Hoh Xil, in Tibetan, means beautiful green hills and beautiful girls. As the name implies, clouds cover the hills here, revealing a little white dry river stretching into the distance. Tibetan dwellings, Nima heaps, green grasslands and herds of Tibetan antelopes run on the endless Gobi, and their beauty is everywhere. But the average altitude here is more than 5000 meters, the climate is cold, the air is thin, and the oxygen content is only half of the sea level, so it is called "the forbidden zone for human survival". When a policeman from Beijing walked into the legendary magical mountain patrol station in Hoh Xil today, he couldn't see how the upcoming mountain patrol was full of dangerous suspense from the dark and calm faces of Kangba people in front of him: volunteers mysteriously disappeared ... Tibetan antelopes were slaughtered ... It is said that the mountain patrol team colluded with gunmen to steal and kill antelopes. ...

All for the truth! Hiding her name, Xiuyu joined the mountain patrol team to hunt down poachers and walked into the deserted Gobi of 40,000 square kilometers. Poachers are like ghosts wandering in the open mountains. They seem to be hidden in every crack, and they seem to be dispersed in thin air. They are like shadows gnawing at the nerves of mountain patrol members, looking for opportunities to shoot bullets at them. ...

The beautiful and lonely Hoh Xil is at peace. Suddenly, gunfire broke the silence, the mountain patrol on the protection station was killed by poachers, the Gobi was dyed red with blood, and another group of Tibetan antelopes were slaughtered. ...

We must catch the poachers! At the command of the mountain patrol captain Tairi, the mountain patrol team made an emergency start overnight and broke into the bleeding Hoh Xil. But poachers suddenly disappeared into the thin air like ghosts, leaving only hundreds of skinned Tibetan antelope bones. ...

The mountain patrol team struggled to pursue the vast Gobi, which was full of danger. Finally, poachers appeared on the other side of the glacier, and the team members rushed into the rapids in despair. After a life-and-death struggle, only a few poachers were caught, and the cunning thief headhunter escaped the net again.

In the snowstorm, the mountain patrol members who continue to pursue poachers are on the verge of despair: the car broke down, the gasoline ran out, the food was in short supply, the mountains were closed by heavy snow, and the mountain patrol members kept falling under the sniper's gun ... Even the most tenacious Tibetan man cried: We can't get out!

Combating poaching is the unshirkable responsibility of the mountain patrol team; Protecting the homeland is the unshakable belief of the mountain patrol team. Mountain patrol members stubbornly pursued poachers in the snowy Gobi Desert, and gunfire echoed in the mountains of Hoh Xil for a long time ―― this is not just a mountain patrol, but a thrilling life adventure.

Second,

Hoh Xil, a film praised as "the aesthetic revolution of China's films" by Li Zehou, a famous contemporary aesthetic master, touched every audience with its solid narrative, sincere mind, mysterious and suspenseful temperament and concise and powerful images. Perhaps the word contradiction mixture is the best word to describe Hoh Xil. The combination of beauty and desolation here is so harmonious that people feel infinite sadness while cultivating beautiful scenery. As Lu Chuan said: Is Hoh Xil a paradise, a hell, or a holy place to witness life and faith? Because the story of Hoh Xil is difficult to tell, only people who have really walked can understand it!

The film set the tone of tragedy from the beginning. The hero Tairi inadvertently said, "We Tibetans eat meat for ourselves", just like a red line running through the whole film, the poachers' sniper's shot, the unpredictable quicksand and the unpredictable snow are always the dead sticks of mountain patrol members. Beauty is unlucky since ancient times. It seems that this old saying can also confirm the misery of this beautiful girl in Hoh Xil. Beauty and desolation coexist, here is doomed to danger, doomed to be shrouded in desire, sin and death!

After watching the whole movie, we should think deeply: What exactly does this movie reflect? To render the horror of death here? I don't want to think of this place as a plateau of death. People here are simple and kind. Even the poacher Ma Zhanlin kindly told reporters that you can walk out of the snow-capped mountains by following the footprints.

Is Mountain Ranger a Hero? Yes, but they are more exposed to the shadow of ordinary people. They will illegally sell the returned Tibetan antelope skins in order to maintain funds, and they will cry "We can't get out" in the snow-trapped car.

Are poachers cruel? Indeed, they are cruel. It was they who strafed the beautiful Tibetan antelope with machine guns, and they mercilessly shot bullets at unarmed and unsuspecting mountain patrol members. However, most poachers are herdsmen Malik Zhanlin. At one time, they also supported their lives by their hardworking hands. However, the land is desertified and there are fewer and fewer pastures, so it is difficult for sheep to survive. What should they do in such a desolate plateau? Waiting to starve to death? Of course not. At this time, the demand for Satushi shawls in Europe and America increased, and the price of Tibetan antelope cashmere soared, which was their chance of survival. This concept of survival made them ignore the national regulations prohibiting hunting Tibetan antelopes and whether the number of Tibetan antelopes has dropped sharply from one million to less than 20,000, and extended their evil hands to the beautiful Tibetan antelopes. They are both hateful poachers and poor people who fight against nature.

Economic backwardness has always been the root of evil. Only economic development can curb crimes caused by hunger; Only economic development can make people there protect the precious Tibetan antelope. Perhaps this is what director Lu Chuan wants to express in this film. In a word, this movie shocked many people and awakened many consciences. In addition to its beauty, the desolation and backwardness of Hoh Xil has also attracted people's attention. I believe that its future will only show its beauty with the help of the country and people, and it will become a holy place to witness life and faith and a paradise for mankind.
