Hello, everyone. Is Aaron Kwok himself the painter in the movie "One like you"? Is the real painter not Chow Yun Fat, but Aaron Kwok?

From the flashback at the end of the movie "Warrior", we can know that Wen Li, the accomplice of oral crime in front of the police, is the "painter", the big boss of the counterfeit money manufacturing gang. This is the official answer given by the film's director and screenwriter Zhuang.

In The Warrior, the relationship between the protagonist Wen Li and the painter is the core clue of the film. Only by understanding their relationship can we really understand this film. The following is analyzed from three levels: double play, psychological line and female connection:

Double hero story: The BUG of Wenli version of the story needs to be filled by the "painter" version of the story.

Story Structure Reference: Common Doubts

Viewers who have seen The Warrior will surely find that there are many doubts and questions about the crime story that the hero Wen Li told the police. For example, why is Wen Li so close to the painter, and why is Xin Wen Li involved in the robbery and responsible for the paper source?

These doubts, Li asked, are either brushed aside in the narrative, leaving many strange shots and lines, or ambiguous, making people wonder whether there is such a thing.

In fact, the structural design of A Warrior and The Common Suspect is very similar, both of which are a series of crimes that a pretentious person told the police under the leadership of a powerful and mysterious boss.

But usually the "holes" in the suspect's story are obvious-through the criminal files behind the police office, the cups used by the police and so on. Only at the end of the film, "Warrior" gives a set of flashbacks, and through the way of image dislocation, Wen Li and "painter" finally "merge into one".

From the perspective of time and motivation, Wen Li's version of the story was conceived little by little in prison.

Psychological line: Wen Li and the leader "painter", or a person's dual personality.

Character setting reference: Fight Club

Deducing the reason from the result, if Wen Li is the result of "painter" in A Warrior, then Wen Li played by Aaron Kwok is actually an extremely complicated character, so complicated that it is suspected that a person has a "dual personality" with different personalities.

In the role setting, Wen Li is a poor boy who pursues artistic dreams but has repeatedly hit a wall. Because of the success of loving my girlfriend deeply, I chose to break off my love and join the counterfeit money business. In a series of subsequent events, Wen Li showed kindness, ideals and love. He was a rational, fragile and sensitive intelligent genius.

"Painter" was born in a counterfeit family and shouldered the heavy responsibility of revenging his father and reviving his family business. Therefore, he has a lot of manpower and material resources, and dares to challenge criminal gangs and arm real guns and knives. In the whole fraud, he showed mysterious, thoughtful, heartless and affectionate personality characteristics, and he was a combative and even abnormal leader.

The strong contrast between the strong and the weak finally synthesizes a complete text, just like the male master in Fight Club, which has both the weak character and the crazy personality.

Female connection: Zhang Jingchu, representing the dream, represents the real Feng Wenjuan.

In Wen Li's complicated heart, there is an unreachable dream-Ruan Wen, which symbolizes his perfect inner pursuit; There is also a close reality-Wu, which symbolizes his incomplete inner portrayal.

In the story of Wenli Edition, the protagonist Wenli was trapped in the clutches of counterfeit money manufacturing gangs because Ruan Wen played by Zhang Jingchu was controlled by "painters". He is a woman he can never have.

In fact, Ruan Wen didn't know Wen Li at all, but he was an unknown neighbor of Wen Li when he was studying fake paintings abroad.

Wu (Feng Wenjuan), rescued by the "painter", usually looks weak, hesitant and obedient. At the critical moment, he can shoot gang members without hesitation and pretend to be the painter Ruan Wenbao to explain Wen Li. She is the real-world woman Li asked about.

In the end, the disillusionment of Wen Li's dream became the fuse of Xiu Qing's disillusionment with love. Through the complex relationship between Wen Li and two women, it indirectly supplements some hidden contradictions in the relationship between Wen Li and "painter", and also highlights Wen Li's complex character and personality.
