spokesperson for heaven

"Quite a unique texture and layering. Just from a comedy perspective, the first two hours of the film are fast-paced, with novel routines and a mature commercial atmosphere. However, in the last 5 minutes - the situation has reversed.

Different from ordinary god reversal movies, the reversal of "Countdown" is not only reflected in the plot, but also in the structural level.It directly negates the narrative method of the whole movie, and presents a second completely different story through just one shot and one sentence.Such an exquisite concept has not been seen in the domestic film industry for a long time.

"Countdown" deserves a full score just because of the new possibilities it injects into Chinese-language movies. "

"Compared with the ending, what shocked me more about this movie is that it came from an amateur team. If you want to have a clear narrative in both positive and negative screenings, you must carefully plan from the script to the post-production, and a little mistake will ruin the whole film. But this amateur The team actually completed this complex and precise task.

What's even more unbelievable is: from the lighting, to the camera, to the scenery... Although it is still young, it is full of amazing aura.The aesthetics of cinema have never been so moving, so alive.

I really want to know how the team works. If possible, I hope Director Zhang San can clarify my doubts. "

"First lay out a beautiful illusion, and then tear it apart viciously. The countdown is so violently torn that it is unacceptable at once. But it doesn't matter, a good work will eventually move you. The biggest feature of "Countdown" is that : It is green, but it is full of a touch that does not know where it comes from; it shows off skills, but it also blooms with beautiful emotional flowers."

"I have always heard about Lin Jing's counterattack, but I have never watched related programs, and now I have witnessed it with my own eyes. He contributed the best performance in this film so far, just like watching Ajing from the sidelines. In a short life, see what he sees, feel what he feels, love what he loves.

Last year, Lin Jing declared that "Countdown" could afford a best actor trophy.Now, presumably no one will doubt it. "

Among all the film reviews, there is one with the most retweets. Its title is "Comedy on the Screen, Tragedy in the Audience's Brain, A "Heuristic Tragedy" Made by the Audience"

The film review is very long, listing all the hidden information in the film from beginning to end, what they imply, what metaphors, and what they inspire the audience to discover.

The film critics put forward the concept of "heuristic tragedy", and analyzed the technique used in "Countdown" to change from joy to sorrow.Behind these techniques, all are supported by relevant theories, such as iceberg theory, Kuleshov effect, semiotics, psychoanalysis, psychology... The most extreme is the use of montage art. Different lens connections produce different results. It's almost the pinnacle of skill.

At the end of the film review, there is this passage:

"A group of newcomers with zero experience took an extremely difficult idea and used their skills to the extreme, but the final story was so touching, so sincere, and so full of inspiration. I think this in itself is a miracle. "

Structure, script, story content, characters, shooting techniques... Professional film critics from major film media have given relevant comments from different angles.

The movie certainly has flaws, but even the harshest reviews give it pretty high marks.

These film reviews are posted on personal blogs or public accounts, and are summarized by the media they belong to and published as electronic publications.

The authoritative magazine "Chinese Film Weekly" collected these professional scores and gave "Countdown" a total score, which was published on relevant platforms.This score has always been trusted by movie fans, and it is a true reflection of the movie's reputation.

With a score of 9.2, "Countdown" is the highest-scoring Chinese film in the past five years, and it has been classified as a masterpiece.

The score of "Laughter" is 8.9, which is not low, but it is still one step away from a masterpiece.

Prior to this, the word-of-mouth of the film had accumulated to a critical point, and the appearance of the total score of film critics completely ignited it.

Movie fans feel honored when they see their favorite movie score so high, and excitedly post comments to expand the scope of Amway.At the same time, there are not a few movie fans who have watched "Coax". They did not expect the countdown score to be higher, and they bought tickets to enter the theater one after another.

The large number of newly added viewers will give more positive feedback. The two achieve each other, and the data of "Countdown" began to surge.

The box office, which had been tepid in the past three days, finally began to show a counterattack trend, rising like a rocket.

The CCTV program and Lin Jing's clarification also turned the noisy public opinion, and a large number of netizens are watching Lin Jing's actions.

Lin Jing asked Xu You again.

Lin Jing Damowang: @许住, the video was shot well, I really want to know what you were thinking when you took the video.

Xu You who saw this Weibo: "..."

Xu You: "What does he mean? Relying on his popularity to be confident? I don't believe that he can really produce evidence to refute it. Even if netizens trust him now, can it remain the same?"

His manager said, "He's crazy, don't bother with him."

Xu You was very angry, but he felt that the situation was clear now, and he didn't need to be coaxed anymore.

So he posted a long section on Weibo, first denying Lin Jing's accusation, then lamenting that Lin Jing had gone the wrong way, and then accusing Lin Jing of unfair competition, which robbed him of many opportunities, and finally said that he would definitely learn from it, keep it up.

After posting on the large account, he also boarded the small account and sprayed him on Lin Jing Weibo.He released all the squeezed resentment, as if the harder he scolded, the more elated he became.

A few minutes later, with a ding dong, Lin Jing clicked on his trumpet.

He quickly clicked in, and then he was speechless for a while, thinking that Lin Jing was really knocked out of his mind, and he could even do such a thing.

Lin Jing posted a screenshot of the most scolding message on Weibo, and Aite was the master.

He didn't say anything, just posted screenshots, Aite people.

Not only Xu You, but everyone didn't understand his intentions. Could it be that he was really mad?That's right, those people scolded too much, they didn't scold out of thin air, they commented on the video while scolding.

"Looking at the video, you're too fucked up, with a dissatisfied look on your face, tsk tsk tsk, when will it be my brother's turn? Although I don't have any money, I'm good at my job, I'm sure you'll be satisfied.”

"Slut, people look like dogs on TV, why are they so flirtatious in the video, it's a pity that they don't take off their clothes, it looks good when they take off."

"Lin Poxie will make a few more videos, one is not enough to watch, I have been laughing at this one all day hahahahaha."

A dozen or so pieces of Xu Youxiao's account were cut off, and all of them were hung up, forming a long picture separately.

When the comments were full of speculation, this Weibo was reposted by a person, Han Duo.

He said: I often wonder how vicious people in this world can be.

Han Duo's fans have long since become buddhas, and they can tell that Lin Jing, his cooking iron station, doesn't mean to stay out of it at all.

Lin Jing's unpretentious attitude further intensified the conflict. Those who supported him and those who hated him began to fight each other. A large number of passers-by joined in, and the situation intensified.

There are many people who are willing to believe in Lin Jing, but after he made a clarification, he made no other moves.Weibo was posted non-stop all day long, either provoking Xu You or posting insulting remarks, secretly instigating public opinion and expanding the situation.

A week after the movie was released, most of the film critics released their reviews, only two remained silent.

One is Mr. Okawa, a famous film critic with 300 million fans, and the other is Jiang Shi, whose phone screen was broken.

At any rate, Jiang Shi even posted a "The movie is very successful", although it attracted fans to beat him wildly.Okawa really didn't write a word, and didn't even score.

Some netizens on Weibo reminded them that their opinions were surprisingly consistent: I always feel that this movie has not shown the whole picture so far, and there may be some stories that have not been told. It is too early to write a movie review now.

Netizens are convinced, this movie is telling a story backwards, and there is nothing to tell. Can there be a third story?

Jiang Shi was ridiculed by netizens and couldn't help throwing out evidence.

He pointed out: The ending of "Countdown" may not be the death of the main character.

-

Jiang Shi watching the movie: There is a huge mirror in Ah Jing’s room. Picture [-] is a certain calendar in the middle of the movie. The numbers are displayed in the mirror, so it presents a kind of mirror reversal.Sometimes, the picture does not capture the edge of the mirror, but through the flipped numbers, we can also know that this is the image in the mirror. 【picture】

But don't forget that some numbers are still numbers after flipping the mirror, and you can't tell from the surface whether it is in the mirror or not.

In the last scene of "Countdown", Ah Jing is lying on the hospital bed, and his life and death are unknown.If the number on the calendar is May 5th, then this is the ending of the film, and Ah Jing will definitely die.

However, in this scene, the arrangement of the bedside table has changed.The flowers that were placed in the cabinet on the left appeared on the cabinet on the right.

You can't tell if it's because the flower was taken, or because the mirror image was flipped.So you can't be sure if this scene is shown in the mirror.

Therefore, you cannot be sure whether the correct date of this scene is May 5th or February 5nd.

If the latter is correct, Ah Jing's ending was not death from illness at all, but his condition worsened on February 2nd.So what is his end?

--have no idea.The last part of the movie became the part of the clinical experiment, and there was no clear explanation of A Jing's ending.

As far as I'm concerned, I'd rather believe that the second ending is true.Ah Jing is still in that laboratory, and he is still continuing to fulfill his dream.Maybe one day, the anti-cancer drug experiment will really be successful, and he will be able to recover his health, and embark on the journey with his brother again, to fulfill his wish, make up for his regrets, and turn his life into a true fulfillment.

I prefer to believe that Lin Jing still let him go in the ending. This open ending is the kindness he left for Ah Jing and the audience.

I would rather believe that even though this story is full of regret and helplessness, it will eventually come to a conclusion.Kind people can get good rewards, hard work will definitely pay off, and what you want to do can be done with all your strength.

I would rather believe that as long as you treat the world with tenderness, the world will return tenderness.

I won’t write a movie review for the time being, and wait for @林景大魔王 to answer questions. If the movie has not been released, the above is my movie review.

Jiang Shi's long Weibo post sparked the second "Countdown" movie review frenzy, and the number of movie reviews on Weibo skyrocketed again.

Fans spread the word to ten, ten to hundreds, and they all learned of Jiang Shi's discovery.Recalling the plot of the movie, some tears couldn't help but turn red. If the ending is really as Jiang Shi said, it would be great!

Everyone discussed and helped Jiang Shiai, Lin Jing and Zhang San.Originally, I didn't expect to get a reply. The main creator always likes to keep this kind of question about the ending hazy and beautiful, and let the audience guess for themselves.

Unexpectedly, that night, Lin Jing really replied to Jiang Shi.

Great Demon King Lin Jing: Thank you for your support.If you count the recovery, there are three endings in this movie. ps. I would rather believe it.

The fans realized what he meant, and they were so happy that they desperately left a message to say thank you, thank you for his willingness to leave an open ending, and for giving Ah Jing a possibility of a happy ending.

These thanks actually swiped the screen and overwhelmed the tears in the comment area.Movie fans and fan circles seem to be in two worlds, out of tune.

The story spread, bringing another wave of viewers to the movie.These people are interested in the movie, but they dare not watch it because of spoilers. They heard that there is a happy open ending, so they immediately bought tickets.

On the tenth day after the movie was released, word-of-mouth and box office continued to rise, and the box office fell again, because the scandal of Lin Jing intensified, and the voice of boycotting "Countdown" gradually spread.

Before, passers-by fans kept whitewashing him, which caused a wave of public opinion backlash.Many real passers-by started to follow Hei Linjing because of being illogically whitewashed.

As Lin Jing only knew how to provoke and hang people day by day, but couldn't produce any evidence to prove his innocence, the passerby fans gradually stopped talking.The true love fan is hard to support alone, and is gradually showing signs of decline.

The wind direction on Weibo has changed drastically. The previous political correctness was to believe in Lin Jing, but now the political correctness is to black Lin Jing.

At this moment, an account that had nothing to do with Lin Jing posted an unbelievable Weibo.

Suhetang Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic: Let me tell you something strange.I took the most popular video recently and asked my father if I could tell what kind of medicine the protagonist had taken. After watching the video, my father said, "What kind of medicine do you care about? This person is dead!" I said it was impossible. , he is alive and kicking now, my father doesn't believe it, insisting that he is dead.

When this Weibo was first posted, there were not many people who responded, and it slowly became a hot search after a few hours, ranking it at the bottom of the list.

Netizens who clicked in were laughing at first: What kind of onion is your father, who dares to go to your home to see a Chinese medicine doctor?

Later, the entry of "Suhetang Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic" climbed to the forefront of the hot search because it was ridiculed.

More and more people laughed, and finally someone couldn't help but post a popular science.Suhetang is the most powerful Chinese medicine hall in the capital. The father of the Weibo manager is named Liu Cang, the top Chinese medicine expert in the country. He is counted among five people from top to bottom. The one who has seen the leader kind.

The slap in the face came so suddenly that netizens were stunned.

Since you are so awesome, why do you say that Lin Jing is dead?People are living well, and they still post on Weibo every day.

Liu Cangyuan, he personally posted on Weibo, saying that he was absolutely right. In the last state of the protagonist in the video, [-]% of the chances of death would be on the spot.

Now, the people who eat melons are collectively confused.

The top Chinese medicine experts personally made a conclusion, you can't help but believe it.Will the top big bulls in the industry lie at the risk of losing their reputation?

But what happened?Isn't the protagonist of the video Lin Jing? ?

Lin Jing's Weibo was completely hacked, and people everywhere asked him to tell the truth. When he entered Weibo, the continuous Aite could directly brick his mobile phone.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Han Duo posted a live broadcast link on the homepage. Fans clicked in, but what they saw was Lin Jing's face.

Lin Jing was outdoors, his hair was blown into a mess.He smiled at the camera and said: "Thank you for watching the live broadcast, because my phone card crashed, so I had to use Han Duo's phone."

Barrage: "...you two, hurry up and make it public!"

Lin Jing continued: "A lot of things have happened recently, and many people have questioned me. The purpose of this live broadcast today is to make a thorough clarification, and also to...let you witness something."

The live broadcast only lasted 10 minutes, and the entry "Lin Jing clarified" quickly reached the top of the trending search, a large number of viewers poured in, and the bullet screen was so crowded that his face could not be seen.The official background operation and maintenance had to stare at the live broadcast room, in case the melon-eating crowd crushed the entire Weibo.

Lin Jing raised his head and looked at something while talking to the barrage.

He seemed to be sitting on a park bench, and he couldn't tell where he was just looking at the background.In addition to his face in the camera, a slender and tough hand appears from time to time, helping him to straighten the selfie stick, arrange his hair and so on.Fans immediately recognized that it was Han Duo, and Han Duo was by his side!

Lin Jing ignored the wailing of the fans, and did not answer the questions for the time being. It could be seen that he was waiting for someone.

Finally, that person appeared.

Lin Jing stared at it for a while, then changed the live camera to the rear.At the end of the long gravel path, a handsome and tall young man walked slowly.

It turned out to be Xu You!

Netizens thought in astonishment: Lin Jing asked Xu You to come out to meet, and the latter really came?And come alone? ? ?

There is a secret between these two!Don't tell anyone!

Everyone got excited and stretched out their hands to borrow melons. Judging from today's situation, it is Lin Jing's death and Lin Jing's live broadcast. This melon is definitely not too small, it is a shockingly big melon!

After Xu You approached, he saw Han Duo sitting beside Lin Jing.

"Why is he here too?" He frowned and said impatiently.

Lin Jing said: "He said he wanted to accompany me. I thought about it, and it would be nice to have someone by my side to witness this kind of moment."

"What time, what are you talking about?" After Xu You finished speaking, he looked at his selfie stick and suddenly frowned, "What are you doing with your phone?"

Before anyone could answer, Xu You's phone rang, and as soon as he connected, the agent yelled over there: "Why the hell are you running to see Lin Jing alone? Don't say anything you shouldn't say, he's live broadcasting!"

Xu You froze.

Lin Jing smiled and said, "I asked you a question on Weibo, but you haven't answered it yet. When you took that video, what were you thinking in your heart, can you tell me?"

Xu You was furious, but he didn't dare to explode in front of the camera, so he said bluntly: "I don't know what you're talking about, I'll leave if I have nothing to do!"

There was a lot of discussion in the live broadcast room, but at this moment, as soon as Xu You turned around, four tall men suddenly rushed out from nowhere, punched Xu You to the ground with a hammer from behind!

A person cut his hands behind his back, put handcuffs on him, and shouted: "Don't move, policeman!"

Xu You was dumbfounded for a moment.

The audience was also dumbfounded for a moment.

Barrage:"!!!?????"

"How fat four! Why did you arrest Xu You!??"

"My God, this is too scary. The police arrested Xu You. Could it be that Lin Jing is right, that the video was really shot by him? So, did something happen to the protagonist of the video??? "

"I was so careless!!! I watched that video three times!!! I thought it was really a hidden rule pornography!!!"

The faces of the four policemen were not recorded in the live broadcast, but Xu You's distressed appearance was clearly recorded.

Xu You lay on the ground and yelled angrily: "I didn't do anything wrong! Why are you arresting me!!!"

Lin Jing's clear and cold voice came from outside the painting: "You know, this is what I can't figure out the most. A villain killed a person lightly, and then laughed at his tragedy as if nothing had happened. It's a pity that he couldn't let him Even worse, I still think it was just a prank, a joke.”

He continued, regardless of the fact that he was live broadcasting as a popular star, "Traveling on other people's self-esteem, insulting their personality, what can you learn from it? Happiness? Excitement? The pleasure of revenge?"

"Do you think that video was just him being drugged and tortured by you?"

"Let me tell you, Xu You. My twin brother, who was terminally ill, was conspired by you to inhale an overdose of stimulants, and died in that dark changing room without anyone knowing."

"Since a year ago, I suspected that the murderer was you, but I couldn't find any evidence. Until you released that so-called indecent video in order to frame me."

"Let me tell you, Xu You. It is not an indecent video of me being subjected to unspoken rules, nor is it the process of me being tortured by medicine as you think. It is the last struggle and cry for help of a living life before passing away."

Xu You's mind went blank, he almost forgot to breathe, and his body trembled involuntarily.

The barrage was silent.

Lin Jing said: "You may argue that you didn't drug him on purpose, and you didn't know that such a large dose could kill you. You don't want to kill someone."

"But I still want to tell you, Xu You."

"He doesn't want to die either."

"From the day I suspected you, I have never wanted to question you, but I have endured until today. The evidence surfaced and the guilty were punished."

"I just want to tell you——I must hit you in the face with evidence to let you know that you did something wrong!"

"You have to recognize the mistake, you have to apologize to him, you have to know what an ugly person you are, you have to regret it, you have to put away that smug face, you have to -- confess the crime."

Speaking of this, Lin Jing no longer cared about the consequences of the live broadcast.

"Killing someone without knowing it, and even being complacent afterwards, is really hateful. I must let you know that you killed someone, your hands are covered with blood, you are guilty, and you should pay the price."

"Now—you know what?"

"Xu You, answer my words."

"Do you understand!"

Xu You's tears flowed down all at once, and he couldn't help shaking, unable to utter a word.

A policeman said to Lin Jing: "Oh, you too... calm down. We understand your anger, but now the police are on business, so it would be nice to allow you to watch the live broadcast."

Lin Jing was silent for a moment, and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"That's fine, we'll go back first, and thank you for cooperating with the investigation this time."

The policeman shook his head, and escorted the people away with his companions.

In the live broadcast, their backs are getting smaller and smaller.

When he was about to get into the police car, Xu You knelt down on the ground with a plop.

Finally, he wailed.

"Sorry, I was wrong, I got it, I got it..."
