martial arts drama, inseparable from a name -
Jin Yong.
The series adapted from his martial arts novels ushered in the golden age of martial arts.
In the early 1980s, Huang Rihua's version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" introduced Jin Yong's drama to the mainland for the first time, causing a huge sensation and becoming the earliest martial arts classic.
This also made many viewers who didn’t know who Jin Yong was start to pay attention to Jin Yong’s martial arts.
In the following decades, Jin Yong's novels have been remade countless times, and many classics have been left behind, such as Ma Jingtao and Ye Tong's version of "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer ". Among them, Yang Xiao, played by Sun Xing, is hailed as the most perfect so far. version of.
In the past few years, the remake of "New Jin Yong Drama" seems to have become synonymous with "bad drama", and martial arts dramas can hardly return to their peak.
Is it possible that traditional martial arts dramas are about to decline?
Perhaps this new drama is the last hope -
" Jin Yong's Martial Arts World " has only aired for 2 episodes and won the first place on the list. The martial arts drama is finally about to achieve a revival.
Brand new adaptation, the story is surprising
It is not difficult to tell from the title that this is another "Jin Yong martial arts drama", but it is not a remake of a classic film and television drama, but a new adaptation of Jin Yong's martial arts novels.
The five units of "Evil in the East and Poison in the West", "Southern Emperor and Northern Beggar", "Huashan Sword Theory", "Nine Yin Manual" and "Iron-Blooded Heart" together constitute "Jin Yong's Martial Arts World". The first unit of
is "Iron-Blooded Heart", which tells the story of Guo Jing (played by Shi Sha), Huang Rong (played by Bao Shang'en) and others, which is the story of the drama version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Unlike the old version, which used a lot of space to lay out the background, "Jin Yong's Martial Arts World" has a very fast pace. The series begins with the Jiangnan Seven Monsters accepting Guo Jing as their apprentice.
The Seven Monsters of Jiangnan recognized Guo Jing as the child of Guo Xiaotian and Li Ping, and accepted Guo Jing as their disciple.
That year, the murderous black winds came to the desert to hunt down the Seven Jiangnan Monsters. Guo Jing accidentally scratched Chen Xuanfeng's hood, causing Chen Xuanfeng's tragic death.
Mei Chaofeng ( Meng Ziyi ) escaped blindly, and the five monsters also died in the battle. After that, Guo Jing followed his masters to practice martial arts.
As soon as the camera turned, Guo Jing grew from a child to a teenager.
He learned from his master that he would go to Jiangnan to compete with his adopted brother Yang Kang (played by Wang Hongyi) when he was eighteen years old. However, Guo Jing has been practicing martial arts hard but has made mediocre progress.
Quanzhen taught Ma Yu to see Guo Jing's problems in martial arts training, and secretly taught Guo Jing to master his mind.
The Seven Monsters of Jiangnan saw Guo Jing's progress and noticed something unusual. When following Guo Jing, they accidentally discovered Mei Chaofeng's traces and misunderstood that Guo Jing was learning martial arts from Mei Chaofeng.
Mei Chaofeng's Nine Yin White Bone Claws were already proficient at this time, and the Jiangnan Seven Monsters were no match at all. Guo Jing, Ma Yu and others joined in to deal with Mei Chaofeng.
Guo Jing took the opportunity to seriously injure Mei Chaofeng with a dagger, and Mei Chaofeng had no choice but to escape.
The Seven Monsters of Jiangnan noticed that Mei Chaofeng was still in the desert, so they made an agreement with Guo Jing to deal with Mei Chaofeng before meeting Guo Jing. Guo Jing said goodbye to his master and went to Jiangnan alone. The story after
must be familiar to everyone.
It is precisely because everyone is so familiar with this story that "Jin Yong's Martial Arts World" brings surprises to the audience far beyond expectations. On the basis of retaining the original famous scenes,
skipped the rest of the story, not only explaining the background of the story clearly, but also creating a fast-paced plot, giving the audience a familiar feeling.
This opening really gave the audience a bit of a "shock".
Young actors play the leading role and support the show.
Before the premiere of "Jin Yong's Martial Arts World", the biggest question in the audience's mind was whether the young actors could hold up their roles.
After all, the characters previously portrayed by actors such as Huang Rihua and Weng Meiling were too classic and difficult to break through.
However, these young actors found a new way to interpret the characters in their own way. In the first few episodes, these performances were impressive.
is the first, this sand.
Yang Jian was "reincarnated" as Guo Jing.
The most popular character before this game was Yang Jian in " Conferred Gods Part 1 ". After being trained by the "Proton Group", there is no need to worry about his fighting scenes.
But what I didn't expect was that his performance was also very superb. In
's new drama, Guo Jing in the early stage is not a hero, but a simple-minded young man. This character's youthfulness and persistence are perfectly interpreted.
Especially the look in his eyes after he is suspected of betraying his master, the grievance is incredible, real and urgent. Not only is the action scene brilliant, but the emotion is also very delicate.
second place, Bao Shang En.
This new-generation little girl is remarkable both in terms of appearance and acting skills.
Her few scenes in " Saves Suspect " are unforgettable, and many people are looking forward to her explosion in the work.
In the new drama, Bao Shang'en takes on the role of Huang Rong. She is pretty and smart, with a pair of smart eyes and a bit of cunning in her eyes. She is exactly like the unfettered wild girl in Jin Yong's works.
Bao Shang En is surprisingly suitable for this role.
The third place is Mencius.
Maybe Huang Wenhui's version of Mei Chaofeng is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In the audience's impression, Mei Chaofeng should have the same image as the "devil".
But the adjective for Mei Chaofeng in the original work is "beautiful".
Meng Ziyi’s image fits the role very well. With her long flying hair and sharp eyes, she looks like a witch coming out of a book. Her brand new image has a huge impact on the audience.
Meng Ziyi didn't have many scenes in the first few episodes, so I look forward to her explosion later.
In addition to the actors who have already appeared, other actors are also worth looking forward to.
For example, Zhou Yiwei and play Huang Yaoshi. I wonder how he will interpret this humiliating and burden-bearing role.
For another example, Ouyang Feng, played by Gao Weiguang , fits the character very well, but it depends on his acting skills.
In addition, many actors and new generation actors such as Mingdao , Wang Jinsong, Chen Duling , Hanikezi also joined the play.
The acting skills of this drama cannot be compromised. It just depends on whether these actors can reshape their characters and give the audience a different feeling. Let's look forward to it.
Conclusion:
Can "Jin Yong's Martial Arts World" regain the glory of martial arts dramas in the past?
Judging from the episodes broadcast, the possibility is not low. The focus of the
series is on the world of Ruyi's grudges. Those familiar "old stories" are interpreted in a new way, with both highlights and familiarity.
The actors' acting skills are excellent and they can hold up their roles. This drama is basically a success.
But the show’s potential problems cannot be ignored.
Five directors join to co-direct the same drama. The differences in understanding of the original works and the styles when creating the works may affect the quality of the drama.
and other plots are updated to the next unit. I wonder if the series will change as the director's style changes.
Next, it depends on whether the follow-up story of "Jin Yong's Martial Arts World" can maintain the standard.
So, do you think the stories in the first few episodes are good?
