The film is directed by the famous director Li Pingping, starring young actors Wang Ban, Zhang Han and Mo Yuanji, the king of China. Wang Ban, the first hero, said in an interview that it was also a great challenge for him to appear as a peasant brother. As he is also from Henan, he said that he must try his best to play Feng Chunyu, a rich leader.

Actual voice: Wang Ban, a famous young actor:' I want to play the pioneering spirit of a modern veteran, his mental outlook and temperament after he went to the countryside. Whether his desire can be expressed through my words and deeds, I want to give the audience a new image of farmers, and I want to see this image through the audience. Later, I will slowly start to accept it. It turns out that farmers are different from before, and many people are willing, even.

Wang Ban: Pour enthusiasm into shaping the image of new farmers.

Wang Ban, a native of Zhengzhou, Henan Province, 199 1 Graduated from the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama with a bachelor's degree, and is now a drama actor of Beijing People's Art Theatre. This "old" young actor,/kloc-started acting at the age of 0/6, and has appeared in more than 30 TV dramas. Up to now, he has appeared in 7 dramas such as Thunderstorm and Beijingers, and more than 40 film and television dramas such as Rainbow Return, Missile Brigade, Oolong Love and April Day on Earth. From ancient costumes to modern times, from soldiers to dude, from Du Changhe in Brigadier General Missile to Shi Tao in The Return of the Native as the Rainbow, handsome and handsome Wang Ban has performed too many images.

But this is the first time to play the role of a retired farmer who has returned to his hometown. Wang Ban said, I like to play some roles that I have never played before, and it is also a pleasure to play a "small" role. Feng Chunyu, the hero of my performance this time, is an entrepreneurial veteran who goes back to his hometown to farm. He is hardworking, disciplined and responsible. He thinks that his hometown should not be so poor and backward. He wants to change the traditional and backward planting concept, adjust the agricultural structure, and then get rid of poverty and become rich. Pitaya is a promising thing, which should be popularized and led to plant. In this process, there are many obstacles and pressures, such as moving ancestral graves, which are not allowed by traditional concepts. He has to convince many people, including his mother and lover. I want to convey a new image of farmers with the color of the times to the national audience through this film, so that everyone can understand the new ideological and emotional world of farmers.

Wang Ban is an excellent actor. No matter which movie or play he plays, even if it is a small role, he always shows great care. This time, he took a relatively unpopular rural theme. In this regard, he said with emotion that China is a big agricultural country. The development of the countryside is amazing now, but there are too few movies that touch the countryside. Country drama is a territory worth reclaiming. Great changes have taken place in the countryside, the agricultural structure has also been greatly adjusted, and the rural economy is slowly integrating with the world, which many people do not understand. Through this film, let the audience know about today's new socialist countryside construction.

Wang Ban is from Zhengzhou, Henan, but this is the first time to Shangqiu. He was very surprised. He gained a lot from his trip to Shangqiu. He learned that businessmen, business and business culture all originated from Shangqiu, and that Yi Yin, the originator of cooking, and Kuibo, the Vulcan, also came from Shangqiu, a place with a long history and culture. He wants to convey the good image of Henan people's hard work and innovation to the people of the whole country through this film.

At the shooting scene where the outdoor temperature is close to 40℃, Wang Ban wipes the sweat on his face from time to time. Although he has to work seventeen or eighteen hours a day, he still recites his lines from time to time. When the reporter asked him if filming was bitter, he said decisively: "No, if filming is just a means of survival, you will feel very bitter;" But I regard acting as my career, and it is a pleasure to work for what I love. "

Zhang Han: Actors should be integrated with their roles.

Zhang Han is an actor in China National Theatre. This Dalian actor, who is famous for his role as a village girl's vanilla in The Hedge Woman and Dog, has made dozens of film and television works for more than ten years, and has successfully created dozens of artistic images: My Mother Zhao Yiman combines the softness of her mother with the fortitude of the protagonist, Dr. Lin, who makes people feel worried and sympathetic in The Song of the Army, and Dr. Lin, who is the most artistic in Autumn Rain.

This time, Zhang Han, who is mature, beautiful but very low-key, plays the heroine Tian Yingchun, a real rural woman, in the movie Homesickness. At the shooting scene, the reporter learned how she experienced a colorful life in a lively role.

"I have played many rural dramas before, from little girls to middle-aged women, but every time it is different. Tian Yingchun, the heroine I played this time, is a real rural woman. She is kind, virtuous, and a little short-tempered, but she also has her own selfishness. Like ordinary people, she began to be less supportive of her husband Feng Chunyu's work, including her understanding of pitaya. She thought that if there was no good harvest, the money would be wasted, so she quarreled with her husband. But she loved her husband very much and returned to her husband after she found out she was pregnant. When she saw the pitaya blossom and bear fruit, she also had an unspeakable joy until she became a career to support her husband. " Zhang Han said that during the filming, they made many changes to the script, trying to make the language of the characters more active and colloquial.

Zhang Han, a beautiful woman with long hair, kicking cloth shoes and wearing cloth clothes, really makes people think at first glance that she is a rural woman who has just entered the city from the countryside. Zhang Han understood the image of rural women in this way. "I think rural women have one thing in common, that is, they are pure and sincere, talk straight and don't have so much mind's eye. It's normal to have your own selfishness. It is the most important thing to play rural women well. "

Actresses don't just "eat the bread of youth". Zhang Han said that the older an actor is, the more experienced he is, and the more professional he is in trying to figure out his mind, grasping the role and interpreting it. Actors should strive to be close to the role and enrich the role. For every role, they should appreciate the psychology and heart of the role, so that the actor will be integrated with the role, otherwise it will be dry and pale.

Yan: It is not easy to play a comedy role.

The traitor's head, the figure of ribs, a pair of small eyes and two big ears, the walking posture and the expression when talking, where does this actor seem to have seen it?

I have seen Jia Gui, the traitor captain in the sitcom Subway Station, and Liu Quan, the housekeeper of Wang Shen in A Dream of Red Mansions. He is the famous comedian Yan of the film and television media company.

Yan, 6 1 year-old this year, started acting at the age of 48 and became a late bloomer. As a special actor, it is perfect to play drug addicts, traitors and vendors.

"This time, I played Wang Gui, a representative of backward feudal figures in rural areas. He was bound by the old consciousness and didn't particularly want to fight against the village cadres. He could not accept the reality that Feng Chunyu moved to the ancestral grave to plant pitaya, and the feudal consciousness was deeply rooted. But in the end, he saw that the pitaya blossomed after the successful planting, and was moved to gradually understand his backward consciousness, which is a good example for contemporary farmers. " Yan explained his role like this.

As this film is a light comedy, the role of Wang Gui is the highlight of this film. How can we make this role wonderful? Yan said it is not easy to play a comedy role well! "It is not easy to grasp this degree. It's not funny if the performance is not in place. If it is too much, it will look silly. When to get rid of the baggage is very important. " Before coming to the crew, he read the script several times and searched for this "point" with the crew for a long time. After filming, he quickly found an accurate role tone, from walking posture, speaking expression, tone, intonation to expression, that is, to suddenly explode the accumulation of the past so many years, so that the audience will remember and like you as soon as they appear.

Studio tidbits

Acting is not smart, but cruel.

"If you love someone, let him go to the crew, where he can become famous; If you hate someone, let him go to the crew. It's simply hell. " Although this is a joke of the actors, their working and living conditions are beyond ordinary people's imagination: they work 17 hours a day on average, with a maximum of 23 hours, serious lack of sleep and physical exhaustion. But at the shooting scene, no matter how tired, as long as the director shouts "ready", you must come and get into the role.

The photographer became an "old branch secretary"

Liu Hong, the photographer of this film, has a very white skin, but he got tanned when he came to Shangqiu to shoot. In hot weather, he often rolls up his trouser legs and wears a straw hat. Everyone said that he didn't need makeup to play the "old branch secretary", so he got the nickname "old branch secretary".

Blood-sucking leeches covered their legs.

When shooting the scene of jumping into the river, 6 1 year-old teacher Yan dragged his sick body and stood in the scorching sun for two hours, and then stood in the deep water of Lao Huang for an hour. After coming out of the water, she saw that her legs were covered with leeches.

Respect local customs

When shooting the scene of moving ancestral graves, the crew respected our local customs and historical traditions because they wanted to use the ancestral graves of villagers. Before the filming, they set off firecrackers and incense in front of dozens of graves, which was regarded as a spirit to comfort and disturb their ancestors.
