Screenwriters: Liang Zhenhua, Dong Zhe
Starring: Zhang Jiayi, Zhou Zhouwei, Tan Zhuo, Zhang Tianai, Lü Zhong
In December 2019, Wuhan Jianghan Hospital admitted 7 patients, and the symptoms and development of 7 patients were like a pebble thrown into the lake, stirring up ripples in the busy but ordinary daily work of the hospital.
Cases were detected – attention was raised – cases surged – hospital workloads soared – protective supplies, medical staff, beds were scarce. As the "opening report" of the Times Report Drama, "The Inflection Point of Life" starts from the initial discovery of cases, focusing on the hospital group portrait: in the face of the unknown virus, medical workers stick to the front line of the fight against the epidemic, and patients and families wait anxiously.
"I don't understand how to fight this war of annihilation, do I fight it with my mouth?" Taking Zhang Dingyu, president of Jinyintan Hospital, as the prototype, President Zhang Hanqing vigorously discussed at the hospital meeting, one is to protect the safety of medical staff, and the other is to "collect as much as possible" to treat patients. However, the dean suffered from frostbite and had difficulty climbing the stairs by himself, and in this scene, Zhang Hanqing left the audience with a slightly rickety and very resolute back.
Tan Songlin, the current president of Jianghan Hospital, and Liu Xiaoke, the head nurse, want to be on standby at any time, and in order to ensure the health of their families, they have been living in their own private cars; unfortunately, after being infected with new crown pneumonia, Tan Songlin offered to donate the remains for research if there is an accident.
The old lady who has slept on the bench in the corridor of the hospital since her son was hospitalized, after learning of her son's death, said "it is good not to suffer", which touched the hearts of many people.
On the night of the opening broadcast, the topic #Tribute to female nurses who cut short hair # was on Weibo hot search, in a group of female nurses in order to facilitate the wearing and taking off of protective clothing to cut their hair, the look on their faces transitioned from reluctance to firmness, although there was no line, but it was painful and touching.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > The Ferryman</h1>
Director: Shen Yan, Liu Haibo
Screenwriters: Gao Xuan, Ren Baoru
Starring: Lei Jiayin, Ni Ni, Zhang Jingchu, Jiang Xin
#Lei Jiayin plays the takeaway brother ## Lei Jiayin volunteers to pick up medical care # is a hot topic after the broadcast of the second unit. In the first unit, Gu Yong, the little brother who delivered takeaway food for Tan Songlin and his wife, became the protagonist of the second unit.
Takeaway brother, a group of people who are indispensable and not so conspicuous in urban life. During the epidemic period, Gu Yong, who rode a battery car through the streets and alleys, became the "ferryman" of Wuhan: delivering meals, buying medicine and running errands, transporting medical team members, helping citizens who left Han to find cats and raise cats...
As a delivery man during the day and a driver at night, Gu Yong has witnessed all kinds of difficulties. Among them, there is Ping Xiaoan, a nurse whose pressure value is on the verge of a critical point Chinese New Year's Eve night; the head nurse who takes off her mask in the back seat and breathes the fresh air of the city; and the little girl whose grandmother died of infection and is isolated at home alone.
The "ferryman" who stepped forward at the critical moment witnessed the subtle changes in the city, and through his perspective, the audience truly walked into thousands of households in Wuhan at the beginning of the year, and the main line and branch lines were intertwined, constituting the city's love and blood courage.

The virus rages rampantly, but the "retrogrades" are numerous.
Zhu Bin, a respiratory intern, studied in a hospital in Shanghai, and Rong Yi, a laboratory physician at Wuhan Jinkou First Comprehensive Health Center. In order to reinforce the medical force in Wuhan, the two "marched" to Wuhan from Shanghai and their hometown of Jinghan respectively.
When walking out of the village entrance of his hometown, the landing pole that blocked the road "snapped" and fell, and the expression on Rongyi's face that wanted to turn back but did not dare to turn back made the audience giggle in their hearts.
Due to the lockdown, planes and trains could not go directly to Wuhan, Zhu Bin traveled many times, first arrived in Changsha by green-skinned train, and then rented a car to the destination; Rongyi rode a bicycle through more than 50 kilometers of mountain roads, and then walked on the Yangtze River Bridge.
In the expression of the road film, the story lines of the two protagonists gradually blended, for example, Rongyi came all the way, and changed nearly ten scenes such as home, village entrance, station, Yangtze River Bridge, Huarong Road, etc. During filming, the film crew specially surveyed and planned the two people's travel routes, and also specially announced on Weibo #Together to shoot maps.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Rescuer</h1>
Director: Cao Dun
Screenwriters: Fei Huijun, Li Xiaoliang
Starring: Zhu Yawen, Xu Lu, Zhao Wei, Yu Gaolei, Qu Zhazha, Yin Fang
In stark contrast to the blocked side of the Exit, late at night, a small car drove toward Wuhan carrying Li Jianhui, an expert supporting Wuhan Chuhai Hospital.
The camera of "The Rescuer" is aimed at the intensive care unit of the hospital, and the atmosphere created by the unit director Cao Dun with long shots and dark tones is heart-wrenching, the blood foam coughed up by patients on the floor, the somewhat chaotic ward, and the yellow body bag on the aisle, all of which make people feel a little "breathless".
This unit uses a set of ingenious shots - the only spare ventilator accessories left when rescuing patients are not enough, the picture focuses on the medical tray, using Li Jianhui and the accessories delivery person to run and put the parts on the tray one after another, reflecting the national multi-support for the Hubei medical team.
#Zhou Zhou helped the deceased apply frostbite cream # is a tear point in this unit, the female patient lying in the corridor was terrified by the sudden death of the next bed, nurse Zhou Zhou patiently comforted her, and promised to send her frostbite cream. By the time frostbite cream was brought, the female patient had unfortunately passed away, and Zhou Zhou walked slowly to her bedside and carefully applied frostbite cream to her frostbitten hands... Empathizing with patients, "The Rescuer" shows the professionalism of medical staff while also shaping their flesh and blood side.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Search for 24 Hours</h1>
Director: Liu Jiang
Screenwriter: Xu Su
Starring: Huang Jingyu, Li Xiaoran, Wei Qing, Zhang Xilin
At the beginning of February, cases of pneumonia infected with the new coronavirus appeared in a department store in Baodi District, Tianjin, and it seems that no epidemiological correlation could be found at the time of the onset of the first three cases. The story of "Search for 24 Hours" was born from this.
Finding the source of infection and cutting off the chain of infection is the main responsibility of the CDC. This unit focuses on the 24-hour countdown to the disease control personnel, which brings a gripping feeling to the emotions. The importance and difficulty of "streaming" during the epidemic period is presented in detail in the episode, and after the unit was broadcast, #Seriousness of not cooperating with the streaming survey was immediately on the hot search.
It is worth mentioning that the character setting of Lu Chao, played by Huang Jingyu, also has practical significance, and he is now a staff member of the CDC, because his parents died of SARS infection in the early years, suffering from Asperger's syndrome. In him, there is not only the strength of "one tendon" that does not speak euphemistically, but also the intuition, memory and judgment that are keen on ordinary people, the combination of drama reality and life reality, the professionalism of the dispatchers and the respect of the characters for life, all of which are admired.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >"Higamiyama"</h1>
Director: Yao Xiaofeng
Screenwriter: Feng Ji
Starring: Chen Shu, Lu Yi, Kan Qingzi
Before the plot was broadcast, many viewers looked forward to seeing small forklifts and excavators such as "Little Blue" that were familiar when Yun "supervised the work" at the beginning of the year. However, titled "Vulcan Mountain", this unit does not stop at depicting the process of building Vulcan Mountain, but more depicts how the military doctors who aided hubei fought side by side.
Over and over again, the experienced head nurse who had participated in the fight against SARS tirelessly emphasized protective measures and disinfection steps to the female fighters under her command, and the army's strict position was waiting to pull the audience back to the severe time of the epidemic.
In addition to "treatment", Vulcan Mountain also highlights the power of military doctors through some seemingly unintentional profiles, such as encountering a road collapse on the way to Vulcan Mountain, and the military doctors are divided into two roads, one way to help clear obstacles, all the way to carry weights on foot, and use actual strength to truly practice the line "Vulcan Mountain is the battlefield, here are only warriors, regardless of men and women".
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > "Square Cabin"</h1>
Directors: Wang Jun, Cheng Yuanhai
Screenwriter: Six six
Starring: Jin Dong, Sun Jiayu, Mao Xiaohui, Wang Zijian, Huang Zhizhong
Starting from the stationing of 72 members of the Sichuan medical team in Wuhan, "Fang Cabin" tells the stories of medical staff and mild patients who are optimistic about fighting the epidemic.
Whether it is "shrimp and shrimp and shrimp back to the house water", several telephone calls between Hu Qingsheng on the front line and President Zheng in the rear, or various "entertainment projects" in the square cabin, the narrative style of the unit "Square Cabin" is obviously different in the units, and the audience will occasionally laugh when watching this unit.
President Hu distributed the protective materials he brought to the local medical staff in Wuhan, purchased Coke for the "little soldiers" he brought, and sent bouquets of flowers to each female nurse on Valentine's Day.
However, optimism does not mean that it is not bumpy, "Square Cabin" objectively presents the situation that the facilities are not perfect in the early stage of the construction of the square cabin, the environmental health is not guaranteed, and the small frictions and small contradictions between medical staff and patients are also recorded by the camera, which is real and moving.
The square cabin is like a large ship, carrying patients to a healthy shore, and also bringing hope and a sense of accomplishment to medical workers.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > "My name is Dalian"</h1>
Director: Peng Sanyuan
Screenwriters: Peng Sanyuan, Guo Chengjun
Starring: Deng Lun, Li Qin, Dong Jie, Liu Lin, Li Baihui
This unit story tells the story of the epidemic version of "people on the road".
On the eve of the Spring Festival, Song Xiaoqiang, a young man in Dalian, mistakenly entered the carriage of a returnee from Wuhan on the train and had to stay in Wuhan. In order to have a shelter from the wind and rain, he went to Jiangtian Hospital to apply for logistics personnel, doing cleaning work in the intensive care unit on the ninth floor, and also helping medical staff to lay the groundwork. In the early stage of "forced to volunteer", Song Xiaoqiang was nervous and uneasy, and even had the idea of "fleeing" after his whole body was splashed with the coughed blood of the patient.
"My Name is Dalian" shows the audience a clear and complete line of character growth. In the midnight street, Song Xiaoqiang walked aimlessly on the empty and cold Wuhan Street, and there were citizens holding guitars and singing "Hanyang Gate Garden" on the balcony, and under the impetus of various emotional forces, Song Xiaoqiang became the "guardian of the goddess of the ninth floor" Dalian.
As discussed by netizens in the hot search #Deng Lun Fear is human nature and bravery is personality # topic, fear is not terrible, as long as you have the courage to overcome fear, ordinary people can also do their best to transmit warm power.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Mask</h1>

Screenwriters: Shen Zhining, Li Tian, Xi Bei, Wu Zhongquan
Starring: Hai Qing, Feng Shaofeng, Dong Xuan, Tu Songyan, Duan Bowen
Friendship starring: Bao Jianfeng, Wang Jianguo
Special appearance: Sun Li
During the epidemic period, masks are hard currency that is difficult to find, how did Mei Aihua, director of the knitting factory, change his career to become a "mask businessman"?
Factory operation difficulties, no working capital to repay loans and wages, she bought a batch of masks at a low price in the name of "charity", and then sold according to the market price; but she was very "fighting", no factory, no workers, no machines, no funds, Mei Aihua broke through multiple difficulties to start producing masks to solve the urgent need, and donated the first batch of masks that were qualified to Wuhan.
Like many characters in the various units of "Together", the role of Mei Aihua is not perfect, she chases interests, but also has warmth. In the play, when Kobayashi cries and tells the reason why he can't get married, and the scene where the mask worker does not enter the house and kneels in the direction of his hometown and family, people can't help but think of all the "payrolls".
The audience's hotly discussed #Sun Li playing Fang Jie # can be counted as a small Easter egg in this chapter.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Wuhan People</h1>
Director: Yang Yang
Screenwriters: Zhou Meng, Wang Yaofei
Starring: Liu Min, Jia Nailiang, Ni Dahong, Xi Meijuan, Zhang Meng, Wang Yizhe, Tong Mengshi
As a closing chapter, the story skeleton of "Wuhan People" is enriched by what the staff of Wuhan Pansongyuan Community saw, heard and did.
Among the sentient beings in the community story, there are residents who did not cooperate well in the early stage, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who humbled each other to hospital beds, special groups such as chronic disease patients and pregnant women, and community workers who worked overtime.
Are there no fears and complaints in the hearts of community workers without professional protective equipment?
After loading and unloading the vegetables needed by the community in the heavy rain, #Ding Geometry thought that he was diagnosed and cried and left his last words,# After finding a false alarm, he waved a scarf at the medical team on the bridge like crazy;
Don't know tired?
Tu Fang, who pays attention to "a bunch of harmony", does everything herself, and cannot tolerate sloppiness, on the way to deal with the poor network in the residents' homes and the difficulty of online classes for children, she suddenly fell into a rainy night with a heart attack.
"If medical staff are the main arteries on the road to epidemic prevention, community workers are the capillaries on the road to epidemic prevention." These "capillaries" are spread throughout the streets and alleys of Wuhan, which are easy to ignore, but indispensable, and have always provided convenience and help for citizens in home isolation.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >.· Conclusion</h1>
Ten stories, with the small see the big, with the reality timeline as the benchmark, "Together" began to trace back from the end of 2019, through doctors, patients, citizens, takeaway brothers and other perspectives, multiple aspects, delicate and vivid depiction of civilian heroes anti-epidemic group portrait.
The skillful integration of "real" and "artistic processing", extracting creative materials from real people and real events, and the power of reality make this era report drama more moving.
At the end of the unit, the actors in the play take off their masks in front of the camera and show a smile on their faces, which is the joy after the difficulties and a wish for life. As netizens said, what this drama brings to the audience, in addition to recording the times, is also warning us: "It's almost the end of the year, but don't forget how we put on the mask and how we took off the mask." ”
