At the same time, the drama was also broadcast on CCTV 1 and 8. After the broadcast, the ratings were also very good. The ratings have been above 1.7, and successfully exceeded 2 at the highest point. The ratings of
far exceed those of other film and television dramas of the same type. It can be said to be CCTV’s first major drama of the new year!
The success of "Flowers" comes from all aspects. Whether it is lighting, photography, actors' acting skills or the plot, it can be said to be impeccable. Wong Kar-wai put the idea of making a movie into a TV series and taught many directors a lesson.
As long as you are willing to work hard and put in effort, you can make a good TV series. Even if it is a TV series with more than 30 episodes, you can make every episode like a movie.
The cast of "Flowers" can be regarded as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". One or two unexpected actors will be unlocked almost every time, such as Fan Zhiyi, Kong Xiangdong, Wen Zhaolun, etc.
But there are also many "connected households" among them. Of course, these connected households are not the kind of "connected households" that destroy the balance of the plot and steal the protagonist's role. Instead, they add "icing on the cake" to the drama and add many surprises and surprises. .
Hu Ge's wife made a surprise guest appearance as a passerby
When "Flowers" first aired, many netizens discovered that Hu Ge's wife appeared in the show, playing the role of passerby. Although the shot lasted less than two seconds, the scene flashed by , successfully discovered by sharp-eyed netizens.
As we all know, Hu Ge has been in the industry for many years, and emotional issues have always been the focus of fans and audiences. When Hu Ge, Yuan Hong and other friends got married and had children, and Hu Ge was still single, fans were worried about Hu Ge's lifelong events.
On January 31, 2023, Hu Ge announced that he would get married and have a daughter. Everyone suddenly realized that Hu Ge was doing big things quietly, but because his wife Huang Xining was not an insider, Hu Ge protected her very well.
made a surprise guest appearance in the drama this time, probably because he was temporarily brought in by the director to save the scene and make up the number.
Deng Chao and Sun Li's children guest-starred as the piano teacher's students
They all said that the only ones who could play the role of Mr. Wei were Deng Chao and Zheng Kai. Because this person is thick-skinned and humorous enough, people can naturally relate to him.
Many people expressed regret that Deng Chao and Sun Li did not appear in "Flowers". Although they did not participate in the filming, their children did make a guest appearance.
In the play, when Abao went to Lingzi's house to find her, there was a piano teacher teaching children to practice piano, and the children were Waiting and Sister Xiaohua.
This can be said to be the surprise among surprises. I didn’t expect that the first screen appearance of Waiting and Little Flower Sister would be given to director Wong Kar Wai.
The canteen owner is the co-director
The canteen owner can be said to be a highlight of the show. When the boss ladies on Huanghe Road are fighting fiercely, only the canteen owner Jing Xiu is alone, making money from all directions without being affected.
At the same time, at the end of each episode, there is a short commercial, also performed by Kyung Soo. Just when everyone was curious about which actor played Jingxiu, who would definitely make a fortune this time, when they looked at the cast list, they discovered that the actor who played the role was Cheng Liang, the co-director of the play.
The director himself played a supporting role, and he performed it so well. It was an unexpected surprise. The last person to do this was Li Muge in "Si Teng".
Director Cheng Liang actually has a professional background. He graduated from the Directing Department of Beijing Film Academy and has been in the industry for many years. He is also the only Shanghai-born director in the crew of "Flowers", so many Shanghai-related elements in the play are inseparable from his work. guide.
In addition to "Flowers", Cheng Liang has also directed many movies and TV series. In 2017, he collaborated with Li Xian on "Shanghai Women's Illustrated Book". In 2015, he filmed the work of the 20th Busan International Film Festival. Wang Xiaoshuai supervised the suspense short film "Loneliness" "Love", although there are not many works outside the circle, but after "Flowers", more people must have recognized him.
In fact, "Flowers" also has many surprising "connections". Their appearance makes this drama even more amazing. Every character is just right. I am looking forward to the subsequent plot and want to see which actors will appear!
