What are the interesting details in "Hot Pot Hero"

1 In the movie, the first meeting between Brother Qi and Liu Bo is arranged in the scene where Brother Qi buys fish. Brother Qi urged Liu Bo to pay off his gambling debt. At this time, the fishmonger asked Brother Qi whether he would chop off the fish head. Brother Qi proudly said, "Yes." Then the camera gave the chopped fish head a special feature, which set the stage for Brother Qi’s future cruelty. The OS in Brother Qi’s mind at that time was clearly: You, Liu Bo, are the fish on my chopping board, chop it up if you want!

2 When Liu Bo was looking for the letter written to him by Yu Xiaohui in the room, he saw among the books scattered on the floor "Story Meeting" and "The Great Demon King and the Immortal" (this book is the "Great Demon King" in the Dragon Ball series "Mystery Volume 4", published in 1991), and "Thousands of Rivers and Mountains Are Always Love" (a comic strip of the 1982 version of the TV series)...these are the youthful memories of people like Liu Bo.

3 The director's only special and obvious tribute was to put the PTU Mobile Unit logo on Hui Tung's modified car. Yang Qing admitted that he really liked Johnnie To's films shot in Hong Kong, and "PTU" is Yang Qing knew about director Johnnie To's first work. In addition, Yang Qing revealed that when he couldn't continue writing the script, he watched Johnnie To's "The King", so some plot points were also included. (PS: PUT is the abbreviation of Police Tactical Unit, which refers to the Police Tactical Unit. It is a branch of the police force of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Its responsibility is to handle emergencies and protect public safety.)

4 Yu Xiaohui is here When the robbers and all the bank employees were present, they took off Liu Bo's mask, not because she was a "pig teammate", but because she was too excited and moved. The first time Liu Bo saved her was when he was in school. He did it unintentionally, but from then on she was moved. However, this time, Liu Bo did not accidentally come to save her. On the contrary, he came to save her deliberately and was willing to sacrifice his life to protect her. So she couldn't believe it. She took off the mask just to confirm again that he was Liu Bo and that he finally liked her.

5 The gang of four robbers, that is, the four good-looking young men. After they took off their black robber blouses and masks, what appeared in front of us were white clothes wearing Japanese high school uniforms. Teenager image. But their true identities are definitely not high school students. The reason why they put on white uniforms is because only in this way can they minimize the suspicion of passers-by and the police. Moreover, if they wear high school uniforms, they will also have to carry a few heavy bags. A school bag (purse bag) will not feel strange.

When the gang of 6 robbers was about to leave the Dongzi Hot Pot Restaurant, they put their masks on Xu Dong, Liu Bo, Yan Yan, and Yu Xiaohui. The four figures correspond to the mask characters one-to-one. Yu Xiaohui corresponds to Tang Seng because she is the one who "guides" them. Liu Bo corresponds to Sun Wukong because he is the top shareholder of the hot pot restaurant among the three. He has a stubborn personality, strong self-esteem, and dares to sacrifice. Xu Dong corresponds to Zhu Bajie because he always drags the team back, being lazy but also smart. The glasses correspond to Sha Seng, because he is a down-to-earth yet introverted doormat.

At the end of the 7 movie, Liu Bo could choose not to chase the robber, but he still chased him hard and said to the robber, "If you took my things, I will get them back." This is not because he wants to keep the money in the bank, nor is it because of the promise of being written off by Brother Qi. The reason given in the movie is that Liu Bo wanted to keep the letter that Yu Xiaohui wrote to him but he had not had time to read it.

But Chen Kun said in the interview, "Because I feel that if you mess with me, I must get it back. I didn't mess with you, why did you spit in my face? Why are you so crazy?" ", "I would think, I must kill him, because he is carrying so much luggage alone, he can't run away, I must kill him." Therefore, this is a subjective and crazy act. What the director wants to show more is Liu Bo's bloodiness and pride, as well as the unique stubbornness of Chongqing men.

Almost all the elements in 8 street battles are black. Black umbrellas, black telephone poles, black pigeons, rain-soaked green and black steps, and roofs all exaggerate a cold-blooded and cruel gloom. atmosphere.

9 The director mentioned Xu Zheng in the list of credits. Yang Qing and Xu Zheng are good friends. After Yang Qing told the story about the movie at Xu Zheng's house, Xu Zheng came up with the name "Hot Pot Hero" at that time.

There is also Hu Ge in the acknowledgment list, because director Yang Qing once chose Hu Ge to play the second male lead Xu Dong, but later Hu Ge's "Good Time" and "Hot Pot Hero" collided on the shooting dates , had to miss it.

The group fights in the 10th film came from the onlookers of director Yang Qing. He said, "In Chongqing, group fights are too common. I often sit on the balcony and quietly watch a bunch of people interacting with each other downstairs. "Cut it."

10 The art of this movie is very good. The art director is called Lin Mu. His representative works are "Double Food", "Killing Life", and Lu Chuan's version of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". The photography is also very cool. The director is Liao Hui, whose representative work is "The Future Will Be Unspecified".

The posters that appeared N times in 11 Dongzi Hot Pot Restaurant, and the logo on the wine bottles they drank were all "Jiang Xiaobai". Jiang Xiaobai in Chongqing is about equal to Erguotou in the north, extremely soft and popular. Without losing the characteristics of Chongqing elements.

12 The three of them, Liu Bo, formed a group before, called "Shabaping Grasshopper". They practiced singing "The Lost Love Front Alliance" by the Grasshopper band in the school factory. The song's title is also It was written on a photo of the three of them. This song hints at the situation of three teenagers at that time, falling in love with the same female classmate and falling out of love at the same time. It also pays tribute to Grasshopper and the youth born in the 1970s and 1980s.

The ending song of the 13th movie is called "A Song That Doesn't Exist in the World", which was composed and sung by Zhao Yingjun himself. The reason why it is called "The Song That Doesn't Exist in the World" is because Yu Xiaohui mistakenly recorded the "League of Lost Love Front" by the Grasshopper Band as "The League of Losers", and the original Xu Dong, Liu Bo, and glasses in the movie were indeed positioned. The image of a loser. The lyrics were filled in by director Yang Qing, and each sentence can be compared with the plot and mood in the movie.

14 When Yu Xiaohui told Liu Bo her past memories, Bach's "Aria on the G String" was chosen as the soundtrack because this piece of music can bring people a feeling of memories of their hometown.

15 Regarding the element of hot pot in the movie, Chen Kun gave a deeper philosophical meaning, which is the life at the bottom. "Liu Bo has never been a Loser, a loser, and a hero. What kind of life should a person live, bleak or positive? This is a problem that must be solved by the protagonist's inner world."

16 Liu Bo and Yu Xiaohui got together to eat hot pot once or twice. Once in the air-raid shelter, it was underground. Happy and dispersed. The second time, at the end of the film, they moved the table to the rooftop. The scene was bright. Several people were talking and laughing, talking about preparing to open a hot pot restaurant again, and even sang the song "The Alliance of the Lost Love Front". The two scenes, dark and bright, sad and laughing, form a strong contrast. After experiencing this bank robbery, everyone found the life they wanted to live, and there was no longer hesitation, confusion and confusion in their hearts.
