拒绝“拖延” 《叶问》迎来开门红
  一提起武侠戏,很多人都会想到近两年火热的《叶问》、《龙门飞甲》、《太极》、《一代宗师》等等电影作品,而电视荧屏上的武侠作品却并不多。昨日,由郑嘉颖、韩雪、刘小锋、周秀娜、宋洋、于荣光、梁小龙、元华等众多实力派演员联袂打造的电视剧《叶问》登陆山东齐鲁电视台白金剧场,每晚三集连播。该剧讲述了叶问从一个单纯善良的青年历经种种,最后蜕变为一代宗师的故事。
Popular shows like Ip Man, The Flying Swords of Dragon Gate, Taichi, The Grandmasters etc comes to mind when people think of martial art based movies however it is very difficult to name even one TV series which is of similar popularity. Yesterday, Ip Man which cast consists of Kevin Cheng, Han Xue, Liu Xiaofeng, Song Yang, Liang Xiaolong, Yuen Wah etc premiered on Shandong Qilu TV Channel primetime. Everyday 3 episodes will be aired. The show tells the story from being a simple youth to eventually evolving into the grandmaster that we all know.


  电视剧《叶问》从“喋血广州”、“情变”、“落难香港”、“打倒军阀”、“天津扬威”、“抗战抗战”六个故事单元讲述叶问成为一代宗师的历程。紧凑的情节和励志的故事吸引了许多年龄段的观众,清晰明朗的单元故事设计剔除了以往电视剧“拖延”的诟病,昨日一经播出便迎来开门红。据悉,TVB(香港电视广播有限公司)已抢先购得剧版《叶问》的全球播出版权,将在TVB覆盖的香港、新加坡、马来西亚、澳大利亚、新西兰、美国、加拿大、欧洲等国家及地区相继播出。其名下的翡翠台是香港收视率最高的电视频道,该台对作品过硬的质量十分看重。一直以播放自制节目而出名的该台极少播放外购电视剧。此次的排播,足见其对剧版《叶问》的高度重视和肯定。
The TV series consists of 6 sub-plots which will tell the story of Ip Man's journey to becoming the grandmaster. Compact and inspirational plot has attracted viewers of all ages. Crystal clear sub-plots is a far cry from other TV series that usually prolongs each plot. The premiere yesterday ushered the show to a very good start. It is understood that TVB has already bought the global broadcasting rights to be broadcasted on TVB linked channels in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, Europe etc. Jade is Hong Kong's highest rating TV channel and will be tasked to air this series. This station is rarely known to broadcast non home-made productions. The arrangement to have Jade broadcast Ip Man, a foreign production, just goes to show the degree of attention and recognition given to the show.

  崇文尚武 剧版造就“问题”宗师
  与其他一味追求视觉效果的武侠作品不同,电视剧《叶问》除了在画面感上可以满足观众越来越挑剔的审美,在叙事上更注重挖掘人文色彩。该剧在播出前连续放出6个片花吸引了无数网友的观看并广受好评,甚至有网友表示比看电影更“过瘾”。剧中,叶问初到广州便被卷入黑暗政治斗争,单纯善良的他为血雨腥风不择手段的革命方式而疑惑不解。好兄弟的误会和反目、功夫理想与爱情的选择、被人陷害成“杀人犯”不得不背井离乡……种种不幸的遭遇打击着年少单纯的叶问,既敲问着他的内心,又是他蜕变的动力。
Unlike other shows which blindly pursue the visual effects, apart from meeting the audience's ever increasing aesthetic sense, it also focuses on the getting the best out of each individual. The production company has, prior to the premiere, released 6 trailers which attracted numerous audience and good praise. In the show, Ip Man found himself entangled in political battle the very first time he arrived in Guangzhou. The innocent and simple Ip Man was puzzled at the unscrupulous ways in the name of revolution. Misunderstandings and betrayal by his friends, choice between martial arts and love, framed as a murderer causing him to leave home...all sorts of turbulence was thrown in his way, both affected him emotionally but also transformed him.

  作为一个向往高山的人,在武者困惑和蜕变中,叶问不停地“问”。问自己,问世人,问这个国家……剧中叶问的诸多“问”也让一些网友笑称郑嘉颖版叶问是个“问题”宗师。对此,该剧总导演范小天在感慨网友的幽默后表示:“叶问面对人生诸多疑问砥砺奋进。他质朴善良,对武学救国执着探寻让他最终成为一代宗师。”同时他坦言,正是这么多的“问”,使得TVB台内编审以及监制等看过《叶问》的样片之后,一致认为该剧是最近几年国内华语电视剧中最高水平、最优质的作品,TVB的创作部、发行部及制作部还将《叶问》作为其内部参考剧集进行观摩。据悉,除齐鲁台外,国内已有五家卫视及十家地面频道争相与制片方签约、湖南和湖北等地面频道也已安排在近期播出。
Being a person who has high hopes but confused and changing environment, he continues his quest to search for answers. He questions himself, the world, the nation.....and because of him asking questions non stop, seeking for answers, Kevin Cheng has been labeled by netizens as "problematic" grandmaster. Directo Li laughs at their humour and said: "Ip Man faces life with a lot of question to improve. His rustic goodness and adamant of learning martial art led him to become the grandmaster." At the same time, he admitted that it is because of Ip Man's non stop questioning that led TVB's producers to agree that this is highest standard Chinese TV series ever produced in recent years. TVB is using this series as an example for their own future productions. It is understood that apart from Qilu channel, China's 5 other satellite broadcast stations and 10 other TV channels are also fighting for broadcast rights. Hunan and Hubei etc channels has lined up the show to be aired in the very near future.
