think deeply: "Because in the most tragic time, love is more important." ”
At the same time, he also added: "Love once saved me and helped me find my ideals." ”
Zhou Xingchi once expressed that his love experienced life and death, but he would not tell the specific experience.
We don't know what kind of tragic love he experienced, but from his films, we may be able to spy one or two.
But I agree with Stephen Chow's view of love, why do you say so?
The ancients often used words such as "respecting each other as guests" and "raising eyebrows" to describe the state of getting along between partners, believing that this is the best way to look at love.
But in real life, the most common sentence we hear is: Husband and wife are originally the same forest birds, and they fly separately when the big trouble comes.
This sentence may sound quite selfish, but in fact, couples who have not "suffered together" are really difficult to determine whether they can "work together" when they encounter setbacks in life.
In today's era, many people can "share happiness" with you, but few people are willing to "share suffering" with you.
Therefore, the meaning expressed by Zhou Xingchi's concept of love, in my understanding, is: although it is wonderful to raise eyebrows together, it is true love to be together.
And the reason why I think in zhou Xingchi's several relationships, his most memorable is Luo Huijuan, not only because she is Zhou Xingchi's first love, but also because he was willing to suffer with him when he first debuted.
The person who can get along with you is the one who can accompany you throughout your life.
Raising eyebrows together is a beautiful imagination, and foaming together is the real life full of fireworks.
Zhou Xingchi once said something like this: "The principle of love is usually life and death, joy is short-lived, and pain is eternal." ”
In his opinion, the most attractive thing about the love story lies in its pain, this kind of doom.
What we understand as a "plain and happy life" has unforgettable experiences behind it, but what we see is only the result.
Two people who are bland from the beginning often find it difficult to find touching and fierce love in each other.
Only those who have experienced great winds and waves can truly appreciate the hard-won "plain" and will cherish and love each other.
This is where I agree with Stephen Chow's view of love.
"All hell breaks loose" may just be a description of Zhou Xingchi's love story, but it is not excluded that he himself has experienced such love.
There is no shackle in his love such as marriage and other practical problems, and this is naturally where Zhou Xingchi is extreme.
Experiencing love is a person's necessary growth, and experiencing tragic love is the key to two people's understanding of love.
Some people say that Zhou Xingchi "abandoned" several loved ones, but some people say that Zhou Xingchi has been "sorry" all his life.
However, he has also expressed his own views on this: "The moving place of love is that it lies in the unusual regrets." ”
Happiness is naturally part of love, but it also contains pain, helplessness and regret.
The meaning of love lies in the feeling, and in the end it can not be together, of course, the ending together is more perfect.
Zhou Xingchi said: "The highest state of love is a kind of regret, and we can only leave these dramatic helplessness, regrets, and regrets in the story." ”
If we leave aside the marriage, then the meaning of love may be as Stephen Chow said: feelings.
Everyone has their own ideal love, but even "ten thousand years" is difficult to express the pursuit of ideal love.
However, the ideal is only a touch of something, and in real life, the "present" is the most important.
Ten thousand years is too long, and the feeling of this moment is the most important.
How exactly does a relationship have to end? Perhaps none of us can give an accurate answer.
But at least in the face of love, we can be like Miss Duan in "Journey to the West": big love and hate, dare to love and dare to hate.
Why can we only feel this dare to love and hate in Stephen Chow's movie?
Love wholeheartedly without reservation, hate recklessly and simply. Such real and free-spirited people are too few in real life.
In fact, we all understand that this kind of freeness is full of charm and appeal, but it is difficult to do it ourselves.
It's not that we don't know how to let go, it's that we're too reluctant.
At the time of the release of "The Mermaid", several people who had had emotional experiences with Zhou Xingchi had their own belongings, but he was the only one with gray hair and alone.
Although the theme song of "Journey to the West" follows the theme song of "Journey to the West", "Love of a Lifetime", Zhou Xingchi modified the lyrics, and there is a sentence that is endlessly evocative:
"Once upon a time, until now, love is still there."
—end—
