What are the highlights of "Beijing Meets Seattle: A Love Letter"?

The movie "Beijing Meets Seattle" that hit both the box office and word-of-mouth many years ago has not completely faded out of people's sight. "Beijing Meets Seattle: A Love Letter" (hereinafter referred to as "Beijing Meets Seattle") "Love Letter") came with the east wind again, dominating the 51st stage, and the momentum was unparalleled. This sequel, directed by Xue Xiaolu, starring Tang Wei and Wu Xiubo, and starring Qin Pei, Wu Yanshu, Wang Qian, etc., although the title still uses the IP "Beijing Meets Seattle", in fact, the place where the film takes place has been moved. To Macau, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, London and other places. However, the theme of "meeting" has never changed - meeting you, meeting him/her; meeting love, meeting love.

In a sense, human life is a process of "encounter". If family ties are destined by nature and do not require "encounter", then friendship, love, friends and partners are the products of "encounter". Meeting the right person at the right time can make a huge difference in your life. And if you meet the right person at the wrong time, the wrong person at the right time, or the wrong person at the wrong time, your life will change in a thousand ways.

In the movie, Tang Wei and Wu Xiubo also have an "encounter" process. Jiaoye, played by Tang Wei, is a public relations officer at a Macau casino. Here, she "met" the academic tycoon Lu Yi, the wealthy Wang Zhiwen, and the literary Qing Zufeng one after another, and had an ambiguous and ambiguous relationship with them. Daniel Daniel, played by Wu Xiubo, is a real estate agent in Los Angeles. In the process of selling real estate, he "accidentally" fell in love with Grandpa Lin and Grandma Tang, an old Chinese couple who have immigrated for decades. During this period, Jiaoye and Daniu became connected again over a book. Jiaoye's filthy words and full of grievances not only failed to frighten Daniel, but Daniel responded with a professor's spicy tone and carefully enlightened him. The original "enemies" gradually built a boat of friendship. As time goes by, the two of them transform, and a giant ship of love gradually takes shape.

"Beijing Meets Seattle" is a relatively pure love movie. With a box office of over 500 million, it was the highest-grossing domestic love movie at the time. However, in addition to love, "Beixi's Love Letter" obviously has more and more connotative thematic elements. For example, the specific process of "encounter" between Jiaoye and Daniel is the process of their continuous transformation and nirvana. Jiaoye immigrated to Macau with her parents since she was a child. After gaining experience in casinos, she also got the name Jiaoye because of her ruthlessness, hotness, madness and dominance. She also longed for love while living with her father's girlfriend. That's why she seemed so hungry when she "met" academic tycoon Lu Yi, rich man Wang Zhiwen, and poet Zu Feng. Finally, due to various reasons and difficulties, I gave up. In the process, Jiaoye also gradually understood what he wanted most.

On the other side of the sea, Daniel Daniu was melted by the sincerity of Grandpa Lin and Grandma Tang because of his little tricks in the process of buying a house, and achieved his own salvation. After having an epiphany in life, he also saved a domestic top student. This young man, as young as a young man, was forced by his mother to immigrate to Los Angeles and was forced to attend a key middle school. But he was not happy because the mother he wanted could not give him. What his mother arranged for him was something he didn't want. Fortunately, Daniel appeared in time and pointed out the direction for his future. Daniel Daniel not only saved himself, but also saved the child, and more importantly, he also saved a family that was on the verge of collapse because the relationship between mother and child might collapse.

The self-salvation of Jiao Ye and Daniu proceeds simultaneously, and this synchronization originates from the exchange of letters. While studying the letters, Jiaoye understood his true self. That's why she killed her ambiguous relationships with Lu Yi, Wang Zhiwen, and Zu Feng with her own hands one after another. While Daniel was enlightening Master Jiao, he also gradually discovered that there are actually things more important than money in this world. That is love, love. The homesickness and simple love between Grandpa Lin and Grandma Tang deeply moved Da Niu, and gradually activated his feelings for his hometown and aroused his desire to return. You know, before this, he had not returned to his hometown for 20 years.

Jiaoye’s life seems unfortunate but is actually lucky. In life, she met her father's ex-girlfriend (Hui Yinghong); emotionally, she experienced the academic tyrant Lu Yi, the rich Wang Zhiwen, and the literary Qing Zufeng. Although they are not male gods, and they are not lacking in scumbags, they all played a significant role in Jiao Ye's maturity, growth and transformation. Daniel is lucky. After 20 years of defrauding clients with real estate, he finally met his "happy friends" Grandpa Lin and Grandma Tang one day, and an epiphany in life occurred spontaneously. The luck of Jiaoye and Daniu still lies in that book and those letters. It is those words soaked in the fragrance of ink that refine their past, temper their lives, and finally enable them to achieve phoenix nirvana and welcome a new life.

Grandpa Lin and Grandma Tang are also lucky. Because they met Daniel, they were able to overcome their homesickness and realize their homesickness. The rich man Wang Zhiwen is also lucky. This luck is not only reflected in the casino, but also in his interaction with Jiao Ye, who gradually realized that money is not everything, especially for some women. With this understanding, he will have to avoid many detours on the road to seeking true love. That child was also lucky because he was able to be his true and happy self after "meeting" the great Daniel. Meeting the right person, whether at the right or wrong time, can make all the difference in life. As the saying goes, it is better to meet you on the road than to meet you on the road.
