Is there any connection between shinjuku incident and Xu Ye in Wang Shuo's Stubborn Master?

Where did the landlord think that these two people were connected? Besides, which rogue is Xu Ye? "Xu Ye" seems to be the name of a novel by Wang Shuo, which is not the same as hooligans.

You should also read the novel first: Xu Ye is a taxi driver in Beijing, which is totally out of line with shinjuku incident's character background.

Similar to many previous works, Dong Chengyi filmed this shinjuku incident from real news reports. According to Dong Chengyi in an interview, "It was probably 1998, when I read a report in Asia Weekly. At that time, many foreigners came in from kabukicho, and there was a LAM Raymond Hall on the road next to kabukicho. Many gangs gathered and left, all of which were bosses and businessmen. There was a case in a restaurant opposite, and almost all of a person's head was cut off ... "Later, Dong Chengyi collected a lot of information about Japanese culture, gangs, immigrants and so on. The story that spanned many years was condensed in a few years, but it was preserved. It's still those very violent and bloody elements-at the end of last year, there was a post on a Hong Kong version of the forum, which talked about the feelings of watching shinjuku incident at the pilot meeting, and the participants' discussion on the film classification, emphasizing that some scenes were bloody, and Fang Ping, the producer of the film, also mentioned in an interview that if he wants to enter the mainland market, some bloody and violent scenes must be deleted, but these are important parts of the film, and deletion will have a great impact on the film's perception, so it is best to give up the mainland market.
