The TV series "Jing Shan Hai" tells the moving story of the grassroots township party members and cadres represented by the protagonists Wu Xiaohao and He Fengshou since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, leading the masses to get rid of poverty and striving to change the face of the countryside. The protagonist uses the bits and pieces of walking in the forefront and doing solid work to show the loyalty, responsibility and hard-working spirit of grass-roots party members and cadres.
TV series "Jing Shan Hai" director Yang Yaya:
"Jing Shan Hai" is about how these grassroots party members and cadres, in the new period, have gone through the mountains and the sea, led the broad masses of the people, and moved toward a more prosperous development path, so that ordinary people can live a good life. I think we should put three brands on this play, namely the brand of life, the brand of the character image, and the brand of the times.
Late-night script reading The main creator creates a fine product with his heart
There is still a week to go, the TV series "Through the Mountains and Seas" is about to be finished, the crew is in the final stage of intense shooting, but in the interval between shooting, director Yang Yaya is still remotely discussing the revision and re-creation of the script with the screenwriting team, and the main creative team and actors have become accustomed to such a scene.
TV series "Jing Shan Hai" actor Wang Likun:
During the filming process, the director often took us to read around, and even went back to read after the end of work.
The director wants everyone to be involved, because everyone may have your own understanding after you play this role, for a period of time, you will have your own understanding, more than others may know what to do, what not to do, what to say, what not to say, put everyone's opinions forward.
△ Script reading
Due to the filming of the night scene, it was close to the early morning when I returned to the crew station. Although there was still intense filming early the next morning, director Yang Yaya and the main creative team continued to read the script to be filmed the next day.
Not only everyone in the main creative team must participate in the reading and collective creation, but even the local grassroots party members and cadres who met during the collection of style are often temporarily invited to participate in the creation and discussion of the crew.
Song Youjin, secretary of the party branch of Guancaowang Village, Lanshan District, Rizhao City:
One night after dinner, Director Yang called me and said that there were some problems in the script that he wanted to discuss with me. It was almost 6 or 7 o'clock when I went and discussed for one night. Director Yang is not sloppy about every detail in the play, and must be truly presented in front of the audience.
Song Youjin is just one of many grassroots party members and cadres interviewed and sourced by the creative team. In the stage of script polishing, the main creative team has visited more than 60 model villages and towns in 5 prefectures and cities in Shandong Province, from the Dai Village of Lanling County, where wang Chuanxi, the model of the times, served to the jiujian village known as the "Yimeng Pearl" of the old red area, the creative team patiently listened to the life stories and poverty alleviation voices of villagers and cadres all the way, interviewed more than 120 representatives of grass-roots party members and cadres, and excavated and shaped a vivid role.
Adhering to the "Five Character Proverbs", it has been created through the mountains and the sea
Zhang Xiaohong, director of the TV series "Jing Shan Hai":
Our five-character motto is "true, new, small, positive, big." This five-word motto has been adhered to since the beginning of creation, including during filming.
"True" refers to going deep into the front line to do interviews, that is, very real material collection. "New" is a very novel theme, and it also shows the style of the new era in which we Communist Party members do not forget their original intentions. "Small" refers to the living and working conditions of the township party organizations and township cadres at the most basic level. "Big" means talking about the great feelings of Communist Party members. "Positive" is a TV series with positive energy and main theme.
Yang Yaya is a well-known director who is familiar with the two fields of television and film, but he confessed to reporters that he felt a heavy responsibility and pressure to direct such a TV series with new rural themes.
TV series "Jing Shan Hai" director Yang Yaya:
The challenge is very big, where is the big, one is the big new, I think it is to write about the new changes in the new countryside we have today, I think this new for us, although for so many years on the line in the creation and shooting, but it is actually very far away from us. When I interviewed these secretaries, the secretaries and town mayors, including those in the village, said that they hoped to see one, and after reading it, they made them cry, made them laugh, and really reflected the image of grassroots party members and cadres. I said, I promise you.
By expressing the life experience of ordinary people's true feelings, the audience is convinced, speaks with facts, and makes real people speak, which has become an artistic concept unanimously agreed by the creative team of the crew.

Tv series "Through the Mountains and Seas" actor Gao Ke'er:
Our main role this time is not a symbolic person, who can see the advantages and disadvantages, including where everyone is different, and can see the changes. For example, when you are not working, you will drink milk tea and eat snacks like young people, not that the cadres that everyone thinks are very serious, and many of these small details will be more interesting.
In order to truly reflect the new changes in the new era and new countryside, the crew insisted on on real-life shooting, from the real Harbor Hill Village to the office of the town government, and even many of the extras that appeared in the play were local villagers. The authenticity of "Through the Mountains and Seas" not only makes the director team more reasonable and based on the creation of the scene, but also allows the actors to find a real life prototype in the performance process.
TV series "Jing Shan Hai" actor Qin Yan:
In fact, we can't talk about understanding the character archetype, we are in the same part with the character archetype every day. When we were filming in that village, all the extras were the villagers in the village, so a lot of that kind of meeting and exchange was true, directly communicating with this fellow, and the fellow called me the secretary, almost all together.

Cheng Shoutian, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the CPC Shandong Provincial CPC Committee:
Our grassroots cadres have been working together with the common people for many years, suffering together, and enjoying themselves together. It can be said that the script of this drama is more written on the earth, in our reality and life.
This work is flesh and blood and life, we can fully believe and expect, we will definitely make it into a ideological, artistic, ornamental unified artistic masterpiece. A gift for the comprehensive construction of a moderately prosperous society and the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party.
Director Yang Yaya told reporters that this work is a collective creation, not only the main creative team of the crew, but also the collective creation of more than a hundred grass-roots party members and cadres. We also look forward to such a well-intentioned and affectionate work to meet the audience on the screen as soon as possible.
