Chapter 632 Superheroes full of Chinese elements

Hebei Province, Shishi
"Are you ready?"

Ma Yusheng (first appearance Chapter 374), who was putting on shoes at the door, shouted to the bedroom, and then the voice of his wife Qin Xin came.

"Come, come, it will be fine soon."

"Come on."

Hearing his wife's reply, Ma Yusheng couldn't help sighing, turned his head and took off his shoes again, sat back on the sofa and turned on the TV to watch "Lianbo News".

The two of them got movie tickets at 45:15 in the evening. The movie theater is not far away, and it only takes a few minutes to drive. Counting the miscellaneous time, [-] minutes is enough.

It's just seven o'clock now, and according to his past experience, this "soon to be done" should almost allow him to finish watching "News Network".

"...the armed conflict in Syria and its continued deterioration, the Joint Spokesperson calls for calm on both sides..."

Twenty minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and it was time for foreign news reports. Ma Yusheng was bored watching the news, looking at the broken wall on the screen, and sighed a few words from time to time.

Since March, the country of Syria has continued to appear in the international news, but most people do not know about it.

Even in later generations, most Chinese people's impressions of this country are war, poverty, refugees, decoration style, and the inseparable relationship between the national team and the national football team in the world preliminaries...

The Syrian news was over, and Russia's accession to the WTO was being broadcast, and Qin Xin finally came out of her bedroom.

"Are you still free to watch TV? You're going to be late."

"Fuck you, believe it or not, I'm going to the toilet now, so you can experience what it means to be fine right away."

Ma Yusheng offered a big weapon to warn, Qin Xin raised her hand and surrendered: "I was wrong, I finally went out of the world of two people, I have to dress up, so I can make you look good."

"Well, I really didn't make me wait in vain. This dress looks good on you."

"That's right, I picked it specially on the Internet."

Ma Yusheng is well versed in the ways of husband and wife, and Qin Xin is subdued. If he chases his wife and procrastinates on this matter endlessly, the guilt in his heart will immediately turn into grievance and anger, and then he will talk back.

Once the emotions got up, even if the two of them didn't have a big fight in the end, today's rare date would be ruined.

So Ma Yusheng accepted it as soon as he saw it, and instead praised his wife, Qin Xin turned around happily, and left home downstairs with a happy and sweet expression on her arm.

Ma Yusheng's face was indifferent. The two fell in love in 2003 and got married in 2005. During the eight years together, he had already figured out Qin Xin, and he tidied up obediently.

Came downstairs to pick up the car, Ma Yusheng drove to the cinema, Qin Xin called his son who was going to play at grandma's house, and told him to watch less TV.

Speaking of it, the combination of the two is really rare. Ma Yusheng has a good temper and is calm in doing things, while Qin Xin has a gentle personality. Although there are some minor problems, most of them are reasonable.

Both of them are teachers, own a house and a car, have a good income, and have no foreign debts.

The man's parents have small savings, and the woman's parents have pensions. There is only one son in the family, and there are two teachers. Education is not a problem.

Perhaps because of this, they are over [-] years old and have been married for several years. They still have the leisure to throw their children at their parents' house and go to the world of two in a group.

When I arrived at the frequented Fanxing Cinema, the poster wall at the entrance had changed from "33 Days of Broken Love" to "Eagle Eye".

The 6 x 4 meter "Eagle Eye" poster, Cao Xuan and the widow sister are wearing black bodysuits, fighting back to back.

He leaned forward slightly, and the widowed sister leaned back. Cao Xuan bowed to the left and put an arrow on his face. Small bust with Fury and Garfield Andrews.

"This poster is cool."

Ma Yusheng took out his mobile phone to take pictures, and Qin Xin couldn't help but look under the poster and asked her husband to make one for herself.

"Return to Moments."

When the two fell in love back then, although Cao Xuan was not the matchmaker, the "When Men Are in Love" can be regarded as a small assist.

Although Ma Yusheng cried a lot while watching the movie, he really liked the movie later on, and Qin Xin, who already had a crush on Hu Jing, became a big fan of Donggong.

Ma Yusheng is not a fan of Cao Xuan or Hu Jing, but he has a strong sense of trust in Cao Xuan, and this trust has become stronger and stronger with the subsequent good movies.

Nowadays, basically as long as Cao Xuan's new movie is released, unless it is a very uninteresting subject, he will come to the cinema to support it.

Although he keeps saying that he has no special affection for Cao Xuan, he is actually a loyal movie fan.

This time "Hawkeye" was released, he also took the opportunity of the two people's world to take his wife to watch the movie.

Before that, Ma Yusheng had never watched a Marvel movie, and even seldom watched foreign movies, except for "Thor" where Cao Xuan guest starred last time.

Qin Xin, on the other hand, thinks Robert Downey Jr. is handsome, has watched "Iron Man" several times, and is an English teacher, and usually likes to watch foreign movies to study, and has a certain understanding of Marvel and Hollywood stars.

When she got the ticket to enter the arena, she didn't forget to give her husband some science.

"Which red-haired woman is called Black Widow. She is an agent. She seems to have supernatural powers. She is very powerful. She even went undercover next to Iron Man..."

Ma Yusheng didn't know the character setting, so he was confused, but he didn't pay much attention to it, just watch the movie.

Even if it is a series of movies, the independence of the plot must be considered. Even audiences who watch this series of movies for the first time will not be affected too much.

When they arrived at the theater, the couple found their seats, watched the advertisement, and the movie officially started——

A circus with the style of the last century, with loud voices in front, a strong white man whose face cannot be seen clearly is performing magic arrow stunts, and two teenagers in the corner of the stage have fiery eyes.

One of the Asian children of the yellow race ran to the door of a house to cook medicine after the performance. Soon after, he entered the room with dark Chinese medicine and shouted in Chinese.

"Master, take medicine."

An old man with white beard and hair appeared in the camera, and many audience members in the theater let out small exclamations.

This old man is none other than Cao Xuan's master Li Xuejian, and he can be regarded as a little easter egg in the movie.

There is also a small easter egg in the movie "Childhood Eagle Eye" is Wu Sanshi, but this kid is not very famous now, maybe some people think it looks familiar, but it is not to the point of other well-known child stars.

In the movie, the old man drank the medicine and couldn't hide his weakness. He lay on the bed and looked at the apprentice lovingly, and also read the words in Chinese.

"Recite it again, the formula I taught you."

"...the innate qi, the source of good fortune, that is, the primordial qi that has not yet been judged, the infinity that has not yet opened the chaos, and the Tai Chi that generates all things...All things come into form from the infinity, and they are actually the root of the world...The way of life, only That's all..."

After the apprentice finished reciting a section, the old man nodded in satisfaction, and then earnestly instructed.

"Son, remember this formula. When you condense your qi, you will be Kun... ahem, you will be the true successor of Kunlun."

"call……"

A figure suddenly woke up from the bed, Hawkeye played by Cao Xuan sat silently on the bed, with a vague expression, somewhat reminiscent and thoughtful,
"Qi!"

The opening plot of more than two minutes gives a lot of information, especially for domestic audiences, it still has a lot of impact.

The reason is naturally that it is full of Chinese elements.

The news of Cao Xuan playing Hawkeye spread to China at that time, and many people were discussing it, and even expected whether Cao Xuan's superpower would have Chinese elements such as kung fu.

However, this expectation was quickly broken. Someone did a popular science on Hawkeye. From the setting point of view, this superhero has no Chinese elements.

Even though he has a master called a swordsman, in fact this swordsman is white in the comics.

Of course, there are also a small number of people who think that Cao Xuan is cast in this role, which is already very different from the original manga, and there will definitely be an adaptation.

However, this is only the speculation of a small number of people, not the mainstream idea.

However, now that the finished film is out, it proves that this guess is correct. This "Hawkeye" indeed has Chinese elements added because of Cao Xuan.

Even if you don't know what innate qi is, any Chinese will understand the secret scriptures passed down by the white-bearded old man in seconds, and the "Kunlun" mentioned is also linked to the mysterious direction in the eyes of Chinese people.

Originally, most of the audience who were only looking at Cao Xuan cheered up. Many people have seen superhero movies, but this is the first time they have seen superheroes with Chinese elements.

However, the subsequent plots did not show too many Chinese elements, but mainly followed the plot.

Another familiar acquaintance, Fan Xiaopang, appeared, playing the role of Hill to convey the mission to Cao Xuan, and at the same time set the settings for related movies that were not well understood from the lines and dialogues.

Among them, the S.H.I.E.L.D. is mainly introduced, which is roughly a special force that deals with various strange events. It has great authority and ability, and there are countless elite agents under it.

And there are two trump cards among these agents, one is Russian-born female agent Natasha, nicknamed Black Widow, and the other is Chinese-American agent Clinton Tang, nicknamed Hawkeye.

Because Hawkeye joined S.H.I.E.L.D. relatively late, his level is lower, only level seven.

In principle, he should be under the command of Director Fury, Deputy Director Hill, eighth-level agent Coulson and even his partner Black Widow.

But in fact, except for the special Black Widow, only Fury can barely command him, and everyone else can only discuss it. Because Hill is Chinese, he is relatively closer to him, so he is the main contact person.

After introducing the setting plot, I directly undertook "Thor". At that time, Hawkeye was recalled by S.H.I.E.L.D. because someone attacked a certain base of S.H.I.E.L.D. with the intention of snatching the Rubik's Cube.

Because from the analysis of the battlefield situation afterwards, this group of unknown enemies is not weak in combat effectiveness, and there may even be a super villain.

So S.H.I.E.L.D. sent out its ace partners, Hawkeye and Black Widow, to find out who was behind the scenes and solve future troubles.

The three of them explained clearly the setting of the plot and the introduction of the main line of the movie, and the movie slowly opened.

Because it is not clear who is behind the scenes, the first thing to do is to find out who did it.

The S.H.I.E.L.D. has some clues. On the day the Rubik's Cube was robbed, a gangster in New York seemed to have some suspicious behavior, which may be related to the attack.

Black Widow has already gone to investigate, Hawkeye came back from New Mexico, figured out the mission at Hill, and rushed over directly.

So, when the movie was about 10 minutes into its release, the heroine, Widow Sister, finally appeared for the first time.

Like the female assistant in "Iron Man 2", the widow sister is also a make-up scout in "Eagle Eye", dressed like a young lady, dressed in cool and sexy clothes, and sneaked into the gang stronghold.

The drunk gang leader came over and started to move. The black widow, who wanted to collect information in a low-key manner, couldn't help shaking her head, then grabbed the leader's hair and smashed it to the ground.

There was a loud "bang", and many viewers couldn't help touching their noses, it hurt too much.

Realizing that something was wrong, other gang members rushed over one after another, and then staged a personal fighting show of the black widow.

There is one thing to say, the fight of the original Marvel movie Black Widow is not particularly good-looking.

The widow is not a professional action actor, and since she is a girl, her movements have no sense of power. Sometimes she struggles with some strong men.

So after Cao Xuan took over a certain amount of action guidance work, he made some changes with Marvel's action guidance.

Continue to strengthen Black Widow's original assassin style of play, give up the display of some powerful moves, reduce hand-to-hand combat as much as possible, play more skills, use various tools, supplemented by naked twists, kicks and other actions.

After such rectification, the fighting style of the Black Widow is smarter and fiercer than the original Marvel, and has a certain lightness and beauty.

Strictly speaking, this is a bit contrary to the role setting of the Black Widow, because she is also a superhero with strong strength and physical strength, so she is not afraid to be tough with those strong men directly.
But the key is that a role is a role, and an actor is an actor. Since it can't be reflected, let's use our strengths and avoid weaknesses.

The strength and ability of the Black Widow can be reflected in some other places, but the fighting design is still focused on the assassin style, giving priority to the brilliance and completion of the action scene.

Therefore, under Cao Xuan's careful design, the widow's action scene was played very smoothly and beautifully.

Especially when everyone was knocked down in the end, the black widow took off her wig, flicked her red bangs, she was so heroic, and she commented in one word——

A exploded!

The male audience felt shabby watching it, and the female audience couldn't help staring at it. This appearance definitely left a deep impression on the character of Black Widow.

Back to the plot, the Black Widow got the information in the safe, and was about to leave with the unconscious leader.

Suddenly the warehouse door opened, and a burst of strong light came in. The black widow was out of consciousness, and rolled to hide behind a wall post, and then there was an overwhelming strafing.

A large number of gang members, under the command of another gang leader, set fire to the black widow.

The Black Widow fought back with guns and knocked down a few, but the difference in numbers was too great and they were firmly suppressed by the firepower.

Seeing that the situation is getting more and more dangerous, the Black Widow is planning to risk her life to break through.

Suddenly, the leader who was yelling and directing to surround the black widow froze, looked down, and saw a sharp arrow pierced through his heart.

If he didn't turn his head to remind the others, a few more sharp arrows would shoot over, and the gangsters next to him would all be hit by the arrows and fall to the ground.

At this time, a figure in tight black uniform finally appeared outside the warehouse door, it was Hawkeye played by Cao Xuan.

Hawkeye carried a quiver on his back, holding a bow in his left hand and nocking an arrow in his right hand. He shot at least three arrows at a time, one step at a time. Every time he hit the arrow, at least two people would die. However, his eyes were indifferent from the beginning to the end, as if he was holding an arrow. The god of death who harvests life with a bow and arrow.

"handsome!"

Like the fast and accurate archer in the movie, like a harvester, several people fall down when he raises his hand, and his pace is always unhurried, which makes him have an extremely elegant charm.

Every man has the dream of becoming a hero, and Ma Yusheng is no exception.

But before that, he fantasized about being a swordsman, killing one person in ten steps, never stopping a thousand miles away, full of chic and chivalry.

However, the eagle-eyed role of Cao Xuan made him feel the charm of the archer for the first time.

Of course, the gangsters would not be shot by him stupidly. After the initial sneak attack, they soon discovered him and turned their heads to focus on output.

At this time, Hawkeye couldn't resist the bullets hard, so he dodged to dodge, and then began to use the terrain to shoot at the gangsters.

But this time, in addition to the normal bow and arrow, he also used black technology arrows.

Explosion + electric current + high temperature burning, combined with his precise archery, almost one person is equivalent to a small army, and under his cover, the black widow successfully broke out of the encirclement, grabbed a rifle, and cooperated with Hawkeye to harvest gangsters.

The Black Widow is good at marksmanship, but she was caught fire just now, and then pressed in one place and couldn't get out. In addition, she only had one pistol in her hand, so she could only be beaten passively.

But now she is given enough depth space and favorable terrain, and a strong teammate to cover.Equipped with improved firepower equipment, the combat effectiveness of the Black Widow has soared, and she successfully saved her respect.

The two ace agents teamed up, and the gangsters who were killed fell into disarray and fled in all directions. The black widow captured two people, knocked them unconscious, and prepared to take them back to ask for information.

On the way back, Hawkeye was a little dissatisfied with Black Widow's early action, thinking her actions were too reckless.

Of course, even though he said he was afraid of making mistakes, any fool could tell that he was worried about the safety of the black widow.

"It was just an accident."

Black Widow understands Hawkeye's intentions, but she is also arrogant. She never thought that a gangster would be so well-prepared. As soon as she made a move here, she got a letter there, and then a large number of people came to support.

When the two Tsundere were together, they couldn't tell the difference between right and wrong in many things. They bickered all the way, but when they interrogated the gangsters, they still cooperated tacitly.

And this kind of double arrogant personality, many female audiences especially like to knock.

What you see is hard-talking and soft-hearted, falling in love and killing each other!

Qin Xin was very happy. Bingshan Archer x Leng Yan female agent, instantly fill in hundreds of thousands of words.

Returning to the plot of the movie, this scene is mainly a fight, which is also to consolidate and shape the two characters, and at the same time give the audience some visual stimulation.

After that, the story began to return. After interrogation, the two quickly found the lair of the gang, and learned that the gang had a boss behind the scenes, and the previous changes were also directed by the boss, but only the boss knew who the boss was.

In this way, the task is simple. The two plan to sneak into the lair, get the boss out for interrogation, and catch the mastermind behind the scenes.

However, there was too much movement before, so they made a fool of themselves this time, and the boss of the gangster hid, but Hawkeye found an old friend.

Barney.

That is, one of the two little boys in the circus at the beginning of the movie, who can be regarded as the youngest of Hawkeye.

When they were young, they both learned from the two masters of the circus [Swordsman] and [Jieshe], but because Hawkeye is Chinese, he got the true instruction of swordsman, and Barney only learned a little superficially.

The latter [Quick Shooting] treats everyone equally, but Hawkeye is the person with the best bow and arrow talent that he has ever seen in his life. Although Barney has also learned some skills, he is far different from Hawkeye.

Later, when the two became adults, Hawkeye traveled with [Jitshe], and Barney also left the circus. Later, by mistake, he joined the gang and became a small boss.

The two brothers hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, but it didn't affect their relationship.

In Black Widow's evaluation, this is the first time she has seen so many smiles on his face since she knew Hawkeye.

And Barney is also a loyal person, at least to Hawkeye. Knowing Hawkeye's purpose, he decided to go undercover and help him find out the location of the boss.

With his help, Hawkeye and Black Widow finally caught the boss and learned the real behind-the-scenes-Dr. Egghead.

Just as they contacted S.H.I.E.L.D. to arrest people, Dr. Egghead, who had sensed that something would happen, took the lead in sending Crossfire and Master Mimic to kill them.

The decent and the villain set off a wave of climactic battles in the mid-term position.

The strength of the two villains is not weak, crossfire can offset Hawkeye's archery to the greatest extent, imitating the ceiling of master fighting skills, Hawkeye and Black Widow are not his opponents.

In the end, the two sides repelled the villain by virtue of their tacit understanding and heart-to-heart combos, but Barney was killed by crossfire in order to save Hawkeye.

In most movies, the arc of the characters is essential. This arc can be understood as a shining point, or it can be understood as diversity, but it should be more about growth, or the changes of characters in the plot.

Take Marvel's personal movies as an example. Most of the protagonists have character arcs.

For example, in "Iron Man", Stark went from a playboy to a warrior Iron Man who saved countless lives.

Steve in "Captain America" ​​goes from a skinny recruit to a superhero who fights corruption.

Thor in "Thor" was impulsive and reckless, after being tempered, he was later recognized by Thor's Hammer and became a qualified god king.

These arcs have character aspects, strength aspects, and both.

Hawkeye is the last item. Although he was already very good when he appeared on the stage, he still added the powerful enemies of imitation master and crossfire, which made him form a trough, and then inspired Qi to complete his growth.

At the same time, the death of Barney Jr. also made his personality more prominent, and he paid more attention to the people around him and his comrades-in-arms, which itself is also a kind of growth and change.

With troughs and growth, the role of Hawkeye can also be relatively three-dimensional, and at the same time it can arouse the emotions of the audience.

For example, in the decisive battle later, Hawkeye and Black Widow played two against three, especially when he used arrows to kill crossfire and avenge Barney, which aroused the comfort of many viewers.

What also feels enjoyable is the subsequent confrontation with the imitation master.

Wonderful fighting is one aspect. The key point is that the imitation master beat Hawkeye before, because he copied his fighting skills, almost any move Hawkeye made would be countered by him, until Hawkeye comprehended [Qi].

Master has internal strength, be silly.

The same fighting technique, under the boost of qi, is several times more powerful, and Hawkeye broke through ten times with one force, holding the imitation master under the hammer.

The routine of suppressing first and then raising has been used countless times in countless novels and film and television dramas, but as long as it is refined enough, it will still be favored by audiences and readers.

Especially for Chinese audiences, [Qi], a superpower with Chinese elements, combined with the ancient boxing + ancient swordsmanship in the movie, gave everyone a special sense of refreshment.

Even if there is a suspicion of YY, but thinking about the Chinese superman beating up the American villain, how can it not make people feel happy...

ps: Witnessed history again...
