Sa Beining, Mengman and others put on the costumes of the Tang Dynasty and wandered around the historical East Market and West Market, and communicated face-to-face with Han Yu at different life stages, re-witnessing the birth process of those eternal masterpieces... These scenes It comes from the large-scale cultural variety show "The Biography of the Grand Masters: Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties" launched by CCTV. For the first time, this program completely breaks the expression form of traditional cultural variety shows, and innovates the presentation method of traditional cultural celebrity feature films in a unique form. The newly presented program mode of

directly touches on the historical moment when famous works of the Tang and Song Dynasties were born that have been passed down for thousands of years. In the program, the host Sa Beining formed a "Cultural Visiting Team" and traveled thousands of years ago as a "contemporary person" to open a first-person perspective, interview the legendary life of the master, and reveal the birth process of famous works. And they will follow Sa Beining as "ancient people" and travel back thousands of years to the modern city to revisit their old places, visit Heqing Haiyan again, and see the peace of the country and the people.

The "Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties" composed of Han Yu, Liu Zongyuan, Ouyang Xiu, Su Xun, Su Shi, Su Che, Wang Anshi, and Zeng Gong can be called one of the "strongest cultural groups" in the Chinese context. Among them, Han Yu not only left behind eternal masterpieces such as "Horses", "Shishuo", and "Ji Twelve Lang Wen", but also created 331 idioms in his life, which can be called "the first person in ancient and modern idioms". The program begins with Han Yu, telling the ups and downs of his life experience, from being depressed and unable to become an official after ten years of studying in the capital, to achieving little success in his middle age but feeling sad for the ordinary people suffering from the war, and then to In his old age, he became a scholar and resisted the rebels. Han Yu's vast and rich life experience was unfolded through the exploration of the visiting group, and the personalities of everyone who were unfamiliar in the pile of old papers were presented in a three-dimensional way.

In the complete story line, three generations of powerful actors, including He Bing, Zhang Rui, Han Haolin, Xu Yajun, Lan Xi, and Liu Yitie, transformed into Han Yu and his family and friends. They cut through the life fragments of Han Yu at different stages of his life. It shows different aspects of Han Yu as a person, his writings and his thoughts. The program does not compromise the image quality because it is just a TV variety show. In order to truly restore the history of the Tang and Song Dynasties, the program team specially built the real scene at the Wuxi Film and Television Base of the main station and used film and television shooting to ensure the quality of the program. The program has built a total of nearly 200 magnificent physical scenes and adopted nearly 20,000 square meters of exquisite stage furnishings. At the same time, in line with the life trajectories of the eight great masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties, the program team simultaneously conducted joint recordings in more than ten cities and hundreds of locations, including Chaozhou, Liuzhou, and Huanggang, to enhance the dramatic effect of the collision of ancient and modern times.

Han Yu's story is divided into two parts. Each episode lasts nearly an hour and a half, and tells the story of Han Yu's life with the capacity of almost two movies. The rich detail capacity of the picture and the accuracy of knowledge that each frame has its source have made this program reach the ceiling level of domestic cultural variety show image expression. Although the program still features traditional cultural expert guests, the appearance of the guests does not abruptly interrupt the structure of the film and television content. The guests also integrate into the historical scenes as characters, supplementing the necessary knowledge background for the audience with appropriate questions and answers. . According to the creator of the program, in order to ensure the authority of historical facts and restore historical details to the greatest extent, the program also invited nearly a hundred people from the State Administration of Cultural Heritage, the Chinese Academy of History, Peking University, Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, the Chinese Tang Dynasty Literature Society and other institutions Experts and scholars check the details from different fields such as literature, history, clothing, art, etiquette, etc. to ensure that every link is well-founded and well-reasoned. There was a segment like this in the

program. When Sa Beining and his party walked on the streets of Chaozhou in the mid-Tang Dynasty, they discovered the schools established by Han Yu during his demotion. After Han Yu left, these schools were still full of books and were composed of This triggered the cultural inheritance of Chaozhou for thousands of years. These vivid and perceptible "historical details" that connect the past and the present further clarify the profound meaning of the program's choice of this theme. Focusing on the stories of the eight great masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties is by no means a meaningless nostalgia, but through the life experiences of the eight great masters and their current situation. The real cultural heritage left in history can inspire people today, and the cultural context continues and continues to flourish.
