Ding Zhi faced the expectations of so many viewers and made a grand appearance. Naturally, he would not just come out to show off.

Different from the gloomy and weird atmosphere that has continued from the beginning of the film to the present, and even in private prisons, Gao Jin, played by Ding Zhi, is almost pathologically meticulous in dressing up, and then reveals his temperament from the inside out.

It's too clean and tidy, but it seems a bit out of place in the whole film that looks a bit "dirty".

Ding Zhi did not use any lines, nor did he even use too many movements. In fact, he started with some very subtle body language, eyes and even micro-expressions, but all the audiences present felt his almost rigid "herbiphobia".

” and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

So much so that when filming, the director at the time, Zheng Rui, actually liked to take close-ups of him to capture his subtle expressions and movements.

Ding Zhi's current performance cannot make the ordinary audience feel "Wow, the acting is good" at first glance, but it can make the character's characteristics come to life as quickly as possible in a smooth and silent way.

Get it by the audience.

It's a level that has begun to vaguely touch upon "great work but no luck".

In fact, this is somewhat different from the wide-open and wide-open performances presented by both the protagonist and the villain in ordinary Hong Kong movies, especially ordinary action movies. However, under Ding Zhi's interpretation, it strangely does not form a problem with the overall style.

Split.

In the first meeting between Gao Jin, the warden, and Ajie, the protagonist, one was suppressed by the prison guards and knelt down on the ground. The other took off his coat, revealing a neat and tidy vest underneath, with a straight waist and a straight spine.

Straight, very leisurely, he held the tampered suspect information in one hand and a cigarette in his mouth. Along with the smoke in his mouth, he softly exhaled a sentence.

"It's you now."

He was condescending, but he didn't appear arrogant. He was clearly framed and imprisoned, but he seemed to be pronouncing justice. He had the power and indifference to judge life and death with one sentence.

In comparison, Wu Jin's angry screams and roars seemed a little weak, as if they had been suppressed from the top down.

Here in the subtleties, you can actually see that Ding Zhi’s acting skills are almost the best in the field. Whether it is Wu Jin, who has been on the set for many years, or Tony Jaa, who is an action superstar, he is basically crushed in literary and drama.

share.

But this kind of crushing actually fits the current scene to a certain extent, and it seems just right.

Of course, as the protagonist, Ajie cannot be so "aggrieved". He rose up to resist and struggled to bring down the two prison guards who suppressed him. The other protagonist, Tony Jaa, also entered the scene here.

At this time, the three "protagonists" in the promotional poster finally appeared in the same frame.

This also provides the most intense fight in "Greed Wolf" so far.

The two protagonists Wu Jin and Tony Jia began to fight each other, and Ding Zhi, who was "reduced" to a supporting role at this time, although he was only accidentally caught by the camera, still has an attraction to the audience that cannot be ignored.

He was seen leaning against the table. Even though he saw such a fierce fighting scene, he only watched with interest. Even the cigarette held in the corner of his mouth did not shake off the ash at the end.

The feeling of control that arises spontaneously is like watching two crickets fighting in a jar.

In the end, Wu Jin, who was in poor condition, was severely punished by Tony Jia, who explained to everyone what "the worst protagonist" means.

But obviously, perhaps subconsciously, everyone knows that the protagonist must be immortal. Many people don't seem to pay much attention to this. Instead, they are interested in Ding Zhi, who has always had a "high-energy" feeling since his appearance.

——"He is indeed handsome!"

——"Indeed, although it doesn't feel quite right, I always feel that the warden's appearance is very touching..."

——"No, I thought Ding Zhi would have a fight scene! Why just watch Wu Jin and Tony Jia fight!"

——"You are stupid! How can the big BOSS start fighting as soon as he appears? The younger brother must go first..."

——"That's not right! Shouldn't the big boss be that Mr. Hong..."

Not far from Ding Zhi, several people began to discuss in low voices again.

However, their whispers and discussions somewhat affected the viewing experience of others. Maybe they were "attracted", or maybe they themselves realized that something was wrong and gradually silenced them.

The plot is still going on.

In prison, Ajie, as the destined protagonist, naturally could not sit still and die. He secretly caused trouble and started a prison riot just to make a distress call to Hong Kong Island.

This prison riot scene is actually a rare one-shot scene that lasts for more than four minutes.

This scene required the director to have considerable on-site control and coordination. Even so, it took them nearly a month to shoot the scene, and the effect was explosive enough.

During this riot, the alarm sounded and alerted the warden, and the audience finally waited for the warden played by Ding Zhi to take action for the first time.

Facing the prisoners who went crazy during the riot, the warden showed a gloomy expression for the first time. When he came out, he turned around 360 degrees and kicked the two tall prisoners easily to death.

past.

"Wow!"

A low-pitched exclamation broke out from the audience.

There was no way, even though the audience who came to watch the movie had already known that Ding Zhi was good at fighting, and also knew that Ding Zhi also had wonderful fighting scenes in this movie, but when they really saw Ding Zhi's crisp and neat skills, they still felt

You can't help but be amazed.

Ding Zhi, who was sitting in the middle seat, also raised his eyebrows. In fact, this extremely beautiful action was one of the few scenes in the whole scene where he needed to use Wia.

As mentioned before, Li Zhongzhi, the action director of "The Greedy Wolf", designed Ding Zhi's movements in this film to be more elegant and showy.

The degree of flying and staying in the air is beautiful, especially this kind of almost dazzling action. In reality, it is actually very difficult to complete by human power alone, and it is even more impossible to achieve in actual combat.

Of course, actual combat is actual combat, and movies are movies. It is undeniable that although this action is a bit unrealistic, it really achieved a blockbuster effect.

You knew it from the exclamations in the audience.

The focus of this scene is always based on Wu Jin as the main perspective, and as the warden who takes action for the first time in a real sense, he also "splits" many shots.

Compared with Wu Jin who deliberately erased some routines and appeared more like ordinary but practical fighting techniques, Ding Zhi's strikes combine the ferocity of Bagua Quan, the fierceness of Baji Quan, and the short strikes of Wing Chun.

Inch strength, and the flexibility of free fighting itself.

The ancient martial arts moves are easy to pick up, but they are not just limited to the moves, and the visual effects are extremely beautiful.

Among them is the design of action director Li Zhizhong, which also incorporates many of Ding Zhi's own ideas.

In particular, Li Zhizhong was amazed by many of the suggestions put forward by Ding Zhi.

Li Zhizhong even jokingly said to Ding Zhi at the time that if he couldn't make it as an actor, he could make a living by joining him as a martial arts instructor.

On the screen, Ajie and Tonyja, played by Wu Jin, were still fighting. While they were fighting inextricably, they used a set of dazzling but powerful fists and kicks to defeat the warden Ding who was a group of rioters.

Zhi, jumped down from the building, aimed at Ajie's head and trampled down expressionlessly. It seemed that in the next second, the protagonist Ajie's head would be crushed like a watermelon by this thunderous kick.

Come on.

At the critical moment, it was the prison guard Achai who pretended to accidentally kick Ajie, so that he could avoid his vitals!

After suffering numerous injuries, Ajie finally chose to surrender.

But the protagonist Ajie's goal has been achieved. At the end of this scene, he successfully used the mobile phone that came along to send a distress signal to the distant Hong Kong Island.

At the same time, Chen Guohua, who was far away in Hong Kong Island, was on his way to rescue him personally.

——"It's so...amazing."

——"This film is so awesome, and I feel that Ding Zhi is actually as good as any other movie star."

——"What does it mean not to be weaker than? Those so-called beating stars may not be able to beat Ding Zhi in reality!"

——"Tony Jaa's Muay Thai is also very fierce, and Ding Zhi's style is a bit like the strictness of the Once Upon a Time series in the 1990s, but it seems to be more powerful!"

The short four-minute shot showed the director's profound control skills, but ordinary audiences could not see this. On the contrary, it was the crisp and neat action scenes that made them talk about it even more.

Here, the plot enters a soothing stage and enters the family line of the other protagonist, Thai prison guard Achai.

After Ding Zhi contributed a wonderful action scene for the first time, he seemed to have "hidden" again.

It wasn't until police officer Chen Guohua, played by Simon Yam, was arrested that Ding Zhi appeared again. At this time, he restrained his edge and gave up the stage to Mr. Hong, who rarely showed his ferocious color!

In fact, a large number of viewers came to watch this film because of Principal Hong Yegu.

After all, Principal Gu is one of the rare "young" generations in today's Hong Kong film industry who can still carry the banner.

Although this "young man" is nearly 50 years old.

However, unknowingly, a lot of the presence of the real big BOSS has been taken away by the little BOSS played by Ding Zhi.

And this is also one of the few scenes between Ding Zhi and Simon Yam in this film.

Speaking of which, last year, Ding Zhi and Simon Yam collaborated in a pseudo-"two-hero movie". Now the roles were reversed, and Ding Zhi became the one who "held" the initiative.

However, even if the audience watching the movie saw the two people's rivalry, no one would think of "The Hunt" and feel that it was a drama.

Obviously there is a reason why the veteran actor Simon Yam performed well, but on a deeper level, it is indeed because Ding Zhi played a completely new role this time.

This is also Ding Zhi's specialty, where the special skill of "character wrapping the actor himself" comes into play.

The plot continues to unfold step by step.

In fact, the plot of "Greed Wolf" is not anything new. It is just a story about a ruthless yet wise and brave Hong Kong police detective + a prison guard from a private prison discovered by his conscience. The two heroes fight alone in a dark lair.

But action movies are enjoyable to watch.

It is also mixed with the family line of Thai prison guard Achai. Achai's daughter is suffering from leukemia. Because the blood type is rare and no matching donor can be found, his daughter's life is in danger. It happens that the undercover Ajie played by Wu Jin is

Matching donor.

After discovering his conscience and various reasons for his daughter's illness, Achai betrayed the villain camp of the warden and saved Ajie and Ajie, but in the end he was involved in it.

And the undercover Ajie, who had been feeling aggrieved for almost a whole movie, finally cheated. Taking advantage of the absence of warden Gao Jin, he went through five levels and killed six generals, went straight to Huanglong, and captured the sick Lord Hong.
