The Xuanwu Lake that Qiao Daddy wants to jump, the Sha hat alley where Qiao's family has lived since childhood, the bustling Xinjiekou... Many landmark buildings in Nanjing are not uncommon in "Children of the Qiao Family", taking countless audiences to tour the old Nanjing of the last century.
However, in order to restore the real style of the times, the drama can not only work hard in these places, but also hides many details in the play. Let's incarnate as "Leeuwenhoek" and see how rigorous the details of "Children of Joe's Family" are!
Small details in the social landscape
As one of the representatives of "scumbag daddy", Daddy Joe can be described as eating, drinking and gambling. The children in the family are waiting to be fed, but he still has the leisure to gamble in other people's homes. Qiao Yicheng couldn't look at it, and he reported his own father with his backhand. The police officers who arrested and interrogated Qiao Zuwang and others at the time were wearing The Type 72 blue uniform, echoing the age of 1977, when the story began. (PS: gambling is illegal, don't imitate it!) ）
Qiao Zuwang, who is delicious and lazy, has always relied on his iron rice bowl, but he has not escaped the fate of being suspended by the factory without pay, which coincides with the outbreak of the wave of suspension of work in the early 1990s of the world, and many workers have found another way out. But Qiao Zuwang usually did not work hard, and after the suspension of salary, he could only take a rope to the factory director's house to "cry twice and hang himself three times."
Unlike the self-contained Qiao Zuwang, Simei boldly integrated into the tide of the times. She resigned from the printing house, bravely went to the hotel to apply, performed "a fire in winter" in front of the interviewer, and successfully entered the hotel to work.
At this time, she was only 19 years old, which was also completely consistent with the time dark line of 1992 in the play.
The scene on the day Qiao Yicheng joined the TV station also contains the ingenuity of the drama side. Nian Bai mentions that it was the Sixth Plenary Session of the 13th Central Committee, which is in line with the background of the times in 1990 and also reflects Qiao Yicheng's pure heart as a journalist. The Rainbow Kirin logo of Nanjing TELEVISION Station that appears in the play also corresponds to the time of that year, and the Nanjing TV station logo was changed to its current appearance in 2013.
Not only the clothing and work reveal a full sense of the times, but even the cars that appear on camera are exquisite. In episode 18, Qiao Yicheng sent Ye Xiaolang to a red taxi, which was not a "running dragon suit" that was found casually, but the most numerous and common red Xiali in Nanjing in the 90s.
A small foreshadowing in pop culture
Joe's sons and daughters are also at the forefront of pop culture. Remember that Qiao Simei went to Beijing alone to listen to Fei Xiang's brother's concert in order to chase the stars? That was a lot of anger for the eldest brother Joe, and his white hair was bubbling. At that time, the concert that Simei watched was Fei Xiang's 1989 tour.
The concert was one of the most popular national tours ever performed in China, with unprecedented success.
There is such a movie, which became a "god assist" in the love stage between Qiao Yicheng and Ye Xiaolang, and it is the popular "Big Satan". The film, starring Ge You and Xu Fan, was released in China in 1992. The film tells the story of Gu Yan and Lin Zhouyun who sent their partners to the other side of the ocean, and they felt good about each other in loneliness but always left.
Don't underestimate this detail, this is one of the important foreshadowings in the play. After watching the movie, Ye Xiaolang and Qiao Yicheng also discussed the heroine's choice to go abroad, which also indicated that Ye Xiaolang eventually made a move with Qiao Yi because of going abroad.
The details buried by the drama party are more than this, a small spoiler, and there will be many buried small foreshadowings in the subsequent plot! Better to raise the magnifying glass, lock the Jiangsu Satellite TV vivo X70 Happiness Theater at 19:30 every night, and unlock more hidden details!
