Realistic reflection of corrupted bureacracy via sarcasm
zzmale19 November 2003
When the Engineer from Hei Pao Shi Jian (1986) got promoted, he was stocked with endless meetings that were meaningless. To free himself from this problem, he made a robotic duplica of himself.

What the Engineer did not realize was that these meetings were also the breeding ground of corruption. Soon his robotic duplica was drawn to the world of bribery and kickback, and when the engineer realized this, it was too late, and he had to destroy the robot in order to end all of these.

The film shows the criticism of the corrupted and inefficient bureaucracy and even though it was made more than one and half decade ago, the problem depicted still applies to current situation of China.

Film review + full story introduction

Warning: Spoilers
I didn't think China could make such a sci-fi movie, but the golden age of film in the 1980s is over and the legacy of that time is gradually being exhausted.

The story tells that the protagonist, in order to escape a lot of meetings every day, creates a bionic man exactly like himself and asks him to attend the meeting instead of the protagonist. But gradually, the bionic man has his own consciousness and begins to sprout rebellious thoughts. He wants to replace the protagonist and become the real protagonist. As a result, the protagonist's girlfriend runs away, his reputation and reputation are also poor, and finally the protagonist can't control the out of control Bionic man, so he presses the kill button, and the film ends here.
