"Flying snow shoots white deer in the sky, and the laughing book god hero leans on the bi duck", among the 15 martial arts novels written by Mr. Jin Yong, "Chivalrous Travel" is a relatively unpopular one. But the cold does not mean that it is not good, although "Chivalrous" does not have a clear background of the times, there is no grand scene, and writing love is only a flash in the pan, but the exploration of the jianghu and life in this work makes it achieve a very high achievement both in the artistic level and philosophy.
In "Chivalrous Journey", Mr. Jin Yong created a series of vivid characters, such as Shi Tiantian, who is kind-hearted and chivalrous, Shi Zhongyu, who is timid and cowardly, greedy and afraid of death, and Ding Heng, who is eccentric and has a flexible personality, all of which have left a very deep impression on everyone. But among the many characters in "Chivalrous", there is one character that I fell in love with at the first sight, she is the granddaughter of Bai Zizi, the leader of the Snow Mountain Sect, and Shi Baoba, and bai Axiu, the daughter of Bai Wanjian.
According to the description in the book, Ah Xiu has a beautiful appearance, gentle and kind, Sven and courteous, and is a rare good girl. Because he was teased by Shi Zhongyu, Ah Xiu could not bear to be humiliated and jumped off a cliff to commit suicide, and was later rescued by his grandmother Shi Xiaocui. Later, Ah Xiu met Shi Shaotian, and the two fell in love at first sight, and also achieved a beautiful marriage. In addition, another obvious feature of Ah Xiu is that it loves to cry, whether it is sad, anxious or afraid, it will not help but cry, which makes people suddenly feel love and pity.
Because it is relatively unpopular among the 15 novels, the number of TV series remakes of "Chivalrous" is not much, only four times in total. So, how do the various versions of the actors interpret this woman like white moonlight?
The first drama version of "Chivalrous Travel" was broadcast in 1985 and was produced by Taiwan Province of China, starring Mo Shaocong, Zhao Yongxin, Zhao Jiarong, Zhou Xiaoyun and Zhang Fujian, and Zhao Jiarong as Ah Xiu.
Because of the long broadcast age, coupled with the sparse picture quality and simple scenes, there are not many viewers who have seen this version of "Chivalrous". Ah Xiu, played by Zhao Jiarong, is generally decent, and there are no highlights, but the most difficult to accept is that Ah Xiu's distinction between Shi Shaotian and Shi Zhongyu actually relies on the scars on his body, which really makes Ah Xiu's beautiful image of Ice and Snow being smart and communicating with Shi Shaotian's heart greatly reduced.
In 1989, Hong Kong TVB put the story of "Chivalrous" on the TV screen for the first and only time. This version of "Chivalrous" is directed by Wu Runquan and starring Liang Chaowei and Deng Cuiwen, which is also the last TV series filmed by Liang Chaowei.
In this version of "Chivalrous", the role of Ah Xiu is played by Chen Jiabi. However, this version of "Chivalrous" abandons the main line of Shi Shaotian, and unfolds the story with the line of Shi Zhongyu, not to mention Ding Bell, even the characters of Sword Swordsman and Ni Dong'er are more brilliant than Ah Xiu, so Ah Xiu has also become an almost dragon-like existence, basically leaving no impression on the audience. In terms of image, Chen Jiabi's version of Ah Xiu looks like a very ordinary girl, which basically does not make people think that she is the "dog brother" Who is fascinated by the sky.
In 2017, Zhang Jizhong's team finally began to attack "Chivalrous". The version of "Chivalrous Travel" is directed by Wei Xiong and Zhao Jian, starring Cai Yida, Zhang Jiani, Zheng Wensen, Li Jingyang, etc., and Li Jingyang plays Bai Axiu.
This version of "Chivalrous" The whole drama is full of Zhang Jizhong's team's late self-release atmosphere, in addition to the actor's awkward acting skills, even the tones and costumes are colorful, making people feel that this is not watching "Chivalrous", but running to the Lichun Courtyard of "Deer Ding". Li Jingyang's white embroidery looks extremely embarrassing, you said that your acting skills are generally even if it is not enough, even the most basic aspect of A xiu's appearance is not passed, making people feel that this is not an embroidery at all, it is an ordinary lady.
For this "Chivalrous Journey", netizens also relentlessly scored a 4.0 ultra-low score on Douban, in my opinion, the quality of this drama and this score are still very matched.
The last grand introduction for everyone is naturally the Director Wang Xinmin's Ah Xiu played by Zhang Yanmin in the 2001 film "Chivalrous", which is also the most recognized version by the audience so far.
Ah Xiu, played by Zhang Yanmin, seems to come from the book, with a clear face and a polite Sven, so that people can see that she is the beloved little princess of the Snow Mountain Sect. In addition, this version of Ah Xiu is also a divine restoration for the various plots in the book, such as the characteristics of Ah Xiu's crying, such as Ah Xiu's love at first sight with Shi Shaotian, and for example, Ah Xiu has never mistakenly recognized Shi Shaotian, which is very well controlled by Zhang Yanmin, and Ah Xiu's gentle and elegant, gentle and courteous image is also established as soon as he appears. There is a song in the play called "Heavenly Fairy", which is tailor-made for the role of Ah Xiu, and when you think of Ah Xiu played by Zhang Yanmin, you will feel in minutes: she is the beautiful fairy who landed from the sky. If you compare it with the three versions we mentioned earlier, you may really say that there is no harm without contrast, and this kind of embroidery is what the audience wants.
Unfortunately, although Zhang Yanmin's appearance is a goddess level and her acting skills are also very passable, her later development is not satisfactory, which has to be said to be a pity.
So after watching the above four versions of "Chivalrous" version of Ah Xiu, which version is everyone's favorite? You are welcome to comment on the message.
