The phenomenon-level stage play "Blossoms" is based on Jin Yucheng's novel of the same name, "Blossoms", and at the beginning of its premiere in 2018, the creative concept of "stage drama" was established, and the stage interpretation of this huge work was completed with the volume of three seasons, and the three seasons were independent and interconnected with each other. As of 2021, the "box sealing performance", the first season of the stage play "Flowers" has been performed 56 times in four years, with a burst of word-of-mouth, which has triggered the "blossoming" fever several times and created a unique "blossoming body" stage aesthetic.

The first season of "Blossoms" uses two timelines of the 60s and 90s of the last century to cross jump, using the process of the three brothers in the original work (Ah Bao, Hu Sheng and Xiao Mao) from "acquaintance to renunciation" as the clue of the whole drama. The second season describes how the three brothers went from "breaking off to reuniting" to string together the complicated stories of the new season. More than a dozen new characters flying flowers and butterflies, Tao Tao, Mei Rui, Xiaoqin, Chunxiang, Xuezhi, Teacher Li, Fang Mei, Pan Jing, Lingzi, Ah Bao's father, etc. have appeared one after another, a feast with mixed conditions, a rare sigh in this life...

As the middle of the "Blossom Trilogy", the second season strives to present the city's tough and unique character, dedicated to the people who are still struggling to move forward despite the storm, and every daily life that will eventually shine in the picture of life.

The conception and creation of the second season follows the "Golden Triangle of Creation" model led by the original author Jin Yucheng, screenwriter Wen Fangyi and director Ma Junfeng, directed by stage designer Liu Kedong, combining the architectural characteristics of Shanghai and the special era vocabulary in the original "Flowers", and strives to break through the stage framework of the first season, pursue the "sense of depth", "poetic sense" and "imagination" in the stage language, and pass on to the audience the interpretation space for reverie.

If the overall vocabulary of the first season of the stage drama "Blossoms" is "the texture of the times, contemporary expression", the co-producer Shanghai Wenguang Performing Arts Group, Shanghai Wumeng Culture and the main creative team are committed to making the second season go further in "contemporary expression" - from "relatively realistic" to "relatively freehand", to achieve the purpose of inheriting the city spirit and a new urban style, showing "Shanghai in memory", "Shanghai now" and "Shanghai in the future".
