Chapter 431 Martial Arts History
Early March.
Jinwan Hotel, Fangzhu City, "The Great Hero" held a press conference and start-up ceremony for the new drama.
This new drama was agreed to by Deng Zheng when Mu Yinger jumped from Hanhai Entertainment to join the "Great Hero". But because I was too busy before the year and there were too many unexpected things after the year, it has been delayed until now, and the preparations have finally been completed.
The name of the new drama is "The History of Martial Arts".
Yes, the original novel of the play is "The History of Martial Arts", one of Mr. Gu Long's "Four Famous Novels of the Middle Period".
In Deng Zheng's view, this is a particularly interesting work of Gu Daxia, a transformation work sandwiched between the early and late stages.
In the early stage, most of the ancient dragons followed the old road, and the level was slightly immature, although the later works became everyone's school, but the style has also been stereotyped.
Stylistic stereotypes are often not only a sign of a writer's maturity, but also the beginning of his typology and decline, because he has to repeat himself again and again.
Therefore, the works in the transition period are often the most rare and worthy of study and reading by a writer.
Specific to the book "The History of Martial Arts", to be honest, there are many shortcomings: the text and skills are relatively simple and crude, the characters and clues are complicated, and the first half and the second half of the book are seriously different......
But aside from these literary things, in terms of specific core, character building, and spirit, it is already a piece of excellent jade.
We can not only see the germination of Gu Long's unique style in the later period, but also the lack of life and tactful connection after the typology of later works. The story is also relatively complete.
The male protagonist has not yet reached the top of the style, but he is a little green and real, and the red-faced beauties are much more lively and cute. Whether it is Zhu Qiqi's willfulness, Bai Feifei's ruthlessness, Panda'er's boldness, Wang Lianhua's wilting, and Chai Yuguan's heroism, they are all written in three points - more importantly. Shen Lang and Jin Wuwang, Panda Er and others are heart-to-heart, and the man is righteous. It's as old as a fossil, but it's precious.
And also. "Walk this way, go that way, just looking for flowers and willows. Walk that way, go this way, and drink the golden bottle of wine. ”
The wanton prodigal energy of the late Gu Long is already there!
As a martial arts novel, this book is not in Deng Zheng's fifteen classic long story plans, but as a martial arts drama, it must not be missed, because it is one of the few works of Gu Daxia that is more suitable for making a TV series!
There are several versions of the TV series in the previous life, and the most influential is the Huang Haibing version. But at the same time, it is also the most controversial.
It is precisely because of this influential TV series. caused the most serious and chaotic tearing war in the history of martial arts dramas - the dispute between Bai Feifei and Zhu Qiqi, from the TV series to the original work, the supporters of both sides occupy each other's top of the mountain and do not give in to each other, which is even more exaggerated than the dispute between Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo in "Yitian", it is simply incompatible, and gods and ghosts do not coexist!
Deng Zheng's cousin, who was still in middle school at the time, quarreled first because one supported Bai and the other liked Zhu. I fought several more times, and then I simply cried "no relatives"!
The reason for this is because of the problem of the director and screenwriter.
First of all, the male protagonist Shen Lang has nothing to say. As one of Gu Long's most perfect characters, he is wise and chivalrous, handsome and chivalrous. Affectionate and considerate. is a young man who always has a smile on the corner of his mouth and is lightly dressed. When he was young, his family lost his wealth due to great changes. The young man became famous all over the world in the first war, and later brought his friends overseas. At a young age, he is already a legend of the generation of rivers and lakes, and a winner in real life.
This role is more in line with the original work, and the actor Huang Haibing is almost impeccable in terms of image temperament and acting skills.
The key is Zhu Qiqi and Bai Feifei.
Let's talk about the original work first, Zhu Qiqi is the woman in Mr. Gu Long's pen, and it is also the female character who has the most ink in all his works.
She appeared amazingly, a fragrant car BMW, escorted by eight horses, proudly like a princess on the clouds, shocking the audience, and she was a first-class role beauty. Bright and pure, with a warm aura.
In the words of a netizen, it is: "A rich girl with a special background and a special experience, the uniqueness of her personality lies in sincerity and not without bias, beauty but lack of real intelligence, enthusiasm and easy to go crazy." She is a beautiful lady, but she is a jealous woman in a narrow-minded love. She is an angel who does bad things, a delicate witch in a chivalrous cluster. ”
It can be said that Zhu Qiqi is a collection of the purest beauty and disgusting shortcomings, so some readers see a passionate and frank, brave and lovely seven girls, some readers see a little woman who is bold for love and has no regrets, and some readers see a brainless, noisy and troublesome Miss Seven.
But no matter how controversial it is, whether we like it or not, the girl Zhu Qiqi in the original book, we at least feel very cordial when we read it.
Because to put it bluntly, she is a relatively normal little girl who is crazy about love - she likes a person, and she is willing to follow him to wander at the ends of the world. In her heart, the word "husband" is the beginning of "heaven", and he is bigger than the sky. You want to play tricks in front of him, but he smiles and sees through it, and even sometimes, you will pull out the panda in your life and want to make that person jealous, but when he appears in front of you, he is not moved at all, and you are flustered again, and you can't wait to run into his arms in the next moment......
Pretty but tricky, smart and silly, simple and changeable, stingy and righteous...... Every smile and smile looks flesh and blood, breathing the breath of the world.
And Bai Feifei, a woman, Deng Zheng likes to call "Bai Ye".
In terms of shocking the world, on daring to love and hate, in a sense, the white-haired witch practicing neon clothes is not at the same level as her.
This woman, who has lived for hatred all her life, in order to complete the plan of revenge on her father's big devil "Happy King" who made him miserable for life, actually tried every means to marry her own father, the key is that she really did it, and it also made the "Happy King" who didn't know the truth a little sincere......
Before officially marrying the "Happy King", he decisively pushed Shen Lang down with drugs, imprisoned him under the ancient city, and "carnivaled" for seven days and seven nights, just to have a child of Shen Lang......
What he did was printed with a sentence that is now very popular: Why don't you even dare to rape, are you embarrassed to say that you love him?!
This kid later became Ah Fei in "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword".
Ah Fei saved Li Xunhuan, he said that it was to repay the favor, and his mother told him since he was a child that he couldn't owe anyone.
In the ending of the novel "The History of Martial Arts", Bai Feifei insisted on giving her her her water to drink despite Wang Lianhua's ridicule and cold opposition in the desert, and the grace of dripping water was reciprocated, so she fulfilled Zhu Qiqi and Shen Lang, drifted away, and also informed Jin Wuwang to save them, and also made her and Shen Lang have a husband and wife A hidden past. I don't know if this is called principled, but it is admirable.
In short, people like Bai Feifei are not ordinary women, they can't be loved or hated, and they will only be afraid or admired by her all the time.
Whether she is cruel or vicious, her existence obscures the innocence and naivety of a little girl on Zhu Qiqi's body, which makes people believe and understand that even in a hero like Shen Lang, she can play with it.
She said that she would come, and she would go, she was a creature whose emotional intelligence was several streets away from men, high up and made people look up.
Anyway, Deng Zheng has been studying for so many years, and he has been obsessed with his sweetheart for seven days and seven nights, and then he went to marry his own father, such a bull fork woman has never seen a second one!
In the original book, Shen Lang's friend Jin Wuwang said: Zhu Qiqi is strong on the outside, but he is extremely fragile on the inside; Bai Feifei looks extremely weak, but he is stronger than anyone else.
Therefore, purely from the perspective of the novel, there is basically no dispute between Zhu and Bai, Zhu Qiqi is the undisputed heroine, and Bai Feifei has never existed as a normal woman or confidante by Shen Lang's side! She is a cruel and ruthless Netherworld Palace master who is bent on revenge! She is Shen Lang's opponent at a level of wisdom and force in the true sense!
If you really want to calculate it carefully, there are not too many scenes overall.
So the problem lies with the TV drama director and screenwriter.
In fact, the starting point of the screenwriter is understandable, he wants to suppress Zhu Qiqi and elevate Bai Feifei on the emotional line, so as to form a balanced trend and make the whole drama more tense and dramatic.
So he made Shen Lang not only fall in love with Bai Feifei at first sight, but also the love between the two was very moving. Shen Lang betrayed their oath in order to keep Bai Feifei alive and let Bai Feifei get the antidote. And then Shen Lang also cracked the poison on his body by chance. But at this time, because Bai Feifei's adoptive mother said that Shen Lang was greedy for life and afraid of death, she betrayed Bai Feifei. And Shen Lang did not explain after the two met again, this process was relatively rationalized Bai Feifei's final blackening.
On the other hand, Zhu Qiqi, who was suppressed in the early stage, has never had the shine of the heroine, and his character has been adapted to be too rude and stupid, thinking that his father was killed by Shen Lang, and he did everything possible to harm Shen Lang. In the later stage, in order to make the ending closer to the original book, Shen Lang, who should have been deeply hurt, fell in love with Zhu Qiqi inexplicably. Zhu Qiqi suddenly changed from the original partner to the 'little three'. Fortunately, a lot of effort was put into whitewashing, and overall it was okay.
Judging from the first two-thirds of the script, although it is quite different from the original book, it can barely achieve the purpose of balance.
It's just that he didn't take into account the actor's appearance and fit!
Zhang Yanyan is actually quite beautiful, but her appearance is dignified and mature, and it is indeed too difficult to play the top beauty Zhu Qiqi, who is as bright as fire, and the one who plays Bai Feifei over there is Wang Yan, who is at the peak of her appearance and temperament.
Originally, Zhu Qiqi was known as an invincible troublemaker, and a series of troubles were almost all caused by her, but relying on the two magic weapons of beauty and infatuation, she was generally quite pleasing. This is on TV, the beauty is not very good, and the "little three" has no infatuation rights, and the two life-saving magic weapons are gone, so they are almost completely annoying...... The congenital hard injury is too big, and it is futile to try to wash it in the later stage.
Let's go back and talk about Bai Feifei, in the end, in order to get closer to the original work, the screenwriter finally began to blacken Bai Feifei, and the blackening was just blackened, not to mention the crying father and calling his mother to find death and life, and he was still very childish and took a knife to pull Zhu Qiqi's face, and even more stabbed her in the chest...... Is this still pushing Shen Lang to marry his father, brushing off his clothes, and hiding his merits and fame? !
Therefore, the reshaping of the two women by the director and screenwriter of this drama is completely more annoying than whom, and who has more black spots! )
