After "Ordinary World", Lu Yao's most important work will be broadcast tonight, and the period drama has a ceiling?

Remember the 1984 movie Life?

Adapted from Lu Yao's novel of the same name "Life", starring Zhou Lijing and Wu Yufang, the story tells the story of the contradictions and entanglements between the rural youth Gao Garin, the rural girl Qiao Zhen and the urban girl Huang Yaping, and the story of constantly composing an extraordinary life in the tide of the times.

The film received rave reviews and sparked widespread discussion, and won the Best Feature Film Award at the 8th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Awards in 1985.

In 2004, "Life" was adapted into a TV series for the first time and broadcast on CCTV eight sets, starring Wang Yu, Miao Tingru, Peng Yang, Su Xiaogang and so on.

Although the filming process is very difficult and the actors are very dedicated, this drama has a mediocre response and is far less famous than another TV series, that is, "Ordinary World" starring Wang Lei.

And Wang Lei, with this drama, also won the honor of the 28th China TV Golden Eagle Award for Emperor in one fell swoop.

Now after 19 years, the latest adaptation of the 40-episode period drama "The Road of Life" is about to start, whether it is shooting details or cast, it is full of surprises.

Elaborately crafted

The drama began preparations in 2017 and began filming in 2022, lasting more than 6 months, and was filmed in the remote Qingjian County.

In order to show the real rural scenes of the 80s of the last century, Qingjian County built a "Life" film and television base, reproducing the county town and roads in the novel, which can be described as full of sincerity.

In terms of details, even the styling of the clothing, the team is very careful.

Chen Xiao's Gao Garin, when he was a high school student, wore a dark blue overalls, returned to the countryside after falling off the list, but changed into coarse cloth clothes, as if to suggest two completely different situations and moods;

Qiao Zhen, played by Li Qin, went from a simple twisted braid to a bent on catching up with the trend, permed a curly hair, and then turned into a clean ponytail with the development of the times, which pulls people back to the era in the novel, full of memories.

In addition to the framing and costumes, the production team is also a gold medal team.

Chief director Yan Jiangang has directed "The Awakened", "Qin Shi Huang", "Zhao's Orphan Case", etc., and has won many awards;

screenwriters Hong Jinghui and Weixi, one is the screenwriter of "I Am Durala" and "Dear Translator";

A screenwriter who has served as "Children of the Qiao Family" and "Mountains and Seas", all in all, this drama gathers a group of "big guy" behind-the-scenes figures, and the strength cannot be underestimated.

Adapted from the original, but sublimated

Lu Yao's "Life" tells the story of the male protagonist Gao Garin, who was originally a spirited reader and became a private teacher in the village after failing the college entrance examination. The good times did not last long, he was replaced by the son of Gao Minglou, the secretary of the brigade, and when he was frustrated, he met the simple rural girl Qiao Zhen.

Qiao Zhen became the spiritual solace of Gao Garin, but Gao Garin seized the opportunity to go to the city and met the city girl Yaping. In Yaping, Gao Garin felt the gap between the city and the countryside, and after some struggle, he decisively chose Yaping and cruelly hurt Qiaozhen.

However, life in the city is not all smooth sailing. Gogarin was forced to return to the countryside when he was forced to return to the countryside, but was warmly received by his fellow villagers. And at this time, Qiao Zhen was also married.

Looking at everything in front of him, Gogarin cried and was annoyed.

After reading the original work, many people said that Gogarin was a "scumbag" who abandoned Qiaozhen, who really loved him, in order to pursue a material life.

In fact, Gao Garin's inner pride and high-level pursuit have long determined that he will not stay in the countryside, nor is he willing to stay in the countryside, so that Qiao Zhen's sincerity has been ruthlessly ignored.

In the TV series, Yan Jiangang hopes that the audience can get a reflection on his life path from Gao Garin's fate.

In addition, he expanded the space for Gogarin's struggle, and presumably the 40-episode TV series will be able to show the history of the struggle of the little people to the fullest.

There are no traffic stars, all the strength of the staff

In addition to the strong director and screenwriter, the cast is also very strong.

This time Gao Jalin and Qiaozhen starring Chen Xiao and Li Qin respectively.

Chen Xiao once harvested a wave of popularity for "Menghualu" and "Ice Rain and Fire", and his acting skills are undoubtedly among students of the same age.

From the son of the Flying Prince to the lone hero of Hanger Langdang, Chen Xiao can control it perfectly.

In this "The Road of Life", he challenged Gao Garin, a private teacher from a rural area, for the first time, and only one look can see his tenacity in not renouncing his life and his determination to fight against fate.

As if reading out that line, life cannot wait for others to arrange, you have to fight and struggle for yourself.

Li Qin is Tian Xiao'e in "White Deer Plain", and also the "crazy princess" in "The Legend of Chu Qiao".

With a cold appearance and a white appearance, she actually challenged Qiao Zhen, a Shaanxi village girl (rural girl) who played the rustic Shaanxi village, this time, which is really too big.

However, after the stills came out, you can see that Li Qin appeared almost without makeup, and also did a "tan" treatment, she was unpretentious with two braids, indeed very similar to the girl born and raised in northern Shaanxi in the seventies and eighties, but at the same time there was a light in her eyes.

In addition to the protagonist, there is Ziling Zhang Jiani in "A Curtain of Dreams" in this drama;

Tang Zeng and Liu Wei in "Happiness to Ten Thousand Homes";

Guo Xiaoting, who was recognized for her small fire and acting skills in "Infinite Beyond Class";

There are also Lin Yongjian, He Saifei, Li Guangfu, Zhou Yemang, Huang Meiying, Zhang Tianyang, Yue Hong, Wang Tianchen and other powerful actors who have not appeared for a long time, and the lineup is so strong that people are looking forward to it.

epilogue

"Fate is always undesirable. But it is often in the midst of countless pains, contradictions and hardships that people mature. ”

The reason why "Life" is the most important to Lu Yao is because from the publication of the novel to the release of the film, this work has a great influence, which not only arouses widespread attention from all walks of life, but also allows young people at that time to "rush forward" in the torrent of the times and think about life choices in the sense of "the fate of the motherland and the future of mankind".

When you watch Life, you actually see your own life.

It has changed not only most readers, but also Luyao.

It was based on this that Lu Yao decided to continue to concentrate on writing a long novel, namely "Ordinary World", which reached another peak in literary history.

Finally, don't forget to follow the drama!
