Ideal City has made many magical changes to the original work. What is inconsistent with the original work?
"Ideal City" starring Sun Li and Zhao Youting, this drama has 40 episodes, more than half of which have been aired. Su Xiao has made remarkable achievements in Tiancheng Company. Obviously, Sun Li's role as Su Xiao in the play is very clear. Afterwards, the development of Su Xiao's role was undoubtedly carried out from the perspective that Sun Li wanted. After reading the original novel "Su Xiao's War", you will find that the TV series has made significant changes to the original work. I believe that there will also be a series of changes in the second half, and some of these changes are very effective. But some of them were designed to better narrate and improve the villain system, but they didn’t seem that effective, and they also exposed two bugs in the storyline.
Change 1: Su Xiao’s estimator certificate
In the original novel, Su Xiao starts out as the estimator of Tiancheng Company. There is no problem with the character setting in the novel, but The novel has less than 300 pages, and the TV series that is to be expanded into 40 episodes is a bit weak. Therefore, the TV series gradually followed the herd mentality to build the group company, and assigned Su Xiao to start from scratch after being fired, and the cost engineer certificate was fully charged. A series of twists and turns and contradictions, this kind of plot design is very good, and it also gives Sun Li a villain role from the beginning, and the foreshadowing of Xia Ming's early drama is also relatively successful, and it is an effective adaptation.
Change 2: The conflict between Su Xiao and Maria is too blunt
In the first 20 episodes of the TV series, Manager Tiancheng and Xia Ming were strong supporters of Su Xiao, while others Almost all of the characters have become obstacles in Su Xiao's path, especially Maria, the company's head of human resources management. Because of Su Xiao's letter of complaint, she has been resisting Su Xiao's recruitment and promotion of new employees.
But the hero sees the same thing. As the person in charge of corporate HR, Maria gets along a lot with the CEO Zhao Xiankun. Why is it that she doesn’t know the CEO’s thoughts and is so ignorant of the overall situation, but looks at Su Xiao? Regardless of your ability to work. In this regard, the novel collection is more effective. In the original work, Maria was not only not Su Xiao's reformist, but was on her side from beginning to end in many key points that determined Su Xiao's fate. However, during the rewriting stage of the TV series, major changes were made in order to better enhance the contradictions and antagonisms. , such an adjustment makes it impossible to generalize.
Change 3: The design of Su Xiao’s bribery came too early
The design of the major classic scenes in "Ideal City" relatively follows the original work, such as being implemented within Tiancheng New policies, several project biddings, and accusations of corruption and bribery by designer Su Xiao, etc. However, in the play, the bribery of Su Xiao is allocated to Tiancheng Company, which brings forward the classic part in the original work, and it seems that it is not strong enough. This classic episode in the novel takes place when Su Xiao enters the head office and threatens the influence of Chief Economist Xu Zhiping and also jeopardizes the rights and interests of other companies, and then encounters a dilemma. At this stage, this level is very important to Su Xiao. It's a little bit more powerful, but moving this segment earlier makes it less powerful.
Change 4: Su Xiao’s character design and character relationships
The key to the original novel collection basically lies in the human field. In Wang Yang’s words, it is Su Xiao. Like Zhao Xiankun, both have a desire to achieve success, so in the early days Su Xiao was all about her career, until the novel came to an end, when the two talented people really fell in love. However, the TV series fully considered that the male and female protagonists should team up as soon as possible to effectively attract the audience, so Su Xiao and Xia Ming had an ambiguous relationship from the beginning. The role of He Yao was not in the original work at all. The director made a complicated arrangement in order to enhance the relationship. With this kind of character, allowing three people to engage in a "love triangle" can naturally highlight Zhao Youting's importance in the TV series.
?The TV series has made more than just changes to the original work, and there are even two changes that have obvious bugs.
One of them is the Space City project. The TV series highlights the process and difficulties of Su Xiao and Xia Ming's fight for this project, creating opportunities for the two to get along. The newly appointed leader paid attention to Feng Shui, and finally won the project. It was Su Xiao who proposed to change the building walls to glass curtain walls, and change the original pointed shape into metal materials. This won the approval of the residents, and then won the project. This new project was praised by Wang Yang at Tiancheng's internal meeting.
