Zhang Yi refused to star in Chicken Feather Fly to the Sky, and Yin Tao missed the Golden Eagle Award. Audience: How did she win the prize?

2065438+June 65438+June 07, at the 23rd Magnolia Award Ceremony held in Shanghai Oriental Art Center, Zhang Yi beat Sun, Huang Lei and Chen Jianbin and won the title of Best Actor.

In his acceptance speech, he said: "Without Luo Yuzhu of Yin Tao (pause), there would be no Chen Jianghe of Zhang Yi, and without Mr. Shen Jie, there would be no perfect match."

This seemingly polite scene is actually from Zhang Yi's heart. Because behind this sentence, there are many bitter and unknown past events.

Originally, Zhang Yi didn't want to play Chen Jianghe at first, but now she won the honor of being an emperor with this play. Naturally, he would like to thank Yin Tao, who created him, and Shen Jie, who worked hard to write the script.

So, why did Zhang Yi take the show later? What did screenwriter Shen Jie do for the play? Next, let's talk about the behind-the-scenes story of chicken feathers flying into the sky.

20 1 1 In March, Wu Jiaping, the owner of Hangjiaping Film Company, sat in a hotel in Beijing and chatted with the screenwriter Shen Jie. After chatting, Wu Jiaping told Shen Jie what he had hidden in his heart for many years: "I want to make a TV series that reflects the growth process of Yiwu businessmen. Are you interested? "

Shen Jie has long wanted to write a realistic work. After hearing what Wu Jiaping said, he became interested, so the two hit it off and started cooperation for six years.

Shen Jie is from Beijing. He has never been involved in the creation of commercial themes before. He believes that if you want to write a script of "grounding gas", you must integrate into local life. To this end, he deliberately spent a year and a half to experience life in Yiwu.

During this period, Shen Jie not only consulted a lot of information, but also started a small business like the locals, eating and living with small vendors, drinking and purchasing goods together.

At first, Shen Jie put the story on Yiwu vendors represented by Chen Jinshui in 1970s and 1980s. It only took him a year and a half to write a diversity outline of1.2000 words.

However, he felt that the outline was still a little regrettable, because it could not reflect the ever-developing Yiwu, so he resolutely gave up the script he had written before and reset the story in the process of three generations' transformation from small vendors to self-employed individuals to entrepreneurs.

In this way, the play is bound to be full of chronological characteristics, and it is likely that it will be inconsistent with the facts after it is filmed. Shen Jie was worried that the audience would be rejected because of their age span, so he had to revise it again.

In order to break through the bottleneck that the main theme is too correct and the audience lacks singing skills, Shen Jie added emotional drama to the script to please the audience, and adapted it into a story with both a hard entrepreneurial history and a passionate emotional history.

In this way, tossing and turning, Shen Jie spent four years writing the script of Chicken Feather Fly to the Sky.

After the script was written, Wu Jiaping called Yu Ding, the director who often cooperated, and said that he had a script about the real development of Yiwu and wanted him to shoot it.

However, Yu Ding has other scripts in his hand, which are being prepared, so he doesn't want to take them.

Wu Jiaping advised him: "This script is very good, and the screenwriter Shen Jie is also our old partner. You believe me, there is absolutely nothing wrong with shooting this. "

At Wu Jiaping's strong request, Yu Ding opened the script of Chicken Feathers Flying to Heaven that night. Who knows this, he was attracted by the story of how Zheshang Group was determined to innovate, so he decisively pushed off other film contracts.

In a later interview, he said: "As a director, I have made many types of TV dramas, but I haven't met a script that can impress me like Fly to the Sky. A good script will make people feel the urge to shoot, so I took the play. "

Then, Yu Ding began the preliminary preparation and project establishment of the crew. During the preparation period, he also did not forget to pay attention to the right actors around him.

As for the actors, Yu Ding was interested in Zhang Yi and Yin Tao who starred in Wen Jia, so he contacted them at the first time and sent them the script.

Yu Ding thought that no matter who read such a good script, he would be moved, but what he didn't expect was that Zhang Yi refused to act on the grounds that the role of Chen Jianghe was not suitable for him.

So, why did Zhang Yi take the show later?

After Zhang Yi refused to play, Yu Ding contacted Yin Tao again and asked her to recommend a suitable actor. Let Yin Tao recommend, its essence is to let her pick a hit it off.

Like Yu Ding, Yin Tao's first idea was to let Zhang Yi play Chen Jianghe. She thinks that Zhang Yi is a hard-working actor and is very suitable for this role, so she has the idea of persuading Zhang Yi to play.

According to Yin Tao's memory, she and Zhang Yi met at the premiere of The Burning Sun Heart, but they just said hello because they were far away. Later, when she went to the garage to wait for the bus, she saw Zhang Yi, who was also waiting for the bus. Then she went over and asked him why he refused to play.

Zhang Yi replied: "I don't think the theme is like what the public likes, and the name feels very rustic."

Hearing this, Yin Tao knew that he had not read the script, and asked, "Have you read the script?"

Sure enough, Zhang Yi only read the outline of the story, and Yin Tao advised him to go back and have a good look at the script.

It may be because Yin Tao was too serious at that time. After returning home, Zhang Yi asked her for an electronic version of the script.

After reading the script, Zhang Yi's view on the play also changed, and he agreed to play with Yin Tao.

Chicken feathers fly to the sky reflects the great changes that have taken place in Yiwu in the past 30 years of reform and opening up, and 80% of the cases in the play have real prototypes. Tao Zeru, an old dramatist, was moved by these vivid characters and stories before he took over the play.

He recalled: "I took this play because I only watched a few episodes (scripts) and was moved." The actors saw that a good book had an emotion that they couldn't give up, so I made up my mind to participate. "

Although the role of Chen Jinshui is not much, he is also one of the soul figures of the play. Chen Jianghe was deeply influenced by his diligence, honesty and trustworthiness and his belief in the principle of "four in and six out".

Although Tao Zeru took the role, it was not easy to play the role well.

"Chen Jinshui is not easy to play. He has the kindness and tenacity of our parents, but also some stubbornness and conservatism. If you don't grasp the temperature when interpreting this role, the audience will not only be disgusted, but also bored. "

In order to play this role well, Tao Zeru also specially discussed this role with the screenwriter, and analyzed the changes of his mentality at each age stage and the changes of his thoughts at different stages, which led to the love-hate Chen Jinshui on the screen.

After all the actors were finalized, Ding Yu took the crew and began to shoot intensively. However, the play should have been staged a long time ago.

Wu Jiaping revealed in a later interview that the filming process of the whole drama lasted for more than 600 days, and the location alone involved three overseas countries. However, the budget was only1.300 million. In the end, there was not enough money and time, and the actors postponed shooting for free.

On March 3, 20 17, after six years of preparation and filming, "Chicken Feathers Fly to the Sky" premiered on Zhejiang Satellite TV and Jiangsu Satellite TV. It's a pity that we met in in the name of people, and the audience's voice was not high.

But it quickly reversed the situation with its good reputation. The story adapted from the personal experience of the little people in the play makes people praise it as "true and appropriate"

Not only that, the play also set off a phenomenon tide in Yiwu area. People often show off a picture in the play to their relatives and friends, saying that they are themselves.

What impressed Shen Jie most was that when the crew went to Yiwu for publicity, an old lady handed him a photo of Lin Daiyu and said to him, "What you wrote was me." .

Shen Jie was shocked when he heard the old lady say this. He didn't expect the old lady in front of him to make a fortune by selling photos of a dream of red mansions.

"I checked the information of a businessman in Yiwu in the book and said that there was a local woman who earned her first bucket of gold by selling photos of A Dream of Red Mansions one by one. I thought it was interesting, so I wrote it in the play. I didn't expect to see her. "

In addition, the old lady also said that the pictures in the play reminded her of her youth and how she came.

These vivid characters and stories support the background of the times when the real and sensible chicken feathers fly to the sky, and also lay a solid foundation for the success of this drama.

Of course, Zhang Yi, as the leading actor, didn't live up to the trust of Cherry and the director, and he worked very hard after "recovering what he lost".

When shooting the scene of Chen Jianghe running away with Luo Yuzhu on his back, Zhang Yi ran many laps before shooting to get himself to the real state, because he wanted to show Chen Jianghe panting.

And his efforts have won him recognition from the audience and the industry.

After "Chicken Feathers Fly to Heaven" was broadcast, it was not only deeply loved by the audience, but also Zhang Yi and Yin Tao won the Magnolia Award respectively. Unfortunately, only Zhang Yi won the Golden Eagle Award, and Yin Tao missed the Golden Eagle Award.

201810/2 at the golden eagle award ceremony held in Changsha, Zhang Yi, who won the audience's favorite actor award, said excitedly, "I am 40 years old and finally won the golden eagle award."

It's not hard to imagine how many people have failed to do this all their lives. However, I don't know whether to be happy or sad to think that some traffic stars can be easily obtained without too much effort.

Yin Tao's wonderful performance in Chicken Feather Fly to the Sky won unanimous praise from the audience. Many people thought that she would definitely win the Golden Eagle Festival, but in the end, the funniest scene in the history of the Golden Eagle Award happened.

When the awarding guests "Secretary Da Kang" and "Director Zhao" saw the winners of the most popular actresses, they took a step back and couldn't help screaming.

And WU GANG, the teacher with the list, also showed the eyes of death. He didn't want to take this hot potato, so he quickly handed it to Hou Yong.

Both sides come and go, but in the end they can't "humble". WU GANG-Dilraba read out the list of winners.

When the audience heard that the winner was Dilraba, there was an uproar at once.

When the camera switched to Wang Gang, Wang Gang showed a meaningful smile, and Yan Ni opened his mouth strangely, embarrassed and didn't know what to do.

Actually, I don't blame the exaggerated reaction of the audience, because Dilraba "defeated" powerful actors like Sun Li, Tamia Liu and Yolanda.

Dilraba's award-winning work is Beautiful Li Huizhen, and his score in Douban is only 3. 1. Such a low score can beat the "chicken feathers flying to the sky" of 8.2, which is simply a big record in the world.

No one expected such a result, so Dilraba was severely ridiculed by many netizens, and even was dubbed the "water queen" by some netizens.

Many netizens think that the Golden Eagle Award is too bad for a drama to win the prize.

In the past, because there was no traffic, there was no choice in front of the script and no high salary. The only sustenance is to win an award, which has been recognized and affirmed by the audience.

But now everything is taken away by young actors. Is the original spiritual sustenance just to stand on the stage of the biennial industry festival and be humiliated and watch the traffic actors stand out with trophies?

It's like you worked hard, but the year-end award was taken away by a man who was absent from work all day. Who would want to?

Fortunately, you can still resign, but the actor can't strike the table and say that I won't accompany you. After all, there is only one entertainment circle.

But then again, "Chicken feathers fly to the sky" also has shortcomings. For example, the front plot is relatively compact, and the back plot is a bit diluted.

Shen Jie also said that the second half of "Chicken Feathers Fly to Heaven" was a "failure" and "I didn't write the contemporary commercial war drama well". In order to please the audience, he "overdoes the plot setting and emotional laying."

Generally speaking, although the drama "Chicken Feathers Fly to Heaven" is not exquisite enough, its flaws cannot be concealed.

The play lasted six years from 20 1 1 to 20 17. Grinding a drama for six years is enough to explain the attitude of the founders.

In addition, Zhang Yi joined the crew under the persuasion of Yin Tao, and finally got a "beautiful talk" from the Emperor, so it is not difficult to understand whether what Zhang Yi said is sincere.
