"Cheng Huan Ji" and "Cherish the Flowers", two popular dramas in April, are adapted from novels, and the ratings and drama reviews are not bad, but they are considered "magic changes" by some fans of the original book. It's not easy to adapt to please fans of the original novel! But some dramas are the opposite, even if the magic is so bad that even the author can't recognize it, it still receives full praise! The following online reviews of 9 god-level adaptations that "even book fans have to praise"! The drama version of "Canglan Jue" is more classic than the novel, and the author of the 9th part really wants to kneel down to thank the screenwriter!
The adaptation evaluation of "Chenghuan Ji" and "Cherish the Flowers" is polar
The recent hits "The Legend of Cheng Huan" and "Cherish the Flowers" are all adapted from novels, but book fans have polarized evaluations of the adaptations of the two dramas. "The Story of Cheng Huan" is adapted from Yi Shu's novel, and the drama version has changed the sharp, delicate and self-interested style of the novel, and the character design has also changed a lot. For example, in the novel "Chenghuan", grandma is not as likable as the drama version, and even Chenghuan's mother, who many people can't stand it, is already much more humane than the novel!

and Yao Zhiming played by Xu Kai, he has very few scenes in the original novel, and Chenghuan just takes what he needs. It wasn't until later that he was moved first, but Cheng Huan still had the attitude of playing the world. The drama version makes the love line between the two better and sweeter. The audience's opinions on the adaptation of "Cheng Huan Ji" are very extreme, and book fans think that the drama version is magically changed, but some drama fans think that "Cheng Huan Ji" has successfully captured the audience's taste, and the added dramatic tension can attract the audience even more.

"Cherish the Flowers", which was popular at the same time, also has fans who think that the magic has changed. This drama is adapted from the empty novel, the original novel is more inclined to the story of the "big heroine", the heroine has a big halo, and the drama version makes up for the supporting roles and becomes closer to the "female group drama".

Book fans think that the drama version of "Cherish Flowers" has been changed beyond recognition, while fans think that the rhythm of the drama version is moderate, everyone has a play from the protagonist to the supporting role, and the evaluations of book fans and drama fans are very polarized.

However, there are also some drama versions that have been overhauled, but they have changed to dramas that even book fans are satisfied with:
"Even book fans have to praise" magic drama 1: "Canglan Jue"
"Canglan Jue" is adapted from Jiulu Feixiang's novel "Demon Zun", which is recognized as the most successful novel in Jiulu Feixiang's film and television, and Douban has a high score of 8.1. In the original novel, not so many people love Little Orchid, and Little Orchid has been helpless since the master was locked up, like Changheng Xianjun and Jiejun are all new characters in the drama version. In the novel, only Dongfang Qingcang is good to her, but Dongfang Qingcang is also using her, but even if the little orchid knows all this, she is still reluctant to let Dongfang Qingcang be good.

Many netizens said that Dongfang Qingcang in the original novel is actually not so warm, and he is the real scum big devil, but the drama version retains the character design of the original novel "The Great Demon King Falls in Love with the Little Fairy", and has more foreshadowing for the emotional changes between the two, and Dongfang Qingcang is also warmer, so that all drama fans can substitute it. Very good!

"Even book fans have to praise" magic drama 2: "Flowers"
"Flowers" is also a novel adaptation! Adapted from Kim Woo-cheng's novel, the original book is a famous work that has won many literary awards, and the drama version of "Flowers" is directed by the famous director Wong Kar-wai, who has made this story into a different look.

The drama version of "Flowers" has changed a lot, the novel originally had three protagonists, and the drama version condensed the perspective on the male protagonist Po and adapted it to be more dramatic. Many fans of the original book said that the drama version of "Flowers" has basically been changed to have nothing to do with the novel, but there is no doubt that the adaptation is very successful. The story tells the story of the early nineties of the last century, when everyone competed for the top, and the male protagonist Po left a legend.

"Even book fans have to praise" magic drama 3: "The Legend of Sword and Fairy I"
"The Legend of Sword and Fairy I" was criticized by game fans for changing the bloodbath forum, but in the end, it was a god, not only the originator of Xianxia dramas, but also with a Douban score of 9.1, and now there is still no Xianxia drama that can surpass it. "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" was originally a stand-alone game with the theme song "Fate", the game was first released in 1995 and has a certain fan base, and the drama version of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" has been magically modified on the basis of the game.

Back then, the gamers of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" had various crusades against the crew, even if the screenwriter wrote a long letter to explain the original story adaptation, the players just didn't buy it. However, after the broadcast, it exploded, and various elements such as heroes, rivers and lakes, counterattacks, and love were integrated into it, attracting netizens who love male frequency novels and romance novels.

Recently, "See You Again", adapted from the same story, was also broadcast, and this version focuses on "highly restoring the game plot", intending to go out of a different path from "Sword and Fairy", but the Douban score is only 6.4. Although there is no thunder as everyone expected, there are no highlights that attract the audience too much.

"Even book fans have to praise" magic drama 4: "The Charmer Has No Borders"
"The Charmer Without Borders" is adapted from the novel of the same name, and the original novel is the thorough "Little Yellow Text". To what extent is Huang? It's all you can think of, and there are unexpected Yeyan plots, and almost every chapter is very A, but I didn't expect this kind of inappropriate Huang Wen to be made into a TV series, and it's very good-looking!

The TV series "The Charmer Without Borders" completely sublimates the whole story, the drama version only retains the main line of the original novel, and all the other yellow plots are deleted, but the plot of the power struggle is strengthened, and the story becomes more interesting, the hero and heroine protect each other in the hellish evil organization, and the emotional line is also very delicate and moving, and the adaptation is really super good! "The Charmer Without Borders" also won the Top Ten Boutique Online Drama Awards at the 2019 Golden Guduo Online Film and Television Festival.

"Even book fans have to praise" magic drama 5: "The Royal Gift"
Although the drama version of "The Royal Gift" is magically changed, it is also an adaptation of God, and the Douban score of the drama version is as high as 8.0, far better than the original novel 5.9 points! It is adapted from the novel of the same name by the idle girl, the novel is a sweet detective sand carving, but the drama version sublimates the whole story, there is no formulaic sugar-sprinkling routine, and the suspenseful and compact detective plot with full logic brings the idea of the story to a new height, while still retaining the warm and sweet love line, and the characters of the protagonist and supporting roles are set up vividly, getting rid of the consistent beautiful men and sweet girls of the sweet drama.

"Fragrant Honey Sinks Like Frost" is adapted from the novel of the same name by Wire, the original work is in the Xianxia novel, and its popularity and popularity are only at a medium level, which is completely incomparable with other top IPs. Unexpectedly, the TV series was directly filmed into a hit, and it also became popular with Yang Zi, Deng Lun and Luo Yunxi, the scenery and special effects were also great, and several theme songs were all out of the circle.

The length of the original novel is shorter, the TV series expands many plots, sublimates the whole story, and the characters of many characters have been strengthened, so the story is more abusive and tense, especially the character of Runyu, which is a less conspicuous existence in the novel, but the TV series has become a classic, in addition to Luo Yunxi's good performance, it is also the change of the character setting that makes him more attractive. Therefore, although the drama version of "Fragrant Honey Sinks Like Frost" is magically changed and has a big difference from the original novel, it is even better!

"Even book fans have to praise" magic drama 7: "Celebrating More Than Years"
"Celebrating More Than Years" is adapted from the greasy novel of the same name, it is a conspiracy novel with many book fans, before "Celebrating More Than Years" was released, everyone thought it would be a costume drama, because the series ended Chen Daoming, Wu Gang and other old drama bones, and the production level is also a big drama level, but I didn't expect it to become a comedy after the broadcast, you can laugh while watching.

The screenwriter of the drama version of "Celebrating More Than Years" is Wang Ti, he is the screenwriter of "Legend of Dance and Music" and "Chronicles of the Song Dynasty", he added a lot of humorous elements to "Celebrating More Than Years", such as the male protagonist saying modern lines such as robot cats and pickled girls, as well as his funny interactions with other characters. Although it is not the "big male protagonist drama" that everyone imagined, this kind of light comedy drama with a bit of funny humor is obviously more to everyone's appetite.

"Even book fans have to praise" magic drama 8: "River God"
"River God" is adapted from the novel "River God 1: Ghost and Water Monster Talk" by Tianxia Ba Sing, in fact, the structure of the original novel is loose, it is difficult to film and television, and the author Tianxia Ba Sing is not good at multi-line narrative, and often the reader forgets what he was talking about before as soon as he interjects the narrative. But the drama version of "River God" cleverly captures the essence of the novel, and then turns the little junior brother Ding Mao into the eldest young master of the Caoyun Chamber of Commerce, and turns Li Da into a little goddess Naturally, the emotional line is added, and the role setting of the protagonist group is completely different from the original novel, but it is more vivid and three-dimensional.

It can be said that although the structure of the novel is completely broken up in the TV series "River God", the shape is scattered, the internal temperament of the whole work is the same as the original work, the original party will not feel disobedient, the new audience is more attracted, and the magic change is better!

Unexpectedly, the TV series version applied the whole story to the Qing Dynasty, and the customized photos showed each wearing Qing Dynasty flag uniforms, and all the original fans collapsed and became disillusioned.

What is even more unacceptable to fans of the original book is that the number one beautiful man in the novel turned out to be Chen Jianbin , and everyone thought that the director was joking. As everyone knows, "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has become the most classic Qing palace drama after the originator of the palace fighting drama "Golden Branch Desire", the whole story is elevated, and it has been upgraded by more than one grade.
