's new version of "Half Life", renamed "The Origin of Love", was broadcast recently.
This TV series starring Carina Lau and Jiang Xin, which was supposed to be broadcast on the stars, became a webcast. After the broadcast of
, netizens made complaints.
"The Origin of Love" is adapted from Zhang Ailing's novel "Half Life". The earliest adaptation of
was the movie version "Half Life" released in 1997.
sister Gu Manlu (played by Mei Yanfang at 34), for her family's livelihood, worked as a dancer in Shanghai. After she got older, she married Zhu Hongcai (played by Ge You), a frequent guest.
sister Gu Manzhen (played by Wu Qianlian at the age of 29) and Shen Shijun (played by Liming) from a good family background are a pair of sweet lovers.
With the development of things, my sister Gu Manlu gradually darkened.
pretended to be sick and designed a trap, so that Zhu Hongcai ruined his sister's innocence and imprisoned her. The redesign of
told Shen Shijun that his younger sister Gu Manzhen was already married, and Shen Shijun's thoughts were lost.
Finally, Gu Manzhen was sent to the hospital due to dystocia. With the help of his patients, Manzhen, who was imprisoned for one year, finally regained his freedom.
She worked hard to find Shijun, but learned that Shijun was married.
Many years later, Gu Manzhen and Shen Shijun met again. Gu Manzhen slowly said: "Shijun, we can't go back." At that time,
touched many people's hearts.
For some people, the momentary difference may be forever!
The actors of this play back then were not only age-matched, but temperament also met the original play.
Anita Mui performed amorous feelings, and Wu Qianlian performed art. Not only the protagonist, but also supporting roles, such as Huang Lei who played Shuhui, were well received.
Recently, Carina Lau and Jiang Xin starred in the new version of "Half Life", but it has been greatly questioned.
First of all, the audience generally questioned the inappropriate casting.
one pretends to be a style, the other pretends to be weak, the actor has not played a role that really suits him.
Gu Manlu, in order to support her family, fell into the dust, and was bullied everywhere in the early stage of his glamorous style, becoming humble, insidious and perverted.
And now Carina Lau is somewhat incompatible with the original role.
First of all, the image violates. Carina Lau took over the role of Gu Manlu when she was in her 50s. She sang with the double ponytails of her school days. Her age and image were too contradictory.
In fact, when she was young, Carina Lau should be very suitable for this role, bright and moving.
But at the age of 57 years old, pretending to be a student, the sense of violation is too strong.
Second, the aura violated.
Audiences say that Carina Lau does not look like a poor dancer who is being bullied and dependent on a man for survival, but is a "big sister" who can dominate Shanghai.
In the previous TV series version, the older sister Gu Manlu was played by Jiang Qinqin, and she performed the style and charm of a dancing girl.
sister Gu Manzhen, a girl in her early 20s, is simple, quiet and weak in the early stage, and strong, kind and stubborn in the later stage.
and Jiang Xin's version of "Gu Manzhen" because of its robust appearance.
was ruthlessly complained by netizens: "The strongest Manzhen in history", and joked that one person Gu Manzhen can single out ten Zhu Hongcai.
The previous version of the TV series was played by Ruby Lin, who also performed the gentleness of the role.
Next, whether it was the movie version before, It's still a TV series version, the emotional entanglement between the sisters, and the rivalry between each other are also very exciting.
But this version does not have the CP feeling that the performance plot gives the role.
also said: "Jiang Qinqin and Ruby Lin can play the first half of their lives, and Jiang Xin and Carina Lau can play the second half of their lives."
It is said that the artistic director of this show is Qiong Yao's daughter-in-law, He Xiuqiong, who has served as the producer of many Qiong Yao dramas. The
art consultant is Shi Nansheng, a friend of Zhang Ailing and Xu Hark’s ex-wife.
This drama is still visible to the naked eye.
This is another street remake after the new version of "The Deer and Ding Ji". The previous repertoires of
have been continuously remade, but the effect is not satisfactory, because the current audience will not pay for the bad films anymore.
