Jin Yong's dramas have always been highly prolific, and they are remade almost every year, but they have never changed the fate of classics that are difficult to copy. Recently, several new versions, Zhang Yishan version of "The Deer and Ding Ji", Zhong Hanliang version of "Tianlong Babu" are all very popular and not applauded. , The word of mouth is sluggish to the bottom, including the new version of "Flying Fox Story" that is currently on the air. Although it is directed by Lian Yiming, Qin Junjie, Liang Jie, Xing Fei, Lin Yushen, and He Rundong are starring. It still failed to reverse the trend, and many martial arts fans expressed that they were speechless after watching it.
The cast is good and the image is excellent, so why is the final result of "Flying Fox Story" not satisfactory? After watching a few episodes, I found that it is still an old problem, and I can't lose it in the adaptation. What should be changed is not changed, there are basically no plots that can further make the characters fuller. The teenager Hu Fei did not fight with strange fists Shang Baozhen , but he was struggling with the small character Yan Ji, and the ruthlessness was there, which was not logical. The character of the card is not reflected. At the same time, the previous generation's grievances and grievances were explained too much, which made his hatred for Miao Renfeng seem mindless;
changed things that should not be changed, so Yuan Ziyi made an early appearance and made a scene in Foshan with Hu Fei. The original sense of mystery is gone, and the love story is no longer melancholy and ethereal, but has a plastic taste of ancient puppet dramas.
Looking at the first ten episodes, the biggest failure is not these, but the chapter on the fire in the Iron Hall of the Merchant Fort. The original absolute protagonist, the third master of the Honghua Club, Zhao Banshan did not appear in the play at all. The phoenix took its place.
Anyone who has read the novel or the previous film and television version probably knows that this story is very exciting, the group drama scheduling of various people, the suspense of the story of the crisis-ridden Jedi counterattack, and although Hu Fei is young, he insists on chivalry in the midst of martial arts grievances and disputes. He did not bow his head to the strong, but stood up several times to fight against the Wang brothers, who were masters in the big inner circle.
The new version of "Flying Fox in Snow Mountain" has changed the wonderful places of Hu Fei, and completely cut off the most charming Honghuahui in this story, Thousand Arms Tathagata Zhao Banshan.
Zhao Banshan is a master of Tai Chi of the Southern School. Because Chen Yu of the Northern School of
murdered his fellow disciples, he was entrusted by Sun Gangfeng, who had only one side. The chivalrous act is very pleasing to the hearts of the people, and the informal but black-and-white demeanor has also affected Hu Fei's life.
But in the TV series, this section was completely cut off and replaced by Miao Renfeng who only plays handsome.
In terms of martial arts, of course, Miao Renfeng is higher and stronger, and his status in the rivers and lakes is far better than that of Zhao Banshan, but in terms of heroism and personality charm, the latter is actually more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Kung fu, optimistic and open-minded character, coupled with a whole body of chivalrous courage, make Zhao Banshan one of the most popular characters in "The Book and Sword" and "Flying Fox". Compared with
, Miao Renfeng is actually relatively flat. Except for the life and death feud between Hu Yidao and Tian Guinong , he spends more time solving problems with martial arts alone, and his character description is lackluster.
Therefore, the new version of "Fox Legend" weakens Zhao Banshan's role and greatly increases Miao Renfeng's role. It can be said to be an obvious failure. Innovation is to make up for one's shortcomings. The original work is already exciting enough, and the plot can be increased or decreased, but the basic framework is best not to change, why bother to be clever.
