Chingmy Yau real estate

In 20 10, an old man in Canada died of illness.

At the time of his death, the name of the old man was still on the wanted list of the Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption, and the wanted list was invalid until the news was confirmed to be true.

This wanted order was issued in the early 1970s.

In the early 1990s, Xiang Huaqiang Brothers followed the lean film trend brought by the lame Hao and made a set of biographical films about the elderly.

Empresses in the Palace is divided into two episodes, although it is a follow-up work, but the box office adds up to 53 million. Although it is a follow-up work, its influence is worse than that of the lame Hao.

The film is The Legend of the Mayor, starring Andy Lau and Aaron Kwok.

The prototype of its protagonist, the mayor, is the aforementioned old man-former Governor Lv Le.

Inspector Hua, as the name implies, was the highest position of Chinese police in the Hong Kong police system at that time, and then there was nothing wrong with the Chinese, all of whom were British.

Like Lame Howe, the theme of The Legend of the Mayor is very sensitive, because the protagonist is either in prison or wanted.

In Lame Howe, producer Johnny Mak, who has always been famous for his "daring", had to print the title: "This film was filmed without the consent of Mr. Wu Xihao (the prototype of the character). It is purely coincidental that there are imitations, innuendos and other plots in the film. I apologize to Mr. Wu for not causing inconvenience. "

Similarly, when filming The Legend of the Mayor, Lv Le agreed to shoot the film only after the Xiang Huaqiang brothers were related to him, but he resolutely refused to allow the film to use his real name.

Andy Lau himself has never been to Lv Le, which also makes Lv Le very unhappy.

After becoming an ordinary person, Lv Le's temper as a "big brother" has not changed.

At the beginning of The Legend of the Mayor, the mayor answered the instructor's question like this before graduating from the police academy:

If he can join the police, he will become like this in the future.

The attitude of the film is neither left nor right, but on the issue of corruption, which makes people feel that the mayor is powerless. This is the case.

For example, at first he despised corruption in the police, but while insisting on himself, he was gradually marginalized.

While working hard, I offended the big boss at that time.

(The role of Tong Yan is based on Xiong Yan, the last of the four detectives at that time, but Lv Le himself is very dissatisfied with it, because he feels that Xiong Yan has never been an equal with him, but only his minion. In contrast, Ng Man Tat's footman role in many movies is just like Zhan Sen's.

Because when the police refuse to go along with others, they can't get along, are excluded, and even cause great disasters.

You have no money to marry a wife, and even your future father-in-law looks down on yourself-you are a policeman and don't even take black money. How do you make money to support my daughter?

After all this, fortunately, an old-timer played by Uncle Shrimp enlightened me in this way. This enlightenment is not chicken soup for the soul, but:

Finally there is such a mayor!

The film is based on Lv Le, but how similar it is to the fact is still unknown.

I believe that the story of this film is pure fiction, and if it is similar, it is pure coincidence, but I think this sentence in a Hong Kong film is a great invention of China's film censorship system, which is not much better than Golden Scissors.

Only in the abnormal environment of the Hong Kong police at that time, there was no way out without corruption. Even if this is wrong, it is hard to say that Lv Le did something wrong.

Because in the era of Lv Le, Hong Kong's police system was the largest underworld organization in Hong Kong.

Under the collusion of Chinese detectives, gangsters and foreign superintendents, the police force is more corrupt than any industry.

When Lv Le himself first joined the police force, he climbed into casual clothes step by step from other places, and his ability was excellent.

However, even foreigners' superiors make money, and if they are not greedy, they will not be promoted at all. If they just can't get promoted, forget it. If they don't agree, they will basically sentence you to be disabled in the police.

Sometimes, I don't want to collect money. I want to give you money. You can't do without money.

In this sense, it is actually a problem of the whole environment and system. After all, at that time, firefighters had to collect black money to put out fires.

At that time, an anti-corruption department was set up in the Hong Kong Police Force. However, before the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, this anti-corruption department became one of the most corrupt departments in the whole police force.

Biography of the Mayor did not avoid this background at that time, but in this background, the mayor was portrayed as a figure like a gossip and a white face.

The white part of gossip is mostly white, but there is a little black in the middle.

Therefore, the mayor in the movie is basically a perfect image except for corruption, including handsomeness:

After becoming the chief inspector of China, it is necessary to rationally distribute the proportion of money collected, so that the whole underworld order and corruption system can be orderly;

He is also willing to take on his ex-girlfriend who has been separated for many years and bring his son back;

More importantly, all the women around him have a deep understanding of the important principle, and the big one should accept the small one, and the small one's willingness to quit will not affect the mayor's life;

Always take care of your younger brother, but always be brave and resourceful to your opponent.

I don't know if this image was the pressure exerted by Lv Le himself at that time.

But one thing is certain, it was really difficult to make such a lean film at that time.

As far as the subject matter is concerned, these lean people are either in prison or in seclusion, and most of them still have wanted warrants, so it is difficult to truly reflect their lives in the movies.

What's more, although these bosses are no longer in Hong Kong, their relationship in Hong Kong is still deeply rooted, and that force is still there. If the film company wants to film them casually, it will be in trouble. Under such circumstances, who dares to slap them around?

Therefore, those who dare to shoot this kind of blockbuster are all film companies with certain background ability; Dare to shoot, are inconsistent with the facts of the joke.

For example, Lv Le himself thinks that the legend of the mayor is inaccurate. For example, when the police took the police cap to collect the protection fee, Lv Le felt very disgusted: "How can the police collect money like this, like a beggar?"

Lv Le himself is called "500 million inspector", which is a great title, but that is 500 million! 500 million in the fifties and sixties!

Of course, this $500 million is just a rumor, but at the age of 48, you can retire early. Lv Le lives a carefree life by collecting rent and real estate assets under his name, with astronomical assets.

Before the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, Lv Le established a black-and-white corruption system and formed a corruption ecological chain. Lv Le's power once reached an unparalleled peak in Hongkong:

If the new police chief doesn't go to Lv Le in person, Lv Le will relax the work of solving crimes and give the other side a hard time until the chief personally visits to petition.

As long as senior police officers talk about police work with Lv Le, they won't talk about work with others. At the high-level meeting, Lu Yue was arranged to sit in the front row.

When dealing with the underworld, Lv Le said, "There is no need to arrest people personally. If there is a case to be solved, just talk to the boss of Tangkou! "

From this, it can be seen that the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) was of great significance at that time, and ICAC played an important role in turning the police in Hong Kong from a mess at that time into what it is today.

Before the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), the Hong Kong police also implemented a rotation system, hoping to curb corruption in this way. Therefore, Lu Yue once exchanged places with Lan Gang, who was later the same as the four detectives.

However, this system was counterproductive at that time. Without supervision, the power of the police can not be controlled, which provides new opportunities for corruption and accelerates the expansion of the whole corruption chain.

After the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), when these bosses realized that Britain was serious this time, they began to flee.

Since the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) in 1974, nearly 20 corruption syndicates have been dug up in the police force in the two years since 1976. Those who retired before seemed to get away with it, but many people ended up miserable.

Some people, deprived of their pensions, can only remain anonymous after being wanted for a long time; It is conceivable that some people who fled abroad could not come back because of their language barriers. Most importantly, their property is frozen, and even if they can use it overseas, they have to be afraid to spend money because they don't understand local laws.

Just as Lu Yue lived in Taiwan Province in his later years, he lived in seclusion.

Lv Le, who lives in Taiwan Province province, likes to have tea with former subordinates and detectives who also live in Taiwan Province province, including Ceng Zhiwei's father Qirong Zeng (in money empire, Eason Chan's role is based on Qirong Zeng).

Unlike celebrities with unlimited scenery in Hongkong, Lv Le in Taiwan Province kept a low profile and rarely went out in his later years. He only went to Renai Hospital for physical therapy, and even his hair was cut in the barber shop in the basement of Renai Hospital.

Lv Le's neighbors didn't even know that the old man was the famous "500 million detective".

In any case, despite following the trend, Lame Howe and Legend of the Mayor are both representative works of lean films in the golden age of Hong Kong films.

The lineup is absolutely luxurious. Andy Lau and Aaron Kwok played the role of father and son, while Qin Pei, Ng Man Tat and Jin Yezi Kwan Hoi-san performed well, and Kwan Hoi-san won the Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Male Matching.

The heroines are Chingmy Yau, the muse of Jing Wong, and Sharla Cheung, one of the representatives of Hong Kong actresses.

Although one of the film producers is Jing Wong, he seldom sees nothing.

At the same time, Andy Lau's role in it spans a great age, even surpassing Lv Liangwei in Lame Howe.

What's more, I don't have to say much. In Hong Kong movies in the 1990s, The Legend of the Mayor even played an important role in Hong Kong film biographies. Although the second half of the second part is a little overwhelmed or not full, the relationship between Andy Lau and Chingmy Yau is still very touching.

Especially in the end, when Chingmy Yau was dying, the scene where the mayor wanted to meet a family of three still moved me.

In the film, Mayor said, "Do you know what you are working so hard for? In order to eat. "

He said that he had been doing it all his life.
