Inheriting and interpreting classic works
Provide a new path for the adaptation of film and television dramas of literary masterpieces.
Li Jingsheng, vice president of China Federation of Radio and Television Social Organizations, said that the creation of "The Road to Life" is by no means a simple adaptation. The first half of it is based on the original work, and the second half is a continuation of Gao Jialin’s spirit. Before "The Road to Life", there were few adaptations of this form, and only by taking risks can we be brave in innovation. The drama reproduces the features of the times and the stories of the characters in the original, and continues to write the mutual support and mutual achievement of the opportunities of the times and the choices of life from the character characteristics and fate suspense of the original characters.
Chengxiang Zhong, a librarian in central research institute of culture and history and a famous literary critic, believes that the novel Life and the TV series The Road to Life show what is the real transformation of literary thinking into TV thinking. The adaptation of "The Road to Life" has been faithful to the aesthetic appearance presented by the original novel, and has achieved the internal consistency of the aesthetic spirit of the original novel and the creative staff. The successful creation of this drama also shows the persistence and inheritance of the creative road of combining realism with romanticism.
Hong Jinghui, the main creative representative, screenwriter and actor of this play, also elaborated the original intention and purpose of creation from the design details of the fate of the characters from the perspective of creation. Hong Jinghui believes that the success of "The Road to Life" is that we stand on the shoulders of giants, and all the credit and honor come from the original work of Lu Yao, paying tribute to Mr. Lu Yao. Lin Yongjian, on the other hand, said that such a role would leave a deep impression on his career as an actor.
Observe social reality
Arouse the young audience’s resonance about youth and struggle
The coverage of "The Road to Life" is very extensive for people of different ages, different education levels and different consumption levels. It is particularly noteworthy that the audience aged 18 to 44 accounts for more than 83%. The play has a strong appeal to younger audiences.
Li Chunli, deputy director of the Literature and Art Department of Guangming Daily, believes that Gao Jialin’s ups and downs have touched countless people from the high loess slope to the bustling city. The young people born in poverty in the works are eager for knowledge to change their destiny, and the difficult choices about career and love show people’s current confusion and pursuit. It is this concern for reality that has aroused the resonance of the current audience and added the characteristics of the times.
Liang Xiangyang, vice chairman of Shaanxi Writers Association, director of the Literature Research Center of Luyao and Educated Youth of Yan ‘an University, and author of Luyao Biography, believes that Life resonated strongly in the hearts of ambitious young people in the vast rural areas when it was published. The TV series can be called "the sequel of Shanghai version of Life", which puts the fate of the characters in the background of China’s 40 years of reform and opening up and strengthens the theme of the struggle of Life.
The director of this drama also said that in decades of creative experience, only this drama is not treated simply as a project, but another step in his life. "The Road of Life" is a tribute to Lu Yao, to that era and to youth. I hope to have a sincere exchange and dialogue with contemporary youth with such a work.
"A drama with fire makes a city"
Two-way trip to film and television and cultural tourism
Literary and artistic creation can help the economic development of local cultural tourism, which is a responsibility of TV art creators.
Liu Bin, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of Yulin Municipal Committee of Shaanxi Province, said that Lu Yao’s works have influenced generations of people in northern Shaanxi and promising young people all over the country. The Road to Life truly reflects the struggle spirit of Yulin people who are positive, do not bow to difficulties, are indomitable and want to do great things, reflect the struggle course of a generation of young people, and reflect the geographical features of Yulin. Yulin people are scrambling to watch it, which has caused a wave of watching dramas.
He Jing, the county magistrate of Qingjian County, Yulin City, Shaanxi Province, believes that a drama can completely bring fire to an industry, and a drama can completely develop the city in this regional center. Qingjian County will take Life Film and Television City as the new engine, polish the tourist business card of "Luyao’s hometown, Northland scenery", create a first-class business environment, and take Qingjian’s cultural tourism industry to a new level.
