The three-piece combination of dog blood, horse catching, and dirt falling away has become a common three-piece suit in Chinese dramas.

For example, Yang Zi starred in the life drama " Cheng Huan Ji ". I thought it would be a sweet and healing drama, but the relationship between mother and daughter broke down, and the alley girl met the rich second generation. It was simply a joy to watch. People's blood pressure soars.

There are even car accidents, cancer and other nonsense and scum. This kind of messy and suspended life is really difficult for ordinary people to empathize with.

And in "Gloomy Fire", it is a setting for a married woman to fall in love with a high school student.

's wave after wave of "mother-child love" is simply overwhelming. It seems that only this outrageous setting can attract the audience.

This also means that after entering 2024, there will be only a handful of domestic dramas that can be produced.

However, CCTV’s 25-episode drama, which will be broadcast tomorrow night, is likely to be a rescue work in the near future. From the plot to the lineup, people are full of expectations.

First, the plot direction, three major highlights to make entrepreneurial dramas high-quality

" The Hometown of Stars " tells the story of the Ningxia wine industry from scratch, and puts the struggles of three generations of old, middle and young people on the screen , taking the growth of two young people as the main perspective, showing the audience new developments and opportunities in Ningxia’s wine industry.

Judging from the synopsis of the story, it is a typical entrepreneurial drama. The most feared thing about such works is that they are bloody.

Fortunately, judging from the trailers released so far, this drama is not only close to reality, but also a very high-quality work.

Highlight 1: The dilemma between music dream and winery

The play sets the background of the story on the eve of the 2008 Olympic Games, and the entry point is the young girl Ouyang Yixing (played by Pan Zhilin).

She was successfully promoted to a cellist in a top orchestra and fulfilled her music dream. As long as she persists in her dream, she will surely have better development in the future.

But at this moment, her father suddenly suffered a misfortune and became a vegetative state, and the winery, which she had devoted half her life to, was also facing life and death worries.

The first highlight of "Hometown of Stars" is what choice Ouyang Yixing will make between his music dream and the winery. Should he stick to the life he wants, or help his father fulfill his wish?

If he chooses the latter, it will be difficult for Ouyang Yixing, who has never been in this industry and has no idea about wine and wineries.

Therefore, Ouyang Yixing's entry into the wine industry is, in a sense, the start from scratch for an ordinary entrepreneur.

Point 2: Solve your own development difficulties

But the trouble Ouyang Yixing faces is not only that he does not understand the industry. While doing his homework, he also has to solve the actual problems of the winery. In the

trailer, workers surrounded her and told Ouyang Yixing an unacceptable news: the winery's capital chain had long been broken.

Workers' wages are one thing. Whether the production line can continue to operate is also a problem. Whether orders can be delivered as scheduled will also be a direct trouble faced by Ouyang Yixing.

How to grow better grapes and how to make these grapes resist frost, insect infestations, diseases and other natural problems will also be what Ouyang Yixing needs to overcome.

Point 3: Real and twists and turns of business competition

Although the development of Ningxia wine industry is from scratch, it cannot be separated from the efforts of the older generation, but it is also inseparable from the persistence of the new generation. In this process , must constantly resist various business competitions.

In the trailer, there was a plot where someone sold the core secrets of Xingxing Winery to a rival, and there were also people who wanted to take advantage of the trouble and buy Xingxing Winery at a low price.

In addition, as the brand effect gradually takes hold, there is also the question of whether to buy grapes from other places if there are not enough grapes in the production area, and the deep-pocketed peers are dragging down wineries by selling at low prices. These are all real and A tough business war.

Fortunately, the male and female protagonists in the play did not forget their original intentions and grew together. They not only established a famous brand in Ningxia's wine industry, but also made wine that ordinary consumers can afford.

With these three realistic plot settings, the entrepreneurial drama "Hometown of the Stars" will not overturn.

Secondly, the lineup is oriented, with strong actors gathered, and national first-class actors supporting the scene.

CCTV has always had a precise vision in drama selection. This "Hometown of the Stars" can be valued not only because of the plot, but also because of the actors.

heroine Pan Zhilin is an old acquaintance of everyone. She entered the entertainment industry as a child star. In recent years, she has appeared in " Glorious Era " and " Come on!" Mom ", "Fuchun Mountain Residence" and other works.

's biggest advantage in starring in "Hometown of Stars" is that she has previously starred in a similar drama "Green Waters and Green Mountains with Smiling Faces", which is also a work about the heroine returning to her hometown to start a business and develop the rural economy. Returning to the field she is good at, it is naturally easy for Pan Zhilin to control.

Actor Xu Yang has previously been exposed to mostly industry dramas, such as " Flying with You in the Wind ", " Falling in Love with Navy Blue ", " Emergency Rescue ", etc. He is also a man who has served in the military in the entertainment industry.

This time, he plays the male protagonist who is a genius winemaker, and his character is very eye-catching. As for Xu Yang, a low-key and talented person, it is obviously not a problem to play the role well.

Among Mesozoic actors, Wu Qijiang, a golden supporting actor who has appeared in "大江大河", "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky", "Mountains and Seas" and other works, has successively delivered many major dramas.

This time he plays the image of a leader, and he is also a role in the comfort zone. Wu Qijiang has a face within the system, which is indeed very suitable for portraying this kind of leader who is dedicated to doing practical things for the people.

Three national first-class actors directly supported the scene of this drama. The first one is the familiar Wang Jinsong, who was also seen in the last CCTV drama "City Within a City".

Old, sinister, and deep, this is the intuitive feeling given by Wang Jinsong when he portrays a negative image, but this time he plays a positive character, an older generation winemaker who remains true to his original intention of making Ningxia wine. He has begun to look forward to Wang Jinsong's rise. Performed.

The second national first-class actor Guo Jinglin is also a low-key veteran actor. He has previously portrayed the image of Yuan Longping, and his performance is vivid and soul-stirring. He is one of the few who can portray the role in a way that looks like a god. More like an actor.

In "Hometown of the Stars", he is dressed in a suit, full of elite style, and his eyes alone make him an unpredictable character. It is obvious that he will raise the level of his acting skills in the entire drama.

and Li Mengnan, a first-class actor from the National Theater, will also play important roles in the play. They alone can give everyone reassurance.

Who doesn’t look forward to such a CCTV drama?
