01 The original male protagonist was Jiang Wen
In 1994, as soon as the "Parental Love" created by military writer Liu Jing was published, it was taken by Jiang Wen. He found Liu Jing and bought the film rights to the novel for 50,000 yuan.
At that time, Liu Jing had no feeling for the movie at all, and the film script written by the film was changed and changed again and again, which did not satisfy Jiang Wen, and finally failed.
Later, Ni Ping and her husband Yang Yaya also found screenwriter Liu Jing, hoping that she could change it into a TV script. As a result, liu Jing, who was greedy, did not put her mind on the script at all, and the sloppy book finally did not have the following.
Later, Cao Huayi, the boss of Xinli Media, found Liu Jing again, and after learning that the book had long been bought out by Jiang Wen, he contacted Jiang Wen, who happily agreed to play the role of Jiang Defu and planned to find director Zheng Xiaolong.
Finally, due to scheduling reasons, Jiang Wen and Zheng Xiaolong were not eligible for this drama.
02 The screenwriter is not satisfied with Guo Tao
When screenwriter Liu Jing saw Guo Tao playing Jiang Defu on the set, he instantly became angry: Anjie is like a flower and a jade and has knowledge, how can he look at Jiang Defu with swollen eyes? Even if the actor is not a talent, at least he has to be justified, right?
Fortunately, during that visit, Liu Jing saw the play played by Liu Lin, the actor of Dehua, and was immediately conquered by the actor's acting skills. She understood what it meant to be unsightly.
Until after watching the entire play, Liu Jing was convinced by Guo Tao's performance.
03 The three actors are a family of three
Wang Hong, who plays Jiang Changyi, is the actor who pretends to be Jiang Defu's son, but in fact, he is father and son with Wang Yongquan, the actor of Deputy Political Commissar Wang. When Wang Hong's mother actor Sun Xiaohui came to visit her son and husband, it happened that the crew was filming the scene of Jiang Weiguo going to the health station to bandage.
Originally, this scene was passed by, and director Kong Sheng felt that it was not real, so he pulled Sun Xiaohui to make a cameo appearance as the head nurse.
04 The group who filmed this drama all cried
Ouyang Yi, who was originally arrogant and arrogant, has been holding his tail between his legs because he was beaten to the right.
After the rehabilitation, there was a scene, Anjie and Jiang Defu feasted on Ouyang Yi, drank three rounds, and Ouyang Yi, who had been suppressing his emotions, directly broke out, venting his heartache for so many years by "I am Ouyang Yi, not Lao Ou".
The crew was crying when filming this scene. After filming, Liu Yijun, who played Ouyang Yi, still cried, and the atmosphere at the scene was also very solemn, and director Kong Sheng kept comforting Liu Yijun with tears.
05 Interior 1:1 scale construction
Because there are many scenes in the play in the 1950s and 1960s, in order to restore the truth, the crew built a naval compound, in order to find a place that can face the sea, the crew traveled all over the Shandong Peninsula, and finally rented a place without modern buildings in Qingdao to build a house, and after filming, it returned to its original state.
06 Mei Ting gave birth to a child borrowed from Korean comedy
At that time, Mei Ting was divorced and single when filming this drama, and had no experience of having children. At that time, in order to shoot the scene where Anjie gave birth to a second son at home, the director found a Korean comedy film and let Mei Ting learn the exaggerated and hoarse performance method of the actress in the play when she gave birth.
Later, this scene Mei Ting passed, and when she really gave birth to a child, she also borrowed the way in the play.
07 Buses pushed by people
There are several scenes in the play where Anjie and Jiang Defu are sitting on a bus. Because the prop car was in disrepair and could no longer work, you saw that the moving car was actually pushed by the crew.
The play "Parental Love", without dog blood, but warm enough, is a drama that is enough to brush N times but is not addictive.
And now that 9 years have passed, looking back at the spring and summer of 2012, the figure of director Kong Sheng appears in the gap of every shooting tidbit: reading the script, taking the actors to the position, personally cameoing... Enough care to have this best period love drama.
