I think it’s a plagiarism from Tang Detective 2’s Five Elements of Killing, but it doesn’t count as a plagiarism of Double Eyes. It seems very reluctant to say that Tang Detective 2 definitely borrowed from Double Eyes based on Five Elements of Killing.
In Tang Detective 2, according to the five elements of birth date and time, people are killed at the corresponding places and the corresponding internal organs are taken.
In the double pupils, there are words in the name of the deceased in the prophecy, and the corresponding person in the prophecy is killed. The method of killing is through mold (but the double pupils have supernatural colors, so the actual mold used for killing cannot be used completely. Scientific explanation, mixed with magic power), there are different ways of death for different crimes of the deceased.
Both of them are similar to killing people in alphabetical order by their names, so they cannot be considered plagiarism.
However, the main line of reasoning between the two is brought out
The murderer in Tang Detective 2 has cancer. In order to become an immortal, he needs to kill five people (actually four, Killed with a scalpel and removed the internal organs). A talisman was left at the murder scene. The protagonist took the talisman and asked an expert for advice. He followed the traces and found a book. Later, he thought of the five elements attributes of the three deceased and deduced that the murderer was practicing to become an immortal. . Finally, a hidden altar was found in the hospital, and the murderer committed suicide. (Cultivation to become an immortal and refining elixirs are both speculations of the protagonist, but the murderer did not say what he wanted to do by removing the internal organs, he only said that he wanted to live. If you want to mince words and say that the murderer did not remove the internal organs to become an immortal, I really can’t accept it. . )
The murderer in the eyes has cancer. In order to become an immortal, he needs to kill five people according to the prophecy. One of the dead people has a talisman. The protagonist takes the talisman and asks the expert for advice. The expert sees the talisman. It is pointed out that the murderer wanted to become an immortal after killing, and there is a mysterious inscription combined with graphics to predict the name of the deceased. In the end, the murderer killed five people (it had a supernatural color and was not killed by physical means by the murderer himself), and then used the protagonist Huang Huotu to kill himself and become an immortal. In the meantime, the police found the company of the person who might be the murderer. There was a gym in the company building, and a massacre occurred in the gym.
Suffering from cancer, cultivating to become an immortal, weird talismans, and buildings within buildings, although the two are not exactly the same, the double pupils in Tang Detective 2 have a particularly strong sense of déjà vu. These are similar, I don’t believe it if you say it’s just a joke without any influence.
As far as paying tribute, I think the content similarity between the Five Elements Killing line and the main line of Two-Eyed Murdering is beyond the scope of paying tribute. Is there an object of tribute marked?
Does the audience know that the double-pupil tribute makes these scenes more interesting and exciting?
Or has Detective Tang 2 obtained the authorization for Double Eyes?
The director of "Double Eyes" is Chen Guofu. There is a deceased person in Tang Detective 2, Lu Guofu, as a tribute?
