"They are all ordinary people, and they are all extraordinary heroes, the pandemic will eventually pass, and they look forward to the triumphant return of the heroes in the spring." Jiang Dongmin and Li Ying, screenwriters of the Shanghai Theater who created the Shanghai opera drama "Ala Shanghainese" and "All the Way with You" overnight, said.

The couple rushed to make bread and snacks overnight and sent them to major hospitals to send a little love from ordinary people to the medical workers who are fighting in the frontline. "All the Way with You" also took place on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the streets were slightly cold, the dean's office was in full swing, and medical workers rushed from home to the hospital to respond to the call to Wuhan for medical assistance. Among them are ordinary people, and more are party members. After getting two scripts, Mao Shanyu of Shanghai Shanghai Theater did not rush to find actors, "I hope to make the script more solid, with distinct characters and vivid plots, and later perform, which can be performed in the hearts of the people." She asked the screenwriter to revise it again, the perspective is broader, not limited to one person and one thing," write more group portraits, such as the continuous telephone in the hospital, some medical workers entrust their children to their parents, some people cut off long hair, convenient to wear protective clothing, some people say, party members, stand up! ”
