开篇有对吴京的专访，先存到这里，改天有空再看英文

When the Chinese action movie “Wolf WarriorII” arrived in theatres, in July, it looked like a standard shoot-’em-up, witha lonesome hero and frequent explosions. Within two weeks, however, “WolfWarrior II” had become the highest-grossing Chinese movie of all time. Somecrowds gave it standing ovations; others sang the national anthem. In October,China selected it as its official entry in the foreign-language category of theAcademy Awards.
当中国动作电影“战狼II”在7月份上映的时候，看起来就像一个标准的射击游戏，孤胆英雄，爆炸四起。不过两周之内，“战狼II”就成为史上票房最高的中国电影。一些观众为它起立，还有人唱起了国歌。十月，中国选择了这部电影参与奥斯卡金像奖外语片的评选。

The hero, Leng Feng, played by the action star Wu Jing (who also directed the film), is a veteran of the “wolf warriors,” special forces of the People’s Liberation Army. In retirement, he works as a guard in a fictional African country, on the frontier of China’s ventures abroad. A rebel army, backed by Western mercenaries, attempts to seize power, and the country is engulfed in civil war. Leng shepherds civilians to the gates of the Chinese Embassy, where the Ambassador wades into the battle and declares, “Stand down! We are Chinese! China and Africa are friends.” The rebels hold their fire, and survivors are spirited to safety aboard a Chinese battle ship.
由动作明星吴京（也是电影导演）饰演的英雄冷锋，是中国人民解放军特种部队“战狼”的老兵。退伍后，他在一个虚构的非洲国家做保镖，处于中国在国外冒险行为的前沿。以西方雇佣军为后盾的反叛军企图夺取政权，国家被卷入内战。冷锋保护平民赶到中国大使馆的大门，大使干涉了战斗，大喊道：“放下枪！我们是中国人！中国和非洲是朋友。“反叛分子没有开火，幸存者被安全转移到一艘中国战舰上。

Leng rescues an American doctor, who tellshim that the Marines will come to their aid. “But where are they now?” he asksher. She calls the American consulate and gets a recorded message:“Unfortunately, we are closed.” In the final battle, a villain, played by theAmerican actor Frank Grillo, tells Leng, “People like you will always beinferior to people like me. Get used to it.” Leng beats the villain to death andreplies, “That was ****ing history.” The film closes with the image of aChinese passport and the words “Don’t give up if you run into danger abroad.Please remember, a strong motherland will always have your back!”
冷锋救出一名美国医生，她说海军陆战队会来帮助的。“但他们现在在哪里？”他问道。她打电话给美国领事馆，只听到一个录音留言：“很抱歉，我们闭馆了。” 在最后一场战斗中，美国演员弗兰克·格里洛扮演的反角对冷锋说：“像你这样的人永远不如我这样的人。你最好接受这一点。“冷锋把反角打死之后回答说：”那是***过去。“这部电影以中国护照的影像结尾，上面写着：“如果你在国外遇到危险，别放弃。请记住，你的背后有一个强大的祖国！”
Don’t give up if you run into danger abroad.Please remember, a strong motherland will always have your back!
如果你在国外遇到危险，别放弃。请记住，你的背后有一个强大的祖国！

When I moved to Beijing, in 2005, little of that story would have made sense to a Chinese audience. With doses of invention and schmalz, the movie draws on recent events. In 2015, China’s Navy conductedits first international evacuation, rescuing civilians from fighting in Yemen;last year, China opened its first overseas military base, in Djibouti. There has been a deeper development as well. For decades, Chinese nationalism revolved around victimhood: the bitter legacy of invasion and imperialism, and the memory of a China so weak that, at the end of the nineteenth century, the philosopher Liang Qichao called his country “the sick man of Asia.” “Wolf Warrior II” captures a new, muscular iteration of China’s self-narrative, muchas Rambo’s heroics expressed the swagger of the Reagan era.
当我在2005年搬到北京的时候，这个故事对中国观众来说是没什么感觉的。电影借鉴最近的事件并进行了加工。2015年，中国海军进行了第一次国际撤离，从战火中解救了也门平民；去年，中国在吉布提开设了第一个海外军事基地。还有一个更深刻的发展。几十年来，中国的民族主义者总是忘不了受害者的形象：被侵略、被帝国主义压迫是他们惨痛的回忆，他们记得中国曾经如此的薄弱，以至于十九世纪末哲学家梁启超把他的国家称为“东亚病夫”。“战狼II”捕捉到了中国自我形象的一个崭新的、有力的反复，就像兰博的英雄表现出了里根时代的摇摆不定。
the sick man of Asia. 东亚病夫

Recently, I met Wu Jing in Los Angeles, where he was promoting the movie in advance of the Academy Awards. Wu is forty-three, with short, spiky hair, a strong jaw, and an air of pricklybravado. He was on crutches, the result of “jumping off too many buildings,” he told me, in Chinese. (He speaks little English.) “In the past, all of our movies were about, say, the Opium Wars—how other countries waged war against China,” he said. “But Chinese people have always wanted to see that our country could, one day, have the power to protect its own people and contribute to peace in the world.”
最近，我在洛杉矶采访了吴京，他在奥斯卡颁奖仪式之前推广这部电影。吴京四十三岁，蓬松短发，下巴强壮，气势凶悍。他拄着拐杖，用中文告诉我是“跳楼太多”的结果（他很少说英文）。他说：“过去，我们所有的电影都是关于，比如说鸦片战争，其他国家是如何侵略中国的。但是中国人一直想看到，我们国家有一天有能力保护自己的人民，为世界和平做出贡献。”

As a favored son of China, celebrated by thestate, Wu doesn’t complain about censorship and propaganda. He went on,“Although we’re not living in a peaceful time, we live in a peaceful country. I don’t think we should be spending much energy thinking about negative aspects that would make us unhappy. Cherish this moment!”
作为受到国家垂青的儿子，吴京并没有抱怨审查制度和政治宣传。他继续说：“虽然我们生活在一个和平的时代，但我们生活在一个和平的国家。我认为我们不应该花费太多的精力去思考那些会让我们不快乐的负面因素。珍惜这一刻！“
