The Legend of Flying Fox and The Story of Tang Dynasty are the two most popular costume dramas recently, one is Jin Yong's martial arts masterpiece, and the other is a suspense detective drama. It can be said that each has its own characteristics, but put the two together , the difference is very obvious.
From the plot point of view, Tang Dynasty Weird Story is obviously more advantageous. The
Flying Fox rumor is of course wonderful, but the works of Jin Yong and have been popular for decades after all. All the plots and burdens are well known to the audience, and there is no sense of secrecy. The screenwriter of Feihu Gaiden is also not very clever. Not only has the original work changed beyond recognition, but also the details are full of mistakes and omissions. It is difficult to convince the majority of Jin Yong fans.
For example, the plot of Miao Renfeng selling vegetables can be called the biggest failure of the whole drama. Lin Shen's version of Miao Renfeng, I don't know why, as a Qing Dynasty knight, he actually combed a Ming Dynasty hair accessory, and went to the vegetable market to sell vegetables in a big way, fighting the invincible golden-faced Buddha all over the world When did you fall into this situation.
Tang Dynasty Weird Stories is different. The novel detective story, Zhonglang, who is full of force, will join hands with the witty disciples of Di Gong, who will jointly uncover the secrets. It is exciting and interesting. The road is exquisite, and the details are meticulous.
is also more attractive in terms of shaping the protagonist's character. The Hu Fei in the
Flying Fox Story is generous and heroic in the original work, free and easy, witty and humorous, and is a very charismatic hero. But the screenwriter changed him into a stupid ordinary person, with no shining point in his body, and martial arts is also ordinary, it is difficult for the audience to feel his superior quality and bring it into it. The two heroines of
are even more disappointing. Yuan Ziyi changed from smart and hearty to taciturn, Cheng Lingsu changed from witty to Xiaojiabiyu, and the charm value was greatly reduced.
Tang Dynasty Weird Stories is different. When the protagonist Lu Lingfeng first appeared, he was arrogant and stubborn, but he did not lose his chivalrous spirit. In the face of setbacks, he can bend and stretch, and gradually become reasonable in the investigation of the case again and again, and the defects in character can be made up. The protagonist is constantly growing. Although his martial arts is not as invincible as Li Yuanfang , it is also a temporary choice. It is very enjoyable to watch the battles of wits and courage with the bad guys again and again.
In terms of the rhythm of the story, it is still better than the Tang Dynasty Weird Stories.
's adaptation of The Legend of Flying Fox is too grumpy. A novel with family and country feelings has turned into a popular TV series about love and love. The screenwriter is not enough, and keeps creating conflicts between the hero and heroine. For example, Hu Fei wrote to Yuan Ziyi, hoping to meet outside the city and explain the misunderstanding. However, the screenwriter had to go through twists and turns, first making Hu Fei wait, and then letting Yuan Ziyi's silly junior sister go back and forth to report back and forth, and also persuade Yuan Ziyi how to accept the other party's kindness. Yuan Ziyi fought Muyu once, and finally went to see Hu Fei under the persuasion of her master. A play that can be explained in a few minutes, but it was delayed for more than ten minutes, but there is not much substantive content displayed.
Tang Dynasty Weird Stories is very different, the rhythm is fast enough to fly. Flying Fox Biography can be viewed at twice the speed without delaying understanding the plot. However, the Tang Dynasty Weird Story cannot be accelerated, the amount of information is too large, and there will be no unnecessary branches where it can be saved. For example, the beggar in the stone bridge pattern provides a detail that it is a monk who killed Lu Gongfu. Lu Lingfeng immediately investigated the monks who had contacts with Lu Gongfu, and as a result, the suspicion of the monks was ruled out through oral transmission. The plot is dense but not complicated, so that the audience will not feel bored after watching it.
Of course, although the new version of Flying Fox has many shortcomings, it is not a bad drama. The performance of several secondary characters is remarkable. Although the plot has many inconsistent and inconsistent logics, as a web drama, there is nothing to be picky about. Overall, it's pretty decent. But compared with the Tang Dynasty Weird Stories, it is undoubtedly a lot worse. If the new version of Flying Fox can achieve a score of 6.7, then Tang Dynasty Weird Stories can achieve at least a score of 7.6.
