Qinghe Film and Television Base: Expand a new track for the integration of culture and tourism

"Fertile soil" for the production of literary and artistic works

On May 10, the movie "Yellow Sand" was officially launched at Qinghe Film and Television Base, which is not only an absurd comedy, but also a profound discussion about human nature, power and money.

"Yellow Sand" is created by iQIYI and brings together the industry's top creative team. With his unique perspective and keen insight, director Ilic will lead the audience into a world full of surprises and reversals. The joining of Xiao Shenyang, Zhou Dayong, Lin Lexuan and other leading actors has injected a strong acting guarantee into the film. The story revolves around Jia Yizheng, a con artist disguised as a commissioner. Through a series of absurd plots, the film shows the complexity and multifaceted nature of human nature. In addition, the production team of the film also carefully created scenes, costumes and props, etc., in an effort to restore the style of that era.

During the "May Day" period, the red main theme web drama "Life and Death" jointly produced by Beijing Weimu Jinbang Filmmakers, Wu Shanshan Art Troupe and other units, and jointly produced by Beijing Mingshi Brilliant Film Development Co., Ltd. and Zhangjiakou Chuanghua Culture Media Co., Ltd. has completed an 8-day filming at Qinghe Film and Television Base, and has been successfully completed. "Life and Death" is mainly filmed in the bandit cottages, chambers of commerce, streets, and villages of Qinghe Film and Television Base, and the strong atmosphere of the era and perfect service facilities will help the wonderful presentation of the play.

The online drama "Life and Death" is another filmed in Qinghe Film and Television Base after the online drama "Years and Years Know My Mind". During this year's "May Day" holiday, there are four filming crews of "Years and Years Know My Mind", "Life and Death", "Double-faced Female Doctor", "Unforgettable Era" and a set crew in Qinghe Film and Television Base to catch up with the schedule, and a work scene is in full swing. In addition to film and television workers, Qinghe Film and Television Base adopts an outreach operation mode, and the company's outreach staff are specific to each crew, providing a full range of service guarantees for the crew, and effectively doing a good job in shooting scene coordination and other related work.

Chen Maoyue, chairman of the Qinghe Film and Television Base Operating Company, introduced that in order to further promote the development of film and television culture and show the regional folk characteristics, during the festival, Qinghe Film and Television Base carefully planned to launch a number of wonderful programs and interactive experience activities with the theme of "film and television shooting, red inheritance, military deduction, and ancient road pride", so as to create a variety of new formats and scenes of film and television tourism, enrich the holiday life of citizens and tourists, and inject more film and television cultural atmosphere into cultural tourism. Only in the past "May Day" holiday, tens of thousands of people went to Qinghe Film and Television Base to "check in", realizing a new model of integration of film and television and cultural tourism.

A new model of "film and television + cultural tourism" integration

The red lanterns and the brilliant "lights" show the outline of the streets and houses of the Qinghe Film and Television Base, which is beautiful.

On both sides of the road, there are many shops, shops, restaurants, and tea shops, and all kinds of flags and banners are displayed in the wind, and the shouts and shouts come and go. Ring competitions, juggling, county government promotion...... The interesting life scenes truly reproduce the hustle and bustle of the cars and horses of Dajing Gate in ancient times, and the prosperous scene of Zhong Lingyuxiu. Visitors get involved, constantly raising their selfie sticks and having fun.

The sky is high and the clouds are light, and the painted eaves are particularly delicate and gorgeous under the sun. The whole film and television base is based on the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China as a template, the old white wall is hung with advertising paintings of the Republic of China, and the house in the architectural style of the late Qing Dynasty is neat and atmospheric, with gray tiles and white walls, and cornices. The half-open door of the house lightly hides the years, quite the temperament of Ouyang Xiu's sentence "the courtyard is deep and deep".

The sitcom "Ancient Road Pride", created by Qinghe Film and Television Base and Zhangjiakou Opera Art Research Institute, takes the historical culture of Zhangku Avenue and the red culture of the Anti-Japanese War as the background, leading tourists to appreciate the charm of history. A series of wonderful activities such as interactive performances such as "Choosing a Son-in-law", "Welcoming Your Own Child", "Farewell on the Road", "Anti-Japanese Salvation", "Bronze Man Patrolling the Street" and national musical instrument performances, short video shooting contests and costume show photography contests were well received by everyone. At the same time, the film and television role service launched allows on-site tourists to "enter the play in one second", immerse themselves in film and television tourism, and enjoy the scene in the film and television scene.

Walking on the street, you even have the opportunity to see familiar stars filming not far away, as well as busy shooting groups. I saw the extras outside the set, changing their costumes non-stop...... The reporter went to the Qinghe Film and Television Base in Qiaoxi District, and was catching up with the filming crew of the online drama "Life and Death".

After a bombardment, the house collapsed, the ruins scene was realistic and shocking, the glass windows that were blown away without a trace, the broken bricks and tiles, and even the dead trees next to the building were staged "play". "Life and Death" is adapted from real history, deeply excavates the life deeds of the four great men, through the form of dialects and the epitome of modern history, with a strong sense of historical time and ups and downs of the plot, showing the glorious course of the red spirit, bringing the audience into that legendary era and feeling the charm of red classics.

10,000 acres of film and television shooting base

As the city of the Winter Olympics, Zhangjiakou has a rich historical and cultural heritage, as well as many local film and television resources. For example, the TV series "Dajing Gate", "Da Shang Dao", "Plugging the Wind and Cloud", and the TV documentary "Zhangku Avenue" have formed a good reputation and influence among the audience. The presentation of these works directly or indirectly promotes the historical, humanistic and social features of Zhangjiakou. From this point of view, Zhangjiakou has a good cultural resource base for the construction of film and television city.

At the beginning of 2019, the construction of the first film and television base in Zhangjiakou City, Qinghe Film and Television Base, began to undertake, and successfully undertook the filming of the TV series "The Legend of the Plug" in that year, realizing the planning, construction and use of the year.

In 2023, in the courtyard of the "Zhangjiakou Revolutionary Struggle History Exhibition Hall", four exhibition halls will be expanded: "Jinchaji Military Region Headquarters", "Young Deng Yingchao" Tianjin Studio, "Red Army 73rd Division Headquarters War Room" and "Red Cinema", and most areas of the base will be leveled and hardened.

Among them, the "Dajing Gate" is copied according to the original proportion, with the stone as the base, the blue brick as the body, the road under the door is paved with stone slabs, and the wooden iron gate. There are 51 shops in the 200-meter commercial street, including Shengyu grocery store, Song Ji Tea House, Lao Vinegar Fang, Fuxing Hao, etc., all of which reveal the taste of time.

Qinghe Film and Television Base is also trying to make efforts in the integrated development of film and tourism. The base is bordered by the grassland road in the north, Dajing Gate in the south, and adjacent to the Zhangku Ancient Road, which has unique geographical advantages, Chen Maoyue introduced, in the future, the base will take the film and television industry as the core, and the surrounding scenic spots will be linked, and the base will be built into a film and television cultural tourism gathering area. At the same time, the base has also integrated and established 23 film and television locations in surrounding counties (districts), with natural landscapes such as rivers, lakes, forests, deserts, grasslands, ice and snow, etc., which are expected to become new tourist check-in places.
