The scene of the expert symposium and premiere of the movie "Liu Qing"
1905 Film Network Special Article On May 20, the movie "Liu Qing" held an expert symposium and premiere ceremony in Beijing. Director Tian Bo introduced the various experiences of polishing a film for 6 years, and shed tears when talking about emotional places. The lead actor Cheng Taishen also shared with the experts present that he played Liu Qing and hoped to talk to Liu Qing in the depths of his soul. Many experts discussed the shooting techniques and intentions of "Liu Qing" at the meeting.
Liu Qing came to the countryside from the city, rooted in Huangfu Village in Shaanxi Province for more than ten years, wrote a "History of Entrepreneurship" on the land of Guanzhong, and became the standard-bearer of the "Literary Shaanxi Army". During the filming of the documentary "Lu Yao", director Tian Bo learned about Liu Qing, Lu Yao's literary mentor, was deeply inspired, and decided to shoot a biopic for this literary master.
As the first batch of literary and artistic standard-bearers cultivated by the party, Liu Qing has no complaints and no regrets, always adheres to the supremacy of the people, firmly believes in the party's belief, keeps in mind his original intention, and forges ahead. When I calmed down to read his works, I naturally approached that era and learned how our country moved towards national independence and national self-reliance. Talking about his original intention of shooting "Liu Qing", Tian Bo was full of emotions. And running for this movie for 6 years also made him cry at the symposium.

Playing Liu Qing this time, Cheng Taishen said that he understood Tian Bo's difficulties, and revealed that when he fell into several creative difficulties, he became the only object of the director's talk. Although he has played many historical figures, this time playing a writer, Cheng Taishen believes that he needs to enter Liu Qing's spiritual world and understand what he does.
"As a small actor, when I am acting, in the tunnel of time and space, I often think about what is really real? I was thinking that if Mr. Liu Qing could go into the depths of my soul, I would give him everything. I completely let Mr. Liu Qing's spirit be released in me in this movie. I think this kind of truth of his is the conscience of China for five thousand years, and this conscience is definitely the source of living water, it is alive, and it is definitely not a concept or a text, or a viewpoint or an article. Cheng Taishen sighed with emotion.

In the movie, in order to take root in the countryside, Liu Qing changed out of her suit and leather shoes, chose to shave her hair, and put on the same clothes as her fellow villagers, which made the experts at the symposium scene all moved. Yuan Xinwen, director of the literature and art department of the People's Daily, said when talking about the film that the film is full of fireworks, because Liu Qing is a writer closely related to the word "life" and is a writer of the people. He said: "This Liu Qing is very close to Liu Qing in life, and the image of Liu Qing is truly and artistically restored. ”

As a biographical film, "Liu Qing" is also very literary, and the schedule may not be able to compete with commercial blockbusters. Jiao Hongfen, secretary of the party committee and chairman of China Film Group and chairman of China Film Co., Ltd., mentioned that the People's Theater Line, campus theater line and art alliance should be the screening positions of such films. He said that in order for a biographical film to attract audiences to the theater, it takes a lot of work, and the schedule also needs to be understood. However, as one of the producers, China Film will also participate in and do a good job in the work that the distributor of "Liu Qing" should do.

Although "Liu Qing" is the first feature film directed by Tian Bo, it has been coordinated by the famous screenwriter Reed and the famous art director Huo Tingxiao. Li Daoxin, deputy dean and professor of the School of Arts of Peking University, said that the film has the participation of these two well-known filmmakers, and the artistic standard and audio quality are quite good. In his view, the significance of this film lies in the inheritance of Liu Qing's spirit, and it is necessary for more young students and children to understand Liu Qing, know Liu Qing, read the "History of Entrepreneurship", and realize the relay of spirit and culture.

Deng Kai, executive director of the Literature and Art Department of Guangming Daily, mentioned at the meeting that he had also been to Liu Qing's hometown in northern Shaanxi, and in such a vast world, he felt Liu Qing's literary world. He mentions the scene at the end of the film, where Liu Qing stands on the mound and watches the morning sun rise. This shot is quite moving. Deng Kai said: "I think that if Mr. Liu Qing is still alive, he should be relieved to see this movie." From this movie, I think he found a confidant. ”

"If you want to shape a hero, you must first shape yourself." This is a widely quoted sentence of Liu Qing. At the meeting, some experts mentioned that from "Liu Qing", we saw a "love" word that reached the heart, which was Liu Qing's love for the people; the director and creative team's deep affection for Liu Qing, as well as the audience's deep affection for the party, the state and the entrepreneurs of the older generation after watching the film.
