Learn from workers to learn art

After "Bai Lian into Steel", Mao Weining and the screenwriter Wang Chenggang and the chief producer He Jin once again created the industrial -themed TV series "The top priority". "The key TV drama key projects of the" Greeting of the Party's Twenty Congress "cover multiple themes such as agriculture and education, and you need to have such a heavyweight industrial theme work." Mao Weining said.

After receiving the task, the main creative team has been creating from April last year, and has penetrated the leading enterprises such as Zhonglian Heavy Section, Sanyi Heavy Industry, Shanhe Smart, and China Railway Construction in advance. Workers and technicians asked for advice, carried out three rounds of winds for three months, collected nearly one million words and sorting materials, and widely collected vivid deeds and real prototypes among workers in the form of online collection. During the preparation, the crew also organized the starring actors to put on work, rooted in workshops, experience factory life, and learn from workers.

"The creation of industrial theme is very difficult, it is a hard bone. The industrial manufacturing industry involves many professional knowledge and industry background. The creators must first understand it. Secondly, they must be easily expressed by them. With sufficient field survey and shooting preparation, Mao Weining's goal to formulate himself is to integrate the durability of "The Promotion of the Promotion" and "seeking" and "seeking". Familiar with the original appearance of the industry, use the contemporary perspective of the development of industrial development, write the revitalization process of China's industry self -reliance, reproduce the changes in the era of industry, factories and workers, and let the spirit of industrial culture and craftsman deeply penetrate the audience's heart.

Difficulties in shooting -people's emotional expression on machines

During the shooting process, due to the restrictions of practical factors such as venue and new crown pneumonia, the crew set up a lot of scenes with the plot and was restored through special effects such as special effects. If there is a show of the expo, in order to better present the scene in the play, the crew has "held" a expo by itself, and the cost cost is almost the same as the real expo; in order to better complete the hydraulic special laboratory drama, the crew is in the studio's studio I set up a laboratory by myself; in order to shoot the characters in a good drama, I went to the plateau to do equipment extremely cold and encountered the drama of collapse, rollover and wolf groups. The crew copied the plateau scene in the hot Changsha. Wearing winter clothes to interpret the extremely cold drama, and solve the problem of "hack" when speaking through the special effects of the particles in the later period; at the same time, the crew found a few Czech Wolf dogs, while taking a rollover lens, capturing the "wolf" lens, and using the lights to use the lights In conjunction with the snow -making machine, the scene of the wolf group on the plateau was shot. However, in Mao Weining's view, these are not difficulties. The biggest difficulty in shooting the play is actually how to show the "machine" in heavy industry equipment manufacturing enterprises. "We must shoot the relationship between people and machines, that is, people's" affectionate gaze "of the machine, or the machine's" affectionate gaze ". Introduction, the filming of the crew of "The Top Gun" did not start with the actor, but specifically arranged two groups to shoot only the machine. "In the past, we all shot people, and the environment was just the hero's survival background Introduce the background of the story. But this time I ask everyone to take the machine as an actor. We must be particularly familiar with the machine and have feelings for it. "

The lines of "Advanced" involve a large number of professional terms, which also brings a lot of challenges to the actors. Starring Yang Shuo to form the line "muscle memory", even during exercise, he counts the puzzle rate, element table, and the number table; Jiao Junyan was burned when he was learning the welding operation, and he still insisted on "nude makeup".

Group portrait narrative shows the new appearance of the "three workers"

From imitating foreign countries, to independent research and development, to the world's leading, the story of Lu Shan Heavy Industry, which tells the "Administrative", is also the epitome of many Chinese manufacturing companies. Mao Weining wanted to present the great achievements of China's manufacturing and national industry development in front of the audience. "At the same time, we also want to change the stereotype of the audience to the factory." The factory, iron, and oil furnaces are like giant machines and workers who are galloping, but the reality has changed dramatically. "Many workers now have knowledge, culture, and growing up. Such workers should become it. Today, the role models of young people learn and pursue goals. We hope to show the new appearance of industry, factories, and workers in the new era through the work of "The Advanced". "

A good story will eventually fall on the "character". "The Promotion" is based on the development of China's manufacturing industry from the trough to its peak. Through the events, the group portraits with entrepreneurs, engineers, and workers are described. Regarding the characterization of the group narrative, Mao Weining said that the characters must first be real and not suspended; secondly, they must have their own personality.

From "Shan Haiqing", "Awakening", "merit" to "The World", in recent years, the main theme creation has become more and more popular with the audience. Mao Weining believes that the important reason is that the stories and characters in the play are more real, more credible, and more artistic. "It is not a missionary, graphical presentation and slogan expression on the theme, but treating them as art works. Art works are true characters and sincere emotions, and thrilling stories, so that they can infect the audience , Affect the audience. "
