Liu Jiayin Teachers’ Day Hu Ge confessed that Xiao Yin redeemed Wen Shan

September 10th is Teachers’ Day. On this special day, Liu Jiayin also expressed her gratitude to her teacher Cao Baoping, who also served as the producer of "It’s a Worthy Trip". It is also because of Cao Baoping’s promotion that "It’s a Worthy Trip" can be presented to everyone. Liu Jiayin describes the origin of the creation: "The problem between screenwriting and creation is actually difficult to solve, so I haven’t created for a long time, and Teacher Cao often’takes a small whip to beat me ‘. Finally, I wrote the script of" It’s a Worthy Trip "and handed it to him. Teacher Cao also thought it was a good script after reading it. Wen Shan is also a unique character, and then he said, come on, let’s start! Teacher Cao’s dedication has always had a very good influence on me. "In the film, Wen Shanzai is also inspired by the teacher he plays, who guides Wen Shan to enjoy the second act of life. Although it may be long, the third act of life may be around the corner. The spiritual inheritance and emotional transmission between teachers and students will always be a precious treasure in our lives.

 

In the roadshow, referring to the role of Xiao Yin, Hu Ge believes that he is a role in redeeming Wen Shan: "Xiao Yin is the object of Wen Shan’s heart to pour out, and many times he becomes the other side of Wen Shan, a braver and more daring to express Wen Shan." As Gan Yunchen, who plays Lao Lu, said in the roadshow: "At the beginning of the movie, I think it tells the story of a person who writes a eulogy; after a while, I find that it tells the story of a group of deceased people; when I see the end, I find that it tells the story of everyone." In "It’s Worth It", if we calm down, maybe we can all find our own shadow and our own redemption.

Duan Tingting, a professor at the art school of Jinan University, said the film "captured many beautiful moments in the world that are usually not noticed by everyone."

 

Wang Zhenguo, a film festival curator and film critic, says: "The character of Wen Shan tells us that if you listen to the world, you can see infinite wonders." Liu Yushu, a teacher of digital media art at Guangdong University of Finance, believes the film tells us: "In today’s fickle society, if every ordinary person can do their own thing, we can also walk through the second act of our lives." Filmmaker Qiu Qing believes that the film "turned the eulogy into the last poem of life". Director Chen Zhihai, executive committee member of the Youth and New Arts Group Committee of the Guangdong Film Association, said: "Although it is about life and death, it can bring tears to our eyes."

 

In the movie "It’s Worth It", Wen Shan, as the "person who writes the eulogy", is also "sending everyone the last journey with words". During the process of writing the eulogy, he met all kinds of clients, including Mr. Wang (played), Wan siblings (played by Gu Yaozhi, played by); Shao Jinsui (played by), who asked for the explanation for the deceased netizens; Lao Lu (Gan Yunchen, played by), an entrepreneur who wrote the eulogy for a colleague; and Auntie Fang (played by), who booked the eulogy service for herself. On the way to Wen Shan’s growth, in addition to Xiao Yin (Wu Lei, played), who accompanied him along the way, there were also teachers (Sun Chun, played), friends who worked in the funeral home, Pan Congcong (played), and caregivers with stories (Yang Qingsheng, played). In the encounter with everyone, Wen Shan also gradually accepted his imperfect self and realized that even if internal friction is often present, he must persevere.
