The TV series "Sea of Stars" began broadcasting tonight on Hunan Satellite TV and Youku. The drama is directed by Yu Ding, written by Su Xiaoyuan, and starring Liu Tao, Lin Feng, Lu Fangsheng and Chai Biyun. The story is based on the small town girl Jane Ai going south to start a business, reflecting the changes in life and business development in the process of changing times in the past 30 years since the 1990s.
The drama focuses on the story of women's growth and new entrepreneurship, depicting the entrepreneurial grand plan of personal fate and the trend of the times, and personal dreams and the hot confrontation of the times.
A symphony of personal dreams blended into the development of the times
In the story, the 30 years of Jane Ai's (Liu Tao) growth are also the 30 years of the rapid development and rise of our country. In the tide of the era of reform and opening up, her transformation from a noodle shop girl to a strongman in the business world not only stems from Jane Ai's unremitting pursuit of a better life, but also benefits from the great practice of the country's reform and opening up, which is a symphony of personal dreams integrated into the development of the times.
Through the China Import and Export Fair, Jane Ai has harvested foreign customers who are quite related to herself, and has signed export trade orders with them many times; since China joined the World Trade Organization, Jane Ai has followed the trend and developed Jian Ai's foreign trade and developed into international cooperation; in response to the government's strategy of "going out" and integrating into the world economic system, Jane Ai has entered Southeast Asia to build factories, which not only solves the pain points of the company's operation, but also makes the national brand go to the world. Everything that Jane Eyre has achieved is closely related to the rapid development of the motherland.
And she has always been grateful for what she has. While continuing to work hard, she also actively fulfills her social responsibilities. After the outbreak of the global economic crisis, she vigorously accepted the downstream garment factories, helped the textile women workers of the whole factory to maintain their livelihoods, and protected the stability of the small family and everyone; then she also actively drove the garment factory back to her hometown, fed the society, benefited the fathers and elders of her hometown, and personally showed the style of a private entrepreneur with Chinese characteristics.
It is reported that "The Sea of Stars" has taken pains to restore a real and convincing era in the era scene. For example, the sewing machine that appears many times in the early stage of the series, the large amount of cash stored in Jane Eyre's family, the price of each bowl of noodles and condiments in the noodle shop, and the pager that Jane Ai carries with her in the later period, all of which are quite laborious in historical texture. At the same time, the actor's costume is also a precise capture of the atmosphere of the times.
Cross-era context showing "she struggles"
Unlike other women's entrepreneurship dramas, "The Sea of Stars" is a cross-era drama that shows the growth of women. The plot runs through all the growth moments of the heroine Jane Ai in the first half of her life, focusing on the road of Jane Ai's dream, starting from the background of the times and reality, and shaping a new independent female image through detail polishing.
The main creative team hopes to reflect the spirit of "she struggles": to fight for a happy life, to find true love can be moths to put out the fire, not to be a vassal and lose moral beliefs, with an open and inclusive attitude to absorb talents and heal themselves. And while firmly aiming and bravely expressing themselves, it also helps more women escape from the dilemma of thinking, pursue self-growth and value, and finally find their own happiness.
In addition, the series shows the character image and economic form from different dimensions, integrating the spirit of contemporary youth into it and making the audience better understand. Small town girl Jane Ai, from nothing to the creation of a national brand, adhere to the heart to seize the opportunity to dare to break through, and achieve mutual achievements with the times; the heir of the group, Fang Hengzhi (Lin Feng), is bound by family and interests, but calm and firm, and finally keeps Yunkai; Li Yiming (Lu Fangsheng), the only son of the state-owned factory director, has the courage to act, goes to the sea to do business, and is a quality person; the deputy mayor of the town holds the pearl Wenxin (Chai Biyun) in the era and has made small achievements in the industry. The four characters with different family backgrounds and personalities have the shadow of not forgetting their original intentions and bravely shouldering their responsibilities, they are the shimmering figures in thousands of societies, and they are also one of the pioneers of the times.
"Sea of Stars" tries to refract the changes of the times with typical characters and express the spirit of the times.
