Shortly after Lin Xin won the award, "Xun" was released.
The box office of this film is the worst among the films starring Lin Xin, but the reviews are overwhelmingly good.
The reason for the poor box office is that many people thought the plot was too sad and dared not watch it. Many people watch movies just to relax and do not like to spend money to buy something heavy in the cinema.
The plot of this movie is too gloomy and dark, good people don't get good rewards, and bad people don't get bad rewards. In order to pass the review, the crew also added more scenes for the police, saying that the police comrades also did their best.
This dedicated scene was once reported in the news, where a policeman entered the village to collect evidence and was kidnapped and detained. This was also the reason why the special police were called in.
In the video, the policeman was beaten by the villagers and then tied up and locked in the cellar. He was bruised and unconscious. Because the plot ended abruptly when the special police entered the village, the situation of the two of them was unknown, and it was unknown whether they were alive or dead.
The plot was obviously darker, but it was approved. Lin Xin was quite surprised.
With this incident, the people became even more angry.
Even the police and the law can't do anything about these people, so what should we do? How can we eradicate these cancers?
The audience also understands that the law does not punish the masses. When the people of a village work together to commit evil, should all of them be imprisoned? Even if they can be arrested, sentencing requires evidence. Because the whole village is shielding each other, the police cannot find evidence when they enter the village.
There is no surveillance here, and all traces of crime are cleared up by the entire village. They even give false testimony to each other. Not to mention that the bodies have been destroyed, even if the bodies are found, the police cannot find out who the murderer is.
Even if they knew that the murderer was in the village, even if they knew that everyone in the village was giving false testimony and covering up for each other, they could do nothing.
Not guilty. Without evidence, who are you going to arrest?
Therefore, the police would sneak into the village at night, find the women and children who needed to be rescued, rush in and handcuff themselves together with the people who needed to be rescued, and then wait for a large force to arrive to rescue them.
Some of these policemen were beaten to a pulp, some were disabled for life, and some were even killed by the cruel villagers. In order to protect the "property" of the whole village, the villagers had a strong anti-reconnaissance awareness. There were patrols every night, and it was not easy for the police to sneak in.
Even though technology is so advanced now and Skynet covers almost every corner of the city, there are still many difficulties in rescuing abducted women and children.
After all, there are always some corners where light cannot reach, and after all, there are always some human natures that are so evil that ordinary people cannot imagine.
The last Easter egg of the movie is an interview with the director of the Anti-trafficking Office of the Ministry of Public Security. He talked about a problem. Because the Skynet is becoming more and more developed, fewer and fewer women and children are being robbed or deceived, especially fewer and fewer cases of child abduction. Most of the children "commodities" in the trafficking gangs that have been eliminated are sold by their biological parents.
Giving birth and selling children has formed an industrial chain. Sometimes they transport mothers instead of children, making it extremely difficult to crack down on them.
And even if there is a crackdown, the rescued children will have nowhere to go.
Some viewers who have not paid attention to the anti-trafficking campaign find it unbelievable. Biological parents voluntarily sell their children? Even tigers do not eat their own cubs, so why can humans be so evil?
But they recalled the incident of a transnational underage prostitution gang that made headlines a year or two ago. In that incident, it was also said that many children were pushed into hell by their parents.
Human nature can really be so evil and terrible.
One audience member laughed and said, "After ten months of pregnancy, a boy can earn 40,000 to 50,000 yuan, and a girl can earn 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. This is much more profitable than farming. You have to give birth as soon as possible and sell the baby quickly, because this is money you spend on your youth. The sooner you give birth, the sooner you can get out of poverty. The sooner you sell the baby, the sooner you can get rich."
Isn't this a good way to get rich? No cost, high returns, how cool.
This movie has become a hot topic online. Many parents with children said that they couldn't sleep at night after watching it, and woke up in the middle of the night to check if their children were still alive. Some female netizens also said that they were so scared that they bought alarms and knives online, fearing that a gangster would rush out from somewhere, knock them out, and sell them to the scary village in the mountains.
Many people did not believe the stories described in the movies at first, but when they searched online, they found that many of the plots in these movies were adapted from real events, and the real events were even more terrifying than those in the movies.
For example, if someone in the village dares to "tell on someone", he will be retaliated against and tortured to death by all the villagers afterwards.
This is the family law, this is the village rule.
It is hard to imagine that there are still such ignorant and cruel places in China now. However, there are indeed such ignorant and cruel places in China now.
Some radical netizens said that these people are of no benefit to the country or society, so why not just kill them all?
Of course not. The value of life is not based on the value that people can create. Others have no bottom line, but we cannot have no bottom line, and society cannot have no bottom line. If we cross this bottom line, we will also become demons, and the whole society will become hell.
The only way to change this situation is to improve the law, continue to combat crime, and alleviate poverty.
Only when economic poverty alleviation is successful will they accept ideological poverty alleviation.
When the granaries are full, people know etiquette; when they have enough food and clothing, they know honor and disgrace. This is a truth that has been proven from ancient times to the present.
But the thought of letting these beasts go, making them rich, and teaching them to become "human beings" still makes me feel upset.
But the reality is so unfair.
Shang Qiuping, who played the leading female role in the drama, secured her position as a "new little flower" because of this movie, and the label of a powerful actress was firmly attached to her.
When she was interviewed, she couldn't help showing a look of fear when she talked about the acting process in the crew.
"To say that my acting skills are good is really flattering me." Shang Qiuping said, "In fact, it's all because Brother Lin explained the play to us so terribly."
The host said, "Terrible? Isn't it too good to be true?"
Shang Qiuping showed a frightened expression and said, "It was scary. He gave us a lot of real-life event materials and asked us to study them carefully... not only the written reports, but also pictures and videos. I was so scared that I almost couldn't sleep at night. When I was acting, the scary scenes in the reports kept appearing in my mind, so it's not that my acting is too good, but I was really scared."
The host didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "So, isn't Lin Xin too much?"
Shang Qiuping forced a smile and said, "Brother Lin paid for a famous psychologist to sit in, so... it's not too much. Now that I think about it, maybe that's the state of getting into the role? Looking back now, this state is really terrible. But this state is very common among actors at Brother Lin's level. Since my debut, I have been praised by fans and friends, and they say how good my acting is. Acting with Brother Lin, I can clearly see the gap between myself and the real powerful actors, and I feel a little frustrated. I'm still far away. I'm glad that I have this opportunity to act in this play with Brother Lin and the powerful seniors in the circle, and I can realize my own gap. I will work harder."
The host said: "Congratulations, you will definitely succeed."
Shang Qiuping said, "Thank you for your good words."
After the show was broadcast, Shang Qiuping gained a wave of fans. As for Lin Xin's acting skills, many people in the industry praised her, and everyone became numb to it.
Now someone has come out and said that Lin Xin’s acting skills are not good, and that these acting skills are all exaggerated by others, which made netizens excited.
As the topic of the movie became more and more heated, the government also took advantage of this heat to publicize the achievements made in recent years in fighting against human trafficking. The movie also appeared in several official news reports. With the official government propaganda, the box office of the movie began to slowly recover.
Although most people said they couldn't bear to watch it a second time after watching it once, the movie was so popular that people who hadn't planned to watch it decided to watch it. It was as if if they didn't watch the movie once, they would have nothing to talk about with the people around them.
After watching this movie, I began to worry about the country and the people again, and I started to make comments and talk nonsense, as if I had become a big shot who criticized the current social ills.
Of course, such people are only a minority. Most people still watch this movie with good intentions to see the ignorance and darkness in this civilized society.
When the movie was removed from the shelves, Lin Xin had already been invited to become the spokesperson for the Ministry of Public Security's anti-trafficking public welfare campaign.
Lin Xin now serves as the spokesperson for Hope Primary School and anti-trafficking campaign, and is working at the forefront of public welfare and charity.
By the way, not long ago, he also donated 10 million Chinese yuan as a fund to establish the "Lin Xin Mathematics Award" to encourage young mathematicians who have made contributions to the field of mathematics in China.
The Wall Mathematics Prize Foundation expressed regret over this.
As for a certain crew, they didn't even dare to fart at this time.
Making fun of historical figures is not something that will be criticized, and the film did not discredit the mathematician. It is understandable that the investor wanted to whitewash his grandmother, and most people would not meddle in other people's business.
But if they want to come out and use Lin Xin to promote themselves, they shouldn't blame Lin Xin for fighting back.

Since its release, the movie "Search" has never faded from the public eye because of the official anti-trafficking campaign. Many plots in the movie have been used as teaching materials in news reports on anti-trafficking campaigns. The police also use this movie as educational material to make the police aware of the many difficulties that will arise in anti-trafficking campaigns.
Such a huge topic, the actors' hard-working performances in the film, and the script that is close to the facts make "Search" the most popular award-winning film at the Jinshui Film Festival.
That’s right, it’s the Jinshui Film Festival again…
When Lin Xin learned the news, he looked frustrated.
In order to get the movie into the Jinshui Film Festival, the director and the CEO of Fengyu both came to Lin Xin and apologized to her.
The reason is simple. If this movie participates in the Yumei Film Festival, Lin Xin will definitely win the Yumei Best Actor Award. In this way, he will have won all three Best Actor Awards.
But the director was unwilling and Fengyu was unwilling too.
The director has already won the Best Director Award at the Yumei Film Festival, and he wants to win the Best Director Award at a foreign film festival;
Fengyu has a good martial arts film participating in the Yumei Film Festival this year. If "Search" also participates in the Yumei Film Festival, there will be a collision. That martial arts film will definitely be squeezed out by "Search". The theme of "Search" also has a great advantage in the Jinshui Film Festival, but martial arts themes are only considered mainstream themes in the Yumei Film Festival.
Even though "Xun" will definitely reap great rewards at the Yumei Film Festival, Fengyu still hopes to take a little risk and gain something from both major film festivals.
This time, the film was made to promote Shang Qiuping. As a newcomer, she had a film that could stand out in a foreign film festival, which was a great qualification. Although the Yumei Film Festival was not inferior to the Jinshui and Oka, in the eyes of Chinese people, film festivals in their own country were definitely better at winning awards than international film festivals in other countries.
Although Lin Xin really wanted to use this movie to fulfill his mission of winning the Best Actor award at the three major international film festivals, he has now learned to think from other people's perspectives.
This movie is not his alone. The director has his own dream, the heroine has her own dream, and the company has its own considerations.
So he agreed.
Fengyu said that it would immediately tailor a movie for Lin Xin to compete for the Yumei Award, but Lin Xin declined.
"There's no need to tailor anything. I'll act in any script I like." Lin Xin said, "Everything is as bad as excess. Just go with the flow."
Seeing Lin Xin's good attitude, the CEO of Fengyu privately said that with Lin Xin's demeanor, he deserved to be a successful person.
It has become a foregone conclusion that "Xun" will participate in the Jinshui Film Festival. Lin Xin has given up his own Yumei Best Actor award for the sake of the overall situation.
The chairman of the Yumei jury privately expressed regret to Lin Xin about this.
Lin Xin smiled and said, "I'm still young. I'll be on the red carpet of the Yumei Film Festival soon. And who knows, maybe one day I'll appear with a work I directed and acted in."
The chairman of the jury encouraged him: "Your first romantic comedy as a director is very good. Practice more. I will wait for the day when you win the Best Director award."
As for the Best Actor and the like, the chairman of the jury felt that he didn't need to say much.
Although it is fair and just, each country's film festival has its own preferences. For example, at a US film festival, if there is a foreign film that is equally good as a domestic film, which one will it choose? For example, at a European film festival, if there is a foreign film that is equally good as a European film, which one will it choose?
Although this trend may seem insignificant to outsiders, it is already huge enough in the eyes of industry insiders.
Just like this Jinshui Film Festival, there is a European film that is also critical of current affairs. Although this film does not describe the problem as deeply as "Looking", the performance of its male lead is very brilliant.
As outstanding as Lin Xin.
Industry insiders have already guessed the final list of winners in advance. It will definitely be "Searching" that wins the Best Picture, and the European actor that wins the Best Actor.
Therefore, as the largest individual shareholder of Fengyu, Lin Xin clearly had enough say in this crew, but he made such a sacrifice, which made the Fengyu board of directors and the director himself feel guilty towards Lin Xin, and they secretly decided to do their best to compensate Lin Xin.
Lin Xin has enough status to make people feel guilty. If Lin Xin was just an actor, not a shareholder of Fengyu, or an investor and director, he could attend any film festival he wanted. Why would he apologize to him and feel that he owed him something?
In the end, the results of the Jinshui Film Festival awards were as everyone expected. "Xun" won the Best Picture and Best Director awards, and Lin Xin missed the Jinshui Best Actor award.
He was also nominated for Mr. Linde, but lost because he was not the lead actor and had too few scenes. With three nominations and one award, Lin Xin's harvest at the Jinshui Film Festival was not disappointing.
It’s just that this time’s failure to be elected made those who understand □□ feel particularly regretful.
Everyone thought that the crew owed Lin Xin an Best Actor award.
The failure of Fengyu's martial arts film to win any prize at the Yumei Film Festival led some media to say, "Fengyu Company sacrificed Lin Xin for its own benefit, but the result was full of irony. If "Xun" had participated in the Yumei Film Festival, with the quality of the films nominated for this festival, "Xun" would have been the biggest winner. Although "Xun" also won the Best Film at the Jinshui Film Festival, Lin Xin lost his Best Actor award."
Some people in Fengyu also felt that they had lost out. If "Xun" had participated in the Yumei Film Festival, it would definitely have won the Best Film, Best Director, and Best Actor awards.
But who would have known that the martial arts film they had placed so much hope on would be a complete failure.
Lin Xin privately said to Xue Fei: "In fact, I have already guessed that the jury of this Yumei Film Festival must be very dissatisfied with Fengyu. I think Universal can consider changing the executive president."
"Search" was originally going to participate in the Yumei Film Festival, and even the PR was done. But in the end, because the response was too good, and Fengyu had another good martial arts movie participating in the Yumei Film Festival, Fengyu decided to submit the best quality "Search" to the Jinshui Film Festival, and let the second-best movie participate in the Yumei Film Festival.
Although the Yumei Film Festival does favor Chinese people and Fengyu's considerations are reasonable, doing so is also a slap in the face of the Yumei Film Festival, giving people the feeling that Fengyu thinks the Yumei Film Festival is not as good as the Jinshui Film Festival.
Even though they knew intellectually that Fengyu was only trying to maximize profits, the Yumei Film Festival jury must have felt uncomfortable.
It's not just the Yumei Film Festival jury, because the director of "Xun" revealed to the media during filming and release that the film would participate in the Yumei Film Festival, and used the gimmick that Lin Xin would win the Best Actor award at the three major film festivals, but later regretted it, which made the Chinese media and fans feel uncomfortable.
Most people have a greater sense of pride and identity with their own country, and the Yumei Film Festival is no worse than other international film festivals. Although I know that Chinese people are more likely to win awards at the Yumei Film Festival, it is still too much to regret it at the last minute.
Especially how much Lin Xin has contributed to this drama, everyone with a discerning eye can see it. Actors all said that it was Lin Xin who brought them into the drama (although it may be a polite flattery, it is indeed what everyone has said), the psychologist in the crew was paid for by Lin Xin himself, the film promotion used Lin Xin's fame, and finally the official also chose Lin Xin as the spokesperson for the anti-trafficking campaign to continue the influence of the film.
Lin Xin had paid so much, and was looking forward to winning the Yumei Award. However, the crew investors, director, and leading actress all wanted to go to the Jinshui Film Festival, so Lin Xin had to magnanimously give up her Yumei Award.
The media said that what he gave up was not the Yumei Film Award, but the possibility of "winning the Best Actor award at the three major film festivals before the age of 30", an unprecedented honor that will be recorded in the history of the entertainment industry and will be difficult to surpass in the future.
After seeing the report, Lin Xin said depressedly: "I still have three years to go before I turn 30... Wait, I'm already 27 this year?"
Lin Xin held her face in her hands in fear. In the blink of an eye, she was already almost thirty years old?
Xue Fei helplessly knocked Lin Xin's head with the newspaper in his hand: "Yes, you are already twenty-seven."
Lin Xin complained: "We are already 27 years old and we haven't held the wedding yet."
Xue Fei was even more resentful: "After getting the marriage certificate, you have been so busy that you have no time to relax and prepare for the wedding. Do you blame me?"
Lin Xin pointed at his nose and asked, "Is it my fault?"
Xue Fei nodded: "Of course it's your fault."
Lin Xin was so angry that he turned his back and said nothing.
Xue Fei suppressed his laughter, stretched out his hand to hold Lin Xin in his arms, and said: "Okay, are you free now? Let's have a grand wedding. What kind do you want?"
Lin Xin chuckled: "I want to hold a wedding in the universe, can you do it?"
Xue Fei thought for a moment and said, "It seems that both China and the United States now have commercial projects where you can pay money to ride a rocket to the space station and experience the life of an astronaut for a while. Do you really want to go?"
Lin Xin glared at Xue Fei: "I don't want to."
Xue Fei said: "It's actually quite interesting."
Lin Xin said: "It will take a long time of physical training, and I don't know when the launch will be. I don't have the time. I still have to work."
Xue Fei: “…” Lin Qin and Lin Xin are indeed brothers, both of them are workaholics.
Xue Fei asked: "Where are you going? To be more vulgar, to an island?"
Lin Xin thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't seem good to be too vulgar. Let's think of something more novel."
Xue Fei shook his head: "I don't have a rich imagination, so I can't think of it. You think of it."
Lin Xin touched his chin and said, "Do you want to hold your wedding at the top of Mount Everest?"
Xue Fei's mouth twitched: "Why is it the top of Mount Everest?"
Lin Xin said: "I just suddenly remembered it. I have climbed Mount Everest twice. I have a connection with Mount Everest."
Xue Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's okay for me. With my physical fitness, I should still be able to climb Mount Everest. But what about the other guests? What about my parents?"
Lin Xin asked: "They set off fireworks for us at the foot of the mountain?"
Xue Fei: “…”
I always feel that although Lin Xin has grown older, his personality is still as lovely (you) as ever.
