Walking into the cinema again with his girlfriend, Zhang Kang looked around and found that the attendance rate of this "No Man's Land" was not high, barely reaching 60%.

Maybe it was because it was noon now, and "No Man's Land" was a low-budget film, there were definitely no cool special effects, and the style was also more realistic, which was not so attractive to the audience. At least families with children on holidays or audiences who pursue exciting special effects would not consider it.

"It doesn't look good." said his girlfriend next to him.

"There are too few screenings, and the time period is not very good." Zhang Kang said: "But Ye Zhiqiu's movies are all word-of-mouth. Generally, the box office will not be very strong at the beginning. It depends mainly on the follow-up."

The girlfriend nodded, and while the two were chatting in a low voice, the lights in the theater dimmed and the movie began.

At the beginning of the plot, the poacher played by Huang Bo catches falcons. After being caught by plainclothes police, he tries to bribe them but fails. The poaching group leader directly drives his car to overturn the police car, and then takes the initiative to call the police and goes to jail...

The movie has a fast pace, without any dragging links. The plot is linked one by one, which can easily attract the audience. It is not obvious that this is the work of a new director who is directing for the first time.

Then, Pan Xiao, the lawyer who argues for the poacher boss Dobujie, played by Ye Zhiqiu, appears.

To be honest, as a fan of Ye Zhiqiu, Zhang Kang was a little surprised to see the role of Pan Xiao.

With medium-length hair, half-frame glasses, a mustache, and a slightly old-fashioned mature suit, coupled with a superior and confident look, the whole person's temperament reveals four words.

- Gentleman scum.

In fact, in the minds of many viewers, Ye Zhiqiu's screen image is famous for "ancient costumes", because his slender figure and handsome temperament are very suitable for ancient costumes.

He has also acted in modern dramas. Hou Liangping, played in "In the Name of People", is one of them, and is also widely praised.

If the audience has not seen his previous works, it is difficult to connect the "Pan Xiao" in front of them with the former "Xu Changqing".

In court, lawyer Pan Xiao's "sophistry" finally made the poacher acquitted, and many viewers were angry about this scene.

This feeling is like "obviously a murderer, why is there a lawyer to defend him?" Without delving into the deep-seated legal reasons, the concept of ordinary people is very "rough and direct" - such bad people who can be seen at a glance do not need to be tried, and can be shot directly.

But Pan Xiao "rescued" the poacher for money and fame. Isn't this a black-hearted lawyer?

At the same time, Zhang Kang in the audience also felt a little puzzled.

Isn't Pan Xiao the protagonist? If even he is a bad guy, then who is the good guy in this play?

Continuing to watch, when Pan Xiao drove away in the "debt-repaying car", he soon met the police officer who had lost the lawsuit before, and mocked him again.

However, his "arrogance" only applies to civilized society. In the no-man's land, it is another set of survival rules.

After entering the no-man's land, he was spit on and urinated in the car by the truck duo. He finally set the rice stalks on the other truck on fire and got back a point. He continued to drive forward and encountered a killer who blocked the road, and directly hit the other party half to death.

Then he came to the gas station, and he deeply experienced what a "black shop" is.

Facing Pan Xiao's accusation of "extortion", the gas station owner pointed a kitchen knife at his face and said.

"Who extorted? Don't say that!"

"We call this 'bundling operation', do you know?"

Seeing this, many viewers couldn't help laughing out loud, and complained in their hearts.

What a bundled business!

However, when the male audience saw the "Energy Saving" program performed by the dancer played by Li Wenwen, they suddenly became energetic.

This bundled business seems to be expensive for a reason.

However, for Zhang Kang, who has a girlfriend by his side, he must not show it...

The plot continues to advance. The truck duo arrives at the gas station. Pan Xiao, who was taught a lesson, drives away with difficulty. Then the killer who was unconscious in the back seat of the car wakes up and almost dies at the hands of the other party. He is rescued by the gas station owner who catches up with him.

Then, the poaching boss Dobujie appears.

At the gas station, he encountered the "extortion" of the black-hearted boss lady. He didn't say a word. After paying the money, he stepped on the accelerator and killed the other party.

Seeing this, many viewers secretly shouted "cool".

The evil needs the evil!

The following plot is full of high energy. To sum it up, there are three words - killing crazy!

The poacher killer was hammered to death by the gas station owner's stupid son, who was then hit to death by the poacher boss who caught up with him. The poacher boss then killed the gas station owner.board killed...

Finally, in the gas station, Pan Xiao, who ran back, used a trick to alienate the poaching boss and the people who came to buy falcons, and used a lighter to light the oil barrel on the truck to die with the poaching boss, and successfully rescued the dancer Jiaojiao.

Like all the audience, Zhang Kang almost held his breath to watch the rest of the plot.

It was not until the scene changed and the dancer Jiaojiao, who returned to the city, came to a dance school to apply for a job that he was slightly relieved.

Looking at the city scene illuminated by the sun, he felt a trance and split.

In the "no man's land", there are no rules, and there is no good person. People follow the jungle law of "the strong prey on the weak" like beasts.

In the city, it seems that all this "beastly nature" has been covered up, and human civilization has been restored.

According to convention, the dancer Jiaojiao should be successfully employed and become a dance teacher to teach children, and then the whole movie will end in warmth, right? Zhang Kang thought.

Generally speaking, movies are like this. If the plot is too dark, it ends with a bright ending to create a contrast.

However, to his surprise, Jiaojiao did not apply for this job.

In fact, think about it, how can a person who has no education, has only worked as a dancer, has not systematically studied dance, and has been out of touch with society for a long time become a teacher easily?

At the end of the movie, it was a dim night. Jiaojiao staggered out of a bar. Looking up, a falcon's figure and a cry cut through the sky...

At this point, the whole movie officially ended.

Seeing this, Zhang Kang suddenly shuddered and suddenly widened his eyes-he understood.

The last scene of the film did not explain anything with lines or narration. It can be seen that Ye Zhiqiu adopted an "open" ending.

This ending can be understood from two aspects. First, the dancer Jiaojiao failed to find a job and went to the bar to get drunk because of the blow. Second, Jiaojiao had no skills and could not find a foothold after returning to the city. She was poor and helpless and was forced to work as a dancer in the bar again...

In fact, Zhang Kang prefers the second ending.

This ending is not bright at all, but it is closer to reality. Ye Zhiqiu used this ending to reveal a reality.

The prosperous city is actually no different from the "no man's land" in essence. It's just that the bestiality of human beings is covered under the bright shell, but it is also a world of "the survival of the fittest".

It can be said that this ending makes the whole movie sublime.
