Why is the traditional Xian Xia novel so cool?

Because the dramatic changes in the plot can be said to be unrecognizable. The whole story is completely inconsistent with the contents of the book, and even many plot relationships have been deleted. In this case, readers will naturally feel dissatisfied. Some novels are totally unsuitable for TV adaptation, such as Xian Xia and Xiu Xian. When adapting TV series, many special effects are needed, but the actual situation is not as good as expected. In fact, there are many special effects to be considered in adapting a novel like martial arts. Special effects inevitably require a lot of money. If the investment is not in place, the trip will not go on, the effect will not come out, and no one can see it.

Some writers of novels don't participate in the writing of plots. In other words, after the author's novel is taken over by a professional screenwriter, he doesn't know the original author's creative mentality, so he must modify the screenwriter according to various situations, and there are many external factors. For example, the producer asks for advertising, the director asks for simple scenes, and the investor asks the actors to add a series of unrealistic content.

Frankly speaking, the author sold the copyright and kept it for the staff to change the creation. Once the author is indifferent to his novel story, the consequences will be the worst. The content may be reduced by more than 50%. Therefore, if the author of the novel and the screenwriter are integrated and express the feelings of the protagonist in the content with their own physical feelings, then there is no need to worry about being calmed down.

Some directors take this kind of situation, the purpose is not to create stories, but for the benefit. Maybe the director hasn't read the novel at all, otherwise he won't find some inappropriate actors. Just like the film and television dramas adapted from novels, we all see people who have no acting skills. What they care about is not the story itself, but the size of their interest. Add up multiple cases and the result is obvious. But sometimes the actor's poor performance is mainly due to the director, because the director doesn't need to perform well, just the camera. The benefits outweigh the people's hearts. No wonder this kind of drama will be unpopular.
