A groundbreaking journey of finding a way, the dream of a generation of revolutionary pioneers. In order to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, under the guidance and deployment of the Central Propaganda Department, the major revolutionary historical drama "Hitting the Water in the Middle Stream" produced by the Central Radio and Television Station, produced by the Film and Television Drama Documentary Center of the Central Radio and Television Station, and produced by the China Television Drama Production Center Co., Ltd. will land on CCTV-1 Prime Time tonight (15th). Four major points of interest, such as grand themes, wonderful stories, top lineups, and lofty intentions, will ignite the "Red Boat Spirit" and lead the audience into the glorious course of the Communist Party of China in the decade from 1919 to 1928.
Relive the original mission of the founding of the party and carry forward the "red boat spirit"
In 1921, the Communist Party of China was born on the "red boat" of Jiaxing South Lake, and the ship of the Chinese revolution set sail from here. In 2005, the "Red Boat Spirit" was first advocated and identified as the source of china's revolutionary spirit. Together with the spirit of Jinggangshan, the spirit of the Long March, the spirit of Yan'an, and the spirit of Xibaipo, the "Red Boat Spirit" together constitute the powerful spiritual force and precious spiritual wealth of our party on the road ahead. The TV series "Hit the Water in the Middle Stream" produced by the general station is an affectionate and powerful interpretation of the "Red Boat Spirit".
Led by the "Red Boat Spirit", the drama mainly tells the magnificent history of the decade from the outbreak of the May Fourth Movement in 1919 to the victory of Jinggangshan in 1928, depicting a large number of proletarian revolutionary pioneers such as Mao Zedong, Li Dazhao, Chen Duxiu and Zhou Enlai who adhered to their original intentions, worked hard and made selfless dedication under difficult circumstances, focusing on the purity of the original intention, the truth of doctrine, the firmness of faith, and the beauty of personality of the pioneers of the Communist Party.
Mao Zedong is used as a perspective to tell the story of the Chinese Communist Party's pathfinding process
"Have you ever remembered, hit the water in the middle of the stream, and the waves stopped the flying boat!" The phrase "middle stream hitting water" in Mao Zedong's "Qinyuan Spring and Changsha" means to go to the deep current of the river and fight the terrifying waves, showing a big pattern, great boldness and great realm. After the "red boat" of the Communist Party of China sailed out of the South Lake, it broke through the rapids and dangerous shoals, found the correct course of the Chinese revolution in the torrents of the times, and stepped on the waves.
The founding pioneers of the Communist Party of China were Li Dazhao and Chen Duxiu, but the outstanding practitioner of the Chinese Communist Party's exploration, development, and ultimately finding a revolutionary path suited to China's national conditions was Mao Zedong. Different from other dramas on the theme of party history, "Hitting the Water in the Middle Stream" takes "finding the way" as the theme and unfolds the story from the perspective of Mao Zedong, showing that the Chinese Communists represented by Mao Zedong have gone deep into the workers and peasants, are realistic, and finally find a correct path to integrate Marxism with Chinese practice.
In the play, the two major suspense concepts of "Which road should China take in order to save the nation from peril" and "After determining the road, how should it go on" are carried out throughout. The whole drama shows the glorious course of the pioneers of party building represented by Mao Zedong in coming into contact with Marxism, entering Marxism, exploring Marxism, inheriting and developing Marxism.
"Hit the Water in the Middle Stream" involves a series of major historical events such as the May Fourth Movement, the birth process of the Communist Party of China, the first cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Northern Expedition War, the Zhongshan Ship Incident, the April 12 counter-revolutionary coup, the Nanchang Uprising, the Autumn Harvest Uprising, and the Jinggangshan Huishi, vividly showing their thinking and progress, ups and downs and choices in a specific historical period and the revolutionary torrent. Song Yeming, the general director of the play, read and explained "Hitting the Water in the Middle Stream": "This is a magnificent and magnificent history of the Chinese revolution in the 1920s, and it is also a revolutionary romantic history of the passionate, vigorous, and sunny heroes who fight for faith and truth. ”
Song Yeming and Huang Yaya led the top creators to interpret the glorious years
In order to reproduce the historical process of the Communist Party of China from birth, development to growth in the decade from 1919 to 1928, "Hit the Water in the Middle Stream" gathered the top creative teams in the field of major revolutionary historical dramas in China. The general director of the drama, Song Yeming, has directed many epic masterpieces such as "Diplomatic Storm", "Marshal Peng Dehuai", "Ode to Yan'an" and so on, and his works have won many awards such as the Chinese Film Huabiao Award, the Chinese TV Drama Feitian Award, and the Golden Eagle Award. The screenwriter of the play, Huang Yaya, is a national-level screenwriter, a famous writer, good at the creation of major revolutionary historical themes, representative works include "Deng Xiaoping in the Turning Point of History", "Breaking New Ground", "Sunrise in the East" and so on.

How does Wang Renjun portray The young Mao Zedong who is finding his way for China? How does Li Dazhao, played by Dong Yong, "shoulder morality on iron shoulders and write articles with clever hands"? Xi Wang's interpretation of Yang Kaihui and mao Zedong's revolutionary love for the country and the people... Exciting.
