In the fall of 2014, after watching director Xu Anhua, director Guan Jinpeng was deeply impressed by Yuan Wenkang, who starred in Tang Wei’s first love "Wang Enjia", because this role has been rarely mentioned in history, but Yuan Wenkang performed a commendable style. "After watching it, Director Guan was very approving of my performance, and then he asked me to meet. Director Guan, Director Luo, the screenwriter and I chatted all night in Beijing." Guan Jinpeng told Yuan Wenkang that the character "Thomas" that invited him to play this time was very similar to Xu Anhua’s role as Ah San played by Luo Lie in that year, and Yuan Wenkang watched the movie that night and read the script, and then agreed to star in "New York New York".
The film New York New York tells a tale of two cities in Shanghai and New York against the backdrop of the 1990s overseas boom. At that time, young people were eager to change their lives and wanted to go out, which led to all kinds of love and hatred. The film has a strong behind-the-scenes cast. Not only is Guan Jinpeng the producer in charge of the film, but also Zhang Shuping, the royal art director of Wong Kar Wai, has been invited to join to recreate the glamorous atmosphere of Shanghai in the late 1990s.
As a native of Shanghai, Yuan Wenkang has deep memories of those days. "At that time, many people thought that foreign countries were paradise, and they all wanted to go out and go overseas. Most of them went overseas with simple ideas." In fact, he said that many friends around him now also mention immigration. "But I think no matter where you go, the fallen leaves always return to their roots. No matter how good the outside world is, you may eventually return to your hometown. This is the relationship between people and land. It is fundamental. If people want to live a better life, they still have to change through their own efforts."
Yuan Wenkang calls "Thomas" an adventurer who regains a sense of the Shanghai era by playing against the cuckoo

In Yuan Wenkang’s opinion, Thomas can be called an "adventurer". "His purpose is very simple. He has a vision for a better life, is impulsive, and will move forward tirelessly. He is a positive person. Such a person is inspiring. He will be the first to take the lead in eating crabs. He is full of adventurous spirit, knows how to have fun in time, and knows how to get through danger. Only such a person can go to the outside world and take root."
On the first day of filming, Yuan Wenkang played opposite the heroine Du Juan, "At that time, it reminded me of those early films of Wong Kar-wai, which were also stories from the 1990s. Zhang Shuping was also the art director, so I could feel that this was a very textured film. Director Luo Dong was very familiar with that era, and Director Guan had filmed" ", so the whole team felt very good about shooting."
In "New York New York", Yuan Wenkang, Ruan Jingtian and Du Juan are collaborating for the first time. "Xiaotian is very hard-working and dedicated, and we will also take the initiative to chat and get to know each other outside the play, because we have been friends for many years in the play, so we can’t have too many strange feelings. When filming in New York, we go out to eat together every day." Although Du Juan and Yuan Wenkang have never filmed, they have known each other before, and they are both Shanghainese people. They are relatively familiar with each other, and Yuan Wenkang is also full of praise for her: "Du Juan retains the temperament of a Shanghai woman, and it is very well preserved. I have been in Beijing for many years, and the temperament of a Shanghainese person is much less, so I have been speaking Shanghainese with her, and it is also to better retrieve the sense of the era of the characters What did Xiao Tian do when the two spoke Shanghainese? "He would listen next to him, because Director Guan wanted Xiao Tian to speak Shanghainese as much as possible in the film, so he also practiced very hard and learned with us to cultivate the context of Shanghainese."
