Under normal circumstances, TV series adapted from movies rarely surpass the original movie. But the recent broadcast of " Northeast Transitioner " on the online video platform is an exception.
"Transfer Students from the Northeast" was originally a big online movie. When it was first released, it could only be said that it was quite satisfactory. The plot was relatively simple. It was about Wang Hu, a student from Northeast China. , can only transfer to Taiwan. On the first day of school in Taiwan, he inadvertently destroyed the handover ceremony of the three gangs, so he had trouble with the boss of Xinghua Middle School. Later, the two turned enemies into friends and fought against others together. Two school gangs.
After watching the whole film, it gives people the feeling that it is neither funny nor bloody, except for the abrupt Northeast dialect of the male protagonist in the play, there is basically no memory point.
did not expect that such a mediocre Internet movie would be adapted into a 24-episode web drama. And after being adapted into a web drama, I feel that it is more than one grade stronger than the original big movie. The internet score is as high as 7.7 points. It can be said that compared with any youth campus drama of the same theme in recent years, it is not inferior at all.
The online drama "Transfer from the Northeast" has a lot of changes compared to the movie version. First of all, the actors in the play have been replaced except for the actor Wang Hu. Although Wang Hu has not changed the actors, but There have been some changes in the character design. In the movie, Wang Hu is a bad boy on campus like Zhang Wenfeng, the monk and the thin man, and he is a big brother. It was a bad last year, at most it was just a bit naughty, but still very kind-hearted.
Zhang Wenfeng, the second male lead, has also changed a lot. In the movie, Zhang Wenfeng is completely a bully in the school. He usually blocks students at the stairs of the school to collect protection fees. Running out of the classroom to find other campus gangs fighting, such a character, even if he defeated the other two gangs at the end of the film, it still can't make people feel youthful and bloody, just feel that one group of evil forces defeated another group of evil. power. Zhang Wenfeng in the
web drama is obviously much cuter than Zhang Wenfeng in the movie. First of all, Zhang Wenfeng in the web drama is not as aggressive as Zhang Wenfeng in the movie.
Secondly, although Zhang Wenfeng in the online drama is also a poor student, he will not bully other students. On the contrary, he will protect his classmates from being bullied, and his protection is free of charge. Zhang Wenfeng in the last online drama of
studied very poorly, even worse than Wang Hu, but he also has his own pursuits, his own ideals, and has been working hard for his own ideals. This ideal is judo . For such a young man who insists on ideals, it feels very sunny and positive.
In addition to the two male protagonists, two new female characters have been added to the online drama, one is Han Meimei, who has kissed with Wang Hu's doll, and the other is Xinghua's beautiful girl Shen Jiayi. There are some small ambiguities between the male protagonists, but they are all pointed to the point. This is also what this online drama is very commendable. As a youth campus-themed online drama, there is no bloody love scene in the whole drama. At this point, more than 80% of the same type of film and television dramas can be beaten.
In addition, some of the supporting characters in this drama are also very good, such as Wang Hu's father, roommate, squad leader and others, all of which have their own characteristics and their own laughs.
In addition to the actors with excellent acting skills, the plot of this online drama also has a lot to praise. Although this drama is a comedy, there are many plots that make people feel very funny, and even some plots make people feel a little absurd , but in fact behind these funny and absurd, there are some places that make people feel very realistic.
For example, in the last few episodes of the whole drama, the contest between Xinghua middle school classmates and Burgundy middle school classmates makes people feel both funny and sad, Xinghua classmates from ordinary familiesIn the face of Burgundy middle school classmates, they have almost no resistance, and they are completely crushed by the other party in every aspect. No matter how hard they put in, there is no way to shorten the time between the two. The distance has been drawn at that moment.
Finally, in order to punish the cold-blooded classmates of Burgundy Middle School, the screenwriter can only use "mechanical serenity" to forcefully introduce four robbers, so as to show that the students of Xinghua Middle School are the only ones who are better than Burgundy. The strong point of the middle school is that the classmates of Xinghua Middle School are kinder than them. Unfortunately, this kindness does not seem to be an advantage in the eyes of the classmates of Burgundy Middle School. Even after Wang Hu blocked the sword for Jiang Zhishu, None of the men in black at Burgundy Middle School showed a trace of apology.
Although some scenes in the play look a bit absurd, they feel a little real when you think about it carefully. Maybe this is where the drama version of "Transfer Students from Northeast China" is more successful than the movie version.
