Special feature of 1905 film network After five years, I finally returned with a long-overdue business comedy.From the choice and creation of theme stories to the low-key publicity period, it is not difficult to see that this time he tried to break the long-standing labeling impression of "Dapeng" and "Dapeng Works" again.
In this special New Year’s Eve release, can "Keep You Safe" send joy and hope to the audience in 2023 as Dapeng wishes, and at the same time bring a hot New Year’s Day market?
On December 18th, the opening film "Keep You Safe" ushered in its first screening at Hainan Island International Film Festival. As the first audience of the whole network, 1905 Film Network also sent you this fresh viewing evaluation for the first time.
01
In the past, Dapeng’s works were easily attached with distinctive personal labels, largely because these stories usually incorporated and projected a large number of personal experiences or emotions from the beginning of the creative stage.Until "Keep You Safe", Dapeng finally stepped out of his "comfort zone".
At the end of the first screening, some viewers commented that this story was as accurate as a "scalpel" to the current social pain points. In the movie, Wei Ping-an, played by Dapeng, as a nobody at the bottom of society, almost resisted the invisible Internet public opinion bullying like a scourge by himself.
And the reason that supports him to travel thousands of miles, overcome all difficulties, and even seek the truth for the other party without paying back is just a promise of "meeting by chance" with the victim Han Lu (ornaments).
At the previous press conference with the theme of "dispelling rumors", Dapeng formally responded to the question that "Keep You Safe" is a "nonsense comedy" and "a hodgepodge of comedians".
In the movie, a group of comedians, such as,,, and so on, are indeed, as he said, by no means redundant jokes piled up in the plot, but a series of interlocking clues on Wei Ping-an’s road to "dispelling rumors."
Do what you think is right.This is a line that frequently appears in "Keep You Safe". It is not only a belief that encourages Wei Ping to seek the truth, but also a simple reason that urges him to make such a choice.
With exaggerated and absurd comedy techniques, it wraps up the background color of serious social issues, and the protagonist Wei Ping’s one-track mind, which is slightly "different" in the current society, attaches great importance to love and justice, and finally collides with a wonderful chemical reaction of the realistic comedy "Keep You Safe".
For Dapeng himself outside the play, this step of stepping out of the comfort zone is not "Do What You Think Is Right" & mdash; — Jumping out of the impression of labeling, "Keep You Safe" really let the audience see a "Dapeng Works" that is different from the past.

When the chief producer described his partner Dapeng, he said that during these years, each of his works was trying to break through himself. As a business comedy brought again after a lapse of five years, "Keep You Safe" has indeed integrated more expectations and ambitions of Dapeng.
Around the core of comedy, various image style elements have been boldly added to Keep You Safe.For example, playing a sister.Wei ruyiofLi XueJean, the scene is set in a horror-themed secret room. With the development of the plot, although the whole process is not complicated, it skillfully shoots the taste of classic comedy horror movies, adding to the jokes and enhancing the visual experience and impression.
In the second half of the film, with the plot of "chasing the real murderer with a thousand miles" entering a white-hot stage, there are a lot of actions, parkour and car-chasing designs jointly participated by Mary and Yang Di, and the rhythm of the film is also mobilized at any time with tension, which fully proves the maturity of "Keep You Safe" at the commercial level.
Of course, "sincerity is always a must."In "Keep You Safe", Dapeng has set up two emotional lines of "the kindness of strangers" and "the power of family ties", adding "double insurance" to the film.
While Wei Ping-an "runs away from rumors" for Han Lu, Wei Mo-li, her daughter, is also facing the same dilemma in her own life circle. Help justice, but you have to pay "some price" for it. Are you willing? Both father and daughter gave the answer in their own way.
At the end of the film, the egg between Han Lu and Wei Ping-an earned a lot of tears from the audience at the premiere. As a new year’s film, "Keep You Safe" must also be full of these emotional details, which the audience values most.
At present, the film market is gradually picking up in the cold winter. Perhaps Dapeng’s more mature "Keep You Safe" will become the most appropriate answer for the New Year’s Day file.
