Highlights of a century of ups and downs

Nowadays, the "commodity economy" is implemented, and it is not easy to find scenes in Shanghai. However, one of the producers, Qu Xinhua, a famous writer and producer in Shanghai who has won many awards, has been through thick and thin. , sometimes in order to find a suitable scene, he can run around in the rain for 8-9 hours, and often "bargain". These things that should not be done by the producer originally, but he did a lot of things. After filming, he almost looked "African" in his tan.

No wonder, Zhao Yazhi said with emotion: Your TV series are even more sophisticated than your movies. "A Hundred Years of Ups and Downs" lasted for nearly a century, with so many locations and mixed styles that it was not enough to shoot in Shanghai alone. Xu Wenlong, the CEO of Zhejiang Dongyang Hengdian Group, warmly received the creative staff and talked with his seven major departments The managers listened carefully to the request of the artist Yang Gang, and carried out extensive civil engineering work to level the hilltop and rebuild the "Qin Mansion" in the play. The managers acted resolutely and rebuilt according to the drawings. Three days later, a large amount of construction stones began to be started... Seven days later, trees began to be moved and the hills were leveled...

What impressed the creative staff the most was that the investment of tens of millions of yuan in real-life scenes was Hengdian Group is another charitable act after assisting in the filming of "The Opium War".

Faced with the gratitude of the creative staff, Mr. Xu said frankly: "It is worth building tens of millions of yuan for "The Ups and Downs of a Hundred Years"!" The famous Hong Kong film and television actor Zhao Yazhi has a high reputation at home and abroad. , "Shanghai Beach", "A Joke about Qianlong" and "The Legend of White Snake" starring her are all the rage in China. This time producer Ma Zhongjun chose her to play the heroine Mei Ruxue and it took a lot of trouble.

After two years of revising the script, many outstanding mainland actresses were interested in joining the cast of "A Hundred Years of Ups and Downs". However, what made Ma Zhongjun and others hesitant was that they always lacked some bookishness and style. He was aristocratic, so he turned his gaze away in helplessness. Huang Yonghui suggested: Zhao Yazhi is the most suitable!

A few days later, Ma Zhongjun and producer Fan Xiaotian, who was preparing to shoot "The New Gone with the Wind", met with Zhao Yazhi at the Shangri-La Hotel in Shenzhen, and they were really impressed by Zhao Yazhi's charming and elegant charm.

Zhao Yazhi began her first cooperation with the mainland.
