Demonstrate solar terms phenology
Tell a strange story in the secret of the tea garden
On April 20, it rained in the valley. This is the last festival of spring, taken from the "rainy hundred grains", which means that the rain is moist, the temperature rises, the farmers are gradually multiplied, the fields are busy sowing, and the mountains are busy picking tea. According to the main creative team, "The Adventures of Gu Yu" takes the festival custom of picking tea in Gu Yu as the background and main imagery, draws on "Peach Blossom Origin", and creates a tea garden secret through montage and other artistic techniques.
Like the previous "Chinese Solar Terms - The Adventures of the Spring Equinox", "The Adventures of Gu Yu" follows the unique observation perspective of Mr. Jieqi's "Illusion Space" to narrate. When the Big Dipper seven stars turn as a pointer, stopping at the valley rainy season, Mr. Jieqi poured two cups of tea and put them on the tea table, and the spring light of the human field was corresponding, and the story began...
"Before the spring valley rains, and pick the smoke by hand." In the Tea Garden of Xinyang in Henan, tea farmers shouted that "three days early is a treasure, three days late is grass", and they were busy picking Guyu tea. Advertising director Lu Yu (Tong Mengshi) is shooting a short film about the theme of "a good life" here, but due to the pressure of work, he suddenly can't see the color, and only black and white are left in front of him. Under the guidance of a piece of tea, Lu Yu mistakenly entered the secret place of the tea garden, the mist of the cloud mountain, the emerald green and waist, met a mysterious and enthusiastic girl Ye Jia (Played by Chen Turing), and began a journey of tea garden adventure...
It is reported that "The Adventures of Gu Yu" is mainly based on the real scene shooting of Xinyang Tea Mountain, not only the scenery of tea gardens, but also the cliff homestay, as well as the local natural and cultural customs such as Huxin Tea Island, and the use of AI, XR and other technologies to show the emerald green vitality of the April mountains and rivers in the world with a poetic picture, showing the phenological characteristics of the festival of Gu Yu. In the story, folk traditional crafts such as tea picking, roasting tea, tea making, and tea tasting are also skillfully interspersed to add to the charm of the program.
Fusion of solar terms
Convey the emotion of "good life" in search of authenticity
In the "Chinese Solar Terms" series of programs, the main creative team hopes that in addition to having the significance of solar terms and popular science, each issue can convey an emotional and spiritual philosophy through a story of adventures close to the present.
Guyu is at the turn of spring and summer, and in the past traditional farming era, it was an important festival to guide the sowing of crops, and it was also full of beautiful symbols of vigorous growth. At the time of the planning of "The Adventure of Gu Yu", the main creative team combined the connotation of solar term characteristics and determined the theme of "good life" as the theme of this issue.
In this journey of the secret adventure of the tea garden, Lu Yu, led by Ye Jia, enjoyed the natural beauty of the rainy season in the valley, felt the simple enthusiasm and warmth of the tea farmers in the tea garden, and gradually restored the color of the world in his eyes. When the rain fell for a long time, Lu Yufang realized the true meaning of "good life"... The role of Ye Jia in the program actually contains a clever idea of the main creator, which originates from the strange text "Ye Jia Biography" written by Su Shi for tea in an anthropomorphic techniques. The emotions expressed in the original work that advocate nature and are indifferent and idyllic are also in line with the intention of the program.
"The fast-paced, high-pressure modern life has brought a lot of anxiety to people, and we hope that in this program, we can use such a delicate and gentle story to bring the audience a sense of calmness and a beautiful hope of 'sudden enlightenment' with the image of a green and refreshing tea garden." According to the main creative team, in particular, in addition to the main story, there is also a side line that also expresses the pursuit of the real "good life" and appreciates the true meaning of beauty.
