Throughout the film, King Qin oscillates between revenge for his frustrated past, seeking peace for the world, and obeying the oath he made to the ancestors of all dynasties. In the long run, the end point of the three is the same. But as the film progresses, the contradiction between the two becomes more prominent. He attacked Handan and destroyed South Korea for the sake of peace for the future; he killed his half-brother and removed the rebellious concubine for the sake of his oath and his kingship. If you want the world to live in harmony, you must strip away all your humanity, and the wheel of history has never carried a trace of emotion. He built a single-plank bridge for Zhao Nv in the Four Seas Guiyi Hall, captured Handan, and captured Zhao State for the hatred of his childhood. Such a wish may be a little narrow, but it is the deepest and most primitive wish in King Qin's heart in the film. Yan Dan's swords were drawn, Zhao Nv's betrayal, the rebellion between his mother and Concubine, and Lu Buwei's "completeness" made the King of Qin have to part ways with him. In the golden forest, he chose the less traveled road. From another perspective, Jing Ke stabbed the King of Qin, and the King of Qin walked around the column, more like the past who was chasing and killing the current King of Qin, and asked: Is your original intention still there? Perhaps from then on, he did not forget the promise of the unification of the Qin Dynasty's predecessors for a moment. In the end, Yiren is long gone, his mother is gone, Lu Buwei is dead, Zhao Nv is also gone, there is no one around him, because in the mouths of those around him, he has become a god-killed Ying Zheng , leaving only a few strokes in the history of the great cause of unification seems particularly ironic, that the childish King of Qin is the real King of Qin. The road to the emperor is like a process of stripping the bones and stripping away all human nature until it becomes a statue, which can be worshipped by all people.
