In fact, it can be seen from the direction of the streets in the play, the way of paving, and the building materials of the houses in the play that the so-called Ningyang in the play was definitely not filmed in the Northeast.
was laughed down by the scenery group of "South to North", it has been more than ten years of reform and opening up, and Ningyang in the play has not enjoyed the fruits of reform and opening up at all, what's wrong? You're talking about Ningyang, another parallel space!
The place name Ningyang is not a combination of Shenyang, Liaoning.
The drama "South to North" mainly tells the story of Harbin and Shenyang, the two largest cities in Northeast China.
The plot is very real, fully showing the emotional and psychological changes of ordinary people in that era of great change.
For example, the plot of the train driver Niu Dali who resigned and went to Shenzhen to pour swill and make a fortune is very real.
Because in 1982, Shenzhen was in full swing, and many Northeast friends heard that there was money everywhere in the south, and as long as they were not lazy, they could make a lot of money.
As a result, many train drivers soon quit their jobs and headed south, causing the train to almost stop.
There are also Ma Yan and Ma Jian's sisters and brothers in the play, which are also very realistic.
We don't know who played Ma Yan, but the choice of this actor is simply too good, you must know that in the Northeast at that time, that is, around 1978, the children of the railway were basically like Ma Yan and Ma Jian in the play.
At that time, the most famous story in our railway compound was that after the yard was paved with marble floor tiles, there was no need to level the machine at all, as long as the little boys in the courtyard came out to walk around, the guy rolled the ground, which was smoother than a horse and a flat river.
To say that it is more real is the life plot of the Northeast people shown in the play, such as the plot of the train conductor Cai Xiaonian's marriage in the play, which is quite real.
Tell you what it was like at that time, don't look at the conductor Cai Xiaonian and his railway driver's father Cai Danian, who have a combined income of more than 300 yuan per month, but they really can't even afford to buy a bicycle for 180 yuan.
Why? It's not because of the characteristics of the railroad people.
In the Northeast, the railroad people are quite famous for picking, which is a well-known secret throughout the Northeast.
Therefore, it is understandable that Cai Xiaonian's family did not buy Kaxin's permanent brand bicycle.
Of course, although the play is set in Ningyang and Hacheng, it does not show too much of the urban style of these two important towns in the Northeast. And more pictures are on the railway compound where Wang Xin lives and on the train where he works.
Although there are relatively few pictures of urban street scenes, it is not nothing, and some streets in Ningyang are still shown in the play.
But I have to say that these Ningyang streetscapes are really a bit too foolish, even according to the situation in the Northeast at that time, these streetscapes were at best the level of a small county.
What's even worse is that with the passage of time in the play, Ningyang, the provincial capital city in the play, has not changed in the slightest, what was it like in 1978, and it was still like that in 1992.
Let's say that these pictures and shots that have not changed are barely okay in the railway compound where Wang Xin lives, but when they are placed on the streets of Ningyang, they really make the audience unable to look down.
Take a look at the most common street scene in Ningyang, which was like this in 1978, and it was still like this in 1992, the provincial capital city of Northeast China, Big Brother, has already undergone earth-shaking and generous changes.
You must know that after entering the 90s, with the rapid development of the country's economy, the old industrial base of Ningyang has long been renewed, the streets have not only become wider, but the houses have also changed from the original low bungalows to buildings.
The most obvious thing is that there are obviously more cars on the road, and the scene of only seeing one car on the road all day long like the one in the picture is long gone.
And the bus has long been replaced by a big dragon car, a small bus like the one in the play, in fact, it won't appear until after 1995!
All in all, this period drama "South to North" is still very good-looking, and the degree of restoration of the old industrial base in the play is also very high, at least 85 degrees of aging.
