Zhang Guoqiang Chen Xiaoyi plays a small couple in a big city
"Xijing Story" is picked by the old drama bones Zhang Guoqiang and Chen Xiaoyi. In the play, the two powerful actors will join forces to play an ordinary couple who work hard from the countryside to the big city to support their children's "great cause of study", which makes people feel looking forward to it.
In Xijing City, Luo Tianfu witnessed the difficulties of the small people around him in the big city, and he also experienced various hardships, the cake shop business was repeatedly frustrated, his wife Shuhui was dissatisfied with his "stubborn and old", and his son Luo Jiacheng could not adapt to the living conditions from the countryside to the city and constantly ran away from school, and the heavy blows kept coming, making him doubt for the first time that he had doubted his outlook on life and values that he had adhered to for many years. Whether it is right or wrong to do so on his own, and whether the city is really not suitable for people like him who "stick to the old ways" to survive. The support and encouragement of his daughter Luo Jiaxiu made Luo Tianfu regain his confidence, and those who had accepted Luo Tianfu's help also helped him in turn, and the entangled contradictions were resolved one by one. The Luo family finally took root in the big city of Xijing and continued to move towards a better future. Shi Anne, who played her daughter Luo Jiaxiu at the press conference, said that she greatly admired Zhang Guoqiang and Chen Xiaoyi, two predecessors, who were like brothers and sisters, and also like real parents. In addition to filming, they are brothers and sisters who can talk about the world, and when filming, they can give young actors guidance like elders, and the two teachers are very dedicated and worth learning.

Rural families challenge urban life to face the pains of the development of the times
The history of urban struggle of two generations presented in "Xijing Story" not only makes the contradictions arising from social development and urban-rural integration have been dissected from multiple angles and at a deep level, but also through the confrontation between father and son in the attitude of life, the exploration of the difference in concepts between generations can be completed - when society is renewed, the way of self-realization is no longer immutable, what is the chip that can be thrown, and what is the original intention that must be adhered to? Just as actor Wang Cong shared his personal experience with the audience at the press conference, after graduating from Chinese opera, as a foreigner working alone in Beijing, tasting the sour, sweet and bitter, and also adhering to the actor's dream with the spirit of the newborn calf who is not afraid of the tiger. Wang Cong said that he brought some of the feelings of the North Drift into the role, tried anti-number one for the first time, liked this challenge, and hoped that the performance could be recognized by the audience.

The story of the play goes from the plight of the father's disappointed expectations to the cruel youth of the second generation, pointing to the pains that must be experienced in the rapidly developing society. All sentient beings in the wave of social development inevitably have enterprising ambitions. Lu Shan's ambition made him unscrupulous, hurting the kind Jia Xiu again and again. Jia Cheng's ambition also put him in prison several times. Even Tianfu and Shuhui were not exempt from vulgarity, and they debated endlessly over the principles of cake stall management. Every choice is worth thinking about.
