Why are there almost no directors filming historical dramas of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty

Because the Han people were suppressed very strongly during the Yuan Dynasty, this was too sensitive, and it would not pass the trial if it was filmed. The Ming Dynasty was a period of too darkness, and the people lived in dire straits most of the time, so there were few subjects that could be filmed.

Let's talk about the Yuan Dynasty first, in my impression, Su Youpeng's version of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" involves the Yuan Dynasty. However, the background at that time was when the Yuan Dynasty was about to be overthrown. We can see from the play that the costumes at that time did not meet the aesthetic standards of modern people.

From a historical point of view, in the Yuan Dynasty, force was actually advocated. Moreover, the history of the Yuan Dynasty has left us with the perception that the army of the Yuan Dynasty was very fierce, and there is no other impression. And most importantly,When the Yuan Dynasty was founded, there were stories of invasions, killings, and conquests of the Central Plains everywhere.

This history is now very sensitive to the Han Chinese. In addition, at that time, the Mongols looked down on the Han people, so this kind of subject matter was absolutely impossible. Therefore, there will be no director touching the subject matter of the Yuan Dynasty.

Let's talk about the Ming Dynasty, in fact, in the early days, there were still some film and television dramas about the Ming Dynasty. But looking back on the past two years, it seems that only the film and television dramas of the Qing Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty remain. The main reason for no longer filming the subject matter of the Ming Dynasty is that in the minds of many people, the Ming Dynasty itself is an era shrouded in darkness.

The boom did not last long, and most of the people were living in extreme poverty. Therefore, if you make a remake based on historical facts, there is basically nothing worth taking. Unlike the Qing Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, after all, they had a period of prosperity, so there are naturally more worthy of remakes.

These directors knew what eras were easier to draw from, so they chose the Qing Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, and gave up the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. This is more likely to be loved by the public and is not prone to error. Therefore, in order for his work to be recognized, the director will definitely not touch some overly sensitive times.

Since it is a historical drama, it cannot escape the historical framework of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, whether we admit it or not, the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty are indeed countries that invade other countries without legitimate reasons.

The reason why almost no directors will make historical dramas of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty is because the historical development of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty is relatively degenerate and declining, and the historical records are not very perfect.

Whether it is the Yuan Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, for the Han people, it is a history of humiliation. The Yuan Dynasty ruled the Han people, did not treat the Han people as human beings, and the Ming Dynasty was destroyed by the Manchus, which is a history of humiliation. That's why Chinese directors rarely shoot Yuan and Ming dramas.

There are too few existing historical materials of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, people do not understand them, and they are easy to detach from history, and they are not as much as the Qing Dynasty archives, so there are more Qing dramas and fewer historical dramas of the Yuan Dynasty and Ming Dynasty.

The Yuan Dynasty was the world of the Mongols and Jurchens, and it had nothing to do with the Han people. In Zhu Yuanzhang's dynasty, the emperor was suspicious, politically corrupt, and the eunuchs were in power, and few actors could handle this kind of deep feeling of the city, and it was also very difficult to pass the trial.

Because the costumes of film and television dramas in the Ming Dynasty were particularly complicated, and they also needed to shave their heads, many actors couldn't do this, so they couldn't shoot this kind of ruined TV series.

Because the costumes of the Ming Dynasty were not very easy to do. Moreover, in history, the Ming Dynasty has also experienced many coups d'état. If you shoot this kind of TV drama, it can be very messy.

Because it is difficult to shoot works in this rising period, there is no way to set off the roles of the actors who regret it, and the ratings are not very high, so few directors shoot them. Birot Wheel.

This is because the development of the Ming Dynasty was relatively chaotic, and then there was also a situation of internal and external troubles for the elder brother, and there were very few directors who filmed TV dramas in the Ming Dynasty.

Now it is not popular to shoot ancient historical dramas, and there are many ancient puppets of Xianxia who are sadomasochistic.

Who said that Chinese directors do not touch the historical dramas of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, this is simply nonsense. Zhu Yuanzhang's TV series has been remade many versions. Zhang Juzheng has also been made into many TV series, which are historical dramas in the Ming Dynasty.

The history of Genghis Khan's fortune has also been made into a lot of film and television works, these are historical dramas of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, how can it be said that Chinese directors did not shoot these two dynasties? The TV series "Daming Fenghua", which is now on the air, is. It tells the history of the entire Ming Dynasty.

Although there are many apocryphal parts, they are basically in line with the main line of the historical development of the Ming Dynasty, and have certain reference significance, which can help many people understand what really happened to the Ming Dynasty.

However, compared with other dynasties, there are indeed fewer historical dramas filmed on these two dynasties. The Tang Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, and the Three Kingdoms era are all recorded in great detail, and there are many literary works to describe these dynasties. One of the reasons why there are few historical dramas filmed in the Ming Dynasty is that the main story line of the Ming Dynasty is too chaotic, and there are no more famous characters.

The Yuan Dynasty was even less likely to write historical works, because it was an era of Mongol rule, not an era of Han rule.

However, this does not prove that the Ming and Yuan dynasties had less influence on the feudal dynasties than other dynasties. These two dynasties but the two dynasties that had the greatest influence on the feudal dynasty, especially the Ming Dynasty, which had the highest centralization of power, had developed to its peak, and Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the prime minister system. The power of the state was all in the hands of the king, and the feudal system developed to a very high level.

The history of the Ming Dynasty is also very exciting. Back then, Mingyue wrote a very popular literary work, those things in the Ming Dynasty. It is very popular in the whole market, there are many fans reading this book, and the Ming Dynasty is gradually becoming known.

It can't be said that Chinese directors don't touch historical dramas with the theme of the Ming Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, but it can only be said that directors in recent years are reluctant to touch historical dramas with the theme of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty.

The reason why I didn't touch the Yuan Dynasty is actually very reasonable, after all, although the Yuan Dynasty ruled China for a while, and even spread all over the Asian continent, but the short-lived Yuan Dynasty is also true, after all, the Yuan Dynasty is a dynasty ruled by the Mongols, and it is true that the language barrier is also true.

The TV series of the Yuan Dynasty that have been filmed in the past are actually not very popular, after all, most of the TV dramas of the Yuan Dynasty are about the process of how some ethnic minorities rise, in this process, although the screenwriter has changed the language to Chinese very carefully, but it still can't satisfy the audience, the audience has no feeling for the TV series of the Yuan Dynasty at all, and they are stunned when they look at it, and sometimes they can't understand what they are talking about.

The biggest reason why the Yuan Dynasty was not filmed is also related to the system implemented by the Mongols in the Yuan Dynasty, although the Yuan Dynasty was very powerful, but the status of the Han people during the Yuan Dynasty was very low, the Han people at that time were just the lowest level of society, the level of oppression, if the screenwriter wanted to shoot a TV series of the Yuan Dynasty, this point must be added, but it must be added to it, so many people gave up.

As a recent dynasty ruled by the Han people, the Ming Dynasty actually had a lot of TV dramas in the past few years, such as "Liu Bowen", "Zheng He Goes to the West", "Wanli Shoufu Zhang Juzheng", "Jinyiwei", "The Great Tomorrow", in fact, if you carefully calculate the TV series of the Ming Dynasty, there are still a lot of TV series, but most of these TV series are relatively old, and the popularity of TV dramas in the Ming Dynasty in recent years is true.

In fact, not only the Ming Dynasty, but also the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, and even the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, and the Two Song Dynasty, there are very few TV series.

This is not because no one is interested in this subject, but because the works on the theme of the Qing Dynasty are too popular.

Whether it is **, or movies, TV series, many Qing Dynasty-themed works are popular, but the works of other dynasties are not popular, especially the success of a series of Qing palace fighting dramas such as "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which completely made Qing Dynasty-themed works popular, and on the contrary, the popularity of TV series with other dynasties is very bleak.

In fact, the reason why the Qing Dynasty palace fighting drama can be successful is inseparable from the era of the Qing Dynasty, the era of the Qing Dynasty is relatively recent, it is easier to choose a good material when selecting materials, and the difficulty of finding the theme is not so great.

And obviously, if in the past, when watching TV was the main entertainment activity, there were still a lot of men watching TV, and now, it is obvious that the audience of TV dramas has gradually become younger and more feminine, and these people have an inexplicable madness about palace fighting dramas.

Data collation and networking, don't spray if you don't like it.

The reason why very few directors will shoot TV series or movies with this kind of theme is because there are very few themes that can be filmed into TV dramas in these dynasties. Everyone must have watched a TV series called Genghis Khan, so such a TV series, in fact, makes people feel a little strange after watching it.

Because the person speaking in this is Genghis Khan, Genghis Khan was a Mongol at the time, but the language used in this TV series is Chinese. After such a TV series was filmed, it was still questioned by many people, first of all, in terms of language, there seems to be a lot of gaps between everyone.

Then there is another key reason, that is, if you want to shoot a TV series with the theme of the Yuan Dynasty, you will face a lot of difficulties in mastering the language and character names. In fact, the names of the Mongols at that time were relatively long, and it was still difficult to remember the name of every emperor or person with high fame among the Mongols.

Then one of the most critical reasons is that at that time in the Yuan Dynasty, the change of dynasties was relatively fast. The gradual change of each dynasty will also make this emperor, the dynasty he ruled, relatively few things that can be recorded, and there is a lack of such themes, so they will hardly be filmed into TV series. In fact, the Ming Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty have a key reason, that is, there is almost no subject matter that can be filmed.

Because the Yuan Dynasty existed for a relatively short time in history, there are relatively few historical descriptions of the Yuan Dynasty, while there were more political events in the Ming Dynasty, and there were fewer love between men and women in the palace, so Chinese directors almost never touched the historical dramas of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. During the reign of the Yuan Dynasty, because of ethnic discrimination, the Han people during the Yuan Dynasty had no status. Moreover, the Yuan Dynasty at that time directly divided people into three, six, nine and so on, while the Han people were the lowest.

Therefore, in the society of the Yuan Dynasty, the status of the Han people was very low, so the Han people were not interested in the history of the Yuan Dynasty, coupled with the relatively short existence of the Yuan Dynasty and the serious Mongolian characteristics, the Han people actually had no good impression of the Yuan Dynasty.

During the Ming Dynasty, because there were more political events at that time, there were fewer love and hatred between the royal family, for directors, for the sake of ratings, many directors would choose to shoot what the audience was more interested in, so directors would shoot fewer historical dramas of the Ming Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty is still relatively close to modern people, and at the same time, the emperors of the Qing Dynasty are famous for their infatuation.

Most of the Qing court dramas are about the love and hatred between the emperor and the royal family, and they are also loved by the audience. For directors, for the sake of ratings, they will definitely choose what the audience likes and caters to the audience's tastes. The Ming Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty are still relatively far away from modern people, and there are no major events in history that can be remembered.

The emperors of the Qing Dynasty were different, the emperors of the Qing Dynasty preferred to leave the palace to go out to play, which allowed the emperor to have a lot of folk tales, and at the same time was able to shorten the distance with the people. Moreover, there are many folk rumors about the emperor, which is very popular with the audience. At the same time, several of the Qing Dynasty emperors in history are infatuated, for the audience, in the case of three thousand beauties in the harem, the emperor can still be so infatuated, which is also admired and loved by the audience, and at the same time, it is also yearning.

This should be because there are not many screenwriters who write about these dynasties, or it may be that the history of the Yuan and Ming dynasties is not as attractive as the Qing Dynasty.

The main reason is that the history of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty is relatively small, and the language of the shooting is more troublesome.

Because the politics of these two dynasties are actually relatively dark, but there are many works from this period now.

Because there is no good subject matter, and it is not very easy to shoot because a few famous people are in power.

I think there are more big things happening in other dynasties, which attract the attention of the audience more.

Why do Chinese directors almost never make historical dramas of the Yuan Dynasty and Ming Dynasty? It turns out that this is the truth.

Why don't Chinese directors make historical dramas about the Ming and Yuan dynasties?

It may be that most people don't pay much attention to these two dynasties.
