Character evaluation

Liu Jiacheng's works are based on real life and have the characteristics of paying attention to the fate of small people. In his works, no matter the lens, lines or details, are permeated with "warm realism". In the TV series "silly spring", he set up every character with a serious and rigorous attitude. He can experience the joys and sorrows of little people, love and hate. No matter what the theme is, Liu's Chengdu family has poured realism and romanticism into it (a comprehensive review by Xinhuanet, Tao Hong and Wang Fenglin, vice chairman and Secretary General of China Film Producers Association).

Liu Jiacheng has a good reputation as a director of Beijing style in the circle. Every work by Liu Jiacheng sweeps across the screen in a dark horse manner, without hundreds of millions of productions, but he always wins with story and texture. From the TV series "shachun", "zhengyangmenxia" to "Qingman Siheyuan" and then to "zhengyangmenxia little woman", although the stories of these series are different, their style and core come down in one continuous line, that is, the reproduction of the truth, goodness and beauty of human nature and the trace of the excellent traditional culture of old Beijing. Looking at the works directed by Liu Jiacheng, it is not difficult to find that there are many types of themes, such as ancient costume, military, public security, age, urban life, and even idol dramas. He didn't stay in his comfort zone, but constantly challenged the limits of his own creation until he formed his own clear "Beijing flavor" style: thick historical background, humorous language, and exquisite narrative style in the atmosphere (Beijing Morning Post).
