国际在线:地球生命的旅程,自辽阔的海洋伊始。在那一汪深邃的蔚蓝中,潜藏着多少关乎文明的基因密码?在与海紧密相伴的一座座城市里,又有着多少值得挖掘的动人故事?

  近日,由中央广播电视总台央视网打造的国内首部沿海城市题材纪录片《蓝海中国》第一季将迎来收官。沿着我国1.8万公里的漫长大陆海岸线,该片渐次讲述着福州、珠海、厦门、宁波、深圳等十座城市的浪漫风情与繁荣图景。而在对海洋文化的挖掘、对海洋科技的探索、对海洋经济的洞察中,《蓝海中国》不仅脉络清晰地呈现出城市海洋文明的前世今生,也以海洋强国战略为指引,为中国海洋事业的发展奏出一曲激昂战歌。

伴海而生,打造海洋文明影像志

  近年来,国内以城市为题材的纪录片层出不穷,但多数聚焦于城市中的日常生活;探索海洋等专业领域的纪录片也不鲜见,但主要关注对生命奥秘的科普。此次,《蓝海中国》创新性地将两种题材结合,通过对十个沿海城市的“城海”故事的描摹,打造出一部“海洋文明影像志”。

  作为国内首部以沿海城市为题材的纪录片,《蓝海中国》将“海”的特质与“城”的风貌相融合,描摹出不同城市海洋文明的切面:北海的红树林展现着延续至今的海洋生态,珠海的宝镜湾岩画诉说着灿烂鲜活的历史文化,厦门的沙茶面是舌尖之上的悠闲海岸生活,深圳的智能化码头点燃繁盛的海洋经济,青岛的科研团队用智慧深挖有无限潜力的海洋科技……借由一个个故事,片中直观地呈现出,这条海岸线正一直孕育着文明的诸多可能性。

  在这部“影像志”中,尽管对海洋文明的描摹横跨数千年的时间,《蓝海中国》的叙事脉络其实并未以全景视角展开,也并不遵循时间纵轴行进,而是从主人公的视角,自然捕捉到沿海城市中的不同角落。比起教科书式的刻板介绍,这样对典型故事、典型场景的灵活运用,不仅给观众展示出更加生动的城市文明样态,更通过因地制宜的“定制模式”而给每座城市赋予不同的品格。北海的生态、深圳的创新、大连的时尚……镜头中,这些具有鲜明特色的主题凸显了当地海洋文明特色,同时隐喻着各个沿海城市内生的核心品质。

  通过对生态民俗的记录,呈现出沿海城市的发展脉络;通过对各领域前沿的追踪,梳理出海洋经济下的社会样态。以影像为媒,《蓝海中国》在科普性与可看性的交界中,描摹出了“城市海洋文明的前世今生”。

向海而兴,解码引领繁荣的海洋精神

  以沿海城市为原点,《蓝海中国》不仅强调“海与城”的紧密关联,更是着重刻画了“海与人”“人与城”的互动关系,因而具有鲜明的故事感。片中既见大时代又见小人物,二者共同交织成一组组具有深刻内核的中国海洋故事,并在以奋斗为主题的时代共鸣中,自然揭示出一种昂扬的“海洋精神”。

  在珠海,来自俄罗斯喀山的玛格丽特一家组建了全球最大的手技表演团队,将俄罗斯舞蹈和中国功夫等多种艺术相融合,诠释着中西荟萃的融洽;在大连,全球服装品牌和知名设计师每年汇聚于此进行洽谈,大连的服装产业也持续走向世界,承载着通达世界的交流……这些讲述沿海城市与世界热情相拥的故事,正映证着海洋给予人最鲜明的印象——开阔、包容。

  These people-centered stories have also created a group of indomitable group portraits of "sea chasers" and "sea breakers".

In Ningbo, a family of five generations of tower guards passed down the mission of the lighthouse from generation to generation on the 0.03-square-kilometer Qili Islet, adhering to the original intention of guarding the route; in Fuzhou, a teacher tried his best to find a shipbuilder to restore the shipbuilding craftsmanship of a hundred years ago, and finally The success made Fuchuan, an ancient Chinese-style sailboat, set sail again on the necessary route for Zheng He's fleet to stop at Fuzhou 600 years ago; Introducing the foreign street food truck culture into the city, and incorporating local food and cultural elements into the creation... As the film's chief producer Ding Pengfei said, as an individual, the current "ocean spirit" in China should be another life. The pattern is, "It is not one's own joys and sorrows, a glass of water storm, but the solidarity between the individual and the country's destiny. People seek and pursue the value of life in the coordinates of history and the country."

  From this level, the understanding and presentation of the ocean in "Blue Ocean China" does not stop at the prosperous shoal, but touches the soul surging in the deep blue.

Combining vivid and perceptible typical presentations, "Blue Ocean China" allows the audience not only to understand the spiritual background of the development of marine civilization, but also to understand the spiritual core of China's economic take-off.

Expanding the sea and prospering, seeing the new journey of marine power

  As an art form based on reality, documentaries often assume the function of observing society, and at the same time can connect with the proposition of the times.

As the first documentary work in China to focus on the development of marine undertakings in coastal cities, "Blue Ocean China" does not simply focus on the urban landscape, but excavates the various explorations and practices of these cities' strategies for marine power in multiple stories.

  From transportation, industry, science and technology to environmental protection, education, medicine and other fields, the ocean breeds unlimited opportunities.

In the film, through the perspectives of "navigators" and "screw" in various fields, it can be seen that the first automated green dock in Xiamen is lined with tower cranes, and the automated machinery supports the prosperity from day to night; In 1898, the splicing of giant ships was carried out in the Dalian Shipyard, which witnessed the rise of China's shipbuilding industry; the "big windmill" on the sea of ​​Xinghua Bay marked that China's wind power development capability has become the first in the world. The assiduous study of the 10 MW offshore typhoon-resistant wind turbine; the researchers rooted in the laboratory use the renewable resources in the ocean to realize the research and development of degradable materials... The achievements of building a marine power in the new era are spread on the screen.

  这些纪实性的典型故事,也在大众中提升对海洋强国建设意义的认知度。作为一部从网络端首发的纪录片,《蓝海中国》依托中央广播电视总台新媒体矩阵传输影响力,正片之外,社交平台相关标签下还有着多部刻画沿海城市的快节奏短视频。从连续59年向港澳市场输送鲜活冷冻商品的珠海供港澳蔬菜加工配送中心,全球原油吞吐量和铁矿石吞吐量第一的超级大港青岛港,到从三亚出发、完成总长度1059千米的人工地震剖面测线的“探索一号”,以及新中国第一所海军军官学校海军大连舰艇学院……融合震撼的视觉享受与颇具趣味的剧情,这些呈现内容既从宏观层面展示海洋强国总体战略,又从微观层面触动观众共情,为全民关注海洋、经略海洋创造了氛围。

  起笔于海陆之间的交界线,《蓝海中国》勾画着沿海城市的多元风采,讲述着“赶海人”们搏击风浪的坚定无畏,记录着中国迈向海洋强国的沉稳步伐。在那抹千万年来不曾褪色的蔚蓝底色中,《蓝海中国》对中华民族远航之路进行了一次回望,也对未来发出将继续迎击风浪、勇立潮头的宣誓。
