On August 11, 2022, the actual drama "Ice Rain", which has been looking forward to the long -awaited fight against drugs in the new era, was finally launched in Youku. Director Fu Dongyu also released Weibo, looking forward to getting the audience's correctness and feedback. This is his humble gesture he has always faced with the audience.

This attitude exactly reflects his awe of art and always created with sincerity. From the preparation of the project to the shooting production to the broadcast, Fu Dongyu is always in a tight state. Only when a problem is resolved and the best results are presented, he will get a little loose.

Over the years, he has always asked himself with the principles of realism, pursuing the real movement of works, and continuously surpassing. "The concept of realism is that you must go deep into life, understand life, and then sublimate it. This is a creative law." He said.

last moment

In November 2020, Beijing had a desolate winter atmosphere. In the cultural and creative park near Gaobeidian, a small two -story building is surrounded by bare trees. The later editing of the TV series "Ice Rain" is being sprint here.

Director Fu Dongyu is the busiest person in this building. He always wore a less thick wool sweater and ran up and down, staring at the later progress in the computer room, and receiving partners.

The guests come and go, most of them with the same "purpose" -watching the film in advance, "Sight" what will be present in "Ice Rain".

Wang Yibo squeezed out of the seams of time in many jobs to the computer room. He tried to observe Chen Yu in the camera from the perspective of the bystander, and also wanted to find the feeling again, brewing emotions for the part of the dubbing.

People related to this play have been here more than once. From the project to the film, the theme, production progress, and overall tone of a work need to follow up. The content of "Ice Rain" has reduced their anxiety, the performance stands up, the tone stands, and everyone begins to be assured.

But Chen Xiao's agent seems not so easy. She also wanted the director Fu Dongyu to persuade Chen Xiao to jump out of "Ice Rain". After the shooting, life and work must continue. After all, Wu Zhenfeng only represents him, and then there are many scripts and different roles waiting for Chen Xiao.

Fu Dongyu understands Chen Xiao's condition. This is not prestigious, but an inevitable result of an actor after hollowing himself up. The agent lamented, "How do we know how this play is like this?" Fu Dongyu believed that this evaluation was a kind of praise in a sense. Chen Xiao opened all the restrained and self -protection in "Ice Rain". This not only met the director Fu Dongyu's requirements for actors, but also means "from this moment, Chen Xiao should be a more mature actor. "".

During that time, the machine room was like a base in the later period. The reporter of "Blog World" also saw the clip of "Ice Rain" for the first time here. Fu Dong has been cultivated several plays that represent different scenes and characters, allowing the assistant to play in the screening room. The screening room was decorated as a small cinema. The shot fighting drama of "Ice Rain" is projected and enlarged, showing a movie -like lens, which is exactly the effect that Fu Dongyu wants everyone to see.

Then there was a rival scene of Chen Xiao and Liu Yijun. Wu Zhenfeng, who was not trusted, and Yang Xingquan, who couldn't guess, were confronting. Wu Zhenfeng's somewhat exhausted and lost soul was very different from all the images of Chen Xiao.

Wang Yibo's crying scene in the car was also played. Chen Yu played in the car, and after a phone call, his expression gradually trembled until he couldn't help but shed tears. Lindzan (Wang Jinsong), who was driving next to him, was silent. He could only look forward and continue to hold the steering wheel. There are no lines in the whole scene, just relying on emotions, but enough to impress the audience.

At the end of the screening picture, Fu Dongyu broke his silence and patted his thigh with excitement. He has seen this scene repeatedly watching many times, and he was excited every time. This is the enthusiasm of Fu Dongyu's creative enthusiasm from the beginning to the last moment.

For many people of the "Ice Rain" crew, killing green means the end of the shooting; for a complete work, killing youth is the beginning of another stage. The director is the person who has been running in the entire chain. He needs calmness and excitement.

Just like this Weibo issued by Fu Dongyu on September 24, 2020: "Today's killing is the end of the shooting phase. Welcome" Ice Rain and Fire ", it was 502 days ago. Next, the long later stage . Putting, composition, sound, color adjustment, CG, subtitles ... I hope to live up to the sweat flowing by everyone in this play. Other words, give it to the work. "

One "battle"

On May 11, 2019, Fu Dongyu first came into contact with the "Ice Rain" project. In those days, the "Ice Breaking Action" directed by him opened the network network. As soon as he landed on the CCTV-8 golden file, he became the viewing champion. After that, word of mouth and ratings were rising. The producer found him and handed it with a new script that was also the subject of anti -drug.

"When I first saw this script, I felt that its subject matter was an impulse, but the script still needs to make a lot of changes." Fu Dongyu said with a bluntly recall of "Blog World". At that time, there was a flaw, and it seemed a bit suspended. The most important thing was that the real situation and realistic dilemma of the anti -drug police were displayed. The project was silently launched in early summer in 2018. At the end of 2018, the screenwriter McBays officially named it "Ice Rainfire". But in Fu Dongyu's view, the presentation of the creative concept he had always insisted on was not consistent.

Therefore, Fu Dongyu itself is a rejection attitude. Because of the different positions and views, the meeting that day became nervous. After the dispute, it was silent, and then calmed down, and several parties reached an agreement -since sitting together, it is better to talk about it. If you want to make a real police and bandit theme, how to shoot.

Director on -site guidance actor

Fu Dongyu proposed "the creative concept of realism must be adhered to". He explained this concept, "Realism is not a real subject, but a method. The concept of realism is that you must go deep into life, understand life, and then sublimate it. A creative law. "

"Ice Rain" wants to stand, not the plot, but people, "understanding people deeply, 'All literature is learned by people', what kind of person do you want to write?" As for the anti -drug police What kind of person and how to show them, there is only one way -to live in -depth life. Fu Dongyu believes that before the creation of the script, the screenwriter must enter the grassroots level to understand the front -line police. This seems to be a clumsy way, but it is the most effective way to verify. "Interviewed 100 people, refined 10 of them, and for one person, this person must be alive."

The screenwriter team is relatively young and lacks grass -roots experience. It is not surprising that the original script lacks realistic rationality. After receiving the task, they supplemented their professional knowledge as soon as possible and went to the front line to experience life. They needed to achieve the basic requirements proposed by Fu Dongyu at the fastest speed: understand the title of police, administrative level, work process, and what is true. poison.

Screenwriter McCayas called this re -creation on Weibo as "the Battle of the Script." They thought they could understand fur in a week, but they actually had more than a month before and after the front line of the Yunnan border. This front line experience has completely overturned the screenwriter team. After returning to Changsha, he closed down and wrote a new version of "Ice Rain".

On May 18, 2020, the TV series "Ice Rain" was officially launched in Xishuangna, Yunnan. The story is about to change from the black and white text on the paper to a lively character. But the "script campaign" has not ended, and the new "battle" is here again. There are 330 scenes in "Ice Rain". Except for the four main scenes are the construction of the studio, all the other are real -scene shooting, which contains a large number of chasing, blasting, and drama. These are the tests of the crew.

All actors who participated in the "Ice Rain" were asked to understand the birth of the first -tier anti -drug police, and at the same time cooperated with the corresponding physical training. During the shooting, it was mainly divided into two groups of AB, of which group B was the action group. On August 18, 2020, Group B was killed, and the most memorable of the crew was the mixed rain and muddy night.

However, Chen Xiao and Wang Yibo of Group A are not less action than Group B. In the production special, Chen Xiao described this like a "Ice Rain" sports meeting, and it was also the "one play with the largest number of times". Basically, half of the time was used to shoot.

Fu Dongyu shared a picture. In the picture, the people's pants and shoes were all covered with mud. The earthy was yellow, and the original background of the clothes could not be seen, let alone Chen Xiao wearing it. "There are more than 20 pounds of pants off the pants." Fu Dongyu still remembers it so far. It was the first episode of "Ice Rain", a real tough battle.

On the day of shooting, Wang Yibo took his foot injury, and Chen Xiao played too much. The director group prepared a stand -in for them. However, the injured Wang Yibo was closed and did not have to go to the battlefield in person; Chen Xiao naturally refused to relax, and he should have played directly with a stand -in action.

Rainforest chase theater

"Very selling strength, not the general strength, or the sense of input of these two actors in this play." Fu Dongyu has not worked with them before, but after the start of the play, the two actors can already determine the two actors. The desire to invest in the role. He gradually relieved, knowing that the "Battle" of "Bing Rain" will definitely win.

"From the perspective of my previous work experience, the two actors' analysis of this project and their roles and their personal desires are very strong, very strong," he said.

Constantly transcend

On August 11, "Bing Rain" landed on Youku and was officially aired. A high praise comment on Douban.com wrote: "I have a police officer in my family, so I naturally feel good about this subject matter, and it is also naturally picky. But I saw a few episodes today, and I can feel that the producer is very attentive. Many professional terms are fine." It can be said that "Ice Rain" has reached the true texture of Fu Dongyu's desired.

During the shooting and production of this drama, Fu Dongyu also completed another "unlikely task". Regardless of what kind of theme story, he insists on using realistic creative methods and strives to use authenticity to impress people.

In late September 2020, when "Ice Rain" was approaching the green, he received an invitation from the series of short dramas "ideal to China" to serve as the director. This is the key work of celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. The story of the 40 groups of ordinary people is equivalent to 40 scripts. It is equivalent to 40 scripts. It needs to be broadcast in May of the following year. "Anxiety, dreaming is all things, don't sleep, wake up for two or three hours." He said in an interview with the media. Director Fu Dongyu was in the shooting scene of "ideal shine China"

He met more than 80 directors and chose those who had received good professional influences. The most important thing was that these directors had to have realist creative experience. In the end, a total of 16 directors participated in the project. Fu Dongyu asked all the directors to chat with the prototypes; if the prototypes were sacrificed and died, they would have to talk to the younger generations who are the most familiar with the characters. Because, "During the process of chatting with prototypes, the moment he moved you, the point of breaking the question may be there."

A number of actors participating in "Ice Rain" also appeared in "ideal to China". Chen Xiao starred in "The Poet of the Relief" He Jingping, and wrote a touching red poem with his persistence in hope and light in his bones; Wang Yibo starred in Jiang Xianyun in "Choice", and in the man's manner’s manner’s manner Her hard work, shaping the character's heroic and unique sense of firmness; Wang Jinsong starred in "The Bonfire of the Snow Country", starring the old money in the cooking class when the Red Army crossed the snow mountain. Native

Although it is a revolutionary historical drama, the ultimate temperament of "ideal shining China" is realistic, as Fu Dongyu said: "We are filming the ideal, and at the same time, it is shining with ideals. Realism is in the blood."

For how to better realize this "realism", Fu Dongyu has been calling for the industrialization standards of film and television creation. When he remembered that when he entered the Shanghai Film Studio in 1990, everyone posted a film production manual, the requirements for the type of work were based on American films. For example, each employee must wear leather shoes with fur and glue gloves; all the wires are tangled with a bundle and tangled in the corner; a lens is taken and packed, and the next shot will be taken out. Leakage ... This is standardization, the rigor of the shooting process and the sincerity of the creative attitude.

Film and television art only appeared after the development of industrial civilization. Film and television creation is a matter of intensive completion. Like the factories, screenwriters, directors, actors, photography, production, etc. can make these dimensions. This work will be good.

Each shooting of a work, Fu Dongyu strives to find a certain standard of this type. When he created "The Heart of the Medical" earlier, he almost watched the good dramas of the medical theme, and then set a standard. The same is true before shooting "Ice Breaking Action". He watched a large number of excellent episodes worldwide, and learned how to put people in an extreme drama state, which burst into power and show human struggle and the struggle and Twisted.

The popularity of "Ice Breaking Action" made his name know more, but in his opinion, although "Ice Breaking Action" has reached a certain standard from the perspective of the type of film, there is still a regret -it can do it It is more typical.

When he arrived in "Bing Rain", he wanted to do better. In an interview with the media, he said: "The reason why I made" Ice Rain and Fire "is mainly because of the creation and presentation of" Ice Breaking Action ". , Authentic and typical police bandit drama.

On the one hand, the structure and suspense of the play are more refined and complicated. At the beginning of "Ice Rain", the chef of the restaurant was killed, and he was the secret toxist of the new drug "Big Yellow Capsule". During the investigation, police Chen Yu found that Wu Zhenfeng, who had disappeared for three years, had a lot of relationships with all of this. With the appearance of various people waiting, the relationship between the characters is wrong. The question of "who is the villain" has become more complicated. It seems that everyone is carrying secrets. It is the atmosphere of the brain burning that tests the choice of people in the play, and also firmly attracts the attention of the audience.

On the other hand, the proportion of action dramas. There are a large number of dramas in the play, and the standardized shooting process is used: the action team first uses computer modeling to design action; then martial arts will perform pre -shooting shooting; Under the standardized operation, the lens scheduling in the play is smooth and the visual expression is extremely rich.

"Ice Rain and Fire" play

For actors, whether they are young or old, Fu Dongyu's request is to allow them to finish their opponents' lines outside their lines and complete the performance. And older actors are responsible for acting. It is such a request that the potential of young actors is exerted, and the aura showed in the camera is not inferior, giving the character a sense of layering.
