Hello, I am Li Xinhai, an entrepreneur who helps professionals transform into trainers.
During the New Year's Day holiday in 2021, I spent some time making a full-year business plan for 2021. After completing it, I decided to relax for a while, so I clicked on Tencent Video and watched cartoons to relax. (Why are you watching cartoons? Because your childlike innocence is still there)
During the selection process, I discovered the animation "Douluo Dalu". I clicked on it and watched it for a while. It was over. I fell in love with "Douluo Dalu" crazily. I continued to watch it episode after episode. Fortunately, When I watched it, 140 episodes had been updated, which I enjoyed watching, because normally one episode is updated every week, and 140 episodes takes about 3 years.
Although I have finished watching 140 episodes and spent a lot of time, I have gained two major gains. The first is on my own level. I imagined myself as Tang San and the protagonist in the animation. The second is the career level. I train trainers, and "Douluo Dalu" is about the growth of soul masters, especially Tang San's teacher and master. The master's guidance to Tang San gave me a deeper inspiration for training as a trainer. (When I was a child, my mother said that watching cartoons is useless and delays learning. In fact, I learned a lot of principles of life and work from cartoons and applied them)
I was waiting for the update of episode 141, which was updated once a week, which was too slow, so I read the novel while eating, when I went to the bathroom, and for half an hour before going to bed. There was a lot of text in the novel, so I just browsed it quickly to understand the general outline. It took me about three days to finish reading the original novel of "Douluo Dalu". After watching it, I felt completely empty and thought, how great it would be if there was a TV series of "Douluo Dalu".
So, I searched in the Toutiao app every day to see when the TV series would be released. In the early stage, it said December 2020, and in the later stage, it said January 2021. Finally, I waited and started updating on February 5th. As of today, February On the 24th, the first season of the Douluo Dalu TV series was completed.
I have a habit of writing articles and reviewing TV series. I hope to watch them all and then give an overall evaluation.
So, now that the "Douluo Dalu" TV series has finished airing, I am here. I decided to write this article to convince all those who say that the "Douluo Dalu" TV series is not good. (I hope you are not extreme, don’t dislike it just because you have some reasons, but analyze the advantages and disadvantages. If the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, then you should be convinced)
Okay, now let me talk about the five major advantages of the TV series "Douluo Dalu" in my opinion, and they are also the five reasons.
The first reason: Tang San’s character
The content of the novel and the animation are exactly the same. Although Tang San is excellent and Tang San is a good person, Tang San will also kill many bad people. The use of Tang Sect's hidden weapons can kill people invisible. In the modification of the TV series, Tang San did not kill anyone and was kind-hearted. At most, he killed spirit beasts to obtain spirit rings. The TV series "Douluo Dalu" was broadcast on CCTV. The expression of Tang San's positive energy played by Xiao Zhan also conveyed to society the rules of life and doing things: be kind and don't bully the weak.
The second reason: classic quotations
If Tang San's character creation is just a concept, then the classic quotes that appear in the TV series are the concrete embodiment of positive energy.
"There is no useless martial spirit, only useless people"
"I will not take the path you chose. I will go on my own and find a way."
"The strong should protect the weak by nature"
"Isn't being a soul master just to challenge fate?"
"Martial spirits must be fought with dignity and dignity"
"Girls should be independent and live for themselves."
"How can you see a rainbow without going through wind and rain?"
"Auxiliary soul masters cannot abandon their companions."
"Home is people, not houses. No amount of money can buy my dad back."
Some of the above classic quotations are from the original novel, but more quotations are new additions to the TV series. There are more contents that I have not written out. You need to read them carefully. You can choose one as your own motto.
The third reason: college life
In the novels and animations, life at Shrank Academy is downplayed and more about training. The modification of the TV series has added a part of life, which is like entering my own college life. When I was watching the TV series, I thought, if I could go to college again, when the semester started, when the brothers in the dormitory communicated, we would go to the cafeteria together. , it feels great.
Therefore, the advantages of the TV series "Douluo Dalu" must include college life, so that all those born in the 80s, 90s, and 00s can resonate.
The fourth reason: Xiao Wu’s casting
Xiao Zhan is very good, starring Tang San. I believe that his fans, as well as non-Xiao Zhan fans, will become fans after watching the TV series. It seems that it was destined that Tang San should be played by Xiao Zhan. This undoubtedly illustrates the director's casting standards and abilities. Similarly, although many people are not optimistic about Xiao Wu's casting, many articles on the Internet say that Wu Xuanyi, the actor who plays Xiao Wu, has poor acting skills. But from my personal point of view, I think she fits Xiao Wu’s characteristics and creates a classic character. At this point I want to say that in the second season, I hope Wu Xuanyi will continue to play Xiao Wu.
Reason Five: Weakened Fighting
I don’t want to talk about the special effects. Yes, the special effects are good and enjoyable to watch. The original novel and animation are very dedicated to impressing people. When you read the novel, you turn through a few pages, but the fight is not over. When you watch the cartoon, it’s so exciting. The episode lasts for 20 minutes, and there is no way to finish the fight in one go. When I saw the plot of the soul-catching beast in the forest to obtain the soul ring, the battle in the soul fighting arena, and the battle in the soul master competition, I burst out laughing. I had never seen such a fast fight. Although I didn’t calculate it, it was the shortest fight. , it will be done in 1 minute. After watching 40 episodes of the TV series, I regard the weakened fighting as an advantage and a reason to praise the design of this TV series. Large-scale investment and dazzling special effects are indeed eye-catching, but ingenious design, leaving more time to express more positive plots, I think is the way to go. I want to say to all viewers, don’t think about everything, including a perfect plot, cool fighting, and good looks and acting skills. The TV series compromises, chooses balance, and has corresponding emphasis, which is already good.
I’ve finished talking about the five reasons. I didn’t write too much, so I may not be able to convince you, or maybe the five reasons are not what you care about.
But I want to say that from the perspective of a viewer, I feel that the design and creativity in the adaptation of the TV series "Douluo Dalu" are well-intentioned. This is also a passionate drama that is in line with today's young people's aggressiveness and courage. It has a very inspiring effect on Chinese young people.
And I, Li Xinhai, have become a fan of Douluo Dalu after watching animations, novels and TV series. I also feel that this is tailor-made for me. Douluo Continent is the world of soul masters, and my career is the world of trainers. It contains the story of the master and Tang San, and I, Li Xinhai, train trainers every day, and there is also my own story in it.
Therefore, in my heart, an idea emerged. In the future, I will write a novel about the growth of a trainer. The feeling in it is that there will be me, the disciples and students I trained, and when the time is right in the future, I will I'm even looking forward to investing in a TV series. As for what is appropriate to start writing a novel, I will announce it later.
In short, I would like to thank the TV series "Douluo Dalu", the original author Tang Jiasanshao, and the TV series screenwriter Wang Juan.
Hope to see the second season as soon as possible.
