Compared with the box office results of less than 100 million yuan in the previous film, as of last night, the cumulative box office of the second film has nearly 200 million yuan. The details and easter egg settings that abound in the film have triggered the "analysis fever" of movie fans. Morning News reporters interviewed film director Lu Yang and other main creators to restore a true and complete "Embroidered Spring Knife World" for everyone.

Hot discussion: developing feelings for the two female protagonists

Zhang Zhen: I liked it without much thought

Three months before the first story, Shen Lian, played by Zhang Zhen, was still the male protagonist. Combined with the plot of the two female protagonists who both had true love in their hearts when they met Shen Lian, looking at this beautiful and powerful brocade-clothed guard, female fans quipped: "Why would there be a woman in the world who doesn’t love Zhang Zhen and uses him as a spare tire?" For such an "unscientific" setting, Lu Yang admitted that he only wrote about the girl Shen Lian likes from his own perspective, and it was impossible to consider what kind of girl Shen Lian should like from the perspective of a girl.

Shen Lian’s feelings for Yang Mi’s Beizhai and Liu Shishi’s Zhou Miao Tong, Lu Yang said, were more of a compensation for Zhou Miao Tong at first, "because he caused her suffering, and he felt that saving her was a relief. How and to what extent the love happened later, Shen Lian’s heart is not very clear." Zhang Zhen himself also agreed with this "hindsight" trait, "Shen Lian didn’t think so much, he liked it all the time, he is uninhibited but very focused on emotions." For Beizhai, he felt that Shen Lian only admired each other’s paintings at first, and after getting along, he unconsciously developed feelings for this character.

To the surprise of many fans in this new film, Shen Lian also joined the army of "stroking cats", and the character of "shit shoveling officer" instantly made this character a lot more cute. Lu Yang said that he only felt that Shen Lian was too lonely, so he added a friend to him. "Cats have nine lives, I hope Shen Lian can do the same."

Hot discussion: The actress’s acting skills are not online

Director: Yang Mi is the most suitable candidate

When the first film was released, many fans expressed dissatisfaction with Liu Shishi’s "godless acting skills", while many people expressed "worry" before the release of the second film, which features Yang Mi, who is controversial and has his own traffic, as the core character Hokusai. Now, judging from the effect of the finished film, although some fans still complain about her acting skills, some critics say that the film has captured Yang Mi’s beauty, which is her best performance on the big screen in recent years. It is reported that in order to perform in the best condition, Yang Mi stopped the TV series "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles Peach Blossom", which was filmed simultaneously as a producer and star, and did not return to the "Three Lives" cast until all the Hokusai scenes in the film were completed.

As for the female lead casting, Lu Yang, as a director, always insisted on his own opinion, "It should be said that Yang Mi is the most suitable candidate for this role and this movie." He did not mind others commenting on his straight male aesthetic, "My ideal woman is tenacious, does not need to rely on male help, and has a strong and independent consciousness, not as a male accessory."

Hokusai strung together the plot, and the relevant setting was also complained by the fans "logical offline", especially before the end of the movie "Why did the escape team not cross the suspension bridge and then cut the bridge to escape" Bug constantly questioned. In this regard, Lu Yang explained: "The scene of the bridge weighs 9 tons, and when there are pursuers and interceptions in front, Shen Lian needs plenty of time to complete the cutting work, and when he finally cuts the bridge, he can only succeed when the three masters of Lu Wenzhao, Pei Lun, and Ding Baiying join forces to cover."

Hot Discussion: The film does not explain the ending

Director: Life and death are open possibilities

In addition to the male and female protagonists played by handsome men and beautiful women, the "Embroidery Spring Knife" series is best known for its shining supporting roles. In the second part, Zhang Yi’s Lu Wenzhao and Liu Duanduan’s Chongzhen Imperial Capital are amazing. These characters who pursue their own Tao form a sentimental figure for the audience.

One of the most impressive is the highly comic Pei Lun. In "My First Half of Life," Lei Jiayin played Chen Junsheng, the "cheating ex-husband," which people love and hate, while in "Embroidery Spring Sword 2," the seemingly evil-tongued "Lord Pei," who is both brotherly and foodie, turns the audience cute. According to the film’s producer Zhang Ning, he did not agree with Lei Jiayin’s role of Pei Lun at first, "The costume drama actor must have a small face like Brother Zhen, right?" As a result, it was this role that gave the audience the biggest surprise after the film was completed. "Act cute" in the play, and Lei Jiayin is also full of laughs outside the play. He revealed that he also formed a "small group" during filming, called "Two Kings and Two Ers". The members are himself, Xin Zhilei (as Ding Baiying), Li Yuan (as Ding Chong) and Wu Qiang (as Lingyun Kai).

These wonderful characters add icing on the cake to the film, and the ending of the film does not clarify their final ending. Whether it is life or death, Lu Yang said: "In the original script, except for Shen Lian, they all died, but the actors didn’t want to get the bento, so we didn’t have a death shot, and there are open possibilities." Ding Xiu, who interrogates the whereabouts of his junior brother "Jin Yichuan" in the final Easter Egg, is a popular supporting role in the previous film, and the plot of the Easter Egg is seamlessly linked to the first installment.

As for the third installment, Lu Yang revealed: "If it is filmed, there will definitely be Ding Xiu, and the story of Shen Lian and Ding Xiu will probably be many years later." Zhou Yiwei, the actor who currently plays Ding Xiu, is also preparing for the online drama "Embroidery Spring Blade" that he directs.
