With a boyfriend, Lin Zhuwan watched the second half of the story with trepidation.
However, what Lin Zhuwan was worried about did not happen.
Lin Yu'an was just pretending to be weak to take advantage of others from beginning to end.
His high intelligence would never allow him to put himself in danger. Xu Ning was a tool in his hands; what bound them together was never a bond of shared hardship, but rather deep-seated interests.
When Lin Yu'an completely overturned the game and rewrote the rules of the game on the island with the rabbit cards he monopolized, those players who had initially been greedy and greedy for points could only work for him for nothing. Lin Zhuwan clenched her fists in excitement.
Lin Yu'an was never a rabbit; he was just locked in a cage, lying in wait for his chance.
When the rules and constraints of human civilization no longer bind him, he will be more ferocious and ruthless than anyone else present.
The moment Lin Yu'an rewrote the rules using the existing rules, the jungle game was over.
Now it's Lin Yu-an's game!
At that moment, even Xu Ning turned his head to look at Lin Yu'an, his eyes as unfamiliar as if he were seeing him for the first time. His usually playful and casual eyes now held a hint of wariness and vigilance.
Lin Yu'an remained calm and even smiled at Xu Ning.
Xu Ning eventually looked away.
However, viewers noticed that Xu Ning's attitude towards Lin Yu'an underwent a dramatic change later on.
Xu Ning seemed to show Lin Yu'an a certain amount of respect?
When the players on the island used gold to exchange for "life" cards, Xu Ning did all the work, while Lin Yu'an watched coldly from the sidelines.
The dominance of the two seems to have quietly shifted.
At the end of the story, Lin Yu'an arrived empty-handed, just like when he arrived on the island, without bringing anything with him. Xu Ning, on the other hand, was carrying large bags and small packages, having placed all the gold he had obtained on the island on the cruise ship that came to pick them up.
The person standing on the boat was the organizer's butler, dressed in a well-tailored suit with a fake smile on his face, bowing and asking Lin Yu'an if he needed to make an exchange.
Lin Yu'an kept only two small boxes; the rest of the gold was exchanged for money.
But when he turned around to share the money with Xu Ning, he found that Xu Ning was gone.
The ship had set sail at some point, and the island, filled with bloodshed and trials of humanity, gradually receded into the distance in his eyes... If it weren't for the weight of the gold in his hand, Lin Yu'an would have thought he was dreaming.
There was even a moment when he doubted whether Xu Ning really existed.
But everything on the island was so real, and something had already been subtly changing in the shadows—
Finally, Lin Yu'an disembarked alone, returned to the city from the port, went back to the hospital to pay off the debts, and returned to the orphanage. He bought the land there and prepared to renovate the orphanage.
The final scene of the film shows the young man sitting quietly by the hospital bed, gently stroking the invitation in his hand, his mind blank.
—He seemed to be recalling a series of events that had occurred on the island.
Although he has left, a part of his soul may have remained in that land long ago.
The nurse from next door pushed the cart over and, seeing Lin Yu'an in the seat, casually asked while giving the hospital director a physical examination, "What a beautiful invitation! Did someone invite you to a wedding?"
"no."
Lin Yu'an snapped out of her thoughts, slowly put away the ornately decorated /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ letter in her hand, and a smile slowly spread across her face.
But there was a hint of mockery in that smile.
"It's my job offer letter—"
The scene abruptly ended.
The lights in the theater gradually came on, drawing all the audience members back to reality.
Lin Zhuwan stared blankly at the big screen, watching the list of actors appear one by one. She took a deep breath and gripped her boyfriend's hand tightly.
"Cool!"
Finally, instead of the ridiculous situation where players are manipulated from beginning to end and then forced to participate in a second round of the game, they can join directly!
Lin Yu'an is really too strong!
When he plays with other players, it's like a game of pure magic!
Oh no, we should also add Xu Ning, whose combat prowess is off the charts!
This combination is absolutely phenomenal! It's practically perfect!
However, Lin Zhuwan's surprises didn't end there.
Because there's actually a surprise at the end!
The island is still the same island.
But it was pouring rain that day.
A group of people wearing raincoats suddenly appeared on the island.
The players huddled in a corner, trembling with fear, while the leader, wearing a raincoat, revealed the Tang sword in his hand.
"Game time is over."
"Clear all players—"
As he spoke, the black raincoat billowed in the rain, and the leader drew his Tang sword, stormed into the abandoned wooden house, and slaughtered all the players who tried to resist.
Blood mixed with muddy water flowed out of the room, and the water accumulating under the eaves was mercilessly trampled by the man.
A bolt of lightning struck, and Xu Ning's face was revealed under the hood of his raincoat.
His eyes were filled with a chilling murderous aura, and his face was splattered with the blood of many people, the blood mixed with rainwater dripping silently down.
He made no attempt to wipe it clean; instead, he extended the Tang sword from the eaves, used the falling rainwater to wash away the blood on the blade, then wiped off the water stains and gracefully sheathed it.
"Cleanup complete."
He reported calmly into the dark night amidst the torrential rain.
Another familiar voice came through the headphones.
"Well done, that's a wrap."
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a muffled rumble of thunder from behind the clouds, the entire video suddenly went dark.
The movie "Law of the Jungle" has officially ended.
As the movie ended, the scrolling screen displayed the names of various companies and teams, and the background music changed to the movie's ending theme song. Everyone subconsciously adjusted their seats and looked towards the center of the stage below the big screen.
The host in charge of this preview screening was already standing on the stage, smiling at the audience below: "Thank you all for coming to the first preview screening of 'Law of the Jungle'. Now, let's welcome the main creative team members of 'Law of the Jungle', namely—Director Ren Changwen, actors Liu Zehang and Xiao He..."
Those whose names were called stood up in the front row and went up on stage amidst cheers from the audience.
Standing in the center of the stage, looking at the excited eyes of the audience below, Xiao He felt a surge of pride.
Even if he weren't an actor, from a purely audience perspective, he really enjoyed this movie.
With its battle royale elements, the final twist of a seemingly innocent person turning into a villain, and its high-level action sequences and seamless plot, even if it can't become a work of art, displayed in an art gallery, or be considered a must-see film, it is perfectly competent as a commercial film.
In particular, the novel theme of "Battle Royale" completely surpasses other domestic film themes that have been overdone, making it unique in recent years.
So as long as the overall direction is correct, the script is good, and the actors don't underperform, this movie will definitely make its mark on the movie charts in recent years.
"Hello everyone, I am actor Liu Zehang, who plays the role of Lin Yu'an in 'Law of the Jungle'."
Liu Zehang handed the microphone to Xiao He.
Xiao He took a deep breath, raised the microphone, and introduced himself to the audience with a smile: "Hello everyone, I am actor Xiao He, and I play Xu Ning in 'Law of the Jungle'!"
