This 2023-2024 New Year's Eve drama is starring Hu Ge, with Ma Yili, Tang Yan, and Xin Zhilei as the female leads, adding luster to the whole drama.
Following the two trailers "Time is Like Water - Po Chapter" and "Blooming Flowers - Bao Chapter", it has been continuously listed on hot searches, arousing public curiosity. The final trailer of the series "The Age of Flowers" and the matching theme poster were also released on December 18 Big release today. Director Wong Kar-Wai gave a special interpretation of this trailer, "The drama series "Flowers" introduces the times, because our story is about Po, who has nothing, and how he became the all-powerful boss in just ten years. In addition to For his personal struggle, he needs the blessing of the times. We chose "No Place to Shame" by Black Panther because this song represents the vitality, passion, sorrow and joy of countless Ah Bao in that era."
The story of this drama revolves around Ah Bao, played by Hu Ge. Bao unfolds. In the early 1990s, during the great era of Huanghuang, everyone was vying for the top spot. Bao also became President Bao. He had successes and failures, leaving a legend among the trend-setting people in Shanghai. Through the fate of different characters, we can see a real and vivid scene of Shanghai, which is not only the past events of Shanghai, but also the story of an era.
In the play, there are three golden flowers in Shanghai, one on each side, and women are not inferior to men. Lingzi, played by Ma Yili, and Abao jointly open a restaurant full of urban smoke and smoke on Jinxian Road to spend the night in Tokyo. As a female boss in Shanghai, she is versatile, adaptable, affectionate and righteous. Hu Ge jokingly said, "Lingzi and Abao are like Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie. Sun Wukong is Lingzi, who has great supernatural powers and can overcome obstacles ahead." The scene on Jinxian Road is also full of the flavor of the gang.
Miss Wang, played by Tang Yan, works in a foreign trade company at No. 27 on the Bund. Her relationship with A Bao is like the minute hand and the second hand, moving hand in hand in the torrent of time. The first batch of female white-collar workers to enter society in the 1990s started in Shanghai.
Li Li, played by Xin Zhilei, is a mysterious comer on the Huanghe Road, who owns the top restaurant Zhizhenyuan. The relationship with Abao is like the sea and the blue sky. They seem far away, but they are mirror images of each other. The three female characters all have distinctive characteristics of the times.
Since the project was announced, every move of the drama "Flowers" has aroused the curiosity of the audience. As the leading actors attended the Tencent Video Starlight Awards, the veil was finally lifted. The three trailers are sublimated from time and city scenes to individuals and sentient beings in the era. Just like director Wong Kar-wai's interpretation, crossing the river by feeling the stones is the memory and voice of that generation.
It is reported that "Flowers" will be launched in a bilingual version. The Shanghai version of "Flowers" has an authentic Shanghai flavor. Taking into account the viewing habits of audiences across the country, the actors specially recorded the Mandarin version and also devoted their efforts.
