After eating the soul, only a numb body is left... This is the feeling I want, do you understand?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

Everyone was silent.

The oldest and most senior man silently lit a cigarette.

Underneath his gray beard, smoke surrounded him.

It seems to be sighing.

It seems to be tasting.

Through this... just a simple narrative, I can taste the most authentic appearance of the martial arts world back then.

so good.

He said in his heart.

Listen clearly.

Listen thoroughly.

Is what the director conveys profound?

Quite the opposite.

Not deep.

It's very straightforward. As long as you understand Chinese, you will be able to understand what he wants.

He conveyed what he wanted clearly and unmistakably in the simplest words.

But the more this happens, the more you can feel the... mysterious and mysterious temperament in this film.

The old man has been filming movies all his life.

Met many people.

Big director, little director.

Big screenwriter, small screenwriter.

Wulin people, outsiders.

Three religions and nine streams, all over the world.

Who hasn’t seen it?

But if you ask them about the world they talk about...in fact, most of them are the same.

Jianghu is Jianghu.

There are heroes who are short of breath, and there are children who are long in love.

This is Jianghu.

He has listened too much.

Watched too much.

Different people have different understandings of Jianghu.

The reason why I like working with Xiao Xu is actually this.

Others' worlds are mostly romantic.

But there is an extra humanity in Xiao Xu's world that ordinary people can't imagine.

Human nature is always complex.

But whether they are master writers, screenwriters, directors...their world always seems very simple.

It's so simple that it feels like just a fantasy.

Fantasy is unreal.

But Xiao Xu’s world is the most “restorative” one.

At least, that's what he thought before today.

But now, when he heard "Jianghu" in Xiao Xu's mouth, he finally realized what he said.

It turns out that Xiao Xu’s world is actually just a fantasy.

What Xiao Xu says is the most real world.

The temple is too high.

The world is too far away.

It is difficult for outsiders to reach.

But the people living inside are all the same.

People in the arena have to create a set of things to show to outsiders.

Show outsiders what you can see.

Close the door and prevent people from seeing things that cannot be seen.

At first glance, it seems like nonsense, but...if you are involved in it, you can understand what kind of cold-blooded irony lies beneath this set of simple logic that seems no different from nonsense.

Outsiders don't understand.

but……

After this movie is released, maybe everyone will understand it.

No, everyone must understand.

Xiao Xu...is like a butcher.

Through this story... no, to be precise, there are two scenes.

Two scenes deconstructed a world that has existed for thousands of years.

Dismembered, split, turned into a movie, and served on the dining table.

It has become a pastime that everyone can just buy a ticket to watch.

"call……"

The old man puffed out smoke again.

Feeling a little melancholy for no reason.

But at some point, a shadow appeared in his eyes.

No, two groups.

The two shadows each held two blades, biting and killing each other silently in the rainy night.

Along with the sharp blade entering the body, twisting, and pulling out, it will make a tooth-piercing sound.

Like a beast in the falling rain.

Life and death.

But it protected the vital point.

Want to cover up.

The hotter they are.

The old man felt more and more ironic.

Knew it……

Practicing martial arts is all about strengthening your body.

Others... no matter what the purpose, it really reveals a bit of hypocrisy.

…

"I kind of regret it."

This was the first thing Yang Mi said to her husband after everyone left.

"?"

Looking at her lover's confused look, she shrugged:

"I suddenly became interested in your film."

Xu Xin rolled his eyes speechlessly:

"Who are you going to play?"

"...I want to play Chen Shi, do you agree?"
