On September 25, the table tennis competition of the 14th National Games entered the final period. On this day, " liangjian" director Zhang Qian's first "national ball" era drama " wins gold" landed on the top CCTV-8 prime stage, which can be described as the time and the significance. .
The TV series "Capture Gold" reproduces the pioneering legend of China's "national football", composed of Zheng Kai, Zhang Doudou, Xia Xing, Baien, Wang Lu and other youths The actor led the starring, Wu Gang, Cheng Yu, Wu Liansheng and many other old drama players joined in. The play traces the history of ping-pong and pays tribute to sports heroes. It demonstrates the precious qualities of the older generation of ping-pong people who still adhere to the dream of being a powerful country in sports with flesh-and-blood, full-figured character stories, and boost domestic sports dramas to new heights. This "Golden Gold" peak, which is shining on CCTV screens, has the following three particularly obvious labels.
The first label: Always focus on the theme of competitive sports
"Winning the Gold" with the background of the 1950s and 1960s, taking the 1959 victory of and Rong Guotuan as the starting point of time, it tells about the love of playing table tennis. Liu Erga (later renamed Liu Zhengguang) started from the commune table tennis game, from county to province, and finally selected for the national team. From "playing wild ball" to going abroad to fight for glory for the country, he has never experienced ups and downs. Abandoning the dream of table tennis, and later devoted all of it to table tennis education, training a new generation of young athletes with the fighting spirit of winning gold.
In order to achieve the greatest degree of "fidelity" in table tennis competition, "Gold Medal" invited Chinese table tennis veterans and former head coach of the national table tennis team Xu Shaofa to serve as the general counsel of technical guidance.Wang Jun, the champion of the World Table Tennis Championships, was invited as the technical director of the permanent crew. He also coordinated the main actors to conduct a three-month intensive training at Beijing Sport University, and organized experts to discuss scripts for many times. Xia Xing, one of the heroines in the play, played by Xu Qian, has practiced table tennis for ten years. She said in the interview: "I feel like I'm not acting at all. A good performance is not acting." At the same time, more than 30 players who have won the world table tennis championship in the show cheered, Xu Yinsheng, Li Furong , Ma Lin and other famous "national players" appeared in friendship. The domestic gold directors, first-class creative team, high-quality scripts, and professional sports coaches have laid a quality guarantee for the "fineness" of "Golden Gold".
Take a look at it, and you will find that in recent years, many sports-themed film and television creations in China have "buy cubits and return beads". The drama often obscures the competitive and cruel nature of competitive sports. Sports has become the "beauty picture of love idol dramas". background". In contrast, the drama "Capture the Gold" is solid and rigorous in structure. It abandons sports drama routines such as preaching and youth idols. The struggle history of professional players unfolded. The main story focused on the table tennis arena, which truly and concretely described the ecological characteristics of competitive sports, allowing the audience to understand the history and professional knowledge of table tennis through watching the drama.
Dramatic conflict revolves around the arena, and sports has become a narrative engine, not a combustion aid. In the play, even the protagonist's progress in love is closely related and closely linked to the competitive story. Although other secondary lines such as friendship and family are advancing simultaneously, they have always been the foil for the main line. Such a detailed and proper arrangement creates an interesting contrast. Although "sky full of stars" does not compete with "a round of bright moon", it also shines with its own light. It can be seen that "Win the Gold" has matured and mastered the only way to tell the story of competitive sports.
The second label: Focus on highlighting the spirit of Chinese sports
The dazzling jade of the anti-Japanese theme "phenomenal" film and television drama "The Bright Sword" is in front,"The Gold" directed by the same director has attracted much attention. Like "Bright Sword", it not only realizes the "same director", but also embodies the "same spirit"-the brave wins when we meet on a narrow road. To some extent, this happens to be the core connotation of Chinese sportsmanship. In the play, Du Jianhua was worried that Liu Zhengguang was asked to retire, and suggested that he talk to the coach and express his love for table tennis. Liu Zhengguang blurted out a golden phrase, "It goes without saying that you love table tennis, and you need to practice hard and win. The proof.” This is quite similar to the phrase “Bright Sword” said by Li Yunlong in “Bright Sword”, “Bright Sword shows its momentum, courage, and man’s spirit”.
The director of this work, Zhang Qian, has devoted himself to the eight years and has the ambition to create the "Sports Version of "Bright Sword". He invited famous table tennis players, world champions, gold medalists, young actors, etc. to participate, combined with table tennis skills. With the most advanced shooting methods at present, he has done a lot of useful explorations in lens processing, character performance, etc., and established a monument to the Chinese sportsmanship in the form of film and television dramas. The transformation from "Liu Erga" to "Liu Zhengguang" is also an excellent "metaphor" for this theme to a certain extent. After entering the provincial Miaozi training team, the wild boy who specializes in "playing wild ball" and created his own "chopping ball" has doubts about coach Xu's basic skills training. , Ye Luzi lost to the regular play. Since then, he has become convinced of the formal scientific training. He used dumbbells instead of rackets and practiced hard swings. After experiencing various stages of competition, changes in the times and spiritual growth, Liu Erga finally became a glory for the country." Liu Zhengguang".
The brave and fearless character of the protagonist and the super-burning inspirational plot make the protagonist Liu Zhengguang's character image vaguely "Li Yunlong in the table tennis world". "Dare to fight and not afraid to lose" Liu Zhengguang, after every loss, can get stronger and stronger and successfully counterattack. "If the speed is slow, increase the speed, if the technique is poor, then practice more. If there is a gap, you will be desperately chasing. Worrying about not solving the problem is the only way." Liu Zhengguang said when he encountered setbacks, simple but powerful and simple. But it is full of philosophy, isn't it the best interpretation and vivid interpretation of the Chinese sports spirit?
"The ball will not fall, never give up, fight to the end, win glory for the country!" It is this kind of sportsmanship and the existence of many "Liu Zhengguang",Let the sport of table tennis become the "national game" loved by the Chinese people. The portrayal of this spirit also gave the TV series "Win the Gold" an extraordinary spiritual character.
The third label: meticulously portray sports figures
For Chinese, table tennis is not only a sport with a broad and deep mass base, it is also a record of the changes of the times and the inheritance of the memories of the parents. Time ruler".
In 1959, at the 25th World Table Tennis Championships in Dortmund, West Germany, Rong Guotuan passed the test and won the first world championship for China in a world sports competition; in 1961, the 26th World Table Tennis Championships was held in Beijing In 1965, in the 28th World Table Tennis Championships, Chinese athletes won five championships, four runners-ups and seven thirds in seven events in the 28th World Table Tennis Championships. Celebrate the whole country; in 1971, China and the United States started "ping pong diplomacy"; in 1981, the 36th World Table Tennis Championships was held. The Chinese team won 7 championships, creating an unprecedented record of 55 years in the world table tennis that one country has won all championships... …
The TV series "Win the Gold", with the "scale" of video data, expressed to the audience the fact that Glory always accompanies the Chinese table tennis team.
In addition to showing exciting competitions on the field, "Golden Medal" also delicately portrays the relationship between characters and times, spirit and heritage, passion and inspiration. It controls the Chinese table tennis players from the dual perspectives of life and art. The group portrait collectively portrays the destiny and character of many characters: Wang Binghui, deputy director of the Yong'an Sports Commission, who rushed to discover and recruit table tennis talents, and Xu Zhipeng, the stern and warm-hearted coach of the provincial men’s team, ran in the rain with Liu Zhengguang. Du Jianhua and Sun Shaojie who stole the eggs and formed friendship, the women's singles athlete Xu Qian who worked hard to win the world championship, the new generation of table tennis player Sun Haoning who loved table tennis since childhood, international table tennis friends Tiana, Bengesen, and Ms. Xu and Ma Cuicui, who silently paid in order to win gold without asking for rewards...
These delicate and vivid depictions vividly show the ups and downs of the personal fortunes of these distinctive table tennis players in the great age.It demonstrates the precious qualities of the older generation of table tennis players who still adhere to the dream of being a sports powerhouse in a difficult environment. The splendor and glory of Chinese table tennis has never been the recurrence of individual heroism, but tacit cooperation, collective unity, and persistence for decades.
In more than 100 days, we will usher in the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, and the sportsmanship will shine and shine continuously over the land of China. I hope that each of us Chinese can realize this spirit from the hit drama "Winning the Gold" from the Yangtze Eighth drama, unite and cooperate, fight tenaciously, and run one by one in this "relay run" of the Chinese nation's rejuvenation. Go ahead and run a good result for the next generation.
