(1) Introduction to the film The Hong Kong film Ghost Story is adapted from Nie Xiaogan's section in the novel collection Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio by Pu Songling, a scholar in the Qing Dynasty. The earliest film version of Ghost Story was shot by the famous Hong Kong director Li Hanxiang in 1999, and produced by Hong Kong Shaw Film Company. Ghost Story is adapted from Nie Xiaogan in Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio. In the original work, Ning He's love description is not detailed, and there is no tortuous, complicated and interesting exploration process between them. From the beginning, I planned to ask Ning for help, but in the end I was not reincarnated and became Ning's concubine. However, in the movie "Ghost Story", their love legend was vividly interpreted by the director, and her heart was sincere. Xiao Gan began to want to hurt Ning Cai Chen, but she was moved by his kindness and simplicity, which led to love. Ning Cai Chen didn't know Xiao Gan was a ghost at first, but he was also afraid when he knew it, which was unacceptable to some people. But in the end, love overcame the boundary between man and ghost, so a touching "ghost play" was staged.

Introduction to the Film This film is an immortal masterpiece in China's film history, adapted from a short story in Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio. Director Li Hanxiang has great attainments in China's ancient history, culture and classical literature and art, and can be said to be the last one. In this edition of Ghost Story, director Li Hanxiang shows the master style, detailed textual research, meticulous carving, gorgeous costumes and exquisite props, which reshapes the classical world. His paintings are excellent, and he wrote all the scenes in the movie. This film is full of ancient style and ethereal charm. Betty Loh Ti, known as the "classical beauty", plays Xiao Gan with a beautiful shape; Zhao, known as the "emperor's niche", looks handsome and elegant, quite like an ancient scholar. With a strong academic atmosphere, he created an insurmountable Ning Cai Chen. Ghost Story (1959) participated in Cannes Film Festival (1960), which is the first color film in China to participate in an international film festival. Li Hanxiang strengthened the role in the original work, which laid the foundation for Tsui Hark to remake Ghost Story 30 years later. In director Tsui Hark's later remake, the main plot, characters and places, scenery (including poems) are also interpreted on the basis of director Li Hanxiang's version. 3, related poems Li version: the lake is green all over the sky, and the jade hairpin is dark. If the rain covers can protect each other, only Yuanyang is admirable, not a fairy. Xu Edition: Shiliping Lake is full of frost, and I am worried about the New Year. Looking at the full moon and protecting each other, I only admire Yuanyang but not the fairy. This poem has no source, but it refers to the poem Qing Xiang in White-Don't think about it. If you insist that the author is Jizhi Ruan, the screenwriter of Ghost Story, or Tsui Hark, the producer, because this poem is the first painting in Ghost Story directed by Tsui Hark. The original text should be: "Shiliping Lake is full of frost, and every inch of land is sad. Looking at the moon, I only envy Yuanyang, but before that, Li Hanxiang's ghost story (1959) said, "Shili Pinghu is full of blue sky, and Hosta secretly cherishes the Spring Festival. If the rain covers can protect each other, only Yuanyang does not envy the fairy. "It can be seen that the Xu version has been changed by the Li version. (3) Ghost 1: Ghost 1987 1.

The story tells that the scholar would rather go to Lanruo Temple to take shelter from the rain, but was rejected by Taoist Yan Chixia. In the middle of the night, attracted by the beautiful piano sound of the girl Nie, the two have kept close contact ever since. Unexpectedly, it was a female ghost manipulated by grandma's tree spirit, looking for a strong man to absorb Yang's essence. Yan Chixia helps Ning Cai Chen deal with grandma and makes them ghost lovers. Leslie Cheung, Joey Wong, Oh Mom, Liu Zhaoming and others all have wonderful shapes and performances, and several film episodes written by James J.S. Wong are also very beautiful. This is a story about ghosts. With the help of classical literature, the director shows the emotional entanglement between the wandering soul Nie and the scholar Ning and the Taoist Yan Chixia. The film praises love and friendship, and expresses his good wishes of promoting good and punishing evil. Nie, who is a combination of man and ghost, Yan Chixia, who is chivalrous and courageous, and Ning, who is kind-hearted, all left a deep impression on people. The film makes full use of various film means to create a fantastic and confusing artistic atmosphere. It won four awards: Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor, Best Art Design and Best Editing in the 24th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards. Won the 7th Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Production Designer and Best Music. 3, the movie episode "Don't Come to Sally Yeh at Dawn" song/lyrics: James J.S.Wong Dawn, please don't come, let the dream last forever tonight. The love that stays at this moment commands the soul to welcome in. Please call Dawn, don't come back now, let me feel romantic, let me float out of the world, send love in the cold rain with the warmth of the breeze, let infatuation break through the obstacles silently, and don't let the red sun teach people to separate for a long night. Don't change, please call dawn, there is no need to show beauty and dreams now.

The story of Ghost Story 2 Infernal Affairs (also known as The Devil in Gone with the World) is the continuation of the first episode, and the main line is still along the protagonist Ning Cai Chen. The story happened in a dynasty with chaotic political affairs and poor people's livelihood. After Ning helped reincarnate and broke up with Yan Chixia, she was framed and imprisoned. With the help of Tian Tong doctor Zhuge Wolong, he successfully escaped from prison. Later, he even crossed paths with Qiu Zhi Ye Yi, a Taoist priest of Ghost Horse, and lived in an abandoned villa. It turns out that this villa is full of loyal people. Led by Xia and her sister Fu Yuechi, they are going to rescue their father Fu who was framed and imprisoned. Ning Cai Chen found that Fu Qingfeng looked like her old love Xiao Gan, thinking that this was the reincarnation of Xiao Gan, so she left a temptation, but she didn't expect that she fell into a love triangle. General Zuo Qianhu is escorting Fu Qiu Tian to the vicinity of the villa. In fact, Zuo Qianhe is also a patriot. He suggested that everyone turn to Dharma Buddhist, but this Buddhist is actually the incarnation of the devil! Ning Cai Chen and Fu Qingfeng went through all kinds of hardships to seek help from Yan Chixia in Lanre Temple, and a war between good and evil began. 3. Movie Review: Three years after the release of Ghost Story in 1986, the response of Ghost Story 2 Infernal Affairs, which was only broadcast in 1990, was mixed. Many people think that this film is naturally much more exciting than the first one in entertainment (especially in visual effects), but it is somewhat inferior in artistry. Some people say that Ghost Story 2 is more fighting, magical and funny than the first episode, but they forget the ghost love in the first episode, which is the so-called "root-breaking", and don't know where the itch of the audience is. However, Ghost Story 2 still achieved box office success. Perhaps the first episode left a deep impression on the audience. The audience loves me, love my dog and watch the second episode after watching the first episode.
