Ni Yongxiao's Revenge

I watched this movie to pass the time on the plane. Maybe after a long time, when the faces of Edison Chen and Shawn Yue gradually blurred in my mind, I will still remember Wu Zhenyu wearing a white shirt and gold wire glasses, and the sadness in his eyes when he looked up.
In Infernal Affairs 2, in my eyes, the most splendid chapter is Ni Yongxiao's Revenge.

Ni Yongxiao's character is too wonderful. The youngest son of the underworld boss, wearing glasses and looking gentle and harmless. He probably didn't talk much, and none of the boss's subordinates really took him seriously. His father died unexpectedly, the house was in chaos, and his subordinates were ready to rebel. He stood up and calmly said that he was going out to buy a pack of cigarettes. Three calm phone calls settled his subordinates, and he came to the food stall to silently toast his father with a glass of water and wine.
Since then, the position of the boss has been firmly established. After the return of Hong Kong, he tried his best to wash away the dark history of his family and seek a bright future for his family. In the end, a clever game was set up to get rid of several people he had endured for many years, and avenged his father.
Courageous, resourceful, patient, and ruthless. Such a dangerous core is hidden in a seemingly weak skin, and this contrast makes this character Su Dao is about to explode. The unconditional protection of his family has given this character a weakness, neutralizing his ruthlessness to the outside world, making him seem human.
This character is too good, not only because it is sharp enough, but also because it is very layered. But a very good character design is also a double-edged sword. If you can't act it, it will appear pretentious and exaggerated. Fortunately, it met Wu Zhenyu.

There is mutual achievement between Wu Zhenyu and this character. The compatibility of temperament causes resonance between the two, and the effect is far greater than just looking at either of the two. He stood there, raised his hand, raised his eyes, and even the slight tremor in his chest, all fit so well, so appropriate, so appropriate that you didn't realize that this was acting, but felt that he was Ni Yongxiao, and Ni Yongxiao was like this of.

Huang Qiusheng said: "The golden belt was murdered and set on fire, and the bridges and auxiliary roads were repaired without remains." But the people with the golden belt are self-aware: "If you come out and hang out, you will have to pay it back sooner or later." People live in the moment, and even if they have a hunch about the future direction, they still have to go on their own track. This kind of helplessness is probably called fate.
Infernal Affairs is a Buddhist term, and this story is also filled with the sadness of fate. Ni Yongxiao tried his best to keep his family safe. His younger brother who gambled a lot betrayed him. When he opened Yongren's chest before he died and saw the bug, there were too many eyes in his eyes. Meaning, but the final choice is to bury Yongin's clothes. Family and destiny are not optional. Ni Yongxiao has carried too many things in his life, and death may be a kind of relief. Fate and destiny are too far away, and the freedom of the mind cannot be reached.

    This is the best movie. Wu Zhenyu is very handsome, and Mrs. Chen is also very handsome. Carina Lau can be seen as amazing. The last shot of Mrs. Chen’s smile is really heart-warming.
