1. ** Plot Development **
- In this story, the fake Qianlong wanted to kill Jiaqing, but his identity was exposed by Li Jing. There were many complicated plot lines in the plot. For example, the fake Qianlong Zhou Qingshu lived in Xinglong Inn, and the waiter stole the jade fan that was suspected to be the emperor, triggering a series of subsequent plots. In order to verify the authenticity of the fan, the owner arranged for the waiter to steal it. After confirming that it was an item of the royal family, the fake Qianlong granted the owner a fourth-grade official and the waiter a seventh-grade official. After the news spread, the prefect learned of Qianlong's arrival in Shanxi. After discussing with Gui Huaitai, the prefect, who wanted to be promoted, brought his subordinates to kneel down. The fake Qianlong also accused the 15th prince of interfering with local affairs and asked him to commit suicide with the Dragon Claw Sword. The fake Qianlong was quite lustful. When he went to the flower house to play, he was seen through by the monk Li Jing. Because Li Jing had once discussed Buddhism with the real Qianlong, he found that this person was not like the real Qianlong.

1. ** Main storyline **
- The film told the story of an old man fishing alone on a small boat. The old man had not caught any fish for 84 days in a row. He was a fisherman who went out to sea alone, forming a sharp contrast with the other villagers who were always full of harvest. Even so, there was a boy who had always been on good terms with the old man. He was his friend regardless of age. The boy would help the old man do some things, such as getting rope, harpoon, buying bait, and so on.
2. ** Plot Climax **
- On the 85th day, the old man went out to sea to fish. First, he caught a small sardine for lunch, and then he caught a big fish. The big fish was very powerful, pulling the old man's boat to the depths of the ocean. The old man was in a stalemate with the fish for a long time. From day to night, after the sun went down and the moon came out, although the old man was exhausted, drenched in sweat and freeze-dried, he decided to fight with the big fish to the end in order not to return empty-handed again. Even if the other fishing rods were broken by the fish that had taken the bait, he still held the rope at his waist tightly, afraid that the big fish would escape.

** 4."The Story of Your Life"(adapted into the movie "Arrival")**

In the story, an alien spaceship appeared. 120 "mirrors" appeared around the world, and there were nine in the United States. They could communicate with the alien "Seven-limbed Bucket" through the "mirrors". Louise received a government mission to learn the alien language with the physicist, Dr. Gale Donnelly (her future husband), while preventing aliens from learning English through them.
2. ** Narration characteristics **
- In the process of telling the main story, there were stories about her daughter's growth. The heroine seemed to predict the future. For example, when she told her daughter's 12-year-old story, she hinted that she knew when her daughter would die and that her husband would live with another woman.
