Have you seen the domestic movie "Real Wolf, Sheep and Pig"?

Special feature of 1905 film network Compared with the domestic animated film Nezha, which has won nearly 1 billion box office in just a few days, the new version of The Lion King, which was adapted from Disney animation, is somewhat "acclimatized". Up to now, the box office in the Mainland has just exceeded 800 million. No one’s all-CG "real lion version" adaptation form also appeared on the big screen for the first time, which caused a lot of controversy.

Netizen’s homemade "Lion King" animation style Xiao Simba

Audiences who are familiar with Disney will be familiar with the "live-action version" of animated films. There are princess series such as Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Curse, etc., which have captured the hearts of many young girls, and later include Dumbo, Aladdin and Fantasy Forest. The live-action version of Mulan, starring China movie star Liu Yifei, has been occupying the hot search list for many days.

What many people don’t know, however, is that the source of Disney’s animated adaptation of live-action movies should be traced back to jungle book in 1994, and Fantasy Forest, which was released in 16 years, was also adapted from the The Jungle Book. The hero of the film is also a Chinese movie star — — Jason Scott Lee.

A real person, lion, wolf, elephant and monkey version of jungle book.

It’s just that the movie didn’t cause much response after it was released. Disney didn’t arrange such a huge animation adaptation plan for live-action movies until Alice in Wonderland and Sleeping Curse made a good box office.

Disney live-action adaptation movie box office list

Animation adaptation of real-life film and television works has always been a way of film and television production. Excellent original paintings have accumulated audiences and word of mouth, but it is not easy to break through the limitations of comics and gain more audiences. For example, the word-of-mouth and box office of The Lion King have formed a huge gap, which is not conducive to the subsequent expansion of the Lion King IP.

In China, there are also a large number of film and television works adapted from live-action versions, among which there are many excellent classics and wonderful works.

Let Xiao Dianjun take you to find out.

Anime adaptation of the live-action movie China existed 70 years ago.

As early as 1948, we had already made a cartoon adaptation of a live-action movie — — San Mao, played by Wang Longji, is also the first real-life cartoon image on the screen in China. Zhang Leping created Sanmao in 1935. He is thin and short, with only three hairs on his head. He can only make a living by selling newspapers, polishing shoes and being an apprentice, but he still struggles hard with life. He can be said to be the epitome of suffering children in the old society.

The comic book "San Mao Joining the Army" was published in Shanghai Shenbao in 1946, which was a sensation. Another masterpiece, The Wandering of Sanmao, was serialized in Ta Kung Pao the following year. Sanmao written by Zhang Leping aroused strong social repercussions because it reflected profound social contradictions. In those days, life was hard, and people needed people with the spirit of "Xiaoqiang" like San Mao.

In 1948, the film "San Mao Wandering"

In 1948, Sanmao first went from comic books to the big screen. Of course, the film experienced many twists and turns from production to release, including stopping shooting, hiding in the snow and continuing shooting, and finally was released in December 1949. On the eve of founding ceremony, as the first step of the official release of the new China, the film "San Mao’s Wandering Tale" was first released in Shanghai Daguangming, Maggie and other theaters. During the two months of continuous screening in Shanghai, it was full.

In the 1980s, this film also participated in a series of European exhibitions, and caused a sensation at Cannes Film Festival. It was shown in six cinemas in Paris for 60 days, followed by another month. At this year’s Shanghai International Film Festival, a 4k restored version of San Mao’s Wandering Story also appeared in the screening unit.

According to statistics, there are more than 50 kinds of comic books about Sanmao’s image, and the cumulative printing quantity exceeds 10 million copies. On the basis of the adaptation of the original comics and movies, a series of film and television dramas about Sanmao have emerged. It was adapted into a movie twice in 1958 and 1980, a TV series twice in 1996 and 1999, and an animation by CCTV in 2006.

The reason why Sanmao can become a national classic children’s figure is closely related to the time when he was created and the lack of people’s entertainment resources, so the derived adaptation works can last for nearly 60 years.

These wonderful adaptation forms may be unheard of by you.

The big move of Disney animation adaptation film is to restart the classic IP and harvest a new wave of young audiences. Although according to the box office of The Lion King and Aladdin, Disney has achieved its goal, but this new wine in a bottle is also a double-edged sword, and Disney’s creativity may disappear with the adaptation.

The technology of real people +CGI can make the scenes in animation vivid, but many years ago, the imaginative space that animation could give the audience was stifled by the "animal telling people" that was too realistic and inconsistent.

If cartoons and animations are well received and widely spread before adaptation, it will be difficult for the live-action version to surpass the original. The preconceived idea will make the audience unconsciously compare the real person with the cartoon character, and once the deviation of the real person’s casting is too large, the reputation of the whole work may collapse.

Live-action version of Big Head Son and Little Head Dad

In 2018, Ying Da made the national animation "Big Head Son and Little Head Dad" into a sitcom. Although the animation series also launched a restart version of the drama series and 3D movies before, the images of big head son and little head dad also maintained a consistent "animation style".

This sitcom uses live actors instead of special effects, which will inevitably lead to the "smaller head" of the big-headed son, and the little-headed father played by Chen Chuang has nothing to lose, so this drama has no interest.

Little head dad, big head son and apron mom are three.

Just like the big-headed son doesn’t have a "big head", the apron mother just wears an apron. This way, there is no way to fool the original audience of comics.

Since the use of real-life realism has been criticized, the original image has lost its charm, so how do these "surreal" images behave?

Old Master Q shows off his skills.

Old Master Q, a Hong Kong cartoon, has been adapted into a real movie for many years, and the most influential one is The Professor 2001 directed by Qiu Litao and produced by Tsui Hark. The film adopts a combination of real people and animation, using CG technology to make Old Master Q, sweet potato and "Feng Zhi" group contract stage drag show.

The form of using real people to play real people and using special effects to make "dummies" really brought a refreshing feeling to the audience in that year, and finally gained a box office score of 18.36 million Hong Kong dollars, ranking among the top ten in Hong Kong box office in 2001. It has also achieved a leap in Hong Kong’s film special effects technology.

Old Master Q, sweet potato and Cecilia Cheung.

The adaptation of the following films is even more "nonsense" — — The switch of honey juice between human pig and Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade also puzzled the audience.

"Springfield Flower Reunion" BiBi Zhou plays McDull when he grows up.

In 2006, the popular McDull series was remake into a live-action movie "Springfield Flower Reunion". BiBi Zhou, who has just made her debut as a "super girl", plays a girl who forgets her childhood heart and finally realizes that she was a pig when she was a child after being tortured by robbers.

The film takes the form of two-dimensional animation and a brand-new original story of real people, forcibly treating the animation part as a fragment of memories. In the end, the film did not gain traffic and word of mouth because of the blessing of a number of Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, and was even regarded as a failure of the McDull series.

The lazy sheep and the gray taro couple crossed

The adaptation form of real people’s happiness and big Wolf movies is even more surprising — — This time, Big Wolf and Pleasant Goat crossed into the real world to rescue Little Grey, and turned into human beings.

Wang Xun becomes a big wolf.

Although Wang Xun’s acting skills can fully support the role of Big Wolf, it is still difficult to connect the real person with the wolf without acting. Wang Xun dyed a yellow hair and combed his hair back in order to be close to Big Big Wolf in color matching, but his trademark rabbit teeth can’t really show the sinister wolf nature.

Whether McDull, Pleasant Goat or Big Big Wolf, the original cartoons are all positioned in children, so the adapted film and television works are also geared to younger audiences.

However, in contrast to Disney’s "live version" films, the original animation also tells fairy tales, but after being adapted from reality, it attracts audiences of all ages to enter the cinema.

 In recent years, with the gradual maturity of China’s film market, the animation-adapted live-action films are gradually getting rid of the style of being young and young, and the audience has turned from children and teenagers to the adult market, and many excellent quality works have emerged, "Fuck off! Tumor jun, Get My Brother Away, Animal World and other films can achieve a double harvest in word-of-mouth box office. Apart from the star joining, they also benefit from the adaptation of the story.

"Black Cat Sheriff" animation film

In 2015, it was reported that Lu Chuan was going to direct a live-action version of Sheriff Black Cat.

Now nearly five years have passed, and there is no progress in the film. We may expect that China can also make a "real cat version" of Sheriff Black Cat in the future.

Finally, there is a wise man! Sun Xi sent a message: Actors can’t do everything for one person.

Sun Xi


1905 movie network news A few days ago, Sun Xi, a Beijing people’s art actress who was loved by the audience for her role as "Aunt Xi" in Empresses in the Palace, published a long article in Weibo on the question "Why even the best actors have uncontrollable roles", and put forward her own profound and unique opinions. Taking her personal experience as a case, she objectively analyzed the reasons why it is difficult for actors to overlap with each role 100%, which attracted praises from netizens.


I don’t know when the trend of using "one person with thousands of faces" to describe idol acting suddenly rose in the pink circle, and various fans have developed different titles. For a time, no matter whether it is small fresh meat or old bones, everyone plays like what, and each one is "one person with thousands of faces".


Searching for "one person with thousands of faces" in Baidu has many results.

The problem is that although "one person has thousands of faces, it is the greatest praise for an actor and the dream that many actors have been pursuing". The difference between an ideal and a dream is that what you can achieve through hard work is an ideal, and what you can’t achieve through hard work is basically a dream. This time, professional actors finally stood up and told us with objective and rational brushstrokes: "Even the best actors do have roles that they can’t control."

Sun Xi published a long article in Weibo.


In the long article, Sun Xi deeply analyzed the objective factors that it is difficult for even a particularly excellent actor to be 100% coincident with every role.


I will also share my personal experience in college as a case, which shows that the lack of subjective conditions will also affect the actor’s interpretation of the role.


With clear logic and well-founded reply, Sun Xi has been praised by many people in the industry and also praised by netizens: "I have known you since Feng Yuan, and your favorite performance in the world is Feng Yuan. From Feng Yuan to Park Sunseeker, it feels like your growth as a good actor, and you should play a role that suits you at the right age." "Goddess, you should go further and further on the road to being a good actor."


Therefore, in fact, fans really don’t need to boast that idols are "one person with thousands of faces". As actors, every stage of life has a mentality at each stage, and there will be roles suitable for each stage. Grasping the present, shooting every play well, taking every role seriously, looking back on your career one day and putting all the roles together are naturally irrefutable "one person has thousands of faces."

China City News

  "Riders often perform’ speed of life and death’ when delivering takeout, and we can’t stop it at all." Wang Liru, a traffic persuader at an intersection in Chaoyang District, Beijing, said. Every afternoon and evening rush hours, Wang Li can always see many take-away riders "flash by" in front of her eyes-whether it is a red light or a green light; I have also seen many take-away riders have traffic accidents.

  

  Guo Kun, a rider, is one of the "speeding experts". He admitted to the reporter that he once ran red lights twice and went backwards three times in a delivery process, and the whole speed exceeded 50 kilometers per hour many times. "Of course I know it’s not safe, but if I don’t do it, I won’t be able to deliver it on time. If the delivery is overtime, more money will be deducted than it should be earned. " He said, "As a rider, which one didn’t cross the red light and which one didn’t exceed the speed?"

  

  With the development of Internet food ordering industry, take-away food delivery is more and more convenient for people’s lives, but at the same time, the pursuit of speed leads riders to ignore traffic regulations, and the accident rate is high.

  

  It is very common for riders to ignore the red light and go retrograde at intersections.

  

  At 6 o’clock on the afternoon of July 17, the take-away rider delivered food at the peak time. At an intersection connecting shopping malls with many office buildings and residential buildings in Chaoyang District, Beijing, the reporter observed that more than 70 riders passed by the intersection within 30 minutes, including as many as 35 people who went backwards, crossed the road obliquely and ran red lights.

  

  There are many restaurants around the intersection, and dozens of take-away electric cars fill the sidewalk, so pedestrians can only walk along the road. After the riders took the order to take the meal, they rode the electric car and drove directly into the road along the sidewalk.

  

  Guo Kun often delivers takeout in this area, with a delivery radius of up to 5 kilometers, and the delivery time of an order ranges from 30 minutes to 60 minutes. He told reporters that a rider may have six or seven orders at the same time during the peak delivery period, and the delivery time almost overlaps. If you don’t overtime, you can only try to compress the delivery time of each order. The system will provide route navigation for each order, but the delivery time is calculated according to the shortest route, and some shortest routes even include retrograde sections. If you don’t go retrograde and overspeed, it is impossible to deliver every order on time.

  

  Once the delivery is overtime, it will be costly: according to the overtime time, a certain proportion of the delivery fee will be deducted, sometimes as high as 70%. "Everyone earns hard money and has to be happy." Guo Kun said.

  

  Zhang Yi, who works as a security guard in Beijing, will work as a part-time rider during the holidays. "I definitely want to send more orders and earn more money." He said that the maximum speed of the national standard electric vehicle is only 25 yards. Normally, only two or three orders can be taken at a time. If you want to send more orders and speed up, you have to take risks to modify the electric vehicle. In order not to exceed the time limit, we must always keep an eye on the time during the delivery process, and it is inevitable to run a red light and go backwards.

  

  Luo Yu, a part-time rider from Guangzhou, Guangdong, faces the same dilemma. He only runs for three or four hours every day, focusing on lunch and dinner. On average, he completes more than a dozen orders a day. There are systematic orders and his own orders. Although there is a risk of overtime in taking more orders, Luo Yu still hopes to take more orders, because taking more orders means making money. When there are more lists in hand, it is common for him to run a red light and go backwards.

  

  The number of traffic accidents has increased, and the rights and interests of both parties are difficult to protect.

  

  Riders speeding, retrograde and running red lights lead to an increasing number of traffic accidents.

  

  According to the staff of Changsha Traffic Accident Handling Center in Hunan Province, a large part of traffic accidents involve take-away riders, most of which are running red lights and driving in the opposite direction, especially the phenomenon of watching mobile phones while riding. In recent years, the traffic accident rate of take-away riders is on the rise.

  

  On the evening of August 1, the sky was raining. The reporter witnessed a traffic accident in a residential area in Chaoyang District, Beijing: a take-away rider wore a raincoat with a rain hat half covering his eyes, riding while answering the phone, completely ignoring the passers-by walking ahead. After he reacted, he turned sharply, the electric car slipped directly, and the take-away in the incubator was scattered all over the floor.

  

  For riders, once an accident occurs, compensation is often difficult to achieve.

  

  Liu ling, a rider in Beijing, was once hit by a car while delivering takeout food, leaving a 5 cm scar on the outside of his arm. "The driver has insurance, and the insurance company asked me to provide proof of income to calculate the lost time. My monthly income at that time was about 10,000 yuan. When I could find a platform to prove my income, the platform said that this had nothing to do with them. Finally, the insurance company paid according to the minimum wage standard. "

  

  The rights and interests cannot be guaranteed, and there are passers-by who are injured by takeaway riders.

  

  Wang Pingping, a Beijing photographer, was injured by a takeaway rider on his way to work. After the accident, the traffic police decided that the rider was fully responsible for the accident, but the rider could not afford it, so he went to the platform company, but the other party completely ignored the responsibility. "In order to avoid injury, you can only try to stay away from the’ flying’ takeaway rider in the future." Wang Pingping said.

  

  Many factors lead to chaos platform algorithm needs to be improved.

  

  Many interviewed riders mentioned that on the one hand, they made more money in order to take more orders, on the other hand, they did it for platform performance evaluation and to avoid being punished for overtime.

  

  The reporter learned that at present, most take-away platforms implement piece-rate wages, and the income of riders mainly comes from the commission of "running orders". The more orders you take, the more you earn. In addition, the rider’s identity level depends on the rider’s "bee value", which is calculated by attendance, order quantity, response rate, favorable rate and other dimensions. The higher the "bee value", the more orders are sent. Riders are desperately running for the data and fighting for the "bee value" because it is closely related to income.

  

  Wu Jie is the stationmaster of a delivery platform outsourcing distribution company in Taian, Shandong. He told reporters that the take-away platform is usually only responsible for merchants’ entry and order generation, and the distribution service is outsourced to distribution companies, and then the local sites below each distribution company provide distribution services.

  

  "The reward and punishment systems of different distribution companies are basically similar, but the calculation rules are different. For example, in 4 yuan, the average unit price in Shandong, the reward and punishment system is relatively loose, and in 6 yuan to 8 yuan, the average unit price in Beijing, the reward and punishment system is more strict. The most important things in rider performance appraisal are punctuality rate, satisfaction rate, violation rate and attendance rate. " Wu Jie said.

  

  "Regarding complaints and bad reviews, if full-time riders encounter such situations, they can either negotiate with customers or only accept fines." Wu Jie said, "Part-time riders deduct personal credit points according to the situation. When the credit points are insufficient, it is forbidden to take orders. You need online training to answer questions to restore the right to take orders. In more serious cases, the title will be permanently sealed."

  

  Some riders have also suggested that there are many unreasonable places in the distance algorithm of the platform. For example, the delivery time is calculated according to the distance, and it will not be judged according to the speed of the merchant’s meal, the small meal, and the presence or absence of special circumstances on the road.

  

  Dong Laichao, an expert in traffic law practice and the chief lawyer of Beijing Kaiya Law Firm, has long been concerned about the rights and interests of take-away riders. He summed up the reasons for the frequent traffic violations of riders. Apart from the riders’ poor awareness of traffic rules and lack of safety education, the unreasonable platform dispatching mode and single algorithm are important reasons.

  

  It is urgent to supervise and control chaos with certificates.

  

  In fact, as early as 2021, the Guiding Opinions on Implementing the Responsibility of Online Catering Platforms and Effectively Safeguarding the Rights and Interests of Take-away Food Delivery Personnel was jointly issued by the General Administration of Market Supervision, the National Network Information Office and the National Development and Reform Commission. It was proposed that the platform should not take "the strictest algorithm" as the assessment requirement, and the assessment factors such as order quantity, punctuality rate and online rate can be reasonably determined through "algorithm selection" and the delivery time limit can be appropriately relaxed. Online catering platforms and third-party cooperative units shall participate in social insurance for take-away food delivery personnel who establish labor relations according to law, and encourage other take-away food delivery personnel to participate in social insurance.

  

  The reporter observed a take-away platform and found that its pilot changed the "estimated delivery time point" to "estimated delivery time period", and set up "punctual treasure" to guarantee the delivery time of the order. If the rider fails to deliver within this time period, the platform will pay the corresponding amount according to the overtime. However, on the rider’s order page, it still shows how many minutes it is required to be delivered, which has strict time limit. However, the rider can extend the delivery time by reporting that the merchant is slow to eat, and the delivery time is calculated from the time the order is received.

  

  It is urgent to balance the contradiction between "slowing down" and "income" of takeaway riders.

  

  A number of interviewed experts and industry insiders pointed out that controlling the traffic violations of take-away riders is inseparable from joint supervision, one is the supervision of the platform, and the other is the supervision of the riders.

  

  Dong Laichao suggested that the platform adjust the assessment rules and optimize the algorithm. At present, many take-away platforms have not established a set of mechanisms to encourage take-away riders to reduce traffic violations, such as rewarding take-away riders who have not committed traffic violations; We can make full use of big data intelligent analysis, formulate standards, remove the time spent on traffic congestion from rider assessment, and ignore unreasonable bad reviews.

  

  In addition, in his view, it is urgent to set up a strict industry access system for take-away riders, and it is recommended that riders be certified. For example, a social management subject is determined to train riders, and after the training, the riders are certified to work, and the riders are assessed every year. If the traffic violations reach a certain number of times, the annual review will not be passed in the next year, and effective supervision will be formed through source management.
