Under the blue sky, think carefully about
another dream in the world like a spring dream.
In 2015, the Japanese General Kanjima as a modern industrial facility The heritage application was successful. Two years later, Huang Zhengmin, Su Zhikui, and Song Zhongji jointly detonated the cultural heritage of this hell on the screen. China, once a brother in need, can let more people understand and remember this history, and indeed should clap your hands. Hurry up. The film has sold copyrights to 113 countries and regions around the world, including North America, France, Russia, Turkey, Japan, Singapore, Vietnam, and Thailand. Most Asian countries bought "Gunkanjima" at the highest price among Korean films. It’s a pity that there is no China in this, and the film resources have been delayed after more than 40 days of being released in South Korea (of course, considering the influence of domestic protection month and THAAD), I have to say that it is a pity.
On the eve of the recovery in 1945, North Korean laborers (among them a large number of Chinese laborers) were still forced to dig coal mines in coal mine tunnels 1,000 meters below the seabed with temperatures as high as 40 degrees. Li Jiangyu (Huang Zhengmin) was originally the head of the Beijing Hotel Orchestra, but he was deceived to Gunkanjima because he was bewitched by the rape police. Cui Qixing (Su Zhikui) underworld in Beijing, after boarding Gunkanjima, he wanted to use his fists and men to become a foreman in charge of the miners. Park Moo-young (Song Joong-ki), an elite fighter trained by the Korean Independence Movement, was ordered to sneak into Gunkanjima to rescue the independence movement activist Yoon Xuezhe, only to discover that he was a villain. The Japanese who knew they were about to be defeated, in order to conceal the crimes committed during the war, were frantically to kill all the Koreans on the island. Song Zhongji and Huang Zhengmin, who learned the news at the critical juncture, decided to lead all North Korean workers to flee and fight to the death.
Although it is known that the possibility of laborers escaping from the island is remote and does not conform to historical facts, the artistic processing behind the film is still very shocking. The sad scenes are instead a cheerful soundtrack, which highlights the sadness and darkness. The cheerful soundtrack is in sharp contrast with the cruelty of reality. It is a metaphor for the insensitivity of labor and also highlights the ugliness of the Japanese army! Happiness belongs to the Japanese, but workers are tools for making fun!

-"Warship Island" movie episode
In my opinion, the film’s reflection on itself is the most commendable. The film does not exaggerate the ferocity of the enemy. On the contrary, it portrays the lives of all classes under the war’s dilemma. We can see that the film has a vivid picture of the nation itself. A kind of reflection, in the face of foreign invasion, colonization and oppression, their different choices, whether active or forced. The comfort woman played by Lee Jung Hyun, she wants to escape, but where can she escape? In the end, the person who deceived her was her fellow brother. Not only the Han nationality has national inferiority, but also the Korean nationality. In another South Korean red movie "Assassination", it was also mentioned that a large number of court traitors emerged during the Japanese colonization of Korea during World War II, and many of them were not liquidated after the war. Being in an important position is extremely ironic. In fact, every nation has its own disadvantages, that is, its own limitations. The nature of human beings is the most complicated one, and it is precisely because of the complexity of people that there are so many thought-provoking stories.
After seeing Mr. Chen Zhongshi's "White Deer Plain", I pay more and more attention to characters, human nature, and human nature in a specific historical context. The premise of a wonderful script is that there are one or many vivid characters. He is first of all a person, a living person, a person with seven emotions and six desires. He has his own unique character, his own thoughts, and his own choices, not a screenwriter. Or imagined or imposed on him by the director.
Every character will be used to imagine and perceive the world with his own logic. The capital is already the world of the Japanese. The country is neither the country nor the people. Li Jiangyu (Huang Zhengmin) is the head of the hotel orchestra and the father of his daughter. If he wants to survive, he has to commit himself to the Japanese. The greed of money is just to live. It's nothing more than the means to get down or escape. There is no one who is not greedy for money, especially in troubled times. It is precisely because of greed for money that he has become a flesh and blood character. People in troubled times are nothing but a drop of ants in the ocean, insignificant. In order to survive and be a comrade of the colonists, he could bribe the police station in order to escape the capital, and he could bargain with the Independence Army in order to allow his daughter to escape from the hell-like warship island. From oppression to resistance, there are progressive changes in the characters. Huang Zhengmin's acting skills also perfectly interpret the changes of the characters from beginning to end, which is the core of his superb acting skills.
Compared with Li Jiangyu (Huang Zhengmin), the existence of the characters of the Independence Army (Song Zhongji) is much bleak, like a routine of facial makeup. Nevertheless, in the current commercial society that pursues efficiency, the era of small fresh meat will always exist. , After all, appearance and acting skills are hard to find, just like, Chinese history has always been rare.
