The new film "I Am a Policeman" has been exclusively broadcast on iQiyi and has topped the popular list for 6 consecutive days. The cumulative number of viewers has exceeded 1.4 million.
Brother Pi also recently watched the film in its entirety, and now he will share his viewing experience with you for your reference.
1. The most intuitive feeling is that it is real and direct
The "I Am a Police" series of movies is based on the real deeds of outstanding police officers and heroic models. Objectively speaking, this series brings Propaganda in nature.
But the more this kind of movie is, the harder it is to make it.
On the one hand, the threshold for watching the film should not be too high, and it should be down-to-earth enough so that everyone can watch it; on the other hand, it also needs to use real case backgrounds to stimulate the audience's response to these films with abundant emotions. The real touching of heroes and models can be simply summed up to be appreciated by both refined and popular tastes.
As the first work in the "I Am a Police" series, "Thousand Miles to Chase" is very well done. I watched the nearly 90-minute movie in one sitting. The most intuitive feeling is that it is real. direct.
There are not so many twists and turns in the whole film. It goes straight to the theme from the beginning and uses a case to establish a character.
In the film, Zhu Zhilong, known as the "Fugitive Detective", is a banner of the criminal investigation team, but a murder case that has been buried in dust for 18 years has made it difficult for him to let go.
Later, a highly suspicious rape case implicated the children involved, and the truth of the case gradually emerged. With a weak clue, Zhu Zhilong led his colleagues to follow the clues and overcome numerous difficulties, and finally arrested the real murderer who had been absconding for 18 years.
The investigative methods used by Zhu Zhilong in the film and the battle of wits and courage with the suspects are very real. This is because the protagonist of the film is based on Zhu Zhenlong, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of Jixi City, and the story of the film is based on his real life. The entire film was shot in Jixi City. A large number of front-line staff from the Jixi Public Security System participated in the filming, so it has that real power.
2. There is no well-known actor in the film
The actor Ai Dong who plays Zhu Zhilong in the film also participated in "Operation Icebreaker".
Ai Dong behaved calmly and restrained in the film. He also made great efforts in shaping the character of Zhu Zhilong, showing us a flesh-and-blood character from multiple angles.
When facing suspects, Zhu Zhilong showed no mercy. He used his "aggressive" momentum to force out the truth and used his fierce skills to subdue his opponents.
There are two scenes in the film that demonstrate this tough guy trait. One is the scene where the protagonist interrogates the suspect’s lover. Ai Dong’s explosive lines are shocking.
This scene is the final scene of chasing the murderer. Ai Dong's agility and calmness when confronting the suspect left a deep impression on people.
However, when solving cases, Zhu Zhilong often shows humanity, and this is shown in at least two places in the film.
The first part is at the beginning. Zhu Zhilong led his comrades to arrest a suspect, but the suspect happened to be moving the grave of his deceased mother. Zhu Zhilong asked his colleagues to unlock the suspect's handcuffs and let him complete the worship.
The second scene is when Zhu Zhilong met the suspect's child while solving the case. He picked up the child and handed it to the surrounding villagers and asked them to send it to the child's relatives' home. He even paid the villagers' travel expenses out of his own pocket. Two small details let us see what tenderness means.
The change in the relationship between Zhu Zhilong and his daughter in the film also allows us to see his unknown bitterness.
Because he was busy with work, he owed a lot to his daughter. Her daughter was full of hostility towards him and once wanted to get into Xiamen University to get away from her old father in the Northeast. But in the end, her daughter understood her father and the two of them were considerate. together.
The film uses three dimensions to restore to us the image of a criminal policeman who works vigorously and resolutely, and has a cold personality on the outside but hot on the inside. At the end, an interview video with the prototype character is released. You will find that the protagonist and the prototype character are surprisingly consistent in all aspects.
3. Prototype Character: The Detective Walking on the Tip of a Knife
After watching the movie, Brother Pi couldn’t help but search for the deeds of Zhu Zhenlong, the prototype of the movie, and found that the story of the real person was much better than The movie is even better.
Zhu Zhenlong has been a police officer for 23 years and has solved countless cases. Since 2013, he has been directly involved in solving more than 100 cases and arresting more than 50 suspects. The individual arrests of fugitives in homicide cases accounted for 64% of the total number of homicide arrests in Jixi City.
In 1996, Zhu Zhenlong, who had only been on the police for 8 months, acted bravely in a shopping mall. He knocked to the ground a knife-wielding robber with a wooden stick, and then left in a hurry, hiding his fame and success.
In a drug trafficking case in 2008, due to the stubborn resistance of the drug dealer, Zhu Zhenlong suffered a fracture in the palm of his right hand and a comminuted fracture in the ring finger of his left hand during the fight. However, he returned to the hospital with a sling bottle after staying in the hospital for a few days. Go to the unit and continue to participate in the detection of the case.
In 2013, the Provincial Public Security Department launched an operation to solve the backlog of murder cases. A murder case in 1993 had been buried in dust for 20 years. When Zhu Zhenlong reorganized the case, he found that the fugitive had been absconding for nearly 20 years, but someone gave his son to him in 2010. More than 30,000 yuan was remitted.
It was with the help of this clue that Zhu Zhenlong and his colleagues finally captured the fugitive. When they were caught, the fugitive was dumbfounded and said in surprise: "I almost forgot about this myself. I didn't expect you to still remember it." This case is the prototype of the story of "I Am a Policeman" "Chasing the Murderer Thousands of Miles". It was listed as one of the top ten classic criminal cases in the province in 2013 by the Provincial Public Security Department.
In 2017, Zhu Zhenlong and his teammates carried out an arrest in Shandong. They squatted hard and hardly slept for 6 days and 6 nights. Finally, they captured the suspect in a vegetable market with nearly 10,000 people. This scene was also Made it into the movie.
Zhu Zhenlong defended the mission and glory of the Chinese criminal police with 23 years of perseverance. When asked about his motivation for pursuing old cases for decades, he simply said: The detection of murder cases is for the family of the deceased. The best consolation. Financial cases can be compensated, but if your life is gone, there is nothing!
4. There are still 9 films waiting to be released
"I Am a Policeman" can be regarded as the conscience of domestic films, but it is just an introduction to the topic. In fact, "I am a policeman" The "It's a Police" series has just been launched, and there are still 9 works in this series to meet the audience. Looking at the police and case prototypes, each one makes people stop and stop.
For example, "Anti-Narcotics Pioneers" is adapted from the deeds of the Xishuangbanna Anti-Narcotics Detachment. It truly presents the danger and cruelty behind the day and night battles of the anti-drug police. 16.8 tons of drugs were seized and more than 600 criminals were arrested. Just looking at these two figures makes you wonder. Subconsciously, my heart trembled. This is also the work that Pi Ge is most looking forward to;
For example, "Heroes of Anti-Crime" is based on Yang Chun, the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau who sacrificed himself on the front line of anti-crime. The operation was postponed three times, and he finally died of a heart attack in the early morning. I believe that the restoration of this character in the film will also arouse deep emotions in the audience;
In addition, there is also the female special police captain Li Bei as the character The prototype of "Clang Police Beauty", the prototype of "Distant You" based on grassroots policeman Yang Hongfeng...
We need these ordinary heroes, and these heroes need to be seen by more people.
Now through the new medium of movies, the deeds of heroes and models are adapted into vivid stories to show the audience, and their ordinaryness and greatness can be seen at a glance. This is a way that is more acceptable to ordinary people. From this perspective , the "I Am a Police" series has made a good start.
In short, "I Am a Policeman" is a good movie, and Brother Pi strongly recommends it.
