"A Dream of Red Mansions" TV series, there are two versions, 87 version and new version. In these two editions, the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was honoured as a god and pushed to a peak position, and the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was broadcast to prove once again that the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is classic and unshakable. No matter from clothing, makeup, modeling, actors, props, music, the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" has been dumped by the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" more than two streets.
After a TV series is broadcast, it will be like the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions", receiving side-to-side negative reviews and complaints, and the audience can hardly find any reason and motivation to watch it. The most criticized is the "copper wire head" of the actors, followed by music. Compared with the 87 version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" composed by Wang Liping and those songs sung by Chen Li, the new version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" is far behind.
87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" music is well-known to everybody, and every child knows how much beauty and reverie the song "Vaning Eyebrows" brings us. After studying the original work with great concentration, Wang Liping, after careful selection of words and repeated scrutiny, did not use any ready-made materials, purely based on the content of "A Dream of Red Mansions" itself, and used a brand new musical language that only belongs to "Dream of Red Mansions" that people can understand today. It took four and a half years to create songs such as "Vaning Eyebrows", "Buried Flower Yin", "Red Bean Song", "Autumn Window and Wind and Rain", all of which can be called classics handed down. The singer Chen Li has a clear and clean voice. Just like the sound of nature.
The music of the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" takes "sorrow" as the core, and uses the sound tone of "sect" as the background. With the development of the plot, there will be heavy string music from time to time Bass, sharp and discordant sound, sometimes resentful, dreamlike, Kunqu opera sound, like shadows, but also far away, sometimes there will be percussion rendering, making people feel distressed and even creepy.
Many viewers said that watching the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions", the soundtrack looks a little weird. The tunes are high and low, and the time is slow. The girls in the Grand View Garden float in the gloomy setting and the sound of the music. Floating away, I found the feeling of watching "Liao Zhai".
A "Dream of Red Mansions" has become a "contribution" to the music of "Liao Zhai". All the music in the new version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" was made for "A Dream of Red Mansions", but not "A Dream of Red Mansions". Why do you say that?
First, this is related to a slogan of the new version of "A Dream of Red Mansions".
When the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was prepared, the crew put forward a slogan, "Art is subjective". This slogan misled all the chief creators of the crew and also misled the producers.
was originally correct. The creation of art should indeed be subjective. However, the crew changed the concept of the slogan and changed the slogan "art is subjective". This subjectivity was replaced by oneself instead of Cao Xueqin.
Do you know that "A Dream of Red Mansions" is Cao Xueqin's. In the process of creation, it should be adapted, designed, and photographed according to Cao Xueqin's wishes. We should deeply respect, understand and study "Dream of Red Mansions" to understand Cao's spirit.
Just like Wang Fulin, the director of the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions", before the filming started, he made a request to the leaders of CCTV, that is, to give him a year to read "A Dream of Red Mansions". "No work will be arranged during this period. When filming, Wang Fulin was also trembling, walking on thin ice, not daring to change the original work without authorization. In Director Wang's consciousness, if he could shoot according to the spirit of the original work, it would be very good. Where would he dare to change it at will? This is the true spirit of everyone.
However, the new version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" turned the subjective subject into themselves. This slogan gave them new courage and strength, and gave them courage to abandon Cao Xueqin and deviate from the original. Since this subject is no longer "Dream of Red Mansions" and not Cao Xueqin, even though it is called "Dream of Red Mansions", it is actually a far cry from Cao Gong's "Dream of Red Mansions".
Secondly, costume design "not returnThe original "Dream of Red Mansions".
Under the influence of the slogan "Art is subjective", the ignorant crew of the new version of Red Mansions are fearless. When designing the costumes, they once again put forward a ridiculous slogan "Do not restore" "Dream of Red Mansions"".
What a stupid slogan, what a self-contained design. The filming of "Dream of Red Mansions", but the costume design does not restore "Dream of Red Mansions", is it possible to restore "Dream of Brothel"? The Red Mansions crew did a great job. From the beginning of the costume design to the makeup styling, to the character characteristics of the actors, all "Dream of Red Mansions" are no longer restored, and our audience does not have the feeling of watching "Dream of Red Mansions".
"do not restore "Dream of Red Mansions" began with costume design. In fact, from the very beginning, it has become the guiding ideology of the new version of Red Mansions. Under the guidance of this ideology, it is inevitable that music will not restore "Dream of Red Mansions". How can the "Dream of Red Mansions" feel like a "Dream of Red Mansions"?
Third, the new version of Red Mansions establishes an imaginary enemy, and this imaginary enemy makes the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions".
The new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" The imaginary enemy set up is the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions." So, from the script, story, actors, and service to the grasp of the overall tone, the new red "Dream of Red Mansions" will oppose all those supported by the 1987 "Dream of Red Mansions". Music is no exception.
takes its essence and removes its dross. I believe this is known to all of us, but the crew of the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" did not understand it. The 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was indeed ruined when it was first broadcast. It’s a bit of a half, and it has received some criticisms and doubts. Time will prove everything. When the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was prepared, it has been more than 20 years since the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was broadcast.
The evaluation at this time is fair enough and objective. The 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is successful, classic, and beautiful, whether it's actors, costumes, makeup, or The props and music have all been highly praised and appreciated by everyone. So, from the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions", it is the most labor-saving and convenient shortcut to the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions".
But the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" "Give up, I don’t know if the crew is too smart or too stupid. Anyway, as long as the 87 version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" supports it, it is all opposed.
Fourth, the music of the new version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" must be in line with the new version. "Dream of Red Mansions" are synchronized.
It is not difficult to understand why the music of the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" will look like this. Because the new version of music must be synchronized with the new version.
Since the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" Subjective is creative, since the new version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" should be restored "Dream of Red Mansions", since the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" has to be separated from the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions", then the music of the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" must be different and unique.
When the 89 film version of "Dream of Red Mansions" could use Kunqu, then why don't we use Kunqu? Therefore, there is no need to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no time and effort. In this way, there are some chromatic, atonal tones, lamenting Kunqu opera, sharp, tense, unknown, and erratic music throughout the TV series. The back of the audience is chilly.
The new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was launched strongly amidst doubts, and ended sadly amidst stronger doubts. The new version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" is the same as the original film version of "A Dream of Red Mansions", which is to prove the classic and greatness of the 87 version of "A Dream of Red Mansions". After these two editions of "Dream of Red Mansions", the 87 edition of "Dream of Red Mansions" has become like a big mountain, and later generations dare not easily reach it.
