More and more afraid to understand peerless Hong Kong dramas.

Unexpectedly, there will be many people so close to Buffett one day.

Because the stock market.

His old man lived to be 89 years old and only saw five major stock market crashes (the last one was the global financial turmoil of 1998).

And in March 2020, in 10 days, we witnessed it with him four times.

As we all know, Buffett is called the "stock god" the most.

But there are always people who advance wave after wave and think they can become gods.

I don't even seem to have seen a movie.

Or seen it, but always thought it was just a play.

And it.

Not far away, with a kind of desolation that seems to see through past lives-

Great times

Douban's highest score in Hong Kong drama, 9.3, has never been surpassed.

Classics in classics, inevitability in coincidence.

Even if you don't buy stocks, non-shareholders can be strongly shocked by the program.

Behind the tie between Ding Xie and the stock market crash is a helpless fact-

The wisdom about desire comes from repeated tragedies.

Fortunately, this is just a difference.

completely

"This is baa era? Great times! " It's the line of this play.

At that time, it was also a big era for TVB.

The lineup is first-class

Almost gathered the most legendary and capable TV stars.

"Qiu Guan" Adam Cheng played the villain for the first time and only time;

"Amazing Wutai Mountain" Lan Jieying plays Liu Qingyun's stepmother (only two years older than Liu Qingyun in reality);

"Jade Girl" Vivian Chow is one of the few TV series starring;

In the future, the famous "killer nurses", Tao Dayu and Lin Baoyi, will only play supporting roles in 1992.

……

The pinnacle of drama.

The "famous scene" we are talking about today cannot sum up the "crazy" strength of the following scene.

If you dare to shoot the first episode, you can press yourself in front of the TV for psychological "rubbing".

Ding Xie (played by Adam Cheng) and his four sons (collectively called "Five Crabs") lost the stock market on the "Great Miracle Day" in 1994, and their wealth plummeted from 5 billion to debts 100 billion. They ran to the roof of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and committed suicide by jumping off a building.

Just won the opponent's Zhanbo Fang (Liu Qingyun), sitting in my office, drinking champagne, see Ding Guwu father and son have fallen, the mood is too complicated to count:

"One, two, three, four, one more."

Accordingly, Zhanbo Fang has portraits of his father, stepmother and three sisters on his desk.

He succeeded. Pour the wine and talk.

There is another scene.

It's from a TV series.

Four Ding Gu brothers threw Zhanbo Fang and his two sisters off the balcony one by one to help their father Ding Xie vent their anger.

Fang was lucky to catch the obstacle and not die, but her sister died tragically.

Correspondingly, when Ding Xie jumped off the building, he was also entangled in the wire and did not die.

A vicious circle, revenge will be reported.

Cold and sharp.

Thanks to him.

Who is it?

Wei Jiahui.

95 years later, Wei Jiahui turned to movies, formed a "Galaxy Image" with Du Qifeng, and began to expand the territory in the field of gangster movies, achieving countless classics-

Birth of prefix, flower of darkness, real hero, goodbye A Lang. ...

△ "Dark Flowers" stills, "Big Times" is the last TV series starring Liu Qingyun, and the 2000 "Heaven Punishment" is actually a sequel.

It can be said that they all cut the projection from Big Times more or less.

Copulation between good and evil, violence, disillusionment of love, tearing of friendship ...

The young man is very angry.

Wei Jiahui's nickname in the TV series is "Wei Xiaobao" because he doesn't play by the rules.

Afterwards memories:

Although "Big Times" could be released and even become a classic, it was absolutely possible to shoot half of it at that time, and TVB stopped internal censorship. If a director or actor complains that it is too cruel, it may not be filmed.

Artists are bold.

When Wei Jiahui conceived the film, he didn't know how to film the stock market at first-several stockbrokers shouted stock prices and trading in the exchange. How can they shoot well?

The breath of the times is there, but it seems to be some vulgar and unexpected scenes.

Suddenly one day, Wei Jiahui thought of a scene-

A father lost all his money in the stock market and knocked his sons down one by one.

He is so excited that he is absolutely sure that this is the first game.

As for, why did this father throw it? What happened before throwing it? Wait, Wei Jiahui's idea was.

Take your time.

It can be said that the birth of Ding Crab was earlier than the great era.

An evil age, wicked people.

"Killing and setting fire to the golden belt, repairing bridges and roads without bones" is his famous saying. Later, it was also used by Huang Qiusheng in Infernal Affairs 2.

This role plays an important role in the whole work, which is manifested in:

When the ultimate concept villain is established, it forces the screenwriter to create more group images with high concept and outstanding personality.

A demon king is surrounded by a group of demons. These demons are the sons of Ding Xie who did bad things, and even another part of Zhanbo Fang's soul.

When the evil reaches the extreme, there will be something extremely bitter, sad and beautiful in the world, which will form a strong contrast and complete the balance-Ling Jie played by Lan Jieying.

The logic beyond reality and the highly concentrated desire ecology make the works have a certain allegorical physique.

This is why today's audience will still feel shocked and worried when they reread "Big Times", but it is difficult to ask, is it true or not?

Of course, at that time, the actors were at their best and had to violate the routine.

At first, the role of Ding Xie belonged to Wan Ziliang, who was a big shot. How could he think of Adam Cheng and Chu Liuxiang?

Before Zhanbo Fang, Liu Qingyun gave the impression that he was a fool. How can he play the "Count of Monte Cristo", a stock market genius?

There are also many TVB vases, and they also find textures other than beauty, such as sadness, bitterness and tenacity.

The chemical effects are all caused by Wei Jiahui's "abnormal" casting in the role of "abnormal".

Then stimulate the audience through a series of stormy plots to accept the settings.

It can even be said that "Big Times" is to draw the audience together to create:

Ask for money or die, and everyone is in danger.

dog

We must focus on catching dingxie.

Zhanbo Fang is a paranoid, obsessed with the stock market, ignoring his two confidants.

But in Sir's view, to fulfill the protagonist's revenge mission, this role is still "character".

Where are the diced crabs?

It can penetrate the plot and affect the stock market in real life.

It can only be said that Adam Cheng and it achieved mutual success and completed an inhuman "super body".

Many people may have heard that the role is taboo to be flat and conceptual.

In short, the complexity of writing characters.

Good people have evil thoughts, and bad people have compassion.

Dante crab is very different.

His paranoia is written into every nerve.

It goes without saying that you are uneducated, vulgar, violent and arrogant.

I said, "I don't think you are a relative. I must have fought back."

As soon as the camera turns, the person who offended him has already broken his head.

All I can think of is "I think" and I won't have feelings for others.

Like his feelings about love.

When his wife didn't come home, he thought it was vanity and refused to live a hard life with her.

Luo (Lan Jieying) has repeatedly said that she doesn't like him and wants to leave him.

He firmly believes that:

You're just coquetry and proposing to me.

Living in your own fantasy, you always think that you are right and everyone else is wrong.

If you don't introduce Adam Cheng as Ding Xie, you will definitely think that such a super-class figure is: fabrication, nonsense, mental derangement.

But we don't scold writers for writing too much.

Why?

Because he was born for another more extreme environment, the stock market.

What is the stock market in the play?

In short, it is a slaughterhouse of desire that no one can recognize.

There are people like Ding Xie, what's so strange.

People are very mediocre.

Expansive desire, however, makes people extremely evil.

Can a wicked person with a single-line thinking like Ding Xie really fight in all directions in the stock market and spend more than 100 million yuan a day?

The greatness of Wei Jiahui is here-

He told us.

It is such a person who can kill all sides in the stock market.

Pay attention to Wei Jiahui's "teaching method" given to Ding Xie by the stock market tycoon Chen Wanxian-

This is a magical market. The less you know, the more you earn.

I didn't understand it, so I misinterpreted it.

And misinterpretation is the king of the stock market-people abandon me, run counter to each other, and never talk about logic.

Ding Xie's "Five Crabs Group" went public with no performance and no assets, but wanted to take the opportunity to make some money in the stock market and leave.

Ding Xie begged Chen Wanxian to give him more advice.

Chen Wanxian perfunctory him and scolded him for two paragraphs.

In a word, "many people died, but I didn't see you die" (so many people died, why didn't I see you die).

Another sentence is "pour water on the ground" (dig a hole and bury yourself while the soil is still soft, so as not to lose face).

Two obviously insulting words were misunderstood by Ding Xie as the "stock market bible" taught by Chen Wanxian.

His understanding is that when the stock market is rising wildly, he would rather sell his stock at a low price and wait for the stock market to plummet and make a fortune.

This kind of play is obviously the work of a madman-the stock market has hit record highs and shows no sign of falling.

But as always, he blindly believed in himself-

Chen Wanxian told him in the first sentence that even if everyone dies, you can't die;

The second sentence is to dig a hole, but not for yourself, but for others.

As a result, 1987 witnessed the first global stock market crash. The stock market suddenly overflowed 400 points from 3992 points, and everyone jumped off the building. Only the "Five Crabs" made a big profit of 400 million.

The second time, he sold his company's stock from 1.8 yuan to the closing price of 1 cent, and absorbed it while it was low. As a result, he earned 2 billion a day.

Chen Wanxian, a veteran of the stock market, heard that she had made a lot of money in two stock market crashes, which really suppressed serious internal injuries.

The "Ding Crab Effect" has since become famous-

Whenever a TV series starring Adam Cheng comes out, the Hong Kong stock market will inevitably plummet.

Madness triumphs over science, and desire stifles morality.

In the face of Ding Xie, all the experiences about getting rich were declared unsolved.

Because the stock market in Wei Jiahui's story is actually a reflection of people's hearts, and it is a twisted and unreasonable purgatory.

Here, there is only reincarnation.

Chen Tao (the illegitimate child of Chen Wanxian), who lost to Ding Xie twice, graduated from a famous American school and used various mathematical and statistical means to calculate the stock market.

Finally, I have to tell my little friend a story-

The moral is obvious-

The dog's "language talent" is barking, not summing up.

You can count, you can count, it's no use.

You let a dog come to the stock market and beat you in minutes.

The so-called graduation from a famous American school is not as good as an illiterate ding crab in stock trading.

Ding Xie was born for the stock market.

He fully understands the operating rules of the latter:

Mercenary, devoid of human nature.

There is only one "truth": existence is reasonable.

And the stock market is the epitome of the times.

Wei Jiahui's interpretation has come, and the so-called big era is also the scene where the desire ecology is pushed to the extreme.

The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.

win

If "Big Times" only shows the devil's behavior, how to crush the audience's common sense and even values can only be regarded as a cool drama.

Classic, not only because it directly and nakedly shows you how the stock market devours human nature.

But also because it gives you hope in twists and turns-

After watching the play, the audience can feel the horror of hell and realize its falsehood.

Finally, it is the feeling of crossing the darkness and returning to the world.

The devil is born in hell, and hell is born in people's hearts.

The stock market also has two sides. It is a killing knife, but at the same time, it is also a living sword.

Just like the property market, although it is crazy, the original intention of buying and selling houses is only to hope that residents have their own homes.

The original intention of the birth of the stock market is to help good companies that really need money to raise more funds.

Wei Jiahui has not forgotten this starting point.

Fang (his father) and he were originally partners, but their personalities were completely different-Chen Wanxian pushed the stock market to the edge of speculation, constantly approved the listing of junk stocks, and watched the stock market bubble grow bigger and bigger.

Then take the opportunity to sell and let a large number of retail investors go bankrupt.

How did Fang break?

He managed to find the three giants at that time-Wei Jiacheng, He Xinhe and Guo (homophonic Li Ka-shing, Stanley Ho and Henry Fok), and wiped out the stocks sold.

Stabilizing the stock market made Chen Wanxian lose his hand and was forced to resign as the chairman of the exchange.

What is the purpose of this plot?

In fact, it indirectly expresses Wei Jiahui's "advice" to crazy investors.

The stock market needs to serve the real economy.

No matter how big the stock market bubble blows, it ultimately depends on the support of the real economy.

If you want to get rich, you have no idea who the real winner is.

This layer of intention, Wei Jiahui repeatedly explained.

This recruit, Zhanbo Fang also used.

The last battle of the finale.

1992 Persian gulf war, ding Xie intends to repeat the same mistake, selling stocks on a large scale and shorting the stock market.

The stock market is ruthless, and no one has ever had the luck to win all the time.

Falling can bring wealth to Ding Xie or push him to the abyss.

Zhanbo Fang did the same thing as his father's hair-

Because of Fang, Wei Jiacheng, He Xinhe and Guo bought stocks in a big way. The Persian Gulf War lasted only a few hours, and Hong Kong stocks rebounded against the trend and reached a new high.

This is the beginning of the first episode. Ding Xie lost 5 billion yuan, but he was in debt10 billion, and was forced to jump by his son.

This time, it is no longer "many people died, but I didn't see you die."

It's really "taking the best advantage of the land and raising a good grave."

The stock market has two sides, and there is hope in hell.

What about that guy?

Are stock market predators and rescue talents really completely clear two-level opposites?

Ding Xie, who didn't die, finally went to prison and told Zhanbo Fang a dream of his own-

At first glance, it seems that Ding Xie will never repent.

After careful consideration, I can't help but marvel at Wei Jiahui.

Ding Xie and Zhanbo Fang are actually mirror images.

For the first time, Zhanbo Fang was thrown downstairs instead of dying. His sisters died tragically.

This time it was Ding's turn to kill his son and live by himself.

The Story of the Rich and the Slave is the satire of Ding Xie's exhibition;

You and I are the same kind of people.

In fact, this is also a satire on another exhibition.

Ye Tian, the master of Fang Zhanbo, taught Zhanbo Fang a set of "stock trading passwords" before his death. The translation is like this:

"The original intention of the stock market is to make fund-raising investment have its place, the society is prosperous, everyone earns, people are greedy, exhausted their minds, take advantage of it, heaven becomes purgatory, blood becomes a river, killing endlessly, countless people lose their lives, and winners lose their conscience and personality. He has been in the stock market for decades and has never seen a real winner. "

There are no real winners.

Yes, even Zhanbo Fang.

His two favorite women, Ruanmei and Long Jiwen.

Ruanmei had a heart attack, and Long Jiwen (Guo Aiming) lost hundreds of millions because his father bought in the wrong direction in the stock market. He died of a heart attack and eventually turned against Zhanbo Fang.

Once you enter the gambling game, everyone is just a crab.

The wind and waves are out of control.

In an era of winning or losing, only when Mr. Wang dares to speak can people feel that hope is exhausted and unbearable.

Now the stock market roller coaster, let netizens start to dig out this line-

Starring Liu Qingyun.

20 1 1 year, death benefit.

The background is another stock market crash.

Within 24 hours, gangsters, robbers and bank employees were wrestling around the "windfall" of10 million.

10 million can save lives and kill people.

There is such a golden sentence about the stock market and stocks in the movie:

What is a stock? Small and wide, lever and lever.

Who has really seen the stock, but everyone wants to buy it.

It's not hard to see that it's just invisible stock.

Ten million visible and tangible bills are tender and affectionate-although they are hot, they may also bring endless troubles.

But it is precisely because it is true and valuable that several people hold their heads high and fight with each other in poverty and despair, showing the vitality of some people.

And "life-saving money" actually refers to invisible and intangible stocks.

It has only calculation, trap and despair.

There is an ironic detail in this.

The stock market crash came, and the whole people cried miserably.

Even life in the black society is very difficult. When the abdicated boss was in prosperity, the birthday banquet was 60 tables of dragon and lion dances, and now it is six tables of fasting.

When the eldest brother enters the police station, the bail depends on begging for alms everywhere.

I can't take it anymore. I quit.

This triggered a chain chase of "eating black".

Dramatic underworld is still the case, not to mention ordinary employees, housewives and the elderly.

The indiscriminate crushing of the stock market crash can be seen.

For people, managing desire is a lifelong practice.

Greed flashes out, and there is a thin line between hell and heaven.

What human nature staged in the great era may be a "watching him build a tall building, entertaining guests, and the building collapsed."

It may also be just the daily fireworks of the "small bridge flowing water".

Ye Tian's last sentence in "Stock Code", I believe you still remember:

Smart people should know that this is a battlefield that will never win, and it is also the only way to win. ...

"Leave early" is four words!

Leaving doesn't mean failure.

Just for the sake of a crazy era, put an end to it.

There, there is the most thrilling killing in modern society, but there is no sword.

Money kills people.

But since it is fate, who can really get out?

This is also life.
