The ceiling of domestic dramas and the masterpiece of family dramas, "Parents' Love" has become another classic.
The audience is looking forward to a sequel or remake.
The plot is bland and exciting, and the actors are low-key and serious, but now it is difficult to get together again.
What's more important is that the person who made the show has long since passed away, which has become the biggest regret.
Liu Jing: A story based on parents
"This drama is based on my real experience, but unfortunately my life did not come to an end. ”
Screenwriter Liu Jing used one sentence to explain the reason why "Parents' Love" is so popular.
The military father is upright and kind, and the mother is gentle and understanding.
She grew up in an open family environment, which also developed her strong and unyielding character.
Like Jiang Defu, Liu Jing's father is a big boss, not good at words but strong.
Although her mother is a housewife, the complexity of life has not diluted her yearning for literature and art.
I always hold a book to read when I rest, which gives Liu Jing the best environment for enlightenment.
The other children were running and playing in the streets, but she was the only one who quietly nestled at home and read a book.
Later, she was more literate and more aware of the truth that Yan Ruyu and the Golden House were in the book.
Before going to bed at night, the mother and daughter had more sleep aids.
Her mother was busy sewing and mending her tattered clothes, while Liu Jing was holding a textbook and reading the text to her.
As she grew older, she no longer limited herself to reading books, but began to write.
From small essays to long essays, essays are often posted on bulletin boards as model essays.
This hobby prompted her to make the Chinese Department of Shandong University her goal, but unfortunately she missed it by a few points.
When I went to the Xi of the Literature Department of the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts, life was as calm as a pool of stagnant water.
After graduation, ordinary people get married and have children, repeating their mother's life.
But at the beginning, she was far less great than her mother, and the family's food and drink were already enough for her to be busy.
How can there be any mind to continue the dream of writing on his own.
Seeing her daughter gradually lose herself, her mother reminded her: In addition to being a wife and a mother, you are also yourself.
A sentence came to Liu Jing's heart, and the fountain pen that had been shelved for many years was brought up again.
This led to the advent of the novel "Parents' Love", which was published in the "People's Liberation Army Literature and Art" newspaper in 1994.
The unpretentious writing complements the plain and happy family story, and has gained a large number of readers.
It was also favored by a group of directors, and they threw olive branches one after another, and actor Jiang Wen directly bought the copyright of the novel.
At first, Liu Jing didn't have the idea of adapting it into a TV series, but with the death of her mother, her mentality changed greatly.
Not being able to let her mother see her work on TV became her biggest regret.
After this incident, Liu Jing began to work on adapting the script, but God did not fulfill people's wishes, and her own body also had problems.
She was diagnosed with cancer in 2010, but she still insisted on participating in the entire production of "Parental Love".
In 2012, the TV series started filming, and she personally participated in the selection of actors, which was broadcast in 2014.
Seeing that the audience's evaluation was good, she quit with peace of mind, but in fact, there are many more of her little selfishness in the play.
Shandong University, which was not admitted, was completed by Jiang Yaning for her.
In 2003, the regret that his mother was ill and could not be successfully rescued was made up for by the elderly An Jie.
Watching the family reunion in the play, Liu Jing finally showed a long-lost smile.
Five years later, Liu Jing passed away without regrets, ending her 58-year life.
Her death also made countless people heartbroken, and the whole crew of "Parents Love" mourned for it.
It is said that the sequel was originally being planned, but with the death of the screenwriter, the matter was put on hold.
I'm afraid it will be difficult to start in the future, because the actors in the play cannot be replaced.
Guo Tao: "Robbed" Jiang Defu from Jiang Wen
"If you want to get the copyright, you have to make me the leading actor. ”
At this time, Jiang Wen handed over the only condition for the copyright of the novel adaptation, because An Jie in the play is very much like his mother, and Jiang Wen has a soft spot for this novel.
Director Kong Sheng was also happy to see that he agreed to the establishment of Ma and successfully obtained the copyright.
But later, Jiang Wen was busy with his own directing career, so he gave up the opportunity to play Jiang Defu.
This role was passed on several times later, and finally fell to Guo Tao.
Everything is difficult at the beginning, and as soon as the news that Guo Tao will play this role came out, almost everyone was not optimistic.
Even screenwriter Liu Jing was quite critical at first, her appearance was sloppy and rude, and she didn't want to write the honest Jiang Defu no matter how she looked at it.
But with the filming of the TV series, it instantly became a large-scale "real fragrance scene".
seems to be a big boss, but he is a little careful in his bones.
Especially when playing against An Jie, it is like getting along with his parents, and it is perfect to play Jiang Defu.
The effect of the broadcast later also proved this, if it is really Jiang Wenyan, it may not be in this state.
It's just that Guo Tao is like a flash in the pan, and he didn't become popular like other leading actors.
On the contrary, it is because of the previous "arrogant words" that have been questioned.
The person who loves his wife so much in the play has changed outside the play.
According to the "three from the four virtues" to classify women, the feudal idea is in the right way.
Although he publicly explained and apologized in the end, the filter of "Jiang Defu" had already been shattered, and he could no longer play his previous state.
Mei Ting: It's just an alternative to "An Jie".
It is said that good things are grinding, and the drama "Parents' Love" has indeed undergone multiple polishing to be released.
Like Guo Tao as Jiang Defu, the casting of the heroine "An Jie" also has a lot of twists and turns.
Screenwriter Liu Jing attaches great importance to this role, and put forward two rigid requirements at the beginning of casting.
It is necessary to look both literate and peasant women.
It seems that two simple conditions can be gathered on one person, but it is not so easy.
There will always be a cold atmosphere on the body of the educated lady, but how can a housewife look elegant?
The director was the first to think of Niu Li, and invited her to audition.
Liu Jing only said two words at first glance, "make do", although it was a little reluctant, it was already a high evaluation compared to others.
never thought that in the end, Niu Li would take the initiative to quit because of schedule problems, and seeing that the boot was imminent, the heroine had not yet landed.
Later, a friend recommended Mei Ting, and Liu Jing's eyes lit up when she saw her.
Because of practicing dance since childhood, Mei Ting has an innate arrogance, which just matches the capitalist lady in the play.
And the deep dark circles under her eyes gave her a sense of haggardness, like a woman who was tired of working for her family.
There is no problem with the image, let alone the acting skills.
From youth to old age, the time spanning half a century is vividly reflected in her.
has both the tenderness of being a wife and the strength of being a mother, which provoked screenwriter Liu Jing to applaud.
Especially when the old An Jie was sick and hospitalized, he finally woke up after a few days in a coma.
The children and grandchildren are all around, and the wife is also on the side, and many viewers cried.
Mei Ting has also become the representative of "An Jie", except for her, everyone also performs the taste of "An Jie".
The supporting characters and the protagonists can't hold back their brilliance
In addition to the two male and female protagonists in the play, the supporting characters are also just as exciting, and any one can be the protagonist.
The dedicated sister-in-law "Dehua", played by Liu Lin, can't hide the simple rudeness of rural people.
And Liu Lin also ushered in the peak of her career because of this drama, and also participated in another work "We Are Young" written by Liu Jing.
Later, with the role of "Big Lady" in "Do You Know If You Should Be Green, Fat, Red and Thin", she occupied a place in costume dramas.
And her husband "Lao Ding" Ren Shuai in the play is also irreplaceable.
In the play, his relationship in the first half of his life went through several twists and turns, and finally he and Dehua finally achieved a positive result.
But Ren Shuai in real life is a rare good man, who married an "ugly wife" like Dehua.
Middle-aged and famous, but still in love with his wife, the family of three is very happy.
And Lao Ding's deceased wife "Wang Xiu'e", her actor Liu Tianchi can be said to be the most contrasting role.
In the play, she is full of swearing, untidy clothes and unhygienic, but outside the play, she is an acting teacher who has educated countless people.
Yang Shuo, Deng Chao and others were all her students, although they did not appear in many film and television dramas, but they were high-quality products.
Now she puts all her energy behind the scenes, and has become the person who "makes stars", continuously sending talents to the entertainment industry.
And the other actors in the crew are shining in their respective fields, and it is really difficult for Tiannan and Haibei to get together.
In mid-December this year, at a red carpet event, Mei Ting, Liu Lin, Guo Tao and Liu Yijun gathered together.
In the photo, they hold up the "ten" gesture to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the broadcast.
couldn't help but set off a shot of memory, and netizens reacted at this time, it turned out that ten years have passed since "Parents' Love".
Classic chants have been circulated, and good works have lasted for a long time.
To this day, there are still viewers who fantasize about hearing about a remake or sequel, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve.
I really hope that domestic dramas can be performed like "Parents' Love", with more classics.
