It is common for old classic dramas to be remade. Jin Yong’s works such as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Swordsman" have been repeatedly adapted for the screen. In my eyes, remakes are It’s not just copying the gourd, a successful remake must be innovative. If everything is the same, you will only feel that it is long and boring.
Huo Jianhua's version of "The Swordsman" should be regarded as a relatively innovative remake. The most interesting thing is that Oriental Invincible has completely become a female character. She is powerful and domineering, and follows the example of Dugu Qiubai. , her martial arts skills are unparalleled, she is as beautiful as a fairy, smart and smart, and fully meets the characteristics of a "witch". In this work, the character of Dongfang Invincible is very fully portrayed. When she was sixteen, her hometown was robbed by bandits. Her parents felt that taking her with them was a burden, so they ruthlessly abandoned her. In order to save her sister Yilin, she led the robbers away by herself. It can be seen that Dongfang Bubai was not a bad person when she was young, and after becoming the leader of the Sun Moon God Sect, she did not do all kinds of evil as in the legend. Instead, she valued love and righteousness, secretly paying attention to her sister Yilin, and treating Linghu Chong is even more affectionate and righteous. Therefore, when the work was on the air, many people expressed that they were completely in love with Dongfang Bubai. They saw too much of the imperial sister in Dongfang Bubai.
Nowadays, she definitely belongs to that kind of domineering leader. Her monthly salary is tens of millions. She loves her little boyfriend very much. She has a sharp mouth and a heart that makes people feel safe just by looking at her. In this era, women are looking for a sense of security, hoping that the person they love will be a hero, with colorful auspicious clouds under their feet. In fact, men are the same. They want their crush to be domineering, smart and capable.
However, it is not easy to be a leader. He is invincible at a high place, and Dongfang Bubai cannot be understood by others. All the righteous people in the plot think that Dongfang Bubai is heinous, but those so-called righteous people always secretly Do some sneaky things. Jin Yong's novels are very sharp. The bad guys are not completely bad. On the contrary, the "good guys" are sanctimonious. For the sake of the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance and to control the power, Zuo Lengchan , Yue Buqun and Lin Pingzhi Others are scheming and framing others, which is the greatest evil. Since ancient times, good and evil have not coexisted, but there will always be a group of people who define what is justice and what is evil. Subsequently, what is supported by most people is justice, and the opposite is evil. This is well reflected in this work.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The rivers and lakes are bloody and bloody, and competition for fame and fortune is inevitable. Dongfang Bubai is also very ambitious. She wants to dominate the world, but after meeting Linghu Chong, she plans to retire. She claimed to be "Dongfang Bai", but when she was discovered to be a daughter, she became "Dongfang Girl". In the process of getting along with Linghu Chong day and night, Dongfang Bubai gradually fell in love with this young hero. Dongfang Bubai and Linghu Chong danced swords under the moonlight in front of flowers. Linghu Chong kept his promise and gave him wine as promised. When Linghu Chong was seriously injured, she used her own inner strength to keep him alive. This love is hidden in her heart, but heaven and earth can learn from it. .
It's just a pity that the two of them still can't be together. There were too many misunderstandings, one did not explain clearly, the other did not trust, and eventually they parted ways. However, Dongfang Bubai still missed this person from the past. She was stabbed by Linghu Chong and said the words "love is severed". Later, she continued to pay attention to Linghu Chong, and even found Yang Lianting who looked exactly like Linghu Chong as a pet. Dongfang Bubai even reluctantly asked Linghu Chong in the end, have you ever loved me?
What did Linghu Chong say? He said, there is an oriental girl living in my heart. Although the expression is vague, the audience can easily understand that Linghu Chong really loves her.
Loving her does not mean that I have loved her. Just because she is a female devil, Linghu Chong morally does not allow himself to be with her anymore, so this love is very sad. Many netizens said that although Ren Yingying is the original wife, she looks like a mistress no matter how you look at it. .After all, the world is always mixed with helplessness. Some people really love each other, but they are always defeated by reality. What about the third party? Reality is the biggest third party. Perhaps not being able to love is the fate of Dongfang Bubai.
In this work, director Yu Zheng maximizes love, allowing us to see a Dongfang Bubai who devotes himself wholeheartedly to love. Dongfang Bubai finally realized that it was completely impossible for him and Linghu Chong, so he chose to let go and fulfill his wish. But this fulfillment cost his own life. Ren Yingying was poisoned by the Sanzhi Naoshen Pill, and only changing her heart could cure the poison, so she decisively chose to exchange her heart for Ren Yingying. Sure enough, the humble person in love will never get a good ending.
The final ending is unsatisfactory, which makes people reflect that this kind of love that is completely disregarded is not rare in the world, but many times, we do not discover it in time. If Linghu Chong and Dongfang Bubai can put all issues on the table and talk it over clearly, and if Dongfang Bubai is not so impulsive in doing things, the two of them will definitely get together. But how can there be so many ifs in the world? In the real world, we are always like children who have not grown up. We are obsessed with our own emotions and never listen carefully to the hearts of others. This also leads to the growing distance between ourselves and the people around us.
In those green years, maybe there was an Oriental girl by your side. She did many things for you in private, but she never mentioned it. Those warm enough gestures were completely turned into a quarrel between the two of them. Nothing, unfortunately, until you finish this life, you will never know how much she has paid for you.
I have to say that Chen Qiaoen has a strong ability to control roles. He often played the role of a young beautiful girl in the past, and he is also comfortable playing the tender and domineering Dongfang Invincible. She is nimble when she should be nimble, vicious when she should be ruthless, yet chic and affectionate at the same time. Not to mention Huo Jianhua, he obviously has a "righteous face", so if he plays the role of a young hero like Linghu Chong, he can do it very well. And when shaping the character, that special naughty flavor is very much like Li Yashou in "Bujuro".
There are also many people who are not optimistic about this drama. They feel that portraying Dongfang Invincible as a female character is completely nonsense and completely disrespectful to Mr. Jin Yong. I think this is a sign of great respect for Jin Yong. Jin Yong's novels focus on reflecting the love and hate in the Jianghu. Through the story lines of Dongfang Bubai and Linghu Chong, we can fully feel the bloody storms in the Jianghu and the firm stance of the people in the Jianghu. Those things where love and hate are entangled and involuntarily are the true nature of Jianghu. Big shots in the world, they can always keep everything in order, but they always fall in love!
