The rural education drama "Spring Breeze and Rain" will be officially broadcast on Dragon TV, Beijing TV, Tencent Video, Mango TV, and iQiyi from 19:30 on August 27. Today, the drama released a long group poster and theme song MV. In the poster, rural teachers and students stand in a school building surrounded by green mountains, full of greenery and hope. In the MV "Thank You Teacher", the warm and simple singing voice sings the students' gratitude to the teachers for their teaching and companionship, and expresses the teachers' sincerity in responding to "being needed" with perseverance.

It is reported that the drama is a special fund project for guiding and supporting TV dramas of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, a major literary and artistic creation funding project of the Shanghai Culture Development Foundation, a key project for supporting the creation of high-quality literary and artistic works in Guizhou Province, and a major cultural boutique support project in Shaanxi Province. It is jointly produced by Baina Qiancheng, Fude Culture, and Xi'an Film Studio, with Rao Jun as the screenwriter and Wang Junye as the chief director. It is led by Tong Liya, Yang Jue, and Zhang Junning, with Liu Peiqi and Kang Aishi as special guests. The story is based on the comprehensive promotion of rural revitalization and a group of unknown rural teachers as the creative objects. It tells the story of how they have been rooted in rural education positions for decades, watering generations of students with love and hard work, helping them pursue their dreams and change their destiny.

Heartfelt story: Rooted in the mountains to restore the real rural education. The plot is solid and compact, and the daily life of the rural school resonates with people.

The TV series "Spring Breeze and Rain" is based on many real rural schools in the southwest. The main creative team once went to the mountains to conduct field surveys, carefully observed the campus environment, and obtained a lot of first-hand materials from field surveys such as daily teaching and student home visits. With the joint efforts of the actors and the behind-the-scenes team, every detail of a rural school was successfully restored, allowing the real and vivid "Heping Middle School" to appear before the audience.

In the first episode, the heroine An Yan (played by Tong Liya) is a junior high school physics teacher at Heping Middle School. She manages both teaching and students' daily life. She uses "sauerkraut for meat" to improve the children's meals and protect their dignity. For the healthy growth of children, she is willing to repeatedly act as a "bad guy" to solve troubles and disputes. And this "Mistress Miejue" who regards children as the bottom line also deeply inspired Cong Junsheng, a volunteer teacher from the city, and gradually transformed him from a bystander of rural education to a real participant. At the same time, the plot is closely related to the background of the times. It takes the national nutritious lunch policy as the starting point, and uses meals to string together the daily life of teachers and students in rural schools, outlining the difficulties faced by rural education. As the teaching team appears one by one, students with different personalities take turns to appear, which also makes people look forward to seeing more of the teachers and students of Heping Middle School in the subsequent plot. The campus life is full of laughter and touching.

A moving group portrait: three generations of teachers and students have a rich growth story and truly depict the friendship between teachers and students across generations

The series does not adopt one-sided preaching expressions such as teachers' efforts and students' gratitude. Instead, it uses the way of interweaving the growth of characters with the progress of the plot to deeply explore the stories behind the big and small characters: the comparison of memories before and after ten years reveals the "original intention" of An Yan, who is devoted to students, and also implies that she will make a choice between family and career. When Cong Junsheng, a volunteer teacher, first arrived, he was full of enthusiasm. It was not until he followed An Yan's home visits and calmed down to understand the students that he finally realized that the children in the mountains "need not sympathy but empathy", the key to educating people. Zhang Nan, a proud college student, was born in poverty and had memories of being too poor to eat meat and ashamed to stay for the teacher for dinner. Although he now has the opportunity to stay in the city, he wants to return to the mountains to be a guide for the younger generation. Pei Fanghui, a left-behind student, has to take care of her younger brother while taking care of her studies. With the help of teachers, she was able to improve her life with dignity by helping in the kitchen. The rich creation of growth lines makes the characters three-dimensional and vivid, and also makes the emotional expressions such as teacher-student relationships, colleagues, and family relationships more delicate and moving, which resonates with the audience.

Moreover, the interaction between the characters in the play points to the real "difficulties" of rural education, such as the nutrition problems of rural students, the plight of left-behind teenagers, and the decision of rural teachers to stay or go. The story does not give a standard answer directly, but starts from the details such as the running-in of new and old teachers, the relationship between teachers and students, and the establishment of trust between teachers and children. It focuses on the subtle details of the plot, such as a can of pickled cabbage and a home visit, and shows the deep friendship between teachers and students in a plain and sincere way, which moved the audience.

Theme is profound: The main creators talked about their creations, the screening was widely praised, and the focus on educational topics was presented as a tribute to the 40th Teachers' Day

"Spring Breeze and Rain" also held a "school opening ceremony" theme film viewing recently. All members of the main creative team attended the scene to watch the series and talk about creation with the media, students from normal universities, etc. The young actors who played students in the play all came to the scene to give "Teacher An" an unexpected surprise, and also pushed the atmosphere of the film viewing to a climax. The audience asked questions enthusiastically, and the interactive atmosphere was warm. Rooted in Guizhou for many months of filming, the leading actress Tong Liya not only knows the types of Guizhou pickled cabbage like the back of her hand, but also talks about the interpretation of the role of An Yan spanning 20 years. From the changes in appearance details to the growth of mentality, it is full of insights. Screenwriter Rao Jun admitted that the creation of the story took more than 3 years. Not only did he incorporate his own personal experience, he also conducted a lot of field investigations, interviews, and temporary work, hoping to inject the "soul" into the story with what he learned from practice. Director Wang Junye supplemented the original intention of screenwriter Rao Jun in writing the script with "a poem dedicated to my hometown". When talking about the highlights of filming the play, he described the rural teachers in the play as "sunshine shining in closed corners", expressing the feelings of artists who care about the countryside, education, and growth. Xiao Tianren, a young actor who played the childhood Zhang Nan, presented the admission letter to Cao Jun, who played the adult Zhang Nan, and staged a touching scene of "I will become you when I grow up". Veteran actor Liu Peiqi expressed his feelings that improving the quality of education for children in the mountains is not only related to a family, but also to the entire society. Yang Jue, the physics magician in the play, also performed the unique skill of "splitting bricks with bare hands" on the spot, which attracted cheers from the audience.

This screening will bring many surprises and touches to everyone. Some viewers described the drama as "silent and healing", believing that the drama has both the ties between teachers and students and the conflict between old and new concepts, but the main theme throughout is "a simple kindness". Some media people also commented that the drama is a long-lost theme of middle school teachers and students, with a novel perspective, and has opened a new window for domestic drama audiences.

It is reported that the TV series "Delicate Flowers" will be broadcast on Dragon TV and Beijing Satellite TV every night at 19:30 starting from August 27, 2024. It will also be broadcast simultaneously on Tencent Video, Mango TV, and iQiyi members. Stay tuned.
