In a movie theater in Shangjing City, "Hello! Mr. Tree" is playing.

There were very few audience members in the theater, with an occupancy rate of less than 30%. Shushu was one of them - she had come here specially.

This movie has few screenings, and the cinema near her home doesn't have any suitable showtimes recently.

This time, Shushu watched it with strong doubts.

She felt that she seemed to have missed a lot of details when she first watched it.

In the first scene, Shu is standing in front of a mirror, facing the pictures of his father and his brother, and the monologue in the scene is like this.

"I always dream about my dad, wearing a black coat, looking for my brother everywhere."

right here!

Offstage, Shushu quickly recorded this conversation with her phone set to the lowest brightness.

This is a foreshadowing, that is, Shu's father and brother will only appear in his dreams.

Later, Xiaozhuang invited Shu to drink, and Shu agreed readily.

When he came out of the hospital, he met Gao Peng, who also invited him to drink, but he had to be dragged in before he was willing to go in.

This shows that he knows clearly in his heart who is truly good to him. Later, he wanted to rescue Xiaozhuang who had hit Erzhu's car, but he was treated as air. His dignity as a human being suffered another fatal blow.

After watching it for the second time, Shushu had a slightly different understanding of the character "Shu".

Everyone thinks he is stupid, not only in the plot, but also in real life.

But when someone hurts him, we can see from the tree's expression that although he appears silly, he is also very sensitive and feels sad.

But he was powerless to change it.

However, this remaining, sensitive dignity was completely crushed the moment she knelt down in front of Erzhu at the wedding.

At this time, Shu held Yi Xin's hand and said, "Life is meaningless."

Then, the screen changes.

coming!

In the audience, Shu Shu, who was concentrating, perked up and looked at the screen more intently.

At this point, she began to go into “find fault” mode.

The screen turns black, followed by a scene of the bride being teased in the snow.

This is the first unreasonable thing. There are two pigs in the team that is teasing the bride. They have just made such a fuss. How can they still play together as if nothing happened?

The second unreasonable thing happened after Shu went to Chen Yixin and worked in a training school.

When Shu was in the classroom, the door was suddenly pushed open, and his deceased father's father walked in and looked at him angrily.

As mentioned earlier, Shu "often dreams about" his father, which also proves that this is a dream.

The third unreasonable thing is the development of the relationship between Shu and Xiaomei.

Shu sends love poems to Xiaomei via text messages. When did he become so cultured?

He has to borrow money even to buy a pair of glasses, so where does he get the money to buy a cell phone?

During the date, Shu put his hand on Xiaomei's shoulder. She did not resist but instead smiled sweetly.

But during the first blind date, Xiaomei clearly held her mother's hand and was extremely resistant to Shu.

If these unreasonable details were a dream, then they all seem to make sense.

Seeing this, the more he confirmed a certain conjecture in his heart, the more Shushu felt a chill on his back, a chill running down his spine straight to his forehead...

Many viewers believe that Shue’s hallucinations began with a fight with her brother the night before her wedding.

This is wrong!

Or rather, not entirely wrong.

In fact, Shu’s dream began when he knelt down to Erzhu at Gao Peng’s wedding and was crushed to pieces. Everything after that was just his hallucination!

With this as the dividing line, the whole movie can be divided into two parts, almost half of the latter part is about dreams about trees.

This includes the illusion of the tree in the dream, which is a "dream within a dream"!

The second level of dreams is seen by most viewers and is the most obvious.

At the wedding, Shu saw his elder brother and sister-in-law who came to attend the wedding.

In the picture, the marks on the eldest brother's neck are clearly visible.

My eldest brother sang and danced at the wedding, and the song was "A Fire in Winter".

As mentioned in the beginning of the movie, Shu's brother passed away in 1986, but this song became popular during the 87 Spring Festival Gala...

At this moment, Shushu, who was sitting in the cinema, felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.

Ye Zhiqiu, stop it!

At the same time, she also felt a deep sense of sadness and powerlessness.

In fact, everything is just the tree's fantasy.

He did not marry Xiaomei, nor did he complete his "revenge" by making Erzhu kneel down to him through fortune-telling.

The real tree was "dead" the moment it knelt down to Erzhu at Gao Peng's wedding.

After finally understanding the details in the movie and knowing the deeper meaning that director Ye Zhiqiu wanted to express, the final scene of the movie also seemed easier to understand.

In the last scene, the sun shines on the earth and trees wander on the ridges.

On the left is the Sun City, which represents hope.

On the right is a deserted village.

One on the left and one on the right, symbolizing the future and the past, and the tree is in the middle, unable to go to the future or go back to the past. In the end, it gives up reality and chooses to immerse itself in an absurd dream.

Because in his dreams, he can decide everyone's fate, gain respect as a human being, gain love, and even cut the ribbon and talk about the future with the boss of a mining company.

When he can't change the world, or even himself, he can only rely on dreams to survive...

The film ended and the lights in the theater came back on.

Audience members stood up in groups of three or four and left with heavy or confused looks on their faces.

Shushu sat in his seat for a long time. After a long time, he took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and hurried home.

Okay, okay, Ye Zhiqiu, you want to shoot like this, right?

——I blow it up!

On the third day, a long film review titled "Do you really understand "Hello! Mr. Tree"? " was posted online.

The article starts with many details of the film and analyzes in detail what the film really wants to convey.

As a well-known film critic with more than 500 million fans, "Dashu Film Review" is quite popular due to its strong professionalism and easy-to-understand commentary style. Soon many netizens saw this film review.

Then, countless netizens left messages below.

"???"

"What the hell, is it so thin?"

“So I didn’t understand it at all?”

“Isn’t the blogger over-interpreting this?”

"It's really not an over-interpretation. It's all based on reason and evidence."

"After reading several bloggers' reviews, someone finally explained it clearly."

"One more detail to add. In the plot, Chen Yixin talked about the Olympiad math reasoning problem of the three balls of 'red, yellow and blue'. In layman's terms, after taking out three colored balls, and then taking out another ball, there must be a pair of balls of the same color. The reason why Ye Zhiqiu designed this plot is to leave a decryption key for the audience, suggesting that there must be corresponding plots in the plot."

"In reality, Sanlengzi mentioned the opening of Ruiyang Mining, and in the dream, Shu attended the opening ceremony. In reality, Xiaomei had no good feelings for Shu, and not only did Xiaomei marry Shu, she also got pregnant with his child. In reality, Shu lost his dignity and knelt down to Erzhu, and in the dream, Erzhu knelt down to him. This is a one-to-one correspondence."

"It's terrifying when you think about it, it's so scary!"

"...I'm giving you all these weird details!"

This film review aroused heated discussion among movie fans, and then a careful netizen discovered a detail.

The director himself, Ye Zhiqiu, actually liked this film review!
