1958年9月4日,當時的北京電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)臺(tai)播出了(le)電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)劇(ju)《黨(dang)救活了(le)他》。這是根據上海廣(guang)慈(ci)醫院搶救被燒傷的煉鋼(gang)工(gong)人丘財康的真(zhen)(zhen)實(shi)事(shi)跡而(er)創作的紀(ji)實(shi)性電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)劇(ju)。由(you)此以后,這種(zhong)“真(zhen)(zhen)人真(zhen)(zhen)事(shi)”性電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)劇(ju)。由(you)此以后,這種(zhong)“真(zhen)(zhen)人真(zhen)(zhen)事(shi)”類(lei)型的紀(ji)實(shi)電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)劇(ju),紀(ji)實(shi)電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)劇(ju),成為中(zhong)國主(zhu)旋律電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)劇(ju)范(fan)圍(wei)內的一個重(zhong)要類(lei)型。
1958年9月4日,北京電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)臺(中央電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)臺的前身)又播(bo)(bo)出(chu)了(le)第二部電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)直(zhi)(zhi)播(bo)(bo)劇(ju)《黨救(jiu)活了(le)他(ta)(ta)》,反(fan)映的是上海廣慈醫院全體醫務人員全力搶救(jiu)為保護國家(jia)財(cai)產而(er)大(da)面(mian)積燒(shao)傷的煉鋼工人邱財(cai)康(kang),終于使他(ta)(ta)轉危(wei)為安的真實、感人的事跡。該劇(ju)是中國第一部電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)直(zhi)(zhi)播(bo)(bo)報道劇(ju),改編自1958年9月3日《人民(min)日報》上的一篇通(tong)訊(xun),從報紙刊出(chu)通(tong)訊(xun)到(dao)電(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)直(zhi)(zhi)播(bo)(bo)劇(ju)播(bo)(bo)出(chu),總共只用了(le)約(yue)30個小時(shi)。
這部電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)單(dan)本(ben)劇雖然(ran)從內容來講與(yu)《一(yi)口菜(cai)餅(bing)(bing)子》一(yi)樣(yang),也是具有鮮(xian)明(ming)的時(shi)代烙(luo)印,而且也是直播(bo)(bo)(bo)形式,但(dan)還是有其自身獨(du)特的意義:首先,與(yu)《一(yi)口菜(cai)餅(bing)(bing)子》不同,這部電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)直播(bo)(bo)(bo)劇動用了(le)(le)兩個演播(bo)(bo)(bo)室、一(yi)段走廊(lang)、三個景(jing)地(di),由三部攝像機拍攝而成;其次,在鏡頭(tou)剪接中(zhong)也運用了(le)(le)實景(jing)與(yu)布(bu)景(jing)的結合(he)(he)。這些(xie)技術上的改進(jin)使其有了(le)(le)較為(wei)鮮(xian)明(ming)的電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)色彩。如果說《一(yi)口菜(cai)餅(bing)(bing)子》尚未擺脫舞臺劇的痕跡的話,那么,《黨救活(huo)了(le)(le)他》從電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)的本(ben)體上進(jin)行了(le)(le)有益(yi)的探索,一(yi)方(fang)(fang)面(mian)在結構布(bu)局、場(chang)景(jing)銜接上都更(geng)符(fu)合(he)(he)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)傳播(bo)(bo)(bo)特性,另一(yi)方(fang)(fang)面(mian)發(fa)揮(hui)了(le)(le)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)傳播(bo)(bo)(bo)迅(xun)速(su)及時(shi)的優勢,兩方(fang)(fang)面(mian)的有機結合(he)(he),大(da)大(da)拓(tuo)展了(le)(le)電(dian)(dian)(dian)(dian)視(shi)(shi)(shi)直播(bo)(bo)(bo)劇的影響力。
