"If you want to write, you have to live first, and if you want to create heroes, you have to shape yourself first." On May 19th, the premiere ceremony of the biographical film "Liu Qing", which gathered the strength of Shaanxi filmmakers and lasted for 6 years to create and polish, was held in Xi'an, and the "Spirit of Liu Qing" once again ignited a fire in the hearts of the audience.
The movie "Liu Qing" vividly tells the moving story of liu qing, a young writer in the early days of the founding of New China, who cherished ideals, gave up the treatment of senior cadres in Beijing, went deep into life, took root in the countryside, and wrote an epic masterpiece "History of Entrepreneurship" after half a lifetime. At the premiere ceremony, the film's creators were all present to share the story behind the film's shooting. It is understood that "Liu Qing" will be released nationwide on May 21.
Adapted from Liu Kefeng's book "The Biography of Liu Qing"
"Liu Qing" is adapted from Liu Kefeng's book "Biography of Liu Qing", showing the history of the people's writer Liu Qing in close contact with the masses, integrating his life into the characters and environment of his pen, and leading the people of Huangfu Village to work hard to start a business. Compared with other literary and artistic works that tell the "story of Liu Qing", the film "Liu Qing" chooses to cut from Liu Qing's personal perspective, spread out the grand social theme, reflect the grandeur of the construction period of New China, and lead the audience to embrace the poetic ideals of the red romantic era.
On the screen, Liu Qing's story begins with him giving up the treatment of senior cadres, coming to Chang'an Huangfu Village, and living in a rural mud house. In the subsequent narrative laying out, whether it is Liu Qing's real integration into the peasant group from dress to spirit, or Liu Qing's separation and re-reconciliation with his wife, and Liu Qing's donation of all the manuscript fees and the family's living constraints, etc., all of which deeply touch the audience's hearts. In the film, there is Liu Qing's great spirit of being close to the people, close to life, and close to reality, and there are also when he encounters setbacks due to the current situation, seeking truth from facts to treat social trends of thought and creative trends, and adhering to the conscience of a writer as a writer.
Not only Liu Qing, but every character on the screen is shaped with flesh and blood. Ma Wei's virtuousness and kindness, and Wang Jiabin's honesty and wisdom all left a deep impression on the audience. "Sincere", "touching" and "shocking the heart" have become the viewing experiences that the audience is highly mentioned in interviews with reporters.
"I didn't know Much about Liu Qing before, and I didn't know much about that era, but this movie made me really know Liu Qing and feel his spiritual strength even more." He has a firm belief and a heart for the people, no matter what difficulties he encounters, he persistently guards the fire in his heart, and truly uses his life to achieve 'great righteousness in his heart and a clean mind in his pen'. After watching the movie, ma Fengming, a "post-00" audience, had a long and difficult to calm down.

In order to present a work of excellence to the audience, but also in order to let the vivid Liu Qing into the hearts of the public, director Tian Bo said that the creation and shooting of "Liu Qing" has gone through 6 years, the script has been polished for more than 20 drafts, and more than 20 experts in the field of literature and party history have been invited as consultants to escort the film. "Liu Qing said that 'if you want to create a heroic character, you must first shape yourself', and the process of making this film is also the process of practicing Liu Qing's spirit. History is created by people, and I want to reflect the great national spirit through the image of Liu Qing, a character who moved me, who was able to always uphold the truth and conscience in the tide of history and is undoubtedly the backbone of the nation. ”
Cheng Taishen, a famous actor who plays Liu Qing in the film, said when talking about his creative feelings, "Shooting made me enter Liu Qing's heart, and what moved me most was the heart of a child - everything about Liu Qing boils down to one word is 'true', as a party member, as a writer, as a husband, as a father, you can feel this truth." ”
At the Xi'an premiere ceremony, it was also the second time cheng Taishen watched the film after the filming of "Liu Qing", "The first time I watched the movie, I was in tears half the time, this time I told myself in advance to control my emotions, but in the second half of the journey, I cried again - Liu Qing really wrote the 'big letters'." Cheng Taishen revealed that before becoming an actor, he always had a dream of becoming a writer, "This time I can play Mr. Liu Qing, I have fulfilled my dream in another way." ”
Liu Qing's daughter released a recording of her father's conversation
"Liu Qing" was filmed in Shaanxi, jointly produced by the Shaanxi Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, the Propaganda Department of the Shaanxi Provincial Party Committee, the Department of Culture and Tourism of Shaanxi Province, and the Propaganda Department of the Xi'an Municipal Party Committee of the Communist Party of China.
In such a film branded with the "Shaanxi Imprint", the audience can not only see a shocking story, but also appreciate the magnificent Shaanxi style - there are Nanshan Rudai, standing in the vast fields carved by the imperial tombs; there are golden rice fields and verdant corn fields, like oil paintings; there are pictures of villagers and writers talking about the sky under the ancient locust of the sky, poetic surges; there is no shortage of mud hut venues, tofu factories, livestock markets, and barning fields... It is full of rich rustic earthy atmosphere, which triggers people's dense nostalgia.
As a heavyweight filmmaker in China, Huo Tingxiao said that he is very satisfied with the work of "Liu Qing", "From storytelling to shooting techniques, this film is an absolutely sincere film, its visual presentation has the characteristics of Shaanxi, and also shows the poetic sentiment of the land of Sanqin in the realistic theme, with unique visual techniques and directing techniques, realizing the innovative exploration in the film school." ”
What is particularly touching is that at the Xi'an premiere of "Liu Qing", Liu Qing's daughter Liu Meifeng also came to the scene and provided a recording of Liu Qing's discussion of the topic of "life is the foundation of creation" before her death, which was also the first time that the recording was exposed to the public. When the sound that penetrates time echoes in the theater, the power of the spirit rises in the hearts of all. Reporter Sun Huan Zeng Shixiang
